Chapter 962 - Eavesdropping in a Corner

Ling Sheng had felt that trouble would come knocking on the door and it did arrive indeed. Her gaze deepened as she looked at the girl in front of her, whose aura had become stronger. “Hurry up and say what you want to say.”

Song Yiyan looked at her. After she greeted Ling Sheng…

The door of the fitting room was pushed open once again. When the person saw the two girls hugging each other intimately—they looked like lovers making out, she let out a low cough. “Sorry, I didn’t do this on purpose. Please continue.”

Then, she hurriedly left in embarrassment and made to close the door in passing.

Ling Sheng’s eyes widened suddenly as she looked at the person at the door in disbelief. What kind of fate was this? When the woman was about to close the door, she reached out to stop her. “Teacher He Sha.”

He Sha had not expected to be recognized. As she observed the familiar-looking girl in front of her, she finally recognized her. “You’re Ling Sheng?”

After speaking, she took a look at the girl behind her. She had seen her on television before too. She was a female celebrity. There was a complicated look in her eyes, but she was still very respectful of other people’s sexual orientation.

“Teacher He knows me?” Ling Sheng had not expected that she would recognize her. She was pleased inwardly. She had just read the script and met the protagonist herself as soon as she left the house. This was definitely fate.

It seemed like even the heavens could not take it anymore and were reminding her that she had to accept this drama!

“I’m your ‘mama’ fan. I like the show you’re participating in a lot. I will definitely watch the shows that you’re in,” He Sha smiled lovingly. The young lady was really good-looking. She was even prettier than on television. “Director Yu recommended you to me too.”

Ling Sheng knew Director Yu, Yu Gan, who was also the director of this movie ‘Brilliant’. It seemed like her father was telling the truth. Teacher He Sha would also participate in the production of the movie. “Teacher He, what do you think of me then?”

He Sha looked at her seriously and said, “You’re too pretty!”

The young lady in front of her was too beautiful. She was so pretty that she was not suitable to act the role of her character at all. However, Director Yu had said that her acting skills were good and had shown her the photos she had taken in full make-up and costume, as well as those photos that had not been photoshopped, when she had filmed ‘Moon’ in the past. She was indeed a very intelligent actress with the potential to take on different types of roles.

This matter still needed to be discussed at length. The casting had just started. Whether she was suitable or not was not up to her alone to decide either. She had to make a comprehensive decision based on the opinions of all parties.

Song Yiyan also saw the woman in front of her and recognized her. She looked at her and stuttered excitedly, “Teacher He Sha.”

He Sha nodded at her with a smile and greeted her. Then, she looked at the duo and reminded them in a low voice, “Remember to close the door properly next time. It doesn’t matter that I saw it, but it’ll be bad if others see it.”

Ling Sheng thought about it for a long time. When she saw the woman’s expression, she finally realized what was going on. She saw that He Sha had already taken her clothes and left, so she chased after her hurriedly and said anxiously, “Teacher He, we aren’t in the kind of relationship that you are thinking of!”

He Sha tugged at her and adjusted her mask properly before lowering her voice and saying gently, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone. I’ll definitely keep this a secret for you.”

What era were they living in now anyway? She did not discriminate against different sexes either. Homosexuals overseas had already been recognized by the law, and China had been pushing to enact such laws too.

Ling Sheng felt even more anxious. However, when she saw the observant and gentle woman in front of her, she explained, “Teacher He, we’re trying on clothes. We really don’t have that kind of relationship!”

How could it be such a coincidence that Teacher He had chanced upon them when she happened to be pinned against the wall by Song Yiyan? Besides, she recalled that Little White Bunny’s posture with her just now was indeed very ambiguous. It was so ambiguous that it made one’s imagination run wild.

Upon seeing how anxious she was, He Sha smiled and nodded. “I see, I understand.”

When Ling Sheng heard her say ‘I see’, she knew that in reality, He Sha was afraid that she would be embarrassed and put on the spot. She had said that to comfort her but inwardly, she must still think of the two of them as having that kind of relationship.

