When Lu Yanzhou saw Xie Chengze, he immediately smiled, his eyebrows curved.
For several years before the end of the last world, Xie Chengze was old and aged.
He still loves Xie Chengze like that, but he can’t help but feel sad. Now that he sees the young and healthy Xie Chengze, he naturally feels happy, and he especially wants to get close to Xie Chengze, such as kissing and hugging him.
However, because he was afraid that Xie Chengze would be unhappy, Lu Yanzhou did not dare to do anything, so he just greet Xie Chengze: “Mr. Xie!”
Xie Chengze looked at Lu Yanzhou and froze in his seat, unable to say a word.
Being able to sense other people’s emotions and how others feel about him has never been a good thing for Xie Chengze.
His parents think that he has been very well-behaved since he was a child. That’s because he can always sense when his parents are disappointed or dissatisfied with him and then find ways to avoid it.
This makes him a particularly well-behaved child in the eyes of his parents, but it also makes him very tired.
This is true even with parents, let alone with other people.
His peers hate him because their parents praise him, friends are jealous of him because of his good grades, and acquaintances covet his looks…
Xie Chengze calls his ability ‘mind reading’.
Just because he has the ability to sense feelings, his life is too real, making it difficult for him to find peace.
He can get some benefits from sensing feelings. For example, when talking to people about investment, he can guess what the other person is thinking through sensing their feeling.
But this benefit was not enough to offset all the harm he suffered.
Such as this moment.
What caught his eye was Lu Yanzhou’s bright smile, but what he felt was Lu Yanzhou’s disgust for him.
Xie Chengze has known since he was very young that he can’t expect everyone to like him, but he is still a human after all, so he naturally wants to get along with people who like him.
If he really had to sense the malice coming from others all the time, he might go crazy.
Therefore, he has a good impression of Lu Yanzhou, the company’s newly signed internet celebrity.
Although Lu Yanzhou had many shortcomings in other aspects besides his appearance, Lu Yanzhou liked him from the bottom of his heart. This alone made him willing to stay with Lu Yanzhou.
This morning, Lu Yanzhou was still very fond of him and greeted him awkwardly. How long had it passed, how come his feelings towards him had completely changed?
However, Xie Chengze had experienced too many such things, so he quickly regained his composure and asked Lu Yanzhou with a smile: “Why did you come see me?”
Lu Yanzhou came to see Xie Chengze. Naturally, there was nothing wrong, he simply wanted to see Xie Chengze.
However, Xie Chengze asked this…Lu Yanzhou said: “Mr. Xie, I have something, I don’t know how to tell you…”
“Just tell me.” Xie Chengze had a perfect smile on his face, but his mood had hit rock bottom.
In the past twenty years, he had met many people who hated him, but no one had ever hated him as much as Lu Yanzhou.
The strong feeling of disgust was about to bury his entire being.
He really couldn’t figure out what he had done to make Lu Yanzhou hate him so much.
Lu Yanzhou said: “Mr. Xie, it’s like this, my parents keep asking me for money, and I don’t know what to do.”
The original owner used to work in that small company… It’s hard to describe how he became famous.
He first copied other people’s ideas and made his own short videos and posted them on the platform to gain fans. When he became famous…he immediately started doing whatever he could to make money.
At that time, the original owner could live stream for eight hours a day. He would sit at the table and cook, selling his own pots, hot sauces, and all kinds of food.
If the quality of the things he sells is good, it would be fine. But the small company is unreliable, and the quality of the things sold by the original owner is also very poor. For example, many people buy the food and taste it, and they think it is not delicious.
The so-called non-stick pans he sells are cheap. After a month or two, it turns from non-stick pans to sticky pans.
In the past, the small company would force the original owner to earn such bad money, but when it came to Xie Chengze’s company, Xie Chengze’s company did not allow him to do so.
The original owner has signed a contract with Xie Chengze’s company for two months now. Xie Chengze has arranged many courses for the original owner to learn, and also offered the original owner a basic salary of 5,000 per month, but he has never allowed the original owner to make money through live streaming.
