Ning Qing was delighted, “Really? Where are they casting? I’ll rush over right now.”

…

Ning Qing arrived at the address that Xiao Zhou provided and she was already waiting by the entrance.

“Ning Qing, you came. Although you didn’t participate in the preliminary for casting, I am quite close to the producer and I already took care of that for you. Let’s go into the lobby. If you acce the casting, the one million dollar cash reward would be yours.”

Ning Qing was grateful, “Xiao Zhou, thank you.”

Xiao Zhou held Ning Qing’s hand and brought her to the lobby, “No need to thank me. You must win this casting and buy me a good meal.”

Ning Qing wouldn’t refuse. She remembered how well Xiao Zhou treated her and she would definitely repay this kindness when she had a chance to.

When they walked into the lobby, they saw many girls waiting. The girls were young and beautiful, and all of them were dressed up like a butterfly.

Ning Qing saw that there were many clothes and props prepared in the lobby. During casting, most of the time they would give free rein for one to give full display of their talent. For instance, there was a door and you must act if you were opening the door or something of that nature.

However, the casting took place with realistic props and set-pieces. They could tell that the Pink Lady was a heavily funded production. Whoever that was chosen to be the female lead role would definitely benefit financially as well as in their reputation.

Then, they heard flirtatious greeting voices, “CEO Xu…”

There were a bunch of crews gathered by the entrance and the girls in the lobby turned around to look at the entrance. As anticipated, Ning Qing saw Xu Junxi in a black coat slowly walk in.

Ning Qing didn’t find it strange. Emperor Entertainment Group was the head of the entertainment circle for a long while. A few years back, Xu Junxi took over the management of Emperor Entertainment Group from his father. She had to admit that he had good foresight and invested very well. He paved a great route tailored to the artists whom he signed a contract with. The artists’ performances were great and he naturally became the entertainment tycoon that people revered.

He lived up to his name “CEO Xu”.

When Ning Qing saw that Xu Junxi was holding Ning Yao by his side, she was calm. Ning Yao was a born actress. She returned to the country and she would definitely join the entertainment circle while Xu Junxi would be her best backer to rely on.

Ning Yao wore a yellow knitted top paired with a polka dot skirt, showing off her smooth fair legs. Her facial complexion was rosy, her faint smile highlighted by pink lipstick. She looked rather innocent and sweet.

Ning Qing didn’t have to think and she knew that Ning Yao and Xu Jinxi had been spending the past few days together and she was taken care of.

Ning Qing was calm but she heard the girl by her side sighed in disappointment. Yeah, for the past three years, her once warm boy became everyone’s dream lover.

“Ning Qing…” Xiao Zhou tugged Ning Qing’s sleeve.

Ning Qing came back to reality and her gaze met Xiao Zhou’s worrisome eyes. She blinked naughtily and meant to tell Xiao Zhou that she’s okay.

“CEO Xu, you’re finally here. Everyone’s waiting for you. I wonder who this girl is?” Someone asked.

Xu Junxi walked in and noticed Ning Qing. She was wearing a white shirt and jeans with a green long coat over it. It wasn’t expensive material but she could sure put together an outfit. In her poised fashion, there was a hint of gentle and straightforward elegance. She was extremely eye-catching among the butterflies.

It seemed that she was able to give out a unique charm with whatever she wears. Let alone her face that makes everyone turn around to look.

He recalled Kong Yang who was outside Ning’s place. He smirked, no matter what she wears, she’s naked in every other man’s eyes.

Xu Junxi stood straight and smiled. He intentionally said it loud for someone else to hear him, “Ning Yao, my girlfriend.”
