Huayu: Enjoy Yourself

Chapter 99 Zeng Li's Interception

As the boss, Chen An felt he still needed to visit his company. 🐉🐸 ➅❾ⓈⓗỮ乂.Ć𝐎𝕞 🐼💙

In the past few days, Chen An has been going to work on time with Zhao Xiong's help.

As soon as I arrived at the company, I went straight into the office.

I sat in the boss's swivel chair and stayed in the office.

In March, an indelible website in the history of the Internet was born: Tianya was successfully launched.

Several new sections have been added, and there are quite a few users with an absurdly high level of activity.

Chen An also registered an account, but instead of the usual one, he changed it to "I'm really a director" and blended in.

In the two columns of Arts and Literature Essays and News Commentary, he offers his insights.

It feels pretty good to not have to carry labels or be subjected to fabricated stories by netizens.

Just as Chen An was at the hydrology station, there was a knock on the door, and then the door was opened.

Looking up, I saw Zeng Li walk in, wearing white shoes, blue jeans, a white t-shirt with a white shirt tied around her waist, and she closed the door and walked over quickly.

"Brother An, this is the first time I've met you at the company."

"What are you talking about? I'm always working in the office. You haven't seen me because you went out to film a movie."

Chen An heard the other person talking nonsense as soon as they entered the room, and quickly retorted.

"You haven't taken on any scripts, so why are you here instead of attending classes at school? Can't you learn from Kun'er? After class, you go to the theater to learn."

"Brother An, you're just making excuses. I only came because I didn't have classes. You're still studying too, so you haven't been to school either."

Zeng Li plopped down in front of Chen An's desk, crossed her arms over the computer, and spoke.

Looking at him like this, Chen An thought, "How come he's really developing into a savage girlfriend in this role? He wasn't like this before."

"I'm not going to argue with you. I can't win an argument with you, and you'll just start crying again. So, what's wrong?"

"Yesterday, Sister Xiaoyu found me a script. It's for a TV series, but I've never done it before. I'd like you to take a look at it for me. Brother An, could you take a look?"

Xiaoyu was the agent and assistant assigned to the other party by the company. As she spoke, she took out a script from her bag and handed it to Chen An.

Chen An took the book and saw the title, "Young Justice Bao." He thought, "Isn't this the show starring Zhou Jie and Li Xuexue? I remember it was quite popular."

"Who are you going to play?" Chen An asked.

Zeng Li thought for a moment and said, "Her name is Ling Chuchu, she's the female lead. But I know Bao Qingtian, what the heck is Young Bao Qingtian? Brother An, what do you think?"

Her eyes blinked rapidly, looking at Chen An with bright, sparkling eyes.

She debuted at a high level, starting with a record-breaking movie that swept the nation, instantly becoming a sensation across China and East Asia. She has only taken on a few movies since then and has not yet tried television dramas.

On the one hand, she had never tried it before and was unsure, and on the other hand, she wanted to meet Chen An.

Chen An looked at the script in his hand. It was similar to what he remembered. This was the TV series that was a huge hit in his previous life, except that the role that originally belonged to Li Xuexue had been taken by Zeng Li.

He flipped through it twice and handed it back to the other person.

"No problem, you can accept the script, it's good."

"You're being so perfunctory, Brother An. I'm one of your few artist employees, and you said it was okay without even looking at it properly."

"Don't worry about it, if I say it's okay, then it's okay. Just act it out."

Chen An ignored the other person's sullen appearance, waved his hand to indicate that he would listen to him and that if he said it was okay, then it was okay.

"Okay, I'll take it. If it fails, Brother An, you'll have to make another movie for me." Zeng Li said with a sly expression as she took the script.

Chen An waved his hand dismissively, indicating that Chen An was dreaming. "What are you thinking? I guarantee you'll succeed. I don't have that many movies. Don't bother me while I'm working."

The task of showing off online is still a long and arduous one. As for making movies, I just finished filming and I don't want to do anything else.

Zeng Li noticed that Chen An was staring at the large computer in front of him. She peeked over and saw that Chen An was chatting and commenting on a computer website.

"Brother An, are you still playing around? Aren't you afraid of getting caught by netizens again?"

"Don't talk nonsense. If you have nothing to do, go back and read the script. I'm collecting information on netizens' preferences and analyzing their movie-watching trends. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

"You're just talking nonsense."

Zeng Li didn't believe Chen An's explanation at all; Chen An's previous shady dealings, when caught, didn't go by that explanation.

Just then, there was another knock on the door, which was then opened. Yu Jinghong, who walked in, looked up from the doorway and saw two people who seemed to be huddled together.

His face contorted for a moment before returning to normal.

The two who were arguing stopped. Chen An looked up, and Zeng Li turned around. They both noticed the newcomer.

Yu Jinghong stood at the door with a smile on her face, quietly watching the two of them. "It seems I've come at the wrong time."

Upon hearing the voice, Chen An felt a change in his DNA and suddenly had an urge to say, "No, you've come at just the right time."

However, he quickly restrained himself and asked, "What do you mean by 'not the right time'? I don't understand what you're saying. Do you have something to say?"

Nothing much happened in the past few days, but why did they all come today, and even all at the same time? It's really a turbulent time.

"Nothing much, just checking in with my boss, in case he forgets about me someday."

Yu Jinghong was smiling slightly, looking very casual, but Chen An felt that she was being incredibly sarcastic.

Zeng Li, who was standing in front of the table, also felt the presence of the other person. The already quiet office became even quieter as soon as the other person entered.

"Sister Jinghong, what are you talking about? I went through a lot of trouble to get you signed, how could it be like what you said?"

"Who knows?"

As she spoke, Yu Jinghong stepped forward and walked up to the two of them.

Compared to Zeng Li's youthful attire, she wore high heels, fitted pants and a top, with a long robe draped over her shoulders and tied at the waist with a belt. Her face was simply made up, but her lips were bright red, giving her an intellectual look.

He casually tossed his small bag onto the table, walked over to Chen An's chair behind the table, plopped down next to the computer, and chuckled as he looked at Chen An sitting in the chair.

Chen An, sitting in the middle surrounded by the two, felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Silently closing the website on her computer desktop, she asked, "If no one's going to say anything, should I leave first and you guys chat?"

Neither of the two people in front of him spoke again. Faced with the increasingly cold atmosphere, Chen An thought he should slip away first.

The two generals under Chen An's command exchanged glances upon hearing his question.

Just as Zeng Li was about to speak, there was another knock on the door, and then Li Xiaoping opened the door and came in.

Upon entering and seeing the three people huddled together, the atmosphere became tense, and he immediately backed down, saying, "You have something to do? I'll come in later."

Li Xiaoping, who was being watched by the three people, quickly reacted and backed away from the doorway that was not yet closed.

Chen An quickly called out to her, "Hey, don't go! What's wrong? Come in and tell me." He couldn't let this rare lifesaver slip away.

Li Xiaoping, who had been called, couldn't just leave, so she had to come in again, carrying a stack of documents, and close the door before coming over.

"Ahem, you two key members of the company, if there's nothing else, please go ahead and get busy. I still have some things to take care of," Chen An said immediately, seizing the opportunity.

Zeng Li glanced at Yu Jinghong in front of her, said nothing, stuffed the script into her bag, picked it up with a soft hum, and turned to leave first.

On the contrary, Yu Jinghong watched the other person leave with great interest, then picked up the small bag placed beside her, chuckled, got up, and followed him out of the room.

After the two had left the office, Chen An blurted out, "Sister Xiaoping, you've come at just the right time."
