Chapter 387: Cold War Period

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the fight, An Nuo asked her assistant to book a hotel for a month.

It was also because of this that the company’s work environment had been unusually quiet recently. Many artists tried their best to remain quiet and stayed obediently, afraid that they would anger their boss.

“Last quarter’s report has been completed, and these are the summaries of the company’s recent situation. Please take a look.” Jiang Chi was a consistent worker as usual.

But Murong Qiao looked at the densely packed reports and felt that she couldn’t stand it anymore for the first time.

“Forget it.” She let out an irritated breath. “Just organize these into electronics and send them to me. I’m going home.”

After arguing with An Nuo, Murong Qiao felt that the other party probably didn’t want to see her either, so she simply brought her computer home and took her work back with her.

The sun was in the middle, and the blue sky was clear and cloudless. It was a beautiful afternoon, but Murong Qiao’s mood had always been cloudy.

Uncle Yang welcomed Young Miss home as if he was used to it. He didn’t mention that it was only noon and she had already gotten off work.

He helped Murong Qiao push open the door and put the computer aside.

“Young Miss, do you want to eat?”

“I’ve had lunch. I’ll be fine by myself, Uncle Yang,” Murong Qiao said perfunctorily.

Although she said she had eaten, she actually just didn’t have the appetite.

Uncle Yang nodded and stopped talking. He probably understood that the

Young Miss was in a bad mood, so he turned around and disappeared to do his own thing.

Looking at the huge Murong residence, Murong Qiao’s mind went blank.

Big Brother, Murong Chen, worked during the day and would only come back at night. Second Brother, Third Brother, and Xian Yu were all busy with work. Only Fourth Brother was at home.

■But…’

Murong Qiao looked upstairs. Although she couldn’t see the door, she could picture the studio that was always closed in her mind. She didn’t think her Fourth Brother would be a good person to talk to.

She walked out aimlessly and then sat on the swing outside the house near the flower field. Looking at the fiery red and passionate roses, her heart gradually calmed down.

Murong Qiao didn’t think that she had said something wrong, but An Nuo was blinded by the fame and was a little anxious for quick success.

Time passed unknowingly. Murong Qiao sat on the swing in a daze and didn’t look at how long had passed. Her cell phone was also rarely quiet.

Cell phone… At the thought of this, Murong Qiao suddenly stopped thinking.

She took out her phone and scrolled through her chat history. She realized that the latest message Huo Yichen had sent her was still on Good Morning.

[Good morning, Qiaoqiao. I’m preparing to go to the company. I miss you.]

It was a short and ordinary sentence. There were more than ten such sentences on the Internet.

Although Huo Yichen didn’t explicitly state his situation or actions, it could be seen from his short words and obvious reduced frequency of conversation that he must be very busy and even in a difficult situation.

Murong Qiao stared at the last message for a long time. After scrolling a few times, she stopped and closed the phone.

Since Huo Yichen was also working hard, she couldn’t relax.

Murong Qiao had a clear goal in mind. Without much hesitation, she started to deal with the company’s matters again. She was even much more efficient than before.

There seemed to be an invisible wall between An Nuo and Murong Qiao, separating their recent lives. One stayed in a hotel, and the other went home. The house that Ruan Ying had praised as warm suddenly lost two owners.

Even Uncle Yang had recently smiled and said that Young Miss had become like Young Master. She went to work in the day and returned home at night, becoming a little boss in advance.

The artists and employees in the company had been avoiding Murong Qiao recently.

“Am I that scary?” She was helpless.

Jiang Chi actually thought about it seriously. “It’s just that everyone is afraid that you’ll be angry.”

Jiang Chi also knew about An Nuo. From a rational point of view, he was naturally on Murong Qiao’s side, but he was only an employee, so it was naturally inconvenient for him to comment on the two of them.

“… Forget it.” Murong Qiao decided not to care about this.

She picked up a report and glanced at it. It was the company’s new artistes list. Thinking about how she had not been in the company for a long time, she suddenly had an idea. “Are these artistes recruited this afternoon?” Jiang Chi took a look and nodded. “They’re all good seedlings with good potential.”

“We’ll be ready to sign the contract after the final screening this afternoon,” he replied.

The company was thriving like the sun in the sky, so it naturally had to recruit more newcomers. However, the standards couldn’t be lowered. Instead, they rose quite a bit.

“Alright, I’ll go take a look. Go ahead.” Murong Qiao stretched.

She had indeed not been active for a long time. It was a good opportunity to see how the company was doing.

Seeing that it was almost time, Murong Qiao walked out of the office silently. She turned around and walked along the corridor to the interview area.

In the corridor of the interview area, many people were already sitting at the side and preparing. They looked very nervous.

“I’m so nervous… I heard that CG company’s artists are all so good-looking. I’m losing my confidence.”

“What are you afraid of? You’re an actor, not an idol. Your acting skills are much more important than your face.”

“That’s true. I practiced for a long time before I came…

Murong Qiao heard all the commotion around her.

When she came out, she was wearing a mask that covered her face, so no one recognized her.

“Number 37 and 38, come in. 39-40, get ready.” A staff member came out and announced.

Two people stood out from the crowd and walked into the interview room under the gazes of the others.

“Um, do you have anyone to act with?” Suddenly, an unfamiliar girl spoke up beside Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao turned around and saw a quiet girl wearing glasses standing in front of her.

Murong Qiao looked around at her empty surroundings.”… Are you talking to me?”

She pointed at herself and saw the girl nod.

“I came too late. I didn’t find a partner…” The girl scratched her head in embarrassment.

Murong Qiao was about to speak when the girl pulled her to a quiet corner. “Sorry, sorry. I’ll act in this part. Can you help me take a look?” The girl stuffed a script into her hands. “Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Shi Yanxin.”

After Shi Yanxin finished her introduction, she got into character almost in the next second.

This was also the first time Murong Qiao felt so directly that this quiet girl had changed into another person in the blink of an eye. As soon as her glasses came off, she assumed the arrogance and nobility of a rich girl in the script.

“You can’t even do such a small thing. What’s wrong with you?” She read her lines.

Shi Yanxin raised her chin slightly. Her body language was not much, but it made people think of the corresponding characters at first glance. It could even make people ignore factors like clothes and the environment.

The short performance lasted for about 30 seconds. It was just enough for Shi Yanxin to handle.

Murong Qiao watched as she put the glasses on her nose and then changed back to herself. The speed at which she changed stunned Murong Qiao for a moment.

Shi Yanxin’s eyes lit up. “How is it?”

“Very good,” Murong Qiao answered truthfully.

In just 30 seconds, it was obvious that Shi Yanxin was very proficient in switching roles. Although it was possible that she had practiced for very long, Shi Yanxin’s capabilities were clearly more than that.

Murong Qiao looked at Shi Yanxin’s beautiful face under her glasses quietly and suddenly had other thoughts.

“Follow me.” She held Shi Yanxin’s hand and walked towards the other side. Shi Yanxin was caught off guard and pulled away. “Huh?”

The two of them went to an empty practice room at the side. It was also the place for the performance class. There was no one there now..
