While Tong Luo was busy being speechless, the person in charge of Dream Fantasy had already started talking to Qi Wu.

When he found out that Qi Wu was going to act in Song Qi’s “City of Loneliness,” he was both surprised and delighted.

“What a coincidence. One of the costumes we prepared for you was inspired by wintersweet. It fits your character very well.”

Tong Luo then watched as Qi Wu discussed the clothes’ alteration with the person in charge of Dream Fantasy and their senior designer.

There were only five senior designers in Dream Fantasy, and one of them was now here.

These five senior designers had the same pride as the scholars of old, especially since they only approved of models who were as beautiful as their designs.

However, Tong Luo saw that the senior designer’s eyes lit up the moment he saw Qi Wu. He kept showering her with compliments

Tong Luo could not help but laugh.

She was happy for Qi Wu.

No matter what, Qi Wu’s paths would never be closed off. She would always be loved by the gods.

Tong Luo was going to leave after Qi Wu left with the Dream Fantasy duo, but then she overheard Song Qi talking to Chang Xun.

“Chang, when did you become so generous? The person in charge of Dream

Fantasy even came here personally. You’ve really put in a lot of effort for Qi

It was unknown what Chang Xun said, but Song Qi snorted and said in an even more surprised tone, “Really? Which fool is that powerful?”

Tong Luo was speechless.

Could this fool be Qi Wu’s sugar daddy?

He was actually able to contact Chang Xun and even make Chang Xun work for him. There was no way this man was just a simple rich man.

After all, Chang Xun was now one of the top managers in the entertainment industry. He was also an old employee of Chaoqi Group. Even the directors of Chaoqi Group would chat with him when they saw him.

Tong Luo left soon after, so she missed Song Qi’s slightly horrified tone as he exclaimed, “Chang Xun, are you kidding?”

“How could that fool be Jin Si? Are you sure it’s not just your imagination?”

After settling the matter of her outfit with Dream Fantasy, Qi Wu returned to the villa.

On the way, Chang Xun called her again and said that he had already arranged a stylist for her, so she did not have to worry.

Qi Wu agreed.

When Qi Wu returned to the villa, Tong Luo immediately jumped up and rushed over to her. “How is it? Is it all done?”

Qi Wu smiled and nodded, then she softly said, “Thank you, Tong Luo.”

Tong Luo was excited, but Qi Wu’s stare made her feel shy. To hide her emotions, she frantically waved her hands. “It’s nothing. Now, you have an outfit worthy of you.”

With Qi Wu’s problem solved, Tong Luo’s fighting spirit was ignited once more.

She quickly pulled Qi Wu out for the final rehearsal.

After a day of rehearsals, Qi Wu walked into the bathroom and called Jin Si. The call was soon answered, and she gently greeted, “Jin Si.”

“You’ve finally finished your lemon drops. Is that why you’re calling me?” Jin Si raised his eyebrows.

Qi Wu tilted her head in confusion and obediently answered Jin Si, “I haven’t finished them. There’s still a lot left.’ There’s still a lot left.

That statement infuriated Jin Si.

His eyes darkened. “Why did you call me then? Bored and looking for trouble?”

Qi Wu was not scared away by his cold and heartless tone. Her gentle voice did not waver as she said, ” I want to thank you for the clothes.”

Upon hearing that, Jin Si knew without a doubt that Chang Xun had spilled the beans again.

The corners of his mouth curled up in a slight smile, but what he heard next made him freeze in shock.

“Chang Xun said that it’s really rare for a miser like you to spare anything,” said

Jin Si was speechless.

The corners of his mouth twitched. “Anything else?”

“Yes.” Qi Wu obediently replied and then continued, “Will you come to watch my performance tomorrow night at 8.00 p.m.?”

“I’m very busy.”

Jin Si did not reject her outright, but he did not say yes either.

Qi Wu calmly nodded. “I understand.”

Her expression was neither sad nor happy. She did not appear sad at all because of Jin Si’s answer, but this made Jin Si even more unhappy.

However, he could not name the reason for his upset, so he could only scowl in response.

Then, he listened as Qi Wu mercilessly hung up the phone right away.

Jin Si’s pupils dilated.

For an inexplicable reason, he was furious. He really wanted to drag Chang Xun over to show him just who between Jin Si and Qi Wu was the one trampling over the other’s heart.

Before the competition officially began, every contestant was rehearsing and making last-minute adjustments.

The budget for the competition was huge, so they were able to set up 3 stages with a main stage in the middle and 2 supplementary stages.

The stylist Chang Xun hired had contacted Qi Wu early on. Soon, Qi Wu followed her into the dressing room to get changed and dolled up.

The next time Qi Wu appeared in front of everyone, everyone could not help but stare at her, even though there was no spotlight on her.

This was because they could not imagine how Qi Wu could appear holy and sacred while wearing a bloody red dress that made her look like a demon.

There was only a simple golden hairpin on her head, but it was enough to make her look very elegant and stunning.

She had only taken a few steps. As her calm gaze swept past the other contestants, everyone felt like she was Xi Yu who had stepped out of her show and into reality.

The moment Qi Wu sat in her assigned seat, everyone kept looking at her no matter how dazzling the stage lights were.

Many of the contestants who were in the Actor category sat away from her to avoid being in the spotlight.

Qi Wu quietly lowered her eyes. She was already used to the attention.

When Tong Luo appeared, she ignored the strange looks sent her way and walked straight toward Qi Wu.

Her voice rang with audible amazement as she exclaimed, “Qi Wu, this dress really suits you.”

Qi Wu raised her head and smiled. “Tong Luo.”

She seemed to be glowing as the lights from all over the hall shined and reflected off her.

Tong Luo’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the smile.

“If I were a man, I would definitely have fallen in love with you,” she muttered.

Qi Wu leaned over and looked at her with puzzled eyes. “What?”

Tong Luo was startled. She had not realized just how close Qi Wu was.

Tong Luo did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Don’t lean in so suddenly,” she solemnly said.

She would be just as bad as Qi Wu’s sugar daddy then.

The thought infuriated Tong Luo once more.

That man really lucked out!
