He Jinxia understood and her eyes flickered slightly, a trace of interest forming at the corners of her mouth. She murmured softly, "A double-edged sword, huh..."
On the phone, Luo You took the initiative to end the discussion. "I’ll talk to you in detail after you arrive at the company, how about coming to the company tomorrow?"
He Jinxia had just returned to the staff dormitory from the company, and Luo You didn’t want her to be too exhausted by traveling back and forth.
However, He Jinxia was very interested in costu dramas, and she had originally thought she wouldn’t receive any acting offers until after the movie’s release. Now there was an offer ready for her, and it was in the costu genre she was skilled in—how could she not be excited?
Therefore, the usually reserved He Jinxia couldn’t help but get excited at this mont, and without a second thought, she said, "No need, I’ll head to the company in a bit. After all, it’s less than half an hour away from the dormitory."
Before hanging up the phone, He Jinxia said sothing to Luo You with the steadiness of a calming needle—
"Brother Luo, I can perform in costu dramas. Among the second-tier actors, no one will perform better than !"
Her assertive words ca through the phone, making Luo You’s heart tremble fiercely.
His first reaction was to wonder if He Jinxia’s words were too arrogant, but then the image of her performing a monologue from the past flashed through his mind.
At that ti, the monologue He Jinxia perford was indeed a costu drama, and it was truly astounding.
Luo You slowly set down his phone, his eyes sparkling with intensity, and thought if He Jinxia had such confidence, then he as her agent must give even more support!
In the staff dormitory, He Jinxia changed out of her sweat-soaked clothes, and without applying makeup, she donned a hat, sunglasses, and a mask, then draped a trench coat over herself before heading out.
New Year’s Day was just a few days away, and the weather was getting colder by the day. She opened her room door and was greeted by a chilly draft from the corridor, which lacked heating.
He Jinxia wrapped her coat tighter around herself and walked toward the elevator. She had only taken a few steps when a surprised voice suddenly rang in her ears—
"Jinxia? Is that you, Jinxia?!"
He Jinxia paused, glancing to the side. The woman’s dormitory next to hers had two fashionably dressed won standing inside. Despite the cold weather, their bare, long legs seed to radiate heat, warming up the atmosphere instantly.
One of the won, with bright eyes, ran over to He Jinxia on high heels, "clopping" loudly, and took her arm, looking at her with great curiosity, and exclaid,
"Jinxia, it’s really you. I didn’t mistake soone else for you. Oh my god, you’ve lost a lot of weight, I almost didn’t recognize you! If I hadn’t seen your photo on W-blog, if you were standing in front of today, I wouldn’t believe you were Jinxia..."
The woman’s warm and hearty voice brought back long-forgotten mories for He Jinxia, her gaze becoming slightly distant as she finally recognized who this woman was—
ng Wan, a mber of the JY girl group.
She was a woman whom the forr He Jinxia had been very jealous of.
It wasn’t just that ng Wan was beautiful, talented in singing and dancing, and had a good personality, but she was also the epito of a wealthy and beautiful woman.
Yes, ng Wan was a rich second-generation. In terms of background, no other mber of the JY girl group had as profound a background as her.
That is to say, while the other mbers treated the JY girl group as a career to strive for, ng Wan saw it as nothing more than a ga. She was the most nonchalant about participating in any group activity or event.
The forr He Jinxia couldn’t stand this attitude of hers and was jealous of ng Wan, who seed perfect in every way, so their relationship was very distant. They hardly spoke—in fact, it was He Jinxia who unilaterally refused to communicate with ng Wan.
No matter what had happened in the past, it had all drifted away with the wind. He Jinxia took off her sunglasses and mask, smiling slightly at ng Wan, and said in a gentle voice, "It’s been a long ti, ng Wan."
After losing weight, the woman revealed her delicate and beautiful features, her eyes shining brightly and clearly, now full of mirth as she looked at her, causing ng Wan to be montarily stunned.
Especially He Jinxia’s eyes, which were slightly upturned with laughter, looked mischievously bright as if she were a fox, beguiling and enchanting yet tinged with an innocent naivety.
It wasn’t just n who would be affected, even as a woman, ng Wan felt her heart racing —
What a gaze that could kill!
ng Wan couldn’t help but shiver, lifting her hand to cover her eyes, murmuring, "They say every fatty has potential, and that’s so true. You look so different after losing weight, and now you’re so pretty..."
Listening to her murmured words, He Jinxia burst out laughing with a "pfft".
Upon hearing the laughter, ng Wan couldn’t help but lower her hand to sneak a peek, only to feel as if her heart were struck by Cupid’s arrow, thumping nonstop.
She imdiately shivered again and turned away, "I can’t take it, this charm doesn’t even spare won..."
Seeing that ng Wan was getting more and more preposterous, He Jinxia’s face turned slightly embarrassed, and she quickly said, "ng Wan, I have to go out for a bit. Let’s get together another ti when I’m free. Oh, do you have my WeChat? I’ll add you!"
The original host had so unresolved issues from her days in the JY girl group, and now that she had bumped into the amiable ng Wan, He Jinxia found it a perfect opportunity to probe for information.
Every celebrity was incredibly busy, so even though their dorms were just next door, it had taken a long ti for He Jinxia to run into ng Wan again.
ng Wan nodded eagerly, happily saying, "Sure, when we’re both free, let’s go shopping together. You have to share with how you lost weight!"
It must be said, weight loss is a topic that’s always tiless among won’s conversations and a great one for fostering closer relationships and promoting friendship, especially for soone like He Jinxia who was a successful example of weight loss, naturally having an advantage.
Just as the two were exchanging numbers on their phones, another mber of the girl group, who had been standing inside the room, walked over, tugged at ng Wan, and said, "The leader has an urgent matter for us, she’s asking us to get there within ten minutes."
ng Wan was sowhat confused, "Ten minutes? That’s not right, didn’t we just finish an event and return to the dorm to rest?"
Wen Ningning kept her gaze fixed on ng Wan, scarcely even glancing at He Jinxia, with a touch of impatience in her voice as she said, "You’re asking , but who can I ask? Hurry up and go down!"
He Jinxia looked at Wen Ningning, a thoughtful expression crossing her eyes. For so reason, she always felt that Wen Ningning was deliberately avoiding her.
Her gaze beca more focused, sothing felt off.
In the past within the girl group, aside from the leader Li Zimu, it was Wen Ningning who had been the most patient with He Jinxia and often encouraged her. So why was it that today their relationship seed colder than with the less familiar ng Wan?
ng Wan wanted to say more to He Jinxia, but she was promptly dragged away by Wen Ningning.
He Jinxia stood her ground, still hearing Wen Ningning’s anxious urging in her ears, "Let’s hurry down, it won’t be good to keep the leader waiting!"
ng Wan, while being pulled away, turned her head to glance at He Jinxia, her eyes filled with a hint of apology.
He Jinxia gave her a warm smile, stretched out her hand, and waved, making a goodbye gesture, indicating she didn’t mind.
Just as they walked into the elevator, He Jinxia took a few steps forward, then suddenly called out, "Wen Ningning!"
