While on her way to the TV station, Changqing received a random phone call from an unknown number. “Hello, who is this?”
“Changqing, it’s me, Auntie Shen. Do you still remember me?” An amiable voice came through from the other end of the call. When she heard the voice, Changqing’s mood was completely affected and a mixed feeling arose inside her as it never crossed her mind that the voice would belong to Fu Yu’s mother – Shen Lu.
Changqing’s mother passed away when Changqing was seven years old. When she and her sister lived in Yangzhou, Shen Lu always treated them well to the extent of literally treating them like her own biological daughters.
Changqing used to love going to the Shen family’s house because Shen Lu was a gentle person just like her mother. She would regularly give Changqing whatever delicious food and nice clothes she had. When Changqing had her first menstruation cycle, she didn’t dare to tell her granny and sister. In the end, it was Shen Lu who found out about it through her meticulousness. When Fu Yu told her about Shen Lu being hospitalized when she last saw him, she intended to visit Shen Lu sometime later. However, she didn’t expect Shen Lu to call her before she could visit her.
Shen Lu smiled: “Fu Yu mentioned to me yesterday that he came across you two days ago. Changqing, auntie feels it’s been so long since I last saw you.”
“I feel the same,” replied Changqing as she felt warmth evoked in her heart. “Auntie, I heard that your health... isn’t doing so well. Which hospital are you staying at now? I’ll pay you a visit after my work.”
“Will that be a bother to you?” Shen Lu asked. She didn’t reject her. In fact, she was pretty happy about Changqing saying she would visit her.
“Auntie, please don’t say that. This is the least I can do. Moreover, I missed you very much too, ” Changqing replied. It was a heartfelt statement, and it wasn’t just her being polite.
“Great. Auntie is now staying at Bo Han Hospital,” Shen Lu was very pleased with Changqing, and she told Changqing her current location.
Changqing broke into a sweat. This was too much of a coincidence... But as Bo Han Hospital was the leading authority and the best hospital among all other hospitals in the entire city, it was reasonable that the majority of people would choose to seek treatment there. “My sister is currently working at Bo Han Hospital too,” said Changqing.
“Is that so?” Shen Lu was delighted. “It’s been awhile since I saw Zhangrui as well. Can you give me her phone number too?”
“Sure.”
After she ended the conversation with Shen Lu, Changqing gave a call to her sister as well. During the call, Zhangrui told her she’d pay a visit to Shen Lu during her lunch break.

At ten o’clock in the morning, a meeting was conducted in the conference room of the TV station. All the editors, writers, producers and hosts who worked for all the different TV channels attended the meeting.
Before the station head arrived, the crowd discussed among themselves what they thought the main agenda of the meeting would be. Changqing actually had some guesses about it. She heard rumors circulating in the TV station at the beginning of the year that the TV station would be co-producing a new drama with a certain media company. Reportedly, some of the important characters in the show would be selected from within the TV station. The show would truly be a good opportunity for one to improve their popularity.
She pricked up her ears and listened attentively to the people around her. She heard a few familiar names being thrown around in the discussion, and the names that were mentioned were hosts who had a good public image.
“If I were to provide my input, I’d say your looks and age are perfect for this TV series,” Zheng Yan whispered into Changqing’s ear.
Just when Changqing was about to reply to Zheng Yan, Station Head FengStation Head Feng suddenly stepped inside the conference room.
The conference room instantly went silent. As expected, right after Station Head FengStation Head Feng sat down, he immediately got straight to the point. “Shangwei Media Corporation will be our partner for our upcoming collaboration, and they already designated some of the main roles to be starred in by their recently signed artist Guan Ying and their popular heartthrob duo, Ke Yongyuan and Yu Kai. As for the remaining supporting cast, four from our TV station will be sent to star in those roles. Of course, among the four supporting roles, the most important role is the supporting actress. The supporting actress will have a prominent part in the show, and the character’s personality is very lovable and will be well-liked by the audience. I’ve privately discussed with various staff such as the editor-in-chief and directors from all over the department, and everyone has a general consensus that Chi Yining is most suitable to play this role.”
“Just as I thought...” Zheng Yan sneered sarcastically and whispered into Changqing’s ear. “With his intentions so obvious, which departments would dare to offend him and object?”
