Translator: 549690339
When Xia Yangyang walked out of the newspaper office, she had an envelope with 20,000 yuan in her hand.
Xia Yangyang took out a business card given to her by a driver and dialed the phone number on it.
“Hello, who is this,” a deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
The voice had a commanding aura that made Xia Yangyang nervously blurt out, “May I speak to Mr. Shen? I’m the one who hit your car last time. I have prepared the compensation money, how can I transfer it to you conveniently?” “Cash?”
Xia Yangyang hesitated for a moment: “Um, yes.”
“I’m a bit busy now, wait for me on the 19th floor of the Time Building.”
With that, the person on the other end hung up.
Xia Yangyang found this somewhat strange. Even though it was cash, he could have just given her his bank account number for her to transfer the money, why complicate things?
But then Xia Yangyang thought she should apologize for scratching such an expensive car in person.
Since she had no classes in the morning, Xia Yangyang headed directly to the Time Building.
Not far from Shengyuan, the Time Building was also a landmark building in Feng City.
The Time Building housed the Time Economy Entertainment Company, a golden castle, half of the top stars in the entertainment industry were under its contract, among them, the most popular and top-tiered was Shen Manbing.
She was surprised that the man who looked like a business elite was actually working in an entertainment company.
Without giving it much thought, Xia Yangyang went straight to the 19th floor.
When she got out of the elevator, she was shocked by the sight before her.
Hundreds of young women were gathered in the long corridor, the scene was spectacular.
As Xia Yangyang walked past, to her surprise, she saw Xia Weiwei in the crowd.
Upon seeing Xia Yangyang, Xia Weiwei looked at her with mockery in her eyes, “Xia Yangyang, I didn’t expect you to try out for an audition too. But look at you, underdressed and not knowing it’s a ballroom scene.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t understand what she meant by an ‘audition’.
However, she noticed that all the girls were dressed in formal gowns and heavily made up, while she was dressed in jeans and a white shirt.
Someone next to her asked Weiwei, “Is she… your sister?”
Xia Weiwei replied, “She’s not my sister. She’s just a burden to our family.”
People around her burst into laughter.
Xia Yangyang remained calm, “Xia Weiwei, if I remember correctly, you have your college entrance exams tomorrow, don’t you? Does dad know about this?”
It was June, Xia Weiwei was in her senior year of high school, and she should be preparing for her college entrance examination.
Xia Weiwei responded, “The college entrance examination is just a formality for me. I’m destined to become a star in the future. The ‘Cinderella’s Magic Romance’ crew is holding nationwide auditions now. If I’m chosen, I’ll become famous overnight. The college entrance exam shouldn’t stand in my way.”
Xia Yangyang was speechless, but too lazy to argue with her.
Xia Weiwei continued, “Xia Yangyang, don’t bother, they won’t choose you looking . Stop embarrassing yourself here.”
“I didn’t come for the audition.”
“Then what are you here for?”
“You don’t need to know.”
Xia Weiwei said, “Since you’re not here for the audition, don’t stand in the way. They’re about to start shooting the audition documentary. If you don’t want to appear in the frame, you could hide in a room.”
Xia Weiwei pointed to a room behind Xia Yangyang, “That’s an empty conference room, you could wait in there.”
Xia Yangyang was there to meet someone anyway.
She didn’t want to stand in a crowded hallway with so many people.
Without giving it much thought, she turned towards the conference room that Xia Weiwei pointed out.
Xia Yangyang faintly heard Xia Weiwei and a group of people around her laughing maliciously..
