On the next day, Ning Ran sent the kids to school and got a call from Wang Xiaoou on her way back asking her to go to the agency.

Nothing else was mentioned on the call, causing Ning Ran to feel a bit nervous. Did I do something wrong that caused the agency a lot of trouble?

However, when Ning Ran reached Star Entertainment, nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary, even Wang Xiaoou looked normal too.

At that instant, Ning Ran was relieved.

“You have a job tonight. You’re going to be in Flower City TV studio’s show. Get ready for it. We’ll leave for the studio in a bit.” Wang Xiaoou informed.

“Huh?” Ning Ran was stunned. “Right now?”

“Yes, right now. It was supposed to be next week but one of the stars they invited had to cancel so they asked if you could sub in. We thought about it and it looked like there’s enough time so we accepted it.” Wang Xiaoou explained.

“What do you mean there’s enough time? I’m not even ready.”

“The show goes live at eight tonight. We’re still far from noon. How is a whole day not enough time for prep?” Wang Xiaoou raised an eyebrow.

“For anyone else maybe. But definitely not for me. I’ve never been on live television before! I’m scared!” Ning Ran exclaimed.

“What are you scared of? Just leave everything to us. Don’t worry!”

“What’s the show about? What do I need to do?”

“There will be some games and you will be doing a performance. Do you sing or dance? Or do you have any acting-related talents?” Wang Xiaoou asked Ning Ran.

“None!”
