Chapter 454: Chapter 454: Direct Confrontation with Ou Jinchu

"Let’s hear it." Bo Yan was also slightly interested.

Yuran smiled, "Netizens are getting so self-conscious from their parents’ high level of education, they’re almost shutting themselves in. Let me give you a webpage to look for yourself."

As she spoke, Yuran had already shared the webpage with Bo Yan, who was sitting beside her. He opened the link to view it, and after reading a few posts, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Don’t worry, Zhizhi won’t have that kind of realization."

"Why?" Yuran was curious.

"Zhizhi always feels that she’s as excellent as her parents, there’s no such thing as not matching up to them."

Yuran: "..." That was indeed very possible.

Zhizhi rode around for a bit and the little pony slowly stopped in front of Yuran and Bo Yan. Sitting on the horse’s back, her little face beaming with excitement, Zhizhi exclaimed, "Daddy, Mommy, I crossed the obstacle."

"My baby is amazing."

The two of them never skimped on praising Zhizhi. In other words, Zhizhi grew up amidst applause, but they didn’t only offer unmitigated praise. When Zhizhi made a mistake, Bo Yan would also be a strict father.

They never allowed Zhizhi to develop any sense of superiority.

Of course, Zhizhi also didn’t have any bad temperaments.

Zhizhi dismounted and ran toward the two of them. In truth, both felt a bit guilty in their hearts for the limited time and places they could spend with Zhizhi. She was sensible and never made a fuss about these matters with them.

...

In the blink of an eye, Huanya announced the lead cast list for "City of Temptation."

Yuran was impressively on the list, and she was the first person @ted by Huanya, followed by the male lead Liu Shimao and a host of supporting actors.

Since the casting of "City of Temptation" was broadcast live, the audience was quite supportive of the selection of the leads, even more so than when Ou Jinchu was first announced.

In recent years, Ou Jinchu mainly focused on the Europe and America market, and in domestic circles, she was seen as a high-profile star, with her acting skills being something the audience actually knew little about.

On the contrary, there was especially high interest in the male and female leads they had watched being selected.

Ran Studio also re-entered the public eye, firstly because Bai Leyao and the well-known senior singer Liao Boyu officially announced their collaboration.

Liao Boyu was one of the top guns in the music industry, not very old but had won countless prestigious music awards and was the singer for many film and television dramas.

His status in the music industry was unshakeable.

Being invited to sing by him was an unparalleled honor for a newcomer.

Ran Studio didn’t have many artists, but each time, they managed to dazzle the public, leaving them in the dust.

Bai Leyao’s official account directly promoted the senior Liao Boyu: Thanks to the senior for your support, and for thinking highly of me.

Liao Boyu simply replied with a casual: You’re welcome.

Of course, there were conditions for the collaboration. In Ran Studio, strictly speaking, Bai Leyao was the only singer, and Yuran was an excellent composer in her own right.

On the one hand, Liao Boyu did indeed want to cooperate with Bai Leyao, and on the other hand, he also hoped to exchange compositional insights with Yuran.

When one encounters a bottleneck, they hope to find a source of inspiration, and clearly, Liao Boyu saw Yuran as such a source.

Moreover, Yuran herself officially announced her lead role in "City of Temptation."

Lu Xiao, now a variety show star, also joined the transformation series "Military Uniform" cast a week ago, seeking a breakthrough and transformation.

Lu Xiao is now definitely an actor with both mass appeal and acting chops, a favorite of every production crew for bringing both an existing fan base and remarkable acting skills.

At the beginning, he held the worst cards, nearly fading away like his fellow debutants, but after joining Ran Studio, he turned a hopeless hand into a royal flush.

It can’t be said that Lu Xiao’s success is entirely due to his own efforts; Kang Zhenyu and Qi Younian also made significant contributions. However, it was Lu Xiao’s own hard work that brought him to where he is today.

Nobody can deny his achievements and accomplishments over the past two years.

Meng Qiuyan, who had recently returned to the country, also officially announced that she would join the female-led drama "Forever," invested by Diyang.

As if overnight, all the artists from Ran Studio made a high-profile comeback with their works, reappearing in the public eye, and then the topic of Ran Studio climbed the trending searches, staying there for a week.

At the same time, Yuran encountered international movie star Ou Jinchu when she was signing with Huanya.

Ou Jinchu didn’t recognize Yuran at first and when they brushed past each other, she called out, "Yuran?"

Yuran halted, turned slightly, and looked at the haughty Ou Jinchu, "Is there something?"

Ou Jinchu’s assistant, assigned by the Ou Family, was very professional, with no lack of strategies or skills. Seeing Yuran’s attitude, the assistant frowned, "You don’t recognize Jinchu?"

Annan, taken aback by the assistant’s inexplicable tone, laughed awkwardly, "I don’t understand what you mean. Why must my artist recognize Jinchu?"

Ou Jinchu’s assistant, named Lin Bai, also a part-time agent, clearly dissatisfied with Annan’s response, frowned even more tightly, "When Jinchu debuted, your artist didn’t even know where they were. Does asking a question make one so uncomfortable?"

Annan, unaccustomed to indulging such temperaments, scoffed, "What a joke, just because someone debuted earlier, everyone should recognize them? Is your Jinchu some kind of rare heartthrob?"

"You..."

"Lin Bai," Ou Jinchu stopped the angry Lin Bai, pulling down his hand, "Yuran, you don’t remember me?"

Yuran looked at her sideways, smiling faintly, "I remember, aren’t you the one who led the bullying against me back in the compound?"

When it came to old grudges, Yuran was not at all polite, and of course, Ou Jinchu was not embarrassed either, but simply laughed, "I didn’t expect you to remember childhood matters so clearly."

"Of course, shouldn’t I remember clearly? While my father went into battle and protected the peace, the very people he protected allowed their children to bully the offspring of those defending our country. What kind of mentality is that, Ou Jinchu? We’ve never gotten along since we were kids, and I have no intention of getting along with you now. It was just a small matter of competing in the arena, do you care?"

Ou Jinchu looked deeply into her eyes, "Of course I don’t care."

Yuran smiled, "Then that’s even better. I prefer to bet bigger, care to join me?"

Ou Jinchu, "Do you realize what you’re saying?"

Yuran, "I always act on impulse, regardless of what I do, I can handle the consequences."

"Oh, so you mean the Bo Family has nothing to do with you?"

Yuran shrugged, "I didn’t say that. You can guess more boldly, after all, how could I have been with the Bo Family for so many years and have nothing to do with them, right?"

Ou Jinchu disliked her evasive attitude, but also didn’t expect that after so many years, Yuran would become even more repulsive. As a child, her face was full of world-weariness, and as an adult, though no longer showing that disenchantment, she still wasn’t endearing.

Ou Jinchu turned away, "Never mind, I’m not interested in sure wins."

Annan, watching her leave, complained behind Yuran, "Which country’s peacock does she think she is, strutting around with such shamelessness?"
