Rebirth: An Outlier in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 74 Men who can't eat spicy food are no good.

"You guys are so unfair! You ran into Andy Lau, Ge You, and Bingbing in first class without even letting me know! Andy Lau is my idol!"

When Yang Mi heard Little Potato bragging about what happened in first class, Mimi got really angry.

"That's not all! I also got autographs from Andy Lau and Sister Bingbing, and a photo with them!" Little Potato laughed even more happily.

Yang Mi: "..."

"Isn't your idol Nicholas Tse?" Huang Yiliang couldn't help but ask.

"Nicholas Tse is my number one idol, Andy Lau is my second idol, and Leon Lai is my third idol," Yang Mi replied matter-of-factly.

She added in her mind, "I'll favor them according to my mood."

To promote the film, the crew of "A World Without Thieves" naturally chose to use the regular airport entrance to increase exposure. A fan group had already been organized at the arrival gate to greet them, with Andy Lau's fans being the largest.

Huang Yiliang naturally didn't join in the fun; he discreetly used the VIP channel.

"Sigh! I wonder if I'll ever be as famous as Andy Lau."

Yang Mi heard the deafening cheers of "Andy Lau" coming from the arrival gate, and the word "envy" seemed to be etched on her face.

Don't worry! You will.

Huang Yiliang patted Yang Mi on the shoulder. He didn't know who had given him this habit, but he had never had it before.

"If you're willing to support me, I definitely have a chance," Yang Mi said ingratiatingly.

She already knew from Little Potato about the bet between Huang Yiliang and Wang Zhonglei, the boss of Huayi. This seemed to trigger some kind of physical mechanism in her, and she suddenly felt hot.

Huang Yiliang: "Hehe!"

Little Potato: "Hehehe!"

Yang Mi: What does this mean? Is it praising or not praising? These two are crazy!

"Hey—! Wait for me!"

Yang Mi saw Huang Yiliang and Xiao Tudou about to get into a taxi, so she quickly chased after them.

"Sit in the front row!"

The back row was already occupied by Huang Yiliang and Little Potato.

"I don't want to, sitting in the front means paying for the fare." Yang Mi squeezed into the back seat without saying another word.

It wasn't that she was stingy with the few dozen yuan for the bus fare; at this time, Sister Mi was quite generous. Usually, when classmates went out to play together, she was the one who paid for it.

This guy was purely trying to take advantage of Huang Yiliang, especially after learning that Huang Yiliang was betting on equal footing with the boss of Huayi, this idea became even more urgent.

Yang Mi put her arm around Huang Yiliang's arm and pushed Little Potato aside.

"You sit in the front, we'll pay!" Little Potato said irritably.

"No, I'm already seated. Changing seats is too much trouble. Driver, please drive."

Little Potato is too inexperienced and naive, while her sister Honey has been surrounded by adults since childhood. The chance of meeting a sugar daddy is rare, let alone a tall and handsome one, which is one in a million.

If she didn't seize such a great opportunity, she would really cry her eyes out.

"Hmph—! Shameless!"

Little Potato also grabbed Huang Yiliang's other arm and glared fiercely at Yang Mi.

Okay! Huang Yiliang suddenly found himself surrounded by women on both sides for no apparent reason.

Oh! If it were Teacher Su on the left and little Shishi on the right, that would be so wonderful.

Huh?! Why is it a little lion girl? Where are her teeth?

Toothbrush: Yeah! Why am I not included? What am I lacking?

Huang Yiliang arrived at the hotel amidst the driver's envious and jealous gaze, which also seemed to sigh at the decline of morality.

Hilton Hotel.

Yang Mi felt a little uneasy when she saw the exterior of the hotel, which was dozens of stories high.

"Brother Liang, this hotel must be expensive!" Yang Mi asked in a low voice.

"Remove the word 'should'!" Little Potato glanced at Yang Mi disdainfully.

It was her first time in such a luxurious hotel, but since she was on a business trip and could be reimbursed by the company, she remained calm.

Although Yang Mi has been working for several years, after deductions from her acting fees, she earns less than she does from magazine shoots, so she doesn't want to spend a lot on food and accommodation.

"Don't worry! You're sharing a room with Liying, so you won't have to pay."

The company had already booked the hotel before departure; it consisted of two adjacent business rooms, with the only difference being that one of the business rooms would be replaced with a twin room.

"Hehe, thank you, boss. You're so kind. How about I become your secretary too?" Yang Mi naturally put her arm around Huang Yiliang's.

Huang Yiliang's mind uncontrollably conjured up images of Sister Mi in black stockings and a professional short skirt.

This seems like a good idea!

"Save your breath. Our boss doesn't need a secretary or an assistant, nothing at all. Even if he did, he wouldn't be asking you." Little Potato's little mouth chattered on, speaking quickly and urgently.

