120. Accept The Invitation To Act In A Movie

Wei Sama, Let's Stuff Them With Dog Food[1]

Mrs. Chen said firmly, and Qi Le An couldn’t think of an excuse to refuse.

Luckily, Chen Shan’s baby sister came to his rescue, suddenly crying loudly at this moment. She might have had a nightmare, and she was choked by tears. Mrs. Chen anxiously hugged and soothed her daughter, forgetting about Qi Le An for the moment.

Qi Le An let out a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Chen and the two nannies soothed the baby for over ten minutes before the baby gradually calmed down and went back to sleep.

At this moment, Chen Shan pushed the door open and came in.

Just as he was about to speak loudly, Mrs. Chen patted him and said, “Hush. Your sister has just fallen asleep.”

Chen Shan lowered his voice with a hurt look on his face, “I haven’t said anything yet.”

Mrs. Chen sneered coldly. “Did you call your sister Fatty Girl in front of others?”

Chen Shan was lost for words.

The family went out of the baby’s room. All the guests had gone, and the servants were cleaning up the living room. Mrs. Chen asked Chen Shan and Qi Le An to the dining room, “Song has just made lunch. Come and eat.”

Qi Le An didn’t eat at the banquet, nor did Chen Shan. They sat down in the dining room, and the servants quickly served lunch.

After a while, Mr. Chen went downstairs after he took off the serious suit and got changed.

This was the first time Qi Le An came to the Chen house, and Mrs. Chen and Chen Shan obviously didn’t treat him as an outsider. When Mrs. Chen was about to put some ginger chicken in Qi Le An’s bowl with chopsticks, Chen Shan snatched it away blatantly and said, “He doesn’t eat ginger.”

Mr. Chen glared at his son and said, “You have no manners.”

Chen Shan shrugged without saying anything. Mrs. Chen said with a smile, “I just told An upstairs that I want to take him as my godson.”

Chen Shan got choked, coughing.

Mrs. Chen obviously hadn’t discussed this with her husband yet, so she said, “Chen, what do you think?”

Mr. Chen looked at Qi Le An and said calmly, “Does Le An agree? I like him a lot.”

Mrs. Chen smiled and looked at Qi Le An. “Le An, you definitely won’t refuse me, right?”

Chen Shan shouted with frustration, “What is going on? Does anyone care about my opinion?”

Qi Le An was surprised that Mrs. Chen mentioned this at the dinner table. His shock was no less than that of Chen Shan. He was stuck in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.

At the critical moment, Chen Shan came to his rescue. “Le An will be overwhelmed by your enthusiasm and won’t come next time.”

Mrs. Chen put on a sad look. “Le An, don’t you like me?”

Qi Le An said wryly, “Mrs. Chen, you are very kind to me.”

Mrs. Chen said with a smile, “Don’t you want to be my godson?”

It was inappropriate to refuse at this stage. Qi Le An looked at Chen Shan, who was speechless, so he said, “Okay… Godmother?”

Mrs. Chen laughed heartily, and Qi Le An had a strange feeling.

After his parents died in an accident, he had never felt any warmth from family members. He had been to Wei Chang Feng’s home a few times, and he envied him.

Did he kind of have a mother now?

Mrs. Chen said happily, “I am happy that I have two new pretty children within one month! Le An, stay here for the night. I’ll personally make you tasty food tonight.”

Chen Shan quickly said, “He has to go to school tomorrow. He has no time.”

Mrs. Chen said grumpily, “Why don’t you care about your brother? You can take him to school tomorrow.”

Chen Shan was speechless in frustration.

Mrs. Chen was not young, and she has just finished a one-month baby break. After lunch, she went back to her room to rest. Mr. Chen was busy every day, and he went to the office after he whispered a few words to Chen Shan and went upstairs to check on the baby.

After lunch, Chen Shan took Qi Le An for a stroll in the greenhouse of the garden, “Did my mother scare you?”

Qi Le An hesitated and said, “She took me by surprise.”

Chen Shan sighed and said, “It’s typical of her, but she really likes you, and she even asked me for your signed photos.”

Qi Le An was lost for words.

Chen Shan said with troubled pleasure, “It’s good though. Now you are my mother’s godson, so I guess Jiang Shan doesn’t dare to make any big moves.”

Speaking of this matter, Qi Le An felt worried. After a moment of silence, Chen Shan spoke again, “I told my dad about this… He asks us not to panic… Jiang Shan will restrain himself after the shareholders' meeting in March. But for now, you can’t reject to act in Guan Kai’s movie.”

Qi Le An nodded and said, “It’s okay.”

Chen Shan raised his head slightly with sorrow on his usually exuberant face, saying, “An, don’t you blame me?”

The Chen family had good looks, and Chen Shan was a handsome guy. Qi Le An looked at Chen Shan’s melancholy side face and said wryly, “I’m not going to act in an X-rated movie…”

Chen Shan was relieved, saying, “I’ll kill you if you dare to do that!”

Qi Le An was lost for words.

Even though Mrs. Chen insisted that Qi Le An should stay, he left after dinner anyway. Chen Shan personally drove him home. After Qi Le An got home, he went upstairs to do his homework. When Chen Shan got home, he saw his mother sitting in the living room with that chubby girl in her arms.

