Wu You Lan said with a smile, “Brother Lin, is my massage technique comfortable?”

“It’s comfortable. It’s really great.” Lin Fan smiled. The massage was really pretty good. In future, getting Wu You Lan to give him a massage every day would not be a bad idea.

After hearing Brother Lin’s compliment, Wu You Lan smiled even more happily. Especially when she thought about how her enemy, Wu Huan Yue, hadn’t appeared for a while now, she felt that she was on the verge of victory.

What was good about being a celebrity? Wu Huan Yue was busy every day and even when she called, Wu You Lan didn’t feel any pressure because Brother Lin didn’t express anything to her.

*Ring ring*

At that moment, Lin Fan’s phone rang.

“Hey, whose number is this?” Lin Fan saw that it was an unknown caller and was a little curious. The number was from Beijing. But he didn’t record this number and it seemed that it wasn’t anyone he knew.

“Hello, who is this?” Lin Fan answered the call and asked.

“Master Lin...” a female voice emanated through the phone. But following that was the sound of weeping.

Lin Fan’s brows furrowed slightly. “May I know who you are?”

This was a little strange. He didn’t even know that person. Why was she crying when he answered the call? Lin Fan couldn’t figure it out.

“Master Lin, I’m Chen Yun Yi.”

“Chen Yun Yi?” Lin Fan was a little confused. He felt that this name was a little familiar but he couldn’t recall who it was. However, he still felt as if he definitely knew this person.

Chen Yun Yi said, “Master Lin, I was the person on Weibo who asked you about luck last time. We’ve chatted on Weibo before.”

“Oh!” At that moment, Lin Fan recalled. “Why are you crying? Did you come across some incident?”

They weren’t very close and they had only interacted briefly several months ago but if this person really wanted some help from him, he had to see what was going on. After all, he couldn’t just fully commit to helping someone he wasn’t even close to.

“Master Lin, I want to request for your help. We acted in Teacher Tao’s TV show. After it finished, Luo Dan and I joined a company. Afterward, we took some small jobs but today, I found out that our company’s leader wants Luo Dan and I to escort several important people. Luo Dan and I have been locked up in the hotel. This phone was sneaked in for us by our manager. Luo Dan and I are both from humble places. We don’t have friends and relatives here and we don’t know any important people either. I can only ask you to help us...” Through her weeping, she described the whole situation to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan asked, “Where are you now?”

Chen Yun Yi said softly, “Luo Dan and I are at Shanghai Chang Tian Road, Hilton Hotel, unit 1504. Someone is coming. Master Lin, I’m begging you, please save us.”

The next moment, the phone was hung up.

Lin Fan looked at the phone and felt helpless. He never expected something like this to happen.

He wasn’t very familiar with Chen Yun Yi but she had actively called him to ask for help. If he didn’t help her, he wouldn’t be able to face himself.

Wu You Lan asked, “Brother Lin, what happened?”

Lin Fan described the situation to Wu You Lan. Wu You Lan was silent for a moment before she said, “Brother Lin, I think you should go. Although you aren’t familiar with her, she has trusted you and placed her last hopes on you. Moreover, you know that this is definitely not anything good. If you know about it but don’t help, and something really does happen, you wouldn’t feel at peace with yourself.”

“Mmm, you’re right. That was what I was thinking too,” said Lin Fan with a smile. Then, he stood up. “Alright, you guys stay in the shop. I’ll go take a look. Regardless of what kind of important people they are, if I, Master Lin, personally makes an appearance, they won’t be able to do anything!”

“Pfft,” Wu You Lan burst into laughter, “Brother Lin, you really wouldn’t be my good Brother Lin if you didn’t act so cocky. Hurry up and go then. If you’re late, something bad might happen.”

Lin Fan looked up at the sky. “Look, the weather is great, nothing bad will happen. Who would do such a thing under the great white sky? However, nothing is for certain. Who knows what might happen? I’m going to go take a look.”

“All the best!” Wu You Lan cheered him on.

Lin Fan chuckled. This was really just a small matter. Since they were in the entertainment business, something like this was bound to happen. However, she had actively looked for him for help and he liked to meddle with other people’s businesses as well. If he didn’t go, he wouldn’t be able to face himself.

Hilton Hotel.

Chen Yun Yi and Luo Dan were locked up in a hotel room. At that moment, both of them had timidness and fear on their faces.

“Yun Yi, what should we do?” asked Luo Dan fearfully.

Chen Yun Yi was out of her wits as well. “I just called Master Lin. He’ll help us.”

Luo Dan said unbelievingly, “We aren’t even close to Master Lin. What reason does he have to help us? Furthermore, it seems like the people who are coming have very high status. The boss told us to obey, otherwise, we would have to face the consequences.”

Chen Yun Yi shook her head, “No, no matter who it is, I won’t agree to it. We have to leave this place.”

“But outside...”

She didn’t finish her sentence.

The room door was opened.

The two of them were startled. They looked at the entrance watchfully.

Chen Yun Yi saw their boss and pleaded, “Boss, I beg you to let us go. I don’t want to accompany them.”

They had joined the Cloudy Sky Entertainment Company. The boss, He Ming Hui, looked at the two of them and said sternly, “Don’t talk about this anymore. You have to accompany them. They’re all important people. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you. You can’t afford to offend them. Even I can’t afford it.” Then, he said gently, “Yun Yi, Luo Dan, you’ve both entered this industry so you should know that in this industry, you either have to have the money or some form of backing. But you two don’t have either of those. Listen to me, just treat it as being possessed. When you became famous in future, who would care about such a thing?”

Chen Yun Yi shook her head, “Boss, can we not do this?”

He Hui Ming said, “Not do this? Do you treat this as a vegetable market? Do you think you can do as you like? Let me tell you that you’ve signed your consent. Everything the company arranges, you have to follow unconditionally. If you break the contract, you’ll have to pay a huge sum. Where will you two little girls get that money?”

“You go talk to them. I have to go and receive the guests,” said He Hui Ming.

The crowd left.

Only the manager remained.

“Sister Liu, please help us out,” said Chen Yun Yi tearfully.

“Sigh.” Sister Liu shook her head. “It’s not that I don’t want to help but I am powerless. You have to know that neither of you can get out of this rut. To charge into this entertainment industry without any power or authority, you should’ve made these kinds of choices. Moreover, you have to know the purpose of entering this industry. It’s to become famous. If you want to become famous, you need to let go. Look at all those famous superstars nowadays. Which one of them hasn’t experienced such things? But where are they now? They’ve changed completely and managed to climb the social ladder.”

Chen Yun Yi and Luo Dan both looked down quietly. They would usually joke around about such a thing but they never expected it to happen to themselves. They were really helpless.

Sister Liu comforted them, “Alright, don’t be like that. Sometimes, getting someone that can back you is not a bad thing. We’re all women and this will eventually happen to us, it’s just a matter of who it is. Isn’t that right?”

Chen Yun Yi and Luo Dan looked up at Sister Liu. They never thought that Sister Liu would have such thoughts.

Terrifying. It was really terrifying.
