The actresses who hadn’t had their turn all frowned at Lin Yan, looking hostile and displeased.
“Errr… Did I mishear her? She is the only one who can portray Yeva? Who does she think she is? Is she Yeva in real life?”
“It’s indeed annoying to hear such boasting words. What does she mean by saying she is the only one who can act as Yeva? She may have portrayed Lin Pianruo well previously, but there are dozens of others who are better than her. How could she be compared to Lin Shuya in terms of popularity or acting skills?”
“I think she is just bragging casually.” One of the actresses sniggered coldly. “To be honest, I didn’t really think that she acted well earlier. She just showed something new. If we were to act that out, I reckon I wouldn’t lose to her. It’s her blessing that Mr. Zhou Qiao is willing to offer her a role. I didn’t imagine that she would be so snobbish as to turn the role down. How dare she have the audacity to claim that she is the only one fit to act as the Race Track’s Grim Reaper? What a mighty joke!”
…
“Miss Lin Yan, you may go back to wait for news.” The producer of Legend waved his hand impatiently.
He had never once met an actress like her. They had plainly stated that she was unsuitable to portray Yeva and even offered her another role, yet she was still unsatisfied.
“Sure, I’ll wait for good news.” Lin Yan gave Zhou Qiao and the rest a feeble smile before she turned on her heel.

Meanwhile, at Cloud Manor…
Pei Yutang was playing games on the couch. Lin Yan crept towards him and saw that he was being defeated horribly.
“Do you need an expert to help you? I promise that you will rise up in ranks.” Lin Yan settled beside Pei Yutang with a grin.
Pei Yutang glanced at Lin Yan and snapped to his senses. He hastily shook his head. “No, no, no. Sister-in-law… It’s just a game… Ranks don’t matter at all!”
Pei Yutang had sworn to himself that he would never play with Lin Yan again. How could she claim that she was an expert? He wouldn’t be willing to play with her even if she were to offer him money.
Pei Yutang could never forget the eventful, horrific game that night.
Lin Yan had to be a spy sent by their opponents.
He denied Lin Yan the chance to speak and glanced at her hastily. “Sister-in-law, why did you come back so early? How was your audition?”
“It ended.” Lin Yan nodded.
“How was it? You failed, right?” Pei Yutang gazed at her.
Lin Yan was speechless…
This kid was really a conversation stopper.
“I think so too,” Lin Yan answered honestly.
“Sister-in-law, that’s what I said. You stood no chance whatsoever. You were just wasting your time. If you have so much free time, you should…”
Lin Yan interjected with a bright smile. “I should play games with you!”
Pei Yutang trembled in fear when he heard Lin Yan. “No, no! That wasn’t what I was trying to say! Sister-in-law, if you have free time, you should go out for some afternoon tea or watch a tv drama. Playing games is a waste of your life!”
Lin Yan rolled her eyes at Pei Yutang. She couldn’t be bothered to retort. Instead, she rose and went to her room.
