"You've had enough rest, it's time to come back. In a few days, the trailer of Home with Cute Pets will be out. You are also the main actor. It's not good to turn down all those promotional notices. The Immortals and Demons is very popular now, and everyone is optimistic about you." Chi Rui said slowly.

Du Qianze was trying to figure out what Chi Rui meant. Li Yao did contact Hai Yang and talked about the promotion, but Hai Yang didn't dare to answer. He just said to wait a few days. Du Qianze also called Li Yao in person to apologize, although Li Yao was not very satisfied with his statement.

"Are you worried about your boyfriend?" Chi Rui suddenly laughed when he saw Du Qianze's embarrassment.

Bringing the coffee to Du Qianze, he smiled and said to him, "Don't worry, I won't be angry and sideline you just because I can't catch up with you. You are now in the rising period of your career. You are a good seedling. If you succeed, you can also make a lot of money for the company. I will not hinder you from moving forward for personal grudges. You also know that I am a businessman. The most important principle of a businessman is to make money."

"Mr. Chi is joking. How could I think so..." Although he really thought so in his heart, Du Qianze's face was very sincere, as if he really hadn't thought about it.

"It's best if you don't think so. I'm not in a hurry for your business. Even if you are in a relationship, it doesn't mean that you won't break up. If you break up, you can really try with me. Maybe you will find that I am the most suitable person for you." Chi Rui reached out and put his hand on Du Qianze's hand.

"Mr. Chi, don't make fun of me." Du Qianze quietly took his hand back and tried to smile and said, "I spent a lot of effort to catch up with that person. Mr. Chi is cursing me to break up now, it's not good."

"From a friend's perspective, I should indeed bless you, but your boyfriend is my rival in love. You want me to bless him, which is too difficult for me." Chi Rui casually withdrew his hand, and the smile on his face was a little less.

"I really... can't afford Mr. Chi's deep affection. I'm just an ordinary person who wants a home, a child, and a bunch of pets—someone to come home to every day. My desires are that simple. You're too outstanding, Mr. Chi.

"If I were really with you, I wouldn't be able to live the life I dream of. I'd probably spend my days worrying about how to keep you from being snatched away and feeling heartbroken over gossip articles about you."

Facing someone like Chi Rui, Du Qianze knew that no words would truly make a difference, so he could only say something pleasant.

"It seems that you are unwilling." Chi Rui said somewhat sadly, "When things calm down, I want to meet your boyfriend and see who can be so obsessed with you, and then estimate the chances of me winning you back."

"If there is a chance, I will definitely let him meet you, but I guess Mr. Chi will be disappointed by then. He is just an ordinary person." Du Qianze said, and took out the phone from his pocket. It was Hai Yang who called. This was the third call from Hai Yang.

"It seems that you are quite busy. I won't keep you. You should accept all the notices arranged by Director Li. I will ask people to pay attention to whether there are any roles suitable for you recently. You should also pick out the scripts when you go back. Don't put down all your work. You can work while on vacation." When Du Qianze left, Chi Rui personally sent him to the door and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Chi." Du Qianze let out a long sigh, feeling that talking to Chi Rui for such a session really took half his life away.

"You finally came out." Hai Yang walked forward and looked Du Qianze up and down, and even flipped through Du Qianze's clothes. Du Qianze interrupted him, "What are you doing?"

"I'm checking to see if you were molested. Why did you take so long? I called you several times, but you didn't answer." Seeing that Du Qianze looked like he had been hit, Hai Yang deliberately teased him to make him relax.

"Mr. Chi was there, I don't dare to answer." Du Qianze said with some palpitations. Although Chi Rui was talking to him with a smile, he still felt that the atmosphere in the room was very tense.

"Just now, a director discussed the script with me. He said that Huang Baiqi recommended it and wanted you to audition. This time it's the male lead, and the subject matter is good. It will definitely be a big hit. Thinking that you can't take it, my heart is bleeding." Hai Yang said, covering his chest.

This drama had a lot of investment, and the pay must be high. How much salary could he get? Moreover, if this drama became popular, Du Qianze's value would definitely increase, and he would get more commissions at that time.

"Then take it, why not?" Du Qianze replied.

"Didn't you say you don't take any scripts recently? I've been idle at home playing with hamsters every day, and my mother almost scolded me to death." Hai Yang complained that Du Qianze said it easily. Because Du Qianze refused to take the script, he didn't know how many scripts he had turned down during this period. In Hai Yang's view, what he turned away was not the script, but the money.

"You can take it, let me see the script." After Du Qianze said this, Hai Yang was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left, shouting Director Jiang, Director Jiang, let's discuss the script again.

Seeing Hai Yang's high spirits, Du Qianze couldn't help but whispered, "You'll be successful." But he also had a big smile on his face.

Du Qianze had put in so much effort to get to where he was now. Although he was not famous to others, to Du Qianze, this was the result of his best efforts. Moreover, Du Qianze was very satisfied to have reached this point, because he had come to his current position step by step, down to earth. So when he had to give up, Du Qianze felt so uncomfortable.

Hai Yang came back soon with a script in his hand. He ran to Du Qianze breathlessly, handed the script to Du Qianze, and said to Du Qianze, "Go back and read this script carefully, and try to get the male lead. If you can't, I'll deduct your salary."

"Why do I remember that I'm the one paying the salary?" Du Qianze took the script and, just by looking at the title, could tell it was a historical drama.

"I don't care, you must get this male lead role. I'm still waiting for the salary to be paid and buy rat food for my hamster." Hai Yang said very domineeringly.
