Synopsis: [Next novel: "The CEO Picks Food, I Spin the Table" – The more the CEO's persona collapses, the more rewards!] One second, Xiao He was leading a team fighting zombies. The n...
Xiao He always remembered that the world she was currently in was just a novel called "Entertainment Era" and everyone was just a character in it.
Even Jiang Ye, a top star in the music industry, is no exception.
How could a paper man like her?
While I was happy, this question popped up in my mind.
"What is a paper man?" Jiang Ye asked in confusion.
He had imagined that Xiao He would have many reactions after he said it, whether it was a nod or a rejection, but he had not expected this one.
The reason why Xiao He kept hoarding supplies was because he felt that one day he would travel back in time again, so he prepared things in advance so that he could use them after returning to the apocalypse.
But as time goes by, her ties with this world seem to grow stronger.
At first, I was just an artist who passively accepted the role and simply performed my duties. Later, I took the initiative to sign contracts with others and gradually fell in love with the job of agent.
Now there are other factors.
Can a normal person be with a paper man?
Xiao He was thinking about it when he suddenly recalled the kiss in the editing room and froze.
It seems...there is nothing wrong with it?
When Jiang Ye said that he liked her just now, the excitement in her heart was so intense that even she couldn't ignore it.
But if one day he suddenly returns to the end of the world and the space can only accommodate mutant beasts and dead things, but not living people, what will Jiang Ye do?
Xiao He thought about this question carefully.
Jiang Ye on the opposite side saw that she was slow to answer and his eyes gradually dimmed.
"I see."
Xiao He was still thinking about how to deal with Jiang Ye, and suddenly heard these words, and felt a little confused.
When I looked up, I saw Jiang Ye looking listless, like a puppy abandoned on the roadside.
"Wait, what do you know?"
She hasn't said anything yet.
But Jiang Ye suddenly stood up, straightened his messy clothes, then looked up and smiled at Xiao He, and the fire in his bright eyes rekindled.
"Can I chase you then?"
"?"
Xiao He was a little confused.
She had been chased by thousands of zombies, mutant beasts, and even other people with special abilities who were trying to steal supplies, but she had never been chased by a human.
What does it feel like to be pursued?
Is there any zombie chasing excitement?
As he thought about it, Xiao He nodded.
Seeing this, Jiang Ye was immediately delighted and left excitedly.
The next day, Xiao He had just woken up when the doorbell suddenly rang.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Jiang Ye standing outside, holding a steaming hot breakfast in his hand.
"I made breakfast, let's eat together."
Xiao He skillfully moved aside to let him in.
Ever since she moved in, she often ate and drank at Jiang Ye's house. Seeing this, the brothers Xia Zhibei and Xia Zhinan sat down in the restaurant as if they were familiar with the place.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xiao He was a little confused.
This seems to be no different from usual.
After dinner, Jiang Ye followed Xiao He to the company and followed her closely.
He hasn't had much work recently, just a few sporadic activities. Every time he finishes attending one, he rushes back to the company to find Xiao He.
Xiao He drank water and he handed her the cup.
Xiao He was holding a meeting and he was watching.
After a few days of this, Xiao He remained calm, but Brother Jian couldn't help it.
After the meeting, he grabbed Jiang Ye and took him to the lounge next door.
"What's wrong with you lately? You're always following Xiao He around."
These days, no matter where Xiao He appears, Jiang Ye can always be seen running around him. Those who know him think he is a singer, while those who don’t think he is Xiao He’s assistant.
Jiang Ye said seriously: "I'm pursuing her."
puff--
Brother Jian spat out a mouthful of drink and turned around in shock.
"What did you say?!"
"I've been pursuing Xiao He for several days. Can't you see?"
Brother Jian shook his head.
"I can't tell. I thought Xiao He had recruited a new little brother for himself."
Jiang Ye had already shown signs of liking Xiao He a long time ago, but he didn't expect that Xiao He would not take responsibility even after kissing him.
Haha, scumbag.
However, judging from Jiang Ye's recent actions, it is hard to tell that he is pursuing someone.
This is actually not Jiang Ye’s fault.
It was his first time pursuing someone, and he had even done some research, but the suggestions provided were somewhat inappropriate.
Cooking.
He has been responsible for Xiao He's family's meals since last year.
Have dinner together.
Not to mention dinner, they even ate breakfast and lunch together, because Xiao He had to eat with him.
Meet often and cultivate feelings.