“You’ve taken Le An back?” Mrs. Chen asked.

Chen Shan took a can of Ice Coke from the fridge, raised his head, and drank it. “Yes, he’s at home now. Just rest assured.”

Mrs. Chen cast a glance at Chen Shan.

“But mom, why didn’t you tell me in advance about taking him as your godson?” Chen Shan complained, “Le An was terribly embarrassed.”

To his surprise, his mother sighed. She cuddled the baby and said, “We’d better settle this as soon as possible, lest things will go bad.”

Chen Shan frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”

Mrs. Chen handed the baby to the nanny, who took the girl and continued to soothe her. Mrs. Chen said, “I overheard your conversation in the study today.”

The nanny carried the baby girl upstairs, and the mother and son were left alone in the living room. Mrs. Chen continued, “Jiang Shan is full of schemes and intrigues. We take Le An as our godson, so that old thing would not do much harm on your dad’s account if anything happens in the future.”

Chen Shan instantly understood.

He had his way in Glory Entertainment, and everything went smoothly after he entered the entertainment industry. All of this was because his family was a shareholder of Glory Entertainment. In a word, he relied on his dad, because of whom people showed him respect.

Chen Shan’s artist and the godson of Mr. Chen. These two identities carried different weights.

Mrs. Chen was battening down the hatches.

“Will things get serious?” Chen Shan, who was always cynical, got suddenly worried.

Mrs. Chen smiled. Her dignified face had a calmness from years of experience. She waved her hand and said, “Come on. Don’t worry. Dad and Mom will handle this. Nothing will go wrong.”

Qi Le An didn’t know that his new identity would soon be found out by the dignitaries in Hai City. After he got home, he went upstairs to do his homework and then called Wei Chang Feng.

The filming of ‘Coffin’ had come to the final stage. After the indoors scenes were finished these days, they would finish the outdoors shooting when the weather got better in a few days. Everyone relaxed as it approached the end, including Wei Chang Feng.

“Does the vacation start from 22nd?” asked Wei Chang Feng on the bed.

Qi Le An looked at Wei Sama sitting cross-legged in the video and said, “Yes! When will you come back?”

Wei Chang Feng smiled, “The filming should be finished on the 20th.”

“That’s great.” Qi Le An said happily, “I really want to eat the food made by you.”

Wei Chang Feng had spoiled Qi Le An, who didn’t have an appetite for the meals cooked by the nanny.

Wei Chang Feng looked at Qi Le An gently and said, “Write down the dishes you want to eat. I will cook different dishes for you every day.”

Qi Le An giggled foolishly. “The list is so long that I'll need several notebooks.”

Wei Chang Feng looked troubled and asked, “So much? Doesn’t that mean that I have to cook for you until… the next life?”

Qi Le An was overwhelmed by Wei Chang Feng’s sudden sweet words.

The two of them chatted lovingly for a while before Qi Le An told Wei Chang Feng about what happened in the Chen house during the day. Wei Chang Feng frowned and asked, “Jiang Shan?”

Qi Le An was a little nervous, “I wonder if something will happen.”

Wei Chang Feng smiled and said, “Don’t be afraid. If things get serious, you have a brother-in-law to rely on.”

Qi Le An was taken aback, “Brother-in-law?”

Wei Chang Feng said, “My sister’s fiancé… Isn’t he your brother-in-law?”

Qi Le An suddenly realized that Wei Chang Feng was talking about Sheng Chang’an.

“Director Guan’s move… I did not approve of you taking it, but such being the case, it doesn’t hurt to take it.”

“I will accompany you.”

Wei Chang Feng’s low voice came from the video. Qi Le An wished he could hug him through the screen!

His image was important, but wasn’t Wei Chang Feng’s image important? Besides, Zhendong was a fickle man in the movie! Wei Chang Feng would be criticized.

All the troubles seemed to be nothing In front of Wei Chang Feng. The problem that had been disturbing Qi Le An for a whole day was finally solved. Qi Le An couldn’t help talking about Chen Shan’s chubby sister, and he sent Wei Chang Feng several photos of him holding the baby girl.

It was growing too late, so Qi Le An reluctantly hung up the phone.

Once the decision was made, there was no delay. The next morning, Chen Shan made an appointment with Guan Kai, and Qi Le An agreed to take the role of “Lan”. Director Guan was overjoyed as if pennies were falling from the sky.  However, Chen Shan did not show any mercy. He made sure that Qi Le An would be highly paid when discussing the contract with the producer.

The delighted surprise came too suddenly, and Director Guan was beside himself with joy. As for Qi Le An’s high payment, that was something to be handled by the producer and investor! It had nothing to do with him!

After meeting Qi Le An, Director Guan received a call from the assistant of Wei Chang Feng, who had been hesitant about the movie.

Gary said that Wei Chang Feng agreed to take the role of the male lead.

Director Guan hung up the phone and clutched his chest, not knowing why the world had become friendly overnight.

The two actors that he had been begging for a long time actually agreed.

He fiercely punched the producer next to him and realized that he was not dreaming from the angry and painful look on the producer’s face.
