Chapter 35 -34: Your Future is Promising
Mentioning Shen Jingxiu immediately gave him a headache.
“Mom, I don’t want to think about that stuff for now, so there’s no need to arrange any more blind dates.”
“But you’re not getting any younger.”
Shen Jingxiu simply bowed his head.
Just then, he noticed his friend request had been accepted.
After accepting him, Wenyan sent over a cute emoji.
Shen Jingxiu quickly typed out a message.
‘I’m Shen Jingxiu’
Wenyan replied in a second: ‘I know, thanks, big brother’
‘No need to thank me.’
After the brief chat, Shen Jingxiu found himself involuntarily clicking on Wenyan’s Moments.
According to his usual style, once he finished chatting with someone, he would exit the chat interface with that person.
But at this moment, he was browsing through Wenyan’s Moments.
Her photography skills were decent; she made those lipsticks look very upscale.
As he casually scrolled through her earlier posts, Shen Jingxiu suddenly realized that Wenyan was an extremely simple person.
Her happiness seemed very simple as well.
It was quite rare and enviable.
–
The next day.
Wenyan received a notification for an audition from the crew of “Lost Voice,” along with a short script excerpt.
The idea was for her to audition with this segment of the script, set for the following day.
Therefore, Wenyan returned to her apartment that day, because one of the rooms had been converted by her; it was equipped with several huge mirrors to facilitate her acting practice.
She did not return to the Shen family’s villa that evening.
The next afternoon, she arrived half an hour early.
The scene she was to audition was of a deaf-mute woman sold into the mountains, trying to convey her sufferings to a university student who had come to offer voluntary teaching in the village.
The script demanded full emotional engagement, requiring the actor to shift from joy to excitement to utter disappointment in a very short time, and also to have some understanding of sign language.
The actor who paired with Wenyan in the audition was testing for the role of the volunteer teaching university student.
Shortly after the previous group finished, it was quickly their turn to take the stage.
Before going up, her partner visibly tensed up.
He initiated a conversation with Wenyan: “Hello, I’m Wang Che, we’re going to be a team in a moment.”
As he spoke, he wiped his hands on his body and then reached out to Wenyan.
“This is my first time auditioning, so I’m quite nervous. I hope I won’t affect you later on.”
Wenyan smiled and shook his hand: “Wenyan. Actually, it’s also my first time. Just relax, later don’t look at the equipment or at others, just look at me. When performing this scene, you just need to look at your co-actor, don’t worry about anything else.”
“Okay!”
Wenyan was very beautiful, and when she wasn’t smiling, she seemed cold and unapproachable, but as soon as she did smile, she gave off a very approachable vibe.
Her smile encouraged her counterpart, and they quickly adjusted their breathing to start acting.
Wenyan had experience from her previous life, so she quickly got into character.
She had a firm grasp of the role, and her performance was filled with genuine emotion, whether in body language or in the transition of feelings, as though she was the character written in the script.
Her co-actor was initially very tense and couldn’t relax, but he took Wenyan’s advice and ignored everything else, focusing only on the character Wenyan was portraying.
Gradually, he also immersed himself in his role, and together they delivered an outstanding performance.
The director even clapped and cheered after the performance had ended.
The performances of the previous groups did not receive such high praise from the director.
However, the director did not cast the roles on the spot but asked everyone to go back and wait for a notification.
As he was leaving, Wang Che stopped Wenyan.
“Your performance just now was truly spectacular, I was almost moved by you. At first, I was still playing my role, but soon I found myself drawn into the plot, and then I became part of the story as well. You were amazing, thank you!”
Receiving such sincere praise naturally made Wenyan happy.
“Thank you for your appreciation, I think your performance was very good too, you became much more at ease after letting go of the nerves.”
Wang Che scratched his head embarrassedly, “Really? Thank you for the encouragement. Well, I should be going now, thank you so much for today.”
“No need to thank me, bye.”
After saying goodbye, Wenyan also prepared to leave.
But unexpectedly, the screenwriter of “Lost Voice” caught up with her.
“Wenyan, I have a couple of things to say to you, do you have a moment?”
The two found a quiet place to talk, and the screenwriter said to Wenyan with a smile:
“Your performance just now was fantastic; both the director and the assistant director couldn’t stop praising you. If nothing unexpected happens, the part will be yours.”
“It’s settled just like that?”
“In any case, you have my vote. I do have some say in the casting decisions.”
Before transmigrating into the book, Wenyan had her share of difficulties with resources, and if the screenwriter wasn’t a woman, she would have suspected there were ulterior motives.

But why did the screenwriter come to talk to her alone?
Could it be that someone from the Shen Family helped her? Su Yang, or perhaps Shen Jinghe?
Wenyan smiled politely and said to the screenwriter, “May I ask why you chose me? There are still several groups left to perform.”
“Because of your attitude,” the screenwriter looked at Wenyan with a hint of admiration, “Not only was your performance outstanding just now, but your sign language skills were also very proficient, a quality lacking in many other actors.”
Wenyan nodded, it was because of that.
“I did take some special classes, thinking that since I was aiming for ‘Lost Voice,’ I should be well-prepared. After all, opportunity is for those who are prepared.”
“I know, I saw you at the sign language class twice. You were very serious, and now it’s rare to find an actor who takes their roles this seriously.”
The screenwriter then patted Wenyan on the shoulder, “Keep it up! I believe you have a promising future.”
–
Wenyan was very happy all the way back to the Shen family’s villa.
Because of the affirmation from the screenwriter of “Lost Voice.”
And she was also proud to have earned the role through her own efforts legitimately.
But amidst her pride, she suddenly thought of something.
That was, once she took on this movie, she would have to stay in the crew for at least three or four months, hence she might not have much energy left for Shen Zhirou.
However, acting was what she had always wanted to do, and she certainly wouldn’t give up this opportunity she had fought for just because of a Shen Zhirou.
And in fact, she didn’t need to choose at all.
That evening, Shen Zhirou didn’t come back at all.
Wenyan learned from Su Yang that Shen Zhirou had come back in the afternoon, packed her luggage, and went on a business trip.
This time, Shen Zhirou took the initiative to follow an international project, which was going to take several months at least.
Two days later, Wenyan also received the formal notification from the crew, asking her to join them.
Now without an agent, she signed the contract herself before informing Su Yang and the others.
Su Yang wanted to arrange an assistant for her, but Wenyan declined.
Because she felt that with her current workload, she simply did not need to bring an assistant along.
Once the matter was settled, Wenyan proactively contacted Shen Jinghe.
