Actually, she also had her own selfish motives.

The Chinese New Year is just around the corner. This is her first time having a family, and this year is also her first time experiencing celebrating the New Year with her family in China.

Whether we can continue to have such a peaceful New Year is another matter.

Days passed in the same way, and Qi Jiu's life seemed to have returned to normal. She went between her dormitory and the classroom every day, and when she had free time, she would go to her own little nest or return to the Shen family.

During this period, director Yan Changning conducted auditions for each character as quickly as possible, and the day for joining the crew arrived soon.

"Qiqi, how long will it take you to join the crew? You've only been back for a short time."

Jiang Xin looked a little reluctant. Actually, she really enjoyed taking classes with Qi Jiu, but this guy was just too busy.

If directors hadn't approached her, she would have forgotten that this guy was an actor.

She was a popular supporting actress on the internet before.

"It might take a little longer, about two or three months? This time it's a work by director Yan Cheng Ning. After reading the script, it's considered a big production."

The girl didn't look up, focusing intently on tidying up the equipment.

"that……"

Hearing Jiang Xin's hesitant expression, the girl slowly looked up. "What's wrong?"

"The release date for 'Peace of Mind' has been set. I heard that the male lead you're working with this time is Ling Yue?"

Jiang Xin's eyes were filled with joy and anticipation. Seeing this, Qi Jiu immediately guessed what would happen next and smiled.

"Yes, we've known each other for a long time."

They had appeared on a variety show together before. At that time, Ling Yue was the male lead in the drama "Assassination". That was the first time they met.

We played a few games and got to know each other properly, and then we exchanged contact information.

Ling Yue even followed her directly on Weibo. After that, they would chat occasionally and interact on Weibo.

"Um... I can..."

"Can."

Jiang Xin was taken aback and suddenly looked up at her. "I haven't even finished speaking, and you're already doing this?"

Qi Jiu shrugged, looking nonchalant. "It's just asking for an autograph or something, right? Sure."

Previously, Ling Yue wanted to exchange ten of his autographed photos for one of hers in order to get her autograph. It sounded funny, but he actually did it.

A popular actress in the entertainment industry wants to exchange ten autographed photos for an autographed photo from a newcomer who has just debuted.

Ling Yue: "..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xin's eyes lit up considerably, and she nodded excitedly at Qi Jiu.

That day, the film crew.

Qi Jiu and Ling Yue arrived relatively early, but the crew, director, and screenwriter had already arrived before them.

"Qiqi, long time no see." Ling Yue, dressed in sportswear, waved to the girl.

When the manager and assistant next to her saw Qi Jiu, they greeted her happily.

"Long time no see, have you been very busy lately?"

Even if she didn't insist on watching, she knew that this guy had been running between film sets and variety shows lately. His last drama should have just finished, and now he's joined another production.

This schedule is quite busy.

However, Ling Yue has a really good personality, coupled with his seriousness towards his work. With his character and appearance, Ling Yue can be considered one of the most popular young actors in the entertainment industry right now.

"It's alright, it's all for the sake of making a living."

Ling Yue looked at Qi Jiu with a smile on his face, "Ever since I saw your performance, I've been thinking about when I could work with you. I never thought that wish would finally come true, especially with a film directed by Yan Changning."

The girl smiled and waved her hand.

"That is truly my honor. Generally speaking, for someone like me who doesn't have formal training, it's perfectly normal to be an extra and an unknown nobody for the first few years. I never expected that my second role would be the lead, and that I would be able to work with you."

Ling Yue looked at him and chuckled softly.

"Don't underestimate yourself. You should know that when my friends found out I was going to be working with you, they were full of envy. Your acting skills are superb; your eyes can even speak. They're also waiting for the day they can work with you."

As time went by, more and more people gathered at the venue.

"Hello, director."

Suddenly, a soft female voice came from behind, "Oh, this must be Teacher Qi Jiu? You're really amazing. You were selected by Director Yan Changning for your second project in the entertainment industry, and you even got to work with Teacher Ling Yue."

Qi Jiu didn't notice this person at first, until she heard her own name and then she realized who it was.

She subconsciously exchanged a glance with Ling Yue across from her, then turned around and saw a woman with long, delicate hair. Her assistant was carrying her bag and holding a coffee.

"Who are you……"

"you!"

The person on the other end seemed surprised by Qi Jiu's words, and their expression suddenly froze.

But she quickly recovered, "It's okay, Teacher Qi Jiu has only been in the industry for a short time, it's normal that she doesn't recognize me. I'm Tang Miaomiao, the second female lead."

Hearing this, Qi Jiu seemed to think it was normal; after all, the second female lead usually needs some time to adjust.

"Is there anything else, Teacher Tang? I need to rehearse with Teacher Ling Yue."

"No, it's nothing."

Tang Miaomiao glanced at Qi Jiu, then flicked her sleeves and left.

She had only taken a couple of steps when Ling Yue approached. "What's wrong with her...?"

"What about Yin and Yang?"

Anyone could tell from that sarcastic tone. He only said two sentences, and both were directed at her.

What? She partnered with Ling Yue right after her debut? It's normal not to know her when you first debut... What else could this be but yin and yang?

Ling Yue pursed his lips, his eyes serious as he looked at Qi Jiu.

"Tang Miaomiao's situation should also serve as a reminder to you. You've only been in the entertainment industry for a short time, while Tang Miaomiao has been in the industry for several years. Even if she ends up as the second female lead, she's definitely angry."

Seemingly afraid that Qi Jiu would be unhappy to hear this, he spoke again.

"There are quite a few people like her in this crew, you're probably the only newcomer, so you..."

The girl suddenly smiled, "I understand your reminder. Don't worry, I will definitely do a good job. Since Director Yan Changning has taken a liking to a newcomer like me, I certainly won't let him down."

Seeing that she wasn't angry, and even had a better attitude than he had back then, Ling Yue felt relieved.

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something and looked at her.

"Tang Miaomiao is unhappy about this, and she will definitely post it online. Keyboard warriors' words are not nice, so if you see any comments online in the future, don't take them seriously."

He realized that public figures, whether they do well or poorly, will be criticized online.

Even something very small, something that no one else noticed, will be blown out of proportion by netizens and used as grounds for attacking you.
