Chapter 1214 - Outstanding Student in the Training Camp

Yu Fei was relieved when she heard that she was still a trainee. “I heard that that’s the tradition and benefit of being in Imperial’s training camp.” She explained to Xia Yingluo. “Every movie of Imperial’s would leave two places for the training camp’s students in the open audition. Us outside actors really envy that.”

This was nothing more than polite words. How could trainees who had yet to debut compete with official actors? Over the years, there was only a small probability of stealing a role from an official actor, and such a probability could be ignored.

“You’re still young, so you’ll have more opportunities in the future.” Yu Fei directly regarded Xia Yingluo as having failed the audition and reassured her pretentiously. “All those who can be recommended by the training camp are top students. You are still very good.”

“Yes, yes.” Xia Yingluo also smiled fakely. “I’m only doing this as a formality. You can prepare, I’m going to play games.”

Then, she took out her phone again.

She played for a while and heard Yu Fei ask, “Who are those over there? They seem to be talking about the Imperial Training Camp? Could they be your classmates? But each audition only has two students from the training camp, why are there so many?”

Xia Yingluo glanced up.

When the Dean had told her to come, he hadn’t mentioned that other trainees were coming as well, so she was a little curious too. But who knew that who she saw was her enemy instead—Jiang Bilian.

Jiang Bilian was very well-dressed today. She had taken good care of everything from hairstyle to clothing. She paired a tight low-waisted hot pants with a navel top and looked somewhat charismatic and charming. It was usually hard to see her wearing such a style, and it was probably to fit into the killer theme. Beside her, Zhu Zhu and Zheng Qiang stood like her manager and assistant, looking very imposing.

Jiang Bilian also saw Xia Yingluo. She came over and greeted condescendingly. “What a coincidence.”

Xia Yingluo was too lazy to care for her. She continued playing her game.

Jiang Bilian had been very unhappy with her ever since suffering losses under her hand, so she was very annoyed with her. She said loudly, “I was wondering who was so capable to have removed Zhu Zhu’s name form the audition. It turns out to be you. Well, I’m not surprised, since you have people to support you outside. Our Zhu Zhu hasn’t even had a boyfriend yet, so she obviously can’t compete with you.”

The implication of these remarks was obvious. Several people nearby were already glancing over, looking strangely at Xia Yingluo. Unexpectedly, this simply-dressed girl turned out to be a gold digger? Was it real or fake? At that moment, everyone looked at her with a little contempt and interest.

Jiang Bilian was very satisfied with the effect of her remarks. For almost a year in the training camp, she had been tarnishing Xia Yingluo’s reputation by silently badmouthing her. Otherwise, since her beauty was beneath hers and her singing and dancing skills were also not as good as hers, how could she have become the most sought-after girl in the training camp?

In the past, Xia Yingluo didn’t care about her because she didn’t want those boys to bother her. Besides, she had been in love with Zhao Yixuan and was content and tolerant. But now it was different. Ever since Zhao Yixuan had broken up with her in order to marry a rich lady, and she had been entangled with the neurotic Wei Lingnan, her temper had become very irritable.

She looked up at Jiang Bilian and refused to back down. “Remove? Which gossip did you hear this rumor from? It was the Dean who came to ask me directly, and he didn’t tell me anything about Zhu Zhu. I was thinking it was strange, I got first place during the last monthly exam and you’re far behind me in second place. In this one year, besides the one time I was sick and got second place, I’ve gotten first every other time. If I’m not qualified to be recommended based on my strength, who else is eligible? Could it be Zhu Zhu? Jiang Bilian, are you helping her or insulting her?”

Jiang Bilian was stunned. She didn’t expect that she could draw so many words from Xia Yingluo with her one sentence. Her expression immediately turned bad.

Seeing this, Zhang Qiang quickly stood up for her. He frowned. “Xia Yingluo, why are you so aggressive? There isn’t a girl’s gentle restraint in you.”

Xia Yingluo sneered. “I’m discussing the problem with Jiang Bilian. Why is it called aggressive? I just didn’t understand why a trainee with the highest total score had to go through the back door to get an audition—who would actually believe such a rumor?

Several actors on the side couldn’t help laughing, praising the little girl for her sharp mouth.

Originally, they didn’t know that Xia Yingluo had such strength. Now that they knew that she was the first in Imperial’s training camp, they couldn’t help but look at her differently—Imperial training camp was the best in the industry and cultivated the best actors. Getting first in the training camp meant she was the chief, and none of them had not become popular after debuting. She was also sure to become a big thing in time.

Apart from their admiration, they were a little bit frightened of Xia Yingluo. She could be their rival in this audition.

Zhang Qiang still unknowingly said, “What are you proud of, who doesn’t know that the best girl in our training camp is Bilian. You just had good luck. If you don’t believe it, wait and see, this time you will fail the audition and they definitely won’t choose you.”

Xia Yingluo was very unhappy. Why was it that her getting first place was due to good luck?

“I might not be selected, but Jiang Bilian will definitely not be selected.” She smiled, exposing her small white teeth. She said meanly, “Because she’s not only weak, she’s also unlucky.”

“How could you curse people like this? We still belong to the same training camp.” Jiang Bilian couldn’t help but say.

“I’m sorry, I’m a candid person,” Xia Yingluo said indifferently. Anyway, Jiang Bilian had already slandered her to being a gold digger in public, so what if she stabbed her slightly with her words?

“Bilian, don’t argue with her,” Zhu Zhu said. “Let her be proud for a while. When the audition results are out, she will cry.” Although Xia Yingluo had justified that she didn’t snatch her name, Zhu Zhu still believed that her place had been snatched by Xia Yingluo. During this audition, Jiang Bilian had promised Zhu Zhu that she would fight for it for her, and the Dean had also agreed to consider it, but in the end, the place was given to Xia Yingluo.

How could Zhu Zhu not be resentful?

“Our sister Bilian is the best,” Zhu Zhu said loudly to Xia Yingluo. “She will definitely perform better than you this time.”

The audition was behind doors and only the directors could see it, the other candidates wouldn’t be able to see it, so who would be able to determine who was best when the audition was over? Unless one of them got the role, then it was indisputable. But could Xia Yingluo get the role?
