It was 5:30 in the afternoon when Zhang Bin, dressed in a black suit and looking just like a bodyguard, drove Zhu Danyan’s BMW out of the villa, heading straight for the Junhao Hotel.
Zhu Danyan, sitting in the back seat, wore no makeup, revealing her natural, bare face. Dressed in a pink gown, adorned with a beautiful necklace and a jade bracelet, the fragrance emanating from her was more delightful than the finest perfu. She looked exceptionally glamorous and enchanting. Her radiance was not only due to the nourishnt she received from Zhang Bin but also, of course, from the miraculous effects of the Evergreen Pill.
As a result, she felt as if she had beco more than a decade younger, bursting with vitality and in exceptionally high spirits, which in turn greatly improved her mood.
She gazed affectionately at Zhang Bin’s broad back and said coyly, "Zhang Bin, the world of film and television is a special one, entirely different from your Martial Arts Circle. It has its own unique rules. If you don’t follow them, you won’t last. So tonight, you’re just a bodyguard tasked with ensuring my safety. For the rest of the ti, you are not allowed to say a single word."
"I don’t even have the right to speak?" Zhang Bin cried out, infuriated. "I was planning to beat that bastard to the ground with a few punches and kicks the mont I saw him, trample him under my foot, and then torture him. He has the nerve to make a move on one of my won! He’s clearly tired of living; it’d be strange if I didn’t kill him."
"You..." Zhu Danyan was so frustrated she could hardly speak. "You brute, you bumpkin, you martial arts athead! So crude. Just as crude as you are in bed. Let tell you, we are not going to fight; we are going to a banquet. Although the other party has ill intentions, he’s not so classless scoundrel. Besides, aren’t all you n the sa? When you see a beautiful woman, you’ll do whatever it takes to have her, or at the very least, get a one-night stand out of it. Weren’t you thinking the sa thing last night when you saw that beauty?"
"Uh... you have quite the imagination, I’ll give you that," Zhang Bin said, unsure whether to laugh or cry. "n aren’t all the sa. A man like , no matter how beautiful a woman is or how much she attracts , would never force her, much less use threats. That’s why I despise n like that, and that’s why I want to teach him a lesson, so he learns how to be a decent person."
"You’re right. Lv Yuze is notorious for being despicable. But he also operates within the rules. If I wasn’t aiming to win the King of Singers competition and hold on to my throne as the Empress, I wouldn’t have asked that genius Zhao Liang to write a new song. Then Lv Yuze would have no way to threaten . I could simply ignore him," Zhu Danyan explained. "So today, I have to maneuver around him. I need to not only secure the new song written by Zhao Liang but also protect myself and avoid giving up anything."
"How is that possible? You’re being too naive," Zhang Bin said, a wry smile on his face.
"Why isn’t it possible? Just stand by and watch. I’ll make it happen. Having you with is rely a deterrent, just in case," Zhu Danyan replied. "I have to continue in this industry. I now have thirty years of youth back. I can be an ageless Empress for three decades, create an incredible miracle, and have my fans worship . Therefore, we cannot resort to force unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, everything could be ruined, and I might not even be able to survive in this industry anymore."
"Does that moron really have that much influence?"
Zhang Bin’s brow furrowed slightly. His first instinct was to skip the scheming and just beat the man half to death. Unfortunately, Zhu Danyan wouldn’t allow it. Besides, he didn’t even have a valid reason to do so, since Zhu Danyan wouldn’t publicly acknowledge that she was his woman. Doing so would likely cause problems for her, and that was sothing he did not want to see.
"To say Lv Yuze’s influence is enormous is an understatent; it’s terrifying." Zhu Danyan’s face revealed a mixture of admiration and fear. "Lv Yuze is a king in the entertainnt industry, possessing talent and genius beyond your wildest imagination. Not only does he have superb acting skills, but he’s also the most inspired King of Singers. His songs are highly popular even overseas. What’s terrifying is that he’s also a writer bursting with talent, and his books are bestsellers around the world. Movies made from his screenplays beco instant blockbusters. He’s also adept at writing music and lyrics; any song he touches turns into a hit. That man, Zhao Liang, is his disciple. Lv Yuze is the godfather of the entertainnt world. He can blacklist anyone he wants. Even though I’m the Empress, he could blacklist far too easily. With just one word from him, I’d never get another role in a movie or TV series. What’s more, no one would be willing to write songs for . As a result, he’s slept with countless beautiful starlets... It’s safe to say that any female star he sets his eyes on cannot escape him."
HISS...
Zhang Bin sucked in a sharp breath of cold air, a look of shock on his face. A man this powerful actually exists in the world?
In the past, he was just a small farr who struggled to get enough to eat, tornted by poverty to the brink of death. He never got into following celebrities. Therefore, he was completely clueless about the entertainnt industry; you could say he knew jack shit.
After his fortuitous encounter put him on the path of cultivation, he was so busy training and trying to save Earth and humanity that he had no ti to learn about such things. If it weren’t for founding the Star Interlanguage School and needing to advertise, he might have gone his entire life without ever dealing with the entertainnt world, let alone eting the Empress, Zhu Danyan, and sharing so many wonderful monts with her.
"Now you see how formidable he is, right? I’m telling you, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. He has many secrets unknown to others. It’s rumored he’s also a powerful Superpower User and even a high-ranking mber of a Special Ability Organization. You can’t afford to offend soone like that; we can only maneuver carefully around him," Zhu Danyan said seriously.
Zhang Bin sneered inwardly. I don’t care what his background is, but he’d better not ss with . It’s in my nature to defy the odds, and I’ve never feared the powerful. That martial expert from the Island Nation, Changdao Sheng, was tough, right? The Arican King of Gamblers, Buck, was aweso, wasn’t he? The leader of the Hell Organization, Edward, was vicious, no? Those SSS-level Genetically Enhanced Humans, Jack and Sandra, were terrifying, weren’t they? And Hanbing Yun, with her unparalleled wisdom and infallible strategies? Yet when they all challenged , Zhang Bin, they ended up six feet under as corpses. Now there’s this Lv Yuze who also seems pretty formidable. Would I, Zhang Bin, be afraid of him? Just don’t provoke . Definitely don’t try anything with my woman. The consequences won’t be pretty.
However, he put on a very wary expression and said, "Don’t worry. Since Lv Yuze is such a big deal, I won’t act rashly. We’ll do our best to play along and get through this crisis unhard."
"That’s more like it." Zhu Danyan let out a sigh of relief, her face breaking into a radiant smile.
