Chapter 31 I'm doomed, the person I like is going to hate me.
"What the hell?"
Suger's voice changed several times in fright at those words.
Others may not know, but he does.
Her own artist has a husband!
And it was his direct superior.
Sending Chao Xian to Lian Zong, does that mean he feels he's in the company's way? Does he want to kick him out?
Suger was utterly shocked.
Chao Xian frowned slightly upon hearing Lian Zong's words.
Considering that only Xuan Qing went upstairs just now, could this dating reality show be a collaboration with Xuan Qing?
But why was he specifically chosen to go up?
Xuan Qing said in the elevator that she wouldn't break them up, so what was the point of the variety show?
The assistant didn't know what happened after that; after delivering the message, the assistant went to attend to other matters.
Su Ge and Chao Xian entered the elevator and pressed the button for the 21st floor. Su Ge's expression was not good.
Chao Xian, however, had the leisure to comfort Su Ge, saying, "If it's not suitable, Su Ge, you can just refuse."
It's not just inappropriate, it's utterly inappropriate!
Let's not even talk about the fact that Chao Xian's marriage partner is President Mu.
Chao Xian is only 22 years old now, and going on dating reality shows will do him no good.
Have the company's top management gone mad?
Socrates couldn't help but think this way.
He felt slightly irritable.
The elevator doors opened, and Su Ge strode into the conference room with an imposing air.
Both the top leadership and Xuan Qing were present.
Su Ge's idea was correct; it was indeed the resources that Xuan Qing brought.
He even specifically asked Chao Xian to go to Lian Zong.
Is it because they're afraid he'll get tired of living?
"Um, Su Ge, this is President Xuan. President Xuan said he wants Chao Xian to participate in a dating reality show..." The head executive hadn't even finished speaking.
Su Ge immediately retorted, "A dating reality show? Our Chao Xian is only 22 years old. What kind of dating reality show is he going to participate in? Outsiders may not know, but you all know Chao Xian's background. If you dare to let him participate in a dating reality show, doesn't the company want him anymore?"
Su Ge looked at Xuan Qing with an unusual expression. He had sensed something was off about the kid yesterday.
As a result, this kid played a trick on him today.
Suger felt an itch in his teeth.
"President Xuan, there's no room for discussion about dating reality shows. And please don't bother our artists anymore." Su Ge felt that Chao Xian was being too nice to her.
That's why Xuan Qing went further and further.
If I bring Chao Xian to a dating reality show today, I'll probably get blacklisted by Mu Yunzhou tomorrow.
I haven't earned enough money yet!
Chao Xian calmly sat down in a seat to the side, and his assistant quickly brought him tea.
Chao Xian merely glanced at it without saying a word.
The higher-ups noticed that Su Ge's knuckles tapping the table felt like they were tapping themselves.
Not to mention that the company, as Suger mentioned, no longer wanted it.
The higher-ups felt wronged!
Of course we need it!
"That's right, he's just a guest observer on a dating reality show, only making an appearance. We even declined President Xuan's offer when we heard about the dating reality show!"
The higher-ups quickly distanced themselves from the matter.
Seeing that Su Ge's expression softened somewhat, Chao Xian finally spoke up: "Brother Su, please sit down and listen to what they have to say."
Xuan Qing smiled, looking utterly innocent.
"That's right. The first two seasons of the show 'Love Standoff' were huge hits, but the third season had too few hot topics, so we wanted to find a guest star to join. I think Asahi is very suitable."
As Xuan Qing spoke, he kept his gaze fixed on Chao Xian.
Just based on Chao Xian's face alone, this show already has a potential to be a hit.
Moreover, Xuan Qing's ideas go beyond just this.
Since its premiere, the show "Love Standoff" has been full of highlights in every episode. Many celebrities want to be on the show, since they can go to the observation room and become an observer even without dating, which brings countless viewers.
Chao Xian, who was standing nearby, understood what was going on.
Therefore, Jian Huai wanted Zhao Ling to become an observer guest on "Love Standoff".
Unexpectedly, Xuan Qing brought a collaboration to Chao Xian's company and specifically asked Chao Xian to come.