The little girl was clearly in a panic.

This vixen is taller than her, has a better figure, and speaks in a more affected voice. She's genuinely afraid that her position will be taken away.

"It's not up to you to decide!" Yang Mi retorted to Little Potato.

She'd disliked him for a long time; he had no chest or butt, and was short and stout. Did he think he could just jump up and grope her chest?

"Boss! She's bullying me!" Little Potato immediately called for help, his little face full of grievance.

Huang Yiliang promptly flicked Yang Mi on the forehead.

Little Potato is his precious little assistant, and he can tell the difference between close and distant relationships.

Ah this!

Yang Mi was speechless.

You believe her just because she says so?

Besides, my forehead is already shiny, and you keep hitting it. If I go bald, can you take responsibility?

Yang Mi tolerated it, considering she was staying in a five-star hotel for free.

...

"Don't go through my things!"

After putting away his luggage, Little Potato immediately went to find Huang Yiliang.

"You call me a vixen? I think you're the one who's the vixen," Yang Mi retorted sarcastically.

"What do you know? I'm the assistant, I'm supposed to be by the boss's side." Little Potato glared angrily at Yang Mi.

"Do I have to follow you while you sleep?"

When it comes to arguing, Yang Mi has never been afraid of anyone, and of course, Little Potato is also sharp-tongued.

"Yes! I'm so envious of you!" Little Potato nodded decisively.

Yang Mi was furious.

I won't steal your name, I'll just take your surname.

Little Potato fiddled with his hair in front of the mirror on the wardrobe and even rehearsed a cute expression.

Yang Mi: "..."

"I want to sleep in this bed by the floor-to-ceiling window."

"Whatever!" Little Potato said contentedly as he left.

"I think you're the real slut, tsk tsk, and you still have such a childish face." Yang Mi slandered Little Potato without any mercy.

However, the little potato is indeed quite different.

This was after Huang Yiliang had disciplined her; the little girl had been swearing frequently not long ago.

"Boss!"

"Aren't you going to take a break? We'll go to the set later."

Huang Yiliang had just changed out of his pajamas; he was quite tired from bragging to Xiao Gangpao and his gang on the plane.

"Ugh! Yang Mi's feet smell bad, I don't want to sleep in the same room as her." Little Potato casually gave Yang Mi a crime.

Huang Yiliang was stunned for a moment.

"Is it really that smelly?"

He had heard the rumors about Yang Mi's smelly feet, but he didn't really believe it. Yang Mi wasn't from Hong Kong, so how smelly could a girl's feet be?

"Ugh—! It stinks terribly!" Little Potato said with an air of seriousness.

This girl looks very honest, but if she suddenly tries to trick you, you really won't be able to guard against it.

"Then, shall we book another room?"

Huang Yiliang couldn't bring himself to say something as low as kicking Yang Mi out.

"No need!" Little Potato shook his head. "Boss, I'll sleep with you."

Huang Yiliang: "..."

"Didn't you say we could just go back to the room when we were in the car?"

Little Potato bravely looked into Huang Yiliang's eyes.

"Oh no! It's broad daylight!" Huang Yiliang said hypocritically.

"Why don't we just draw the curtains?" Little Potato diligently drew the curtains.

"Boss! Kiss me!"

Huang Yiliang skillfully bit into the little potato with his pouting lips.

Hey—! This little girl was clearly prepared; she even rinsed her mouth, which tasted sweet and had a refreshing minty flavor.

"suck--!"

Huang Yiliang lay half-reclined on the headboard, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

He is a very loyal person.

Let my younger brother also experience the refreshing taste of mint.

......

the other side.

The entrance to a dilapidated hotel next to Luohan Temple.

Because we were going to film a long night scene tonight, we gave the crew a day off during the day to prepare for tonight's all-night shoot.

"Director, didn't you say Brother Liang was coming? I haven't eaten all day, I'm just waiting to have a good meal." Huang Bo squatted on a blue stone bench like a hooligan.

To help Huang Bo get into character better, Ning Hao hasn't let him wash his hair for a week. Huang Bo's hair is now so dirty that he could easily become a second-class elder in the Beggars' Sect.

Even Yue Xiaojun, who is usually the most slovenly, was unwilling to squat with Huang Bo.

"I didn't eat lunch either!" Yue Xiaojun raised his hand as well.

Actually, the boxed meals ordered by Wang Zha were not of poor quality. Many big film crews only ordered three meat dishes and two vegetable dishes.

In addition to following this standard, Wang Zha also gave everyone in the crew an extra bottle of beverage.

Ning Hao and his group were spoiled by Huang Haidong.

I miss the days when Uncle Dong was on set!

Not only do they eat out every day, but they also arrange foot massage services for everyone to relax in the evening.

Huang Bo and Wang Xun, those two bastards, have already declared that they'll work for Uncle Dong even if he doesn't pay them, from now on.

