The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 591 Let her come

Thankfully, a familiar voice came from outside: "We're back."

"Yinyin?" Xu Jiuyang quickly pushed Li Dabai away, stood up and saw Zhang Yin coming in with two maids, carrying large and small bags.

"Yang-ge is already here." Zhang Yin smiled happily.

“How could you…” Xu Jiuyang looked at her and then at Li Dabai.

"Tell her to come and keep you company," Li Xiaoran pouted, but seemed a little happy. "What, do you think Yinyin isn't good enough?"

"Speak properly." Xu Jiuyang glared at her.

"It's alright, Ranran was just trying to goad me," Zhang Yin said with a smile, handing the things in her hands to the maid. "Because I came here for a reason."

"What are you saying, Yinyin!" Li Xiaoran tried to stop her.

"I'm going to have to say it anyway, so it doesn't matter whether I say it sooner or later," Zhang Yin said, spreading her hands.

Li Dabai pursed his lips: "That's true."

After saying that, she turned to someone and said, "Next year, after I divorce you, I will marry Yin Yin."

"Huh?" Xu Jiuyang was taken aback.

He had anticipated this. Yuanyuan, Li Dabai, and Yinyin had always had a good relationship and often fought together. So even though he considered Yuanyuan his first wife, he still regarded all three of them as equal wives when they were together.

Since that's the case, after agreeing to marry Li Dabai, he was certain that he would marry Yinyin in the future, but... he didn't say it would be so soon.

"What, you think Yin Yin isn't qualified?" Li Dabai brought up his earlier words again. "After Yin Yin wins Miss World at the end of this year, she should be qualified, right?"

"Speak properly..." Xu Jiuyang originally wanted to glare at her again, but he realized what he was saying as soon as he finished speaking, raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then looked at Zhang Yin.

Feeling a little embarrassed by their stares, Zhang Yin said, "I'm going to check on Kamiya and the others as they make dinner," and ran off.

Xu Jiuyang then turned his attention to Li Dabai.

"Why are you looking at me?" Li Dabai's expression was rather irritating.

"Is this why Yin Yin was hesitant about whether to participate in the Miss World competition, but agreed after I persuaded her?" Xu Jiuyang asked with a hum.

"I didn't say anything." Li Dabai started playing dumb again and immediately backed away to prevent someone from coming over to punish him.

However, Xu Jiuyang only sighed: "Really, why bother..."

"Isn't that a bit easy for you to say when you're not in the situation?" Li Dabai, who had already retreated behind the sofa, complained.

Xu Jiuyang didn't indulge her and simply beckoned her with his finger: "Come here."

"No way!" Li Xiaoran scoffed.

“Then I’ll only sleep with Yinyin tonight,” Xu Jiuyang said directly.

"How could you do this!" Li Dabai stomped his foot angrily, then obediently walked over.

However, Xu Jiuyang did not punish her. He simply pulled her down to sit: "After 'The Grandmaster' is finished filming, try to get a classic role for yourself. Hmm, preferably one in uniform."

"Huh? Why?" Li Dabai asked, puzzled, then looked resistant. "Acting is so painful."

"I've never seen you refuse the role that Sister Yuanyuan arranged for you," Xu Jiuyang retorted bluntly.

“Those are all supporting roles…” Li Xiaoran argued softly.

"Also, why do we have to wear uniforms?" she then asked.

"Because I like it," Xu Jiuyang said matter-of-factly. "Even Yinyin knows to compete for Miss World, what about you?"

"Isn't Yinyin competing for Miss World..." Li Xiaoran stopped mid-sentence, then realized what she was saying, glaring angrily at Xu Jiuyang before realizing she didn't know what to say next.

"In short, you should learn from Yinyin," Xu Jiuyang said with a smile. "What about Yuanyuan?" Li Dabai asked after a long pause.

“Yes, Sister Yuanyuan is already preparing.” Xu Jiuyang didn’t give her a chance to struggle.

