Her words were filled with genuine concern for Elder Shen's health, reflecting her deep sense of responsibility and dedication as a medical professional. In her eyes, the practice of medicine was not merely about treating illnesses, but about holding a profound respect and care for human life. She believed that through her own efforts, she could help more people—whether through the medium of art or through medicine.
Listening to her, Shen Yanzhi became even more certain that he had made the right choice. He felt Xu Luoning's sincerity and kindness, her passion for the healing arts, and her reverence for life. Such qualities were exceedingly rare, whether in the medical field or in the entertainment industry. He could almost envision Xu Luoning shining brilliantly in the future, becoming the center of everyone's attention. He believed that her joining Shen's Entertainment would bring more than just a new artist to the company; it would infuse it with a breath of fresh air and boundless possibilities. Her talent and character would become a shining business card for Shen's Entertainment, drawing even more eyes and resources their way.
A flicker of anticipation crossed Shen Yanzhi's eyes as he gently replied:
"Very well, Miss Xu. I will pass the message along to my grandfather, and I also look forward to you joining Shen's Entertainment as soon as possible. Let us create many more wonderful things together. I believe your joining will make our team even more vibrant and creative."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Luoning's heart remained unsettled for a long time. Standing in the temporary dressing room of the production crew, she felt the warm and bright sunlight stream through the curtains onto her face. She knew that a new chapter of her life was about to unfold—one that was not merely a career shift, but a turning point in her life's trajectory.
Meanwhile, sitting in the spacious leather chair of his office, Shen Yanzhi silently cheered Xu Luoning on in his heart as his gaze drifted toward the towering skyscrapers outside the window. He firmly believed that Xu Luoning would carve out her own path in the entertainment industry and become the focal point of all eyes.
As the plot of The Great Yin Dynasty progressed, Xu Luoning's academic studies also entered their final sprint. She knew deeply that the college entrance examination was a crucial test in her life, and she had to give it her all so as not to let down her own hard work over this period nor the expectations of everyone in the production crew.
Whenever the night grew quiet and deep, she was always the last one to turn off the lights. Her desk was piled high with review materials and notes. As the tip of her pen glided across the paper, every formula and every historical date seemed to be deeply etched into her heart.
Furthermore, she officially joined Shen's Entertainment, becoming a signed artist of the company. Shen's Entertainment assigned a female assistant named Xiao Mi to her, which finally allowed her to relax a little. Xiao Mi not only shared many of the trivial burdens of her work, but also provided meticulous care in her daily life, making Xu Luoning feel the warmth of home.
During the final days of filming, Xu Luoning poured almost all her time into studying and reviewing. She utilized every available moment, silently reciting knowledge points even while having her makeup and wardrobe changed. Her diligence and perseverance moved everyone on the set.
During breaks in filming, the director would often pause to encourage her, saying, "Luoning, we've all seen how hard you work. You are bound to succeed."
At last, the day of the college entrance examination arrived.
Carrying the blessings and hopes of all the members of the production crew, Xu Luoning walked into the examination hall. With calm composure, she tackled every single question, using her solid foundation and exceptional performance to earn a satisfying answer sheet for herself.
The moment she stepped out of the examination hall, she let out a long sigh of relief, her heart filled with a sense of release and joy.
