The Villain Just Wants to be a Salted Fish - Chapter 110

The box office of “Famous General” is soaring all the way, and the degree of discussion among the people is getting higher and higher. With the JiangZi CP being popular, everyone’s attention is now on Ye Zexi in the circle, and the number of Ye Zexi’s fans has also begun to increase sharply.

To get to know a celebrity the fastest, there is no better way than to watch the interviews of that celebrity’s past shows.

So during this period of time, another wave of “archaeology” has been set off among many fan groups.

The crowd was so powerful that they not only began to watch Ye Zexi’s previous audition variety show, but also began to collect various related autographed photos of Ye Zexi’s surroundings. This caused so much attention that even people who are not following showbiz also knew of it.

This includes Yan Man and Ye Haoyan.

People who know of Yan Man would try their best to get in contact with her. When they spoke, they all came to ask for autographs, either for their daughters or for their sons. Of course, some of them were for themselves.

It’s just a pity that Yan Man doesn’t have too many autographed photos in her hands. Ye Zexi did sign a lot to her last time, but she gave all of it to her friends at the time. Now, Yan Man refused all the people who came to her door.

However, these friends were not discouraged when they were rejected, and they would still drag Yan Man to continue chattering.

Either inquiring about Ye Zexi’s preferences, or asking when Ye Zexi would come home.

Finally, they did not forget to praise Ye Zexi in front of Yan Man. At the same time, they would like to learn from Yan Man and ask her how she raises her two sons so well.

At first, Yan Man would also explain that it was Ye Zexi’s own hard work and it had nothing to do with her. Later on, there were more and more people coming to see Yan Man, and it was tiresome to explain everything to each and everyone of them. Gradually, Yan Man just smiled and accepted these compliments.

After hanging up the call with her friend again, Yan Man was very happy to have lot of compliments that she could not stop smiling.

The servant next to me saw it and couldn’t help but smiled and said, “Recently, there are really many people who ask Madam for Young Master’s autograph. I think Madam should call Young Master and ask him to send some autographed photos over?”

Yan Man only slightly stopped the smile on her face: “Where Zexi would have the time for this?” Putting down the phone, she continued, “I called him two days ago, or Secretary Gao answered the phone, saying that Zexi is in an interview. I really don’t want to trouble him too much, when he is free, we will talk about it.”

The servant laughed: “Our young master is really popular!”

“Isn’t he?” Yan Man’s smile got bigger, she said with some pride in her tone, “I have a feeling that Zexi will be nominated for the Golden Flower Awards this year!”1

“That’s great!” The servant boasted sincerely. “Then Master and Madam will be able to attend the awards ceremony too!”

Yan Man nodded. Thinking of Ye Zexi’s hard work during this period, she simply got up and went into the kitchen again, preparing to fry some dried fish for Ye Zexi and let the driver send it over.

She really can’t let Ye Zexi be tired!

Here Yan Man thought well, but Ye Haoyan didn’t think so much.

Misery is an understatement!

In order to prevent his friends suddenly calling him out go drinking while he was working as a free laborer, Ye Haoyan had told his friends in advance that they could call him for a drink anytime, but absolutely not during working hours!

If Ye Jianbin heard it, he would definitely be scolded to death.

What Ye Haoyan didn’t expect was that those friends of his who had promised him before seemed to have temporarily forget their promise recently!

Not only call him during working hours, but they also sent various messages and WeChat messages to his phone!

The phone in Ye Haoyan’s pocket kept vibrating, and the sound was so loud that Ye Jianbin could even notice it.

“Who’s calling?” Ye Jianbin asked.

Ye Haoyan was covering in cold sweat, and could only lie and said, “It may be those telemarketing calls!”

Ye Jianbin: “Hang up.”

Ye Haoyan nodded quickly.

He did not expect that he hung up one call, and right after, another one came in.

Ye Jianbin’s gaze looked up again in an instant, and Ye Haoyan simply turned off his phone with a guilty conscience.

The world became quiet all of a sudden.