They lived on the same floor above and below each other, worked in the same company, and were agent and artist. Due to work reasons, they were sometimes even together almost 24 hours a day.
Jiang Ye looked around and found that these things were part of their daily routine.
So, he could only go through the information he found once again and become a clingy little tail.
He was helpless because of his inexperience, but how could Xiao He have any experience?
Xiao He had been chased by zombies many times, but no one had.
So, she drank the coffee Jiang Ye had poured as usual, wrapped in the small blanket he had prepared, and thought: Jiang Ye said he wanted to pursue her? Why hasn't he started yet?
Jiang Ye’s inner thoughts: I have already started.
After hearing his worries, Brother Jian felt so anxious that he almost died. He wished he could turn into a head-control squad and take action directly.
"Xiao He is just a piece of stone. You can't do this."
Jiang Ye looked at him doubtfully.
"What should we do then?"
As a married man himself, Brother Jian smiled and said with great experience, "Catering to her preferences is the key. Women mostly like flowers, diamonds, and bags. If you buy a lot for her, it will be hard for her not to be moved."
Then he patted Jiang Ye on the shoulder.
"Come on, I can only help you up to this point."
After saying this, he turned and left, hiding his achievements and fame.
Jiang Ye pondered this sentence carefully, but was a little hesitant, because Xiao He didn't like what Brother Jian said given his personality.
She likes something else...
At five o'clock in the afternoon, when it was almost time to get off work, a large truck stopped in front of the Blue Star Entertainment Building.
The plain truck was out of tune with the fashionable surroundings. As soon as the truck stopped, several well-trained workers began to unload the goods and then carried them into the company in a steady stream.
The employees of Blue Star Entertainment saw such a scene for the first time. They stopped and looked at their actions in shock, not knowing what was going on.
Brother Jian has just finished teaching his love skills to Jiang Ye. I believe that Xiao He and Jiang Ye will be able to succeed soon.
By then, he can be considered a half-matchmaker.
While thinking, Brother Jian walked through the corridor and suddenly saw several workers in uniform moving bags of things into the company.
He followed them out of curiosity and found that they were on the same floor as him.
The group of workers carrying things walked into Xiao He's office in unison, and a familiar voice came from inside:
"Just put it here, I'll move in later."
"Trouble everyone."
After all the workers left, Brother Jian walked over and saw a "small hill" appeared in Xiao He's office.
His eyes widened.
"What are these?"
"rice."
"Have you forgotten what I told you this morning?"
"I remember, but I thought about it and realized Xiao He didn't like any of the things you mentioned, so I changed them. I wanted to give Xiao He a surprise."
Hearing this, Brother Jian looked at the things in the office.
Twenty-pound bags of rice were piled up to form a small hill. A string of sausages was hung on each layer of rice bags, and the top of the mountain was decorated with a box of shiny luncheon meat.
Is this the surprise Jiang Ye mentioned?
What if you put a flower on it?
Brother Jian took a deep breath, unable to express his current mental state.
I asked you to send diamonds and flowers, but you sent rice and sausages. I have never seen anything so contradictory as this.
"Do you think Xiao He will be happy if I give you these things?"
Brother Jian felt heartbroken when he saw Jiang Ye, whose face was red from moving rice.
Who would like to receive something like this when being pursued?
He must be taught a lesson.
Brother Jian was thinking about it and was about to give some instructions when a scream suddenly came from outside.
"What is this! Heaven?"
The two quickly turned around and saw Xiao He looking at the "Supply Tower" in his office with surprise, and walked in excitedly.
"This rice is soft, sticky, and sweet. This sausage is the best. And this luncheon meat has a shelf life of two years! Who makes this?"
Jiang Ye walked over, feeling a little nervous.
"I gave this to you. Do you like it?"
Xiao He looked surprised.
“This is literally the best gift I’ve ever received!”
This gift is exactly what she likes!
For the first time, Brother Jian saw such an excited expression in Xiao He's eyes, which were even glowing slightly, as if what was placed in front of her was not rice, but diamonds, not sausages, but flowers.
"Just now I heard them say that there is a truck parked at the door, and it is delivering these?" Xiao He asked at this time.
Jiang Ye nodded.
"I bought a lot more, and they are all downstairs now."
Hearing this, Xiao He rolled up his sleeves on the spot.
"So what are you waiting for? Move it now!"
After saying that, the two of them quickly walked downstairs.
Brother Jian was completely speechless as he watched the two people leave.
How could any normal person like this kind of thing?
