When the movie was released, it caused a great societal reaction. The movie was unlike other ordinary romance movies because《Magnificent》was a movie that had a greater meaning besides romance. The movie made people question whether they would be able to keep true to themselves in the face of temptation like money.

The movie exposed the ugly side of human nature, and furthermore, it questioned human nature in general.

Huo Wu remembered that the female lead of this play was the long-standing Film Queen. To tell the truth, this role didn’t really suit the Film Queen because she was nearly forty years old. Although she had outstanding acting skills, she can’t capture the innocence and simplicity that Xiaofang displayed when she first moved from the countryside to the city.

In the beginning, Jiang Yuqing competed with the Film Queen over this role, but she was unsuccessful. This was the one and only setback that Jiang Yuqing faced in this life. However, it was also thanks to this setback that led her to grow and develop into a more talented actress.

In order to appease her for failing the audition, Mo Ze stepped out of his usual character and coaxed her until she was happy. This was the first step for the couple.

Huo Wu was very interested in the movie,《Magnificent》, and she was even more interested in the role of the female lead, Xiaofang.

It will not be easy playing as the female lead for《Magnificent》because it was a complicated role. When Xiaofang first entered the city, she was innocent and clean. But slowly over the years, she indulged and became intoxicated in pleasures and the nightlife of the city. Xiaofang’s character changed from an innocent young girl into a charming and alluring woman. She slept with one man after another skilfully and easily.

Huo Wu wanted to take the role of Xiaofang for herself.

But before she could do that, she must gain Fu Yining’s approval.

The best way to gain his approval was to act in the campus movie he was currently filming.

Fu Yining was a very talented director. He was the youngest and the most talented director in the entertainment industry. Although he was undoubtedly skilled in his field, he was also very picky. He was overly critical of his own movies and dramas, but it was precisely due to his dedication that he was able to produce many excellent movies.

Based on his dedication to his movies, Huo Wu predicted that it would not be easy for her to successfully audition for the second female lead of the campus movie. Even so, she must work hard to receive this role.

This was the only way she would qualify to even fight for the female lead role in《Magnificent》.

With all of that in mind, Huo Wu nodded her head enthusiastically at Huo Yusen and said, “Okay, brother. I want to audition for it.”

Huo Yusen nodded his head and said, “I will contact him for you, and once they’ve set a time for you to audition, I will notify you.”

“Okay.”

While the two were talking, fireworks suddenly blossomed one after another in the sky.

They’ve started dinner late, late enough that it was more accurate to say that they were having a midnight snack instead of dinner. Huo Wu hurriedly glanced at the time on her phone after she saw the fireworks outside the window. The time displayed on her phone was 11:58 pm.

She never expected that their conversation would stretch on until twelve in the morning.

Once the clock struck twelve in the morning, it will be a brand new year.

Huo Wu walked to the window and looked at the red, yellow, blue, and green colored fireworks blooming in the night sky. She turned back and smiled at Huo Yusen who was standing behind her. She said, “Brother, Happy New Year!”

Huo Yusen was staring intently at the colorful fireworks outside the window. The fireworks were incredibly dazzling and bright. He had his hands in his pocket when Huo Wu wished him a happy New Year. He tilted his head to the side slightly and replied in a pleasant and gentle voice, “Happy New Year.”

Happy New Year.

Huo Wu didn’t know why, but she suddenly thought of the picture that Mo Ze had sent her earlier.

Is it New Year’s Eve? Why don’t you straddle yourself on my body?”

No! She needed to stop thinking about him!
