How did I become famous?

Chapter 181 The New Bet (Thanks to the Alliance Leader, Demon Jade Heart!)

"What are you saying?" The young lady turned slightly to the side, giving him a sidelong glance. "Could you please stop staring at me like that?"

"Such a beautiful figure, wouldn't it be a waste not to look?" Fang Bie said, hands on his hips. "Look at me, look all you want!"

My upper body is still naked, so I'm letting you see it freely, aren't I?

Su Mulin glanced at his "one-pack abs": "You should work out, or you'll soon have a 'spare tire' around your waist."

Fang Bie glanced furtively at the young lady's impressive abs and scoffed, "Young lady, do you think everyone has the money and free time to go to the gym regularly?"

A gym membership can cost several thousand dollars.

Not to mention buying private lessons.

Moreover, most personal trainers in gyms are just selling classes. Looking at them with no muscles at all, who would want to buy their classes?

She's not a beautiful personal trainer.

Besides, you can go to the gym every day?

Don't you have to go to work?

Aren't you tired after a busy day?

Working out?

"That was before. Now you have time and no worries about food or clothing." The young lady, having shed her shyness, reverted to her "motherly" persona. "From now on, I'll supervise your workouts!"

Fang laughed: "That's more like it. This is the Su Mulin I know. Why are you being so shy? I thought you'd been transported to another world."

He was actually trying to relieve the young lady's stress.

It's understandable to feel shy when dressed so scantily and being stared at, especially since the young lady is still quite young.

Actually, Fang Bie may be acting like nothing's wrong, but he's actually incredibly nervous.

He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

The feeling was strange; he didn't dare look directly at the young lady, but he couldn't help but glance at her out of the corner of his eye.

Yes, that is, what is commonly known as having the desire but not the courage to act on it.

A moment of silence.

An awkward silence followed.

The atmosphere between the two is strange right now.

The private beach was quiet; it was just the two of them.

But neither of them knows what to do now.

Fang Bie was already starting to have wild thoughts.

Should he apply sunscreen? He was afraid that if he brought it up, the young lady would beat him to death.

What else can we do? Swim? Have a heart-to-heart talk?

Who the hell talks in a swimsuit?!

The young lady is now experiencing a lot of inner thoughts.

Why isn't he looking at me? Is he embarrassed? Or does he think I'm dressed too scantily?

Is it because my chest isn't perky enough? My waist isn't slim enough? Or my legs aren't straight enough?

The young lady was very confident in herself and felt that these were not the reasons.

Then why didn't he offer to help me apply sunscreen?

The young lady has recently been catching up on a lot of anime knowledge, as well as the "pollution" that Zhang Xixi has been exposed to.

She now feels that when she comes to the beach, she should have the other person help her apply sunscreen.

The ambiguity and atmosphere need to be just right.

That's why she asked Fang to come to this private beach alone.

Because others can't see it.

Furthermore, she doesn't like being seen in a bikini by other people.

She used to always wear a one-piece swimsuit when swimming.

Moreover, since she turned fifteen, she has become too lazy to even go to the beach, and she swims only on private beaches or in private pools.

Now both of them are deep in thought.

"What should I do?"

Fortunately, a phone call saved Fang Bie.

"Fang! Is that you? Thank God! You finally answered the phone!"

Fang Bie exchanged a glance with Su Mulin, then raised an eyebrow: "Tom?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mulin perked up as well.

She opened her mouth but asked silently, "What did he want to do on the phone?"

Fang shook his head and asked, "Tom, what brings you to call me?"

Tom, sitting opposite him, was incredibly excited: "Fang! You're finally coming to Hollywood! Thank God! I've been waiting for this day for so long! Where are you now? I'll come pick you up!"

"..." Fang Bie smirked. "How did you find out about this news? Also, I'm on vacation in Hawaii and have no plans to go to Hollywood for the time being."

"Huh? Hawaii? Not Hollywood?" Tom was clearly taken aback. "What about the bet? Fang! You can't break your promise!"

