The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite

"Yanyan... you've become sensible,"

After all, since she had been raised by her side since eleven, and until Shen Zhirou's return when she was eighteen, Su Yang had given Wenyan all her love. Wenyan, like a little angel, had healed Su Yang, who had developed depression from the loss of her daughter.

It's just that after Zhirou came back, the child became somewhat unreasonable. But today, she had a change of heart, which was wonderful.

Su Yang even felt that it was Heaven's will for her to hear Wenyan's inner voice, to mend the relationship between mother and daughter.

Su Yang was sincerely happy.

She continued with the topic they had started: "You said you like acting, so how about I sign you up for an acting class, and then find you an agent, or we could even start our own studio; your second brother could lead you,"

Su Yang herself was an internationally renowned designer, specializing in jewelry design and collaborated with many agents in the entertainment industry. It would be no problem for her to help Wenyan find a good agent if she was willing to step in.

But since they weren't lacking money now, Wenyan still wanted to try on her own.

"Thanks, Mom, but there's no need. I want to try forging my own path first. If I really can't find a way later on, it won't be too late to come back and ask for Mom's help."

"What do you mean by that? It sounds like you already have a plan. Can you share it with me?"

Wenyan nodded: "I looked it up online. A crew of an upcoming director is recruiting new actors, and I plan to go for an audition. They're mainly looking for newcomers this time, so someone with as little experience as me is just right."

"Really? Which director is it? Tell me and I'll see if I have any connections with him."

"Mom, I know you want to pave the way for me, but, the director specifically wants new actors this time to avoid nepotism because he values the quality of the work more. If everyone is a nepotism hire or a big name who won't listen to him, it would bring down the quality of the production. So, if you stepped in for me, it might backfire."

"Alright then," Su Yang caressed Wenyan's head affectionately, "You go ahead with this audition, and if you encounter any obstacles, just tell us, your parents."

"I will. The registration ends tomorrow, so I need to submit my audition material today. My camera is at the apartment, and I'm planning to go there and might stay the night."

"Are you planning to make the video yourself? Why don't you come to my studio instead, and let my studio's photographer shoot it for you?"

"No need, Mom. It's just basic information; having your studio's photographer get involved would be overkill."

[Ah, Ms. Su is truly wonderful. How can there be such a great foster mother in the world? How can I ever repay Ms. Su for all these years of care?]

Hearing Wenyan's inner voice like this made Su Yang pause, her heart aching all the more for her.

If it weren't for this child in those years she lost her biological daughter, she might have gone mad long ago, becoming nothing more than a walking corpse.

"Silly child, you're so endearing. Mom is willing to do anything for you."

"Thanks, Mom, but now that Zhirou is back, after losing her for over a decade, you should make up for lost time with her. This also goes for my four brothers; Mom, you should treat us all equally,"

"Of course, all of you are the apple of my eye."

"Well, it's getting late, Mom. Shouldn't you be heading to the studio now?"

"Yes, I should be going. In a while.." Su Yang didn't finish her sentence when her mobile phone started ringing.

She took a look and smiled at Wenyan: "It's Zhirou calling, I'll take this call."

Wenyan nodded: "Then, I'll go pack my things in my room."

When Wenyan came down with a small suitcase ready, Su Yang was still on the phone with Shen Zhirou.

Not wanting to disturb her, Wenyan whispered a goodbye and headed out.

Su Yang wanted to ask about the suitcase in her hand but couldn't due to Shen Zhirou on the phone not giving her a chance to talk.

-

Wenyan arrived in the garage with her suitcase, looking at the flamboyant Porsche in front of her, scratching her head.

First, being so ostentatious really wasn't her style. Second, she was a country bumpkin unaccustomed to the world, and using this car for commuting didn't seem very comfortable.

She might sell it and get a low-key Mercedes-Benz instead.

After fumbling around for a while, Wenyan finally managed to drive the car away, attracting quite a few stares along the way.

Once she reached the downtown apartment, she didn't bother getting used to the new home. After changing into a form-fitting yoga outfit, she set up the camera.

For the audition materials, the director required the actors to be bare-faced, clearly showing their facial features without using colored contact lenses or high heels, and to show their front, side, and back.

To the pre-transmigration Wenyan, this would have been simple.

And for the current Wenyan, it was no issue either.

This body had a great figure and met the current standards for a female actor's height and weight.

Her face was also ​considered high-quality, with bold features. Tying her hair into a ponytail and wearing a white T-shirt gave off a pure yet desirable vibe.

Wenyan quickly finished shooting the video, then turned on her laptop to prepare an electronic résumé. She bundled it with the video and sent it to the crew's email.

The email had barely been sent when she received an automatic reply, stating that if she passed the initial screening, they would reply within ten days.

After all this, it was already noon. Wenyan breathed a sigh of relief, collapsed on the sofa, and started to order takeout.

Before she could decide on which place to order from, Qiao Kexin's call came through.

Nothing was more important than eating.

Wenyan didn't bother with her, hitting mute, and it wasn't until after she had finished eating that she sent a message to Qiao Kexin.

'What's up? Was busy and couldn't take your call. Just text, I can't talk on the phone right now.'

The other party immediately replied: 'Yanyan, has something happened? I heard Shen Zhirou entered the Shen Group today, but you didn't go. Is that true? Didn't you say your parents had already agreed to let you join the company?'
