Pampered by the School Bully Chapter 1052 - 1039: Yan Siyuan Is Afraid

After agreeing to help Director Lu Xun with a cao role, Huo Feng, Yan Siyuan, and Director Lu Xun reached an agreent.

Once Huo Feng and Yan Siyuan complete their cao shots for Director Lu Xun, Lu Xun will invest a full 500,000 yuan in them.

After that, how Huo Feng and Yan Siyuan’s studio decides to use this money is entirely up to them, as long as they provide regular progress reports to Lu Xun.

As the largest shareholder of this ga, Lu Xun has no opinions on how they should manage the ga’s subsequent promotion, he just wants to know the steps and outcos.

Huo Feng and Yan Siyuan truly appreciate the trust Lu Xun has placed in them deep down in their hearts.

However, on the way back, the more Yan Siyuan thought about it, the more sothing didn’t feel right...

...

At 8:30 in the evening, Yan Siyuan returned to the dormitory after washing his hair and taking a shower, and finally realized what was off about all this!

"Huo Feng..."

Yan Siyuan placed the washbasin on the cabinet, wiped his wet hair, and turned to Huo Feng, "I’ve discovered a problem."

"What problem?"

At that mont, Huo Feng was sitting at the desk, browsing his phone and bouncing his foot. After today’s successful investnt pull, he seed in high spirits, even his tone was light.

Yan Siyuan just wanted to talk to Huo Feng about this, "Director Lu said he wanted us to do a cao, but did he ntion paying us a fee?"

"Nope."

Huo Feng replied swiftly, "What’s there to talk about fees, it’s just a friendly cao for a few days. Director Lu is such a straightforward and pleasant guy, where else can you find a collaborator this great, don’t you think?"

"Different issues are separate issues. He’s not giving us this 500,000 yuan for nothing, it’s an investnt in us. If our ga becos profitable, we’ll have to give him a cut."

Yan Siyuan felt sothing was off, "But he let us do the cao without ntioning a single word about paynt, which ans we’re working for him for free."

"Tsk..."

Huo Feng set down his phone and raised an eyebrow at Yan Siyuan, "This little amount, just think of it as helping out in friendship, okay? Don’t fuss over it!"

Listening to Huo Feng, Yan Siyuan kept wiping his hair and walked over to Huo Feng,

pulled over a chair next to him to sit down, "Hey, so you an we’re just going to work for Director Lu for free? Are you sure?"

"Absolutely."

Huo Feng nodded without hesitation, "Think about how hard we’ve been struggling lately. When everyone in society looks down on our careers, Director Lu supported us fully without saying a single word! Just because of his staunch loyalty, we must repay him in kind!"

"Are you sure it’s like that?"

Yan Siyuan frowned, "Isn’t it actually because he has sothing to gain from us? That’s why he invested so eagerly? You should know, he doesn’t give us 500,000 yuan for free, if the ga profits, he gets a share."

"So what. Even if this 500,000 yuan isn’t given for free, he offered this favor and face regardless!"

Huo Feng spoke naturally, "I’m telling you, even if he has sothing to gain, it’s because he appreciates us. Otherwise, why would he want you to add a role in his film as soon as he t you? He said he’d have the screenwriter write suitable roles for us imdiately, wanting us to act in his film—it’s not about what he wants from us, it’s because he recognized us! You heard of instant chemistry? That’s what we had with him! That’s why he splurged 500,000 yuan just to have us appear in his film, isn’t that great?"

Yan Siyuan could actually grasp the point Huo Feng was making...

But...

Acting things...

Yan Siyuan took a deep breath, still hesitating, "I guess... he really just cares about looks, right?"

"Yeah, it’s about looks."

Huo Feng tilted his head, staring at Yan Siyuan, a single sharp eyebrow lifted, "So basically, we got this 500,000 yuan investnt thanks to your face. Otherwise, Director Lu might’ve rejected us outright, which would be very normal. Heaven’s gift to you, and yet you’re not grateful, you’re thinking about settling accounts with him?"

Yan Siyuan sighed heavily, his face full of lancholy, "With you saying that, I can’t argue back."

At this point, Huo Feng locked his gaze tighter on Yan Siyuan’s face...

Yan Siyuan’s thoughts paused for a few seconds, and when he snapped back, he realized Huo Feng was looking at him, his sharp brows tightened abruptly, "What’s up?"

Huo Feng’s thin lips curled high, "Yan Ji, are you scared? Afraid of acting?"

Yan Siyuan’s face showed a touch of discomfort, sitting straight, "Lack of experience, yes; afraid, impossible. Everything has a first ti; since I agreed to try, perhaps it’s ti to start preparing. Additionally..."

Huo Feng asked, "Additionally what?"

Yan Siyuan looked back at Huo Feng, eyes full of disdain, "If you can do it, why couldn’t I?"

"Bah~"

Huo Feng waved his hand, "All talk aren’t you! I think you’re just scared, afraid to act! You’re showing signs just like Sangzhi did when he accompanied for auditions."

Yan Siyuan insisted, "I’m not afraid."

Huo Feng asked, "Then tell , if you were to play a role like , do you have the confidence?"

Yan Siyuan instantly showed dislike, "You? I couldn’t play that."

Huo Feng clicked his tongue, "The actor’s cultivation huh!"

Yan Siyuan: "Bah..."

Huo Feng: "Oh, by the way, I’ve told your girlfriend about this."

Yan Siyuan: "..."
