Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Upon hearing what the other actress said, Ran Xueyi's gaze turned a little bit colder before the calmness inside it returned as if nothing happened.

If the woman named Qin Ling was really one of the directors' niece then, there would be no chance for them to compete for the second female lead role.

In the world of the entertainment industry, the numbers of artists that had a relative working as a director, producer, and sponsors were too many to count. It was just that the media was too afraid of letting this gossip out in the public for fear that these big shots would go after them.

However, that didn't mean that no one knew who had a backer, a sugar daddy, and a sugar mommy. The people who knew who had these people behind these artists had to glue their lips to a close so that they wouldn't gossip too much about it.

Ran Xueyi glanced at the closed door and sighed.

"That's too bad… What should we do? I still have a pictorial later. I'm just wasting time by sitting here." Another complained.

All the others who gathered around nodded their heads.

When they noticed that Ran Xueyi was the only one who didn't nod and had gone silent this time, one of them couldn't help but speak to her.

"What about you? Are you going back to your agency?"

Ran Xueyi shook her head and smiled at her. She replied, "No… I'm going to stay."

The one who spoke to her previously raised her eyebrows in surprise and said, "But you're just going to waste your time. The directors won't change their minds."

Ran Xueyi looked down. In their perspective, Ran Xueyi was disappointed and was feeling sad about having failed the audition without even entering the audition room.

They didn't know why it was, but the moment they saw her look down, their hearts were gripped by guilt and soon, the ladies who gathered around her tried to speak comforting words to her.

"It's alright! If you want to stay then, stay! Don't listen to us busybodies."

"That's right. Our words don't mean anything. I think you're prettier than Qin Ling."

"Yeah, you look much better than her if you play as the second female lead!"

"Good luck!"

Ran Xueyi: "Thank you everyone."

The instant that Ran Xueyi lifted her head, the surrounding turned for a few seconds. They were blinded by the sweet smile on her lips.

It was true that there are already too many beautiful and pretty actresses in the acting industry. One could overwhelm the other, while some could possess a different aura.

However, what they saw didn't just only shock them. Yes, the lady before them was extremely beautiful with her pale skin, white teeth, long hair and bright eyes. However, what really shocked them was the fact that despite the gloominess that had wrapped the whole waiting room when the selection started, the lady before them still had her brilliance and youthful smile as though spring had come and sprouts started to grow visibly everywhere and flowers bloomed around her.

A sudden sense of maternal instinct blossomed inside of them. The girls found themselves wanting to take care of Ran Xueyi and protect that youthful and untainted smile on her lips.

Just when they were about to transform into mother hens, the door to the audition room was pulled open.

Qin Lin, whom they had been gossiping about earlier, came out of the door. Her smile had risen a higher notch. As expected, she probably got the role already.

The ladies surrounding Ran Xueyi frowned in distaste and irritation when they saw the smug look in Qin Ling's gaze. They shot her with a murderous glare and when Qin Lin passed by, she was almost scared away by them.

Before coming out of the room, Qin Ling was expecting that if she displayed a bright smile after she got a confirmation from her uncle that she had secured the role for herself, the people inside the waiting room would watch her in envy.

But who knew that when she went out, there was no envy filling their eyes; instead it was filled with disgust and anger.

What was happening?

Why was it different from what she envisioned?

"What are you looking at? Hmph! Bunch of losers!" Qin Ling harrumphed and went back to get her material which she never used from her seat before leaving the waiting room.

After what had happened inside the waiting room, the atmosphere was a bit thick and stagnant. The other artists who came to audition left and some stayed to take the other roles in the movie.

Ran Xueyi thanked the other girls who encouraged her and sat back down on her chair.

"Number 17. Please come inside. The directors are ready!" The staff called out.

Ran Xueyi jolted for a tiny bit as she heard her number being called out.

"Yes, I'm coming!" She answered back and walked to the entrance of the audition room.

...

Outside the waiting room.

The ladies who got a bit closer after acting like a support group of Ran Xueyi finally came back to their senses when one of them exclaimed out of nowhere.

"Ah! I remember now where I saw her!" The one who exclaimed grabbed her friend by the arm. "I saw her face last night when I was scrolling down Weibo!"

Her friend frowned and asked: "Weibo? She's not a new actress?"

The first one shrugged and said, "I'm not sure... Let me check."

"You don't need to check... You must have seen it incorrectly," said the friend.

However, the woman didn't pause her action as she scrolled down through Weibo. If she remembered correctly, one of her avid fan shared a post where the photo of the beautiful lady was in.

"Aha!"

After a few seconds, the woman finally found what she had been looking for. However, when she saw the status that her avid fan posted, the woman was left in a trance.

Her friend noticed her strange behavior and asked, "What's wrong? She's not a new actress?"

The woman gaped, "Are you kidding me? New actress? What BS! She's Ran Xueyi!"
