Lifetime of Bliss And Contentment With You

Lin Yan listened quietly to Jiang Yiming. “I understand…”

Even though she understood, how could she do it right away?

Pei Nanxu was an award-winning actor whose acting skills were acclaimed. Hardly anyone would be able to crush his aura in the entire entertainment industry.

In that case, how could she, a new actress who had merely done some intense research and practice, be able to?

However, it seemed as though Jiang Yiming had been deeply impressed and satisfied with her audition.

Perhaps Jiang Yiming wouldn’t have had such high expectations if he hadn’t seen her audition. Now, he expected much more from her.

“Alright, it’s fine. Let’s try it again,” Jiang Yiming said warmly.

Lin Yan nodded and inhaled deeply. “Okay.”

This time, Lin Yan tried to cast away Pei Nanxu’s presence so that she wouldn’t be affected.

“President Lin, welcome. My apologies for the lack of hospitality.” Pei Nanxu sounded as though he wasn’t furious about Lin Pianruo’s sudden arrival. He was calm and unruffled, and this quiet and natural arrogance made Lin Pianruo feel as though she was an insignificant person.

“President Chen, you have merely encountered a small setback. Why have you collapsed?” Lin Yan repeated her lines once more.

“Cut!” Jiang Yiming yelled before he blurted out, “Lin Yan! What happened? This was worse than the previous take! Remember that you can’t be oppressed by Nanxu! Don’t be crushed by him!”

Lin Yan was close to tears. “Director Jiang, I didn’t mean to, but he is Pei Nanxu! The only actor in the entertainment industry who has made a grand slam and reached the peak the moment he debuted! He is a critically-acclaimed, award-winning actor. Besides, I reckon that not even the most shrewd, experienced businessmen in the entertainment industry would be able to crush him…”

Her idol was simply too awesome!

But wait, someone could indeed crush his aura…

Pei Yucheng…

Pei Nanxu heard Lin Yan and chuckled. “Miss Lin, you are flattering me.”

Jiang Yiming nodded in agreement. “Lin Yan, of course I’m aware of this. I’m fully aware, which is why I was worried about Lin Pianruo’s character! Luckily, I discovered you! As long as you unleash the potential you showed that day during the audition… Actually, even if you showed me… just half, it would be enough! Just search for it!”

Lin Yan was speechless…

That audition again!

F*ck! Who had taken over her consciousness? Has she really been so darn good?

“Lin Yan, I have faith in you. You can do it! Try again!” Jiang Yiming was still confident in her ability.

“Errr… Okay.”

Lin Yan had to continue.

However, Jiang Yiming was still unsatisfied with the next takes.

Lin Yan felt as though she was about to collapse after a few more takes, yet Jiang Yiming kept insisting that her aura wasn’t ‘enough’.

“No, this won’t work… Forget it. Take a break first. Lin Yan, go and regulate your emotions.” Jiang Yiming looked rather gloomy and upset.

He had harbored a lot of hope, so he was even more disappointed.

In the end, Lin Yan slumped heavily against the chair, feeling lifeless. “I feel like my body is being emptied…”

Pei Nanxu sat down next to Lin Yan and comforted her. “Take it slowly. Don’t overexert yourself. You’re a newbie and you’re doing well. Director Jiang has more expectations of you.”

Lin Yan sighed heavily. “I know…”

She glanced at Pei Nanxu. “Mr. Pei, did I act really well at the audition?”
