Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 53 Selective Reincarnation

"If you ask me, if there were one-third, no, one-tenth of women in the world who were as clear-headed as Xia Yehe, the world would definitely be ten times, no, a hundred times, better than it is now!" On the way back to Shanghai, Qi Yuntian was driving and said loudly as if making a declaration.

Chen Nuo asked: "Are you so happy that I don't have a girlfriend?"

"…Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Of course it's the truth."

"I am really happy. As your agent, if you decide to fall in love at your age, I will still cheer for you and I will definitely be scolded by my colleagues. Fortunately, Xia Yehe knew what to do and did not agree."

That's right, last night Chen Nuo thought Xia Yehe had changed her mind and wanted to date him. Unexpectedly, she didn't have that intention at all.

However, although Xia Yehe didn't want to be his girlfriend, she didn't want to break up with him either.

Isn't this forcing him to be a scumbag?

"By the way, Xia Yehe sent me a text message. Do you want to know what it said?"

"Why would she text you?"

"Because I'm her best friend. She was afraid that you would be upset and that you would misunderstand, so she asked me to explain it to you on the way. To put it bluntly, from my understanding, she felt that being your girlfriend was too stressful, so she took a step back and thought that the world would be more open. If I were you, I would have laughed my ass off."

"Also, she didn't mean any other reason when she said she didn't want your money. She just really had enough money."

Qi Yuntian glanced at Chen Nuo and said, "You know, the more I get along with you, the more I find that I can't see through you."

"why?"

"When I first met you, I felt that you were very mature and worried, not like a teenage student at all. Sometimes I even felt that this was too decadent and not good. If other people were like you, and won the Berlin Film Festival as soon as they debuted, and had a family background like yours, wow, I don't know how arrogant they would be, how much champagne they would open, and how many beauties they would play with. I guess I would have to follow behind them every day to pick up condoms. But you, the first thing you said to me was that you were going back to Xichuan to study and prepare for the college entrance examination. I have to say, being your agent is really worry-free."

“So you should take a pay cut?”

"Haha, impossible. Well, anyway, you are young, handsome, and your father is rich. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are a selective reincarnation. If you want to have fun, you can definitely spend a lot of money. I think it's okay to play with women occasionally. But I must make three rules with you."

"You said."

"First, you must tell me who you are hooking up with. I don't want you to be on the headlines every day and I'm still in the dark. Promise me, okay?"

"it is good."

"Second, you can have fun and joke around, and you can have as many girlfriends as you want, but before you turn 30, don't even think about announcing your relationship with anyone, okay?"

"alright."

"Third, I understand women. If you have more women in the future and they want to make trouble with you, I can help you deal with it. Just like Xia Yehe, you don't have to worry about it in the future. Trust me, I will help you take care of it. However, I can't deal with pregnant women, so you take safety measures. OK?"

“Absolutely OTMK!”

Chen Nuo discovered that choosing a gay as an agent was a damn good thing in this respect, if nothing else.

It is equivalent to the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department in ancient times. He is a professional in managing the harem.

The two of them drove while talking. When it was time for lunch, Qi Yuntian found an exit and got off the highway.

After driving a short distance along the road, we saw a restaurant with the words "Neijiang Catfish" on it on the side of the road.

The restaurant is not big, and the owner is indeed from Xichuan. Chen Nuo ordered a plate of spicy garlic catfish in Xichuan dialect. Turning around, he saw Qi Yuntian staring at the TV on the wall with bright eyes, watching it very seriously.

An interview was playing on the TV screen, and the person being interviewed looked particularly familiar.

Now we have reached the end of the show.

Host: “Don’t you think it’s a bit difficult?”

The boy smiled: "But I'm not in a hurry."

Then, the narrator on TV concluded: "When Chen Nuo said he was not in a hurry, I was speechless. I suddenly remembered that the boy in front of me was only 18 years old. When he said he wanted to win an Oscar, I thought of the yellow race, discrimination, language and other issues. However, a month ago, no one in the world would have thought that this 18-year-old boy could win the Best Actor Award at the 55th Berlin Film Festival. So, let us wish him the best and hope that no matter what the result is, Chen Nuo will enjoy the joy of movies during this journey."

Qi Yuntian waited until the narration on TV finished, and was speechless: "Oscar? How dare you say that~"

Chen Nuo asked: "What are you afraid of?"

Qi Yuntian looked at him seriously and asked, "Do you think you can do it?"

"Haha, so many people can't do it, why should I?"

"So you're looking for trouble?"

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "But if we don't try, who knows?"

Qi Yuntian seemed to be thinking about something. "If we really want to pursue this goal, when you graduate from college, we will go to Hollywood. I happen to have some acquaintances there."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Sure. I have acquaintances there too."

"You have me, and I am your acquaintance."

Qi Yuntian thought Chen Nuo was joking with him, but in fact Chen Nuo was not. He really had acquaintances in Hollywood.

The two of them casually and jokingly set such a seemingly crazy goal, but they just sat down and waited for dinner as if nothing had happened.

Five minutes later, the proprietress brought the fish up. Qi Yuntian took a bite and exclaimed, "Wow, why is this fish so spicy? Chen Nuo, I can't eat spicy food, don't you know?"

"Haha, if you can't even eat spicy food, how can you follow me to Hollywood? Be young and reckless, and eat quickly!"

The boss behind the counter suddenly interrupted, "You must be Chen Nuo. I just watched the show. You brought honor to our Xichuan. Okay, okay, I'll give you a 40% discount on this meal."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Thanks, boss."

Seeing Chen Nuo's straightforwardness, the boss was also very happy and gave them a bag of peanuts for them to eat on the way. It was because there were no mobile phones that could take pictures in those days. Otherwise, they would definitely make a "yeah" sign together.

After eating the spicy garlic carp, the two continued on their way.

On the way, Qi Yuntian's mouth was as swollen as a sausage, but he suddenly felt like giving an impromptu performance with Chen Nuo.

"Come on, Chen Nuo, now is the Oscars podium. I am the host. I now announce that the winner of the 87th Academy Award for Best Actor is ~ Nuo Chen."

"Haha, I'm afraid I'll burst out laughing then."

"Hahaha, you have to thank me no matter what, do you hear me? Come on, it's your turn to go on stage and give your acceptance speech. Be serious, or I'll turn against you."

“I can’t act it out…”

Qi Yuntian was about to say something else when the phone suddenly rang.

Qi Yuntian picked up the phone. It seemed to be a call from a media outlet. Qi Yuntian spoke in a tone that Chen Nuo had never seen before, and his expression was quite serious. He spoke in a crisp Beijing dialect that was polite and pleasant to the ear. But after careful consideration, he said nothing and agreed to nothing.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Yuntian heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Let's keep our mouth shut now. Tell the public that you're going back to prepare for the college entrance exam, and that you're not going to be interviewed in the near future, and you don't have any plans for filming. OK?"

Chen Nuo: Of course it’s OK.

But the media was not so OK. Qi Yuntian's phone was on the line for three hours, until both batteries on his phone ran out of power. It seemed that the CCTV interview with Chen Nuo was a signal gun. Now that the gun had gone off, all the media, big and small, swarmed in.

Qi Yuntian stopped on the way and bought a case of water. When he arrived at the entrance of Shanghai Film Base, he had drunk half of it.

The two were sitting in the car and looked at each other in surprise when they saw a crowd of people holding various cameras at the gate of the base.

"It seems that all the reporters know that you are here to film. What should we do now?"

"…How about driving your car into it?"
