Chi Wan turned off her phone, locked the door and switched off the lights. The darkness gave her a sense of security.
She did not intend to go out these two days, and she no longer cared about how the company would deal with her.
It was raining cats and dogs outside. She felt that her apartment was the most comfortable place to be in.
Chi Wan cut herself off from the outside world and remained in her apartment for three days and two nights.
She subsequently had no idea how much of an uproar her relationship with Wen Mo had caused.
His background was delicate yet honorable, and most people deeply revered him.
Wen Mo was undoubtedly a powerful and influential figure. His acquaintances would refer to him as “Second Young Master”, which denoted his rank.
There was a renowned entity in China known as Wen Financial Group. However, this group had ties with the military.
Everybody understood what the military signified, and for that, they were afraid.
The group also owned an entertainment company in the city —— Dong Yu.
It was also Chi Wan’s employer.
The reporters wondered whether Chi Wan dated Second Young Master Wen because of this.
Still… He was not the manager of Dong Yu…
The media almost went insane as the reporters spent days and nights waiting at Dong Yu’s entrance. They attempted to obtain info from the crew members working on Chi Wan’s latest TV show. They were willing to do anything for a scoop.
Dong Yu’s senior management officials, including Joy, were also looking for Chi Wan. However, she seemed to have vanished into thin air.
On the morning of the third day, Chi Wan stepped out of her apartment.
The calmness within her was restored. She had suppressed all of her pain, hardships, and fear of the future.
Her wounds were healed and she was prepared for the upcoming battle!
She put on a disguise and arrived at the company. At first, she assumed Joy would unleash his wrath upon her when he saw her.
On the contrary, his attitude towards her was unexpectedly warm and friendly, even to the point of buttering her up!
“Wan Wan, my dear, you’ve finally shown up! Where have you been these past two days? Did you know I was worried sick? Oh, right, I have good news for you. Your favorite film director, Liu Yun, has invited you to audition for “The Path of Danger”!”
“Haha, you’ll be the second female lead this time! The audition’s today. Let’s go, or else we’ll be late!”
Chi Wan was puzzled. She had a feeling that something fishy was going on.
She had disobeyed her boss. Does this mean that he would no longer hold her responsible?
A confused Chi Wan was led into a car. Along the way, Chi Wan flipped through the script quietly as she listened to Joy’s ramblings.
“Wan Wan, you’re about to get your big break! For the past few years, I’ve always felt that it’s a shame that a person with great acting skills like you can’t become famous, all because of a lack of resources! Things are better now. Did you know how many scripts I have received these two days? TV shows, movies, take your pick!”
Chi Wan remained silent. She still felt that things should not have developed this way…
Due to Second Young Master Wen, the company would have probably avoided oppressing her, but she hardly believed they would put her on a pedestal.
She slowly detected the smell of a set-up.
Noticing her silence, Joy gritted his teeth and a hint of malice appeared in his gaze.
If the boss had not set up his own plans, he would not have to lower himself in the presence of this b*tch!
They soon arrived at the venue of the audition. Chi Wan changed into the second female lead’s costume, which was a policewoman’s uniform. She slowly raised her eyebrows when she saw the tough and smart-looking woman in the mirror.
For now, she did not care about the sudden change in the company’s treatment towards her and decided to take a step at a time. Before she was able to reject it, she could only accept the offer.
Nevertheless, she had to remain cautious.
She must not fall into a trap again…
Chi Wan smoothened the creases on her outfit and opened the door of the fitting room. However, when she lifted her gaze, she was surprised at the presence of the man she saw.
Huo Tianye!
