From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

However, the other party didn’t reply to her message until midnight, which made her feel frustrated. Thinking about tomorrow’s audition, her mood wasn’t very good.

On the other hand, Lan Huixin went to bed early, ready to conserve energy for tomorrow’s audition.

“The wind has changed suddenly this time, and there’s no backlash. No room for the water army I hired. Hey, the audience’s tastes have become more and more peculiar.” Huang Chao laughed as he browsed the Weibo comments, not even needing any manipulation.

“By the way,” Huang Chao suddenly remembered something important, straightened up, and looked at the man lifting weights on the balcony.

“Director Yu’s team contacted me and wants to invite you to be the music director for their new film. I didn’t agree directly, but will you do it? ”

It’s common for singers to be a music director for films in the entertainment industry. After all, Director Yu was a top 3 most famous and innovative director in China. Many singers had been eager to work with him in the past. However, Qu Feitai has always turned all the offers down, as most of them just want to exploit his popularity to gain exposure.

But this time, Director Yu’s team directly reaching out to Qu Feitai was quite unexpected.

“Could it be because of Master Lin Huan’s relationship? His disciple is part of Yu Dawei’s indispensable team, but since Yu Dawei took a break for seven years, his people had to make a living as well. Since this time Master Lin Huan couldn’t make it, he recommended you to Yu Dawei after your collaboration?” Huang Chao merely speculated, as Qu Feitai and Yu Dawei had no connection at all—Yu Dawei had already retired from the industry when Qu Feitai had not even debuted yet.

Qu Feitai put down the barbell and picked up a towel to wipe the sweat off his face.

Huang Chao swallowed involuntarily, his eyes fixed on that perfect figure.

The young man was wearing a black tank top, revealing his broad shoulders and narrow waist. Toned muscles glistened under the light, and beads of sweat looked like droplets of dew on a peach, tempting and enticing.

The broad and tight shoulders gave a sense of security. Following the contour of the chest downward, the waistline appeared fluid and beautiful with faintly visible abs, which aroused adrenaline.

Huang Chao covered his nose, wondering if the young man was planning to outdo fitness coaches with his fantastic physique and continue working out. Was he aiming for the sky?

With long strides, Qu Feitai walked inside, pouring a glass of water and gulping down a few mouthfuls.

His Adam’s apple moved up and down as he swallowed, and a few droplets of water rolled down from his chin, down his neck and chest, looking very tempting.

Huang Chao coughed and quickly looked away, feeling that this was a test of his self-control.

“Form is emptiness, emptiness is form…,” Huang Chao muttered in his heart.

“Let’s do it,” Qu Feitai agreed after finishing his water.

“I knew you would say yes. Director Yu’s films always have quality assurance, and it’s a win-win collaboration,” Huang Chao said, dispelling the notion of one party chasing the other’s popularity. Both of them had their own fan base and influence.

“But, you have no experience in film music production, and you are also preparing your new album. Will you have enough time?”

“We only need the music video for the new album…,” Qu Feitai mentioned, his grip on the cup tightening while his pupils slightly constricted.

Huang Chao asked: “Have you picked the actors for the music video?”

Qu Feitai remained silent.

Huang Chao called Director Yu’s team back, stepped onto the balcony to speak briefly, and then returned. “There’s an audition tomorrow morning, and Director Yu’s team invited you to go. Film music is different from singles—it must be closely related to the background, characters, and fate of the film, so you need an in-depth understanding of the core theme. Go to the audition tomorrow to get a feel for it, and see if you can find the female lead for the music video. After all, the ones auditioning tomorrow are the top actors and rising stars in the entertainment circle.”

Qu Feitai frowned.

Seeing that he didn’t want to go, Huang Chao reluctantly persuaded, “My dear young master, as a musician, we mustn’t be too self-constrained. By communicating with filmmakers, you might be inspired by some unique ideas. If you’re always immersed in writing music at home, your creativity will dry up sooner or later.”

At this moment, the phone charging on the table rang. Qu Feitai walked over and took a look.

Group name—Sudden Strike Squad.

Who says Bai Kaishui has no taste: @Xiao Qu’er @Mr. Song @Jiang shui Biyutian, I just watched Xiao Qu’er’s new variety show out of boredom, and I fucking exploded. How could you bear that Ms. Xu? She’s just dragging you down.

Mr. Song: Little Bai, aren’t you someone who never watches Xiao Fei’s variety shows? Could it be that our Xiao Fei is just that charming?

Jiang shui Biyutiain: …

Qu Feitai: Hehe.

Who says Bai Kaishui has no taste: @Xiao Qu’er I will hehe your head! Only I can bully my brother; whoever dares to bully him is my enemy.

He posted a screenshot of a Weibo ID spewing insults, Ms. Xu was trending on Weibo, and this ID gained a lot of attention from fans, as well as a huge wave of new followers.

Mr. Song: Forget it, she just wants popularity, stop paying attention to her, Little Bai. My grandma was still talking about you this afternoon. She made your favorite spring rolls. Won’t you come over tomorrow? She misses you.

Who says Bai Kaishui has no taste: Sigh, being so popular since childhood has always been a puzzle to me.

Mr. Song: Err…

Xiao Qu’er: Chunxi Court’s reputation is well deserved.

Jiang shui Biyutian: Laughing emoticon.

Who says Bai Kaishui has no taste: @Xiao Qu’er Are you itching for a fight again? Let’s settle it over at the Songs’ place tomorrow!

Mr. Song: We all know who’s the hen and who’s the rooster (giggles).

Jiang shui Biyutian: Hehe.

Xiao Qu’er: I’m busy tomorrow. I’ve accepted a movie…

Exclamations followed!

A top singer is going to transition into films? This is definitely explosive news.

Xiao Qu’er: I’ll be working as a music director. Tomorrow is my first day on the job.

Mr. Song: Little Fei, you’re amazing (thumbs up), your career is thriving.

Jiang shui Biyutian: Your career is getting better and better; I’m happy for you, brother.

Bai Kaishui took a while to react, and Qu Feitai hurried Huang Chao away to take a shower.

After the shower, Bai Kaishui @ him: Don’t tell me it’s Yu Dawei’s movie.

Mr. Song: What? Yu Dawei? Isn’t he your cousin, little Bai?

Jiang shui Biyutian: Director Yu’s films are of good quality; you’re really flying high, Little Fei.

Xiao Qu’er: @Bai Kaishui It is indeed your cousin.
