TN: bonus chapter!💕

Hearing that someone slandered Tao Mu so, Jiang Jingwen laughed sarcastically: “I suggest you read more mainland gossip and understand the situation. Don’t even mention Shen Yu who is just a young son of the Shen family who has inheritance rights. Our CEO Tao won’t even show any weakness towards the chairman and the CEO of the Shen Group. It is clear that Shen Yu is the one pestering Tao Mu. Our Tao Mu is just too lazy to bother with him. It is already obvious that our Tao Mu only likes to play with excellent people.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“When you say something like this, are you implying that we are not excellent enough?” The police student who spoke before snorted coldly, stretched out his hand and pushed Jiang Jingwen: “Let me make it clear for you. We all don’t like to hang out with Tao Mu because we just can’t get used to his hypocrisy. But you guys, tagging along behind his ass every day and flattering him like sycophants, aren’t you just trying to get some benefits?”

“Hey, what are you saying?” Jiang Jingwen exploded instantly, and pushed the other back: “Zhong Chengzhi, I’m warning you. You can eat indiscriminately, but you can’t talk indiscriminately.”

“Am I wrong?” Zhong Chengzhi sneered: “Everyone has eyes, do you think others can’t see it? If you ask me, Tao Mu is just an actor who came to the police academy to experience life. He will leave after filming, and may never come back even once in this life. Your currying favor is just currying favor. Do you really think it will do any good?”

Actually, there were benefits. For example, Tao Mu often taught everyone fighting tips, and even taught everyone how to pose and be handsome. He would often treat them to meals as well. But like Jiang Jingwen said, Tao Mu only liked to be with excellent people. For those who were not very good, but liked to say sour words, Tao Mu’s tolerance was relatively low. Therefore, Tao Mu was basically too lazy to deal with people like Zhong Chengzhi.

This was also an important reason why Zhong Chengzhi disliked Tao Mu so much. When they first had fighting class together, he was dissatisfied with Tao Mu’s score being higher than his. He hated even more that the female police students in the class always screamed like nymphos when Tao Mu was fighting with the instructor. A mainland boy who relied on his face to make a livelihood, actually ran to their Hong Kong Royal Police Academy to play in the limelight. Don’t know what the school was even thinking, agreeing to someone like Tao Mu coming to the police academy to experience life.

“I just don’t like how he always looks so arrogant. We already know that he was a martial arts stand-in, he knows kung fu. There’s no need to show off in front of us.”

It was because of the addition of Tao Mu, the instructors were more talkative when teaching them. Seeming like regular police students like them were not as good as a visiting student/actor. It was really funny, so what if this actor performed well in the classes? When the citizens of Hong Kong were in danger in the future, could they expect an actor to stand up and resist the criminals? In the end it would still come down to them, the police.

“Zhong Chengzhi, isn’t it a bit too much of you to say something like this?” The female police student next to him couldn’t listen anymore, and retorted, “Whether or not Tao Mu will leave in the future, we’re all classmates now. Of course we have to get along well. It’s really nasty of you to say something like that.”

“You are just jealous that Tao Mu is more handsome than you, and has better skills than you. I advise you to train more when you have time. Lest the instructors discipline you every time you are in class. You yourself are dragging everyone back, and yet you are busy nosing into other people’s affairs.”

“Hey, what do you mean by that? Who said I was holding anyone back during training——”

“Hey, stop arguing. They started talking.” Someone patted Jiang Jingwen’s shoulder: “Translate, what are they talking about?”

“The training at the police academy is really tiring. I can’t keep up with you no matter how hard I try. Mu Mu, can you help me?” Shen Yu looked at Tao Mu eagerly: “I don’t expect to be as strong as you. I just don’t want to drag everyone down.”

“I can’t help you with this kind of basic training.” Tao Mu explained with a blank expression: “You should find some instructors instead of me. I think they should be able to help you.”

“But the instructors are too serious and solemn. They speak loudly to me every time. I’m afraid.” Shen Yu said, his eyes reddening. Looking at Tao Mu with a look of grievance: “Can’t you help me? Anyway, we are old acquaintances. Can you bear to watch me never being able to keep up with everyone? In fact, sometimes I really think you are very cruel. No matter how hard I try, you always coldly reject me and push me thousands of miles away. Tao Mu, can’t you give me some hope?”

“Hey, what are they talking about? Why did Shen Yu cry? Did that bastard Tao Mu bully him?” Zhong Chengzhi didn’t know how to read lips, and he couldn’t hear what Tao Mu and Shen Yu were saying. Just seeing Shen Yu’s eyes reddening after just barely exchanging a few words, he immediately put the blame on Tao Mu’s head: “It must be Tao Mu who bullied Shen Yu. I know that Tao Mu hates Shen Yu very much, he would never show a nice face to Shen Yu.”

Zhong Chengzhi said angrily and was about to rush over and reason with Tao Mu but he was quickly caught by his classmates.

“Don’t be so impulsive. Listen to what Jing Wen has to say first.”

“Listen to what he has to say? He is clearly on Tao Mu’s side.” Zhong Chengzhi glared at Jiang Jingwen: “Otherwise, why did you lose your voice after just repeating a few words?”

Jiang Jingwen gave Zhong Chengzhi a blank look and briefly repeated Shen Yu’s words. The reason why he fell silent halfway through was simply because he was so disgusted by Shen Yu’s logic. And he didn’t know what was going on, but he always felt that Shen Yu’s words came across very weird.

“If it wasn’t for everyone going to the same toilet during the rest time. I really would have thought Shen Yu was a girl. Actually being afraid of the instructor speaking loudly. Is he serious? Also, since he is afraid of the instructor’s black face, why isn’t he afraid of Tao Mu’s when clearly Tao Mu’s expression is even worse when facing him?”

Zhong Chengzhi said eagerly: “Look. Didn’t I say that Tao Mu is bullying Shen Yu. Shen Yu clearly worked so hard, so why won’t he give Shen Yu a chance? It’s just being friends, does he have to be so arrogant. He just has some stinky money. Does he have to look down on us ordinary people so much? He clearly knew that Shen Yu was afraid of the instructor’s black face, so why is he forcing Shen Yu to find the instructor? Doesn’t he like giving pointers to others? Why not teach Shen Yu? Is he afraid that after Shen Yu learns to fight, he will be better than him in acting?”

“I said it before, people like Tao Mu do not treat others sincerely. The reason why he is willing to teach you pointers is because you are not a threat to him. If you also go into acting, I am afraid that the first person to target you will be Tao Mu.”

“Why are you so excited? I think what Tao Mu said makes sense. Shen Yu’s foundation is too poor, and what he lacks is physical fitness and basic training. Even if he asked for advice on these things, Tao Mu wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. So it’s better to ask the instructors for help instead. At least the instructors could correct Shen Yu’s form. And they are very patient.” The female police student who had spoken for Tao Mu before snorted and spoke a fair word: “But then again, our police academy instructors are indeed really serious and solemn. Pulling a long face all day long, like we owe them five million yuan.”

“Please, we are the police. If not serious, then should we smile all day instead. Do you think we are kindergarten teachers?” Jiang Jingwen disagreed. Looking at Shen Yu standing on the field, he continued to be his lip interpreter.

“Mu Mu, I don’t understand why you hate me so much. What exactly do you hate about me? I can change it, okay? I really want to be friends with you.” Shen Yu said, looking at Tao Mu with a hopeful expression: “I want to be as good as you. Can’t I?”

