I became a movie star at the age of three; Dilraba and I are childhood sweethearts.

"She's Liu Yifei!"

"Countless men want to invite her to dinner but can't find a way, and you, on the other hand, just rejected her outright."

Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow slightly.

How did you know I refused?

Yang Mi narrowed her fox-like eyes smugly.

"Just a guess."

"Otherwise, who was she trying to impress with that distraught look?"

As she spoke, she looked Xiao Chen up and down.

I have to admit, this face is incredibly striking.

No wonder the fairy sister was tempted by mortal desires.

Unfortunately, this guy's heart is made of stone.

Xiao Chen had no interest in continuing the topic and glanced at his watch.

"There are still ten minutes until class starts. Why aren't you in the classroom? What are you doing here blocking my way?"

Upon hearing the word "class," Yang Mi's arrogance instantly diminished.

She then remembered that the guy in front of her, who was three years younger than her, was now her acting teacher.

Moreover, she was the kind of devilish teacher who was absolute and could fail her at any time.

She guiltily released her grip on Xiao Chen's arm and chuckled.

"Isn't this...isn't this the record-breaking ratings of 'Chinese Paladin'?"

"I came here especially to congratulate you, Teacher Xiao!"

She emphasized the words "Teacher Xiao".

"I watched every single episode of that show, it was absolutely amazing!"

"The Li Xiaoyao you played was so roguish yet handsome, he was practically pulled out of the game!"

"Now everyone online calls you Brother Xiaoyao!"

Yang Mi spoke with great enthusiasm, her eyes sparkling.

She's a girl addicted to the internet; she's played the game "Chinese Paladin" countless times.

Although the plots of the TV series and the game are practically identical.

But Xiao Chen's portrayal of Li Xiaoyao is exactly the Li Xiaoyao she imagined!

That innate sense of youthfulness.

Absolutely!

Xiao Chen didn't react much to these compliments; he'd heard them too many times.

"Have you finished congratulating me?"

Yang Mi answered instinctively.

"It's over..."

He then quickly added more.

"It's not over yet!"

She took a step forward, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Um, Xiao Chen..."

"Junior student..."

"Teacher Xiao!"

"Look how popular fantasy dramas are, do you have any ideas for your next project?"

"How about you take me with you?"

"I also want to play a fairy, flying around with you, wandering the world with a sword and stuff."

She clasped her hands together in a pleading gesture, her voice several degrees sweeter.

That was her real purpose for coming today.

The immense popularity of "Chinese Paladin" has made everyone realize the huge market potential of fantasy dramas.

Xiao Chen is undoubtedly the key to unlocking this market.

Who wouldn't want to work with him?

Who wouldn't want to be the next Zhao Ling'er?

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen finally looked up and examined her seriously.

Yang Mi wore a red coat today, which made her fair skin look even whiter and more radiant.

Her fox-like eyes sparkled with a hint of cunning and a touch of coquettishness, radiating a captivating charm.

This face is definitely suited for the big screen.

The image of a character flashed through Xiao Chen's mind.

The eldest daughter of the Tang family, Xuejian.

She's feisty and spoiled, but kind and gentle at heart.

He felt in his past life that Yang Mi's portrayal of Xuejian was an irreplaceable classic and one of her most spirited roles.

Since she brought it up herself, then perhaps...

The idea quickly took shape in his mind.

A sequel with a grander scope and more complex emotional entanglements than "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1".

The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3.

Jing Tian, ​​Xue Jian, Long Kui, Zi Xuan, Chang Qing...

Vivid characters and epic storylines emerged clearly in his mind.

This work does not yet exist in this world.

And he can bring it.

Thinking of this, a flicker of emotion finally appeared in Xiao Chen's eyes.

He looked at Yang Mi and spoke slowly.

"Can."

Just two simple words.

Yang Mi thought she had misheard.

She blinked and pointed to herself in disbelief.

"Are you...are you serious?"

"Is that settled?"

Happiness came so suddenly that she felt a little dizzy.

She originally just wanted to sound out Xiao Chen's intentions, hoping that he would remember her if he had a suitable project in the future.

To everyone's surprise, Xiao Chen agreed on the spot!

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Um."

He then added.

"However, it's not just you."

Yang Mi was taken aback.

"what?"

Xiao Chen continued speaking in his calm tone.

"Now, contact Sister Tang Yan and Sister Shi Shi."

Ask them if they are available for the next six months.

Tang Yan?

Liu Shishi?

Yang Mi's mind raced.

They went to the same kindergarten and were both Xiao Chen's seniors from elementary school; they've known each other since they were little.

Of course, we're still good friends who occasionally keep in touch.

Is Xiao Chen planning to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?

Yang Mi panicked and blurted out whatever came to mind.

"You...you mean..."

"The four of us...together?"

Xiao Chen frowned, feeling that there was something strange about what he had said, but he didn't think much of it.

"right."

"I have a good grasp of the script. It's a fantasy ensemble drama, and the roles of the three of you are all very important."

Ensemble drama!

The three of them together!

That's great!

She knew Xiao Chen; he never made empty promises.

He said he had a plan, which meant the script, investment, and production team.

Everything was already under his control.

Yang Mi felt like she was about to faint from happiness.

She frantically pulled out her phone.

"I...I'll call right away! Right away!"

She first dialed Tang Yan's number.

Tang Yan's gentle and sweet voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Mimi, what's wrong?"

Yang Mi's voice is high-pitched and bright.

"Tangtang! This is fantastic news!"

"Quick! Ask for leave and don't go to school!"

"Xiao Chen is starting a new film, and he specifically asked for you!"

Tang Yan's voice instantly rose several octaves.

"What?!"

Yang Mi gave an excited explanation.

"A fantasy drama! An ensemble piece!"

"The three of us together! You, me, and Shishi!"

There was a full three seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a piercing scream.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"

"Mi Mi, are you dreaming?!"

"Is Xiao Chen going to act in a movie with us?"

Yang Mi was so excited that she stomped her feet on the spot.

"It's not a dream! It's absolutely true! Xiao Chen is right next to me!"

"Stop yelling! Tell me quickly, do you have time?"

Tang Yan's voice was trembling with sobs.

"Yes! Yes! Absolutely!"

"Even if there isn't any, we'll squeeze it out!"

"I'll go ask the school for leave right away!"

After hanging up with Tang Yan, Yang Mi immediately dialed Liu Shishi's number.

Unlike Tang Yan's excitement, Liu Shishi's reaction was much more restrained.

But Yang Mi could still hear the shock and joy in her increasingly rapid breathing.

"...Okay, I understand."

"Mimi, thank you."

"Please thank Xiao Chen for me as well."

Get it!

Yang Mi hung up the phone with satisfaction, and when she looked up, she met Xiao Chen's deep eyes.
