Chapter 10

Xia Yitong could hear her heartbeat so violent that it was about to explode, and she experienced in advance what it felt like to have an overloaded heart. If Lu Yinbing didn't move away from her, she would turn herself into a firework and fly into the sky.

Fortunately, Lu Yinbing was just impulsive and knew when to move. He gently scratched her chin with his delicate fingertips, smiled, and let go.

An indescribable tingling sensation spread from where her fingers touched.

Xia Yitong couldn't help but shiver slightly.

"Your audition was very good, don't relax." Lu Yinbing put away his frivolous attitude, looked at her with clear eyes, and warned her.

"Okay... okay." Xia Yitong's stagnant eyes moved slightly and he answered subconsciously.

"Then I'll go first." Xia Yitong was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she turned around. Lu Yinbing turned back again, chuckled, and patted her forehead gently. "Are you too happy? Go back and eat. It's very hot."

After saying that, Lu Yinbing smoothed her long hair behind her head and walked towards her assistant who was waiting for her not far away.

Lu Yinbing's hand had been away for a long time, but Xia Yitong still kept his chin slightly raised, maintaining the original posture.

Su Han had been watching for so long, and if he couldn't see that she was blind, he couldn't help but be secretly shocked. Could it be that Xia Yitong had such thoughts about Lu Yinbing that caused her to behave abnormally? This situation was simply not ordinary. Not necessarily, Su Han said with a fluke: "What if she is just simply idol worship? There are countless young people in the entertainment industry who admire Lu Yinbing's achievements. Xia Yitong is now in an important period of transformation, so it is normal for her to admire her."

But Xia Yitong's next reaction slapped her in the face.

Xia Yitong stayed there for a long time, stroking her chin constantly, and slowly covered her cheeks with both hands like a young girl in love. Her two exposed ears were so red that they seemed to be bleeding.

Su Han: “…”

It's not that I'm nervous or excited, I didn't confide in her, but I was simply shy when my lover got close to me. Come to think of it, it's also true, I just have an idol, why did I hide it from her

Su Han's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he felt mixed emotions.

Fang Hui, who had just returned from buying lunch, looked blankly at Xia Yitong, who was almost falling into a ball of embarrassment on the chair: "..."

Su Han sighed, took the lunch box from her, and said, "Fang Hui, help Teacher Xia up."

Fang Wei helped Xia Yitong, who was weak and frail, up from the chair. Xia Yitong did not move, but stood for a while, then let go of her hand and said politely, "I can walk by myself."

She had to be supported to go out like this. There were so many people here and who knows what strange things might happen.

The achievement Xia Yitong had made today could be described as "unprecedented" in her twenty-three years of life, so much so that she swelled up a little at noon, ate the entire lunch box, and strolled around the house to digest the food.

The cell phone rang. Before Fang Hui could get her the phone, Xia Yitong rushed over. There was an unfamiliar number on the screen. She quickly picked up the phone and stood up straight. She recognized the voice on the other end and called out respectfully, "Director Qin."

Qin Hanlin drank some wine and said cheerfully, "Congratulations, Xiaoxia, you passed the first round of auditions. The assistant director will send you the script for the second round of auditions tonight."

"May I ask the time and place?"

"This... Hehe, keep it a secret. I'll notify you later. You should have a good rest this afternoon. Only if you get enough sleep can you have the energy to film."

"Okay, thank you Director Qin."

"It's rare to see a young person who can act like you," Qin Hanlin said in Mandarin with a hint of Hong Kong and Taiwan accent, "I like Lei. You must work hard and don't be impetuous."

"I will try my best."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Yitong exhaled gently, half of her heart was put back into her stomach, and the other half was still hanging high. She knew her own weight very well, and this time she was lucky enough to make it to the second round of auditions. What made her even more nervous was that Qin Hanlin said that the time and place would be notified later, and whether he would have to shoot any specific scenes.

Laiying took some time out of his busy vacation to answer Xia Yitong's call. As soon as she got through, she couldn't help laughing and said, "I told you and Lao Lu about my marriage. No one else could find me, but you two called me twice a day. People who didn't know would think you cared about me."

"Old, old..." Xia Yitong's tongue was tied up and she almost bit it with her teeth, "Old Lu?"

