Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Oh God, Save Me!
After chatting with Su Mian, Lu Zhanxing added Qiao Yun on WeChat, and she quickly accepted the request.
Lu Zhanxing directly transferred twenty thousand yuan to Qiao Yun with the considerate note, “Little sister’s snack money.”
He hadn’t been prejudiced against Qiao Yun just because she came from the countryside, but he definitely had some not-so-positive thoughts, such as their differing values making communication impossible.
From birth, he lived with his grandparents abroad until high school when he returned, so he didn’t have deep feelings for Lu Ting, let alone a sister he had never met.
However, having seen her today, he had a good impression, and he even wanted to tease her because Qiao Yun was so indifferent.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qiao Yun stared at Lu Zhanxing’s transfer for a few seconds before accepting and sent a polite reply, “Thank you.”
Sigh…
Social niceties are such a hassle.
Lu Zhanxing suppressed a smile, even her thanks carried an air of coldness.
Sisters are quite interesting creatures.
Agent Xie Ying glanced at him, and seeing his mood wasn’t too bad, doused him with a cold splash, “While you’re in a good mood, better go online and take a look.”
“What’s wrong?” Lu Zhanxing sniffed out the hidden meaning in his words, “Am I being slandered again?”
Xie Ying listed it out for him, “This is the third time this month, but each time the trending topics were quickly suppressed.”
“It’s a warning from the company, they want me to bow down, what a daydream!” Lu Zhanxing was frustrated.
Xie Ying’s eyes were full of sympathy, “About that TV series you did last time, I pulled some strings and asked, someone had requested the director to replace you, so another newcomer could step in.”
Lu Zhanxing furrowed his brows, having been in the entertainment industry for two years, although not spectacularly famous, he had at least had smooth sailing.
Just that this year was too unlucky, being targeted by idiots everywhere, trying to trip him up and make him concede!
“My boss gave me a secret tip about Director Lin’s movie, they’re planning to recommend someone else,” Xie Ying said anxiously, even though Director Lin had sought out Lu Zhanxing to star in it.
But what if the company interfered? The main role definitely wouldn’t end up in his hands.
“Sigh, if only we had some capital to back us up.”
Lu Zhanxing clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could storm into the company and drag those people out for a beating.
He had entered the entertainment industry full of dreams, but two years had passed, and he saw clearly that in the face of capital, dreams were worthless.
Unless he had a huge fan base or capital behind him, he could only be meat on the chopping board.
He had even thought about quitting the industry, but he wasn’t willing!
It was not just for those fans who steadfastly believed in him, but also not to let down his own choices.

Upon receiving Qiao Yun’s command, Pei Yao immediately instructed his secretary to look for an entertainment company. Setting up a new one was too much trouble; it would be easier to directly acquire or invest in one.
Then his phone rang.
Pei Yao picked up the call, and after hearing the person on the other end, he said with irritation, “Tell them to get lost. The movie was tailor-made for Lu Zhanxing. If they dare pull any stunts, do they believe I would buy them out?”
How dare someone snatch the gift from Professor Qiao!
They are really courting death!
After hanging up the phone, Pei Yao clicked his tongue, wondering if Professor Qiao went to become a person or a golden leg Guardian.
After the agent left, Lu Zhanxing stared at his phone for a long time, finally placing it respectfully on the table, bringing his hands together, and muttering with his eyes closed.
“God, give me some luck, please.”
“God, save me, please.”
“Zhanxing!”
Xie Ying burst through the door with rushed breath, “I’ve got news, it’s settled! Director Lin’s film, they specified it’s got to be you, and even told the leaders to roll! Hahaha… I’m dying of laughter! Tell me! Do you really not have any capital backing you? The investor of this film has some serious clout!”
Lu Zhanxing stared open-mouthed and after quite a while, he solemnly picked up his phone and spoke to Xie Ying very seriously.
“My capital lives in my phone, and its name is Aladdin.”
Xie Ying: “…”
Has this kid gone crazy with joy?
