Cen Sai'er cried as she said, "Because of the drunk driving incident at the beginning of last year, I had to pay millions in compensation, and since then I haven't been able to get any acting roles..."

"I finally landed a role, and then this happened—I have to pay millions in taxes to the company..."

"My family has run out of money..."

"Could you lend me 3.6 million?"

"I promise I will definitely pay you back..."

"Or, or you could talk to the company for me and ask them to give us a year's grace period, no, six months..."

"Cen Sai'er, have you no shame?" Sheng Jing mocked. "We've been broken up for over a year, and you still come to me asking for money?"

"When we broke up, I gave you my car, which was worth over a million yuan, and helped you sign with my agency. Don't you think I did enough for you?"

“That’s not how it is…” Cen Sai’er pleaded desperately, “I’m really desperate, I have no choice but to come and beg you.”

"Now only you can help me..."

"I love acting."

"Acting is my lifelong pursuit and dream."

"If I can't pay the taxes by noon tomorrow, I might become a disgraced celebrity..."

"Sorry, I can't help you." Sheng Jing saw his friend come out of bed wearing a see-through nightgown and quickly interrupted him, "If you really don't have any money, go sell yourself. Don't bother me."

"Brother Jing, please save me..."

Sheng Jing hung up the phone without reacting, blocked the other party, and then reached out to hug the woman who was rushing towards him.

"Baby, you're such a pure and innocent girl in public, but why are you so slutty in private..."

"Aren't you the same way..."

The two fell onto the bed and rolled around in a ball.

That evening, Sheng Jing returned home on time as usual, without Sheng Ai catching him doing anything wrong.

Because he had enjoyed himself so much, Sheng Jing slept very well that night.

After getting up the next day.

Shengjing entered the system store and used the points he had worked hard to earn over the past few days to improve his "charm of voice". Then he went to the hotel to audition for Director Li's big IP.

All great directors value acting skills.

Director Li places particular emphasis on voice and dialogue.

Therefore, Shengjing has been focusing on practicing his lines these past few days, and he's also using his points to improve his "voice".

After a day of auditions.

He didn't get the second male lead role he wanted, but he got the third male lead role instead.

He was not very satisfied with this.

Considering he's a top star and was nominated for Best Actor, how could he possibly play the third male lead in a movie?

So embarrassing...

The agent, however, was delighted and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "This role was added later. He's the face of the movie, and the acting isn't too difficult."

"You should act well."

"As long as the movie does well at the box office and receives good reviews, the company will help you get a Best Newcomer Award, and then you can officially enter the film industry."

"Isn't this much better than acting in TV dramas and idol dramas?"

"Best New Film Actor?" Sheng Jing's eyes lit up, and he patted his agent on the shoulder. "I'm going all out this time."

"You absolutely have to help me win this award."

"I'm willing to pay any price to win this award."

The agent understood: "Don't worry, this is also the company's goal."

The two laughed after they finished speaking.

After laughing.

The agent said, "Let's go, freshen up, change your clothes, and get ready to attend tonight's television awards ceremony."

Sheng Jing said with little interest, "To win the Best Actor award, you need seniority."

"With my current qualifications, I definitely won't win the Best Actor award."

The agent said, "Although the matter from last time has been resolved, it has still affected your public image to some extent."

"The company has put in a lot of effort recently to solidify your position and wants to help you win the Best Actor award."

"You might have a chance tonight."

"Really?" Sheng Jing's eyes lit up again. "If the company can help me win the Best Actor award, I'll sign my next contract with the company again."

As he dressed, he nervously called Sheng Ai.

He said he would be attending the television festival awards ceremony tonight and requested to take the night off, not having dinner at home and going home to sleep later.

The agent listened in amazement.

This top-tier young master, who always does whatever he wants, has to ask his sister for permission to not come home for dinner at night.

It seems that Sheng Jing really cares about this younger sister.

The agent had no idea how flustered Sheng Jing was when he made that call, fearing that Sheng Ai would refuse.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Ai readily agreed and even wished him success.

Sheng Jing breathed a long sigh of relief; his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally returned to its normal place.

"Thank you, Xiao Ai, I will try my best."

He hung up the phone and walked out of the dressing room with a big smile.

There were other things he hadn't considered.

After making the call, Sheng Ai said to the remaining Sheng Jiafu and Sheng Jiagui, "I'm going to secretly attend my second brother's TV awards ceremony and give him a surprise."

"Do you want to come with me?"

Sheng Jiafu and Sheng Jiagui shook their heads: "We're not going."

Sheng Ai didn't insist: "Then I'll go alone."

Sheng Jiafu and Sheng Jiagui exchanged glances without showing any emotion, both thinking to themselves.

Shengjing, good luck to you...

There are still unexpected surprises in Shengjing.

Amidst the intense anticipation of the audience, the host announced the winner of the "Best Actor" award as follows: "Congratulations to Sheng Jing for becoming this year's Violet TV King—"

When Sheng Jing walked onto the podium with a big smile and immense joy.

He never expected this.

The girl sitting in front of the TV, tears streaming down her face, picked up a small knife, placed it on her left wrist, and made a sharp cut.

"Brother Jing, congratulations on winning the Best Actor award you've always dreamed of! May your acting career continue to flourish..."

"But I can't act anymore..."

"Never again..."

"My first love..."

"My only love..."
