Chapter 113: I Want to be Famous

Lin Yueqi blew her nose and said with a hoarse voice, "Me neither. Auntie raised he just like she was my real mother, so in my heart, she's my mom."

Lu Ting threw the tissue into the trash can and just crouched on the ground, looking at Lin Yueqei who was sitting cross-legged atop the tatami mat. After a moment, he said, "This is the most touching part of this work. It can touch the deepest parts of a person's heart."

Lin Yueqi rubbed her red and swollen eyes before asking, "Is the licensing right expensive? I heard that the TV rights were sold to an American film company for 9.8 million US dollars, which makes that around 60 or 70 million Renminbi? The movie rights must be at least 20 million? Talented authors can really earn a lot from writing."

Lu Ting grinned but he didn't tell her the truth.

Then, he heard her say, "I really don't even know what's money anymore. When will I be able to have tens of millions in savings?"

"Your pay isn't so low. You'll naturally have it once the movie is over," Lu Ting told her.

Lin Yueqi nodded. "Alright. I'll do my best in acting. I really have to thank you this time. I'm afraid I wouldn't have been so lucky without your help."

Lu Ting raised a brow. "Then, are you going to give me a present as thanks?"

Lin Yueqi thought about it and said, "You, open your hands."

The man did as she said.

She took out ten RMB from her pocket folded into a "heart" and passed it to him. "Thank you, Mr. Lu, I will definitely live up to the opportunities you offered me."

Lu Ting looked at the heart on top of the palm of his hands and his lips curved up. Self-deprecatingly, he said, "And here I thought I'd be able to get a kiss from a beauty."

Lin Yueqi followed Tuantuan's example and pulled the man's ear. "Wow, Old Lu, your skin's getting thicker and thicker. Is it because you've been hanging around our little demon queen Sis Tuan?"

"It is all thanks to the girl's teachings." Lu Ting wasn't bothered at the girl's actions, he just asked, "What are your plans for the future? If you're going to stay in the entertainment circle, you'll have to have made plans."

"I want to be famous."

"To what degree?"

"I want to go international."

Only

Lu Ting was silent for a moment before he said, "'Fat Girl Mama' still needs time to prepare. You'll have a two-week window. Even though I'm not the type to chase after stars, I understand this circle has no lack of newcomers. The masses are forgetful so you'll have to plan your time here and what you're going to do from here on out. You've done a lot to break your own reputation due to your grudge with me, so you'll have to find a way to raise your presence, show them a more attractive side to you, and don't just randomly take on roles in the future. If you get a bad script, it's easy to wipe out your hard-earned reputation."

"Yeah, I know. That's why I discussed with Xiao Ke. I plan to take on some reality shows just like the 'Celebrity Exam Competition' to gather some heat."

Lu Ting felt that she was on the right track. He nodded. "I'm rooting for you."

"Lu Ting, you're really a good father."

Lu Ting did not act modest and instead complimented her as well. "You're a good mother too."

Lin Yueqi reached out to give him a high five. "Old Lu, give me five!"

Lu Ting looked at the woman's dainty little hand. He gave her a high five and held that hand tightly in his hands like a promise between sworn friends.

Lin Yueqi could feel the strength in the man's hands. When she received his wordless motivation, her eyes began to feel warm. "Old Lu, from here on out, we're going to be sworn parents for that fat girl. Wait for me to earn more money. When I do, I'll get you something better."
