Chapter 72: No Blood Relation


"What's the matter, new job?" 


Wang Che smiled brightly, "Sort of, but it's not a sure thing. My agent brought several artists, one of them is my senior sister who has been filming at the movie studio recently. You know the cast of 'Transformation of the Dragon,' right?" 


Wen Yan nodded, "I saw it online. I heard that the original novel has a high popularity and the lead actors and actresses are very popular. Just by looking at their character posters, everyone thinks that this drama will be a hit."


"That's right, Wang Che. I heard that every character with significant role in the original novel is outstanding. If you can join the cast, you might be able to benefit from it and also improve your acting skills."


Wang Che sighed, "That's one way to put it, but I'm not confident this time. Last time I was chosen for 'Voiceless' because you brought out my potential during our scenes together. But this time, I'm not so sure. How about you come with me later? My agent scheduled a meeting for me in half an hour. Didn't you say you have nothing to do?"


"But what would I do?" 


"You'll have inside information," Wang Che lowered his voice, "The original actor intended for the role I'm trying for got caught for tax evasion. He even brought a few other actors with him when he joined the cast, and apparently, all of them have some problems."


"You know, if this matter gets blown out of proportion, the whole drama might be in jeopardy. The production team wouldn't dare to take risks by using them, so they're considering replacing all of them. If you come with me, maybe you'll have a chance to get a role too? Just give it a try, who knows?"


Wen Yan was convinced, "Okay, I'll try my luck then."


The two arrived at the set of "Transformation of the Dragon" ten minutes early.


Just as Wang Che was about to introduce Wen Yan to his agent, Huajie, she interrupted him.


"I know, Wen yan, I've known you from the internet for a long time. Your name is quite famous."


Wen Yan felt a bit embarrassed, "Hello, Huajie. I apologize for the things that happened online before."


Huajie smiled, "That's another way to become famous. By the way, I heard that you haven't signed with any agency yet. You and Wang Che are old friends, so how about considering our company?"


Besides Shen Jinghe's invitation last time, this was the first olive branch Wen Yan received from the entertainment industry.


However, she decided to wait for that person to show up!


So she politely declined Huajie's offer.


Although being rejected by a rookie actor who didn't even have any popularity, Huajie didn't get angry.


Instead, she introduced Wen Yan to the assistant director in charge of casting, saying that Wen Yan could try the role of the antagonist, Baiyueguang, the Demon Lord.


The assistant director was immediately attracted by Wen Yan's appearance and agreed to let her give it a try.


And in this trial, Wen Yan was immediately chosen.


However, her role as Baiyueguang didn't have many scenes, so they could finish shooting them all in one day.


Therefore, she quickly put on the makeup for Baiyueguang.


With the help of costumes and makeup, she didn't need to say anything, just standing there in the scene, her whole person exuded a cool and ethereal temperament.


Moreover, her expressions and actions were on point, almost perfect.


When she finished filming and looked at the time, it was already 3:40 in the afternoon!


And she had received four missed calls from Shen Jinghe on her phone!


As the saying goes, "Everything happens in threes." Shen Jinghe had called her four times in a row. Given his stingy and proud personality, he was probably rolling his eyes in frustration during the waiting time.


Thinking of this, Wen Yan quickly found a quiet place and called him back.


"Hello, Teacher Shen, are you looking for me?"


"Hello, ghost. Where have you been? Playing happily with your little boyfriend, huh?"


"What little boyfriend? You're not talking about Wang Che, are you? Please, our relationship is very pure revolutionary friendship, okay? Don't you have any opposite-sex friends in the entertainment industry?"


Shen Jinghe coldly chuckled and spoke confidently, "No, I don't. Is that not allowed? Have you checked your phone yet?"


"Not yet. As soon as I finished my work, I took out my phone and saw your missed calls. Did you get any news from Big Brother? Don't hang up, I'll check my WeChat first."


"Forget it, just come find me directly. I'll share my location with you. We can talk in the car."


After saying that, Shen Jinghe hung up the phone.


Wen Yan quickly opened WeChat and checked the messages in the '123' group.


In the group, Shen Jingxiu had posted a photo.


It was the result of a paternity test.


The result was: No blood relation!


When she saw these words, Wen Yan's brain buzzed.


After a moment, she opened the location shared by Shen Jinghe and found Shen Jinghe and his car along the route on the map.


Carefully getting on the car, Wen Yan said, "I hope no one knows that this is your car. There are many people here, and if someone with ill intentions sees it, rumors will spread."


At this time, Shen Jinghe was already fully armed with a hat, mask, and sunglasses.


"No, the driver has already taken my RV and left. This is the studio's car. Quickly check the messages in the group."


"I've already checked... My guess has been confirmed. She really isn't Shen's biological daughter. Big brother asked in the group if we're coming home tonight, why didn't you respond?"


"...What do you think I called you for?"


"........"


[This is a bit too tsundere.]


Shen Jinghe frowned. Setting aside the issue of being tsundere and proud, he hadn't initiated a conversation with him in over ten years. How could he bring this up now?


Wen Yan said, "Okay, then I'll reply in the group. It's past four o'clock now, and I estimate there will be traffic on the road. It might take us until six or seven o'clock to get home, and by then, big brother might already be home."


"Okay." Shen Jinghe nodded and couldn't help but glance at Wen Yan again. "Where did you go that you ended up looking like this?"


Wen Yan had hurriedly left earlier, taking off her clothes and wig and returning them to the crew, but she hadn't had time to remove her makeup.


"Oh, because Wang Che introduced me to a role, so I tried it out. I didn't expect it to pass, but my scenes have already been shot and wrapped up."


"You had such few scenes?" How could he introduce her like that, heh.


"Yes, they were indeed few. After all, it was just a small role."


After finishing this conversation, both of them were lost in their own thoughts and remained silent for a while.


Because of the heavy traffic on the way back to the city, when they arrived home, Shen Jingxiu had already returned, but he seemed to have just arrived as well.


On the other hand, Shen Zhirou hadn't come back yet. Su Yang said she was still at the hospital accompanying her adoptive mother.


When Su Yang mentioned this, she felt sorry for the fake Shen Zhirou.


"Zhirou has worked hard as well these days, waking up early and staying up late to accompany her adoptive mother."


Hearing this, Wen Yan didn't know how to respond.


"Mom, I'll go to my room and remove the makeup from my face first."


Shen Jinghe said, "I'll go upstairs and change clothes."


Shen Jingxiu said, "I'll go upstairs and put the laptop bag away."


Two minutes later.


Wen Yan hadn't removed her makeup, Shen Jinghe hadn't changed his clothes, and the three of them gathered again in Shen Jingxiu's study.


Shen Jingxiu had a serious expression as he took out a report from his briefcase and placed it on the coffee table.