Xuan Qing stood up and sat down next to Chao Xian. Looking at Chao Xian's profile, she smiled and said, "Chao Chao, don't worry, it won't conflict with your filming schedule!"
Su Ge glanced at the somewhat guilty-looking senior executives beside him. They hadn't expected Xuan Qing to be so bold as to sit down next to Chao Xian.
The higher-ups all know Chao Xian's identity.
The Xuan family is someone they cannot afford to offend.
"Brother Su, what do you think?" Chao Xian didn't answer Xuan Qing's question, but instead asked Su Ge.
Upon hearing this, Su Ge knew that Chao Xian was waiting for his answer; if he felt it was unacceptable, Chao Xian would not accept it.
Since she has chosen to trust Suge, Chao Xian will entrust Suge with full authority.
The interests of agents and celebrities are inherently intertwined.
"We can accept the job, but if there are any problems, we will leave immediately, and there can be no conflict with joining our team."
If it's an observer, then that's acceptable.
Su Ge glanced at Chao Xian, signaling him to relax.
Xuan Qing was still chattering away, making promises to Chao Xian, saying that he would definitely keep his word and would never let Chao Xian suffer any injustice.
Su Ge stepped forward and pulled Xuan Qing's chair over.
He found himself stuck between the two.
Su Ge looked at Xuan Qing with a forced smile: "Young Master Xuan, please hand over the specific details to me. Chao Xian still has classes to attend."
Chao Xian understood Su Ge's meaning, nodded to everyone, and then left the conference room.
Xuan Qing wanted to follow, but Su Ge's attitude was firm, so he dared not let Xuan Qing continue to follow Chao Xian.
After Xuan Qing and Su Ge signed the contract, Su Ge thought that Xuan Qing would leave City A soon, but he did not expect that Xuan Qing would follow Chao Xian all the way.
Su Ge wanted to tell Mu Yunzhou about this, but he was afraid that Mu Yunzhou might...
well.
Caught in a dilemma.
All they could do was keep stopping Xuan Qing.
Su Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief just before he was about to join the crew.
In a closed-off film crew setting, Su Ge didn't believe Xuan Qing could keep up.
"Boo-hoo." Mu Ziyan handed the car key in his hand to Chao Xian.
Chao Xian subconsciously took it, somewhat curious about what it was.
The auntie, who had already completed her trial period, explained with a smile: "This is the nanny van that the young master picked out for you yesterday because he knew you would be joining the crew tomorrow."
My aunt accompanied me when I went to choose it.
The auntie never expected that Mu Ziyan would pay for the car worth millions so readily.
"A gift for joining the group," Mu Ziyan explained simply.
Chao Xian was surprised to receive a gift from Mu Ziyan just for joining the crew, and she was quite happy.
Before transmigrating into the book, Chao Xian always gave things to others when she joined the group.
I never expected to receive gifts again; things are finally getting better.
Chao Xian smiled at Mu Ziyan and said thank you.
“I asked Dad to find you a driver, so it will be convenient for you to go anywhere, and you won’t need to find someone else.”
Chao Xian hadn't expected Mu Ziyan to be so thoughtful.
He couldn't help but reach out and pinch Mu Ziyan's cheek.
"Stop pinching, your face is going to rot."
Mu Ziyan held her face in her hands, looking pitiful.
"Remember to contact me if anything happens." Chao Xian waved his phone, and Mu Ziyan nodded quickly.
Then, glancing around to make sure his aunt wasn't listening, he leaned close to Chao Xian and whispered, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Dad."
Chao Xian looked at his thieving manner and helplessly touched his forehead.
What Mu Yunzhou does has nothing to do with him.
However, Chao Xian didn't say it out loud. Forget it, why bother arguing with a child?
Chao Xian carefully gave a few instructions, and the aunt came over to ask Chao Xian which clothes she needed to take with her so that she could pack her clothes.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian gently shook his head: "No need, I'll take care of it myself later."
The aunt nodded quickly, and after cleaning up, seeing that Chao Xian had nothing else to do, she went back to her room.