"Lu Yinbing, who else could it be? Didn't I give you a backdoor? But she called me yesterday to blame me, saying that the person I chose was so annoying." Laiying asked, "Is the audition over? How was the result?"

Xia Yitong said, "It's over."

Laiying laughed loudly: "I knew it. No wonder Old Lu didn't say a word to me today. So, how about that? Isn't her expression particularly interesting? Is she angry?"

Xia Yitong recalled for a moment, pursed her lips and said: "No, it seems... I'm quite happy."

Lai Ying said in surprise: "No, Lao Lu is not easy to get along with. If he gets slapped in the face, he will have to vent his anger for a while."

Xia Yitong blinked and thought: Is asking me to perform Iron Head Kung Fu considered venting my anger

Laiying said with emotion: "Oh, you don't know, Lao Lu used to have a bad temper and often quarreled with the media. Now he is old and can't quarrel anymore, so he just lets them do whatever they want."

How old is she? She still looks like she's in her early twenties. Xia Yitong felt a little indignant for Lu Yinbing, and then thought with regret: How could she not know? In the first few years after Lu Yinbing debuted, she was young and energetic, and devoted herself to filming. She hated the unscrupulous media for making up stories about her. At that time, a reporter from Entertainment Star Weekly chased her at the airport to ask about a scandal at the time. Lu Yinbing couldn't stand it anymore, stopped, snatched her camera, stomped on the lens, and said coldly: "Are you a dog? Chasing people and biting them?"

At that time, the incident caused a great uproar. Some people accused Lu Yinbing of lack of education. They were angry, but how could they attack her personally? However, within a day after the incident was reported, many celebrities in the entertainment industry who were troubled by paparazzi stood up to support her. Many of them were veteran actors who had nothing to do with the incident. After years of friendship, they all stood on Lu Yinbing's side. Fans were also angry, and they all pointed the finger at Entertainment Star Weekly, saying that their idol was usually so good-tempered and so devoted to filming. She was a serious and responsible actor, not one of those worthless stars who needed hype. If it weren't for you unscrupulous reporters who went too far, how could Lu Yinbing be so angry? !

Public opinion turned upside down overnight, and soon after someone posted a long article on Tianya exposing the numerous fabricated histories of Entertainment Star Weekly, and even pointed out that it was the culprit that forced a celebrity to commit suicide due to depression. The article was well-founded and one had to admit it. I don't know if this newspaper disappeared from the entertainment circle because it could not bear the public outrage or for some other reason.

In the end, Lu Yinbing not only did not lose fans, but gained a shining point of "true nature", and her fans loved her even more wholeheartedly. Except for some formal occasions, such as a short interview on the set, the entertainment reporters dared not chase her to ask questions. This host would smash things if she disagreed with something. Although her temper has been restrained in the past two years, who knows when she will get angry again

At that time, Xia Yitong was still in middle school. As a veteran fan, he had the opportunity to participate in the battle to defend his idol. He booked an Internet cafe for the whole night and spent the whole night arguing with the haters on Tianya. The memory of it is very vivid.

Xia Yitong brushed it off and said, "Sister Laiying, I know about this."

Laiying smiled and said, "You know, I thought it's been so long that you newcomers didn't know. She was busy filming and didn't bother to pay attention to them. When you two are acting together, feel free to ask her if you don't understand anything. She likes humble and eager to learn. But if you are too stupid to learn, she will scold you. Just bear with her scolding. Listening to her will only benefit your acting in the future, not harm it."

She is happy even if you scold her.

"I will." Xia Yitong responded, and said, "Sister Laiying, I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead."

"Director Qin said that the time and location of the second audition will be notified separately. I feel like there is something else going on. Can you give me some advice?"

"… "

Laiying was silent for a while, then said in a sad tone: "Be prepared mentally."

Xia Yitong's heart skipped a beat.

What's going on

"Sister... don't scare me..."

Laiying: "I'm not scaring you. Didn't you know that Director Qin likes to film scenes with women? The second round of auditions will most likely be on the bed, and it will definitely be a scene opposite Lu Yinbing."

Xia Yitong was so exhausted that she almost fell backwards: "!!!"
