I stiffened when I saw Jiang Xinyue smiling at me. What does this woman want now? I really couldn't help but want to roll my eyes. Why doesn't this cheating couple leave me alone? Just seeing them would make my mood turn sour.
"Hello," I replied calmly.
"I watched the episode last night," she said warmly. "You were amazing."
"Thank you," I said.
She didn't seem offended by my brief response. Instead, her smile grew brighter. "You really have a lot of talent. I can tell you'll go very far in this industry."
I nodded politely. Compliments like these were common, especially on set.
She continued, lowering her voice slightly, "Since you're a senior and this is my first drama, I hope you can help me a little. Give me some pointers when you have time."
I paused for a second, then nodded slowly. "If I can help, I will."
On the surface, my words were gentle. But inside, I sneered.
Help her? Only if I was out of my mind.
