"You are already here. I thought it would take more ti. Co and sit here."
Ren said as he gestured towards Ying Yue who was slightly panting.
It looks like she had ran all the way to here as her hair was ssy and she was hurriedly trying to fix her clothes.
They were currently in an cafe, near Ren's company.
Ren has called Ying Yue here and she has ca here running after getting Ren's call.
"No, I thought you were busy. That's why I ca here running. I don't want to take too much of your ti. You must be busy since «Heirs» is just going to release."
Ying Yue said as she sat down.
She was clearly nervous while talking with Ren as she was continuously fidgeting her fingers.
It's been many days since they had last t or talked, Ying Yue was even thinking that Ren has given up the project.
That's why, when she received his call, she was really shocked.
"It's true that I was busy but I wanted to talk with you."
Ren was really busy with all the promotions going around but he still wanted to talk to Ying Yue, as it was about his next project.
That's why, he had managed so ti and ca here to et her today.
"Do you want to talk about «A born star»?"
Ying Yue said as she looked at Ren.
She knew that it was the only reason Ren would want to talk with her.
"Yes, it's about it. I wanted to talk your screenplay but have you found so investors for it?"
"No, not yet but I am searching for one. Then, what do you think about my project?"
Ying Yue hurriedly wanted to know what Ren thought of her screenplay as and whether if he is willing to do her movie or not.
Actually, she was not much optimistic about it. Her movie was without any investnts and Ren's company was against it.
She didn't wanted to think about it but she was pretty sure that Ren would reject her.
"You know, Director Ying, there are so roles that an actor must do. They are the roles that an actor will like more than anyone that they can go on any lengths to do it."
Ying Yue blinked her eyes when she heard that. She was not able to understand what Ren was saying but he continued.
"For those type of roles, an actor will not care much about the fees or if the movie has investnts or not."
"What?! You an!"
"Yes, Director Ying, I have said this before but I really liked your screenplay. Please let be the male lead of your movie."
Ying Yue widened her eyes when Ren said that. She stood up from her seat and stared at his face carefully.
There was no hesitation on his face, there was only confidence.
"But my project is without any investnts and your agency is clearly against it."
"Don't worry about my agency. I will surely convince them."
Ren has already thought about talking with the CEO about it. He also has a plan to convince her.
"And as for investnts, don't worry about them."
"That ans, there is a company willing to invest in my movie."
Ren shook his head when Ying Yue said that. He looked outside the window and said while glancing at the people walking the streets.
"We will not look for investnts, they will look for us."
At that ti, Ying Yue was still unaware of the plan brewing in Ren's mind.

"So, Director Lu rejected Ren."
CEO Xu said with a small laugh.
It was no small matter but she was treating it like a joke.
"Yes, CEO, it's not a small matter. He was even scolding Ren on the phone, saying that he will not stay in the industry for long with his behaviour."
"That's weird."
"Yes, it's really weird. Xin Ren is one of our most well behaved stars."
Director Kang said as he put her hand on her lips.
"Did sothing happened? What did Ren said about it."
"I asked him but he said that he don't know anything about it."
"Really?"
"Yes."
A smile grew on CEO Xu's lips when she heard that. She smiled cunningly as she leaned against her leather chair.
"That kid, he's hiding sothing."
"You also think like that. Then, do we ask Ren about it more strictly."
"No, let's think like this matter never happened. That Director Lu is really shrewd, I don't know about what would have happened but let's just drop the matter."
"You are really lenient on Ren."
Director Kang said as she sighed.
CEO Xu laughed when she heard that.
"Do you really think that?"
"Yes, there are even rumours that you two are in so sort of relationship, about how he had done sexual favours for you."
CEO Xu laughed more loudly than before and asked.
"Are there really those type of rumours in the company?"
"Yes and it's only getting worse."
"What's his age?"
"Huh??"
"What's Xin Ren's age?"
"I think he's 21 this year."
"He's young. Maybe I would consider it."
"CEO!!"
When Director Kang shouted with a flustered expression, CEO Xu finally stopped with her jokes.
"I was just kidding."
"CEO, please don't joke like that."
"Ok, so what about Ren's next project?"
Director Kang sighed once again and replied.
"That's the topic I wanted to talk with you. He has a project he wanted to do."
"What sort of project it is?"
CEO Xu's smile grew interested when she heard that.
"It's a musical drama and it's one without any investors."
"A musical drama! It's quite the peculiar choice and it has no investnts."
"Yes, and the director is a rookie. I want him to stop and choose another project but he was hell bent on it."
"He liked it that much."
"Yes, it looks like he really liked the screenplay but we can't go ahead as there are no investnts."
Going with a movie with no investnts was just like going to a battleground with no weapons.
Director Kang wanted Ren to know it.
"I think he will try to barge into your office. He can already be considered an expert in it. What will you do then, CEO Xu."
"You think like that, huh!"
CEO Xu said as she fell into thoughts.
After a while, she opened her mouth and asked.
"«Heirs» is releasing soon, right?"
"Yes, it will release next week."
"Don't let him enter my office till then."
"What about after that?"
Director Kang asked with a confused expression.
"It will depend on the performance of «Heirs». Let's see if he can work accordion to my expectations."
