Chapter 36: The Beauty Has a Life

  Seeking sponsorship...

  Sun Zesheng and his companions walked to the entrance of the Great Wall with their tickets. It was very steep here, and there was a gate at the entrance where ticket inspectors were checking tickets.

  Sun Zesheng showed the ticket to the ticket inspector, and the ticket inspector let them pass.

  The Great Wall is majestic and magnificent, countless writers and travelers have described it, but standing on it in person, the most intuitive feeling is that it's extremely steep, making it hard to imagine how ancient soldiers transported heavy defensive equipment back and forth while defending against external enemies.

  Sun Zesheng and the other three didn't have much of a mood to appreciate the grandeur of the Great Wall.

  Sun Zesheng was still thinking about how to make money, the registration and preparation stage of the new company cost a lot of money, renting factories, offices, purchasing equipment, recruiting workers, purchasing raw materials, etc., which one does not need to spend money? Is his 250,000 enough to toss around, or is it another matter.

  He originally wanted to make a profit from Rong Jingying and Xu Yunjin, but this was not something that could be determined in a short period of time. The subtle movements between Xu Yunjin and Zhang Li, he took them all in, knowing that Xu Yunjin had not yet given up on buying the film script from him at a low price. As for Rong Jingying, it was even more urgent, as there was still a lack of sufficient trust between the two, making it difficult to sell the acne remover to her at a high price.

  Xu Yunjin and Zhang Li got together, Xu Yunjin kept saying something to Zhang Li, she was also urging Zhang Li to release her charm, use her beauty trick, and let Sun Zesheng voluntarily lower the price.

  In comparison, among the four of them, Rong Jingying was the most relaxed. She had been dragged along by Xu Yunjin and didn't have any expectations, so her mindset was also the most relaxed. Among the four of them, only she was genuinely admiring the majestic grandeur of the Great Wall.

  About a minute after climbing the Great Wall, Zhang Li was again moved by Xu Yunjin's three-inch tongue, and the two women reached a consensus once more.

  Xu Yunjin pulled Rong Jingying's hand, "Little Jing, shall we have a competition? See who can reach the front slope first. Whoever loses will treat the other to lunch today, how about it?"

  "Alright."

  Rong Jingying accepted Xu Yunjin's challenge with a smile, and the two women let out a cheer in unison before rushing out.

  Zhang Li waved at Sun Zesheng and said, "I'm too tired to climb, come over and give me a pull."

  Sun Zesheng walked over, pulled Zhang Lirou's smooth hands and helped her climb up a steep slope, then let go of her hand.

  "If you can't climb, then take a rest."

  Sun Zesheng took out an old magazine from his backpack and put it on the steps of the Great Wall, patted it, indicating that Zhang Li should sit down.

  Zhang Li was indeed a bit tired, so she sat down with the momentum, then pointed to the position beside her, "Sit with me for a while."

  Sun Zesheng also sat down, but he didn't sit next to Zhang Li, instead sitting about a foot or two away from him.

  "Why sit so far away? I'm not a tiger, I won't eat you." Zhang Li said with half truth and half jest.

  "No, it's too hot and sitting too close makes it even hotter." Sun Zesheng smiled and politely declined Zhang Li's "kindness".

  Actually, sitting next to Zhang Li, Sun Zesheng regretted it.

  Zhang Li happened to be sitting at the windward side, he was at the leeward side, the mountain wind blew over, blowing Zhang Li's breath straight into his nostrils.

  When Zhang Li climbed the Great Wall, he sweated a bit but didn't smell bad. On the contrary, there was a subtle fragrance that wasn't from incense or cosmetics, it smelled like his daughter's scent.

  Sun Zesheng was not a man who had yet to fulfill his duties, and at this age, he was still full of vigor. As he caught the scent of Zhang Li's feminine fragrance, his eyes would occasionally steal glances at her stunning figure, exuding an aura of confidence. His mind would sometimes flash back to Zhang Li's breathtaking beauty, and Sun Zesheng felt embarrassed as he discovered he had a reaction - his little brother was swollen with discomfort, tenting up his pants.

  Sun Zesheng could only put on a nonchalant expression, rummaging through his backpack to pull out a bottle of mineral water and pouring it into his mouth in desperation, hoping the coolness would quench the evil fire burning within his belly.

  Zhang Li did not notice Sun Zesheng's abnormality, after all she was a girl and had her own reserve, she wouldn't just stare at Sun Zesheng's crotch for no reason.

  "Sun Zesheng, I heard from Xu Yunjin that your storytelling skills are quite impressive. The other day, you and Xu Yunjin were on the same car returning to Beijing, and on the way, you told them a particularly beautiful love story. Can you tell me about it today?"

  In Zhang Li's voice, there was a hint of a spoiled tone, it was unclear whether she did it on purpose or inadvertently revealed it.

  No matter what, her coquettish skills are not something that Xu Yunjin can match. Xu Yunjin's flirting with Sun Zesheng on the train was too intentional and fake.

  Sun Zesheng smiled and said, "A beauty has spoken, how dare I not comply. Sitting is just sitting, so I'll tell you a story. It starts with a man and a woman..."

  Sun Zesheng was a bit dull when he studied in his previous life, but after starting his own business, his tongue became sharper. After being reborn into this life with his arch-nemesis, his mindset had a great liberation, and his spirit became very relaxed. Unconsciously, his verbal skills also improved somewhat.

  Sun Zesheng's expressive ability is not as good as speaking with flowers in his mouth, but it can also reach the level of amateur storytelling, and there is still a level that can attract people.

  Under his narration, Zhang Li gradually entered the story he wove, with the characters in the story, sometimes joyful, sometimes sad. When joyful, he laughed with abandon, his body swaying back and forth, his arms waving wildly. When sad, two streams of tears flowed down his cheeks, heart-wrenching to behold.

  Sun Zesheng could feel that Zhang Li was truly emotional, without any pretence or artificiality, which made her all the more precious. A professional acting major in college, with one foot already in the entertainment industry, yet still able to be so genuine, is indeed rare.

  Sun Zesheng did not have the slightest doubt that with time, Zhang Li would definitely become a well-known actor. As long as she could overcome the obstacles in her way and achieve greater success, it was not impossible.

  After Sun Zesheng finished telling the story, Zhang Li was silent for a long time. After a while, she showed a hint of longing, "If this story could be adapted into a movie and I played the female lead, that would be great."

  Sun Zesheng said: "Unfortunately, I don't have the money now. Otherwise, I would definitely invest in this movie and specify you as the first female lead."

  As soon as money was mentioned, Zhang Li's mind cleared up a bit and she remembered Xu Yunjin's entrustment, quickly extricating herself from the story just now.

  "Can't you sell this script to Xu Yunjin at a lower price? She really wants this script and she also said that if I can persuade you to sell it to her, she'll let me be the female lead in this movie. Sun Zesheng, isn't this equivalent to you investing in making this movie?"
