Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 555 Fan Shengmei 10

"Okay, sister." Yu Anyan's voice was obedient, but her hand holding the phone tightened.

After the call ended, he didn't even realize that his conversation had been interrupted, which made him feel inexplicably down.

I still think about all the messy things in the entertainment industry, and I'm a little worried.

Fan Shengmei had no idea what he was thinking. She was looking at the person outside the door and asked, "Qin Qiu, what do you want with me?"

Actually, when she saw that this person came to see her late at night and seemed to have tidied himself up, she guessed some of his purpose.

Qin Qiu has a typical pretty face, wearing a slightly fitted white shirt with the collar buttons undone a bit too low.

Fan Shengmei only glanced at him, without looking closely, her gaze remaining emotionless on his face.

He met Fan Shengmei's eyes, which seemed to have seen right through him.

Qin Qiu was a little nervous: "President Fan, I... I'd like to ask you for help with the acting."

Fan Shengmei stared at him, remaining silent, just as Qin Qiu grew increasingly uneasy.

She finally spoke: "It's already late, and I have to get up early to film tomorrow."

Understanding the implication in her words, Qin Qiu gritted her teeth, wanting to persevere a little longer: "I really do, there are some parts of my acting that I'd like to ask you for advice on."

He had actually been struggling with this decision for several days before finally deciding to come see Fan Shengmei tonight, because among the new recruits in the company, he had the worst resources.

Fan Shengmei remained unmoved: "If you're not in good shape, I can give you a break and have someone else take over the role."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qiu panicked slightly: "No, I'm sorry, Mr. Fan, I misunderstood. I'll go back right away."

"After this scene is finished, go back and rest for a while. I will have someone notify your agent and ask her to find someone to help you hone your acting skills."

After saying that, Fan Shengmei didn't give him a chance to speak and closed the door directly.

She was just giving him a small lesson and putting him on hold for a while. Before she came, Yunshang had told her about the two newcomers she brought with her.

Because the company doesn't tolerate idlers, she also wanted Qin Qiu to improve herself and stop thinking about unnecessary things.

Under normal circumstances, companies won't give up on him. After all, they've spent money on his image and haven't recouped their investment yet, so they definitely need to let him realize his value.

Their company is actually quite fair to these newcomers. Qin Qiu has the worst resources because his acting skills are the worst among them.

The roles he played in the previous dramas didn't make much of a splash after they aired.

However, the reason the company was able to give him a role as the third male lead this time is because the role is not difficult, and his face and temperament are just right.

The company was also thinking that he should seize the opportunity to see if he could become famous.

I asked Xiaoqi, and it said that Qin Qiu has some good fortune, but the process of cultivating it in the early stages will be quite long.

Fan Shengmei called Yunshang and told her about what happened tonight.

Just over ten minutes after the call ended, Qin Qiu's agent called to apologize to her.

Since Fan Shengmei had already given her own solution, she naturally didn't pursue the matter any further.

She believed that with this incident as a starting point, other people in the company would also be able to curb their desire to take shortcuts.

The next day, when Yu Anyan chatted with her, he asked about what happened last night, and she only gave a few brief answers.

Fan Shengmei stayed on set for several months before she was finally able to go home.

Just before lunchtime, she pushed her suitcase to her doorstep, opened the door, and called out loudly, "Aunt Tan!"

A middle-aged woman came out of the kitchen: "Xiao Fan is back? Are you hungry?"

"Yes, I rushed home as soon as I got off the plane. I wanted to eat Aunt Tan's cooking!"

"I'll make it now. The same few dishes you like, I guess?"

Fan Shengmei: "Make a few more dishes. We'll have guests coming later. I'm going to take a shower first."

"Okay, I'll prepare it right away. Does the guest have any dietary restrictions?"

She thought for a moment before saying, "Don't make it too spicy. It should be similar to my taste. There shouldn't be any food I can't eat normally."

She only found out that Yu Anyan didn't eat spicy food much because he mentioned it on the phone.

After hearing this, Aunt Tan went about her business, and Fan Shengmei also carried her suitcase upstairs.

Originally, Yu Anyan was waiting for her to come back so they could have dinner at his house, but now, because the two of them are getting more and more familiar with each other, he has arranged to come to her place first.

Originally, when she returned from out of town, Yu Anyan said he would pick her up at the airport, but she refused. Fan Shengmei felt that it was unnecessary for him to make a special trip, especially in the sweltering heat.

But seeing that he still wanted to insist, she had no choice but to suggest that someone come to her house for dinner, which finally made him give up.

After taking a shower and changing into her pajamas, Fan Shengmei went downstairs. She had just sat down on the sofa when Yu Anyan called.

"Where have you been?"

Yu Anyan: "Sister, I've set off according to the address you gave me, and I'm almost at the entrance of the community."

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at home."

"Can I stay on the phone? I'm worried I won't be able to find my way later."

It was very hot outside, and Fan Shengmei felt embarrassed to say she wouldn't go out to pick someone up, but she figured she could find her way home using the navigation.

Therefore, she had no problem with his request not to hang up: "Of course, I won't hang up."

Yu Anyan had no idea what she was thinking; he was still happy that she hadn't hung up.

Five minutes later, Fan Shengmei opened her door and saw Yu Anyan standing outside.

"Come in and cool off. It's sunny outside, don't stand there."

Looking at the exquisite villa in front of her, which was obviously very valuable, Yu Anyan suddenly felt that they were not from the same social class.

"Sister, is this your home?"

"Yes, why did you bring something with you?"

Suddenly changed the subject, Yu Anyan didn't have time to think about anything else.

"Since this is my first visit, I thought I should bring a gift. Are your parents here, sister? Should I go and say hello?"

“My parents don’t live with me. It’s just me and my aunt here. Aunt Tan is the cook I hired, so you don’t need to be shy.”

Yu Anyan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and Fan Shengmei led him to sit down on the sofa.

"The food isn't ready yet, would you like something to drink?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Anyan withdrew her gaze from admiring the living room's decor and said, "I'll drink whatever you want, sister."

"Okay, just wait."

Twenty minutes later at the dinner table, Yu Anyan raised her glass and said, "Congratulations on wrapping up filming, sister."

"Thank you. How are you doing at the company?"

Yunshang had actually told her that Yu Anyan was very hardworking at the company, but because it was a part-time job, she was mostly assigned odd jobs.

They did not reveal their identities. Yu Anyan only got in through a human resources interview and did not know that the company belonged to her.

Yu Anyan: "I'm fine. I haven't properly thanked my sister for introducing me to the job yet. Let me toast you."

As Yu Anyan spoke, he tilted his head back, intending to down the wine in his glass in one gulp.

As a result, he choked because he drank it too quickly: "Cough, cough cough cough~"
