"I already have someone I love deeply. I definitely can't have sex with someone else. I'll just stay here and guard our love. Then I won't feel lonely. "
"Master … Maybe you don't know, but the target you need to conquer is actually the same soul. When you go to the next world, that soul will also go with you. It's just that he's not like you, who can retain the memories of every life. "
Tao Wan was stunned for a moment before he said angrily, "What do you mean maybe I don't know? You didn't tell me, so how could I know?"
"…"
"As a system, you didn't tell me this in advance. Are you kidding me?"
"…"
Tao Wan stood up and patted the non-existent dust off his hands. He said angrily, "If I knew it was the same person, I wouldn't be here feeling sad. Hurry up and send me to the next world."
"Yes, master."
… … …
The next morning, Tao Wan got up and washed up. He stood in front of the bathroom mirror and looked at his refreshed face. Compared to the state he was in last night, he was like a completely different person.
The original owner's immune system was very weak. He would often have a high fever or a severe cold. Just a little cold and he would definitely fall sick. It had been like this since he was young. However, the severe cold and high fever this time was not caused by him accidentally catching a cold.
Carrying his backpack, Tao Wan still put on a mask even though he had recovered from his cold. It wasn't because the original owner was very popular and would be recognized if he didn't wear a mask. The original owner was not even a 38th tier celebrity. No one would recognize him if he went out.
However, the people in the company who knew the original owner knew that he had a severe cold again. Hence, Tao Wan put on a mask to make them think that he had not fully recovered.
When Tao Wan arrived at the company, the newcomers who had joined the company at the same time as the original owner were already sitting together and chatting. They all looked very excited.
Although these people were only there to audition for extras or slightly better roles than extras, the production this time was not only a big production, but the lead actor's plastic surgery was also quite impressive. For people like them, being able to show their faces, even if they were just extras, was a very exciting thing.
Liu Yong was the team leader in charge of managing these newcomers. He was looking at the schedule when he looked up and saw Tao Wan come in. He asked him, "Hua Xi, are you feeling better?"
Tao Wan replied, "Much better."
"Don't try to be brave. It'll be troublesome if you suddenly faint like last time. Although this is a rare opportunity, for the sake of everyone, we can't leave a bad impression on the crew. " Liu Yong looked at him worriedly. He wasn't worried about his body, but he was worried that he would affect everyone else's audition.
Tao Wan took off his mask and said, "Don't worry, team leader. I won't faint this time."
Liu Yong saw that his complexion was indeed much better, so he nodded and walked over to him. He whispered, "Okay, do well in this audition. I'll let you in on some news. Not only are there small roles to audition, but there are also a few dance doubles to audition. It's very likely to be today. With your appearance and dancing ability, you have the highest chance of passing the audition. Don't look down on the doubles. Get familiar with the crew and please them. Make them remember you, and you'll have more opportunities in the future. "
"Got it, team leader. I'll try my best," Tao Wan said.
"You …" Liu Yong wanted to say something else, but when he thought about Liu Yong's personality, he knew that it was impossible for him to curry favor with others. So, he sighed and said, "Forget it. If you can actually pass the audition, then we'll talk about other things. Right now, it's useless."
Liu Yong turned and left the waiting room to make other preparations.
Tao Wan found a seat and sat down. There were more than ten newcomers in the waiting room, both male and female. They were all selected to join the company at the same time and had all graduated from dance academies. They were all under 20 years old, so they were young and full of dreams. But there were very few people who could realize their dreams.
The girls were going to audition for backup dancers, palace maids, and servant girls. The boys, other than eunuchs and guards, had to audition for roles with lines. Because this batch of newcomers were all dance majors, there were many such actors in the crew. Otherwise, a newly established company like theirs wouldn't have arranged for so many newcomers to audition. It wasn't an ordinary crew.
Tao Wan picked up a magazine and casually flipped through it. Suddenly, the door to the waiting room was opened and a woman wearing sunglasses walked in. She had freshly done curly hair and the way she raised her chin made her look like a proud rooster.
