Chapter 896: Chapter 896 Cheng Xining Comes Knocking

Shen Mianmian was also surprised. Logically, a lot of actors would want to act in his movies. The entertainment industry was never short of actors, and his way of searching for actors seemed too casual, picking someone right off the streets.

She admitted that she was indeed beautiful, but in this era, there was no shortage of beautiful girls.

However, since Lu Nian had left his business card, he didn’t seem to be joking.

Although she had no interest in joining the entertainment industry, if Yang Xiaoxi was interested, it might not be a bad idea. After pondering, she seriously asked, "Xiaoxi, do you want to act? This industry is very lucrative; once you become famous, the money you make is beyond your wildest dreams, more than you could ever spend. However, you need to think carefully. The industry is filled with all sorts of people, and if you decide to act, you’ll need to think three times before speaking. You can’t just say whatever pops into your head."

Because a single poorly spoken word could be blown out of proportion and used as a public spectacle.

Yang Xiaoxi’s eyes lit up at the mention of making a lot of money, but upon hearing the rest, she hesitated, "Mianmian, do you want to act?"

Shen Mianmian thought about it and shook her head, "I’ve never thought about acting before, and besides, I don’t think I have any natural talent for acting. Brother He probably wouldn’t agree either, so I’m not considering it for now."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoxi immediately shook her head decisively, "Then I won’t go either. I don’t dare to do it alone without you."

Shen Mianmian looked helpless, "Since when did you become so timid?"

"Mianmian, don’t be fooled by my usual joking manner. I’m actually very aware of many things. I’ve always been under your protection in Beijing, life has been too comfortable. I just want to cling to you and have you look out for me for a lifetime. Even finding a husband, having you support me in the background is more effective than having my own parents support me," Xiaoxi said.

Mianmian had Brother He behind her; Brother He was capable, and most people were afraid of him. He was also careful not to upset Mianmian, and since she and Mianmian were close, Mianmian would definitely stand up for her if she were bullied. So, Yang Xiaoxi felt that her life was at its peak with Shen Mianmian.

Shen Mianmian was somewhat speechless at her reasoning but felt a warmth in her heart.

"Alright, I’ll look out for you in the future. However, as for acting, it really is something to consider—it’s an opportunity that might not come again."

Yang Xiaoxi still shook her head, "You already said it, the film industry is treacherous. Without you, I’d probably be completely devoured. I’d rather just study well with you. Besides, if you end up doing well later, I can work under you and won’t starve to death."

"..."

Shen Mianmian helplessly shook her head, seeing that she really wasn’t planning on entering the entertainment industry, she let the matter go.

The two of them ate their candied haws as they walked home. Just as they reached the doorstep, they saw Cheng Xining kicking the door like a madman. Yang Xiaoxi, seeing this, was immediately infuriated and hurriedly approached to confront him fiercely.

"Cheng Xining, are you sick? Why are you kicking the door?"

"Get out of the way." Cheng Xining bypassed Yang Xiaoxi and charged directly at Shen Mianmian, pointing at her frantically and scolding, "Shen Mianmian, don’t think you can turn from a country chicken into a phoenix. I’m telling you, you are just an ugly duckling. Even if you put on beautiful feathers, you can’t hide the fact that you are an ugly duckling, just a country bumpkin."

"Cheng Xining, what’s gotten into you?" Shen Mianmian frowned at her, wondering if it was because she knew about the dinner at old Master He’s house, which is why she was so
