39 Background Actress?

Hui Yin took the lift to the highest floor, and walked past several chattering actresses that were excitedly talking about the audition.

Her heart sank.

She had recognized some of their faces, and realized that they were all very popular and well-known actresses in the industry.

As soon as she stepped inside the waiting room, Hui Yin's suspicions were confirmed.

There was a huge line-up of actresses inside, and all of them had popular accomplishments under their belt.

As she walked over to register, she heard a disdainful voice exclaim: "What? That background actress signed up too?!"

Hui Yin turned around and saw Wu Chuntao and her faithful crony, Guo Liqin. Wu Chuntao's voice had attracted a lot of attention from the other actresses, and they all turned their scornful gaze at Hui Yin.

"A background actress? Why is an extra like her auditioning for Liu Jun's new song? Isn't she being too shameless?"

"Does she really think that she has a chance? Did she think a popular idol like Liu Jun would be stupid enough to pick her?"

"Pffft...maybe she just lost her way! Why don't we point her to the right direction?"

Wu Chuntao sneered. To have the audacity to come here, that slut must really want to lose face!

"Ah, it's because Sister Fei isn't here, that's why a certain bad dog is starting to misbehave," she said, clicking her tongue. "Maybe we should teach her a lesson?"

"For a rookie like her to come here and ruin the image of Liu Jun, she certainly deserves it!" Guo Liqin chimed.

Hui Yin took up her place in the line, and waited patiently for the audition to begin.

Why should she mind their insults? Such boring, repetitive remarks were not worthy of her reply.

So Hui Yin simply took out a pair of earphones, and plugged it to her ears.

There, problem solved.

She listened to a couple of Liu Jun's songs as she waited, to prepare her mind for the character that she was going to portray.

There were no leaks as to what <Captive> was all about, which was very unusual. Usually for an audition of a song PV, they were given a bit of prior information about the song lyrics so that they could interpret it on their own.

Hui Yin hadn't listened to <Captive> in her past life, so she didn't have an advantage in that area either. To ready herself for the audition, she began to listen to all of Liu Jun's songs, even those that didn't become famous.

Little by little, she began to understand how he created his songs, and through it, she slowly pieced in her mind what kind of song <Captive> might be.

Not too long after, the auditions began.

A female staff walked over to them and announced that they should enter according to their numbered sequence. After the first actress was called, the rest of them began to nervously fix their make-up, while their managers coached them on what to do.

Sister Su had also offered to come to the audition with Hui Yin, but she politely declined. She knew how busy her manager was.

As Hui Yin waited for her turn, her stomach grumbled in protest again.

Her face paled.