"Ah, Sister Qiao, why are you free today?"
"Hello, Sister Qiao."
"Sister Qiao, you're so early. Are you going to the crew?"
"Sister Qiao, you look so good today. Your skin is so good."
All the newcomers stood up and immediately surrounded her to say hello and flatter her.
"I'm going to audition for the same crew as you. I happen to have some time, so I came to see you." After Li Qiao sat down, she took off her sunglasses and handed them to her assistant. Then she took the thermos flask and did it smoothly, as if she had been specially trained.
Only Tao Wan didn't move. He resisted the urge to roll his eyes and continued to flip through the magazine. According to the original owner's personality, he would have acted the same way. So it was normal for him to act like this.
"Sister Qiao is so nice. She specially came to see us when she's so busy."
"That's right. Sister Qiao must be going to audition for one of the roles. We're just going to audition for extras. That's the difference."
"I heard that Cheng Yi is one of the main actors. Sister Qiao is his cousin. It's easy for him to get a role. The audition is just a process."
"I'm so envious. I also want to have a cousin who's an A-list celebrity."
On Li Qiao's face, there was an unconcealable pride. These flattering words made her feel very comfortable. In fact, she came to hear these words. Otherwise, how could she, who had her own private lounge, come to the newcomers' lounge?
Li Qiao flipped her hair and turned her head. She saw the only one still sitting, Tao Wan. Her face immediately fell. It's him again.
"That's the big star? He's wearing a mask. I don't think I've seen him before. Is he our company's new big star? "Li Qiao mocked in a strange tone.
When the others saw that the two were about to argue again, they quickly retreated to the side. They didn't want to get involved.
"In our company, there's no bigger star than Sister Qiao. He's just a newcomer who doesn't know how to respect his seniors." Lin Chun-chi said flatteringly.
"Oh ~" Li Qiao looked like she suddenly understood. "Speaking of not respecting his seniors, I know who it is. After all, people who don't know how to respect their seniors are rare."
Tao Wan sneered and said, "If the so-called respect for his seniors is just flattery, then I really don't know how to respect my seniors. It's just that those who like to listen to lies know that what others say is not true, but they still rely on lies to get vanity and satisfaction. I don't know if this is a disease? "
Tao Wan supported his chin with one hand and looked like he was thinking. "Speaking of which, she's just a distant relative. Can she be considered a proper cousin? Why do I remember that Cheng Yi's fans are especially disgusted by someone pretending to be his cousin? "
Cheng Yi was indeed a big star. Not only did he have a lot of fans, but he was also well recognized by the people. Because he acted in many shows, as long as people watched TV often, even if they didn't care about the entertainment industry, they would know him.
Li Qiao was Cheng Yi's distant relative. According to seniority, she should call Cheng Yi cousin. When she first debuted, she used the name of Cheng Yi's cousin many times to promote herself. At first, it didn't matter, but after a few times, Cheng Yi's fans were disgusted.
Especially when they found out that she wasn't his real cousin, but just a distant relative, Cheng Yi's fans directly scolded her, saying that she was shamelessly trying to gain popularity. Later, she was warned by Cheng Yi's company that if she tried to gain popularity with Cheng Yi again, she wouldn't be able to survive in the entertainment industry. Since then, she didn't dare to publicly say that she was Cheng Yi's cousin. But in private, she still enjoyed the envy of others for having an A-list celebrity cousin.
"Hua Xi, I think you haven't been taught a lesson yet, have you?" Li Qiao gritted her teeth and said, "Do you want me to teach you a lesson again?"
"Aiya, I've had enough of Sister Qiao's lesson." Tao Wan curled his lips and said with a scared expression, "Since Sister Qiao likes to hear flattery so much, then I'll also say something to satisfy you. But I've never lied, so I'll just tell you the truth. I heard that last time, Sister Qiao slept with a director and producer several times for a role. Although she didn't get the role in the end, this kind of dedication is really inspiring. "
The original owner wasn't someone who didn't respect her seniors, but she wasn't good at flattering people. The others were the same when they first entered the company. No one was born to flatter.
