Chapter 7: Meeting Yang Mi
In the evening, Li Xiaolu got up from the bed and walked towards the mirror. Looking at herself, Li Xiaolu frowned.
She looked at pale skin and the baggy clothes. Li Xiaolu knew she was beautiful and had a nice figure but listening to her mother she hid her beauty.
It is said that no matter what, you can never hide a person's beauty. So, however Li Xiaolu used to dress up she was still beautiful. She never realised that Li Roulan was jealous of her.
But now it was time to change everything. She took out a casual pink knee length dress and tied her hair in a messy ponytail. She looked cute and young.
That's like it... Li Xiaolu praised herself looking in the mirror. Taking some papers with her, she put them in her purse. Then, she hailed a cab to the 'Sunshine Cafe'.
On reaching, she took a seat in the corner of the cafe and ordered coffee for herself. She felt a little nervous. This is her only chance... It would be great if she could convince her.
She took a sip from her cup and frowned looking at the door. Shouldn't she be here? It's almost time.....
Just on time, the door opened and a young woman walked in. She took a seat and gave the waitress an order. Li Xiaolu smiled looking at that person, Yang Mi.
Yang Mi works as a manager at Marvellous Universe, one of the top company in the entertainment industries. She is a very talented woman and has managed to produce two top artists.
She is very hard to please and recently has no artist under her. Li Xiaolu wanted to take this opportunity to works under her at the Marvellous Universe to oppose Li Roulan.
She remembered that in her previous life, Yang Mi was undergoing a very serious problem at this point if time and because of which her whole family was destroyed. So this was her only chance....
She got up and walked to her. "Miss Yang Mi... Hi, I am Li Xiaolu. I would like to speak a few words with you. Can I sit here? " she asked politely.
Yang Mi was busy in her thoughts. Currently her family was undergoing a very difficult situation and she was helpless when she heard someone call her name.
She looked up and was stunned to see a beautiful young lady standing in front of her. If this woman knew acting, then with this face.... she could definitely be an actress.... Yang Mi thought.
Yang Mi nodded as she continued sizing the lady in front of her. Li Xiaolu smiled taking a seat. There was an indescribable noble aura around this women that made Yang Mi very comfortable.
"May I know what Miss Li wants to talk with me?" Yang Mi asked.
Li Xiaolu smiled, " Miss Yang Mi, I want to be an actress and I want to work under you... "
Yang Mi was shocked at how straightforward Li Xiaolu was. There are many people that wants her to be their manager, so they always talk in circles and try to butter her up.
But the young lady in front of her, was straight to the point and she liked it. But that doesn't mean she will say yes...
Yang Mi raised her eyebrows, "Oh... Have you ever worked in a flim? "
Li Xiaolu gave a soft smile, " I have..."
Yang Mi narrowed her eyes, " You have a really beautiful face Miss Li, If I had seen you I would have remembered it.... "
Li Xiaolu laughed, " I really have worked in a film but if I tell you I don't know if Miss Yang Mi would believe me? "
Yang Mi didn't knew what kind of feeling it was but her heart was telling her to listen to this women in front of her and to believe her.
Yang Mi nodded, "I believe you... "
Li Xiaolu smiled as she asked, " Miss Yang Mi have seen the film ' Enchanted ' ?"
Yang MI nodded, " Yes I have seen the film. It was a very wonderful film and the actress did a great job..... Were you in that flim ? "
Li Xiaolu nodded. Yang Mi thought of the various characters in that flim and she was pretty sure she hadn't seen Li Xiaolu in it.
Excited, she asked, " Which character did you play? "
Li Xiaolu smiled, " The main female lead... "
Yang Mi took a deep breath and looked at Li Xiaolu perplexed. She knew that the main female lead of 'Enchanted' movie was Li Roulan. Her acting was incredible and she has won many awards too.
This young lady in front of her was really very gutsy. To lie straight to the face.... It really needs a lot of courage.
Yang Mi didn't want to embarrass her so she politely said, " Miss Li, I'm sure you can become a great actress one day, but you don't have to lie like this. Everybody knows the female lead of Enchanted was Li Roulan.... "
Li Xiaolu didn't get angry as she continued smiling, " I am not lying to you. The female lead of 'Enchanted' is me. Li Roulan is my younger sister and I acted as her substitute in that movie... "
