"Where is that? Lu Zhihang, you're being too polite. Your role in the movie *The Mask* directed by Yun this year has been nominated for the Best Actor. Moreover, you have a high chance of becoming the next movie king. This contract is really suitable for you," Han Yan said through gritted teeth.
Lu Zhihang didn't know this news yet. He raised his eyebrows and tilted his head slightly to look at Hu Weisheng beside him, who seemed a bit absent - minded.
As his agent, how could he not tell him this...
"Thank you all for the compliment. But I've told Mr. Han my thoughts a long time ago, and it wasn't that long ago. Mr. Han couldn't have forgotten so soon, right?" Lu Zhihang smiled and leaned back gently on the chair. If he were to put his feet on the table, he would look exactly like a spoilt playboy CEO.
Han Yan's expression was quite interesting. At this moment, many people in the office were looking at him with inquiring or accusing looks.
He coughed dryly and said earnestly, "Well, Xiao Lu, you're in the rising period of your career. Our company knows you quite well, and we've always given you the best resources. Why do you have to be so extreme?"
Lu Zhihang let out a laugh and said in a neither - too - light nor - too - heavy tone, "Extreme? I haven't jumped ship, nor have I caused any reputational damage to you. I haven't leaked any company secrets. How is this extreme? Does Mr. Han have some misunderstanding about this word?"
Han Yan's face looked extremely ugly at this moment. It was obvious that he was on the verge of losing his temper.
By this time, Lu Zhihang didn't care what these people were up to anymore. He waved his hand casually, stood up, and patted the non - existent dust on his body. Then he said with a smile, "My meaning is very clear. I won't sign the contract. There's no room for negotiation. If you have nothing else, I'll go home first. See you all later."
After saying that, he walked out of the office without hesitation, ignoring all the ugly looks behind him.
Hu Weisheng followed him onto the nanny car, wiping the sweat off his forehead. After the car drove out of the company, Lu Zhihang seemed to just remember something and said with a hint of coldness in his tone, "How come I didn't know about the nomination for *The Mask*?"
Hu Weisheng in the passenger seat trembled slightly, and Uncle Liu in the driver's seat also paused for a moment. For the first time while driving, he couldn't help but glance at Hu Weisheng.
"I... I was going to tell you," Hu Weisheng swallowed hard, trying to suppress his panic and said carefully.
Lu Zhihang let out a non - committal snort: "Tsk, when were you going to tell me? The day before we set off? Or after the award ceremony?"
"No, no. I just found out about this. This is internal news and hasn't been released on the Internet yet. Mr. Han told me not to tell you for the time being and wait until after the meeting," Hu Weisheng quickly explained.
"Are you his agent or mine?" Lu Zhihang still gave a non - committal smile. His eyes in the rear - view mirror were extremely bright under the sunlight, shining with a hint of mockery.
This question made Hu Weisheng get stuck on what he wanted to say next. He looked extremely embarrassed.
After saying this, Lu Zhihang didn't say anything else. He let out a snort, wrapped himself in a blanket, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in the back seat. Hu Weisheng was extremely fidgety throughout the whole process.
Previously, he thought it was a once - in - a - lifetime good thing to be Lu Zhihang's agent. After all, Lu Zhihang was rumored to be an easy - going person. There were all kinds of rumors about him, but no one said he was hard to serve. So at first, he didn't think it was a big deal and even thought he had picked up a great bargain. But after actually becoming his agent, he thought all those rumors were fake. He really wondered how Wang Wei had managed to be with this "fiend" for so many years. It was truly unimaginable!
Now there was no turning back. He could only grit his teeth and meet Lu Zhihang every day, nervously handling every one of Lu Zhihang's announcements.
Soon they arrived home. Lu Zhihang opened his eyes hazily, greeted casually, and got out of the car.
Lin Wan wasn't at home today. She was having classes at school. When Lu Zhihang got home, he just collapsed on the sofa. He had really been very tired recently. The company had almost squeezed out all his remaining value, stuffing him with all kinds of announcements. They even wished he could use every second of the 24 - hour day.
The pressure on him recently had reached an unimaginable level. He even suspected that if this intensity of workload continued for a few more days, he would have to go to the hospital to continue working. Fortunately, the company still had a bit of conscience. After the huge pressure, they finally gradually reduced his workload, and he finally got some time to rest.
This was the scene Lin Wan saw when she got home.
Some half - dead person was lying on her sofa like a corpse. It was obvious without even thinking that it was Lu Zhihang.
She couldn't help but lighten the sound of closing the door and tiptoed over.
By this time, the sky outside was gradually getting dark. Lu Zhihang had pushed his bangs to the top of his head. His smooth forehead was flawless. Above his closed eyes were slightly furrowed eyebrows. It seemed that he wasn't very at ease even when sleeping, and his eyelids were gently twitching.
One of his hands was gently placed on his stomach, and the other was hanging on the ground. He still tried to maintain his sleeping posture even when sleeping.
Lin Wan didn't know what had gotten into her. She gently reached out and touched Lu Zhihang's long and curly eyelashes. Seeing his closed eyes tremble but not open in the end, she gently curled her lips into a beautiful smile.
She took out her phone and took a photo, then continued to tease his eyelashes with her hand, enjoying herself.
Suddenly, just as she was about to reach out her hand again, a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist. She was really startled. Only then did she notice that Lu Zhihang had slowly opened his eyes at some point. Due to sleepiness, his eyes were only half - open. When he saw her, he subconsciously smiled.
"Is it fun?" His voice was hoarse with sleepiness and a bit deep.
Lin Wan blushed and averted her gaze, answering irrelevantly, "It's late. Don't sleep on the sofa."
Lu Zhihang moved his hand and pulled Lin Wan into his arms forcefully. He kissed her on the forehead and continued in a hoarse voice, "Wifey, let me hug you~"
Lin Wan's face instantly turned as red as a boiled crab. She buried her face in his chest, groaned for a while, and whispered, "Pervert."
Hearing this, Lu Zhihang burst into laughter and couldn't stop shaking, which made Lin Wan shake with him.
"Alright, get out of here!" Lin Wan slapped his hand and said angrily.
Lu Zhihang hugged his wife and dawdled for a while before slowly getting up from the sofa. The exhaustion on his face was somewhat reduced but still very obvious.
