Chapter 57

Just two simple words made Shen Tang\'s heart flutter happily like a little deer bouncing around.

Qi Yue pinched her cheek: "Well done."

Shen Tang\'s little face flushed red. She did seem to be a bit shameless.

But that was Gu Huaian! Even the female protagonist of the original story couldn\'t get that man!

[Sugar Daddy: Do you have plans tonight?]

Only then did Shen Tang remember that he had said earlier he had something to do tonight and told her to wait at home.

[Silly Monkey in Love: My friend asked me to go out. Did you have something for me to do when you said to wait for you earlier?]

[Sugar Daddy: No]

Shen Tang strangely felt that he didn\'t seem very happy.

Maybe it was just her illusion. After all, it was only two words without even seeing the person.

After getting ready, the two got in the car and headed for the banquet.

After arriving, Shen Tang was very nervous. Qi Yue held her hand all along, which did give her some strength.

It was just that she felt many people\'s gazes falling on her back, making her very uncomfortable.

Qi Yue brought Shen Tang to the dessert area and explained, "Wait for me here. I\'ll go pay my respects to the elders."

"Go on."

Looking at the various high-end desserts, Shen Tang\'s mouth was already watering. She now only had one thought—eat them!

It had to be said, the desserts here were really delicious, and they were all in small pieces, which made it convenient for her to try them.

"Shen Tang? What are you doing here?"

Shen Tang looked back, somewhat puzzled, "Sorry, you are...?"

The man revealed an incredulous expression. "Shen Tang, are you really forgetting or just pretending? You didn\'t say you had such a bad memory when we were dating before."

Shen Tang suddenly realized, "Oh, so you\'re my ex-boyfriend. You look decent now, I didn\'t recognize you. What are you doing here?"

"I\'m here with— No, wait, I asked first. What are you doing here?"

Although the man now looked normal, his IQ didn\'t seem too high.

"Stop!" Shen Tang made a "stop" gesture.

"Didn\'t I say it before? A qualified ex should be treated as dead. Why did you come to find me?"

"Do you really think I care to talk to you? If it wasn\'t for—"

"If it wasn\'t for what?"

"I have a friend who\'s recently investing in a TV drama. He just thought you look a lot like the third female lead and wondered if you\'d be interested in meeting him?"

Shen Tang directly refused: "Not interested."

"Well, since you\'re not interested, I\'ll be going then." With that, the man reached out to grab Shen Tang\'s arm.

Shen Tang frowned and forcefully slapped his hand away. "I said I\'m not interested. Can\'t you understand people?"

Seeing his reddened hand, the man\'s face also sank. "Shen Tang, don\'t be ungrateful. That\'s the third female lead role. With your usually limited resources, you should seize the opportunity when you get it. Or do you expect to get the first female lead? Heh, you really aim high but your abilities are lacking."

Here we go again. She thought he had recovered his senses, but clearly there was still something wrong with his brain.

Just then, a tall figure suddenly appeared next to them. "What\'s going on here?"

Shen Tang looked up to see it was Gu Jinan.

At this time, his almond eyes seemed to be smiling as they swept over her. Shen Tang suddenly felt goosebumps on her arm.

Although not as rich as Gu Huaian, Gu Jinan was also not to be trifled with. Seeing him, the ex-boyfriend became very nervous.

Gu Jinan stepped closer, and his tall stature put pressure on Shen Tang.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here alone?"

"I came with a friend. I have something to do, so I won\'t disturb you."

Shen Tang turned to leave, but Gu Jinan suddenly grabbed her wrist, and his thumb even gently caressed it.

"Why is sister-in-law leaving?" he asked deeply while looking at her, his almond eyes clearly reflecting her image.

Shen Tang: "..."

Help, he doesn\'t think he\'s handsome, does he?

With her other hand, she forcefully pried his wandering fingers off one by one.

"If you don\'t want your hand anymore, I can help you with that."

Gu Jinan suddenly laughed out loud. "Sister-in-law, you really are amusing."

"Are you trying to say, \'Woman, you\'ve successfully caught my attention\'? Tsk, how greasy. Let me make a suggestion, go degrease yourself."

Gu Jinan\'s smile remained, but it turned fake.

Shen Tang couldn\'t be bothered to respond to him and just left.

She was completely unaware that Gu Jinan stood in place watching her back for a long time before someone came to greet him and he resumed his previous demeanor.

Shen Tang sent Qi Yue a message and then went to the lounge area in the corner to rest.

She had thought she could relax for a while, but didn\'t expect more shameless people to come over.

Shen Tang suddenly understood what Qi Yue had said before—most of the people here were rogues. Normal people were too few.

At the moment, a potbellied, Mediterranean-looking man in a suit walked over holding two glasses of wine and casually sat down next to Shen Tang, overly familiar.

"Here alone?"

Not waiting for Shen Tang to reply, he went on, "I\'m also alone. Since we met by chance, why not have a drink together?"

Shen Tang frowned. What does he mean met by chance? Wasn\'t it clearly that he deliberately came over?

"Sorry, I\'m allergic to alcohol."

The Mediterranean man was taken aback for a moment. "No problem, the alcohol content in this drink is very low, it\'s mostly juice."

Shen Tang smiled. "Sorry, I\'m also allergic to fruit juices."

The Mediterranean man realized Shen Tang was deliberately brushing him off and his face turned unpleasant.

He forced a smile. "Let\'s be honest. I\'m currently investing in a TV drama. I think you look a lot like the third female lead role. Would you be interested in meeting about it?"

"Thank you, but I don\'t plan on taking any roles right now."

The smile completely slipped from the Mediterranean man\'s face.

"Shen Tang, who do you think you\'re fooling? Do you think I don\'t know about your measly situation? I\'m giving you a chance here."

"Oh, so you know me. That saves me the introduction. Since you have such a great opportunity, just keep it for yourself. I\'m not worthy. That\'s it, you take care now."

This time, Shen Tang didn\'t leave again. She realized she might have a trash magnet aura—wherever she went, someone would come over. So she might as well just relax here comfortably.

Anyway, why should she take the fall for others?

The Mediterranean man was furious but couldn\'t do much with so many people around.

He just coldly snorted, "There will come a time when you\'ll be begging me."

Shen Tang dug out her ear, indifferent. "I\'ll wait and see then."

As someone ready to retire from the industry, she feared nothing. He could use whatever means he wanted.

After waiting a while longer, Qi Yue finally returned, along with a man in a suit and leather shoes.

Shen Tang stood up.

"Shen Tang, this is my brother, Qi Jue. Brother, this is Shen Tang."

"Hello."

The two shook hands briefly.

Qi Jue bid them farewell and left. Only then did Qi Yue quietly explain to Shen Tang, "My brother is preparing to enter the entertainment industry recently. Would you want to join my brother\'s company?"

"Huh?"

Shen Tang was a bit confused. "Then why didn\'t you join when you were in the entertainment industry before?"

Qi Yue rolled his eyes. "He recently met a girl he likes. He feels like it\'s quite tough for her to struggle in the entertainment industry, so he wants to protect her."

"Sigh, I really am an adopted sister."

Only then did Shen Tang react late. "What did you say your brother is called?"

"Qi Jue. What\'s wrong?"

Shen Tang gasped. Wasn\'t this one of the male leads who pined for the female protagonist in the original book?

The entertainment company he set up focused on promoting the female protagonist alone. Its full name was "Protecting the Female Lead". He won the female protagonist many resources.

The female protagonist became the youngest Grand Slam Best Actress in history.

"Tang Tang, think about it."

Shen Tang absentmindedly nodded.

She did need to consider this carefully.
