Chapter 134: Full-scale Boss Has Become the Top Streamer In the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 134: Seeing Through But Not Speaking Out
The tension melted away, and Lu Xun stood up with excitement, a clear joy on his face. "Ah Xu, baby..."
Just as he turned his head, the sight of the Yan family—Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan, and their son—walking in together met his eyes.
Mr. and Mrs. Yan were strikingly good-looking, exuding an understated aura that only comes with time and cannot be obtained in a day.
Especially Mr. Yan, who looked gentle and harmless, but there was something inexplicably intimidating about him.
Lu Xun felt that hidden behind his gaze was a beast, one that, when angered, could tear its enemies to shreds.
"Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan, Young Master Yan... I sincerely apologize for not notifying you in advance and disturbing you like this."
Lu Xun’s body tensed up, standing and greeting each of them, resembling a student caught in the act by a strict teacher.
Yan Zhixu sat on the sofa, her hand resting on the side cushion. "Brother Lu, relax, no need to be nervous."
She then straightened her back.
Pouring a glass of water, she handed it to him. "Here, drink. It’ll quench your thirst."
Lu Xun took the cup from her and drank it all in one go, looking as if he were drinking poison, making anyone unaware think it was something lethal.
Lu Xun was touched. "Thank you, Ah Xu."
Ah Xu was truly a kind little angel, so considerate of him, sob sob sob.
"..."
Yan Jinxiu sat down, casting a glance at Lu Xun with an obvious look of disdain in his eyes.
No matter how he looked at him, he found the manager to be both foolish and overly flamboyant, the kind whose IQ could be contagious.
Seeing Yan Zhixu's concern for Lu Xun, he held back, barely stopping a sarcastic remark from escaping his mouth.
Yan Zheng sat down and raised his hand to his mouth. "Cough, cough, cough..."
Nan Wenshu, looking anxious, believed it and innocently asked, "Honey, do you have a cold? Should I ask the butler to prepare some medicine for you?"
How strange, how could he catch a cold on such a hot day? He was fine when they left home, but suddenly ill after coming out of the hospital? The air conditioning there wasn’t even that cold.
Lu Xun didn’t think much of it and asked out of concern, "Mr. Yan, are you feeling unwell?"
Yan Zhixu raised an eyebrow, poured another glass of water, and handed it to him.

Her eyes were full of understanding. "Dad, drink this. It’ll soothe your throat, you’ll feel better."
Yan Zheng took the cup and sipped, feeling the plain water somehow tasted sweet.
His daughter was so thoughtful, even finding a way to help him out of an awkward situation. He didn’t have to feel embarrassed.
He put the cup down. "After soothing my throat, I do feel much better."
Nan Wenshu looked suspicious. Could plain water really be that effective?
Yan Jinxiu scoffed with a hint of meaning.
The old man’s jealousy was truly immense. First, he was jealous of his wife’s celebrity crush, and now he was even jealous of a flamboyant manager hanging around his daughter.
Hopeless.
Rolling his eyes, he hugged a cushion and took out his phone, starting a game.
He knew that his father had double standards, so this time, he was smart enough not to call him out.
After seeing Lu Xun relax a little, Yan Zhixu propped her head up with one hand. "Brother Lu, is there something you need?"
Her prompt made Lu Xun remember what he had come for.
He grabbed the briefcase sitting on the sofa, pulled out a contract from inside, and his face lit up with excitement. "Ah Xu, Ah Xu, Director Nan sent you an invitation! He wants you to join the variety show 'Starting from Zero' he’s planning to shoot!"
Director Nan's shows were highly sought after in the industry, with many celebrities eager to appear on them.
He never expected Director Nan would invite Ah Xu, let alone send the contract over directly.
