Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor, golden sunlight shines in, adding another layer of soft light to the already warm living room.
It was mid-September, and the temperature in Beijing was only around ten degrees Celsius in the morning and evening. The sun was setting and the room didn't feel hot, so Ni Bingyan still asked if he wanted to turn on the air conditioner.
Wei Shujie put down his handbag with a wave of his hand, and sat down in the guest seat. His legs were close together and slightly slanted, and his hands were naturally placed on his knees. He was very ladylike.
Ni Bingyan was not an ungrateful person. When he saw her sitting down, he immediately found the tea can and said enthusiastically:
"Are you thirsty on such a hot day? What would you like to drink? I have tea at home, but no coffee for now."
She didn't like coffee, and she didn't have many guests at home. She thought it would expire soon after buying it, so she wasn't prepared.
Seeing a large cold kettle on the dining table with green mint leaves floating in the pot, Wei Shujie's throat moved unconsciously and he said sheepishly, "Just give me a glass of mint water."
She went out when the sun was at its hottest. Although the car had air conditioning, she still felt a little thirsty.
Ni Bingyan poured tea and brought out a plate of mung bean cake made in the morning, and then sat down opposite Wei Shujie.
"This is the mung bean cake I made with very little sugar. Would you like to try it?"
As soon as she entered the house, he invited her to eat and drink, drink home-made tea, and eat home-made snacks, without even mentioning the reason for her visit.
Smart, hard-working, good at being a good person, but not flattering, beautiful, but not looking at appearance as capital...
There are half-read books and scripts everywhere in the house. There is a pen with little ink left on the side of the script. The door of the room next to it is open, and there is conspicuous fitness equipment inside. On the wall in front is a projection screen that has not been put away...
She didn't know she was coming, so these were her daily routine.
Wei Shujie looked at her and her residence carefully, making a judgment while comparing it with the information he found.
Having just suffered a huge setback with Sun Lizi and suffered a tragic setback in his career, Wei Shujie has become much stricter with his next partner.
The first thing is that you must have enough brains, don't be fooled by a man, and you will burn yourself stupidly, and at the same time, you will embarrass your partner.
There was a lot of fuss about Ni Bingyan's delivery a while ago, and that's when Wei Shujie started paying attention to her.
That time, Ni Bingyan's response was very smart, which caught her eye right away, so she made careful inquiries and came to meet him.
"Thank you for the snacks, but I came here today because I have something to do. If we can reach an agreement, we will have many opportunities to eat your snacks in the future. Now I want to talk about things first."
The streets were full of mung bean cakes. She didn't have to travel so far just to eat them.
Always puts work first, and has a bit of a venomous tongue.
Ni Bingyan silently added an introduction to her character.
"I wonder what's the matter with you coming all the way here?"
You are direct and I am also direct, which is fair in a sense.
Little people never suffer, even verbally.
Seeing that she didn't care about the circle, Wei Shujie didn't hesitate: "You need an agent, and I happen to be an agent. What do you want me to do?"
Ni Bingyan raised his eyebrows and did not immediately bow his head. Instead, he asked her curiously: "Do you know about Sister Sun in advance?"
[I am in need of an agent, but I won’t just choose one. 】
[The artists you led before were so powerful, what qualifications do you have to show off in front of me? Although I'm not red now, there are no stains on my body that can't be washed away. If you look down on me, why should I accept your picking and choosing? 】
[From the moment you walked into my door, you have shown your timidity. I am polite and considerate, just because I have good character, it does not mean that no matter what you say, I will not refute it. 】
You have a venomous tongue, but you also need to consider the occasion.
I am gentle, but not temperless.
Wei Shujie stared at her closely, his little fingers trembling uncontrollably.
Ni Bingyan was seen smiling, with a slightly raised brow, and his right hand resting naturally on his left arm. His snow-white skin made the apricot cheongsam a bit darker.
This question is really heartbreaking.
If she knew about it but didn't stop it, then her manager would be a bit irresponsible.
Ni Bingyan definitely doesn't want an irresponsible agent.
If she doesn't know, then she's even less worthy of cooperation.
Without him, if the ability is not good, what would it be used for?
As for trying to stop it without success?
As soon as she opened her mouth to explain, she lost her momentum and there was no need to talk about it anymore.
"Those who buy things are the ones who buy things. I like your attitude very much. You have to be intentional and we can talk about each other's ideas. As long as we see each other's eyes, we can trust each other and enter the entertainment industry together. Otherwise, we can't do that." I mean, it’s not too late for me to choose someone to lead again. It’s still early for me to retire!”
[I know the impact of Sun Lizi’s incident on my career. If you don’t have any affection for me, you won’t mention her. 】
【I don’t have to do it with you! But I am here today with the greatest sincerity. If you want to have a good chat, just talk to me! 】
In just a few words, the two of them clashed with each other.
