Chapter 1158: That Person is in the Light
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The director thought that Xia Wanyuan was just saying it casually because she was angry at YG Studio. What he did not expect was that
Xia Wanyuan really did it. She called Shen Qian over that day and arranged this mission for him.
“Okay, CEO Xia. I’ll do it immediately.” Shen Qian basically accepted Xia Wanyuan’s instructions without any resistance.
Shen Qian was efficient and summoned the relevant people for a meeting overnight. The next morning, he tidied up the studio’s structure and placed it in front of Xia Wanyuan.
“CEO Xia, our studio is already in place, and there’s no problem with the funds. We just lack people to move in.”
Speaking of personnel, Shen Qian was a little worried. In fact, venue funds were not a problem for the current Xiafeng Group.
Only talent and skills were the biggest problems.
“You’re in charge of contacting famous international studios and see if you can poach some people. High salaries are not a problem. The important thing is to do things well.”
“No problem.” Shen Qian had studied at a university in America back then. He knew many big shots in America’s industry. Now, he could start from these threads and see if he could find an opportunity.
“Find a mature team first, then post a recruitment notice. As long as they’re capable, recruit them for training.”
“Okay.”
Soon, the Xiafeng Group posted recruitment notices on various websites.
Due to Xia Wanyuan’s high popularity, even the company she controlled received attention. When the recruitment announcement of the Xiafeng Group was released, everyone looked at the pile of special effects artists and a series of research and development talents and was a little puzzled.
[Why are you hiring these? When did the Xiafeng Group change to the film industry?]
[ Can’t I beg Xia Wanyuan to find an international big-name studio to do special effects? Why must she find someone to do it herself? Our country’s special effects are as rotten as shit. Don’t waste time, okay? ]
[I’m cracking. The “Eldest Princess” I’ve been looking forward to for so long won’t have cheap special effects, right? No!! Find YG Studio!! They specialize in special effects for international blockbusters.]
The netizens were all worried about the post-production of “Eldest Princess”. However, offline, the recruitment event of the Xiafeng Group had already begun.
After the cooperation with the Jun Corporation and Shen Qian’s capable leader, the Xiafeng Group could already be considered one of the top companies in China.
The benefits and treatment of the corporation were good, and many people wanted to work here. However, the standards here were very strict, and ordinary freshmen rarely had the chance to enter.
This time was different. There were two levels of recruitment. One was mature technicians, and the other was inexperienced students who met the requirements.
Instantly, a large number of talents surged towards the Xiafeng Group. The special effects industry that was not valued in the past had become popular.
At Qing University, Xia Wanyuan had just finished a class. The students walked out one after another. Feng Wuyou, who was in the last row, leaned towards Xia Wanyuan.
“Beauty, do you want to eat together later?”
Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “I want to go back and rest today.”
The Xiafeng Group had a good reputation and good benefits. There were too many people participating in the registration these few days. After Shen Qian scanned the list, he handed it over. Xia Wanyuan had been busy recruiting these few days and was really tired.
“Alright then.” Although Feng Wuyou felt regretful, her heart ached when she saw Xia Wanyuan frown slightly. “Then rest well.”
“Mm.”
Xia Wanyuan put away her things and was about to leave when she looked up and saw Jun Shiling standing at the door. She smiled. “Why are you here?”
Jun Shiling walked over to help Xia Wanyuan carry her bag. “You’ve worked hard. I’ll pick you up. Let’s go.”
“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan waved at Feng Wuyou and left with Jun Shiling.
Feng Wuyou sized up Jun Shiling from behind.
He was quite handsome, but he looked too cold. Tsk, I can’t stand this type anyway, no matter how handsome he is.?
Xia Wanyuan’s class was really too interesting. Feng Wuyou, who had become famous under the American culture, was actually inexplicably interested in those traditional people and things in China.
She knew that there was an antique street at the back door of the Qing University. Coincidentally, she had heard Xia Wanyuan talk about the contents of brush, ink, paper, and inkstone during class. She was very interested, so she walked to the back door alone.
The Qing University campus was very large. Feng Wuyou walked for nearly half an hour before reaching the back door. At this moment, the sky had already darkened and the street lamps were lit on both sides of the street.
The antique street sold everything. Feng Wuyou bought a small lantern and stopped at the various vendors. Unknowingly, she had a large pile of things in his hand.
