They want you to participate in a TV show, and you'll be doing a live stream as a security guar

After leaving the Xicheng Armed Police Detachment, Ye Zhou drove his Ferrari to the location provided by Ju Jingyi.

This is a mid-range apartment complex, which is quite in line with Ju Jingyi's current status in the entertainment industry.

The red Ferrari seemed somewhat out of place here.

As soon as the car entered the residential area, it attracted the attention of many residents. Even the security guard couldn't help but take a few more glances, looking on with envy.

Ye Zhou ignored what others thought, found the apartment building according to the address, and sent a message to Ju Jingyi.

A slender figure hurriedly ran out of the stairwell.

Who else could it be but Ju Jingyi!

Today she wore only a simple white sweatshirt, wore light makeup, and had her hair casually tied up. She looked less sophisticated than yesterday, but more like a pure girl next door.

"Where to?" Ye Zhou glanced at Ju Jingyi getting into the car and asked casually.

"Starry Night Hotel"

Ju Jingyi fastened her seatbelt, her fingertips slightly curled, and a strange light flickered in her eyes: "The food there is quite good."

"OK."

Ye Zhou didn't say much. He gently turned the steering wheel, and the deep engine sound of the Ferrari broke the silence of the neighborhood, smoothly merging into the main road.

The atmosphere inside the car was quiet but not awkward.

"Mr. Ye looks very young. What do you do for a living?"

Ju Jingyi secretly turned her head to look at the man beside her, hesitated for a moment, and then tentatively asked.

"Just an unemployed bum," Ye Zhou replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ju Jingyi was slightly taken aback, thinking she had misheard.

The man in front of me, who can casually pay the full amount for a Ferrari and doesn't seem to care about money, actually claims to be unemployed.

She pursed her pink lips and said softly, "Mr. Ye, you're really joking..."

"I'm not kidding, I really am unemployed."

Ye Zhou stared straight ahead, his tone unusually calm: "I was planning to go fishing tomorrow!"

"This..." Ju Jingyi didn't know what to say for a moment.

Are all rich kids these days so arrogant?

How can someone control so much cash flow when they haven't inherited the family business and are just idling around all day?

Indeed, in Ju Jingyi's opinion, Ye Zhou is a complete and utter top-tier rich second-generation.

Otherwise, there's no way to explain where he got so much money, all in cash.

Ye Zhou simply smiled at this.

He was telling the absolute truth.

He just quit his job as a security guard a few days ago, and now he's a fisherman. Strictly speaking, he's unemployed.

"To be honest, I really envy you people who are born with a silver spoon in your mouth."

Looking at Ye Zhou, and recalling the grievances and helplessness she had endured over the years, Ju Jingyi sighed slightly, "He's so young and can buy a Ferrari so easily."

"Just an ordinary family." Ye Zhou shook his head and uttered a very Versailles-esque statement.

Ju Jingyi was speechless for a moment after his casual remark.

You call this an ordinary family when you casually pay the full amount for a Ferrari?

She had met many rich kids in the entertainment industry, but she had never seen anyone like Ye Zhou, who, despite his top-tier wealth, earnestly claimed to be an ordinary rich kid.

"Mr. Ye, aren't your standards for an ordinary family a bit too high?"

Ju Jingyi couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Really? I'm alright!"

Ye Zhou shrugged and didn't continue.

After all, this concerns his own secret.

Not to mention Ju Jingyi, he doesn't even plan to reveal his parents in this life.

Seeing that Ye Zhou suddenly stopped talking, Ju Jingyi did not press him further.

Having been in the entertainment industry for a long time, she naturally knows when to say what.

Moreover, compared to those who try every means to show off their wealth and boast about their background, Ye Zhou's low-key and casual demeanor is more reassuring.

A moment of silence fell over the room.

"By the way, how was your day?"

Ye Zhou spoke first, asking, "Has it been affected at the company?"

"There is some impact, but it's not significant."

Upon hearing this, Ju Jingyi gave a bitter smile: "After what happened yesterday spread, many people in the company were secretly laughing at me. There were also a few artists who didn't get along with me, who were openly and secretly trying to put me down, saying that I had offended the capital and that I would have no future in the industry."

"As for him... he hasn't contacted me since you embarrassed him in public yesterday."

She glanced at Ye Zhou, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Our industry isn't that big, but it's not that small either. I don't know if you're aware of it, but there are certain unwritten rules. When investors invest in you, there are naturally certain conditions..."

As she finished speaking, Ju Jingyi's voice gradually lowered, and a hint of weariness flashed across her eyes.

Ye Zhou wasn't some clueless newbie; he naturally understood what Ju Jingyi meant.

It's just the same dirty dealings that happen in the entertainment industry.

Capital pours in money, artists sell themselves; it may seem like a mutually agreeable arrangement, but in reality, it's nothing more than the survival of the fittest.

Since we're investing money in filming anyway, we naturally want to choose a beautiful woman who's obedient and fun to be around.

This is especially true for nouveau riche and mine owners.

Similarly, directors also prefer this type of investor because they only invest money and select beautiful women, and don't care about anything else.

Other legitimate investors, on the other hand, not only have to bring in their own people, but also have to manage this and that, and their fund supervision is also very strict.

Even top-tier celebrities are not immune, unless they have a very strong background.

Not to mention minor celebrities like Ju Jingyi who haven't yet risen to fame.

"That's how it was yesterday..."

Ju Jingyi's fingers clenched so tightly they turned white, and her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible: "If I accept, I'll be the female lead; if I don't... then I'll get nothing. The company sent me to receive them for the same reason."

The carriage was silent for a moment.

The Ferrari drove smoothly on the road, the deep engine sound only making the atmosphere more oppressive.

"Then you can also choose to refuse."

Ye Zhou turned his head and glanced at Ju Jingyi.

"Yes! I can certainly choose to refuse!"

Ju Jingyi gave a self-deprecating laugh, her eyes filled with helplessness: "But there's something called being forced to do something against one's will."

"I've been in the industry for several years now. If I had accepted it earlier, I would never still be a small-time fourth or fifth-tier celebrity, struggling to make ends meet every day."

At this point, Ju Jingyi looked directly at Ye Zhou: "At most, I'll just accompany him shopping; I will absolutely not accept any other conditions."

A thoughtful look flashed in Ye Zhou's eyes. He didn't doubt Ju Jingyi's words, but he was wondering what she was trying to say.

Just as Ju Jingyi said, with her stunning beauty, if she had really accepted the so-called unspoken rules, she would never be as lukewarm as she is now.
