Chapter 9 Who is the financial sponsor?



==

Xia Xingchi was shocked to see him suddenly coughing like this. His mind was overwhelmed by the huge sum of money and he didn't realize that he was the culprit.

In order to prevent the accidental death of the financial sponsor on his first day on the job, he quickly stood up and patted Li Chengyuan gently to calm him down.

At the same time, I thought that this man's body was so precious and fragile, so I had to take good care of him and try to make him live longer.

Li Chengyuan covered his lips with one hand and pushed him away with the other.

I didn't expect Xia Xingchi to be so flexible. She was obviously terribly afraid of him before, but now she just calls him husband for money.

He coughed for a long time before finally calming down, looking a little unnatural: "Just call me by my full name."

Xia Xingchi noticed that he seemed unhappy, so he decisively grabbed the bank card that seemed to be shining with gold and kept it before he changed his mind.

After being excited for a long time, Xia Xingchi finally remembered to ask the reason: "Li Xian, Li Chengyuan, can I ask why it was me?"

This pie in the sky is too big, it’s poisonous and you can’t eat it.

"I needed a legal partner, and you just happened to show up."

As Li Chengyuan was speaking, Summer finally succeeded in jumping onto him.

This time he didn't chase it away. Instead, he touched its head. It immediately purred happily, like a little engine.

Xia Xingchi tilted his head. If we need a legal partner, can we just get married regardless of gender?

It seems a bit outrageous to solve this lifelong event in this way.

But when I thought that Li Chengyuan only had half a year to live, I felt that it would be better to just take it easy.

Otherwise, if he was truly in love with someone, how sad would his lover be after he died?

This idea finally convinced Xia Xingchi, and he no longer had any concerns or doubts about this pie in the sky. He even felt that he was absolutely suitable for this job.

Just as I was happily thinking about it, I suddenly heard Li Chengyuan say, "Come here."

Xia Xingchi didn't understand what was going on, so he obediently stood up, walked around the table and came to him.

She couldn't help but look down quietly, and saw Li Chengyuan's slender, bony fingers gently resting on Summer's pure white and soft fur, stroking it lightly and casually.

Xia Xingchi looked more and more greedy, and then he saw Li Chengyuan slightly raised his chin and said, "Touch it."

--Um? Does he know that I miss his cat? Am I being so obvious?

But the most important thing is that I can finally rub the big fluffy tail of my dream cat!

With Li Chengyuan around, Summer rarely got angry. He just lay on his master's lap with his eyes narrowed, enjoying it, and let Xia Xingchi's fingers stroke his fluffy and soft fur.

Even gently pinching the tip of its tail didn't annoy it.

Xia Xingchi squatted on the ground and stroked the cat happily. He buried his face in the fragrant fur and sighed contentedly while looking up.

In just ten minutes, I got both money and the freedom to pet cats.

Is this the happiness of having a wife, children and a warm bed?

"Yes, I—"

The second half of the sentence got stuck.

Because when Xia Xingchi looked up, he suddenly met Li Chengyuan's very strange expression.

He...is laughing.

The smile was extremely terrifying, and those deep amber eyes stared at him intently, mixed with some strong emotions.

Like the ecstasy and obsession after getting something you've always dreamed of.

Xia Xingchi was startled suddenly, and forgot what he wanted to say for a moment. He just felt creepy and sat down on the ground immediately.

——Oh my god, this horrifying expression, it would be unfair to him if he wasn’t treated as a crazy villain.

Fortunately, Li Chengyuan also realized the problem. He turned his head away unnaturally, his expression suddenly restrained, and he returned to his usual calmness in an instant.

Xia Xingchi's heart was still beating wildly, and he wondered what had happened to him.

It can't be that he is unhappy because I petted his cat.

Or is it that he is always so evil and is not targeting me?

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Neither of them spoke, just wasting time like this until Aunt Li knocked on the door: "Sir, Master, dinner is ready."

Xia Xingchi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that, and he jumped up and ran downstairs.

.

The dinner was quite sumptuous, and in the past it would have been worth at least a month's worth of his food expenses.

As if by coincidence, the dish was particularly to his taste. The aroma of the braised spareribs tempted him, and the strange scene in the study was finally forgotten.

Because he was poor, Xia Xingchi always adhered to the virtue of "eat as much as you can" and "eat everything", but in fact he had a clear distinction between what he liked and didn't like to eat.

The dish in front of Li Chengyuan was very light. He did not pick up his chopsticks immediately, but just watched Xia Xingchi eat happily.

The person concerned is happy about his freedom to eat meat and is completely unaware of it.

Until his cell phone suddenly vibrated. He turned around with a small fish in his mouth and saw the two big words "Lin Meng" on the screen.

He is his agent. He is now an 18th-tier unknown artist, while Lin Meng is an unpopular agent who is on the bench. The two are simply inseparable.

Xia Xingchi chewed the fish and thought, Yes, I am not an unemployed vagrant now, I...ah! It’s all over!

He finally remembered what he had forgotten when he was scared by Li Chengyuan's smile in the study room just now.

He has a commercial to shoot tonight!

