    Kevin felt there was something wrong and hurriedly held Steve’s arms. Kevin said unhappily with his arms wrapping around Steve, "Didn’t we decide to have dinner together?"

    Steve pushed Kevin’s hand reluctantly and said, "I thought there was nobody else. And… And don’t be too intimate in front of an outsider… Please?"

    I saw Kevin became a little disappointed, like a miserable young wife. With that, I hurried to say, "Don’t worry! My lips are sealed!"

    Kevin was about to burst into tears and he murmured, "You know how sad I was when Shirley died. But I have to recultivate a top star. I found Mary had a sign of Shirley, so… Trust her! Take it easy!"

    Steve looked at us doubtfully. I giggled and raised my hand, "I swear. I’ll keep quiet about it!"

    He sighed and stopped talking. Kevin took Steve into the living room, sat him down and asked, "The theme song you recorded today, is that the song of Xiao Feng Cuo? The popular TV play?"

    Steve frowned slightly and said, "Um, maybe. I just recorded a demo today."

    "Do you know more about the play? How about the progress?" Kevin went on to ask.

    Steve shook his head and replied, "It seems that the shooting has stopped for a while when it just started. And the female two seemed to get something wrong."

    Suddenly, Kevin had a flash and continued, "That’s it! I knew that! Her drug abuse incident is under investigation now. Therefore, her position is vacant. I think Mary may have a chance."

    "Mary? Female two? Are you kidding?" Steve looked at me in disbelief.

    He sighed, held Kevin’s hand and said with a soft voice, "I know Shirley was your best friend and her death had a great impact on you. But you can’t be so eager to create another Shirley! You’re too anxious."

    Kevin laughed and patted Steve on the shoulder to reassure him, "No problem. But can you do me a favor? Ask more details about Xiao Feng Cuo tomorrow. Could you?"

    Steve showed some embarrassment on his face but nodded, "Well, I think the cast is also thinking about the re-election. Alas, how rough this play is. The leading actress died at first and then female two was involved in a drug scandal."

    Kevin was wild with delight, stood up, drew me aside and said, "I’ll try my best to get you back into Xiao Feng Cuo."

    However, I lowered my head when I thought of that the original leading actress was me, Shirley. I felt sad about it.

    I’m still happy to be back though I’m not the leading role. Because of the top-notch director, screenwriter and post-production team of this play, it will definitely become famous when finishes.

    But I still felt disturbed because the leading actor was Jeffery.

    There were many opportunities for me to cooperate with Jeffery, but I shirked a lot because I was afraid of meeting him. Kevin knew that, too. As for this time, I really can’t escape?

    "But Kevin…" I said awkwardly.

    "I know you mind Jeffery," Kevin said to me, earnest enough, "but now, only Xiao Feng Cuo can make you famous overnight. This is the last chance. Would you still want to remain dormant for several years before coming out? Just like Shirley?"

    I was persuaded. He was right. Even Kevin had excellent resources in this industry, such a good play like Xiao Feng Cuo is rare indeed.

    I nodded and he patted me on the shoulder, walked back to Steve and sat down. Steve smiled and wrapped around Kevin’s shoulder. They talked and laughed in front of the TV.

    Actually, I envied Kevin and Steve sometimes. They might not be understood by most people, but what mattered most was they had each other in the heart.

    I also desired to own such sweet love, but my childhood environment had made me afraid of love. I couldn’t break through and accept anyone else as well, whether it was Shirley or Mary.

    Pretending to be happy, I called to them, "What would you like to eat? I’ll do it for you now."

    A few days later, Kevin rushed to my bedroom cheerfully, with a form in his hand. I was doing yoga at that time, almost hurt myself.

    I held my waist and looked at Kevin impatiently, "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

    He handed me the form and said, "The audition of Xiao Feng Cuo."

    "Was it done? I mean… About Luna," I asked, looking at Kevin quizzically.

    Luna was originally female II in Xiao Feng Cuo, but she had been detained and interrogated a few days ago due to the exposure of drug abuse. Such a scandal also delayed the shooting over and over again.

    Now that the audition had been given, which showed Luna had been removed from the crew and she really suspected drug.

    I couldn’t help feeling disappointed with Luna. We happened to act in the same scene before. In my impression, she was a serious actress. But unfortunately, such a thing destroyed her future.

    I’ve heard a lot just like this in show biz, but most people can control themselves indeed. I took the audition notice, looking at the words on it. I didn’t feel too excited. I just put it aside and went on with my yoga.

    "By the way, did you find Xin’s hometown?" I asked.

    Kevin sighed and shook his head. "Not yet. The entry documents have been deleted, too. I guess she did it before leaving. I’ll find it, don’t worry."

    "All right. Who is the leading actress of Xiao Feng Cuo?" I continued to ask.

    "Your guess was right. It’s Yuki Zheng."
