Yan Xi finally pushed Wen Hang away. It was alright for him not to be sober, but she shouldn’t.

Coincidentally at this time, two staff members of the movie crew entered the washroom. Wen Hang was still hugging her. Yan Xi didn’t try to conceal it at all, she shouted towards them immediately: “Teacher Wen is drunk, please help me out, I can’t carry him.”

Therefore, this physical contact wouldn’t have any ambiguous interpretation and became logical instead.Full novel: Starting Over in the Entertainment Circle (NPH) — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Later on, Wen Hang was brought back to the hotel by his assistant. Everyone drank a few more shots of alcohol. They then hugged Yan Xi and wished her well before going on their separate ways home.

Even the director Shen Chang Ning who didn’t talk much during the shoot said to Yan Xi before they parted: “I look forward to our next partnership.”

He entered his car after he said that. Yan Xi only smiled politely and watched the director leave. Her manager, Chun Jie, who rushed towards her after the second half, caressed Yan Xi’s lower jaw like she was petting a cat. Her face was red, looking slightly drunk as she said: “Xiao Xi Xi, your future is bright!”

Yan Xi only smiled.

Yan Xi moved to a new company, so naturally her manager had changed under Gong Yun Ting’s arrangement. That person was Chun Jie. Yan Xi lost her memory and she didn’t care about the gossip in the circle, so she only knew from Gong Yun Ting that “Chun Jie is a bada*s person”. However she had no clue about those “achievements” that Chun Jie had accomplished in the entertainment circle.

Gong Yun Ting already gave Yan Xi the best manager he had, so he naturally didn’t need to recruit those minor people like Ah Zhu Jie. As for her assistant Xiao Qi, although she was still a newbie who was new to the working field, timid and not that smart, she did give her best to take care of her. She and Yan Xi developed a friendship born of “hardships”, especially when she found out that Xiao Qi’s father was seriously ill and hospitalized while her mother had to pay for her little brother and sister’s studies with a meager salary, Yan Xi asked Gong Yun Ting if Xiao Qi could follow her here. Gong Yun Ting nodded, but said: “After some time.” The source of this chapter is novelping dot com.

Yan Xi didn’t understand what Gong Yun Ting meant at that time, until <Qing Shi Ming Yue> released the first teaser…

Aside from Yan Xi, all the main characters in <Qing Shi Ming Yue> were quite famous. When the teaser was released, a few related topics appeared in the hot searches instantaneously, especially Yan Xi’s name.

Some internet users created the topics. They were probably the higher quality keyboard warriors that were hired by Gong Yun Ting’s company using a huge amount of money. Most of them claimed that they were just passersby who ceaselessly praised Yan Xi’s beauty and ancient costume. They even picked some certain scenes that flashed by in the movie teaser to compliment her acting.

Therefore, besides the usual black history and discussion on changing leads, #Yan Xi’s acting#, #Yan Xi’s beauty#, #Yan Xi’s acting will speak on its own#, #Most beautiful ancient costume female lead# and more topics interlaced between those negative topics to dominate the hot searches continuously.

Among them all, there were really some new fans who fell for her beauty.

The internet users’ discussions were very heated up.

Two days later, the posters of Chen Man Xi and her new drama <Red Wall Willow> went up in the hot searches.

The fans heated up once again.

Chen Man Xi’s official fan group directly shared the poster with the words: Truly the one and only ancient costume beauty.

The two female leads of the two shows shared the same gossip and rivalry, similar looks and ancient shows of the same background. Not just the fans, the audience and people outside the circle all knew that something interesting was coming up. Those two shows didn’t even start broadcasting yet but the internet users had started to analyze their differences and who would win and lose.

Yan Xi didn’t care about all of these. Chun Jie didn’t care as well, she helped her to choose her scripts, organize her schedule, and did some appropriate training for the scripts.

After the second teaser of <Qing Shi Ming Yue> was released, <Red Wall Willow> followed closely behind. The next few days, they released the trailers and behind-the-scenes of the main leads. <Qing Shi Ming Yue> released the final, extended version of the preview, and even announced that their main characters would join the recording of the top-notch variety show <Xing Guang Cui Can>. The next day, <Red Wall Willow> released their main theme song and the newest version of their trailer.

The variety shows were the same like dramas, they were pre-recorded. After they were edited, they would be broadcasted according to the show’s arrangement. The fans who joined the live shooting were also filtered beforehand. Aside from the fans of the movie crew and the “extra actors” who were planned by the company, they needed to make sure there were no aggressive fans from either their own company or the rival company.

The shoot went very smoothly. They were simply playing games, making appropriate exposure and advertising their new movie in a cheerful atmosphere.

Before the shoot, Chun Jie already let Yan Xi know that although she was the female lead of <Qing Shi Ming Yue>, she wouldn’t have too many camera exposures.

Gong Yun Ting was making her popular, and the show was also arranged by Gong Yun Ting, so logically it shouldn’t end up this way. Chun Jie saw through the confusion on Yan Xi’s face, so she stretched out her hand to touch her chin, then smiled: “Don’t think too much, this is all arranged by the company, you need to believe in my ability. This will only end up more beneficial than worse.”

“Okay.” Yan Xi nodded. When the car stopped, she had reached the car park in the condominium that was arranged for her by Gong Yun Ting.
