Tang Xiaoxiao said pitifully, “Okay, Godfather, 1’11 definitely listen to the director.”
After that, Tang Xiaoxiao handed the phone back to the director.
Tang Xiaoxiao said, “Director, my godfather wants to speak to you.”
The director took the call and sighed lightly, saying, “Boss, funding is tight now, and we have already shot many scenes. If things weren’t that bad with Tang Xiaoxiao, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to clash over money.”
Boss Niu comforted the director for a few moments.
The director said, “Alright since you’ve said it, I’ll give Tang Xiaoxiao another chance. But let’s be clear, this is the last time. Alright, Boss Niu, goodbye.”
After hanging up the phone, the director glanced at Tang Xiaoxiao.

The makeup artist immediately stepped forward to touch up Tang Xiaoxiao’s makeup.
Tang Xiaoxiao’s assistant whispered, “Xiaoxiao, don’t take it to heart. Once you’re famous, no one will treat you like this anymore. Just endure it for now.”
Tang Xiaoxiao somewhat defiantly said, “It’s unfair! One day, these people will regret it.”
The makeup artist, following the assistant, whispered, “Once you’re famous, even the big directors will come begging for you. Don’t worry about not getting roles. But for now, you’ll have to compromise.”
Tang Xiaoxiao sighed. Although she was reluctant, she knew the assistant and makeup artist were not wrong.
In the afternoon, the wind died down, the sunlight shining warmly. Jiang Ling’er and Li Yu walked hand in hand around the streets.
A group of girls hurriedly ran past. From their conversation, it seemed that there was an event ahead.
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Li Yu and said, “Let’s go, let’s see what the event is about.”
Li Yu didn’t like crowded places, but seeing Jiang Ling’er so interested, he didn’t want to dampen her spirits. He let Jiang Ling’er pull his hand and followed along.
From a distance, they saw many people lining up, all wearing happy expressions.
Jiang Ling’er wondered aloud, “Looking at these people’s expressions, it seems like elderly people queuing up at the supermarket for free eggs. Could it be that they’re distributing free items?”
Li Yu squinted and said, “It’s unlikely to be free, but this kind of place is likely for auditions hosted by a director or a company.”
As they got closer, Jiang Ling’er smiled and approached two girls.
Jiang Ling’er asked, “Excuse me, what are you all queuing up for?”
One of the girls smiled and replied, “Don’t you know? The famous director Yan Jin personally came. He’s selecting the male and female leads for a new drama. Anyone has a chance. If you’re interested, hurry and queue up; the auditions end at 5. You’ll have to wait until tomorrow otherwise.”
“Yan Jin?” A glint of cold light flashed in Li Yu’s eyes.
Li Yu subconsciously said, “Ling’er, do you want to try out?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “I’ve accepted your script. How could I accept another one? But I’m curious about this so-called genius Yan Jin. Come, let’s join the queue.”
Li Yu was speechless, feeling dissatisfied. They agreed she would accompany him for dinner, but now she wanted to queue up for some nonsense by Yan Jin.

Jiang Ling’er and Li Yu followed the line and occasionally chatted with the people around them.
After some time passed, a sweet and affected voice, Bai Xue’s voice, suddenly appeared.
Bai Xue said, “Ling’er, you’re here too? I thought I was mistaken.”
Saying so, Bai Xue intentionally approached and politely smiled at Li Yu but didn’t greet him discreetly.
Jiang Ling’er glanced at Bai Xue, expressionless, and didn’t pay any attention to her.
Trying to gain attention and not receiving it, Bai Xue was displeased.
Bai Xue intentionally raised her voice, saying, “Ling’er, with all your resources, you still come here to compete with us ordinary people, You’re not giving a chance to others!”
The implication was that Jiang Ling’er’s actions were selfish.
At this point, some people around also picked up on Bai Xue’s meaning and started whispering. Some even changed their gazes towards Jiang Ling’er. Although queuing up was for fair competition, if someone with resources came, it did make others dislike them.
Seeing the effects, Bai Xue was very satisfied and smugly smiled.
Hearing the murmurs around him, although Li Yu’s face remained expressionless, he was truly unhappy.
Jiang Ling’er held onto Li Yu’s hand the entire time and could clearly feel the displeasure radiating from him. Subconsciously, she scratched Li Yu’s palm, indicating for him not to take it to heart.
Li Yu felt a little pleased when Jiang Ling’er scratched his palm. He squeezed Jiang Ling’er’s hand hard, telling her not to play with fire..
