After a few days, the weather cleared up. Autumn was crisp, with blue skies and white clouds. A week of autumn rain had caused many people who liked outdoor sports to become restless. Therefore, more people were walking around the campus than usual.
A few days ago, Xiwan said that she wanted to go to Sky Shadow Media Company to take a look. However, it just so happened that yesterday, Sky Shadow had announced the recruitment of artists. Zhou Liqing, who loved to sleep in, got up quickly in the early morning that day. She washed her hair, put on makeup, and put her mask on. By the time the others got up, Zhou Liqing was already sitting in her own seat with a radiant and moving look.
Everyone stared at her.
It had to be said, Zhou Liqing was also a beauty who turned a lot of heads. She had big eyes, a small nose, and a sharp chin. She was quite charming.
By the time Xiwan finished washing up, Zhou Liqing had already happily opened the small drawer of makeup for Xiwan. "Hurry up and put on your makeup. Let's go to Sky Shadow Media Company to show our faces."
Xiwan was silent. She really said that the wind was the rain.
Originally, she had planned to wait for the interview notice obediently. After all, she had already sent her resume to Sky Shadow's company email a few days ago. But they received hundreds of emails every day! They could have missed it... It was probably okay to listen to Zhou Liqing and go check out the company. Perhaps they could really meet their manager or a talent scout.
"Have you done your resume?"
Zhou Liqing was stunned. She slapped her thigh and said without any pause, "Right away! I'll finish it in half an hour." Then, she hurriedly opened her laptop.
Xiwan casually swept her light make-up and then looked at Zhou Liqing, who was typing. After about twenty minutes, Zhou Liqing unplugged the USB from the computer, turned around, and said happily, "Done! We can go downstairs to the printing room to print it later."
Qian Mengfei turned around. "I've got nothing to do," she said, "I'll go with you guys."
"Okay," Zhou Liqing said with a smile. "Maybe you'll be noticed too, Mengfei. Then we can all explore the entertainment industry together."
"Come on, I still have a bit of self-awareness." Living under the halo of her beautiful roommate, she was still confident and brilliant, which was a rare quality.
"Hua Yu, are you going?"
"I have something to do, so I won't go. You guys keep safe and strive for success!"

They crowded into the bus like sardines. Fortunately for them, it wasn't a far journey. When they got on the bus, there were still many empty seats. The three of them were not completely squeezed together, but even so, they were sweating profusely.
After getting off the bus, Zhou Liqing took a damp towel and carefully dabbed at the sweat on her face. "It seems like my makeup is ruined. Oh my... I hate it! If I don't succeed in the interview, I'll be blacklisted for life on Route 18!" she said, referring to the bus they had just taken.
Xiwan and Qian Mengfei nodded silently.
"Come here, " Xiwan said to Zhou Liqing, who looked as if she could hang soy sauce bottles in her mouth. Then, she unzipped her bag and took out the spare makeup.
Zhou Liqing's eyes immediately lit up. "You are a goddess!"
Xiwan quickly touched up Zhou Liqing's makeup, causing the latter's eyes to fill with love. "So warm," Zhou Liqing said, "I would give birth to a monkey for you..."
Xiwan and Qian Mengfei looked at her.
A sneer sounded around the crowd.
The girls looked for the source of the noise and found a young man. He was wearing a light blue t-shirt with a tiger head printed on it and white casual pants.
He had big eyes, snowy white skin, red lips, and white teeth. Despite his baby-like facial features, he looked to be in his twenties. He was very tall too, at least 180cm, if not taller. His flaxen hair was clean and neat, and the bangs that lay across his forehead were blond from the sun.
At that moment, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing two dimples. He was very cute.
They had been initially unhappy but calmed down slightly when they saw his face. However, they did not expect that he was going to say, "Can't you keep your lesbian love secret? The world is so cruel." Xiwan and the others' faces went completely black.
"F*ck, look at your own effeminate face! You know they say that if you're always calling other people gay, it usually means that you must be gay too. Tsk! Your mouth is as stinky as your anus," Zhou Liqing scolded.
The man's eyes widened in disbelief. With a red face, he angrily said, "F*ck, you're so full of sh*t!"
"Likewise." Zhou Liqing crossed her arms over her chest defensively.
Xiwan and Qian Mengfei exchanged a look. "Liqing, not only did you admit that you're a lesbian, you also admitted that your mouth is stinky."
But what was wrong with that man? Why did he come here to pick a fight when there was no reason?
Xiwan took advantage of the fact that it hadn't escalated into a World War, and quickly said, "Okay, Liqing, let's go for the interview. Don't waste precious time with irrelevant people." Then she turned to the man. "You look decent, and yet you suddenly came here to spout nonsense? You even picked a fight with a weak woman in public. You're really quite elegant."
"Hey... Hey. what do you mean?'' The man turned to look at Xiwan with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Thinking that he didn't look carefully, he said, "But you successfully attracted my attention."
Xiwan stared back at him without answering.
When he saw that Xiwan was not going to respond, the man mutter to himself instead. "Forget it. I won't argue with mortals, but you..." He looked squarely at Xiwan. "Hey, what's your name?"
Xiwan ignored him and held onto the hands of her two good friends as they walked toward Sky Shadow Media together.
The man's eyes widened. "F*ck, I was rejected? In my first attempt to strike up a conversation?" He watched them walk towards the company building. He couldn't help but snort. "So, you want to work in the entertainment industry. Tsk, tsk, and here I was thinking you were some kind of chaste and virtuous woman." His monologue continued. "But you chose brother Li Zhan's Sky Shadow. You have good taste, and you haven't debuted yet, so you shouldn't be tainted."
After he finished his train of thought, he looked Xiwan's back and the soft shape of the white cloth she wore. He couldn't help but say, "Your words are sharp. You don't even use dirty words when you curse. Just wait, I will make you submit to my charm."
