Chapter 1 - This character belongs to you

In the quiet audition field, the atmosphere was extremely tense.

The actors who came for the audition already took their scripts, reading it painstakingly for each and every second, like they were students desperately cramming before their exams.

Only Yu Qing Huan stood there without any emotion, with a blank and dull expression. Even the script in his hand, had drop to the ground without awareness. His action did not suit the current atmosphere at all.

Even so, there were quite an amount of women with blushing faces, secretly looking over at him.

The entertainment circle did not lacked any attractive people, but their beauty pales in comparison to Yu Qing Huan. His fine aquiline nose and exquisite eyebrow, together with a pair of exceptionally beautiful peach blossom eyes. His big eyes were bright with alluring black pupil, as if within lies a clear spring water, beautifully framed with long, thick eyelashes. When he gazed upon people with his slightly upturned lateral Canthus, with distinct and passion, it gave an indescribable feeling.

In addition to his beautiful figure, was his straight and elegant posture. As he stood there alone, it's impossible for onlookers to remove their line of sight away from him.

"Qing Huan, this is your very first battle into the entertainment circle, you must perform your very best!" Yu Qing Huan's Manager, Yu Xin was not in the mood to appreciate his own artist. He bent his waist and picked up the script, and stuffed it back into Qing Huan's hand. Yu Xin strongly encouraged Qing Huan again, "When it is your turn, you must not be nervous, alright? Just pretend that those judges does not exist!I will be outside cheering you on."

Yet, Yu Qing Huan just stood there staring blankly into nothingness, not a single response to his manager's advice.

Yu Xin did not felt that it was strange. He thought that Qing Huan was shocked silly by the scene in front of him. Yu Xin patted Qing Huan's shoulder and earnestly instructed him: "Qing Huan na, to judge whether or not if your starting point is good, it depends on this battle ah."

At this moment, Yu Qing Huan finally turned his head slightly. His eyes shot towards Yu Xin's face, and with a raspy voice he said, "Yu-Xin?"

It's as if Yu Qing Huan used all his might to utter these two short words, inexhaustibly difficult. Like an old machine that was finally oiled, noisily starting to turned.

"Oh my ancestors!" Yu Xin slapped his thigh. He felt extremely heartbroken by Qing Huan's negligence attitude towards his surrounding. Yu Xin couldn't take it anymore and pulled Qing Huan to a corner. He angrily snapped softly near Qing Huan's ear: "You better quickly compose yourself, the director will not care whether its your first time or not. I painstakingly manage to snatch this opportunity for you. If you miss this chance, you will lose it forever. You take a look at those who come for this audition, there are even several debuted supporting actors. You are a newbie, if you don't act well, how will you fight with others…"

Yu Xin was still nagging non-stopped near his ear. Yu Qing Huan took a step back, and leaned on the cold surface of the wall. With a disbelieving look, he slowly and carefully took his surrounding in. Then, suddenly he used his entire arm strength to pinch his own thigh.

A gut wrenching pain spread throughout his body. Yu Qing Huan shut his eyes, and slowly opened them again. The scenery in front of his eyes did not changed at all!

He got reborn! Really got reborn!

After reaching the peak of the entertainment circle, he got reborn to ten years ago when he just turned 21 years old. Reborn to the moment he entered the entertainment circle.

As for here, this place was the audition scene of the film, 'The Line of Life and Death'. The work of the famous director, Liu Jia An, accumulation of his 7 years aspirations.

This film used combat medic as its concept, so at a time where youthful romance was the hit, the film was looked at with veiled criticism. People were scornfully criticizing and ridiculing the movie behind closed door. Many said that Liu Jia An, had already lost his mind and could no longer followed the trend of the entertainment field.

When the film was released, many took Liu Jia An as a joke. They were waiting for his box office. Contrary to everyone's belief, even when 'The Line of Life and Death' had the least screen time, it ended up surprising everyone with its 5.5 billion dollars box office. It became the dark horse of the year. Even after the passage of several years, people couldn't help but to continue referencing the film.

