Ling Sheng packed up her new shopping bags, feeling so blessed that small bubbles popped up in her heart. There was not a single girl who did not like shopping—buying pretty clothes, shoes, and bags. Besides, they had been personally chosen by the number one fashionista in China, Lu Yubai.
“You’re that happy?” Huo Ci leaned against the door frame and gave her a lazy look. She was such a good-for-nothing that she had been bribed with some purchases.
“Of course.” Ling Sheng turned around, her eyes crinkling as she lifted an exquisite gift box from the table. There was a tie inside, and she smiled as she gestured at him. “This is for you.”
The last time she had bought a tie, the Third Master had taken it away. Since then, she had been quite busy and had forgotten about it. She had picked another one while shopping.
“How many did you buy for Fifth Brother?” For some reason, Huo Ci’s heart ached.
Ling Sheng tiptoed to put on his tie and muttered in confusion, “Why should I buy a tie for Fifth Uncle?”
The corners of Huo Ci’s lips curled up, but he immediately put his expressionless mask back on. “He bought you so many things, but you did not buy anything for him?”
“These items were bought by him because of you. Without you, he would not have known who I am. Even if he wants gifts in return, you can just buy them for his daughter in the future.” Ling Sheng spoke as though this was a fact.
Huo Ci was a tsundere. That brat! Did she think he’d be happy just because she had said that? He just wanted her to pay.
“Tada!” Ling Sheng put on his tie and made a fabulous gesture. Then, she asked in anticipation, “Xiaoqi, how is it?”
Xiaoqi gave her a thumbs-up. “Grandpa is the most handsome man in the world!”
Huo Ci was overjoyed, but his handsome face remained cold. Humph, those two bootlickers!
Ling Sheng had passed the audition and confirmed that she would be the female lead of “Secret”, Tang Jinse.
Mei Xuelin felt a little strange. Why had Hua Ying not sent the confirmation of the news to her agent? Why had he directly informed Ling Sheng instead?
Later, President Ma, who had called Hua Ying to confirm that Ling Sheng was the lead, felt relieved and started preparing for the subsequent publicity work.
There was no official announcement regarding the male and female leads on the Weibo account of the drama “Secret”. She asked around, but Hua Ying replied that it would be announced at the press conference.
Mei Xuelin had been in the entertainment circle for more than 20 years, so she had experienced all kinds of situations. Her sixth sense was very accurate, but she still felt that there was a problem. Thus, she called Zhang Zongmin.
Director Zhang had confirmed that Ling Sheng had gotten the role. Without Ling Sheng, he would not be directing this film. The only issue was that all promotional activities were arranged by Hua Ying, and this was announced on the day of the press conference.
On the day of the “Secret” press conference, Mei Xuelin was not in the country. In the afternoon, she called Ling Sheng.
Ling Sheng had just finished styling and changing her clothes and was still putting on makeup. “Sister Mei, I understand. I’ll act according to the situation. You’ve confirmed this a few times already. You must be really suspicious!”
Sister Mei had always felt that the “Secret” press conference would be chaotic. Ever since she had confirmed that Ling Sheng was the female lead, she had been making countless calls. She had even called her to remind her.
“Okay, be careful. Call me if you face any problems, understand?”
“Yes, I understand, dear sister. I’m putting on makeup now. I can’t talk to you anymore. Don’t worry, I can handle this myself.”
Ling Sheng felt that her biggest problem while filming “Secret” would be Gu Shen. However, she was a qualified actress, so there was no need for her to give up on a role she liked for Gu Shen.
