Encountering the Unspoken Rules

Qin Yang laughed. Here's another one who says he always keeps things to himself. 

Was this the feeling that he has been giving others?

But on second thought, it was normal as well. What he knew and experienced was really different from these ordinary college students. In whichever case, at least normal college students wouldn't be as calm as him when they saw gangsters with knives or steel pipes, right?

Before Qin Yang could figure out how to answer Li Siqi, she suddenly sighed softly. "I really envy you."

Qin Yang was slightly surprised. "Why?"

"Oh," Li Siqi said and explained, "I mean that I envy the unity in the dormitory."

Qin Yang curiously asked, "Are your roommates not united?"

Li Siqi smiled bitterly. "We're in our final year now, so the college allows us to get jobs from outside, which is a huge competition. We weren't close before this, and something happened when a film crew came to the school for recruitment. Therefore, we had a complete fallout. I'm preparing to move out as well..."

Qin Yang nodded in response. "I guess it would be really awkward if you don't have a good relationship with those in the same dorm."

 "True, when we go back to the dorm, we just do our own things, and we don't even talk. It's super awkward."

Li Siqi paused for a moment and started another subject, "Actually, I came here today for an audition with a film crew. If I get accepted, then I'll move out of the dorm, which will also be more convenient..."

Qin Yang was suddenly interested. "An audition? What role are you auditioning for? The main female lead?"

"How is that possible?"

Li Siqi rolled her eyes. "I'm only a student, how could I play the main lead? I auditioned for the female lead's servant girl..."

"Servant girl?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "It's a historical drama?"

"Yes, a 30-episode historical drama TV series. The lead actress will be the famous film star Zhao Ying. I applied to be her onscreen servant girl, who has some scenes and appears through the entire drama. There are a lot of people fighting for this role…"

"That's not bad. What do you think? Do you think you'll get the role?"

Li Siqi bit her lips, and there was a complicated look on her face. She immediately smiled and said, "It's just luck if I get it, but it's fate if I don't. We'll see how it goes."

Qin Yang noticed the changes on her face and felt that there was some hidden meaning behind it. However, he didn't ask and just comforted her, "It must be a little difficult now. Everything's hard in the beginning. You're just a student now, so it doesn't matter if you don't get selected; there's still time. "

Li Siqi shook her head, and her face became slightly bitter. "It's not that easy. There are countless students with film and drama majors graduating each year, but how many of them actually became famous? Most of them are still unknown..."

Qin Yang encouraged her, "You're so beautiful and graceful that you'll definitely stand out. You should have faith in yourself!"

Li Siqi turned to look at Qin Yang with bright eyes. "Do you really believe that I'll succeed and become a famous film star?"

Qin Yang nodded seriously. "As long as you work hard enough, I believe you'll definitely become a big star."

Li Siqi softly sighed. "Although effort can change a lot of things, sometimes it's not as useful as someone's words. Is this a kind of irony for hardworking people?"

Qin Yang looked at Li Siqi's face and was silent for a few seconds. "How many times have you encountered the unspoken rules?"

Li Siqi turned her head and lightly bit her lip. "If I had sex with a man to get this role, would you look down on me?"

Qin Yang slightly smiled and replied without hesitation, "Yes."

 Li Siqi suddenly laughed. Her laugh was beautiful and moving as if the flowers were blooming. "Can't you be a little more euphemistic?"

Qin Yang slightly smiled. "Isn't this the answer that you were expecting?"

Li Siqi stopped. "You guessed it, didn't you?"

Qin Yang smiled. "I'm not in the entertainment circle, but in this era, who wouldn't know about the sordid and unspoken rules within it? You just said that efforts are not comparable to the words of others, which kind of hinted at it."

Qin Yang looked at Li Siqi and gently said, "You're a beautiful and graceful girl. As a newcomer in the entertainment circle, it would be strange if no one approached you."

Li Siqi blinked and said with a smile, "You're so young, but you know quite a lot."

Qin Yang's face went black. What did she mean he was so young?

"You don't seem to be much older than me..."

Li Siqi said with a smile, "I was born in May, and I'm twenty-one years old. How about you? I'm guessing eighteen?"

Qin Yang was very speechless. "I'll be twenty years old next month. You're only half a year older than me, you don't have to look so happy about it."

Li Siqi smiled with a little smug. "Anyway, I'm older than you. You should call me Elder Sister."

Qin Yang flicked his lips. "Are you crazy? No way!"

Li Siqi smiled and didn't press it. She continued to walk on. "Actually, I was in a bad mood earlier, but as soon as I met you, my mood instantly became better. I think I would be much happier if you invited me to eat a big meal."

Qin Yang kept up with Li Siqi's footsteps and smiled. "Why? You don't think you'll be selected?"

Li Siqi sighed. "Yeah, because I rejected someone. There are so many people who are willing to be in bed with him for this role. Why would I be chosen instead?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "You've already made a decision. Why are you asking me now?"

Li Siqi blinked. "Because I don't think it's fair. I really thought that I did much better than them, and I'm more suitable for this role. You know, I was tempted at that time... because that guy was quite charming, even if he was much older than me..."

Qin Yang smiled and didn't answer.

Then Li Siqi plainly said, "But I'm still a virgin. Why can't I have sex for the first time with a man I love? But I cringed at the thought of how many girls have had sex with him before this, so I refused him without any hesitation and without showing him any respect. Alas, my little Zhenzhen has forsaken me."

Qin Yang touched his nose and asked, "Who is little Zhenzhen?"

Li Siqi said with a smile, "The character that I auditioned for. That housemaid is called Little Zhenzhen."

"Uh-huh," Qin Yang said, and then comforted her, "Okay, then turn your grief and indignation into an appetite, and eat whatever you want to eat to take revenge on society. Things will probably take a turn for the better soon. Maybe he'll pick you?"

Li Siqi shook her head, apparently not expecting anything. She deftly raised her hands and shouted, "Forget it, let it go with the wind. I just want to eat, eat, and eat. I'm going to take revenge on society..."
