Chapter 148 Whoever touches it is doomed

As it turns out, no one knows a son better than his father.

Qi Yingxuan did want to cause trouble, and he wanted to cause something big, but it wasn't something that would affect them right now.

Considering the large number of guests, Lu Jingyun prepared a lot of dishes, including a large amount of hot pot ingredients on the table, as well as many freshly stir-fried side dishes.

Ye Wanxi looked at the table full of food, then glanced at the people in the room: "With so many dishes, does anyone else want to come over?"

"That's all, just the few of us. Your Uncle Wang has something to do at the station today and can't come over, so it's just the few of us eating."

"There are just a few of us, isn't that too many?"

"Since this is your first time here, I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I made a little extra. It's alright, they both have big appetites, they won't waste any."

The father and son, who had big appetites, looked at the huge table of food and said, "..." Even with such big appetites, we couldn't finish all of this. Are you trying to feed us like pigs?

"By the way, I heard from your Uncle Wang that you made an appointment with Mr. Bai to visit his grandson in the next couple of days. Did you go?"

Bai Haoqi's situation is hardly a secret within the industry.

When Wang Chengwen mentioned that Ye Wanxi was going to their house, Lu Jingyun and the other person roughly knew what she was going to do.

“Yes.”

"Is that young master Bai really not sick?"

"Yes, it's not an illness. There was a problem at home, but it's been resolved."

"It's good that it's resolved, it's good that it's resolved." Lu Jingyun didn't mean to pry into other people's privacy. Seeing how concise Ye Wanxi's words were, she roughly understood what she meant and didn't ask any more questions.

On the contrary, after listening to their conversation, Qi Jicong roughly guessed what the situation was like in the Bai family.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, he smiled faintly and said, "Chengwen mentioned before that this Mr. Bai has a very good relationship with the station director. You've done Mr. Bai such a big favor this time, he'll definitely tell the station director later, and might even say some good things about you. Banana TV has quite a few connections; many large companies have partnerships with them. Perhaps someone will contact you and your agent soon."

Gao Min's eyes brightened slightly, clearly indicating that she had also thought of this.

Qi Yingxuan was a little unhappy when he heard this: "If Xiao Xixi wants resources, why does she need them? She can just come to me directly."

Listening to her son's boastful words, Lu Jingyun was both amused and annoyed: "Alright, stop bragging. With your limited connections, it might only work in the film industry; it might not be effective elsewhere. Maybe Wanxi doesn't even like making movies?"

"No, no, no, Wanxi likes him, but she just doesn't have the chance." Gao Min said, nudging Ye Wanxi to urge her to say something.

"I don't really have any favorites or dislikes. I'll take on any suitable roles, and if not, I'll pass. But if it's your movie, feel free to call me anytime if you need anything."

Hearing Ye Wanxi say this, Qi Yingxuan nodded in satisfaction, looking smug: "Mom, listen, your son is still quite popular. Don't keep pouring cold water on me."

Lu Jingyun glared at him fiercely: "They were just trying to give you a way out, and you're getting all cocky."

“Ahem…” Xiang Yueqi was not willing to be outdone, so he took the initiative to speak up, “If you need anything, I can also invest. I can help you rent any filming location.”

Gao Min looked at the two powerful figures on her left and right, and almost cried with emotion.

If her artists had recognized these two big shots earlier, they wouldn't have had to go through so many twists and turns in the past few years.

Looking back now, it's all filled with bitter tears.

Just as the group was having a lively discussion about Ye Wanxi's future career plans, a phone call came in.

Gao Min looked at her ringing phone, glanced apologetically at everyone, and answered the call as she stood up.

Before I could even take a step, I was stunned into place by what the person on the other end of the phone was saying.

"What did you say? You're Director Chan Tak-pong?"

The people in the room paused, their hands reaching for their chopsticks, and their eyes all turned to Gao Min.

Qi Yingxuan gestured for Gao Min to sit down again, and silently indicated to her to turn on her phone's speakerphone.

Gao Min nodded, talking to the person on the other end of the phone as she sat back down: "Yes, yes, I am Ye Wanxi's agent, my name is Gao Min."

"Hello, I'm Chen Debang. Here's the thing, I have a script that's about to start filming, and there's a character whose image and temperament are a perfect match for your company's artist, Ms. Ye Wanxi. I was wondering if you'd be interested in auditioning for her?"

Gao Min took a deep breath and turned to look at Ye Wanxi questioningly.

Although Director Chen Debang is not particularly famous among the younger generation of directors, his father is a national treasure-level director.

Although he is now retired, his network of connections is no joke.

Most of the famous directors in the industry are friends of Director Chen's father. It's no exaggeration to say that if you can get in touch with Chen Debang and gain his favor, it's like getting a stepping stone to the big screen.

Before Gao Min could say anything, Qi Yingxuan suddenly spoke up.

"A script that's about to start filming? Old Chen, you're not talking about that script that caused such a stir a while ago, the one that everyone who touched was doomed, are you?"

Gao Min was completely unprepared for Qi Yingxuan's sudden interruption, and Chen Debang on the other end of the phone was clearly also taken aback.

After a long silence, a roar suddenly came from the other end of the phone: "Damn it, Qi Yingxuan, what are you doing here? Isn't this Ye Wanxi's agent?"

Qi Yingxuan had clearly anticipated Chen Debang's reaction, and he grinned smugly: "Alright, alright, stop yelling. You didn't dial the wrong number, this is indeed Xiao Xixi's agent's phone number, but they're both at my house right now."

"At your house? And it's Xiao Xixi? What's your relationship with her? Holy crap, you single dog, you've actually found a girlfriend and even brought her to your house to meet your parents? Is this girl blind?"

"Screw you! I'm not like some guy who was used to being a simp in college and ended up with nothing. Also, don't slander my sister's innocence with empty words, or I'll beat you up."

Although he has a heart that wants to cause trouble anytime and anywhere, if he really takes his fake relationship with his junior sister to real, his senior brother will probably cut him into a human stick and throw him into the river when he regains his memory!

"Your sister? When did you get a sister? Is she your biological sister or a lover? Tsk tsk tsk, Qi bastard, it's been years, and you've turned into this freak! You've actually started doing these crooked things like those hypocrites in the industry!"

The two exchanged barbs, their words scathing and sharp. Gao Min listened with bated breath, fearing that Qi Yingxuan's retorts might provoke him into blacklisting their artist.

Ye Wanxi didn't think too much about it, and only asked with a slight doubt, "University?"
