The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.

The next morning, Shu Xiangyu woke up before the alarm clock rang.

She didn't wake Momo, but quietly got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.

She woke up groggily, yawning as she sat up, rubbing her dry, sore eyes. As she dressed, she yawned several more times. She had forgotten what time she had fallen asleep last night and was still very sleepy.

After Shu Xiangyu finished washing up, she saw that Momo was already dressed. She sat down at the computer to put on makeup and said, "Momo, it's still early. Pack your things first. We'll go to Feicheng together to take care of things later. I'll take you to the train station at noon."

Xi Molin nimbly jumped down from the upper bunk, tugged at the corner of his clothes, and stared at her with a deep gaze: "Sister...it's not very convenient for me to go with you, is it?"

"It's okay, you can just wait for me outside."

Since she said that, Ximerlin didn't say anything more. He accompanied her to the bathroom to bolster his confidence and went to wash up as well.

After they finished packing and walked out of the dormitory building, it was already bright outside, the sun was still shining brightly, and a few white clouds dotted the vast blue sky, which made them feel happy.

After having a quick breakfast outside the school, they took a car to Feicheng Film and Television Media Company.

There are many media companies located in the financial district of Shanghai, but it is very rare to find one that occupies an entire eight or nine-story building.

Feicheng Media is a leader in this field, not only investing in and producing its own film and television dramas, but also acquiring stakes in other film and television productions, and its artists are all incredibly famous.

They arrived an hour earlier than agreed, and the security guard on duty, used to this, politely offered them a place to rest on the first floor.

Shermelin could clearly feel her sister's nervousness. The two sat next to each other, and she held her sister's hand tightly the whole time, her palms sweating.

As time passed, Shu Xiangyu's excited and uneasy mood gradually calmed down. Fortunately, today was not a workday, so she wouldn't encounter too many people who were just observing.

Around nine o'clock, Mei Xiaofei appeared at the company entrance with four or five other people.

The security guard sitting next to the counter immediately stood up to greet them and informed them that two visitors had arrived.

Upon hearing the commotion, Shu Xiangyu, who was waiting not far away, surprisingly did not panic.

She stood up, tidied her long, flowing hair and floral dress, her makeup still elegant and refined. She whispered a few words to Momo, then walked calmly toward the group.

Schimerlin glanced at her departing figure, hoping that everything would go smoothly.

Wearing a dark green silk shirt and white slim-fit trousers, Mei Xiaofei looked calmly at Shu Xiangyu who was walking over. Her gaze unconsciously drifted to the back of Shu Xiangyu, as if the young girl had followed her.

As he approached, Shu Xiangyu smiled and nodded, "Hello, President Mei."

"Hello... Let me introduce you. This is General Manager Lin, Lin Ling, who is in charge of artist contracts. This is Zhao Hong, who will be your manager from now on, and he will be in charge of all your work matters. This is Ni Qing, your future assistant... You have already seen her information. Ling, please take her upstairs to discuss the specific details of the contract. I will come up in a bit."

Mei Xiaofei quickly introduced the identities of the people beside him, giving Shu Xiangyu little time to react.

Lin Ling looked to be in her early thirties, with fair skin, a pretty face, short hair, a short stature, and a plump figure. Wearing a gray suit, she exuded a strong business aura.

Zhao Hong should be in his forties, tall, slightly overweight, with a slicked-back hairstyle, frameless glasses, a blue shirt and jeans.

His eyes held a deep and shrewd depth. He had managed many famous artists and was quite well-known in the industry.

Ni Qing, on the other hand, looked like a college student fresh out of school. She wasn't good at dressing up, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a ponytail, a white T-shirt, black jeans, and a canvas bag slung over her shoulder.

Hello...

Shu Xiangyu steadied her nervous heart and nodded with a bright smile.

They all nodded in agreement with her, secretly acknowledging President Mei's discerning eye; she was indeed a promising talent, but they wondered if she could be made famous.

Lin Ling smiled gently and said politely, "Then please come upstairs with us."

Shu Xiangyu glanced back at the spot where she stood silently, said nothing, and followed the others into the elevator.

Mei Xiaofei was left behind, along with a young woman with a cold demeanor and shoulder-length hair.

Xi Molin sat in the corner of the sofa, not daring to make a sound and disturb her sister's business.

Unexpectedly, a figure suddenly approached and caught her attention, followed by an indifferent voice.

“Schimmerin…”

Xi Molin immediately stood up, looked at Mei Xiaofei who had helped them that night, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Mei Xiaofei casually sat down on the sofa next to her, crossing her long legs and saying in a nonchalant tone, "Sit down..."

The woman behind her, whether a bodyguard or an assistant, was also tall.

She was wearing a sharp black women's suit without a tie, and had a cool and beautiful appearance. She stood to the side with a blank expression, looking quite aloof.

Schimerlin sat down again, wanting to ask the question that was on his mind, but afraid of being too abrupt and upsetting her.

What grade are you in now?