In order to prove her innocence, she ran over in a hurry and pulled Jun Shiyan over. She pointed at him and said, “Teacher He, this is my boyfriend.”

Jun Shiyan, who had been sitting by the side, smiled happily when the young lady dragged him over to introduce him. He nodded slightly at the woman in front of him as a greeting. “Hi, Teacher He.”

Now that her boyfriend had appeared, He Sha finally believed her. She smiled apologetically, “I’m sorry, my eyesight has gone bad now that I’ve gotten older. Don’t take offense.”

Ling Sheng finally heaved a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the Third Master had come with them. Otherwise, her relationship with Little White Bunny might have been set in stone in Teacher He Sha’s heart at this moment.

He Sha liked Ling Sheng a lot. She was her ‘mama’ fan while her husband was her ‘papa’ fan, and her daughter was her ‘younger sister’ fan. The whole family was her fan. They were very happy to see her and invited them to have coffee and have a seat together.

On the way, Ling Sheng and Song Yiyan were bundled up tightly, so no one recognized them. Many people recognized He Sha, but most of them smiled as they greeted her. They did not dash out to disturb her like those brainless fans.

He Sha had not expected that after so many years, so many people would still recognize her. After she had retired, she had tactfully turned down the opportunity to be a coach in the team and returned to her hometown with her husband to work in the provincial team.

It was also because of Director Yu’s invitation this time that she had returned to this place that had once brought her endless glory.

Song Yiyan, that little simpleton, did not know what had happened at all. She also did not know what Ling Sheng and Teacher He Sha were talking about. However, she took a few looks at Teacher He Sha’s arm, her big eyes full of curiosity.

“Do you want to see my prosthetic limbs?” He Sha smiled at Song Yiyan. This little girl was interesting. Instead of speaking, she just kept sneaking peeks at her shyly.

Song Yiyan shook her head. This was the first time she had seen prosthetics. She was very curious. The prosthetic limbs could even carry coffee. They were also very stable and agile like it was truly her own hands.

He Sha said that her artificial limbs had been created by the latest research from two foreign universities. They were currently the most upmarket artificial limbs in the world. She was very honored to have been invited to be the first test subject. After practicing, she could use her arms and fingers freely.

Ling Sheng had just finished reading the script and was about to find someone to share her opinion with when the person in question had come knocking on her door. Naturally, she could not let go of this opportunity. However, she did not appear too eager either. She had a good sense of propriety.

He Sha liked her a lot too. After hearing her understanding of the script, she had to admit that Director Yu’s insight when it came to choosing the right person was really good. She liked Ling Sheng even more.

After drinking coffee and parting ways with He Sha, Ling Sheng brought Song Yiyan to choose a gift. In the end, after much deliberation, Song Yiyan chose a snuff bottle and she did not buy a good number of clothes before they went back to their respective homes.

When Ling Sheng reached home, she felt that she should take on this movie no matter what, especially after meeting and interacting with Teacher He Sha. She could not bear to give up this script even more. In the end, she made up her mind and ran into the house to find her grandma. She pulled her to her room mysteriously and even locked the door.

“Grandma, what do you think I should do?” Ling Sheng pouted and tugged at her grandma’s hand. She was in such a difficult position. Why did she have to tell a lie back then? Now, she had no way to retract her words.

Su Xiyin smiled helplessly at her. “Why? Do you regret it now? Grandma thought you were so eager to get married. What are you going to do?”

Ling Sheng did not know either. If she had known what to do, she would not have come to find her grandma to discuss this. She sniffled and bit her lips pitifully. “Grandma, I was wrong. I know I was wrong. What do you think I should do now? Should I make an abject apology?”

Su Xiyin sighed and pointed at her. “You. You should not be worrying about yourself now. You have to think about what will happen to Third Master Jun if you spill the beans.”

Huo Ci had been sitting beside the recording studio on the second floor, drinking coffee. When he saw the dang brat pull his mother into the room mysteriously, he had a feeling that she was up to no good. He followed her closely downstairs, wanting to hear exactly what hogwash she had up her sleeve.
