Chapter 7: Exercise to become a big man

As a graduate of a music college, he debuted as a singer in a variety show, and then entered the entertainment industry as a non-professional, becoming the youngest actor to win the Best Actor Award. Pei Lang, apart from acting and singing, really doesn't have any other skills.

Could it be that he wants to be a martial arts coach?

In his previous life, his mother died in childbirth, and he depended on his father for life. In order to prevent his child from being bullied because of being from a single-parent family, his father forced him to learn martial arts, and that is why he is the best actor in the entertainment industry. But in his previous life, he had a very solid foundation, and his current body is not bad, but it is not strong enough.

Now I am living and eating for free here. I need to get my body in shape first, and then find a part-time job that pays decently to tide me over. I need to be fully prepared to enter the acting industry.

Therefore, Yan Han had seen Pei Lang jogging outside the villa in the past few days. He was wearing a loose and comfortable sports suit. There was a beautiful green landscape outside the villa. Facing the early morning sunshine, that figure was so attractive that people couldn't take their eyes off him.

Yan Han was staring at the figure in the distance, and Su Jia came over with a file bag.

Yan Han: "What is he doing?"

"Back to the boss, exercise."

"Exercise?" It's strange. The person who used to be obsessed with hooking up with her brother-in-law and dressing up has changed recently.

"Yes, Mr. Pei said that this is a world full of gays. If you don't have a strong body, if you get bent, you might not be able to control the little bottom you like. That's why I started working out. Mr. Pei said he wants to be a big hunchback."

Su Jia was full of disdain when he explained, and Yan Han's mouth twitched when he heard it. "Did he really say that?"

So he is pestering Yan Xiuyuan in order to put pressure on him?

Pei Lang pinned the tough guy Yan Xiuyuan down on the bed, his lips raised in an evil way, grinning as he bullied the guy until he cried. Thinking of this, Yan Han's face suddenly turned bad, as if something dirty was entangled with him. He moved anxiously and a little panicked to drive the wheelchair away. "Go to the company."

"Boss, you haven't had breakfast yet?" Su Jia caught up. As Yan Han's personal assistant, he had to worry about everything, big and small. Breakfast was the key to starting a good day. The boss was busy with all kinds of things, so three meals a day must be nutritious and eaten on time.

"Nausea, nausea, no appetite."

"Boss, are you feeling unwell? Let's ask Dr. Liu to come over and take a look." Su Jia was worried and took out his cell phone to make a call.

"No need."

Pei Lang didn't know how much psychological shadow his words had caused to Yan Han. After his morning run, he did some stretching, then slowly walked back, took a shower, and changed into clean clothes.

While nestling in his room, he was looking for a part-time job. A report about depression caught his attention. The theme of this website was to focus on mental health. The website was large and well-known. Pei Lang had only clicked in to browse around, but he did not expect that there was a job posting at the end. They were hiring painters and singers, and the requirement was that they had to have a healing style. After the application was successful, the songs or drawings they sang would be published on the website, and commissions would be paid based on the click-through rate and the number of views.

He can't draw, but he can try singing.

Singing here can be anonymous. Pei Lang doesn't want to be a singer. He wants to be an actor after he gets his body in shape, so anonymity is in line with his wishes. He can make money while doing charity work, and he doesn't have to show up in public. No one knows that he is the madman that everyone hates. At present, this part-time job is the most suitable.

But here, he didn't have any music certificates, and when he submitted his resume, he simply described himself. Perhaps there were too many people who submitted their resumes, so he didn't receive a reply for a long time.

Don't be impatient when it comes to finding a job, just wait and see.

After lunch, he received a text message inviting him to join a group chat. There would be an online audition, and he would need to sing a song. Only those whose voices met the requirements would be accepted. After joining the group chat, he found that the people who came for the interview were all unknown singers, and some were still college students. That was why the threshold was so low, and one did not need too many music certificates to have an interview opportunity.

In order to prepare for the interview, Pei Lang decided to go out and buy equipment.

"Are you ready?" In an entertainment venue in Nanfeng, a man in a suit and leather shoes was sitting on a leather sofa. He had handsome features, but at this moment, his face was frosty, his brows were wrinkled, and he looked vicious.

He is the male protagonist Yan Xiuyuan, Pei Ziqing’s official partner.

"Everything is ready." The subordinate replied.

Pei Ziqing sat next to him, with another shallow mark on his face, which looked like a scratch by a fingernail, not deep, with blood oozing out, a long blood mark. The wound was not serious, but as an actor, his face needed to be insured, not to mention that Yan Xiuyuan loved him so much, just a little wound was enough to make Yan Xiuyuan fall in love with him.

"Xiuyuan, what are you going to do?" Pei Ziqing is very beautiful, prettier than a woman, with willow-shaped eyebrows and peach blossom eyes. Maybe she has cried, her eyes are red and moist, and her pitiful appearance makes people want to hold her in their arms and comfort her. "Brother is like this, sometimes he can't control his emotions, I don't think he means it. Xiuyuan, I only have this one brother, you are not allowed to hurt him, and mom and dad will be sad, although brother often doesn't listen to dad, but after all, we are a family."

Pei Ziqing was deeply hurt by what Pei Lang said that day. He wanted to kill Pei Lang. Only when Pei Lang died and was gone, his family would be complete, and the fact that he was an illegitimate child could be erased.

Pei Lang's existence told him that he was an illegitimate child who could even be ridiculed by trash.

So, he scratched his face and pretended to stay away from Yan Xiuyuan. When Yan Xiuyuan was worried, he showed up fully armed, letting him notice the wound on his face. Then he cried and complained about his grievances, blaming Pei Lang. Yan Xiuyuan would definitely vent his anger for him.

