The next day, it started to rain in City B. For a few days after, the high temperature suddenly dropped.
Xiwan finally finished her resume. Because she did not know the honors and awards of her predecessor, she'd spent a lot of time looking up the information.
In the night, when she had finished her resume, she looked at the full list of awards: first place in the Host Cup, the Host Competition Excellence Award, the Best Typhoon Award, she had been the winner of the National first-class Scholarship selected from the city's top ten youth...
After looking through the newly written resume, Xiwan felt that something was strange.
"A top student is a top student, after all. Looking at your full resume, it's a sure thing. You should apply to be a live streamer." Qian Mengfei, who was putting on a face mask, sighed. Qian Mengfei didn't know that Xiwan was planning to enter the entertainment industry.
Xiwan only smiled. After all, these honors were from a previous life. However, thinking back, the honors reminded her of her past life: full of awards, first place for all kinds of performances, and all kinds of accolades for movie queens...
It was a pity that the current her started from scratch.
No, she had more than ten years of experience than the previous Jiang Xiwan, who had just stepped into the entertainment industry.
"Oh right. Which television station do you plan to go to as an anchor? B Television Station, Channel 2, District Television Station, or Central TV?"
Xiwan shook her head. "I don't plan to."
"Eh?"
"I want to go to the entertainment industry. To test the waters."
"You want to go to the entertainment industry too?" As Xiwan finished speaking, Zhou Liqing, who was engrossed in a novel, instantly raised her head.
"Are you sure?" Qian Mengfei was slightly shocked.
Xiwan nodded.
Qian Mengfei patted her small chest and said, "Xiwan, you're usually very quiet. Whenever you do something, you drop a bomb everywhere."
"Oh, that's great," Zhou Liqing replied, "I'll have a partner in the entertainment industry."
Zhou Liqing had always wanted to enter the entertainment industry. She cared the most about the gossip in the entertainment industry out of all the students in her dorm. Back then, her roommates had asked her why she didn't go to the acting department if she wanted to go into the entertainment industry. The university's acting department was also very famous and had produced many famous stars in the industry. However, Zhou Liqing said, "My looks can only be above average in the entertainment industry. It's very easy for people to forget about me. Since my looks can't win, then I'll win with my education." She sighed. "It's a pity that I can't get into B University or Q University. That would be even more satisfying. Hmph! Look at these low IQ b*tches in the entertainment industry, hmph!"
At that time, everyone ridiculed in unison, "Are you crazy?" After all, there were many actors in the entertainment industry, and many top students.
Zhou Liqing continued, "Xiwan is so good-looking, she'll definitely become famous. This way, I can borrow some of her fame, just like those movie stars Jiang Xiwan and Su Nuanyu. We can be the new twin sisters of the entertainment industry!"
When Xiwan heard Zhou Liqing speak those last few words, the hatred that had been buried deep inside was once again revealed. The malicious look and haze in her eyes could not be dispersed.
Xiwan's thoughts raced through her mind: 'Su Nuanyu, your plan is really good. Sure enough, everyone in the world has been successfully fooled by you. Everyone thinks that you're a harmless little white flower and that you're Jiang Xiwan's good sister. Ah! Including my once stupid self!'
If it weren't for Su Nuanyu being so impatient, perhaps Xiwan would have been kept in the dark for the rest of her life.
'Haha, sure enough, you're the one who should be the best actress!' Xiwan's face did not reveal anything about what she was thinking. 'Your acting skills have fooled everyone in the world. You're really amazing!'
'Fortunately, God has eyes and let me live again.'
'How you treated me in the past will be returned to you a hundred times over!' Xiwan addressed Su Nuanyu with her thoughts.
"Xiwan, I asked you, what do you think?" Zhou Liqing repeated herself when she saw Xiwan's blank expression.
"Oh, that's good, but we're us, not Jiang Xiwan and Su Nuanyu. Who knows if their friendship was just for the world to see?"
Zhou Liqing nodded in agreement. "Yes, we're us. Who knows if their friendship is real or fake? After all, both of them are movie queens and their acting skills are superb. Besides, if it were not for the indecent video, who would have known that the goddess on the screen who looks unattainable relies on men in private?"
"Zhou Liqing, stop talking nonsense!" Sun Huayu, who didn't say much, said. After all, no matter what, death was like a lamp going out. Moreover, Jiang Xiwan was once an artiste that she admired very much. "Besides, it's been so long since the incident, and she committed suicide, so let's not talk about this nonsense anymore. Besides, I keep feeling that something is strange about it all."
"What's strange?"
Xiwan was not angry at Zhou Liqing's outspoken words. Although Zhou Liqing's malicious speculation made her feel a little uncomfortable, Zhou Liqing did not know the truth. Moreover, what Zhou Liqing said was probably what the public thought.
Ha! Su Nuanyu was indeed amazing. Not only had she successfully defamed her, but she also stepped on her body and walked forward steadily.
