Chapter 623: Chapter 623: Sorry, my boyfriend disagrees
Especially the on-screen couple he formed with Rong Yan in the movie, which even received unanimous praise from the media present at the screening.
He also relied on his outstanding performance in the movie to bask in glory at the subsequent celebration banquet, where he reaped the rewards, and of course, his thoughts started to take a different turn.
He knew that Rong Yan had powerful backing, and judging by the producer’s tone that day, the support behind Rong Yan was probably significant. His thoughts were simple; women always tend to give their all for the men they love. With Rong Yan’s good looks and figure, even if she had a sugar daddy, he wouldn’t be at a loss.
As long as he won over Rong Yan, they could secretly date at first, perhaps initially just for the physical pleasures. Once their feelings deepened slightly, as a woman, wouldn’t Rong Yan start to consider things for him?
By then, with a little coaxing, wouldn’t Rong Yan help him land a few more good resources?
In other words, if he secured Rong Yan, he would also gain access to the connections and resources behind her. He could take a major step forward from where he was. Why not go for it?
After all, the sugar daddies behind most female stars in the industry were mostly old, ugly, and unimpressive men. Everyone has needs, and it would most likely work out if he just made a move twice.
That’s how he had obtained quite a few resources before.
Qin Yang adjusted his mindset, and when he looked at Rong Yan again, his handsome face already wore a determined expression, “If you really want to thank me, why not honor me with a dinner?”
Rong Yan frowned slightly. Although she didn’t know what Qin Yang was up to, she could see the ill intentions in his eyes and immediately rejected him without a second thought, “Sorry, I’m busy lately.”
With the makeup artist and the assistant present, his face couldn’t quite hold up to being rejected on the spot. Qin Yang forced a smile and said, “It’s just a meal, it won’t take too much of your time. I’ll pick a place nearby. Mainly because we’ve worked together twice now, we are familiar with each other. I just want to invite you to a meal, as a way to become better friends.”
This lame excuse was clear to Rong Yan, who wasn’t a fool. She looked at him calmly and said, “We can still be friends without having a meal. Sorry, but my boyfriend doesn’t like me having dinner alone with other men.”
Qin Yang, relying on his attractive, sunny appearance, had rarely been rejected by women, but Rong Yan had dismissed him without hesitation twice in a row, making it particularly embarrassing for him. His smile faded, and when he looked at Rong Yan again, his words were somewhat pointed, “I just wanted to invite you for a meal, and if you don’t want to, that’s fine. We are all adults here, there’s no need to bring up the boyfriend excuse. Others might think I’m trying to do something.”
He knew what he wanted to do, and his pointed retort was nothing but frustration at being unequivocally rejected by Rong Yan. He was trying to clear himself completely, acting as if Rong Yan was the one reading too much into things.
Rong Yan had seen the likes of scumbags like Shi Mufeng, so a novice like Qin Yang didn’t even register on her radar. Facing his immediate accusatory turnaround, she unflappably handed the makeup artist a brush and without even raising an eyebrow said, “Which law states that I must go to dinner if you invite me? If you can’t understand me saying I’m busy, then I can only say my boyfriend would mind. My boyfriend doesn’t like it when I dine with other men. If you really insist on inviting me, that’s fine. You didn’t intend to do anything anyway, so why don’t I just bring him along?”
