CHAPTER 599: CHAPTER 599: SOUR GRAPES

At three o’clock on a Saturday afternoon, the nanny van arrived at the Starlight Entertainment Headquarters Building on time.

Ye Xian, wearing a mask and a hat, got out of the car while Zhou Lu held a small box of slender, bright red grapes, "Brother Ye, try these Beauty Finger grapes, my friend had them specially air-shipped from Japan, and shared some with me."

Ye Xian opened the slit in his mask, wide like a hippo, and Zhou Lu popped two into his mouth.

The skins were thin, the flesh tender, and they were sweet and delicious.

"Hmm, sweet! Xiao Lu, you have such discerning friends? Eating fruit that has to be specially flown in from abroad."

"Not really, it’s what the celebrity she follows demands. She can’t help it. Not every star is as easy to serve as you, Brother Ye, with no demands and even doting on your assistant!"

"That’s because you’re already excellent enough."

Ye Xian patted her on the head.

"Eh? Isn’t that Chu Yao?"

"Why is Chu Yao at our company? I really want to go over and ask for his autograph~ But he might not pay attention to us since he’s a big star, right?"

"What, don’t you know? Chu Yao’s Earth Film Group has been acquired by our company. He and his agent probably came over today to go through the signing process. From now on, Chu Yao and us are colleagues! Not just autographs, but collaboration might even happen!"

"Really? That’s great!"

When Ye Xian heard the familiar name, he was just about to turn around when someone bumped his shoulder.

"You’re walking without watching..."

Zhou Lu turned and scolded them, then saw... Chu, Chu Yao?

Seeing it was Wang Wei and Chu Yao, Ye Xian was not surprised.

"Ye Xian, congratulations, once again acquiring resources through improper means."

Wang Wei started with an insinuating tone, clearly picking a fight. Ye Xian brushed off his shoulder, took a grape from Zhou Lu’s hand, and put it in his mouth, "Xiao Lu, these foreign grapes are sour, better not to buy them anymore."

Zhou Lu nodded, "Mm-hmm!"

Her statement had a double meaning.

One was mocking them as artists from a small company acquired by Star Entertainment, and the other suggested they were extremely bitter about not getting resources.

Wang Wei was gnashing his teeth with anger, "What’s there to be proud of? To get endorsements, you’re willing to sell yourself, using all sorts of despicable methods. I used to think you were just a gay who couldn’t even woo men, but now I’ve realized you swing both ways. It’s disgusting!"

"What both ways? Don’t speak so unpleasantly," shrugged Ye Xian, "it’s something beautiful that everyone longs for, and everyone likes me. I’m troubled by it, too~ But you probably wouldn’t understand, because you’ll never experience these kinds of troubles in your life."

Seeing Wang Wei about to explode with pride, he burst out, "Fine, Ye Xian, we’ll see! I wonder how long you can keep this up!"

Once he lays the evidence in front of President Bo, he was afraid Ye Xian wouldn’t even have a place to cry!

Ye Xian: "Then you better live long enough, I’m afraid you won’t be able to wait."

"You..."

"Let’s get down to business, don’t waste your breath."

Chu Yao spoke up, and Wang Wei, furious, pointed at her and left, "Just wait, you just wait!"

Ye Xian: "Sure, I, Pleasant Goat, am always at your service."

"Hahaha~"

Zhou Lu covered her mouth and laughed, "Brother Ye, you are too good. You left him blue in the face. But you’re really bold, that’s Chu Yao’s agent. Generally, people in the circle don’t dare to mess with him."

"Sending someone to your doorstep to annoy you, it’s unbearable if I don’t retort."
