That was why Ye Meng had mixed feelings when she saw Shi Jie, the rising star.

Ning Ran had just debuted a few months ago. When she got Channing's endorsement deal that was supposed to go to Ye Meng, the latter had put up a fight with her, only to fail miserably.

Now, Ning Ran was no longer a rookie, but new talents were being introduced to the public again. With how cruel things worked in the entertainment industry, there was no way Ye Meng would be at ease.

Both Ning Ran and Ye Meng contemplated whether they should take the initiative and greet Shi Jie.

They were all there to film for the show. If they didn't interact at all, it wouldn't be easy for them to bond later.

However, Ye Meng found it difficult to lower herself and greet a junior first.

On the other hand, Ning Ran wasn't too bothered. Although she was a few years older than Shi Jie, some people still considered her a rookie in the industry. After all, it hadn't been long since she got the Best Newcomer Award.

However, since Ye Meng didn't make a move, Ning Ran stayed still as well. She didn't want Ye Meng to accuse her of riding on a rising star's coattails.

Fortunately, Shi Jie walked over to them on his own. “Hello, Ms. Ye, Ms. Ding.”

This was the first time Ning Ran and Shi Jie had met each other. As Ning Ran had been embroiled in various problems and incidents in the past few months, she didn't have the energy to pay attention to what was going on in the entertainment industry. She wasn't even aware of the birth of a superstar like Shi Jie.

“Hello, Shi. Long time no see,” responded Ye Meng with a smile.

Ning Ran also smiled faintly and nodded. “Hello.”

That was the only thing she could say. There was nothing to talk about since they didn't have any previous encounters, and Ning Ran did not see the need to make small talk.

“Ms. Ding, I love your show. When it started showing, I tuned in every day. Even when I finished work late at night, I made sure to watch the latest episode before going to sleep,” Shi Jie chirped.

Ning Ran did not expect to hear that. She was pleasantly surprised to find out that Shi Jie was a fan of hers.

“Oh, really? Thank you for liking it. Actually, The Sound of Thunder 2 is the only show I've formally acted in so far. I don't have many works on my filmography. I'm just a rookie,” said Ning Ran humbly.

“The fact that you impressed everyone with just one show means you're really good. It's useless to be on too many projects. What's most