I have only been in the book for a few days and am not familiar with the business yet. I have completely forgotten my current career.

As an unknown celebrity who was secretly and madly squeezed out by the "popular idol Xia Yu", Xia Xingchi had countless black fans and negative information before he became famous.

And the few scraps, like this ad.

Xia Xingchi quickly picked up the phone while thinking that he was doomed.

Lin Meng on the other side urged: "Xingchi, have you set off yet? We have to get up early today."

"Han Ningyu's home court. He is well-known for bullying the weak and fearing the strong. He loves to show off and find faults with the 18th-tier people to feel superior."

Lin Meng was obviously very busy as both a manager and an assistant. She hung up the phone in a hurry and at the end she urged him to leave quickly.

Xia Xingchi went crazy the moment she looked at her watch. No wonder she was in a hurry. At this time, let alone arriving early, she would probably have to arrive at the shooting site on time.

Fortunately, the original owner was forcibly dragged into the entertainment industry by Xia Yu as a control group. It has only been half a year and he is not very proficient in the business like himself.

Otherwise, not only will you forget about your work, you might even end up making more jokes.

Xia Xingchi quickly opened the taxi-hailing app, praying in his heart that a driver would accept the order soon.

I was typing when the screen suddenly went white, and there was no response no matter how hard I poked.

This weather-beaten broken phone with a broken screen actually broke down completely at this critical moment.

Xia Xingchi:.........

Why does bad luck always open the door for bad luck?

I am just unlucky!

Li Chengyuan suddenly said: "Go change your clothes, I'll drive you there."

This instantly reminded Xia Xingchi that he was "snatched" back from the engagement party, and his clothes and luggage were all at Xia's house.

At this moment, he saw the servants bringing in a lot of paper bags, all of which were new models of the season from high-end luxury brands. When he opened them, he found that the size was just right for him.

It was like helping someone in need. When Xia Xingchi looked at Li Chengyuan, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

This is more than just a villain, this is also Doraemon.

In fact, just like a premeditated engagement, the clothes were also prepared two days in advance.

On the night Xia Xingchi traveled through the book, when Li Chengyuan woke up briefly and pushed him down on the bed, he already had a rough idea of ​​his size.

So Secretary Ye got the opportunity to "go shopping on imperial orders".

Under the shocked and awe-inspiring gaze of the salesgirl, I took out Mr. Li's black card and swiped it, experiencing the legendary joy of booking the entire restaurant.

Without time to choose, Xia Xingchi grabbed a paper bag and rushed into the room, and before closing the door, he said:

"You eat, and just lend me your phone so I can call a taxi."

Taxi drivers don't pass by this luxury estate, and hailing a taxi randomly on the street is hopeless.

Unexpectedly, when Xia Xingchi jumped out of the room like a rabbit, he saw Li Chengyuan was already dressed.

But he didn't touch the food on the dining table.

Xia Xingchi immediately hesitated: "Wait, you haven't eaten yet..."

His stomach was so delicate and fragile that if he skipped dinner, he would probably get sick that night.

Li Chengyuan ignored him, picked up the car keys and walked towards the elevator in the villa, obviously not willing to accept any rebuttal.

Xia Xingchi had no choice but to shut up and followed him downstairs, taking his first look at the vast underground garage that was comparable to a top auto show.

Probably because he didn't bring a driver, he didn't choose the ordinary Rolls-Royce he had driven before, but instead chose a rather cool silver-gray sports car.

He didn’t recognize the car logo, but Xia Xingchi felt it must be very valuable.

.

"My goodness, you're finally here! I was really worried that you wouldn't be able to get a taxi at this time!" Lin Meng quickly pushed Xia Xingchi to the dressing room.

The company refused to provide him with a nanny car, and the original owner was too poor to buy a car.

As a miserable and marginalized agent, Lin Meng is just as miserable as Xia Xingchi.

Xia Xingchi's very attractive face was reflected in the makeup mirror:

He has a heavy complexion, with delicate and bright features, but he does not look feminine at all. He only gives people a feeling of warm sunshine and youthful vigor.

Lin Meng watched from the side, and the more she watched, the more amazed she became.

After a while, I realized——

It does look good, but it seems...it didn't look like this before, right?

But whether you think carefully about Xia Xingchi's original appearance, or look back at photos and videos, the three words "Xia Xingchi" always correspond to this face.

Some silent and mysterious changes no one can detect.

Several more people entered the dressing room one after another.

They are all young male artists who conform to current aesthetic standards, but they are also unknown and have very low net worth.

This is an advertisement for a new brand of massage chairs. Because they don’t have the money to hire expensive celebrities, they have to get together seven gourd brothers to try to save their grandfather.

The only artist with some fame is "Han Ningyu" whom Lin Meng mentioned on the phone earlier.

Because Xia Xingchi was very good-looking, the makeup artist didn't need to spend much effort and put on makeup for her quickly.

Lin Meng glanced at it and noticed something flashing on his middle finger.

After taking a closer look, she realized it was a large pigeon egg full of diamonds that was dazzling. She quickly reached out and tapped his fingers:

"Take it off quickly. We can't wear something so ambiguous. It will be misinterpreted as love or engagement... and it's too fake and we'll be laughed at."