Naturally, the original owner had no money to give to his parents.
The original owner’s parents were so anxious that they called the original owner all day long to ask for money.
The original owner had actually noticed something was wrong, and even considered going home to find out why his parents kept asking for money, but he hadn’t set off yet.
Lu Yanzhou knew what happened to the original owner’s parents so he didn’t take them seriously, but he planned to use the original owner’s parents to pretend to be pitiful and get close to Xie Chengze.
“Your parents keep asking you for money, what’s going on?” Xie Chengze asked.
Lu Yanzhou did not hide anything: “My family is not that poor, both of my parents work, but when I was admitted to a junior college, they didn’t let me go to school and forced me to work instead. When I became popular on the short video platform, they kept asking me for money, and so far they have asked for a total of 300,000 yuan…The previous company before lent 100,000 yuan to me, which was given to them.”
Xie Chengze had investigated Lu Yanzhou before signing him.
If Lu Yanzhou had problems with his character, he would never sign Lu Yanzhou.
As for Lu Yanzhou’s character, according to his investigation, there is no problem — Lu Yanzhou does not smoke or drink, and has a clean and simple private life. However, his family seems a bit poor, and he even borrowed 100,000 yuan from the company to send to his family.
Xie Chengze paid back the 100,000 yuan when he helped Lu Yanzhou pay the liquidated damages. He didn’t think of asking Lu Yanzhou for it again. He also told Lu Yanzhou that if he had any difficulties at home, he could come to him.
Now according to what Lu Yanzhou said…so it’s not that his family is in trouble? Is it just that parents are greedy?
How could Lu Yanzhou’s parents treat him like this?
Wait, Lu Yanzhou suddenly disliked him. Could it be that he was unhappy because he didn’t make any money after joining his company?
Xie Chengze had many thoughts in his mind.
Lu Yanzhou showed some misery at the right time: “Mr. Xie, they just treat me as a cash machine and want to force me to death. I don’t know what to do. After all, they are my parents…”
Lu Yanzhou looked a little pitiful.
Seeing him like this, Xie Chengze couldn’t help but feel sympathy for him, and even wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears on his face.
How could he have such emotions? Xie Chengze was confused, and the disgust that had been coming from Lu Yanzhou was like pouring a bucket of ice water on his head.
Lu Yanzhou hated him so much, why did he still sympathize with Lu Yanzhou?
Thinking this in his heart, Xie Chengze opened his mouth and asked, “How could they do this to you?”
“They haven’t liked me since I was a child, they only like my cousin.” Lu Yanzhou looked at Xie Chengze with red eyes and began to tell what the original owner had encountered since he was a child.
Based on his understanding of Xie Chengze, Xie Chengze will definitely sympathize with him, and then he can take one step further with Xie Chengze!
Lu Yanzhou has experienced so many worlds, and his acting skills have made great progress. He vividly played the role of a poor young man who felt bad because he was not loved by his parents.
Xie Chengze also felt that Lu Yanzhou was pitiful. He even wanted to hold Lu Yanzhou in his arms to comfort him.
But Lu Yanzhou hates him so much…
“Your parents treat you like this, why do you need to give them any more money?” Xie Chengze said.
“Mr. Xie, do you think I shouldn’t give them money?” Lu Yanzhou blinked his eyes and looked at Xie Chengze, looking like he was begging for approval.
Xie Chengze said: “You shouldn’t.”
Lu Yanzhou smiled and looked at Xie Chengze intently: “Mr. Xie, I will listen to you. I will never give them money again.”
Lu Yanzhou looked like he liked him very much and was willing to listen to him in everything, but in his heart, Lu Yanzhou clearly hated him.
Xie Chengze tried his best to ignore the waves of disgust and talked about the matter: “Yes, let’s do it! Don’t let them affect your mood now, just work hard and make money!”
“Mr. Xie, I will do it, I will make money! “Lu Yanzhou looked at Xie Chengze firmly.
