Chapter 271 Encountering a Stunning Beauty
Chapter 271 Encountering a Stunning Beauty
Su Mingyue is the most obvious example.
Because she had no fan base, but was arrogant and relied on the system and the support of others, she thought she could become famous overnight through this show, but unexpectedly, she was the least famous one in the show.
This caused her a great deal of psychological distress, so even though she gained some fans, she wasn't as happy as she had imagined.
Lin Yan is much better than Su Mingyue.
After all, she is already a mature streamer, and her mental resilience is much stronger in all aspects.
Moreover, her fan base has grown significantly since before she appeared on the show, so she should just be content with what she has.
Qin Huaiyu was not entirely satisfied either.
Although his status as a member of the Qin family, a wealthy and powerful clan, attracted many fans, the number of fans he actually had was far less than he had anticipated.
However, besides attributing this to his fans' lack of taste, he also harbored some resentment towards Xu Yanxin.
He felt that if Xu Yanxin could give him enough support to make him shine on variety shows using the Qin family's name, things would definitely be much better than they are now.
Although he harbored resentment in his heart, he dared not show it too obviously.
He only subtly expressed his thoughts when he was alone with Xu Yanxin.
Moreover, aside from directly expressing his dissatisfaction to Xu Yanxin, he usually conveyed his needs and thoughts through his mother, who was also the Qin family's nanny.
After so many years of effort, it can be said that Xu Yanxin has been successfully brainwashed and is very close to them.
I believe that once he marries Xu Yanxin, he will be able to completely control her.
This made him feel that he was becoming more and more able to obtain the Qin Group.
Thinking of Xu Yanxin's father, who loved her but was rarely home, traveling between China and abroad, Qin Huaiyu felt only irony.
What's the use of making so much money? You don't even realize your house is about to be robbed.
Fortunately, he had his mother who had planned for him since he was a child.
He became childhood sweethearts with the daughter of a nanny, and now they are boyfriend and girlfriend, while his nanny mother has become the most trusted person in the daughter of the Qin family.
Therefore, one's background cannot determine everything.
What kind of person you want to become is linked to your efforts after birth, but everyone makes those efforts in different ways.
Qin Huaiyu never felt there was anything wrong with his way of working hard. It would be foolish not to take a shortcut if there was one, and the fact that he was able to find this shortcut was his skill.
Qin Huaiyu was quite confident about Xu Yanxin's complete obedience to him.
Who could blame him? He was Xu Yanxin's best friend since childhood, her only male best friend when they grew up, and now he's her boyfriend.
If Xu Yanxin isn't good to him, who else can she be good to? If she doesn't listen to him, whose words can she listen to?
When Yuan Yangyang and Yuan Si'an returned to the Yuan family home after finishing filming the variety show, it was already very late.
After a quick wash, they went straight to bed and slept soundly.
When Yuan Yangyang woke up, it was already noon the next day.
To her surprise, besides her parents and fifth brother, her second brother, Yuan Sixiao, was also at home.
"Second brother, what are you doing at home?" Yuan Yangyang asked.
"You heartless little thing, of course it's because I miss you."
Yuan Sixiao flicked Yuan Yangyang's forehead without hesitation, then leaned back on the sofa, looked her up and down, and gave his evaluation.
"Why do you look thinner and darker?"
Yuan Yangyang's face immediately darkened, and her good mood vanished instantly.
I harbored a great deal of resentment towards Director Wang.
Working in the fields under the sun every day, it's no wonder they get tanned. As for being thin, it's no wonder they're thin, given how tiring and strenuous the work is.
She doesn't mind being thinner, but she really can't accept being this dark-skinned.
She immediately decided to include skin whitening in her daily routine.
Skin whitening should be a subtle and gradual process that permeates every aspect of life; we can't slack off for a moment.
She got tanned because she was too tired and relaxed during the days she was on the show, and it was visibly tanned.
As a woman who values appearance, this is absolutely unacceptable.
However, considering that her second brother came back specifically to see her, she can postpone her skin whitening project until later and spend more time with her parents and second brother now.
