Chapter 6: Story 6 (1/2)

Translator: Du Yiran

Proofreader: Zhu Yuan

It is the urban TV series revolving around men. But the romance lives of the male and female protagonists are also very important. Otherwise, if the whole TV series is about queer-baiting of men, there will be still low audience ratings.

As the third supporting male role, Bo Yu’s acting part is not much. And there are only 30 episodes in this TV series. So, all his footage has been completed in only more than half a month.

Bo Yu doesn’t appear very frequently now, and the income he receives is not much. After subtracting his gain-sharing with the agency, he can only get 150,000 yuan.

However, it is quite a lot for an ordinary person to get 150,000 yuan in half a month or so.

Bo Yu doesn’t mind that. He elatedly takes little Watermelon with him to have hotpot before the money arrives in his account.

When returning to his office after the meeting, Song Shilin takes a look at the folder on the side after approving urgent documents in need of his signature.

After a moment of silence, Song Shilin picks up the folder and glances at the documents because he has looked through it before.

——Two years ago, Bo Yu came to a remote town and lived a secluded life. When he appeared in front of the public again, he had a bright and tender faced baby.

Nobody has seen the baby’s mother.

But where does the baby come from?

Song Shilin looks at the stack of documents like waste paper in front of him with a clouded face livid like lead.

Locking the documents in the drawer, Song Shilin’s lips compress in a straight line.

Meanwhile in the shooting set, Qi Yan looks at his mobile, feeling tense as if there were someone scratching his heart. He wants to call Song Shilin, but he fears that Song will scold him.

Lily tremblingly stands aside and dares not speak. She has experienced the anger of Qi Yan, so she dares not foolishly get close to him and endures hardships.

After the wrapping of the third supporting male modern role, Bo Yu has to face the difficulty of applying for a job again. After staying at home for a few days, Bo Yu receives a call from his manager, Mr. Zhang.

Pushing open the door of Mr. Zhang’s office, Bo Yu unexpectedly sees two men who should not appear here, two popular male stars.

One is a comely and handsome man named Ye Hang. The other is a telegenic man with refined facial features named Mo Anyu.

When hearing the sound in the doorway, they unconsciously look at the doorway, but find that it is Bo Yu.

Ye Hang shows the whites of his eyes with arrogant attitude and ignores Bo Yu, “My predecessor, this is Zhang Ge’s office, not your home. Can’t you knock on the door before coming in?”

Mr. Zhang frowns, “Bo Yu, we’re still talking. You don’t understand the rules when you break in like this.”

Mo Anyu plays with a knife and ignores them.

Bo Yu is stunned to hear their explicit accusations. He doesn’t get it at the moment.

He is used to entering Mr. Zhang’s office without knocking for many years. But Mr. Zhang has never expressed his dissatisfaction each time before.

Bo Yu glances at the two popular trainees and immediately understands the reason. His lip compresses with somewhat uncomfortable mood.

“You didn’t have that rule before.” Bo Yu calmly walks in and sits on the high-quality custom leather sofa, “But, maybe I didn’t know it before.”

Mr. Zhang suppresses his anger. Can’t Bo Yu know that his position is different from the past? He comes here and makes a show of authority as a superstar. He is doomed to be a fool who doesn’t understand others’ wink!

“My predecessor, don’t you know what upbringing is?” Ye Hang coldly looks at Bo Yu, as if looking at an insignificant speck.

Bo Yu: If a grain of sand is contacted with eyes, one cannot open the eyes. When tens of thousands of dusts accumulate together, the whole imperial capital will be blindfolded.

The trainee is too naive. He feels that Bo Yu is not popular as him now, and he can overwhelm Bo Yu with his popularity. So, his tone becomes more and more furious.

“What? My predecessor is too guilty to speak?” Ye Hang pesters him.

Bo Yu squints.

“I wonder whether your nine-year compulsory education has been completed or not.” Bo Yu says slowly.

Ye Hang asks, “What do you mean?”

Mo Anyu, who sits aside without speaking from beginning to end laughs suddenly, “Idiot.”

Ye Hang’s face suddenly changes. He stands up and stares at Bo Yu, breathing heavily.

Mr. Zhang takes a slightly reproachful look at Bo Yu, and he is interrupted when he wants to mediate a dispute.

“What’s up? Come on, tell me. I’m leaving.” Bo Yu says lightly. Ye Hang’s performing opportunities are really good now, but he is unlikely to ingratiate himself with a trainee.

Mr. Zhang gives Bo Yu a ferocious stare and doesn’t know how to reply. He takes out three scripts of TV series from the drawer, “I’ve written the time of audition on the scripts. Read them carefully when you go back home.”

After that, he no longer pays attention to Bo Yu.

Bo Yu takes the scripts and leaves.

Mo Anyu stands up, claps his hands and laughs, “Zhang Ge, anything else? I must be going now.”

While saying so, he quickly steps out after Bo Yu.

Bo Yu presses the number of the floor on the elevator and sees Mo Anyu run in, smiling politely without intending to talk.

Just now Mo Anyu doesn’t deliberately put on airs, which gives Bo Yu a good impression of him.

Mo Anyu breaks their embarrassment by making a fist by one hand at his lip and coughing gently, “Senior Bo, may I have your signature later? My cousin has been adoring you for a long time, so...”

Bo Yu looks back and feels surprised, and then says gently, “Of course. It’s my pleasure that your cousin likes me.”
