Chapter 29.
The city center of Tongcheng is full of high-rise buildings, making it impossible to see them all at a glance.
Fu Mingyue came here for an audition for a drama. She just got off the car and was accompanied by her agent Tian Rongrong and her assistant. Fu Mingyue was confident and she was not nervous about this audition because she had already rehearsed a lot at home, and she also had Tang Li co-starring with her, so she had a certain degree of confidence in auditioning for this role.
"Sister Rongrong, there are so many people coming to audition!"
The assistant looked at the people in the elevator. Most of them were familiar faces. She didn't expect that this show would be so competitive. All the people who came were small-name celebrities. You must know that the role auditioned today was only for the supporting female role!
Tian Rongrong saw the assistant's inexperienced look, and helplessly hit her with the script book rolled in her hand, and said: "Shut up, are you afraid that others won't hear your shouts?"
Fu Mingyue lowered her eyes indifferently and followed Tian Rongrong into the elevator. Her appearance unsurprisingly attracted the attention of others. Fu Mingyue was not wearing a mask, so the elegant and fairy-like woman instantly became their strong enemy, because the role in this audition is that aloof and holy fairy, some people even feel timid when they see Fu Mingyue. For no other reason, it's just that Fu Mingyue looks too much like the fairy in the script.
Tian Rongrong handed her script book to her assistant so she could free up her hands. She held her arms and stood in front of Fu Mingyue, blocking the unkind glances from those people with a kind smile on her face, forcing them to withdraw their eyes and looked down at the ground, embarrasing them.
Tian Rongrong curled her lips in boredom. The brief exchange in the elevator made people dare not look at Fu Mingyue anymore. The smart people had long ago remained calm, and only those who were unwilling showed their jealous eyes and stared at Fu Mingyue, wishing to scratch Fu Mingyue's pretty face.
The assistant blinked in panic, feeling as if someone was about to make a hole in her back.
She prayed that the elevator would arrive quickly. She really didn't want to stay for a second longer!
I am not Sister Rongrong, and my cultivation is not as good as hers!
Soon, the elevator dinged and opened the door. Tian Rongrong was the closest and was of course the first to go out.
Fu Mingyue followed closely, listening to Tian Rongrong's instructions.
She has black hair down to her waist, a coat on her arms, and a cold white complexion, which makes her red lips even more charming. Her eyes are clear, and there is a sharp edge hidden in them. Anyone who has seen her will never be willing to forget her, this was Fu Mingyue's unique charm.
At this time, a woman holding a script book to cover her face looked at Fu Mingyue silently. Her eyes were full of bitterness, and even the lines at the corners of her eyes showed a bit of vicissitudes of time. She is clearly in her early thirties, but she looks so haggard and old. How can she still look like her former glory?
"Sister Guihong, what are you looking at?" Next to her was a girl who looked as young as a flower and looked fresh.
Fang Guihong pursed her lips, sighed melancholy, and said, "It's nothing, let's go."
"Sister Guihong, I'm a little scared." Bai Xue is a newcomer who was signed by Wang Guihong right after she left school. She has good looks and wanted to be a star since she was sensible, so she hit it off with Fang Guihong and became an artist of this company. This audition opportunity was obtained by the company after a lot of effort. Fang Guihong thought about this hard-won opportunity and decided to bring Bai Xue to give it a try, but Fang Guihong did not expect to meet her here.
Fang Guihong suppressed the pain in her heart and raised her spirits to comfort Bai Xue. She resisted Fu Mingyue in her memory because she knew she was sorry for Fu Mingyue, but when facing the panicked Bai Xue, Fang Guihong still couldn't help but think of Fu Mingyue. She thought of Fu Mingyue who was so bold and daring to try, compared to her, Bai Xue is still far behind.
"What are you afraid of?"
Bai Xue was startled by her angry voice. She shrank her neck in grievance and explained: "I saw Fu Mingyue...I was worried that I wouldn't be able to be choosen."
