Chapter 530: An Invitation to Audition from Screenwriter Cloud Seven
Having said her piece, Song Wenye rushed to Shen Xi’s side and described to her the train wreck when Su Ruowan was stripped of her makeup.
Pei Xu quickly returned bearing bags while Lin Ge trailed behind with a spread of breakfast in his hands. The International Class came on them like a hungry pack of wolves.
Song Wenye frowned and mumbled, “I thought Alpha Xu was buying you breakfast.”
Pei Xu drew close and placed some breakfast on the desk before glancing at Shen Xi and company. “Have you guys had your breakfast?”
Shen Xi nodded. Of course, she had had the most important meal of the day. Instead of buying her breakfast, Old Shen got up first thing in the morning and made her noodles with two poached eggs.
Song Wenye lived alone, and it took a lot for her just to feed all her babies at home, let alone herself. She pointed and said, “Alpha Xu, I want the pancake rolled with some crisp fritter.”
Pei Xu threw the steamed bun at her. “Have this instead!”
Song Wenye watched as Pei Xu handed her pancake to Fu Qingxuan. She cast a glance and nothing more because she was fine with anything.
After accepting the pancake, Fu Qingxuan showed his good manners by expressing his gratitude before placing the food on Shen Xi’s desk. He cleared his throat and uttered, “I have two pastured eggs added in the crisp pancake rather than a crisp fritter.”
Song Wenye was left twisting in the wind.
The International Class student froze once again.
F*ck! What the hell was going on? Their relationship was simply a wheel within a wheel!
Oblivious to the surrounding eyes, Pei Xu pulled a chair and sat nearby. He took out the takeaway and began to dig in.
Shen Xi turned to Song Wenye. “I thought you wanted the pancake? Here you go.”
Song Wenye could feel the piercing threat coming from Fu Qingxuan’s eyes. She giggled foolishly. “Nah. I love this steamed bun. You should eat it.”
Shen Xi gazed at Fu Qingxuan. “Are you not going to have any?”
Fu Qingxuan played it cool. “I’m having a steamed bun.”
Shen Xi used a plastic bag to split the pancake in half.
Although Fu Qingxuan’s eyes flickered with delight, he had to moan when taking the food. “I told you I’m having the pancake, why are you still giving it to me?”
Shen Xi, “…”
Would it kill the young master to stop with the stubborn and cocky act?
Sure, Song Wenye might live in a world of her own, but she took notice of a strange phenomenon. Unable to resist, she asked, “It dawned on me that you have similar palates!”
Xixi and the young master preferred the pancake and both ditched dairy for sweetened soy milk. This was not so much a big deal, but the smallest gesture they made while eating was amazingly uncanny. It was not to say she was observant, but they were quite in tune.
Fu Qingxuan smiled at the remark.
Shen Xi, on the other hand, furrowed her brows. Really?
The group merrily enjoyed their breakfast, concluding the breakfast at school only was the icing on the cake. However, this was probably their last breakfast here.
While it was always sad to say goodbye, separation was inevitable in life.
There was no need for the International Class to fill in the college registration forms, except for Shen Xi. They were going to study abroad, including Pei Xu.
The plan to go abroad was in shambles now that Song Wenye chose the glitz and glamor of showbiz. Sure, she participated in the National College Entrance Examination, but her horrible grades scored her a whopping three hundred-odd points in total. Since her marks were only enough for her to get into community college, she planned to repeat the year and retake the exam.
In the end, Shen Xi was the only one who filled in the application form for the college of her choice. As expected, she picked the school of medicine in Capital University, the best school in China for medicine and healthcare.
With today being the application day at No. 4 High School, Su Ruowan and Su Mushi were present as well. Although they did not make top achievers, the attention they received was no less than one.
Su Ruowan’s plagiarism, bad character, and ugliness shook China to the core. Named the shame of No. 4 High School, Su Ruowan lost the support of her peers and became the subject of personal attacks.
Had it not been for the students’ upstanding characters, they would have cut her off at the Top Class and humiliated her in public. People were organizing a petition behind closed doors so higher institutions would not enroll a disgraceful student like her.
It goes without saying that this sort of petition was a waste of effort. The higher institutions were not going to turn their backs on the heiress of the Su family and the future wife of the Gu family.
All was business as usual in the Top Class as if the group had a memory lapse about what had happened to Su Ruowan as they went on with their day.
Meanwhile, Chen Bingbing led the girls to swarm Su Ruowan, sharing chats and laughs in a friendly manner.
“Wanwan, you’re going to be a hit.” Chen Bingbing was gleeful. “You can do it. I heard Cloud Seven the screenwriter barely hands out an invitation to audition.”
“That’s right! That film star, Gong Zhi contacted Cloud Seven in private to star in her movie, but Cloud Seven won’t even give her a chance to audition. I wouldn’t want to be in her shoes.”
“Exactly. Cloud Seven picks actors based on the roles. It’s a surefire you’d get the part if you get the audition. That was the case with ‘The Smiling Nation’. Don’t forget about us when you make it big.”
The girls talked at once about the rumors and secrets they heard, but most of all, they would not stop flattering Su Ruowan.
They paid no heed to the plagiarism and bare face reveal. These were nothing because Cloud Seven had her eye on Wanwan and issued an invitation for an audition.
Everyone in showbiz knew that it was a guaranteed shot to fame to be in Cloud Seven’s work. “The Smiling Nation” found fame for the actors. From the main actors to the supporting roles, all of them made a name for themselves.
It had been six months since the last episode of “The Smiling Nation”, yet the drama remained much talked about. A few days ago, someone did the math and estimated Cloud Seven’s drama had pushed He Pei, Shen Ruoning, and Gao Meng past the A list, four actors towards the A list, and a dozen more to the B list. This was a phenomenal drama indeed.
“I will do my best.” Su Ruowan smiled humbly.
Everyone believed Su Ruowan would withdraw from showbiz after all that happened. The public mocked, taunted, and made fun of her.
Well, let them troll and run their mouths for she had received an invitation from Screenwriter Cloud Seven. To her knowledge, many in the entertainment world had gotten in touch with Cloud Seven, even the most renowned actors who were willing to have a pay cut had the honors.
The invitation to audition from Cloud Seven was the best counterattack to the gossip and those who looked down on her!
