I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!-Chapter 73 - Shen Dong is the True Winner in Life_1

He didn’t have the background, talent, and luck others had to become famous through acting in school.

During his school days, he had taken on some acting roles, all minor characters.

For example, he played a waiter in a historical drama, or a security guard in a modern drama.

These roles were unimportant.

But he treated each role as an opportunity and did his best to perform well.

Just because he was a minor actor now didn’t mean he would always be one.

Even if he couldn’t become a famous star, he wanted to use his efforts to become a strong actor.

It didn’t matter if the roles were small; what was key was having parts to play and being able to make money.

In the film industry, as long as one has parts to play, the income is quite good, certainly much better than working in an ordinary company.

Tang Xinmei just made an acknowledging sound and didn’t ask further.

“Qin Haiyang, do you get to see those popular stars?” a male classmate asked.

In the hearts of ordinary people, stars have a glamorous image and seem far removed from regular life.

Now, having a classmate who was an actor, everyone naturally wanted to know a bit more.

“I’ve met a few,” Qin Haiyang replied.

“Who have you seen?” the male classmate pressed on.

“Wu Jin, Zhang Han, Liu Sisi, Tang Yan, Zhao Liying—these are some of the more famous stars I’ve met,” he answered.

Qin Haiyang used to be a minor actor in TV dramas and movies that these popular stars acted in.

“My God, those are all A-list stars; in my eyes, Zhao Liying is the most beautiful,” Feng Tao exclaimed.

This guy had always said, back in high school, that Zhao Liying was his goddess.

“Those female stars are all gorgeous, Qin Haiyang, you’re so lucky to have met them,” the male classmate who first asked said, full of envy.

“You call this luck?” Qin Haiyang laughed bitterly and shook his head.

“I’ll tell you, compared to Shen Dong’s wife, these female stars are slightly inferior.

Shen Dong is the truly lucky one.”

“What, Shen Dong’s wife is that beautiful?!” Tang Xinmei voiced her surprise, not quite believing it.

The others also seemed somewhat incredulous.

“Why would I lie to you?” Qin Haiyang laughed.

“Shen Dong, you must have a photo of your wife, show us,” Tang Xinmei urged.

“Alright,” Shen Dong nodded and pulled up a life photo of Chen Yuyan from his phone’s album.

Except for Qin Haiyang, the rest leaned in to take a look.

“My heavens, she’s so beautiful!”

“Indeed, like Qin Haiyang said, she’s even more beautiful than Liu Sisi, Tang Yan, and Zhao Liying!”

“Buying a ten-million-dollar luxury car, marrying such a beautiful wife, Shen Dong is the real winner in life!”

The crowd expressed their amazement, their faces full of envy.

The women envied Shen Dong’s wife for marrying him, while the men envied Shen Dong for having such a beautiful wife.

Soon after, everyone returned to their seats and continued eating, drinking, and chatting.

“Qin Haiyang, what are you working on now?

Are you filming a movie or a TV drama?” Tang Xinmei asked.

“I’m working on a movie, which is directed and starred in by Wu Jin,” Qin Haiyang said.

“A Wu Jin movie?

He’s an action actor, right?

So, it’s an action movie?” a classmate asked.

“Yes, it’s a military action movie.

We had to pause the shooting temporarily because the funding exceeded the budget.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the time to come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival.”

“This movie is really good, it would be such a pity if the production halted.”

“Actually, I came back to see if any of our wealthy classmates could help invest in Wu Jin’s project.”

“But those classmates with money didn’t come back, and it’s hard to explain things clearly over the phone, so I had no choice but to let it go,” Qin Haiyang explained.

“Shen Dong is wealthy, why don’t you ask him to invest?”

“Yeah, Shen Dong is driving a Bentley King worth tens of millions.

It shouldn’t be a problem for him to invest some money and finish the movie,” someone added.

“Those classmates you mentioned as wealthy, they aren’t that rich themselves.

Investments of several million or tens of millions, they can’t afford that.”

“Yes, even if they had come back, it wouldn’t have made a difference.

If Shen Dong doesn’t invest, there’s no one else.”

The classmates spoke one after another.

“I’ve talked to Shen Dong, he said he doesn’t understand the film industry,” Qin Haiyang said with a bitter smile.

“Qin Haiyang, I’ve thought it over.

Give Wu Jin my number, he can give me a call.

I might invest if it’s feasible,” Shen Dong said.

The system had already provided the information that the movie would gross five hundred million.

He had to invest.

He didn’t ask Qin Haiyang for Wu Jin’s number.

Instead, he told Qin Haiyang to give his own number to Wu Jin, prompting Wu Jin to call him.

Calling Wu Jin and having Wu Jin call him were two different things.

This was advantageous for maintaining control.

“Okay,” Qin Haiyang said, unable to hide his excitement.

He hadn’t expected to seek investment from Shen Dong at the gathering today.

He just wanted to catch up and reconnect with his classmates; after all, he had already mentioned it to Shen Dong who had expressed no understanding of the film industry, which was as good as saying he wasn’t interested in investing.

To his surprise, Shen Dong had a change of heart.

Though Shen Dong hadn’t explicitly stated he would invest, at least the intention was there.

Qin Haiyang believed that once Shen Dong talked to Wu Jin, Shen Dong would definitely be tempted.

After all, “The Battle Tiger” was indeed a great movie.

The dinner ended at 8:30 PM, and the group left the restaurant.

Qin Haiyang had driven there, but since he drank alcohol, he called a friend to drive and offered to take two of the male classmates home.

“Shen Dong, how about you take He Wenjing and Tang Xinmei home?” Qin Haiyang suggested.

He didn’t have any other intentions; he had arrived with two male classmates and naturally, he had to drive them back.

It wasn’t appropriate to suggest they ride in Shen Dong’s car.

So, Shen Dong was left to drive the two women home, as they had mentioned earlier, they came by taxi.

“Sure,” Shen Dong had no objections.

“Thanks, Shen Dong.

I get to experience what it’s like to ride in a multimillion-dollar luxury car,” Tang Xinmei said quickly as she hopped into the passenger seat.

“Thank you,” He Wenjing said with a slight smile, taking her seat in the back.

“My goodness, this is way too luxurious!”

As soon as she got into the car, Tang Xinmei couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement, looking around and inspecting everything.

Even the usually demure He Wenjing was glancing around, taking out her phone to snap a few pictures.

Of course, her personality meant she wouldn’t be as loud and exuberant as Tang Xinmei.
