Chapter 156 Life is about taking risks
"Grandpa, look, you said you weren't biased, but now that Xingxing is back, you've started to dislike your granddaughter."
Lin Qiao grumbled unhappily from the side.
"Yes, yes, I don't care about you as my granddaughter anymore. My granddaughter is more compatible with me!"
Grandpa Han immediately followed her lead.
Lu Wanxing found it somewhat amusing to watch the grandfather and grandson bickering.
"Alright, this is just a preview, why don't you try it out too? It's quite fun."
"No way! There's a proper age for everything. What I want to do now is find a few more handsome guys."
She had barely finished speaking when the old man, who was playing chess, tapped her on the head.
"You're so young, what are you spouting all this nonsense about? Always talking about finding several handsome guys, why don't you find a girlfriend first?"
"Grandpa, you don't understand, who still looks for a partner these days?"
"So what are you looking for first?"
"Looking for handsome guys? You can only have one girlfriend, but you can have several handsome guys."
After saying that, the old man was already thinking of hitting her with the sole of his shoe.
Lin Qiao ran away immediately.
The old man watched her run away, his beard practically bristling with anger.
"Look at this unreliable guy. Instead of looking for a partner, he complains that he can only have one. Do you young people these days have such a fickle mindset?"
Lu Wanxing: ......
That's a difficult question to answer!
After all, that's what I think right now.
But she didn't dare to say it.
I was afraid that if I told him, my grandfather would chase after me and beat me.
I'm pregnant now, so I probably won't outlive someone this old.
So all I could do was force a smile.
"Hehe, Grandpa, Xiao Qiao is just joking. If she meets the right person, she will naturally get married. There's no rush."
"Hmph, I think he was being very sincere when he said that. He probably just wants to find more partners, which is similar to those scumbags you guys talk about."
Lu Wanxing touched her nose.
Lin Qiao has now been labeled as a "scumbag woman".
"You're still young, so focus on your career first."
As Lu Wanxing spoke, she placed another piece of chess. The old man looked at the chessboard again and realized that his house had been robbed without him noticing.
"Oops, I lost again!"
The old man sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.
"Grandpa, you're always so distracted. If you were focused, I definitely wouldn't be able to beat you."
Lu Wanxing said with a smile.
"Alright, stop trying to fool me. Your mother's chess skills are well-known among my old friends. You were taught by her, so naturally you can't be too bad at it."
The old man was quite pleased with this.
My daughter has always been very capable.
He had known this for a long time, which is why he could be so at ease even after so many years of no news about Han Ximan.
Firstly, because she was capable and had her own ideas, he was only worried about what dangers the child might encounter; otherwise, there was really nothing to worry about.
"Forget it, I'm not playing chess anymore. I'm going to get my skateboard."
The old man then left.
Lu Wanxing was shocked.
After the old man left, Lin Qiao reappeared mysteriously.
"Were you scared by my grandfather's hobbies?"
Lu Wanxing nodded blankly.
"That's right. I always thought Grandpa's hobbies were just playing chess and fishing..."
Compared to activities that require sitting and minimal movement, these are more suitable for older adults.
But skateboarding seems a bit too energetic.
"Hehe, you have no idea how much trouble Grandpa used to do. He did some high-altitude projects. If it weren't for his age, he might still be flying in the sky now."
Lu Wanxing was absolutely shocked.
This grandpa is so young!
"Xiao Qiao, I suddenly feel like we're not as good as Grandpa."
Lin Qiao gave an awkward laugh.
"Yes, you're not the only one with this idea."
He patted her shoulder meaningfully as he spoke.
The old man did indeed bring out his skateboard.
There was an open space in the yard, and people started sliding on it.
This move looks like it's done by a pro.
Lu Wanxing couldn't help but clap her hands.
"Indeed, life is about taking risks!"
They seem to have already started taking care of their health at such a young age.
But at my grandfather's age, he's actually starting to seek out thrills.
This has been directly switched over.
"Don't worry, Grandpa has many more surprises in store for you."
Lin Qiao raised an eyebrow at her.
After saying that, he looked at the old man and whistled.
"Wuhu~ Grandpa is awesome! Go Grandpa! Cool!"
Lu Wanxing: ......
That was an incredibly well-placed compliment!
Not to be outdone, she joined in the applause.
Life at the Han family's house was very lively.
But Sister Yu still contacted me.
"Xingxing, you haven't forgotten about what you said about going to audition, have you?"
Sister Yu's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Sister Yu, I haven't forgotten, but I really might not take this role."
"Yes, I know. I'll talk to General Manager Fan on your behalf. You just need to go through the motions."
Lu Wanxing nodded.
"Is there any notification from above? If there is, please let me know."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you."
However, the result that Sister Yu reported to the higher-ups was not very good.
President Fan was unwilling to see Lu Wanxing, such a valuable cash cow, leave.
So he reported this situation to Bo Si Nian above.
Bo Sinian also made it clear that there was no need to block Lu Wanxing's resources.
Previously, he only wanted Lu Wanxing to give in and take the initiative to beg him.
But after the other party made such a resolute decision, Bo Sinian also felt that what he had done was somewhat naive.
Therefore, I also asked my assistant to continue providing Lu Wanxing with the resources that were previously due.
Assistant Ding knew this would be the outcome.
There was absolutely no surprise in it.
In the past, when these two argued, it seemed like Bo was waiting for Lu Wanxing to back down, but in the end, it was always Bo who admitted defeat first.
Then they dumped a lot of resources on the network of evening stars.
They even contacted a foreign director team after they learned that Lu Wanxing liked performing.
It was all so that Lu Wanxing could become a leading actress in Hollywood.
This has never happened before in the country.
After all, they have their own leading lady, so they certainly wouldn't hire a Chinese actress.
In addition, very few celebrities from this area can go to Hollywood.
Even if they went, they only appeared on screen for about ten seconds.
Very, very few.
He knew how hostile people there were to Easterners.
So this matter has been going on for a long time, and we've been in talks ever since.
Bo Sinian's offer was that he could invest money and send Lu Wanxing to Hollywood.
To be honest, Assistant Ding himself could see the sincerity in this gesture, but the person involved just couldn't see it.
He was at a loss.
Now we can only wait and see when these two will finally get it.
