Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 741 Paving the Way in the Entertainment Industry
"Didn't you expect me to be angry?" Lin Ke took over the conversation.

Gao Sifei waved her hands quickly and explained in a panic: "No, no, Lin Ke, don't get me wrong, I really don't mean anything else, I just..."

She talked to me for a long time but couldn't make any sense.

Lin Ke looked at her helpless look and knew in his heart that she was probably being used by Guo Fei.

"Okay, I get it." Lin Ke rubbed his eyebrows and said tiredly.

He finally understood that Guo Fei wanted to use him as a stepping stone to pave the way for his cousin in the entertainment industry.

"Lin Ke, I'm sorry, I..." Gao Sifei bit her lip, her face full of apology.

"It has nothing to do with you. You should listen to your cousin." Lin Ke said lightly.

Although he was angry, he was not so angry as to vent his anger on a young girl who had just debuted.

"Then...should we continue filming?" Gao Sifei asked cautiously.

Lin Ke looked at her, then looked at Sister Li, and hesitated for a moment.

To be honest, he had no interest in this shoot anymore. He just wanted to figure out what Guo Fei was up to.

"Let's pause for now. I have something to take care of." Lin Ke finally decided to put the matter aside for now.

"Okay, then I'll go to the lounge and wait for you." Gao Sifei tactfully didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left the studio.

"Sister Li, what do you think?" Lin Ke looked at Sister Li, wanting to hear her opinion.

Sister Li pondered for a moment and said, "I think Guo Fei went a little too far this time. He didn't consider your feelings at all."

"Who said it wasn't?" Lin Ke sneered, and his dissatisfaction with Guo Fei became even greater.

"He wants to use you as a stepping stone for his cousin." Sister Li said bluntly.

"Of course I know what he's thinking, but he doesn't think about it. Given his cousin's level of talent, even if I'm willing to support her, the audience may not buy it." Lin Ke said with some self-mockery.

Sister Li’s words made Lin Ke even more upset. He scratched his hair irritably and leaned weakly on the back of the chair.

"You're right, he just wants to use me as a stepping stone, but the problem is, doesn't he have any idea in his mind? With Gao Sifei's level, can he become famous?" Lin Ke's tone was full of sarcasm.

Sister Li sighed and said, "Who knows what he is thinking? He is probably blinded by lard."

"Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore. The more I talk about him, the angrier I get." Lin Ke waved his hand, not wanting to continue this topic. "By the way, you just said that Guo Fei went too far this time. What exactly did you mean?"

Sister Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I have advised him before not to let you cooperate with Gao Sifei."

"Why?" Lin Ke was a little confused.

"Think about it, the fact that Gao Sifei is your cousin has long been spread in the circle, and now you are shooting a magazine cover with her. Isn't this obviously an attempt to hype it up?" Sister Li explained.

"Hype? What are you hyping?" Lin Ke was even more confused.

"What else can we hype? Of course, we're going to hype you up as a couple!" Sister Li rolled her eyes at him. "Netizens like to watch this nowadays. I'll hire some online trolls to control the trend. Who knows, we might really hype you two up as a couple."

Lin Ke immediately understood what Sister Li meant. He couldn't help but shudder. If this really got hyped up, he would never be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"Is Guo Fei crazy? How dare he do such a thing!" Lin Ke said angrily.

"Who knows? Maybe he's obsessed with money." Sister Li guessed, "Just think about it, if you two are hyped up as a couple, Gao Sifei's value will definitely increase, and then Guo Fei will make a lot of money."

The more Lin Ke thought about it, the more possible it seemed to him. Based on his understanding of Guo Fei, this guy was definitely capable of doing such a thing.

As he was talking, the sound of high heels clicking could be heard in the corridor outside. Without even looking at the person, the crisp sound could make one imagine a beautiful woman with a dignified manner and extraordinary temperament.

Everyone looked out the door in unison.

The next second, a tall woman in a black tight dress appeared at the door. It was Guo Fei's assistant Xiaoli.

When Xiaoli saw Lin Ke and Sister Li were there, a smile immediately appeared on her face and she walked over quickly.

"Brother Lin, Sister Li, you are all here." Xiaoli said with a smile.

"Xiao Li, why are you here?" Sister Li asked.

"I came over to see how the filming is going on Brother Lin's side." Xiaoli said, glancing at Lin Ke intentionally or unintentionally.

"Oh, the shooting is paused." Lin Ke said lightly, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Paused? Why?" Xiaoli asked in surprise.

"Nothing, I just have something to deal with." Lin Ke didn't want to explain any more.

"I see..." Xiaoli rolled her eyes, as if she had thought of something, "Brother Lin, Brother Guo asked me to ask you, when will you finish here? He has a dinner party over there, and he wants to invite you to go."

"Dinner party? What dinner party?" Lin Ke frowned.

"It's just... it's just a gathering of some friends in the circle. As you know, Brother Guo usually has a lot of social engagements." Xiaoli said vaguely.

Of course Lin Ke knew what kind of people Guo Fei’s dinner parties were. They were nothing more than occasions for building relationships and discussing cooperation. He didn’t want to go at all.

"Tell him that I'm busy today and let him go by himself." Lin Ke refused directly.

"This..." Xiaoli looked embarrassed, "Brother Lin, this is not a good idea. Brother Guo specifically told me that he must invite you to go."

"What's wrong with that? Just say I'm not feeling well, is that okay?" Lin Ke said impatiently.

"This..." Xiaoli wanted to persuade her further but was interrupted by Sister Li.

"Xiao Li, please don't make things difficult for Lin Ke. He does have important things to deal with today." Sister Li said.

"But..." Xiaoli wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Ke's eyes.

"Okay, go back and tell him I'll contact him later." After Lin Ke finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Hey, Brother Lin..." Xiaoli wanted to say something, but Lin Ke had already walked out of the studio.

"Sister Li, I'm leaving first. Please tell the photographer for me and let's make an appointment another day." Lin Ke said to Sister Li.

"Okay, go ahead." Sister Li nodded.

Lin Ke turned and left. As he reached the door, he saw Gao Sifei standing there, looking at him anxiously.

"Lin Ke, where are you going?" Gao Sifei asked with a hint of panic in her tone.

"I have something to take care of." Lin Ke said lightly without stopping.

"What's the matter? Is it important?" Gao Sifei asked, stretching out his hand to block Lin Ke's way.

"It has nothing to do with you." Lin Ke said impatiently, trying to avoid Gao Sifei.

"Why does it have nothing to do with me? Aren't we still filming?" Gao Sifei refused to let Lin Ke leave.
