Chapter 42. Lu He'an was furious, and the audience...

Lu He'an was furious, and so were the viewers; the screen was filled with asterisks in the comments.

【*! Is this a human?!】

This is disgusting!! ***! How can such a weirdo exist?!

Lu He'an stepped forward angrily, but before he could start yelling, he heard the agent hesitantly ask, "So, what do you plan to do about Fang Xuan?"

Lu He'an's steps suddenly stopped.

Upon hearing this, Wang Luo scoffed, his voice brimming with nonchalance and blatant contempt, as if Fang Xuan weren't a person, but a rag doll he could casually discard: "Go back and divide him up, he's just a worthless piece of trash. He dared to talk back to me! You don't know how hard I slapped him last night, and seeing the red mark on his face this morning was so satisfying, I..."

Just as Wang Luo was about to continue showing off, he saw his agent's expression suddenly change, and the agent frantically winked at him. Wang Luo was startled and sensed something was wrong, so he subconsciously turned his head.

A glass of cold water came flying at him, along with the plastic cup that slipped from his hand and hit his face.

Wang Luo felt a sharp pain on his face and instinctively reached out to grab Lu He'an's hand and hit him, but when he glanced to the side, he saw Xiao Ji carrying a camera.

Wang Luo paused, quickly withdrew his hand, and his previously flushed face turned deathly pale. His lips trembled violently, and he asked in a shivering voice, "Are you filming us?"

As they were talking, Shen Li and Fang Xuan pushed open the glass door and walked in. Upon seeing Wang Luo's unpleasant expression, Shen Li quickly took a few steps forward and pulled Lu He'an behind her.

"No, I'm not." Lu He'an peeked out from Shen Li's right shoulder, grinned, and seeing Wang Luo's expression soften, he revealed an innocent smile, "I was just taking pictures of you."

Wang Luo's face turned ashen instantly. His pupils trembled rapidly, and he staggered back a step, his large body slamming heavily against the table before slumping back onto his stool.

It's over.

Wang Luo's lips trembled as he said, "It's all over."

[Is Fang Xuan wearing such thick foundation today because this idiot slapped her?! And then her fans chased and cursed her all day??]

[Wait, wait, Wang Luo and Fang Xuan are a couple??]

So Wang Luo has a boyfriend, but he also wants to pursue Shen Li? How disgusting!

[How can my brother be dating? I don't approve!]

[It's alright, your brother can talk freely now, since he'll be gone from the public eye soon, right? Wang Luo hasn't joined any productions or had any activities lately, and now he's even hitting people, haha.]

Inside the cabin, Zhao Xian took a big gulp of chrysanthemum tea to calm her turbulent emotions. She must have been out of her mind to agree to repay her old classmate's favor, thus planting this huge seed of trouble in her heart.

Zhao Xian couldn't stand it anymore. She threw down her headphones and said to the assistant director next to her, "Quickly ask Gao Jing's agent if he's available. I'm so angry!"

After Lu He'an and the other two left, Wang Luo's agent, Wu Lin, suddenly came to his senses and immediately took out his phone to call Zhao Xian, only to have the call ruthlessly hung up.

Wu Lin quickly made another phone call.

As expected, the other party didn't answer.

Seeing this, Wang Luo raised his eyes, revealing a gloomy expression: "Am I finished?"

Wu Lin pursed his lips, said nothing, and dialed again.

The phone was ringing with a "beep beep" sound, indicating it was waiting to be connected. Wang Luo and Wu Lin both held their breath; if the call didn't go through, then it was truly hopeless.

“哢”

The call was connected.

Wu Lin quickly said, "Hello, Mr. Chen. Oh, I'm Wang Luo's agent, Xiao Wu. This is..."

Wu Lin was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

Mr. Chen: "Xiao Wu, it's not that I don't want to help Wang Luo. To repay his life-saving grace, I even risked my reputation. Didn't I try to promote him for the two years after I signed him? But I just couldn't make him work! Last year, Xiao Lu was about to sign a contract for that variety show, but I managed to snatch it away from him."

He said this show was popular and asked me to get him on it. I even poached Gao Jing from him! Who is Gao Jing? He's a top-tier idol! Is Wang Luo even on the same level as him? I risked everything in front of my old classmate, and what did I get in return? You're not going to say anything more. Wang Luo's contract expires in three months, and he won't renew it. Goodbye.

"Hello? Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen?"

The phone call was abruptly ended.

Wu Lin looked at Wang Luo, about to say a few words of comfort, when he saw Wang Luo sweep all the plates in front of him to the ground with a jarring, sharp sound.

The waiter came over in response, and Wu Lin quickly said, "I'm sorry, we'll compensate you. Please wait a moment."

"No, this can't be! He can't do this to me! I saved his life... How can he be so ungrateful?!"

Seeing Wang Luo's crazed expression, Wu Lin was startled. He subtly distanced himself and sighed, "You've been deceiving yourself all these years. You know perfectly well that you're just passing by and there's no saving you..."

"Shut up!" Wang Luo was hit where it hurt most. If the truth came out, Chen Feng would definitely kill him.

