Feverish actress cried after being angered by haters, but discovered the real culprit was at her bed

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei's eyes lit up instantly, and she snatched the bank card: "Dividends...my dividends!"

"Xiao Lu, what are you doing?"

Liu Xiaoli stared at Lu Yan's eyes with "doubt," as if trying to see something in them, but unfortunately, Lu Yan's unique college student gaze had already ruined everything.

"Oh, this is Sisi's dividend. Sisi lent me money for investment, and now the profits have been distributed. I'm sending it to her right away."

Liu Xiaoli remained calm as she took back her bank card, but her heart was churning with emotions.

74! How much money did Lu Yan actually make from "Crazy Stone"?

Sisi borrowed 15 yuan and actually got 74 yuan back, almost five times the amount!

Most importantly... Lu Yan is really willing to give dividends. Did she guess wrong again? At this moment, Liu Xiaoli was a little confused. She found that she couldn't keep up with the thinking of today's young people.

150,000 yuan was lent out without even an IOU. Lu Yan was even more outrageous; since it was an investment, he didn't even sign a contract.

And he really kept his verbal promise to give out dividends.

Are all young people these days so...so temperamental? I guess I'm really getting old, judging others by my own petty standards.

Liu Yifei slammed the bank card on the table and excitedly hugged Lu Yan's arm: "70! That's so much money!"

"I only gave you 150,000, Lu Yan, you really..."

"Ahem!"

A light cough from Liu's mother interrupted her daughter's spellcasting. Liu Yifei quickly released Lu Yan, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her face, and her eyes were looking at Liu Xiaoli with a hint of provocation.

  

The child playfully held up a bank card to their face and asked, "Mom, how much is 74 divided by 15? I don't know how to calculate it. Can you help me?"

Liu Xiaoli's composure was almost ruined by her daughter's sarcastic remark; the warning in her eyes was self-evident.

But Liu Yifei was also caught up in the moment and was not afraid at all. She was determined to get back at the grievances she had suffered at home.

At this moment, Lu Yan, who was standing to the side, pursed his lips, made a spreading motion with his hands, and suddenly said, "It's probably... five times."

Liu Yifei's expression brightened even more, and she laughed heartily, feigning surprise: "Wow, five times as much!"

Liu Xiaoli: "..."

It's hardened; its fists have hardened.

He wasn't angered by Lu Yan, but he was quite angry at his own daughter.

However, since there were outsiders present, she couldn't make a scene. She made up her mind that she would teach this traitor a lesson when she got back.

"By the way, Auntie, Sisi said you wanted to see me. Is there something you need?"

The awkwardness didn't disappear; it simply shifted from Lu Yan's face to Liu Xiaoli's.

Originally, Liu Xiaoli wanted to ask Lu Yan about money, but now how could she still bring it up? She quickly changed the subject, saying that she had heard from her daughter that Lu Yan took good care of her at school.

I'm here today to express my gratitude.

Lu Yan nodded suspiciously, his suspicions becoming even stronger; it really was about borrowing money.

He was right.

After sitting for another ten minutes, Liu Xiaoli felt awkward, so she made up an excuse and took Liu Yifei back home.

Before leaving, Liu Yifei turned her back to Liu Xiaoli, winked playfully at Lu Yan, and gave him a thumbs up.

......

A week after the loan saga, Lu Yan successfully obtained his driver's license.

He immediately went to pick up his first car.

An Audi A6 (1.8T) cost a total of 34 yuan after all the fees.

Lu Yan really doesn't know much about cars. He just wants a decent car that can be used for business. He originally wanted to buy a BMW, but when he went to the dealership, he found that BMWs were priced at 400,000 or 500,000 yuan, or even a million.

The cheapest 3 Series starts at over 300,000 yuan, which is unaffordable. Not to mention BMW, even buying an Audi would be a painful decision for him.

In some smaller cities, 300,000 yuan is enough to buy a house, so a car is just a means of transportation and not that important to him.