Fang Guihong's face turned livid, and she gritted her teeth and said, "There are many supporting roles auditioning today, you always have a chance."
"Okay... okay." Bai Xue was originally full of confidence, but now she was beaten to the last drop. She sniffed, not daring to cry, for fear that it would ruin today's makeup.
"You are no worse than Fu Mingyue, don't be discouraged." Fang Guihong advised her and pushed Bai Xue to the audition, not wanting her to waste any more time.
She, an old acquaintance, was well hidden in the elevator, and Fu Mingyue didn't notice her existence at all. Perhaps for Fu Mingyue, Fang Guihong had long since died in her memory, and even if they met again, she would still be just a stranger.
Fu Mingyue leaned against the wall, flipping through the script book she had read countless times. Tian Rongrong and her assistant were considerate and did not disturb her. They talked in a low voice, with their backs to Fu Mingyue.
Suddenly, a staff member opened the door, looked at the information sheet in his hand, and said, "Next, Fu Mingyue."
The assistant quickly raised hee hand and said, "Okay, okay!"
Tian Rongrong smiled at Fu Mingyue and said, "Come on."
Fu Mingyue nodded with a smile and said, "I won't let you down."
Tian Rongrong watched the door open and close. She couldn't help laughing when she thought of Fu Mingyue's rehearsals these days.
She never thought that a famous agent like her would one day accompany newcomers for interviews. This kind of situation only happened when Tangli was not popular, and it had been so many years before she knew it.
In fact, relying on Tian Rongrong's connections to win the second female lead in this TV series was not a problem at all, and she didn't even need to ask Fu Mingyue to audition. But Tangli rejected Tian Rongrong's idea. She understood Fu Mingyue's character, so she should let her find a way out on her own, so as not to make her think awkwardly and end up causing a problem in herself.
Tian Rongrong can still remember Tang Li's helpless look when she spoke. She was like a Taoist who couldn't control the evildoer. She could only watch the evildoer do evil. In order to prevent the evildoer from causing trouble to the world, she followed the evildoer with a frown and gave her a hand to clean up the mess.
She covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud, and her trembling shoulders attracted the assistant's attention. The assistant said carefully: "Sister Rongrong, are you crying or laughing?"
Tian Rongrong raised her head, wiped away the tears from laughter in her eyes, leaned against the wall like Fu Mingyue did before, and said, "I'm just gloating about your misfortune."
"ah?"
Tian Rongrong patted her assistant on the head, with a crooked smile and charming gentleness, and said: "You are still young, so it's normal that you don't understand what I say."
The assistant curled her lips, snorted arrogantly and ignored her. It was not because she was too shy to speak.
The audition time passed by minute by second. Tian Rongrong glanced at her watch and muttered in a low voice: "This old man Huang is so slow every time."
Probably every director has the spirit of accepting death in his heart. Every audition was extremely slow. No matter how much Tian Rongrong complained, she couldn't make Director Huang change his mind, so she sat on a chair and waited back to back with her assistant.
The assistant has been keeping an eye on that room. As long as there is any movement, she will be able to detect it immediately.
"Sister Rongrong, the Mingyue has come out." the assistant's efforts were responded to, and Fu Mingyue finally appeared.
Tian Rongrong looked Fu Mingyue up and down, and when she saw that she was smiling at her for the first time, she knew that the matter was settled!
She breathed a sigh of relief and silently gave Fu Mingyue a thumbs up, without saying anything.
Fu Mingyue took the coat from the assistant and said, "Let's go, Director Huang said I'll hear the announcement on Friday."
"Okay!" the assistant cheered. She is not as stable as Tian Rongrong. Now that she has received good news, of course she can't help but show off. So the people waiting for the audition for the second female lead all looked disappointed and looked at Fu Mingyue with a look of unspeakable envy.
