Huayu Entertainment: It was the young actress who took the initiative.

Chapter 72 Gathering the Three Sisters

While eating, Bai Mengyan asked curiously, "Chen Mo, after your drama 'Three Lives Three Worlds' became a huge hit, has your schedule been incredibly packed? I've seen you posting mostly photos of yourself filming on Weibo lately."

Chen Mo picked up a slice of tripe and dipped it in the hot pot: "It's alright. I did film a few scenes recently, but I'm resting and adjusting these days."

The main thing is to maintain my form and prepare for the next role.

"The next project?"

Li Yitong looked up at him, her eyes filled with curiosity, "You've taken on a new role?"

"Yes, I've taken on a campus drama, 'Hello, Old Times,' which is invested in by Little Sugar Man. I'll be playing the male lead."

Chen Mo spoke calmly, but Bai Mengyan and Li Yitong's reactions were anything but calm.

"Wow!"

Bai Mengyan's eyes widened. "You're going to play the male lead?"

Wow! Congratulations!

Li Yitong smiled, happy for Chen Mo: "Is this your first official leading role?"

Chen Mo thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, Yang Kang in 'The Legend of the Condor Heroes' is considered the second male lead, and Yan Xun in 'Princess Agents' is also considered the second male lead. This time, he is indeed the male lead."

""

"Very good!"

Bai Mengyan was already brainstorming ideas for Chen Mo: "Campus dramas have a wide audience; if you act well, you can gain another wave of fans!"

Li Yitong thought about it in more detail: "Who is the director?"

"Director Shamo is a fairly accomplished classically trained director."

"I see—"

Li Yitong nodded. "So what kind of role do you play?"

"Lin Yang, a sunny and cheerful school heartthrob, is very affectionate and devoted."

Chen Mo briefly explained the character relationships, "The female lead is Li Landi."

"Is Li Landi a child star? Then her acting skills must be pretty good."

As the three were chatting, Chen Mo's phone screen lit up on the table.

It's a WeChat message.

Chen Mo picked up his phone and glanced at it. It was a message from Li Qin: "Chen Mo, I just got home from work. Are you home? Want to have dinner together?"

Chen Mo glanced at his two friends who were chatting enthusiastically and replied, "Sister Qin, my friends and I are having hot pot at home. How about next time? My treat!"

Li Yitong noticed his movement and casually asked, "Who is it?"

My friend who lives downstairs asked me if I had eaten.

"Living downstairs?"

Bai Mengyan became interested. "They're our neighbors? Let's invite them up! We bought so much food, the three of us can't possibly finish it all."

Li Yitong nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's more lively with more people."

Chen Mo thought about it and felt it made sense.

He picked up his phone again: "Sister Qin, would you like to come over to my place and have something to eat?"

There was a few seconds of silence on Li Qin's end before she replied, "Is this convenient? Will it bother you?"

"It's okay, they're all friends in the industry, I'm just glad you don't mind."

"Alright then. Shall I come up now?"

"Yes, I live in 1602."

After putting down his phone, Chen Mo said to Bai Mengyan and Li Yitong, "She's coming up now."

"Very good!"

Bai Mengyan is an outgoing person and loves making new friends. "I'll go prepare a set of chopsticks and a bowl for her."

Li Yitong got up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to see what other ingredients we have, and add some more."

A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.

Chen Mo went to open the door.

Li Qin stood outside the door. Today she was wearing a beige knitted cardigan over a simple white T-shirt and jeans, with light makeup on her face. She looked much gentler than when she was on set.

"Sorry to bother you."

She said it somewhat shyly.

"It's alright, come in."

Chen Mo stepped aside to let her in and handed her a pair of new slippers.

Li Lin changed her shoes and walked into the living room, where she was stunned when she saw Bai Mengyan and Li Yitong.

She recognized both of them; they were both young actors who, while not particularly famous, seemed to have acted in some productions.

"Hello, I'm Li Qin."

She greeted the two of them politely.

"Hello, Sister Lin! I'm Bai Mengyan!"

Bai Mengyan waved enthusiastically.

"Li Yitong".

Li Yitong smiled and nodded.

"I know you."

Li Qin smiled and said, "I've heard other friends mention you."

"I've seen Sister Lin's performances!"

Bai Mengyan praised with a smile, "The young Xue Baochai in 'Dream of the Red Chamber' was portrayed so well!"

The atmosphere immediately became lively.

After all, Chen Mo and Li Lin had just finished working together, so they had a lot to talk about.

The four of them sat down around the dining table again.

Bai Mengyan prepared a dipping sauce for Li, and Li Yitong went to the kitchen to cut some fruit.

"Sister Lin, you had so many scenes with Chen Mo in 'Princess Agents,' was he particularly dedicated to his acting?"

Bai Mengyan was a little curious.

Li Lin glanced at Chen Mo and nodded with a smile: "Very serious."

Moreover, he has a particularly impressive ability: he can also evoke the emotions of his fellow actors.

When I act opposite him, it's very easy for me to get into character.

With the added benefit of the "emotional contagion" tag, it's not surprising that Li Qin felt this way.

"It's because Sister Lin acted so well. You'll see when 'Princess Agents' airs."

Don't be modest.

Li Qin looked at Chen Mo with a serious expression, "You really have a talent for acting, and you work very hard. I've seen you reading the script even when you're resting on set."

"Absolutely!"

Bai Mengyan was proud, "Our Chen Mo is a true talent!"

The four chatted while eating, their conversation ranging from "Princess Agents" to their own recent situations.

Li Lin said she had just finished her business trip and was taking a break to prepare for a new script.

Bai Mengyan said she just finished filming a web series called "The King Is Not Easy" and is now waiting for it to be broadcast.

Li Yitong said she has recently been in talks for a new drama, but has not yet finalized her role in it.

The steam from the hot pot filled the room as the four young people chatted about work and life, occasionally cracking jokes in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.

Li Qin was initially a little reserved, after all, she was a slow starter.

But Bai Mengyan's liveliness and enthusiasm, along with Li Yitong's gentle and generous nature, quickly made her feel at home at the small gathering.

She looked at the three people in front of her and felt a mix of emotions.

In this highly competitive and complex social circle, it is truly rare to find friends who are genuinely sincere with you.

She looked at Chen Mo's profile, her thoughts drifting.

She recalled how earnestly he acted on the set of "Princess Agents".

Thinking back to that dinner, he told himself that he didn't care about other people's opinions, only his own.

He always puts people at ease, and when a barrage of doubts comes his way, he remains calm and continues doing his own thing.

When "Eternal Love" premiered, all the doubts were dispelled and replaced by praise. He did not become arrogant or complacent amidst the praise.

"Come on, let's drink to our friendship!"

Bai Mengyan raised her juice glass and made the suggestion.

"Cheers!"

The four cups clinked together, making a crisp sound.

Outside the window, the night in Beijing was gradually deepening.
