Chapter 427 The Best Birthday Gift
It was afternoon, and the river view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was still stunning. If this house was worth 100 million, then this view would be worth 50 million.

The Huangpu River is like a slowly flowing golden silk, shimmering with tiny lights, as if someone had sprinkled a thin layer of gold leaf on the calm water, which ripples gently in the wind, making it almost impossible to open one's eyes.

Today is August 24th, and the outdoor heat is still scorching, with the high temperatures refusing to subside. However, with the gentle breeze from the central air conditioning, the indoor temperature is just right, around 24 or 25 degrees Celsius, cool and comfortable, neither too hot nor too cold.

Chen Nuo didn't say anything more. He walked over to Liu Yifei, casually tossed his backpack onto the sofa, plopped down, and gently patted her head, saying, "How did you find it? I don't remember putting it outside."

Today, because it was indoors, Liu Yifei was only wearing a loose, light yellow long T-shirt, with her legs exposed. She was sitting on the carpet in front of the sofa, leaning against the sofa with her legs curled up to her sides.

From Chen Nuo's perspective, faint blue veins could be seen faintly beneath her fair thigh skin, extending upwards from the bend of her knee, crawling across her delicate skin, and disappearing under the hem of her T-shirt.

There, a corner of light blue fabric was faintly visible, its slightly raised outline resembling a small steamed bun.

Liu Yifei took his hand in return, their fingers intertwined, and gently pressed it against her cheek. Her face was expressionless, but her eyes were slightly dim. "It's been a long time since anyone has lived here, so it's a bit dirty. I saw it when I was renovating."

Chen Nuo laughed and said, "Oh, you can even clean rooms now? My apologies for not recognizing you."

Liu Yifei snorted and didn't say anything.

Chen Nuo said, "Come on, are you that unhappy?"

"Ah."

Chen Nuo sighed softly and said, "I knew you'd feel uncomfortable, so I put it away carefully. I didn't expect you to actually find it after searching everywhere..."

Liu Yifei didn't want to either.

She was just looking to see if anyone had long hair, but who knew she'd stumbled upon this photo? The moment she saw it, she was reminded of something she'd vaguely heard before, and a wave of sadness washed over her.

Looking at the baby in the photo, she couldn't help but say, "Chen Nuo, she's so cute."

Chen Nuo agreed, saying, "Actually, the real person is ten times cuter than the photos."

"Really? Can I meet her? I really want to hug her."

“Of course you can.” Chen Nuo paused, “but… not now.”

"why?"

“She’s in Beijing. I’ll take you to see her when we get back. After Inception is released and we get our share of the profits, Qi Da and I plan to set up a charity foundation for her.”

Liu Yifei exclaimed "Ah!" and turned her head, looking at him with a face full of surprise.

Chen Nuo had actually had the idea of ​​setting up a charitable foundation for some time.

It started emerging intermittently around 2008, and has become increasingly clear now. I just didn't dare mention it before because I was short of money.

It wasn't until the release of "Inception" and its box office performance met his expectations that he remembered the matter again and felt that the time was right.

Not long ago, when he was in Shanghai, Qi Yuntian came to see him and told him that Janice Man had taken on a new film in Hong Kong, as well as the latest progress of "The Eagle Catches the Chickens". Pang Ho-cheung is said to be able to finish the script as early as next month.

Then he talked to Qi Yuntian about it. As a result, Qi Yuntian also said he wanted to participate. As he talked, he became very emotional, took out a photo of Qi Chuyu from the orphanage from his wallet, slapped it on the table, and gave a passionate speech, leaving Chen Nuo speechless and having no choice but to agree.

Later, Qi Yuntian forgot to take the photos with him, so they were left here.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei dug it up.

Ugh.

This house is only occupied a few times a year, so there's really not much stuff in it.

Qi Chuyu in the photo was thin and pitiful, evoking pity. Chen Nuo felt a lump in his throat when he first saw it, let alone a girl like Liu Yifei; how could he feel good after seeing it?

As for his own photos, it's a habit he developed in his past life that he never keeps physical copies; they only exist on his phone.

Trying to catch him red-handed is a pipe dream.

Liu Yifei blinked and asked again, "What foundation?"

