Master's Untamed Wife-Chapter 903: Pay Attention
Chapter 903: Pay Attention
Li Xinxin seriously looked at him wondering what went through his brain. Why was her artist so difficult to understand? He was so easy to get along with but she wasn't able to see through him. She couldn't tell what was on his mind. He always easily agreed with her ideas but she couldn't say that he was obedient enough to blindly follow her ideas.
He was definitely a smart bean but acted like a cute bean instead.
"Sister Xin!"
"Hm?"
"Did you patch up with your boyfriend?" asked Hyson.
She nodded her head with her lips curled up slightly, "We talked everything out."
"Tsk."
"What's with that reaction?"
"Nothing, I just thought if you didn't plan on patching things up with your boyfriend, I could introduce you to my elder brother."
"Aren't you an only child?"
"One and only!" he replied.
"Then where did this elder brother come from?"
"Who said brothers have to share blood? Families are not made that way, Sister Xin. If you keep thinking like that, you'd eventually find yourself very lonely in this big world. You have to open your mind and heart. Accept people into your life with an open mind."
"You and your words of wisdom," Li Xinxin shook her head. "I can't handle it. I'm a very average person." She took a moment and asked, "What about the scripts I gave you? Did you think about it?" She observed his reaction as she went on, "Although I figured out that fame is not what you seek, I think you have quite some potential. When I stayed at the set with you, I saw you working dedicatedly. You learned to express yourself, all the camera angles, and how to portray yourself in front of the camera. You did a very good job and I must say you have a talent."
Hyson turned his eyes to her, "My only talent is that I don't do things half-heartedly. Besides, everyone else in the group is trying to expand their potential and branch out. I can't stay in the same place. So, I think I've decided to pick up my next work."
"Which one did you like?" she asked.
"Unforgettable Summers," he answered. "I'll take that one."
Li Xinxin was slightly surprised when she heard that. She definitely loved the script when she read it and that's why she picked it up for Hyson but...
"Are you sure?" she asked again. "Technically, you won't be the male lead. The story is about the childhood of the protagonist. You'll just be playing as the older version of the protagonist. And that is gonna come after more than half of the movie is done. The main protagonist is still gonna be the little boy who is playing the younger version."
"I know," stated Hyson. "And I'm okay with that. I just like the story and I feel like it'll be a memorable role. Don't you think so?"
Li Xinxin didn't think he was an emotional person who would be touched by how tear-jerking the story of Unforgettable Summers was. And since he was a happy-go-lucky kind, she was even more certain he won't pick up such a heavy and serious role where a sad undertone lay. But he surprised her yet again. He ended up picking that very role that wasn't like him at all.
"Then I'll contact the director," said Li Xinxin. "Just to be clear, you'll have to go for the audition. Because you're not the only one invited for the audition by the casting director. Also, if you get selected, you'll have to learn about sign language considering the female lead isn't able to speak."
Hyson was about to pick up a candy from the tray on the coffee table when his hand paused. His expression didn't even change as he told her, "Don't worry. I can manage."
"I know," she said. "You're very dedicated. Of course, you'll put your all into the role. I shouldn't even be worried about you at all."
"By the way, is the child star selected for the role?" asked Hyson nonchalantly as he threw candy into his mouth.
"Yeah, they selected him from the get-go," answered Li Xinxin. "I don't know if you've heard about him. His stage name is Chen. As for his real name, I have no clue. He had been getting quite some attention for the role he played last year. He was very good at it. So, the director insisted on casting him once he saw his performance."
"Oh," was all Hyson said in response.
"You haven't heard about him, right?"
"I didn't," replied Hyson honestly.
"Argh! Why are you like this, Fai? Do you even look like a star? You don't even keep up with the latest trends!" She was hopping mad right now seeing his nonchalance. "Pay some attention around the circle. You are a part of this circle. It's not okay to be so carefree."
"I'll try," said Hyson instead of arguing with her. He could tell she'll give a long lecture if he chose to say one wrong word right now. And he wasn't in the mood for that at all. He stood up to leave, "Tell me about the audition date. I'll try to get there. It's late. I should go back now. Bye-bye!"
Saying that he ran out without waiting for her response. He patted his chest once he was out of her range and breathed out a sigh of relief, "She does have a temper!"
He was thinking about calling his assistant to drive him back home when he caught sight of Lin Zhen. His leader seemed to be standing with another man who definitely looked like a big shot. Of course, he didn't know him. Sorry, he was just that oblivious about the circle he worked in but from the way that person looked, it was obvious that he was a big shot!

The statement between the two men was broken by Hyson's voice. Lin Zhen had a serious face as he was facing that man but a smile emerged as soon as he caught sight of Hyson waving at him. As for the man before him who was smiling at Lin Zhen until now, a coldness seeped into his eyes once he noticed the change in Lin Zhen's mood once Hyson appeared.
