Now reading: Chapter 1837: Rising Star (39) from Let's Squander A Billion First!, a Sci-fi novel by Mo Ling.

Chuzheng held the belief that Good Person Cards were ant to be squandered. After embedding diamonds into the office chair at the Good Person Card office, she successfully angered soone and got dragged into a car.

Drag isn’t quite right, it was more like pulling her by the wrist.

"Are you that idle?" Gu Yu pressed down Chuzheng’s arm, gritting his teeth: "No films to shoot?"

"No." Chuzheng stared at him.

Since she hadn’t accepted any new roles, she was of course idle.

"Without a film to shoot, don’t you know to accept roles yourself?" Gu Yu gritted his teeth: "Why are you ssing around in my office?"

Now, whenever she ca to the company, everyone treated her with reverence, like they were welcoming a leader’s inspection, and she’d give out gifts on a whim when she was happy.

Gu Yu didn’t exactly fancy those gifts, but once they added up, it beca a huge amount.

Now, the company staff hardly recognized him as the official CEO.

"There aren’t any I want to take." Is she the type to just take any role? If she accepted and couldn’t perform well, wouldn’t she get scolded? I’m not stupid.

Suddenly, Chuzheng reached out and hooked her arm around Gu Yu’s neck, her face growing larger and larger in his eyes.

-

Bang—

As Gu Yu stood up, he hit his head. He pushed open the car door and got out: "Send her back." He tossed this line to the bodyguard standing outside, and quickly headed towards the elevator.

He frantically pressed the elevator button, and once inside, he adjusted his collar and let out a breath.

Gu Yu glanced at himself in the mirror, and his expression turned unpleasant, his lips pressed hard together as he shifted his gaze to the elevator buttons.

Returning to his office, Gu Yu’s eyes landed on the diamond-inlaid swivel chair, and he couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

How bored must she be!

Gu Yu went over to pick at it, only to find it completely stuck and unable to remove, he couldn’t figure out how she even managed to put it there...

Gu Yu gave up on fighting with the chair, and called up his agent at ho, idle and awaiting death.

"Co over and pick soone up."

"Huh?" The agent was confused: "Pick up who? Weren’t you planning not to make a coback?"

"My wife."

"Huh????"

Wasn’t she just a girlfriend? How did she beco a wife? Could the rumors online be true?

"Are you really married?"

"Is that not okay?" Gu Yu hung up the phone.

The agent: "..."

He didn’t say it wasn’t okay, why the big temper.

-

Gu Yu found an agent for Chuzheng. The agent imdiately laid out a series of plans for her, arranging everything clearly.

When this agent managed Gu Yu, he was already famous, with both great thods and connections, many people wanted him as their manager but didn’t get the chance.

Chuzheng, having this opportunity, wasn’t too thrilled.

She just wanted to stay quiet and be a salted fish.

The agent was arranged by Gu Yu, and Chuzheng couldn’t just dismiss him, forcing her to participate in events, read scripts, audition... it was tough for her.

The agent followed Gu Yu’s instructions and selected scripts for Chuzheng, containing roles suitable for her.

However, Chuzheng was even pickier, refusing roles with bad stories, or too big of a character shift... in the end, the only thing left was the villain’s role.

Just as Chuzheng considered quitting every day, Director Xie’s film put its broadcast schedule on the agenda, with various promotional activities coming one after another.

The agent also squeezed in ti to get her comrcials, fearing she wouldn’t make money.

"I don’t need these..."

"You need to maintain your fa, so you do need these. And whichever advertisents you take, it proves your status, you can’t skip them."

The agent’s little mouth could chatter non-stop for three minutes without pausing for breath.

It would be a waste if he didn’t go into stand-up cody!

With Gu Yu’s instructions, the agent must ensure she doesn’t have ti to go looking for him, so the agent had to give it his all to schedule for Chuzheng.

"How much is Gu Yu paying you?"

The agent paused, then patted his chest solemnly: "This isn’t a matter of money, it’s about my professional spirit as an agent. Now that I’m managing you, I must make you a movie queen."

Chuzheng: "..."

Chuzheng wrote a check for the agent: "Is this enough?"

The agent glanced at the zeros: "Miss Qin, I’m not that kind of person."

Chuzheng wrote another check.

The agent smiled: "Miss Qin, I really am not that kind of person."

Chuzheng kept writing.

The agent was unmoved, as a professional agent, how could he bend for a little money... not even a pile of money!

The agent demonstrated the noble spirit of not bending to money.

Chuzheng: "..."

Bastard, look, didn’t you say money could do anything?

King’s Account pretended not to be online, remaining silent.

Chuzheng’s gaze road over the agent, contemplating where to start hitting from.

The agent appeared to sense sothing: "I’m stepping out for a call."

The agent went out to smoke a cigarette, feeling lancholic. If Gu Yu hadn’t given him a heads-up, saying that his spouse might attempt to bribe him with fake checks, he might have wavered.

Thinking of all those zeros.

If it were real, he’d have struck gold.

But were those checks really fake?

...Gu Yu shouldn’t lie to him.

-

Chuzheng’s ti was spent on filming, activities, and the opportunities to et Gu Yu significantly decreased.

With her new film airing, her fa rose further, her fan count skyrocketing, now reaching ten million followers.

Great, that’s already a fraction of Gu Yu’s.

While Chuzheng’s fa soared, Fu Xingchen was quite unlucky. First, his new drama couldn’t air due to certain reasons, then his role got stolen.

His status, having roles snatched away like that, showed the opponent wasn’t a small-ti character.

The movie he was working on also halted because a sponsor suddenly pulled out, stopping the entire crew.

Nothing he did went smoothly.

Fu Xingchen’s career was unsuccessful, and over at Nian Yue’s side, she kept making small mistakes, and had disagreents with him on so views, causing frequent argunts.

Fu Xingchen gradually avoided seeing Nian Yue.

Nian Yue hadn’t seen Fu Xingchen for almost a month, initially thinking he was with the crew, but then saw on hot search that Fu Xingchen was in another city.

The movie he was filming had long been shut down.

Yet Fu Xingchen hadn’t said a word to her, Nian Yue felt her relationship with Fu Xingchen was drifting apart, which made her a bit anxious.

She bought a ticket that night and rushed to find Fu Xingchen.

However, at the hotel, she saw Fu Xingchen coming in and out with another woman, their relationship seemingly intimate.

Nian Yue found Fu Xingchen, who explained that they were together just for work, nothing beyond that.

Nian Yue didn’t believe it, they argued in the room, and parted ways unhappily.

anwhile, news about Fu Xingchen and that woman started surfacing online, photos were taken of them here and there, appearing quite ambiguous to Nian Yue from those blurry images.

Initially, Nian Yue could hold back, only asking Fu Xingchen.

But as Fu Xingchen’s attitude beca increasingly dismissive, Nian Yue couldn’t bear it anymore. After seeing the news online again, she directly posted on Weibo.

Her words indirectly accused the woman of being indiscreet, knowing Fu Xingchen had a girlfriend but still staying so close to him.