Mei Xiaofei spoke first, asking her a question.

"Grade 11..."

His voice sounded low and hoarse.

What university do you want to attend in the future?

Ximerlin didn't know why she asked these questions, but she answered truthfully anyway: "Armed Police Academy."

Mei Xiaofei raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Good ambition. How good are you at Taekwondo and boxing?"

Schimerlin raised his head slightly: "Not bad, I've won a few awards."

"You've won awards, that's really impressive... My younger brother owns a company that mainly provides martial arts direction and stunt work for film and television, as well as various boxing matches. It's rare to see a girl like you who has trained in martial arts. I wonder if you'd be interested in giving it a try at the company? Of course, you could earn quite a bit of money..."

Mei Xiaofei's expression remained calm, as if he already knew her answer.

The prospect of making a lot of money is certainly attractive.

Schimerlin was a naive young man with little social experience, and he made no attempt to hide his true intentions from an old fox like Mei Xiaofei.

She could see right through her little schemes and wouldn't tolerate her lying or faking anything.

The woman beside him, whose expression had remained unchanged, suddenly frowned and looked up. Her originally calm eyes were inexplicably tinged with a chill, but she ultimately did not react.

"As long as it's not illegal, doesn't conflict with my studies, and my family doesn't object, I'm fine with anything."

Shermell wasn't a blind fool; she understood the meaning behind her words, but she didn't quite understand what it was about her that made her go to such lengths.

Mei Xiaofei smiled coldly: "Your conditions may not seem high, but they are probably not easy to meet."

Xi Molin secretly picked at his fingers, his eyes dark and serious: "Don't worry, I won't go back on my word. You helped my sister and got her into your company. As long as I can do it, I will never shirk my responsibility."

"Then it's a deal. Come find me after you graduate and convince your family..."

Mei Xiaofei was satisfied with the answer she wanted, and then stood up and gestured to the woman beside her: "Give her your business card."

The woman complied with her request, took out a business card from her pocket, and handed it to her.

When Schimerling accepted the business card, he exchanged a glance with the woman, as if a deeper meaning was being conveyed but quickly vanished.

She didn't quite understand what it meant, and her gaze was somewhat surprised.

Just as Mei Xiaofei was about to leave, she suddenly turned back to look at her: "That night you said your family members died tragically, may I ask why...?"

Xi Molin's heart clenched suddenly. He slowly looked up at her, the last glimmer of light in his eyes vanishing in an instant.

Those were wounds buried deep in her heart, too heavy and too painful, and she rarely mentioned them, even though she lived in Qizhou for several years.

On the night she searched for her sister, she wasn't actually as ruthless as she appeared; she was merely using her remaining past to create a fearsome facade.

She wanted to protect her sister's reputation and safety, and although she felt guilty towards her family, she did not regret it.

She stood up, lowered her head and gazed down, remaining silent for a long while.

Just when Mei Xiaofei thought she wouldn't tell her, her hoarse and heavy voice sounded as if she had endured countless winters.

"I was originally from Jiangyan, Sichuan. During the 2008 earthquake, I was the only survivor in my family. Later, my sister's family adopted me..."

The voice faded, and the short sentence conveyed an incredibly painful past.

Mei Xiaofei and the woman beside her were both slightly taken aback, their hearts also shaken.

That was a wound that would forever remain in Schimerlin's mind and body.

Over the years, the surface may have healed, but the inside is already empty. Perhaps her heart was already empty when she learned that her family was gone, but it was later filled up little by little by the Shu family.

Many years have passed since that devastating earthquake that shocked the nation, but the horrific scenes of that time remain deeply etched in everyone's hearts.

Mei Xiaofei never expected that the ordinary girl in front of her was actually a participant and a survivor.

Suppressing his inner pain, Xi Molin took two steps closer to Mei Xiaofei.

The sadness in her eyes was replaced by a pleading look. Her arms hung at her sides, and she clenched her thumbs and forefingers tightly to ease the surging tension: "Um... can I ask you for a favor?"

Mei Xiaofei quietly let out a breath, her eyes softening: "Go ahead and speak."

"My sister signed with your company today, which means she's officially entering the entertainment industry... Could you please not let her go through what happened that night when she was drugged? I'm worried she'll be taken advantage of by those bad people again..."

Schimerlin looked worried, her eyes revealing an anxiety beyond what someone her age would consider.

But in Mei Xiaofei's opinion, it was somewhat naive.

Her lips curled slightly, her gaze sharpening: "I understand the significance of what you're asking for, but I know perfectly well what an actor's most precious asset is. Today she signed with our company, but I can't guarantee that she'll get every role she wants in the future. In the entertainment industry, exchanging resources for each other is an unwritten rule. If she wants to keep a clean reputation, no one can force her. But if she's willing, then I won't stop her. Do you understand…?"

Her concise and insightful words clearly stated her position.

The entertainment industry is ever-changing, and often, just a little bit of luck can help someone climb to a peak that others can never reach in their entire life.