Of course! As long as you don’t bother me, I don’t care if you want to become the number one in the world.

Tao Mu sighed helplessly: “I think you should not think too much. Take care of your foot injury first, then go to the instructor to practice breaking down the movements. The main thing is to get every movement in place. There will be stand-ins anyway when we film. You just need to get the final set of moves in place.”

“But when I joined the cast of “Black and White” this time, my dad and brother told me that I should try not to use a stand-in. I have to shoot all the scenes that I can shoot myself.” Shen Yu thought about it and said confidently: “And I saw the script. The Yan Yu I play does not have many scenes in the script, and there are also fewer fighting scenes. I also think that if it is just these actions, I can do it. I just need someone to help me now. “

“Mu Mu, I don’t know anyone in Hong Kong. The only one I can ask is you.”

Being looked at by Shen Yu’s completely trusting eyes, Tao Mu only felt that his head was about to explode. It was like a piece of dog-skin plaster that had insisted on sticking to him regardless of his wishes. (TN: dog-skin plaster=used in TCM for treating contusions, rheumatism etc)

It might have actually been better when he had avoided him like the plague in the previous life!

Not knowing what he had done in this life to be the unfortunate recipient of Shen Yu’s attention, Tao Mu rubbed his temples: “I’m very busy myself. I don’t have time to take care of your affairs. Also, you spent so long in the police academy. I see that a lot of the police students like you very much. They all have a good attitude towards you. You can definitely ask them for advice.”

Although the fighting skills of those people were a little off. But after all, they were proper police academy students, and should be able to teach Shen Yu to look like he knew what he was doing even if he didn’t.

When Shen Yu heard this, it was not like he could say that he didn’t want to find someone else, he just wanted Tao Mu to help him. After stuttering for a long time, he still did not manage to get out a complete sentence. He could only look at Tao Mu pitifully.

On the other side, the faces of the police students who heard Jiang Jingwen’s “reporting” were not very good. Especially Shen Yu’s die-hard fans headed by Zhong Chengzhi. It must be said that since Shen Yu entered the school, these police students have been very kind to Shen Yu. Probably because Shen Yu was too delicate and slender, and was well protected by his family before, he couldn’t help exuding the aura of a precious greenhouse cultivated flower.

Fearing that Shen Yu would be aggrieved, these police students willingly helped Shen Yu to take care of his chores and work every day, even willingly being held back by Shen Yu. But in the end, despite several weeks later, in Shen Yu’s eyes, they were still strangers, and couldn’t even compare to an outsider like Tao Mu who always looked at him with cold eyes.

It was really frustrating.

But in an instant, someone like Zhong Chengzhi made an excuse for Shen Yu: “Our Shen Yu is timid and introverted. Of course he can’t hold up to Tao Mu’s shrewdness. But we will definitely try our best to make Shen Yu trust us.”

Towards Zhong Chengzhi’s words, Jiang Jingwen and the others didn’t even have the desire to ridicule. Fortunately, Shen Yu didn’t say anything more, and the instructor had already blown the whistle, signaling everyone to gather and continue training in the afternoon subjects. As for Shen Yu, who had a swollen ankle, he had to sit under the shade of a tree and watch everyone train.

Although the daily training of the police academy was much looser than that of the army. But for ordinary people, this whole day of training was exhausting enough.

For Tao Mu, the best way to solve fatigue was to go out and have a good time. After spending the night in a nightclub, all the fatigue would be washed away.

Towards this theory, Jiang Jingwen and the other police students agreed that they must experience it themselves.

Tao Mu didn’t come to Hong Kong many times in his last life, and it was the first time in this life. So he was not very familiar with the nightclubs in Hong Kong. But although not familiar with the place, he had still heard of the famous Lan Kwai Fong. (TN: Lan Kwai Fong=a popular expatriate haunt in Hong Kong for drinking, clubbing and dining)

When the police students heard these three words, they howled excitedly.

“As expected of the famous prince of nightclubs in the capital. You are also familiar with our nightclubs in Hong Kong.” Jiang Jingwen joked with a smile: “That place is the most popular bar street for young people in Hong Kong. It is said that the most beautiful girls are all over there.”

Someone raised their hand and asked, “Are we going to go to a bar or a club?”

Tao Mu laughed: “Of course, when coming out to play it is to have fun. Otherwise, how can you get the most out of it.”

Before the words even fell, the police students were all excited into whistling and heckling.

The large group of people took a taxi to Lan Kwai Fong. There were a lot of nightclubs here. And ranged from low, medium and high end. Although Tao Mu said that he was not familiar with this place, when he got out of the car he led everyone straight to a nightclub aimed at high-end consumers.

This nightclub was a bit special. It was still a restaurant before midnight, and after midnight it would become a dance floor.

When Tao Mu brought the large group of people into the place, there were already a lot of customers in heavy makeup and clubbing clothes. They were all waiting for the dance floor to kick off.

“Should we change? This kind of place is very expensive.” Jiang Jingwen tugged at Tao Mu’s sleeve and said subtly, “It costs at least several thousand yuan to open a bottle of wine here. There are so many of us——”

“Having fun is the most important thing.” Tao Mu patted Jiang Jingwen on the shoulder. Everyone soon found a place to sit.

Tao Mu carefully observed the expressions and movements of the group of police students. Because a lot of people came, Tao Mu opened five bottles of wine directly. He poured himself a glass of whiskey and slowly played with it in his hand. The other police students were already excitedly flirting with girls everywhere.

Tao Mu was sitting in front of the bar. He took off his coat and wore only a white shirt with an open neckline, revealing a delicate collarbone and a small snatch of pale chest. The hem was tucked into the waistband of his black jeans, revealing his lean waist. That pair of long legs wrapped in black jeans crossed casually. There was a careless curve to his lips, and those phoenix eyes would occasionally fall on the police students, intentionally or unintentionally, looking at them thoughtfully.

The bright lights on the dance floor emphasized the handsomeness of his silhouette and features. Tao Mu’s whole person exuded an extravagant luxury that balanced between abstinence and debauchery. When you looked at him, you couldn’t help but be moved.

So many boys and girls became like moths attracted by the firelight, one by one, or even in groups of three or five, approaching Tao Mu to strike up a conversation.

Tao Mu casually dismissed everyone. All his attention was on the police students.

After all, the reason he brought this group of people to the nightclub was not really for relaxation.

Handsome, young, rich, and unmoved by beauty. Tao Mu didn’t notice, but the more he refused, the more people were interested in him.

Tao Mu, who was concentrating on observing how the police students were drinking and flirting with girls, only felt a fragrant wind blowing by, and his shoulders suddenly had weight on them. A charming long-haired beauty with a sexy figure was already hanging tightly on his body. The gorgeous facial features were painted with delicate makeup, and a red tight dress wrapped her voluptuous figure. Under the bright lights on the dance floor, she looked exceptionally beautiful.

As an almost inaudible “click” of a shutter sounded, the person on him chuckled lightly, and her red lips slightly parted: “Aren’t you lonely all by yourself, handsome guy?”

