A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

"Sister Meng?"

Gu Yun finally saw the woman's face clearly; it was none other than Meng Ziyi, who was also a guest on this episode.

She wore a layered red tulle dress, exposing her long, slender, snow-white legs to the air, while her long, textured black hair cascaded down, covering her delicate shoulders.

Her softly shaped oval face gives off a sense of distance, but her full apple cheeks when she smiles make her look lively and sweet.

Gu Yun's impression of her was that her beauty and her tone of voice were inversely proportional; she was a "silly beauty who talked faster than she thought."

"That's right, it's me!"

Meng Ziyi smiled sweetly: "When I arrived at the hotel, the staff said you were already there, so I came to find you."

She walked slowly in her skirt, and Gu Yun took the initiative to greet her: "Sister Meng, is there something you need from me?"

Gu Yun didn't recognize Meng Ziyi; this was their first meeting.

"It's so boring being alone in the hotel~" Meng Ziyi finally reached Gu Yun's side, looked Gu Yun up and down, and her eyes lit up:

"You're this handsome even without makeup!"

[Stunning Beauty +1]

"It's alright, Sister Meng looks great too."

Okay, Gu Yun thinks this guy is a total social butterfly, a social terrorist!

"Well, doesn't my outfit look familiar?"

Meng Ziyi proudly raised her chin, lifted her long skirt, twirled around, and looked at Gu Yun expectantly.

"Hmm, it does look familiar, but I can't quite place it."

"Oh dear, this color is the same as the one in your Douyin video." Meng Ziyi frowned slightly. "Is it that hard to tell?"

Gu Yun: "...It's just that the color is the same. A normal person couldn't figure it out even if they racked their brains."

"Haha, I forgot about that."

Meng Ziyi covered her mouth and laughed for a while, then remembered something: "By the way, Gu Yun, have you received the script for [Ninefold Purple] yet?"

"received."

"You're playing the crown prince, right?"

Gu Yun was somewhat surprised: "Sister Meng, how did you know?"

"Hmph~ Of course I know!"

Meng Ziyi put his hands on his hips and smiled smugly, "Because I recommended you!"

After chatting with Meng Ziyi for a while, Gu Yun finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that Meng Ziyi is the female lead of "Ninefold Purple". She is currently in the upper-middle tier of the second tier, and the male lead she is paired with is Li Yunrui.

Li Yunrui is a newcomer actor who emerged from the worst film of the year, "The Investiture of the Gods".

To put it nicely, he's a third-tier male star with the potential to become a breakout star; to put it bluntly, he's no different from Gu Yun.

The only difference is that they actually studied acting and even gained experience in films directed by famous directors.

It's definitely better than Gu Yun's resume, who's not in the entertainment industry.

Meng Ziyi said that the roles for this drama were almost all decided at the beginning, and filming was about to begin.

But later, Director Zeng discovered that the actor who was paid to play the supporting role [Zhu Yousheng] really didn't have the right temperament, and his appearance was too awful.

The drama "Ninefold Purple" is positioned as an ancient costume political intrigue drama, and the soul of the entire drama is supported by the Crown Prince "Zhu Yousheng".

Director Zeng Qingjie decided to replace the actor, but it was just a minor role with only a few minutes of screen time, and a large-scale interview would be too much trouble.

Finally, they asked Meng Ziyi and others to recommend some suitable candidates.

Someone recommended Ye Zuxin, who once had a glorious career and was Jiang Xin's ex-boyfriend, but now he doesn't have many acting opportunities. His acting skills are definitely not a problem.

Meng Ziyi came across Gu Yun's video and thought Gu Yun's temperament was very suitable, so she sent the video to the director.

After watching the video, Director Zeng chose Gu Yun, who had an outstanding temperament and a considerable amount of popularity.

Ye Zuxin, who had originally arranged to audition, was politely declined.

"Shouldn't you thank me?" Meng Ziyi raised an eyebrow and smiled smugly.

"Thank you, Sister Meng," Gu Yun said.

The character 【Zhu Yousheng】is really outstanding.