I thought about it, and then suddenly realized it.
He forgot.
Xiao He is not an ordinary person at all, and cannot be judged by common sense.
Jiang Ye's ideas were exactly in sync with hers.
It’s like this, why don’t you get married?
Brother Jian felt very sad at this moment, and sincerely hoped that after Jiang Ye's concert started, the two of them could stay away from him so as not to be heartbroken.
Jiang Ye’s concert was actually planned since his comeback. As soon as his new album was released, netizens had been calling for it, so the company took advantage of the situation and immediately began preparing for a national tour.
Although this is not his first concert, after five years, the company is determined to make this tour the best it can be.
Recently, every meeting Xiao He held was about this matter. He constantly discussed and coordinated with the staff, and even the company leaders were very concerned about it.
Jiang Ye attended the meeting several times, but every time he met the general manager, he would avoid his gaze when he saw him.
Especially when he saw Jiang Ye helping Xiao He, he sighed frequently and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
A few days later, Jiang Ye received a text message from the general manager.
"Jiang Ye, come to the office and let's talk. Just come up by yourself and don't tell Xiao He."
Jiang Ye came to the top-floor office confused.
As soon as he entered, the general manager looked at him.
"Ever since you participated in that interview program last time, everyone has been speculating about your relationship. I went to Xiao He's office that day and wanted to ask about it, but when I opened the door and walked in, I saw Xiao He and you on the sofa..."
He took a deep breath and asked with concern: "Did she bully you?"
The general manager has been worried these days.
In his eyes, Jiang Ye is a great contributor to the company. He was lost for five years and then recovered. Although he is physically weak, he is kind-hearted and can easily suffer losses.
But Xiao He is different.
This woman is no ordinary person. She is strong and can kill someone with one punch.
How could Jiang Ye not suffer a loss if he faced her?
That day, Xiao He acted like a bully, pushing Jiang Ye down on the sofa, obviously intending to bully him.
Whenever he thought of that scene, the general manager couldn't sleep or eat.
So sad.
He had been waiting for Jiang Ye to come to him for help, but after waiting for a long time, there was no news, so he had no choice but to find him first.
When Jiang Ye heard this, he thought of the general manager's recent sighs at him and immediately understood.
"That's a misunderstanding."
"Of course I know it's a misunderstanding."
The general manager asked anxiously, "Did Xiao He force himself on you? If you have any grievances, you can tell me and I will take care of it for you."
As he spoke, his expression was serious, as if he would immediately sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice as soon as Jiang Ye said so.
Jiang Ye said, "I mean, don't get me wrong, I did it voluntarily."
"What?"
"I volunteered, Xiao He didn't force me."
The general manager was completely devastated.
"That day in the office, Xiao He abused you and you were so angry that your face turned red."
Jiang Ye explained: "I blush because I'm happy."
"But your hands were struggling at that time."
The general manager was a little anxious, recalling the scene at that time.
Xiao He's face was ferocious and he was strong enough to lift a tripod. He pressed Jiang Ye directly onto the sofa. Jiang Ye's face flushed, his eyes were watery, and his hands kept struggling. Isn't this a scene of rape?
Hearing this, Jiang Ye just blushed.
"I wanted to hug her back, but my hands were pinned down and I couldn't pull them free."
“…”
The general manager fell silent for a moment.
High-end hunters often appear as prey.
At this time, Jiang Ye added: "Besides, the person I like is Xiao He."
The general manager was confused when he heard the news after the shock just now.
"What do you like about her?"
These two people don't match each other no matter how you look at it.
Jiang Ye felt a little embarrassed.
"Xiao He is good in every way. I can't compare to her."
Hearing this, the general manager's mouth twitched and he wanted to use a stick to wake up the person in front of him.
Wake up!
You are the top star in the entire music industry and the hero of Blue Star Entertainment!
But when I looked up and saw that whenever Jiang Ye talked about Xiao He, his face was full of love and there was a glimmer in his eyes, I could only silently wish him well.
He warned: "Then you should also be more careful, at least... at least close the door."
Fortunately, it was him who broke in. If it was someone else, they would have been in an uproar by now.
Jiang Ye's face instantly turned red, and he said, "I accidentally fell that day, and Xiao He became like that in order to help me."
"How did you fall?"
"Left foot trips right foot."
“…”
Hearing this answer, the general manager looked indifferent.
Haha, just another trick of a young couple.
He waved his hand.
