Chapter 519: Chapter 519: I’m Here to Participate in the Program

In the director’s room.

Seeing that everyone who went to attack Jiang Li had failed miserably, and even Mu Ye couldn’t succeed but was instead countered by Jiang Li, Zheng Xun’s resentment peaked.

What on earth was this woman’s background?

Was her life really that grand?

The show was already halfway through, and if things continued like this, the "Divine Son" would definitely lose his temper, and he would be the unlucky one.

Thinking of this, Zheng Xun started feeling agitated and began pacing back and forth.

Back in the first season, he had used wild animals to help a big shot deal with someone who had offended him; maybe he could pull off the same trick again.

After all, these people had all signed life-or-death agreements, the island was indeed unsafe, and even if something went wrong, the "Divine Son" would clean up the mess for him.

Zheng Xun was quite satisfied with this solution and was about to make a call to get his confidant to handle it when his assistant burst in, flustered.

"Something’s gone wrong, Director!"

Zheng Xun, interrupted, was quite irked.

"Trouble every day, aren’t you sick of it? Can’t you see I’m busy? Whatever it is, it can wait!"

"This can’t wait," his assistant said, almost stamping his foot in urgency. "Someone has arrived, Director. Can you please go greet them?"

Zheng Xun scoffed, "Let the assistant director handle it. Why should I go? Who is worthy of my personal attention—"

He stopped mid-sentence, realizing something was off, his expression changed. "Is it Younger President Jin?"

"No."

Zheng Xun relaxed, "Then there’s no issue. Let the assistant director handle it."

"But, but..." the assistant stammered, "It’s the Gu Family Young Master!"

Zheng Xun: ?!

Inside the VIP reception room, the assistant director was nodding and bowing as he introduced the program planning to the person in front of him.

"...Young Master Gu, as you can see, our program is running smoothly, there are no issues with the investments, and the financial chain has been very stable. As for anything else, I’m not too aware, since I’m just an assistant director with limited exposure."

Zhao Lang was sitting on the red velvet sofa, one hand propping up his head and the other casually flipping through the planning documents.

A few strands of platinum blonde hair fell in front of his forehead, casting a shifting shadow across his eyelids.

His distinctly jointed hand tapped his head intermittently, while the afternoon sun streamed through the window and shone on his diamond-studded cufflink sleeve, and the lingering dust spiraled up along his porcelain white skin up to his slightly bouncing hair tips.

He sat there, motionless, appearing almost like the austere and noble Divine Son.

Even the always-serious planning team leader blushed and lowered her voice to gossip quietly with her colleague.

"This is the Crown Prince from the Gu Family. He’s incredibly handsome!"

The girl next to her also had stars in her eyes, "Right, right! I’ve met so many celebrities, and none hold a candle to him. The aura of someone from a top-tier wealthy family can’t be faked."

"Why do you think the Crown Prince suddenly attacked our location? Is he inspecting? But isn’t it said that he hardly ever makes public appearances?"

"I don’t know, but after all, he invested in this program, and this island is also an asset of his family, so it’s normal for him to come."

Their gossip was cut short by the hurried arrival of Zheng Xun.

His face was plastered with eager smiles, and his voice preceded him through the door.

"Young Master Gu actually came, I apologize for not greeting you from afar, I must make it up to you!"

Zhao Lang slowly lifted his head, looking towards the newcomer.

Zheng Xun was not alone, several young people followed behind him.

Half of them were uniformed waiters, holding expensive wines and snacks, and the other half were flamboyantly beautiful waitresses, their purpose clearly written on their faces.

Zheng Xun thought his arrangements were spot-on.

Although he had never met this rumored future Family Head of the Gu Family, the man was closely connected with Jin Siyue, and he had managed to hear bits and pieces from him.

On the surface, he appeared gentle breeze and bright moon, but behind the scenes, he played even wilder than Jin Siyue, with wine and beauties being essential.

Fortunately, he was prepared, even if he suddenly came over, it wouldn’t throw him into disarray.

Zhao Lang had a faint smile on his face, seeming in a very pleasant mood, but the words he spoke left Zheng Xun rooted to the spot.

"Director Zheng, what is this?" he bluntly stated, "Trying to please me with these? Director Zheng, you’re barking up the wrong tree. I’m not fond of alcohol, only on specific occasions do I indulge, and as for women..."

He lowered his eyelids, showing a hint of mockery, "I already have someone who delights my heart, I keep my boundaries clear. Besides, the people Director Zheng brought are too vulgar, do you look down on me that much?"

Zheng Xun’s face turned ashen.

He had not expected Gu Yu to be such a tough nut, not giving him any face or kind words.

Even Jin Siyue was not so harsh and cold on an ordinary day.

Zheng Xun’s back began to sweat, and he quickly gestured for the irrelevant people in the room to leave.

"My apologies, Young Master Gu, I was too brash, I shouldn’t have decided on my own without notifying you."

Zhao Lang laughed, "You indeed took quite the initiative."

Zheng Xun’s back felt even more numb.

At this moment, he finally sensed something was amiss.

This Crown Prince of the Gu Family was probably here to pick a fight.

With a plan in mind, Zheng Xun, while pretending to pour tea, began to probe, "Ah, yes, it’s my fault. I will definitely inform you in advance next time. But, Young Master Gu, what brings you here so suddenly? After all, it’s usually Younger President Jin who handles these trifling matters. The island is damp and hot, I worry that it won’t agree with your health."

"Oh," Zhao Lang said indifferently, "I’m here to attend the show."

Zheng Xun: ???

Each answer from him was unexpected, and though Zheng Xun was a crafty veteran in the workplace, he was clearly struggling to cope now.

"To, to attend the show?"

"Yes," Zhao Lang smiled amicably, "I find the show quite interesting and since you are still accepting guest participants, I thought I would come to have fun. So, is that a problem?"

Zheng Xun’s mouth hung open, completely at a loss for words.

Was this about just having fun?

If something happened to him on the island, the Patriarch of the Gu Family would reprimand him through and through.

Zheng Xun pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead, "This, we have to follow a process, and moreover, Younger President Jin is the largest shareholder and producer, I might need to ask his opinion first."

Having no other option, Zheng Xun had to drag Jin Siyue into this again.

But clearly, Zhao Lang was not buying it.

"You mean Jin Siyue? He has been feeling unwell recently, and he has already transferred all his shares to me. So now, I am the largest shareholder and the producer."