It was definitely enough for Gu Yun to step into the world of historical romance dramas, and he was truly grateful to Meng Ziyi.

"You've already called me 'sister,' so what else is there to say? We're friends!"

After adding each other as WeChat friends, Meng Ziyi and Meng Ziyi chatted about some gossip.

Around 5 PM, Gu Yun figured the other guests would be arriving soon, so he went back to the hotel with Meng Ziyi.

Sure enough, a short while later, the first regular guest of 【Departure 2】arrived, Shen Teng, wearing sunglasses and carrying a small suitcase.

Shen Teng is one of the few actors in the Chinese entertainment industry to join the 10 billion yuan box office club, and he has a blockbuster movie every year.

She is a darling of the big screen.

"Hello, Brother Teng!"

Gu Yun and Meng Ziyi went up to greet them.

"Wow, what a beautiful lady and what a handsome young man! You're here so early!"

Shen Teng's "performative" surprise made Meng Ziyi burst into laughter, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

[Stunning Beauty +1]

"I arrived this morning, on the same flight as Director Wang."

Gu Yun took Shen Teng's suitcase and walked inside. Noticing the confusion in Shen Teng's eyes, he introduced himself:

"My name is Gu Yun. Brother Teng, you can call me Xiao Gu or by my name. I used to be a stand-up comedian, and now I'm preparing to try my luck in the entertainment industry."

"Wow!" Shen Teng exclaimed happily, "We're about the same! I used to do stage comedies. You're such a spirited young man, you'll definitely make it!"

[Stunning Beauty +1]

"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Teng." Gu Yun already liked Shen Teng quite a bit, but now he likes him even more, and his proficiency with him is skyrocketing.

"Me too, me too!" Meng Ziyi said like a kindergarten child, "Brother Teng, my name is Meng Ziyi, we know each other before."

"I know you, Ziyi. We played King of Glory together," Shen Teng cleared his throat. "I'll never forget your 0/8 Luban."

Hahaha~~

Meng Ziyi blushed deeply; she was the kind of person who was both naive and playful: "Brother Teng, please don't say it, it's so embarrassing!"

"What's there to be ashamed of?" Shen Teng laughed.

"So when you picked Lu Ban five times in a row and got 0/8 every time, you didn't feel ashamed at all. Now you feel ashamed?"

"Brother Teng~~~" Meng Ziyi covered her ears, her oval face blushing.

"Haha, let's not talk about you anymore. Let's talk about Xiao Gu. Do you play King of Glory too?"

Shen Teng is very skillful. When he's with young people, he talks about things that young people like to do, so there's never a dull moment.

"It's alright," Gu Yun said.

"How good is 'okay'?"

"That's about the level of a 50-star King of Glory player."

This isn't Gu Yun bragging; his predecessor even won several national championships, so Gu Yun's abilities are quite impressive.

"Oh?" Shen Teng's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a treasure: "Hey bro, hey, are you free tonight? How about we play duo queue together?"

"no problem!"

Meng Ziyi tugged at Gu Yun's sleeve: "Me too, me too, let's line up in the third row~"

Shen Teng turned to look at Meng Ziyi and laughed, "Taking you along? Little Gu, can you even fly if you're carrying your 0/8 Meng sister? Probably not!"

Meng Ziyi blushed. She knew she was terrible at it, but she just loved to play. Her bright eyes gazed expectantly at Gu Yun.

"Gu Yun~ You'll take care of me, right?"

Gu Yun laughed and said, "If Sister Meng doesn't play Lu Ban, it should be fine~"

[Master of Rants +1]

"Hahaha~~" Shen Teng patted Gu Yun on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

Meng Ziyi glared at Gu Yun angrily, "Don't you think that short-legged Lu Ban is quite a contrast to me?"

Gu Yun nodded: "It's quite a contrast. Even Lu Ban didn't expect that such a beautiful girl would always let herself die so tragically."

Meng Ziyi raised an eyebrow: "Gu Yun!"

Shen Teng ran away carrying the suitcase, almost tripping and falling on a step: "Hahaha~~ Xiao Gu, I'm running first, you have to survive!"
