Once Wu Bai believed he had placated Shen Qi, he broached the main topic, "Do you know about Director Pei's upcoming film, 'Melody of Longing'?"
"I'm aware," Shen Qi replied lazily.
She knew it; it seemed she was right about his purpose for visiting.
"Is Director Pei still casting roles the same way as before?"
"Of course."
That's a relief!
Wu Bai breathed a sigh of relief; at least he didn't have to worry about people using connections to get ahead. But then, with a hint of inquiry, he asked, "Can the people from Radiant Star arrange auditions directly?"
"Yes, they can."
"Well then, could you..."
"It's only an audition. Whoever Director Pei chooses, not even my father can influence that," Shen Qi cut off the rest of Wu Bai's sentence.
Wu Bai pursed his lips. Although a hint of disappointment lingered within, it was expected. He had sought out Shen Qi for an entirely different matter.
"Borrowing money?"
