But perhaps because he looked at it for too long, the System reminded him that it was time for him to go to the next world.
"I might not be able to go to the next world." Tao Wan said.
"Why?" The System asked.
"I already have someone I love deeply. If I go and have a relationship with someone else, I definitely won't be able to do it. I'll just stay here and guard our love. Then I won't feel lonely. "
"Master … Maybe you don't know, but the people you need to conquer are actually the same soul. When you go to the next world, that soul will also go with you. It's just that, unlike you, he won't be able to retain the memories of every life. "
Tao Wan was stunned for a moment and said angrily, "What do you mean maybe I don't know? You didn't tell me, so how would 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 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 cold. If he caught a cold, he would definitely fall sick. It had been like this since he was young. But this time, the cold and fever were 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.
But the people in the company who knew the original owner knew that he had a bad cold again. So Tao Wan put on a mask to make them think that he was not fully recovered.
When Tao Wan arrived at the company, the newcomers who 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 then. Do well in this audition. I'll let you in on some news. This time, not only are there small roles to audition, 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 role of a double. Get familiar with the crew and please them. Make them remember you, then 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 lounge to make other preparations.
Tao Wan found himself a seat and sat down. There were more than a dozen newcomers in the lounge, both male and female. They were all selected to join the company at the same time and had all graduated from a dance academy. They were all less than 20 years old, so they were young and full of dreams. But there were very few people who could really realize their dreams.
The girls were going to audition for the roles of backup dancers, palace maids, and servant girls. The boys, in addition to eunuchs and guards, also had some roles with lines. Because this batch of newcomers were all dance majors, there were a lot of such actors in the crew. Otherwise, a newly established company like theirs wouldn't have arranged for so many newcomers to audition. This wasn't an ordinary crew.
Tao Wan picked up a magazine and casually flipped through it. Suddenly, the lounge door was opened and a woman wearing sunglasses walked in. She had a head of 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 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 in one go, 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."
"Yeah, 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 superstar."
Li Qiao's face was filled with unconcealable pride. These flattering words made her feel very comfortable. In fact, she came to hear these words. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to the newcomer's lounge when she had her own private lounge.
Li Qiao flipped her hair and turned her head. When she saw Tao Wan, the only one still sitting, her face immediately fell. It was him again.
"Is that the superstar? She's wearing a mask. I don't think I've seen her before. Is she our company's new superstar? "Li Qiao mocked in a strange tone.
When the others saw that the two were about to quarrel again, they quickly retreated to the side. They didn't want to get involved.
"In our company, there's no superstar who's more famous than Sister Qiao. He's just a newcomer who doesn't know how to respect his seniors." Lin Chun-chi said with extreme flattery.
"Oh ~" Li Qiao looked as if she suddenly understood. "Speaking of disrespecting seniors, I know who it is. After all, people who don't know how to respect seniors are rare."
Tao Wan sneered and said, "If the so-called respect for seniors is just flattery, then I really don't know how to respect 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 pretended to think. "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 shot. 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 one watched TV regularly, even if they didn't care about the entertainment industry, they would basically 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 enough, have you?" Li Qiao said through gritted teeth. "Do you want me to teach you a lesson again?"
"Aiya, I've had enough of Sister Qiao's lessons." Tao Yuan curled his lips with an expression of 'I'm so scared'. "Since Sister Qiao likes to listen to flattery so much, then I'll say something to satisfy you. It's just that I've never been one to lie, so I'll have to 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 others. The others were the same when they first entered the company. No one was born to flatter others.
The original owner was the best looking 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 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, so she was very proud. But she didn't expect that after the original owner was taught a lesson, not only did she not give in, she even went against her.
Li Qiao felt that the original owner hadn't been taught a lesson enough, so she made a move on her several times, causing her to miss the audition. The original owner had the best qualifications among the newcomers and was also the most likely to be famous. When she missed the audition, Lin Chun-chi took the opportunity.
Lin Chun-chi was very happy that he got the opportunity. 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, there was no hope for her to play 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 play the female lead. Sometimes, supporting roles could be more popular.
But sometimes, everything was fate. If you were fated to be famous, you would definitely be famous. If you weren't fated 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 asked Li Qiao to sleep with him in front of so many people, scaring 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 hide her ugly expression. 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!"
"I'm really curious about something. Did you sleep separately from the director and producer or did you sleep with them?" Tao Wan looked at her with disdain.
Li Qiao was so angry that she raised her hand and was about to slap Tao Wan's face.
Tao Wan woke up in the morning and turned on his phone. There were no missed calls or messages.
He sat in the classroom and looked out of the window in a daze. Could it be that Wei Shicheng wanted him to take the initiative to give in? Or did he want him to take the initiative to contact him?
Li Zaihua was teaching while Tao Wan was sitting in the classroom in a daze. Li Zaihua didn't plan to remind him. From his point of view, Tao Wan's Chinese Arts skills were so high that there was no need for him to study in school. However, he still came to class on time. The difference between a genius and an ordinary person was really enviable and helpless.
In every flower bed in the Chinese Arts Department, there was a car with the scent of roses. This kind of scenery was really rare. Even people from outside the school came to see and take photos. If they charged entrance fees, they would definitely make a lot of money. In order not to affect the students' classes, the school had to make a rule that non-students were not allowed to enter the Chinese Arts Department. Students from the school also had to show their student ID to enter.
After class, the classroom was filled with people again. They were all waiting to see the car with the scent of roses. Today was already the eleventh day. They were especially curious if the car with the scent of roses that had been delivered for the past ten days would appear again today.
