Gu Panxia excitedly told Pei Xiao about the actors she had seen and knew. She was surprised to see some of their names as contestants. Pei Xiao nodded from time to time to agree with Gu Panxia and search for her own name.

"Xiaoxiao, you are here!"

Gu Panxia pointed at an electronic screen on the wall and shouted excitedly.

Pei Xiao looked in the direction of her finger and saw her name, but she immediately became confused.

"What is this for?"

Gu Panxia tilted her head, with curiosity glittering in her eyes, and asked:

"I'm not sure either..."

Pei Xiao thought for a moment. Now there were only her and Gu Panxia in the passage, and they had no one to ask for help.

After careful observation, she noticed a small handprint under the electronic screen, which corresponded exactly to the position under her name.

Pei Xiao thought about it thoughtfully, then carefully placed his hand on the handprint and pressed lightly.

Instantly, a green light flashed on the screen, followed by a line of words: "Actor Pei Xiao signed in successfully." At the same time, the platform in front slowly rose, revealing a delicate little ball.

"It's so magical!" Gu Panxia exclaimed.

Pei Xiao picked up the ball and looked at it carefully. He saw that the surface of the ball was smooth and delicate, and the number 24 was engraved on it.

When they saw these numbers, Pei Xiao and Gu Panxia looked at each other and knew very well that this should be the order of today's casting.

But what they didn't expect was that out of the 30 people who came to participate in the show, Pei Xiao's number was 24! This number was really low, which meant that she had to wait until the first 23 people had chosen their roles before it was her turn to choose.

In that case, there will be very few characters to choose from.

"Maybe my serial number is later than yours."

Gu Panxia said this to Pei Xiao to comfort her.

Soon, Gu Panxia found her name in the crowd and signed in at the corresponding place. Then she picked up her own ball, turned it over, and saw a big number written on it: 7.

A very early serial number.

Gu Panxia looked at the number and subconsciously smiled in surprise. However, the next second, she suddenly remembered something and immediately put away her smile, frowning slightly as she looked at Pei Xiao who was standing beside her.

"I didn't expect my luck to be so good... Xiaoxiao, how about I switch with you? It doesn't matter if I'm at the back."

Gu Panxia whispered to Pei Xiao.

Pei Xiao shook his head and replied with a smile:

"No, this is everyone's destiny, and you deserve to get a higher number. Don't worry about me, let me congratulate you first!"

Pei Xiao naturally would not exchange with Gu Panxia. Not to mention whether this number was specially arranged for Gu Panxia by some big shot, she was currently recording a program. If she used the last number to exchange for Gu Panxia's earlier number, was she waiting for her fans to spit at her and drown her?

Pei Xiao knew that Gu Panxia wanted to gain a good reputation by stepping on her. Without waiting for Gu Panxia to say anything, she pushed open the door of the waiting area.

There were quite a few people in the waiting area at this time, and when they saw the two of them come in, they all cast their eyes over. The popularity of "Perfect Heart" was very high recently, and most people recognized Pei Xiao and Gu Panxia.

Many people came up to greet her, but Pei Xiao didn't know most of them. The dramas she had filmed before were all low-budget web dramas, and except for the male and female protagonists who were popular young actors, the others were so obscure that no one in the industry could find them. Gu Panxia, ​​on the other hand, had better resources. She paid attention to communicating with everyone on the set, and on the surface, she made many friends in the industry.

Gu Panxia greeted everyone warmly, and several girls also said that they had seen "Falling in Love" and liked the Yuxia couple very much. Pei Xiao smiled and agreed with a few words, then left and went to find a seat.

The few people who didn't stick to it all looked coldly in Gu Panxia's direction. Although they didn't show it on their faces, there seemed to be some contempt in their eyes.

"Can I sit here, please?"

There were not many empty seats at the scene, so Pei Xiao had to find a girl who looked gentler and planned to sit next to her.

"OK."

After Pei Xiao sat down, she saw that the other party was still sitting quietly and had no intention of chatting with her. Pei Xiao held back and still felt that she should introduce herself.

"Hello, my name is Pei Xiao, what's your name?"

The girl withdrew her gaze from the crowd, looked at Pei Xiao, and gave him a gentle smile.

"Hello, my name is Tang Xiao."

A very familiar name.

Pei Xiao thought for a moment and suddenly realized that this person was the runner-up of "A Play Like Life" and Gu Panxia's biggest rival. The two have similar styles and gentle looks, so even after leaving "A Play Like Life", they have always been rivals in their acting careers, often colliding with each other's resources and being as hostile as fire and water.

Originally, Tang Xiao was likely to become Jiang Ziyi's next Golden Horse Award winner before Gu Panxia. However, due to an accident with props on a set, Tang Xiao's face was injured, so she was forced to retire. Soon, she disappeared from the entertainment industry.

It is a pity.

Tang Xiao noticed that Pei Xiao looked a little surprised and regretful when he heard her name, which was a bit strange.

"Why are you looking at me like this?"

Tang Xiao's words made Pei Xiao react instantly, and she quickly smiled to cover up her expression.

"Nothing, I just think you're very pretty."

Tang Xiao naturally didn't believe her excuse. Tang Xiao liked observing others since she was a child. She could observe the slightest change in expression for a long time. She applied this to her acting and was very good at controlling emotions.

She didn't think she had misread Pei Xiao's expression. But Tang Xiao searched her memory for a long time. She had never known Pei Xiao. Why did Pei Xiao's eyes change so obviously after learning her name?

Pei Xiao didn't know about Tang Xiao's doubts and thought that she hadn't discovered anything. At this time, everyone was there and two people walked in slowly from the door.

The man was dressed in a suit and had a gentle smile on his face. He looked refined and elegant. He was Xie Luchao, the movie star whose career was now at its peak. The woman...

It’s Jiang Ziyi!

Pei Xiao didn't know that Jiang Ziyi would come to their recording site today. Jiang Ziyi seemed to notice her gaze, and when the actor next to her was saying the introduction, she glanced in Pei Xiao's direction.

Pei Xiao immediately gave her a bright smile.

Jiang Ziyi didn't say anything, and immediately retracted her gaze, continuing with the actor's words. Pei Xiao certainly didn't mind, after all, Jiang Ziyi was hosting the show, so it was not convenient for her to greet her.

The breathing sounds beside him suddenly became heavier. Pei Xiao looked at Tang Xiao strangely, only to see that she had changed from her previous quiet and calm appearance, and her cheeks were slightly red with excitement.

Noticing Pei Xiao looking at her, Tang Xiao grabbed Pei Xiao's hand, her eyes shining like the twinkling stars in the night sky.

"Just now, did Queen Jiang look at us?"

Pei Xiao was startled by her and responded hesitantly.

"Ah...right."

Tang Xiao didn't care about Pei Xiao's attitude at all, and continued to look back at Jiang Ziyi on the stage. Pei Xiao then realized that Tang Xiao... turned out to be a fan of Jiang Ziyi.

Tang Xiao looked at Jiang Ziyi with sparkling eyes, and she secretly swore in her heart that she must join Jiang Ziyi's team!