Fang Guihong, who was mixed in the crowd, tensed up. Before she could hide the emotions on her face, Bai Xue looked at her and asked worriedly: "Sister Guihong, are you okay?"
Fu Mingyue obviously heard Bai Xue's voice, her eyes were light, and she didn't care whether the person in Bai Xue's mouth was the person she knew before. She suppressed the relaxation in her eyebrows and returned to her usual indifference.
"Okay, I'll drive, and you stay with Mingyue."
The assistant gave a funny salute and said: "Promise to complete the task!"
Fu Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled, answering the assistant's questions from time to time in an easy-going manner.
They gradually walked away, as if Fang Guihong's heart was taken away.
Fang Guihong looked at Bai Xue's number plate and said calmly: "I'm going to the bathroom to smoke a cigarette. I'll be back soon."
"Okay..Okay."
She quickly caught up with Fu Mingyue and found that there was no one in the corridor, so she boldly called: "Wait!"
Fu Mingyue did not look back. The curious assistant turned to look at Fang Guihong and said, "Are you calling us?"
Fu Mingyue frowned impatiently and glanced at the elevator. She had no choice but to stop and wait for the elevator to arrive.
Fang Guihong chased after her. She panted and looked at Fu Mingyue greedily.
"Mingyue, I'm sorry, I was forced to have no choice at the beginning."
Fu Mingyue was unmoved and continued to stare at the elevator. The assistant also realized that Fang Guihong was a bad person. With a glare and a push with both hands, she pushed Fang Guihong far away.
Fang Guihong swallowed her saliva. She would be thirsty when she was extremely nervous, so she said again: "Mingyue, we are still friends, right?"
She longed for Fu Mingyue's forgiveness, but Fu Mingyue was looking forward to the elevator coming soon. Just as she was hoping, the elevator door opened with a beep, and Fu Mingyue and her assistant once again left Fang Guihong's sight. The elevator door slowly closed and they disappeared.
Fang Guihong never got a response from Fu Mingyue. She couldn't bear the pain anymore, covered her face and cried.
The assistant hesitated to speak, moving hee mouth, but she was too embarrassed to open her mouth and ask Fu Mingyue who that person was.
Fu Mingyue said: "She is just a stranger."
"Understood!"
Fu Mingyue raised her eyebrows with mockery in her eyes. As long as her life gets better and better, it will be the greatest revenge on them.
When Tian Rongrong drove up to Fu Mingyue, both of them kept silent about what happened before. Tian Rongrong put her arms on the car window and said, "Get in the car, what are you doing standing there in a daze?"
Fu Mingyue turned around and asked, "Are you smoking?"
Tian Rongrong smiled, "Do you smell it? Fortunately, I opened the window to let the smell out."
She was a little curious, "Can Xiaoli smoke?"
"Her? Of course she does, but she rarely smokes. She smoked a few cigarettes when she was under great pressure. It was not easy for Xiaoli when she first debuted. There were all kinds of monsters and ghosts in the circle. Sometimes she really needed this cigarette to relieve fatigue."
There was an emotion in Tian Rongrong's eyes that Fu Mingyue couldn't understand. She probably wanted Fu Mingyue to feel more sorry for Tang Li, so she told the past and said, "I know you have a grudge against me because of that day. That's probably why I refused Tangli to sign you. But I don't regret it. She and I have gone hand in hand along the way and suffered a lot. That's why I chose to leave the company with Tangli to work alone. I trust her the most in the industry. This is the confidence and trust gained from working together. I am not her, and I won't have that much kindness towards you, but now it seems that she does have a good vision."
Tian Rongrong teased: "You don't mind if I smoke another cigarette, right?"
Fu Mingyue and her assistant did not refute.
Tian Rongrong looked at their clear eyes and suddenly didn't want to smoke anymore. She always felt that it would lead them to bad ways, so she changed her mind and said, "Forget it, I won't smoke anymore, so that Tang Li won't say that I taught you bad. I don't dare to teach Fu Mingyue bad, let's leave it to Tangli."
