Shen Zhe quickly flipped through the pages of information in his hand, and finally he looked up and gave the young man a deep look.
Perhaps his gaze was too sharp, attracting the boy's attention. The boy looked up as if startled, and after a brief eye contact, the boy turned his head away first.
Those eyes seemed to be able to speak, full of temptation and uneasiness. I cautiously sought comfort here, but was scared away by his eyes.
Somehow, Shen Zhe suddenly felt a little distressed. Then he was amused by his own thoughts. How could it be possible?
But his eyes softened a lot, and he said to the young man on the sofa seriously, "Qi Chen, with your qualifications, you can't meet the threshold to enter Jingnian."
The boy's expression darkened, and he heard the male voice pause, and then said,
"But Jason can give you a chance for Grant's sake. The time won't be long. You'll be a trainee for three months. During the three months, in addition to basic contacts, you can shoot Grant's cover. Salary is negotiable. If possible, your father will need to give a written certificate to agree that you will sign a contract with Jason."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Zhe saw that the originally dejected boy's eyes lit up, his lips slightly opened, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he closed his mouth again.
He looked at the boy's tender lips, stretched out a hand unnaturally to loosen a button on his shirt collar, and his breathing seemed to become a little smoother.
"If you have any request, you can ask me and I will consider it."
Shen Zhe didn’t realize that he had turned the boy’s affairs into something that he handled personally, whereas in the past these minor matters were handled by the person in charge.
Wei Xicheng looked at the man's hands on the table. His hands had distinct joints and were the color of jade. He gave a thumbs up to Boss Shen's hands in his heart. He lowered his eyelids, and his eyelashes, like small brushes, cast a small shadow on his face.
"No."
Grant was waiting for the final result, feeling anxious. "Qi, where is your father? Why hasn't he come yet?"
Shen Zhe looked at the boy and remembered the description in the information: he was timid by nature, timid in behavior, sensitive and silent.
"Your father's contact information." Shen Zhe took the assistant's phone and prepared to dial, "I'll talk to him."
The boy uttered a string of numbers gently, Shen Zhe dialed it, and then pressed the hands-free button.
When he pressed the hands-free button, he saw the boy's lips move, but he still didn't say what he really wanted to say.
After the call was connected, the first sounds that came were men shouting and women teasing, as well as collisions and some strange noises. It sounded very chaotic.
Shen Zhe's face changed, and Grant's expression also became very complicated. They were all adults, so they would naturally understand these things.
The only child bit his lip, lowered his head and said nothing.
"Who the hell is calling me at this time? I'm busy! Talk to you later!" The person on the other end said this and wanted to hang up.
"Mr. Qi, I am the head of Jingnian Entertainment Film and Television Company. If I want to sign Qi Chen, I need your consent to allow Qi Chen to participate in all programs under camera." Shen Zhe spoke naturally and steadily, and finished these words before Qi's father hung up.
There was silence for two seconds. "Jinian?"
"Yes."
"I'll be right there." There was a rustling sound from the other end of the line, and a woman's plea to stay, "Fuck, get out of the way, don't ruin my good thing."
Shen Zhe hung up the phone expressionlessly.
Quiet.
Grant, who was always talkative, could see that Shen Zhe was in a very bad mood. He didn't dare to say anything more. Shen Zhe's assistant would naturally pretend to be dumb. The remaining boy didn't like to talk anyway, so he wouldn't take the initiative to talk.
The atmosphere became a little subtle, and I don't know how much time had passed.
"You keep your head down. Doesn't your neck hurt? Lift your head."
Wei Xicheng raised his head and saw that there was actually a hint of smile in Chen Zhe's ebony pupils.
He rubbed his eyes and was about to take a closer look when a voice of "Qi Chen!" interrupted his thoughts. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a light blue suit walking towards them.
He stood up, and when the man came to him, he lowered his head and whispered, "Dad."
Although Qi's father has been indulging in sensual pleasures for many years, one can still vaguely see the shadow of his youth. Although his steps are unsteady and there are some dark circles under his eyes, he looks very young. In addition, the light blue suit makes him look frivolous and dissolute.
Qi Chen's temperament is ethereal and ethereal, like an elf who is not of this world, while the man in front of him seems to live at the bottom of society. The difference in temperament makes it impossible to connect the two together.
Father Qi had a smile on his face and reached out to touch the boy's hair. Before he could say "good boy", the boy turned his head away to avoid his hand.
His face froze, and he was about to scold this ignorant kid when he saw a handsome and elegant man nodding to him.
Father Qi has been paying attention to entertainment information for many years, so he naturally knew that the person in front of him was the famous actor Shen. He hurriedly bowed and said, "Hello, Mr. Shen."
