Upon hearing the news that An Jing would also be in the show, Lu Yuqi immediately opened his eyes, stared at the white ceiling, and then chuckled, saying that whether he acted or not had nothing to do with him.
It's as if they have some kind of relationship.
An Qingyan vaguely understood something. In any case, Lu Yuqi's reaction was a bit strange. He smiled and said, "It doesn't really matter, but my older brother is a top-tier celebrity. With him around, the ratings for this drama are guaranteed."
"How about it, do you want to give it a try?"
Lu Yuqi agreed, saying, "Yeah, I heard this show is pretty good." After thinking for a moment, he frowned and reluctantly said, "Well, I'll give it a try. Anyway, I don't want to be with two idiots."
An Qingyan knew who he was talking about. There were so many people in their group, and everyone had a different personality and style, so conflicts were bound to happen. It wasn't as harmonious as it seemed on the surface.
Just like Lu Yuqi, his arrogant and unruly personality made many contestants afraid to approach him during the talent show, and some even cursed him behind his back.
However, if the arrogant king cared about these things, he wouldn't be the arrogant king.
"Anyway, it's a limited-time group, they'll disband in a year."
"Then I'll recommend you to the director?"
Lu Yuqi hummed in agreement. (Original URL)
An Qingyan added, "Filming will start in a week, and the audition might be in a couple of days. The director has high standards, so prepare well. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."
Lu Yuqi chuckled lightly, showing no humility whatsoever, and said, "If I don't pass the audition, I'll take your surname."
An Qingyan liked Wang's confidence.
The two exchanged a few more words and then hung up the phone.
The crew's group chat was still buzzing when An Qingyan sent Wu Weiguang a private message, recommending Lu Yuqi to him.
Wu Weiguang took one look and saw that it was another talent show contestant. But he dared not underestimate her now. The little treasure he had recently found was also from a talent show, and her acting skills were in no way inferior to those who had formal training.
An Qingyan also sent over a few photos. Wu Weiguang clicked on the photos and looked at them. He immediately laughed. This kid's appearance really matched Lin Xiao's. He still had that arrogant temperament that almost overflowed the screen. Isn't he Lin Xiao himself?
To be honest, he is indeed more suitable than the previous actor, but I don't know if his acting skills can surprise him.
Okay, tell him to prepare well, and we'll notify him of the audition once the time is confirmed.
Okay, thank you, Director Wu.
An Qingyan exited the chat interface in a good mood, and then his older brother called, "Yanyan, why didn't you tell us you were going home?"
An Qingyan touched the tip of her nose guiltily, "I wanted to give you a surprise."
"Really?" An Jing was skeptical. He had just heard that his brother had returned yesterday afternoon on a flight and only got home tonight.
What did you do during that time?
The answer seems to be no surprise.
"Hmm..." An Qingyan was wondering what excuse to give when An Jing suddenly said his phone was out of battery, hurriedly said "See you later" and hung up.
An Qingyan didn't take it seriously. Thinking that his mother and older brother would be back soon, he quickly slipped on his cotton slippers and went to the kitchen to make them a late-night snack.
On the other side, an expensive car stopped near the entrance of the villa area. An Jing and Song Shuman looked at the person standing by the roadside, who was staring longingly in their direction.
The two looked at each other and remained silent for a moment.
Song Shuman's gaze was complicated, and her expression seemed somewhat conflicted. She sighed almost imperceptibly and said softly, "An Jing, let's go down and take a look."
An Jing didn't say anything. At the same time that Song Shuman opened the car door, he also opened the other car door and got out.
Annan wanted to enter the villa area, but the security guard at the entrance wouldn't let him in, saying that he wasn't a resident and couldn't enter without the homeowner's permission, and he was forced to leave in a very forceful manner.
He's lived here for almost twenty years, and the security guard knows him. He used to be incredibly polite to him, but now even a security guard can bully him!
An Qingyan cursed inwardly.
There was nothing he could do; he had nowhere else to go. Being kicked out of the An family was definitely the worst period of his life.
He could only wait outside. No matter what, he had to see his mother. Unexpectedly, less than half an hour later, he saw An's car coming towards him. He hurriedly stopped the car.
An Nan took two steps forward, his eyes lowered, his hands clasped nervously together, and he whispered to the two people who were walking towards him, "Mom, Big Brother."
In the dead of winter, An Jing looked at the person in front of her wearing a baseball cap and only a long-sleeved T-shirt, who looked pitiful, and frowned helplessly. "What are you doing here?"
Looking at her son, whom she had doted on for almost twenty years, now turned out like this, Song Shuman was filled with mixed feelings. She didn't know what to say. She felt resentment and anger, but the feelings she had for him over the years couldn't be severed so easily.
