Chapter 586: Can’t Steal The Spotlight Anymore

Whitey moved forward and waved her hand in front of those hollow, lifeless eyes.

“You can’t see?” she asked carefully.

“Yes, I can’t see,” the young lady answered with a gentle smile on her face. “I’m Ru Yin, what’s your name?”

The Little White Fox fiddled with her dirty clothes that were covered with dust. She then lowered her head and kicked a little stone on the floor.

“My name is Whitey.”

Director Jin was paying extra attention to both of their expressions.

The collaboration between these two great actresses was indeed remarkable.

Liang Chen did a good job in portraying the blind character, as she could really grasp the essence of the role, which was the lifelessness of her eyes. Yan Huan was performing really well too, especially in the tiny details that breathed life into her character.

It was really intense and exciting to film this scene where the characters of both experienced actresses first met. Those who would be watching the movie in the future would certainly enjoy it.

After that, the Little White Fox followed Ru Yin back home. However, if only one could reverse their regrets in life, then in Whitey’s case, she would have chosen to remain here for the rest of her life, or even drop dead then and there, instead of leaving with Ru Yin back then.

The consequence of leaving with her would nearly ruin Whitey’s entire life.

After some time, Whitey got to know that Ru Yin was the daughter of the county owner, but she was born blind.

Although she could not see, she had a very sensitive sense of smell.

Ru Yin told Whitey that there was a sweet scent on her body.

Whitey kept sniffing her clothes from time to time. She remembered that humans had always said that foxes had a specific odor, which was supposed to smell rank and unpleasant, but she could not smell it.

She could not help but guess that the so-called scent that Ru Yin mentioned… Could it be the foxy smell that she’s born with? But that smell should be stinky, how could it be a fragrance?

Anyway, Whitey had told Ru Yin, “Sister Ru Yin, Whitey is willing to be your eyes.”

Ru Yin smiled, but there was still no light in her hollow eyes.

Whitey had once thought that if she still had magic in her, maybe she could make Ru Yin see the world. However, she was just an ordinary human now. She had no way of doing it and there was nothing else she could do.

Yan Huan discussed the plot with Liang Chen at night. They were rivals and colleagues during the day, but they were best friends and sisters at night.

Liang Chen took great care of Yan Huan, and sometimes she would point out the flaws in Yan Huan’s acting. Meanwhile, Yan Huan really did learn a lot from Liang Chen, which would be beneficial to her for the rest of her life.

As for the reason why Liang Chen was not afraid of being replaced by Yan Huan, it was probably because Liang Chen was actually thinking of retiring. That was the cycle of this world, the experienced ones cultivating the talent of their potential successors to replace them one day.

There would be a lot more people who would surpass her in the future. Although she had many friends in this circle, she had many enemies as well.

Instead of letting her enemies surpass her, she would rather let Yan Huan be the one to take her place. A good movie was the only thing Yan Huan lacked currently to get an international award like hers.


Besides, she was still very young, at mere 25 years old this year. She had plenty of opportunities and a long way to go.

“Do you really see her as your successor?”

Qi Haolin walked toward Liang Chen and sat beside her.

Liang Chen put down the script in her hands and said, “I don’t want to do this anymore, and I’m starting to feel tired in recent years. Isn’t it a good thing for our country’s actors to go international? Why can those foreigners earn our money while we can’t earn theirs?”

While speaking, she twisted her ring gently around her finger.

“If there is a day where we can come out with a film that could dominate the international box office, would you be proud of that honor as well?”

Qi Haolin thought of those famous movies that were ranked top 100 internationally, noting that none of those movies were local productions. Those foreign movies dominated the box office and the ranking charts in the country, earning so much of their citizens’ money.

When he pondered over it, he realized that he disliked this phenomenon.

“Do you think that she has the ability to do that?”

Qi Haolin extended his fingers and brought up a small loop of Liang Chen’s hair, putting it near his nose. He liked the fragrance of her hair very much. He suddenly felt that he was getting old too, and was starting to think about retiring with Liang Chen. He had been working in this industry long enough. Once he retired, he would never come back again.

Liang Chen leaned her head on Qi Haolin’s shoulder.

“I’m not sure whether that’s possible, but we can hope for the best. If she really can make it one day, I will be so proud of her.”

“You won’t be jealous?” Qi Haolin asked as he smiled softly. He still looked as young and handsome as ever.

“Do I look like I will?” Liang Chen pointed at her own face and said, “I’ve never tried to steal her spotlight since the beginning. Even if I want to do so now…” She shrugged helplessly and let out a soft sigh.

“I can’t steal her spotlight anymore.”

There was humor and self mockery in her words, but they were more like self-entertainment. To be frank, there was also a little bit of jealousy present, but she had already let it go.

Meanwhile, Yan Huan had no idea that Liang Chen was expecting so much from her. Instead of getting number one, she cared more about making a good movie, getting good appraisals, earning more money and starting to construct the tower.

All she was thinking about was either the film or money, money and money.

She really was going insane for this.

That was why she was not on the same level as Liang Chen. Liang Chen was pondering over how to win glory for the country, but all Yan Huan could think of was money.

From this point of view, Yan Huan was indeed realistic.

On the second day, she woke up early in the morning. She was very strict on herself, to the point where it could even be described as abnormal. She had no rest day and she never allowed herself to relax.

She was always the first one to reach the set among the filming team and the last one to go back. It was as though she never felt tired. Sometimes, even Zhou Zizhe was unable to keep up with her, which made him recognize how formidable Yan Huan was. She was the most hardworking woman he had ever seen. And she’s a woman, a woman! Could she be a man impersonating a woman?

“Ready, set, action.”

Director Jin would repeat these three words countless times every day.

They would then start their daily work upon hearing that.

The Little White Fox was hiding behind a big pillar as it stretched its little head out, staring at the two men who were sparring with each other. One of them was in black, another one in purple, and they were like a collision of light and darkness, ice and fire, scattering magnificent sparks everywhere.

When both of them landed in front of Whitey, she felt her heart start to pound. The smile from the man in purple was like a budding plant, its roots reaching toward the softest part deep down in her heart.

She laid her hand on her chest, feeling her heartbeat racing.
