Huayu 2015, the Artist of Light and Shadow

Chapter 119 A 60 Million Yuan Mansion for Hiding a Mistress: ELLE's On-Site Event Leaves D8 in a State of Confusion!

"My brother finally fell for it!"

"He used his 6000 million yuan mansion to keep his mistress, I can only express my envy—but he used it to hide Wang Dajiao? Sigh! I don't know what he was thinking."

"Tian Dali, you're by your brother's side every day, are you just going to stand by and watch him squander money on unnecessary things?"

Upon learning that Lu Yunzhou had worked hard for a week and that the first thing he did upon returning to Shanghai was to buy a luxury house in Huangpu Bay, Cai Xukun wanted to offer Lu Yunzhou some advice.

But I also feel that I don't have any real stance.

He used his Redmi phone, which he had hidden in a corner, to drag Tian Xiwei out and give her a severe dressing-down all night.

If he had stayed by Lu Yunzhou's side, he would never have allowed Lu Yunzhou to make this mistake.

"I was only away from my brother for three days. How would I know he made such a big decision? That's 6000 million, not 6000 yuan."

Tian Xiwei also looked helpless.

Faced with Cai Xukun's criticisms, she was powerless to object for the first time.

"Why."

The two of them sighed together.

A little while later, Liu Haocun called Tian Xiwei: "Xiao Tian, ​​your older brother is taking us to visit the new house, are you coming?"

"Of course I'll go!"

Tian Xiwei wanted to see what kind of mansion Lu Yunzhou used to keep his mistress.

6000 million!

She stopped once she earned 6000 million!

Half an hour later.

In the luxury mansion in Huangpu Bay that Lu Yunzhou just bought.

"So, do you like it?"

He put his arm around Wang Cheran's shoulder and stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking at the Huangpu River flowing in the distance.

I really want to sing "Shanghai Bund".

The waves surge and flow, the mighty river never ceases its flow for thousands of miles.

"If I say I don't like it, will I be struck by lightning?" Wang Churan chuckled, clinging to Lu Yunzhou's arm.

This house is almost identical to Tang Yan's house.

Because they are in the same building and have the same apartment layout, the views are almost identical.

Lu Yunzhou was located upstairs from Tang Yan, making it convenient for him to travel between the two places.

"The sky is clear and blue today. Why don't you give it a try? See if lightning strikes!"

Lu Yunzhou laughed and pinched Wang Churan's cheek.

"I don't want to!"

Wang Churan also burst into laughter.

For Wang Ran, Tang Yan's house was like living under someone else's roof. For Lu Yunzhou's house, it was like a nest of love.

"Brother, Cunzi and I are here. We were stopped at the gate; the security guards wouldn't let us in. The security measures in this community are way too strict."

Just then, Tian Xiwei called Lu Yunzhou to complain that the community security guards were sticking to their posts and wouldn't let them in.

If you're not a homeowner, you can't come in.

Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but joke, "Tell the security guards that you are Ms. Tian Xiwei, the hottest star right now."

Tian Xiwei laughed along, then complained to Lu Yunzhou, "Brother, I talked to the security guard. Even if he said I was the Queen of England, it wouldn't work; the homeowner has to agree."

"Give the phone to the security guard and tell him that I agree."

Lu Yunzhou knew that Tian Xiwei was deliberately testing the security of this neighborhood for him to see if he would be followed by paparazzi.

Promotional posters for the movie "The Fairy Castle," along with various clips, are everywhere in the streets and alleys of Shanghai.

News about Tian Xiwei appears daily on short video apps, social media, and UC News.

After all, this is the normal process for female celebrities to debut.

She needs to quickly and aggressively make her face known to the audience, letting them know her whole story.

Regardless of whether the audience remembers you or not, you should first make yourself known to them.

When Tian Xiwei has her next work, the audience will immediately realize, "Oh, it's her!"

"Her other movie was pretty good, this one should be just as good, right?"

If she leaves a similar impression, Tian Xiwei's popularity with the audience will gradually build up.

"Big brother, I'm coming in."

Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun found the building where Lu Yunzhou was and took the elevator up.

The elevator serves one household per floor.

Lu Yunzhou didn't know who his neighbor across the hall was either.

But inside the elevator.

Liu Haocun and Tian Xiwei stood together, exchanging glances as if they were communicating in Morse code.

Tian Xiwei blinked: "Cunzi, there shouldn't be anything wrong with my eyes, right?"

Liu Haocun closed his eyes and said, "No. It's Jing Tian!"

-

Tian Xiwei took a deep breath: "She's not going up with us, is she?"

Liu Haocun shook his head slightly: "Probably not. Wang Cheran is still upstairs. What could Jing Tian be doing up there? And having an affair isn't something that happens today."

Just as the two were exchanging glances, Jing Tian suddenly coughed softly, presumably having finally mentally prepared herself.

She gracefully smoothed her slightly wavy long hair, turned her head, and smiled at Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun: "Do you live here too?"

Finished!

She recognized us!

Liu Haocun gave Jing Tian an awkward smile and remained silent.

Tian Xiwei nodded gently: "Sister Tangtang lives here, we've come to visit her."

"oh."

Jing Tian also knew that Tang Yan was her neighbor, living downstairs from her.

She and Tang Yan didn't have much interaction. Although they were neighbors, for some reason, they couldn't stand each other.

"Doesn't Tang Yan live downstairs from me? Aren't you guys sitting in the wrong place?"