Ye Haoyan didn’t turn on the phone until he got off work. The moment the phone was turned on, various notification sounds came and it took him a full minute to return from the shock.

Before reading the messages, Ye Haoyan really thought that it must be urgent for his friends to keep calling him; but after reading the messages, he was quite shocked.

How come all came to ask him about Ye Zexi?

It happened that another friend called, and Ye Haoyan clicked to connect: “Hello…”

“Buddy, get me an autograph!” Before Ye Haoyan finished speaking, his friend interrupted him.

“What autograph?” Ye Haoyan wondered, “Do you want my autograph?”

The friend’s tone was very disgusting: “Who the hell wants your autograph, I mean your brother! Isn’t your brother Ye Zexi? Do your good friend a favor, my girlfriend wants it!”

Ye Haoyan frowned instantly: “I don’t have any.”

“Then you can always ask for one for me!” The friend said, “Isn’t Ye Zexi your brother?”

Even though he heard his friend, Ye Haoyan was still a little puzzled: “Why does your girlfriend think of asking for my brother’s autograph?”

“You haven’t read the news on the Internet recently?” The friend was a little surprised.

Ye Haoyan sighed: “Do you think I have time?”

After a short silence from the friend on the phone, he coughed slightly: “Then you will find out if you go to the Internet! But let me say this, an autograph, my good brother, you have to help me get it!”

Before Ye Haoyan agreed, his friend hung up the phone anxiously.

However, Ye Haoyan was also a little puzzled when his friends said that, did something happen online again?

When Ye Haoyan opened Weibo, the Weibo was overwhelmed with news about Ye Zexi.

It turned out that Ye Zexi’s new movie was released, so now he understood why his friend suddely came to him asking for an autograph.

But what surprised Ye Haoyan the most was the box office of the movie “Famous General”——

As of July 5th, the total box office had exceeded 1.5 billion!

Ye Haoyan had also learned a lot from Ye Jianbin in the past two years, so he naturally knew what this number represents.

His heart was so shocked that he couldn’t recover for a long time.

After finishing the last work on his desk, Ye Jianbin finally walked out of the office. As soon as he came out, he saw Ye Haoyan standing in a daze in the corridor.

“What are you doing in a daze?” Ye Jianbin asked.

Ye Haoyan held the phone and looked back at Ye Jianbin. His expression was very complicated and said, “Dad, do you know that brother’s movie is released?”

Ye Jianbin said confidently: “Of course I know, what? You just know?”

Ye Haoyan cursed secretly in his heart, how could he be found out!

After a dry laugh, Ye Haoyan said, “Ah, I haven’t read the news much recently. I went to sleep after finishing work…”

“No matter how busy you are, you have to pay more attention on the news around you. If you’re half-heart about your work, how can you be on your own in the future?” Ye Jianbin motioned to Ye Haoyan to follow. He said while the corner of his mouth still curved up in a smile: “Learn more from your brother, I don’t have to worry about him at all.”

If it were Ye Haoyan before, he would definitely choke on these words. But now Ye Haoyan saw the number of shoes Ye Zexi gave him, and Ye Zexi’s attitude towards him had changed in the past year, he was not as disgusted as before, so he nodded and said: “Look like I need to buy out a few showtimes to support brother.”

Ye Jianbin nodded in satisfaction, and at the same time transferred some money to Ye Haoyan’s card.

Ye Haoyan’s eyes widened when he received a text message from the bank: “Dad, this…”

“You need money to book out the place.” Ye Jianbin said concisely.

Ye Haoyan’s heart: That’s too much! Since the pocket money card was confiscated, he had never seen a seven-figure balance again!

Thank you Ye Zexi! Thank you my brother!

It happened that tomorrow was his day off. With this excitement, Ye Haoyan boldly called the theater owner, booked an afternoon show, and invited his friends to watch the movie.

At the same time, Ye Haoyan also called Ye Zexi.

Ye Zexi was really surprised when he received Ye Haoyan’s call, but he didn’t hesitate, so he answered the call: “Hello, Haoyan? You need something?”

