Chapter 51: Look at How Observant He Is!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In Zhonghai city center, in Grand Twin Towers.

Bai Haochen, CEO of Bai Corporation, was sitting in his office and reading the documents which his employees had sent him.

“Boss.” His secretary came in and said, “We’ve found something about Wang Hao. Here’s the information we’ve gathered. Please have a look.”

“Hm, bring it to me.” Bai Haochen put down the documents he was holding, then took the materials from his secretary and started reading.

“Looks like this Wang Hao is just an ordinary person.” Bai Haochen flipped through the pages and smiled. “He persuaded the screenwriter to amend the script with his own ideas, and he’s writing a novel to make money. I guess he’s a self-motivated man. Hm, Wayward Ren must be the son of the mining company owner, Ren Xinpeng, right… Is he truly not planning to ask for any benefits?”

“Not at the moment.” The secretary hesitated for a second, then asked, “Boss, what should we do next…”

“We should definitely stay alert.” Bai Haochen touched his chin and said, “Just keep observing him for now. As long as he doesn’t try to take advantage of Elegant, I won’t do anything to him. Let me check out his novel and see if it’s good.”

As the top businessman in the country and the leader of the Bai family, Bai Haochen certainly had good taste.

He quickly went to the page for “Battle Through the Heavens” and began reading.

He read rapidly and kept nodding his head as he did so. “Hm, it is indeed intriguing. At least, it makes me want to continue reading. Looks like he really wants to earn money with this novel… ‘Every dog has its day?’ I like it…”

Bai Haochen soon finished the five chapters. He then smiled and said, “It’s quality work. His self-motivation is worth encouraging.”

“Hm? This is…” A while later, the secretary suddenly noticed that some readers were arguing in the book review section, and he became curious. Investigating and following leads had always been something he was good at. In just a moment, he found Longshan Forum, and immediately went inside. Then, he discovered the chaotic gossip section on Longshan, and began to read every single post.

“What have you found?” Bai Haochen asked while the secretary was reading the post. “You look quite serious. Did you discover something interesting?”

“Boss,” the secretary quickly replied, “it seems that there’s controversy over Wang Hao’s novel.”

“Huh? What happened?” Bai Haochen smiled thinly and said, “Send me the link. Let me see.”

“Okay.” The secretary immediately sent him the link.

“Longshan Forum?” Bai Haochen started reading the post. As the leader of the Bai family, it didn’t take him long to understand the whole situation. He smiled and said, “Interesting. He’s encountering trouble right after he released the novel, haha.”

“Boss,” the secretary asked discreetly, “should we… give him a hand?”

“No.” Such an incident wasn’t important enough for Bai Haochen to worry about. He didn’t pay it any mind. “The young man must experience difficulties like this to develop a successful career. If he needs someone’s help every time something happens, how far can he go? This isn’t a big deal. Let’s see how he deals with it! Now that he’s entered my sight, I can’t just let him sit there and wait for success to come. Keep monitoring the post, and tell me when there are any new developments.”

“Okay, boss.”

…

At that moment, those who supported Wang Hao and those who supported Heaven Xiao were arguing endlessly on Longshan Forum. Heaven Xiao looked at the rising stats for “Battle Through the Heavens” and was completely enraged.

Heaven Xiao: “What the hell! It’s like we’re helping him promote his novel! F*ck!”

Smiling Angel: “I didn’t expect this to happen either. Master Xiao, what should we do next? Shall we think of another way?”

Heaven Xiao: “Let’s just forget about it. Damn, if we continue with this and he throws something else out, we’ll be helping him again.”

Smiling Angel: “Well… okay, looks like that’s the only choice we have for now.”

…

Looking at the soaring number of bookmarks, Wang Hao beamed widely. “It’s rising at the right pace. Hm, I have to create more hype. I can’t waste such a great opportunity! Hahaha!”

I got more than a hundred bookmarks and became a “leader” on the fan list today. That’s quite incredible for a novel with only 15,000 words. Happiness lies in contentment!

Wang Hao packed his things and checked the time. It’s five, I’m off!

“Wang.” Wang Hao was about to knock off after a long day, when the screenwriter Li Fei came over. “Let’s call it a day! Are you doing anything tonight? If not, come to dinner with me.”

Huh? Dinner? With Mr. Li?

“Ah, I’m free tonight. But Mr. Li, why…” Wang Hao was a bit confused. What did Li Fei mean?

“That’s great.” Li Fei smiled and said, “You made me your teacher today, so as a teacher, I should do something in return. Let’s go; Gao is also joining us. Right, I saw you with that girl called Moon Zheng. As far as I remember, she’s pretty good-looking. If you’re still single, shall we bring her along?”

The first part of what he said was fine. He was just doing something a teacher would do, and as a senior, was trying to take care of his student.

The second part was obvious: “If you’re not seeing anyone, I’ll fix you up with Moon Zheng…”

Look at how observant he was!

In the past, Wang Hao would never reject such a suggestion, since Moon Zheng was quite a beauty, after all. However, Ice Queen’s face appeared in Wang Hao’s mind for some reason…

“Ah, I’m fine with that.” Wang Hao agreed right away. “I’m not seeing anyone right now, but I want to focus on my career first, so I’m not planning to date for now…”

This excuse made sense to Li Fei. He nodded and said, “Okay, as you like. I won’t invite her, then?”

“Well…” Moon Zheng had asked him to arrange an important role for her. Wang Hao scratched his head, then said right away, “Bring her along. She asked me to get her a part…”

“Haha, you brat. You might not say it, but your heart wants her to come, right?” Li Fei laughed and patted Wang Hao’s shoulder. “Very well, whatever you say. It’s just one more pair of chopsticks anyway. Let’s go, then.”

In what way does that mean that my heart wants her to come…

“Alright, let’s go.”
