Entertainment Circle’s Mascot - Chapter 5

The next morning, Lian Qing woke up under the influence of the biological clock. He looked vaguely at the ceiling and recalled his dream last night.

The first half was real, but the second half after he left was unknown. He was baffled at the thought that, maybe what Sister Sha said to him yesterday had affected him.

How could his master let him go down the mountain because of his big appetite?! How could his younger martial brother still doze off when seeing him off?!

It took him several minutes to persuade himself, and Lian Qing slowly got up to wash up.

Because he was not familiar with the environment here and was afraid that Sister Sha would suddenly come to him, he simply played with the computer equipped with the hotel in his room.

When he was in high school, there was a computer class in his school, so he still knew some simple operations. He also has a Weibo account, which was registered by his former deskmate. However, because he did not have a mobile phone he hadn’t logged into the account for two years.

He logged into his zombie-like Weibo account. The last microblog on it was posted two years ago. It was a group photo of him and several classmates.

Looking through the accounts of some of his former classmates that he followed, he found that there were not a lot of posts. He guessed that everyone didn’t use the software frequently, so he quit his account and played a minesweeping game.

When Sister Sha came over, she entered the room and saw the computer on the desk, which had the minesweeping game interface. She was quite surprised and said, “Don’t children your age like playing king and chicken? Why do you play minesweeping?”

“I haven’t played those games.” Lian Qing has never played hand games or online games. The only things he knows are computer minesweeping and playing cards. Oh, he played QQ

vegetable stealing with the help of his classmates in junior high school. Unfortunately, few people seem to play that game now. After several years, he had already forgotten the account number and password.

“It’s okay, I’ll teach you later.” Sister Sha closed the door and asked, “What are your next plans?”

Lian Qing’s face was a little confused. After thinking about it, he said, “I should find a job that includes food and lodging first, and then I will plan slowly.”

Sure enough! Sister Sha smiled and said, “In that case, why don’t you come to work for me? I’ll pay 5000 yuan at the end of the month, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Let’s talk about the share of future earnings in detail.”

Five thousand, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation! Lian Qing was a little moved, but…

“Sister Sha, what kind of job is it? Is it to be your bodyguard?” He thought about it. Maybe she had seen his skill. He was not boasting. Last night, those bodyguards in the outer circle of the recording scene couldn’t beat him.

“Bodyguard, my ass, you can’t afford to be a bodyguard with that face!” Sister Sha hated iron for not becoming steel

and said, “I want to sign you to my studio as a star!”

Lian Qing foolishly pointed at himself: “Me, become a star?”

Sister Sha nodded decisively.

“But I can’t sing, dance or act……”

Sister Sha shook her head and said with a smile, “Those can be learned, and I will arrange for someone to teach you. Little monk, you have a beautiful face, long legs, and excellent physical fitness. With a little hype, you’re sure to catch fire!”

“If you follow your Sister Sha, food, clothing, housing, and transportation will not be a problem. I will not treat you unfairly, and I will sign the contract with you according to the best terms. Anyway, you already call me Sister.”

Food, clothing, housing, and transportation are serious problems for Lian Qing, and also problems he urgently needs to solve. He was not afraid that Sister Sha would pit him

because he had nothing. In addition, although he hadn’t had much contact with Sister Sha, Lian Qing could read people very well – Sister Sha’s character is absolutely trustworthy. Because of this, he was afraid that he might accidentally defraud Sister Sha in the future.

“Well, Sister Sha. I’ll sign a contract with you to be a star first. If I can’t make a profit, if I don’t become popular, then I’ll be your bodyguard then!” Lian Qing said very seriously.

Sister Sha froze for a moment and then grinned. She patted Lian Qing’s shoulder and said, “OK, Little Monk, let’s put your things here first and go out for lunch first. We will make arrangements later.”

Lian Qing responded, waited for Sister Sha to put on her mask and sunglasses, and then opened the door.

Outside the door, there was a man beside Sister Sha’s assistant. The man was wearing a mask and a cap. When he saw them coming out, he complained, “Sister Sha, why didn’t you bring me along with you when you took the little monk out to dinner?”

Sister Sha angrily rolled her eyes through the dark glasses and said, “Zhao Chengyi, you… forget it. Let’s go.”

“Thank you, Sister Sha. Sister Sha is really beautiful and kind-hearted!” Zhao Chengyi shamelessly complimented Sister Sha, whom he usually avoided as if she was a tigress. After the compliment, he still remembered to say hello to the little monk.

“Little monk, how are you? Did you sleep well last night?”

“Not bad.” Lian Qing answered lightly and quickened his pace to follow Sister Sha closely. Zhao Chengyi was too familiar with him, and his overly enthusiastic attitude always makes Lian Qing feel very stressed.

Sister Sha turned her head and asked him, “What do you want to eat?”

, … Finally, the grilled meat is covered with a layer of sauce, and the moment it enters the mouth it is fragrant and spicy. The meat tastes amazing ……”

“Zhao Chengyi, you were poisoned by the food program, weren’t you?” Sister Sha rolled her eyes and said, “I’m the host. I’m the final say on what to eat!”

Lian Qing spinelessly swallowed his saliva, reached out and gently pulled Sister Sha’s sunscreen shirt, and whispered: “Sister Sha, why don’t we eat barbecue?”

“Outrageous!” Sister Sha looked at him helplessly, turned to her assistant, and said, “Come on, search which barbecue restaurant nearby is better.”

Lian Qing immediately smiled and said in a sweet and sticky voice, “Thank you, Sister Sha!”

Looking at his sweet smile, Sister Sha couldn’t help smiling.

The ignored Zang Chengyi’s mouth shriveled. He was a powerful member of Sister Sha’s studio but was not as good as the little monk in Sister Sha’s eyes…

Although the little monk was very cute and interesting, there was nothing wrong with him, although he also wanted to hit it off with the little monk…

The three of them, together with Sister Sha’s assistant went to the barbecue shop together and asked for a small private room.

After the waiter had finished bringing all the dishes, the assistant closed the door of the private room. Sister Sha and Zhao Chengyi took off masks and other things.

Sister Sha picked up the cup containing barley tea, stood up, smiled at Lian Qing and Zhao Cheng, and said, “In the future, everyone will be a family. Let’s drink tea instead of wine. Cheers!”

Both of them stood up with their wine glasses, touched them with Sister Sha, and drank them all at once. Then Zhao Chengyi consciously took over the barbecue task that the assistant was not skilled in. He spread the meat on the stove and said, “Sister Sha, you are too fast. You signed the person just after one night.”

Last night, he had this kind of premonition, because the little monk was really good-looking. In addition, he had a wonderful sense of variety. If he were the boss, he would definitely want to sign this person.

Last night, not only Sister Sha but also their guest, Jia Ge, who had his own studio, had been looking at the little monk with sizing eyes. He had been thinking it wouldn’t be long until he met the little monk in the entertainment industry.

But he didn’t expect Sister Sha to move so fast. However, it was all right. He smiled and said, “Little monk, you will be my younger martial brother in the future. If you have something to do outside, you can give them Zhao Chengyi’s name. I will cover you!”
