Chapter 9 Audition



Looking at the gloom in his eyes, Lin Yusheng suddenly didn't want to know its purpose anymore.

But thinking and doing are two different things.

Lin Yusheng, forcing herself to speak, asked, "What is it?"

"Eliminate karmic obstacles. Do you know what karmic obstacles are?" Lu Zhengye asked Lin Yusheng, looking into her eyes.

"Simply put, it means that after killing someone, one feels guilty and wants to alleviate their psychological burden by taking this action."

When Lu Zhengye said this, there was not a trace of awe in his eyes, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

Lin Yusheng took a step back, startled by his piercing gaze.

But then, the tragedy of her family in her past life played out in her mind, and the hatred in her eyes suddenly burst forth.

This scene was witnessed by Lu Zhengye, who had been watching her closely. Lu Zhengye's dark eyes, as black as night, narrowed slightly.

Lin Yusheng didn't see it; she just sneered, "If killing is to keep yourself or someone you care about alive, then it doesn't seem like it's evil."

After she finished speaking, Lin Yusheng realized who was in front of her.

The two of them were stunned at the same time.

Lu Zhengye: "Miss Lin has lived a life of luxury, how could she come to such a conclusion?"

"I've just read too many novels and I'm just talking nonsense. Don't listen to my fallacies."

Lin Yusheng suddenly returned to reality, and then pretended to answer easily.

There was no way to talk to her anymore, so she shoved the box into Lu Zhengye's hand.

Then she looked up at him and said, "This incense helps with sleep. You can light it when you can't sleep. By the way, this incense shop is located at No. 83 Piaoxiang Road, Jiangnan. If Grandpa or you need it in the future, you can go there to buy it."

After finishing her sentence, Lin Yusheng turned and left without waiting for Lu Zhengye to reply.

She walked unsteadily, just as she had when she arrived, but faster this time.

The reason I told Lu Zhengye the location was because it was actually Lu Zhengye who discovered this incense shop.

In his previous life, Lu Zhengye acquired this incense shop and promoted it extensively, allowing incense to reappear in the public eye and receive unanimous praise.

Lin Yusheng only had a lucky break from her past life. She told Lu Zhengye now because she wanted him to go first.

Lu Zhengye watched Lin Yusheng's departing figure, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Not long after Lin Yusheng got into the car and left, a black Rolls-Royce stopped in front of Lu Zhengye.

Lu Zhengye got into the back seat.

Sitting in the passenger seat was Lu Zhengye's assistant, Wei Qing.

Lu Zhengye closed his eyes, tapping the windowsill idly with his index finger.

Then he slowly spoke, "Wei Qing, please help me investigate Lin Yusheng's background in more detail."

"yes."

Has Fu Zhuocheng made a phone call?

“It has already been explained. Director Fu said the audition will be on Friday. He also said that if Ms. Lin’s acting is not good enough, he will still reject her. Even if you say so, it won’t matter.”

"knew."

Lu Zhengye didn't speak again, but Lin Yusheng's words echoed in his mind once more.

“If killing is done to keep yourself or someone you care about alive, it doesn’t seem like it’s evil.”

His heart, which had been as still as water, seemed to stir for a moment, though he didn't realize it.

The audition day arrived quickly, and Lin Yusheng left home early in the morning.

The audition was held at Shenggan Entertainment. When Lin Yusheng arrived on the seventh floor, she found that many people were already waiting there, including a familiar face – Deng Xingwen.

In her previous life, Deng Xingwen did not participate in the filming of "Jianghu Ling" and was unaware that she had also come to audition.

Lin Yusheng found it quite ridiculous that Deng Xingwen looked down on Lu Zhengye behind his back, yet she came to his company to audition.

Deng Xingwen's eyebrows furrowed in anger the moment she saw Lin Yusheng. If her manager hadn't stopped her, she probably would have rushed up and started a fight with Lin Yusheng.

Her agent whispered in her ear, "Calm down, getting the role in this drama is more important."

Deng Xingwen gritted her teeth and refused to turn back.

Lin Yusheng sat down on a chair without changing her expression. She glanced around and saw that there were at least twenty people here for the interview, many of whom had assistants and agents with them.

Seeing her sit down, Deng Xingwen immediately questioned, "What are you doing sitting here?"

"Where else would I sit for an audition if not here?"

Deng Xingwen looked at him in disbelief, "You're auditioning? You're not even an actress, what are you auditioning for?"

Lin Yusheng gave her a cool look. "Were you born an actress?"

The implication is: Everyone has a first time.

Deng Xingwen scoffed upon hearing this, stood up, and looked down at Lin Yusheng with an air of superiority, saying, "You have neither a company nor an agent, what qualifications do you have to audition?"

At this point, Lin Yusheng's face turned completely cold. "Isn't it all thanks to you?"

Deng Xingwen felt guilty under her icy gaze. Did she know something?

"It has nothing to do with me. Director Fu has such high standards for actors, and he personally gives them audition opportunities. As for you... I don't know what methods you used."

Everyone here understood the implication behind Deng Xingwen's words.

Some of the more famous young actors looked at Lin Yusheng with disdain and a strange expression.

Lin Yusheng was too lazy to explain to others, and besides, she did get in through connections.

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and a radiant woman wearing sunglasses walked in.

Lin Yusheng recognized her immediately; she was Ye Jun'er, the actress who played the Valley Master of Red Silk Valley in the previous life's "Jianghu Order".

She is also Lin Yusheng's biggest competitor today.

That's right, the role she wanted was Chu Yuexi, the Valley Master of Red Silk Valley in "Jianghu Order".

In her previous life, Ye Jun'er became famous for her role as Chu Yuexi, but was exposed for various negative information such as being arrogant and frequenting vulgar places, which caused her to be rejected by many people.

In the end, it almost affected the broadcast of "Jianghu Ling".

Therefore, Lin Yusheng felt absolutely no psychological pressure when she came to snatch this role.

Ye Jun'er walked arrogantly in front of the crowd, her face extremely sour. She asked her agent with dissatisfaction, "Why are they all newcomers? Do they think they're worthy of competing with me for the same role?"

The agent quickly calmed her down, "Jun'er, don't be angry. Didn't I tell you? Director Fu is a rather strange person. He only looks at acting skills and not social status."

"But you can't just invite any Tom, Dick, or Harry, can you? That would just lower my standards."

Lin Yusheng was resting with her eyes closed. She had finally seen through the rumors in her past life that she was a diva.

Deng Xingwen stood up with a smile and said, "That's right. Some people don't know their own limitations. They dare to audition just because they've hooked up with a rich guy. They'll just waste our time and make a fool of themselves."

Deng Xingwen kept looking at Lin Yusheng while she said this.

Ye Jun'er could tell the two didn't get along, so she first asked Deng Xingwen, "Who are you?"

Her arrogant tone made Deng Xingwen very unhappy. "My surname is Deng, and my name is Deng Xingwen. It's nice to meet you."

Deng Xingwen reached out her hand.