"Qi Chen fits the image of our company's current filming plan very well, so I want to let Qi Chen join the company as a trainee for three months, and decide whether he has the ability to officially join the company based on his performance during these three months."
Father Qi kept nodding his head. "I have no objection. I'll do whatever you say. Qi Chen is a disobedient kid sometimes. I'd love for you to find someone to take care of him. It's just the money issue..."
Shen Zhe waved his hand and took a contract from the assistant, "We will not treat Qi Chen unfairly. Although Qi Chen's previous resources and image were not very good, we will still pay Qi Chen for the filming according to normal procedures. As for the trainee period, the company will provide food and accommodation, and will not provide additional compensation."
Qi's father's expression changed, "No money for three months?"
Shen Zhe nodded.
Father Qi thought about the benefits that would come later, gritted his teeth, and said, "Okay."
Since both parties had no objection to the contract, it was signed quickly.
Father Qi put away the pen, rolled his eyes, and said to Shen Zhe, "If there is any big boss with good resources, you must introduce them to our Qi Chen. Our Qi Chen can do any dirty or tiring work."
Shen Zhe's face, which always had a smile on it even when he was angry, turned completely cold now.
"Mr. Qi, since the contract has been signed, please take care."
Father Qi winked at Qi Chen, hinting that he should do as he had taught him before. This was a big company, and the people who could do business with it were all wealthy sponsors.
The child stood there, pinching the corner of his clothes, biting his lips, looking frail and pitiful.
Shen Zhe felt his temples throbbing. How could there be such a father who would personally push his own child into the fire pit, and such a beautiful child at that?
Grant didn't understand the twists and turns involved. When he particularly disliked someone, he would just follow his heart. He gently pulled the boy behind him, then quickly let go of his hand, fearing that the boy's eyes would turn red again because of this.
Grant's tall figure stood between Qi's father and the young man. Although he couldn't completely block their sight, it seemed as if he had built a safe wall for the young man.
Shen Zhe watched the young man staring blankly at the man's broad back. He pressed his brows and never felt that Grant was so annoying. "Assistant Li, take Mr. Qi to get a taxi."
After sending Qi's father away, Shen Zhe saw that the young man behind Grant was obviously relieved and his body was no longer tense.
"Grant, An Ran will be here in ten minutes."
"What?! Shen! You know I don't like her." Grant stood up hurriedly and was about to leave. He turned back and ruffled Wei Xicheng's hair, "I look forward to our cooperation."
Shen Zhe looked at Grant's hurried back and walked to Wei Xicheng's side, "Come with me."
Wei Xicheng was just wondering, "How could Boss Shen be so free?" Before he could come to his senses, he felt a hand on his head, and then it was quickly pulled away.
The original body was sixteen years old and about 1.78 meters tall, but in front of Shen Zhe, this height was not enough. With the original body's personality, he would never look up to see the expression of Boss Shen to guess what he was thinking. Wei Xicheng had no choice but to endure this blow obediently, and then secretly distanced himself from Shen Zhe.
Wei Xicheng, who was unable to raise his head, naturally would not see the deep look in Shen Zhe's eyes as he looked at him.
Chen Zhe took a step forward and walked in front, twisting his index finger. The soft touch just now still lingered on his fingertips, but an electric current that could not be ignored was transmitted through his fingers, making his whole body numb. He almost sighed, and wanted to touch it again to experience it.
Wei Xicheng said nothing, but followed the man obediently with his head down, like a little follower.
"Mr. Shen."
The soft voice coming from behind made Shen Zhe pause. He stopped and turned to look at Little Quail. If he remembered correctly, this was the first time the child took the initiative to speak and call someone since they met.
"What's the matter?" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but soften his voice, but the aftereffects of the static electricity just now were too great, making his originally clear voice become a little hoarse, and the pronunciation of each word was entangled together, just like the laziness when he just got up.
Shen Zhe frowned, and before he could think about it, he saw the little quail in front of him raise his head and blush, pursing his lips again and again, and only uttered one sentence, "Thank you."
"Thank me for what?"
Of course I want to thank you for picking me up and providing me with food.
Wei Xicheng pinched the corner of his clothes, looking quite at a loss. He didn't dare to look at Chen Zhe again, and lowered his head to stare at his toes again.
“I, I…”
After waiting for a long time without being able to figure out what came after the word "I", Shen Zhe thought that the little quail might need some time to learn to speak. As for what he said, he almost understood it.
"Are you hungry? Follow me."
"Um……"
The tall man walked in front, but his steps were very slow. The slightly thin boy followed closely behind him, and from time to time he looked up at the back of the man in front of him.
The author has something to say: Actor Shen: Can you flirt? Show me.
Stupid author:???
Emperor Shen: Get out, next one.
