"He wanted to act?"
Chu Yan took a sip into his cigarette and drew a smoke in the air. The tiredness on his face was visible, and the always calm and collected aura he displayed was no longer found. Perhaps, due to the exhaustion of the work he did this past few days, that made Chu Yan seems to age a little.
His eyes stared at the young assistant narrowly. A small glint of darkness flashed in his pupil. He threw his cigarette and clasped in his hands into the table.
The young assistant trembled, "Y-yes, boss. I heard the conversation between the young master Yan and the little master. He wanted to become an actor."
Chu Yan's face darkened. Lian Zhinan had social fear, and he finds no reason on why the young man suddenly wanted to act. Aside from doing business, Chu Yan is also a talented director. His works completely dominated the overall ratings and ranking in the platform. He just announced his retirement a month ago the moment he embraced his emotion for the young man.
Does he really wanted to do nothing with him that he was willing to endured his phobia?
Chu Yan felt his chest tightened again, and he then coughed violently. The young assistant anxiously wanted to support him, but Chu Yan pushed his hands back. He stopped coughing and stared at the assistant, more serious this time.
He commanded in extreme manner, "If he wanted to act, then find a suitable assistant and manager for him."
Chu Yan overwork himself just to build Lian Zhinan's family's company from scratch. It was difficult, but Chu Yan was determined to return the life of the young man in the past that he stole, even if that doesn't include him.
After three weeks of recuperation, Lian Zhinan was finally discharged. The young assistant that Chu Yan placed beside him was helping him to pack his things. Lian Zhinan did not refuse and let him do the work. After entering the car, the young assistant drove silently, watching the serene face of Lian Zhinan.
Feng Xue's cheeks reddened. His age is not that much older as Lian Zhinan and Feng Xue find it difficult to move his eyes. His boss placed him beside the young man because he believed in his capabilities. But he really couldn't stop himself from admiring Lian Zhinan's gorgeous face.
Plastic surgery is a very common thing nowadays. However, even with the technologies and medicine, it was still difficult to achieve and produced an extreme face like this. Feng Xue recalls that the young man is nineteen now. He wonders how kind the young man was in the past to have been bestowed by an appearance like this.
And of course, he also remembers the unfair fate of the young man. Feng Xue sadly looked away and focus his eyes on the road.
It was beautiful, but it was also tragic. His miserable fate was naturally linked to that face.
"Turn around."
Feng Xue heard the youthful voice behind his back. He step on the brake and turned his eyes to the young man. Is he hungry?
Lian Zhinan requested softly, "Stop at that street." He pointed on the left side.
Feng Xue was confused, "Young master, why are you going to that place?"
"Obviously to live."
"But young master, boss bought you a new villa in the outskirt of the city! How can you live in that?"
Feng Xue became hysterical. His boss clearly stated that the young man would live in the villa he bought. It has all he needs and everything was entirely arranged. His new assistant and manager were waiting for him.
Lian Zhinan furrowed his eyebrow, annoyed and angry, "I don't care about that villa." He was about to push the door opened.
Feng Xue panicked and agreed instantly. His boss also stated that he should follow the young man's request. He slowly drove to the place where the young man pointed and sneered immediately after seeing the poor apartment.
It was not actually poor. Lian Zhinan rented this apartment thanks to Yan Shen. It was remoted and cheap, he wanted to save money. He went to get the things at the back of the car and refused the help of the assistant. He does not have many things, it was only few clothes and stuff. Besides, the apartment was already arranged by Yan Shen, Lian Zhinan does not need to worry.
Feng Xue helplessly watched the young man's figure completely disappeared.
The apartment isn't big, but it was enough for a one-person like Lian Zhinan. There are already stuffs that was prepared by Yan Shen, so Lian Zhinan doesn't need to worry. After tidying up, Lian Zhinan collapse on the bed and completely drifted himself to sleep.
He was suddenly awakened by the ringing of the bell. Lian Zhinan was confused. Yan Shen is the only person who knew this place, and he was currently busy filming his new movie this time, who is it?
Bewildered, Lian Zhinan wore his slippers and opened the door slowly. However, he was instantly filled with regret upon seeing Chu Yan's calm face.
"Why are you here? Haven't I told you that I don't want to see your face?" Lian Zhinan harshly said.
Chu Yan weakly smiled, "Xiao Lian, this apartment is too small and dangerous for you. The villa that I bought, it was for you."
"Chu Yan, how many times do I have to tell you that I want nothing to do with you at all?"
"Xiao Lian…"
"Don't appear in front of me again." Lian Zhinan did not wait for his response and closed the door with the bang.
At this time, Chu Yan really didn't appear at his front anymore. Lian Zhinan familiarize himself with this apartment first before finally accepting Yan Shen's offer.
