"I visited the World Studio two days ago. I heard that Cen Xiangyang is currently filming there." Ji Fanyin spoke as if she was just prattling about random, everyday affairs. "You do know that I have a film set there, right?"
"…"
"Cen Xiangyang approached me. You're aware of that too," Ji Fanyin spoke with a trace of mirth in her voice. "But do you know why?"
Ji Xinxin finally broke her silence. She sneered in disdain, "Weren't you the one who approached him, offering to play my stand-in so you could earn some quick cash from him? He even rejected you."
