Huayu: Rising from Tencent

As time went on, the atmosphere at the dinner became increasingly harmonious, and the two were chatting and laughing together.

During the meal, Reba's phone rang, and the ringtone sounded strangely familiar to Shen Ci.

Until Reba hung up the phone, he asked curiously, "《Happy Jump》?"

"You actually know this song??"

Dilraba's jaw nearly dropped, and she stopped using the formal "you" when addressing Shen Ci, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Looking at her like this, Shen Ci felt a strange sense of satisfaction welling up inside him. He nodded slightly, a faint smile on his face.

Dilraba couldn't help but clap her hands and exclaim, "This song... so many people around me don't even know it!"

This is a song with strong Xinjiang characteristics. The lyrics are not in Mandarin, and few people outside of Xinjiang have heard it.

"Can you sing?" Shen Ci's eyes flashed with curiosity.

Reba nodded, saying confidently, "Of course, almost everyone in our area knows this song."

After saying that, she joked, "Naza knows too."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ci rolled his eyes.

Reba covered her mouth and giggled, realizing that Shen Ci was joking.

At this moment, Shen Ci was like a child, thinking about how to use this song to wake Nazha up next time and see how she would react.

"Would you like to hear it?" Reba asked after thinking for a moment.

Shen Ci was naturally delighted and asked, "Is that alright?"

"Of course, consider this another way of thanking Mr. Shen for his previous help."

Dilraba smiled broadly, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons.

Seeing that she agreed, Shen Ci became interested, sat up straight, leaned back in his chair, and stared intently at Reba.

Reba cleared her throat and began to sing, and immediately, a rich exotic flavor wafted over.

When she sang the second repeated part, Dilraba naturally raised her right hand and flexibly rotated her wrist.

Then, she tilted her neck, slowly gliding it from right to left, and then lightly gliding it back from left to right.

Shen Ci couldn't help but clap his hands.

Reba was a little embarrassed by his sudden applause, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she covered her face.

"I was just singing casually."

"How do you do that neck movement?"

Shen Ci asked, and tried to move his neck, resulting in his head shaking violently, making him look quite comical.

Seeing this, Reba couldn't help but laugh so hard she lay face down on the table. It took her a while to lift her head and, mustering her courage, crack a joke:

"You look like you have a stiff neck."

These words earned him another eye roll from Shen Ci.

Seeing Shen Ci's expression, Reba found it extremely amusing and wanted to roll her eyes at him, but she held back.

"Are you full?" Shen Ci asked, turning his gaze to the table.

"I'm full," Reba nodded. "And you?"

Shen Ci nodded in agreement, then suggested ending the meal: "I'm full too, let's call it a day!"

Reba was quite surprised.

Although I haven't become a big star in the entertainment industry yet...

However, she considers herself to be exceptionally beautiful, and in the past, when she was with some men, they would always want to spend more time with her.

However, Shen Ci's attitude instantly made her like him even more.

The dinner party then came to an end.

Reba called the waiter to pay the bill, put on her coat, and walked out of the restaurant with Shen Ci.

Shen Ci very gentlemanly brought the hot bar to the car.

Reba took the initiative and asked, "Mr. Shen, does this mean we're friends now?"

"Yes, that counts." Shen Ci nodded with a smile.

Reba followed up on his words, saying, "Then if we have time, we can get together more often."

She had a good impression of Shen Ci, and given his status, she believed that becoming familiar with him would be very beneficial to her.

Shen Ci did not refuse, and Reba waved goodbye to him with satisfaction.

She watched Shen Ci get into the car, and only after the car drove away did she bend down and get into her own car.

Inside the car, Dilraba's manager had been waiting for a long time, acting as both driver and temporary "bodyguard".

Seeing Dilraba get into the car, her manager started the engine, glanced at her, and said, "You ate pretty fast."

After saying that, he asked curiously, "How did the chat go?"

"It's fine," Reba said.

"Have you found out exactly who this General Manager Shen is?"

The manager's question made Dilraba feel awkward. She pursed her lips, didn't say anything, and just shrank her neck.

Shen Ci is so young, yet he holds a high position at Tencent. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he has a powerful background.

Zeng Jia was also very curious about this and wanted to know more about Shen Ci's identity, so she asked Reba to take advantage of this dinner party to find out.

"You, really, you've wasted your time eating this meal." The agent sighed helplessly, his tone revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.

Reba remained silent, unsure how to respond.

She took out her phone from her bag and sent a message to Shen Ci, reiterating her gratitude for his help with the "Carat" project.

Shen Ci replied quickly, with a boastful remark: "It's nothing, don't keep thanking me."

Upon seeing this, Dilraba couldn't help but chuckle to herself, her fingers flying across the screen as she replied with a message.

The agent was speechless when he saw her like this.

I was initially worried that Mr. Shen would take a hard line and get physically involved with Reba.

Now it seems that their own person is the one who is completely infatuated with someone.

"That Mr. Shen has captivated you?"

While waiting at a red light, the agent turned around and patted Dilraba's arm.

Reba said something she didn't want to elaborate on: "President Shen is a really nice person, quite interesting."

The agent gave her a serious look and earnestly advised, "You should be more careful."

Reba nodded, but didn't really take his words to heart.

Shen Ci didn't mention the dinner party to Na Zha too much, as saying too much could easily backfire.

Ever since Shen Ci mentioned Reba, Naza has felt a growing sense of crisis and has become increasingly gentle towards Shen Ci.

When sending messages, she would often refer to Shen Ci as "husband," something that had never happened before.

Shen Ci was happy with her calling him that; the word "husband" had become somewhat overused and didn't have much special meaning these days.

The casting company for "Fang Da Chu" has now been confirmed; it remains Gong Yuhan's company.

However, this time the casting was led by Tencent, and Gong Yuhan was responsible for setting up the casting framework.

Gong Yuhan, with her own ulterior motives, shamelessly recommended her brother Lunzi to play the male lead once again.

Without a second thought, Li Eryun immediately rejected the idea; her impression of Lunzi was absolutely terrible!

The casting was scheduled for the 30th. After receiving the news, Shen Ci didn't pay too much attention to it, but simply told Li Eryun to keep a close eye on the matter.

What he is most concerned about now is the "Go Fighting!" project.

In "Fang Da Chu", the one who cares most about this project is Shen Ci's younger sister.

Li Eryun has already found an acting coach for Zhang Ruonan and has also rented a dance studio in Hangzhou as a classroom.

These concrete and practical arrangements instantly dispelled all of Zhang Ruonan's unease.

Today, Zhang Ruonan dressed up carefully and went to see her teacher for the first time with a mix of trepidation and anticipation.

According to Shen Ci, this teacher comes from the Shanghai Drama Academy and is quite famous in the industry.

The moment Zhang Ruonan saw her teacher, she completely forgot the way she had been rehearsing her greeting on the way.

She was naturally gentle and mild-mannered, and in this situation, she appeared even more uneasy.

"Hello teacher, I am... I am Zhang Ruonan."
