Chapter 819: Secretly Competing

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On the day Wen Chi returned, Gu Huanhuan was auditioning. Filled with anticipation, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.

The audition room was packed with popular young actresses. Given the childhood sweetheart theme, the age requirement was lower, but the competition was fierce.

While waiting, Gu Huanhuan was reviewing her script when she overheard a conversation nearby. The voices were low, but she could hear them clearly.

“Yiyi, who do you think will get the female lead?” It was Susie, a rising star in the entertainment industry, who had recently gained acclaim for her performance in a well-received drama. Her confidence showed in her tone.

“It’ll be you, obviously. The rest of us are just here to fill the numbers.” The response came from Liu Yiyi, the second lead in a currently popular TV series.

“That’s not certain. This is Director Guan’s project, after all. Did you see? Every Tom, Dick, and Harry showed up.” Susie said with disdain, her tone dripping with arrogance as if the lead role was already hers.

“Yeah, people need to know their place,” Liu Yiyi added, glancing in Gu Huanhuan’s direction.

Gu Huanhuan felt the weight of Liu Yiyi’s stare and frowned slightly.

The larger the forest, the more varied the birds.

Susie pretended to pull on Liu Yiyi’s sleeve and whispered, “Stop it. We’ll see who has real talent soon enough.”

At the first glance, Gu Huanhuan had recognized Susie. Their paths had crossed before when they both competed for a role, a role Gu Huanhuan ultimately secured, leading to Susie holding a grudge.

Later, Susie’s career took off after she reportedly found a powerful patron, leading to better opportunities and eventually landing leading roles, which made her an instant star.

Now, she walked with an air of superiority, looking down on others.

Gu Huanhuan had no intention of engaging with her. It was best to stay far away from people like Susie. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Soon, it was Susie’s turn. She adjusted her outfit and walked confidently into the room.

Gu Huanhuan felt a wave of nervousness; she would be next.

She focused on her emotions, preparing for the scene where the characters reunite after ten years. The joy, excitement, and tension needed to burst forth all at once.

Gu Huanhuan sat quietly, closing her eyes, detaching from her surroundings.

After a while, the door opened, and Susie emerged.

“How did it go? You were in there for quite a while. They must have been pleased with your performance,” Liu Yiyi said excitedly, as if she herself had been auditioning.

Susie modestly replied, “It was alright. I think I did okay.”

“Dear, if you get the lead role, don’t forget your sister here. Help me get a small part, okay?” Liu Yiyi revealed her true motive.

Out of Liu Yiyi’s sight, Susie’s eyes flashed with contempt. No wonder she was sucking up to her. She didn’t even realize her own insignificance and hope to get into Director Guan’s film. How delusional.

Of course, Susie would never let Liu Yiyi see this. In the entertainment industry, where flattery and backstabbing were the norms, having one more friend and one less enemy was crucial. After all, there were plenty of people ready to kick you when you were down.

Before entering the audition room, Gu Huanhuan glanced at them and caught Susie’s expression. This was the entertainment world—full of fake friendships.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Huanhuan gently pushed open the door.

Inside, she saw Director Guan and several investors seated.

She bowed politely, ready to give it her all.
