Chapter 356 Pan Xiaowei: Sister Man, I can’t pay it back (Please subscribe to support!)
…
When Pan Xiaowei opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the dazzling sunlight.
After blocking the sunlight with his hands, Pan Xiaowei realized that he was in an unfamiliar environment.
Pink walls, pink decorations, pink bed, everything is pink.
It was obvious that this was the room of a young woman.
Pan Xiaowei turned his head to look at the window, and then saw a pure and sexy figure with long flowing hair.
Although Pan Xiaowei did not see the woman's appearance clearly at first because of the sunlight, he still recognized her as Hu Man because he was too familiar with her.
Pan Xiaowei immediately sat up, at a loss as to what to do.
He wanted to ask, "Sister Man, why am I here?", but Pan Xiaowei really didn't have the courage to talk to the person he felt most sorry for in his life.
It was Hu Man who, after hearing the subtle movement made by Pan Xiaowei, turned around and asked openly, "Are you awake?"
Pan Xiaowei then said awkwardly: "I...why am I here?"
"You drank too much last night and lay on the side of the road. I happened to pass by and picked you up," said Hu Man.
After listening to him, Pan Xiaowei said, "Thank you, Sister Man. I have something else to do later. I'll treat you to a meal next time I have the chance."
After saying that, Pan Xiaowei hurriedly got up and prepared to escape from Hu Man's house.
"Are you so afraid of me?" Hu Man said slowly.
Pan Xiaowei's movements froze! After a long silence, Pan Xiaowei said, "It's not that I'm afraid, it's... I feel sorry for you, so I don't have the face to see you."
Hu Man stared at Pan Xiaowei's wandering eyes for a while and asked, "Did you know that I aborted our child?"
Pan Xiaowei said quickly, "It's not your fault. I'm the bastard, I'm the scumbag, I'm sick, I broke up with you even after you spent all my money and got pregnant, and forced you to take on The Mirror of Bliss to survive the crisis. It's all my fault."
After saying everything he wanted to say, Pan Xiaowei felt a lot more relaxed.
After taking a deep breath, Pan Xiaowei said softly, "I'm not doing well now, and I don't know what I can do in the future, but I promise you, if I do well one day, I will do my best to compensate you."
After saying that, Pan Xiaowei walked out, not daring to look at Hu Man again.
When Pan Xiaowei was about to reach the door of the bedroom, Hu Man suddenly said, "Compensate me? You and your parents and grandmother are living in your father's friend's house, your father is heavily in debt and sick, and you don't even have a proper job. How are you going to compensate me? How long are you going to make me wait?"
Pan Xiaowei couldn't help but stop after hearing this.
Pan Xiaowei knew that Hu Man had completely grasped his current dire situation. He was still the same as before with Hu Man, without any secrets at all.
Pan Xiaowei did not get angry because Hu Man revealed his scars. He just said weakly: "Sister Man, can't you leave me a last bit of dignity?"
"Dignity is earned by yourself, not left for you by others," Hu Man said seemingly ruthlessly.
Pan Xiaowei really didn't want to show off his strength towards Hu Man, and he couldn't do that.
So Pan Xiaowei turned around, looked at Hu Man, and said frankly: "I also want to regain my dignity, my family's property, my ancestors' Longxing Grand Theater, and make up for the mistakes I made. But now I have nothing and no skills. How can you let me make a comeback?"
"Don't look down on yourself. You grew up in a wealthy family, and what you've seen and heard may be something that others will never learn in their entire lives. You're also a serious student at the Central Academy of Drama, and you have many connections with teachers and classmates. As long as you make use of all of these, you may be able to win back your dignity, your family's property, your ancestors' Longxing Grand Theater, and make up for the mistakes you've made."
"Besides, who can live a smooth life until old age? Didn't Yu Qingyun spend ten years in prison before he could achieve his current success? You are only in your early twenties now. Your youth is your greatest asset. Who can guarantee that in ten years, you won't become the second Yu Qingyun?"
Seeing that he had done such a bad thing to Hu Man, but Hu Man still cared about him, encouraged him and comforted him, Pan Xiaowei's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Pan Xiaowei quickly covered his eyes with his hands, then forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Sister Man, I understand. I'll go back and study it and see how to use what you said."
Pan Xiaowei pretended to glance at his watch, which didn't actually exist, and said, "I really have to go, otherwise I'll be late for business."
Hu Man knew Pan Xiaowei's personality too well, so she didn't bother to talk nonsense with Pan Xiaowei anymore. She just said in a commanding tone: "Have a meal with me, and then I will take you somewhere."