Xie Chengze said: “As long as you understand this…I remember you have a class later? Go to class.”
Just when Lu Yanzhou wanted to say that his class was in two hours, Xie Chengze said again: “I still have something to do. ”
Xie Chengze said so…Lu Yanzhou had no choice but to leave.
When leaving, Lu Yanzhou was a little confused.
Xie Chengze’s attitude towards him was not bad, and he could also see that when he talked about his previous experiences, Xie Chengze’s eyes were filled with distress.
But Xie Chengze’s reaction was completely different from what he imagined.
Xie Chengze has always been very kind to the original owner. It stands to reason that when he cried in front of Xie Chengze like this, Xie Chengze should comfort him. Why did Xie Chengze make him leave without saying a few more words?
As far as he knew, Xie Chengze was not busy at all. In the past, the original owner asked Xie Chengze to tell him something and Xie Chengze was willing to listen for a long time.
Xie Chengze would never like the original owner more than him, right?
Lu Yanzhou thought of this, but quickly smiled, knowing that this was impossible.
Xie Chengze might be feeling uncomfortable or embarrassed.
Now Xie Chengze asked him to go to class…Lu Yanzhou simply went to the place where the company taught artists.
When he got there, Lu Yanzhou found that someone was already here.
Xie Chengze’s company plans to develop the internet celebrity field and sign several people. Of course, it is impossible to sign only Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou is the first internet celebrity they signed, and in the past few days, they have signed several more.
The original owner had never met these people before. Of course, it was the first time for Lu Yanzhou to meet them too, so he immediately greeted them.
These people are a little thoughtful, but who is Lu Yanzhou? With just a few words, he got closer to these people.
Among these internet celebrities, Lu Yanzhou’s favorite is the fat man named Zhen Shuai.
Zhen Shuai is a very lively fat man. In the original trajectory, the original owner kept sticking to Xie Chengze and wanted to make quick money. Zhen Shuai also persuaded the original owner and even asked the original owner to make short videos with him to use his traffic for the original owner.
It’s just that the original owner didn’t listen to him. Instead, he was very jealous of him. He felt that he was a big fat guy and there was no reason for his fans to be several times as many as his own.
That’s right, Zhen Shuai has the most fans among them now, with more than 10 million fans on the short video platform.
The original owner signed a contract with Xie Chengze’s company for two months and shot some relatively high-quality short videos, but he only had more than three million fans.
However, Zhen Shuai is really fat, weighing at least 300 catties(~396.8 pounds), so many people look at him strangely.
It just so happens that Zhen Shuai’s online name is ‘Peerless Beauty’. Not only that, but the short videos he shoots also have this theme.
Zhen Shuai’s videos always start with a self-introduction. The 300 catties Zhen Shuai says to everyone in front of the camera: “Hello everyone, I am the extremely beautiful man Zhen Shuai…”
Then he will go do something else. For example, when buying a steamed bun or something, some people would look at him dumbfounded and murmur to themselves: “So handsome, so beautiful…” These people would be fascinated by him and do all kinds of incredible things.
At this time, Zhen Shuai sighed again: “Today, countless people are fascinated by my beauty. The life of a peerless handsome man is so magnificent.”
The video Zhen Shuai shot is considered a funny video. He is obviously a fat man but in his video, everyone would stare at him in a daze.
Couples quarreling on the street would stop their quarrel and be fascinated by him when they saw him appear.
An old man in a wheelchair would stand up and follow him when he appeared.
Young guys who ride well will run into the wall after seeing him.
Then wearing a torn T-shirt and weighing 300 catties, he would sigh: “The life of a peerless beauty is so magnificent.”
The contrast is so great that he has accumulated tens of millions of fans on short video websites, and countless people laughed out loud watching his spoof videos.
What Lu Yanzhou admires the most is Zhen Shuai’s mentality. Many people online call him fat, but his mentality has always been very good.
