Shi Xirou did not plan to let Enke lead the trainees. Firstly, she already had a lot of people under her command. Secondly, Bai Yang would rise up in rebellion. It would take some time before their debut. Shi Xirou planned to poach the gold medal agent from another company to take over Huo Huang's first boy group.
Xue Bingbing had previously auditioned for the third female lead in a fantasy drama. She had passed the audition and the script had already been sent to her, but she was rejected by the crew two days before filming was to start.
Fortunately, the director was Li Qinghe's student. Li Qinghe made a special phone call to inquire about the situation. The director didn't know about this. After investigation, he found out that the assistant director wanted to promote his mistress. He personally brought the revised contract to the company to apologize to his teacher and junior sister.
So Xue Bingbing and An Jiu were not at the company, one filming a TV show and the other a movie. Li Qinghe was teaching three girls in classroom number one.
Their performance is a melodramatic romantic skit set during the Republican era. Yu Ling'er, of mixed Dragon-Russian descent, is the tallest, giving her an advantage in playing a male role. However, her current partner, Mai Nur Serikboli, who is of Uyghur descent, is also 171cm tall, which makes them look awkward and inexplicably funny.
What surprised Shi Xirou was that Jiang Xiangyu had the shortest acting experience among the three. She could not perform without a script and had a small piece of paper hidden in her hand, but her acting was not much worse than her professionally trained companions. Her facial features were very lively, not simply frowning, glaring or pouting, nor were her facial features flying around with excessive force. Tears came so easily that Shi Xirou even suspected that she had put pepper spray on her hands.
If Jiang Xiangyu knew what she was thinking, she would probably roll her eyes: I have been abandoned by my family and boyfriend, and I am homeless. Isn't it easy for me to cry?
Ling Xiao was watching a movie alone in classroom number three, very attentively. It was only when Shi Xirou sat next to him that she realized there was someone there.
"Boss!" Ling Xiao stood up suddenly.
"Sit down." Shi Xirou raised her hand and supported her chin as she looked at Ling Xiao. "You seem to have become stronger."
"I'll pay attention."
"I didn't mean to ask you to eat less. I meant that you're much more handsome than when you first joined the company." If it weren't for the mark on your head, I wouldn't have believed that the man with the dusty face and sunken cheeks was you. Shi Xirou didn't say this.
Ling Xiao's ears burned, and he didn't dare meet Shi Xirou's gaze. He opened and closed his mouth, and just as he uttered the word "xie" he heard her ask, "I heard from Enke that you're planning to audition for the supporting actor role in an anti-Japanese war film. How are your preparations going?"
"I sent the interview video I recorded myself, but haven't received any notification yet."
"Oh, do you want to go out and relax together?"
Ling Xiao's inner thoughts: What does that mean? Am I overthinking this?
He hesitated and said, "You and me?"
Shi Xirou leaned back and said, "You're overthinking. Of course, there are also Brother Zhang and Sister An!"
"You need to pack a change of clothes. One of my clients' sister opened a holiday resort. I'm taking you there to show her my support. We'll be back tomorrow at noon."
As she spoke, Shi Xirou's expression became strange. "Don't scare yourself. I won't let you sacrifice your bodies by drinking with me. I'm a law-abiding capitalist."
Ling Xiao: “…”
He hadn't thought about that aspect.

Unlike the sunny Songcheng, the weather in the capital is gloomy at this moment. Dark clouds gradually cover the entire sky, making people feel suffocated.
A dog barked from an alley so narrow that even a car couldn't drive in. Shen Ci knocked on the door of a house on the second floor of an old and dilapidated building in a panic, "Rong Jian, are you there?!"
"Rong Jian——"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in home clothes opened the door and looked at the visitor coldly.
The resentment was too deep, Shen Ci sneezed, touched his nose and went into the house.
"I seem to be possessed by an evil spirit. Please take a look at me." Shen Ci said bluntly. He sat down on the sofa, picked up the Munchkin cat dozing in the corner and stroked its fur to calm his irritable mood.
Rong Jian worked on coding all night and was woken up before he had slept for two hours. Seeing that the other party had no intention of reflecting on himself, he walked to the kitchen and took out two bottles of mineral water from the refrigerator. One of the bottles fell into Shen Ci's hands in a perfect parabola.
Rong Jian raised his head, his slightly pointed Adam's apple rolling up and down, and the cold mineral water entered his body from his mouth, relieving some of the heat.
There was still half of the water left in the bottle. He put it on the coffee table and sat at the other end of the sofa, two people away from Shen Ci. He looked at Shen Ci with an ambiguous look. After just one glance, he closed his eyes and put his hand on his forehead.
To be honest, when he saw Shen Ci for the first time, he thought he had put himself back on.
But he soon came to his senses. Shen Ci was not him. This was not the world he had lived in for twenty-one years. This was just a parallel world that was very unfamiliar to him. It was normal for someone to look like him and have the same name as him.
——
"Why don't you ask me what happened?"
After a while, Shen Ci looked over dejectedly, "After all, I am also your fellow disciple, and we even played ball for a few months. Shouldn't you help me see what kind of dirty things I have provoked?"
Rong Jian said lightly: "I'm not a Taoist priest who catches ghosts."
Chen Ci scratched his ear suspiciously and pointed at the peach wood sword hanging on the wall. "What does this sword mean? If you can't catch ghosts, why do you have all these messy talismans in your bag? Also, I remember black cats can ward off evil spirits, right? Where's your talking black cat? Lend it to me for a while."
"It can't speak, you're hallucinating."
"I don't lose my memory when I'm drunk!"
Three months ago, Chen Ci wanted to call his girlfriend, but she was busy reviewing for the college entrance examination and ignored him. He was in a bad mood and dragged Zhou Heng and Rong Jian out for a drink. Zhou Heng was called away by his girlfriend halfway. Rong Jian was afraid that he would have an accident in the dormitory alone, so she took him home on impulse.