Putting everything else aside, Yuanyuan's Ye Lanqiu's uniform is absolutely outstanding.

"I know..." Li Xiaoran said indignantly.

"Alright, alright, if you do well, I'll get you a leading lady movie in the future," Xu Jiuyang coaxed again.

"Why would I want a movie with a female lead?" Li Dabai was still unhappy.

"What if everyone else has it, but you don't?" Xu Jiuyang asked.

"What does this have to do with me?" Li Dabai scoffed.

Goodness, you've been completely spoiled by Sister Yuanyuan. Your ambition is even less than it was in your previous life.

"Alright, then I'll give it to Yinyin." Xu Jiuyang said.

"What are you giving me?" Zhang Yin brought over some snacks again.

"Yinyin, you've come at the right time. Once we get the Miss World title..." Xu Jiuyang immediately perked up.

"I haven't received it yet, I'm still practicing," Zhang Yin interrupted apologetically.

“Okay, didn’t get it,” Xu Jiuyang shrugged. “So, after that, would Yinyin be interested in writing a science fiction novel, adapting it into a screenplay, and then starring in it herself?”

Zhang Yin only hesitated for two seconds: "If Brother Yang wants me to do this, then I will do it."

"I'm asking for your opinion," Xu Jiuyang sighed.

“That’s my opinion,” Zhang Yin said with a gentle smile. “I’m willing to learn it as long as Brother Yang needs it.”

Xu Jiuyang suddenly felt a little guilty. He didn't know what kind of personality Zhang Yin had in his previous life. If it was completely different, then he owed Sister Yuanyuan too much.

“Um…” Li Xiaoran then leaned over.

"You're out of luck, this is your turn." Xu Jiuyang immediately rolled his eyes at her.

"Why?" Li Dabai protested. "Just because Yinyin can write a novel doesn't mean I can't?"

"Because Yinyin's mother, Aunt Liu, is a professor at the Agricultural College, this background makes her writing the novel I want more convincing," Xu Jiuyang said earnestly.

"What science fiction novel...does it require knowledge of agriculture?" Li Dabai squinted his eyes.

"Of course, it's about farming on Mars," Xu Jiuyang said with disdain.

That's right, he plans to give "The Martian" to Zhang Yin.

This proposal was initially intended for Sister Yuanyuan, since she lives near the Aviation Academy and her parents work in this field, which would make her creation more credible.

But after Sister Yuanyuan stopped writing science fiction, she never picked up a pen again. First, she worked on other themes one after another, and then she had to run her own company, so naturally she couldn't find the time.

Although he could write it slowly, since the original novel only started being serialized on his personal website in 09, he never asked Sister Yuanyuan, so it has been delayed until now.

It was already 07, and if I didn't copy it now, it would be too late. But I was too embarrassed to do it myself—I hadn't written a science fiction novel for several years, and I had declined several invitations from Science Fiction World.

Just when he was struggling with this decision, he unexpectedly discovered that Zhang Yin was a perfect match. Although her family background couldn't compare to Sister Yuanyuan's, it was still quite respectable. She was also so considerate, and even willing to participate in the Miss World competition to be worthy of him. Wasn't that just right?

Once it's confirmed, we need to speed things up, because we definitely can't just copy the original. Putting aside everything else, the fact that the commander disobeyed orders and insisted on going back to rescue people would absolutely not pass the review. We never engage in this kind of individual heroism.

Of course, it could also be handled as a multinational space project, with foreigners then disobeying orders. This is how Xu Jiuyang handled it in some plagiarized novels he read in his previous life.

The problem is that before he was reborn, he had already seen too many bizarre news stories about Europe and the United States in space exploration. Just the story of how an astronaut was originally only supposed to have a mission of a few days, but was stuck on the space station for more than half a year for various reasons, was enough to dispel the mystique of European and American space exploration.