Wang Luo's gaze fell on Wu Lin, and half a minute later he suddenly smiled, put his hands on Wu Lin's shoulders, and said in a light and eerie tone: "Why don't you go sleep with that person again?"

Wu Lin's pupils widened instantly as he stared incredulously at Wang Luo's almost greedy face: "Are you fucking crazy? Who was I doing this for? You said that if you got that opportunity, you'd definitely become famous, and what happened? The filming was a complete disaster, forcing the screenwriter to cut the outline and not let you continue filming, and now I'm fucking married!"

Wu Lin spoke almost in a low voice, his eyes bloodshot, breathing heavily, and his whole body trembling. This was something his wife absolutely could not know.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, it happened to be the monthly town market in Yanshui Town, which was held in the square in front of the town government. When Shen Li and the others arrived, the designated area in the square was already filled with tables.

The three of them searched for a spot in two separate circles but couldn't find one. Luckily, an auntie selling grilled sausages noticed that the three of them were good-looking and moved her stall together to make room for them in a small space of about two square meters.

Lu He'an beamed, "Thank you, sis! Do you have any pets at home? I'll give you a bag of cookies."

Auntie: "Oh dear, my dog ​​can't eat all of this. This is for pet dogs."

"That's perfect, let them try it out." With that, Lu He'an took a bag and stuffed it into the aunt's hand.

Although the townspeople browsing the market weren't all pet owners like those in Central Park, quite a few still had cats and dogs at home, and half an hour later, they had sold quite a few.

Fang Xuan's foundation had worn off somewhat, and under the lens of the expensive camera, the red marks underneath faintly revealed the force of the pressure.

Another wave of sympathy swept through the live chat; it was a miracle that no one bled from the force.

A girl bought a grilled sausage from the stall next door. She walked up to the small wooden table, stopped, poked at it a couple of times, and asked, "Handsome, is this all you have?"

Shen Li nodded and said gently, "Yes, everything else is sold out. Only pet biscuits and cucumber chicken slices are left."

Girl: "Okay, I'll take one pack of each."

As it approached four o'clock, only a packet of cucumber and chicken slices remained on the small wooden table. Shen Li had calculated the income and expected to have a surplus of several hundred yuan for the next period, provided that Wang Luo's hotpot expenses were not counted.

With the program's deadline of 4 o'clock fast approaching, Shen Li thought that if no one bought the remaining bag, he would buy it and take it back for Dong Li to eat. Later, when he returned to the baking shop, he would buy some cat treats.

Shen Li was lost in thought and didn't notice Lu He'an's ghost-like expression beside her.

"Hello, how much is this bag?"

A deep, magnetic voice came from ahead, and a tall, slender figure blocked the view.

Shen Li paused, then suddenly looked up and saw the man's face. His almond-shaped eyes widened instantly, and a bright light flashed in his brown eyes.

Shen Li originally thought Jiang Huaichuan would be waiting for him in the cabin, but he never expected to find this place through the live stream.

Shen Li skillfully stroked the soft little ears of the cow cat in Jiang Huaichuan's arms, and the corners of her mouth kept turning up.

Well... since Father is here, let him buy it.

Shen Li pursed her lips shyly: "20 yuan, scan this code."

Jiang Huaichuan stared intently at Shen Li, and seeing the surprise and delight in his eyes, Jiang Huaichuan's heart softened completely: "Okay."

There was nothing on the small wooden table except for the QR code for receiving payments, so Jiang Huaichuan simply placed the frozen pear on the table and let it walk around freely.

As soon as it was released, Frozen Pear took two steps forward and fell down in front of Shen Li with a "plop," its round little eyes wide open and its soft little belly exposed.

"Meow~"

Wow! Handsome guy! Great cat!

[How can you tell he's handsome just from his back?]

[Don't say anything. As long as his face hasn't been clearly photographed, I'll take care of what to do with it.]

[That fashion sense! That physique! That voice! He's definitely a handsome guy! Cameraman, we need to move you to another shooting location immediately!]

The cameraman, Xiao Ji, immediately shifted the camera angle slightly upon seeing the man's face, preventing it from being captured in the shot.

Just kidding. Although he didn't know why the president of the Jiang Group was here, could he really afford to take pictures of someone like that?

When Shen Li touched the kitten's belly, the comments section erupted in cheers, with no one knowing whether they were envious of Shen Li or the kitten.

Help! Is this cat so outgoing?

Why can't my cat be touched by Buddhist monks, while other people's cats meow and act cute around strangers? Why?!

Sister, maybe it's because of your looks?

Okay, you've hit my main artery, so please shut up (bitter smile)

Lu He'an looked up at the sunset on the horizon...

That's because he's this cat's father... how could they not be familiar with each other?

"puff!"

Damn it!

Zhou Ya's eyes widened as she grabbed a few tissues to wipe her mouth, the table covered in splattered milk tea.

Even if it's just a glimpse of the boss's back, the secretaries who work under the boss's nose every day are very familiar with his back.

Why is Jiang Zemin appearing on variety shows? Shouldn't he only appear on serious and formal financial talk shows?!

Zhou Ya quickly took a screenshot and sent it to Liu Na via WeChat.

[Zhou Yaya: Nana! Look!!]
