Half an hour later, Bai Lu, still brimming with anxiety, sat on the sofa in Lin Luo's office and finally received the information that the debt was due. She watched as the deposit, which had originally only been four digits, had now grown to so many digits. Her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably; this was a normal reaction. After all, 5 million yuan was an astronomical number, especially for a 20-year-old girl like Bai Lu. Lin Luo couldn't fathom the changes this money would bring to her life, but in her heart, it felt like a shining beacon.
"Did you receive the money?" Lin Luo turned around.
Bai Lu nodded fervently, her cheeks flushed with excitement, as if she was about to scream at any moment.
Curious, Lin Luo asked, "How do you plan to spend it?"
"Save...save it!" Bai Lu replied.
Fine.
Five million yuan with a one-month life and death period also had an interest of 15,000 yuan. Lin Luo could understand her decision and immediately refrained from asking any more questions. Instead, he said, "You can go to Mr. Bai later, and she will arrange your follow-up training. In terms of resources, I originally planned to send you to join the crew of 'Princess Concubine's Promotion,' but I think it's not suitable. You should train hard now and improve your acting skills."
"Good," Bai Lu nodded obediently.
Lin Luo thought of something, "Also, your stage name is Bai Lu."
"Bai Lu..."
"Well, that's okay. Let's go back," Lin Luo smiled slightly.
Bai Lu was a little surprised. She had expected to be in the office under different circumstances, perhaps wearing sexy clothes. If she was still a little girlish and reserved before, then after receiving 5 million, everything seemed to fade away. To be honest, wealth could make people forget all their worries. The only reason people felt unwilling to do so was simply because the benefits were not enough.
After coming back to her senses, Bai Lu got up and walked toward Lin Luo. "Thank you...Thank you, Mr. Lin!"
Huh?
Sensible.
Upon seeing this, Lin Luo picked up her tender waist and said, "If you can't leave, then let's stay for a while."
"Ah...?"
Phew...
On the sofa, Lin Luo blew out a smoke ring. Bai Lu's face flushed. Even though she was accustomed to it, she still felt a little embarrassed. "Lin...Mr. Lin..."
"What do you call me when there's no one around?"
"Uhh...godfather..."
Lin Luo didn't have any ill intentions. He merely wanted them to remember their identity at all times, otherwise, they might get carried away and believe they were famous stars.
"Say it."
"The entertainment industry...is it really chaotic?"
Lin Luo was immediately taken aback by this question.
"Oh, shit."
It seemed her behavior wasn't as outrageous as he had thought. After all, she could still ask this question after what she had just experienced.
"You will know later."
Lin Luo stood up as he spoke and sorted out the mess on his desk. Bai Lu also stood up, but her legs felt a little weak. She held onto the sofa for a while before she felt better.
Aware of her state, Lin Luo picked up the landline phone on his desk and said, "Ask Vice President Bai to come to my office."
Soon, there was a knock on the door. Lin Luo handed Bai Lu's contract to her. "Arrange the training and ask the driver to take her back."
"Okay."
Jiang Wanwan didn't express any surprise. Such situations were too common in the entertainment industry. She even felt that this guy was much gentler than other older individuals in the industry. The same was true for Bai Lu. After all, in the world of entertainment, sensuality was quite commonplace.
"Thank you...Thank you, Mr. Lin."
"Go ahead." Lin Luo waved his hand and wiped the water stains from the table. Bai Lu's pretty face turned red instantly.
