Lin Xiaowan was not wearing her slippers so Huo Zheng asked her to step on his feet. She said, “Does it hurt? It’s fine to stand on the floor. It’s warm since there’s heating.”

“It’s fine,” Huo Zheng said, “You’re very light anyway. You need to eat more.”

Lin Xiaowan laughed. ”1 want to eat cake!”

“Alright.”

There were still a few roles that had yet to be cast in the fantasy drama. The production team was going to hold an audition so Gu Yuwu asked if Lin Xiaowan wanted to come and have a look. With this, Lin Xiaowan could also familiarize herself a little.

After agreeing, Lin Xiaowan recalled that Huo Zheng said friends could show their vulnerabilities to each other so she said to Gu Yuwu, “I don’t have any experience in acting at all, and there are many people in the production team. I’m a little nervous.”

“It’s okay. Don’t feel too burdened. You just need to have fun,” Gu Yuwu said reassuringly, “Moreover, so what if you can’t act well? There are many celebrities who can’t act as well. If it really doesn’t work, you can just quit. It’s not a big deal. Don’t be afraid.”

Gu Yuwu spoke very nonchalantly as though this was really a trivial matter. For this reason, Lin Xiaowan felt much more at ease after listening to Gu Yuwu.

There were many people at the audition.

Lin Xiaowan followed Gu Yuwu into the audition room, and Gu Yuwu introduced her to a few people. Gu Yuwu told everyone that she was her sister and asked them to take care of her.

Lin Xiaowan stood quietly next to Gu Yuwu and smiled. She was still very nervous even though everyone looked at her kindly. Fortunately, the audition started very quickly, and everyone’s attention was focused on the audition. With this, she was able to relax a little.

The main leads and important supporting roles had already been decided so the audition today was mostly for minor roles with a few scenes.

Lin Xiaowan did not know most people who came, and she only recognized a few of them, but she could not recall their names.

As she continued to watch the audition, Lin Xiaowan also deeply understood the difference in acting skills in the entertainment industry. There were people who could not act at all. When she watched an awkward performance that made people cringe, she even arrogantly felt that she could do better.

Naturally, there were also those who acted very well. After their introductions, they seemed to change into another person as they got into character. Their acting was extremely convincing. Although there were many people in the room staring at them and whispering, they could ignore the distraction and focus on acting.

Lin Xiaowan really admired these people a lot.

“What do you think?” Gu Yuwu asked.

“It’s really interesting,” Lin Xiaowan replied.

At this time, the audition was almost coming to an end so there were not many people left.

Gu Yuwu said, “I’ll get a copy of the script from the scriptwriter later. I’ll show the goddess’ scenes. When you go back, you can slowly go over them first.” Lin Xiaowan’s eyes lit up when she heard this. “Okay!”

Gu Yuwu cleared her throat and said, “However, there’s something I need to tell you in advance. There’s a reason why I said it’s fine even if you don’t memorize your lines…”

Despite the weak and young appearance of the goddess in the drama, her personality was aloof and arrogant. After all, she possessed supreme divine power. It was due to a curse that she had fallen to such a state and regressed to the appearance of a young girl.

Lin Xiaowan’s voice was too soft and did not fit the character. For this reason, Gu Yuwu suggested dubbing.

Lin Xiaowan did not mind it at all. “Okay!”

After the audition ended, the director walked over with the script and said, “Young goddess, you have to visit us often!”

“Eh? You know that I’m playing the role of the goddess?”

The director said with a smile, “Of course. President Gu told us long ago that her younger sister will be playing the role of the goddess.”

“This… Does this mean that everyone here knows about it as well?”

“Almost everyone knows…”

Lin Xiaowan was stunned. When she had met the production team, she assumed that they did not know her. After a moment, she frowned in confusion and asked, “President Gu? Who’s that?”

Gu Yuwu raised her hand and said, “It’s me.”

“Why do they call you President Gu?”

Gu Yuwu smiled and said, “Because I’m an investor.”

Not only was Gu Yuwu an investor, but she was also the producer. She had the most say in the entire production team.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaowan felt as though she had found herself an extremely powerful backer.

‘How amazing!’

Following that, they studied the roles of the goddess.

The goddess appeared very early in the drama, but she only existed in other people’s words and memories. She was extremely feudal, selfish, and had double standards. She would convince others to do things that were not right for the sake of the world and encouraged them to sacrifice themselves meaninglessly to help others.

The source of her curse, which caused her pain, was an immortal who had fallen into the abyss of the demon world because of her.

The immortal’s lover was a very rabbit demon. The demon was captured by the goddess to ensure that the divine realm was not contaminated by the outside world. The demon was then sent to a place called the Twilight of Immortals to be cleansed of her demonic power for 4.9 days before she could be reunited with her lover. As a demon, one could imagine how painful the cleansing process was.

Apart from that, the goddess also imprisoned the immortal in a divine realm for violating the divine rule. He was soaked in a liquid that corroded his divine power every day, and it was extremely difficult to leave this place. When he finally escaped, he risked his life to save his lover. Alas, when he found his lover, she had been tortured to the brink of death. When she saw him, before her soul scattered, she only said, “I hate you.”

Following that, the immortal sacrificed his divine power to place a curse on the goddess before he fell to the demon world with great hatred.

Meanwhile, the goddess did not think that she did anything wrong at all. She felt that her actions were for the couple’s own good. When she saw that the immortal had turned demonic, she only said disdainfully, “Fool.”

The only time the goddess appeared outside of people’s words and memories in the drama was close to the finale. The protagonists had something to ask of her so they went to meet her. The goddess could perceive everything in the world and knew their intentions so she said some arrogant words to dissuade them.

The protagonists were strong and tenacious, after all. How could they be persuaded by her? It was only normal that they completely ignored her..