The original owner was the prettiest among them, but her personality was also the most dull. In order to show her position in the company, Li Qiao wanted to show off her power to the newcomers. She caught the original owner and scolded him twice. The other newcomers were all afraid. In order to protect themselves, every time they saw Li Qiao, they would try to curry favor with her.
Li Qiao achieved the effect she wanted and was very proud. But she didn't expect that after the original owner was taught a lesson, not only did he not give in, he even went against her.
Li Qiao felt that he hadn't been taught a lesson enough, so she made a move against him several times, causing him to miss the opportunity to audition. The original owner had the best qualifications among the newcomers and was also the most likely to be famous. He missed the audition opportunity and was picked up by Lin Chun-chi.
Lin Chun-chi got the opportunity and was very happy. Although he couldn't do anything to the original owner, he always fanned the flames when the two met. For example, the original owner had a bad cold and fever because Li Qiao pushed him into the pool and asked her assistant to stop him from coming up. She let him soak in the water for a long time.
Li Qiao was the most popular actress in the company, but she was just an eighteenth-tier actress. She had the face of a supporting actress and with her own temperament, she probably had no hope of being the female lead in this life. But there were many actresses who were famous as supporting actresses. After all, there were so many stars in the entertainment industry, it was impossible for everyone to be the female lead. Sometimes, supporting roles might be more popular.
But sometimes, everything was fate. If you were destined to be famous, you would definitely be famous. If you weren't destined to be famous, then you wouldn't be famous. Li Qiao played a lot of supporting roles. Her acting skills were good, but she didn't know how to raise awareness.
Of course, Li Qiao wasn't willing to accept her fate. If the company couldn't give her better resources, she would find a way to fight for it. Sleeping with others was the only way she could get a chance.
Everyone knew that the entertainment industry was dirty and unbearable. But some things, once put on the table, would become a scandal.
Tao Wan directly said that Li Qiao was sleeping with him in front of so many people. It scared the newcomers. No one thought he would have the guts to say such a thing.
Li Qiao was so angry that her face changed. The thick foundation on her face couldn't cover her ugly face. She suddenly stood up and walked in front of Tao Wan, glaring at him.
Tao Yuan also stood up. Because he was tall, he looked at her with a condescending gaze.
"What did you just say?" Li Qiao was so angry that her lips were trembling. "I dare you to say it again!"
"There's something I'm really curious about. Did you sleep separately from the director and producer, or did you sleep with them?" Tao Wan looked at her with contempt.
Li Qiao raised her hand angrily and was about to slap Tao Wan's face.
"Happy birthday. This is a gift for you." Another male classmate came in and put the gift on his table.
"Thank you."
"Happy birthday, Shaoyan."
"Thank you."
After the last incident, Xu Shaoyan's bad reputation had spread, but it didn't affect the class much because these students had benefited from him. And they felt that, based on their daily interactions, they were more willing to believe that Xu Shaoyan was a good person.
Xu Shaoyan told them that those things were done by his family behind his back. If he had known, he definitely wouldn't have agreed. He also felt very guilty, so these students believed him.
Xu Shaoyan would give a gift to each of his classmates on their birthdays, so today was his birthday, other classmates also gave him gifts in return. He just liked to enjoy the feeling of being welcomed by everyone.
"What gift did your boyfriend give you today?" The girl sitting behind Xu Shaoyan asked in a low voice. The other students also looked at him, waiting for his answer. Because the class hadn't started yet, they couldn't help gossiping.
"He didn't tell me. He said that he wanted to give me a surprise." Xu Shaoyan said with a smile.
Liu Xiujie had asked him what he wanted, and Liu Xiujie said that he hoped that he could give him a surprise, so Liu Xiujie arranged it himself.
"What kind of gift will it be?" A girl said. "There must be a candlelight dinner or something, right? It's so romantic just thinking about it. "
"You must tell us tomorrow. What surprise did he give you?" Another girl said.
Xu Shaoyan looked at them with a smile.
