Xie Jiahui seed burdened with worries, her spirits low, but after a few trips to the scenic area with He Jinxia, her mood gradually adjusted.
He Jinxia felt this girl was both silly and sweet and couldn’t bear to see her suffer a heavy blow. Thinking it better to end the pain quickly, she told the girl in front of her that she really was Sheng Yan’s girlfriend.
But Xie Jiahui was completely convinced Jinxia was joking, just lying, and even retorted that she was still Sheng Yan’s first love, his ’white moonlight,’ his cinnabar mole... all sorts of bizarre and fantastical beings bubbled up, making He Jinxia sigh repeatedly.
The "love rival" was too silly; it wasn’t satisfying or fun for Jinxia to even consider bullying her.
So friendships begin with helping hands, others with elders... He Jinxia never expected that her friendship with Xie Jiahui would start from "rival banter."
Sotis they played so wildly that they weren’t back until almost midnight, prompting a livid Sheng Yan to find them and forcefully herd the two back to the hotel.
Because of this, Xie Jiahui secretly told He Jinxia that she thought maybe Brother Sheng Yan really did like her; after all, he had never taken the initiative to invite her to dinner parties before, let alone co to make sure she was ho by a certain ti.
He Jinxia rolled her eyes unabashedly and stated the truth, "He was looking for ; he only turned to you because he couldn’t reach by phone."
This remark earned He Jinxia an eye roll from Xie Jiahui, who just wouldn’t believe it.
He Jinxia returned to China on October 1st; Sheng Yan was to leave a few days later due to an important eting that day, so he couldn’t co to the airport. He expressed his strong discontent the night before, holding her and kissing her for a long ti.
His wistful gaze at one point made Jinxia feel like a heartless woman who had abandoned her husband and child, and it took her a long while to shake off this strange sensation.
These past few days, playing together with Xie Jiahui had rapidly improved their relationship, and she ca to the airport to see her off.
As Jinxia was about to go through security, she hugged Xie Jiahui and said, "I forgot to tell you, my relationship with him isn’t public yet. Don’t talk about us dating."
Xie Jiahui: "...Now I believe you. You’re a great actress."
He Jinxia, puzzled: "Hmm?"
Xie Jiahui: "You’re a total drama queen, acting for so long. Aren’t you tired?"
Understanding, Jinxia looked at her helplessly, very sincerely saying, "I’m telling you the truth."
Xie Jiahui casually nodded: "Mhm mhm mhm, I’m telling you the truth too."
He Jinxia: "...I’m serious."
Xie Jiahui: "Mhm mhm mhm, I’m serious too."
He Jinxia felt like flipping a table; she really couldn’t be friends with this person!
Under Xie Jiahui’s gaze, which was filled with amusent, and with a sense of resignation in her heart, He Jinxia embarked on her journey back to China.
Once on the plane, amidst the sweet voice of the flight attendant’s announcents, He Jinxia casually turned off her phone.
Luo You was sitting on the plane on the phone, only ending the call when he heard the broadcast reminder.
He had just found the "airplane mode" on his phone and was about to press it when an entertainnt news notification popped up, causing Luo You to widen his eyes slightly.
He quickly clicked on it, and as soon as the content appeared, he then pressed the airplane mode, completely disconnecting from the internet.
Luo You scanned the content, frowning tightly, then turned and tapped Cheng Xiaohua sitting next to him, asking her to pass the phone to He Jinxia beside her.
He Jinxia received her phone, scanned casually, and her body involuntarily straightened up, her expression grave.
[Breaking! Another powerhouse of JY girl group goes solo, without ng Wan, is JY still JY?]
He Jinxia quickly browsed through the entire matter, extracting several key pieces of information from the exaggerated and speculative comnts.
First, ng Wan had confird her departure from JY and had posted a written termination letter on Weibo.
Second, ng Wan’s future plans were unclear, as she didn’t specify what she intended to do after terminating the contract.
Third, JY had been trying hard to retain ng Wan, as they had been arguing about the termination for a week, with ng Wan’s statent only being released yesterday.
After reading through the article, He Jinxia was filled with both curiosity and joy, her eyes flickering thoughtfully.
JY is a group composed of nine mbers, but among these mbers, the popularity varies greatly, with team leader Li Zimu and ng Wan having the highest popularity and standing out for their looks among the other beauties.
By her ear, Luo You’s inquiring voice ca through, "Do you know what’s going on?"
He Jinxia shook her head, "If you hadn’t shown , I wouldn’t even know she had already left the group."
Luo You pondered for a mont, then said, "I’ve just seen it myself, Da You should have detailed information, after we land, I’ll call and ask him."
That Luo You had not told Zhang Dayou about He Jinxia’s estrangent from JY ant that Zhang Dayou naturally would not pay special attention to JY’s movents.
Furthermore, they were in the United States, so news from China could be delayed, and changes among JY’s mbers related to Jinxia were not negative news. Thus, it was normal for Zhang Dayou not to have inford Luo You specifically.
He Jinxia nodded slightly, murmuring a soft "Mhm," seemingly struck by a thought, she then said, "After we return, find a ballet teacher, I want to practice ballet."
Cheng Xiaohua asked out of curiosity, "Why do you suddenly want to learn ballet?"
He Jinxia responded, "I was introduced to a director by a friend at a banquet recently, and that director needs a Chinese actress who can dance ballet. I gave your phone number to the director, but since I don’t know how to dance ballet, my chances of landing the role are slim."
Brother Luo asked, "Is it for a lead role or?"
He Jinxia replied, "A supporting role, I guess. The part shouldn’t be large, the director is just interested in the Chinese market, so he wants to pick a Chinese star to play a role in it."
Upon hearing it’s a supporting role, Brother Luo lost interest in the movie. Knowing it was aid at leveraging star popularity, he was even less enthused.
"Being in a film is pretty good, but now you’re mainly pursuing roles with substance and depth. Such roles, set up for popularity, are usually not complex, and could even rely be a token appearance. If the role isn’t good, even if you pass the screening, I won’t let you take it."
He Jinxia’s lips curled into a smile. She didn’t say much more to Luo You, just acknowledging with a knowing affirmation.
Even if she told Luo You that the director was famous, what would it matter? Firstly, she couldn’t dance ballet and would fail the initial selection.
Secondly, Deng Zhaoyan seed to really like the role, too, and with her fa and status in China, Jinxia would likely not stand a chance against her. Better not to reveal too much and prevent Brother Luo from getting his hopes up unnecessarily.
The reason she wanted to learn ballet was that Xie Jiahui had told her the day before that her uncle was still looking for a lead actress, and they would only decide on whom to cast for the supporting role afterwards.
Taking advantage of the ti back in China, out of a sense of commitnt and responsibility, He Jinxia hoped to make a good impression on the director during the screen tests.
It didn’t matter if she didn’t get the role. If she conveyed the right attitude and left a favorable impression on the director, that’s how one expands their network.
