Upon seeing the name, Ning Ning felt like she had made an extremely big mistake.
“It’s over…” She murmured quietly, “My audition video…”
This Pei Xuan, was it the Pei Xuan she knew?
If that was the case, wouldn’t that mean that he knew Lian Lian? And based on the script, it looked like the two of them had a pretty good relationship?
Then would she have shared the video with him?
Ning Ning frantically called Lian Lian and asked, “The name of the male lead is Pei Xuan?”
“What about it?” Lian Lian asked.
Ning Ning did not directly ask about her relationship with Pei Xuan, she beat about the bush instead. “This name seems to be the same as the male lead in Yan Qing’s film…”
“So what?” Lian Lian said, “I will get someone to tell her to change the name.”
Ning Ning, “…”
She really was an unreasonable young lady.
“I just read the script.” Ning Ning said, “I have some doubts about Pei Xuan’s place in it. President…”
“Stop. Never call me President Lian, Madam Lian or Sister Lian.” Lian Lian suddenly interrupted her, “If you must, call me cutie.“
“Cu, cutie…” What kind of weird way of addressing a person is that? Ning Ning’s mouth twitched.
“Hmmm.” Lian Lian answered proudly, “Speak.”
“The character Pei Xuan, he is your benefactor right?” Ning Ning said without a change in tone, “It was him who found you and brought you back to the Lian family, mediated your relationship to allow the Lian family to accept you…You said that this story is adapted from a true story, what happened to him in the end? Are you still in contact with him?”
“Why are you asking about that?” Lian Lian said with caution.
“I’m just a little curious.” Ning Ning laughed as she flipped the script, intentionally making the sounds of paper rustling. “From the story and character design, he is an overbearing CEO type of male lead, why did the two of you not end up together?”
“..I myself don’t know why the two of us did not end up together.” Ning Ning seemed to have pointed out something that was bothering her, Lian Lian sighed softly.
Lian Lian was once a beauty that made millions swoon and had countless men under her thumb, but she was still single till this day for reasons unknown, no one knew who she truly cared about.
Ning Ning felt nervous asking this, she was afraid that Lian Lian would answer with, “I loved him so much, how could he bear to leave me?”
Then she would be another Yun Lin, turning into a dangerous person because she was in love with a dangerous man. It was especially dangerous for Ning Ning as she had to enter Life Theater from time to time.
“Maybe it was because he was not handsome enough?” Lian Lian answered, “Or maybe because he was too old, that was why he felt ashamed in front of me? So he chose to give up and let me have the freedom to choose someone younger and more handsome?”
Ning Ning, “…”
“After all, I am a little fuzzy regarding the memories associated with him.” Lian Lian answered lazily, “On the contrary, my grandfather, siblings and servants in my house remember him well. My grandfather is getting on in his years, I have a poor relationship with my siblings, so Pei Xuan was written according to what my servants remember. They had a good impression of Pei Xuan, so he will be portrayed as a good person in the script, rich and gentlemanly, with quite good looks as well.”
The way she said it would sound ungrateful to anyone, because she would not have had the riches she did today if not for Pei Xuan. She could have led the life of her childhood buddy Mu Er—dropping out of highschool, working at the family restaurant, marrying the boss of a video store, getting married and giving birth at a young age, getting wrinkles from the stress of dealing with her husband and their mischievous son, getting fat when she reached midlife, experiencing menopause early.
But Ning Ning knew that there was another possibility.
Lian Lian had been replaced by a customer of Life Theater the day she was found by Pei Xuan, causing her to have vague memories—like You Ling from , being unable to remember the specifics of what had happened.
Ning Ning could not help but breathe out deeply. If that was the case, things would be a lot easier to handle, at least she did not have to deal with Pei Xuan immediately.
The two of them spoke for a little longer. At around ten at night, Lian Lian said, “I need my beauty sleep.” Then immediately hung up.
“She really is a carefree woman.” Ning Ning muttered then slowly turned around and looked at the purse beside her.
She opened the purse and slowly took out a ticket.
Life Theater, ordinary ticket.
It was the one she obtained in