Ye Haoyan called first, but then it was a little hard to speak.

How should he say it?

After a long pause, Ye Zexi couldn’t help but ask: “Help a friend ask for an autograph?”

Ye Haoyan’s ears suddenly became hot: “How did you know?”

Recently, too many people came to Ye Zexi for autograph, and for Ye Haoyan to call himself, it was not that difficult to guess it, since there was really nothing else.

“How many do you want?” Ye Zexi asked with a smile.

Ye Haoyan said a number.

The two fell silent at the same time.

Sighing, Ye Zexi said truthfully: “I can’t sign that many.”

One or two is okay, a few hundred, please spare him. He would not even sign that many as bonuses to fans!

Ye Haoyan also knew that this number is a bit too much, the problem was that he had already promised his friends…

After thinking about it for two seconds, Ye Haoyan said again: “Is printing OK?”

Of course this is fine. Ye Zexi agreed and asked when to give it to him.

Ye Haoyan: “Can it be tomorrow? I book a showtime at the theater tomorrow and invite other friends to come and watch it.”

This was unexpected to Ye Zexi. He simply asked the place and time: “Then I will hand it to you tomorrow.”

Ye Haoyan was taken aback, and his tone was a little excited: “Are you going to come here in person?”

Ye Zexi nodded: “It happens I have nothing schedule for tomorrow.”

After hung up the phone, He Jinyun leaned over, complaining a little dissatisfied: “Are you not accompanying me tomorrow?”

Ye Zexi glanced at him and yawned, “I have to stay alone in the lounge waiting for you.”

He Jinyun smiled helplessly: “Okay, I’ll pick you up when it’s over.”

Ye Zexi said, “Won’t the movie end at a much later time?”

He Jinyun raised his eyebrows: “That’s not necessarily true. The big star Ye Zexi will be at the theater in person, and other people won’t take this opportunity to take picture with you?”

Ye Zexi: “…”

Fuck, he was being careless!

But he had already agreed to Ye Haoyan, and he definitely couldn’t go back on his words.

Sure enough, as He Jinyun said, when Ye Zexi arrived at the theater the next day, he was surrounded by people.

Among the sea of people, those who knew learned that it was Ye Haoyan’s friends and family members, but those who didn’t know thought it was a small meeting.

Fortunately, Ye Haoyan maintained the order, and many of the people in this group were also rich young masters and mistresses who had seen many celebrities, and the scene was not too out of control.

Everyone took photos with Ye Zexi one by one. As for the autographed photos, they had long been forgotten by everyone. After all, compared with the real Ye Zexi, it is nothing!

After all, there were nearly a hundred people, and when the photo section was over, Ye Zexi watched the movie with everyone, and the end was really taking longer than He Jinyun’s work!

After receiving the call, Ye Zexi did not hesitate to stand up and say goodbye to everyone.

Everyone did not hold back, and Ye Haoyan even personally went to send Ye Zexi downstairs.

Ye Zexi waved his hand: “No, he’s already waiting outside the door, so I’ll go out first, you guys continue to watch the movie.”

Ye Haoyan was still a little worried, and walked out with his brother, but a friend of Ye Haoyan also followed them out.

He Jinyun was at the door, wearing a suit due to not having time to take it off, a mask and a cap.

Seeing Ye Zexi coming out, he quickly stepped forward and took Ye Zexi’s hand: “Let’s go.”

Ye Zexi put on the mask, nodded, waved to Ye Haoyan and entered the elevator with He Jinyun.

Seeing the two leaving, Ye Haoyan couldn’t hide the shock on his face, no wonder his brother didn’t want him to send him out!

The friend who followed happened to see this scene, and he was a little dumbfounded: “Who is that person? Why is he holding your brother’s hand!”

Ye Haoyan glared at his friend and threatened: “You better know what to say and what not to say!”

The friend’s eyes were all shocked, and there was a trace of loss that was hard to conceal.

Unfortunately, he wanted to court Ye Zexi! But he was one step late.