She would only come out when Chao Xian needed to call her.
The next day, Chao Xian got up very early.
A person left the room with a suitcase, without intending to wake anyone.
Chao Xian was used to going to the film set alone from home.
But when he went downstairs, he saw Mu Yunzhou sitting on the sofa.
Chao Xian blinked, noticing that Mu Yunzhou had also gotten up exceptionally early today.
Chao Xian, pulling his suitcase, looked somewhat lost. He glanced at Mu Yunzhou and thought for a while before softly saying, "Mr. Mu, I'll head to the film set now."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunzhou put away his tablet, stood up, and looked at Chao Xian: "We'll take you there."
Before Chao Xian could react, he saw Mu Ziyan rushing out of the kitchen.
Holding a packaged breakfast in my hand.
"This is breakfast, to eat on the go. This is soy milk, unsweetened."
Mu Ziyan was followed by her aunt.
Chao Xian nodded to his aunt.
She glanced again at the excited Mu Ziyan.
This was an experience he had never had before.
Someone sent me to work on a film set.
Usually, only the agent and assistant are present.
But now he has more than just his agent by his side.
The new nanny van was parked at the door, and Suger looked on with undisguised surprise as she got out of it.
Unexpectedly, this nanny van is better than the one provided by the company, at least better than the one the company wanted to give to Chaoxian.
When Mu Ziyan got into the car and saw Su Ge, she pulled Su Ge aside.
Chao Xian looked over and saw Mu Ziyan occasionally tapping the watch on his wrist, as if the two were making some kind of deal.
Mu Yunzhou sat down next to Chao Xian and glanced at Chao Xian's suitcase.
We're going to be gone for more than two months, is this small suitcase enough to hold everything?
In Mu Yunzhou's eyes, how could someone as refined as Chao Xian carry so little?
"If you need anything, just let me know and I'll bring it to you," Mu Yunzhou said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian shook his head: "No need, we can just go and buy whatever we need."
After all, Chao Xian wasn't going to some remote mountain forest.
At least we're in the city. If we really need something, either I or Suger can buy it.
Where would Mu Yunzhou need to make a trip?
Mu Yunzhou is usually very busy, so if he were to make a special trip just for himself, he would lose a lot of his rest time.
"Get some rest earlier," Chao Xian said.
It can be considered as showing concern.
Mu Yunzhou said "okay".
Su Ge and Mu Ziyan seemed to have reached an agreement, and Mu Ziyan excitedly sat down next to Chao Xian: "Babo, if there's anything you want to eat or drink, just tell me, and I'll order takeout for you!"
Chao Xian hummed in agreement.
Mu Ziyan said a lot more, mostly telling Chao Xian to be careful while he was out alone, to make sure to close the doors and windows at night, and to be wary of bad people.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian felt as if Mu Ziyan was treating him like a child.
But Mu Ziyan is clearly younger.
"Alright, alright, I know, I'm going to start eating breakfast now." Chao Xian quickly interrupted the conversation.
Mu Ziyan quieted down and sat down next to Chao Xian, watching him eat breakfast without moving.
The car ride was very smooth; Chao Xian barely felt any bumps as they arrived at the film set.
Su Ge handed Chao Xian a mask and watched him put it on before getting out of the car. From a distance, he saw a staff member walking towards them, holding a work badge in his hand.
"Is this Teacher Chao? These are your and your team's employee badges. Is this your van? If it is, we need to register the license plate number so it's convenient for you to enter and exit the film set."
The staff member dutifully handed his employee ID to Suger, then glanced at the expensive nanny van next to him with envy.
Chao Xian isn't a well-known name in the industry, but the company seems to really value him, otherwise why would they provide such an expensive nanny van?
"By the way, the hotel is the one next door. You can check in first, and we'll have the script reading in the hotel's conference room this afternoon."
"Thank you, thank you for your trouble." Chao Xian said softly, and then he and Su Ge returned to the car.
Suger told the driver the directions and planned to check into the hotel first.
As for Mu Yunzhou and Mu Ziyan...
"Please trouble the driver to take you back later."
