"Mr. Fan, hello, may I ask what brings you here?" Gong Xiaoqiao said politely.
"With such qualifications, Miss Gong, why bother auditioning for such a minor role?"
"Everyone is really strong! I'm already satisfied to have gotten this role," she replied.
"Miss Gong is too modest. In fact... I think you'd be a perfect fit for the role of Shangguan Xianyue. I wonder if you'd honor me with your company for dinner, so we could discuss it?" The man smiled charmingly, thinking himself to be bewitching, but Gong Xiaoqiao only found him sleazy.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Fan, but I have a prior engagement," she said.
"Is that so? What a pity." The man's expression turned somewhat sour, and before leaving, he glanced at her contemptuously as if mocking her pretentiousness.
Gong Xiaoqiao sighed. Was this the legendary 'casting couch'?