For the past ten days, the car with the scent of roses had been waiting in advance. Today, at this time, the car with the scent of roses still hadn't appeared. They guessed that it wouldn't be delivered again. However, they also felt that what if it was delivered a little later today? It would be a pity if they missed it. Hence, they all stood downstairs and waited.
After Tao Wan walked out of the classroom, everyone's eyes were fixed on him. They watched as he walked down the stairs and then directly walked out. Only then did they think that there wouldn't be one today. It wasn't even for them. They didn't know why but they felt a little regretful. Many of them were dreaming that they would be able to receive it one day.
The crowd followed behind Tao Wan as he walked out. There were so many people but none of them surpassed him. They were all a distance behind him, looking at him silently as they walked. They were also doing it subconsciously. They didn't realize that this kind of scene looked like a boss leading a group of underlings.
On the main road leading to the school gate, a luxurious sports car was parked in the middle of the road. Beside the sports car stood a tall, mature, and handsome man.
Tao Wan stopped in his tracks. The people behind him also stopped in their tracks. Everyone looked at the man who was emitting a mature charm.
Tao Wan thought to himself, You finally appeared. I thought you were waiting for me to take the initiative to contact you.
Tao Wan carried the art box and walked forward a few steps. He looked at him and said, "Thank you for the rose fragrance car. However, I don't understand the poems you wrote. Please tell me personally what you want to express."
Wei Shicheng always wrote poems on the cards he gave him. They were all complimentary poems. Of course, Tao Wan could understand them. However, he wanted him to say it personally.
"Those poems only want to express one meaning. That is, from now on, I want to pursue you because I like you." Wei Shicheng's expression was very serious.
Tao Wan couldn't help but smile. Suddenly, he was shocked by the sudden exclamation behind him. He immediately turned around and realized that there were so many people behind him. Because he was distracted, he didn't pay attention to the situation around him. That was why he didn't realize that there were so many people following him.
Those exclamations and screams were because of Wei Shicheng's sudden confession. They couldn't help but let out sounds of envy. This man was tall, handsome, and had a good figure. From the sports car parked beside him and the rose fragrance car that had been delivered for ten days, his status was definitely very high. Being confessed by such a charming man, no matter if it was a man or a woman, they would be moved.
Tao Wan helplessly looked at those people. They were actually more excited than he was. Those who didn't know would think that they were the ones being confessed to.
Tao Wan turned his head and looked at Wei Shicheng. "Starting from now? Didn't you start from ten days ago? "
"Previously, it was just a test. Now, it's the official pursuit. I haven't pursued anyone before, so I don't have any experience in this area. I can only follow the steps." Wei Shicheng said.
"Then in your steps, what are you going to do next?" Tao Wan tried hard to keep a straight face, but his eyes were filled with joy.
"Of course it's to treat you to a meal. I don't know if you can accept my invitation?" Wei Shicheng opened the car door.
Tao Wan pretended to be hesitant. Then, he heard incessant voices coming from behind him. It was the kind of voice that was deliberately suppressed, as if they were talking to themselves.
With so many people looking at them, Tao Wan really couldn't stay any longer. He walked over and handed the art box and backpack to Wei Shicheng. Then, he sat in the front passenger seat.
After Wei Shicheng put away the things, he got into the car from the other side of the door. Then, he turned around and drove out of the school gate.
The surrounding students were excited. They felt as if they were watching a live version of an idol drama. A domineering CEO came to the school to confess. They were really envious.
Xu Shaoyan stood in the crowd. He didn't fit in with the excited people around him. Those people were jumping and jumping to express their feelings loudly. However, he just stood there in a daze. In his heart, he was so jealous that he wanted to cry.
Wei Shicheng booked an entire floor of the restaurant. It was located on the top floor of the tallest building in the city. Through the glass wall, one could even see the clouds outside.
Tao Wan held his chin and said, "So eating is really eating. Your concentration is much stronger than I thought, Uncle Wei."
"I changed from a godfather to an uncle?" Wei Shicheng personally poured a glass of wine for him.
"Then what should I call you?" Tao Wan looked like he was thinking. "You are so much older than me. Shouldn't I call you uncle?"
"You can call me dad." Wei Shicheng said.
"Shameless. I have a dad. Why should I call you dad?" Tao Wan rolled his eyes.
"Don't you young people have a saying that you have to treat your wife like a daughter? You are a boy. Then I will treat you like a son in the future. Before, you were my godson. Now you are my biological son. Dad will treat you well in the future. "
Wei Shicheng said seriously. Tao Wan actually couldn't tell whether he was joking or not. However, he was sure that he was taking advantage of him.
"I'm your wife now that you've given me ten rose-scented carriages? You are really a profiteer. "
"Rest assured. I will pay for the betrothal gifts and dowry. I will not treat you badly."
"Have you really thought it through?" Tao Yuan asked seriously. "You didn't do it on purpose just to trick me into sleeping with you, right? The feelings that I want, are you really going to give me? "
"I used to treat sexual love and spiritual love differently. I felt that physical satisfaction and spiritual satisfaction can't be lumped together. But now I feel that since I am addicted to your body, I don't reject you spiritually. You not only have a good looking appearance, but also an interesting soul. These days, I have carefully thought about it. Since the most suitable person is in front of me, who can satisfy me physically and spiritually, then you are the most suitable soul mate for me. I feel that I have liked you for a long time. It is just that I found out a little late. "
Tao Wan was stunned. He thought of many possibilities, but he didn't think that he would say such a thing. A person without a soul is a walking corpse. In the shell of the body, the soul is the main body.