Yu Qing Huan was auditioning for the supporting third male lead called Ye Shang, a young doctor with good family background.

Ye Shang became willfully arrogant because he grew up spoil rotten by his parents. He was also extremely greedy and deadly afraid of dying. Due to a mistake in the hospital name list, he was sent to the battlefield as an aid. In the process of a difficult situation, he began changing slowly. Finally in order to save a local girl, he was shot by a stray bullet and died.

The setting of the character was tall, rich and handsome. In addition to having good image and great style, the character was also a doctor with white coat as a uniform. Ultimately set a trend of new generation male god wearing uniform. Although in the beginning Ye Shang was unpleasantly unbearable, but the end was an unforgettable scene that painted an indelible mark. That scene made sure that after the audience finished watching, it would leaved an emotionally deep impression.

Nobody would dared to make noise, even if the film result was weak due to good established public relations and Liu Jia An's reputation. Precisely because of this, Yu Xin attached utmost importance towards Yu Qing Huan's current audition and made a point to accompany Qing Huan.

In his previous lifetime, Yu Qing Huan did came for audition, but he didn't pass.

The evaluation that Yu Jia An gave was: able to act, but not transparent enough.

Yu Qing Huan was exceptional since young. Although it was his first time entering the entertainment circle, he thought that he was capable enough to get chosen because of his proud and arrogant heart. Far from being picked, he even met his Waterloo here. Thus, his mentality became unstable, and almost got depressed. Qing Huan spent a very long time getting out from this unexpected slum.

Yu Xin was shocked by Qing Huan's action, and thought that he gave Qing Huan too much pressure. He hurriedly held Qing Huan's wrist. Using a gentle and careful tone, Yu Xin said, "Qing Huan, don't listen to my reckless babbling, just take this audition as a test to familiarize yourself in this entertainment circle, alright!"

Yu Qing Huan looked at Yu Xin's thoughtful care. His heart felt warm at Yu Xin gentle action. Qing Huan carelessly set his script on a nearby stool, and said: "Ge, let's go back, I don't think this character suits me."

In his last life, he had no regrets towards the entertainment circle. Any award that could be won, he had won. Qing Huan had starred in many different big hit movie and had actually gather a huge group of fans oversea.

Everyone that met him would respectfully called him Yu ge. His name could be counted as a famous household name.

The only imperfection in his life was that even though he was in the entertainment circle, he never had any lover! He didn't even have any ambiguous relationship with anyone.

Yu Qing Huan was naturally bent. After he entered the entertainment circle, there were eyes everywhere and everyone was waiting for his fall from grace. For the sake of his future, he listened to the company and manager. So Qing Huan kept a distance from everyone, he didn't dared to get too close, not even a bit.

Until his death, he became known as the entertainment circle famous old virgin! It was really humiliating for Yu Qing Huan. He wanted to find a hole and buried himself!

A short while after his rebirth, Yu Qing Huan decisively decided.

Fuck his image! Fuck his future! He painstakingly regained a lifetime, now all he wanted to do was to have one hell of a love!

Yu Qing Huan was no longer interested in walking the same path as he did during his last life. This time, any job that he can refused he would refused. He would minimized his appearance in the sight of public. He would wait for the expiration of his 5 year contract with the company and then quit immediately!

Anyways he had the look and a degree. In this life, he was not afraid of not being able to obtain any job.

He would looked for an adequate lover to settle down peacefully and normally, just like everybody else. This was Yu Qing Huan current biggest life goal!

Hearing what Qing Huan said, Yu Xin almost lost his soul: "What do you mean go back! Even if you are asked to act as a dummy today, you still have to act!" He thought his artist had stage fright, so Yu Xin silently pondered in his heart. He decided when he went back later, he must planned a schedule, or else how would they overcome from being blindsided by any momentary psychological impact.