Tao Mu frowned and kindly alerted the other, “Your eye makeup is smudged, film queen Fang?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Fang Ruoti, the winner of the Golden Crow Best Actress Award, had become the dream goddess of all otakus as a sexy stunner since her debut. She played one of the female supporting characters in the movie “Black and White”, the wife of a gangster, and had several scenes with Zhou Yuanting, played by Tao Mu. In addition, she was an A-list female star in Hong Kong, who was known in the entertainment circle for her bad taste in flirt-teasing newcomers. But right now she was looking at Tao Mu speechlessly: “Are the young people in the mainland this unromantic, CEO Tao?”

“Then let me put it another way.” Tao Mu said seriously: “It seems that we were secretly photographed by the paparazzi just now. I wonder if film queen Fang would mind if the photo of your smudged eye makeup ended up on the gossip headlines tomorrow morning?”

Fang Ruoti’s expression changed, and she quickly called her agent.

TN: bonus chapter!💕

Tao Mu’s recent itinerary: From Monday to Friday, he would stay at Beijing Film for classes, and take care of work at FlyNews.com and Xiaoheng Capital in the evening. He would then fly to Hong Kong on weekends to experience life in Hong Kong Royal Police Academy.

He was going to study and train with the students of the police academy. Among the classes on culture, Tao Mu only picked classes on the system-related and useful legal provisions. At most, he was more serious in the tactical analysis course, and his main energy was spent on daily training. Especially fighting skills and marksmanship, as well as etiquette and deportment. For example, in salutes and queue training, the Hong Kong police were different from the mainland.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Because of the filming experience in his previous life, Tao Mu actually already learned marksmanship and fighting. He was also a martial arts stand-in in his last life, so action films often found him to be part of the cast. The movie Tao Mu won the best actor in his previous life was an action movie with a lot of gunfights. In it, he played a protagonist with an unparalleled sense of justice in the early stage, only to go dark in the later stage, and dying in the end. And because he perfectly interpreted the layering and complexity of the role, he finally won the crown of Best Actor.

In order to play that role well, Tao Mu specially hired a retired special forces instructor to teach him marksmanship and fighting before joining the crew, and even went to the army to experience life for more than three months. At that time, Tao Mu was already in a semi-banned state in the entertainment industry, and he didn’t receive too many jobs and endorsements, but it gave him the opportunity to have time to seriously prepare for the role.

However, Tao Mu went to the mainland army at that time, and also learned the fighting skills and marksmanship of the mainland army’s special forces. There were still many differences with the fighting methods of the Hong Kong police and even the Flying Tigers division. Such as commonly used weapons and equipment.

For example, the pistol often used by the mainland’s special forces was the Type 92. The Hong Kong police were used to Browning, GLOCK17 and Smith & Wesson. The assault rifle used by the mainland special forces was the Type 95, and the assault rifle used by the Hong Kong police had seven to eight types alone. Not to mention other kinds of equipment. And the price was far higher than the mainland’s standard weapons.

The most important thing was that there were many guns or other types of weapons that Tao Mu had never seen before, let alone used. So the top priority was for Tao Mu to get familiar with these guns and ammunition as soon as possible, at least he should look like he knew what he was doing. So that when he joined the crew “Black and White” in a few months, he could completely imitate the temperament and actions of the Hong Kong police.

The so-called, ‘details determine success or failure’. The reason why Tao Mu came to Hong Kong Police Academy to experience life was to polish these details that no one might even notice on the big screen.

Because there were so many things to learn, Tao Mu was not a born genius. Moreover, the time he could use to study was only two days on weekends. In terms of study progress, of course, he could not keep up with the excellent police students in the police academy. It could only be said that he was barely keeping up with the training requirements. But even so, Tao Mu’s potential and strength still shocked everyone. Especially in courses such as fighting classes and gun training, Tao Mu could often compete with the outstanding police students in the class. Occasionally, when training against the instructor, Tao Mu would unconsciously use some fighting skills he learned in the military. If the instructor was not prepared, he could even be countered by Tao Mu.

So much so that after Tao Mu had been training in the police academy for several weekends, even the instructors who often had contact with him had to sigh that if Tao Mu didn’t want to be a CEO or an actor, it would be no problem for him to be accepted in the police academy.

In comparison, another classmate Shen Yu, who also came to the police academy to buy soy sauce every weekend under the banner of “experiencing life”, was much inferior. (TN: to buy soy sauce=slang for none of my business/to not be involved/to be disinterested)

Don’t even mention measuring up to Tao Mu’s performance in fighting and gun training that made the instructors so impressed. Shen Yu, who had been spoiled since childhood, couldn’t even keep up with morning exercises and daily training. When everyone got up early to gather, Shen Yu was always the last to run out of the dormitory, his clothes and appearance always messy and disheveled. When they practice running, he would always lag behind in the last spot. In fact, he would become so tired that he had to take a car back despite not even running a few steps. Not to mention during shooting practice, his posture was never standard, and he always missed the target. Ever since he almost hit the police students who were watching, everyone was terrified and on alert when Shen Yu practiced his marksmanship. In the end, the instructor had no choice but to teach Shen Yu how to just hold a gun and never let him pull the trigger.

If these were still within the tolerance of the police students, then the fact that Shen Yu couldn’t even do the daily chores well made everyone go crazy. Don’t even mention such “difficult” actions as stacking the quilt, even the ground would always be covered with water when it was his turn to mop it. There were several times when the police students didn’t pay attention, and they almost slipped on the puddles.

How was this simply an actor! This was clearly a ticking bomb.

However, there were also many boys and girls who thought that Shen Yu was pretty, had a soft personality, and was very cute. Able to arouse everyone’s desire to protect him——at least he was much cuter than Tao Mu, who was also an actor, but was even better than them in fighting class. Therefore, these students were also willing to surround Shen Yu, help with chores, help with training, and even help crusade against Tao Mu. So in just a few weeks, the Hong Kong Police Academy was practically divided into two camps because of Shen Yu and Tao Mu.

“…..I always believe that the reason the school allows people like Shen Yu to come to the police academy to experience life, is definitely as a test of our reflexes, attention, endurance and willpower.” Because in the training session of practicing obstacle running only to almost fall off the balance beam, Shen Yu was so frightened that he was crying horribly. So much so that the instructor had to temporarily stop the training to appease Shen Yu. The police students who were close to Shen Yu couldn’t help but gather around to comfort Shen Yu, and some people even called the school doctor.

The other police students simply sat on the ground on the field. Some people couldn’t help shaking their heads and sighing.

Jiang Jingwen, who shared the dormitory with Tao Mu, nudged Tao Mu with his elbow and asked in a low voice, “That Shen Yu seems to be looking at you. Why is he always looking at you?”

Tao Mu subtly glanced at Shen Yu, who was surrounded by the instructor and the school doctor, crying and looking over at his side. He had been out of the plot halo for a long time, and of course he couldn’t guess Shen Yu’s brain circuit. Nor did he know what the other person was thinking either.

“I don’t know either. By the way, are you interested in going to a nightclub?” Anyway, the instructor’s attention was attracted by Shen Yu. Nobody was paying attention to his side. Tao Mu began to secretly implement his plan: “I’ll treat you.”

“You’re crazy!” Jiang Jingwen looked in the direction of the instructor subconsciously, lowered his voice and said, “The school doesn’t allow it.”

“So we have to sneak out.” Tao Mu blinked at the group of police students: “Besides, we won’t be doing anything. Just go out to a nightclub, have a drink, have some fun, and come back in the evening.”

