TLSOTMTKOGAYWHTDI Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Very Capable?

After both of them left, Zhuo Huaimo and his assistant got out of the car.

“Let’s go, let’s go see Director Du!”

The director of this drama was the director of Zhuo Huaimo’s first movie. Since he was here, it was right to visit an old friend.

In this industry, it’s all about connections and relationships.

As soon as they reached the corridor, they heard a group of women gossiping,

“Ning Xin, you lost! Be a good girl and treat us to milk tea!”

“Who does Qi Yanwang think he is, daring to refuse me!” Ning Xin gritted her teeth in anger.

Hearing the name “Qi Yanwang,” Zhuo Huaimo couldn’t help but stop.

“I told you not to bother. That guy always looks like a block of ice!” one of the women said.

“I didn’t expect this perennial little burnt coffee ground to be so tough!”

Ning Xin said contemptuously, “What’s the big deal? I was just curious about his face. When I officially sign with Xingyue Media, a little burnt coffee ground like him? With a wave of my hand, a whole bunch in the industry would swarm around me like dogs!”

“What a pity, I was still waiting for you to eat him and share your experience with us sisters!” one of the girls said with a teasing tone.

“Do I even need to share? Qi Yanwang looks very capable. Watching him act, I feel like hormones are overflowing from the screen!”

Very capable?

Already gossipy, Zhuo Huaimo became even more interested, perking up his ears to listen.

Ning Xin said with a regretful expression, “Hmph, I don’t believe it. There are still three months, I don’t believe I won’t have a chance. When the time comes, I’ll ask the director to add a few more kissing scenes for me, and I don’t believe he still won’t react?”

“You really have an insatiable lust!” the other women laughed. “Ning Xin, you’re supposed to be an ‘Innocent White Lotus,’ you can’t be like this!”

“‘Innocent White Lotus’ is also for the benefit of my sisters. I’ll play with him first, and when I’m bored, I’ll share him with you!”

A group of women were wildly fantasizing about Zhuo Huaimo in the lounge.

However, Zhuo Huaimo looked at Ning Xin inside, a cold smile tugging at the corner of his mouth – it’s you!

“Bang—”

A loud noise came from behind. Zhuo Huaimo turned his head and saw Qi Yanwang, who had appeared behind him at some point, and a trash can lying on its side.

Clearly, he had heard the entire conversation.

His deep eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the group of women in the makeup room with contempt and disgust, exuding a dangerous aura.

Those people in the room should be glad they were women.

Zhuo Huaimo once again sized up the man in front of him. Even simple black T-shirt and jeans were worn by him with the aura of a supermodel.

Qi Yanwang also noticed Zhuo Huaimo’s gaze, meeting his eyes calmly, without dodging, without flattery, and even with a hint of disgust.

In this industry, there weren’t many people who dared to meet Zhuo Huaimo’s eyes. His interest instantly piqued.

The two stood facing each other, neither speaking nor moving a step.

A tense and inquisitive atmosphere spread between them.

Finally, Qi Yanwang lowered his head, glanced at the trash can lying on the side, and tried to bend down to pick it up and leave.

A pair of shiny leather shoes appeared in his field of vision, leading up along the straight lines of the suit pants, directly crashing into Zhuo Huaimo’s dark and ambiguous eyes.

His brow furrowed slightly, as if displeased.

Hearing the noise, Ning Xin also came out from inside. She didn’t expect that her future boss would personally come to the set, so she called out in a affected manner,

“Zhuo, President Zhuo!”

Ning Xin glanced at Qi Yanwang next to her, a thought occurring to her. She immediately squatted down,

“Yanwang, let me help you!”

Saying that, she also turned her head to say to Zhuo Huaimo, “President Zhuo, please wait for me a moment, I’ll help clean this up first!”

Well-behaved, sensible, kind, and enthusiastic, truly like an innocent white lotus.

Zhuo Huaimo couldn’t help but complain inwardly, “Even if she came from a talent show, her acting shouldn’t be this bad. Are all the people in the company blind?”

He really didn’t want to look at that woman any longer. On the other hand, Qi Yanwang next to him looked even better up close.

Zhuo Huaimo’s gaze slowly moved down. The wide T-shirt couldn’t hide Qi Yanwang’s good figure, broad shoulders and a narrow waist.

No wonder the women in the makeup room were like ravenous wolves who hadn’t eaten meat for centuries. With this kind of quality, who could stand it?

Seeing Ning Xin was busy creating an innocent white lotus persona, rushing to clean up the mess for him.

Qi Yanwang sneered and turned to leave.

Zhuo Huaimo was thinking of taking a few more glances, but the other party only left him with a back view.

“Has personality!”

Zhuo Huaimo’s eyes narrowed slightly, a playful smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

Today’s filming had already ended. Qi Yanwang packed his things, put on his backpack, scanned a bicycle, and rode towards his rented house.

In the August evening, the wind still carried the lingering heat of the summer. He faced the setting sun, recalling the award ceremony three years ago.

“Li Bing, this is my award, why should I give it up?” Qi Yanwang was backstage, strongly suppressing the anger in his heart, questioning.

Li Bing was his previous company’s agent. Although helpless, he still patiently explained.

“Yanwang, the work you participated in didn’t make much of a splash. Only you won the “Most Promising Artist” award. Their intention is to give the award to Zhuo Huaimo, allowing him to become the first “Grand Slam” in history!”

“He’s already won so many awards, does he still care about one more?”

“Yanwang, you also understand, Zhuo Huaimo is currently at the height of his popularity. The organizers and the agency all want a gimmick! “Grand Slam,” has never appeared in history!”

“Li Bing, you know how much I put into this role. In Yang City, where the temperature was below ten degrees Celsius, I was soaked in ice water for more than ten hours!” Qi Yanwang said angrily.

“Yanwang! You know, complaining is useless. It’s just that you’re not strong enough!” Li Bing said indifferently.

Qi Yanwang knew that Li Bing was telling the truth.

If he wanted to continue in this industry in the future, he couldn’t offend the organizers and the platform.

Because he wasn’t strong enough, others could easily take away the awards he had worked hard to earn.

At that time, he sat on the sofa almost despairingly, “Li Bing, fight for the greatest compensation for me!”

That night, Qi Yanwang, who had already changed into his dress and had no background, swallowed his anger and left.

Backstage, he did the same, watching the glamorous Zhuo Huaimo brush past him…

A little burnt coffee ground like him, what kind of decent compensation could he get? The platform almost didn’t care at all. Instead, a representative from Zhuo Huaimo’s agency introduced him to a male supporting role in an A-level drama.

However, Li Bing turned around and gave the role to a young, handsome actor who had entered his room that night.

After learning the truth, Qi Yanwang punched his former agent, Li Bing, in anger, and was directly kicked out of the company, and also forced him to sign an IOU for five million in breach of contract fees.

Since then, the perennial little burnt coffee ground, Qi Yanwang, who had been in the industry for many years, was five million in debt…
