The next day, the sky was gloomy and looked like it was about to rain.

“Baby, don’t go to the production team today. I’ll help you apply for leave.” Jun Shiling lowered his head and kissed Xia Wanyuan’s hair.

“No.” Xia Wanyuan did not sleep well and looked a little tired. “I’m going to the audition today. Help me put on my clothes.”

“Alright, then I’ll pick you up after your audition.” Jun Shiling could only take Xia Wanyuan’s clothes and help her wear them slowly.

At the entrance of the production team, Su Yueran was dressed in a white robe with a few red plums embroidered on the sides. Standing under the eaves, she subconsciously made the entire eaves seem to be tainted with the faint fragrance of the plum blossoms.

Not far away, a car slowly drove over. Su Yueran looked up with watery eyes.

Xia Wanyuan looked at Su Yueran outside the window and suddenly pushed Jun Shiling. “Look outside.”

Jun Shiling looked out and was confused. “What’s wrong? Do you want to eat fried potatoes? No, that’s not healthy.”

“…” Xia Wanyuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “I’m asking you to see if Su Yueran is beautiful.”

Jun Shiling commented objectively, “Not bad. She’s considered a beauty in the eyes of the public.”

“Then what about your aesthetic standards?” Xia Wanyuan was playful and insisted on asking Jun Shiling.

“…” Jun Shiling glanced at her and could not be bothered to answer this question.

“I’m asking you, are you feeling guilty?” Xia Wanyuan sighed. “Sigh, as expected, once a man succeeds in his goal, he becomes perfunctory.”

Jun Shiling watched Xia Wanyuan act from the side. “My aesthetic taste is you. Are you happy?”

“What sweet words.” Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow.

Jun Shiling simply threw away the document and pinched Xia Wanyuan into his arms, scratching her waist. He knew that Xia Wanyuan was most ticklish. “You’re doing this on purpose, right?”

Xia Wanyuan hurriedly begged for mercy. “I was wrong, I was wrong.”

Su Yueran stood and waited for a long time before the car door in front of her opened. Xia Wanyuan walked out with a smile and waved at the car before walking towards Su Yueran.

“Miss Xia.” Su Yueran nodded slightly at Xia Wanyuan. “We can go over now.”

“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan stopped smiling and went to the hotel where Director Charon was staying with Su Yueran.

The sky became darker and darker, as if it was about to rain. The pedestrians on the road walked hurriedly, wanting to find a place to hide.

Outside the film studio building, there was a long line.

“Hey, hey, hey, young lady, how’s the situation? Did you pass?” Everyone was waiting anxiously when they suddenly saw a young lady walk out of the building. They hurriedly pulled her and asked.

The little girl looked up, and everyone’s eyes lit up. Wow, what a beautiful little girl. 

The little girl had exquisite facial features on her oval face. Her big eyes seemed to be untainted by dust as they blinked as if they could speak.

The moment the young lady spoke, her voice was crisp and sweet, filled with vigor. “No, the interviewer said that I don’t even know how to match my own clothes. I don’t look like I’m made for the film industry.”

“…” Only then did everyone notice her clothes. They were not old-fashioned. She was wearing a white down jacket, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sneakers. It was the standard outfit for young people. However, compared to the candidates in the line who were still bare-legged and wearing high heels, she indeed looked too student-like.

“It’s nothing! I can still look for more.” The little girl’s eyes were like crescents when she smiled. Her eyes were filled with the clear water by the stream. “You have to work hard and try to find a job early!”

“Hey, good luck.” Everyone was a little surprised. After all, coldness had become the norm in this city. Everyone’s hearts warmed when they were suddenly encouraged by a stranger with such a sweet voice.

Lu Li turned to look at the tall film center with some regret in her eyes, but in the end, she turned and left.

“When can I find a job?” Although she had come to try with a smile, she was still a little disappointed after being fiercely criticized by that interviewer for nearly five minutes.

Lu Li took out her phone and calculated. She still had 15,000 yuan in savings. If she gave her grandparents back 10,000 yuan, she would have 10,000 yuan left. After deducting her monthly living expenses, she would pay 4,000 yuan in rent for a quarter. Then, she would have no money.

If she still could not find a job, she would really have to live in the bridge hole.

“Guan Yin Bodhisattva, please bless me and let me find a job as soon as possible.” Lu Li pressed her palms together and muttered piously.

“Meow.” A cat suddenly meowed in the grass beside her. Lu Li turned around and saw a dirty and thin cat. It looked like it had been hungry for a long time and was very pitiful.

Lu Li took out a ham sausage from her backpack, pinched off a small section, and broke off a little steamed bun for it. However, the kitten crawled out of the grass from the other side.

Lu Li could only pick up the steamed bun and ham and follow it around. Finally, she threw the thing in front of it and the kitten ate it in small bites.

After failing the interview, Lu Li did not find a job. Since she was free, she squatted at the side and watched the kitten eat.

“You look like my grandmother’s little cat,” Lu Li said with a sad look in her eyes. She missed her grandparents and the birds, cows, and cats in Green Mountain Village. She missed the food at home.

However, her grandparents had finally raised her until she graduated from university. She had wanted to bring them to Beijing to see the square and the Forbidden City Museum, but she had not even found a job. She did not know when her wish would be fulfilled.

In the car, Su Yueran and Xia Wanyuan were sitting side by side. She turned around. “Miss Xia, do you mind if I eat some sandwiches? I didn’t eat in the morning.”

“I don’t mind.”

Su Yueran took out a sandwich and ate it in small bites. The heater was turned on in the car, so the air was not easy to circulate. There was a faint fragrance of meat lingering in the car.

At this moment, the car suddenly jolted. The sandwich in Su Yueran’s hand fell and spilled on Xia Wanyuan’s shoes.

“I’m sorry, ladies. There was a speed bump on the road just now.” The chauffeur hurriedly apologized.

“I’m fine.” Xia Wanyuan looked down. Although there were some crumbs on her shoes, fortunately, she was wearing leather shoes today. She would be fine after wiping them.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t hold it properly. I’ll wipe it for you,” Su Yueran said as she took out a tissue from her bag and lowered her head to wipe it for Xia Wanyuan.

“Alright.” To Su Yueran’s surprise, Xia Wanyuan did not decline at all. She sat leisurely in her seat and waited for Su Yueran to wipe her shoes.

Su Yueran tightened her grip on the tissue in her hand and wiped Xia Wanyuan’s shoes clean. “Alright, I’m really sorry.”

“It’s okay. Just wipe it clean.” Just as Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, the car stopped.

The chauffeur got out of the car and checked. “There’s something wrong with the tires. If the two ladies are in a hurry, why don’t you call a taxi first? It’s the peak period now. It’ll probably be too late when the tow truck comes.”

Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow. This morning is rather eventful. “Okay, let’s take a taxi ourselves.”

With that, Xia Wanyuan and Su Yueran got out of the car.