"Sorry, I can." Fang Bie wore a "Light Yagami" expression. "Tom, in the adult world, there's no right or wrong. Sorry, I'm not going to Hollywood."

"No!!! Fang! You can't do this to me!" Tom cried out urgently. "You can't! Fang! For God's sake! Come to Hollywood!"

"Tom, you're mistaken," Fang Bie said smugly. "I don't believe in God."

"But you said you swore an oath by Buddha and Taoism!"

"Sorry, I don't believe in those either. I believe in Old Wang and the right goddess."

"Fang! I'm coming to Hawaii right now!"

"By the time you get to Hawaii, I'll be back in China. Bye!"

"Fang! Okay! Wait a minute!" Tom was still making a final effort. "How about we make another bet?"

Fang Bie smiled faintly: "I never gamble. Goodbye, Tom."

"You want to pursue that young girl surnamed Su, right?"

Tom's words made Fang Bie stop.

Seeing that Fang Bie hadn't hung up the phone, Tom on the other end smiled.

He calmed his breathing: "Fang, let's make a new bet! Let's settle this with a new movie!"

"Oh? How do we bet?"

"Hollywood box office. I won't help you with your movie, let's compare box office numbers. If you can reach half of mine, I'll admit defeat."

"so what?"

"If you win, I'll teach you how to woo girls. If you lose, I want you to join my film company."

Fang laughed: "Tom, you're in your forties or fifties and still single, and you want to teach me?"

Tom laughed too: "Fang, I can tell you don't like watching entertainment news. I change my female companions every year, and they're all Victoria's Secret supermodels."

Some people don't get married because they can't find a partner.

Some people don't get married because finding a partner is too easy, so they're not in a hurry.

Clearly, Tom belongs to the latter category.

Fang Bie: "."

"Are you sure you can handle this for me? Wait, how did you figure that out?"

Because the young lady was right in front of him, he couldn't be too direct.

"Haha, who couldn't see that? Fang, you're still too young." Seeing Fang's refusal to admit it, Tom laughed even harder. "So, do you dare take this bet?"

"."

Fang thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I'll take it! I swear to God I won't stand you up this time!"

"NO NO NO!" Tom hurriedly said, "Fang, I swear to the Old King and the right goddess!"

"..." Fang Bie curled his lip. "Fine! I swear to Lao Wang and the Right Goddess! If I lose, I'll join your film company! If the next movie's box office exceeds half of yours, you have to teach me that thing!"

Tom exclaimed excitedly, "Great! I'm absolutely thrilled! I can't wait to make the next movie! See you in Hollywood!"

Next time we meet, it will be time to fulfill our bet.

Fang, you still don't understand what Hollywood represents to Easterners!

That place is quite xenophobic.

Fang, I'm going to win!

"What did he say?" the young lady asked as Fang hung up the phone.

"Sigh," Fang Bie sighed, "Have fun, I'm going to Hollywood after this."

"But didn't you post on Weibo that you weren't going to Hollywood?" The young lady frowned slightly. "Then how am I supposed to address you? Don't panic!"

It would be better to call him Su Bie.

"Don't mess with me, I have no choice. I've been put in this position by others, I have no say in it." Fang Bie said helplessly, "By the way, don't you have any objections? I said I'm not going to Hollywood."

Sigh, if it weren't for pursuing you, would I have gone through all this trouble?

When other men are pursuing girls, they wear a Rolex and designer clothes, drive their cars with one hand, and say, "I heard there's a Japanese restaurant in XXX that's pretty good. It's going to rain today, so I'll drive over to pick you up in a bit."

And then everything was settled.

And what about myself? My Patek Philippe was a gift, my bespoke suit was a gift, and even my car was a gift from someone's brother.

Even the beach beneath our feet is someone else's private property.

What a load of rubbish!

"No," the young lady said, twirling a strand of hair between her fingers. "You've already made your decision, and I don't want you to change it."

