Chapter 674: Chapter 673 Untitled Chapter_1 Chapter 674: Chapter 673 Untitled Chapter_1 “Lanlan, what are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought.” Yong Xiaoman noticed her daughter deep in thought at the table, and stepped forward to pat her shoulder.
“Mum, I’m fine. I was just thinking about the TV drama ‘Demon Flame’. I went for an audition and I was surprisingly rejected!”
“You are the Young Mistress of the Lan Family; you can have anything you want, why do you insist on stepping into the entertainment circle?” Yong Xiaoman really did not understand her daughter. Her sworn enemy, An Yuqian, used to be in the entertainment industry which gave her a negative impression of it.
“Mum, you don’t understand. It’s because I am the Young Mistress of the Lan Family that I cannot lose to anyone! I am the best. I will not lose to Qiao Xiaren!”
A secretive smile appeared on Lan Lan’s face, “Mum, I heard that the producer of ‘Demon Flame’ is Uncle Zheng Qiu?”
She had already gathered a lot of information about ‘Demon Flame’ and didn’t give it too much thought when she saw Zheng Qiu’s name. But she suddenly recalled that it was Zheng Qiu who cooperated with the Lan Corporation’s film production business a few days ago.
“Zheng Qiu, your Uncle Zheng?”
Yong Xiaoman suddenly realized that she knew this person. She had often interacted with him because of business and she had developed some affection for his wife.
“Mum, I want to play the role of Bing Yan, the male protagonist. Could you help me talk to dad about this?”
After a long contemplation, Lan Lan finally expressed her thoughts.
What’s wrong with relying on her background? This time, she really needed her family’s influence. She would prove to everyone that she could outperform Qiao Xiaren.
Although this approach might attract a lot of haters, a star should fear obscurity, not criticism!
“Alright. I will go talk to your dad.” Yong Xiaoman had always been indulgent towards her daughter, especially now that her rival was Yuqian’s daughter. She felt an urgent sense of responsibility.
Why did that vixen have a daughter who was more excellent than hers?
She was nothing more than an illegitimate child.
Yong Xiaoman immediately went to find Lan Xinhan. Lan Xinhan was initially in his study dealing with work and was getting impatient with the noises outside.
An Yuqian was quietly reading in another corner of the study. She never disturbed her husband’s work and calmly kept him company.
Ever since she retired from the limelight years ago, her sole comfort was the company of her husband, filling every single dull day.
Upon hearing Yong Xiaoman’s voice from outside the door, her eyebrows furrowed. Yong Xiaoman and her were hostile towards each other.
Ever since she remarried, they always avoided each other. Even though the way they interact was quite awkward, they could not help it.
Yong Xiaoman was always disgusted by her intimate relationship with Lan Xinhan, so she would never appear where they could potentially show affection to each other. Why was she coming to look for them in the study today?
While lost in thought, Yong Xiaoman entered the study. She was so arrogant that she didn’t even spare An Yuqian a glance and walked straight towards Lan Xinhan.
“Xinhan, I have something to tell you. Can you ask An Yuqian to step out first?”
The way she acted like a senior wife casting out the concubine made An Yuqian extremely uncomfortable.
Lan Xinhan adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, “You can speak here. Also, do not barge in here in the future. Remember, although I allowed you to stay in the Lan Family, we made it clear that we are not married. Remember to avoid giving people the wrong impression.”
Lan Xinhan was disgusted by his ex-wife, but during their divorce, Yong Xiaoman asked to stay in the Lan Family. This request was so ridiculous that he strongly opposed it. Yet, Yong Xiaoman insisted that she would not agree to the divorce unless he agreed to her request.
