Chapter 31: Chapter 031: The Butler Becomes the Agent Chapter 31: Chapter 031: The Butler Becomes the Agent Shen Yan said these words, and Liu Su’s first reaction was: when did Miss Shen become so polite?
Liu Su’s expression was too obvious, and Shen Yan also paused.
Had she overacted a bit?
To be honest.
After the age of fifteen, the days she lived were always breathtakingly thrilling.
She had hardly ever experienced normal emotional interactions.
The person in front of her was the housekeeper of her original fiancé, and he might also become her housekeeper in the future. In a sense, they needed some emotional interaction.
Her manner just now didn’t quite fit the original character.
But she didn’t correct it.
There was no need.
She would continue to live in her own way in the future.
So she was representing herself now. There was no need to pretend to be someone else.
Liu Su knew that his reaction had been a bit excessive and quickly adjusted himself, saying, “This is what I should do, Miss Shen. I have already joined the Xingyu Media Company. Your agent, Zhang Lu, made quite a few mistakes at work, so the company has adjusted her position accordingly. From today onwards, I will take over as Miss Shen’s agent.”
Shen Yan: “…”
She hadn’t expected him to go to such lengths to watch over her.
It wasn’t a matter of rejection. If it were her, facing someone like the original owner, she would only have acted more excessively.
Her fiancé only did this much, and he really had a very good temper.
“Miss Shen, from now on, I will be your agent. Regarding your future development in the entertainment circle, I will help you set the direction.”
“Can Uncle Liu handle it?”
“…Ahem, I’m just a bit old, not some stubborn old man. I accept new things very quickly. It’s just the entertainment circle; I can still handle it.”
Hearing this, Shen Yan nodded, “Then I will trouble Uncle Liu from now on.”
“No trouble at all, it’s what I should do,” Liu Su straightened his expression, “Aren’t you curious?”
“Curious about what?”
“Do you think that Sir intentionally assigned me to monitor every move of Miss Shen, then achieve the goal of controlling you?” Liu Su had already prepared a script to deal with the rowdy Shen Yan.
However.
Shen Yan not only didn’t make a scene, but she also calmly accepted the adjustment by Xingyu Media Company.
Even her transformation from a housekeeper to an agent was accepted indifferently.
There was absolutely no intention to cause a scene.
In the past, facing such a situation, Shen Yan would have already started cursing loudly.
Such calm acceptance made Liu Su feel an inexplicable chill on his back, feeling that there was some trick waiting for him.
“I know this is arranged by Qi Si,” Shen Yan was still calm and did not reject this change.
“Ah?”
Liu Su was stunned.
“What, does Uncle Liu hope that I will call Qi Si and battle it out for hundreds of rounds right now?” Shen Yan saw his reaction and knew what he was thinking.
Liu Su felt a bit embarrassed: “I would rather hope that Miss Shen and Sir could be loving and harmonious.”
Hearing “loving and harmonious,” Shen Yan raised her eyebrows.
Coexisting peacefully was possible, but there was no need for love.
She had never been in love, didn’t understand emotions, and dared not expect any familial affection.
Seeing that Shen Yan did not respond, Liu Su quickly changed the topic, afraid that talking more would provoke Shen Yan to revert to her original state.
“Regarding the snake incident, I will talk with the show team to secure Miss Shen’s interests to the fullest.”
Shen Yan’s eyes flashed slightly, “Before the live broadcast began, the program group had already checked the island’s paths three times, and every morning before the live broadcast started, they would check again. The path we took was very clean. That kind of snake shouldn’t have appeared.”
Being experienced and coming from a major family of professional housekeepers.
The moment he heard this, his eyes flickered, then they darkened.
“Miss Shen suspects that someone deliberately released the snake.”
“I’m a bit suspicious,” Shen Yan didn’t ambiguously deny. There was no need to cover up for someone who wanted to harm her. “Maybe I was a bit too outstanding, and it got in someone’s way, which led to this accident.”