She said something ambiguous and saw Fu Mingyue's shyness. She shook her head in surprise: "You are really only interested in Tang Li's affairs. Your face is turning red."
The assistant blinked her eyes and thought to herself: Sister Rongrong was right, Mingyue is really blushing!
"Let's drive." Fu Mingyue faced the car window awkwardly, avoiding the assistant's probing eyes.
Tian Rongrong laughed. Seeing Fu Mingyue's appearance, she was no longer as worried about this relationship as before. As long as Fu Mingyue treated Tang Li sincerely, she would have no other opinions. She didn't want Tang Li to return disappointed. The feeling of love breakup was uncomfortable. She had broken up two years ago and just saw the back of that person. She still remembered the past and couldn't hold it back, so she smoked a cigarette.
"Will Xiaoli take you home today?"
Fu Mingyue raised her lips, "Well, you know that too, right?"
"Of course I know. Otherwise, who do you think arranged for her to fly out of town a few days ago? It wasn't me. I just squeezed out this free day for her. Oh, there's nothing I can do, she's too popular."
"Hey, Sister Rongrong, are you showing off?"
"I can't show off my artist anymore? Little girl, eat my snacks and make fun of me."
Fu Mingyue listened to their bickering and thought of Tang Li with gentle eyes. The irritability in her heart caused by Fang Guihong was soothed. Fu Mingyue exhaled her frustration. She really wanted to see her soon, but she didn't know what day it would be. I am quite curious as to what good show is waiting for me.
Tian Rongrong seemed to be completing a relay race. She brought Fu Mingyue back to the studio safely and smoothly, and then it was left to Tang Li to handle the rest of the journey.
The main driver was replaced, and Fu Mingyue also moved from the back seat to the passenger seat.
Tangli lowered the window and said to Tian Rongrong in disgust: "Why don't you leave? Do you want me to hit you by staying at the front of the car?"
Tian Rongrong pursed her lips and cursed angrily: "You're kicking me out before I can say a word to you? If I had known, I should have smoked in front of Fu Mingyue and let her inhale second-hand smoke!"
She cursed and turned away. Tang Li pointed at her back and said to Fu Mingyue, "She still smokes? I said it smells so good in the car that I have a headache. She must be wearing perfume."
Fu Mingyue smiled, hooked Tangli's shoulders, leaned against her, and closed the car window. When outsiders couldn't see her, she kissed Tangli's lips unscrupulously, feeling Tangli's sweetness.
Tangli was so overwhelmed by Fu Mingyue's passionate side that she couldn't get any more angry. She put her arm around Fu Mingyue's waist and responded to her gently.
The two kissed inseparably. In the end, Tangli ended the kiss, and she had a chance to breathe. Tangli's eyes were wet, and she hugged Fu Mingyue and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry today?"
They kissed without saying a word. This kind of treatment surprised and delighted Tangli. It was quite exciting to do it once in a while, so Tangli also enjoyed it.
Fu Mingyue leaned half of her body in Tangli's arms. She traced Tangli's lips with her warm fingers and said, "I feel sorry for you. I want to kiss you when I see you."
"Do you feel sorry for me?"
Fu Mingyue looked at her intently and said: "I heard Tian Rongrong said that you also smoked. She said that you would only smoke a few when you were in trouble. I didn't know you before, so I couldn't feel sorry for you. But I know you now, of course I have to use my way to love you."
Tangli had thought about many hypotheses, but she had not thought of this. She did not think that those things in the past were problems. After all, they were all solved by her in the end, right?
After listening to Fu Mingyue's words, her smile became very sweet, and she kissed Fu Mingyue's forehead gently. This was a kiss that had nothing to do with lust, only full love in it.
