Chapter 74: 073 Return of Superstar in Entertainment Circle (18)
“Do you really think so?” Qi Zihua hadn’t slept well these past two days, with dark circles under his eyes, he looked at Sang Xue, his gaze somewhat deep, “The role in ‘Tomorrow’s Sun’ was originally prepared for Ye Shaohua, it was meant for her from the start.”
Sang Xue didn’t understand why, after she had been abroad for a trip, Qi Zihua had become like this.
She looked at Qi Zihua with some pain, “If everything can be solved with money, then what’s the point of our existence? I dieted for half a month for ‘The Day After Tomorrow,’ only to be told this? Can’t I strive to get the lead role in ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ based on my own acting skills?”
“Fine,” Qi Zihua lit a cigarette, and said indifferently, “This afternoon at two o’clock, the main actress audition for ‘The Day After Tomorrow.’
In fact, Ye Shaohua didn’t even take his calls, he had no opportunity to thrust this role into her hands.
Dieted for half a month? How does that compare to Ye Shaohua, who silently filmed fight scenes with serious injuries for half a month?
If Nuoman hadn’t appeared, they would probably not even know that the woman had such severe injuries while filming.
Compared to Sang Xue, who constantly whines and issues notices to sell a hardworking persona, Qi Zihua suddenly understood something, crying children get the sweets.
“Thank you, Young Master Qi.” Hearing this, Sang Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as there was a fair chance to compete, how could anyone else be her match, especially Ye Shaohua?
Seeing that Qi Zihua had no intention of speaking to her anymore, Sang Xue pursed her lips and then left the office.
Today, she finally realized that with money in this world, one can indeed do as they please.
Watching her leave, Qi Zihua didn’t move for a long time, blaming himself for most of how things had turned out; he could almost say Sang Xue was innocent. How is he to deal with this innocent person?
When he decided to be with Sang Xue previously, it was only because she stayed in that dangerous situation, which touched his heart.
But no matter the process, she still went down the mountain with the butler and others.
Only Ye Shaohua stubbornly said she would stay up the mountain, but in the end, it was she who alone led the group of men in black away and almost died saving him.
He knew that being with her was impossible now, Qi Zihua knew that with his eyes closed, all he could see was that person’s shadow.

After telling Brother Liang that the issue with the role was resolved, Sang Xue relaxed and went to the mall to buy things for the people at the orphanage.
She came from an orphanage, and Brother Liang had even hyped up an image of her as strong and independent.
That made the netizens sympathize with her even more.
Every time she bought things for the orphanage, she was very generous, so the children there really liked her. Even Qi Zihua had initially noticed her because of her kindness.
Even though she didn’t have nice things for herself, she purchased so many things for the orphanage kids.
“Lady, there’s not enough money on your card,” said the cashier at the mall, looking at her clothes with a complicated expression, when it was time to pay.
Hearing this, Sang Xue’s face stiffened.
“Sorry…” Although she was wearing sunglasses, her face was red as if it were bleeding, “I don’t want these things anymore…”
She fled the mall in a rush, then went to the nearby bank to check her funds.
Although she had acted in a few movies and taken on a few engagements, she was still a newcomer, only receiving newcomer’s pay. The assistant agent’s fee had to be deducted from her salary, among various other expenses, and the company would still take a 45% commission.
Sang Xue grew up in an orphanage, but Mr. and Mrs. Ye had always been kind to her, depositing five-figure sums into her account every time, and she always contributed when buying things for Ye Shaohua.
So, the things she used were mostly mid-to-high-end.
That’s how she managed to be so generous when buying things for the orphanage kids.
It could be said that although she was an orphan, she never worried about clothes, food, or not having money to spend.
Now that Mr. and Mrs. Ye had cut off contact with her, the money that should have been deposited into her account hadn’t arrived, and they hadn’t bought her anything. All her expenses were coming from her own account.
As a result, she was running out of money on her card.
However, Sang Xue hadn’t realized all this. She only thought about how Mr. and Mrs. Ye, refusing to discern right from wrong for the sake of Ye Shaohua, had really cut off contact with her, inevitably feeling some resentment towards the Ye family.

Ye Shaohua hadn’t wanted to come to the audition, but the director of ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ knew Director Zhou, who had pleaded with her to attend.
Ye Shaohua couldn’t refuse Director Zhou’s kindness, so she came.
She just hadn’t expected to see Sang Xue and He Musheng there at the audition site.
Most artists in the Entertainment Circle were aware that ‘The Day After Tomorrow”s director had taken an instant liking to Ye Shaohua, so they didn’t bother coming to embarrass themselves. Generally, they auditioned for the role of the second or third female lead.
“Shaohua, slow down. I’ll speak with the director in a bit. You can rest, have some soup before your audition; this soup was given to me by Uncle,” Zhou Qing said, carrying a thermal flask while following behind Ye Shaohua, taking meticulous care of her along with several assistants.
Sang Xue didn’t make an effort to greet Ye Shaohua. Her stock would be different once her two blockbuster films hit the market.
If it were before, she would’ve definitely mentioned her trip to Hollywood to Ye Shaohua.
But now, she didn’t feel like telling her at all. She didn’t want Ye Shaohua to benefit from this opportunity.
“Shaohua has always been like that, but I didn’t expect her to act the same in the drama crew, even more high-profile than Brother Musheng,” Sang Xue said, watching the crew members moving a chair for Ye Shaohua.
She thought He Musheng would agree, but unexpectedly, this time He Musheng remained silent, just looking at her somewhat strangely.
“Don’t stress yourself out too much. This lead role is definitely yours,” Zhou Qing said in a voice that was neither loud nor soft, “We’re just going through the motions.”

Hearing this, Sang Xue scoffed quietly.
They still didn’t know that Qi Zihua hadn’t let the director make any pre-selections, and Zhou Qing didn’t know either that Ye Shaohua had only a pretty face but no actual acting talent.
No one knew this better than her. That’s why the director of “Jianghu” had taken an immediate liking to her.
Usually, after auditions, it took a couple of days before informing the artists of the results. However, the lead role for ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ was announced on the spot.
When the director emerged, Sang Xue stood up, a moderately curved smile on her lips, her eyes stealing glances at Ye Shaohua, unable to conceal her triumph.
However, the director walked right past her, directly towards Ye Shaohua, beaming, “Little Shaohua, I’ve wanted to work with you for so long, and this time I finally got the chance.”
At this sight, Sang Xue’s anger surged. Looking at Ye Shaohua and the others nearby, she sneered, “How could it be her? Ye Shaohua, I didn’t expect you’re still incapable of learning your lesson! No matter the production crew, you’re willing to splurge money; how much did you spend this time?!”