Wei Shujie took a deep breath, finally calmed down and laughed.
She and Sun Lizi had known each other since they were young, and it could be said that they had achieved mutual success. Although Sun Lizi refused to listen to dissuasion and insisted on having that damn relationship, causing her to suffer along with it, Wei Shujie was still unwilling to talk about her private affairs behind her back.
If she was really so cruel, she would have abandoned Sun Lizi long ago and would not have stayed with her until the last moment.
She and Ni Bingyan are two-choice candidates.
She came to the interview unexpectedly, which also gave Ni Bingyan a chance to interview her. There was no need to be tense, just to show how strong she was.
She was very sincere, and Ni Bingyan was not really curious about other people's private affairs. He was silent for a long time, and she drank a glass of water before she spoke again: "How did you choose me?"
Hearing this, Wei Shujie smiled, very relaxedly.
"I fell in love with you when you were bringing goods to poor households in Wutong County. You have a clear mind, a long-term vision, hard work enough, motivation enough, and a pretty enough appearance. Well, there are too many advantages, but the first one is what I care about most."
In her opinion, if a person is ugly, he can still get plastic surgery, but if he is stupid, he is really hopeless.
Ni Bingyan also laughed and pushed the mung bean cake over again: "Come, now you can eat my snacks in peace. If you like it, I will make something else for you next time."
Now that we have an intention, we need to discuss the cooperation details with Wei Shujie in detail.
Wei Shujie understood what she meant and became happy.
"Then I won't be polite."
She took a bite of the mung bean cake and looked at the clock on the wall: "It's almost dinner time, shall I treat you to dinner? Let's talk while eating."
Unexpectedly, when they met for the first time, the two unexpectedly clicked together.
Ni Bingyan shook his head: "You have watched my live broadcast, and you should know that my father is a chef. On such a hot day, running back and forth is already very tiring, why not let me cook and entertain you? I fished in the nearby wild lake in the morning. I just want to cook a bowl of soup for you."
Wei Shujie was surprised: "You can also fish?"
"Ang, I like this. I'll take you with me when I have time~"
Staying quietly by the water for half a day will calm your manic soul.
There were too many times in my previous life when I was angry and dared not speak out, thanks to this hobby of saving money and cultivating the mind.
"Good."
Compared with other actresses going out to bars and having sex, this hobby is so healthy.
Seeing Ni Bingyan stand up, put on an apron and go to the back door, Wei Shujie also stood up: "Do you need my help?"
Ni Bingyan refused with a smile: "No, I'll do it in a moment. Do you have any taboos?"
"If possible, use less ginger."
Neither of them is the kind of hypocritical and pretentious person. They say whatever they say and get along with each other surprisingly easily.
After a delicious meal, the two of them had a general understanding of each other's taboos, and the contract was basically concluded.
Wei Shujie wanted to leave, but Ni Bingyan was so good at cooking that she couldn't help but eat too much, so she had to take a walk in the community.
As the two walked, from time to time they met an old man walking his dog or an old lady holding a Tai Chi sword. They were all very enthusiastic about Ni Bingyan.
Seeing her walking with Wei Shujie, they all asked her: "Xiao Ni, are there any friends here?"
Ni Bingyan always had a smile on her face, and accurately called the other person "Uncle So-and-so, Aunt So-and-so," and exchanged a few pleasantries before leading her forward.
"Didn't you just move here?"
Why do you get involved with the old men and women here?
Wei Shujie was so surprised that he turned his head so quickly that his delicate glasses slipped to the tip of his nose.
After Sun Yat-sen's death, her manager can be said to have been bitten by a snake once, and she has been afraid of ropes for ten years.
This took more than a month before I decided to sign a new one.
Wei Shujie had put in a lot of effort to sign her.
Not only did I check her background and past, but I also specifically asked acquaintances about her performance on the set, and finally made up my mind to take this trip.
I thought that with this condition, she could only attract boyfriends and good-looking guys, but I didn’t expect that her affinity would be so strong that she could also attract old men and old ladies?
It seems that the development route can be broadened further in the future.
Her funny appearance was so different from the previous elites that Ni Bingyan couldn't help but laugh:
"Because I am a good person! These experienced uncles and aunts can tell it at a glance!"
Wei Shujie rolled his eyes: "Let's go. It will take more than an hour before I go back. Remember to come to the company on time tomorrow to sign the contract."
Ni Bingyan nodded obediently, packed a bag of mung bean cake and sent her to the car.
Wei Shujie stepped on the accelerator without looking back, but relaxing music floated out of the car.
Ni Bingyan held the courtyard door and smiled, full of expectations for the future.