"Oh, okay."
Faced with Hu Man's "order", the cunning Pan Xiaowei agreed without hesitation.
But as soon as he said it, Pan Xiaowei regretted it.
——Pan Xiaowei is a man who cares a lot about his reputation. He really doesn’t want to have too much contact with Hu Man when he is so down and out. Just like he told Hu Man, he wants to keep the last bit of his dignity.
However, Pan Xiaowei had already promised Hu Man, so how could he change his mind now?
There was no other way, Pan Xiaowei could only sit on the sofa and watch Hu Man preparing breakfast in an orderly manner.
In fact, Hu Man didn’t make a sumptuous breakfast. She just cooked two bowls of clear soup noodles, which she is best at.
Pan Xiaowei used to eat this clear soup noodle often - when Pan Xiaowei was still with Hu Man, every time he drank too much outside, Hu Man would cook him a bowl of this clear soup noodle to warm his stomach.
In the past, Pan Xiaowei really didn’t think that this clear soup noodle was so delicious. If Hu Man hadn’t forced and coaxed him to eat it every time, he would have fallen asleep and would never have eaten this watery clear soup noodle.
But for some reason, when he ate the same clear soup noodles again this time, Pan Xiaowei felt that this was the most delicious delicacy in the world.
"I am still so cheap. I only know the good when I lose something."
While making fun of himself, Pan Xiaowei even drank up all the noodle soup.
When Hu Man saw this, she pushed herself in front of Pan Xiaowei.
Pan Xiaowei stared at the noodles for a while, but couldn't resist the temptation of this most delicious food in the world. He rubbed his nose, then took the noodles and started eating.
Seeing Pan Xiaowei eating voraciously, Hu Man's eyes softened a lot.
After Pan Xiaowei finished eating, Hu Man took Pan Xiaowei to the underground garage and got into a blue BMW sports car.
Pan Xiaowei didn't ask Hu Man where she was taking him.
Pan Xiaowei thought: "Sister Man wants me to sell my kidney, so I will go with her."
Of course, Hu Man did not force Pan Xiaowei to sell his kidney. Instead, she took Pan Xiaowei to a commercial building close to the center of Shanghai, and then took Pan Xiaowei to the 13th floor.
Hu Man took Pan Xiaowei directly to a company with a "CRAZYBARBY" sign. She took out the key, opened the door, and walked in first.
Pan Xiaowei hesitated for a moment, then followed him in.
Pan Xiaowei looked around and found that this seemed to be a brand new fashion company that mainly dealt in overseas women's clothing, skin care products and other products.
Pan Xiaowei could no longer suppress his curiosity and asked, "What is this?"
"My company's main products include fashion boutiques, clothing, and we will soon expand into skin care products, cosmetics, high-end jewelry and watches, but it is only a prototype at the moment," said Hu Man.
Pan Xiaowei never expected that Hu Man had gone from having nothing to owning a fashion company just over a year after breaking up with him.
Then I thought about Hu Man’s house of nearly 200 square meters and her sports car worth nearly one million.
How could Pan Xiaowei not know that Hu Man was doing well after leaving him?
Pan Xiaowei said sincerely: "Congratulations, Sister Man, you finally realized your dream."
As Hu Man's ex-boyfriend, how could Pan Xiaowei not know that Hu Man had always dreamed of establishing her own fashion brand? "The company has just been established and there is nothing yet. What is there for you to congratulate?" Hu Man said casually.
How could anyone believe that someone could rent such a large office building and start such a large company in this place where every inch of land is valuable? Pan Xiaowei, who is no longer the Amon of the past, could say nothing.
Pan Xiaowei smiled and said, "Everything will be fine. Fashion is very popular now. Sister Man, you have caught the cusp of the trend. You will definitely be able to make CRAZYBARBY bigger and stronger."
"That makes sense."
At this point, Hu Man looked at Pan Xiaowei and said casually, "How about you come over and help me?"
"?"
Pan Xiaowei was stunned: "I help you?"
"You know my situation. I have no one to rely on. Besides, I still have to make money in the entertainment industry. I don't have the energy to run my own company, but I don't trust others to run it. Although you have many problems, at least you won't cheat me out of money. So come and be my general manager and help me build the CRAZYBARBY brand."
Pan Xiaowei was no longer the ignorant young man he used to be. How could he not understand that Hu Man was trying to help him? Pan Xiaowei declined without thinking, "Thank you for your kindness, Sister Man, but I really don't understand fashion and I really can't help you."
