Chapter 17 - The Audition

Xia Yao Xing got ready and took a cab to the audition centre.

When Xia Yao Xing got there, Jang Man Wol was already waiting for her outside the centre.

She hugged Xia Yao Xing tightly saying, "Xiao Xing. Finally your here! It's already about your turn go get in." She broke the hug and asked, "Are you prepared?"

Xia Yao Xing heaved a sigh of relief and looked at her Xiao Man_Wol who was adorably looking at her, Xia Yao Xing said holding both Jang Man Wol's hands, "Xiao Man_Wol, you know that I don't need to be prepared for acting!"

She released Jang Man Wol's hand and said, "And... I have been preparing for this day since, I joined the company..." As she said so, her voice become inaudible at the end of her sentence.

She was waiting for this day from the day she decided to take everything back from Xia Xiang, the day she got to know Xia Xiang's truth.

Her 8 years love and believe in her sister has shattered.

That family took her everything away. Her sister took her brother Mo from her! She even tried to kill her. It was because of her sister that she ended up in a place where she was treated and tortured as an animal for whole 3 months.

That family separated her from every person she was close to. Every person she loved was taken away from her. Why?

Why? Why the Hell do they made her this way.

She wanted to know the truth. She wanted to kill that family right this instant.

Xia Yao Xing doesn't know why, she felt clueless. She wanted to kill everyone in that damn Xia family. She wanted everyone of them dead. But... She didn't know what held her back. She felt helpless against them.

Xia Yao Xing knew that she was nothing in front of Xia family. She was like a small fry while Xia family was like snake that a fry should be afraid of. She knew she needed power. She knew she needed money to put that damn family into its own place and the only way to do it is... TO BECOME POWERFUL!

She would become powerful and then would confront them for the truth.

She knew it's not easy to become powerful and hence decided to become an actress and then take the step to counter attack them! It will also have her sweet sister realize who has the last laugh!

But... She was more upset than angry. She WILL FOUND OUT THE TRUTH! FOR SURE!

Xia Yao Xing entered into the building and saw that most of people are leaving. She asked Jang Mal Wol, "What is happening, why are they leaving?" As she pointed her finger towards the leaving group.

Jang Man Wol looked into the direction of Xia Yao Xing's finger and said, "OH that?... They must have failed the audition." She looked back at Xia Yao Xing and said, "Its just that if you can't pass the audition they will notify you right away to leave and they only requested for shortlisted ones to wait..."

Xia Yao Xing looked at her and asked, "Then are you selected?"

Jang Man Wol git excited at the question and said, "Yes... They didn't assigned the role but, shortlisted me!"

Xia Yao Xing hugged Jang Man Wol and said, "Well done. I knew you wouldn't embarrass me."

Jang Man Wol broke the hug and fought back, "Why would I embarrass you... You! Just get it your already late!"

She wanted to fight more but, realising the situation is not perfect se took Xia Yao Xing inside the location.

They went further into the location and as soon as they get to the audition Hall, assistant director announced, "No. 52! "

It was Xia Yao Xing's turn, she didn't even got her script when the assistant announced her name. The assistant gave Xia Yao Xing a flat look and handed her a script.

The assistants behaviour was understandable. Every contestant was notified multiple times to reach the location 1 hours before the reporting time, but Xia Yao Xing was nowhere to be seen until her turn came. She didn't even had time to look at her script. The assistant was sure that Xia Yao Xing was going to increase her burden by increasing the BP level of judges!

Xia Yao Xing didn't mind assistant directors behaviour as she was indeed late of the audition. But it was her fault for not seeking the information beforehand. She slept in the morning. She even ignored Jang Man Wol's calls in the morning due to her idiotic brain. It was none other than her fault! Xia Yao Xing scolded herself internally.

She walked into the hall while looking at her script. 'Wars in Love -- 95, 96' was written on the script. Xia Yao Xing didn't even turned a page to look into the script when she handed the script back to a helper and stood in front of the judges.

She doesn't need to look at the script.

As zia Yao Xing got no support from Manager Cheng Rui, Jang Man Wol's manager, Manager Fu helped her get this script and the day she got the script she read it and fell in love with this script.

The way the antagonist was described in this novel was mesmerising. Xia Yao Xing couldn't forget this character even in her sleep. She wanted to portray this character so much! She loved the antagonist character.

Xia Yao Xing read the script for God knows how many times that she could even act in her sleep.

WARS IN LOVE , was originally a novel written by an anonymous writer. It was a novel which explained the pain that was caused by love. It was a story of two girls, completely different from each other. They were different from the way they ware to the way they think. But, there was one thing that was common in both of them, which is the cause of creation of this novel. That was, One man!

They both loved him. They both wanted him. But the one that the man was attracted to and loved was the protagonist. While the other girls becomes the antagonist trying every way to get her man back.

A famous film director took interest in this novel and wanted to recreate it as a film.

The 2 scenes Xia Yao Xing got were very tricky.

In the 1st scene Xia Yao Xing has to act as the protagonist. In this scene, Xia Yao Xing has to distribute relief in a flood affected village. It has only 3 lines in the scene and it is the scene where male lead would see the protagonist for the first time. Xia Yao Xing has to portray herself as the kindest of all people.

In the 2nd scene, Xia Yao Xing has to act as antagonist. Antagonist was in rain and has to display her sadness without uttering a single word. It was because antagonist has lost her baby and couldn't utter a word to anyone. Even the father of the child was with someone else and the antagonist was all alone in this whole world to cry. She regretted, she regretted doing everything she did to obtain a man that didn't even love her. She regretted losing her child. She doesn't have anyone to blame for this except herself.

Xia Yao Xing, stood in front of the judges. She greeted everyone present. She bowed to them with respect and looked at them respectfully while she said,

"Good afternoon everyone. I'm Xia Yao Xing."
