Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lin Gantang watched as he returned to his room to take a document and left the house again.

Ha, she did not expect her boyfriend to be so forgetful.

Lin Gantang started humming again as she prepared her cake.

When it was close to noon, Lin Gantang changed her clothes and drove to the mall to get what she wanted.

“Miss Lin, this was custom-made according to your requirements. Please check it,” the shop assistant said.

Lin Gantang was very satisfied. “Pack it up. I want a pretty jewelry box.”

“Of course, right away. Is there anything else you need, Miss Lin?” the shop assistant asked with a smile. “Please feel free to browse our wares.”

“I don’t need anything for the time being.”

Lin Gantang did not ask for an exquisite bag. She put everything in her bag.

She took her things and strolled around, looking for a place to have lunch.

Lin Gantang walked for a while and was about to take the elevator when she heard a voice sound.

“Don’t be so shameless. A word from me is all it takes to ban an artiste like you from the industry.”

Lin Gantang did not know what was going on and did not want to get involved. Just as she was leaving, she heard a familiar male voice. “Madam She, I have my principles – – values I would not betray. Please look for someone else.”

“Do you think you can make a name for yourself in the entertainment industry without a backer?” The female voice demanded haughtily. “You’re still young and naive. The company you signed with is just a start-up. What resources could they possibly have? If you come with me, I’ll help you void your current contract and sign you up with Jiahuang Entertainment.”

Jiahuang Entertainment was one of the top entertainment companies worldwide. It produced countless ‘Best Actors and Actresses,’ a great temptation for newcomers like the young man.

But the young man was completely unmoved.

The more Lin Gantang listened, the more she found the voice familiar. She paused and did not step into the elevator. When she looked in the direction of the voice, she realized that it was Lin Fan.

She sneered. “Stop pretending. I know that you and President Yin were once in a relationship. But that’s in the past. Don’t tell me you haven’t given up?”

Lin Fan looked down.

She Zhongyu thought she had hit the nail on the head. “Hah! What did I expect? Of course you are. Don’t you want to be famous?” Lin Fan listened, bewitched. “Don’t you want to make money? You’re not a woman. What’s there to lose? Just treat it how you would your girlfriend.”

Lin Fan looked up, his expression cold. “I’ve told you to look for someone else; I’m not changing my mind. I’m not going to sell myself.”

After being repeatedly rejected, She Zhongyu was annoyed. Her expression mirrored Lin Fan’s frigid rejection as she threatened, “Don’t refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. I’ve invested plenty into this movie. Do you think the director won’t change the male lead If I put my foot down and demand it?”

Lin Fan clenched his fists.

“I’ve looked into your background. Without money or power, what do you have to go against me? Now, be good and do as I say, or you might suffer a loss you can’t recover from. Do not think I would be so generous as to make this offer again.”

“Despicable!”

“How can you say that I’m despicable? I’m pointing out a more convenient path for you to take so that you can suffer less. Young man, don’t be too stubborn. A wise man understands the times.”

She Zhongyu grabbed his hands, her eyes shining with determination. She had seen too many newcomers like him, so using the carrot and the stick with people like them was always best. That way, she was more likely to succeed.

Lin Fan shook her off in disgust.

She Zhongyu’s face fell. “If you turn your back on me, I’ll expose your relationship with President Yin. I’m sure people would love the image of you as a freeloader, mooching off their partner’s success. Is that what you want to be famous for? Hah! Let’s see who would hire you, then.”

A clap echoed in the silence that followed her threat. She Zhongyu turned to its source and was met with the figure of a young woman.

“Little Fan, what are you doing standing there like a fool? Hop to it!”