The elevator dinged, and Jing Tian stepped out.

Before stepping out of the elevator, Jing Tian made a point of checking the floor. Sure enough, this was the floor she lived on.

These two girls came to see Tang Yan; they should have left earlier.

"goodbye."

The two did not answer Jing Tian's question. The elevator went up one more floor before they arrived at Lu Yunzhou's home.

Lu Yunzhou had been waiting with the gate open for some time.

"Brother, brother—can I speak to you in private?"

Upon seeing Lu Yunzhou, Liu Haocun and Tian Xiwei did not enter the room, but instead hurriedly pulled Lu Yunzhou to the entrance of the safe stairwell.

Lu Yunzhou looked puzzled: "What are you two doing? You're acting like you've seen a ghost. Can't you come inside and talk?"

Tian Xiwei was secretly anxious, unsure how to begin the explanation.

Liu Haocun said unhurriedly, "Brother, we ran into Jing Tian when we came up! She lives on the floor below you."

Lu Yunzhou was also somewhat surprised when he heard this, and pointed to the ground with his finger.

Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun both nodded slightly, their faces looking as if they had seen a ghost.

"Ha ha."

Seeing how nervous the two looked, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but smile, putting his arm around their shoulders and saying, "The real estate agent told me this when I bought the house. Look how nervous you two are."

"Come on, let's go inside!"

"Xiaomeng is cutting watermelons for you inside."

Lu Yunzhou didn't care at all and pulled the two of them into the house.

Tian Xiwei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother, you took a bullet for her, don't you have any feelings for her?"

Lu Yunzhou gently shook his head: "Our personalities clash. You must have seen some of Jing Tian's private revelations online, right?"

Lu Yunzhou didn't even know what he was saying.

He just made up some excuse.

However, Liu Haocun and Tian Xiwei exchanged a glance and nodded firmly.

"Understood!"

"She's a human-shaped Pixiu, and you're a golden Pixiu—if the two of you meet, you're likely to restrain each other."

"Big brother, we're not afraid!"

"Last time it was because she had been raised by someone for over ten years and was much more cunning, so she almost killed you. Now the situation has reversed, and you are far more cunning than her."

"Let's kill her!"

"Drop all the gold coins off her!"

"Cunzi, do you guys in Northeast China have any kind of guardian spirit or magic? Get one for your brother, let's slay Jing Tian downstairs!"

These two girls are making fun of themselves.

But since he was moving to a new house today, Lu Yunzhou was in a good mood and decided not to argue with the two girls.

"Xiaotian, Cunzi, welcome to our home. This is freshly cut watermelon, come and have a taste. I bought it at the fruit shop downstairs, it was ridiculously expensive."

Wang Churan warmly welcomed Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun.

We're all girlfriends. Although there were some minor misunderstandings before, it wasn't a big deal.

These two were quite restrained.

The newcomer in the group, Hu Lianxin, is truly lawless. Compared to Hu Lianxin, Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun's slight covetousness towards Lu Yunzhou even seems somewhat naive and adorable.

"Boat girl, you're really enjoying yourself again."

After finishing the watermelon, Tian Xiwei, led by Wang Ran, gave a thorough tour of the 300-square-meter mansion.

"Boat Girl, I recently passed my driver's test."

97

Tian Xiwei suddenly brought up a small matter.

"and then?"

Without thinking much about it, Wang Ran noticed a little dirt in the corner, quickly took out a cleaning spray, and personally wiped away the stain.

Seeing the room restored to its perfect state, she couldn't have been happier.

"What I mean is—your brother travels a lot for work, and you live alone in this mansion, which must be lonely and cold. Why don't I live with you in the mansion?"

"I'll be your driver to and from school."

Tian Xiwei never expected that Wang Churan would not only actually become empress, but also have a magnificent palace.

She wanted to enjoy it too.

"sure."

Tian Xiwei originally thought that Wang Ran would refuse without saying a word, but to her surprise, after a moment of contemplation, Wang Ran actually agreed.

Tian Xiwei looked at Wang Cheran with disbelief: "You agreed? Why?"

"Aren't we best friends?"

Wang Churan took Tian Xiwei's hand and said, "Besides, you're right. I'm a little scared living alone in such a big house. It's perfect for me to have you keep me company."

Tian Xiwei wished she could rush back to school that very night to pack her things and move into the mansion.

Otherwise, this opportunity might not come again.

Wang was terrified and could change his mind at any time.

"Ouch."

Just then, Wang Cherish seemed to have twisted her waist. She suddenly frowned, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked distressed.

Tian Xiwei immediately stepped forward and asked with concern, "Boat Girl, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I'll be fine after a rest."

Wang Churan felt both pleased and aggrieved.

After Lu Yunzhou went out, she must have secretly taken drugs. After moving into the mansion last night, she dragged Lu Yunzhou along to celebrate.

As a result, he almost got himself into trouble.

"Did your older brother hit you?"

Wang Churan was suffering from severe back pain, aches, and itchiness, and her whole body felt uncomfortable. Tian Xiwei thought that Wang Churan had been abused by Lu Yunzhou.

Very good!

The eldest brother has finally stood up!

How could she possibly defeat the Shandong female Chiyou?

With such fighting prowess, I won't be afraid of being bullied by others when I go out into the world.

Tian Xiwei even felt a sense of relief.

"Xiaotian, what's with that expression? You're asking him if he hit me, and you're gloating at the same time? You're even showing your dimples."

