Chapter 696: Chapter 694: Iron Trees Bloom, A Major Event Is Coming!
“I’m back,” Yan Ze opened a space portal.
He Cheng followed him inside, his gaze unintentionally landing on the woman’s ring on his little finger!
The joking expression on his face suddenly turned serious, “What’s the story with that woman?”
Yan Ze, without answering, counter-asked, “How do you make a woman follow you devotedly?”
“Money, there’s no woman that money can’t solve. If it hasn’t been solved, then you’re just not spending enough,” He Cheng chuckled, “or use seduction, you’ve got the looks. Look at those fans who are crazy about you, both men and women.”
Yan Ze glanced at him, “As for seduction, I don’t take advantage of others, she has better options.”
“Oh?” He Cheng was surprised, “Really? Let me take a look.”
Yan Ze showed him a photo of Qing Linghuan.
With just one glance, He Cheng was stunned!
He looked back at He Cheng, patted his shoulder, “Still, use money, we have money!”
Yan Ze replied, “That won’t do. She’ll think that I just want her for my money.”
“So you’re not after her for her looks?” He Cheng asked with a smile.
Yan Ze firmly responded, “No.”
The smile on He Cheng’s face disappeared completely, his gaze becoming solemn.
A person with no desires, suddenly having a desire… a mixed blessing!
******
Yuan Mansion.
Back to being an ordinary person, Sally was suddenly struck by hunger pangs.
She abruptly remembered that she had put a lot of food in the fridge downstairs.
“I really do have foresight!” Sally said through gritted teeth.
Until she got the Space Ring back or Xiaomei updated it, she could only rely on the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in the fridge to nourish her fetus.
Nian Fang, who had stayed at the hotel before Sally, didn’t find her there, and immediately called her.
This person, who had become famous overnight on the internet! The show’s crew’s phones were about to explode, all looking for her.
“Hello? Sister Su, where are you? We’re going to the racetrack to film the show,” Nian Fang’s voice clearly sounded ingratiating.
Unlike before, she had been purely business-like, even a bit dismissive.
Handling what seemed to her an old-fashioned phone, Sally used the speakerphone and said to Nian Fang, “I’m at Yuan Mansion, you have a car, right? Come pick me up.”
“Yes, yes, Sister Su wait for me, I’ll be there in twenty minutes!” Nian Fang hung up and ran out of the hotel with her purse.
Yuan Mansion, she knew the place.
It was said to be Yan Ze’s private residence, never allowing others in. But the paparazzi, who could infiltrate anywhere, still managed to snap photos of men entering Yuan Mansion. They staked out for seven days and nights, only to see that man coming out again. That’s why there were rumors about Yan Ze being gay on the internet.
However, Yan Ze himself did not respond to this at all, neither confirming nor denying it.
Now Sally was at Yuan Mansion, and Nian Fang, after asking the hotel staff, learned that Sally hadn’t returned last night, so it led to even more speculation.
Dressed in pajamas and slippers, Sally stood at the entrance of Yuan Mansion waiting for Nian Fang.
Seeing Nian Fang get out of the car, Sally said, “Fangfang, I lost my wallet, could you lend me some money to buy a set of clothes? I’ll pay you back double later.”
“No need, let’s go buy clothes first.” Although Nian Fang had a backup of various outfits in her car’s trunk for Sally, an opportunity like lending money, which was a great way to do someone a favor, was certainly not to be missed.
Sally bought a pink tracksuit and white sneakers with a cartoon pattern from a roadside clothing store, suited for a teen girl in the bloom of youth.
After getting back into the car, Nian Fang drove towards the racetrack.
On the way, she glanced at Sally several times, wanting to speak but hesitated.
Sally picked up a sealed bottle of purified water from the car and unscrewed the lid to take a sip.
Used to drinking Spiritual Spring Divine Liquid, this ordinary water was hard to swallow, and even the fetus in her belly protested.
In the end, Sally could only rinse her mouth and asked Nian Fang to stop the car so she could spit out the mouthwash.
“Is Fangfang curious about my relationship with Yan Ze?” Sally got back in the car and fastened her seatbelt again.