“This fan is so beautiful.” Feng Wuyou looked around curiously and glanced at the fan sold by a small merchant at the corner. There were beautiful landscape paintings and calligraphy words on the fan.
“Boss, how much is this?”
“Five dollars.” The boss was extremely enthusiastic when he saw that business had arrived.
“Okay!” Feng Wuyou nodded and went to pay. In the end, after flipping through it three or four times, he realized that his pocket was already empty.
She looked at the boss helplessly. “Can I swipe my card?”
“No, you can also choose to pay with your phone.”
“But I don’t have a phone to pay.” Feng Wuyou looked at the fan eagerly. Ever since she returned to China, she had always used Xuan Sheng’s card to swipe it. She had never used a phone to pay.
“Then there’s no other way.” The boss looked at Feng Wuyou with a complicated expression.?She’s dressed so beautifully. Can’t she pay with her phone? Is she lying??
Hmph, if you don’t want to buy it, so be it. You even found an excuse to lie. You’re too much.?
“Alright.” Feng Wuyou reluctantly placed the fan on the stall. Before she left, she even took a few glances at it. The magpie on it was so cute. I like the furry one so much.?
As she looked at the fan and walked forward, she bumped into someone.
“Aiya, I’m sorry, you didn’t…” Feng Wuyou hurriedly turned around and apologized. Before she could finish speaking, she saw the man in front of her and swallowed the rest of her words.
The man in front of her was very handsome. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his eyes behind the glasses were smiling. The corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and his eyes were as bright as stars.
“It’s okay,” the man said.
Feng Wuyou was still stunned by the beauty attack. The man smiled and waved his wrist in front of her. “Miss?”
“Huh? Oh!” Feng Wuyou reacted and her ears turned red. “I’m sorry.”
With that, she took a step back and prepared to let the man leave first.
The man took a step and suddenly seemed to see the wooden peace charm in her hand. His eyes flickered. “Miss, is your surname Chu?”
Feng Wuyou’s eyes widened slightly. “No, my surname is Feng.”
Puzzlement flashed across the man’s eyes. “Then why is the word ‘Chu’ on your Safety Talisman?”
After his reminder, Feng Wuyou looked at the wooden peace charm in her hand. “I took the wrong one!!!”
She recalled that she must have taken the wrong surname when she left in a hurry.
“How about this?” The man narrowed his eyes behind his glasses. “My surname is Chu. How about you sell this to me for four yuan?”
Feng Wuyou looked at the sign in her hand and simply handed it to the handsome man in front of her. “No problem.”
The man took out five yuan from his pocket and handed it to Feng Wuyou. “Just give me one dollar.”
Feng Wuyou looked troubled. “I don’t have any money. Why don’t you just lend me a dollar in cash and I’ll return you one on WeChat?”
The man hesitated. “Alright then.”
Feng Wuyou took the money and handed the wooden peace talisman to the handsome man in front of him.
Then, she took five yuan and bought the fan that she could not buy.
Feng Wuyou happily turned around with the fan and saw that the handsome man had just left.
He was wearing a white sweater and a black coat. His side profile with glasses looked deep and three-dimensional.
For a moment, Feng Wuyou felt that she had met a comic character that had walked into reality.
Seeing that the handsome man she could only meet in comics was about to leave, Feng Wuyou’s heart skipped a beat and she dragged her things forward.
“I haven’t added you on WeChat. Come, let’s add each other on WeChat.”
The man took out his phone and handed it to Feng Wuyou.
After scanning the code, Feng Wuyou was about to fill in the name for him. “What’s your name?”
“Chu Yi,” the man said calmly.
“Huh?!” Feng Wuyou suddenly looked up with shock in her eyes.
“Is there a problem?” The man seemed confused by her reaction.
Feng Wuyou waved her hand. “It’s nothing.”
There were more than a billion people in China, so it was normal for them to have the same name. Such a handsome young man was definitely not my unlucky fiancé who was mining.?
“What’s your name?” The man began to set a note for Feng Wuyou.
“Feng Wuyou.” Feng Wuyou looked up and smiled at Chu Yi with a row of silver teeth. “Meaning carefree and worry-less.”
The corners of Chu Yi’s lips curled up slightly. “What a good name.”
Feng Wuyou was attacked by Chu Yi’s beauty at a close distance. She looked at Chu Yi’s face without blinking, her heart roaring crazily.