Having said that, Tao Mu was actually preparing for the role of Zhou Yuanting. He wanted to observe closely how the real police students reacted when they sneaked out of the school to go to the nightclub.

Of course, Tao Mu would not deliberately implicate these students for the sake of his own filming. In fact, he had already got permission from the instructor. The instructor also allowed him to take the students out to play. It was fine so long as nothing happened. It was just that Tao Mu didn’t say anything about it in order to observe the real reactions of the police students.

“Could it be that you are feeling bored from staying at the school for too long so you just want to sneak out and relax.” Jiang Jingwen had a flash of inspiration. He had been addicted to FlyNews.com recently, and naturally he also knew about Tao Mu’s past experience. Knowing that Tao Mu grew up in a nightclub, and was a person who liked to play and knew how to play. Apparently his adoptive father had opened a nightclub in the capital.

Tao Mu smiled at Jiang Jingwen and avoided answering: “Just say whether you’ll go or not.”

Tao Mu’s role as an undercover cop in the “Black and White” crew was a secret of the crew. Outsiders have not read the script, so of course they didn’t know the inside story. Tao Mu would not spoil anything casually in front of outsiders.

Jiang Jingwen smiled and winked at Tao Mu: “I’m fine. Anyway, it won’t be me picking up the tab, but if too many people go, will it be too expensive?”

Probably because they had lived in one dormitory for a long time, Jiang Jingwen and the others lost their initial restraint after they became familiar with Tao Mu. Especially after Tao Mu showed his strength in his daily training, these police students were also young people. Out of a secret idolizing mentality, everyone was willing to play with Tao Mu. Many people would even ask Tao Mu about his tips in fighting.

In order to play the role of Zhou Yuanting well, Tao Mu not only trained hard, but also patiently observed other police students in the police academy. He was very willing to communicate with everyone, and besides, he had never been the kind of person who was cold and reticent in front of outsiders. Not to say that he did not hold back at all, but in terms of training he was willing to be completely honest and share his insights.

Especially as Tao Mu had been trained by a professional retired special forces instructor before, and he was also talented in fighting. In addition, he had a good memory, and could be said to have a solid foundation. When practicing boxing, his form would be more standard than everyone else’s. In his spare time, when giving pointers for the police students, it was very easy for him to hit it right on the mark. After the training, he would also take a group of people to the nearby food stalls to eat. So all the police students were used to going out to play with Tao Mu at night. But this was their first time going to a nightclub.

Some timid ones were still hesitating while the daring ones had all quietly made their statement.

On the other side of the field, Shen Yu, who had a swollen ankle, touched his swollen ankle and looked at Tao Mu, who was surrounded by everyone, happily mingling. And pouted with discontent.

With the support of the instructor, he stood up wobbling, limped up to Tao Mu, and said earnestly, “Mu Mu, I have something to tell you. Can we find a quiet place to talk?”

All the police students looked at each other. Without waiting for Tao Mu to speak, they voluntarily stood up and moved farther away.

However, there were also students who were very curious. They cautiously walked around behind Tao Mu, relying on their excellent eyesight and understanding of lip language, ready to hear what Shen Yu was going to say to Tao Mu.

“I’m just a little worried.” Jiang Jingwen even defended his behavior: “For a person like Shen Yu, it is clear that he is very finicky and spoiled, thinking that the whole world must revolve around him.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“I think you have a prejudice against Shen Yu.” Another police student who had long been a fan of Shen Yu frowned and retorted, “On the contrary, I think Tao Mu is hostile towards Shen Yu. Whenever Shen Yu approaches him, he acts very cold and indifferent. As if he is afraid that Xiao Yu will stick to him. Seriously.”

“I just don’t understand. Our Shen Yu is so cute, so why doesn’t Tao Mu like him. The way I see it, he is just a snob. If our Shen Yu was still the son of the Shen family, Tao Mu definitely wouldn’t have such an attitude. “

TN: bonus chapter!💕

“I heard that you will be going to Hong Kong for training every weekend?”

Li Xiaoheng ladled out a bowl of the stewed chicken soup with wolfberry that had just been stewed and handed it to Tao Mu, saying warmly, “Don’t work too hard. I don’t want to see you in a few months, and all the meat on your bones that I managed to raise have ended up disappearing.”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“I can’t help it either. I’m so busy with work, and I have to take care of my studies as well. The crew will start filming in a few months. I haven’t made a Hong Kong film before, so I should do some research and gain experience first. I can only run back and forth between the two places, barely maintaining my life like this.” Tao Mu said while drinking the soup: “Besides, I don’t intend to suffer. I just have a high metabolism, easily able to lose weight no matter what I do. Don’t frown. You don’t know how many girls envy my physique. If I want to be fat, I will be fat, if I want to be thin, I will be thin. For actors, it’s like a golden finger. Yet you actually dislike it.”

“I don’t dislike it.” Li Xiaoheng gave Tao Mu another bowl of soup and pushed it over, saying with a smile, “I just don’t want you to let down all the soup that you drink into your stomach, and the fat that you managed to pack on painstakingly through bite after bite of food.”

What do you mean? I’ve grown fat on my own ability, but I’m still not allowed to lose it?

Tao Mu drank the soup one mouthful at a time. After drinking two bowls of chicken soup, he felt warm all over his body. Especially his stomach which felt very comfortable.

“By the way. Don’t always come over and cook soup for me in the future. You work very hard too. Just rest at home in your spare time. It’s such a cold day and the road is so slippery. What if you fall and break your old bones. I can’t afford the medical bills.”

“Then sell yourself to me to pay off your debts.” Li Xiaoheng always had something to say.

“Also, my work is indeed really hard. Especially after my partner has become addicted to acting and can’t extricate himself, pushing everything to me. Now, an unmarried bachelor like me just wants to get off work on time and go home every day to see a hearty dinner waiting for me. Song Ji is too far from home, so I have to come and find my partner to cook dinner with. Don’t look at us white-collar workers, it seems that we have a lot of face outside, but in fact, we have to join in cooking meals with a partner to barely make it.”

Li Xiaoheng was a quick learner, and also spoke nonsense in a serious manner, running his mouth fto amuse Tao Mu. He added: “And I am worried that if I often come to mooch food, my partner will be unhappy. So I have to cook and make some soup every day, which can be regarded as repaying your kindness in providing the meal. It can only last for a long time if things are mutual. “Li Xiaoheng said with a smile: “Otherwise I’m afraid that I’m always coming to trouble you, and that you won’t cook for me if you think I’m annoying.”

“Then let me cook and you wash the dishes.” Anyway, this person couldn’t be driven away, but only got stickier and held on tighter, Tao Mu couldn’t do anything about it. He simply gave up and compromised: “I really don’t like soup. I used to only eat soup when I eat noodles at school. And drinking soup at night makes it easier to gain weight. As an actor, especially one with heavy idol baggage, I must manage my figure well.”

Li Xiaoheng instantly chuckled and said, “Then I have to learn more about how to make noodles. So I can cook you noodles later.” (TN: in Chinese, ‘cook you noodles’ is a slang innuendo for giving head)

Tao Mu turned his head to look at Li Xiaoheng, who looked completely normal. Feeling Tao Mu’s scrutiny, Li Xiaoheng raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing!” It was not clear whether Li Xiaoheng’s words were intentional or unintentional. However, Tao Mu felt that Li Xiaoheng shouldn’t have such a glib exasperation inducing tongue.

