"Where are you?" Ji Lanfeng asked on the phone. "I have a friend who is a director, and he wants to meet you."
"Now?"
"Yes," Ji Lanfeng replied, then lowered his voice and said softly, "He saw 'Star Voyage Crossing' and really admired your skills. There's a new drama about to start filming, and he wants you to audition."
"Okay, send me the address. I'll be there now," Meng Jingwei nodded.
Qing Muye had even announced their 'divorce' to the public just so she could enter the entertainment industry. She couldn't let Qing Muye's good intentions go to waste.
After hanging up, Meng Jingwei looked at Shen Liannuo, her eyes lighting up. "Liannuo, aren't you bored? Come on, I'll take you out."
"Really?" Shen Liannuo turned back, a pleased expression on her face.
Meng Jingwei raised a hand and touched her forehead, awkwardly pointing at the spicy strips in her hand. "Can you throw that away? The smell is quite strong."
She was going for an audition, and it was a good opportunity to bring Shen Liannuo along for some fun.
It was just that Shen Liannuo had been eating spicy strips continuously, and the smell was indeed overwhelming.
"Of course, no problem."
Shen Liannuo made an 'ok' gesture and walked towards the trash can, but she finished the last spicy strip before dropping the empty wrapper into the bin.
Meng Jingwei looked at Qing Muye, and they exchanged a smile.
"Song Jun, our Lan Cheng has so much delicious food, can you take her to try something else?" Meng Jingwei looked at the man standing ramrod straight. "Eating too many spicy strips isn't good for your health."
Song Jun spread his hands. "I took her to eat delicacies, but she said she didn't like them. So I took her to the snack street, and now every evening she goes to the snack street at a fixed time, with skewers in her left hand and milk tea in her right."
Saying this, Song Jun shrugged. "What can I do?"
"Uh... alright."
Meng Jingwei was speechless. "Then you and Ah Ye go and help look for Shi Ran. I'll take care of accompanying Shen Liannuo today."
"Understood, young madam," Song Jun nodded in agreement.
"Bye." Meng Jingwei waved goodbye to Qing Muye. "Fengzi is calling me for an audition. I don't know if it will be successful."
The man stepped forward and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "I believe in you."
"Mm, I'll try my best to succeed."
Meng Jingwei left, beckoning to Shen Liannuo. She went to the garage and drove out her red Chevrolet.
The Chevrolet sedan, worth a little over 100,000 yuan, was parked in the villa's spacious garage amongst a host of luxury cars, looking out of place.
But this was the first car Meng Jingwei bought for herself, and she was reluctant to part with it, so she kept it.
Given their current 'divorced' status, it was quite fitting for Meng Jingwei to drive a car worth over 100,000 yuan.
The sedan pulled away from the villa and headed straight for the film and television media company.
On the way, Shen Liannuo asked why they had a fake divorce, and Meng Jingwei had to explain it to her.
As a result, Shen Liannuo's face immediately fell. "I'm really a chatterbox. Why did I have to ask?"
She covered her chest with her hand. "I'm so fed up with you guys showing off your affection every day. I'm both jealous and envious. Ah, it's so annoying."
"You are also very outstanding. One day, you will also find your Mr. Right," Meng Jingwei said sincerely.
"I only like perfect men like my master. Can I find one?"
"It depends on fate."
"Not likely." Shen Liannuo propped her elbows on the car window, resting her chin on her hands, and sighed deeply. "When I was in the Hidden Clan, I was married to two or three husbands. But all of them combined were not even one-tenth of my master."
"Now that you're in Lan Cheng, don't you miss your husbands?" Meng Jingwei asked curiously.
Shen Liannuo waved her slender fingers. "Two of the three were forced on me by my mother, just to win favor with some elder clans. Only one was my first love, but our relationship gradually faded."