So handsome! Isn’t this the refined, handsome, and gentle handsome man in the comic!?
Looking at Chu Yi’s handsome face, Feng Wuyou’s heart skipped a beat.
“Um, are you here to study?”
Chu Yi glanced at the entrance of Qing University. “I finished my undergraduate studies here.”
“Then are you a graduate student now?” Before Chu Yi could finish speaking, Feng Wuyou had already automatically imagined a background with high quality and education for Chu Yi.
Looking at Feng Wuyou’s beautiful face, Chu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. “Mm.”
Feng Wuyou was even more excited.?Wow, a little fresh meat.?She coughed twice. “Um, I’m very familiar with the teachers here. If you have any questions, you can look for me.”
“Okay.” Chu Yi smiled. “Then, thank you, Sister.”
Feng Wuyou almost froze when he heard her call him sister. She reached out and patted Chu Yi’s shoulder. “Okay, okay. Um, you’ve already called me sister. Have you eaten?”
Chu Yi’s eyes flickered and he looked at Feng Wuyou’s hand on his shoulder. “No.”
“Then let me treat you. Let’s go! Take it as returning your one-dollar favor!”
“Okay.” Chu Yi lowered his eyes to hide the smile in them. He reached out and took the things from Feng Wuyou. “I’ll help you carry them.”
Feng Wuyou’s evaluation of Chu Yi increased again.
Look, what did I mean by a high-quality young man from the new era? He was handsome and sensible. He was simply too to my liking.
Thinking of this, Feng Wuyou turned to look at Chu Yi and said calmly, “Um, the weather is so good today. Why didn’t you go out for a walk with your girlfriend?”
The corners of Chu Yi’s lips curled up slightly. “I don’t have a girlfriend.”
“Are you married, then?”
Chu Yi paused. “Not yet.”
“Oh, oh.” Feng Wuyou was relieved.?He was not married and did not have a girlfriend, which meant that he was still single.?
Along the way, Chu Yi was very cooperative and was asked all sorts of information by Feng Wuyou.
After the meal, Feng Wuyou had already unilaterally marked Chu Yi as a focus to nurture.
Such a good-looking boy who knew how to read and had a good personality, and even had the same taste as me, was simply rare in the world, okay?!?
Feng Wuyou decided that she wanted to provide for him!!
Just like those socialites!!?
Hence, after the meal, when it was time to pay, the waiter brought the bill over. “Hello, the total cost is 2,800 yuan. Who can settle the bill?”
Before Chu Yi could speak, Feng Wuyou already looked like a financier. She waved her hand. “I’ll do it!”
Chu Yi’s eyes flickered and he adjusted his glasses. “Then you can do it.”
Feng Wuyou paid the bill happily and followed Chu Yi out.
She glanced at Chu Yi. “Um…”
“Mm?”
“I grew up in America.”
“Mm.” Chu Yi nodded. “So?”
“You know that Americans are more direct, right?”
Chu Yi suppressed his smile.
“Mm.”
“That’s right.” Feng Wuyou swayed crazily between his face and the handsome man. “That’s right. Are you willing to let me provide for you?”
It was a pity not to pull such a handsome man away, but she also knew that she would be captured by the Feng family for marriage sooner or later.
Although she had been resisting, she knew very well that she had only delayed some time by coming to China.
In a little while more, the Feng family would definitely find her. At that time, she would really not be able to escape.
Among all the people she had seen, Chu Yi was the one that moved her the most.
Anyway, she only had a few days left. Feng Wuyou went all out.?If I could see a handsome man for a day more, so be it!?
Chu Yi was clearly a little surprised by Feng Wuyou’s words. He raised his eyebrows slightly. “Provide?” There was confusion and an imperceptible danger in his voice.
Although Feng Wuyou looked like she was used to seeing brothels, she was actually panicking.
She regretted it a little when she said it.
She did not know if she should blame the glass of fruit wine on the table for being too intoxicating or if she should blame the face of Chu Yi in front of her for being too to her liking, making her lose her mind for a moment.
Feng Wuyou waved her hand. “Haha, I was just joking. Don’t take it to heart. I’m usually…”
However, before Feng Wuyou could finish speaking, Chu Yi took off his glasses. His starry eyes were smiling.
“Sure.”