Liu Su’s expression turned stern, “If that’s the case, the matter is serious. Miss Shen, rest assured, I will talk to the show’s team about this incident.”
Shen Yan nodded, “Uncle Liu, is there anything else you need to instruct?”
“Miss Shen, if you have any issue in the future, please come directly to me. Don’t feel it’s a bother, even if it’s just a trivial matter. I, as your manager, will handle it.”
Liu Su was worried that Shen Yan, due to his identity, wouldn’t rely on him.
Shen Yan smiled, “I will.”
Director Li saw that everyone had calmed down considerably, then asked about Xu Zishen’s condition, came personally to ensure Shen Yan wasn’t psychologically affected, breathed a sigh of relief, and then gathered the guests at one spot.
Since they couldn’t continue the live survival show today, Director Li found a spot by the water and let everyone showcase their skills in foraging for wild food in the water.
The guests adjusted their emotions and returned in front of the cameras.
First up was Xu Zishen stepping forward to greet the vast audience, then clarified that he hadn’t been bitten by a venomous snake, was not psychologically affected, and sincerely thanked Shen Yan.
Speaking of thanks, he jokingly said, “Shen Yan said she doesn’t lack money or cattle, so I thought about offering myself in marriage, but alas, Shen Yan doesn’t like my style!”
He said this while putting on a very dejected expression.
Chu Jinghe and Liu Qiang, standing on the other side, both frowned deeply.
Mu Jincheng, hearing another man talk about offering himself to Shen Yan, felt strangely unpleasant.
He hadn’t realized before that Xu Zishen was such a frivolous person.
The audience, hearing this, all started posting the words “offering oneself in marriage.”
Seeing the screen filled with “offering oneself in marriage,” the audience spontaneously laughed.
[Hahaha, Xu Zishen, even you have days when you are rejected!]
[Suddenly, I find Shen Yan very adorable. What’s this about not lacking cattle, it killed me with laughter.]
[I lack the kind of cattle like Xu Zishen! Hahaha!]
[I want to ship this couple [CP]!]
[I bet one cent that Xu Zishen has definitely proposed an ‘offering himself in marriage’ to Shen Yan.]
[I bet one cent and one!]
[One cent and two.]
[Three cents, no more.]
The comments became even jollier.
When people praised Shen Yan and said they wanted to become her fans, Shen Yan’s haters weren’t happy.
Someone jumped out questioning whether the snake was real, nowadays, realistic toys are too lifelike, even automated, and at that moment no one was clear whether the snake was real or fake.
Catching a venomous snake barehanded seemed quite far-fetched.
Even professional snake catchers wouldn’t dare to do that.
The appearance of haters sparked another round of debates.
After Xu Zishen finished speaking to the camera, it was Shen Yan’s turn, and her speech was very cautious.
“Regarding the thanks, I’ve already expressed to Mr. Xu that it was just a small effort, not worth mentioning. If it were anyone else, I would have done the same, so Mr. Xu need not take it to heart.”
[I deeply felt the resistance from Shen Yan from head to toe!]
[Zishen and Yan CP seem really good to ship, what’s going on.]
[My Yan Yan doesn’t need forcefully created couple hype, focused on survival!]
[Scared, refuse to be paired in a CP, lest the haters come ranting again.]
[Please let my Yan Yan be beautifully alone!]
Xu Zishen, hearing Shen Yan’s statement, momentarily stiffened, maintaining an appropriate smile on his face.
Next, it was time for them to show their individual talents.
Shen Yan didn’t perform spearfishing again; she didn’t need to prepare her own ingredients, there was no need to stand out too much.
During this time, Mu Jincheng and Chu Jinghe performed very well, online they received a lot of praise, and people started shipping the two.
Chu Jinghe also quietly breathed a sigh of relief as things got back on track.
She said to herself, how could Shen Yan’s popularity overshadow hers?
