"Thank you very much, Mr. Lin Beichen, your great kindness. I really don't know how to repay you."

Lin Beichen waved his hand: "I didn't help you for the entangled interests between you. Honestly, such small matters, I don't even bother with them."

Yue Xiaolong felt a bit awkward at this remark. But he knew Lin Beichen was speaking the truth; with his status and power, how could he care about such trivial sums?

Lin Beichen continued: "I've helped with this matter. In my name, extend an invitation to Xiao Mingfei; I am curious to see how capable he really is." With that, a cold smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Yue Xiaolong was thrilled. If Lin Beichen was willing to help, everything afterward would be much simpler. He thought for a moment and pulled a piece of paper from his chest pocket: "What's this?" Lin Beichen looked puzzled at the document in his hand.

Yue Xiaolong explained with a smile: "This is a draft contract I prepared. I wonder if you're interested?"

Lin Beichen glanced at the content of the contract and nodded. Yue Xiaolong was indeed clever; he might be worried that although Lin Beichen lent a hand, he wouldn't help thoroughly. Therefore, the contract proposed to secure a forty percent stake in the film company in the future. This offer was already quite generous.

"Agreed, I accept this condition. And I have another idea." Lin Beichen suddenly said to Yue Xiaolong.

Yue Xiaolong quickly stood up, eager to listen.

"You can sit; no need to be so polite." Lin Beichen motioned with his hand and then looked at Lan Zihua, "I want you to play the leading lady in this film company. What do you think?"

"Certainly not just any random role or a bad movie," Lin Beichen added, "I want well-crafted films from them."

Lan Zihua was speechless with astonishment. She didn't expect Lin Beichen to offer her such an opportunity. Although she was already a boss herself, lacking nothing, being the lead in a movie was thrilling just thinking about it.

"Are you sure? Aren't you afraid I'll mess it up, affecting your reputation?" Lan Zihua giggled as she covered her mouth. Though she said this, her heart was full of joy.

Lin Beichen laughed: "I am both producer and distributor. If you do poorly, I'll replace you. I'm straightforward and blunt like that."

"Alright then, I'll give it a go, try not to make you replace me prematurely," Lan Zihua said softly with a smile.

Initially, Yue Xiaolong was worried that Lin Beichen might propose harsh conditions. If Lin Beichen demanded most of the shares or other excessive requests, it would be a challenge. He had already spent a lot buying this film company and investing in previous films. If he had to invest more, he might not sustain it.

However, Yue Xiaolong didn't expect Lin Beichen's demands to be so simple, just letting his woman be the leading lady. He glanced at Lan Zihua and couldn't help but smile: "This lady has perfect looks, figure, and charisma, embodying a grand leading lady style. Perhaps just a bit of guidance and she'll excel. This demand is easy for me; I can certainly fulfill it."

Yue Xiaolong quickly proposed to Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen smiled slightly, standing up.

"Alright, consider it settled. My requests are these, the specific matters you go ahead and handle."

"Okay then, would you like to stay over at my place tonight? I'll arrange a top-notch guest room for you."

Yue Xiaolong laughed heartily, then turned to instruct the chubby man.

"This isn't a big deal for you, is it, chubby? Go and take care of it."

Upon hearing this, the chubby man quickly scurried over to express his stance.

"This is as simple as can be for me; if you'd like, I have the best presidential suite, or the couple's presidential suite, reserved for you."

The chubby man promptly chimed in.

Lan Zihua's cheeks slightly reddened, knowing exactly what kind of setup must be inside the so-called couple's presidential suite.

However, between Lan Zihua and Lin Beichen, nothing had actually happened yet. Their relationship was in that ambiguous and delicate stage.

Lin Beichen pondered for a moment, also glancing at Lan Zihua, but he finally restrained the impulse inside.

"There are still a lot of issues to deal with, best to avoid unnecessary complications."

"Let's forget about it; I don't need it for now."

Lin Beichen said indifferently.

Yue Xiaolong listened, puzzled, not quite understanding what Lin Beichen really wanted.

But as a subordinate, it's taboo to speculate on the boss's thoughts.

So Yue Xiaolong didn't ask further and instead had the chubby man escort them back.

The chubby man obediently drove the Rolls-Royce, taking Lin Beichen back to his apartment.

Once Lin Beichen and Lan Zihua were out of the car, the chubby man came over, humbly addressing Lin Beichen.

"Mr. Lin Beichen, I'm very sorry about today's matter. If you need help in the future, feel free to ask."

"In any case, I will do my best."

The chubby man promised Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen pondered briefly and then nodded.

Not wanting to linger with the chubby man, Lin Beichen waved him away.

The chubby man initially hoped to chat more with Lin Beichen, trying to deepen their relationship, but seeing Lin Beichen's lack of interest in conversation, he understood.

He then drove away.

At this moment, only Lin Beichen and Lan Zihua remained on the street.
