The other party seemed taken aback.
Immediately, Sister Fang furrowed her brows and scolded, “Su Yan, do you know that artists cannot take on private jobs without company approval? All your schedules must follow the company’s instructions! Besides, are you dreaming? With your current reputation, which director in their right mind would invite you?”
Su Yan lowered her gaze. “Mr. Lu.”
“What ‘Mr. Lu’? I’ve never heard of any director named Lu. Don’t make things up here…”
Su Yan smiled and corrected her, “It’s Lu Cheng.”
Lu Cheng’s name was well-known in the entertainment industry!
The agent was dumbfounded. “Are you saying that Mr. Lu Cheng arranged the program for you?”
“Yes,” Su Yan replied, feigning nonchalance. “Since the company doesn’t want me to participate, I’ll just tell Mr. Lu Cheng like this. After all, I don’t want to pay a breach of contract fee…”
The agent’s attitude immediately changed. “No, no! Su Yan, little lady, don’t!”
Su Yan, however, had a cold look in her eyes. “The company wants to sideline me, right? We should have a way to deal with that.”
“No freezing, no freezing. How could we freeze you? I’ll provide you with top-notch resources, how about that?”
Su Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I remember our contract still has three years left, but I’m a bit tight on money lately…”
The agent gritted her teeth. “Fine, fine! We’ll change the previous 1:9 ratio to 3:7 for you!”
Su Yan smiled. “I think a 50-50 split would be fairer.”
“Susan, don’t push your luck!” The agent warned. “A 50-50 split is something only an A-list actor gets! You’re just a newcomer; why should you get it?”
Su Yan replied, “Pressure is too high. It turns out I was asking for too much. Well, if that’s the case, I’ll just decline Mr. Lu Cheng…”
“Alright, alright, you win. It’s a 50-50 split!”
After negotiating with her agent, Su Yan hung up the phone. She looked at her mobile and suddenly felt a triumphant sense of power. So, this was what it felt like to have connections!
That evening, Chu Tianye returned to his long-lost home. When he entered, the room was quiet.
Su Yan seemed to be asleep.
Thinking about what Lu Cheng had said about how hard it was for actors on set, Chu Tianye slowed his pace. He entered the master bedroom and realized that Su Yan wasn’t there…
Chu Tianye furrowed his brows, feeling that something was amiss. He glanced toward the guest bedroom and found Su Yan sleeping soundly on the couch!
On the door of the guest bedroom, there was a note, “Since you chose the master bedroom, 1’11 stay in the guest bedroom.”
Chu Tianye,”!!”
Who the hell wants to sleep in separate rooms with you?!
He suppressed his anger and returned to the master bedroom. When he lay down on the bed, he was still fuming.
Did this Su Yan even know what marriage was? What did it mean to be husband and wife? What was this situation?
A sham marriage? A sham husband and wife?!
In name only?!
He felt that he needed to have a talk with Su Yan!
The night passed without a word.
Early the next morning, Chu Tianye heard some noise outside.
Su Yan was humming a little tune as she cooked.
When Chu Tianye walked out, she immediately looked at him and said, “Sis, awake?”
Chu Tianye,”??”
He furrowed his brows. “What kind of strange address is that?”
Su Yan immediately covered her mouth, laughing. Even if Chu Tianye were Lu Cheng’s lover, he definitely wouldn’t want people to gossip about it, so she had misspoken.
She smiled and said, “Nothing, uh, let’s eat, shall we? Oh, by the way, did Mr. Lu Cheng tell you about the TV show?”
Chu Tianye walked over and saw the breakfast on the table, all made by Su Yan herself. Did this girl know that he had helped her? Was she thanking him for that?
Thinking this, Chu Tianye said casually, “Yes.”
But what followed was something he didn’t expect. Su Yan said, “Don’t mention it. Helping you debut is only natural, after all, we still have the title of husband and wife!”
Chu Tianye,”?!?”
He was dumbfounded. “What do you mean?”
Su Yan winked at him playfully. “I understand your relationship with Mr. Lu. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone…”
Chu Tianye, however, misunderstood her, thinking that Su Yan had found out something. He cleared his throat and said somewhat unnaturally, “What relationship? Don’t make things up…”
Su Yan coughed lightly. “Don’t worry, 1 won’t tell anyone. But… Can I ask you a question?”
“What?” Chu Tianye asked.
“You and Mr. Lu, who’s on top and who’s on the bottom?” Su Yan asked with a gossipy look.
Chu Tianye,”?!?”
Chu Tianye,”!!!”
He practically jumped up from the dining table.. “Su Yan!! What nonsense are you talking about?! I’m not that kind of disgusting person!”
