This is why Jane Sampson, who doesnât follow entertainment news much, knew about this matter.
You see, even though Jane knew that Director Daniel Taylorâs drama would eventually become popular, if you asked her who had earlier played the role of Evelyn Woods, Jane wouldnât have had a clue.
Because she hadnât been paying attention.
Jane scrolled through the comments on that publicity tweet for a long time before she saw a few of her fans supporting her, and then she exited Twitter, satisfied.
The program recording was scheduled to start at one-thirty in the afternoon, and before that, Jane needed to get to the TV stationâs makeup room for her makeup. To her surprise, when she was waiting in the makeup room, Julie Sampton, already made up, appeared in her makeup room. "After the showâs recording, letâs have dinner together. Iâll tell you later which dining hall."
Julie stood behind Jane as she entered the room and suddenly delivered this statement to her, habitually adopting a commanding tone when speaking to Jane. In Janeâs presence, she always felt a sense of pride, as though she was superior to Jane. "Iâm sorry, but I have to rush to City C immediately after the program," Jane replied with a smile. Dinner with Julie? To be honest, she feared it would upset her stomach.
Although she didnât know why Julie was reaching out to her so persistently, Jane would bet a box of instant noodles that it wasnât for anything good. Julieâs gaze held a hint of anger, but since there were many other people in the makeup room, she didnât start yelling at Jane like she did at home. She managed to maintain her poise after struggling for a few seconds and feigned indifference with a nonchalant hum, "Thatâs a pity. Never mind, we can make plans another day."
After saying that, she walked out, leaving those unaware to think she and Jane were old acquaintances and very good friends.
As Jane waited for her makeup to be done, Mr. Humming and the teacher walked in, gestured for Jane, and said, "Jane, come out for a moment, thereâs something we all need to discuss last minute."
Min Humming was todayâs male host. It could be said that in the world of hosts, Mr. Humming is definitely a leading figure. Jane felt honored when Mr. Humming himself came to call her.
"Havenât you started your makeup yet?" Min Humming jokingly remarked as he glanced at Jane, "They are all taking advantage of your natural beauty, thinking that even if you donât have time for makeup, going on camera bare-faced wonât be an embarrassment. Iâll hurry the makeup artists for you. Itâs your first time on stage, right? You need to be stunningly beautiful."
"Thank you, Mr. Humming," Jane replied as her heart thumped excitedly. Before coming, Rock Bell had told her that Mr. Humming was very nice, but she hadnât expected him to be even better than she had imagined.
The reason Jane was called over was that the show had a last-minute change, "Weâve added a game segment called Who is the Undercover, are you all familiar with this game?"
Seeing that everyone nodded, Min Humming specially looked at Jane, considering that among this group, she was the youngest and also the newest, pure newcomer. As a member of the older generation, he felt a bit more protective.
"Jane, how about you? Any problems?" Min Humming specifically asked, concerned about the potential for difficulty in controlling the game and worried that the young girl might be nervous.