Whenever Tian Xiwei grins, her dimple in the lower right corner is instantly revealed.

There's no way to act it out.

"—Tian Dali, I challenge you to a battle to the death!"

Wang Churan thought to himself that Tian Xiwei was probably hoping that Lu Yunzhou would beat him to death so that she could come and live in the mansion.

I'd rather not be a sister!

In the living room.

Lu Yunzhou poured himself a glass of milk; he couldn't stop supplementing his protein intake.

He gestured to Liu Haocun, asking her if she wanted it.

Liu Haocun waved her hand in refusal, indicating that there were many snacks on the table. She couldn't even finish all the snacks, so how could she have time to drink milk?

Lu Yunzhou drank a glass of wine by himself, sat down on the sofa opposite Liu Haocun, and casually asked, "Cunzi, how far is it?"

How much of the 3000 million target is still remaining?

"Sister Ji told me that we have already exceeded our target."

1

A sweet smile appeared on Liu Haocun's lips.

The box office of "The Fairy Castle" exploded, and Liu Haocun, as the female lead and the main character of the film's storyline, became an overnight sensation worldwide.

Her commercial value is immeasurable.

The largest endorsement contract she received came from Adidas.

Besides Adidas, Estée Lauder's beauty and personal care division has also extended an olive branch to Liu Haocun.

Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun, acting as Lu Yunzhou's right and left protectors, began to erode Yang Mi's brand benefits at Estée Lauder.

Compared to Yang Mi's stiff face, Liu Haocun's acting was better.

Compared to Yang Mi's aging appearance, Tian Xiwei is more sweet and charming.

"That's good."

Lu Yunzhou nodded slightly and extended his right hand.

Upon seeing this, Liu Haocun was stunned for a moment, then realized something and extended his right hand to shake hands firmly with Lu Yunzhou.

Let us drink from the golden cup together, for the blades of the sword will not spare us.

"For the next while, I hope you can focus on improving your acting skills. At the same time, I'll ask Sister Ji to help you contact a good beauty salon so we can get a major treatment and a complete upgrade."

"Don't touch the bones."

"Do some minor facial repairs."

"To elevate your appearance to the next level."

"After the New Year, I'll take you to Qatar. We'll experience the exotic charm of the Middle East."

Film actors like Liu Haocun don't need to participate in reality shows or variety programs to increase their exposure.

For actors, acting is their primary job.

With works of art, you have everything.

For ordinary actors without any works, the probability of being eliminated within 5 years is as high as 90%.

With the work of "Fairy Castle", even 10 years later, as long as Liu Haocun wants to act, there will be projects and directors willing to invest in her.

"Big brother, I'll do whatever you say."

Liu Haocun was thinking that if he earned 3000 million this year, even if he put the 3000 million into the bank to earn fixed deposit interest, he would still have nearly 100 million every year.

A year ago, she would never have dared to think of such a thing.

All of this was brought to her by Lu Yunzhou.

She wouldn't dare claim it was due to her own talent—because, in terms of the movie "The Fairy Castle," it would have been a hit even if someone else had directed it.

Of course, Liu Haocun believes he does have some acting skills.

Otherwise, Tian Xiwei would be the first to disagree.

However, after the movie was released, Tian Xiwei, apart from envying her for being particularly suitable for the female lead, did not say anything sarcastic.

"Big brother, am I ugly?"

Seeing that Tian Xiwei and Wang Churan hadn't come out, and that it was just the two of them in the living room, Liu Haocun couldn't help but say what was on his mind.

She felt that she was the most ordinary-looking girl in Lu Yunzhou's company.

Of course, she also has her own advantages, namely, her super long legs.

"As long as the acting is good, that's enough."

Lu Yunzhou offered a quiet word of comfort.

Who knew that instead of offering comfort, Liu Haocun pouted and silently looked at Lu Yunzhou, her eyes instantly turning red.

Is good acting enough?

That translates to "average-looking".

You might as well say I'm good-looking but have terrible acting skills, and that I'm only holding on because of my face. I'd probably be happier that way!

There are so many good-looking people in this world. But do you know how difficult it is to evoke that feeling of heartache and empathy in others?

"You are unique."

"Don't underestimate yourself."

Lu Yunzhou sat down next to Liu Haocun, gently patted her shoulder, and said critically, "However, to be frank, that last moment was poorly acted."

"The rhythm was off. I failed to let the emotions build up layer by layer and seep into my heart."

"Your eyes turned red too quickly. I hadn't even caught your emotional change yet. You're going to unleash your full power right away. That won't work."

"You need to look at me first, then lower your head and use small gestures to express your inner emotions, such as constantly twisting your fingers, pursing your lips, or deliberately not looking at me, and struggling with yourself."

"About a few seconds, the exact duration depends on your observation—you need to discreetly observe me during this process to see if my emotions change because of your subtle actions."

"At that moment, I was observing you, trying to figure out if you were acting, if you cared about me and wanted to comfort me, or if you were feeling annoyed—you have to have different solutions for different situations."

"You can't just start acting!"

"What if I'm really impatient right now—and you suddenly get teary-eyed? Not only will I not get your sympathy and comfort, but you'll also make me feel incredibly annoyed."

"I'll deduct 100 yuan from your paycheck to teach you a lesson."

"To avoid making a similar mistake next time."

"Remember, being a good 'green tea' (a manipulative, seemingly innocent girl) is extremely difficult. It requires beauty, emotional intelligence, strategy, and a perfect blend of body language—any woman who can play the 'green tea' role well could definitely win an Oscar!"

