A Valiant Life

They drank and ate to their hearts’ content.

At the entrance of the hotel.

Liu Xu came over to Lin Fan’s side. “What’s going on? Wasn’t the situation very grave just now? What did you guys do to that Chen He? He even actively paid the bill after eating. That doesn’t make sense.”

Lin Fan smiled, “I won’t tell you. I’ll let you guess…”

“Cheh. You say it as if I want to know very badly,” responded Liu Xu. However, she really looked like she wanted to know very badly. What had happened just now? And just how badly did this Chief Chen get f*cked?

“Then I shan’t tell you.” Lin Fan smiled. He just didn’t want to tell Liu Xu what had happened. He wanted to let this woman slowly think.

Lin Fan said, “Ming Yang, what are you guys going to do?”

Xu Zi Le had returned, so naturally, Wang Ming Yang had to go have some fun with his wife.

“You drank some wine today, so you definitely cannot drive. Let me send you home then,” said Wang Ming Yang.

Lin Fan said, “Sorry for the trouble then. I’ll have to disturb your precious night.”

“F*ck, you’ve become so crude after just a little alcohol,” scolded Wang Ming Yang jokingly. Xu Zi Le’s face turned a little red too as she said, “Brother Lin, you have to hurry up and find yourself a girlfriend. Then, you wouldn’t be so lonely at night anymore.”

Lin Fan chuckled, “Let’s go. Enough nonsense.”

In the car.

“Why didn’t Zi Le get on this car with us?” asked Lin Fan.

Wang Ming Yang looked at him and said, “She’s driving with that Qiao Xue and they’re following behind us. Oh right, you said that Chen He won’t take revenge, right?”

Lin Fan said confidently, “Don’t worry, he won’t.”

Wang Ming Yang nodded, “That’s good. That guy, Chen He, is quite powerful in the North. If he holds a grudge against us, Zi Le won’t be able to go to the North anymore. But regardless, I would still let Zi Le go to the North. This Southside has been developed enough already.”

“Mmm.” Lin Fan nodded and didn’t say much else.

“Oh right, what do you think about that Qiao Xue?”

Lin Fan thought for a moment. “She’s a pretty good little lady. She’s beautiful and sensible.”

Wang Ming Yang nudged Lin Fan’s arm and grinned. “Just now, Zi Le talked to me. If you want, she can stay with you tonight. In future, that little lady would have someone to watch over her in this industry.”

“Oh please. Are you still my Brother? You’re forcing me to be the kind of person I dislike the most?” Lin Fan said, “I took a look. This Qiao Xue has a pretty good relationship with your wife and she’s a reliable friend. You can just help her out a little and it’ll be enough, you don’t have to take this path.”

“Alright, I knew you would say this. But I’m really suspicious about whether you’re gay. Fortunately, I have a girlfriend. Otherwise, people would definitely think I’m gay.”

“F*ck. I just want to experience this beautiful society. When the time comes, I’ll find a girlfriend,” said Lin Fan.

Wang Ming Yang shook his head, “I think it will be difficult. It’s not that it would be hard to find a girlfriend but your luck with women is a little too strong. Enough talk. I’m sure you have some plan. Let’s see how you resolve it when the time comes but I would advise you not to drag this out. Men bloom at thirty-one but women already start withering at thirty. Even if you don’t think for yourself, you have to give others a statement.”

Lin Fan looked over at Wang Ming Yang. “You b*stard…”

…

In the pink car behind.

Xu Zi Le was in a very good mood. She let out a heavy sigh from the bottom of her heart.

Qiao Xue looked at Sister Xu curiously.

“What is it, Xue Er? Is there a flower on your Sister Xu’s face or something?” asked Xu Zi Le with a laugh.

Qiao Xue shook her heard and said in a gentle tone. “No, it’s just that I never thought Sister Xu’s Big Bro would be so amazing.”

Xu Zi Le smiled, “Of course he is. He’s a good brother of Ming Yang’s. I am only able to be together with Ming Yang because he put in a good word for me. Sometimes, I’m even envious of Big Bro. He has an even better relationship with Ming Yang than I do.”

Today’s incident had given Qiao Xue a huge shock. She had known how messy this industry was but she had never expected to see what she had seen that day.

“How could that be? I can tell that Chief Wang really likes you.”

Xu Zi Le smiled but didn’t reply to that. “Oh right, Xue Er, are you going to continue being in this industry?”

Qiao Xue nodded, “Mmm, I’ll keep working hard.”

