Chapter 41 The Unshakable Black History

Why didn’t An Liang invest in the web drama Our Promise?

That was a ten-million profit!

“Didn’t we already agree on this before?” An Liang asked in return.

Liang Xue looked a bit awkward and said, “I was afraid you were just talking nonsense while drunk.”

“I was drinking kumquat lemon juice—what nonsense could I have been talking?” An Liang gave a typically blunt response. “Go talk with your agency. Let’s set a time tomorrow to finalize this matter. I’ve got to hurry and take a trip to Thailand.”

“Okay, I’ll discuss it with them right away,” Liang Xue said and finally felt relieved.

The next afternoon, at a teahouse in the central district of Modu, An Liang and Liang Xue signed a cooperation agreement with Shengguang Entertainment, Liang Xue’s agency. An Liang would invest five million, and Shengguang would invest two million. Together, they would produce the web drama Our Promise, with both parties sharing all the rights.

After the agreement was signed, An Liang directly transferred five million to Shengguang Entertainment. With the Life Winner System guaranteeing profits, what did he have to worry about?

“Mr. An, are you free tonight? Let me treat you to dinner,” Liang Xue invited.

An Liang thought of the cashback rewards on his Gourmet Enjoyment Card and replied, “You treated me last night at Rongcheng Restaurant, so it’s my turn tonight. How about that?”

Liang Xue declined politely, “I should be the one treating you—thank you for your investment and for choosing me as the female lead.”

An Liang waved it off.

“If you want to thank me, then do well in Our Promise and help supervise the production team. I want my investment to make money.”

He continued, “Bring a couple of friends along to dinner, so you don’t get drunk again. That was a hassle!”

Liang Xue looked a bit embarrassed and had no choice but to go along with him.

“I’ll bring my assistant and the second female lead of the web drama. Is that okay?”

An Liang had already met her assistant, Luo Sufen, and nodded.

“No problem. As long as your assistant is there, she can drag you home if you get drunk again.”

“By the way, who’s the second female lead?” An Liang asked curiously.

“…”

Liang Xue gave him a speechless look. The representative from her agency had clearly introduced the second lead when they signed the contract, hadn’t he?

An Liang had even nodded as if he was listening seriously.

Was that all for show?

More importantly—was he really that casual about a five-million-dollar investment?

Liang Xue felt completely lost in the world of the wealthy. All she could do was envy it.

When would she reach the point where she could be so chill about investing five million? Probably only in her dreams.

After all, her pay for this web drama was just 200,000. Five million? Please. Let’s not dream while awake.

“The second female lead is my teammate Zhao Yue. She’s really pretty. I’ll contact her now,” Liang Xue explained.

An Liang nodded slightly.

“Whatever. Just bring someone to make sure you don’t get drunk again.”

Liang Xue’s mouth twitched—was this black history really impossible to shake off?

She really wanted to say again—she actually has a good tolerance for alcohol!

While Liang Xue made the call, An Liang contacted the luxury resort Amanyangyun and booked a private dining experience at Rongfu Banquet.

Rongfu Banquet was an ultra-high-end private restaurant in Modu, located in the Silan Villa complex, next to the Zhou Mansion and the Meilan Former Residence, with an excellent location.

It mainly serves Cantonese and classic provincial Taiwanese dishes, with ingredients that change with the seasons. Seasonal seafood and delicacies are all provided based on the time of year.

This ultra-premium restaurant had no fixed menu—it was all customized—and the average cost per person exceeded 1,600 yuan. If they customized more luxuriously, the price skyrocketed.

By around 5 PM, An Liang sat in the front passenger seat of a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Liang Xue and Zhao Yue sat in the back. At that moment, An Liang suddenly found the ultra-luxurious rear seats of the Rolls-Royce Phantom annoying—if only there were a middle seat, he could be sandwiched between them!

Meanwhile, the assistant Luo Sufen had it worse—she followed nervously in her little Toyota behind the Rolls-Royce. An Liang used the Friendly Information Scan System and the Friendly Scan System to check Zhao Yue’s details.

Zhao Yue.

Height: 167 cm

Weight: 46 kg

Looks: 84

Figure: 82

Special Status: 82 (Sub-health due to long-term high-intensity work)

Friendliness: 60

_____

To An Liang, Zhao Yue was far less attractive than Liang Xue, in every way. Perhaps because An Liang hadn’t objected to her being the second lead, her friendliness score with him had reached 60.

Moments later, the group arrived at the Silan Villa complex where the Rongfu Banquet was located. Staff from the restaurant were already waiting to receive them.

Inside the private room, An Liang browsed on his tablet while saying, “Order whatever you like—but no alcohol. Especially you, Liang Xue. Your alcohol tolerance is terrible. Once you drink, things get troublesome.”

Assistant Luo Sufen quickly lowered her head and stifled a laugh—she knew the truth. But An Liang actually believed Liang Xue had poor tolerance?
