Chapter 157 The Little Garden
At lunchtime, the rooftop garden on the fourteenth floor was quite crowded.
A small garden that can seat about fifty people, and it seems that almost every table is occupied.
When Lu Yanhe appeared, he attracted the attention of some people.
Although celebrities are often seen at this company, Lu Yanhe has been the focus of public opinion in recent days. Everyone is curious about who he is that Chen Ziyan would choose.
Lu Yanhe looked up and quickly found Lin Miaomiao.
She was wearing a white dress and waving at him.
Lu Yanhe walked towards her.
"Why are you here?" In full view of everyone, he pulled out the chair opposite Lin Miaomiao and sat down.
Lin Miaomiao said, "My dad came to your company to talk to your boss, so I came along."
"Don't we have classes?" Lu Yanhe asked, somewhat surprised.
Lin Miaomiao said, "I've taken leave. I haven't been feeling well these past few days."
Lu Yanhe looked at Lin Miaomiao in surprise, not noticing at all that the girl was unwell.
Lin Miaomiao immediately understood Lu Yanhe's thoughts.
She glared at Lu Yanhe angrily and said, "It's all better now. I'm going to school this afternoon."
Whether Lin Miaomiao goes to school or not is none of his business. He was just saying it casually, but Lin Miaomiao seemed to care a lot about his opinion, so he had no choice but to suppress his surprise and nod.
Lin Miaomiao asked, "When will the college entrance exam results be released? Do you know?"
Lu Yanhe said, "Next Thursday."
"Next Thursday?" Lin Miaomiao nodded. "That'll be soon."
"Yes, it'll be soon," Lu Yanhe said.
Lin Miaomiao asked, "Have you estimated your score?"
"without."
"Why don't you estimate your score?" Lin Miaomiao said. "This way, you won't know roughly how many points you'll get."
"The exams are all over, and I performed at my normal level. We'll know when the scores come out," Lu Yanhe said.
Lin Miaomiao glanced at him thoughtfully and said, "I've noticed that you're a very calm person. Others are more anxious about these things than you are."
Lu Yanhe wasn't unhurried, but having gone through the process of waiting for his scores once before, he was more confident this time. Even if he didn't get into Zhenhua or Yuming, his score would definitely be enough to get him into a decent university, and he was certain of that.
While the two of them were talking, the people around them were exchanging knowing glances.
Handsome men and beautiful women sitting together make for a beautiful sight.
Everyone is wondering if Lu Yanhe has started dating someone, or if it's just an ambiguous relationship.
In short, when matters of love and sex get out of other people's mouths, it's like dropping a drop of water into a pan of hot oil—it sizzles and splashes high into the air.
In this digital age, people at the scene not only watch with their eyes, but also secretly take a few photos and post them in their colleagues' group chat to gossip.
Then someone recognized her: Isn't that the daughter of the CEO of Northern Lights Video? CEO Lin is still with our company.

"Hey Yang, just finished eating?"
"Yes, I just finished eating."
Lin Suyang walked into the company, and many people greeted him, to which he responded indifferently.
Because of the huge success of MX, Lin Suyang's status in the company has been rising day by day.
He used to be just an ordinary agent, but now he has become a middle manager with influence.
Lin Suyang stepped into the elevator and overheard the young girl next to him talking about Lu Yanhe.
"...No wonder Chen Ziyan suddenly took a liking to him, it turns out it was because of Lin Miaomiao?"
"Otherwise, how could he suddenly be chosen by Chen Ziyan? I heard that Lu Yanhe was initially asked by the company to terminate his contract, and his original agent, Zhou Ping'an, had already signed a termination agreement with him."
"Really?"
"It's true, the termination agreement was already sent to the HR department, but Chen Ziyan brought over a new contract. You probably haven't been checking the company's website; Lu Yanhe's name was already removed from the company's website before."
"Wow!"
...
Lin Miaomiao?
The name made Lin Suyang ponder.
The name Lu Yanhe had been appearing in his ears far too often lately.
It seems like I hear this name everywhere I go.
This is all because of Chen Ziyan. Chen Ziyan is the nightmare of all the agents at Xingyu Entertainment Agency. With her around, it's like a mountain blocking their way. No matter how well they do, they can't get over that mountain.
People are always superstitious about successful experiences. But there's no denying that the artists Chen Ziyan has mentored have been so successful that no one doesn't value the newcomers she's chosen. Lin Suyang himself is no exception.
MX was a huge hit last year, and its popularity shows no signs of waning this year.
However, some people in the company are now saying that sooner or later Tu Song and Lu Yanhe will surpass MX's artists and become the company's most popular male artists.
Lin Suyang scoffed at this idea, but it also caught his attention. If Lu Yanhe and Tu Song were to surpass MX, would MX still hold such a unique position in the company?
After returning to his office, Lin Suyang immediately asked someone to inquire about Lu Yanhe and Lin Miaomiao's relationship.
