Chapter 905: 904. Deal closed!
Sister Tang Shu’s brother is a force to be reckoned with, but what about that arrogant-looking brat next to him?
How co he’s just as incredible?!
Ren Xiazhi always felt that he had made great progress after the self-assessnt, but reality told him it still wasn’t enough, far from enough.
It’s enough to break one’s heart.
“Shut up! I can tell you’re gloating. Who do you think you’re looking down on, kid?”
“Hey! Can’t beat physically, so now we’re resorting to a war of words? You’ve really got so nerve—”
The thorny Qu Junfeng has never been the one to suffer silently; he’s the boss of Imperial City No.1 Middle School since he was young, and that was earned through genuine hard fights. His seemingly harmless deanor in Palm Pavilion is only because Tang Shu is pressuring him, but there’s no need to hide his true nature with anyone else.
Especially when that soone else can’t beat him, right?
Qu Junfeng felt like he was reaching the peak of his life and was laughing hysterically inside, “If you call big bro since you’re younger than … um… I might consider looking out for you in the future.”
“Ha! I am indeed younger than you, but I’m already a student at Imperial University, high, school, student!”
“….”
The previously uproarious Qu Junfeng stiffened up completely, his face dropping from the heavens to the ground in a mix of sourness and exhilaration.
Not far away, Xu Qianyun who was exercising also turned her head back in surprise. Though her reaction wasn’t as extre as Qu Junfeng’s, the look she gave Ren Xiazhi was rather aningful.
“I rember you’re fifteen this year?”
“Hmm,” the young boy perked up proudly, “I skipped grades in both junior high and high school, got into Imperial University last year, and won a few national championships in computer modeling competitions.”
“….”
The two high school students who recently felt their grades were slowly climbing up imdiately fell silent.
Turns out he’s a little genius. No wonder he’s not physically active; all his IQ went to his brain.

When everyone is walking on the streets of June, they can truly feel the arrival of sumr.
By late June, the outdoor temperature in Imperial City approaches 30 degrees Celsius, and all the young n and won have put on their cool sumr clothes, sparking a sales boom of COOL sumr attire.
After leaving the “Typhoon” drama crew, Tang Shu took Yang Tiantian’s car to go to Starshine dia, to et the top agent who had been wanting to see her.
As expected, Luo Lin doesn’t look too pleased, “You’re seriously hard to get a hold of.”
She feels like this artist has no connection with Starshine dia at all, not having seen her in the company throughout June, which is quite sothing.
Tang Shu took out a small jar from her backpack and handed it over, “Pickled bitter lon for cooling down, no need to thank .”
Yang Tiantian, sensing the increasingly frosty air, silently stepped back, sighing to himself that this fan indeed arrived at the right mont.
“…”
Luo Lin almost died of anger from the small gift, her temper telling her she should slap the jar onto the other’s face, but her reason told her she couldn’t.
“Co inside, we need to have a good talk, we must!”
Tang Shu hurriedly followed, very cooperative, but still had a suggestion to make:
“Do you really not need to hire a professional manager? This can’t go on, a good boss should know how to use talent wisely, instead of working themselves to death like a dog.”
“Shut up!”
“…”
Tang Shu promptly shut her mouth and sat quietly in Luo Lin’s office, ready to listen to guidance from her heartfelt sister.
While rubbing her forehead, which throbbed with annoyance, Luo Lin passed a stack of docunts across the desk.
“These are so of the company’s recent comrcial endorsents; take a look, and if there’s no issue, sign off on them.”
Tang Shu took them and quickly flipped through, speed-reading five business contracts. Normally for small projects, her signature wouldn’t be needed, but the ones in her hands were sowhat different.
“Jiang Yan and Xiao Rui’s worth has gotten this high already?”
She was a bit shocked to see the endorsent fees at 5 million on the contract; after all, when she signed with the COOL brand, the number had been around the sa.
“Yes, those two have been quite impressive. Even though they entered the industry not long ago, their acting skills are good, and their overall abilities stand out in the circle. Of course, their rapid growth owes a lot to the roles you’ve introduced them to.”
Starshine dia hasn’t been established for long, and Jiang Yan and Xiao Rui entered the industry a few months after Tang Shu, but there’s no denying that they are indeed talented.
In this circle, it takes excellence and extraordinary luck to make a person successful.
Luckily, they t Tang Shu.
Luo Lin’s gaze held a trace of envy as she looked at her, “Your connections are really too good. Every ti you join a different crew, you end up making a bunch of friends, each one more impressive than the last.”
To be honest, as their agent, she hardly had to do anything for Jiang Yan and Xiao Rui; many of the film and TV roles ca from Tang Shu’s recomndations, and they had nothing to do with her.
This sense of defeat was too familiar, so familiar it made her heart flutter.
More than once, Luo Lin had co to feel quite useless; if her psychological resilience weren’t strong, she might have been knocked down by now.
Tang Shu signed off on the last docunt and passed the contracts back.
“Don’t just thank . If it wasn’t for their own efforts, people like Director Qi and Director Xie wouldn’t have cast them.”
Being able to secure opportunities for Starshine dia’s artists is due to the drama groups she joined. Do you think participating in a drama group only leads to one group chat? That’s too simple a thought. For the “Corridor Pavilion” drama alone, there were no fewer than 10 groups—everyone can always find so quirky reason to start a group and then drag in acquaintances.
Whenever soone is short-staffed on work, they just shout out in the group, and Tang Shu naturally recomnds people.
“So it’s true that in this circle, connections are most important.”
Luo Lin was quite accurate in this understanding, “Another thing, Director Qi has inford , ‘Easy Rule Jianghu 2’ was edited last month and will be sent for review at the end of this month. The production crew intends to use this cody film to kick off the sumr season.”
“So it’s going to premiere around August?”
“Roughly, which ans by July we’ll enter the promotional period. Your schedule…”
Talking about this little ancestor’s schedule made Luo Lin’s headache worsen.
After pondering for a mont, Tang Shu said, “No problem. The filming for ‘Typhoon’ is nearing its end. As long as you don’t arrange other TV drama shootings for , I’ll coordinate with the crew’s promotional activities.”
She was the lead actress after all.
“Deal!”
After Luo Lin agreed, she still felt her reaction was a bit incredible, as if sothing was a bit off. Had there ever been a ti when she was this happy not to arrange work for an artist… What was this all about?