Having a car is good enough, so he ultimately chose the Audi A6, a benchmark for business sedans, which is quite prestigious to drive. At least in this day and age, it's not something that only the wealthy can't afford.

After Lu Yan bought the car, he inevitably got ripped off by Luo Jin and the others.

School days are dull and boring.

Fourth week of school

Liu received an invitation from the Legend of Sword and Fairy production team, and everything proceeded according to the original timeline.

After the character Wang Yuyan became a hit, Liu Yifei's resources have visibly increased. In addition to the Legend of Sword and Fairy series, many production teams have already approached Liu Yifei for roles this month.

However, Liu Yifei did not accept any of them, mainly for two reasons: either she didn't like them, or her mother thought they were inappropriate and refused to cooperate.

Liu Yifei didn't want to take on the role in the Legend of Sword and Fairy series. At that time, she had no ambition and just wanted to give up.

After Lu Yan found out, he persuaded Liu Yifei to take the role.

The role of Zhao Ling'er will become one of the most important experiences in her life.

Compared to Wang Yuyan from Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Zhao Ling'er was the turning point for Liu Cixin to reach his peak. Wang Yuyan brought him fame, while Zhao Ling'er is a childhood memory for many born in the 90s and 00s.

Just that one line, "Brother Xiaoyao," and who wouldn't be confused?

When the first Legend of Sword and Fairy was released, it received terrible reviews and was heavily criticized. Hu Ge was accused of having a superficial performance, Liu Yifei was criticized for being stiff, and there were also those cheap special effects.

But this doesn't change the fact that the ratings exploded.

Ten years later, the reputation of Chinese Paladin underwent a dramatic reversal, transforming from a target of widespread criticism to a childhood memory. Especially 21 years later, Chinese Paladin achieved legendary status, being hailed by netizens as the pinnacle of Xianxia (fantasy martial arts) films.

Her position is unshakeable. From a long-term perspective, taking on this role is entirely beneficial for Liu Yifei, except that she will have to endure some initial criticism.

At Lu Yan's urging, Liu Yifei, who originally did not want to participate, agreed to give it a try.

Actually, the production team initially targeted He Meidian and Li Tingyi as the actresses for the Legend of Sword and Fairy series, but for various reasons, neither of them could take the role. In the end, Cai Yinong from Tangren Media chose the now incredibly popular actress who played Wang Yuyan.

Lu Yan originally only wanted to help Liu Yifei, but he didn't expect that he would end up getting himself involved as well.

.....

"So, why should I go with you?"

In the underground parking lot of Beijing Film Academy, beside a dimly lit stone pillar, Lu Yan, with messy hair and a tired look in his eyes, looked utterly hopeless.

He was dressed in casual clothes, looking like he had just gotten up.

Liu Yifei, sitting opposite him, smiled and helped him fix his hair.

"My mom has something to do today. We originally agreed that Zhou Yang would go with me, but you just bought a car, so I'll give you a chance to accompany your good friend to the audition."

Lu Yan: "..."

This is the first time I've seen someone ask for help and act so self-righteous.

"Is your mom comfortable with us going out together?"

Liu Yifei's expression changed slightly. She put on a serious face, her cute face now showing a hint of sternness: "Lu Yan, we are just ordinary friends. Please don't say things that are so easy to misunderstand. My mother doesn't allow me to date."

Liu Xiaoli was naturally unwilling, but the clever Liu Yifei came up with a way to get Liu Xiaoli to agree to let him find Lu Yan.

Two days ago, she deliberately sulked at home, threw a small tantrum, and angrily cursed at Lu Yan.

Liu Xiaoli thought the two had broken up. She thought Lu Yan was a promising prospect and, being a classmate, might become a valuable connection in the future.

She asked Liu Yifei to ask Lu Yan to accompany her, and specifically instructed her friends to clear up any misunderstandings and mend their relationship.

So this time Liu Yifei came out with her real identity.

Lu Yan shook his head helplessly and turned to get his car when Liu Yifei suddenly called out to him from behind.

