Wen Yan, "By the way, Xianxian, Auntie has recently taken an interest in a movie that’s about to start filming. I think it’s quite suitable for you. It’s called ’Twin Killers.’ Have you heard of it?"
Such a famous novel, she had certainly heard of it.
The annual sales champion that had dominated the male readership bestseller list for nine months, it told the story of an ordinary family of four who were suddenly abducted by a mysterious organization. A mysterious person used the parents to threaten the two brothers, turning them into the strongest ’cleaners’ (assassins).
The novel involved a wide range of elements and was full of exciting content, with plenty of humor. The brothers’ character settings were also very likable—genius, hacker, flirt... all the hottest keywords of the moment.
"What do you think about it?"
"A great novel. Is it being adapted into a movie?"
"Yes, with two male leads. One has already been confirmed, it’s Yun Li."
’Double-handed Killer’ + Shangguan Yunli, what a winning combo, this movie is definitely going to explode!
Ye Xian felt his heart almost boiling over with excitement.
Wen Yan, "I think you’d be quite suitable for the role of the younger brother. What do you think? If you like, Auntie will invest in this movie and ensure you get to join the cast."
Ye Xian was momentarily so excited he almost lost himself, until a deep male voice chimed in at his side, "This movie isn’t suitable for him."
Expression turned cold, and all enthusiasm extinguished.
Right, he had almost forgotten, he had already been blacklisted, what was he still talking about resources for.
"How is it not suitable for him?" Wen Yan, "In the novel, the younger son is lively and cute and also handsome, he flirts in a very charming way, full of spirit, I think he’s especially suitable for Xianxian."
Bo Tingshen, "There’s too much high-risk action..."
"Forget it." He hadn’t finished speaking, but Ye Xian coldly interrupted, "Thank you for your kindness, Auntie, but I don’t think my current profile is enough for such a big production."
"How is it not enough? Profile doesn’t matter, if you have the talent, that’s enough. Xianxian, you shouldn’t belittle yourself. In Auntie’s eyes, you are the best and most wonderful!"
Bo Junfeng had just come upstairs when he heard this remark and coughed twice.
Ignoring him as if she hadn’t heard, Wen Yan kept urging Ye Xian, "Auntie saw a video of you racing with someone online last time, and it was so cool and awesome. It immediately reminded me of the intense racing scenes of the younger brother in the novel. If you were to play that role, it would definitely be a hit!"
"How about it? Just give the word, and Auntie will definitely be able to get it for you."
Seeing her sincere expression, Ye Xian simply shook his head, "Forget it, thanks anyway, Auntie."
Luo Yuwei was somewhat surprised; he was actually turning down such a big production?
Wen Yan also felt it was a pity, but her gaze toward Ye Xian grew even more fond.
What a good kid, facing such a huge temptation yet remaining calm and steady.
"Alright, let’s not talk business at dinner. Yuwei’s pastries have arrived~"
Bo Lishan brought out the pastries from the kitchen, lifting the lid and a fragrant aroma immediately wafted out.
The batch Luo Yuwei made was osmanthus cake, not only rich in fragrance and brightly colored but also beautifully shaped, except for the middle... where a strangely shaped piece had been mixed in.
Ye Xian looked over and immediately noticed the oddly shaped piece he had haphazardly made.
What the heck? The piece he had carelessly made had also been steamed, and even placed in the most conspicuous spot in the steamer! It looked like a toad amongst a group of swans.
To prevent others from seeing and laughing at her, she quickly picked up her chopsticks intending to remove that piece.
