“No,” Mu Beiting denied in a deep voice.

“Then I…”

“No.”

Mu Chenzhou was becoming a bit agitated. “But bro… can’t you at least give me a reason?”

Mu Beiting’s thin lips pursed up coldly, his deep dark eyes carried a smear of danger and warning. “You sure you want to touch what’s mine?”

Mu Chenzhou forced out a laugh, “Ahaha… Of course not.”

What a joke! Even if you gave him some nerves, he still wouldn’t dare to do it.

…

After coming home, Su Xiangwan felt a bit crushed inside.

After all, she had just been looked and picked at as if she was just goods, what was even more frustrating was that she was eliminated in the end, anyone would have been pissed about this!

But then again, could it be that this is fate?

In her previous life, Mu Beiting chose Zhao Xinning, Su Xiangwan didn’t know that her involvement in this life wouldn’t even change anything either!

At this moment, her phone rang.

“Xiao Su, you have an audition at 2 P.M the day after tomorrow, make sure you come on time.”

“I’ll think about it.”

After saying this, she coldly hung up the phone. Her agent was a bit startled, she could feel Su Xiangwan’s powerful aura even through the phone.

Su Xiangwan narrowed her eyes. Before her rebirth, she was deceived by Su Yufei and delayed her studies for a year. She got carried away and signed with a film company whose scope wasn’t that big.

Yet, because Su Yufei’s Aunt was the manager of this company’s project department. There wasn’t even any need to think about what happened after she signed up, you could say she had a really hard time. Her reputation also fell to the bottom due to the deliberate vilification that was caused, it was to the extent that even though she had just entered the entertainment circle, her path was already ruined.

…

Two days later in the afternoon, Su Xiangwan appeared in the corridor of the Jinli Mansion wearing a burgundy-colored Cheongsam with heavy makeup on.

Her feet stood on a pair of seven-centimeter heels, she put on a smokey eyeshadow, had fiery red lips with an old Shanghai styled hair. Between this charm and the garnish she wore were a pair of cold eyes carrying the smell of romance. 

The moment she appeared, the many people standing in the corridor looked over.

It was filled with women also wearing a Cheongsam, they were here to audition for the supporting role of Begonia in “Yong Le Gate” just like her.

Su Xiangwan quickly found an empty corner and sat down, her eyes were narrowed.

A few minutes later, her agent, Xu Mingli, called.

Su Xiangwan answered the phone expressionlessly, she could hear the scolding even when her ears were at a distance from the device, “Su Xiangwan! Look at what the time is now! I told you to come at 2, it’s already 2:50 now! Did my words just go in one ear and out the other? You’re just a newbie and yet you’re already seeing yourself as a star?”

“I won’t go to that audition.”

“You… you really want to piss me off like this?! You haven’t even done anything yet and your wings have already hardened! Is that it?”

Not listening to her nonsense anymore, Su Xiangwan hung up the phone straight away and turned it off.

That’s right, she wasn’t auditioning for the role arranged by her agent. She was arranged for a third party role that ruined other people’s families. There weren’t many parts for that, but it was a clearly hateful role by the public.

She already had a bad reputation, if she appeared in any more of these types, then she would be completely destroyed.

After forty-something minutes later.

“Next, Su Xiangwan.”

She gathered up her senses, stood up and walked into the practice hall.

Today’s drama was called, “Yong Le Gate”, she had handed in her resume half a month ago to audition for the second female lead, Begonia.

Yong Le Gate’s story takes place in the old Shanghai period, it tells the story of the love and hate relationship between the ambitious Li Chengfeng and An Ning from the Communist Party, as well as the dancer, Begonia.

The female lead, An Ning, is a hidden underground member who disguised as a dancer from Yong Le Gate in order to complete her mission. As for the supporting role of Begonia, she was once the daughter of a noble family. After the fall of her family, she was assaulted by local ruffians and was reduced to becoming the lead dancer in Yong Le Gate.
