Chapter 1 A Bad Experience

A few days ago.

Jiang Yu was dragged to a film set by Xiao Nizi to try out for a role. It's said that the scene was awkward and mortifying.

When Jiang Yu stood in front of the camera, she couldn't even smile anymore. The expression on her face was as stiff as a robot's, and her body movements were the same.

She even tripped and fell while walking. Yet, Director Dou showed concern and kept praising Jiang Yu's talent, saying that she looked like a magazine cover girl just standing there.

This wasn't because Jiang Yu was really that talented, but purely because of Su Yehao's reputation.

Director Dou Jiafeng's entire fortune was riding on this movie, which was eventually titled *tAt: The Little Things About Love*, so his desire to survive was extremely strong, and he tried his best not to do anything wrong.

He was already so serious about making movies, let alone when it came to Jiang Yu and Nangong Tian.

He had seen Jiang Yu a few times before while he was with Su Yehao. Although he wasn't clear about the exact relationship, it was enough for Director Dou to transform into a sycophant, fawning all over Jiang Yu.

After all, not making a good movie might not be a big deal, but if anyone whispered something in Su Dashao's ear, his position as director would definitely be handed over to someone else.

Jiang Yu, this inexperienced newbie on the set, inexplicably became "a woman with a sugar daddy." After messing up many times, even the staff became impatient. Although they didn't say it explicitly, they didn't give her good looks.

In the end, Jiang Yu took the initiative to give up and forced the director to find someone else, bringing her acting career to a close.

Since then.

Jiang Yu no longer actively asked about the crew's affairs. She was heartbroken.

Acting is a technical skill. Everyone can act, but wanting to act well is another matter. It depends heavily on talent and experience, and she had neither.

Hearing Nangong Tian mention letting her act, Su Yehao subconsciously glanced at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu said warily, "What are you looking at me for... I feel like you're laughing at me."

"Not at all, I just think you're good-looking. Actually, the main problem is that this movie isn't suitable for you. Hong Kong movies are too lively. If you went to the mainland to play a quiet vase goddess, you'd be very suitable."

Jiang Yu was startled when Su Yehao said this.

Nangong Tian was still there, and being flirted with in front of her always made Jiang Yu feel guilty.

Don't look at her yelling about telling Xiao Nizi, but in reality, she never thought of putting it into practice.

Once they talked about what happened on the thunderstorm night a few days ago, they might not even be friends in the end. Besides, Jiang Yu wasn't too angry in the first place, but instead tossed and turned at night, feeling ashamed and unable to sleep.

She frowned and asked, "A vase? What do you mean?"

"Oh, I'm praising you for being pleasing to the eye."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he turned to Xiao Nizi and asked, "Which role are you planning for me to play?"

"After the male lead breaks up, he puts all his energy into starting a business. Later, he meets a powerful investor who is a legend in the business world. I want to ask you to play this big businessman, it's only one page of lines."

Nangong Tian took his arm and said happily, "I'll play your secretary myself. Don't worry, I'll make you look very handsome, even more handsome than those Heavenly Kings."

Su Yehao immediately gained some confidence and said with a smile,

"Isn't that just playing myself? Sounds like it really suits me. Can it be filmed in half a day?"

"It should be about the same. It might not even take half a day. If everything goes well, it can be done in an hour or two. Just wear your best suit, go to the Sihai International Building, find an office, and act according to the lines. It's very simple."

After hearing what Xiao Nizi said, Su Yehao decisively said, "We can shoot exterior scenes at the Sihai International Building. The street scenes in Central are more beautiful. Just borrow my grandpa's office, his study is very beautiful, the collections on the Bogu shelves are worth nine figures."

"Okay! I'll call the director."

…

The new week.

On Monday night in Hong Kong, after the stock split, Yahoo continued trading on the NASDAQ for the first time.

Su Yehao held Yahoo shares worth more than 200 million US dollars, and also held Yahoo options worth more than 120 million US dollars, accounting for almost one-tenth of Yahoo's total share capital.

Even a small fluctuation in such a large sum of money would involve a considerable amount.

At 9:25 in the evening, after going downstairs to burn incense for the jade Fortune God, Su Yehao had just put down the lighter when he saw Linda Yun walking over with a plastic box.

Raising his chin, Su Yehao asked, "Did you buy something?"

"It's the hairy crabs you wanted. I sent someone to Pengcheng, and they couldn't find any after searching everywhere, so I asked someone to go to Yangcheng Lake, which you mentioned. I bought sixty in total, and there are three more boxes in the car. They were transported from Shanghai by plane, and they seem to be still alive."

Because Su Yehao had a sudden whim and wanted to taste hairy crabs, Linda Yun put in a lot of effort.

After opening the box and looking at it, Su Yehao's lips curled up, and he said, "Wow, no wonder they're crabs that have been on a plane, they're quite big."

They were all adult crabs that had grown up last year. After finally surviving the winter, they were捞 (lāo - scooped) up.

This season is not suitable for eating hairy crabs. The breeding season has just passed, and there is not much yellow roe, so most of the crabs sent were male crabs.

Linda Yun said helplessly,

"I couldn't buy them anywhere. I almost prepared to apply for a visa and go to the mainland myself. Fortunately, I remembered that you have a company in Pengcheng, so I could ask someone to help. The seafood stores have emperor crabs, king crabs, and mud crabs, but are these hairy crabs really that delicious?"

"They're not delicious now, they only hit the market in September and October. Shall we steam a few and try them together?"

Su Yehao also knew that he was being a bit willful.

Linda Yun grew up in San Francisco and has an American passport. She only went to Casino to teach English because of work.

With her identity, applying for a visa to the mainland is more troublesome than Su Yehao applying for a permit. She has to apply at the embassy, which takes longer.

Thinking that Linda Yun almost had to run all the way to Yangcheng Lake to blow the wind because of these crabs, Su Yehao inexplicably found it interesting. Seeing that she was quite interested, he immediately picked a few crabs and took them to the kitchen to wash.

While steaming the crabs, Su Yehao thought of something and asked Linda Yun, "Where have you been staying recently? There are too few residents near Big Wave Bay Road, so it's difficult to rent a house, right? I have many guest rooms here, why don't you pick one, so you don't have to commute back and forth to work?"

"I'm working for you, how can I live in the boss's house? Besides, I've already rented a house, more than eight hundred square feet, and the rent is 70,000 yuan per year, I can see the high-rise buildings in Central."

Linda Yun was chopping ginger into small pieces according to his instructions.

More than eight hundred square feet is about eighty square meters, which is spacious enough for one person to live in.

In addition, not only have house prices fallen recently, but rents in Hong Kong have also dropped slightly. A rent of 70,000 Hong Kong dollars per year can already rent a pretty good apartment.

Su Yehao only said, "A personal secretary, it's difficult to work on time like other jobs. Maybe I'll need your help at any time, so it's actually normal to live with me. But since you've already rented it, then forget it. If you change your mind one day, just tell me."

"You still want me to work after get off work? Then I'm even more afraid to live with you."

Linda Yun finished speaking with a smile, and immediately added,

"Just kidding, it's actually not that busy, it's just that this job is different from before. When I was teaching, I was doing things according to routine every day, but now it's a bit more interesting. Tell me what you want me to do at any time, unless I'm really too sleepy, I should be able to answer your phone, taking money to do things, being at your beck and call, don't be lenient with me just because we know each other..."
