Chapter 2- Status: Reunited

“What do I have to talk about with them?” Ran Shu held his phone between his shoulder and ear as he stirred the canned cat food with a masher. He dug it out skillfully while mixing it with an appropriate amount of water. He put it in a bowl before placing it in a fixed position.

After putting it away, a black cat jumped down from the cabinet. It stretched a little after landing before walking slowly to the bowl to eat the canned food.

Its body is light as it walks in silence. This black cat is as elegant as the elf in the night.

Ran Shu watched the black cat eat and finally picked up the phone with his hand to continue his conversation: “As long as they care about my thoughts, they won’t do any kind of thing to make me angry. Now, you’d make me go to the company to find them? You want me to apologize to them?”

“Oh, that’s the reality. You’re not popular anymore, and the crew doesn’t use you for its projects. That is why sometimes you should compromise properly.” Brother Liu persuaded him with a bit of helplessness in his tone.

“No, it would be a big deal if I suddenly quit the entertainment circle.”

Ran Shu really didn’t care.

He has been popular, brilliant, and has outstanding works.

It is also better to retreat gracefully than to stay angry.

After all…he is rich and confident.

“Okay, I’ll help you tell them.” Brother Liu didn’t embarrass him but instead mentioned other matters. “There will be a party in the company in a few days. The new owner of the company will be there. You can do whatever you want.”

“Okay. I’ll dress up in attendance.” Ran Shu hasn’t asked about the company for a long time, and he has vaguely heard that it is about to be acquired. Nonetheless, he didn’t inquire carefully. After all, he didn’t even ask the previous owner’s name.

After hanging up the phone, he squatted down and clapped his hands to the black cat: “Big brother, come and hug me.” 

The black cat is called Big Brother. It is his friend’s pet, and his friends will stay with him when they go abroad to compete.

It’s a pity…the cat doesn’t want to pay attention to him.

After eating in its bowl, the black cat glanced at him and left lazily.

Ran Shu could only sit on the sofa, snuggle under the blanket, and take out his mobile phone to log in to Weibo.

He couldn’t get in.

The Weibo password has been changed.

He logged into the trumpet account and watched it turn out to be another war.

The elder nieces said that although Ran Shu has a bad personality, he never sprays people for no reason. If he didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t treat Su Diandian like this.

Su Diandian’s fans said that Ran Shu has no quality. He publicly targeted Su Diandian in the show, showing his vitriol. Such a bad artist should quit the entertainment industry.

Su Diandian’s fans did have some action, and it didn’t take long for #RanshuGetOutOfTheEntertainmentCircle on the hot search and also topped the hot search list.

The incident sublimated again, and it was Su Diandian who posted a Weibo.

Su Diandian: [Senior is just joking in the show. Don’t rise to the level of character. I hope everyone can treat this matter calmly.]

The comments help him to complain, and the popular comments are occupied by his die-hard fans.

[Woooooo, Diandian was bullied, and you still maintain your respect for your seniors like this. You are really kind. ]

[Diandian, stop talking to that scum; he doesn’t deserve it.]

[It’s not that we have risen too high yet, but that Ran Shu is too outrageous. Such a person is actually an old senior, and the world is confused. ]

[Please look forward to the release of Diandian’s new album on April 27, “Across the Mountains and Seas” which will bring you into the wonderland on earth.]

Ran Shu looked at the post for a while, then raised the corner of his mouth. He smiled for a long time.

This kid… is really good at pretending to be a white lotus.

He put on a black and white sweater jacket and walked out of the room. While walking towards the elevator, he sent a voice on WeChat on his mobile phone: “Press the elevator for me; I’ll go to your house.”

After that, he entered the elevator and looked at the elevator numbers. In the increase, to the 25th floor to stop.

His community is designed with an elevator directly entering the house. The elevator door opens, and he arrives at a friend’s house.

