n

nSong Ci felt that she did not act that atrociously.

n

nHowever, she began to doubt herself. Why else was Lu Gan’s head lowered?

n

n“Was my performance awful? Why weren’t you looking at me?”

n

nSong Ci asked hesitantly.

n

nLu Gan was in a deep sleep and did not answer.

n

nSong Ci tried to be as tactful as possible and said, “Let me try again. I’ll definitely improve!”

n

nLu Gan was still sleeping.

n

nSong Ci turned around and exhaled. After she composed herself, she faced Lu Gan again. She was ready to perform again.

n

nAt first, she was full of confidence and thought that she would be praised. Unexpectedly, the opposite happened.

n

nWas her acting really bad? Did it actually cause someone to look away?

n

nThe previous directors told her that her acting was good. She was merely unlucky and lacked resources. Was that all a lie?

n

nSong Ci looked at the man in front of her. It seemed like she had lost her confidence.

n

n“Just say what you want. I can take it.”

n

nLu Gan continued to sleep.

n

nSong Ci became even more nervous.

n

n“Senior, can you say something? Anything. I will accept your criticism and use it to improve myself!”

n

nLu Gan just slept.

n

nSong Ci’s heart was broken. Why was it so difficult for him to speak? How dreadful was her performance?!

n

nShe stared at Lu Gan curiously and finally realized that something was wrong. As she walked toward him, she uttered, “Lu Gan?”

n

nLu Gan was sleeping soundly and his breathing was even.

n

nHer acting was so good that it could make people fall asleep!

n

nSong Ci looked at her fiancé in disbelief. She was completely stunned.

n

n‘My lousy acting skills made him sleepy.’

n

nSong Ci sat on the sofa with a heavy heart. She really did not have any strength left. It almost seemed like she gave up on surviving.

n

nAs she continued to look at Lu Gan who was sleeping with his hand supporting him, Song Ci’s mood worsened.

n

nShe wondered if she should change her career path. What was the use of a sleep-inducing acting skill?

n

nEven so, she was unwilling to give up. Being an actress was her lifelong dream. She wanted to keep improving!

n

nSong Ci was thinking to herself when suddenly, a phone rang.

n

nAt first, she thought that it was her phone and was about to turn it off because she did not want to disturb Lu Gan while he was sleeping. Then, she discovered that it was not her phone, but Lu Gan’s.

n

nSong Ci stretched her neck and looked at Lu Gan’s desk.

n

nMeanwhile, Lu Gan had made some movement.

n

nHe slowly raised his head and seemed to be in a daze. He reached out for his phone. Since he had just woken up, his voice was a little low.

n

n“Hello.”

n

nHe did not even know what the other party said and merely replied with a few “Mmhmm” before hanging up.

n

nLu Gan then realized that Song Ci was sitting on the sofa with a lifeless expression on her face.

n

nAs if he had just woken up from a dream, he suddenly remembered that Song Ci was performing for him!

n

nSo, he had fallen asleep during Song Ci’s performance again.

n

nHe had watched many movies last night, but none of them worked. Yet, he was able to sleep after watching Song Ci act!

n

nThe first time could be a coincidence, but certainly not the second time, right?!

n

nIt definitely had something to do with Song Ci’s acting skills!

n

nAs long as Song Ci could put him to sleep, he was willing to let her stay by his side.

n

n“You acted well.”

n

nLu Gan put down his phone and looked at Song Ci with a calm expression. He acted as if he did not fall asleep and had watched her entire performance.

n

n“?”

n

nSong Ci really wanted to curse out loud!

n

n‘Are you f*cking kidding me?

n

n‘You were sleeping!

n

n‘Somehow, you have the nerve to tell me that my acting is good?

n

n‘How ironic! You’re an even better actor than I am!’

n

nSong Ci did not believe his words at all and simply remained silent.

n

n“But you don’t seem very popular.”

n

nSong Ci snorted coldly and thought to herself, ‘With my hypnotic acting skills, how can I be popular? It would only work out if everyone in the audience had insomnia.’

n

nShe finally understood why she was not successful even after so many years. Her acting skills were just not good enough!

n

n“No.”

n

nSong Ci said in a low voice.

n

n“Why don’t you switch companies?”

n

nLu Gan had no idea his previous action had affected Song Ci. He continued speaking, “I have a media company. If you are willing, you can consider signing up.”

n

nSong Ci felt that he was still asleep!
