Xia Xin hesitated. She wasn’t reluctant to give up the Beast Language System out of greed, but because she genuinely loved animals. Having the opportunity to communicate with them, understand their thoughts, and fulfill their wishes was something she truly desired. Compared to the ability to communicate with animals, the troubles in her life seemed less bothersome.
After resolving Tang Hail s issue, the recording of the program became much smoother. The fourth episode of the show went by without any surprises. Even the director found it unusual, saying, “We’ve filmed four episodes of this show, and three of them had unexpected incidents. Suddenly, we have one episode that runs smoothly. Why does it feel like something is missing?”
The assistant director quipped, “Maybe you’ve been scared off.”
Sun Tao retorted, “Those accidents don’t scare me at all. What scares me is poor ratings! Fortunately, the first three episodes had excellent viewership, and many businesses have increased their investments. Otherwise, I’d certainly give Tang Hai a good dressing down!”
Just as Xia Xin was about to leave, she overheard Tang Hail s name mentioned while passing by Sun Tao. She stopped and glanced at Sun Tao. As she was about to leave, Sun Tao called her, “Xia Xin, come here for a moment.” Xia Xin asked, “Is there something you need, Mr. Sun?”
Sun Tao said, “Nothing serious, just having a chat. I’ve noticed that your performances in the past few episodes have been excellent. You have a great presence on camera, and you’re very photogenic. Have you ever considered becoming a celebrity?”
Xia Xin was momentarily taken aback. This wasn’t the first time someone had mentioned the idea of her becoming a celebrity. With the repeated suggestions, she was beginning to feel interested. She asked, “Mr. Sun, are you suggesting an opportunity for me?”
Sun Tao said, “I have a friend who’s currently shooting a web drama and needs a stunt double. I think you’d be a great fit.”
Xia Xin hesitated for a moment, glancing at her petite frame. She wasn’t entirely sure and asked, “Mr. Sun, are you sure it’s a stunt double role?”
Sun Tao chuckled and clarified, “I might not have explained it properly. You’ve misunderstood. This stunt double role doesn’t involve dangerous actions. Instead, it’s about mimicking a cat. The plot of this web drama is about a cat turning into a human and falling in love with a human. There are some scenes where you’ll need to mimic cat-like actions. The cat scenes are limited, lasting about four or five days of shooting. If you’re interested, you can contact me, and I’ll make the introduction.”
Xia Xin replied, “Alright, Mr. Sun. However, I hadn’t considered becoming a celebrity before, so I may need some time to think it over. I’ll get back to you with my answer tomorrow.”
Sun Tao said, “Sure, there’s no pressure. Even if you don’t pursue an entertainment career, you can think of it as shooting an advertisement.”
Xia Xin agreed to give it serious thought and then left. On her way home after work, Xia Xin continued pondering the director’s proposal. Suddenly, she heard someone warning her, “Miss, be careful! You’re about to step into a puddle!”
Xia Xin snapped out of her thoughts, only to realize that she was about to step into a large puddle. Her left foot had already moved forward, almost stepping into it. In a moment of crisis, her body reacted faster than her mind. She swiftly moved her left foot out of the way, but her right foot hadn’t caught up, causing her to stumble and almost tall.
The person who had warned her rushed over to help. “Miss, you should be careful while walking. It’s easy to have accidents when you’re distracted.”
With the help of the person, Xia Xin regained her balance. She was about to thank him when she saw a kind-hearted and honest-looking young man. Instantly, alarm bells rang in her mind. She immediately pulled away from his grasp and swiftly ran off, leaving the well-intentioned young man looking puzzled.
Ever since she learned about the passive abilities of the Beast Language System, Xia Xin was on high alert. Any unfamiliar man approaching her made her feel that there might be danger. However, she had forgotten that sometimes danger could come from women too.
That night, while walking her dog in the community, Xia Xin suddenly remembered Jing Mo. Now that she knew Jing MO was her old acquaintance, she didn’t need to be so formal with him. Her attitude toward him had changed, and they were now more like old friends.
Xia Xin called Jing MO on the phone and said, “I’m walking my dog. Do you want to join me?”
Jing MO had just finished work and was looking at his stubborn husky who was throwing a tantrum again. He asked, “Where are you?”
“Just the walkway near my house. Come over quickly, ” said Xia Xin..
