Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Little Six listened to Jiang Ling’er’s words, and thought to himself that women’s money was too easy to earn!
After lunch, Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan took a walk around the campus.
Wen Nuan looked at her phone and suddenly exclaimed.
She said, “Ling’er, Ling’er, look, it’s trending again. This picture of you is so gorgeous.”
Jiang Ling’er looked over, her face somewhat embarrassed.
She said, “Um… is that really me?”
Was she really making such a fierce expression while eating cake? And why was there a picture of her and Li Yu together? What was the photographer’s intent? Such images could lead to serious misunderstandings.
Wen Nuan didn’t notice Jiang Ling’er’s expression. She said, “Ling’er, did something upset you back then, or did you just hate the cake?”
Jiang Ling’er stood there awkwardly. At the time, Li Yu had been provoking her, and Jiang Ling’er couldn’t win the confrontation, so she vented her anger on the cake.
She said, “You were there at the time too. Don’t you know what happened? Eating cake was the only thing I could do. That cake tasted really good, by the way.”
Wen Nuan asked, “Really? Was that cake so delicious?”
Jiang Ling’er replied, “1 have a sweet tooth, and I’ve tried many types of cakes. That one was really good. It must have been made with great care. It was sweet without being cloying, with excellent texture. It matched the theme of the day and had a fantastic artistic vibe.”
Wen Nuan stood aside and suddenly cursed, “Reading these comments really pisses me off.”
Jiang Ling’er was dumbfounded. What had Wen Nuan read to make her so upset?
Wen Nuan was visibly irate. She said, “These people are nothing but trash, talking about ‘two-timing’? Damn it, I have to clap back at them.”
Jiang Ling’er immediately understood the situation upon hearing Wen Nuan’s remarks. She said, “Nuan Nuan, this is clearly the work of marketing accounts deliberately trying to defame us. Don’t pay attention to them. Look, aren’t there any trending topics related to Bai Xue’s piano performance?”
Wen Nuan checked and responded sarcastically, “She did play well, but there are many other great live performances that overshadow Bai Xue’s, so Bai Xue isn’t trending at all. However, there’s a post about Zhu Xiaotong with the title ‘Beauty Overwhelms the Audience’.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “You don’t say. Zhu Xiaotong’s outfit was indeed quite attractive. Nuannuan, have you ever thought about your future?”
Wen Nuan was puzzled and asked, “Huh? Why are you suddenly asking me this?”
Jiang Ling’er gazed at the sky and smiled, saying, “Just curious. Going to and from school every day, it seems fulfilling but also somewhat boring. What do you think?”
Wen Nuan was taken aback and sighed softly, “You’re right. But isn’t that what life is all about?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and looked into the distance, reminiscing about some past memories.
Wen Nuan noticed Jiang Ling’er’s thoughtful expression and asked with concern, “Ling’er, what’s wrong? You’re acting a bit strange.”
Jiang Ling’er shook her head and said, “It’s nothing.”
Wen Nuan immediately changed the subject, suggesting, “We don’t have classes this afternoon. How about going to the theater?”
Jiang Ling’er thought for a moment and agreed, “Sure, let’s check if there are any opportunities for extras.”
Wen Nuan eagerly said, “Great, let’s go now. If the counselor sees us later, they might stall us.”
Jiang Ling’er nodded in agreement, and the two of them headed to the theater.
Once they arrived, Jiang Ling’er recognized many people there. It didn’t take long for them to be assigned to a theater production as extras.
The two of them chatted in the dressing room.
Wen Nuan asked, “Ling’er, your acting skills are already excellent. Why are you willing to work as an extra?”
Jiang Ling’er was taken aback but then smiled, saying, “There’s a lot to learn that’s not in the script. 1 can’t say I have great acting skills right now. Plus, the more you see and learn, the better it is.”
Wen Nuan commented, “You’re quite strict with yourself. It can be exhausting.”
Jiang Ling’er inquired, “By the way, Nuan Nuan, how did you end up choosing acting? Honestly, 1 think you’re more suitable for music.”
Wen Nuan was a bit embarrassed as she replied, “1 can’t really explain it. My ideal career is to become a professional security personnel. How about you?”
Jiang Ling’er was surprised by Wen Nuan’s answer but remembered her impressive combat skills. She said, “1 just want to experience every kind of role.”
Wen Nuan admired her and said, “No wonder you’re such a good actress.”
Jiang Ling’er humbly responded, “Stop praising me. You always do that, and I’ll get carried away.”
In an idle car, Little Six and his older brother sat in silence.
The elder brother seemed hesitant to speak up.. Little Six couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked, “Bro, what’s going on?”
