Given Gu Panpan's personality, she really wanted to pounce on the two people in front of her and tear their mouths apart. Fortunately, her assistant reacted quickly and, despite being kicked twice by Gu Panpan, forcibly pulled her away.

After Gu Panpan was dragged away, Yao Anna and Song Mengmeng exchanged a glance and couldn't help but giggle and fall back into their seats.

Song Mengmeng's audition went smoothly. Su Li had already put in a good word for her; Dixing was currently the largest investor in the drama, and since she wasn't even looking for a main role, the director, even if strict, couldn't refuse her. Besides, Song Mengmeng's performance was indeed commendable, so the director readily put a checkmark on her name.

The role that Yao Anna got was a villainous supporting character with a very high screen time in the early part of the series. Because of the importance of the role, there were many people vying for it.

After the audition, Yao Anna remained calm and didn't seem to care too much. She then went out for hot pot with Song Mengmeng.

In comparison, Gu Panpan's audition this time was a complete failure.

Just as Song Mengmeng and the others had guessed, her emotions were greatly affected. In addition, she had never focused much on studying the script, so she stumbled through the scene and was politely asked to leave.

Someone like her would never think that she is the one who is wrong.

How could someone as 'hardworking' as her make a mistake?! Even if she did make a mistake, it must be someone else's!

Walking down the hotel corridor, her complexion was extremely poor.

Compared to those women who only know how to flatter and pretend, what exactly is wrong with her?! Why, why does he have to be inferior to everyone else in every way?! And even have to be ridiculed by a newcomer who knows nothing!

Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, she instinctively reached for her lipstick to touch up her makeup, but stopped abruptly, staring silently at the mirror in front of her…

The audition results came out quickly, and to Song Mengmeng's surprise, Yao Anna ultimately got the role she auditioned for. The two girls chatted excitedly on the phone, their excitement about going together.

This excitement made Yan Di somewhat jealous. After several unsuccessful attempts to end the call, he finally had to give in and resignedly went out to help the little girl pack her luggage.

Having already revealed his identity, he didn't mind this so-called separation upon joining the group. As long as he wanted, being with the girl was never difficult; it was too easy to do it without anyone noticing.

Thinking that she was just a little baby who came into this world unfamiliar with everything, and finally found a playmate who was somewhat suitable, so be it, let her be excited for a few days!

He doesn't need to worry about it, really!

After Song Mengmeng finished her long phone conversation with Yao Anna, Yan Di had already packed her luggage.

Everything she needed was provided, including her favorite coffee and milk tea. As a result, two large suitcases were completely full, which surprised Song Mengmeng, who was there to inspect the work, and subsequently put her in a difficult position.

How is she going to move these two huge suitcases?!

"The two assistants Su Li arranged for you will come to pick you up tomorrow." Yan Di pulled the little one along as they walked towards the living room, whispering some important instructions for joining the crew: "If you're unsure about anything, just call me."

Don't listen to everything Yao Anna says. She's only been in the industry for a short time, and there are some things she can't even handle herself. Don't let her lead you astray!

As for Yao Anna, Emperor Yan felt it was best to sow discord among them, otherwise, if anything went wrong, it would be his little girl who would be heartbroken in the end.

"It's okay! I'm not a cub anymore! I'm an adult!" Song Mengmeng, who was habitually held on Yan Di's lap, protested with a slightly disgruntled fist: "I know I'll be careful, don't worry!"

Emperor Yan felt somewhat helpless, like an old father about to send his daughter out of the hospital. He hadn't thought much of it until he stepped outside and realized that he hadn't explained or arranged anything properly.

The little guy in his arms was oblivious to his own existence, displaying an air of pride and smugness that suggested he was all grown up and ready to fly away. This only made the old father, Emperor Yan, feel more and more bitter.

Well, sometimes you can't avoid the harsh realities of society!

Let this clueless little fellow face the storm!

The next morning, Su Li arrived early with two assistants to pick up Song Mengmeng so she could join the film crew.

From a certain perspective, this kind of palace drama is relatively easy. There's no need to travel around to find locations; the film studio has already set everything up, just waiting for the actors to arrive on set.

Song Mengmeng and her colleagues weren't exactly key members of the production team, so compared to the female leads who were going to attend the opening ceremony, she was only three days late joining the crew, which made things much easier for her.

Yao Anna's role was more important than hers, and she was barely qualified to attend the opening ceremony. So when Song Mengmeng was sent to the crew by Su Li, Yao Anna was able to come and pick her up and explain the current situation of the crew to her.

Actually, everything else in the crew was fine, except for one thing that Yao Anna was a little worried about. She lowered her voice and whispered to Song Mengmeng, "Gu Panpan has also been selected, and Xiao Shuyun is also in the crew, and she has quite a lot of screen time."

Is this a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road?

Song Mengmeng paused for a moment, then nodded knowingly, and sweetly reassured the somewhat worried Yao Anna: "It's okay, as long as we don't cause trouble, they can't blame us!"

Yao Anna paused for a moment, then thought about it and realized it made sense. She nodded and smiled, "Yes, you're right! Let's focus on filming, and let them cause trouble!"

Despite saying that, Song Mengmeng was still taken aback when she saw Gu Panpan on set the next day. She stood there, tilting her head and scrutinizing Gu Panpan for a while before frowning with a serious expression and turning to look at Yao Anna on the other side.

"Don't you think Gu Panpan is acting a little strange?" Song Mengmeng pulled Yao Anna to a secluded corner and asked her in a low voice.

"Ah, I didn't notice!" Yao Anna was taken aback by Song Mengmeng's question. After thinking for a long time, she shook her head: "I just feel that her acting skills are much better than before. The director even praised her for this a few days ago! He said that she performed much better than during the audition!"

"So, was she left-handed before?" As Yao Anna answered, Song Mengmeng unconsciously glanced back at Gu Panpan's direction. A scene was being filmed there, and it was obvious that Gu Panpan's left hand was more dominant in her movements.
