As Qiao Moyu exited, she just happened to brush shoulders with Qiao Ruohuan. Qiao Ruohuan examined at her calm expression for two seconds, then smiled and raised her chin. She walked past her and pushed the door of the audition room confidently.
But not longer after Qiao Ruohuan entered through the doors, Ye Peicheng had already left the room.
He glanced at Qiao Moyu, who had not yet left, before heading out to a quiet place and answering his phone: "Dad."
"Peicheng, I need your help with something…" Father Ye said: "You don't have to stay for the rest of the actress' auditions there in the future since I need your help with something urgent."
Ye Peicheng replied: "Okay, I'll be right there."
After exiting the audition room, Qiao Moyu examined the script in her hand once again as she was filled with inspiration from that recent audition. By the time she finished studying it, she couldn't see any sign of Ye Peicheng around. He must have returned to the audition room to act with another candidate.
Just then, the door of the audition room opened and Qiao Ruohuan walked out. In an instant, she noticed that Ye Peicheng wasn't in the hall at all. Did he leave?
"Ruohuan, how was it?" Xing Yichen's voice was gentle and doting as he approached.
"It was good." Qiao Ruohuan raised her lips: "Feng Dao told me to go home and wait for the good news."
"If you'd like, I think we can celebrate your victory in advance!" Xing Yichen's eyes seemed to drift towards Qiao Moyu as he spoke."
Over at the entrance, several auditioners in waiting looked depressed. Some of them thought that making any effort at this point was useless; might as well take this opportunity to flatter Qiao Ruohuan. So they stood and smiled: "Congratulations Qiao Qiao!"
Yes, Sister Ruohuan, you're so beautiful and talented in acting! The female lead's spot is definitely yours! Congratulations in advance!"
"If Sister Ruohuan joins Feng Dao's TV series, you'll definitely spark a fire. Can I ask for your signature in advance?"
Qiao Ruohuan laughed lightly. "Feng Dao hasn't released the announcements yet. What if it wasn't me?" Although these were her words, the mirth in her eyes was as if she had already seen the official announcement.
...
At 6 pm the next day, the auditions are officially ended and the heroine's name will be announced on the official blog of "First Light of Dawn."
As soon as 6 o'clock arrived, Qiao Moyu opened her Weibo and was about to search for the drama's official website, when she saw her name being tagged @ with a notification.
When she clicked on it, she found that it was an official message from the official blog of "First Light of Dawn" just 10 seconds ago. The sentence was brief but full of power: "Congratulations @Qiao Moyu, who successfully passed the audition and became the female lead for 'First Light of Dawn'!"
Although she was satisfied with her performance at that time, Qiao Moyu was still surprised and excited when she saw the result. She felt as if she was up in the clouds.
At that same moment, Xing Yichen opened his Weibo to send a congratulatory note to Qiao Ruohuan. But when he opened the drama's blog, he was stunned by what he read.
Wait, it's Qiao Moyu?!
