Pirates began to dominate the Chinese entertainment industry.

"Yes, yes, has he been acting strangely lately?" Guan Qing nodded hurriedly.

"Something's wrong?" Bai Ying thought for a moment. "Nothing's wrong. I saw him last night, and he seemed perfectly fine."

"How could someone who was perfectly fine suddenly go bankrupt? Why don't you give them a call and ask?"

"I can't call! He sent me a text message, and I rushed to call him. Why should I? It makes it seem like I care so much." Bai Ying's spoiled princess temper flared up again.

Guan Qing was somewhat speechless: "So, have you made him angry recently?"

"No... At most, I didn't let him come upstairs to celebrate the New Year with us yesterday?" Bai Ying's tone was uncertain.

Guan Qing suddenly pointed excitedly and said, "It must be this! Men think about these things all day long! You've been together for almost half a year, and you still haven't let him come upstairs. He must be angry. He deliberately said he went bankrupt to see if you still care about him. He's just testing you."

"Can't it just be that you don't like it anymore and want to break up?" Lou Yixiao asked weakly.

"Yingying, tell me, do you think he loves you?" Guan Qing looked intently at Bai Ying.

Bai Ying was initially quite confident, but after reading this text message, she became a little insecure. "I guess... I'm in love..."

"How so?" Guan Qing and Lou Yixiao approached excitedly, their eyes wide with anticipation to hear more.

"Last night, he drove for over an hour to buy me duck soup and delivered it to my apartment building. Does that count?"

"Yes, it counts!" Guan Qing was even more excited.

"Is it good?" Lou Yixiao's focus was a bit strange.

Bai Ying was speechless for a moment: "I don't know, he dropped me off at my building, chatted with me for a few minutes and then left, he forgot to give it to me."

Guan Qing's eyes lit up: "Case solved, sister! He loves you to death, okay?!"

"Huh? Really?" Bai Ying and Lou Yixiao were both a little confused.

I forgot to give it to her, so why do I love her even more now??

"Think about it, he said he was going to deliver old duck soup to you, but when he got to your building, he forgot to give it to you. What does that mean?"

He just missed you and wanted to come and talk to you late at night.

Bai Ying opened her mouth wide, her eyes darted around, and the more she thought about it, the more sense it made. Sister, you've got some skills!

That feels right, that's it!

She racked her brains, pondered deeply, and then thought of something else.

"When he left yesterday, he said the company was going to start a new script—"

"That's right! He was actually hinting at it to you, trying to put on an act for you! It's confirmed, he loves you to death."

Guan Qing, the woman's strategist, gave a fierce analysis, but perfectly avoided the correct answer.

"Is...that so?" Lou Yixiao muttered to herself, her face full of questions.

"Of course, he wouldn't dare break up with me."

Bai Ying understood!

She straightened her back and said angrily, "That Ji Yun, how dare she deliberately scare me."

"He's doing it on purpose, trying to get you to treat him better. He's playing mind games with you," Guan Qing added at the opportune moment.

"That Ji Yun! I almost fell for his tricks! He's got some nerve!" Bai Ying picked up her phone, about to call Ji Yun.

Guan Qing stopped her, "Hey, don't! If you call now, how can he, a grown man, possibly admit it? If you start arguing, he might impulsively take it for real!"

Then her new drama will be gone again!

She's having such a hard time...

Ji Yun, I gave you happiness, you owe me a role!

"What should I do now?" Bai Ying asked, her bright eyes wide open, hands on her hips, still fuming.

"Go see him directly, expose him to his face, and then give him a little sweetness to keep him hooked." Guan Qing snapped her fingers, feeling that she was too smart and could easily manipulate men.

"I'm giving him a taste of his own medicine?!" Bai Ying was instantly indignant. Why should she put up with this? "If he's so capable, he should break up with her. Am I supposed to indulge him?"

You can break up with me, but at least wait until I finish my performance... Guan Qing was on the verge of tears.

"Think about it, if you give him a chance, no matter what happens in the future, he'll owe you something, and it'll sound good when word gets out."

Guan Qing winked at her, indicating that Jin Jialu was still over there.

If you two don't get along, and she spreads bad rumors about you, it will be very detrimental to you.

If you suffer a little grievance now, and Ji Yun doesn't know what's good for him, how will he ever get along at school again!

Bai Ying understood and smiled smugly.

If Ji Yun dares to embarrass her, she will make sure Ji Yun is utterly disgraced and unable to hold his head up for the next four years!

With this scandal, he'll never be considered an actor again.

"Fine," Bai Ying said reluctantly. "This is the first time I've taken the initiative to approach him, so let him be smug this time."

Lou Yixiao was stunned.

What? Is dating this complicated now?

Why do I feel like I can't keep up with her train of thought at all? Is she just not very smart?

But she realized one thing: her junior brother was in luck!

Forget it, she should just go back to sleep. Love is not something a fool like her should get involved in.

"Alright, let's hurry up and go. I'll back you up." Guan Qing quickly put his things away and prepared to leave.

Bai Ying reached out and grabbed him.

"Wait, why are you rushing off like this? Don't I have any pride?"

Wait for me, I'll go take a shower, put on my battle armor, put on a full face of makeup, and dress up beautifully. We're going to overwhelm him with sheer presence!

If he dares to give me the cold shoulder, I'll slap him right now. Damn scumbag, if you dare break up with me, then I'm the only one who can break up with you!

Guan Qing glanced at his watch and said, "Okay, let's go after dinner."

------

"Boss, dinner's ready!" Liu Shishi called out affectionately.

She's like both a sensible and pretty secretary and a well-behaved young wife.

Tiandao Culture Office.

Ji Yun and three others sat around a large desk.

There were six steaming hot lunch boxes on the table.

Smoked fish, oysters in a gravy sauce, mackerel dumplings... all kinds of hearty dishes.

"Boss, you went out to discuss business, how come you brought back so many delicious dishes?" Xiao Zhao's mouth was bulging with food.

"Although many people left today, it's also the starting point for our company's new beginning. Of course, we have to have a big meal."

Ji Yun raised a beer bottle and invited the others to raise their glasses in celebration.

"Boss, how did you manage to win over Wang Baoqiang? Why does he ignore me when I call him?" Xiao Zhao asked curiously.

"Who told him to have such a good agent?" Ji Yun said meaningfully.

"How good is it?"

"They're so close, they're like family."

"That's really good." Xiao Zhao nodded, seemingly understanding, then asked, "Did Xu Zheng agree?"

"Soon, we'll get an answer tomorrow." Ji Yun put a piece of oyster into her mouth.

"Boss, how did you win over Xu Zheng?" Xiao Zhao looked at Ji Yun with a hint of admiration, like a model student.

These are all nationally renowned celebrities, and the boss managed to sign several of them in a single day.

Today's boss is much more reliable than before.

"You can't learn this..."

"Why can't I learn it?" Xiao Zhao asked anxiously.

Ji Yun glanced at him and said leisurely, "You're not handsome enough."

Liu Shishi held the bowl without saying a word, carefully looked the two of them over, and nodded in agreement.

"...What does this have to do with being handsome?" Xiao Zhao touched his face and leaned closer to the glass to examine himself.

Although he's not as handsome as the boss, he's still quite good-looking with his thick eyebrows and big eyes.

When discussing business in the future, should he get some work done first? After all, he'll be working in the film and television industry eventually.

Although it was considered pirated before, how can pirated DVDs not be considered part of the film and television industry?

"Your small frame might not be up to it." Seeing his increasingly determined expression, Ji Yun quickly dispelled his terrible idea.