Qiao Chuangui held the door frame and took a look, confirming that he had come in successfully before returning to his room. At the same time, he explained loudly, “I’m going live!”

Qiao Chuangui, a well-known beauty anchor.

He used to be a trainee in the entertainment industry. Still, unfortunately, his debut was not smooth, so he chose to be a beauty anchor, and he became an instant hit.

At this moment, half of his face is covered with makeup. The left and right sides of his face is different. Obviously, he is using his own face as a demonstration. One is the correct method, and the other is the wrong demonstration.

Ran Shu followed into Qiao Chuangui’s live broadcast room and sat aside. Only one of his shoulders was exposed on the live broadcast screen.

The barrage was very lively in an instant.

[Who is that?]

[Is it Ran Shu?]

Qiao Chuangui picked up the eyebrow pencil again and said to the camera: “Yes, it’s your Ran Shu.”

[Let Ran Shu come into the camera.]

[Uncle ah ah ah! I’m so happy to see you two playing so well! ]

Qiao Chuangui continued to draw his eyebrows at the camera and said at the same time, “Yes, although the group has disbanded, the friendship is still there.”

[Chuangui, did you know that he attacked the juniors of the company? Stay away from him! Run! ]

Qiao Chuangui belongs to the underworld. After waking up, he started the live broadcast directly. He didn’t know the disputes over Ran Shu, so he asked Ran Shu in a low voice: “What news are you making again?”

Ran Shu replied lightly: “It’s nothing, don’t worry, I didn’t pick it up.”

“Also, if the person didn’t take the initiative to provoke you, you won’t give them glances.”

Qiao Chuangui muttered and said to the camera, “Don’t worry, I can trust Ran Shu as a person. He is very good at taking care of people. When I almost quit the circle, he helped me and asked everyone to get me resources. Unfortunately, I was not very good at the end and couldn’t get up, but I always remember his goodness.”

[Why is Ran Shu not in the camera frame?]

[Who is he messaging?]

Qiao Chuangui looked at the barrage and asked, “You didn’t even say hello to my fans when you came to my live broadcast room?”

“I’m trying my Weibo password.” 

In the end, Ran Shu failed to get through his account. He put his phone aside and accompanied Qiao Chuangui back to the live broadcast until two in the morning.

Ran Shu was already in the headlines. In this case, not only did he not converge, but he also came to live broadcast, which naturally brought his own popularity and many people came to watch.

During this period, he also helped to read the list of thank-you gifts, which made Qiao Chuangui’s reward several times higher than usual.

After the live broadcast was over and the equipment was turned off, Qiao Chuangui stretched and sighed: “Have you been reduced to the point where you need to use my live broadcast room to clarify?”

“Isn’t it Bailian? If he can be Bailian, so can I.” Ran Shu smiled and shrugged at him, completely unaffected by the incident.

“I cooperated well, right? The performance marks are the evidence of that.”

“Your acting skills have reached the peak of your life just now.” As he walked to the elevator door, remembering something, he turned back and asked, “You and your ex-boyfriend…”

“We haven’t been in touch for two years. This time is definitely a complete separation.”

“It’s a pity.”

” It doesn’t matter!” Ran Shu entered the elevator and raised his eyebrows at him, “Remember to share the gift proceeds with me.”

Qiao Chuangui watched the elevator doors close together but did not think how to scold Ran Shu.

In the end, he could only mumble: “Deadly wealthy fan.”

But who would dislike having too much money?

*

After the incident, Ran Shu, who has always insisted on uninterrupted training, only appeared for the first time on the day of the company’s party.

Ran Shu failed to log in to Weibo to clarify the previous matter but explained the situation on his side with a few simple sentences from a live broadcast.

Although he did not have much to say, it can be said to turn the tide.

First, it’s not that he took the initiative to pick things up.

Second, the company changed his Weibo password, obviously suppressing him and trying to protect Su Diandian.