But his kind character could not be defeated, so he said these words, and these few sentences showed his kindness and Pei Lang's viciousness vividly and exquisitely.

As expected, Yan Xiuyuan was so distressed that he pulled the man into his arms. "Ziqing, you are just too kind. If a person doesn't care about himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. What about his relatives? He treats you like this, and you are the only one who still treats him as a brother."

"But, I only have this one brother." Pei Ziqing felt aggrieved, tears welled up in her eyes, leaving a wet mark on Yan Xiuyuan's clothes.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, my dear. I promised you that I wouldn't go too far, but you still have to be taught a lesson. I didn't expect that you still didn't give up after being detained for half a month, and you attacked you as soon as you got out. Do you know how sad I am?" Yan Xiuyuan kissed away the tears while comforting her, and placed Pei Ziqing in the highest position to pity and cherish her.

"Camera, medicine, men, everything is ready. I promise you that you will only pose for pictures and not do anything serious. This time, I will make sure that he will be humiliated and unable to turn over. My dear, don't beg for him anymore. I'm already doing you a favor by not taking his life." Pei Ziqing had been hurt time and again, so Yan Xiuyuan would teach him a lesson even if Pei Ziqing begged for mercy.

"Thank you, Xiuyuan. You are so kind to me. I don't know how to repay you."

"I'm your future husband, so of course I have to treat you well." Holding Pei Ziqing's face, gentleman Yan Xiuyuan caressed her lovingly, his lips close to hers, giving just the right amount of pressure, making people feel nervous but not feeling it was excessive.

As expected, Pei Ziqing's face turned red, and he was vague. "I... thank you. I made you wait for too long. I am a child from an ordinary family. I rejected you again and again because I was not good enough. I just wanted to walk side by side with you and be good enough to make everyone sincerely bless us."

"I know Ziqing, you didn't keep me waiting in vain."

The two of them flirted and confessed their love on the sofa, ignoring the subordinates around them, and Pei Lang had no idea that there was a trap waiting for him.

He spent almost all his savings to buy music creation equipment. He had already decided that if he failed the interview, he would become an anonymous online singer. He needed all the equipment anyway, so he might as well buy them all at once. The staff helped to move the equipment to his home, and Pei Lang installed it himself, unaware that danger was quietly approaching.

The house Yan Han gave him was big enough and soundproofed. Even after all the equipment was moved in, the room was still spacious. While he was busy, a strange call came in. There was no name, and there weren't many people he knew here. Pei Lang hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call. "Hello, who is this?"

"Pei Lang, it's me." The tone of the other party was arrogant, even mixed with disdain. Pei Lang frowned and thought, he really didn't know who it was. Could it be someone he had offended before?

In order not to expose his ignorance of the other party, Pei Lang did not dwell on who the other party was. "What do you want?"

"Heh~ You've been pestering me for so long, why are you being so cool now? Don't you want to see me? Let's talk tonight at 8 o'clock at Lingyan Bar."

Pei Lang suddenly realized.

It turns out to be the male lead.

I had doubts about the character of the male protagonist in this world, and now it is confirmed that the man on the other end of the phone is not the gentle and considerate male protagonist in my memory, but clearly the arrogant and domineering rich kid.

The original owner was really pitiful. After being entangled for so long, he didn't even get the other party's mobile phone number. But think about it, Yan Xiuyuan is such a person, and not everyone has his personal mobile phone number.

"We don't have anything to talk about, right? You're afraid to avoid me, aren't you?" Pei Lang didn't think that asking him out at this time was just for a simple chat. Thinking of Pei Ziqing's scheming look when his character collapsed, Yan Xiuyuan's initiative to ask him out was probably for the Hongmen Banquet. "Yan Xiuyuan, I won't bother you anymore in the future. People like you should be tied to Pei Ziqing for life."

A proud son of a business family would actually listen to Pei Ziqing for love. This is probably related to the original owner's bad life experience. It would not be strange for the original owner to do anything excessive, so he would naturally believe it without a doubt, not to mention that the two protagonists love and trust each other so much.

Not wanting to mix up the two protagonists' affairs, Pei Lang hung up the phone. Yan Xiuyuan was furious when he heard the busy tone. His cheeks were throbbing with anger. Pei Ziqing asked nervously, "Xiuyuan, what did your brother say?"

"Heh, he's just playing hard to get. He'll definitely come." After Pei Lang hung up the phone, Yan Xiuyuan's teeth were almost broken. When he talked to Pei Ziqing, he returned to his gentle appearance. "Ziqing, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

"Xiuyuan, you're not tired. Can I watch at night? I'm afraid those men will hurt my brother without any mercy."

Worried about Pei Ziqing's kindness and afraid that his character would cause him to suffer in the future, Yan Xiuyuan sighed softly and decided to protect him well in the future. "Okay, we'll watch it next door. If you find it disgusting, we won't watch it."

"Okay, Xiuyuan is the best." You bastard, this time I'll make sure you never get back on your feet!

The viciousness in Pei Ziqing's eyes flashed away so quickly that almost no one noticed it.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Lang threw his phone aside and continued to do his own thing.

Time passes quietly, the sun sets, painting patches of clouds on the horizon, the sunset gradually fades, the city lights flicker, and the stars in the night sky contrast, the world is bustling, and the night sky is silent.

After a busy day, Pei Lang was hungry, so he ran to the kitchen to cook. He happened to meet the aunt who was cooking. The aunt didn't like Pei Lang at first, but Pei Lang had changed recently and could chat with Yan Han. The aunt didn't show her dislike so obviously, at most she ignored him.
