‘Sigh, Shen Jinghe, you have to be professional. Don't brush me off just because I'm your adopted sister.’
Shen Jinghe was looking at the profiles of several interviewees when he suddenly looked up.
His movement was a bit exaggerated, to the point that the director sitting next to him also looked at him.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Jinghe looked at the director in confusion, "Didn't you hear?"
"Hear what? Their self-introductions?"
Due to this small episode, the self-introductions of the auditioning actors paused.
Wen Yan was also a bit puzzled.
‘What's going on? What is Shen Jinghe doing? Did he just look at me? I haven't even started my self-introduction yet. Is he planning to eliminate me right from the start?’
"What about this time?" Shen Jinghe glanced at Wen Yan's closed lips from the corner of his eye and asked the director, "Did you hear it this time?"
The director shook his head in confusion, "No. Jinghe, if you're tired, you can go rest."
"No, I'm not tired! Let's continue."
This time, Shen Jinghe stared directly at Wen Yan's face.
After locking eyes with him for 0.01 seconds, Wen Yan immediately looked away, pretending not to know him at all.
‘What is Shen Jinghe doing? Is something wrong with his mental state? He asked if people heard something for no reason, and now he's staring at me. It's kind of creepy.’
Shen Jinghe: ........ Who is scarier in the end??? How dare she say he has a problem with his mental state!
His mental state is perfectly fine!
After finishing a role as a deranged serial killer last month, he went for psychological counseling. He was perfectly healthy.
Shen Jinghe pinched his brow and told himself to focus on the task at hand and not get distracted.
It was soon Wen Yan's turn for self-introduction, she was the last one. As soon as she finished speaking, the director called out two names.
"These two can leave, the others stay."
Although the director didn't say why, Wen Yan also knew.

The two actresses just now had something in common - they both had plastic surgery. The expressions on their faces didn't look natural when they spoke.
Just when Wen Yan thought they were going to proceed to the next test, Shen Jinghe suddenly spoke up.
"Wen Yan. I think she can leave too."
"Why?" Wen Yan blurted out.
The director was also puzzled, "What's the reason?"
"Because Miss Wen here looks down on people in our profession. She despises acting. Why did she bother to come here if she has such disdain for it?"
Wen Yan couldn't say anything.
The director looked at Shen Jinghe, then at Wen Yan, "Do you two know each other?"
"No!" Wen Yan answered quickly.
Even if Shen Jinghe said they knew each other, he wouldn't give her any special treatment, so why bother to lie?
"Professor Shen, are you mistaking me for someone else? Although you are famous in the entertainment industry and I do appreciate your work, today is definitely the first time we've met! How could you say that?"
Ahh, this Shen Jinghe is killing me! In this situation, I don't even have a chance to apologize. May the heavens and Taishang Laojun quickly come to save me!
Shen Jinghe raised an eyebrow, realizing his mistake too late? It's too late.
But her acting skills are really good. Even though she is panicking inside, her face remains calm and composed!
Oh, Taishang Laojun, huh?
Shen Jinghe lightly smirked and said, "You said you cherished my works, so name them all, not missing a single one."
Wen Yan thought, ‘He seems to be serious, what should I do?!’
What else can she do? He definitely doesn't know that she actually remembers all of his works, haha!
"Alright, then let me list them out. If I make a mistake, please guide me, Professor Shen."
Wen Yan started with the toothpaste advertisement Shen Jinghe filmed when he first debuted and went on to the crime-themed movie he recently finished filming.
She listed them all flawlessly, and as she listened, Shen Jinghe's face darkened.
The director had a feeling that this actress must have great skills in delivering lines.
He smiled and said to Shen Jinghe, "You don't even recognize her, how do you know she looks down on our profession? I think she's actually your fan. She remembers every single one of your works since your debut. You don't even know who she is yet you have such a grudge against her."
Shen Jinghe:... ‘Who said I don't recognize her?’
However, Wen Yan had already denied it, so Shen Jinghe naturally wouldn't rush to claim her as his sister.
He could only respond indifferently, "She's just a stranger. I didn't sleep well last night, so I made a mistake."
The director didn't take this little incident too seriously and nodded, "Alright, let's continue then."
Next, the director tested their lines and performances.
Two of them were eliminated during the line test, so their group was left with only four people.
Finally, the director gave them a performance topic. ‘A rural girl's first time entering a modern city.’

Each of the four freely showcased their performance, but some had awkward expressions and stiff performances. Only Wen Yan performed the best, even Shen Jinghe couldn't find any faults in her!
The director was efficient in his actions. After the four finished their performances, he directly called out three names.
"You have been eliminated. You can go and try in other crews. Wen Yan, wait for further notice."
Upon hearing this result, Wen Yan was very happy. "Thank you, director, thank you, judges!"
However, she didn't become arrogant. After all, this was only the initial audition, and the director didn't give her a definite answer.
Moreover, there was still Shen Jinghe, the time bomb. If he bad-mouthed her in front of the director, then she would be done for.
[Shen Jinghe, you are the most handsome, the world's number one handsome. I beg you, please don't play tricks on me! I promise I will apologize to you given the chance!]
Shen Jinghe, sitting in the judge's seat, silently rolled his eyes:...
Of course, he knew he was handsome, but claiming to be the world's number one handsome is too exaggerated. This woman says one thing and thinks another, she's really sick.
After the interview, Wen Yan didn't leave.
She felt that it was better to reconcile with Shen Jinghe as soon as possible.
So she stayed at the scene and waited.
As a result, she waited from 2:41 pm until 8 pm, and everyone at the scene had already left.
The first to come out were two judges, followed by the director and his assistant.
From start to finish, Wen Yan didn't see Shen Jinghe's figure.
This made Wen Yan feel strange.
She couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Shen Jinghe left early while she went out to buy dinner?
But upon careful recollection, it shouldn't be the case because after buying dinner, Wen Yan overheard other girls discussing Shen Jinghe's outfit today.
Plus, the room's light seemed to be still on, so Shen Jinghe should still be inside.
Wen Yan waited outside for a while, but no one went in to look for Shen Jinghe. So she quickly slipped over to the door of his room.
The room's door wasn't closed tightly, leaving a small gap.
Through this gap, Wen Yan saw Shen Jinghe leaning over the table, even his hat had fallen to the ground.
"Oh my god!" Seeing this scene, a thought suddenly crossed Wen Yan's mind, "Is he unconscious?"