“Please don’t mind what I’m going to say to you. About today’s incident, if your Sister Xu wasn’t Ming Yang’s girlfriend, what do you think would have happened tonight?”

Qiao Xue didn’t say anything. Naturally, she knew what the outcome would have been.

“I can see that you’re sensible. Sister Xu shall tell you bluntly. If you want to be in this industry, it’s very hard to succeed without paying in some way. There are very little people who become popular without paying in some way. Brother Lin is a pretty good man, he’s good-looking and he’s amazing too. If you don’t want to become someone’s plaything, Sister Xu can help you. Although you don’t have a high status, you can at least get a pillar of support.” Xu Zi Le said this very bluntly but there was no other choice. She liked this Xue Er very much and she was willing to treat her like a sister. However, with her current status, Xu Zi Le couldn’t guarantee that she could protect Qiao Xue.

She didn’t dare to tell Wang Ming Yang about this. After all, Ming Yang didn’t have the time to care about others.

But if Qiao Xue formed a relationship with Brother Lin, Ming Yang would have to care about her.

She knew that this would be Qiao Xue’s first time. Men cared very much about these kinds of things. Being in this industry was sometimes a gamble as well.

Although this was a little dark, all that she had said was true.

But…

She hadn’t said a certain thing yet. Brother Lin might not agree because he wasn’t that type of person.

Qiao Xue wasn’t a newbie, she knew that Sister Xu was doing this for her own good. And it was only because she had been so sincere towards Sister Xu that Sister Xu would say this and help her find a reliable pillar of support.

However, Qiao Xue hadn’t decided yet.

Xu Zi Le smiled as she drove. “Alright, little girl, don’t think too much. This matter isn’t confirmed yet. Brother Lin is a warm-hearted man. If you can become his friend, Brother Lin would be happy to help you. So later on, Sister Xu shall introduce you to Brother Lin. as for whether it works out or not, that will depend on you.”

Qiao Xue said, “Thank you for looking out for me, Sister Xu.”

Xu Zi Le laughed, “Haha, I thought that you would be annoyed with me for doing this. Oh right, next time, if you’re doing any shows and you see Wu Huan Yue, you have to form a good relationship with her because she’s Brother Lin’s friends.”

Qiao Xue said, “You’re talking about that Wu Huan Yue who rose up very quickly and now has many great hits?

Xu Zi Le nodded, “Mmm. Also, did you know that those great hits were all written by Brother Lin? Now you understand how amazing Brother Lin is, right?”

“Mmm, that’s really amazing.” Qiao Xue nodded.

…

At the entrance of Lin Fan’s home.

Lin Fan and Wang Ming Yang were leaning on the car, smoking. Xu Zi Le’s car arrived.

They got off the car.

Xu Zi Le said, “Brother Lin, thank you for today.”

Lin Fan flicked the cigarette ashes away. “No need to thank me. We’re family, what’s there to thank for?”

“Brother Lin, this is my Little Sister, Qiao Xue,” introduced Xu Zi Le.

Qiao Xue said nervously, “Hello, Brother Lin.”

Lin Fan sized her up for a moment and said, “Mmm, not bad. A very kind-hearted little lady. Zi Le, this Little Sister of yours is not bad. In future, you have to take care of her. I shall go up now. You guys should go back early too.”

After saying this, Lin Fan turned around and left.

After Lin Fan had left, Xu Zi Le asked, “Ming Yang, what did Brother Lin say?”

Wang Ming Yang sighed, “Sigh, I’m gonna be busy again from now on.”

“What do you mean?” asked Xu Zi Le in a puzzled tone.

Wang Ming Yang said, “You don’t understand? I told you that this wouldn’t work but it ended up very well. Qiao Xue, you’re really pretty good. Do you want to hop over to Brother Wang’s company? Your Brother Wang will pay your contract termination fee for you.”

Xu Zi Le smiled as she held onto Qiao Xue’s shoulder. She gently patted her head and said, “You’ve gotten lucky, little girl.”

Qiao Xue had no idea what was going on yet. But eventually, she understood. Brother Wang was willing to let her join his company and was even willing to pay her contract termination fee.

“Sighhh.” Wang Ming Yang shook his head, “I have to work hard to earn money. Otherwise, I won’t be able to cover you guys in future.”

Xu Zi Le held onto Wang Ming Yang’s waist. “Husband. Muacks.”

Wang Ming Yang chuckled and said vulgarly, “Let’s go back and have sex!”

Xu Zi Le blushed. “Xue Er is still here, don’t talk nonsense.”

“Haha…”

Qiao Xue looked enviously at Sister Xue. She had found a home.