Yuan Yangyang was eating fruit and scrolling through her phone on the sofa when Yuan Sixiao came over.
"Second brother, what are you doing?" Yuan Yangyang asked first.
She always felt that her second brother was waiting for her at home, and that it wasn't just because he missed her.
Sure enough, Yuan Sixiao asked, "Yangyang, are you interested in singing?"
Yuan Yangyang picked up a piece of cantaloupe and started chewing it with a gusto, looking at Yuan Sixiao without saying a word for a moment.
Then Yuan Sixiao continued, "I recently composed two more pieces that I think are very suitable for you, so I was thinking of asking if you would be interested in collaborating on one and seeing how it goes."
"But I've never asked you if you can sing."
If you're truly tone-deaf, then forget it.
When Yuan Sixiao was creating these two songs, the image in his mind was Yuan Yangyang, so he felt that he was a perfect match for her.
But then he suddenly realized that he had never heard Yuan Yangyang sing before. If she was really tone-deaf or had poor singing skills, then he shouldn't ruin his song.
After all, his sister will always be his sister, but if this piece of music is ruined, it will be truly ruined and cannot be made up for.
Looking at her second brother's serious expression, Yuan Yangyang felt a lump in her throat. She felt that her second brother was not there to cooperate with her, but rather to annoy her. Is this how you talk about cooperation?
She was lucky to be the other party's younger sister, otherwise they would have definitely become enemies.
She originally thought that although her second brother was unruly, he was also a person with high emotional intelligence. However, she did not expect that his seriousness about song creation had reached the point of attacking indiscriminately without distinguishing friend from foe.
One can imagine how many people in the entertainment industry he hurt because of his seriousness about music, and how many enemies and adversaries he made for himself.
Yuan Yangyang's head was spinning just thinking about it.
Looking at Yuan Sixiao, he asked sincerely, "Second Brother, do you have any friends in the industry?"
Yuan Sixiao: "I'm going there to sing and create music. What would I need friends for? Can they help me write songs? Or can they help me find inspiration?"
Yuan Yangyang was speechless, with a feeling that she had known all along.
She then asked, "Do you have many enemies in the industry? The kind who just don't like you and cause you trouble for no reason?"
Yuan Sixiao: "It's because your second brother is too outstanding that it's normal for others to dislike me."
Yuan Sixiao blew on his bangs that were covering his eyebrows, tilted his head back in what he thought was a handsome gesture, and boasted.
Yuan Yangyang:......
Well, that's certainly true.
As the saying goes, if you reach a certain height, you will be surrounded by friends; if you are as humble as dust, even if you try your best to please others, all those who come around you will be dissatisfied with you.
Forget it, let nature take its course. Anyway, Second Brother isn't stupid. If someone really schemes against him, he should be able to handle it.
Right?
Yuan Yangyang tried to comfort herself.
Her second brother came to see her for another reason.
That means his contract has expired, but he hasn't signed with any company yet, he said.
"Yuan Yangyang, how about we start an entertainment company together?"
Yuan Sixiao's first words startled Yuan Yangyang, causing her to spit out the water in her mouth.
This news is really too explosive. There was no indication of it before. Who would have thought that my second brother would quietly start his own company and become his own boss?
Yuan Yangyang had considered this idea before, but she had always been too busy to find the time.
Moreover, it's best to let things happen naturally; she currently lacks both connections and resources.
To start a company, you need everything except money.
However, her second brother gave her a hint: if she could bring all her brothers in as investors, wouldn't she have all the existing connections and resources?
Moreover, she hadn't had time to visit the office building that her father had given her before.
If we use that place as the company's headquarters, it shouldn't be too bad.
Yuan Yangyang suddenly remembered that she had once thought about opening a matchmaking center.
Let those single people on Weibo who are anxious every day about not being able to find a girlfriend or boyfriend contribute their own efforts.
But later, too many things came up, and the plan was abandoned.
Looking back now, it seems she missed out on a lot of money, but alas, her energy was limited, and she couldn't do it.
Putting everything else aside, just take the office building that Yuan's father gave her, she hasn't had time to check it out yet.
She happens to be free these days, so she can include this matter in her schedule.
