n the eyes of those big families in Beijing.”Cao Kong was stunned for a moment, but he silently acknowledged what the fat man said. The fat man was right, the prominent families in Yanjing didn't look...Director Zhang was supposed to hold an idol drama press conference tonight. All media personnel had been contacted, the time and location had been set long ago, but when it was time, Director Zhang still hadn't arrived.

Those reporters were in a panic. Without Director Zhang present, how could they possibly hold the press conference They rushed backstage to inquire about his whereabouts. When they learned that Director Zhang was there, they swarmed him. But to their surprise, he declined their invitation. He said he would wait for a response from a super rookie before attending the meeting.

These media workers couldn't help but wonder, what kind of newcomer could be so favored by Director Zhang

Now that they saw Ye Fan coming out, one by one they rushed forward, swarming around him constantly, taking pictures of him, and some even started conducting interviews.

Ye Fan completely ignored these media personnel. He walked straight to director Zhang Da, smiled apologetically at him, and said, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting. I think I can agree to your request, but it might be six months later. Of course, if you're willing to wait."

Ye Fan knew that these filming matters were ever-changing, mainly based on market trends. No one could say for sure what it would be like in six months.

If Director Zhang agreed to himself, he was actually taking a huge risk.

But when Director Zhang heard Ye Fan's words, a trace of a smile finally appeared on his face, which had been tightly clenched. Without any hesitation, he readily said: "No problem, you are the super newcomer I have in mind. I see your potential, and I am willing to wait for half a year."

For a moment, countless cheers and applause erupted, accompanied by flashing lights that never stopped. Some people were already busily scribbling away, ready to post Zhang's words from the director's just-concluded speech on the front pages of all major newspapers and magazines.

Ye Fan was speechless. This Zhang Da director, despite his age, spoke so mushily. Ye Fan really couldn't stand it.

After the matter was settled, Director Zhang walked away contentedly. Of course, the reporters who had been circling incessantly also withdrew like a tide.

Looking at their distant figures, Ye Fan suddenly felt that being a public figure was really tiring. He had to be so hypocritical every day, and he disliked living this way in his heart.

I still prefer those days with no schedule or restraints, coming whenever I want and leaving whenever I want, letting my imagination run wild and making the whole world my home.

For example, the fat guy, he was a wandering knight errant, who knows how that little fatty is doing now.

Jiang Dawei in the corner watched Zhang, the director, leave with his eyes wide. He didn't even glance at Jiang as he walked away.

Jiang Dabei's heart was already at the bottom of despair. Didn't Director Zhang say that his time was tight Why could he have so many people wait with him for Ye Fan's reply

And yet, there was no time to assess oneself. Could it be that in his eyes, one truly wasn't worth much

Chiang Ta Wei's heart was ashen, perhaps he was not suited to the life in the entertainment industry after all.

He took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, and he turned his body quietly toward the direction of the hall entrance.

"Hey, stop right there," a woman's crisp voice brought Chiang Tawei to a halt. Then, everyone saw a beautiful figure quickly step forward. She stopped between Chiang Tawei and Yang, and with a smile, she said, "Teacher Chiang, where are you going"

Jiang Dawei looked at this woman with a blooming smile, his heart couldn't help but tremble. He knew that this woman was called Jiang Xue and called Ye Fan "Master".

Jiang Dawei said a little awkwardly, "I'll go to the restroom."

"Is that so The bathroom is in that direction, why are you walking towards the door" Jiang Xue, the little girl, laughed mischievously.

"I," Chiang Ta-wei, was a bit tongue-tied.

"You wouldn't forget what you just said and want to leave, would you" Jiang Xue suddenly exclaimed in surprise, but she quickly shook her head, denying her own words. "No no, you are the teacher here, how could you go back on your word I must have misunderstood you, right Mr. Jiang"

Throughout the entire time, Jiang Xue always had a kind smile on her face, like being blown by spring wind, making people feel comfortable just by looking at it. But now, this angelic smile, in Jiang Dawei's eyes, was so ferocious, so unsettling.

He was speechless at Jiang Xue's words. Yes, he was the teacher here after all; he couldn't go back on his word, especially since he had just made a bet with Ye Fan in front of so many people. Could he possibly break his promise

But could I really call him Grandpa in front of so many people Especially in front of Su Qin, how could I ever hold my head up and face anyone again

His face was twisted in agony, burning with humiliation. He'd rather Ye Fan had punched him in the face or beaten him up than endure this public shaming a hundredfold.

It's just that it seems like all of this is self-inflicted. Didn't he come to humiliate Ye Fan in the first place Now he's being humiliated himself, who can blame anyone else

“Fine, my name is” Jiang Dabei gritted his teeth. He was humiliated today, but he would get revenge a hundredfold later! He swore that he wouldn't let Ye Fan off the hook for this humiliation. Jiang Dabei felt ashamed of himself.

Jiang Dawei took a deep breath, just about to call his grandfather, when he suddenly heard a faint voice in his ear.

"Come on, Teacher Jiang, it was just a joke. I wouldn't dare accept such an address from you."

Jiang Dawei turned his head in astonishment and saw Ye Fan smiling at him.

His mind was in turmoil, he looked at Ye Fan with some uncertainty, his eyes full of question marks.

Why did Ye Fan say that Was he intentional Didn't he want to humiliate himself even more

At this thought, Jiang Dawei's heart couldn't help but surge with anger once again.

Just as he was about to rebuke Ye Fan, he heard Ye Fan speak.

"We don't really have any deep grudges against each other. There might have been some minor conflicts in the past, but those are all water under the bridge now. I hope that we can coexist peacefully from now on. What do you say"

Ye Fan smiled and looked at Jiang Dawei.

Jiang Dabi trembled all over. He stared at Ye Fan in disbelief, his mouth wide open, as if he could fit a chicken egg inside.

Why Wasn't he taking pleasure in beating himself down How could he pass up the opportunity to stomp all over himself so mercilesslyects the size of lanterns in each hand, grinning at him.Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. At this time, the fat man was hugging those two white, round things, weren't they exactly the ni...
