She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

Pretending not to notice the other party's uncontrollable smile, Su Lingxi nodded calmly to indicate that he understood.

After a short silence, Joey asked again, "Will you return to China directly after the filming is finished next month?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, that should be the case." Realizing that he had no hostility, Su Lingxi's attitude softened.

Joey was slightly stunned, and his eyes stayed on her face for a long time before moving away.

He actually wanted to ask her when she would come to Paris next time.

But he hesitated again and again and still couldn't ask.

This sentence is so purposeful that it can easily expose his hidden thoughts.

Asking her "When will you come to Paris again?" is like asking her "When can I see you again?"

Joey didn't want to make his feelings clear so quickly, nor did he want to make himself look so pitiful and embarrassed.

He was once a young talent highly regarded by his family, so naturally he disdained to be a poor wretch begging for love from others.

He will use his own method and take it step by step.

The gaze from the side was too scorching. Su Lingxi continued to pretend not to see it while calling the system in her mind.

[Can you help check if [Joey Cox] is a capture target? ]

In less than a second, the system gave a reply: [After testing, [Joey Cox] is not one of the target players that can be conquered.]

Su Lingxi was a little confused and asked tentatively: [Isn't it said that all excellent and high-quality men will be judged as capture targets by the system? Which aspect of him...doesn't meet the requirements? ]

By observing the previous targets, Su Lingxi had already figured out the system's judgment rules - men who are rich and handsome or have strong abilities and high potential will all be judged as targets.

As for morality and character, the system doesn't seem to care much.

According to past rules, Joey Cox meets the system's requirements in every aspect and should be considered a target for capture...

System: [Your question is beyond the scope of the system's knowledge. Sorry, we can't provide any advice.]

Beyond the scope of knowledge?

Su Lingxi frowned, his thoughts running towards another possibility.

She was accidentally bound to the [Misfortune System] after she traveled into the book. Does this mean that the scope of this system is limited to the content of the original novel?

Zheng Yanran, Xie Mingyu, Bian Xu... Although Su Lingxi couldn't remember whether these characters had appeared in the original novel, they were all "well-known figures" in the Chinese entertainment industry and were in the same industry as the original heroine Xia Yuqing. Even if their specific names did not appear, they must be people in the same circle.

But Joey Cox is different.

The original novel focused on the love story of the male and female protagonists, and only briefly mentioned the careers of the two. It was limited to domestic entertainment and did not expand to the whole world.

Therefore, characters like Eva, Joey, and Simon are all new characters that are not included in the original novel and are derived from the world line.

Perhaps, the world of novels, like Xia Yuqing, will be influenced by her and develop "self-awareness".

This would explain why Joey could not be judged as a target to be captured.

After brainstorming, Su Lingxi figured out the possibilities and stopped wasting energy on it.

Anyway, in her eyes, Joey Cox was just an impolite and brainless young man, far from being a high-quality man.

She didn't care what he felt or thought about her.

Finally, when the young master looked at the door for the nth time, Selina came in hand in hand with a tall blonde girl.

Su Lingxi blinked, inexplicably feeling that the latter's facial features looked somewhat familiar.

It seems to be someone I met at the closing ceremony of the Berlin Film Festival...

Ah, I remember now - she should be the American female director who was highly appreciated by Maren Blokemper and finally won the Best Director Award.

The name seems to be, Liv Morton?

"Dear Nicole, happy birthday." Before she could think any more, Liv Morton kissed her warmly on the cheek. "You are really God's favorite. You can handle any style of dress so well, right? You look really great tonight."

Su Lingxi smiled generously, "Same to you. I heard that Feel the Presence of Love achieved very good box office results in Europe. Everyone is looking forward to your next work."

"Really? I thought it was just an old, whiny movie for you young people."

"Of course not. This is an undisputed classic. You know, I felt very involved in the role of Samantha. She is a woman with a strong inner core. I aspire to be like her."

"Okay, Nicole, I have to admit that you are a sweet-talking girl. Just a few words of yours made me feel very happy." Liv looked at her for a few seconds, then smiled at each other.

In social situations, this trick almost always works - when you compliment someone, you have to be specific, and it's best if what you say has substance.

Everyone is tired of hearing the same old false flattery. Only half-true and half-false flattery can achieve the greatest effect.

"Wow, Cox, are you standing here trying to join our private conversation?" Selina adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, glanced up and down at Joey, and said in a drawling voice.

Joey, who was about to exchange a few friendly words with them, suddenly froze and his face turned ugly.

Fortunately, the eldest young master did not lose his temper on the spot. He just whispered something to her and then left angrily.

Seeing this, Selina laughed, "Nicole, am I seeing this right? When did you and him become able to have little secrets?"

Su Lingxi shrugged helplessly: "Come on, Selina, he just asked me to remember to get the birthday present, aren't you thinking too much?"

Selina smiled without saying anything and gave her a meaningful look.

Liv was still watching from the side. Su Lingxi didn't dwell on the topic too much. She turned around and led the two of them into the hall.

"I heard from Mia that you are worried about your next film after "Paris at Night"?" Liv looks like a lively girl who is always smiling, but she is actually very efficient. She brought the topic back on track in just one sentence. "Do you have any concerns about the subject matter of the film? As far as I know, many directors have extended olive branches to you recently."
