7 Headache
They ended up getting Liu Feihong's boyfriend, Jiang Cheng to come so he could drive the girls to a nice restaurant off-campus.
Xia Minghua drove the rest of his buddies.
"Wow, if not for today, I would not know that there was such a nice restaurant over here. Broke college students like us could never afford this." Liu Feihong complained while admiring the authentic Japanese-style interior.
"Mmm, don't worry. Third Brother's family owns it, we eat here for free all the time." One of Xia Minghua's friends finally spoke up.
A collective gasp came from the Idiot Trio.
"Not only is he really good-looking, his family has money. Money! Your favorite!" Chen Xiaoxiao squealed the obvious into her eardrum.
"It's not like it belongs to me, so why would I care?"
Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. This girl had no romantic prospects!
They ordered a private room, the females gathered on one side with the males on the other.
"That's Wang Jialong, Zhu Mingzhe, and Wu Zhiting. I'm Xia Minghua."
From left to right, the men being introduced each raised their hand.
Liu Feihong began to name the other side, "Wei Lina, Chen Xiaoxiao, Zhou Lengxin, my boyfriend, Jiang Cheng, and then fabulous me, Liu Feihong!"
Zhou Lengxin's sharp gaze landed on the four unfamiliar men, analyzing each of their features and traits.
Wang Jialong had striking features and was very tall, tan, and muscular. The one next to him, Zhu Mingzhe was the opposite: neat hair, wire-rimmed glasses, and superhuman metabolism, he was the classic description of a weak scholar. Wu Zhiting was clearly the goofball of the bunch.
And then there was the unattainable Senior Xia. Indeed, he was popular for good reason, with a face that celebrities yearn and strive for. She couldn't help but to question how then ended up eating together.
"Seniors, you guys all are graduating this year, right? How come you two call them 'Senior', you're in the same year!" Chen Xiaoxiao was quick to call out the two older women.
"He's our senior in looks and capability!" Wei Lina shamelessly declared.
"Hehe, Juniors or not, let's have a toast!" Wu Zhiting stood up and raised his beer.
'Good god, they're bringing out the alcohol.' Zhou Lengxin could feel a headache coming.
Amidst their cheers, Buzz's "Thorn" blasted from her bag.
"Excuse me, I need to take this."
In the hallway, she answered the call.
"Hello Director Ye, do you need something?"
"Here's the thing Miss Zhou, we're just about finalizing the cast and there's this newbie, Miss Zheng Hualian, who does not have an agency. I know this is not under your job description, however, under Producer Ye's heavy recommendation, we would like you to mentor her." Director Ye's tone was a bit skeptical, after all, all of his works won him numerous awards and fame. He had an extremely high standard of quality.
"Miss Zheng will be signing under X-Nation in a few days, I've sent you her contact information already. Please prepare for a staff meeting in Meeting Room 6 at 9:00 tomorrow. Good luck."
Not quite digesting what Director Ye had just informed her on, Zhou Lengxin stood frozen in the hall outside of their room.
'Mentor an amateur actress? What the hell? As if I don't have enough on my plate!'
She mentally breathed a sigh of relief that X-Nation's Japanese and Korean projects were postponed for a few months. Otherwise she'd be drowning in work!
But her relief slowly turned back into horror. Sure, she's taken musical theater and acting classes before, but not film acting!
'Argh, headaches!'