"stop!"

A small hand reached out and grasped hers. Liu Yifei grinned at Lu Yan and said, "As good friends, it's perfectly normal to hold hands, don't you think?"

Lu Yan: "..."

"Hey, let's go, let's go get the car, I want to sit in the passenger seat! GOGOGO!"

The two people held hands and disappeared around the corner.

Tangren Media has three headquarters: the registered headquarters is in Tianjin, the operations headquarters is in Shanghai, and the core hub is in Chaoyang District, Beijing.

Lu Yan, a seasoned driver, drove to Damei Center at No. 7 Qingnian Road.

When they arrived at the company building, Lu Yan shoved Liu Yifei's hand away, his face full of disgust and smugness: "You haven't had enough of taking advantage of me, follow me."

Liu Yifei was dumbfounded as she watched Lu Yan walk through the glass door, and she stomped her feet in anger.

"Lu Yan, you're dead!"

Tangren's office was on the 18th floor of Building 2. After Lu Yan and Liu Yifei entered the headquarters, they became much more reserved, with Liu Yifei following behind Lu Yan.

Lu Yan curiously looked around at the company's decor. Tangren's decoration was quite tasteful; it wasn't the old-fashioned office building type, and it was much better than Yu Nan's place.

Although Tangren is quite famous in the industry now, it has not yet reached its peak.

They had previously filmed dramas such as "The Legend of the Mermaid" and "The Heroines of the Yang Family", but had not yet established their industry position and were not yet the leader in ancient costume fantasy dramas.

During this period, everyone in the domestic film and television industry was making films based on the Four Great Classical Novels, or Jin Yong's martial arts novels, Gu Long's works, and so on.

Tangren Media was a pioneer in making bold innovations, creating a TV series adapted from an RPG game called "Chinese Paladin".

The success of "Chinese Paladin" made Tangren a household name, officially establishing its position as a leader in costume dramas and fantasy dramas, and firmly securing its position as the "leader of fantasy dramas".

Although the reputation of the Legend of Sword and Fairy wasn't very good when it first came out, its viewership ratings were really high, and it was a huge hit.

In an era dominated by martial arts fiction, the terms "fantasy martial arts" carry a different meaning.

The Legend of the Condor Heroes and the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils are stories of swift justice and galloping horses with spears.

The fantasy genre tells the story of a world where heaven and earth are ruthless and treat all things as straw dogs, and the hero saves all living beings. Compared to the fantasy genre, the two are completely different in terms of grandeur.

Who didn't, as a child, wield a wooden stick like a sword, hacking at the weeds for miles around, and fantasizing about being the great hero who would save the world?

When it comes to fantasy dramas, Lu Yan's first thought is Master Qingwei from Chinese Paladin 3. That's the true image of a celestial being. As for the immortals in those popular dramas of later generations... well, let's not even mention them.

As Lu Yan thought about it, the staff had already led the two of them to the waiting room.

While waiting, Lu Yan idly fiddled with Liu Yifei's ponytail, and Liu Yifei let her play with her hair, her eyes relaxed.

Less than two minutes later, Cai Yinong arrived. She was a very dashing woman, dressed in a smart and simple business suit, and her high heels made a crisp sound as she walked.

His aura was imposing without being angry, especially his ambitious eyes, which left a deep impression at first glance.

"Sorry, I was in a meeting, but when I heard you were here, I rushed over."

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow. In his previous life, there was a rumor that Liu Yifei did not want to take on the role in "Chinese Paladin" at first, but producer Cai Yinong persuaded her after visiting her three times.

It seems the rumors are true, otherwise a producer like Tsai Yi-nong wouldn't have adopted such a humble attitude.

"President Cai."

Lu Yan got up and Liu Yifei followed. Only then did Cai Yinong notice that the person next to Liu Yifei was not Liu Xiaoli.

After scrutinizing him closely, her eyes lit up with surprise: "You are... Lu Yan?"
