He shook his head and chuckled at the old bastard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin, cigarette dangling from his lips, laughed loudly: “You sneaky little brat, caught you at last!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on, come on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun was singing into the microphone; seeing Li Luo appear, he waved to the side: “Madam, get our little brother some girls! Xiao Luo, how many do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Luo waved his hand awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that he was shy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin was clearly here as a go-between, and since he’d already eaten and drunk at the man’s expense, refusing later would be hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder you’re still young.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses, Wu Dun smiled warmly and gave a thumbs-up: “Five it is!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo stared blankly at his own five extended fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That didn’t seem—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That wasn’t what he meant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could explain, Yuan Bin grabbed him and shoved a large glass of whiskey to his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After downing the glass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid the song “If You Dare to Fight, You’ll Win,” five beautiful girls in tight skirts filed in—C, B, C, B, D—making Li Luo’s heart swell with delight; he could only let Wu Dun do as he pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crushed in the middle by the girls, he raised his glass and looked around with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only now could this happen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once livestreaming took off, how many guys would pay such a fortune just to witness such a scene?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since you’re here, make the best of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After swallowing another glass of whiskey, he let loose with the Hong Kong and Taiwan crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swallowed the candy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then fired the cannonball right back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, seeing Wu Dun and Yuan Bin approach with raised glasses, Li Luo knew the real business was coming. He signaled the girl beside him to move aside, then picked up his glass: “Wu Zong, Chief Yuan, thank you for the hospitality.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll drink mine first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He downed most of the whiskey in one gulp and slammed the empty glass onto the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d given them full face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it’d be easier to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his boldness, the room erupted in cheers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the girls refilled the glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun and Yuan Bin settled into seats beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Luo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun clapped his shoulder and got straight to the point: “I’m always straightforward—I think highly of you, and I like your personality. Chief Yuan says you don’t have an agency yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about coming to me, Brother Wu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My resources are solid—I guarantee you’ll get roles!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Yuan Bin nodded along, putting on an air of “no need to be polite.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he was just going with the flow, helping Li Luo meet the film company boss was a huge favor, especially for a newcomer like him with no connections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least in Yuan Bin’s eyes, even if he’d taken on an adopted sister, what did it matter?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people just pretend—they may or may not actually help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But right now, it’s solid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun’s smile was warm—he’d seen Li Luo’s acting and martial skill firsthand yesterday, and his personality on the booze table had deeply impressed him, so he’d decided to personally extend the olive branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his status, he’d shown full respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kid was good-looking too—put him in a drama and train him properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another money tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid their contrasting expressions, Li Luo lifted his full glass of whiskey again and drained it in one swallow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though his liquor tolerance was decent,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this rapid bingeing left him flushed and red-faced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Wu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Wu Dun’s fading smile, Li Luo said seriously: “I’m truly grateful you see potential in me. Before, I’d have said yes without hesitation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun’s smile strained to hold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin frowned, puzzled why he’d turn down such a golden chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo picked up the thread, shaking his head with a wry smile: “You know I’m still young. My sister won’t let me keep wasting time on sets—she told me to go back to school after filming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m trying to get into Beijing Film Academy—so my future path will be smoother.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing he refused to go back to school, Wu Dun’s expression softened, and he seemed to recall something, a flicker of nostalgia in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xu Qing?” Yuan Bin asked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo spread his hands and continued seriously: “Sister Xu has more experience than me—I can’t ignore her advice. You understand, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, mention school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then bring up Xu Qing as the big banner—he was sure they’d have no more objections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, both men were offering him a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was kindness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No need to offend them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is Xu Qing your adopted sister?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun looked astonished—he knew about the rescue, but hadn’t known this detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Li Luo could answer, Yuan Bin quickly explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a few words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Dun gave Yuan Bin a weary glance—if he’d known about this, he wouldn’t have approached so rashly. Yuan Bin looked slightly embarrassed; he hadn’t expected Xu Qing had actually started planning for Li Luo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Studying is good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking off his gold-rimmed glasses, Wu Dun gazed at the glittering lights around him: “My older brother once told me—people must read more books.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Otherwise, they won’t understand reason!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to recall something, and a glimmer of tears appeared in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Bin, hearing him mention his older brother,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>grew solemn with reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re willing to give up fame and money,” Wu Dun looked at Li Luo again, his eyes full of admiration: “To go back and pick up books—that’s why I knew I didn’t misjudge you. Well done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come, drink with Brother Wu—we’ll have plenty of chances to work together.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he felt no resentment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, he was even happier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at this handsome young man, he seemed to see his younger self, once locked in prison, clutching books and studying hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Wu Dun’s invitation, the three glasses clinked hard together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The matter was settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo finally relaxed completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Building a good relationship with these two men would be a useful asset in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The neon lights shimmered endlessly, the liquor went to his head, the girls grew more beautiful by the minute; under the two old guys’ goading, he followed the girls straight upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone else was paying—why not take the free ride?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perfect chance to trigger a system reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Shared bed, golden fish dancing in the air, bliss of the meditation cushion】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Reward: Seven-Star Sword Art (Mastered)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Reward: Performance Experience +60】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Reward: Physique Experience +50】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Reward: Dialogue Experience +45】\u003C\u002Fp>",1243,"2026-06-20T17:17:01.025Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","7007ef2c9925cf2c83e70425ef40c29de3364efebb1521ddca74698dd1f2a3a5","how-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-chapter-27","how-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-chapter-25",461,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhow-can-you-be-an-emperor-of-acting-without-lett-cover.jpg"]