Lu Yanzhou chatted with Zhen Shuai and learned that Zhen Shuai was thinking about new short video content, so he came up with an idea: “How about making a series of beauty that can make fish sink, geese fall, and the moon hide? For example, if you go to the supermarket and all the fish sink, for example, if you go to a chicken farm, all the chickens fall…”
“Good idea!” Zhen Shuai thinks Lu Yanzhou’s idea is good. As for why the good falling geese change into falling chicken…He made funny videos! These days, the wild geese are nowhere to be found: “Just drop the killed chicken for fallen chicken. Then I will pick it up and say my famous saying — the life of a peerless beauty is so magnificent…”
” Okay!” Lu Yanzhou asked again, “Brother Zhen, would you like to take me with you and let me use your traffic?”
Zhen Shuai said, “Okay, in this case, should we discuss a new script? When I was walking on the street, I saw you and found that you were more handsome than me, and then you felt incredible?”
“No, no, Brother Zhen, you don’t need to compliment me so much, just follow your usual style, Brother Zhen, like the plot of the chicken farm. I am a staff member of the chicken farm, and then I forgot to feed the chickens when I saw you.” Said Lu Yanzhou.
In Zhen Shuai’s short videos, there are many passers-by who are fascinated by him when they see him. In the past, Zhen Shuai always asked his relatives and friends to take videos with him.
Lu Yanzhou didn’t intend to let Zhen Shuai praise him. He didn’t mind playing a supporting role in Zhen Shuai’s short video.
The main reason is…he didn’t plan to keep making short videos.
In other words, Xie Chengze’s various trainings for him are destined to be in vain.
Feeling embarrassed, Lu Yanzhou thought about giving Xie Chengze some help, such as making Zhen Shuai more popular.
He can definitely be called a handsome guy. He was fascinated by Zhen Shuai in Zhen Shuai’s short video, the contrast is big enough and funny enough.
Lu Yanzhou was obsessed with work and discussed with Zhen Shuai what to do next.
At this time, Xie Chengze became more and more irritable.
After Lu Yanzhou left his office, he didn’t know what was going on. He kept thinking about Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou’s frown and smile seemed to be right in front of him.
The fact that Lu Yanzhou hated him made him feel extremely disappointed.
If someone hated him so much in the past, he would have sent them away long ago, out of sight, but now he doesn’t want to do that at all.
After he couldn’t see Lu Yanzhou or feel Lu Yanzhou’s disgust for him, he began to feel sorry for Lu Yanzhou’s experience. He wanted to stand up for Lu Yanzhou and wanted to teach Lu Yanzhou’s parents and cousin a lesson…
Xie Chengze’s face was a little ugly. .
He didn’t understand why he was like this, but he still couldn’t hold back and asked someone to find Lu Yanzhou’s manager.
As soon as Lu Yanzhou’s manager showed up, Xie Chengze felt several emotions from him — Lu Yanzhou’s manager wanted to please him.
Xie Chengze kept talking to Lu Yanzhou’s manager, and he mentioned Lu Yanzhou as he was talking.
When he felt the emotions of the person in front of him, he asked him questions without any hesitation.
Lu Yanzhou’s manager is not smart. If he were really smart, he wouldn’t have worked as a manager for such a small company before and then signed up amateurs all over the street.
He chatted with Xie Chengze for a while, and thought he understood what Xie Chengze meant: “Don’t worry, Mr. Xie, Lu Yanzhou also knows your love for Lu Yanzhou. I keep reminding him to repay you well.”
After that, the manager smiled and gave Xie Chengze an ‘I understand’ look.
Xie Chengze is a boss at a very young age. From time to time, people want to seduce him and climb into his bed.
He wasn’t interested in that, but he met a lot of people who wanted to pimp.
The person in front of him, whether in emotion or expression or behavior, is exactly the same as those who are trying to pimp!
“Have you tried to persuade Lu Yanzhou?” Xie Chengze asked.
