Five years without pregnancy means you're too weak; I remarried a powerful man and had triplets

"Oh, is this Director Xu's wife?"

"Judging from Director Xu's attitude, I thought he was just an employee who had nothing to do with me."

Lu Zichuan lifted his leg, but instead of getting up, he switched his crossed legs from his left to his right, lazily resting his left hand on the sofa, propping up his chin, and looking at Xu Zhesheng with a half-smile.

"This is my family matter and has nothing to do with President Lu."

Xu Zhesheng spoke coldly, took half a step back, and gestured for Lu Zichuan to follow.

He didn't hear Shen Zhiyi faint in his office, but when he came out, he heard the employees talking about it, saying that she fainted while pouring out food and almost fell into the pile of leftovers.

At that moment, his heart calmed down for a split second.

"How is Shen Zhiyi?"

He grabbed someone at random and asked, his urgency startling the person, "Speak!"

He couldn't help but roar, his voice sending shivers down the spines of everyone in the office.

The man slowly came to his senses and stammered, "Sister Zhi is alright. Last time, President Lu, who was visiting here, happened to pass by and saved Sister Zhi."

Xu Zhesheng almost ground his teeth to powder.

It's Lu Zichuan again!

What's going on with him lately? Logically speaking, he hasn't been filming any movies recently, yet he's been appearing on set several times, and I've run into him outside a few times!

Isn't he the president of Star Entertainment? How come he's always so leisurely running around?

He wasn't worried that Lu Zichuan would fall for Shen Zhiyi, but he found Lu Zichuan really annoying. In college, Lu Zichuan used his power to steal several awards that should have been his. Last time, he finally managed to beat Lu Zichuan in the Golden Duck Award competition, but now Lu Zichuan was like a ghost, haunting him.

He came over under the pretext of delivering a computer to Shen Zhiyi.

Who knew that Lu Zichuan hadn't left yet!

He was also wearing a suit today, which was carefully selected from a luxury store, but it looked much cheaper compared to the suit that Lu Zichuan was wearing, which was custom-made in Italy.

He was so annoyed by him that he just wanted him to leave.

However, Lu Zichuan remained calm and composed, seemingly oblivious to Xu's dislike. "Director Xu, I heard your new film is looking for investors for its release. Why don't we sit down and have a chat?"

Lu Zichuan's entertainment company is very large, covering not only movies, but also TV series, variety shows, and even the largest film group in China is under his name. Logically speaking, since the two are classmates, if Xu Zhesheng asks him for help, the movie can not only be released quickly, but the publicity can also be taken care of directly, without Xu Zhesheng having to worry about anything.

Over the years, his company has produced many high-quality films, and several of his movies released last year were at the top of the charts. If you work with him, Hsu Che-sheng can avoid a lot of detours.

But in the past few years, Hsu Che-sheng has never contacted him.

Firstly, he felt that Lu Zichuan had only built these companies by relying on his family's power and money, and that he lacked real talent and ability, so he looked down on him.

Secondly, he felt that since they were classmates and he always regarded him as his mortal enemy, going to see him would make him seem inferior to him.

However, the market is not good now. Although he won the Golden Duck Award, he went to his previous partners, but they repeatedly made excuses.

The investment in this movie is much larger than the previous one. The producer and film investors are urging it to be released soon, otherwise they won't be able to recoup their investment. Hsu Che-sheng has been having a lot of headaches about this lately.

Now that Lu Zichuan has actually extended an olive branch to him, Xu Zhesheng couldn't help but straighten his back.

He immediately felt that all his efforts over the years had not been in vain, and that he had finally earned the attention of this young master from Beijing.

Despite his anxiety, he insisted on putting on an act as if his film had no shortage of investment. "Mr. Lu, you're joking. How could a small film like mine be worthy of collaborating with Jiangxing Entertainment? Besides, you don't know, recently they heard that my film has finished shooting, and many people have been pulling me aside to ask about it. There are quite a few people who want to invest and get a share of the pie..."

He pretended to be troubled: "Sigh, you know, being famous is also a kind of trouble."

Lu Zichuan came after conducting his investigation, so how could he not know Xu Zhesheng's current situation?

However, he did not point it out, and maintained that ambiguous smile on his face, his extremely faint eyes fixed on Xu Zhesheng, as if trying to see through him.

He didn't respond to Xu Zhesheng's words, and Xu Zhesheng's one-man show began to fall apart.

Just then, his phone rang. Xu Zhesheng picked it up, glanced at it, and frowned briefly before quickly relaxing.

"Mr. Yang, whom I had dinner with yesterday, is urging me to reply. I need to take this call first."

He walked out of the ward.

Only Shen Zhiyi and Lu Zichuan remained in the room.

"You saved me just now." Shen Zhiyi sat on the hospital bed. She had slowly sat up while the two were talking, and now she was leaning against the bed looking up at Lu Zichuan.

Lu Zichuan gave a soft "hmm".

"How did you end up there?"

Shen Zhiyi felt that she had been seeing Lu Zichuan more frequently lately, whereas before the two of them would only see each other once a year.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zichuan turned his head and looked over: "Naturally, I came to see how my future top editor is doing, but who knew I would happen to stumble upon that scene."

"What a coincidence! You saved me yesterday, and I saved you today. Does that mean we're even?"

Hearing his joking tone, Shen Zhiyi laughed along: "Of course."

After saying that, she asked curiously, "But Mr. Lu, why did you invest in Xu Zhesheng's film?"

She deserves much credit for the film that won the Golden Duck Award. She personally handled everything from the plot and actors' expressions to the background lighting. The tight storyline made it impossible for viewers to be distracted, and she knew it would win an award the moment it was finished being edited.

And now this...

She couldn't say it directly because she had signed a confidentiality agreement, but Lu Zichuan was, after all, her future sugar daddy. She didn't want him to feel indebted to her, even if she didn't want to curry favor with him.

"I think you need to be careful."

Lu Zichuan chuckled softly upon hearing this, casually tapping his leg with his finger: "Don't worry, I have plenty of money, I won't lose out."

Shen Zhiyi: "..."

Why did she feel like Lu Zichuan knew everything?

She was about to say something when Xu Zhesheng, who had gone out to answer a phone call, pushed the door open and came in.

The urge to chase him away had vanished from his face. He even took a stool and sat down opposite Lu Zichuan. His smile wasn't exactly ingratiating, but it was much more amiable.

"Mr. Yang said he could give me 20 percent, and he hopes that my film can be a collaboration with him."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiyi looked up in surprise. Normally, it would be considered a lot for the director to receive 10% of a film's profits, so this 20% figure was obviously just something he made up.

However, Lu Zichuan's smile remained unchanged: "I'll contribute thirty percent."