"Forget it, I don't care about the affairs of young couples. Anyway, your concert will start in a few days. I feel more at ease with Xiao He accompanying you."
Jiang Ye is now more popular than before he retired from the entertainment industry five years ago. His popularity is on the rise, and he has recently heard some bad rumors.
Last month, an artist from another film and television company was kidnapped. After receiving several extortion letters, he was finally rescued after paying a ransom. However, the police have not caught the criminal until now.
Because of the special status of the celebrities, this matter was not announced to the public and was only circulated internally. However, every company is now very cautious and has quietly cancelled many activities.
However, Jiang Ye's concert had been booked long ago and the tickets had been sold, so it couldn't be cancelled easily, so he had to go ahead with it.
But having Xiao He by his side made him feel much more at ease.
After all, with Xiao He's martial power, anyone who dares to come to him will only end up dead.
The general manager's worry that Jiang Ye might be in danger was actually unnecessary.
Jiang Ye usually goes back and forth between two places. The security facilities are very complete both at work and at home. Therefore, when the kidnappers want to kidnap and extort him, he does not seem to be the first person they target.
Almost on the same day that the two had their conversation, Yan Xiuqun went to a nearby shopping mall alone to participate in an event.
As soon as he entered the parking lot, he was knocked unconscious by a club and fell to the ground.
When he woke up, he found himself tied up, and several middle-aged men with unfriendly eyes were standing around him, handing him a mobile phone.
"Call your family right now and ask for a ransom of 50 million."
Hearing this, Yan Xiuqun quickly understood.
Looking at the desperate criminals in front of him, he did not feel afraid. Instead, he thought about it and laughed at himself.
"You're asking me for money? Everyone knows that I, Yan Xiuqun, am no longer popular. I only attend events once every two weeks. How can I afford to give you money?"
The kidnapper was immediately furious.
"You don't want to give it?"
Having said that, he came up and started to take action.
"I don't have money, but others do." Yan Xiuqun said quickly.
Hearing this, the movements of several people suddenly stopped.
"who?"
A dark light flashed in Yan Xiuqun's eyes, and he said, "Our company's most popular and wealthy artist is called Jiang Zaizhou. If you kidnap him, the ransom alone will be enough to feed and clothe you for the rest of your life."
Since Pan Hong was imprisoned, he lost his agent and had to contact organizers to discuss work on his own.
Moreover, due to the negative news released by Pan Hong every week, his reputation and popularity have plummeted, but Yan Xiuqun is still unwilling to accept it.
He was considered a second-tier star at the beginning, and was only one step away from becoming the best actor. But now he can't even get a role, and he only has to make announcements once every two weeks, and has to put up with other people's disapproval.
When had he ever been treated like this?
Especially after hearing about Xiao He and Jiang Zaizhou's relationship, Yan Xiuqun became even more angry.
At first, he tried his best to please Xiao He, but the other party remained unmoved. Unexpectedly, he had already hooked up with Jiang Zaizhou.
During this period, Yan Xiuqun was furious as he watched the two of them going in and out together and their careers rising steadily.
"Nonsense! Do you think we don't know?"
After hearing what Yan Xiuqun said, the kidnapper cursed, "But Jiang Zaizhou is either at home or at the company every day. There's no chance to strike him."
Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen this person.
"I can help you." Yan Xiuqun suddenly said.
The kidnapper was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard.
Yan Xiuqun: "Jiang Zaizhou is about to hold a concert. I will send you his schedule then. His weakness is his fans. If we can exploit this, we can successfully kidnap him."
The enthusiastic attitude made the kidnappers suspicious.
"Why are you helping us?"
Unexpectedly, Yan Xiuquan laughed instead, with a distorted light flashing in his eyes.
"If Jiang Zaizhou was kidnapped, it would definitely be a huge blow to Xiao He, right?"
After an absence of five years, the first concert of Jiang Ye's national tour was arranged in this city. It was a grand event and was held in the largest venue in the country, which could accommodate nearly 80,000 people.
Once the tour schedule and repertoire were confirmed, the final rehearsals began immediately.
This concert was of vital importance. From the early stages of planning, Xiao He had been busy directing everything on site and finalizing the preparations.
She would only leave with Jiang Ye after all the work was finished.
But in recent days, leaving has become increasingly difficult.
I don't know where the news leaked out, but every time there was a rehearsal, there would be a small number of enthusiastic fans gathering outside the venue, shouting his name.
