"You..."
Fine, picking a fight with me for the sake of that kid Ye Xian!
Seeing that he couldn’t persuade him, Shangguan Yunli changed tack and went on to tempt Ye Xian.
"Ye Xian, would you like to take part in it? This is Director Wei’s work, and it has won the Golden Sparrow Award!"
Ye Xian nodded, uh-huh!
"And it’s based on a super popular novel that topped the male readers’ charts for a whole year!"
Ye Xian nodded furiously, uh-huh, uh-huh!
"Your debut film and you’re already on an equal footing with me; other people in the industry should be green with envy!"
Ye Xian was about to nod his head off, cut it out, big brother, give me the script now!
"And don’t listen to Tingshen’s nonsense, what high-risk stunts? They’ve all been adapted, just a few wire stunts, and you’ll be wrapped up securely. As for intimacy, the most you’ll do is run a stretch on the street with me, bare-chested. That’s really nothing."
"???"
Ye Xian’s eyes suddenly widened, suspecting he’d heard wrong.
"There’s also getting drenched, a wet shirt dance-off—come on, we’re grown men, we’re not afraid of this, are we?"
Ye Xian: "!!!" That’s exactly what I’m afraid of.
Seeing that his temptation was almost working and Ye Xian’s eyes were nearly popping out with excitement, Shangguan Yunli glanced at Bo Tingshen and the eager director beside him, then confirmed with Ye Xian for the last time, "Ye Xian, are you willing to take part? If you are, don’t worry about Tingshen, just tell me directly. What is a few billion in breach of contract with Star Entertainment? Trivial, I’ll cover it for you!"
He had long wanted to get his hands on Ye Xian. If Ye Xian was devoted to him, Tingshen wouldn’t be able to stop him, could he? It’s not like he could tie him up and prevent him from going, right?
A few billion?
Bo Tingshen looked down at the person beside him. Ye Xian seemed not to notice his gaze, smiling at Shangguan Yunli and saying, "Young Master Shangguan, I appreciate your kindness, but I feel like this role might not be quite right for me."
As soon as the words were out, everyone there was shocked.
Such an opportunity falling into his lap, and Ye Xian was actually refusing it?! Had he lost his mind?
Shangguan Yunli: "I knew you were the sensible type... wait, what did you say? Not right for you? Then why were you nodding your head like a pecking chicken earlier, playing me for a fool!"
That was before you mentioned streaking and the wet shirt dancing.
Ye Xian scratched his ear, "That was... just giving you some face."
Shangguan Yunli: "No, why, though? Such a great opportunity is coming your way—you’re not taking it? Playing hard to get with me?"
"How would I dare? It’s because..."
