You're My Only Star Novel

Chapter 32 - First Day At Work


On Monday evening, Song Xing Xing showed up at the new studio where she will start to work. It was her first day at work. The shooting was scheduled in the morning and as part of the post-production team, Song Xing Xing only had to show up after the recording had ended.

When she arrived, Song Xing Xing entered the room with Liu Yu Sheng and a few others. The last time, the post-production crew had met during the ice-breaking session and they no longer need to introduce themselves to each other.

Everyone walked into the room and was excited upon seeing the new computers on their desk. Song Xing Xing and Liu Yu Sheng picked the desk next to each other before they started to adore the new computer.

At this time, a production crew walked into the room and placed a few cards on the table.

Song Xing Xing had previously worked with this person before and could be considered close. She saw a face that she recognized and exchanged their greetings.

“Xie Xun… is that all of them?” Song Xing Xing looked at the cards on the table and sighed. There were a total of four cards and it will take them a while to transfer them.

The man scratched his neck and smiled. “No. There are still two more cards. This is the first episode and the producer decided to add in a little interview section with actress Mu Xiao Xiao and singer Huo Yun Chen.”

Song Xing Xing heard the name and suddenly felt a little strange. The person who played games with her was that famous singer and she felt that it was hard to believe.

“Then, I should transfer the file on these cards first. Xie Xun, thank you.”

The man gave her a quick nod before he turned around and left.

Song Xing Xing took the cards and divide them with the others. She slid the card into the card reader and saw that she needed to wait for almost an hour until the first file will be transferred.

Just imagining the large file and the lengthy video made her wanted to cry. She will need to watch the footage first before deciding which clip should be added to the episode.

“Xing Xing,” Liu Yu Sheng spun in her swiveling chair to face her friend. “You played that MMORPG right? The one that Huo Yun Chen has become the spokesperson for.”

“Mhm…”

Liu Yu Sheng pushed her chair closer to her friend and took out her phone. “You should be good at this game, right? Quickly, teach me how to play.”

Song Xing Xing looked at her friend’s eager expression and laughed. “You registered an account?”

“Of course. My idol, Huo Yun Chen is the spokesperson. How can I not support him?” Liu Yu Sheng said. “I made an account last night, but I was still a little too late. That ID name, ‘Huo Yun Chen’s wife’ and ‘Huo Yun Chen’s biggest fan’ are already picked.”

The corner of her lips twitched. It was at this time that Song Xing Xing seemed to realize that a lot of newbies players had Huo Yun Chen’s name as their username.

“Last night, I wandered around in the game and was killed upon meeting a boss.”

Song Xing Xing peeked at her friend’s phone and saw that Liu Yu Sheng had successfully leveled up to level10 in just one night. However, her character was now in a town where high-level monsters would wander around. Unless she can level up to level100, Liu Yu Sheng should not be where she was.

“What are you doing in this place?”

“Last night, someone mentioned that Huo Yun Chen was seen around this town. I merely followed the others to get here,” Liu Yu Sheng explained. “Initially, it was easy to avoid those high-level monsters. But once I arrived at this town, the monsters kept chasing me. When my character died, I was transported back to this town.”

The corner of her lips twitched. Song Xing Xing did not doubt that her friend had set her resurrection point at this high-level town.

“Unless if you can level up quickly, you should not be here.”

Liu Yu Sheng lowered her head. “I know. But I cannot leave this town. Once I stepped out of this town, that zombie kept on chasing me. I don’t even have the chance to run.”

“Let me help you to get out of this place.” Song Xing Xing took out her phone and hesitated. After a while, she decided to login into her secondary account. It would be troublesome if her friend knew that ‘General Huo’ and ‘Not Your Little Star’ are in the same guild. Song Xing Xing did not want to feel awkward when her friend would request to join their guild. Last night, their leader, Light Rain had already complained about Huo Yun Chen’s fans spamming their guild mail with their application.

Liu Yu Sheng’s eyes glittered with admiration. She quickly added Song Xing Xing as her friend and was finally able to leave the high-level town.

“Xing Xing, you’re so nice.” Liu Yu Sheng hugged her arms. “Next time, you have to help me to defeat some high-ranked boss.”

“Just made an appointment first. I’ll help you when I’m free.”

Liu Yu Sheng turned her attention back at her phone and started to kill a few low-ranked monsters. After killing around five of them, Liu Yu Sheng let out a sigh when her character did not rise in level. “Xing Xing, tell me… how can I level up fast? I wanted to meet with my idol fast.”

“It took me two years to train and reach level200. What do you think?”

“Two years?” Liu Yu Sheng looked at her with her eyes wide. Her expression turned into disappointment. “Is there any other way?”

“Of course.” Song Xing Xing watched her friend’s expression turned bright and spoke. “You just have to spend a lot of money.”

Once Liu Yu Sheng heard the words, she immediately gave up. It’s better to train hard than to spend a lot of money on a game.

As the two friends were discussing the game, they heard a commotion outside the door.

Song Xing Xing raised her head when she heard the familiar voices and was surprised to see that her boss, Lu Xun, and her gamer friend, Huo Yun Chen entered the post-production room together.