Jiang Ye almost always responds to fans' requests. Every time he sees a fan's request, he will stop and sign autographs.
Sometimes I finish work in the afternoon, but I can’t leave the venue until dark.
In the venue.
Xiao He looked through the schedule in his hand, and as soon as the music ended, he immediately went on stage to find Jiang Ye.
"I have an appointment with a musician this afternoon and can't be late."
Jiang Ye had just finished rehearsal at this time. There were beads of sweat on his forehead and he was panting. He understood what Xiao He meant.
"I'm going to try not to sign autographs today so I can leave early."
Xiao He was still worried.
Jiang Ye is extremely soft-hearted towards his fans. Even if he says this now, he will be unable to help but compromise when he sees the expectant eyes of his fans later.
What's more, even if Jiang Ye didn't sign autographs, his fans would still block the exit.
"I'll drive the car to lead the fans away, and then you can go through the back door. We'll meet at the park behind the venue."
"good."
Jiang Ye nodded, and the two of them took action quickly.
This method of luring the tiger away from the mountain was not the first time they had used it, and it was the fastest way to leave the venue.
At two o'clock, a black car slowly left the venue.
As soon as the fans waiting outside saw the familiar license plate, they immediately surrounded the car and shouted Jiang Ye's name as before, hoping to get his autograph.
But now Xiao He was the only one in the car.
She struggled forward, feeling unable to move forward.
Fortunately, all the fans followed the vehicle and left slowly together. Soon, there was no one outside the venue.
Another twenty minutes passed and Jiang Ye, wearing a hat and a mask, quickly walked out of the back door and headed towards the agreed park.
This venue is located in the suburbs of the city and is usually only populated when there are events. Now, apart from the occasional speeding vehicle, there is almost no one on the road.
Jiang Ye didn't want to keep Xiao He waiting for long, so he walked quickly. Just as he reached the entrance of the park, he was suddenly stopped by someone.
The man who came was a middle-aged man, who looked to be in his thirties or forties, with a burly build and wearing a baseball cap. He became excited when he saw Jiang Ye and happily stopped him at the intersection.
"Jiang Ye, my sister and I are both your fans. If she could see you, she would definitely be very happy! It's just that my sister has been paralyzed since she was a child, but she listens to your songs every day. You are her favorite star!"
Jiang Ye wanted to find Xiao He and kept her instructions in mind. He wanted to leave immediately, but suddenly heard the word "paralysis" and stopped abruptly.
"Thanks."
Seeing his response, the man immediately looked embarrassed.
"I took my sister out for a walk today, but her wheelchair got stuck in the manhole railing. I'm looking for help, but I can't see anyone. Can you help me?"
As he spoke, he pointed to the village across the park.
That area is going to be demolished soon, and now everyone inside has moved out, making it look very desolate.
Jiang Ye turned his head and looked. His years of experience gave him a bad feeling.
"Xiao He is nearby. I'll call her and ask her to come over. It will be more convenient if there are more people to help."
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone and prepared to contact Xiao He.
The man stepped forward to stop them, saying, "Let's go and try it together. There's no need to call. A woman alone won't be able to help much."
Hearing this, Jiang Ye paused.
"You don't know Xiao He?"
Anyone who has even a passing knowledge of the entertainment industry would know Xiao He and would never say such a thing.
What's more, the person in front of him is his loyal fan.
Jiang Ye's eyes instantly became alert. He stepped back and quickly started dialing Xiao He's number.
Just as he was about to dial, the man in front of him suddenly changed his expression, rushed over, and slapped Jiang Ye's phone away.
"Still want to call for help? Just follow us obediently. Don't worry, as long as you get the money, we won't do anything to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, several people appeared from all sides and surrounded him.
Jiang Ye looked at the cell phone that fell to the ground, turned around and kicked away the person blocking the intersection, then suddenly rushed out.
run!
He ran very fast.
Thanks to Xiao He's special training during this period, including running ten kilometers with weights every day, Jiang Ye was able to run very fast when escaping.
In just a blink of an eye, he ran several meters away.
Seeing this, the kidnappers reacted quickly.
"Damn! Isn't he a celebrity? How can he run so fast!?"
The male star they had kidnapped before looked strong but was actually very weak. When he saw them, his legs went limp with fear, let alone escaping.
I didn't expect that Jiang Ye, who looked weak, could be so decisive in his actions.
While running, rush to the crowded place.
However, no matter how fast he was, he could not outrun the car, and soon, Jiang Ye was caught up.
