I Beg You All, Please Shut Up

Chapter 367: Housewarming Congratulations

Li Sisi nodded, took out two bottles of juice from the refrigerator, handed one to Chu Tian, and said, “By the way, Chu Tian, teacher Chen told me something today.”

Oh? Chu Tian looked at Li Sisi and said, “What’s the matter, sister?”

“Some actors want to come to our company,” said Li Sisi, sitting across from Chu Tian, “Chen knows some people in the circle. The actor and Chen have had some interactions, but not much.”

“Teacher Chen told me this morning. She said that we don’t have to worry about her face and let us decide for ourselves. She doesn’t know this actress very well.” Chu Tian thought for a moment, took a sip of juice, and said: “So, which actor is it? What’s her name?”

“Her name is Xu Chengmin,” Li Sisi said. “I’ve checked. She’s not a famous actress. A few years ago, she acted in a few movies. They were all lukewarm. I haven’t seen any of them, and I’m guessing you haven’t seen any of them.”

“She’s not bad-looking. A few years back, a wealthy man took an interest in her. After that, they got married and were basically in a state of semi-withdrawal. Anyway, they haven’t done any work since then.”

“Three or four years ago, Xu Chengmin’s husband’s business failed, and the family lost money. After that, they divorced. She wanted to come back, but no one asked her to film. After that, she wanted to come here.”

After hearing Li Sisi’s words, Chu Tian was silent for a moment and said, “Sister, from what you say, this Xu Changmin should not be young, right?”

“A little old,” Li Sisi said. “She’s 37 years old this year and quite proud of herself. She said she’d need 60 million to sign a contract for three years.”

“That’s unbelievable,” Chu Tian exclaimed, at a loss for words, “She’s 37 years old and not famous in the first place. Now, she can’t even find a role as an actress in any film. How dare she ask for a contract fee of 60 million for three years? What is she thinking? What does she think I’m doing here?”

Li Sisi smiled and said, “Actually, I think this Xu Changmin is also a little wishful thinking, but in the end, it’s what Chen said.”

“That won’t do either,” said Chu Tian, “If she’s really a good actress, it doesn’t matter if she gets 60 million in signing fees. She might be able to earn it back in three years. The problem is that she’s not famous at all. Besides, she’s already 37 years old. What’s the point of making her a star? It’s almost impossible to pay her 60 million in signing fees. We can’t afford to do this kind of loss-making business even if we don’t need money, can we?”

“That’s fine,” Li Sisi said. “I’ll talk to Chen later and tell him that our company only wants to promote our artists at the moment, and doesn’t want to sign up artists that are already established. That’s more or less a nice way to put it.”

Chu Tian nodded. “Yes.”

“That’s right,” Li Sisi continued, “If you have nothing else to do, go home and rest. It’s Saturday. Big Baby didn’t go to class. She played with me in the office for the whole morning and then went back. I think she’s bored at home right now. Go and accompany her.”

Upon hearing Li Sisi’s words, Chu Tian suddenly recalled that it was Saturday today.

“That’s fine.”

Chu Tian stood up and said, “Sister, I will go home with Xiaoya first.”

“Well, go home. I’ll be there in a minute.”

……

Five ten in the afternoon!

In the hall of the villa, Chu Tian and Song Xiaoya had just taken the elevator up from the underground garage when they saw Bai Xiaochun putting on shoes beside the shoe rack.

“Ah, stinky damn, you’re back.”

Seeing Chu Tian came back, Bai Xiaochun’s eyes turned into crescents, revealing a mouth full of white and neat teeth.

“Just came back.” Chu Tian smiled and said, “Baby, what are you going to do with your shoes on?”

“Go to Yang Rong.” Bai Xiaochun put on her shoes, ran straight up to Chu Tian, hugged his waist, raised her head with a smile, and said, “Yang Rong is going to have dinner today. Happy housewarming, and you come back home just in time. Come with me. You haven’t been to class for a long time and haven’t seen your classmate.”

Oh?

House warming?

Chu Tian thought for a while, then smiled and said, “So, my tablemate and Chen Song are officially living together?”

“They’ve been living together for quite some time now,” Bai Xiaochun chuckled. “The two of them have been sharing a living space for almost a week. They recently moved to a new place, and it’s been three days since they settled in. Previously, Chen Song used to share an apartment with someone else, and they were also a couple in our school. However, living together as a group of four became inconvenient, so they found a smaller house. They said that they would be cooking tonight and asked if you, Chu Tian, could join. I wasn’t sure when you would return, so I simply told them that you were out of town and I had no idea about your arrival.”

“No problem.” Chu Tian said with a smile, “It’s a housewarming event for my tablemate, so I have to go to celebrate and have fun. No matter what, I’m a matchmaker for the two of you!”

“No.” Bai Xiaochun said with a smile, “You are a great matchmaker, so do you still change your clothes?”

“No need.” Chu Tian said, “I can wear this suit. How can I get there?”

“Let’s go over there.” Bai Xiaochun said, “It’s just cloudy today, and it’s not hot, so take a stroll over there.”

“Yes.” Chu Tian looked at Song Xiaoya and said, “Xiaoya, Xiao Bbai, and I won’t eat at home tonight.”

“Understood.”

Song Xiaoya nodded with a smile.
