“Your Sister Bei Bei is not bad.” Old Master Lu praised Su Bei for once. “However, that young man called Su Lu is the one I like the most!”

“Of course,” Lu Weijian replied while complaining in his heart. What was wrong with this old man? How could he bring up Su Lu at this moment?

“Isn’t Su Lu working at Nirvana Entertainment? I remember that you were the one who founded that company. Can you get Su Lu to come to our house as a guest?” Old Master Lu was deeply satisfied with Su Lu.

Lu Weijian, who was taking a sip of his drink, spat it out.

If the old man found out that he had quit and pushed the entire company to Su Bei, wouldn’t he get his legs broken?

Old Master Lu said unhappily, “Look at you. You’re so easily agitated.”

“It’s too hot,” Lu Weijian said.

“Didn’t you drink a cold drink?” Old Master Lu said disdainfully. “Is your brain frozen?”

Lu Weijian put down the cold drink in his hand. “Su Lu still has a lot of things to do. He won’t have time to be a guest in our home? Besides, he’s a young man. What can he say to you? Also, I’m still busy. Grandpa, I’m in a hurry. I’ll talk to you next time.”

With that, he slipped away faster than anyone else.

Old Master Lu was so angry that his beard curled up. “Can you learn from your brother and be more mature?”

Lu Weijian had already disappeared.

Old Madam Lu smiled and said, “You like that young man, but you don’t have to meet him, right?”

“I admire young people who have a sense of social responsibility. They abhor evil and help when they see injustice. Su Lu is just like when I was young!” Old Master Lu snorted. “If Weijian was half as good as him, I would live my days laughing. Why isn’t Su Lu my grandson instead?!”

“You already have Heting, Da Bao, and Gun Gun, yet you’re still so greedy!” Old Madam Lu rebuked.

…

After Xiao Ming was imprisoned, the Xiao family finally stopped causing trouble.

Xiao Ling and Xiao Xi could not keep hiding and got back to their lives.

Xiao Ling was still Xu Zhiqin’s assistant.

As for Xiao Xi, Su Bei realized that she was better at communicating and coordinating with others. She was extremely patient too. After asking for her opinion, she asked her to follow Yue Ze and be an intern manager.

Xiao Xi was grateful for such an opportunity and quickly took up her post.

Nirvana Entertainment was operating normally, and Su Bei began to accept scripts.

Qiao Mei sat opposite her and complained with a smile, “Su Bei, I thought you only cared about Nirvana Entertainment and didn’t want to act anymore. Look, there are a lot of scripts waiting for you. I’ve already picked some out.”

“Why are there so many?” Su Bei took it. Qiao Mei had already prepared the outline of each script for her so that she could quickly go through them.

“The movies you film are very popular. Coupled with Xiao Ming’s matter, the outside world thinks highly of you. Naturally, there are many people who want you to act in their works. However, many scripts and cast members aren’t worthy of you. I’ve already rejected those.”

Su Bei flipped through the remaining scripts. “The rest are either similar to the ones I’ve filmed before or… youth movies that don’t suit me very well.”

“If you don’t like any of them, you can rest for a while first.” Qiao Mei also knew that she had high standards. To Su Bei, it was a good thing to have high standards.

She had already become a goddess of the film industry and did not need to rely on ordinary movies to maintain her popularity.

“What’s this? It looks good.” Su Bei flipped through a few pages and was quickly attracted by the characters.

“This is a TV show script. You’ve never taken on a TV show before. I thought it seemed pretty good, so I wanted to show it to you.”

“I’ll think about it.” Su Bei picked up the script.

Qiao Mei did not object. Many things about Su Bei were not up to her to decide. Su Bei and Lu Heting had their own considerations.

At night, Su Bei brought back the script.

“A TV show?” Lu Heting glanced at it. “Are you planning to take on a TV show?”

“As long as the script is good and the team is suitable, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. What do you think?”

Lu Heting nodded. “I think so too. There’s no need to categorize good works or consider how they’re aired. Outstanding works will always gain the public’s attention.”

The two of them thought of the same thing and did not have many objections to this.

“It’s just that filming for TV shows is very rushed, and there are many late-night scenes. I’m afraid you’ll overwork yourself. Besides, you still have to manage Nirvana Entertainment.”

“Nirvana Entertainment is running very smoothly now. With Brother Yue Ze and Zhiqin supporting the company, they’re doing a good job. I don’t need to spend much effort. As for the night scenes, it’s not like I haven’t filmed them before. I’ll make time.”

Seeing that Su Bei was full of confidence, although Lu Heting could not bear to see her suffer, he was even more unwilling to dampen her thoughts. He nodded and indulgently said, “Okay, I don’t object to it.”

Su Bei put down the script. Lu Heting reached out and picked her up. “But you have to spend a lot of time with me tonight. I wonder if you’re up for it?”

“Yup, I am!” Su Bei smiled brightly.

…

Su Bei’s new TV show was called ‘A Tale of the Qin Dynasty’. It was a big production that talked about ancient history. The story was majestic and filled with cunning power struggles, showing the history and political style of the Qin dynasty.

When the contract was finalized, Su Bei quickly joined the set.

Li Junyu, who was acting as the male lead, was a top student with good acting skills. Moreover, he was currently a Ph.D. student at a top university. The outside world was very optimistic about Su Bei acting with him.

Su Bei joined the set with everyone having high expectations.

After a simple introduction session, they started filming.

It was Su Bei’s first time filming a TV show, so she was very humble. She knew that the methods practiced here would be different from when she was filming movies. She humbly asked the director and Li Junyu for advice.

Soon, she felt confident.

However, this confidence was shattered on the first official shoot.

In the first scene, Su Bei got 18 consecutive bad takes.

This had never happened in her career.

The high number of bad takes obviously affected the progress of the other artistes and staff.

The entire production team looked at her suspiciously.

The outside world claimed that Su Bei’s acting skills were good. The incident today made the production team second guess those claims as they looked at her suspiciously.

“Director, I want to rest first,” Su Bei said.

“Go ahead. You should figure out what are the right feelings to portray here.” The director looked at Su Bei regretfully.

Su Bei sat down, and Xiao Bai quickly brought her water. “I think your acting is fine. I wonder why the director keeps calling cut.”

Although Su Bei had not filmed for a while, she was still professional. Su Bei wondered what was the reason behind why this was happening today.