Noticing that Tao Mu was a little gloomy, Li Xiaoheng asked casually, “What did you think of, why are you suddenly unhappy?”

“Me?” Tao Mu was slightly stunned, and suddenly found that whenever he was in front of Li Xiaoheng, it was as if his emotions were always fluctuating.

Seeing Tao Mu’s thoughtful silence, Li Xiaoheng suddenly said, “Even if you still refuse to accept my pursuit, we are still good friends, right?”

Tao Mu paused for a while before coming back to his senses. Hesitantly, he replied, “…..En!”

“Then that’s fine. Even if we’re not lovers, we’re friends. When friends get along in private, of course they would choose the most relaxed attitude. What do you have to worry about?” Li Xiaoheng laughed and joked: “Afraid that I will turn from fan to anti?”

“Well, no.” It was not that Tao Mu was too confident in his own charm. He was just very confident in Li Xiaoheng’s IQ and shrewdness. He felt that a bigwig like Li Xiaoheng would never waste time doing such inane things.

But——

Tao Mu smiled and said, “You’ve used the terminology of the fan circle quite proficiently recently. You also know that fans can turn into antis.”

Li Xiaoheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked with a smile: “If I said I wore a sock puppet to join your fan club would you believe it?”

Tao Mu: “…..”

Tao Mu: “!!!”

Tao Mu suddenly reacted: “…..Hah?”

“You, you actually wore a sock puppet to join my fan club?” Tao Mu was shocked and stammered: “You wouldn’t be that idle, would you?”

“You seem to be very shocked.” Li Xiaoheng picked up the empty bowl that Tao Mu had placed on the coffee table, took it into the kitchen, washed it, and put it in the cupboard: “Why?”

“You are actually asking me why?” Tao Mu was so shocked that he followed Li Xiaoheng into the kitchen: “Why didn’t I know that you actually like star chasing?”

“I’m not chasing stars.” Li Xiaoheng stated the facts very calmly: “I’m just chasing you.”

He was caught off guard by Mr. Li’s old-fashioned and cheesy words of love. Tao Mu was about to collapse: “But you can’t join my fan club! It’s too awkward.”

“Why are you embarrassed, shouldn’t you be happy?” After washing his hands, Li Xiaoheng walked up to Tao Mu and joked with a smile, “You have a fan who is a domineering CEO. One who has good looks and can earn money to support the family. When you are busy I can also help you with the work, and I am willing to accompany you to cook and wash dishes when you are free. I am willing to follow you for a lifetime. No matter what you do, you have a die-hard fan in me who will support and praise you no matter what. If you want, I can even do the extreme that a fan is willing to do for their idol.”

Tao Mu stared blankly at Li Xiaoheng, thinking that he might have drank too much chicken soup, and his mind was working much slower than usual, and asked dumbly, “…..What extreme?”

“Warming your bed!” Li Xiaoheng suddenly laughed, his warm eyes seemed like two spring pools, their radiant lustre extremely gentle: “You have many fans who imagine that you are their boyfriend. Calling themselves your girlfriend fans. Then I’m your boyfriend fan, okay?”

Tao Mu: “…..”

Probably because the lighting was too soft, or because the heating was particularly good this winter, Tao Mu suddenly felt a little warm in his heart.

“You’re a domineering CEO dealing in tens of millions of dollars a minute, don’t be so boring, okay!” Tao Mu shook his head helplessly, took a step back subconsciously, and crossed his arms: “There is fruit in the refrigerator. Wash whatever you like.”

“Then let’s eat grapefruit.” Li Xiaoheng said with a smile: “Didn’t you say you wanted to eat grapefruit a few days ago. When I drove downstairs, I happened to have found fresh grapefruit in the fruit shop.”

“I don’t want to eat it now. Save it for the juice tomorrow morning.” Tao Mu frowned slightly: “Cut two oranges.”

“Don’t be afraid of it being too troublesome. I’ll peel it for you.” Li Xiaoheng saw at a glance a certain someone’s thoughts of being lazy again, and said with a smile, “I find that you’ve been a little lazy lately. You don’t like peeling shrimp, nor do you like peeling grapefruit. If you truly can’t resist your craving, you just go to the restaurant to order fried shrimp, or cut some watermelon and oranges, and just barely get by. You really won’t think about finding a boyfriend? The kind who is willing to peel shrimp as well as grapefruit?”

“Who said that I don’t like peeling fruit?” Tao Mu raised his eyebrows, and firmly refused to admit that he was being lazy: “When I eat oranges and bananas, I always peel them myself. If you don’t believe me, I will peel one for you to see.”

“Peel one?” Li Xiaoheng, who was opening the refrigerator door to pick out fruits, heard the words, and suddenly hooked up the corner of his mouth. As he opened the refrigerator, he tilted his head to look at Tao Mu, and asked maliciously, “How will you peel?”

“Just use your hand——” Tao Mu just said a few words, and suddenly realized what Li Xiaoheng was talking about. He was suddenly speechless: “You have become more and more glib lately.”

“Because I want to make you happy.” Li Xiaoheng said with a warm smile and a softer tone.

He pointed to himself: “I am good-looking and can make money to support the family. If there is something I will help you with it and make you happy whenever I can. So won’t you consider accepting a boyfriend who is even more obedient than an AI robot?”

“…..I’m only nineteen years old, so I won’t think about puppy love for the time being.” Tao Mu refused without hesitation, “Also, you  are a domineering CEO dealing in tens of millions of dollars a minute, and you are also the heir of a big group. You will definitely consider getting married in the future. You will be twenty-six after the new year. Your family didn’t arrange a blind date for you?”

“They know my sexuality.” Li Xiaoheng pondered for a moment and said. He came out with his family the year he graduated high school. The reason why Xiaoheng Capital was established in his freshman year of college was because Li Xiaoheng never thought about inheriting Fengxing Group after he came out of the closet. He didn’t want to be threatened by his parents and elders with his heir position, and he didn’t want his life to be arranged by the family for a lifetime. Therefore, he would rather give up his heir qualification of Fengxing Group and start his own business. In fact, if he hadn’t met Tao Mu, Li Xiaoheng would have even thought about staying on Wall Street after graduation and never going back to China.

After all, with the background and status of the Li family, the scandal of the eldest son of the family actually coming out of the closet, although it was concealed from the public. But well-informed people would still know. Li Xiaoheng didn’t want to feel aggrieved, and didn’t want to embarrass his parents and elders, so he could only minimize the number of times he returned to China.

However, because he was busy starting his own business during his college days and didn’t have the time and energy to have any relationships, the Li family seemed to begin entertaining unrealistic hopes about his sexuality once again. Mrs. Li even tricked Li Xiaoheng back into the country for blind dates when she had nothing to do. Taking into account the feelings of his parents, Li Xiaoheng just brushed it off at first. Later, he became impatient. Although he didn’t quibble about it with his parents, towards the elders of the Li family who were pushing this matter behind the scenes, Li Xiaoheng taught them all a lesson, not letting escape a single one. After a few times, these people knew to respect Li Xiaoheng’s decision and privacy, and no longer tried to interfere in Li Xiaoheng’s private life.