Therefore, she couldn't bring herself to say anything cruel or heartless.
An Nanyi glanced at Song Shuman, then lowered her head again. "I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have disturbed your lives. I've done many unforgivable mistakes..."
"So, what brings you here today?" An Jing looked at him expressionlessly, repeatedly telling himself not to be soft-hearted. The more he had once doted on this "younger brother," the more ironic it felt now.
They loved him so sincerely, yet they were repaid with ingratitude.
"I'm sorry, I really don't know what to do."
As he spoke, tears welled up in An Nanyi's eyes. He truly felt hurt and wronged. He was determined not to go back to the Lin family. That house was dirty and small, and he would never acknowledge that good-for-nothing Lin Jianxiang as his father.
Now, Anjia can't go back.
He didn't have much money on him. Fortunately, his clothes and accessories were all designer brands, which he could sell online for some money, but this wasn't a long-term solution.
He was expelled from school and now he doesn't dare to go out. He can only stay in a small hotel every day. Many people outside know him and are probably cursing him behind his back.
He was truly at his wit's end.
“I went back to the Lin family, but Lin Jianxiang beat me every day and kicked me out.” An Nanyi sniffed and choked up as she said, “I really don’t know where to go. I’m at my wit’s end now. I’m suffering and in so much pain every day…”
"Mom, brother, I really know I was wrong." He grabbed An Jing's arms with both hands, looking at them with teary eyes. "I will be good from now on, I won't do bad things again."
"Please let me go home, please, I promise I'll be good, please don't abandon me..."
Before she could finish saying "Nan...", Song Shuman paused, then said, "Don't be like this."
A look of emotion crossed her face, a mixture of reluctance and inner conflict. In fact, she had often thought of An Nanyi during this time and had repeatedly told herself not to be soft-hearted.
When she felt soft-hearted, she would think about what An Nanyi had done to Yan Yan, what kind of suffering Yan Yan had endured over the years, and what kind of harm her soft-heartedness would cause Yan Yan.
Thinking about all this, she forced herself to suppress all those emotions.
But when Annanyi actually stood in front of her, crying and telling her these things, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
An Jing noticed Song Shuman's emotions, raised his hand and patted her shoulder, gave her a look, and then pushed away An Nanyi's hand that was holding his arm.
"Big brother..."
Song Shuman hesitated, but ultimately said nothing.
"So, what do you want us to do? To let you return to the An family?" An Jing smiled, but there was no smile in her eyes, and her voice was as cold as ice in winter. "To let someone with a dark heart, full of cunning, who almost killed my own brother, return to the An family?"
"How can you expect me to believe that you've truly reformed? Based on those few words just now? A few tears?"
"Never mind, don't say anymore." Song Shuman gently tugged at her eldest son's sleeve, feeling somewhat reluctant.
An Jing continued, "When you did those dirty things, you should have thought about the consequences you would face today, but you still did them."
An Nan stared blankly at the other person's cold expression, feeling a sense of estrangement. He said, aggrieved, "Brother, how can our years of friendship just disappear like that..."
"I really know I was wrong. How do you want me to prove it? I can kneel down and apologize to Yan Yan. I'll do anything he asks..."
As he was speaking excitedly, his body suddenly went limp, and he closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground, as if he had fallen into a coma.
Song Shuman was startled and quickly squatted down to feel An Nanyi's forehead, only to find that it was a little hot. "He has a fever. Let's take him to the hospital right away, An Jing?"
The coldness in An Jing's eyes faded, and he stared silently at the unconscious person on the ground, as if he had seen something.
Song Shuman kept urging him, but in the end he didn't say anything and helped her into the car to go to the hospital.
It was quite late when the two returned from the hospital. The mother and son remained silent. An Jing did not mention what had just happened. "Yan Yan is back today. I wonder if he's asleep yet. I'll go check on him."
"Okay, I'll go take a look too."
The two walked to An Qingyan's room and found the door ajar, with no one inside.
They found the person in the restaurant because the lights were still on.
An Qingyan sat at the dining table, bent over and fell asleep, half of his handsome face buried in his arms, sleeping peacefully.
An Jing and Song Shuman exchanged a glance and slowed their pace.
But the boy, who heard the noise, opened his eyes and quickly woke up. He looked at the two people who appeared in front of him with a smile on his face.
"Mom, Big Brother, why are you so late coming back?"
An Jing: "Something came up on the way and I was delayed. Why are you sleeping here?"
"I made you a midnight snack, and I fell asleep while waiting here."