The thought flashed through her mind in an instant, and then Yuan Yangyang looked at her second brother in front of her like a wolf eyeing a rabbit.
With his eyes shining, he tried his best to persuade, "Second brother, I think your suggestion is particularly good, but in addition to the music company, how about we open an entertainment company that integrates music and film and bring Fifth brother over as well? What do you think?"
Then bring your agents, partners, and promising juniors into the company to grow it bigger and stronger. What do you think?
Whether Yuan Yangyang convinced the other party is unknown, but she said she was already very excited.
Yuan Sixiao looked at the energetic Yuan Yangyang and found it quite strange.
"Yangyang, I didn't realize you had such exceptional persuasive skills. It's such a waste of your talent to just be an actor in the entertainment industry. You'd be better suited to be a manager and help artists secure roles."
Yuan Sixiao offered his honest commentary.
Yuan Yangyang quickly waved her hand, indicating that she had no interest in this.
In her view, an agent is someone who has to worry about a million people but only gets paid one salary.
She has to manage everything herself, from eating and drinking to toileting, big and small matters. She feels that if she works as an agent for a year, she will age ten years.
On the contrary, being an artist is quite the opposite.
Countless people serve one artist, while she only needs to be a puppet, doing whatever others tell her to do, without having to think or use her brain. How wonderful!
Of course, this is on the premise that she is her own boss, that she can make her own decisions, that all work is based on her willingness and happiness, and that she can quit at any time if she is not satisfied, without being constrained.
If it were just working for someone else's company as a slave or an entertainer, that would be one thing, but being your own boss, being an entertainer, and hiring a lot of people to serve you—just thinking about it makes me incredibly happy.
Yuan Yangyang's imagined scene was too wonderful, and before she knew it, she was laughing foolishly at the air.
Yuan Sixiao touched Yuan Yangyang's forehead and muttered to himself, "She doesn't have a fever, so why is she talking nonsense?"
"Could it be that filming the show was too tiring? That means his physical condition isn't good either. He couldn't even handle it after only a week?"
Yuan Sixiao realized he had discovered a big problem, so he immediately put on a serious face, shattering Yuan Yangyang's fantasies, and said to her with a solemn expression.
"Your physique is too poor. If you want to make money, you need to be in good health. Starting tomorrow, you'll start exercising with me every day!"
When I'm not home, I'll have your other brothers take over my job and supervise you.
Even water dripping on a stone can wear it away; don't give up!
Yuan Yangyang nodded in agreement, thinking that there was no harm in getting some exercise, but she changed her mind the next day.
Because the first thing Yuan Sixiao said to her when he saw her that morning was, "Let's run five kilometers to warm up!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yangyang's legs immediately went weak.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Sixiao, who usually seemed wild and unruly, became so serious when he got down to business.
Even though she had said she was tired and wanted to rest, the other person just grabbed her arm and ran forward, not giving her a chance to rest at all, let alone slack off.
They actually took her for five kilometers, and after running all the way, Yuan Yangyang felt like her legs weren't even legs anymore.
Whether it was spring water from the Seine or not, I don't know, but it had already softened into a puddle of mud.
However, the two didn't come away empty-handed, because during their run, they were approached by a beautiful woman.
Moreover, she is a stunningly beautiful woman with big eyes, a high nose, and curly hair.
The beautiful woman was clearly interested in the two of them, and she was also very fit. After meeting them, she ran alongside them and still had the energy to chat with them.
At first, Yuan Yangyang had the energy to respond to a few words, but later all that was left was the sound of her panting heavily, as if she didn't want to say a word more.
Her second brother would chime in when he was happy, but would ignore him when he was not.
So along the way, Yuan Yangyang still couldn't figure out whether this beautiful woman was after her or her second brother.
But there's no rush. Time will tell. She has plenty of time, though.
The two of them ran around until they were covered in sweat. After returning home, Yuan Yangyang took a shower and then went downstairs to eat.
She didn't know if it was because she had been away from home for a week, or because she was starving after running five kilometers early in the morning, but in any case, she thought today's breakfast was especially fragrant and delicious.
