Chapter 4 - Chapter 4   Journey to Film Empress Begins!

Lu Yexuan sat by his computer a distant look on his face as puffs of smoke leave his lips. He stared peacefully out the window admiring the beautiful city lights. His long eyelashes casting shadows on his cheeks. Kim Suho stood in front of him and felt chill after chill run down his spine as the temperature in the room dropped steadily. Lu Yexuan was fuming mad.

"Sir, did you somehow offend Young Miss Su. " He unsteadily asks his boss who didn't even throw a glance in his direction. He would've doubted that he heard him except for the fact that the atmosphere seemed to get impossibly colder.

Boisterous laughter rang in the house. Lu Yeluo snickered at his eldest brother's sufferings.

Lu Yeluo was the upcoming film emperor and was doing well. His lighthearted charm and charming smile won the heart of his millions of girlfriend fans. How would they feel if they knew their kind and gentle Prince Charming was busy rolling on the floor mocking his brother without a hint of princely charm? It was a once in a lifetime situation he thought. He must use this chance to exact revenge on his brother for all the bullying he suffered. "I can't believe I have lived to see my eldest brother get spurned by a woman. Bahaha. Mom's even planning to regretfully marry you off now. [1] Haha."

Kim Suho inwardly cursed. Damn! Is he blind or does he not realize the atmosphere isn't right for his jokes at a time like this?

"It seems like you no longer need a new car anymore." A cold voice pierces through the house and immediately the laughter stops.

"BROTHER!!!"

Kim Suho rubs his eyebrows as the wail of a dying pig reverberates through the house. His life seemed to be a hundred times harder with the Lu brothers than it had ever been. When was the last time he had a serious vacation?

Unfazed by the screams Lu Yexuan turned to Kim Suho who was busy trying to make his presence unnoticeable. "Keep an eye on Su Qingtang. "

Kim Suho blanked. "Are you planning to retaliate?"

Lu Yexuan raised his lips into a smirk almost sending the poor overworked Suho to the emergency room. I suddenly feel that poor Young Miss Su is going to be really pitiful. "I suddenly find her very… interesting."

p

A certain confused wailing pig in the background was suddenly revitalized! He jumped off of the ground like the one who was wailing earlier was definitely not him. Finally, someone else to share the burden of suffering brother's wrath!

Lu Yexuan turned his face toward the windows where no one could see a hidden layer of joy shining in his dark eyes. A joy that only he knew the source of. His long fingers drummed a steady beat as he sank into deep thought.

Su Qingtang stared out the window with a bored expression. Her eyes dim. The engagement discussion had ended at somewhat a stalemate and so she decided to go to her apartment in the city to hang out, but nothing could ease her boredom. She watched the busy streets down below from her apartment as people walked by. After a long sigh she then got up and grabbed a coat before she headed outside.

"What are you planning host?" The system asked after a brief moment of silence. It hadn't seen the host this silent in a while. It felt it was not good for her to be sad and so lowered its head to try to cheer her up.

"I'm actually not sure." Su Qingtang whispered aloud, as she walked down a familiar route to a cafe. "I'm thinking about joining the entertainment industry. This is one of my only strengths and I don't want to lean on the Su family for protection. I want to become powerful and make a mark on the world. I want to build my own network like I had wanted to before I died the first time."

"One of your only strengths? Ha! Don't try to lie to me Su Qingtang. How is acting your only strength? Just because I don't have the liberty of investigating your past doesn't mean I'm stupid. With an IQ of 160 your only strength is acting?" The system huffed. How dare she attempt to fool it? "And your scheming ability is top notch. Even I admit letting the male lead off all while putting Song Meishi under shady light was a good choice."

"I forgot you had a hold on my stats." Su Qingtang laughed, losing the melancholy she was radiating and returning to the chirpy Qingtang the system was used to. The system looked on in wordless silence.

The system rolled its eyes as it changed the topic. "So, are you going to try to compete with the female lead? With drama and dog blood and all that spice?"

Su Qingtang was stunned. "Compete directly with the female lead? Do you think it's fun committing suicide? I'm just a little pleasant wallflower who'll gladly give up my throne as film empress when she comes along later."

Directly compete with the female lead? Does the system take me for an airhead? I have a year before the female lead arrives, I'm sure I can shake up the film world by then. Even if only by a little bit.

"Hello. Can I please have that cupcake?" Su Qingtang smiles gently at a pretty little server who blushes before she gives her a cupcake.

Su Qingtang happily munches on her cupcake as she leaves the shop. "Hey system do you think I should go make friends with the female lead from early? I could possibly be sheltered under her wings or shelter her under mine until she gets much bigger in the industry. Shell definitely love me and won't go against me"

"Don't think I'm stupid. If you wanted to be friends with the female lead you would've said something to her a while ago. "

That's right. The pretty little server from a while ago was the female lead but before she rebirthed and became a determined woman who was determined to reach the top of the acting sphere and show the world how powerful she was and that they should never have looked down on her. Basically, the same cliched plot.

Su Qingtang finishes her warm cupcake as she stares into the distance her thoughts completely incomprehensible. The warm city glow landed on her as she walked about.
