Before Xu Chang could finish his sentence, Wang Bing hastily bowed. “Thank you, Director Xu. I’ll prepare diligently. Thank you so much! Thank you!”

Xu Chang, feeling a bit awkward, observed her excitement and gently touched the back of his head. “Alright, go get ready. I’ll inform Sister Wang about the audition in a few days.”

Turning to Wen Nian, he continued, “We won’t be able to complete the post-production today. How about I send it to you when it’s ready? After all, you’re planning to take a seven-day break, right?”

Wen Nian had originally come to the studio today to explore the possibility of contacting Wang Bing. Now that everything was settled, she had no reason to stay. She left the studio alongside Wang Bing.

“Could I add you on WeChat?” Wang Bing asked cautiously. “1 don’t have any ulterior motives, 1 promise. I’m genuinely grateful to you, and I’d like to be friends. 1 won’t use our connection to gain attention, and 1 definitely won’t disrupt your studies.”

In her previous life, Wen Nian had regarded Wang Bing as a major celebrity. It was amusing to see her being so cautious now.

However, she smiled warmly and agreed, “Of course, add me. I think we get along well.”

As they exchanged WeChat information, the elevator reached the ground floor. Just as they were about to step out, they heard a voice that made Wen Nian cringe.

“Wen Nian! Are you also here to see Director Xu today?” Huang Yue was decked out in a flashy designer suit with a prominent logo, giving off a nouveau riche vibe.

Huang Yue couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled when she noticed that Wen Nian seemed perfectly fine and there was no sign of distress in her expression.

The previous day, Wen Nian had anticipated that Shen Jun would come back to find her, but he didn’t, and Director Wu remained unreachable. She inquired around Chuan Liu Clubhouse, but heard nothing unusual. It seemed Director Wu’s plan hadn’t succeeded.

Huang Yue felt somewhat indignant, but she managed to force a smile. “Didn’t we agree yesterday? You introduced me to Director Xu. Since we’ve crossed paths today, can you help me out? Let’s go up together, okay?”

As she spoke, she tried to link her arm with Wen Nian’s, but Wen Nian smoothly sidestepped her.

Wen Nian responded with a cold tone, “1 made it clear yesterday that I won’t introduce you. At most, 1 can mention that you’re interested in working with Director Xu.”

Huang Yue felt a bit uncomfortable. She glanced at Wang Bing standing beside her and furrowed her brow. Could it be that Wang Bing was here to request a role as well?

Only a select few were privy to the fact that Director Xu was gearing up for a new movie. When Huang Yue arrived at the set recommended by Director Wu, she had only learned about it through casual conversation.

She had assumed that Wen Nian’s reputation would be tarnished after yesterday’s incident and that the truth would eventually come to light. So, she decided to use her connections to reach out to Director Xu early, hoping to secure a role in the film. However, she hadn’t expected to find Wen Nian completely unscathed.

She tried her best to squeeze out a smile. “Could you lend me a hand, please? You know, considering our past relationship? Besides, I’m sure you don’t know yet—I’ve already secured the second female lead in ‘Immortal Wonderland’. Once 1 become more well-known, I might even make Director Xu’s movie even more popular.”

Upon mentioning this, Huang Yue sneakily glanced at Wang Bing out of the corner of her eye. As expected, she noticed the discomfort in Wang Bing’s expression.

Huang Yue had been aware for some time that Wang Bing had coveted the same role in the drama—Director Wu had revealed Wang Bing’s interest to her. However, Huang Yue had acted swiftly and secured the part first.

Upon hearing the drama’s title, Wen Nian’s demeanor soured. In her previous life, Wu Gang had given her this role in the “Immortal Lover.” Considering the events of yesterday, she couldn’t help but suspect that Huang Yue was somehow connected to what had happened yesterday.

“I have no connection with you. Excuse me, but I’m leaving,” Wen Nian declared in a chilly tone.

This time, Huang Yue did not go forward to stop her. She believed that Wen Nian’s arrogance wouldn’t last long after upsetting Director Wu. As for Wang Bing, standing beside her, she considered her conquered and not worthy of her attention.

As they exited the office building, Wen Nian was about to bid farewell when Wang Bing gently tugged her back. “Wen Nian, there’s something I want to warn you about.”

Wen Nian halted in her tracks upon hearing Wang Bing’s words. In her previous life, Wang Bing had uttered a similar warning. Back then, Wen Nian had dismissed it, assuming Wang Bing was merely envious of her youth and beauty.

Now, as she looked at Wang Bing’s unchanged cold expression, Wen Nian could discern genuine concern in her eyes.

“Huang Yue’s role… wasn’t obtained through legitimate means,” Wang Bing attempted to choose her words carefully, not wanting to frighten the young girl before her.

“She likely secured her position through Director Wu’s connections. If you ever encounter Wu Gang in the future, be cautious and avoid being alone with him.” Although Wang Bing’s words sounded a little strange, Wen Nian understood.

She nodded at Wang Bing and watched as Wang Bing smiled and waved goodbye to her. Wen Nian took a deep breath. Indeed, everything in this life was different..
