Xia Yu looked up and saw an extremely beautiful woman walk in.
An Rao had seen Xia Yu live-stream before, but this was the first time she had seen him in person.
He looked much better than in the live broadcast. He was no longer childish and had the determination of a soldier.
“Sister An Rao?” Xia Yu had received a message from Jun Shiling last night.
“Mm!” An Rao did not have a younger brother. Seeing Xia Yu in a foreign country, she naturally felt a little close to him.
“Have you heard from Bo Xiao?” An Rao walked over, and the others made way for her.
“Yes, but we’re short of one person to enter the city and figure out the situation first.”
They needed someone who was smart and unfamiliar. Otherwise, they would alert the enemy.
“I’ll go.” An Rao looked at Xia Yu. “I just arrived on the plane today. I can pretend to be a tourist.”
“But it’s dangerous,” Xia Yu disagreed.
“It’s okay, I can do it.” An Rao was very determined. She did not want to sit here and wait, as she could not help Bo Xiao.
“Alright, then let me tell you some things to take note of.” Xia Yu had no choice. There was no one more suitable than An Rao.
In the production team, Xia Wanyuan sat by the side and read a book after filming.
“Hello, Senior.” A timid girl stood in front of her.
“What’s the matter?” Xia Wanyuan looked up at the person standing in front of her and lowered her head to reply to Professor Zhang.
The World Painter Competition had already begun. Because Xia Wanyuan was chosen by the Qing University official, she didn’t have to participate in the worldwide audition.
However, because Xia Wanyuan didn’t know much about the world painting trend, Professor Zhang had been tutoring her recently.
Speaking of this matter, Professor Zhang felt that it was strange. Xia Wanyuan had such a deep understanding of painting at a young age, but she did not know anything about painting other than China’s side. She did not even know the most basic knowledge.
“Senior, can I call you Sister Xia? My name is Chen Xiaoguo. I’ll play your younger sister in the movie,” the little girl stared at her canvas shoes and said with a flushed face.
“So what’s the matter?” Xia Wanyuan did not like to waste her breath on unrelated matters.
“I just want to ask you how to improve so that my acting skills can be as good as yours.”
After replying to Professor Zhang’s message, Xia Wanyuan switched off her phone and glanced at Chen Xiaoguo.
“When you spend all your time and effort on acting.” With that, Xia Wanyuan looked at her watch. It was time to get off work, so she left with her bag.
Chen Xiaoguo was stunned when she was left behind.
“What’s wrong, Xiaoguo? What are you saying to Xia Wanyuan?” An actor from the same group leaned over.
“I think Senior Xia acted especially well. I want to ask her about her acting skills.” At this point, Chen Xiaoguo lowered her eyes and looked a little disappointed. “However, maybe I’m too stupid. Senior Xia doesn’t seem to like me much.”
“It’s nothing, don’t be sad. Xia Wanyuan is the female lead appointed by Director Wang Wei. She must be very arrogant. Let me bring you to meet a few old actors.” Chen Xiaoguo was usually sunny and outgoing, but seeing her so sad, the actor in the same group felt pity for her.
“Okay, thank you. You’re the best.” Chen Xiaoguo seemed to be comforted as an innocent smile appeared on her face.
Jun Shiling was rather busy today, so Xia Wanyuan went home herself.
Ever since the previous incident, Jun Shiling had found a chauffeur from somewhere to pick Xia Wanyuan up.
When the car drove to the Third Ring Road, Xia Wanyuan suddenly called for the chauffeur to stop.
In front of an ancient three-story building, a group of people was arguing.
“Go and look for the leader of your company to tell me. Anyway, I only recognize Zhong Ling. Why should you change to a sub-par person?”
“What do you mean?! Who’s the one who is subpar? Show some respect!” Zhu Wen was anxious when she heard Xiu Yi staff’s words.
She took the contract that Zhong Ling did not want and came to look for Xiu Yi to sign it. In the end, the person in charge of Xiu Yi mocked them.
After all, the model that they had agreed on at the beginning was Zhong Ling, and Zhong Ling had become a model of Camellia. Compared to her, Zhu Wen’s value was naturally much lower.
Zhu Wen wanted to argue with them, but she was pushed out of the door by the staff.
“Anyway, hurry up and leave. Why don’t you go and take a look? How much sales does our Xiu Yi have this year? Can any Tom, Dick, and Harry endorse it?”
“You…” Zhu Wen staggered from the push. Fortunately, someone supported her from behind.
“Thank you.” Zhu Wen turned around to thank her, but she was stunned when she saw Xia Wanyuan’s face. “Miss Xia?”
Zhu Wen subconsciously looked at the bag on her shoulder.
Xia Wanyuan followed her gaze. “Do you like this bag?”
“I like it. It’s beautiful.” Zhu Wen nodded.
Although Manda criticized the bag without restraint, Zhu Wen felt that the fashion director of Camellia was not a judge. Why did it not look good just because she said so?
“What’s your name?” Xia Wanyuan turned to the extremely arrogant person in charge standing at Xiu Yi’s door.
“Miss, the person beside you is here to cause trouble. If you want to buy something, come in with me.”
The person in charge, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, glanced at Xia Wanyuan’s clothes and jewelry, and his expression immediately became obsequious.
“You’re fired,” Xia Wanyuan said to the in-charge.
“Pfft.” The in-charge laughed. “Miss, if you don’t buy anything, go out and turn right. Forgive us for not receiving you.”
Xia Wanyuan directly made a phone call.
“Shen Qian, come over.”