Chao Xian said with a hint of helplessness.
Mu Yunzhou shook his head: "No need, my assistant is driving behind us."
Mu Yunzhou had already arranged everything.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian felt that Mu Yunzhou really didn't mind the trouble at all.
However, he didn't say anything. At the hotel entrance, he watched Mu Yunzhou and Mu Ziyan get into the car and told them to be careful on the road.
Under Mu Ziyan's reluctant gaze.
Chao Xian watched them disappear from his sight.
From childhood to adulthood, whether it's going to school or going to work, it's no wonder that everyone I know wants to be picked up and dropped off.
It turns out, it was just because she wanted others to remember her.
This feeling of being cared for.
This was something that Chao Xian, an orphan, had never experienced before.
"It's okay, I'll be able to go home soon after filming wraps up."
Su Ge seemed to notice Chao Xian's disappointment and wanted to comfort him.
Chao Xian smiled, as if nothing had happened.
"I'm fine, let's go."
When Chao Xian first appeared in the crew, no one really understood why he was chosen for the role.
Even the male protagonist doesn't understand.
Some even felt that Chao Xian lacked star power and only had a pretty face, and they didn't know if he could pull off the role of a villain.
But you can go further in.
Chao Xian is becoming increasingly comfortable on set, and her acting skills are often quite impressive.
You wouldn't guess he's a newcomer at all.
Suger gradually relaxed after initially feeling nervous.
She bought afternoon tea for the film crew, ordered milk tea for the film crew, and did everything she could to help Chao Xian.
In addition to Chao Xian's excellent acting skills, his reputation among the crew has also been greatly improved.
In addition, although he was Su Ge's artist, Chao Xian was completely down-to-earth.
Chao Xian answered all those who sincerely asked about acting skills.
There was absolutely no arrogance.
This surprised even the director.
"It seems that Su Ge has really found a good talent this time. How many Best Actor and Best Actress actors does Su Ge have under his wing? Tsk, Su Ge's eye for talent is really good."
The director sat to the side, watching Chao Xian sitting on a small stool opposite him, giving instructions to another child actor.
A hint of admiration couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
Such a talented and humble actor.
There aren't many like that in the circle.
However, he's only just entered this circle and doesn't know how treacherous people can be. I'm afraid that after a while, Chao Xian won't be so kind anymore.
The director sighed as he thought about this.
"I have to say, Chao Xian is good-looking and has good acting skills. He's still in Su Ge's hands, so I'm afraid there will be many production teams asking him to act in their films and TV shows in the future. We'd better get to know him first," the screenwriter whispered to the director.
The director naturally understood that he now had a debt of gratitude to Chao Xian, and that he also had some connection with Chao Xian's teacher.
As long as there are no conflicts between me and Chao Xian in the future, it will be easier to ask Chao Xian to act in my films.
Thinking of this, the director looked at Chao Xian with even greater certainty that he was a treasure.
But the good times lasted only two days.
When Chao Xian and Su Ge arrived at the film set in the afternoon, they didn't see a single person.
The start time announced in the group chat was 1:30 PM.
Su Ge glanced at the empty film crew.
I have some doubts.
After waiting for a while, someone finally came in.
Su Ge quickly went up to ask, "Hey, wasn't it supposed to start filming at 1:30? Where are the director and the others?"
The two people who had been stopped were initially a little annoyed, but when they saw it was Su Ge, they asked in confusion, "Weren't Teacher Chao's people distributing afternoon tea outside?"
Chao Xian, who was standing nearby, was completely stunned when he heard this.
Work is about to start, so there's no way I'll be buying afternoon tea.
Socrates wouldn't either.
After all, distributing afternoon tea now would disrupt the director's schedule. At most, afternoon tea would be bought and distributed to everyone during breaks after a scene.
"Wasn't it bought by Teacher Chao? But that person was talking about Teacher Chao!"
The two were somewhat confused.
Socrates asked where it was.
Then he went there with Chao Xian.
Before he could even see anyone, Chao Xian had already heard the voice.
