Chapter 544: 255 Assault (first update)
During the few seconds of waiting with the “beep-beep” sound, Lan Huixin swallowed nervously. The cars on the road were rushing past, and the noise was endless, but she could clearly hear her own heartbeat.
“Hello?” A lazy and deep voice came from the phone, ambiguous and mysterious. Lan Huixin unconsciously tightened her grip on the phone.
“Hello, is this Mr. Qing? My name is Lan Huixin. Ming Jing introduced me to you.”
Just a few words made her break out in a sweat.
“Oh, it’s Little Lan, Ming Jing mentioned you. You’re a third-year student at the Film Academy, right?”
“Yes.” Lan Huixin was slightly excited, knowing Ming Jing had mentioned her.
“Are you in Jingzhou now?”
“Yes.”
“I’ll send you an email address. Later, send your resume to this email. Ming Jing’s recommendation won’t be wrong. I have a meeting now, and we can talk later.” The person on the phone hung up after he finished speaking.
From the voice, this was a decisive and determined person, with a pleasant voice.
Not wanting to delay, Lan Huixin rushed back to her dormitory.
Li Tingting was doing a live stream. When she saw Lan Huixin come back, she smiled at her phone and said, “That’s it for today, everyone. See you tomorrow at the same time. Bye-bye, love you all.” She blew a greasy kiss and then turned off the live stream.
Lan Huixin didn’t pay attention to her and went straight to her own seat, opened her computer, and started to polish her resume.
Li Tingting glanced at her, “Huixin, you’re not still mad at me, are you? Actually, I was also deceived by Senior Han. If I had known, I definitely would not have let you go.”
From beginning to end, the whole thing was mysterious. How did Lan Huixin escape? Han Yue was arrested, and Li Tingting didn’t dare to ask the police. This case wasn’t that serious at first, but somehow it got connected to Liang Yanran’s death, causing panic. She was on pins and needles every day, fearing that the police would come to her door.
Fortunately, she was cautious and chose an isolated place to meet with Senior Han. In the past few days, she had been nervous, afraid that Han Yue would betray her. Later, she figured that what she did was nothing compared to what Han Yue had done. Even if the police came for her, she had a reason to get away with it.
Lan Huixin, without looking up, said, “Your line delivery lacks emotion, and it’s way too artificial. Our acting teacher has mentioned this problem of yours several times, but you never change. When acting, you must immerse yourself in the role and focus solely on it to be able to resonate with the audience.”
As acting students, who could deceive whom?
Li Tingting’s face stiffened, but she quickly covered it up with a laugh, “Huixin, today the police came to the school again to investigate Senior Han Yue. There are rumors all over the school now. You… haven’t told the police anything about me, right?”
“Told the police you colluded with Han Yue to set me up? Trapped me in an unjust situation? Or said that you two were pimps, specializing in deceiving innocent young girls?”
“You…!” Li Tingting’s face turned green and white, sneering, “I don’t know when you became so glib. You have no money or connections. Dreaming is faster if you want to make it in this circle.”
Li Tingting shook the gold bracelet on her wrist, her face smug, “Do you know who Yu Dawei is? He’s holding an audition for his new movie tomorrow morning at Zhonglou Building. I know a producer in charge of actor selection for this movie. He said I’m quite suitable for one of the roles and recommended me to go for the audition. If I get selected, I’ll be Lady Yu in the future.”
Li Tingting became more and more proud as she spoke. Out of the four roommates in the dorm, the other two had already signed contracts with companies, had steady acting jobs, and would eventually make something of themselves.
On the other hand, Lan Huixin, who excelled in both professional and cultural courses, was ignored by everyone, and they were all waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Being beautiful but having no influence or connections, and not being smart in dealing with matters, such a person was more suitable to go back to her hometown and farm.
Lan Huixin didn’t bother with her, concentrating on working on her resume. She decided not to include many awards, as too many would distract from the main points. Instead, she only listed her grades during her college years. Unlike other people’s fancy achievements, she hadn’t done any advertising or modeling during her first two years of college, focusing instead on her classes.
