“Alright,” Bai Lian said nonchalantly, “I’ll come to you tonight and teach you the last trick.”

“Thank you.” Yan Lu looked at Bai Lian very earnestly.

While they were talking.

Jiang Fulai was standing at the entrance waiting for Bai Lian; he had one hand holding car keys and the other in his trench coat pocket, backlighting him and making his figure blurred and indifferent.

“Why are you always looking at Mr. Jiang?” Zhang’s mother nudged Zhang’s father.

Zhang’s father came to his senses, “How much money do we have in the family? Let’s hurry up and buy a couple more apartments in Xiangcheng.”

He suddenly said.

Zhang’s mother:

Wednesday.

Yan Lu auditioned for the lead female role in “Great Yong.”

The audition was held in a residential area by the city gate of Xiangcheng.

There were quite a few celebrities rushing to Xiangcheng these days, and with various leaks online, Xiangcheng had a minor surge of fame on the internet.

Yan Lu was number 32.

When Bai Lian arrived, it still wasn’t her turn.

There were still about a dozen artists waiting for the interview in the yard.

“Miss Bai,” Sister Xin tried to relax Yan Lu and was very surprised to see Bai Lian coming over.

Bai Lian leisurely took out a black face mask and put it on, revealing only a pair of dark eyes.

She was still wearing a school uniform, and some people’s presence is undeniable even with a mask. Being tall, she was quite noticeable among the group.

Many couldn’t help but size her up.

In a school uniform and unrecognized, she must be a newcomer.

The entertainment industry is realistic; people who are not famous often get ignored.

They quickly averted their eyes.

Bai Lian didn’t care about the looks of others, listening to vocabulary on her headphones while opening her phone.

Teacher Jiang: [How much longer for her?]

Bai Lian had left him outside in the car, mainly because she wasn’t sure if the auditions could proceed normally if he came in. She leisurely replied—

[Three more ahead].

Teacher Jiang, as the biggest investor: [Oh].

Another nanny van stopped outside the courtyard.

The car door opened automatically, and everyone looked that way.

A tall girl in a purple and white cardigan appeared, wearing sunglasses and a black cap, exposing only her chin and slightly red lips.

“Ah, Teacher Man Xi!”

“Teacher Man Xi is here!”

The previously languid artists perked up, one by one greeting Man Xi as she came closer.

Man Xi had a hit with a fantasy series at the beginning of the year.

She had already become a top female star!

Now as the leading lady of Time Entertainment, all the company’s resources revolved around Man Xi, with her fans spread all over the country, and she was showing signs of becoming a top-tier celebrity.

If she could secure the lead female role in “Great Yong” this time, as long as Man Xi’s acting wasn’t poor, becoming a top-tier celebrity was within reach.

After all, the role of Miss Bai she would be playing is already top-tier in history circles!

As long as she performs well, with the fans’ filter for Miss Bai, it might secure Man Xi’s career for life.

“Sorry, Man Xi is in a rush,” Man Xi’s agent and assistant, smiling, shielded her from others, “We have to hurry back to Beicheng after the audition to join the recording of ‘Perfect Day.’”

“Perfect Day,” the hottest variety show at the moment.

Worthy of being Time Entertainment’s leading lady.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Man Xi and her agent didn’t even glance at Yan Lu and the others; they didn’t stop for a second.

“Hey, you’ve arrived,” the assistant director personally came out to greet them, chuckling, “We’ve been waiting for you. We were just praising to the director how well Man Xi has practiced with the spear, go show him…”

After the group went inside.

“No wonder it’s Man Xi, even the assistant director personally came out to receive her.”

“She even practiced the long spear, this time the female lead is definitely hers…”

The others discussed in low voices.

Bai Lian finally looked up, puzzled as she looked towards Sister Xin, “She doesn’t queue?”

Sister Xin hadn’t had the chance to speak when from the side, a young man glanced at Bai Lian, “Does a top actress like Man Xi need to queue?”