"Let me make a call and ask! They should have gotten off the plane by now," Ning Hao said, taking out his phone.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later!"

This time, Huang Yiliang has learned his lesson. He has turned off his phone and is focusing on learning human body art from his assistant.

When Bingbing returned to the hotel arranged by the film crew, she also called Huang Yiliang, but his phone was switched off.

"No one answered, maybe their phone died!" Bingbing said.

"Alright then, let's get everyone together and go eat first. There's a promotional event tonight." Brother Lei waved his hand.

During the crew's dinner,

Xiao Gangpao suggested using the story of Lei Zi Ge's bet with Huang Yiliang that the box office would exceed 100 million yuan as one of the promotional selling points.

Lei Zi immediately agreed, as it was indeed a good gimmick. However, since they couldn't contact Huang Yiliang, they had to fabricate an identity for him.

Huang Yiliang had no idea that his reputation as a stupid rich kid would soon spread beyond the Communication University of China.

This guy was still lying in bed, comfortably sleeping with his little assistant in his arms.

"Little baby, wake up." Huang Yiliang nudged the little potato who was pretending to be asleep.

"The little one is asleep, can't hear you," Little Potato replied.

"If you don't get up, Yang Mi will start to wonder where you went." Huang Yiliang patted the girl's bottom in an annoyed tone.

"I'm going to make her give up." Little Potato had a smug smile on his face.

Huang Yiliang: "..."

Sure enough, none of those who later made it big in the entertainment industry were pushovers.

I suddenly miss the kind and caring Sister Yuanyuan.

"Boss, when we're together in the future, can you always call me 'baby'?" Little Potato seized the opportunity to make a request.

"good--!"

Huang Yiliang readily agreed, saying it wasn't a difficult task.

"Hehe! Boss, give me a kiss!" Little Potato crawled over and asked for a kiss.

"No—!" Huang Yiliang quickly covered the other person's mouth.

"What's wrong!" Little Potato stared with his adorable big eyes.

"Um, why don't you go rinse your mouth first?" Huang Yiliang tilted his head back in disgust.

"Ah—!" Little Potato was furious.

"Those things are all yours."

"Boss, you're bullying us too much."

"You even lied to me and said you ate it."

Huang Yiliang was extremely embarrassed. It was wrong of him to lie to the young girl, but his disdain was genuine.

"Sweetie, go brush your teeth and take a shower while you're at it!"

"The boss will treat you to something delicious later."

"I'm not eating, I'm full!" Little Potato said, but he still obediently went to brush his teeth and take a bath.

What's really great about her is that when she gets angry with her boss, it only lasts for a short while, and when she's stubborn, it's only half stubborn.

......

On the snack street.

Yang Mi carefully observed the way Little Potato walked.

It's nothing, is it?

Is Huang Yiliang not good enough?

It's possible that this guy is the one who directly slapped Liu Yifei on the head.

Yang Mi maliciously speculated about Huang Yiliang, and even considered whether she could become sisters with him.

"What are you looking at? Your gaze is strange." Huang Yiliang felt uncomfortable under Yang Mi's gaze.

If he knew what Yang Mi was thinking, he probably would have immediately dragged her back to the room and repeatedly performed his "hitting the bullseye a hundred times" technique to prove his ability.

"No! I think you're really handsome." Yang Mi is very direct when praising people.

"hypocritically!"

"Add one!"

Huang Yiliang and Zhao Liying were in unison expressing their contempt for Yang Mi.

"I'm telling the truth, okay!" Yang Mi said, particularly indignant.

This is the first time I've ever genuinely praised a guy, and I got looked down on. It's infuriating!

"Boss, weren't we supposed to be going to the film set?"

Little Potato was holding a skewer of takoyaki. She ate one herself and fed one to the boss, which made Yang Mi roll her eyes repeatedly.

"No rush, it's lunchtime now. Going to the film set at this time would probably mean treating everyone to a meal," Huang Yiliang said with a cheeky shake of his head.

Yang Mi praised Huang Yiliang, saying she had learned something and that this was how a boss should act.

"What's this? It looks delicious. Three servings, please." Having learned something, Boss Yang generously took out his money.

"No, two servings are fine, I can't handle spicy food!" Huang Yiliang quickly said.

Yang Mi wanted to buy spicy chicken gizzards, something Huang Yiliang really couldn't eat.

"No, I want three servings. I can handle spicy food, so I want two servings," Little Potato immediately raised his hand.

"Ugh! I wish I could possess Zhao Liying's body. She can eat spicy food without gaining weight, and she's so ambitious."

Zhou Mengdie openly expresses her contempt for Huang Yiliang.

She wanted to eat something spicy, but why was it so difficult?

This man is utterly useless.

Huang Yiliang: "..."
