Chapter 74: Bring your own Dry Food
Chapter 74
Yu Luobai was completely amused by the woman, and said helplessly with a smile: “Are you really going to get physical?”
Ji Nian knew the man was joking, and shamelessly said: “Hehe, I wouldn’t dare defile Teacher Yu.”
Yu Luobai shook his head with a smile, buttoned up his clothes again, and said, “Let me take you to the music room to find Peng He first. I’m all sweaty and need to take a shower.”
Ji Nian nodded obediently and said, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
“Follow me,” Yu Luobai beckoned for the woman to follow him.
After listening, Ji Nian hurried to follow him, this floor had mostly rehearsal rooms, so they didn’t run into anyone along the way.
When they arrived at the music room, Ji Nian was shocked by the scene before her eyes.
As expected of a big company, it was really impressive, with a spacious venue and drums, electric pianos, guitars and more set up all over, there was even a small stage inside, fully equipped.
“You’re here,” Peng He was talking with someone else, and greeted them with a smile when he saw the people coming in.
“Give me ten minutes, I need to wash off the sweat first,” Yu Luobai signaled Ji Nian to sit on the nearby sofa, and told Peng He, “It’s noon now, get some food for little Nian.”
“Ok,” Peng He made an “OK” gesture, seeing that the man had already strode out, he looked at the woman sitting on the sofa and asked, “Little Nian, what would you like to eat? I’ll have it sent over.”
Now that he mentioned it, she suddenly felt very hungry, Ji Nian's mouth under her mask twitched, what could she eat now, grass it is.
“Thank you, don’t bother, I brought my own dry rations,” Ji Nian held up her bag and told Peng He.
“Oh? What’s this?” Peng He looked surprised and asked with a smile.
“Sigh,” Ji Nian took off her mask and sighed, “My agent said I have to lose weight, I can’t help it, I have to nibble on grass every day. Just now when I went out, she didn’t forget to stuff me my lunch.”
As someone in the industry, Peng He naturally knew that even if an artist doesn't look fat to ordinary people, they still have to control their diet to look good on camera.
“Can’t be helped, Luobai has to eat like this too, he has to make strict demands since he’s preparing for a concert tour,” Peng He said with a laugh.
Soon, Yu Luobai had quickly showered and changed into casual clothes. As soon as he entered the music room, he happened to notice the bag in the woman's hand.
"What did you bring with you?" Yu Luobai asked.
Hearing the familiar voice, Ji Nian turned her head to look, only to see the man in a white casual outfit, making his handsome features look much softer.
"It's the lunch I brought," Ji Nian replied.
"Were you afraid I wouldn't invite you to eat so you brought your own?" Yu Luobai raised his eyebrows and sat next to the woman, laughing as he said, "There's no need for that."
"No," Ji Nian hurriedly shook her head and said, "My agent stuffed it in my bag, I have to control my weight recently..."
"What a coincidence, so do I," Yu Luobai knew she had a drama to film recently and understood the need to control weight, "Let's eat together then, we can rehearse afterwards."
Peng He had long prepared his artist’s lunch over here, he took the lunchbox and put it on the coffee table, "Luobai, this is for you."
Yu Luobai took it and skillfully opened it, while Ji Nian also took out her own lunchbox. Sure enough, it didn't disappoint her when she opened it.
She saw the lunchbox was all green, with only a lone egg providing a little comfort to her heart.
But when she looked at the man's lunchbox, that little comfort instantly disappeared - why was Yu Luobai's lunch so abundant when they were both on diet meals?
"You actually have meat?" Ji Nian stared blankly at him, looking at the contrast between the two lunchboxes, wasn't hers too shabby?
Seeing the woman's lunchbox, Yu Luobai laughed and said, "Are the requirements for your role really that strict? Eating so little?"
Ji Nian eyed the meat longingly in his bowl, unable to help swallowing, she really wanted to eat it...
Peng He also found it amusing to the side, "Requirements for actresses on camera tend to be harsher."
Seeing the woman stare at the meat in his bowl, Yu Luobai raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you want some? It's beef, it won't make you fat."
Hearing this, Ji Nian looked up at the man, her eyes full of anticipation as she blinked her big eyes and asked, "Can I?"
Yu Luobai's eyes flashed with amusement, he said with a hint of smile, "Eating a little bit secretly should be fine."
"Then..." Ji Nian licked her lips, she really wanted to eat meat so much, so she said softly, "Why don't you let me have a piece to curb my appetite."
After listening, Yu Luobai skillfully picked up a piece of beef from the bowl with his chopsticks and put it in her bowl.
"Thank you." Ji Nian happily picked it up with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth, although the beef didn't have much taste, she was still very happy.
Seeing the woman's satisfied look, Yu Luobai shook his head helplessly and started eating as well.
At that moment in the Yuntian Building, Ye Jingzhan looked at today's visitor, surprise flashed through his eyes.
"What are you doing here?"
The visitor had a hint of smile at the corner of his mouth, dressed in an ink-black suit, his fair and smooth face had distinct and profound features. Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, he exuded a noble and refined temperament.
"I'm here to learn from you," Pei Yuchen casually sat in the office chair and answered with a laugh.
Surprise flashed through Ye Jingzhan's cold face, "Are you really going to take over your family's business?"
Pei Yuchen thought of his family, his eyes flashed a hint of gloom, he still looked gentle and refined as he said, "I have no choice, I'm the only son."
Ye Jingzhan naturally knew what the man in front of him was thinking, "You're the rightful heir."
Pei Yuchen nodded casually with a smile, "The old man said I should start with a small entertainment company first to gain experience."
Ye Jingzhan raised his eyebrows and sneered, "What? He doesn't trust your abilities yet?"
Pei Yuchen shrugged, looking indifferent, "I studied medicine after all, it's understandable he feels unsure."
"Does a genius still need to differentiate by major?" Ye Jingzhan looked at the documents in his hand and asked lightly.
"That's why I'm here to learn from you," Pei Yuchen said with a smile.
Ye Jingzhan nodded, "If you want to learn, I have a HuaYu Company under me, you can take a look. I remember when I started that company, you also chipped in to get some shares just for fun."
"I was abroad back then. And that stepmother of mine wanted to control my money so I had no choice but to fleece you," Pei Yuchen said coldly to himself as he recalled this matter. He was really toyed with by her when he was young.
"I heard your stepmother has always wanted your younger sister to marry into some prominent family," Ye Jingzhan said lightly.
Thinking of his half-sister at home, Pei Yuchen's eyes turned cold and aloof.
"Hmph."
Seeing the gentlemanly look on the man's face instantly turn icy cold, Ye Jingzhan asked, "What's your relationship with that Ji Nian?"
Pei Yuchen was taken aback, wasn't that a rather abrupt change of topic?
"Why ask about her?" He didn't understand.
Ye Jingzhan just suddenly recalled it. He had seen the two look quite close last time, so he said, "This woman has a rather complicated family background, not suitable for you."
Pei Yuchen laughed, reverting back to his gentle and refined demeanor, "Did you investigate her?" he asked with a smile.
Ye Jingzhan nodded, "Want to hear about it?"
Pei Yuchen smiled and shook his head. Whenever he met her, she would look unwilling. Although it was quite interesting, he had always been disinterested in other people's matters.
