Master Fu’s Mysterious Darling Wife - Chapter 53

Chapter 53: Support You

“Xiaoxuan, are you interested in acting?” Shen Qinglan asked.

Yu Xiaoxuan nodded hard over there and said, “In the past, I had never known what I wanted to do after graduation. Whether it would be as my father said, join the company after my graduation, follow according to my father’s arrangements for me and take over my father’s company. But you also know that I have no interest in the business. Otherwise I would not have chosen the Chinese Language and Literature as a major.

In fact, I am also at a loss recently for quite some time. I have no plans for the future, and do not know what to plan for. People in the dormitory have goals. Fang Tong will certainly follow her boyfriend and has currently joined Junlan Group. Even if she does not stay there in the future, she will still be able to find a good job, because she knows what she wants.

Same goes for Wu Qian. She also has plans for her own life even though I don’t know what she intends to do.” Yu Xiaoxuan’s voice sounded a little despondent toward the end. Shen Qinglan could feel the bewilderment she felt inside.

“I’m the same too. I don’t have a plan for the future,” Shen Qinglan began to speak.

“No, it’s not the same, Qinglan. Although you usually don’t say anything, and you don’t seem to have any specific preferences, I know you’re a person with a particular mind of your own. Even if you don’t know what to do now, you certainly won’t be confused, because you are an especially smart person.

As for me, I’m not very smart. I have a headache especially when I see that jumble of numbers. So, even if I take over my father’s company right away, I can’t do it either. But I also don’t want to do any job such as a secretary, much less be a person who only knows how to depend on my parents for a living.

I thought I would continue to at a loss. But now, Qinglan, I seem to have found my way. Qinglan, I want to be an actor, I want to enter the entertainment industry. Tell me, do you think I can do it?”

Yu Xiaoxuan’s voice was firm, but her lack of confidence showed.

“Yes, you can. I believe in you,” Shen Qinglan started to say, with her pretty eyes lighting up, “Xiaoxuan, do you really intend to enter the entertainment industry?”

“Yes, Qinglan, I’ve made my decision. Maybe you’d say I am impulsive, but I really want to give it a try. I’m also aware that the entertainment world is an extremely complicated place and I may get the worst of it with my temper. But I still want to try, even if I will fall on my face and end up getting hurt.”

It was the first time Shen Qinglan had heard Yu Xiaoxuan spoke so seriously about what she wanted. She always appeared to be simple-minded. Shen Qinglan was surprised by how Yu Xiaoxuan was now.

“Go ahead and do it since you already decided. I’ll support you,” Shen Qinglan said.

“Qinglan, thank you. Only you will support me without hesitation.”

Shen Qinglan smiled and said, “Isn’t like what you said? We are friends and friends do not need to say thank you.”

Her slight smile made her facial features bright and beautiful. But unfortunately, Yu Xiaoxuan could not see over the phone. Otherwise she would be screaming excitedly. She knew Shen Qinglan for three years, but the number of times she saw her smile could be counted on her fingers.

“If you have really made up your mind, I can offer you a suggestion,” Shen Qinglan said as she recalled a piece of information she heard two days ago.

“What suggestion?” Yu Xiaoxuan asked curiously.

“Shengxuan Entertainment Group recently plans to start shooting an IP drama. The cast will comprise of entirely new talent. They are currently in the midst of a nationwide open casting call. You can sign up to try.”

“Do you think I can do it? How can a big company like Shengxuan Entertainment Group be interested in me?” Yu Xiaoxuan hesitated.

Shen Qinglan facepalmed her forehead and said, “Didn’t you said just now that even if you were to fall on your face and end up getting hurt, you also wanted to try? How is it that you’re going to shy away from the first step?”

“Qinglan, you’re right. I won’t know till I try. Who knows, I may get picked?” Yu Xiaoxuan built up her confidence and said, “Qinglan, tell me how I can sign up for the activity?”

“I really don’t know about that. I’ll help you ask some other time?”

“Okay. I’m buying a ticket right now. This is a rare opportunity. I can’t miss it,” Yu Xiaoxuan said and immediately hung up the phone after. She did not give Shen Qinglan the opportunity to speak. Soon after, she ran to the bus station to buy tickets, full of energy.

Shen Qinglan looked at the phone, which just hung up and smiled helplessly. She then dialed another person’s number.

“Young missus, what’s going on today? You actually gave me a call.” Han Yi’s playful voice came from the end of the line.

He held a pretty woman in his arms. When he received the call from Shen Qinglan, he pushed the pretty woman aside and signaled for the pretty woman to go out. The pretty woman looked at him resentfully, unwilling to leave.

Han Yi picked up a checkbook and signed his name before handing the check to the pretty woman. Then the pretty woman went out happily.

After hearing that the other end had quieted down, Shen Qinglan started to speak, “I heard that your company is recently holding an open casting call?”

Han Yi’s sloe-eyes narrowed as he smiled, “Young missus, you’re very well-informed.” Shengxuan Entertainment Group was an entertainment company under Han Yi’s management. He also did not hide the matter from the outside world. It was not surprising that Shen Qinglan knew.