-
All told, Lu Yanhe and Lin Miaomiao have only met four times.
But Lin Miaomiao seemed unusually familiar with Lu Yanhe's affairs.
Lin Miaomiao was well aware of everything, from the live-streamed exchange with writers Liu Jiazhen and Mingyin to her upcoming filming.
"So, you won't be in Yuming anymore in July?" Lin Miaomiao asked.
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Yes, it seems we'll be filming somewhere else, not in Yuming."
Just then, a young man in a suit suddenly came over, said something to the people sitting at the table in front of them, and then those people got up and left.
Immediately afterwards, the young man in the suit came over to them.
"Excuse me, gentlemen, could you please find another place?" the man said to them. "Mr. Ma will need this area later."
Lu Yanhe was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
He looked at Lin Miaomiao and said, "How about we go inside the building and find a place?"
Lin Miaomiao looked a little displeased, but still nodded in agreement and said, "Fine, who is Mr. Ma in your company? He's got quite the airs. If he wants to use this place, he can just kick everyone out. Even my dad isn't that extreme."
Lu Yanhe did not answer, but glanced at the young man in the suit.
The man still had a smile on his face and didn't say anything.
As soon as the two of them came out of the rooftop garden, they ran into Vice President Ma and his entourage.
Just as Lu Yanhe was about to lead Lin Miaomiao aside, he heard Lin Miaomiao call out, "Dad."
Lu Yanhe glanced at Lin Miaomiao in surprise.
Lin Miaomiao looked at the man who was being warmly greeted by Vice President Ma.
Lu Yanhe had searched for him online and recognized him immediately: Lin Desheng from the Northern Lights video platform.
Upon seeing Lin Miaomiao, Lin Desheng immediately said, "I was wondering where you'd been. What are you doing here? Didn't we agree that you'd stay by my side?"
"I'm here to see a friend." Lin Miaomiao pointed to Lu Yanhe. "Look, it's him, Lu Yanhe."
As Lin Miaomiao and Lin Desheng, father and daughter, continued their conversation, the surrounding crowd turned their incredulous gazes toward Lu Yanhe.
Among all these people, the most shocked was Vice President Ma.
He finally managed to invite Lin Desheng over today to discuss a very important collaboration.
He was in charge of artist management at Star Entertainment. Unlike other agencies, Star Entertainment had too many young artists. People in the industry said they were raising a lot of talent, which speaks volumes about their numbers.
How to give the company's artists greater exposure is a problem that Vice President Ma has been worrying about for the past few years.
He brought Lin Desheng along because he wanted to negotiate a framework agreement with Aurora Video to secure more resources for his company's artists. Aurora Video produces countless programs and participates in numerous film and television productions annually. Many talent agencies negotiate framework agreements with video platforms for this very reason; signing a company-wide agreement avoids the need for staff to negotiate individually, and the scale of cooperation is significantly larger.
During the negotiations, Lin Desheng mentioned Lu Yanhe's name, saying that cooperation was no problem, but there needed to be a foundation, such as Lu Yanhe. If they were to cooperate, they would sign him for five dramas and three variety shows at once. To put it bluntly, he was optimistic about Lu Yanhe's future development and was therefore betting on him.
Vice President Ma was still wondering to himself how a big boss like Lin Desheng would know Lu Yanhe's name. Now that he did, it turned out it was because he had a daughter who knew Lu Yanhe.
With everyone watching, Lu Yanhe greeted them generously, "Hello, President Lin."
Lin Desheng carefully examined Lu Yanhe, nodded, and said, "What a coincidence, Mr. Ma, how about we chat? I saw Lu Yanhe from your company on the news a while ago, and he received a lot of praise from the authorities."
Vice President Ma was extremely unwilling, but at this moment he could only smile and say yes.
"What are you talking about?" Lin Miaomiao snorted at this moment. "I was having a nice chat with Lu Yanhe in that little garden when we were suddenly kicked out. They said that Boss Ma needed to use us and told us to find another place. No, no, you guys chat."
She looked completely clueless about who Mr. Ma was, and complained with dissatisfaction.
Lu Yanhe: "..."
Although he had no evidence, he felt that Lin Miaomiao did it on purpose.
Lu Yanhe had witnessed Lin Miaomiao's temper before.
But she is also a very clever and intelligent girl.
Under these circumstances, how could Lin Miaomiao not guess that the person next to her father was President Ma?
A look of embarrassment appeared on Vice President Ma's face.
"Oh, Miaomiao, Uncle Ma has to apologize to you." Vice President Ma bent over in an instant. He said, "I had something to discuss with your father, and I happened to see this garden, so I thought I'd come here to chat. The environment is more comfortable. I didn't expect to disturb you."
Lin Desheng sighed and said, "I've spoiled my daughter, Mr. Ma, please don't mind."
He turned to look at Lu Yanhe, "Little Lu, I was just talking to President Ma about a collaboration, and we also talked about you. Why don't we sit down and have a good chat?"
