Chapter 1181: Stingy BrosPei Zi Hong also fell into thought when he heard his brothers saying that so seriously. It seemed he was really a small fry. And this fact wasn't even that unacceptable either. After all, he didn't think he could go against President Raelle Xiang or even Master Xian. Even his family wouldn't dare say they could outshine this pair much less him.
"You don't think my Rourou will be able to cause a splash at this time?" asked Pei Zi Hong.
"Are you forgetting something?" asked Hyson. He could actually see through Pei Zi Hong's thoughts. He could accept that he was a small fry but he didn't want his fianceé to be the same. Love... It really made people different.
"What am I forgetting?" asked Pei Zi Hong in confusion.
"Even I know this," said Huang Shuyi. "Miss He Rou postponed the announcement of her becoming the global brand ambassador of a luxury makeup brand. All because of the hype of this engagement. Why do you think that is so? If you don't know how hyped this event had been then you're clearly out of touch with society and I'm shocked to know that. After all, it's been always me who was the last to know anything happening around us."
Pei Zi Hong was suddenly reminded and he facepalmed himself. He really forgot it for a moment. "I guess we are really nothing."
"No, that's not true," said Fang Yiwen. "President Raelle had been the most low-key person. Even if she was named in the list of richest people, or awarded for her work. It was always her name that was mentioned and people never really saw her. Her first appearance broke the server. And people are used to seeing celebrities. President Raelle isn't a celebrity like us. She can still gain so many fans mostly because of the mystery that shrouds her. Think about it, people still don't know what kind of a person she is or what her real background is."
"Mystery is always people's favorite genre," commented Huang Shuyi.
"There is another favorite genre," Lin Zhen chimed in. "It's romance."
"Huh?" They all looked at him dumbfounded.
Lin Zhen was amused by their expression and shook his head as he added, "Isn't it obvious? When Raelle made her first appearance in front of the media, she was accompanied by her husband. They hadn't announced their relationship back then and yet, people could see there was a spark between then that was undeniable. And then, Raelle chose to get on her knee to propose to Shui Xian. How many such spontaneous proposals have you seen around? It was the sincerity of that proposal that made people gush."
"People actually like eating dog food?" asked Hyson. "I'm so sick of it already."
"And yet you're trying to match everyone around you?" asked Lin Zhen.
"I have my reasons for that," replied Hyson righteously.
"Oh? Prey tell!"
"Zhen Ge, if everyone finds a partner, they will stop paying so much attention to me. So, I can be free. That's why, I am bearing with the dog food around me these days."
"You have quite some long-terms plans," commented Lin Zhen,
"I have always been a long-term guy. I don't do short term things. It's either forever or never for me," said Hyson smugly.
A wave of applause sounded around him and Hyson smiled as he took all the applause without any humbleness.
"I like that dialogue. It's either forever or never! Marvelously said! Where did you copy it from?" asked Fang Yiwen.
"Yiwen Ge, I'm an original! I don't copy people. They copy me," Hyson even flicked his hair as he said that making everyone laugh at his antics.
"If you're done boasting, can we talk about serious business?" asked Lin Zhen.
"There is still serious business to talk about?" asked Hyson. "Weren't we done?"
"When did you all even let me talk?" asked Lin Zhen in exasperation. He was so tired just talking to these people. It drained more energy than working in the studio everyday.
"Isn't it about our comeback?" asked Hyson. "Let's just work on it. For now, we don't have to announce everything. We can plan other things slowly."
"But how to match our schedule?"
"I'm available whenever you want me," said Fang Yiwen.
"Me too!" said Pei Zi Hong.
"Same here," added Huang Shuyi as he yawned a little and propped his face on his hand to squint for a moment.
"What about you, Fai?"
"Me?" Hyson thought about it and shrugged. "Actually, I have a lot of free time."
"Aren't you shooting for your other movie that you just signed?"
"I did sign for a new role but I'm not considered the lead. The real lead is Rowan. I'm playing the older version of his role. And I have considerably fewer scenes them him. So, I do have a lot of time. Also, I'll just have to shoot for two weeks in Cheng Province. I'll be back to shoot here after that."
"Rowan?" repeated Lin Zhen.
"Oh, it's Chen," Hyson explained.
"I have heard of him," commented Fang Yiwen. "In fact, I did see his last work too. He is amazing."
"Didn't you see him last night?" asked Hyson.
"He was here?"
"Of course."
"Why didn't you say so earlier? I love talented people."
"It's okay. You bring a coffee support truck for me to the shoot and I'll introduce you to him," suggested Hyson.
"For the introduction, I first have to send a support truck?" asked Fang Yiwen.
"Nothing is free in this world, Ge," reminded Hyson.
"Isn't love free?"
"Who said that? Love is the most expensive thing in this world. Don't ever think that love is free. That's the biggest lie of this world. If love was so free, everyone would be able to afford it and there won't be so many singles in the world." He took a pause and added, "By the way, you all are so stingy bros. None of you sent me a support truck in my last shooting."
"You asked us not to do so."
"So what? I said and you listened? I never thought you all were so obedient. Why don't you just accept that you're all stingy?"
All of them didn't want to argue with him at all so they just took the blame without a word.