"It's about helping children who can't hear by fitting them with cochlear implants."

"Huh?...What do you plan to do?"

"Make it yourself."

"No, I mean, are you planning a publicity campaign? Like so-and-so?"

Chen Nuo said speechlessly, "I'm just doing my part, I'll do it quietly. What's the point of publicizing it?"

Liu Yifei stared at his calm expression for a long time, and a sweet tenderness welled up in her heart without her realizing it.

This is the person she loves, and she certainly didn't love the wrong person.

Which girl wouldn't hope that her sweetheart is kind, compassionate, and loving?
She is no exception.

Liu Yifei raised her hand: "What if I want to donate money to your foundation?"

Chen Nuo retorted irritably, "Donate my ass! You should support yourself first."

"Don't underestimate me. I'm a boss now, let me tell you! Won't you still need my help in the future?"

Liu Yifei initially seemed a little angry, but by the end she suddenly became smug, jumped up, ran barefoot into the bedroom, her clothes fluttering, revealing her taut buttocks.

A moment later, she came running back with a stack of documents, slammed them on the coffee table, and said triumphantly, "Look what this is!"

Chen Nuo exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, no way, you..."

"Hehe..." Liu Yifei, with her bare legs completely unconcerned about exposing her light blue panties at any moment, shook her head and said arrogantly, "Am I amazing? Aren't you going to praise me?"

Chen Nuo exclaimed in surprise, "Amazing, really amazing! You've already finished it?"

"Hahaha." Liu Yifei laughed, her eyes narrowing into slits. "That's right."

Chen Nuo gave a thumbs up, then picked up the stack of documents and began to examine them carefully.

The documents are neatly formatted and printed on high-quality paper; most are contract templates or approval letters.

The first book has a red stamp in the upper right corner, and the first page has the title: "Company Establishment Publication," with "Renewal Film Co., Ltd." written in bold in the center. The company's registered address is an office building in Jingumae, Shibuya-ku, and the legal representative is Liu Yifei.

The second page is a copy of the "Contract," which consists of three pages and lists the company's future business: planning, production, distribution, and copyright management of film, television, and other visual works, including actor management, music production, and other related services. At the end, in the initiator section, besides Liu Yifei, there is a note in parentheses: "Agent Signature—Chen Nuo."

“This is the final price,” Liu Yifei said triumphantly, standing on tiptoe and wrapping her arms around his neck from behind. “I even included you in the price list.”

"...Why are you writing about me? Didn't I tell you to operate it under your own name?"

"Just... leave a name, to make it look nicer."

Chen Nuo rolled her eyes helplessly and continued reading. The next document was a "Seal Publishing House" document, bearing an oval company seal with "Kenshin Eiga Co., Ltd." around the edge and "Representative Director Liu Yifei" in the center. A small line at the bottom read: "Approved by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Legal Affairs Bureau on August 14, 2011."

"Not bad, not bad. It's only been less than two weeks," Chen Nuo originally thought this woman had come back to skip her birthday celebration, but he didn't expect it to be over already?

Liu Yifei said sweetly, "You don't know, it took me three or four days just to run around collecting materials. Procedures, translations, certifications, stamps... a whole bunch of tedious stuff, it was exhausting."

"Really? Come here, let me rub it for you."

Chen Nuo smiled broadly, reached out and pulled Liu Yifei from behind to sit on his lap. While massaging her thighs, he comforted her, "You've worked hard, President Liu."

Liu Yifei leaned against him, comfortably squinting her eyes, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Hmph, you'd better treat me well from now on, I have a company now."

"Yes, yes, yes, people with companies, that's impressive."

"Are you going to rely on me in the future?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll rely on you, I'll definitely rely on you the most."

"Huh? Why does it feel like you're swearing at me?"

"I wasn't swearing, I was just having some wild thoughts."

"What nonsense...?"

Chen Nuo gently kneaded her calves from thighs to calves with both hands. Liu
Yifei's legs aren't exactly thin, nor are they particularly long or straight, but her skin is truly amazing. You can hardly see any pores; it's smooth and shiny, and the feel of it is like porcelain. The more you touch it, the more you feel it.

