After the other top talents tried to comfort him for a long time to no avail and ended up creating a lot of trouble for themselves, they finally persuaded him to go out and find someone new to manage, urging him to stop bothering them.

Finally, Chen Yang, who was despised, began wandering aimlessly outside or staying at home.

Until he discovered Yuan Xi.

Perhaps initially, Chen Yang’s interest in Yuan Xi wasn’t particularly strong. However, as they interacted more, he gradually found Yuan Xi quite intriguing. It was as if he were a child who had discovered a new toy, or perhaps he had simply developed a stubborn infatuation. Chen Yang harbored a strong desire to sign Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi remained completely unaware of Chen Yang’s feelings. After inquiring about Chen Yang’s intentions, Yuan Xi was left speechless by the meeting.

Seeing that Yuan Xi showed no signs of agreeing, Chen Yang couldn’t help but smile and said, “Maybe you’re right to doubt me. But I truly believe you have the potential to become famous. Your appearance is quite distinctive, and you possess many advantages over others. Besides, I have a solid reputation myself—you can look me up online.”

Yuan Xi glanced at Chen Yang, feeling both unsure and skeptical of his words, neither fully believing nor entirely disbelieving.

“Mr. Chen, I really have no interest in being a celebrity, and my personality isn’t suited for the entertainment industry. You should find someone else,” Yuan Xi refused bluntly.

Despite Yuan Xi’s clear refusal, Chen Yang continued to chatter, “How can you know it’s not suitable if you haven’t tried it? Being a celebrity has its perks, and many envy the lifestyle. If you have the ambition, you can achieve it.”

When Fu Yunzhou stood at the entrance of the amusement park, he spotted a familiar figure.

The Fu Group’s ventures span diverse directions, including Xingyao Entertainment, an entertainment company within the Fu Group. Given that Star Entertainment was backed by the Fu Group, its artists were generally protected from mistreatment.

Chen Yang, as the top agent at Xingyao Entertainment, it was natural for Fu Yunzhou to feel a sense of familiarity upon seeing him.

Fu Yunzhou didn’t disturb Yuan Xi, standing at a distance and discreetly listening to the conversation between the two. Upon learning that Chen Yang was considering recruiting Yuan Xi into the entertainment industry, Fu Yunzhou began to reconsider.

But after knowing that Yuan Xi currently has no interest in the entertainment industry, Fu Yunzhou decided against pushing him in that direction.

Despite not being directly involved in entertainment himself, Fu Yunzhou was knowledgeable about its challenges and understands why Yuan Xi might not be inclined toward it at this time. Therefore, he wouldn’t compel anyone to enter that industry.

If Yuan Xi changed his mind later on, Fu Yunzhou would naturally ensure that Yuan Xi wouldn’t face mistreatment once he entered the entertainment industry.

However, Fu Yunzhou saw an opportunity in Chen Yang’s current pursuit of Yuan Xi.

He smirked and started contemplating how to manipulate Yuan Xi into yielding. Since he was already interested in the young man, why not intensify that interest?