Lu Yanzhou’s manager said: “Mr. Xie, I just advised him! Lu Yanzhou is not without feelings, he will definitely come to you on his own initiative.”
Xie Chengze had the urge to slap this manager.
He finally knew why Lu Yanzhou suddenly changed his attitude towards him and hated him so much!
Lu Yanzhou regarded him as a pervert!
Lu Yanzhou was an artist under him. He felt that he was unable to resist him, so he felt disgusted with him…
This was something that was easy to figure out. Lu Yanzhou was a straight man and he definitely couldn’t bear to be attracted by a man like him!
But he really has no such intention. He likes Lu Yanzhou purely because Lu Yanzhou likes him and makes him feel happy!
Xie Chengze’s first reaction was to explain clearly to Lu Yanzhou and tell him that he had no wrong intentions.
After he explains clearly, Lu Yanzhou’s attitude towards him will change back to what it was before?
Then they can get along like before. He wanted to hug Lu Yanzhou and comfort Lu Yanzhou…
Xie Chengze thought of this and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He really didn’t have any bad thoughts about Lu Yanzhou before, but now…he seems to have.
He felt quite uncomfortable when Lu Yanzhou hated him so much today, and it was this situation that made him wake up and realize that he liked Lu Yanzhou.
Therefore, this manager, and even Lu Yanzhou, did not misunderstand.
Xie Chengze wanted to punish Lu Yanzhou’s manager before, but when he thought that this person actually discovered his feelings before him and told Lu Yanzhou about it, he couldn’t say anything to punish him.
Xie Chengze said: “Don’t try to persuade Lu Yanzhou anymore!”
The manager just thought that Xie Chengze didn’t like him interfering in their relationship: “Mr. Xie, I will listen to you.”
“Also, don’t let Lu Yanzhou know about what I asked you to do today.” Xie Chengze added.
The manager also agreed.
Xie Chengze asked him to leave, and after he left, he rubbed his brow.
The fact that he likes Lu Yanzhou is quite surprising, but there are traces of it.
The first time he met Lu Yanzhou, he liked him very much.
However, Lu Yanzhou obviously doesn’t like him. Lu Yanzhou may even be deeply homophobic or have been traumatized by this aspect, so that after knowing his feelings, he deeply dislikes him.
This feeling of his is probably destined to be doomed at the end.
Xie Chengze didn’t intend to force the person he liked, so he finally sighed and planned to let go of Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou hates him so much, he must be afraid that he will do something…From now on, it would be better for him to stay away from Lu Yanzhou.
As for Lu Yanzhou’s current financial situation, Xie Chengze was thinking about arranging some money-making jobs for Lu Yanzhou.
Their company has a TV series that is about to be filmed. He had no intention of letting Lu Yanzhou join before. After all, Lu Yanzhou had no experience at all, but now…let Lu Yanzhou join the team.
In this way, Lu Yanzhou will have a salary.
And Lu Yanzhou’s internet celebrity career…Although the short videos the company shot for Lu Yanzhou in the past two months are of much better quality than those Lu Yanzhou shot before, they don’t seem to be very popular among netizens.
He can do some more searching, find more people who are good at writing short video scripts, and tailor some scripts for Lu Yanzhou.
In this way…slowly, Lu Yanzhou should stop hating him, right?
Xie Chengze sighed.
He didn’t expect that he only realized his feelings after the person he liked hated him.
However, a person like him who has the ability to read minds is not suitable for establishing intimate relationships with others. It is actually very good to completely separate from Lu Yanzhou like this.
Xie Chengze made up his mind to part ways with Lu Yanzhou and it was best not to have any contact with him again.
But when he was about to leave the company after work, he was stopped by Lu Yanzhou: “Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie, let me treat you to dinner!”
When Xie Chengze saw Lu Yanzhou from a distance, his heartbeat inevitably accelerated.
But then, the disgust from Lu Yanzhou made his heartbeat suddenly stop, and he almost couldn’t stand up.
Does the person he likes hate him so much?
Omg this’ll be painful to read 😖