At first, Liu Yifei could chat normally, but when she got to this point, her words became intermittent, and her bottom kept twisting and turning as if she were sitting on hot coals. The last two words, "Feifei," were almost inaudible.

She suddenly grabbed his hand and said, "Wait a minute, I haven't asked you yet. Is Miyazawa going to stay at the company to help out from now on?"

Miyazawa, also known as Miyazawa Eri.

During her last trip to Japan for promotional activities, Chen Nuo chatted with this high-achieving graduate from the University of Tokyo. She learned that the graduate wasn't doing well in her Japanese career and had just left a law firm. So, she asked Chen Nuo to help with registering the branch company. It was also a small test, since starting Huanxin Japan would definitely require more staff, especially in legal matters.

Judging from the current situation, Miyazawa Eri is quite capable; otherwise, how could she have completed such a complex registration process in such a short time? As she said, her setbacks at work were indeed due to some "unpleasant" things she encountered.

Otherwise, with this lazy, fat woman lying on his lap, he probably wouldn't see the license by this time next year.

After listening to Liu Yifei's words, Chen Nuo said, "This is what I think..."

But he immediately realized what he meant and smiled silently, saying, "Of course, you're the president, so ultimately it's up to you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei fell for his trick. She closed her eyes with satisfaction, spread her legs wider, placed her hand between his navel and thigh, and squeezed out a "hmm" through her nose.

After a while, he continued, "Miyazawa was indeed a great help this time, so... I think we should reward her for her contributions, so let's keep her. But you have to make a promise."

"A guarantee? What?"

"You can't do that..."

"what?"

"You know... I can't be as close to her as before." Liu Yifei's voice softened, with a hint of coquettishness. Her eyes were half-open, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she were pouting.

Chen Nuo had heard similar requests countless times in his two lifetimes. He naturally knew what to do in such situations.

He increased the pressure on her hand, slowly moving upwards from her inner thigh, his palm gliding gently against Liu Yifei's smooth skin. Lowering his voice, he brought his lips close to her ear and whispered, "Jealous? President Liu, why are you so insecure?"

After saying that, he gently blew a breath.

Liu Yifei let out a cry, shrank her neck, and twisted her body. "It tickles~ I, I'm not lacking in confidence, it's just... I'm just reminding you, since you're mine now?"

"Oh? Yours?" Chen Nuo placed his hand on a certain spot and gently squeezed it.

Liu Yifei froze instantly. Chen Nuo's movements hadn't stopped; his hand slipped under the hem of her T-shirt, his palm resting on her smooth, flat stomach, slowly moving upwards. Reaching that soft curve, through the thin bra, his fingertips gently caressed the tip.

At this moment, Liu Yifei let out a long, low moan.

Chen Nuo's voice grew even lower, "Then should I perform well and prove that I belong only to President Liu?"

Liu Yifei bit her lower lip, her cheeks flushed like peach blossoms, her breathing became erratic, and she rubbed her buttocks against his knees, unconsciously squeezing her body into his arms.

He mumbled and groaned, "Yes, behave well, you...you go slower...no, don't..."

Despite saying that, she didn't push him away. Instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck, tilted her head back slightly, revealing her slender neck, as if making a silent invitation.

Chen Nuo naturally understood.

He lowered his head, his lips lightly touching the skin of her neck, kissing her from her collarbone to her earlobe, like raindrops, and each drop of rain would make the girl let out a meow.

His hands were busy too.

A hand behind Liu Yifei displayed its level-12 lock-picking skills, squeezing and pinching, and the button opened.

The palm of the other hand then easily and completely covered that warmth.

As her fingertips gently kneaded the sensitive area, Liu Yifei's moans grew louder and louder, echoing throughout the large room.

“Chen Nuo…” Liu Yifei murmured, urging, “Hurry…”

At this moment, her T-shirt was pulled up to her chest, revealing her fair skin, which shimmered with a lustrous sheen under the sunlight streaming through the window. Her hands gripped Chen Nuo's shoulders, her nails almost digging into his skin.

Chen Nuo picked her up in his arms.

Of all his women, in terms of weight, besides Fan Bingbing, this young lady is the only one.

But at this moment, a man's strength is twice as strong as usual. After easily placing her on the sofa, Chen Nuo slowly pressed down on her.

