Gold will always shine. Hahaha.
Their store promotion lasted for two days. Pei Ying spent three days at the studio to help with packaging and shipping before Ren Shanshan let her go home.
She was extremely tired, but the rise in sales barely comforted her.
After she returned home from the studio, Pei Ying lazed around for two days before getting back to life.
She was particularly excited because her walk-on for Light Shines on Raiment of Rainbows (LSRR) was finally airing that day!
Shed participated in another production that aired on Star TV before, but it didnt have as impressive ratings as LSRR. The productionwas even willing to spend money to get the topics about LSRR on the trending searches.
The TV drama aired at 7:35pm on the dot, so Pei Ying sat down in front of the TV early and watched the news before it.
She was a bit worried that the drama broadcast would suddenly get canceled or delayed for some reason or another. After all, it was something that shed encountered before.
But after the commercial ended, the drama started airing. Pei Ying let out a breath, her attention focused on the episode.
What are you doing? How can you let Shi Jing wear this? Shi Jings manager on the TV screen threw the champagne colored skirt at Shen Liuguang, eyebrows furrowed inanger.
A few of the girls in the dressingroom laughed to themselves. Shen Liuguang lowered her head and looked at the skirt in her hands, her eyes red. I dont know what happened. When I checked it previously, it was fine
Shi Jing sat in front of the dressing table silently and glanced at the girls through the mirror. Her manager was still agitated with Shen Liuguang. She stood up and looked down at the skirt that Shen Liuguang had prepared. Theres still 30 minutes before the start of the runway walk. If you can resolve the problem in that time, Ill still wear your skirt onto the stage.
These words were like light shining down from the heavens, reviving Shen Liuguang in an instant. Dont worry. Ill go fix the skirt now. Ill definitely let you walk onto the stage!
Shi Jing nodded, nearly imperceptably. That would be the best outcome.
Oh Pei Ying was sitting behind the table, pen in hand. She made a note in her book, The emotion here isnt quite right
As she watched her performance on the screen, she recordedall the things she found unsatisfactory into her notebook.
This notebook was born the first time that she acted in a TV drama. Up to this day, it was nearly half filled. Every once in awhile, when she wasnt busy, she would flip through the book, going over and correcting herself to betterher acting skills.
After the runway walk finished, Pei Ying basically had no more scenes. But when she saw the runway scene on the screen, she was a bit shocked.
The person walking down that stage was her, but it wasnt her. Every movement of her arm, every step she took, even her eyes burned intensely. She looked like shed been born to walk down that runway.
She was nearly captivated by herself.
Pei Ying couldnt held laughing. After the episode finished, she turned off the TV.

When she woke up the next day, she decided to check up on her Weibo.
With the popularity of LSRR, there would definitely be a discussion about the latest two episodes out. There might even be a few words about her.
She was dumbfounded when she logged onto her Weibo. More than 90k new fans and 1000 new messages She hadnt even gotten this much attention when she was cursed at before!
She hesitated a bit with the mouse pointer. After preparing herself mentally, she finally opened the comments.
Shi Jings gorgeous ah! I watched her runway scene more than thirty times!
Her legs are so long. So long. So long qaq Have to praise three times qaq
I want Shi Jing to like this comment (doge)
Fucking hell, LSRRs been getting worse and worse! I was going to quit watching! Whod have thought theyd make such a big move?! Queen Shi Jing is beautiful!!!
Satisfied with the leg work (sexy)
The beautys acting isnt bad. I thought you were a professional model~
All these rivals popped up in an instant qaq Pei Pei, Im an old fan!
Director, add some more Shi Jing scenes. More legs!! Your shows new top ratings were because of her!
Pei Ying was taken aback. Last nights broadcast hit a new top (viewership) rating? She clicked onto LSRRs official page, and the first post was the ratings chart.
Last nights ratings were actually better than the premiere!
Wow. Pei Ying sighed. Was it really because of her?
Her phone rang. When she saw it was Chen Sheng calling, she immediately picked up. GM Chen, hello.
Xiao Pei ah, have you checked your Weibo? Last nights episode of LSRR was very well received. Chen Shengs voice carried a hint of laughter. I saw you gained a lot of new fans, and youre trending on the search sites. Congratulations.
Thank you, GM Chen. Pei Ying was still rather unaccustomed to being praised by Chen Sheng in this manner.
I have another piece of good news for you. I received two notices, one from a fashion magazine and another from a high heel advertisement. They both want you.
Really? For Pei Ying, this news was even more exciting than gaining those fans on Weibo.
