Chapter 1386: Chapter 1386: Come Out and Meet
"Haha, don’t look at me like that," Fang Dongxun sat up, speaking in a joking tone, "I won’t hide it from you. I hooked up with a celebrity before the New Year, I believe you know her name. She’s Chu Ming, yes, the female lead who played in the current hit drama ’Immortal Saber Legend’. I promised to help her set up a studio, be her own boss, and avoid being preyed upon by the hidden rules of the industry."
"Does that mean she’s been preyed upon before?"
"I didn’t ask, but it’s said that she probably hasn’t; however, she’s not a virgin," Fang Dongxun honestly relayed the answer to Luo Ziling, "As long as she’s with me, no one would dare to prey on her. Actually, what I value about her is her hatred for the industry’s hidden rules. She wants to set up her own company, recruit some girls who want to act, and find a way to make them famous while protecting them from getting hurt. And it just so happens that I was looking to invest in the entertainment media sector, so I partnered with her."
"And the partnership extended to the bed?"
Fang Dongxun felt a bit awkward being teased by Luo Ziling like this, but after a shy laugh, he didn’t mind: "We got together because we wanted to. If I find her to be good after dating, I might even marry her."
"She wants to set up a company to protect those girls, but you’re still dragging me into defiling them, do you really think that’s okay?"
"It was just a joke," Fang Dongxun earnestly said, "But if in the course of interacting, they voluntarily decide to do those things, that’s not an issue."
Luo Ziling replied with a cold sneer, "Given sufficient temptation, anything is possible. With enough power, many can only passively accept a fate of being at the mercy of others. Do you think, if Mr. Fang wants any girl to serve him, they would dare to refuse?"
"I wouldn’t force anyone, but I wouldn’t refuse women who offer themselves to me," Fang Dongxun replied just as seriously, "If women are cheap, then they’re not worth sympathy. They’re willing to give their all in exchange for success; such women, I won’t protect. I support Chu Ming in setting up a studio just to protect those with dignity and talent who want to play their roles well. There are too many women in this world who want fame and success; there aren’t many who are truly worth protecting."
"You make some sense!"
"I want to partner with you to set up a film and television company in our name, you wouldn’t object, right?" Fang Dongxun was a bit anxious to see Luo Ziling’s lack of an enthusiastic response, "Don’t you want to work with me? Doesn’t the Luo Family want to cooperate with the Fang Family?"
Seeing Fang Dongxun laying all his cards on the table, Luo Ziling finally stopped beating around the bush and readily agreed, "Since Mr. Fang has shown such sincerity, why would I refuse?"
"That’s good," Fang Dongxun breathed a sigh of relief, "But there’s no rush, I will take you to meet these people from the entertainment circle one day. Investments in the film and television industry shouldn’t be taken lightly. I know that neither Ouyang Feifei nor your mom has invested in this area. So, I think it’s a good choice for you to get involved. But you should still discuss it with your mom and hope she supports it. Haha, how about tonight, I take you out to show those high-and-mighty celebrities what a real handsome guy looks like?"
"We’ll see," Luo Ziling tactfully declined, "Tomorrow’s a workday, and tonight, I need to cook dinner for my mom and talk to her about the things you just mentioned. If she’s supportive, we can talk in more detail."
"Alright," Fang Dongxun did not dwell on it and readily agreed.
After more casual chat, Luo Ziling took his leave.
On the way back, Luo Ziling went to the supermarket to buy some groceries and sent Ling Ruonan a message saying he would prepare dinner tonight and asking her to come home for it.
Upon receiving Luo Ziling’s message, Ling Ruonan was instantly delighted and immediately called back, saying she would definitely come home to eat.
By the time Ling Ruonan got home, Luo Ziling had almost finished preparing dinner.
Luo Ziling had thought that Wuyue would come back to eat dinner with Ling Ruonan, but to his surprise, Wuyue did not show up.
"Mom, where’s Sister Wuyue?" Luo Ziling asked Ling Ruonan in confusion, "I thought she would come over for dinner too, so I cooked for three people."
"Tomorrow is my first official day at work, and there’s a board meeting tomorrow morning. Wuyue has a lot to prepare, so he’s working overtime tonight." Ling Ruonan patiently explained, but after she finished, she looked at Luo Ziling with a hesitation in her eyes.
"What’s wrong?" Luo Ziling looked at Ling Ruonan curiously, "Did something happen?"
"No," Ling Ruonan shook her head, then smiled and said, "Alright, let’s have dinner!"
Luo Ziling thought for a moment but didn’t inquire further.
During dinner, Luo Ziling mentioned the things he discussed with Fang Dongxun today.
After hearing what Luo Ziling said, Ling Ruonan seemed a bit surprised.
After thinking it over carefully, she responded to Luo Ziling, "It’s good that the Fang Family is taking the initiative to reach out and that Fang Dongxun is willing to work with you. However, I don’t advise you to get involved in the film and media industry. That field is a mixed bag with rampant unspoken rules. Many people say that once you enter the entertainment industry, it’s like a dye vat; no one comes out unstained. Many women who want fame seek a backer upon entering the industry, and you, being handsome, will only bring about more trouble."
Luo Ziling didn’t expect Ling Ruonan to give such a reminder and was surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood her meaning.
"Then I’ll just decline him," said Luo Ziling, who was actually not very interested in venturing into the entertainment industry.
Even though the entertainment industry is full of beautiful women, which is a temptation for men, he isn’t lacking in beautiful women by his side. He believes that these women around him are no less beautiful than those celebrities and are even more pure at heart.
He simply wanted more connections with the Fang Family for others to see.
But after hearing Ling Ruonan’s objections, he backed down and decided not to cooperate with Fang Dongxun in this area, even if Fang Dongxun came under the pretense of helping the underdog.
Ling Ruonan was also surprised that Luo Ziling backed down so quickly.
Luo Ziling, without any hesitation, said he doesn’t plan to work with Fang Dongxun, which made Ling Ruonan slightly hesitant.
"Actually, it’s okay to cooperate with the Fang Family," Ling Ruonan thought carefully and changed her mind, "But you just need to invest some shares and let Fang Dongxun handle it. Of course, you can also make your own decisions. I just hope you don’t immerse yourself in that circle and tarnish yourself."
"Okay," Luo Ziling nodded seriously after hearing her words, "I know what to do."
The two of them then discussed this topic a bit more.
After dinner, Luo Ziling offered to help Ling Ruonan clean up the dishes, but she didn’t want his help and told him to just sit and rest.
While Ling Ruonan was washing dishes in the kitchen, Luo Ziling received a call from his Marxism-Leninism Teacher, Wu Xiaozhen.
"Ziling, I don’t know if you’re free tonight. If you are, how about going out for a bit? Shulan wants to meet up with you," Wu Xiaozhen stated the purpose of her call and immediately added, "Ziling, just come out for a bit. You have to give your teacher some face, right?"
"Alright!" Luo Ziling hesitated for a moment but ultimately agreed.
