Chapter 55: Chapter 55: The Beginning of the Scandal On Friday, Zhou Yun went to Zheng Xiaowen’s studio for the second fitting of the clothes. This time Chen Fusi was not there, and Zhou Yun quietly breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as Zheng Xiaowen saw her, she smiled and said, "I saw the news this morning that your next show is all set." Zhou Yun gave a bitter smile and shook her head, "Let’s not talk about it." "Hmm?" Zheng Xiaowen looked at Zhou Yun thoughtfully, "It sounds like you’re not very happy about it?" "Because of this, I’ve completely offended Song Chi," Zhou Yun said with a downhearted shake of her head, "He hasn’t spoken to me in days." "What happened?" Zheng Xiaowen perked up when she heard it was related to Song Chi. Zhou Yun explained, "Previously, Song Chi invited me to shoot his new film, but I didn’t know that my agency had already accepted another role for me behind my back. As a result, I could only let him down." "Sigh, it’s just this? Just explain the situation," Zheng Xiaowen felt it wasn’t a big deal, "It’s not a major issue, it’s understandable. He shouldn’t stop contacting you over this." Zhou Yun: "I feel especially bad about it." "But it truly is a pity. A lot of female celebrities are eyeing his new film, numerous well-established actresses want to play even the third or fourth female leads." Zheng Xiaowen, despite being in the fashion industry, was closely connected to the entertainment circle and knew a lot of insider details, "That web series your agency accepted for you..." Zheng Xiaowen didn’t finish her sentence, but Zhou Yun understood her meaning. Zhou Yun forced a laughter, feeling on the verge of tears. "Helplessly obligated." Just four words. Hearing this, Zheng Xiaowen sighed. "But what your agency did was indeed unscrupulous, why wouldn’t they tell you if they accepted a role on your behalf?" Zhou Yun: "Actually, they did tell me, but at first, I wasn’t interested in the project and declined it. I thought it was settled, but who knew... Let’s drop it, it’s a long story." Seeing that Zhou Yun was in a bad mood, Zheng Xiaowen patted her shoulder and said, "Alright, let’s try on the clothes first. Your career has started off very well. For things that aren’t going your way, find a way to make them a bit better. As for Song Chi, I suggest you apologize more. From his perspective, he extended an invitation and offered you a role, and you turned it down, he must be upset." Zhou Yun: "I know, but I’ve been sending him messages every day, and he doesn’t reply." A hint of helplessness appeared on Zhou Yun’s face. Seeing the slight forlorn expression on Zhou Yun’s face made Zheng Xiaowen feel compassion. She didn’t want to see Zhou Yun feeling down at this time. "Do you know where Song Chi lives?" Zheng Xiaowen asked. Zhou Yun shook her head. Zheng Xiaowen said, "I’ll find out for you. I suggest you go in person to apologize." Zhou Yun’s eyes widened. "At this time, don’t feel embarrassed or shameful. It doesn’t pay to be at odds with Song Chi over this matter. Moreover, if he was willing to invite you to shoot his film from the start, it must be because he appreciates you and wanted to give you this opportunity. A good thing turned bad, if you don’t try to make amends, you’ll regret it when you look back on it," Zheng Xiaowen said. Zhou Yun nodded, "I’ll take your advice." After the fitting, Zheng Xiaowen was satisfied with the way the clothes looked on Zhou Yun, nodded, and said, "Let’s settle on these two sets. I’ll invite you over for one more dress rehearsal, and that’ll be enough." Zhou Yun hugged Zheng Xiaowen and said, "Thank you." And added, "I like them a lot, too."