They even specified that they wanted her. That had never happened before!
Yes, really, Chen Sheng responded. Pei Ying was hot news right now and she wasnt an A-list star. Theyd get a hot celebrity and wouldnt have to pay as much, so of course theyd try to sign her quickly. Otherwise, as Pei Ying got more famous, her price would increase as well.
Pei Yings thoughts werent as elaborate as Chen Shengs. She was simply happy to have work. Thank you, GM Chen!
Why thank me? Its due to your own good work. I watched last nights episodes today, and they really were good. I told you before, gold will always shine. Hahaha.
Hahaha, Pei Ying laughed along, but silently, she thought about how GM Chen didnt use to say any such thing.
Come over to the office later. Ill go over the details with you.
Okay, Ill head out immediately.
After Pei Ying hung up the phone, her lips couldnt help raising up. Her premonitions before were right. Her luck had finally come!
She quickly got ready, and then she grabbed a carton of milk and a slice of bread as she ran down the stairs.

When she got into the taxi, she pulled her phone out again and started scrolling through her Weibo.
There were several hundred more comments and a few thousand new tags.(Note: tag, like when you @name someone)Pei Ying checked her tag notices and found that a marketing page had posted about her.
The album on Weibo was full of stills from last nights drama episodes. Nine squares. The text posted with it was simple and concise as well.
No money for this post. I just want to share with everyone.Pei Ying #LSRR Shi Jing#
It was the first time that Pei Ying was posted onto a marketing Weibo page. Naturally she was a bit nervous. And then she realized that this marketing page had followed her.
Were they really a fan?
She exited her Weibo and went to check out her friend feed.
Compared to her Wiebo, her friend feed was a lot more calm. A few close friends had messaged her congratulations, so she responded to each of them.
Her phone vibrated and she received a message from Yu Kaize.
Pei Ying stared at it a moment. Shed added him a long time ago, but their texts stopped the day that hed sent her the photos. Shed almost forgotten about this person.
[Yu Kaize] Beautiful, youre famous. (big smile)
[Pei Ying] Its still early. (shy)
[Yu Kaize] No need to be modest, youre trending on Weibo. (big smile) Congratulations.
[Pei Ying] Thanks ^_^
[Yu Kaize] Your looks and acting are both pretty good. If theres a drama missing a female lead here, Ill let you know. Hope to work together with you again.
Pei Ying bit her lip, wondering about how she ought to reply to Yu Kaize.
Yu Kaize was Universe Pictures prince. He surely had many resources and if he recommended her, it would save her a lot of effort. Butshe and Yu Kaize were just acquaintances. Even if he extended a branch, she didnt dare accept it so readily.
[Pei Ying] Thanks for your kind intentions. If theres a suitable opportunity, Ill work hard for it. ^_^
After a long while, this was the best compromising response she could make.
[Yu Kaizei] Great. Ive got to go film.
[Pei Ying] Okay, bye.
She returned to the Weixin menu and looked at the chat on top.
What was Song Nanchuan doing now? Did he know she was a hot topic on Weibo right now? Mm Although he was a major shareholder in Universe Pictures, he didnt seem to be the type to concern himself over these things in the entertainment circle.
But she was really happy now. She wanted to share that with him. She opened her message window with Song Nanchuan, wondering what the best way would be to tell him. In a way that would sound natural.
As she was thinking, she suddenly had an idea.
CEO Song, Ive got new work. Ones an advertisement too. Ill soon have money to take you out for a meal. Hahaha.
Two birds with one stone. For the first time ever, Pei Ying felt quite witty.
After she finished discussing with GM Chen at the office, she bought a whole bunch of food and headed over to Ren Shanshans studio. Today was a good day, and so they should celebrate!
Ren Shanshan had already seen on Weibo, but before she had the chance to give Pei Ying a call to congratulate her, shed already walked into the studio with food.
Aiyo, youve hit the jackpot? Ren Shanshan raised her eyebrow to look at her and started pulling out the food from the bag.
Pei Ying laughed. You wouldnt believe me if I told you. I got a new job, an advertisement and a magazine shoot. I just signed the contract!
Not bad. Even an advertisement! Ren Shanshan glanced at her happily. I saw that you gained more than 200k fans as well. The momentums quite good. You might really get famous!
I know!
Dont forget to link to our shop when you get famous!
Pei Ying was about to ridicule her when the phone in her bag started to ring. When she picked up the phone, she heard, Xiujuan ah, its Mom.