Another failure!

Liu Haocun seems to have been given similar advice before.

Who was it again?

Huang Yida.

Lu Yunzhou's tea-tasting skills are even better than Huang Yida's.

"Brother, here's 100 yuan for you."

Playing the role of a scheming woman in front of Lu Yunzhou was simply showing off one's limited skills before an expert, and only brought shame upon oneself.

Fortunately, Tian Xiwei wasn't there, otherwise Liu Haocun felt he would have been laughed to death.

"Use this 100 yuan to buy rice balls for breakfast tomorrow morning. Consider it your treat to breakfast."

Seeing Liu Haocun's aggrieved look, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but laugh.

These kinds of days are really interesting.

"By the way, Xiao Cun, I'm planning to take Xiao Tian to the ELLE Style Awards in a couple of days. Don't have any other ideas in mind."

Lu Yunzhou felt that Liu Haocun already had enough endorsements.

She doesn't need many fashion resources.

Tian Xiwei also needs his help to guide her, to make more connections with fashion editors, and to help her earn more money.

They're all my younger sisters, I have to treat them all equally.

Liu Haocun is the female lead, and she has already been promoted to her peak. Continuing to promote her would not be very cost-effective.

Tian Xiwei still needs Lu Yunzhou to give her a good boost.

"Brother, thank you for considering my feelings. If you hadn't told me, I would definitely have been a little disappointed. But since you've already told me—I'll definitely give you face."

"And there's something I haven't told you."

Liu Haocun lowered her head, then raised her eyelids and secretly glanced at Lu Yunzhou. Seeing that Lu Yunzhou looked puzzled, she quickly lowered her head again, pretending to feel guilty.

After a while, Liu Haocun raised his head again, quickly glanced at Lu Yunzhou, and a flicker appeared in his dark eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Yunzhou nodded slightly and commented, "You've got some rhythm this time. But you're still lacking some variation. You need to treat me like a defender; you need to break through my mental defenses. Those fakes you made just now didn't faze me at all."

"Big brother!"

Liu Haocun was immediately enraged. She hadn't acted at all, but Lu Yunzhou treated her like a scheming actress.

"Okay, just kidding."

Lu Yunzhou picked up his milk cup, took a sip, lay down on the sofa, and his expression turned serious: "Speak, what is it?"

Liu Haocun said hesitantly, "Director Zhang Yimou contacted me through my teacher and asked if I could be his leading lady in an art film. The film was called 'One Second'."

That's fate.

An inescapable fate.

But since Zhang Yimou took the initiative to invite Liu Haocun, Lu Yunzhou certainly wouldn't stop Liu Haocun. What would it look like if word got out?

Liu Haocun is a contracted artist with his company, not someone he has banned from working with.

"no problem."

Lu Yunzhou thought for a few seconds and then agreed, even saying happily, "Our Xiao Cun is really amazing. The Imperial Advisor personally came to invite you."

"The Imperial Advisor is very rich. Don't try to save money for him. Let Sister Ji help you get a higher salary—you should ask for the same amount as the male lead, not a penny less."

"Now, you're more important than any of them!"

Hearing Lu Yunzhou agree, Liu Haocun was overjoyed, nodding repeatedly and saying, "Brother, don't worry! You made me famous so I could help you make money. Anyone who tries to take advantage of me or lower my pay, I'll kick them to death!"

"Yes, that's it."

Lu Yunzhou nodded firmly, then added a few more instructions: "When you're filming outside, remember to bring several bodyguards. Be careful of your safety. If anything happens, call me immediately."

"Um.

""

Seeing how much Lu Yunzhou cared for him, Liu Haocun felt a warm glow in his heart, and his eyes welled up with tears.

She glanced around the room; Tian Xiwei and Wang Ran were doing something inside, making no sound at all, and had even closed the door.

It's unlikely to be released anytime soon.

At that moment, Liu Haocun suddenly got a little carried away. She quickly hugged Lu Yunzhou's neck, kissed his cheek, and then sat back down, casually starting to eat snacks.

Lu Yunzhou took out a tissue, wiped the drool from his cheek, glared at Liu Haocun, and asked in a low voice, "You're not wearing lipstick, are you?"

"no."

Liu Haocun shook his head, then chuckled.

We finally got to kiss.

Although I didn't get to drink the porridge, at least I got to taste some of it.

"Don't do that again next time."

Lu Yunzhou warned Liu Haocun: "At least give me a hint beforehand. Play it by your rhythm, get me going, don't force your way through. Do you think you're LeBron James? You have no grace whatsoever."

After Lu Yunzhou finished speaking, he got up and went to the room to see what Wang Ran and Tian Xiwei were up to, and why they were so quiet.

"Knock knock".

Lu Yunzhou knocked on the door and called out from outside, "Are you hungry? I'm about to go out to eat."

-

"They're here."

Wang Ran responded from inside the room.

After a long while, the door was opened, and Lu Yunzhou saw that the two of them had hair that looked like a bird's nest, wondering what kind of trick they were playing.

Tian Xiwei smoothed her hair and ran out with a smile to Lu Yunzhou, saying, "Big brother, Chuanmei agreed to let me move in with you. Please take good care of me in the future."

"Turn your head around."

Lu Yunzhou noticed something, pinched Tian Xiwei's chin, and used his fingers to turn her face towards him: "Why does it look like a footprint?"

"Hehe—haha—um, I don't know either."

