s Fountain was surrounded by dense gardenia trees, which were already budding.
The tall trees around were very old, hiding the building behind them.

The second Xia Ning was close to the house, a middle-aged man walked out.

“Miss, I’m the housekeeper of the Zeng house.
How did you get in?” the middle-aged man said to Xia Ning politely.

Xia Ning nodded.
“Hello, I’m Xia Ning from SE Entertainment and wanted to see Director Zeng in person.
Do you know where Director Zeng is right now?”

The housekeeper glanced over Xia Ning and finally said, “Director Zeng is in the library upstairs.
I will announce your arrival.
Please wait here.” As he spoke he turned around and went in the hallway.

Xia Ning did not move.
She looked at the mist in the fountain next to her and was lost in thought for a while.
Her eyes were a bit blurry.
No one knew what was on her mind.

Not after long, the housekeeper came back.

“Miss Xia, Director Zeng said he did not invite you in.
So please go back.” The housekeeper reached out his hand and signaled for her to leave.

Xia Ning did not move.
She looked at the housekeeper and said, “Please tell this to Director Zeng for me.
I won’t leave without seeing him.
I said in the last audition, opportunities are for the prepared.
I know in Director Zeng’s heart I have a lot of gossip around me and do not qualify as a good actress.
But what people say do not define who we are.
I remember although Director Zeng had a lot of works earlier, they were not very influential.
Many were questioning him for fooling around using family relations.
It was not until he directed the world-famous ‘The Blue Bird’ that he was able to clear his name.
As for me, I am just like him, in need of a good work to show everyone I am Xia Ning, the actress, not some girl in those gossips.”

The housekeeper looked at Xia Ning and said in an apologetic tone, “Miss Xia, please leave.
Director Zeng will not see you.”

Xia Ning smiled slightly.
“Then I will wait here until he sees me.
Such a big house should have a place for me.
I promise I won’t disturb you.” As she spoke she walked to a chair next to the garden and sat down.
