That night, after Lisa arrived home, Jennie dragged him into the gym and forced him to help her rehearse for 4 hours.

But, in the middle of the night as Jennie slept, Lisa noticed her body was covered in bruises even though she tried her hardest to hide it.

So, the almighty President didn't mind getting out of bed in the middle of the night to look for some ointment for his wife.

For the sake of those roughly 2 hours on the screen, actors sure sacrificed themselves... After helping her apply ointment to her bruises, Lisa's heart ached. But, he also realized that this was the true Jennie; a woman made from flesh and bones; a woman that did all she could to achieve her goals.

The next morning. Jennie received a phone call from Rosé.

"It's weird, everyone else was notified to show up at 2pm. Why did they tell you 3? Could the audition for female lead be at a different time?"

As soon as Jennie received this information, a cold look appeared in her eyes. She then replied, "Thanks, I know what to do."

"Jennie, could it be that someone is scheming behind-the-scenes?"

"I'm not sure, but I definitely need to be cautious of it," Jennie replied gently. "Don't worry, I can handle small matters like this."

"I'm not worried about you. I'm more worried about the people that want to go against you." After speaking, Rosé hung up the phone. These days, she was no longer a manager. Instead, she spent her time as an assistant for Minho. Soon she would be assessed on her progress, but in reality, she was more focused on preparing for a child.

Jennie hung up her phone and then called Song Yanshu, "I'm going to get ready. Come pick me up for the auditions now."

"So early?" Song Yanshu questioned.

"Yes," Jennie nodded, "There has been a change..."

In order to quickly adapt to whatever was thrown her way, Jennie decided to stay within the immediate vicinity of the auditions...

...

1:30pm. Those that were notified of the audition slowly made their way into the venue. Amongst them was Gu Heng. She seemed confident that the role would be hers.

Domestically, she was one of only a few actresses with a martial arts background. In fact, her every punch was smooth and full of power. So, most action films would take her into consideration first because of her experience.

Jennie was also amongst these hundred-or-so people. She was wearing a plain t-shirt and black cap, sitting in a chair normally, reading through her script with her legs tucked beneath her chair. As a result, everyone overlooked that this low profile woman sitting quietly to one side was actually Jennie, the woman that attracted attention wherever she went.

The auditions were held in Beijing's Academy of Performing Arts; this was Wei An's alma mater. The hundred-or-so people were currently inside one of the spacious classrooms as they waited to be called in for their audition.

Because of time constraints​, as soon as one heard their name, they would enter the audition room as quickly as possible. Amongst these candidates, many exited as quickly as they entered, but many also made it to the 10 minute mark.

"Hey, I thought Jennie would be here at the auditions too, how come I still don't see her?" someone started to gossip to relieve the tension in the room.

Actually, most of the people in the room came from strong backgrounds or had a lot of experience. After all, a famous director's film couldn't be auditioned by just anyone.