Tian Xiwei secretly glanced at Wang Churan, thinking to herself: You're too ruthless. That kick to my face even left a footprint.

Are you trying to kick me to death?

Fortunately, I, Xiao Tian, ​​am made of steel. If it were Liu Haocun, you would probably have kicked me to death.

"Let's go out to eat."

Lu Yunzhou was unaware of what had happened between Wang Ran and Tian Xiwei. Standing next to Wang Ran, he gently tugged at her arm.

Wang Ran forced a smile.

As for what exactly happened in the room—Lu Yunzhou didn't ask, and Wang Ran wouldn't say. Tian Xiwei, of course, wouldn't utter a word either.

This became a permanent secret.

"Brother, I'm injured today, could you order me some Texas-style braised chicken? I'm really craving it."

"Brother, don't listen to Xiao Tian. Why order Texas-style braised chicken? Let's just grab something to eat downstairs."

"Brother, let's go eat Italian food to celebrate our housewarming."

The four of them went downstairs for dinner and chatted casually.

However, Lu Yunzhou sensed something was off about the atmosphere. The three seemed to be implying something, but he couldn't quite understand it.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, the elevator stopped for a moment.

-

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yunzhou suddenly saw Jing Tian appear outside the elevator door.

At this moment, Jing Tian was also stunned to see Lu Yunzhou flirting with three girls in the elevator.

She glanced at Lu Yunzhou's face, then at Wang Churan, who was holding Lu Yunzhou's arm.

Then she saw Tian Xiwei, who was pulling and tugging at Lu Yunzhou, and Liu Haocun, whose eyes were fixed on Lu Yunzhou, on the other side.

Jing Tian suddenly remembered a tidbit of gossip she'd seen online, and gritted her teeth as she asked, "These are your three girlfriends?"

"Sister Tian, ​​you've misunderstood. It's just our company team building activity."

"7

Lu Yunzhou, of course, refused to admit it no matter what.

Even if I dated 10 girlfriends, what does that have to do with Jing Tian?

"Heh. I'm not blind."

Jing Tian chuckled coldly a few times, but didn't ask any further questions.

There are all sorts of strange things happening in this circle—but seeing Lu Yunzhou, who was a pure and innocent young man a year ago, transformed into what he is now, she still felt a pang of indescribable emotion.

"Take it easy."

Upon arriving at the underground parking garage, Jing Tian whispered a few words of advice in Lu Yunzhou's ear.

Sitting in the car, Jing Tian wished she could expose Lu Yunzhou to the paparazzi she knew.

She couldn't explain why, but she was just unhappy.

That bastard Lu Yunzhou refused to date me, but then he found three girlfriends—the rumors were actually true.

There's no smoke without fire.

"Who is so resourceful that they know even this little secret?"

If Jing Tian hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes today, she would have completely dismissed the rumors circulating online as nonsense.

But Jing Tian saw it with her own eyes, and Lu Yunzhou didn't deny it, so Jing Tian realized that the news on the internet was probably true.

"But why did you choose to become my neighbor?"

"Showing off in front of me every day?"

"Is this interesting?"

"And last night, and the night before—I knew it! I kept hearing a ghostly wailing sound. Turns out it was you, you wretched thing, who caused it!"

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Jing Tian paused, "It came from upstairs last night, it must have been that damned Lu Yunzhou—"

But the sound came from downstairs the night before last! Who could it be?

"It looks like Tang Yan is downstairs!"

"When did Tang Yan find a boyfriend?"

Jing Tian did not involve Lu Yunzhou and Tang Yan together.

After all, Lu Yunzhou always took the young girl with him when he went out; Tang Yan was just his business partner.

Besides, if Lu Yunzhou and Tang Yan were having an affair, there's no way he would live upstairs from Tang Yan and bring a young girl to her house.

This is a huge disregard for Tang Yan.

"Xiaotian, take good care of your injury. In a couple of days, I'll take you to a fashion event."

After dinner, Lu Yunzhou called a car to take Tian Xiwei and Liu Haocun away.

Before leaving, Lu Yunzhou gave Tian Xiwei a little surprise.

"I?"

Tian Xiwei glanced at Liu Haocun first, and immediately thought to herself that Liu Haocun was definitely not as fashionable as herself.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Xiwei looked at Wang Churan.

Wang Churan felt a pang of jealousy, but she also realized that she didn't have any particularly good works to her name right now, so she probably wouldn't get many endorsements even if she went to the Fashion Awards.

Taking Tian Xiwei to this fashion awards ceremony would be the best approach.

Because Tian Xiwei is indeed able to access some fashion resources.

During work hours, Lu Yunzhou is always very shrewd and won't let personal feelings get in the way or show too much favoritism towards any one person.

"Xiaotian, you need to work hard and get more fashion endorsements!"

Wang Ran told Tian Xiwei not to overthink it, because no matter how much money Tian Xiwei earned, it would all be working for her.

What Zhang Ruonan can figure out, she can also figure out.

"Thank you, boat girl, no, thank you, second sister!" Tian Xiwei excitedly wanted to go over and hug Wang Cheran.

But Wang Ran gently lifted his right foot, giving Tian Xiwei a small hint, which immediately silenced Tian Xiwei, who gave an embarrassed smile and silently took a few steps back.

"I'll say it again, you're not allowed to call me Second Sister."

Wang Churan snorted and pulled Lu Yunzhou back home.

