Chapter 355: I Have High Hopes For You

~8 min read 1,486 words

He hurriedly walked forward, took out a business card, and said, "Hello, I am Wu Qiang, a director. That idol drama that was a hit a while ago is my work."

"Oh, hello." Yu Sichen was slightly startled and replied politely.

Truth be told, she and Lu Ruxue had encountered no shortage of people hitting on them while on set these past two days, but her ambitions did not lie there, and she had politely declined quite a few.

Because she understood what these men were thinking; they claimed to admire your temperament or say you had the potential to be a star, but in reality, it was nothing more than wanting to trick you into bed.

Sure enough, after handing over his business card, Wu Qiang's eyes lit up as he said, "What is the young lady's name? I am planning to shoot a romance idol drama recently, and I think your temperament is very suitable. If you have any intention of developing in the entertainment industry, we can have a chat."

"Director Wu, didn't you just say..." that actress was displeased.

"Shut up." Wu Qiang glared at the woman, and the actress obediently shut her mouth.

"Sorry, I have no interest in that direction. Thank you, Director Wu." Yu Sichen gave a faint smile, and that smile, which could topple kingdoms, made Wu Qiang's eyes go straight.

"Beauty, don't keep people at a distance. I know many big stars and many investors. Making you famous is just a matter of minutes. How about it, won't you consider it?" Wu Qiang asked, unwilling to give up.

"Really, there is no need. Chen Yu, let's go." Yu Sichen smiled politely, turned her head, and was about to leave.

"Stop." Wu Qiang's face sank instantly: "Do you not understand my words or what? I said I can make you famous."

"But she doesn't need to be famous; she is someone who will marry into a wealthy family in the future." Chen Yu frowned, and he turned his head and said: "Besides, she has clearly rejected you. Can you not understand her words?"

"Who are you? Do you know who I am?" Wu Qiang squinted at Chen Yu with cold eyes.

"I know, aren't you just that director who filmed a few lukewarm TV dramas? What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Chen Yu asked.

"I am currently supported by several major investors. Whether it is connections or resources, I can be considered first-class. Kid, is this your friend?" Wu Qiang sneered.

"Yes, she is my friend. I will reject you once more on her behalf. If you are harboring those kinds of filthy thoughts, you had better give up on this idea as soon as possible. A toad will never get to eat swan meat." Chen Yu patiently warned him again.

"Hehe, beauty, let's not speak in riddles; I have taken a fancy to you." Wu Qiang looked arrogant: "If you want to become famous, then obediently listen to me. I guarantee you can become a star. Do you know how much money stars make a year? Do you know that feeling of being high above everyone else?"

Yu Sichen was stunned. She felt this director was like a mentally disabled person. Although her family had declined, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse; her life was much better than that of an average person, and she didn't feel the pie Wu Qiang was painting for her was all that good.

"How about it? Tempted, right? If you are tempted, then go to my room, and I will discuss how to package you." Wu Qiang walked up to Yu Sichen and looked at her with interest.

"You usually don't encounter these kinds of flies often, do you?" Chen Yu asked.

"Not really, because my mother usually doesn't let me come into contact with ordinary people. Everyone I come into contact with is a socialite or from the upper class; they still care about their reputation." Yu Sichen shook her head.

"Oh, so this is your first time encountering a scoundrel like this, right?" Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Mm, I suppose so." Yu Sichen nodded.

"Who are you calling a scoundrel?" Wu Qiang was furious. He was visiting the set, and his few film and television dramas that weren't exactly huge hits still gave him a bit of fame.

Truth be told, he was not lacking in women. In the film and television city, as long as he beckoned, many beautiful women would line up to find him, but this time, he had hit a wall.

"Don't doubt it, I am talking about you." Chen Yu pointed outward and said: "I'll give you one minute to disappear from my sight, otherwise you might not be able to bear the consequences."

"Where did a mongrel like you come from? You dare to speak to me like that? Do you believe that you won't be able to walk out of this scenic area today?" Wu Qiang was furious, and he pointed at Chen Yu and roared.

Chen Yu did not stand on ceremony with him. Suddenly, he kicked out, landing squarely on Wu Qiang's legs. This guy let out a miserable shriek, then clutched his legs and collapsed to the ground, twisting in pain.

"Sorry, you are too despicable; I really couldn't wait for a minute." Chen Yu said with some helplessness.

"Bastard, you are dead. I know Fangyuan, the CEO of Xuanyu Entertainment. He is a person with eyes and ears everywhere in Fengling. One phone call from me and he will finish you off." Wu Qiang stood up, trembling.

"Isn't the boss of Xuanyu, Xia Tian? When did it become Fangyuan? And who is this Fangyuan?" Chen Yu was confused.

"He is the vice president. Ruxue said that Xia Tian has too many industries and is too busy to manage them, so he hired someone to help him manage them." Yu Sichen whispered.

"Oh, I see." Chen Yu suddenly realized. He nodded: "Alright then, have that CEO come over. I want to see if he dares to let out a single fart in front of me."

"What is going on?" Just at this moment, a car passed by. The person in the car saw Wu Qiang clutching his legs and got out. This person happened to be the vice president of Xuanyu, Fangyuan.

"President Fang, you came just in time. I was beaten up on your turf. It was this kid. You have to vent this anger for me." Wu Qiang ran to Fangyuan's side, clutching his legs.

"There is such a thing? Director Wu is my guest when he comes to Fengling. I want to see who is so blind that they dare to bully Director Wu." Fangyuan was furious and brought a group of people out of the car.

CEOs of entertainment companies like them usually have connections in both the underworld and the legitimate world, so their influence was quite strong. A group of people got out of the cars following behind Fangyuan, and the crowd immediately surrounded Chen Yu and Yu Sichen.

Yu Sichen was a young lady from a prominent family who had been in high-level circles since she was a child. She had never seen such a scene before, and she couldn't help but grab Chen Yu's hand, feeling a bit nervous.

"It's okay." Chen Yu smiled slightly to comfort her.

Fangyuan had drunk a few glasses of wine. He walked up, drunk and hazy, and cursed: "Which blind person dares to touch Director Wu? Stand out for me."

"You are Fangyuan?" Chen Yu glanced at this guy and said: "Take a good look at my face and see if you recognize it."

"You son of a..." Fangyuan cursed with a drunken face, but when he saw Chen Yu's face clearly, he couldn't help but be startled into sobriety: "Chen, President Chen, it's you."

"Oh, it seems you haven't drunk too much; you still recognize me." Chen Yu smiled.

"Of course, that goes without saying. President Xia often mentions you. I originally wanted to find an opportunity to invite President Chen for a drink, but I never had the chance, and I didn't dare to disturb you rashly." Fangyuan's face was piled with smiles, looking completely sycophantic.

As Xia Tian's subordinate, how could he have not heard of Chen Yu? Especially since Chen Yu's momentum had been so strong lately—the Yu Clan had surrendered, and Mu Chengcang had been defeated. Such a person, even if he wasn't on good terms with his own boss, was someone he couldn't afford to provoke.

"President Fang, who is this? He hit me just now. Are you not going to get justice for me?" Wu Qiang saw Fangyuan's enthusiastic attitude toward Chen Yu, and he couldn't help but feel angry: "If you don't give me an explanation for today's matter, let's cancel all our collaborations."
