âThe ones you pick are especially tasty.
â...
After a while, Yan Su coughed, âI wonât join you guys for steamboat again next time, I donât need to eat the hotpot, Iâm full from the dog food.
âDonât you have a boyfriend, what are you jealous about? Nian Junting said casually.
âHeâs not in Xia City...
âLong distance relationship, I donât really... before he could finish, Luo Sang kicked his leg under the table.
He stopped midsentence.
They finished eating at around eight oâclock and Nian Junting prepared to take his leave as Luo Sang and Yan Su had to prepare for classes the next day.
âIâll walk you down, Luo Sang stood up.
âItâs ok, Iâll show myself out, itâs not safe out there at night, Nian Junting reminded her, âDonât go out at night, text me if youâre hungry, Iâll order supper for you.
âDonât exaggerate, Luo Sang was secretly pleased.
âOf course, you are so pretty, Nian Junting was putting on his shoes, âOh right, about your voice acting gig, I went around the industry and talked to the producers, they wonât be causing any trouble from now on.
âReally? Luo Sang was happily surprised, âI thought you didnât know much about the entertainment industry?
âTemporarily, but I have friends at the Media and Communications Authority, Nian Junting said with a shrug.
Luo Sang recalled that all the television and film productions had to be approved by the authorities before they could be released, even if Yi Jingxi could control the entertainment industry, he wouldnât be able to do reach into the Media and Communications Authority.
Of course, the Nian family had been in politics for generations, they must have a wide connection to various government authorities.
Could a business man ever trump a political figure?
After Nian Junting left, Yan Su chimed, âMr. Nian must stop, heâs being so sweet to you. Iâm so envious that your boyfriend is by your side.
âYou guys wonât be in a long-distance relationship forever, right?
Luo Sang was curious, even though Yan Su had a boyfriend, she hardly called him. If she hadnât head to him over the long weekend, she would have seriously doubted whether Yan Su even had a boyfriend in the first place, âSeems like... you always go over to him, Iâve never seen him come over to Ximei.
Yan Su was shocked, âHeâs circumstances are special.
âIs he a military man?
Yan Su shook her head. She hesitated before saying, âHe is in the music industry, he is the main reason why I want to become a singer.
Luo Sang was taken aback, âIf heâs in the industry, why didnât he just help you find a company to sign with? Why is he letting you figure things out by yourself, you even had to work in a pub as a backup singer.
âI canât.
âHeâs a Korean idol popstar, his company invested a great deal into packaging his image. You know how strict they are over there, he is bound by contract for six years. Heâs not allowed to have a relationship, even if he did, he must date a popular female star over there. Itâs really competitive, he canât afford to make any mistakes. He only entered the mainland market earlier this year and heâs extremely busy. Always jet setting around, I can only meet him occasionally when he is in a nearby city. I bet you wonât believe me, I only seen him twice this year, it a rush every time we meet.
âOne time we met, he was performing onstage and I was just an audience member. We mostly text each other, we canât really talk on the phone. Weâre worried that his manager would find out about us.
Luo Sang was flabbergasted, she didnât know that Yan Suâs relationship was so difficult.