Third, Ran Shu is not a person who suppresses newcomers. There are many artists who have been helped by Ran Shu, and some of the ones listed in the later stage even lack the current popularity.

This caused Su Diandian to become the focus of public opinion again.

In the later stage, the company worked hard to deal with it, but the harder they tried, the more people were caught.

——Sure enough, there was no draft to help Ran Shu whitewash, it was all about maintaining Su Diandian, typically only seeing newcomers laughing and not hearing old ones crying.

Ran Shu disappeared later but instead won the sympathy of everyone.

This caused Ran Shu to be blocked in the lounge as soon as he appeared in the company.

The company sent a leader to try to pressure him.

Ran Shu was still in his usual state. The group of people said one sentence to him, and he pushed back ten sentences, like a machine gun that lifted the seal with no resignation.

In the end, he scolded the group of people, which made them leave in embarrassment.

Ran Shu also followed with a smile and said goodbye to them: “Brother Gao, walk slowly, you won’t wear this kind of suit in the future. You are already fat. You should put on this rich bag that matches yours. Looking at it from a distance, you’ll look like you’re carrying a child.”

Brother Gao was so angry that his blood pressure soared, and he fell to the ground with a black eye.

Someone came to help and scolded Ran Shu: “How could you do something to him?!” 

“If you didn’t do it, you couldn’t say that he was angry.”

After speaking, he looked to the side and exclaimed, “The new owner is here!”

Brother Gao, who was still on the ground, instantly became refreshed, stood up and looked around as if no one saw him faint awhile ago.

He was trembling with anger, but he didn’t say anything and was supported before leaving.

With a smile on his lips, Ran Shu followed the assistant towards the venue. He walked around the corner and saw a few people standing on the other side of the screen.

He looked towards the most conspicuous person among them and the translucent screen allowed him to vaguely see that person wearing a three-piece suit, standing upright, with a remarkable demeanor.

His eyes wandered around the place where the man’s black pantyhose and leather shoes were, and he raised his eyebrows slightly.

This is his absolute domain.

After checking him out, he couldn’t help muttering: “Who is it? A newcomer?” 

In the end, he added in a particularly low voice: “I’m getting the same vibes as my idiot ex, and the entertainment industry lacks it.”

After hearing him say the second sentence, Ran Shu looks back at the figure. 

Such a tall and handsome man is really easy to be considered an artist.

It seems that as long as he appears, it will attract thousands of brilliance and everyone’s attention. But the aura around him was cold, as if he was in an unattainable, unapproachable cold zone.

At this moment, the assistant saw that Ran Shu suddenly came back to his senses, and his footsteps stopped.

He also stopped.

Ran Shu’s position at the moment just crossed the screen, and he could see himself behind the screen.

He turned his head, and under the bright light of the crystal lamp, he saw that the tall man was also looking in his direction, and the two of them looked at each other smoothly.

“Fuck…” Ran Shu blurted out.

It’s not like it’s his ex.

Sang Xian stood under the light, with a round of light on his shoulders, assembling the rising sun.

He always had a calm expression, and he didn’t seem surprised to see Ran Shu. He just looked at Ran Shu so indifferently.

Sang’s dedication is very high. He has a tall stature and the sturdy physique of a sports student in the early days. Wearing a suit on his body restrained his arrogance but magnified his coldness.

He had a pair of phoenix eyes, single eyelid, a high nose bridge, and thin lips.

At this moment, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and his expression was not angry.

His gaze slid over Ran Shu’s body, and was easily withdrawn.

Ran Shu looked at him and guessed without asking. He is the new owner of his company.

The eldest young master of the chaebol family wanted to make a fortune in the entertainment industry and happened to acquire a company with his predecessor. It just so happened that on this day, they met again.

Pooh!

What an excuse!

Sang Xian definitely came after him.

Ran Shu wanted to take off his shoes and throw them at him!

The author has something to say:

Ran Shu: Dog man, really can’t let me go.