"I've come to see Teacher Chao, and I hope everyone will take good care of him." It was Xuan Qing.
Upon hearing this voice, Chao Xian's eyes were filled with doubt.
Su Ge, standing beside him, frowned even more.
Meanwhile, the director stared blankly at the small truck delivering afternoon tea.
The screenwriter frowned as he watched the crew members go to get their afternoon tea. He couldn't help but feel anxious as time ticked by and it was almost 1:30 when filming was supposed to start.
But so many people still haven't received their afternoon tea.
I don't know if we'll be able to start work on time at 1:30.
Chao Xian's heart sank.
He glanced at Su Ge beside him and said a few words softly.
Su Ge then went to ask the staff how Xuan Qing got in.
Xuan Qing has really brought him a lot of trouble this time.
Chao Xian already had a good reputation, but after this afternoon tea delivery, things might change.
If the start date is delayed, then the end date will also be delayed.
Right now, people might not feel anything.
But when evening came, complaints began to emerge.
Xuan Qing is a person who does whatever he wants because of his background.
Although it was well-intentioned, it ended up doing something bad.
Su Ge returned and brought the news to Chao Xian, saying that Xuan Qing had entered the country using the Xuan family's name.
Chao Xian felt a headache coming on.
Chao Xian walked up to the director first and apologized softly, "I'm sorry, director, I didn't expect someone to sneak into the crew."
Hearing Chao Xian's voice, the director turned around and glanced at him: "He said he's bringing you afternoon tea. Do you know him?"
"I know him. I didn't expect him to come to the film crew. I will handle this matter. I'm really sorry, Director."
Chao Xian showed remorse and didn't say anything else.
Upon hearing this, the director hummed in agreement, glanced at Chao Xian, and spoke with a hint of advice in his tone.
"You know how expensive the film crew's location and props are every day. Chao Xian, you're a great actor. Don't let certain people tarnish your reputation."
Chao Xian nodded quickly, indicating that he understood and would resolve the matter as soon as possible.
After Xuanqing finished serving afternoon tea, he listened to the staff around him expressing their gratitude.
Just as Xuan Qing was about to say a few more words.
Su Ge grabbed him and pulled him down.
"Young Master Xuan, what exactly do you want to do?" Su Ge asked Xuan Qing, barely containing his anger.
He couldn't understand what Xuan Qing was after.
Chao Xian had already made it clear to him that she had a husband.
But this person was like an unkillable cockroach, becoming more and more persistent in his pursuit of Chao Xian.
Suger felt he had made a mistake from the very beginning.
Such a person should be told to Mu Yunzhou so that Mu Yunzhou can deal with him.
Instead of keeping it a secret, things have turned out this way, and Xuan Qing has even been allowed into the film crew.
I don't know whether to say Xuan Qing has many connections or that her artists are charming.
"I just came to deliver afternoon tea. Just tell Chaoxian that I was here..." Xuanqing didn't understand Suge's dissatisfaction. Instead, she thought that Chaoxian knew what she had done, and she couldn't hide her joy.
"Tell me your ass!" Su Ge felt that his career was about to be ruined by Xuan Qing.
Suger, who was usually expressionless, was truly speechless this time.
"Do you even know that 1:30 is the director's official start time? Look at what time it is now! You're still using the excuse of being a leisurely person."
Su Ge placed the phone directly in front of Xuan Qing.
The approaching two o'clock time made Xuan Qing's heart skip a beat.
Xuan Qing, who had been smiling, suddenly stopped.
Oh no, I've gotten myself into trouble.
"Young Master Xuan, I will tell President Mu the truth about what happened today." Su Ge took a deep breath, took a step back, picked up his phone, and couldn't help but smile.
His smile was a little creepy.
Xuan Qing felt a chill run down her spine, and still wanted to explain.
But all they could see was Sug's departing figure.
Xuan Qing hurriedly took out her phone and dialed her brother's number, as if she had found her pillar of support, anxiously waiting for the other end to answer.
The moment the call connected, Xuan Qing's tone was anxious and her voice sounded aggrieved:
"Bro, I'm doomed! The person I like is going to hate me!"