"If you don't understand, go and learn. How old are you? Have you lost the ability to learn?" Hu Man asked provocatively.
Facing Hu Man's provocation, Pan Xiaowei smiled bitterly: "Sister Man, please stop forcing me. I know you want to help me, but I really don't want to owe you anything anymore. I can't pay it back."
Since Pan Xiaowei had already made it clear, Hu Man simply gritted her teeth and said, "Pan Xiaowei, I hate you. You've made me suffer a lot, and made me go through a past that is comparable to what I went through when I first debuted. You know, so you have to compensate me."
"I don't want to waste my time talking to you. If you help me make CRAZYBARBY bigger and stronger, then our previous accounts will be written off. Otherwise, I will hate you for the rest of my life. No, I will hate you for the rest of my life, the next life after that, and the next life after that!"
After hearing what Hu Man said, Pan Xiaowei fell silent with a guilty look on his face.
After a long while, Pan Xiaowei finally said, "Okay, Sister Man, I'll help you. When I help you make CRAZYBARBY stronger and bigger, I'll pay you back for what I owe you. Is that okay?"
"Can."
After hesitating for a while, Hu Man continued, "There are some things I must tell you in advance, so that you won't think I'm lying to you and quit halfway through the work."
Pan Xiaowei nodded: "You say, Sister Man."
Hu Man took a deep breath and said, "The money I earned from opening CRAZYBARBY is not clean. In addition to the money I made from filming "The Mirror of Bliss", there is also some money that my ex-boyfriend and I got as compensation after we broke up, and some money that I made from dating some wealthy people. If you can't accept it, get out as soon as possible."
The character played by Hu Man in "The Mirror of Bliss" has superb kung fu skills, and the 3D visual effects have left a deep impression on many people.
Many wealthy men who like to pursue excitement have tried all kinds of women, so it is inevitable that they want to compete with a master like Hu Man.
Just like many rich men, they end up marrying those battle-hardened island girls.
The reason why Hu Man made so much money in just over a year was largely due to this channel.
Hu Man was afraid that Pan Xiaowei would find out about her affairs through other channels in the future, which would be bad news, so she simply gave Pan Xiaowei a shot of prevention.
Pan Xiaowei already knew how extravagant those wealthy people were, and he knew even more how dirty the entertainment industry was, with female stars working as prostitutes, and even male stars doing the same.
Compared with those people, Hu Man is really as pure as a white lotus.
Pan Xiaowei did not blame Hu Man, he only blamed himself: "If I hadn't been an asshole and broke up with Sister Man when she was at her most helpless, Sister Man would definitely not have come to this point."
"It's all my fault."
After secretly hating himself for a while, Pan Xiaowei pretended to be calm and said, "I know. I won't despise you."
Hearing Pan Xiaowei say this, Hu Man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was very happy at the same time, but she said, "I don't care whether you dislike me or not, Pan Xiaowei, please don't get the situation wrong, I just want you to help me make CRAZYBARBY stronger and bigger, help me make money, and compensate for my youth and my losses. Please don't have any other ideas."
"Oh, okay." Pan Xiaowei replied.
After handing the company keys to Pan Xiaowei, Hu Man also gave her car keys to Pan Xiaowei.
Pan Xiaowei quickly declined: "How can I drive your car?"
Hu Man forced the car keys into Pan Xiaowei's hands: "This is not for you to play with, but for your work. Why are you refusing?"
Hu Man added: "Don't be so hypocritical about these little things. If you really feel sorry for me and really want to make it up to me, then make CRAZYBARBY bigger and stronger for me and make it one of the Fortune 500. Then we can part ways and never have anything to do with each other again."
Pan Xiaowei was deeply moved by Hu Man's concern, the opportunities she gave him, and the way she protected his pitiful self-esteem.
Pan Xiaowei secretly vowed: "I must do my best to help Sister Man make CRAZYBARBY stronger and bigger and make it one of the Fortune 500!"
From then on, Pan Xiaowei began to help Hu Man with CRAZYBARBY wholeheartedly.
Whenever Pan Xiaowei encounters something he can't handle, he will go to his father Pan Xulong for advice.
If the Pan family was still the upper class family in Shanghai, Pan Xulong would definitely not let Pan Xiaowei get entangled with the porn star Hu Man.
But now, Hu Man has become the only lifeline for the Pan family to return to the upper class of Shanghai.
Therefore, Pan Xulong not only did not oppose Pan Xiaowei and Hu Man being together, but also silently supported Pan Xiaowei in helping Hu Man to do CRAZYBARBY...