A piece of this size would cost millions, but where would Xia Xingchi get the money?

Xia Xingchi was stunned, and suddenly remembered this important event in his life, but Sister Lin Meng didn't know that he was already engaged.

This gave rise to a variety of questions:

Can an artist get engaged and married?

What is the content of the contract? Will it constitute a breach of contract?

And the issue that little money lovers are most concerned about is whether they will be fined.

Never mind, it’s not real love anyway.

Xia Xingchi shook his head. Li Chengyuan would be gone in half a year at most, so it was better to have less trouble than more.

He took off the ring obediently, Lin Meng nodded, and then quickly went out again in a busy manner.

.

Maybe they were not familiar with each other, and it was particularly awkward not to recognize each other if they were both "artists", so even though more and more people came into the dressing room, they didn't chat much.

The atmosphere was quiet, when the door suddenly opened with a startling sound!

The other person walked with a very loud sound, as if carrying the wind.

Xia Xingchi looked up with disgust and confusion, and saw a very conspicuous weirdo wearing sunglasses at night walking in.

With two assistants following behind him, he stands out among the lonely 18th-tier actors.

The man with sunglasses frowned and looked around for a moment, then asked ruthlessly and disdainfully:

"There's not even a private dressing room here? Are you asking me to squeeze in with them?"

He also deliberately emphasized the word "they", showing his superiority.

Xia Xingchi immediately understood. It seemed that this was the protagonist of today's advertisement, Han Ningyu.

Once the atmosphere quieted down, everyone would be furious when someone put on airs in front of them.

But no one refuted him. Some people remained silent, and some even smiled and greeted him, "Brother Han." Others had no choice but to politely follow suit.

If everyone here had some support, they wouldn't be so confused.

Therefore, even though Han Ningyu was not a big shot, no one wanted to confront him head-on.

"Brother Han, your private dressing room is next door," the advertising staff hurried over with a smile, "I'll take you there right away."

The person who spoke was polite on the surface, but he was actually speechless in his heart: How could he have gone the wrong way with such a big sign?

It's nothing more than a pheasant turning into a phoenix and can't wait to show off his power everywhere. For the sake of his new backer, everyone has to put up with it.

Han Ningyu looked at the flattering expressions of the crowd through his sunglasses and was immediately very satisfied.

But after looking around, he frowned again——

In the corner, a young man who was wearing the latest luxury brands from head to toe and had a very outstanding appearance, not only did not look at him, but instead kept his head down and fiddled with a thin rope and a ring.

Han Ningyu's eyes suddenly became unfriendly, and he stared at Xia Xingchi for a long time, perhaps hoping to threaten him in this way.

This caused everyone else to turn around and look at him.

The embarrassing thing was that even until Han Ningyu's eyes were sore from staring, Xia Xingchi didn't react at all and didn't even have the intention of looking at him.

Although the harm is not high, it is extremely insulting.

Therefore, Han Ningyu was extremely annoyed when he left, and he slammed the door so hard that it seemed as if he was going to smash the window glass in the air.

The earth-shattering sound of the door closing lasted for a long time before someone finally couldn't help but yelled angrily, "Damn! He's just so shameless!"

"I heard that Han Ningyu has found a rich sponsor. He has great resources now and is making a lot of money!"

Xia Xiaocai, who had just been concentrating on his work and was afraid that his hand would slip and drop the pigeon egg, finally finished weaving.

When I heard the word "money", the radar antenna above my head immediately stood up, and I wanted to understand more about how to make more money in this circle.

"Financial sponsor? He's showing off his 2.58 million. Who is the financial sponsor?"

"I don't know, but he must be very rich - I just saw a Silber downstairs!"

Xia Xingchi tilted his head, wondering what Xierbei was.

Someone exclaimed, "Oh my god, that top-of-the-line supercar that starts at at least 50 million? I've never seen one in person!"

"The driver definitely doesn't drive this car. Is it because his sponsor personally sent him here? He is so spoiled. No wonder Han Ningyu dares to act like this."

The more Xia Xingchi listened, the more shocked he became. The money-grubber's values ​​were shattered several times in one day. Could it be that he really had luxury cars worth tens of millions in his real life?

Is this made of gold? It should be displayed at the auto show. Would the owner really be willing to drive it?

Anyway, Han Ningyu is really lucky. He can make money and do whatever he wants. Where can he get such a sponsor?

One person looked out the window and took a deep breath:

"You're talking about that car, right? His sponsor didn't leave and has been guarding downstairs."

Everyone was bored, so they all leaned against the window and looked out.

Seeing this, Xia Xingchi also stretched his head out curiously——

In the vast night, a very conspicuous silver-gray sports car was parked in the dimness, it couldn't be more familiar.

Xia Xingchi:......! ! !

Are they talking about Li Chengyuan? !

Someone who was originally enjoying the melon and completely staying out of the matter was stunned and even dropped the non-existent melon to the ground in shock.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Crowd: He is picked up and dropped off by cars. His sponsor is so good to him and really loves him, right?