Of course, this was mainly because Xiaoheng Capital, founded by Li Xiaoheng, performed too well during the financial crisis. Several short-selling on the international market swept in tens of billions of dollars. Li Xiaoheng, who had always focused on the international capital market before, was not constrained by his family. In fact, it was Fengxing Group that relied more on Xiaoheng Capital’s investment ability.

Thus, Li Xiaoheng’s words within the family naturally gained more weight.

“If this is what you are concerned about, then you can be rest assured. I am very serious about wanting to have a relationship with you.” Li Xiaoheng paused and added, “Dating with the goal of marriage in mind.”

Under the warm light, Li Xiaoheng’s eyes looked more tender and gentle. He looked at Tao Mu and asked patiently, “So do you want to think about it again and accept my pursuit?”

“Then have you ever thought about breaking up after dating?”

Tao Mu had asked this question more than once. Li Xiaoheng also changed from his initial act of delayering vows to a final response after deliberation: “Any project has the possibility of collapsing midway through. The same for cooperation. The same for marriage. I don’t dare to guarantee about what it will be like in decades. But we can find a way to insure our relationship.”

In the end, Li Xiaoheng still used his most accustomed business model to find a way to solve Tao Mu’s concerns: “We can gather the best economic lawyers and insurance practitioners in the world. Have them focus on our current situation and our concerns, and issue an insurance policy. To ensure that our economic property will not be damaged when we break up. We can also sign a model similar to the industry competition clause to ensure that we can break up peacefully. After separation, we will not retaliate against each other for malicious competition. Terms can be formulated a bit harsher to limit our breakup as much as possible. Or in other words, limit the impulse we might have after the breakup.

Think about defeat even before thinking about winning. Although Li Xiaoheng didn’t know why Tao Mu was so emotionally pessimistic. But Li Xiaoheng had never been a person who just sat back and waited when he encountered difficulties, or was a person who left it up to fate. He would not back down because of Tao Mu’s repeated refusal, nor would he think that Tao Mu’s worries were unfounded. As he said before, any cooperation had the possibility of collapsing midway, and the same was true for love and marriage. Since Tao Mu had concerns, in order to open the door to Tao Mu’s heart, Li Xiaoheng was willing to try any possibility. He was willing to show Tao Mu his greatest sincerity. How he managed to win over his business partners in the first place was how he treated Tao Mu now.

Li Xiaoheng believed that so long as he showed his sincerity, Tao Mu would definitely feel it.

Sure enough, after Li Xiaoheng proposed a solution so carefully, Tao Mu also hesitated.

“…..Then I’ll think about it.” Tao Mu hesitated for a moment, then said slowly. Probably because of his lack of self-confidence, his tone was particularly soft. If it wasn’t for Li Xiaoheng’s constant attention to Tao Mu’s every move, it could hardly have been heard.

One had to admit that Li Xiaoheng was the most watched capital boss in later years for a reason. His ability to win over his business partners was indeed very high. So much so that Tao Mu began to think that if he could find a way to solve the crisis after the breakup, it would be a pleasant experience to have a relationship with someone like Li Xiaoheng who was reliable in work, and interesting in private.

Although he was fully prepared, he never imagined that Tao Mu would immediately agree to his pursuit. Even CEO Li, who was ready for a protracted war, looked at Tao Mu with a little surprise. He originally thought that Tao Mu would continue to reject him.

Having put Tao Mu in his heart for the cherished pursuit, Li Xiaoheng almost forgot, in fact, Tao Mu was also a decisive person in essence. He did not lack in executive abilities any more than he did.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

He stared at Tao Mu for a long time, and then the  corner of Li Xiaoheng’s lips suddenly drew up in an extremely gentle arc, as if he was afraid of awakening Tao Mu, and smiled softly: “Okay.”

Think slowly, don’t rush. I will be patient. Until you let go of your unease, or when you put your uneasiness down and walk towards me.

I will prove it to you. No matter how much insurance we do for this relationship. Those retreat routes will be useless in the end.

After signing the contract, Tao Mu took Lawyer Zhou to the Hong Kong Royal Police Academy. Mainly, he wanted to investigate the atmosphere of the police academy on the spot.

Responsible for receiving Tao Mu were the principal of the police academy and other teaching staff. In order to allow Tao Mu to better experience the school atmosphere, the school also gave Tao Mu an auditing certificate. Which meant that he also had a student number and uniforms, as well as also being given a bed in the dormitory.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

The school staff led Tao Mu around the school while introducing the school history. Many police academy students were pressed up against the windows that line the corridors of the teaching building or the windows of the dormitory.

“Wow, it’s actually the principal and all the school leaders accompanying the visit. Did it have to be that exaggerated? Who is that person below? He looks even younger than me.”

“He seems to be a rich man from the mainland. Have you played FlyNews? He seemed to have made it. I heard that he is only 19 years old this year, and his worth is already over a billion dollars. He earned it all by himself.”

“No way! Such an exaggeration!”

“You’re talking about FlyNews, isn’t that the FlyNews.com with more than 120 million registered users? It’s very fun, I play it every day. There is also BulletScreen.com, which lets you watch a lot of movies and TV series. Unfortunately, most of them are all mainland films. It would be great if there were also shows from TVB Jade.”

“What did that kind of big boss come to the police academy for?”

“It seems to be for filming. Don’t you watch gossip. I heard that he participated in the filming of “Black and White”, plays a policeman in it, and will also be filming with Zhou Yanqing and Yan Sheng. He came to our police academy to experience what Hong Kong police are like.”

“Ai. People truly can’t be compared. We take the police test to make a living. While he just wants to improve his acting skills. We want nothing more than to be locked in the school 24 hours a day, and yet the instructors are so mean to us. At best, he’ll just be here two days a week, and the people in the academic affairs office would just have a smile on their faces. Does it have to be so realistic!”

“Stop talking, they’re coming this way!”

The principal of the Hong Kong Police Academy and the instructor from the Academic Affairs Office introduced Tao Mu into the police dormitory. Don’t know if it was a coincidence or the school’s intentional arrangement but Tao Mu’s dormitory here was also 301. Of course, the layout and roommates inside were definitely different from Beijing Film’s.

“CEO Tao, you can live here when you come to experience police academy life on weekends. You can train with the students at that time. If you have any questions, you can communicate with the Academic Affairs Office.”

“Thank you, Principal.” Tao Mu held the police uniform and training uniform in his hands and said with a smile, “Principal, don’t call me CEO Tao. You can just call me Tao Mu.”

“Alright.” The principal of the police academy glanced at the other students in the 301 dormitory, as well as the students in the dormitory corridor, and said with a smile: “Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Tao Mu. In the next few months he will be studying and training with you all every weekend. I think you all know that Mr. Tao is about to take part in a movie co-produced by Hong Kong and the mainland. Mr. Tao will play a Hong Kong policeman in it. Coming here this time is also for the purpose of preparing for the film by getting a close look at what the Hong Kong police are like. I hope everyone can perform well. Let Mr. Tao see the excellent side of our Hong Kong police.”

Hearing the principal’s words, some lively students winked at each other and smiled. So the implication in the principal’s words was to act cool and capable!

Tao Mu waited until the principal finished speaking, and made a brief self-introduction. Very humble and low-key. Zhou Shenxing, who followed him, rolled his eyes while holding the other supplies issued by the police academy. He was a lawyer with an annual salary of tens of millions yuan, and now he was about to become a little subordinate who carried the boss’s bag. And the culprit was still pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here. He really didn’t know, with Tao Mu putting on such a low-key attitude, how he planned to squeeze these police students, who clearly didn’t have experience with the black heart of the capitalists, for all their worth in the next few months.