"Ge, listen to me." Yu Qing Huan's voice was extremely pleasant with its clear tone, really soothing to the ears. His voice was like a balm, could calmed people down, "I am not afraid, it's just that yesterday I read and ponder the script thoroughly. Ye Shang, this person, in the beginning I could cope with forcefully. But in the later scene, with my present acting abilities, frankly speaking it's impossible."

Yu Qing Huan felt grateful towards Yu Xin. Even though the man was slippery, Yu Xin was very good to him. Seeing that Qing Huan had no mother or father, no matter what Yu Xin would be considerably more caring.

But Yu Qing Huan did not interacted with him for long. Several months after the audition for 'The Line of Life and Death', Yu Xin was sending a famous artist signed under him to an acting studio. He met an accident and died on the spot. Yu Qing Huan didn't managed to see him one last time.

Fortunately, now was the chance to redo everything one more time.

"Ge, I feel that the most important thing to do right now is more tempering, after my acting become more mature, it's still not too late, or else I might drag everyone down."

Yu Qing Huan said nonsensically with a serious demeanor.

"You don't give me sweet talks!" Yu Xin narrowed his eyes, his face oozed disagreement. This was a rare opportunity after all. Even if he was uncertain, but his heart still held a silver of hope.

Yu Xin display a face of indifference, but with Yu Qing Huan understanding, he keenly managed to capture a hint of doubt in Yu Xin's eyes. Qing Huan took an advantage while the iron is still hot, to earnestly persuade Yu Xin. He was too engrossed that he neglected the footsteps coming to him.

Yu Xin was persuaded until his heart was in a mess. He was in no mood to turn back towards the direction of the footsteps.

The two talked for a long time that Yu Qing Huan's throat almost dried up. Yet, he still couldn't move Yu Xin's heart.

There was only a few people left at the audition field, this was Yu Qing Huan last chance. He looked at the number in his hand. If this continued on, it would be his turn soon.

He could guaranteed that with his current acting skills, don't talked about the third male lead, the main male lead was also not a problem. So he cannot go for this audition. He had to be low key and slowly backed off the entertainment circle. This was his original intention.

Just as Qing Huan trying to exert more effort to move Yu Xin's heart, suddenly a voice of praise came from behind, "Not bad! Nowadays there are not many actors who can keep their initial intention ah!"

Yu Qing Huan and Yu Xin turned towards the voice and stopped simultaneously. The person who approached them was the director of 'The Line of Life and Death', Liu Jia An!"

Liu Jia An initially came out to take a breather. Most of the actors that came today have had their audition, but none of them made him felt satisfied! Either it a cunning, coquettish behavior, or a delicate small posturing deliberately acting strong and mighty, looking at those act made him felt disgusted.

"The Line of Life and Death" was a film that he meticulously prepared for many years. In order to have total full control, even the investors were screened and cautiously chosen, let alone the actors.

But he was aware that with his present charm as an outdated director, it would be impossible for the big fishes to come audition for the third male lead.

Inviting those with good acting skills was impossible and those that could were not what he wanted.

The more Liu Jia An thought about it, the more anxious he felt. He decided that there were no more need to see the later auditions. Just when he wanted to throw caution to the wind and tried to use his connection to find for an adequate substitute, he didn't expect to accidentally caught a conversation happening between Yu Qing Huan and Yu Xin.

The young kid had a great look and good temperament. The most important thing was that he wasn't corrupted by vanity and fame. Even if his acting skills was a bit weak, with him as mentor, he could taught him and brought him up. It's hundred times better to have a hardworking newbie without achievements than using a friendly connection to bring someone in.

In a split second, Liu Jia An made a decision.

He looked at Yu Qing Huan number plate and took in his overall look. When the conflicted Yu Xin tentatively opened his mouth to greet him, Liu Jia An suddenly said: "Acting cannot be learn behind closed door, following a good director is the most important of all."

After Director Liu cease talking for a while, he smiled and regarded:"I have been standing here listening for quite awhile. The little brat is transparent, free and sensible. It's suitable with Ye Shang's character setting in the later scenes. You don't have to audition, the role is yours."

Yu Qing Huan: "???"

Yu Xin:"!!!"
