The big shot is trending on social media every day.

Chapter 10 Why is he so good to Jiang Li?
Chu Yan took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to her friend: [Zi Qing, how have you been lately?]

The message was sent, but there has been no reply.

Chu Yan left the magazine photoshoot.

Back at the Chu Mansion.

I just received a voice call from Fang Ziqing.

"Just finished." Fang Ziqing said with dissatisfaction, "If my manager hadn't forced me, I would have had a stunt double do those dangerous stunts. My face is so precious, what if it got hurt?"

Chu Yan put down the script and asked with concern, "Is filming going smoothly?"

"Hmm." The sound of a car door closing came from Fang Ziqing's side: "Yan Yan, I have some news, I don't know if you've heard, Jiang Li went to audition for the second female lead in 'Like a Dream'."

Chu Yan said softly, "I heard it from people at the company."

Fang Ziqing smiled enigmatically: "She's really something. She just got back and got the director to cast her as the second female lead, 'Jiu Huo,' despite everyone's objections."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yan's eyes turned cold, but her voice remained gentle: "You've already cast the second female lead?"

"Someone like Jiang Li, does she even deserve it?" Fang Ziqing leaned back in her car seat. "I don't believe there's no shady dealing involved."

Chu Yan didn't reply, but said with a worried tone, "You know how bad my sister's reputation was before. I'm afraid she will be boycotted by the entire internet again and lose face once more."

Fang Ziqing, the female lead in "Like a Dream," said irritably, "I don't want her to drag down my new drama either."

Wen Chi has some say in the production crew; it's not easy for Fang Ziqing to kick out the people he appoints.

Chu Yan sighed softly: "I don't understand why my sister is still so persistent. Maybe she wants to compete with me."

"Comparing her to you? Are you kidding me?" Fang Ziqing said sarcastically.

Chu Yan said, "Actually, my father wants my sister to leave the entertainment industry and find her a marriage partner. I don't want to see her being scolded every day either, but no one can persuade my sister."

"Yan Yan, why are you suddenly so slow to think?" Fang Ziqing said, "Why don't you just make sure Jiang Li can't get any roles? If he can't make it, he can just quit."

"This... I'm afraid my sister will resent Dad and me," Chu Yan said with difficulty.

Fang Ziqing narrowed her eyes, thinking of Jiang Li's face.

If Jiang Li were to play Jiu Huo, she would likely steal the spotlight, leaving Jiang Li overshadowed and without any highlights.

We can't keep her here.

A slight glint flashed in Fang Ziqing's eyes, and she went along with it, saying, "Leave this to me. I'll help you make her give up completely."

Chu Yan smiled slightly and hung up the call.

A male voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Lili is back?"

Chu Yan was startled and turned around to see Chu Linfeng standing behind the sofa.

"Brother, you scared me to death!" Chu Yan said softly and coquettishly.

Chu Linfeng's expression turned cold: "Yan Yan, you're doing very well now, and the Yu family likes you too. Don't make things difficult for Li Li anymore."

Chu Yan frowned, stood up, and looked at Chu Linfeng with red eyes.

“Brother, my success is due to my own hard work. The Yu family likes me but not my sister because she doesn’t cherish her reputation. That’s why the Yu family wants to break off the engagement with her. Why do you say I’m making things difficult for her?”

"Brother, I am your own sister, why are you framing me?"

Chu Linfeng pursed his lips, looked into her tearful eyes, and after two seconds, said indifferently, "It's good that you didn't do it."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Chu Yan stared at his retreating figure, her eyes filled with gloom.

Her brother has never been close to her since she was a child.

She thought it was because he had a cold personality.

Until one day, she accidentally discovered that her brother had asked his friend to transfer money to Jiang Li's card.

She then realized that her brother could also care about people.

But why should he be nice to Jiang Li?
She was clearly his biological sister.

……

night.

Jiang Li received a message from Cheng Sijun.

Director Wen dislikes hype, so there will be no publicity during the filming of "Like a Dream," which is a good thing for you, as it reduces a lot of obstacles.

[Once this drama airs, we'll let our work speak for itself. You should study the script carefully.]

Jiang Li replied succinctly: 【Mm.】

During the following period, Jiang Li rarely left the house, spending most of her time reading the script for "Like a Dream." Good scripts are hard to come by.

Jiang Li watched intently.

Jiang Zaiye stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a while every day.

Looking at the Northern Emperor Manor across the moat, he sighed, "I really want Qin Yexiao to move out and let me live in the manor."

Cheng Sijun did not know who the owner of the Beidi Manor was.

Jiang Zaiye found it with just a few taps on his phone.

Xi Shi and Diao Chan let out a howl, seemingly agreeing with Jiang Zaiye's delusional wishful thinking.

Jiang Li took a sip of iced cola and said indifferently, "It's been a week. If you've had enough fun, go find a school yourself."

Jiang Zaiye's face instantly fell. He stuffed the binoculars back into the plastic bag, looking aggrieved: "I understand. Should I look for a kindergarten or an elementary school?"

"Whatever," Jiang Li said curtly.

Jiang Zaiye slumped his shoulders, said "Oh" and humbly, "Then I'll find an elementary school. School ends early, so I don't need anyone to pick me up."

……

The full cast of "Like a Dream" has been confirmed.

Wen Chi invited everyone in the group to have a meal together so they could get to know each other better.

Investors will also come.

Therefore, the restaurant was set up at the upscale Yunshang Pavilion.

Jiang arrived right on time; most of the people were already there.

The private room was almost full.

Many of them are working together for the first time, and they are all greeting each other and adding each other on WeChat.

Jiang Li followed the crowd.

She added most of them as friends, then entered the game and started a match, but didn't interact with anyone much.

The second male lead is a relatively lively artist in the entertainment industry named Song Mingkai.

There was an empty seat between Jiang Li and me.

Song Mingkai watched Jiang Li play the game with a relaxed attitude and unhurried operation, and then looked at her when she had more than ten kills in ten minutes and her experience and equipment crushed the whole game.

He nudged Xiao Yi with his arm, then raised his chin and silently exclaimed, "Wow! So handsome!"

Song Mingkai had certainly heard of Jiang Li's reputation, but this was the first time he had dined at the same table with her.

I don't think Kang Ri is as bad as the rumors in the entertainment industry suggest.

Xiao Yi curled his lips into a smile.

He's handsome.

He was so handsome during the audition that day, just by reciting a line.

He felt that Bai was two years older than her.

"There are very few female players in this game, and I've never seen anyone play it as well as her before," Song Mingkai said softly.

Then, he secretly glanced at Jiang Li's skill level and said in surprise, "How come his skill level is so low?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the box was pushed open.

The director and lead actress Fang Ziqing arrived late.

The two were surrounding a rich second-generation.

"Young Master Luo, please." Wen Chi was very polite, after all, he was an investor.

As soon as Luo Wei entered, he noticed Jiang Li sitting to one side.

Before retiring from the entertainment industry, Jiang Li was quite famous; with just her face, she could easily outshine countless other celebrities.

Her beauty is well-known.

Despite having a lot of scandals, being a risky artist, and not having many good resources.

But she has many suitors.

However, no one has the ability to pluck this rare and beautiful flower.

Luo Wei's gaze involuntarily lingered on Jiang Li.

Fang Ziqing followed his gaze and caught sight of Jiang Li's face, which could easily outshine everyone no matter when or where. A cold glint appeared in her eyes, and she tightened her grip on Luo Wei's hand.