Su Ran is one of the golden agent in the top company of the entertainment world. Everyone would lose counts on how many artists did she turned into stars. She was just about to enjoy her vacation and her current artist was transferred to a suitable agent.
Su Ran pressed the car wheel impatiently. She really wanted to swallow her boss and expressed her grievances. Recently, her boss suddenly said that she was assigned to a new artist. She is Su Ran! She was never been assigned for the new artist.
Thinking about her new artist, she became more annoyed. No pictures and just a name. How could she possibly react to this?
She grew more impatient as she went closer to her destination. After a couple of minutes, she arrived at the apartment. Su Ran narrowed her eyes completely.
Why is the boss insisting of her being the agent of this newcomer? There are many suitable agents for this newcomer in the company.
Could it be… this is her boss's canary?
Her mouth widened by what she thought. Her boss is one of the outstanding bachelor in today's generation, handsome in appearance and talented in business. There are no rumors or scandals that were linked to her boss, and now… Even if Su Ran think deeply, the conclusion would always be the same. If this newcomer is not her boss's canary, then why would her boss take care of him personally? Even attending a golden agent like her to be assigned to him?
Her thoughts ran wild, and it was difficult for her to give a good impression to this mysterious person. However, as she was debating and privately cursing, her mind went blank upon seeing a figure outside the apartment.
Su Ran had seen almost every kind of beauties in the entertainment industry. There are those who exude a natural charm that no one could ever resist, and there are also some who were like a jade, elegant in manner and soft in features. But none of this description could suit the young man.
Su Ran lost her focus and almost crashed herself in the tree. Her eyes trembled as if contemplating whether this young man is just her illusion or it was really a real fantasy.
Lian Zhinan approached the car in a slow yet steady pace. Her calm yet menacing eyes were framed by his long eyelashes, hallow and mysterious. He knocked on the car breaking the illusion of Su Ran.
The daze golden agent quiver. She could barely stabilize herself and asked: "A-are you Lian Zhinan?"
Lian Zhinan nodded. He was really beautiful. Gorgeous to the point of outrageous. The mix between the fragility of feminism and the fierce force of masculinity. It was difficult to ignore his presence.
Su Ran finally stabilize herself. She opened the door and Lian Zhinan slowly entered the car. Instantly, the strange yet addicting scent penetrated Su Ran's nose. She gasped and tried to find her composure.
Not only he was handsome, he was also smells good!
She turned around and inspect Lian Zhinan again. Su Ran exclaimed internally. She found no flaws based on his appearance and etiquette. The bad impression she had a while ago instantly vanished.
"I'm Su Ran. Your agent." She introduced professionally. Su Ran looked at the young man again and added, "I would take care of you from now on. Do you have a social account?"
Lian Zhinan shook his head.
Su Ran nodded, immediately understanding. It was impossible not to be noticed with that kind of face, not unless the other had a private life.
Su Ran: "I will create an account for you." She then looked at his face again, "Zhinan, I won't interfere with your private affairs but as your agent, I will ask you, what is your relationship with the president?"
Lian Zhinan raised his eyebrows, confused: "Who's the president?"
None can blame him. Yan Shen only said that he will arrange all things for him, and he doesn't need to worry. So for who is this president, Lian Zhinan had no idea about him.
Yan Entertainment is one of the most successful entertainment company. Su Ran almost lost her eyeballs by perceiving how this young man's naivety took place.
He doesn't have social account, and he doesn't even know their president?
Is he perhaps scammed? Deceived into signing a contract?
Su Ran erased her thoughts and smiled nicely, "Zhinan does not know our boss? Then how did you manage to get a contract?"
"Yan Shen said that he referred me to his boss." Lian Zhinan answered plainly.
Su Ran nodded. Yan Shen is one of the promising artist in their company. He was talented, handsome, and kind. And he was also the lost younger brother of their president.
"Yan Shen is our president's younger brother. It's not surprising that you manage to get a contract."
Lian Zhinan furrowed his eyebrows. He was confused. Yan Shen is the younger brother of the president? He only knew that Yan Shen had one sibling.
He couldn't process this instantly. He wanted to clarify, "Is Yan Li the president?"
Su Ran's eyebrows furrowed and nodded. Had she mistaken? I thought this young man is the president's lover, but he doesn't even know the president's name!
Lian Zhinan's lips pursed and did not voice out his thought. Yan Li is one of his older brother's friend, but Lian Zhinan was not familiar with his face. He only knew Chu Yan.
Su Ran wanted to speak more, but she perceived that Lian Zhinan dislikes talking too much. She zips her mouth and admired the serene beauty.
Damn. She could already imagine the turmoil this face could create in the entertainment world.
