Chapter 21 - Zheng Hualian Likes Xia Minghua?

[Xia Minghua sent you a message!]

She had nearly forgotten about him.

[Xia Minghua]: Where are you right now?

[Zhou Lengxin]: I'm at Imperial Tower.

[Xia Minghua]: What floor?

[Zhou Lengxin]: 7th

[Xia Minghua]: Don't move.

After that, he didn't send anything else over.

Why was everyone telling her not to leave?

"Teacher Zhou, I've sent you clips of the scenes we've shot so far. I've included her audition as well." Song Liqin said before going out.

Zhou Lengxin suddenly realized that other than the first shoot, she hadn't witnessed much of Zheng Hualian's acting. These would be very useful to identify the problems. That way she could make an action plan to tackle them.

"Teacher Zhou! There's someone here for you!"

Zhou Lengxin had a strange feeling of deja vu.

She was going to make her way to the door, but it opened by itself to reveal a very handsome youth.

"Hello~" A flirty smile crept onto his face as he shut the door behind him.

Zhou Lengxin's eyebrows raised slightly. She finally made sense of Wei Lina's abnormal behavior.

'So these two are in cahoots, I see...'

Ignoring him, she went to watch the shoot.

They were using Imperial Tower to shoot the scene inside of Jade Tower so they were using many extras.

Lead actress Wang Anna only needed to briefly appear, whereas the camera focused on the main lead, Deng Boqin.

"....aaand cut! Everyone take a break, we'll be back in fifteen!" Director Ye barked to the crowd.

"Senior Wang, would you mind doing me a favor?"

Zhou Lengxin approached Wang Anna in her dressing room.

The 30-year-old veteran actress looked as young as when she was in her prime, which had spanned over 10 years. She had been in the industry for over two decades, standing at the top of A-listers.

"Could I get an autograph for a few of my friends?"

Zhou Lengxin felt a bit awkward initiating a conversation, but she needed an excuse to run away.

Wang Anna gave her a once-over with her eyes, glanced at her company pass, and the pulled out a couple of "His Endless Love" promotional posters.

"How many?"

"Um, three. Thank you."

Underneath her picture, she signed her name beautifully on three posters and passed over.

"Thank you so much! Sorry to bother you." Zhou Lengxin politely bowed.

"Haha, it's fine. I think we will be seeing each other again quite soon, Artemis."

Zhou Lengxin carefully pondered on Wang Anna's words after she exited her room.

She had X-Nation's upcoming Korean and Japanese idol projects coming up, but she doubted that that was what Wang Anna was referring to.

Was there something in the works that she was unaware of?

"Sis Zhou! Here you are! The things you wanted me to gather, I've sent what I've compiled so far." Li Chuhua winked as she went towards the women's restroom.

Zhou Lengxin immediately checked her inbox. Sure enough, there was a message from Li Chuhua.

[Li Chuhu sent you a message!]

[Li Chuhua]: Sis Zhou, from what I've gathered, Zheng Hualian said she likes a nice and pure guy, someone who is genuine and will take care her... she's pretty cute, huh?

[Li Chuhua]: SIS ZHOU! You know that really hot guy that just came? Your friend? I think she's taken a liking to him... he's not your boyfriend is he?

Li Chuhua then sent a series of stickers to the chat.

Zhou Lengxin reread her message twice.

'Zheng Hualian likes Xia Minghua?'

Zhou Lengxin did know whether to feel happy or sad.

Yes, she wanted Zheng Hualian to be able to connect to the scene, but making her experience the heartbreak of unrequited love seemed a bit cruel.

However, there was nothing she could do about it. She could not choose who Zheng Hualian liked, nor could she control Xia Minghua's feelings. Such was the reality of things.
