Chen Bingbing heard from Wanwan that Shen Xi was also at the audition for Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s TV series. However, she asked around about the actors confirmed for the show, but Shen Xi’s name was not on the list. It was clear that she did not make the cut.

“Bingbing.” Su Ruowan pulled her aside and apologetically smiled at Shen Xi. “Shen Xi, Bingbing’s just plain outspoken. Don’t be mad at her. I’ll apologize on her behalf.”

“Wanwan, why do you bother apologizing to her?” Chen Bingbing scoffed coldly before putting on a smug look. “I know you didn’t get a role. Wanwan here is playing the second supporting actress to Cloud Seven’s TV series.”

Without a word, Shen Xi amusingly looked askance at her. It was surprising that Chen Bingbing had not ditched Su Ruowan and was still her loyal lapdog.

The other students in the vehicle stared at Su Ruowan while a myriad of expressions appeared across their faces. The students of media broadcasting were torn between jealousy and envy.

This was Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s latest TV series they were talking about! Oh, they were turning into green-eyed monsters. It was a surefire shot to fame even if they played as an extra on Cloud Seven’s production.

Many celebrities in showbiz went for the audition, trying every way possible to contact the screenwriter. They were willing to go so low as to refuse a pay just for a part, but only a handful was chosen.

Su Ruowan, on the other hand, was definitely God’s favorite. Many were envious of her good luck. Despite being embroiled in a storm of plagiarism and barefaced scandal, she still managed to find favor with Cloud Seven to take her on board for the latest production.

“Bingbing, cut it out.” Su Ruowan dragged Chen Bingbing away.

Chen Bingbing snorted at Shen Xi before turning cynical. “Some people are tactless even though they know they’re not made for it. I don’t know why these people embarrass themselves.”

Hiding her delight, Su Ruowan apologetically glanced at Shen Xi as if she was stumped for words. She whispered to Chen Bingbing to stop it.

“Su Ruowan.” Shen Xi suddenly cried out and smiled at Su Ruowan. “Congratulations for bagging the second supporting role.”

Flattered, Su Ruowan was nearly moved to tears. She forcefully nodded. “Thank you.”

Shen Xi curled her lips and added. “I heard that Screenwriter Cloud Seven can be very strict. Don’t go crying to your mama if a lot’s asked of you.”

With her heart sinking, Su Ruowan sensed the subtlety in Shen Xi’s words. Still, she remained unfazed and shook her head. “No, I won’t. I will do my best.”

Shen Xi’s voice was chilly. “Talent and effort are two different things. Certain people might work hard but it doesn’t change the fact that they’re a useless piece of sh*t.”

“Shen Xi!” Peeved off, Chen Bingbing furiously pointed at Shen Xi. “What are you trying to say? Who are you to look down on Wanwan when you can’t even make it past the audition?”

Following these words, the students in the bus noticed a change in expression on Shen Xi’s face. If she really went for the audition and failed to secure a part, then she had no right to mock Su Ruowan.

The rigidity of the audition for Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s latest TV series was widely known. There was no question about the acting skills of those who were picked to be in the production.

“Su Ruowan, don’t you know you have to put a leash and a muzzle on the dog when walking it?” Shen Xi scoffed.

Chen Bingbing blew her top. The d*mn b*tch was calling her a dog! She shouted viciously, “Go to hell, Shen Xi!”

“Pull her leash. You don’t want her to go biting around.” Shen Xi did not give a d*mn about Chen Bingbing’s tantrum.

“Bingbing.” Su Ruowan knew Chen Bingbing was no match for Shen Xi and ultimately, Chen Bingbing would be the one on the losing end. Su Ruowan stopped her. “Sorry, let me apologize for my sister. Don’t be angry. It’s all my fault.”

With raging fire in her eyes, Chen Bingbing gave Shen Xi the evil eye before hissing through clenched teeth. “Just you wait, Shen Xi.”

“Sure.” Shen Xi nodded. “I’ll wait for Su Ruowan to be tortured to tears.”

It took a while for Su Ruowan to settle Chen Bingbing down. With a hint of wickedness in her eyes, Su Ruowan cussed Shen Xi for the b*tch that she was. Su Ruowan knew Shen Xi was hurling biting remarks to mask the jealousy that she got the part in Cloud Seven’s production.

Shen Xi also auditioned for the second supporting role, but Screenwriter Cloud Seven had his eye on her instead and not Shen Xi, that b*tch. Su Ruowan must say, she was showered with a sense of superiority that came with victory.

Chen Bingbing glared at Shen Xi, knowing well that she had nothing over Shen Xi. She would be defeated if they got physical and she did not want to stir trouble and be made a fool in front of other students on the first day of school.

Wait and see. Every dog had its day.

Having heard that Su Ruowan acquired a role in Cloud Seven’s series, a few girls of the school of broadcasting and hosting, regardless of whether they knew Su Ruowan or not, gathered round to flatter and curry Su Ruowan’s favor.

Many big-shot actors, including Gong Zhi the film star, attended the audition but fell short for the roles. It was amazing that Su Ruowan was chosen. It brought the green-eyed monsters in them out.

Needless to say, Su Ruowan was going to make it big to play a supporting role. The girls intended to make nice with Su Ruowan before she found stardom so she could help them out when they were ready to step foot into showbiz.

On the bus, the students were chattering about the earlier incident. No. 4 High School was the best school in the country with an off-the-charts percentage of its students advancing to college. Twenty percent of the students on the bus were from No. 4 High School and soon, the relationship between Su Ruowan and Shen Xi drew a lot of attention.

While many were surprised and envious of Su Ruowan’s newly acquired role, they were discussing Shen Xi’s audition bust in tones reflecting their contempt and disdain. Shen Xi must not have done well since she did not make the cut.

Having the closest relationship with Shen Xi, Ruan Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xuanxuan simply adored her because of Fu Qingye. Nevertheless, they were sensible enough not to direct the question to Shen Xi. They exchanged glances.

Jiang Xuanxuan stood up. “Shut up. What does it have to do with you if she failed the audition? I don’t think you have any excuse to look down on her since you can’t even get an audition.”

“That’s right. Xixi was invited for an audition. What about you? Were you lucky enough to have the opportunity?” Ruan Xiaoxiao set the record straight.

What was there to talk about when many notable actors, Gong Zhi included, were not picked for Screenwriter Cloud Seven’s TV show?

Those sharing dirt about Shen Xi gave Jiang Xuanxuan and Ruan Xiaoxiao a spiteful look. They were annoyed by these nosey b*tches for talking to them in such a way.

However, they were all educated college students at the end of the day. Kicking up a fuss on the first day of school would only invite punishment.. Hence, they shut their trap and kept their resentment to themselves.