At the same time, the news that Tao Mu was going to use the weekends to experience life at the Hong Kong Police Academy for filming also spread to Shen Yu’s ears.

Since Shen Yu was bullied by the crew——the scene where he forced him to hang on wires that resulted in a fever was found out by Shen Yan. Shen Yan, who was unhappy that her little brother suffered grievances, ran to the crew again to make a scene.

Although Shen Yu had abided by his agreement with best actor Yan Sheng, he did not want to pursue revenge against Liang Xiao. But Shen Yan obviously didn’t think the same. She never thought that an actress who could only get a good role by climbing the bed of a bankroller would dare to treat her little brother like this. This was clearly not taking the Shen family seriously.

So Shen Yan rushed into the crew the next day, slapped Liang Xiao several times in front of everyone, slandered Liang Xiao and accused her for taking it out on Shen Yu because her love turned into hatred, and forced Liang Xiao to apologize to Shen Yu. She even wanted to use the influence of the Shen family to drive Liang Xiao out of the crew.

However, Shen Yan obviously forgot that she was still estranged from home and had to support herself. Chairman Shen personally said that he would let this spoiled daughter, who did not know the sufferings of the world, feel the pressure of life. Under the explicit instructions of Chairman Shen, the employees of the Shen Group certainly did not dare to violate the big boss’s wishes.

So in the end, Shen Yan failed to get Liang Xiao out of the crew as she wished. Instead, she offended Liang Xiao’s bankroller without knowing it.

Liang Xiao’s bankroller was also an investor in the crew. Although his business was not as strong as the Shen Group, it was not something that ordinary people could compare to either. Due to the wealth of the Shen family, this bankroller couldn’t quibble with Shen Yan. But towards an adopted son who was expelled from the Shen family, he was not so polite.

He directly implied to the crew that they must cut down a lot of Shen Yu’s stand-ins. At least when acting with Liang Xiao, Shen Yu had to act in person.

“If Miss Shen really feels sorry for your little brother, you can take your little brother home. Since he has come out to film, it’s better to have some professional ethics.”

In addition, the bankroller also hired the water army to expose Shen Yu’s use of stand-ins for filming, and also spread the news of bullying female artists in his crew on the Internet. For a while, because of the broadcast of “Purple Cloud”, Shen Yu, who played the leading role in the drama and attracted countless fans among young audiences with his lively and kind personality and exquisite and elegant appearance, became the target of public criticism once again. Mu Huating, who played a supporting actor in “Purple Cloud”, also took advantage of the situation to give his cents, and broke the news to the media that Shen Yu also used a lot of stand-ins in the “Purple Cloud” crew, accusing Shen Yu of not having professional ethics, and really rubbed off on a wave of heat.

Of course, the reason why Mu Huating said this was not just to gain popularity. It was mainly because he received hints from the company’s top management. Summer Star Entertainment was now cooperating with FlyNews.com to hold the talent show “National God and Goddess”, not to mention the personal relationship between Long Tianao and Tao Mu. Originally, the relationship between Long Tianao and Shen Yu was actually not bad. It was just a pity that after the scandal of the Yao family being exposed, Long Tianao was turned into an anti by Shen Yu’s disgusting actions that came one after another. Summer Star Entertainment also wanted to take advantage of this incident to befriend Tao Mu, so they asked Mu Huating and his agent Zhao Keping to secretly buy some water army to step on Shen Yu.

Speaking of which, Zhao Keping’s life at Summer Star Entertainment was not very easy either. He originally had the opportunity to sign Tao Mu to Summer Star Entertainment, but because of his superfluous actions, not only did he lose Tao Mu as a potential artist, he was even suppressed by the company in various ways. If it wasn’t for the fact that Tao Mu said that he didn’t care about him, it was likely that Summer Star Entertainment would have even thought of forcing Zhao Keping to resign.

But even so, Zhao Keping’s status in Summer Star Entertainment had plummeted. From an agent that the company highly regarded to a marginal person that no one cared about. Even the artists under him suffered. This time, instructed by the company to expose Shen Yu’s bizarre deeds in the crew, Zhao Keping and Mu Huating also had the idea of making up for their old crimes.

As Tao Mu’s net worth and social status rose higher and higher, Mu Huating, who once dared to confront Tao Mu, was now fully sober. If a person was only a little better than the people around him, everyone’s first reaction was jealousy. But if he was so good as to be out of reach, everyone could only keep looking up to him.

Mu Huating was targeted by Shen Yu in various ways because he framed Tao Mu on the set of “Purple Cloud”. At that time, Shen Yu was still the biological son of the Shen family and was much loved by everyone. He took the lead in targeting Mu Huating, and the entire crew followed suit and ostracized him. Although Mu Huating was angry about Shen Yu’s meddling, he dared not do anything.

Now that the tide turned and Shen Yu’s birth background was exposed, going from the once beloved son of the Shen family to a stray cat who was driven out of the Shen family. And Tao Mu, who had once been humbled in the mud, turned into a domineering CEO worth billions in US dollars. Mu Huating no longer dared to show his enmity with Tao Mu. But he could turn the gun to deal with Shen Yu, which could be regarded as getting revenge for himself from back then.

In an instant, Shen Yu, who was attacked by all walks of life, enjoyed the treatment of being attacked by enemies on all sides. Because of various irresponsible actions, he was criticized heavily online. Of course, Shen Yu’s die-hard fans were still fighting against all kinds of water army and passers-by. The two sides fought fiercely, and the final impact was a wider spread of the situation, creating the impression that Shen Yu was really unprofessional to all passers-by. Of course, for Shen Yu’s die-hard fans, this battle was undoubtedly a case of fan tormenting in which “the whole world wants to harm my baby”.

At least Shen Yan didn’t think that Liang Xiao’s bankroller and that insignificant actor would actually dare to stand up and throw stones at Shen Yu.

Shen Yan, who was so angry that she practically exploded, called Wen Shijin directly. She yelled at Wen Shijin on the phone, thinking that Wen Shijin, as Shen Yu’s agent and manager, failed to take good care of Shen Yu and let Shen Yu be bullied by so many people, which was really incompetent of him.

“If you take the money from our Shen family, you must do things well. At least you must be worthy of your own conscience. Don’t think that just because my little brother left the Shen family temporarily, you can be irresponsible.”

After receiving a complaint call from Shen Yan, Wen Shijin, who was discussing with Director Xu Musen in Hong Kong whether Shen Yu could have a chance to audition for the role of Yan Yu, was confused. He probably didn’t expect that Shen Yu would be able to cause so much trouble in the few days he had left the mainland. After learning about the cause and effect of the incident, Wen Shijin was also dumbfounded at Shen Yan’s unreasonable behavior. But he couldn’t quibble with his boss’s daughter. He could only retort mildly, “Miss Shen, I think you have probably misunderstood the responsibilities of an agent for a life assistant. Also, please don’t blame others for what is your fault. In fact, if it weren’t for Miss Shen targeting Miss Liang all the time in the crew, I don’t believe Miss Liang would have retaliated against Shen Yu.”

“As for whether I am competent or not, I don’t think it’s something that Miss Shen can be a judge of. If you have any doubts about my work style, you can propose to Chairman Shen to replace me as an agent.”

