Chapter 55: The Sleeping Fire

Chapter 55

Sang Xueqing took advantage of her drunken state to hug Song Jixing's arm tightly and blurt out the words she had been keeping in her heart for a long time.

"I...I've been watching your dramas..." Sang Xueqing said intermittently, seeming quite drunk.

The middle-aged woman standing nearby helplessly sighed, glanced at Song Jixing, and said, "Please help me out, Miss Song, and take her back to her room."

"Okay!" Song Jixing softly agreed.

When she helped Sang Xueqing to the door of her room, the lights in the room suddenly turned on brightly with a crisp click.

The room was decorated in a very modern and girly orange style. Against the wall was a row of large glass cabinets filled with all kinds of things.

After helping Sang Xueqing onto the bed, Song Jixing's gaze swept over the glass cabinets next to her and saw many photo albums on them, all of her, featuring commercial photos from various stages of her career.

Even the little clay figurines next to them were roles she had played before.

Song Jixing stood still and looked for a few seconds.

The middle-aged woman noticed Song Jixing's gaze and said, "Miss Song, Xueqing has been following you for a long time! She's always been watching your work!"

"Her dream is to stand on the same stage as you one day and collaborate on a project. This dream...has been motivating her progress."

"Thank you for telling me this, Auntie!" Song Jixing simply thanked her, "It's getting late, I should get going."

"I'll walk you downstairs!"

"Thank you for the trouble!"

After the two left, Sang Xueqing, lying in bed, opened her eyes and rolled over in bed, burying her head deep in the quilt.

She admitted that she had deliberately pretended to be drunk, but who knew that she would sober up so quickly after just a short time of tipsiness?

Fortunately, Song Jixing had taken her home and seen the things in her display cabinet.

Would she be warmer to her from now on? Or would she just treat her as a competitor for resources and remain extremely cold?

Sang Xueqing didn't originally want to do this. She thought they were very good friends.

It wasn't until she came out of the bathroom at Lan Ying Company that she heard what Song Jixing's agent said. for new novels

That she was Song Jixing's competitor for resources.

Sang Xueqing didn't want to be misunderstood by the person she liked, so she came up with this idea to prevent Song Jixing from becoming hostile towards her.

She hoped that in the future, they would simply be friends! And not some kind of adversarial relationship!

The singing and dancing competition shows had made many artists popular in recent years, and it was an avenue to stardom.

But Song Jixing had refused, saying she couldn't dance or sing.

At the time, the company had found someone to test Song Jixing's basics, and the results were really not ideal.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Kai said, "Can't you not sing?"

Song Jixing sat upright in the passenger seat, staring at Xu Kai with an extremely serious expression, "What do you think if I try singing? Sing some inspiring songs?"

She wanted to try whether she could motivate people more when singing.

But Xu Kai didn't intend to give Song Jixing this opportunity.

"If you want to sing, we can find you a teacher later to try again. For now, just focus on Director Zhang's movie! An artist needs to be able to do a bit of everything, you don't need to change direction." Xu Kai said.

"If you go sing now, you can only do covers. To be honest, I don't recommend you put effort into singing. There are so many professional singers, apart from vocal ability you also need good music and lyrics, and whether a song becomes popular is also luck! But learning a bit can come in handy at certain galas!" Xu Kai gave his professional judgement.

Song Jixing thought about it for a while, and it made sense, so she didn't dwell on singing.

Singing to inspire people was just an idea of hers. The spiritual energy before didn't rely on her singing either.

After dropping Song Jixing off at the busy residential complex entrance, Xu Kai still exhorted her a few times, "After Director Zhang's movie comes out, you'll gain some public attention to some extent. Living in this complex isn't very convenient, you should consider moving somewhere else."

"The place has already been rented and is being renovated. I'll move after a while." Song Jixing said.

Hearing this, Xu Kai was much more relieved. At least there was something he could persuade her on.

Returning home, Song Jixing discussed her ideas from today with Martial Senior Brother and the others, talking about the source of this spiritual energy.

Everyone had their own opinions, but the consensus was that if Song Jixing wanted to gather more spiritual energy, she would have to stand in front of more people and present a good image.

Becoming a household name celebrity was no simple feat!

It required not just superb personal abilities, but also luck.

What attracted eyes wasn't necessarily becoming popular, it could also be becoming infamous, but infamy didn't necessarily bring spiritual energy.

As they were talking, Song Jixing suddenly noticed Huoling who was already asleep on the sofa.

The cartoon on the TV was still playing, but Huoling had already fallen asleep.

Song Jixing took a look and felt something was off.
