Thank you readers!

Soon, it was time for the performance at the grand theater. Fortunately, the guests were very calm on the stage and did not make any mistakes. Therefore, after the performance ended, it also received unanimous praise from the audience.

Furthermore, after the livestream and the incident in the dressing room, Xi Wan’s popularity had risen to another level.

On the contrary, Wu Xuan’s popularity had declined.

Xi Wan turned on her cell phone on the way back and an unfamiliar friend suddenly popped up in her friend request. Her nickname was ‘A Boat Has Passed Ten Thousand Mountains’.

“Who is this person?”

The system took a look and said: [This person is a good friend of the female protagonist. Her name is Lu Zhou.]

“Lu Zhou? I’ve never heard of this name before.’

[Of course you haven’t heard of her. She’s a novel writer. She would usually use a pen name to meet the public and she don’t use her real name. Her brother is the former top actor, Lu Ting. At the same time, Lu Ting is also the third male protagonist in this novel. After winning the last award a few years ago, he retired from the entertainment industry completely. He’s similar to you. He changed careers but he changed careers to become a director instead.]

“The third male protagonist, director…” Xi Wan strung these two keywords together and said, “Many of Zhao Fei’s later films should be directed by Lu Ting, right?”

[How did you know? I didn’t tell you anything.]

“With these two identities, anyone who isn’t a fool can guess the future development of the plot.” Xi Wan said, “With Lu Ting’s status and background, Zhao Fei will probably be unable to become the top actress in the entertainment industry in the future without his help.”

[It’s like this. In fact, it’s not just him. It’s the same for Lu Zhou. She is a novelist but in the later stages, she even tailored a drama for Zhao Fei. The female protagonist became the top actress because of this drama.]

“The Lu siblings are so willing to pave the way for Zhao Fei so if she doesn’t produce some results in the end, she will really be letting them down.” Xi Wan said as she accepted the friend request.

The other party immediately sent a message, “Have you ever thought about returning to the entertainment industry?”

“No.” Xi Wan replied quickly.

The other party was a little unwilling and continued to ask, “Why?”

Xi Wan replied, “Because I’ve loved unrestrained freedom my whole life.”

After sending this message, the other party only replied with an ellipsis.

Lu Zhou did not know how to reply to this message.

She was sitting in Lu Ting’s office, lying on the comfortable sofa. Lu Zhou’s eyes lit up. “Brother, I have a friend. She added a friend and asked some questions but the other party replied with ‘unrestrained and freedom’. What do you think she meant by that? Is it acquiescence or has she given up completely?”

Lu Ting did not even look at Lu Zhou as he said, “I told you long ago not to think of such a method to strike up a conversation with Xi Wan.”

Lu Ting found a way to get Xi Wan’s contact information for Lu Zhou, so Lu Zhou could not hide it from Lu Ting.

Lu Zhou felt uncomfortable. She grabbed the pillow on the sofa and threw it at Lu Ting. “Why are you so annoying?”

Lu Zhou was also present at the previous auction. At that time, she felt that Xi Wan’s way of handling things was very cool and decisive.

If the person you hate the most is putting on a show in front of you and trying to make everyone sympathize with her, but you slap her in the face fiercely, and can still stand by and watch the show. How could such a feeling simply be described as satisfying?

At the same time, Xi Wan’s image as a ruthless, decisive, and cool woman occupied a deep place in Lu Zhou’s heart. Therefore, she asked Lu Ting to get Xi Wan’s contact information.

After Lu Zhou added Xi Wan as a friend, she tried to find some common topics with her. However, after much deliberation, she could only talk to her about the entertainment industry.

Moreover, if Xi Wan really wanted to return to the entertainment industry, she and Lu Ting could pave the way for her.

However, she did not expect Xi Wan to be so unpredictable. She did not reply to any of her messages after that. She did not even ask for Lu Zhou’s name.

“Why didn’t she reply to my messages?” The more Lu Zhou thought about it, the more confused she was. She looked at Lu Ting and said, “Do you think she’s deliberately making me wait?”

Lu Ting was finally willing to look at Lu Zhou, but his words were a little hurtful. “Don’t say that you’re my sister when you go out in the future. It’s a little embarrassing..”
