Chapter 61 - Where Were You On Audition Day? (1)
The pressure was dangerously low inside the office and Jiang Chong, who was starting intently at the monitor, said solemnly, “Qi HongCheng had been calling non stop and looked very worried. Do you think something might have happened to Miss Chi?”
The moment that he heard that “something might have happened”, Lu JingYan shuddered and quickly clicked open an app with a black anchor icon.
Immediately, a large map of the city appeared on the screen.
Jiang Chong recognized that. On this map, they would be able to see exactly where Miss Chi was.
Startled, Jiang Chong stuttered all of a sudden, “Boss Lu… you… you… don’t you think this is a little wrong….”
Before he could finish what he was saying, the anchor had already popped up on the screen and the entire map was grey in color.
Lu JingYan said in a low voice. “Her phone is off…”
His magnetic voice became hoarse and tight from his change in emotions. The way it sounded could make one’s heart ache.
Jiang Chong was shocked and worried.
Lu JingYan, his face taut, quickly typed two messages into Wechat.
“Where are you?”
“Please reply back to me when you see this.”
Then, he dialed Qi HongCheng’s number without hesitation. “Did Chi Ying come for the audition?”
“Boss… Boss Lu..” Qi HongCheng turned pale the moment he saw the caller’s ID. His hand was shaking when he picked up the phone. “Miss Chi couldn’t make it today. I have arranged a separate time for her audition.”
In the surveillance video, Qi HongCheng was frantic and his steps were unsteady and patternless.
Lu JingYan changed the direction of the conversation right away. “She said that ahead of time?”
Qi HongCheng would not dare to disagree. “Yes.:
Lu JingYan sneered. “Ok, good.”
Qi HongCheng chuckled with a guilty conscience. “Don’t worry, Boss Lu…”
After their call, Jiang Chong shook his head. “This Qi HongCheng doesn’t seem very reliable.”
“I know that,” said Lu JingYan as he drummed his long and slender fingers softly on the table. Inside his dark eyes were the dangerous air of a predator. “Let’s wait and see.”
Jiang Chong felt sweat coming down from him.
Immediately following that, Lu JingYan said, “Look into all the other media companies and studios and their audition locations.”
He wanted to find out what audition could that that important that made her gave up the opportunity that he had arranged for her.

Shu Bai pushed open the door calmly but noticed that, at that very moment, Qi HongCheng was not looking at her.
He was distracted and his eyes unfocused.
His uncertainly demeaner made her turned a little bit pale.
Shu Bai bit her lower lip. A little bit at loss, she forced herself to refocus her attention.
Tragic plotline was her strong suit.
Better yet, it was more who she was than her acting.
She was intimidated and has an inferiority complex that was deeply rooted in her.
They were more intense and insane than another other normal person.
The kind of feeling that she was always stifled by others followed her like a nightmare since the moment she was born all the way until her adulthood.
She couldn’t tell where that feeling came from, but they doubtless shrouded over her entirely.
Qi HongCheng looked up and paused.
Shu Bai’s eyes were reddened and looked very attractive.
Her tears were rolling down uncontrollably like beads.
There were inferiority and unjust in her eyes and they were genuine.
That very moment, he couldn’t tell whether Shu Bai was just messing around the night before or that she was caught up in the pain from the night before right now.
All he knew was, his heart was aching.
Lu JingYan pushed back all of his meetings while he watched everything unfolded inside the audition room expressionlessly.