He pushed Liu Yifei's T-shirt up completely, and slowly pulled down her light blue panties, revealing her smooth skin.

He lowered his head and kissed her lower abdomen, tracing the curve upwards. Liu Yifei arched her body, the sounds escaping her mouth growing increasingly rapid, her hands gripping his hair tightly, as if she were forcing him to take minoxidil.

Her mouth was making sounds like she was singing in an opera, with soft, melodious sounds that echoed throughout.

Are you still jealous?

After a while, Chen Nuo raised his head, wiped his mouth, his voice low and husky with a smile, his fingers still lingering on her inner thigh, gently teasing her.

Liu Yifei opened her misty eyes, bit her lip, and glared at him, her voice as soft as cotton candy: "You... ah!"

Before she could finish speaking, the woman screamed again. Her body went completely limp.

Finally, Chen Nuo stopped teasing her and began the final step.

Under Liu Yifei's expectant, watery gaze, her movements were gentle yet carried an undeniable force.

The woman instantly wrapped her arms tightly around his back, and her moans, like waves, echoed continuously in the room, growing more urgent and higher.

The Huangpu River outside the window shimmered.

Chen Nuo was in great shape. The huge room remained quiet until the arc light on the river changed from bright gold to dark gold.

That's why people say having a big house is great.

After the two moved from the living room to the bedroom, even when Gulnazar swiped her resident card to come up in the elevator, she didn't hear a thing.

Gulnazar was there to deliver a cake. When she stepped out of the elevator, she heard a strange sound, like inflating a tire, and a woman's low moan. If it were nighttime or in a different place, she wouldn't mind staying a little longer.

However, at this moment, her face turned red and she didn't dare to stay any longer. She put the specially ordered birthday cake on the table and ran away as fast as she could.

Half an hour later, Liu Yifei came out of the bedroom naked. When she was about to pour water, she saw something extra on the coffee table and immediately screamed.

"What's wrong?" Chen Nuo was startled and rushed out wearing only his underwear.

I didn't see any perverts, but I did see a pink cake on the coffee table.

Of course he knew what was going on, otherwise why would he have changed battlefields?
With such a large floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, you can enjoy the view while exercising. Isn't that great?
"What happened?" Liu Yifei asked, her face flushed. "Who did you order to bring this up? Was it your secretary, or..."

"Of course, it's the secretary."

"Oh." Liu Yifei breathed a sigh of relief, then hit him again and said, "It's all your fault, you must have heard everything."

"Alright, come on, let's eat cake. Now or later?"

"...You! It must be at night!"

"Tonight? That's still a long time away, then..."

"Hehehe, what do you want to do? Ah~~~ Chen Nuo, put me down, let me rest. No, no, ahahahaha, it itches, it's so itchy, I can't take it, I need water, I need to rest ahhhhh~"

On August 25, 2011, Liu Yifei's 24th birthday, she abandoned her parents, friends, and best friends, and spent a birthday without fireworks, a grand ceremony, a press conference, or a dance party. Compared with the past 20 years, it can be said to be a cold and quiet birthday.

It's simply because her boyfriend doesn't like to show his face in public, nor is it convenient for him to do so.

She sacrificed so much for him, but in the end, it seems she didn't get much in return.

The birthday gift she received wasn't particularly expensive; it was just a necklace the man had bought from Singapore. It wasn't a limited edition, nor was it a new product endorsed by a brand; it was simply a simple, delicate white gold chain with a sapphire set in the pendant.

The birthday cake was the same; although it was exquisite and gorgeous, it wasn't particularly special or spectacular.

But she felt that this was the happiest birthday she had ever had.

It wasn't because he spent the whole day with her.

It wasn't because he posted a message on Weibo at midnight that day. Just a few words attracted countless reposts and comments, causing her followers to increase by tens of thousands overnight.

Similarly, not after dusk, but after he had put on a hat and mask, he took her hand, and the two walked quietly along the Huangpu River. No assistants, no bodyguards, just like any other ordinary couple.

Rather, it was because, through these various actions, she finally felt a sense of certainty from the bottom of her heart.

On this day, she turned twenty-four. Love was just beginning to blossom, and her heart was not yet cold, but she was no longer the seventeen-year-old who thought that once love was born, it could last forever.