In fact, after Wen Shijin learned that Shen Yu was not the biological son of the Shen family, he somewhat regretted his decision to take over Shen Yu’s artist contract. It was undeniable that Shen Yu’s appearance was really good, his personality was soft and obedient enough, and he also had the halo of a wealthy son of an affluent family. If he was packaged well, he could definitely be popular.

This was also an important reason why Wen Shijin decided to accept the invitation of the Shen family. But what Wen Shijin didn’t expect was that Shen Yu’s birth background actually had such twists and turns. Now that Shen Yu was kicked out of the Shen family by Mrs. Shen herself and Chairman Shen and CEO Shen did not support Shen Yu as vigorously as they did before, in order to take care of Mrs. Shen’s emotions, and they no longer gave various resource preferences to Shen Yu.

So much so that it was so difficult for Wen Shijin to talk to Xu Musen about a small supporting role that would appear for less than ten minutes. If Shen Yan still insisted on pulling his hind legs without repentance, Wen Shijin really didn’t want to do it anymore.

Shen Yan was in a state of even more disbelief that Wen Shijin, as an employee of the Shen family, would dare to treat her like this. She was immediately unhappy and called Father Shen, and after complaining about Wen Shijin on the phone, she even proposed the idea of firing Wen Shijin and she could fill in as Shen Yu’s agent instead.

However, Shen Yan seemed to have forgotten her big words in the Shen family mansion that day. Fortunately, Chairman Shen had a good memory. He directly reminded Shen Yan that she was currently estranged from home and was no longer qualified to make requests of him. And sincerely suggested that Shen Yan had better stop meddling in Shen Yu’s affairs, and that instead find a way to find a job to support herself.

“Wen Shijin is right. If it wasn’t for you making trouble, Liang Xiao’s people wouldn’t hire the water navy to spread Shen Yu’s negative news everywhere, and there wouldn’t be so many people throwing stones at him. Originally, I wanted to announce the news that Xiao Yu will be the promotion ambassador for the gene bank after discussing it with your older brother. As a result, because of you, Xiao Yu’s reputation has become so bad and the announcement of the ambassadorship must also be postponed.”

“The saying ‘unable to achieve anything but good at spoiling things’ describes you perfectly. Yet you still have the courage to call me and complain about Shi Jin.” Chairman Shen lectured his daughter without holding back on the phone.

Of course he wouldn’t agree with Shen Yan’s whims. This daughter had been spoiled rotten by their family, and she only knew how to offend people when she went out the door. Shen Shiyuan didn’t want Shen Yu to offend people everywhere. Wen Shijin was the agent he carefully selected for Shen Yu. He also needed to rely on Wen Shijin’s ability to make Shen Yu an A-list superstar so that he could meet more talented and excellent people. At that time, it would also be good for their Shen family.

This was important business, and it must not be destroyed by Shen Yan.

Of course Shen Yan didn’t know Father Shen’s plans. When not only did her complaint fail, she was also taught a lesson, Shen Yan hung up the phone angrily. She decided to discuss with Shen Yu and join him in the crew as Shen Yu’s assistant.

As for finding a job or something…..she was already Xiao Yu’s life assistant and manager. Of course Shen Yu must pay her a salary. No, it should be said that Shen Yan wanted to take over Shen Yu’s bank card and help Shen Yu manage his assets.

Hmmph! Even if I don’t go back to the Shen family, I can still live a good life! Like I will go back to suffer other people’s attitudes.

The immeasurably self-satisfied Shen Yan didn’t realize what was wrong with her behavior at all. She just directly called Shen Yu over to announce her decision.

Shen Yu, who had always been obedient to his family, didn’t think there was anything wrong with Shen Yan’s actions. Knowing that Shen Yan was going to live with him from now on, Shen Yu obediently handed over all the bank cards on his body, and gave Shen Yan the master bedroom with the best lighting.

It was a pity that Shen Yan’s plan only lasted one night. It was destroyed by the Shen family. At the suggestion of Chairman Shen, Shen Chen directly sent his assistant to take over all the work of Shen Yu in the crew. And also arranged another life assistant for Shen Yu, who was responsible for Shen Yu’s interpersonal communication in the entertainment circle.

As for Shen Yan, who wanted to act as Shen Yu’s agent under the banner of Shen Yu’s life assistant and follow him into the crew, she was sent away by Shen Chen with a phone call.

Big Brother Shen believed that since Shen Yan was obsessed and didn’t recognize her own mistakes at all, then she had no right to spend the Shen family’s money, not even Shen Yu’s money.

Not only that, in order to punish Shen Yan for using the power of the Shen family to offend people everywhere, and even to delay the further promotion of the Lost Children’s Gene Bank by the Shen Group, Shen Chen directly drove Shen Yan out of Shen Yu’s apartment.

Shen Chen felt that the reason why Shen Yan had the energy to make trouble everywhere was because she didn’t feel the pressure of life. Then he must let her know about the suffering in the world and see if Shen Yan was still idle enough to make troubles when she couldn’t even find a job, couldn’t even live in a house, and couldn’t even afford food.

However, towards Wen Shijin’s suggestion that he wanted Shen Yu to join the crew of “Black and White”, Shen Chen felt that there was a lot of room for manipulation.

At least after Tao Mu personally recommended Shen Yu to be the promotion ambassador of the gene bank, the Shen family father and son felt that Tao Mu was not necessarily immune to Shen Yu’s influence. So it was feasible to find a way to get Shen Yu to befriend Tao Mu.

And if one wanted to make friends with Tao Mu, one must at least have the opportunity to get close to Tao Mu. Participating in the filming of “Black and White” this time was a good opportunity. Not only that, after learning about the details of the role of Yan Yu through Wen Shijin’s introduction, Shen Chen couldn’t help but think of the idea of ​​letting Shen Yu go to the police academy for a period of training under the banner of experiencing police life for character research.

——Wasn’t there water army outside who had been saying that Shen Yu’s use of stand-ins for filming was very disrespectful. Then they could take this opportunity to wash away the negative image. Shen Yu could also get closer with Tao Mu. At that time, the Shen Group could also take advantage of the opportunity to announce that it invited Shen Yu to serve as the promotion ambassador for the Lost Children’s Gene Bank.

Three birds with one stone.

Shen Chen’s idea hit it off with Wen Shijin. After the two talked on the phone, Wen Shijin found Director Xu Musen again, proposed that the Shen family wanted to invest in the production of “Black and White”, and sincerely asked Director Xu Musen to give Shen Yu a chance to audition.

Xu Musen also saw that the Shen family wanted to forcibly insert Shen Yu into the crew. Although he was dissatisfied, Xu Musen didn’t want to offend a wealthy and influential family like the Shen family, so he could only agree to Shen Yu’s audition request.

But having said that, both of them knew that no matter what Shen Yu did during the audition, it was a no-brainer that he would join the crew. The so-called audition was just formalities.

Xu Musen could only pray that even if Shen Yu was not good at acting, at least his attitude could be as serious as Tao Mu. However, he then thought of the reports that Shen Yu was not professional in the mainland entertainment gossip forums and suddenly felt very hopeless.

Other producers in the crew of “Black and White” also quickly learned that the Shen Group’s forced capital injection would also put Shen Yu into the crew. Instantly there were a few different thoughts running around.