Tangli took the initiative to show weakness, peeling off her hard protective layer, revealing her softest side, said: "The smell of smoke is not good at all. I choked a few times when I first smoked, but I gradually learned to do it. Rongrong is just a partner, there are some things I don't want to say in front of her, it feels very embarrassing, but I have you now, and you will listen to those words hidden in my heart, right?"
Fu Mingyue stroked her hair and said softly: "Of course I will."
"I met Fang Guihong today."
Tangli couldn't remember who this person was for a while. Fu Mingyue explained, and then she remembered who Fang Guihong was.
"She came to see you?" Tangli's expression immediately changed. Fu Mingyue shook her head with a smile and said, "I met her accidentally, but she didn't come to see me. Fang Guihong looks much older. I thought she would be very good."
Tang Li knew that Fang Guihong was Fu Mingyue's former agent, but with the operation of Tang Haoran's banknote ability, Fang Guihong sold Fu Mingyue. It can be said that the two people have severed their ties.
Tang Li rubbed her cheek with her palm and muttered: "Isn't it normal for her to have a bad life? As soon as you leave, that company will be completely useless. Tang Haoran doesn't care about such a small company at all. It's just for fun. Just wait and see. Fang Guihong may be unemployed soon. For a black-hearted agent like her, it is unlikely that a formal entertainment company will want her. She will probably have to change careers unless she wants to continue to work in a small workshop company."
Fu Mingyue mentioned Fang Guihong not to let Tang Li guess her fate, but to thank Tang Li. She couldn't imagine what it would be like without meeting Tang Li, but she knew it would be particularly miserable, so she worked hard, She studied the script carefully in order to repay Tang Li as quickly as possible, and at least earn back the liquidated damages, so that she would not feel guilty and feel that she owed Tang Li.
During the period when she was first signed by Tang Li, she didn't have much confidence and was very afraid that she would become someone who couldn't be support and couldn't become famous.
Anxiety becomes motivation, and only when you are busy can you control the chaos in your mind, so Fu Mingyue wants to get a result as soon as possible, at least to see the hope of success.
Fortunately, she can take care of the entertainment industry.
She became famous, and a lot of variety shows and scripts came to her.
This also shows that Tangli's vision was correct, and she did not disappoint Tangli.
Fu Mingyue lay in Tangli's arms and said affectionately: "Xiaoli, thank you."
"What are you doing, saying such polite words?"
Fu Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled. She leaned against Tang Li's ear, breathed softly and said, "Have I ever told you that I like you very much."
Tangli cleared her throat and muttered, "That's really not the case."
Fu Mingyue sat up and put her hands on the seat. She stared at Tangli intently and said affectionately: "I love you."
Love words are worthless if they are spoken too much, so a sudden love word like Fu Mingyue's is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Tangli's eyelashes trembled, and she finally collapsed under Fu Mingyue's gaze. She hugged Fu Mingyue tightly and sighed softly. "Baby."
Not only did Fu Mingyue rarely say love words, but Tangli also rarely said such overly intimate words.
Her "baby" made Fu Mingyue chuckle, pecked Tangli's lips, and coaxed: "Can you just call me baby from now on?"
"Do you really want to listen?"
"Can this be fake?"
Tangli agreed to the matter bravely and said, "Then when I call you baby, you have to call me sister."
"No problem, good sister."
Tangli smiled with satisfaction, pressed the back of her head with his palm, and couldn't help but kiss her again.
[Ahem, have you forgotten something big? ]
[I know Tangtang has no time to talk to me now, but there are some things that I, as your binding system, still need to mention. ]
[Based on today's developments, you should be driving, not kissing! ]
Wait, kissing seems to be another kind of driving, so they are also driving?
No, this is all such a mess! It's all Tangtang's fault for leading the innocent me into trouble!
Tangli raised her hand to turn off the lights in the car, eagerly deepening the kiss and answering with her heart.
"After kissing your girlfriend, and then torturing the scumbag, this is the correct plot development."
"Don't be anxious."