In fact, she rarely paid attention to the news in the entertainment circle these days. She was afraid that she would reveal some inappropriate emotions due to her hatred, and then reveal some clues about who she used to be. She was also afraid that her calm character would break down again. However, even if she did not see or hear the explosive news, she couldn't help sometimes hearing the discussions of the people around her.
This happened when Su Nuanyu revealed to the news that she was in love. The man in question was Lin Xi, and Su Nuanyu called him her first love... But because someone had exposed him for being the male lead of that indecent video, the circle was really messy...
It was suspected that Su Nuanyu was pregnant, and there was hope for her to move into a rich family...
Then, when Su Nuanyu talked about her best friend's suicide, she broke down in tears and fell into a severe hysteria many times...
The media's evaluation of her was romantic, and her friends in the entertainment circle all comforted her.
She was becoming really successful.
Xiwan asked Sun Huayu, "What's wrong about it?" She thought about it for a moment. "I can't tell," she replied, "It's just my intuition. When the movie queen was alive, there was no trace of Su Nuanyu in the news, but she's all over the headlines. The whole article was full of praise for her, but it was also a press release and obituary for Jiang Xiwan, the movie queen. The media also called Su Nuanyu kind and righteous. They said she should not have to suffer and keep her true love in seclusion and silence inside her heart. If they can ignore the best actress committing suicide, then so be it. After all, the reasons for Jiang Xiwan's suicide were not exactly honorable, but her best friend couldn't wait to tell the whole world that she regretted her best friend committing suicide because of an indecent video. Hmm... this kind of news, it's very annoying to watch."
Sun Huayu's reasonable words shocked everyone.
Even Xiwaan could not help but admire her. Sun Huayu was as meticulous as a fine-tooth comb, and many things of the things she said were on point.
Sun Huayu continued. "In fact, her acting skills are average, but now she's being praised to the skies. Her acting skills are off the charts... She overpowered Jiang Xiwan and Zhang Zhiyi to win the best actress award at the Golden Age awards. But was there really no shady business behind the Golden Age award winners? Putting aside the fact that the best actress, Jiang Xiwan's movie, had a record box office sales, and Zhang Zhiyi's, 'Those Years,' even if Jiang Xiwan was rejected, it wouldn't be Su Nuanyu's turn. But now, a lot of news is speculating how good her acting skills are. I don't deny that as the female lead in 'The Amnesiac's Wife' she is indeed not bad, but compared to others she's still inferior."
Qian Mengfei and Zhou Liqing nodded. "You're right. She used to be considered box office poison."
"Maybe she wants to take advantage of the death of her best friend to create hype and attract more people? Maybe she's trying to push herself to the top? After all, although the best actress made an indecent video, she still has a lot of loyal fans." Qian Mengfei scratched her chin.
"Ah, is this friendship real or fake? If it's fake, Su Nuanyu is too disgusting. But even if the friendship is real, it's still quite disgusting for her to tie up her dead best friend to gain popularity. Ah, I don't want to think about it anymore! The circle really is messy." Zhou Liqing pouted.
"Come on, don't you also want to enter the noble circle? You'll be in a mess in the future."
"Bah! I won't. Oh right. Xiwan, which agency are you planning to go to?"
"The Sky Shadow Media Company."
"Sky Shadow... I've heard of it, but Huafeng is the strongest in the industry, right?" Zhou Liqing said.
"Huafeng is now Su Nuanyu's world. Are you sure you want to go?" Sun Huayu looked at Zhou Liqing coldly.
"No, no, I'll go wherever Xiwan goes," Zhou Liqing said with a smile, "and I really want to meet the CEO of Sky Shadow. There are rumors on the internet that he's super handsome."
"There's no picture to show the truth. How can you believe that kind of gossip?" Qian Mengfei tore the mask of her face. "But his mother is the only grand slam winning best actress, Zheng Yinyin. They all say that her son should inherit her looks. As long as his father isn't ugly! It's hard to say," she sighed. "But speaking about all this makes me feel sorry for Jiang Xiwan. If she had won the Golden Age award, she would have broken Zheng Yinyin's record and been the youngest grand slam winning best actress."
"Alright, let's not talk about the dead best actress too much. Otherwise, our own Jiang Xiwan will get dizzy. But I have to say Xiwan, your name is exactly the same. Will there be trouble in the entertainment industry in the future? After all, with... " Zhou Liqing looked at Xiwan and she trailed off.
Xiwan shook her head.
"All those people who called Jiang Xiwan a beauty? Tsk, tsk, with your looks, all the female celebrities in the entertainment industry will be blown away," Zhou Liqing said as she lifted Xiwan's fair and tender chin. "If Xiwan plays the female lead in the ancient Xianxia drama, everyone will be queuing up to have their pictures taken with the beautiful actress, No, I want to take more photos with Xiwan now!"
"..." Xiwan was taken aback.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Qin Mengfei said.
And so, the four girls took four funny photos, and saved them into their phones. A freeze-frame scene of youth.