“Yan Lu,” Bai Lian clenched her phone, and spoke to her slowly and deliberately, “If you can’t even surpass her, I will have Chi Lu sue you.”

Yan Lu:

After Man Xi went in, she didn’t come out for twenty minutes.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Sister Xin’s expression wasn’t great either. Normally actors would be out in less than five minutes. Staying this long, the directorial team must be very satisfied with Man Xi.

Nearly half an hour.

Only then did Man Xi come out, and the person escorting her was not only the assistant director but also the director.

The group left amidst laughter and conversation.

The expressions on the faces of the few female artists waiting outside were very unpleasant. Most of them had been waiting since the morning, and in the morning there were also two top female artists, even including a Best Actress, but the director had not personally escorted them out.

The “Great Yong” directorial team was really very satisfied with Man Xi!

As Man Xi passed Yan Lu, she glanced at her from the corner of her eye, and her gaze lingered on Bai Lian’s face for less than half a second before withdrawing indifferently and getting back into her car.

The directorial team escorted Man Xi to the car.

The assistant director, looking at the few remaining female artists, suddenly asked, “Do we still need screen tests?”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the artists awaiting their screen tests changed.

Sister Xin couldn’t help but tightly grasp Yan Lu’s collar.

The director didn’t seem to want to continue, but after some thought, he casually waved, “Continue watching.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

But with Man Xi’s especially stunning performance earlier, they didn’t look forward to the following auditions.

After the next three actresses went in for their screen tests, they all came out in less than three minutes.

Until Yan Lu went in.

The director didn’t speak, and the assistant director casually waved, “Just sit at that table and brew a pot of tea.”

Yan Lu looked at the only table there, with a teapot and cups on it. All her movements had been guided by Bai Lian, and for the past two weeks her daily life had revolved around mimicking “Great Yong.”

She picked up the tea grinder, her movements skillfully crushing the tea leaves.

Clean and sharp.

The assistant director, who had been casually watching, suddenly sat up straight upon seeing her movements.

He and the director exchanged glances; surprise and admiration were both evident in their eyes.

By the time Yan Lu finished performing, the director’s expression had turned serious. He looked at Yan Lu curiously, “Have you studied ‘Great Yong’ culture?”

Yan Lu replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, “I’ve been studying it recently.”

The director carefully watched her, and in Yan Lu’s every gesture there was an ancient charm. He nodded to himself in approval, then felt a sense of regret.

Yan Lu’s manners were better than Man Xi’s. Had it not been for Man Xi, he would certainly have chosen Yan Lu for the female lead. Unfortunately, Man Xi’s spearplay had made a deeper impression.

Their production team wanted to stick closely to history, and if the spear was not wielded well, the audience would certainly not be convinced. If only these two could combine their strengths.

Thinking this, the director sighed. He casually asked, “Do you know how to use the spear?”

He was not hopeful.

Nowadays, the young generation of actors in the entertainment industry had no dan actresses skilled in martial roles, and most didn’t even know basic stage movements, unable to bear even the slightest hardship.

During so many auditions, he had asked everyone the same question, and only Man Xi had handled the spear well.

“I do.”

“What?” The director and the assistant director sharply looked up, exchanging glances before staring intently at Yan Lu. The assistant director asked, “What spear technique do you know? Do you know how to thrust straight ahead?”

Yan Lu’s thoughts went back to the evening after she had finished watching Zhang Shize.

Bai Lian came to the Zhang Family to find her.

The other party was dressed in green clothes and a white skirt, her profile bathed in the glow of sunset, her eyes sharper than Yan Lu had ever seen.

She held a long spear in her hand, her eyebrows like frost, languid yet casual, “Everyone knows that the Bai Family army was most famous for their ‘returning horse spear’ because in the end, when the Bai Family army had no reinforcements, the ‘returning horse spear’ was a move to turn defeat into victory. Every one of them knew it. So, Yan Lu, today I’ll teach you the final technique”

Yan Lu looked up, her gaze firm as she spoke word by word to the director and the assistant director: “Returning horse spear!”