So, this is the best birthday gift she could have received.

……

……

Chen Nuo didn't stay in Shanghai for very long, only three days.

On the first day, I celebrated Liu Yifei's birthday with her. On the second day, I met with some leaders from Shanghai, as well as Director Zhang from the State Administration of Radio and Television, and we had a chat.

They were really talking about the Shanghai International Film Festival.

However, when asked to become the chairman of the organizing committee, he declined, just as he had originally agreed with Qi Yuntian and the others, citing filming as the reason.

Finally, he only agreed to serve as the jury president for one term at the Shanghai International Film Festival next June, and he will try his best to make the festival more successful, unlike this year, which was even more deserted than Liu Yifei's birthday.

After the meeting, Deputy Director Zhang Peiping and a deputy mayor personally escorted him downstairs, practically opening the car door for him. This demonstrates the considerable pressure this year's Shanghai International Film Festival placed on the relevant authorities.

On the third day, he met Wu Jing and Wang Jiawei.

He had heard Fan Bingbing mention before that Wu Jing had stepped forward and helped at the charity gala, which was considered a heroic act. Therefore, he spoke kindly to him during their meeting.

Not only did he agree to the other party's request for a cameo appearance, but he also encouraged the seemingly unconfident descendants of Dorgon: "Make a good film. As long as you abandon the bad habits of your ancestors and capture the feeling of 'punishing even those far away,' you will definitely not lack a market."

Wu Jing was easy to persuade. He only used a little of his skill in coaxing Liu Yifei and offered a few words of encouragement, which cheered up the kung fu star who had been feeling down for a long time.

But Wang Jiawei really had a headache.

To be honest, if Wang Jiawei weren't Wang Jiawei, he wouldn't have refused. But Wang Jiawei is Wang Jiawei. Conversely, if Wang Jiawei weren't Wang Jiawei, he wouldn't be in such a dilemma.

To put it simply, Wong Kar-wai wanted him to make a kung fu movie called "The Grandmaster".

Yes, it's the one that even Chen Nuo knows about, which was filmed over 5678 years and almost turned into "The Grandmaster of the Generations".

This was too difficult for him; he really had no choice but to refuse.

Although he did owe Wong a favor for "The Message," he could only apologize politely to the director and tell him to go find his trusted aide Tony Leung and not to mess with him.

Wang Mojing didn't say much about his refusal, but... his future schedule would inevitably include another guest appearance.

By August 28th, the fourth day, he could no longer delay.

On this day, Inception's Japanese box office officially surpassed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone's 203 billion yen, reaching 204.3 billion yen and ranking third on the all-time Japanese box office chart.

Ahead of it are only "Titanic" with 260 billion and "Spirited Away" with 316 billion.

The people from Toho immediately bombarded him with a barrage of calls, urging him to fulfill his promise to Japanese movie fans, calm their anxious hearts, and take this opportunity to promote the film in Japan again, hoping to get a boost in the air and challenge for the silver throne of Osaka's second place.

Similarly, in the global box office rankings, Inception is already only a small gap away from Titanic; it's as if it's about to crash into the ship.

This made Warner Bros. a little restless, and they couldn't help but want more. They set their sights on Avatar and, after discussing with Huanxin Hengdian, decided to start a second promotional cycle, with Nolan, Knightley, and Reynolds launching another round of promotion in North America.

Left with no other option, Chen Nuo could only briefly meet with the child before boarding the plane back to Japan.

Besides participating in "Human Observation," he had another important matter to attend to during his trip to Japan.

Huanxin Film Co., Ltd. was also established under President Liu's name. He can also talk to Fuji Television this time to see what to make to earn money from the Japanese.

If it can become an instant hit, and considering that Fuji TV isn't exactly Japan's top television station, if it can be used as a stepping stone... then the Japanese will earn yen much more comfortably than yuan. The key is the subsequent copyright revenue, a steady stream that can make a fortune.

So he really needs to think about it carefully.

However, this soon became his problem. At the very beginning of his trip to Japan, Chen Nuo realized he had made a mistake.

That means he really shouldn't have taken any commercial flights.

PS:

You got scammed, didn't you? Hahaha.
