Second pregnancy, sixth child: The beloved mom's disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 282 Behind-the-Scenes Maneuvering, Wenna Gets Slapped in the Face

The Communication University of China is once again making headlines online...

When Wen Na was first announced by Tang Xiaoge's studio as the female lead in the new drama, people at school felt more envy than jealousy towards her.

Girls, in particular, are more forgiving of someone like Wenna, who has an average appearance. After all, she's only average-looking, so her selection must be due to her abilities.

Unexpectedly, in less than a day, Tang Xiaoge's studio refuted the rumors and even provided a screenshot of a bank transfer record.

It turns out that the problem stemmed from the staff operating the official Weibo account; they were bribed and deliberately released false information.

As for who transferred the money to this operations guy, even without concrete evidence, Wenna is the most likely suspect.

Otherwise, how could she have just happened to be the announced female lead? It's as clear as day that her intentions are obvious to everyone.

"I never expected that Wenna, who seems so arrogant, would do such a despicable thing. Her methods are so dirty!"

"When the news broke, I thought she was a victim. I didn't expect her to be so good at hiding it."

"This kind of person is from our Communication University, what a disgrace! He's a disgrace to our university!"

"Do you think Wenna knows that Luo Xiyao was originally chosen? Isn't she just jealous?"

"Who knows? I don't think many of them in that dorm have good intentions. The other two probably have ulterior motives too..."

Immediately, everyone started discussing the matter, getting incredibly engrossed in the gossip.

Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue didn't have time to gossip; the only information they noticed was that Luo Xiyao had been chosen as the female lead in "The Commander's Wife"!

"Yaoyao, you've been chosen! You can act opposite Tang Xiaoge now! Oh my god, how are we going to celebrate? We have to celebrate! This is amazing news!" Cui Mengmeng was incredibly excited, her face beaming with joy.

"Congratulations! We can take advantage of visiting you on set to sneak a peek at Actor Tang."

"Why was I chosen?" Ning Yao was somewhat confused.

Judging from the audition process, she felt that the auditioners didn't seem very confident in her performance.

But the result was that she was chosen. Could it be that someone was pulling strings behind the scenes and helping her out?

Before Ning Yao could think further, several female students from the same department surrounded her, all with fawning smiles on their faces.

"Luo Xiyao, you're really amazing! Congratulations on getting the lead role in Producer Tang's film. You'll have to take good care of us in the future!"

"If the production crew needs extras, just let us know. We're huge fans of Actor Tang, and we'd love to see him even once!"

"No roles are fine, I just want us to visit the set!"

"Luo Xiyao, you're so lucky! You're practically the lucky girl of our Communication University! You're going to act alongside Actor Tang!"

"Oh, by the way, my parents sent me a box of local specialties yesterday. They're so delicious, you can't buy them online. I'll bring a box to your dorm later. Don't be shy, just consider it making friends!"

Ning Yao was surrounded by people who flattered her, making it difficult for her to even take a step. She raised an eyebrow but did not get angry.

Suddenly, Ning Yao felt a chill pass over her, and the coldness made her spine tingle.

Looking in the direction from which the icy aura was coming from, sure enough, Wenna walked past them without expression.

Those around them naturally noticed Wenna's appearance and began to quietly comfort Ning Yao.

"It must be really uncomfortable to live in the same dorm as someone like that. I feel sorry for you."

"Why don't you ask your counselor to let you change dorms? Wouldn't that be better than putting up with this? We happen to have an empty bed in our dorm. How about I talk to them for you? My family has some connections at the school, so I can put in a good word for you on something as small as changing dorms."

"No need, we get along really well in our dorm, thank you for your trouble." Ning Yao walked out of the group with a forced smile, and Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue quickly followed.

"When does the production crew want me to go?" Ning Yao asked Cui Mengmeng.

"This afternoon, but they also said that if you have class, you can change the time. Just send a message to the person in charge."

"So easy to talk to?" Ning Yao muttered to herself thoughtfully.

Star Trails Entertainment Company Building.

Ning Yao arrived at the lobby accompanied by Cui Mengmeng, where Tang Xiaoge's agent personally came downstairs to greet her.

"Hello Ms. Luo, I am Ji Qin, Tang Xiaoge's agent. I look forward to working with you."

"Hello." Ning Yao nodded to Ji Qin and extended her hand with a sincere smile.

Ning Yao remained silent throughout the elevator ride upstairs, maintaining her usual composure.

Such silence did not make her seem arrogant; on the contrary, it gave her a soft glow, making people feel comfortable even without her speaking.

After entering the conference hall, Tang Xiaoge arrived five minutes later, and her attitude was not as cautious as Ji Qin's.

"Ms. Luo, the contract is here. You can take a look. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them on the spot." Tang Xiaoge placed the contract in front of Ning Yao, then walked to the table opposite and sat down.

Ning Yao carefully read the contract, scrutinizing every clause. After confirming that there were no problems with the contract, she readily wrote down her name.

Tang Xiaoge appreciated Ning Yao's straightforwardness; he liked people who weren't pretentious.

After accepting the contract, Tang Xiaoge picked it up and was about to leave when Ning Yao called him back. He paused, turned around, and looked at the woman.

"Can I ask you a question?" Ning Yao sat at the table, her beautiful fox-like eyes gleaming with sharp intelligence.

"Miss Luo, please ask."

"Why did you choose me as the female lead in this drama? To be honest, I'm not very satisfied with my audition performance," Ning Yao stated her doubts directly.

She questioned how the spot was obtained, but still hoped to get the role. She wasn't being coy; if it was meant for her, she would take it, but she needed to know why.

"He's a smart person," Tang Xiaoge thought to herself.

"You are the best choice for the female lead in my mind." Tang Xiaoge said this very perfunctorily, but her smile was sincere.

It must be said that he developed a great interest in this Miss Luo Xiyao.

This has nothing to do with the power behind her, but is simply because she is a female artist strongly recommended by Ning Duoduo, and even more so because of her confident demeanor in front of her.

Tang Xiaoge suddenly felt a little regretful, regretting that she hadn't participated in the audition for this role in the drama.

She really wanted to see how this Miss Luo would perform.

Well, since we've already collaborated, there will be plenty of opportunities to act with her in the future.

After Tang Xiaoge left, Cui Mengmeng felt like she was about to jump up and down on the spot.

"Did you hear what Actor Tang said about you? He said you are his top choice for leading actress."

"My God, I should have recorded this! How many female celebrities would be envious of you for saying that?"

Unlike Cui Mengmeng's excited reaction, Ning Yao appeared remarkably calm.

She knows her own limitations, even if others don't.

He's just a newcomer to the industry, and has only acted in one film. While it was passable, it's not as exaggerated as Tang Xiaoge described.

Luo Xiyao absolutely did not believe that she was the best leading actress in the eyes of people like Tang Xiaoge.

Tang Xiaoge is hiding something from her; the casting result must have been manipulated behind the scenes.

Ning Yao quickly pictured a man in her mind, and incidentally, she also accused the handsome man of scheming for personal gain.

Inside the elevator at Star Trails Entertainment Company.

The elevator doors opened with a ding, and a well-maintained middle-aged woman walked in.

After Ning Yao recognized who had entered, her eyes narrowed instantly, revealing a faint, dangerous glint.
