My Wife Is a Superstar - Season 1 Episode 6

“I never liked children so I don’t like this method of creating publicity.” She avoided Wang Xiaoou’s gaze as she explained.

Wang Xiaoou saw right through Luo Fei’s guilty conscience.

Luo Fei was the type of person who would go all out to find ways to boost her popularity.

However, she didn’t pursue this matter as Luo Fei wouldn’t talk about it.

After all, the tone of their relationship was strictly business and nothing more.

“Alright, I’ll pull some strings to keep the photos from being published.” “However, we are living in a digital era and there are so many people taking photos here today. There is no guarantee that I can get every single one deleted.”

Wang Xiaoou explained calmly. Luo Fei stood up and pointed at her angrily, “I don’t care! This is your job! You must take care of this! If even one photo was posted on the internet, it would be due to your incompetence!”

Still furious, Luo Fei continued, “I am Nan Chen’s girlfriend! I’ll end your career in Flower City if you don’t clean this up!”

Wang Xiaoou’s face grew cold but she didn’t argue any further.

“I will take care of this. It’s getting late. You should get some rest. We still haven’t to attend the audition for Sound of Thunder 2 tomorrow morning. Even though the cast has been fixed there will still be reporters so don’t be late.”

Having said that, she turned and left leaving a bewildered and angry Luo Fei standing there like a statue.

…..

It was only a 20 minutes’ drive from the airport to Cheng Xiangyun’s home.

Through the car window, Ning Ran gazed at this once familiar sight of city with a feeling of uneasiness.

She had finally returned after five years of absence.

Raising both her children single handedly in a foreign country for five years had been tough for Ning Ran.

She had stumbled upon a film crew that needed an Asian supporting actress by chance.

The character was just a minor role which had very brief appearance. Although it didn’t pay much, Ning Ran gave her best.

She had brought life to an ordinary character and that led to her emergence as a talented actress.

Later on, the director even added more scenes for her. She had successfully made a name for herself with that character and even won some small awards.

Her best friend Cheng Xiangyun had invited her to return to China as she managed to get Ning Ran an opportunity to audition for a key acting role.

Apart from that, she also wanted to find out the reason behind her mother’s sudden death and reclaimed what was rightfully hers.

“Ning Ran, we’re here.”

Ning Ran snapped out of her thoughts and dragged her luggage into the elevator with Cheng Xiangyun.

As soon as she entered the house, Ning Sihan gave a sudden shout of surprise, “Auntie, your house is huge!”

Cheng Xiangyun was delighted, “I am a successful manager and I bought this house with my hard-earned money!”

Ning Sihan was a clever little girl and she added, “Auntie, you’re amazing!”

On the other hand, Ning Sirui maintained an uptight expression but nodded in approval like an adult.

Cheng Xiangyun was so amused by these siblings that she hugged and kissed them both.

They entered the room and retrieved the script and the list of candidates for the audition.

“Tomorrow is the day for the audition. Here, have a look at the list. You can continue unpacking your stuff later.”

Ning Ran nodded as she took a look at the list and saw Luo Fei’s name on top of the list.
