Chapter 182 Afternoon Tea
It hurts to spend your money?
Upon hearing this, Lord Guan breathed a sigh of relief. At least it proved that it wouldn't be a war that would cause serious damage, just a financial loss. This amount of money was something the Guan family should have paid anyway!
Seeing that Guan Er was quite sensible, Fang Lanxin nodded in satisfaction, and then said directly, "You must be tired after a long day. How about I treat you to dinner tonight?"
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Fang!"
"Hmm, that's more like it. Let's go!"
The two of them then walked outside together.
Soon, Fang Lanxin began her crackdown on the Guan family, but not in Hong Kong; instead, she targeted their overseas assets.
On the other hand, Fang Lanxin didn't forget to send her marketing plan to the entertainment company below, preparing to do a comprehensive marketing for the Huo Group. Then, she took the contract and found Lu Chen.
Lu Chen had been filming on set all this time, so he was overjoyed to see Fang Lanxin arrive.
This is a period drama. Having gotten used to seeing Lu Chen in modern clothes, Fang Lanxin found him incredibly pleasing to the eye now. She walked over, patted Lu Chen's head, and said with a smile, "You've worked hard these past few days. You look a little thinner."
"I've been eating properly, it's just that the workload is a bit heavy, but I'm filming a period drama, so I look good on camera!" Lu Chen said with a smile to Fang Lanxin.
Everything he did was in service of the role.
Seeing Lu Chen's lively and cheerful demeanor, Fang Lanxin smiled gently. She reached out and pulled Lu Chen to sit down in the lounge. She then arranged for the staff to prepare afternoon tea for everyone, so that everyone could take good care of Lu Chen.
Lu Chen chuckled softly and then said, "Sister Fang, you're so good to me. I always feel like someone's backing me up when you're like this!"
"You're right, I'm here to back you up."
"However, this time I came not only to offer support but also to seek cooperation."
"Take a look at this."
Fang Lanxin took out her plan and looked at Lu Chen with a smile.
Upon seeing the proposal, Lu Chen immediately realized what was going on. After glancing at it, he whispered, "You want me to be the spokesperson for the new product? This... wouldn't that be a bit inappropriate?"
"I've thought it over carefully, and you're the best choice for us right now. You're so well-known; as long as you're willing to sincerely promote us, I believe our future sales will definitely increase!"
"As for this resource, although it was obtained through my connections, you truly deserve it, so you don't need to feel any pressure."
Fang Lanxin knew very well that at Lu Chen's age, most of the time, he had a little bit of unspeakable pride. They needed resources, but they were also afraid of being called "resource-backed" by others.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled gently and then said directly, "I'm not afraid of what others say about me; I'm just afraid that my strength isn't enough!"
"That's enough, your strength is absolutely enough!"
Fang Lanxin smiled gently and patted Lu Chen's head.
"Are you busy this afternoon? How about I take you out for something nice to eat, and we can chat about our commercial shoot?"
Lu Chen glanced at the time, then at his script, and after much pleading with the director, he finally managed to find time to go out for dinner with Fang Lanxin.
He was usually very busy, but when it came to Fang Lanxin, he didn't want to be busy; he just wanted to be with her.
Knowing that Lu Chen was pressed for time, Fang Lanxin didn't spend most of her time traveling. She simply found a hotel near the film set and the two of them sat down together.
"Sister Fang, these are all too greasy, I can't eat them." Lu Chen looked at the large pork knuckle on the table, both amused and exasperated. "I'm really full. I've just been too tired lately, that's why I've lost weight!"
"I know, these are all for me." Fang Lanxin pointed to the two vegetable dishes behind her and said calmly, "These are for you!"
this……
Lu Chen looked at his two bland dishes, pouted, and looked rather pitiful.
But for some reason, Fang Lanxin found herself extremely fond of his pitiful appearance. She smiled slightly and said, "Alright, I'm going to start eating now!"
The person who originally said she couldn't eat it now had no choice but to eat it. Seeing Lu Chen's mouth glistening with oil, Fang Lanxin finally nodded in satisfaction.
She smiled at Lu Chen: "We need this advertisement in a bit of a hurry, so we might need you to work overtime to film it during this period. Can you handle it?"
"I can do it. I used to film all night a lot. My favorite thing to do is stay up late." Lu Chen looked at Fang Lanxin with a smile and immediately agreed.
Seeing Lu Chen like this, Fang Lan thought for a moment and then said, "Chen, if you have any difficulties or feel unwell, you must tell me, okay?"
“I know, but I really don’t have any difficulties or discomfort. I’m glad I can help you.”
“Sister Fang, I knew you were in a bad mood when you came today. If doing this can make you feel a little better, then I’m happy to do so.”
Lu Chen looked at Fang Lanxin with a sincere expression.
Fang Lanxin never expected that Lu Chen could tell that she had something on her mind.
A wave of emotion washed over him, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he said softly, "I am indeed in a bad mood, but it's not because of this matter. However, I'm very happy that you agreed to this, Lu Chen, thank you."
"Sister Fang, it's never your turn to say thank you between us. I'm always the one who should be saying thank you."
"Sister, don't worry, I will always stand by your side!"
When Lu Chen said this, his eyes were wide open, and his eyes were watery and filled with sincerity, as loyal as a guard dog.
When she met those eyes, Fang Lanxin's heart skipped a beat.
She nodded, then added a chicken leg to Lu Chen's plate, and said with a smile, "Eat up, no dieting today!"
"yes!"
Lu Chen immediately agreed and ate the chicken leg in big bites. He saw Fang Lanxin relax and the corners of his mouth turn up slightly. He finally felt that his existence had value to Fang Lanxin.
Now he has found his own value and finally found an excuse to continue living in this world.
Fang Lanxin needs him, and that's his reason for living.
