Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

"What?" Gu Qiushui paused. "Harvard, to study art?"

"Ah."

"Then... why did you suddenly enter the entertainment industry?" Gu Qiushui felt like she had already conjured up a whole TV drama in her mind. "Is it because of financial difficulties, so..."

After years of hard study, I had no choice but to return to China and was forced into the entertainment industry to earn a living...

Gu Qiushui's heart suddenly tightened.

However, Zhao Ruyi denied this, saying, "No, she owns a house here. Although it's not in the center, if she buys it, there definitely won't be any problem with her going to school."

"Then—" Why is that?

“I asked her, and she said it was because of her dream of entering the entertainment industry.”

Gu Qiushui: ...

That dream is truly audacious.

How can someone with no foundation or talent try to break into the entertainment industry?

They chatted for a long time, until the afternoon, when they were both hungry. After ordering another round of cake, Gu Qiushui suddenly asked, "Sister Zhao, would you mind having another artist under your management?"

Why are you suddenly asking this?

"I want to sign the remaining one."

The fork was inserted into the crepe, tilted slightly, and asked, "How many more times?"

"Ah."

"I don't mind."

“Well, about this matter… you…” Gu Qiushui licked her lower lip and changed her mind, “I’ll talk to her about this, and we can have a meal together once we’ve settled things.”

"OK."

As she continued, Zhao Ruyi couldn't help but say, "It's a blessing for Yu Ci to have met you, Sister Gu."

The strong tone of "This is my family's, and I'm thanking you on her behalf" made Gu Qiushui slightly uncomfortable.

She avoided that question, saying, "It was just fate, but it was also due to her own efforts."

"Too."

After they finished talking, the two exchanged contact information, and then Gu Qiushui, wearing sunglasses and high heels, went out in a very aloof manner.

Watching her retreating figure, Zhao Ruyi clicked her tongue in disapproval.

Gu Qiushui is known in the old circle for her gentle exterior but warm interior. She is a shrewd and sophisticated person who avoids trouble and is very good at self-control.

this time--

They actually offered to sign a new talent? It seems Yu Ci's talent is truly exceptional; his acting skills are probably at a superb level. It seems we should perhaps develop a strategic training plan for Yu Ci when we have time.

-

After finishing his phone call with Zhao Ruyi and discovering that Zhao Ruyi didn't have any good roles to offer, Yu Ci felt quite at ease being a lazy bum.

See? She tried, but there really weren't any roles available. She should just keep waiting quietly.

Lying on the soft sofa, she held up her phone to check the comments from her fans on Weibo. Suddenly, she realized something was wrong. How come her fan count had suddenly increased by over 100,000?

After reading the comments for a while, she turned to Gu Qiushui's Weibo and saw the sentence "You are very cute". Yu Ci was stunned for a moment.

The goddess said she was...cute?

I've never been praised like this during all those days on set. Is it really that high praise you receive as soon as you get back?

It's really, secretly satisfying.

After lying there for a while, WeChat suddenly lit up. Yu Ci guessed that an automatic renewal had popped up. She yawned and was about to click to close it when her eyes twitched.

Goddess Gu / Red Dot x2.

……

Upon clicking, I found two voice messages.

Gu Qiushui: Are you in the capital right now? There's something I'd like to discuss with you.

Gu Qiushui: It's a very important matter.

Yu Ci immediately opened the nine-grid keyboard and typed: What's going on in the capital?

Gu Qiushui: Is it convenient to talk on the phone?

Yu Ci: Convenient!

Within seconds, the WeChat screen was overwritten by the incoming call screen, and Yu Ci answered the call.

Gu Qiushui's slightly calm voice crackled through the microphone, "Good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Sister Qiushui!"

"Hmm..." Even though he doesn't have any roles to play anymore, is his voice still so lively?

"I'm calling you because there's something I want to ask you."

"What?" Yu Ci was quite curious. What could be so important?

Do you have a talent agency?

This problem? Could it be!

"I didn't, so what?"

"It's good that you don't have one. Here's the thing, I left Starlight and set up my own studio..." How should she continue? Should she invite him directly, or take a roundabout approach? Gu Qiushui paused, "Currently, the studio only has me as an artist, which isn't enough."

"So I want to sign another artist. I think you... have great talent and a very distinctive look, so I want to sign you."

It felt like being suddenly hit by a huge pie.

Yu Ci was a little confused. "This, Sister Qiushui, you want to sign me?"

"Hmm," Gu Qiushui replied. "You know our studio's agent too, Zhao Ruyi, Sister Zhao. I know you have a good relationship with her. How about you consider coming to work for me—"

"Don't think about it."

"..." Gu Qiushui felt her heart skip a beat.

"Sister Qiushui, thank you so much for your appreciation. I'm happy to accept it."

"Being able to visit your studio feels like a dream come true."

Because there was no one around and the empty room was quiet, no one saw Gu Qiushui's face light up and her demeanor become warm after listening to the phone call.

Yu Ci here also seemed to have his aura sublimated.

After lying in bed for only three to five days, this lazy bum... is he about to turn over?!

Working with Goddess Gu.

In a studio, there were only two employees...

Isn't this just handing the lamb to the wolf's mouth?

Simply perfect.

After secretly rejoicing at home for a while, Yu Ci received another message from Gu Qiushui.

Goddess Gu:

The filming of "The Romantic Beauty" is still ongoing and will likely wrap up at the end of September. Sister Zhao will also be handing over her work. I have already given her your information. During this time, you should rest at home and practice your acting skills and dialogue delivery.

Goddess Gu:

Let's have dinner together again in early October and finalize the contract.

Yu Ci: Okay (*?▽?*), I got it!

Yu Ci: If there's anything I don't understand at home, can I ask you?

Goddess Gu: It's fine on set, and of course it's fine at home too.

Yu Ci: Well... do you have time to visit the set? (????)

Gu Qiushui raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw the words.

Goddess Gu: If you want to come, of course you can.

If you want to come, of course you can.

Chapter 57 Shocking! The Daily Life of a Top Actress is Actually a Lie!

After confirming that the pie had fallen into his lap, Yu Ci avoided his lazy, inactive behavior.

The so-called... honing acting skills.

Without a teacher in front of her, she could only feel.

Find a classic character, movie, or role, and try to feel it carefully, little by little.

However, for some reason, this kind of practice has had little effect.

Yu Ci started looking up TV dramas about Gu Qiushui.

The reason for turning this up is not for any other reason, but simply because, as it stands, among the younger generation of actresses, Li is the one who is most successful.

I watched it bit by bit, starting from the first episode.

I tried to imitate it very seriously, but I found that—

It's a bit hard to imitate.

After failing to imitate the female lead again, she sent a message to the person on the other end of WeChat.

Yu Ci: I feel so uncomfortable.

Goddess Gu: What's wrong?

Yu Ci: The character Miao Miao that you played... I can't even imitate a fraction of her.

Gu Qiushui: ...

Gu Qiushui, who was reading the script for "The Beauty and the Wind," also had a headache.
