Chapter 296: Invitation for the Venice Film Festival

Yun Xiangxiang had always been a goody-two-shoes . Her parents had groomed her into an upright lady . She was also a reserved person . Spewing her drink was out of character, so that piqued Li Xiangling’s curiosity .

Song Meng stopped fighting with Li Xiangling . She looked at Yun Xiangxiang excitedly . “Come on, tell us . I want to know too . ”

“It’s nothing . ” Yun Xiangxiang shared it with her friends since it wasn’t anything worth keeping a secret .

Song Meng guffawed when Yun Xiangxiang finished telling what happened . “I want to see the look on Faye’s face at that moment . ”

Song Meng could hold a grudge . Faye tried to use them to attack Yun Xiangxiang today, planning to turn her and Li Xiangling against Yun Xiangxiang . That was stupid . Faye knew nothing about them .

Faye’s plan backfired . Song Meng now hated her more . When she heard Faye getting humiliated, Song Meng was elated .

“It must’ve been quite the look,” Li Xiangling nodded . She could imagine it .

“Go to sleep,” Yun Xiangxiang said good night when she saw that her friends had cheered up .

The girls still had to go to work the next day . Yun Xiangxiang had to keep on filming . She was about to power off her phone when a message popped up . Wu Zhao sent it to the film’s group and tagged everyone .

[Wu Zhao: Venice is going to have a film festival near August’s end . Any one of you can go?]

[Sun Qiluo: Which part of the film festival is the film going to take part?]

[Wu Zhao: Best Picture, Film of The Year, Best Male Lead, Best Female Lead, Best Director…]

Wu Zhao made a list of the categories “The King’s Plan” would be taking part in . Everyone was excited, but Xiong Ao doused their flames of excitement .

[Xiong Ao: These are just possible categories . Even if we get nominated for every single one of them, we might still not win for any of them . That would be rather tragic . ]

[Wu Zhao: …]

Yun Xiangxiang pursed her lips and smiled . Wu Zhao was probably thinking of kicking Xiong Ao out of the chat group now . ]

[Yun Xiangxiang: I have time for that since it’s August . ]

Her classes wouldn’t start until September came . She would have been done with “First Love” and the selection for “Flying Sky” by then . She didn’t have anything better to do anyway, so she might as well go to expand her horizons .

She could go to the Xibai Film Festival in her past life thanks to her endorsement, but she didn’t have the chance to go to any international film festivals .

She didn’t think she would be awarded as the international best female lead, but she still wanted to see the Venice Film Festival’s glory . The competitors would be the best films in the world . Going there as a participant and going there as an ambassador for a product were two different things .

[Hou Cang: I won’t be going . I have a lot of matters to settle at home . ]

[He Xingzhou: I will be joining in the fun . ]

[Sun Qiluo: I want to go, but I just took a new job that needs me to start work in mid-August…]

Sun Qiluo was a supporting actress in “The King’s Plan . ” The best supporting actress was the most challenging award to get in international film festivals . Even if the film were acknowledged, the leads would get the awards first before the supporting actors were considered .

If the film weren’t acknowledged, the leads wouldn’t even be awarded, let alone the supporting cast .



Sun Qiluo wasn’t planning on going . She could get some attention by going to a red carpet event, but it wouldn’t be aired in the nation .

Sun Qiluo did have plans to go global, but she walked a different path from Yun Xiangxiang . She would focus on filming dramas first .


“Let’s hope Xiangxiang gets the best actress for a leading role award again!” Song Meng was excited at the news . Her sleepiness was blown away .

Yun Xiangxiang only smiled . If she spoke, it would take forever for Song Meng to shut up . Yun Xiangxiang closed her eyes .

The girls went to their workplaces the next day . Qi Jun called Yun Xiangxiang at noon .

“I’m leaving Paris, but I have some people here . Go to the vineyard and seek them out if you need anything . I will be back in half a month . ”

“What luck . I managed to get you as my guardian right before your departure,” Yun Xiangxiang teased . “Now everyone knows I’m close to Young Master Qi . I don’t think anyone would dare trouble me . ”

Qi Jun laughed, “I’m glad that my noble lady acknowledges my prestige, but I think Song Mian’s prestige is a better one, no? About Faye, it’s been a few years since I last saw her . She has changed . A lot . You better keep an eye out while you’re in Paris . ”

When they met yesterday, Qi Jun noticed that the confident, gorgeous Faye had become a scheming, sly woman .

Faye spent a lot of effort pursuing Song Mian over the years, but she failed . Nobody knew Song Mian’s whereabouts, not even his father .

As Qi Jun didn’t know what the current Faye was like, he had to remind Yun Xiangxiang . He did have someone keep an eye out for her, and he did say he would come back quickly . But Yun Xiangxiang still had to stay for more than half a month, and she was on Faye’s turf .

“Come what may, I’ll face it head on,” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t care . She couldn’t prevent these from happening .



Nor did she have the time and resources to keep an eye on Faye . Even if she did, she might not know how Faye would attack . She wouldn’t waste her time worrying about this .

She had just ended the call with Qi Jun when Chloe called her, asking her out for tea .

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t have any filming to do in the afternoon . She wanted to stay back to learn from the crew . But since Chloe invited her, Yun Xiangxiang agreed to it .

Chloe chose a cafe in a remote area . When Yun Xiangxiang arrived at the place, Chloe seemed to have been waiting for a while .

“Their coffee is quite unique . I ordered a cup for you . Do please see if it’s to your liking . ” When Yun Xiangxiang sat down, a waiter served her a cup of coffee . Chloe gestured to him, telling the waiter to place the coffee cup in front of Yun Xiangxiang .

“There is no good or bad coffee for me . ” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know how to taste them .

Yun Xiangxiang had a weird trait in her past life . Coffee wouldn’t invigorate her . It would make her sleepier .

No matter the brand of coffee, it was the same for her . To keep working intensely, she chose to drink tea .

“Then try the pastry here,” Chloe suggested Yun Xiangxiang some desserts .

Yun Xiangxiang loved desserts . She had a few and thought they were decent . “I don’t think you’re asking me out just for tea, Miss Chloe . ”

“I’m sorry about yesterday,” Chloe was earnest . “I knew Faye in a club . ”

“You don’t have to apologize, Miss Chloe . You did not hurt me in any way,” Yun Xiangxiang wiped her mouth . ”



Yun Xiangxiang was the one curious about Chloe’s strange gaze . She was the one asking to meet Faye .

Chloe only neglected to remind Yun Xiangxiang when she knew Faye was about to attack her . Yun Xiangxiang didn’t mind .

She shared no relationship with Chloe . Their collaboration hadn’t even started . Chloe didn’t have any obligation to remind her .

“You are truly different,” Chloe praised earnestly .

Technically speaking, Chloe did nothing wrong . But Chloe had her principles . She didn’t remind Yun Xiangxiang even when she knew Faye was going to embarrass her . Not to mention she invited Yun Xiangxiang . Chloe felt guilty .