Seeing Wang Ran's unhappy expression, Lu Yunzhou, unaware of what had happened between Wang Ran and Tian Xiwei, went up and hugged Wang Ran from behind: "Xiao Meng, how about a princess carry tonight?"

"You're the one who suggested it."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ran chuckled and forgot his earlier slight displeasure.

"You were always reluctant to play when I suggested it before. But today you took the initiative yourself—so don't blame me for being ruthless."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ran squatted down, put one hand on Lu Yunzhou's back, and reached out the other hand towards Lu Yunzhou's ankle, wanting to give Lu Yunzhou a princess carry.

"My little beauty, let's go up the mountain and have some fun together."

After Wang Churan finished speaking, she lifted herself up from the ground, intending to give Lu Yunzhou an unforgettable princess carry.

The next second, Lu Yunzhou suddenly turned around, came behind Wang Churan, and gently lifted her up in a princess carry to Wang Churan's astonishment.

"what?"

Caught off guard, Wang let out a startled cry.

Augustus II's extraordinary talent and immense strength allowed him to easily crush the mere Shandong woman Chiyou.

"Are you convinced?"

Lu Yunzhou held Wang Cheran in his arms and gently kissed her red lips: "Was it fun? My little princess."

Wang Churan just stared blankly at Lu Yunzhou, looking at him repeatedly, and couldn't help but wonder if her man had been possessed? He was a fragile little guy before, how come he became incredibly strong after just a few days?

"Do you think I'm training every day just to beat the air? Persistence will surely pay off."

Lu Yunzhou does indeed train every day.

As a male celebrity, how can he not work out his physique?

But if others try to train using his methods, they probably won't achieve anything except toning their muscles and reducing their belly fat.

If superhuman strength could be trained, there would be no such thing as innate superhuman strength.

I don't know how much time passed.

Wang Churan felt like she was about to die. Her head was spinning, and she had forgotten everything she wanted to tell Lu Yunzhou.

She has become mentally disabled.

"Xiaomeng, what are you thinking about while staring at the ceiling? I called you several times, but you didn't respond."

Lu Yunzhou went out for a drink of water and ate an egg to get some protein.

This body is still evolving.

That's absolutely amazing.

"Brother, does Sister Nan really dislike me?"

Wang Churan turned her head, staring blankly at Lu Yunzhou, and asked a question that seemed utterly baffling.

"No, I don't think so. Why would you think that?"

Zhang Ruonan has always been very magnanimous. Although she felt a little uncomfortable, she never showed any dislike or jealousy towards Wang Ran in front of Lu Yunzhou.

Of course, there must be some behind the scenes.

"If Sister Nan didn't particularly dislike me, why would she give you tonics? She probably wishes you would kill me."

Wang Ran said irritably.

"He talks nonsense all day long."

Lu Yunzhou laughed heartily, crawled into the quilt, and hugged Wang Cheran in his arms.

Before long, Wang Ran fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Wang Ran seemed like a different person. She used to occasionally throw a tantrum, but starting from the last two days, she put Lu Yunzhou's wishes first in everything, and she never talked back or argued with him again.

Tang Yan came up and saw that Wang Churan was making breakfast for Lu Yunzhou, and under Lu Yunzhou's guidance, she was patiently making rice balls for him.

I even added some fried dough sticks to his rice ball.

In addition, chili sauce was added to Lu Yunzhou's liking, just a tiny bit, no more, no less. It also had to be spread evenly.

This patience left Tang Yan speechless.

"Xiaomeng, what's wrong with you?"

Tang Yan didn't know why Wang Ran had changed her personality. In front of Lu Yunzhou, she put away all her sharpness and was no longer the Shandong woman Chi You that Tian Xiwei had described.

"You'll understand in a couple of days."

Wang Churan didn't explain much; Tang Yan would experience it soon.

However, Wang Cherish added, "Just remember to keep it a secret. Don't let anyone else know."

Tang Yan has several fake friends.

If Tang Yan couldn't resist showing off, things would probably get very complicated.

10 month 13 number.

The ELLE Style Awards were held at the Shanghai Exhibition Center.

This year marks ELLE's 10th anniversary, so the event was a grand affair.

"Yvonne, it's been a long time."

-

Around 3 p.m., Lu Yunzhou brought Tian Xiwei to attend this fashion gala.

He was received by Yvonne Wang, the new president of Hearst Corporation, the company behind ELLE magazine, for Greater China.

You can tell from his name that he is of Chinese descent.

"Yunzhou, it's only been a little over a month since I last saw you, and you're like a completely different person. The saying 'red energy nourishes the body' is so true."

After meeting Lu Yunzhou, General Manager Wang warmly welcomed him.

"The Fairy Castle" is currently showing in theaters with great success. As of today, its box office has exceeded $6 million, and it will soon surpass $7 million.

Such box office success made Lu Yunzhou an instant star.

Whether as an actor or a director, Lu Yunzhou is among the top of the new generation.

Among commercial film directors, Lu Yunzhou is the most distinctive and stylish of the younger generation.

"Yvonne, which company is the jewelry sponsor for this year's ceremony? It seems a bit tacky."

Lu Yunzhou pulled this General Manager Wang aside and muttered a few complaints in a low voice.

The Mr. Wang immediately covered his forehead and said helplessly, "My young master, please, don't say that."

She knew Lu Yunzhou's unspoken message.

It means we should get their LDC (Local Development Center) to sponsor our brand.

However, it's too late this year.

Perhaps we can collaborate next year.

