The blinded Lu Ying was purifying herself in the room, and the name Xia Yitong left an impression on her in a not-so-welcoming way.

Hmm… a popular young actress with “earth-shattering” acting skills.

Lu Yinbing didn't care whether she could stand out or not. What she didn't understand was why Lai Ying recommended such a person to her.

Last night, Laiying called and said, "Yinbing, can you please do me a favor? I won't play the female lead, right? There's a little girl who wants to audition, but her qualifications aren't very good. Can you please help me get her into the first round of auditions?"

"Which kid?"

"Her name is Xia Yitong, a kid with a nice personality."

Lu Yinbing searched through the stored information in his brain and wondered, "Why have I never heard of this person?"

"It's normal that you didn't pay attention to him since he's new to the big screen."

"Okay, but what I say may not count. The person was selected by Qin Hanlin, and he has to make the final decision."

"Anyway, just agree to help me with this."

"OK."

Lu Yinbing was puzzled, and the bad impression of Xia Yitong could not be shaken off in her mind. She was unhappy, and she made a long-distance call to her.

This time, the other party didn't forget to bring his phone or didn't hear it. He picked up the phone in a relaxed tone: "Hello?"

Lu Yinbing said, "Didn't you ask me to make an exception for someone yesterday? She got the audition. I'm reporting the good news to you."

Laiying smiled and said, "Thank you. I knew you were a good person."

Lu Yinbing: "It's one thing that I'm a good person, but shouldn't you check before you recommend someone? They're all ugly and crooked. Do you think you have a clear conscience?"

Laiying was enjoying the massage from the man's shoulders to his back comfortably. Hearing this, she asked curiously, "What's wrong? Xiaoxia's acting is pretty good among the newcomers. You can't always use your standards to judge others. There's not a single person in the entertainment industry who can match your level."

Lu Yinbing wanted to retort, "You can't be without standards, but after thinking about it, she held back and asked, "How do you know such a kid? And you're helping her so much, didn't you never give anyone a backdoor?"

Lai Ying heard the ugly tone she just said, guessing that she had some bad opinion of Xia Yitong, so he deliberately said something nice to her: "I've known her for about a year, I met her while filming a movie, this kid, hey, he's different from other people in the entertainment industry, he's very humble, willing to endure hardships, simple, very lovable..."

Lu Yinbing said earnestly: "Laiying, I know the person but not the face..."

Laiying said, "I know you want to say that being humble in this circle may be fake. Suffering is necessary. Who hasn't suffered? You have suffered much more than them."

Okay, Lu Yinbing raised her eyebrows and swallowed what she was about to say.

"Let's not talk about whether it's hard work or not," Laiying said, "let's just talk about how hard we work in acting."

Lu Yinbing lowered his eyelashes, put his fingers on the armrest of the sofa, tapped the rhythm as Jing Xiu usually did, and said, "Tell me."

Laiying said: "She is an orphan and grew up in an orphanage."

Lu Yinbing paused and suddenly raised his eyes.

"She was frightened by a horse and had to get 20 stitches on her head. Fortunately, she didn't fall on her face, otherwise she wouldn't be able to walk on this road. Her left hand was broken twice, once with a fracture, once with a patella fracture, once with a comminuted fracture of the little finger on her right hand, once with a comminuted fracture of the heel, and once with a large area of abrasions on her back due to a dragging accident. Her entire back is almost rotten, and..."

"Wait," Lu Yinbing interrupted her gently, "She told you?"

Laiying said, "No, she is not someone who likes to play the victim. I went to her room to act with her during filming and accidentally discovered the scars on her body. She was evasive and refused to tell me. I found out by asking her myself. What I know is just a tiny part."

Lu Yinbing said lazily: "Isn't this the price you should pay if you want to be famous? Without a good background, you can only risk your life."

Laiying: "What you said is true. There is no one in this circle who doesn't want to be famous. You have become so famous. Haven't you been working hard in acting?"

"I call this artistic pursuit." Lu Yinbing licked her bloody thin lips, was silent for a while, smiled, and said with interest in a tone that was almost singing: "Okay, your mind is crooked to Java. Even if it's all true, what you said is not enough to support the argument that you helped her get a backdoor. There are people in the entertainment industry who are more desperate than her. Are you going to help them all?"

Laiying turned over in her fiancé's arms, and said lazily, "Do you think I'm idle? I told you, children are lovable. Her orphanage is in a county under T City. I went there to film a scene once, and I really liked a specialty called mushroom there. It was thin and long, and you couldn't buy it anywhere else. I told her about it, and she was so greedy. She said she would bring it back for me when she was free. About a month later, she called me and said she was running a promotion in T City, and she had gone to the county to look for more than a dozen specialty stores before she found it. She was worried about letting her assistant buy it, so she asked me when I was free so she could bring it to me. I had forgotten about it, but she remembered."

Lu Yinbing curled his lips expressionlessly: "You were bribed by a bag of local specialties?"

Laiying smiled and said, "It's not one pack, it's two packs. She was afraid that I wouldn't have enough to eat. Oh, and she also told me the location of the store, so it's convenient to buy more after I finish eating. Is the kid considerate?"

Lu Yinbing: "Isn't this just flattering you? And you still say I'm innocent?"

Lai Yingbuxi ignored her and said, "Okay, you can say whatever you want. You will know after a long time. Whether it's flattery or sincerity, I'm not stupid. If I can't tell, I don't need to be in the entertainment industry. For my sake, please be nicer to her."

"Only you can do this. Go on your honeymoon. Does she know about your marriage?"

“Yes.”

"Oh, then she..."

Lai Ying was almost defeated by her and collapsed, "Can you please not assume the worst of a child? She definitely didn't know about my strike in advance, and she didn't plot against me. I told her because she called to show concern for me. I don't want to talk to you. If you like to sleep, sleep. If you like to read the script, read the script. Otherwise, play Landlord. Go away!"

Snap—

Laiying hung up the phone.

After getting rid of Lu Yinbing, Laiying comfortably enjoyed the sunbath. Her tall criminal police fiancé looked at her with a smile: "What's wrong? Did you have a fight with your friends?"

"No, one kid is jealous of another kid and tries to discredit the other kid. But it won't be long before the jealous kid falls in love with the other kid."

"So confident?"

"I've never made a mistake." Laiying raised her arm and hooked it around her fiancé's neck. Her beautiful facial features were beautifully outlined by the sunlight. She opened her eyes, kissed the man's lips, and said seductively, "... Especially you."

When Lu Yinghou heard the short beep in the receiver, her face turned gloomy. Xiaoxi came up tremblingly holding the iPad. Lu Yinbing glanced at it and said angrily, "Don't use this account anymore. Why are you so negative? Change it."

Xiaoxi: "Okay, little sister."

So the Landlord numbers prepared by assistants B, C, and D came in handy.

"Ace bomb." Lu Yinbing took a sip of water to moisten his throat and said lightly.

She wanted to see how Xia Xiaohua, whose acting skills were so stunning, would pass the rigorous audition.

Xia Yitong received the audition script the next night. With only two days left until the audition, she closed her door and concentrated on studying the script, even though she wanted to see her so badly.

She has always been able to keep her composure and know her priorities.

I've endured it for six years, there's no reason why I can't endure it for a while.

She clutched three thin pages of the script, her knuckles turning white, but her eyes were like torches: she had to seize this opportunity to have a chance to get close to her!
