Lin Wan paused, was silent for two seconds, then slowly took off the hat on her head.

Lian Zian looked over, his eyes suddenly widened, and his pupils contracted violently.

Under the frame, Lin Wan's skin was as pale as paper, her eye sockets were sunken, her eyeballs were red and bloodshot, and she looked extremely haggard.

Is this still the beautiful and elegant Lin Wan that Lian Zian knows?

"Sorry, I lost my composure." Lin Wan apologized in a low voice, looking embarrassed, and put her hat back on.

"Your skin is so bad." Lian Zian said softly.

Lin Wan curled her lips bitterly: "The workload has been quite heavy recently."

After saying that, she closed the door.

Lian Xi was stunned for a long time before he looked away.

She turned around to leave, but saw Lian Zian still standing outside the door.

"Why don't you leave?" Lian Xi asked casually.

"I..." Lian Zian pursed his lips and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about."

Hearing this, Lian Xi frowned: "I'm very busy now and don't have time to chat with you. Besides, this is not something worth discussing. We don't have to waste each other's precious time."

"No, I must explain this to you clearly." Lian Zian insisted.

"You say." Lian Xi nodded.

"I know you can empathize with Lin Wan's experience, but I hope you can respect her choice. I have known her for a long time. Although she is a loner, she is upright and honest in her dealings with others. She will not betray her friends."

"I understand what you said," Lian Zian said, "I'm just worried that you will misunderstand her because of this incident."

"No," Lian Xi said firmly, "I know who she is better than you."

"That's good."

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Ah."

Lian Zian waved to Lian Xi and walked away with big strides.

the other side.

Lian Xi had just gotten into his sports car when he received a call from Lu Sili.

"Hello." She picked up.

"Are you sure you want Lin Wan to be the first person signed by Lu Group to enter the entertainment industry?" Lu Sili's voice was a little solemn.

"Well, I've already told her." Lian Xi said.

"Do you know what you are doing?" Lu Sili asked again.

"I know," Lian Xi told him frankly, "I believe in my eyes. Lin Wan will not do anything to let me down, so I am willing to push her to the front, at least to clear her of the grievances."

Lu Sili was silent for a long time, and then he reminded her helplessly, "Xixi, don't forget that our Lu Group signed a ten-year contract."

"Of course I know this," Lian Xi smiled, "I didn't expect to terminate the contract in one go."

"So, you want to use this opportunity to push Lin Wan onto the screen and make her an artist of the Lu Group?"

"Yes. Among the dramas our company has invested in recently, there is a costume idol drama that just happens to lack a leading actress with good acting skills. If Lin Wan joins, she should be able to get the leading actress with her strength." Lian Xi explained.

"You trust Lin Wan so much, aren't you afraid of being deceived by her?"

"She's not that kind of person," Lian Xi said firmly, "Besides, we're already so familiar with each other, there's no need for her to lie to me."

"It's easy for you to say that. Have you ever thought about what if Lin Wan is really such a person?"

"She would never be."

"How can you be sure? What if you are wrong?"

"If it's really a mistake, then it's my fault. After all, she once saved my brother, and I can't repay kindness with hatred."

Lu Sili was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "I know you already have a plan in mind, and I can't change your decision. But remember, if there is any disturbance, call me immediately."

"Okay." Lian Xi smiled.

The next day.

Lian Xi arrived at the agreed coffee shop, which had a quiet environment and was suitable for drinking coffee and chatting.

When she arrived, Lin Wan had been waiting for a long time.

Lin Wan was still wearing simple clothes, her hair was slightly wet, obviously she had just taken a shower.

"You're here." Lin Wan raised her eyes, looked at Lian Xi and said, "Please sit down."

Lin Wan is 29 years old this year. Her mother died during childbirth. Her father has not cared about her since she was a child and just left her to be raised by her uncle.

Uncle was an honest man, and the relationship between him and aunt was not good, and could even be described as indifferent. Uncle treated her more like a stranger, so Lin Wan rarely went back after she grew up.

"I ordered two cups of coffee. Would you like anything else to eat?" Lin Wan asked.

"Not for now, thank you," Lian Xi picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Lin Wan looked at her quietly with a faint smile on her face.

"Lian Xi, I heard that you wanted me to play the role of the heroine this time, and you also asked someone to help me set up the role, so I came." Lin Wan looked straight into Lian Xi's eyes.

"I did look for someone, but I was only responsible for the contact. Casting and auditions were all handled by others." Lian Xi said, then paused and continued: "As for why I chose you as the heroine... there are three reasons."

"Oh?" Lin Wan raised her eyebrows.

"First, you are beautiful; second, your acting skills are great; third, you and I are classmates and we have a close relationship, so we can be considered friends. More importantly, I think you can do it." Lian Xi said concisely.

"Well, after hearing your reasons, do you think I should accept the invitation?" Lin Wan asked back.

"Of course!"

Lian Xi's expression was serious.

"Okay, then I agree." Lin Wan nodded readily in agreement.

Seeing this, Lian Xi was surprised. He didn't expect Lin Wan to agree so readily.

"Lin Wan, thank you for your willingness to help me." Lian Xi looked at her sincerely.

Lin Wan pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't get me wrong, I agreed to help because I admire you, not just for the resources you have."

"I won't tell anyone about this, including people in the company." Lian Xi promised solemnly.

"I believe you."

Lian Xi and Lin Wan have known each other for a long time. They are both bold girls, so they chat without any scruples. They chat about the future and the bright prospects. Before they know it, they have finished the whole pot of coffee.

"Let me take you home." Lian Xi put down the empty cup, stood up and said to her.

"Okay." Lin Wan nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

Before leaving, Lian Xi reminded: "Lin Wan, remember, don't tell anyone about this."

"I understand. Thank you, Lian Xi." Lin Wan smiled at her and turned away.

After the two parted, Lin Wan took a car directly home. On the way home, Lian Xi received a call from Lu Sili, who said that there was a dinner party in the evening and asked her to return to the old house to attend.

After hanging up the phone, Lian Xi went straight to the old house.