The manager, Mr. Wang, skipped over that topic and asked Lu Yunzhou, "How did your conversation with the Cartier people go?"

Cartier remains one of the main sponsors of this year's Style Awards.

Basically, when big-name celebrities attend, they all wear Cartier jewelry and watches.

"not bad."

Lu Yunzhou nodded slightly. Their family's company didn't have any plans to make watches for the time being, so they could cooperate with Cartier.

However, he hoped that Cartier would bring Tian Xiwei along.

They'll endorse each other together.

If any other celebrity had dared to make such a request, Cartier would probably have told them to get lost. However, after listening to Lu Yunzhou's opinion, Cartier indicated that it was negotiable, even displaying a somewhat submissive attitude.

"Who will win the Popular Idol award this year? I think I received it once before."

Lu Yunzhou asked casually.

The CEO, surnamed Wang, didn't hide anything: "Yi Yangqianxi."

This was not unexpected.

Of the three members, Yi Yangqianxi has had the best career development.

His hard work is evident to all.

"Who's the most popular female idol of the year? Isn't it our Xiaotian?"

Lu Yunzhou certainly wouldn't compete with Yi Yangqianxi for the title of most popular male idol of the year; he was more concerned about female idols.

Dilraba.

President Wang glanced at Tian Xiwei and chuckled softly, "Next year, Xiao Tian will have a chance. This year, Dilraba is the talk of the town."

Dilraba was involved in a scandal with Lu Yunzhou and Lu Han.

After the scandal, Dilraba went to Milan to ride on Lu Yunzhou's popularity. Although, under Lu Yunzhou's forceful manipulation, Gulnazar outshone Dilraba.

However, Dilraba Dilmurat secured an endorsement deal with Dolce & Gabbana, making her a fashion icon among female celebrities born in the 90s.

Among male celebrities, Lu Yunzhou stands out.

However, this annual popularity award is usually given to new actors.

Lu Yunzhou doesn't look like a newcomer at all, even though he's only been in the industry for two or three years.

Excuse me for a moment.

Ms. Wang felt that if the conversation continued, Lu Yunzhou would ask some more pointed questions, so she decided to leave and let the fashion director handle things here.

"Yunzhou, why don't you come over and say hello to me?"

Jing Tian also attended today's fashion awards ceremony. Although "The Great Wall" flopped, she still has "Pacific Rim 2," so she has more resources than she can handle.

At this moment, however, Jing Tian was not as kind to Lu Yunzhou as before; instead, she was somewhat sarcastic and unfriendly.

Men change their minds so quickly.

He used to shield me from bullets, but now he doesn't even blink when he sees me.

The girl next to you is very pretty.

At this moment, Jing Tian felt a sour taste in her mouth. She looked Tian Xiwei up and down and had to admit that Lu Yunzhou had good taste.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Lu Yunzhou said something polite in a very distant manner.

Tian Xiwei, standing beside Jing Tian, ​​nodded slightly, then lifted the hem of her skirt, took Lu Yunzhou's left arm, and walked towards her true nemesis.

Dilraba, dressed in a Dolce & Gabbana gown, was chatting quietly with her colleague Zhu Xudan.

But in reality, ever since Lu Yunzhou walked in, her gaze had been constantly fixed on him.

"Brother Zhou, this is Mao Xiayi. Thank you for the guitar you gave me, it's fantastic. If you ever need anything in the future, just give me a call. I'll definitely help."

Several singers who emerged from the talent show "The Coming One" were invited to participate in this fashion gala.

This was Mao Huanyi's first time attending such a large-scale fashion gala, and she was very nervous, as there were no acquaintances around.

Upon seeing Lu Yunzhou, he couldn't help but come over and greet him.

"A fine sword is given to a hero. That guitar is a bit of a waste in my hands, so I'm giving it to you so you can become famous throughout the world."

Lu Yunzhou gently patted Mao Huanyi on the shoulder, showing great optimism about his future.

"Brother Zhou, I will definitely do my best to compose the theme song for the drama 'Ashes of Love.' Don't worry."

Tang Yan invested a lot of money in the drama "Ashes of Love" and even served as a temporary producer.

Mao Huanyi believed that Lu Yunzhou was the mastermind behind the show.

"Thank you on behalf of Sister Tangtang."

Lu Yunzhou shook hands with Mao Huanyi and exchanged WeChat contact information: "Let's have coffee together sometime."

, 7

Working and creating are naturally different.

The drama "Ashes of Love" is sure to be a huge hit; it all depends on how much Tang Yan can earn.

"Okay, okay."

Mao Huanyi was flattered and took her phone back home.

The other contestants from "The Coming One" gathered around, looking at Mao Huanyi with surprise. They hadn't expected that Mao Huanyi would be able to get Lu Yunzhou's WeChat.

Rumor has it that Lu Yunzhou is very aloof.

Furthermore, everyone knows that Lu Yunzhou is the eldest son of the LB Group and a world-renowned young artist. Do they even deserve to add him on WeChat?

If Lu Yunzhou gave them a cold look, the boss would scold them for being insensible.

The organizers were quite adept at creating buzz, deliberately placing Lu Yunzhou next to Dilraba.

Although Dilraba's acting skills are average and her appearance doesn't conform to everyone's aesthetic standards, her facial features are very distinctive.

Having a distinctive look is paramount in the fashion industry. Therefore, Dilraba has always had excellent fashion resources.