She wanted Fang Bie to shine, to live the life she dreamed of, because she knew of Fang Bie's talent.

Talented people cannot be content with mediocrity for their entire lives.

She didn't want to wait until Fang Bie was old before she regretted it.

But Fang Bie has already posted on Weibo about going to Hollywood, so can she still ask Fang Bie to take it back?

If you like someone, you should adapt to and like everything about them.

Fang Bie is very lazy and hates trouble, but these are the very things that Su Mulin used to dislike, and now they are the reasons why she likes Fang Bie.

This includes things like smoking.

She used to feel uncomfortable when she smelled cigarette smoke, but now she feels at ease when she smells the faint scent of tobacco on Fang Bie's clothes.

To put it bluntly, what she wanted was not for Fang to quit smoking, but for Fang to value her feelings.

Fang Bie now clearly respects her, otherwise he wouldn't actually smoke three cigarettes a day, and he basically doesn't light up a cigarette in front of her.

This is already very good.

"It's okay." Fang Bie shrugged. "Words spoken are like farts let out; they can't be taken back, but they don't really count."

"Okay, so what should we do now?"

Fang Bie glanced discreetly at the young lady's bikini, scratched his cheek, and asked, "Are you... you know, going to get some sun?"

"Hmm, ah?" The young lady also seemed a little awkward.

Her eyes darted around uncertainly: "It's...it's very sunny."

"Should I put on some... you know... stuff? It's not good for a girl to get tanned, right?"

"Okay, getting a tan isn't good."

Actually, the young lady doesn't have the type of skin that tans easily.

But who would tell the truth in a situation like this!

Fang Bie scratched his elbow. "Do you have sunscreen?"

"some."

"My back, could you please apply some ointment to my back? I can't reach it."

"Okay. Then I probably can't reach my back either."

"Um"

"Fatty, what do you think Lao Fang is doing?"

"So cautious, not daring to utter a single word, what else can they do?" Liu Mang lay lazily on the deck chair, his small eyes, hidden behind sunglasses, scanning the various foreign women on the beach like radar. "If they had listened to me, just pinned her against the wall and kissed her, none of this would have happened."

"If I listen to you, I'm doomed!" Wu Kai took a sip of his cola and asked疑惑地问道, "By the way, where are Nie Fang and the others?"

"Oh, they went to maintain the equipment. I told them to take the equipment with them this time."

"Huh? You're not making a movie. Didn't you say you'd go back home after your trip? Why bring equipment?"

"Idiot! You clearly didn't understand what Lao Fang meant!" Liu Mang took off his sunglasses and sat up. "He was definitely being sarcastic! To put it bluntly, he's a complete newbie when it comes to relationships, and he's just trying to find topics to talk about with this rich girl!"

As the young lady's top general (self-proclaimed), Liu Mang felt he had seen through the truth!

Old Fang is really something else. He's definitely doing this to make the young lady cause him trouble! And then he reluctantly agrees to go to Hollywood!

This will make the young lady feel that Lao Fang values ​​her!

Damn it! I didn't expect Lao Fang to be such a master of playing hard to get!

Wu Kai looked completely bewildered: "Huh? Is that so?"

"Of course!" Liu Mang smiled smugly. "If you don't believe me, just ask him when you get back tonight!"

In the evening, a group of people were having a barbecue next to the villa.

After a few beers, Wu Kai mustered up his courage and approached Fang Bie: "Old Fang, when are we going back to China?"

"Going back to China? Going back to what country? Oh, right, I have something to tell you guys." Fang Bie chugged a beer, then stood up, clapped his hands to get everyone's attention, and said, "We'll rest for a week! Then everyone'll have to work hard for a while longer! We're going to Hollywood!"

Wu Kai: "Huh?"

He suddenly turned around to look at Liu Mang.

Liu Mang gave him a look that said, "Everything is under control."

Wu Kai: "."

Am I really going to become the fourth oldest in the company?

My sleep schedule has been adjusted back to normal, and hopefully I won't be on US time again.
