Chapter 331: Who Said I’m Going to Refuse?

Chapter 331: Chapter 331: Who Said I’m Going to Refuse?

She looked at Bo Yan, who was speaking so seriously, with horror, almost believing that such lewd words were an auditory hallucination.

"Qi ge, you..."

Bo Yan smiled, finding her panicked expression amusing, "Baby, are you thinking of going back on your word?"

Yuran had initially thought about playing dumb and vehemently denying that she ever agreed to such a thing, but she felt guilty about it, after all. She didn’t want to refuse.

It wasn’t disgust she felt, just a bit bashful, because...

She settled back down and laid on Bo Yan’s legs, her voice low, but Bo Yan heard every word, "Who said I was going to refuse? A promise made is a promise kept.

I’m just shy, okay?"

"Pfft..." He chuckled helplessly. Yuran, feeling somewhat resolved in her heart, didn’t find the matter as terrifying, and thus, she drifted back to sleep in a daze.

...

The next day, Yuran was woken up by the persistent ringing of her phone. She lazily pushed at Bo Yan, who was holding her, "You’re so annoying with all these calls."

Bo Yan glanced at his own quiet phone, then at Yuran’s endlessly ringing one, stayed silent, pulled her hand back under the thin blanket, and reached out to answer the call.

"Hello..."

His voice was hoarse from just waking up, giving Qi Younian the impulse to hang up right then, but he resisted, "Emperor of Film, is Yuran not around?"

"She’s still sleeping. You can tell me anything you would tell her. It’s all the same."

Qi Younian had initially wanted to say he’d call back later, but he didn’t expect his escape route to be blocked so promptly. Speechless, he pursed his lips, figuring it would probably be the same talking to the Emperor of Film.

"Emperor of Film, please remind Yuran when she wakes up that ’Empress of a Generation’ will be launched tomorrow. After such a long revision and reworking period, it’s finally going official.

The whole network is pushing it, and also throwing some shade at Lu Xiao from our studio. If she has no suggestions, I’ll proceed with my plan."

"Alright." Bo Yan narrowed his eyes, as if deep in thought, "I’ll keep it in mind and tell her when she wakes up. Hanging up now."

...

Ran Studio.

Staring at the disconnected call, Qi Younian was momentarily lost in thought. He wasn’t particularly fearful of Bo Yan, but something felt off. Kang Zhenyu sat in his office and, noticing his distraction, hurriedly spoke up as a reminder, "President Qi, what’s Yuran’s opinion? Your call was just answered by the Emperor of Film, so..."

Kang Zhenyu wasn’t usually so nosy, but since he overheard without intending to and Qi Younian hadn’t been careful, Kang became a bit curious.

Qi Younian slapped his forehead, "I should have briefed you earlier since you also handle PR for the company.

Yuran and the Emperor of Film are married; it’s a recent thing."

Kang Zhenyu felt like he was struck by lightning: "..."

That surely was a huge piece of gossip.

He shivered, regaining his voice, "When did this happen?"

"About three or four months ago. Just letting you know, so you don’t panic if any explosive news comes out. Of course, I’m sure Diyang would love to take care of the Emperor of Film’s affairs."

Kang Zhenyu: "..."

He had never expected his boss Yuran was actually the wife of the Emperor of Film.

This...

Seeing his face changing colors, Qi Younian couldn’t help but laugh. "Just don’t mention this to the other employees for now. Wait until Yuran makes the announcement. She won’t hide it for too long."

"Don’t worry, Boss Qi, I know."

As Kang Zhenyu left the office, he seemed to be unable to snap out of his daze and bumped right into Lu Xiao, "Bro Kang, what’s going on with you?"

Lu Xiao had never seen Kang Zhenyu so out of it and asked in surprise.

Kang Zhenyu stopped short of speaking, actually intending to look for Lu Xiao, and here he was. "You’re joining the variety show crew tomorrow, how do you feel about it?"

The variety show "Show You the World" was a hit online for two main reasons: first, because of Han Shanshan’s bet agreement with RSM, which had both onlookers and some investors in the industry watching closely.

Secondly, it had been five years since Han Shanshan’s last big hit, and everyone had been saying that he’d run out of inspiration, merely resting on his laurels. They thought "Show You the World" might just be all hype.

Everyone had their own opinions, but with Lu Xiao’s innate popularity, whether it was the drama of him breaking his contract with his former agency, or the promising future after leaving like a carp transforming into a dragon, people relished discussing him.

Actually, as Lu Xiao’s agent, Kang Zhenyu should accompany him to the recording of the first episode of the variety show, but he was simply too busy, so Lu Xiao planned to go with his assistant.

This was precisely why he had come: to report to the company.

After leaving his former agency, Lu Xiao had his entire financial dealings tied up with the studio. With the connections of Qi Younian and Kang Zhenyu, he was busy like a spinning top.

But this hectic pace of work was something Lu Xiao adapted to and cherished.

He hoped he could become what Yuran had mentioned, someone who could earn money for the company, worthy of Yuran’s affirmation.

Seeing that Kang Zhenyu was still concerned about the matter, Lu Xiao reassured him with a smile, "Bro Kang, it’s fine, I can handle it myself. Isn’t the company very busy? Aren’t you all working on setting up the recording studio? I heard that Boss Yuran and Boss Qi are planning to buy the office area downstairs too?"

Kang Zhenyu nodded, "There is such a plan. The current office area is quite large, but it’s not enough for setting up the recording studio and other uses."

Lu Xiao frowned with a hint of worry, "The property prices around here are so expensive. How much would it cost for the whole floor?"

"You don’t need to worry about that, just focus on doing your job well."

Lu Xiao frowned, "Bro Kang, before I leave, I want to help if I can. I’ve got some savings now. It might not be a lot, but it should be of some help."

Kang Zhenyu turned to him with amusement, "This is the CBD center, office spaces start at eighty thousand. Our building is ninety thousand per square meter, and the area downstairs is at least two thousand square meters. So, you do the math—how much money would that be?"

Lu Xiao gasped in shock, "This..."

Kang Zhenyu patted his shoulder, "No worries, we’ve already thought of a solution. Boss Yuran said she’ll take care of it."

What Kang Zhenyu really wanted to say was that Boss Yuran wasn’t short on money; her husband could afford to buy our entire building. But he didn’t say this. Lu Xiao didn’t ask further, only emphasizing, "If there’s a need, just let me know."

...

When Yuran woke up, it was already 11:30 in the afternoon. Bo Yan had gone to the film city, leaving a note in her sight the moment she opened her eyes.

Seeing the news that "Empress of a Generation" was back online, she didn’t feel much, only thinking what Yinran Entertainment was planning to play this time.

Interesting.

After washing up, she immediately gave Qi Younian a call.