Tian Xiwei sat down with Lu Yunzhou, but her gaze kept glancing at Dilraba, filled with hostility.

Lu Yunzhou gently patted Tian Xiwei's hand, then turned to Dilraba and whispered, "How have you been lately?"

"fine."

Dilraba thought to herself, "What's there for me to talk about with you? What method are you going to use to humiliate me this time?"

Row.

You're a big shot, I can't afford to offend you, I'll humiliate you.

From this moment on, I am deaf and cannot hear anything you say.

Just then, Lu Yunzhou suddenly spoke up: "I heard that something happened at your company? Old Mi had a harmonious discussion with your two bosses in the office, and then left alone to take on a period drama? Didn't she say she wasn't taking on period dramas anymore? She must be in a very good mood right now, right? Haha————"

Hearing Lu Yunzhou's slightly sarcastic remark, Dilraba turned around and stared at him in utter shock:

'

How did you know?

It's normal for the company's bosses to have different opinions about the company's development.

It's normal for Yang Mi to back down.

After all, the other two are the largest and second-largest shareholders, while Yang Mi is a minority shareholder.

Besides, Yang Mi is a big star. If anything happens to the company, the whole internet will be criticizing her—Yang Mi herself marketed herself as "Boss Yang," so she can't very well jump out now and say that the company isn't hers. Therefore, she has no choice but to keep things running smoothly.

However, Dilraba also realized that Yang Mi seemed unable to control things within the company—compared to Lu Yunzhou, this is what a truly unrestrained life looks like. This is what a boss really is.

The difference is quite significant.

"Dilraba, how many years has your company been established? I remember it's been less than four years, and it's already rife with conflicts. It's truly lamentable."

After Lu Yunzhou sighed a few times, he suddenly leaned close and whispered in Dilraba's ear, "Your manager has already pledged allegiance to Sister Ji—she told me all these little secrets. She agreed to persuade you to join our company, as a token of her loyalty."

"How about it? When will you abandon the darkness and embrace the light—my white moonlight?"

After Lu Yunzhou finished speaking, he sat up straight and looked Dilraba up and down in her Dolce & Gabbana dress.

He shook his head slightly and muttered, "Dolce & Gabbana, too gaudy, doesn't suit you. You'd look much better in Lacroix's courtly Baroque style."

At that moment, Dilraba looked at Lu Yunzhou, her pupils dilating in shock.

Recently, a lot has happened in the company, and now, everyone in the company is in a state of panic.

Dilraba suddenly discovers that everything is collapsing around her, and even her manager, who has grown up with her, has defected!

What should she do?

"Control your expression. Don't act like a naive little girl who's never seen the world before. The camera is on you."

"Keep smiling. Don't tense your face, relax."

"By the way, I'm going to Qatar next month—are you free? Want to come with me? As long as you leave Jiahang and cut ties with Yang Mi, I'll give you the role of either the second female lead or the first female lead."

"Fame and fortune, both are given to you."

After Lu Yunzhou finished speaking, someone suddenly went up on stage to receive an award.

He immediately expressed his appreciation and began to applaud sincerely.

Sitting next to him, Dilraba looked very uncomfortable, her mind in turmoil.

"Brother, she's confused."

Tian Xiwei had been staring at Dilraba's eyes. At this moment, a smile appeared on her lips as she whispered in Lu Yunzhou's ear, "Big brother, you're like a devil, easily stirring her heartstrings."

"Even if she doesn't switch jobs, she won't be on the same page as Yang Mi anymore."

"Because in her heart, Yang Mi was no longer the high and mighty company boss, but a pitiful person who couldn't even take care of herself."

The company environment influences the mindset of its employees.

The competition within Yang Mi's company is extremely fierce. Dai Si was abandoned by the company after losing the competition to Dilraba.

In this highly competitive environment, how can you talk about loyalty with employees?

It looked ridiculous.

"No rush."

"Delicious sticky rice needs to be kneaded for a while longer."

Lu Yunzhou turned to look at Tian Xiwei: "I just told her that she's my ideal woman, do you believe me?"

Tian Xiwei covered her mouth and chuckled softly, then whispered in Lu Yunzhou's ear, "Big brother, whether I believe it or not is not important. As long as she believes it, that's enough."

"Judging from how her pupils looked normal just now, I think she believed it."

At this point, Tian Xiwei couldn't help but mutter a light complaint: "Dilraba doesn't seem to be very smart either."

What Lu Yunzhou just said was half true and half false.

In particular, Lu Yunzhou actually said that Dilraba's agent had defected and even told Ji Rujing about Jiahang Media's debt of 100 million yuan.

It's definitely fake.

Tian Xiwei was at the company every day, always by Lu Yunzhou's side, and had never seen Lu Yunzhou meet with Dilraba's agent.

However, it seems that Jiahang Media's debt is true.

This left Tian Xiwei speechless.

What kind of company is this? Didn't they say they succeeded in the bet? How come they still owe so much money?

The most speechless thing is that when a problem arises, the two major shareholders disappear without a trace, and Yang Mi, a top-notch shrew, has to step in to take the blame.

"Brother, with things like this, will Dilraba still be able to work properly for the company?"

Tian Xiwei couldn't help but ask a question.

However, before Lu Yunzhou could answer, she already had her own answer in her heart.

Impossible.

If it were her, she wouldn't need Lu Yunzhou's enticement; she would most likely come to him willingly, and incidentally, take Yang Mi's dog head as a token of her loyalty to Lu Yunzhou.
