Mo Rao’s performance ended smoothly. From the judges’ expressions, they seemed very satisfied.

Fu Ying, in particular, had a meaningful smile on his face.

“Thank you, judges.” Mo Rao said in a choked voice as she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

She had been too emotional just now and had not fully recovered yet.

Fu Ying stood up, took out a tissue, and walked to Mo Rao’s side.

Jia Li looked at them with a gossipy look. Mo Rao couldn’t refuse in front of everyone, so she could only take the paper from Fu Ying and say softly, “Thank you.”

When she returned to the waiting room, only Tong Yue was left.

“Sister Mo Rao, you’re back!” When Tong Yue saw Mo Rao, she welcomed her warmly. “How do you feel? Your eyes are still red…”

“Not bad, I think. I’ve already done my best. As for the outcome, it depends on the judges,” Mo Rao smiled as she said.

Tong Yue nodded. “Yes, that’s good! You can definitely get this role! Can I… have your contact number?”

Mo Rao liked this young lady, so she readily agreed. “Okay.”

The two of them exchanged contact information. This was the first “friend” Mo Rao had made after returning to the country.

Previously, when she was with Fu Ying, Mo Rao stayed at home every day, so she didn’t socialize or have friends.

Hence, after returning to the country, she focused on working on her career and didn’t have any close friends.

When Mo Yuan returned home that night, he ran to Mo Rao’s side and asked urgently, “How was it? Did you get the role?”

“There’s no news yet.” Mo Rao shrugged. “But whether I can get this role or not, I’ve proven myself.”

Mo Yuan touched Mo Rao’s head. “It’s obvious that Jia Li only needs to post a clarification, so why insist on proving it like this? Your acting skills are obviouslu superb.”

Although she said that, Mo Rao still wanted the netizens to completely dispel their doubts about her.

At this moment, Mo Rao’s phone rang.

It was a call from Chen Zheng.

“Mo Rao! The officials of ‘Butterfly Fragrance’ have already released the audition video online and announced that you’re the female lead they want. You’re on the trending searches again!” Chen Zheng said in an excited voice.

Mo Rao almost cried out—in the end, she still got the role.

“That’s great! I’ll go online and take a look now!” Mo Rao replied and hung up.

Seeing Mo Rao’s expression, Mo Yuan knew that there was good news.

“Did you get the role?!” Mo Yuan hurriedly asked.

“Yes! The officials have already announced the news online!” Mo Rao said happily as she opened Weibo.

Mo Yuan hugged Mo Rao and had the urge to jump up excitedly. “I knew you could do it!!”

Just as Chen Zheng had said, Mo Rao was currently at the top of the trending searches. Not only that, but “Mo Rao’s acting skills” and “Lin Xia’s acting skills” were also on the trending searches.

Mo Rao clicked on the audition video released by the officials and saw many actresses’ performances.

Any person could tell that Mo Rao performed the best.

Mo Rao specifically watched Tong Yue and Lin Xia’s performance. They were both unexpected.

Tong Yue was unexpectedly good. She was an unknown small actress, but she could make herself cry and quickly enter the emotional state. It was just that she was a little lacking in terms of emotional distribution. If she was nurtured well, she would definitely become famous in the future.

As for Lin Xia, Mo Rao didn’t expect her performance to be so bad.

Mo Rao recalled Lin Xia’s arrogance when she returned to the waiting room. At that time, Mo Rao thought that Lin Xia had performed very well and was confident in getting the role. In the end, it seemed that she was just too full of herself.

In the video, Lin Xia cried exaggeratedly and pretentiously. Mo Rao felt extremely awkward when watching her.

After the netizens saw the video, they discussed it.

“Now, we can confirm that Mo Rao deserves the role.”

“What is Lin Xia doing? I thought her acting skills were very good… I didn’t expect the audition to be so bad!”

“How dare Lin Xia snub Mo Rao? The difference is like heaven and earth!”

…

This outcome coincided with what Mo Rao had expected.