“That’s Sister Su’s privacy. However, since I am now Sister Su’s assistant, I would appreciate any pointers on matters I should pay attention to,” Nian Fang said.
“Telling you won’t hurt, I am Yan Ze’s creditor!”
‘Screeech—’ The car stopped at the side of the road!
Nian Fang looked at Sally incredulously, “Movie King Yan owes Sister Su money?”
Then she thought of a possibility, and her gaze at Sally became much more complicated…
Sally knew what she was thinking, “It’s not the kind of relationship you’re thinking of, it’s just simply that he owes me.” Her Space Ring! And Xiaomei’s abnormal update status!
Hmph! She would settle accounts with him slowly.
“How is that possible?” Nian Fang restarted the car, but her eyes were full of gossip curiosity.
“But that’s the truth.” Sally looked outside the car window, pondering how to deal with Yan Ze when she saw him!
Nian Fang still found it hard to believe because Yan Ze was the highest-paid male star in the entertainment industry. A movie, starting with nine figures!
“How did Sister Su get to know Movie King Yan?” Nian Fang decided to dig deeper into the gossip.
Sally replied, “Work.”
Nian Fang was astonished, “Sister Su was in the entertainment industry before?”
The beauty like Sally wasn’t the kind to fade into the crowd; her beauty was the kind that one would remember for a lifetime. If she entered the entertainment industry, as long as she showed her face, she would definitely be remembered. Plus, with the current online buzz, she should have been dug out by now, yet there was nothing.
“Other work,” Sally replied.
Nian Fang was curious, “What work? Movie King Yan entered the entertainment industry without even graduating from university, and I haven’t heard of him doing other work.”
“Everyone has multiple facets. What’s shown on the outside is one aspect, while another aspect is hidden deep within. Perhaps in a different place, there’s yet another facet.” Sally clasped her hands behind her head and then smiled, “Fangfang, on the other hand, seems to see right through.”
Nian Fang felt somewhat embarrassed, “I’m… I’m new to the industry.”
“The entertainment industry isn’t much different from other sectors. Without capital, work more, talk less, listen more, don’t offend anybody, and don’t underestimate anyone. You never know which little actor or singer you look down on might get lucky and make it big.”
Nian Fang nodded, “Yes, like Sister Su, who is now getting a lot of attention online; the news about Sister Su has even reached the entertainment charts.”
“All that is because they’re after Yan Ze. If he hadn’t deliberately approached me, these people wouldn’t have noticed me at all. It’s not about being attractive; there are plenty of attractive people out there. For example, Fangfang, you’re also very pretty,” Sally winked.
Even though Nian Fang knew that a beautiful woman was sweet-talking her, she couldn’t help feeling happy from being praised, “No, I think I’m quite plain.”
“Not at all, inner beauty shines through the eyes,” Sally smiled.
The two chatted all the way, especially about their school days, filled with both tears and laughter.
Before they realized it, they had arrived at the horse club—Qianli Jun.
Sally got out of the car.
There was a red carpet laid out on the ground.
Nian Fang handed the car keys to the valet, shouldered her bag, and walked down the red carpet with Sally, checking her phone, “It seems we’re a few minutes late.”
“It must have been the clothes shopping that delayed us,” Sally replied.
There was the sound of a car stopping behind them.
Sally turned around and her expression immediately darkened, seeing the all-black RV she said to Nian Fang, “You go ahead.”
“Sister Su?” Nian Fang was puzzled at first, but after seeing the black vehicle, she understood… That was Movie King Yan’s car!
Yan Ze and He Cheng stepped out of the car.
Seeing Sally waiting on the red carpet, He Cheng stopped in his tracks and teased Yan Ze with a mischievous smile, “Look at that furious face! You didn’t satisfy her last night, huh? Is it because you’re incompetent there?”
Yan Ze’s eyes turned icy as he glanced at him, caressing the woman’s ring on his little finger, “You don’t have to talk, doesn’t mean you’re mute. But say the wrong thing, and you definitely will become mute!”
He Cheng was stunned: “…”
Indeed, when the iron tree blooms, something big is bound to happen!
