The minute she heard mention of Tan Xue’s name, Qin Nuan’s footsteps stopped instinctively.
The laughter in the bathroom continued, and someone else chimed in, “But seriously, this Sister Tan asked for it. She relied on the fact that she’s already a senior-ranked manager of the company and refuses to take me in. In the end, after that case, all those A-list celebrities under her ran off, and none of the celebs she signed on after that became popular. That’s why she’s relegated to bringing along newbies who aren’t famous or popular at all. What a terrible fall from grace! She’s fallen right to the bottom!”
Wang Zixuan continued to add fuel to the fire, “That newbie, Qin Nuan, that she brought? Instead of taking care of her makeup and dressing, she’s just sitting in a corner reading the novel! What a joke! She thinks she can fight with me for the role of Song Sisi like that?”
“Sister Zixuan, don’t worry, the role of Song Sisi is definitely yours!”
Qin Nuan was standing in the corridor outside. She shook her head and laughed, then turn to walk off in a different direction.
She pulled her phone out as she walked.
Wang Zixuan’s words had piqued her curiosity, and she tried searching for what happened to Tan Xue back then. She wanted to know how she went from being a top A-list celebrity manager to a jinxed manager.
But after Qin Nuan typed Tan Xue’s name into the search box, she thought about it a little more, then deleted the words.
Not everything online was based on real facts, so they weren’t trustworthy sources of information.
She decided to wait for Tan Xue to tell her about what happened to her.
With that in mind, Qin Nuan started typing Wang Zixuan’s name into the search box instead.
She was going to see who this female idol with a Wikipedia entry was.
Wang Zixuan, born 1 January 1999 in Baiyun, City A. Chinese female celebrity, 21 years old. She debuted in 2018 and is currently a member of the female idol group, T-SIX.
T-SIX, a top Chinese female idol group jointly produced by Warm Hues Media Entertainment and Lingrui Capital, formed in 2020. They were originally known as T-Girls. The members are He Xin, Fang Shiying, Wang Zixuan, Coco, and Shen Meng. In June this year, Bai Weiwei returned to the country and became a member of T-Girls and subsequently took on its leader’s role. T-Girls then changed its name to T-SIX.
OH! So this Wang Zixuan was a teammate of that hypocritical woman who loved pretending to be the innocent and harmless victim!
Once Qin Nuan confirmed this, she put her phone away. She looked up to see that Tan Xue was standing in front of a window at the other end of the corridor in a daze. The cold breeze from outside had blown her short hair into a mess, and from the back, Tan Xue looked like she was feeling very dejected.
Qin Nuan walked over quickly. “Sister Tan, why are you standing here? The wind is extreme here, and you might catch a chill.”
Tan Xue snapped out of her daze, and she seemed to be avoiding Qin Nuan’s gaze. “Xiaonuan, why did you come out of the room?”
Qin Nuan caught Tan Xue’s avoidant gaze and wondered if Tan Xue had heard some nasty words about herself as well.
But she didn’t ask her any questions and just replied, “I saw that you hadn’t come back to the room after such a long time, so I thought I’d come out and look for you.”
“I was asking the director’s assistant some questions, so that took quite a while.”
Tan Xue passed the documents she was holding to Qin Nuan. “This is the scene you have to act out later. Take a look first and try to get a good sense of the character. The overall director for this production is Li Yu. He’s a very famous director in the industry, and he’s directed many mainstream television dramas, so he has rigorous standards on actors. Song Sisi might only be a supporting role, but Director Li’s standards are still pretty high.”
Qin Nuan took the documents from her and looked straight at Tan Xue. “Sister Tan, don’t worry. I’ll definitely get the role of Song Sisi.”
“Someone who has fallen right to the bottom of the valley knows exactly how to climb back up because she once stood right at the peak.”
The young lady’s words echoed firmly in the empty corridor and seemed to be able to raise a tsunami of emotions inside her as they fell upon her heart.
Tan Xue focused her gaze and looked back at the young lady in front of her. She suddenly felt that Qin Nuan was her hope to turn the tables and make a comeback.
