Chapter Thirty: The Nun Goes Crazy
Although they had some money now, Yi Feiyang and his best friend, Pao Baifei, did not move out of their doghouse. Mainly because they were used to living here, and also, Yi Feiyang was thinking of hooking up with Mrs. Lawrence's granddaughter... Annie-Hathaway.
For this future superstar, Yifei Yang is very interested. In Yifei Yang's view, it's better to pick up a treasure on the ground and not let it run away. Rather than letting other directors or film companies take her in, he'd rather be the first to get his hands on her. Once he has the power, he'll give her a few leading roles, make her shine, help himself make money, expand his market, and make her his top actress.
For someone with a strong utilitarian heart, a beauty like Anne Hathaway is absolutely a beautiful chess piece to conquer Hollywood... Of course, there's also the chocolate beauty Jessica Alba, who had a deep conversation through the confession room but was eventually dumped. If you can get your hands on this pair of "cold and beautiful duo", won't the future of Hollywood be yours?!
Caw caw caw!
Someone burst out laughing.
But what made Yifei Yang's head ache was that after several attempts to persuade her, Anne Hathaway seemed uninterested in acting. She appeared very cold towards the profession of being an actor; on the contrary, this girl actually hoped to become a nun, and several times when Yifei Yang tried to brainwash her, she almost got Yifei Yang brainwashed into joining the church.
Yi Feiyang is an atheist, or rather, he has never had any religious beliefs. If one had to give him a faith, then the only things he believes in are money and power.
So when a big grey wolf like him meets a little lamb like Annie, it's quite a funny scene.
Yi Feiyang told her about the benefits of being an actor and a star, such as wearing gold and silver, having brand-name handbags, being on the front page of newspapers and magazines, and even going to Hawaii for sunbathing and bubble baths when there were no films to shoot. Annie told him about the benefits of converting to Christianity and becoming a believer, such as God forgiving all your sins, entering heaven after death, and even having your parents go with you... In short, one person believes, and the whole family is honored!
Anne Hathaway's "nun" complex is about to drive Yifei Yang crazy, so much so that someone starts to fear facing this fanatical religious person and begins to avoid her intentionally or unintentionally every time she goes home.
No sooner had Eddy tiptoed up to the second floor than Mrs. Lawrence's door opened and Annie poked her head out to ask him, "Eddy, is that you?"
Yi Feiyang had no choice but to turn around and give this little beauty a sweet smile, "It's me, why didn't you go dancing today?"
Today is weekend, our college is closed.
"Oh, then you'd better rest well, I won't disturb you!" Yì Fēi Yáng wanted to slip away.
"Wait a minute, Yi." Annie called out behind him.
Coughing, Annie walked up to him and handed him a Bible, saying: "You said last time that your Bible was lost, so I bought one for you and gave it to you!"
"Ah, the Bible! How embarrassing! The last one you gave me might be lost in my house, I'll go back and look for it again, maybe I can find it; as for this one, you'd better take it back!" Yì Fēiyáng knew that he absolutely couldn't accept this gift.
"Take it, you can have it!" Annie glared at Yifeyang with her beautiful eyes.
When they first met, Annie was very cold to Yifeiyang; later when they met again, Yifeiyang saved her on the street, making Heather have some good feelings towards him; however, soon after that, Yifeiyang was looking for some girl at the church entrance, making Heather think he was like other men, a flirtatious playboy who chases after beautiful girls.
Fortunately, as time passed, Heather restored her relationship with Yifei Yang. The two were also neighbors and had a lot of interaction. During this period, Heather gradually discovered that Yifei Yang seemed to enjoy listening to her tell stories from the Bible... Unfortunately, someone was pretending to be interested in order to deceive her into becoming a star... So Annie changed her mind and decided to let him enter God's warm embrace no matter what.
"Cough cough, you're really too polite...... This Bible is great, it's still got a sheepskin cover." Yi Feiyang stroked the Bible with his hand, looking very fond of it.
Anne Hathaway saw that he "liked" her gift so much, and took the opportunity to preach, saying: "By the way, last time I told you some stories from the Bible, what do you think?"
"What story? What are you talking about? Oh, you're referring to Judas, Jesus' younger brother, who betrayed Jesus. Then this Jesus was nailed to the cross and three days later ascended to heaven to become a god... I think this is a good thing, if Judas hadn't betrayed Jesus, Jesus wouldn't have become a god, and those church nuns and pastors would lose their jobs. If they lost their jobs, they'd need government assistance... From a macro perspective, it would affect economic development and hinder GDP growth; from a micro perspective, it would impact global warming and prevent penguins in the Arctic from having twins..."
Yi Feiyang spoke nonsense, exerting his strength to its fullest extent, hoping to knock down the "nun" Annie with one palm.
Unfortunately, Yi Feiyang underestimated Annie Hathaway's determination to preach.
"Yi, although your thoughts are a bit inexplicable, I think you've made a lot of progress. At least you know how to think, God, why did it do this..."
"Take this Bible back and read it carefully, I've made many marks in it for you to ponder over. Hopefully next time we meet, you'll understand God's true intention..."
"God loves the world, the world loves God! Father, Son and Holy Spirit, may God bless you, Amen!" Annie Babe drew a cross on someone's forehead and chest.
Yi Feiyang rolled his eyes and didn't even bother to say anything about being a superstar this time. He turned around weakly and said, "May God bless you too!"
Behind her, Anne Hathaway looked at this "lonely", "helpless" and "weak" child of God, and couldn't help but sigh, making a firm decision to rescue him from his misery no matter what!
In fact, Annie's ideal of becoming a "nun" is related to her family education.
Annie's family was steeped in intellectualism, her parents naming her after Shakespeare's wife and raising her not to lie, ride motorcycles or get tattoos before the age of 23, while exposing her only to the influence of her mother, stage actress Catherine McGowan.
Under such "refined" upbringing, Annie became a standard vegetarian and would become a nun as her life ideal.
Poor Yifeng, coincidentally met Annie Hathaway who wanted to be a nun instead of an actress at this time. So, he became the experimental product of Annie's preaching and was "harassed" again and again.
Back in his own room, Hua Jia Bao was busy moving the new washing machine he had just bought. The room was too small and it didn't fit anywhere.
Yi Feiyang took off his clothes and threw them at him, "Wash them!"
"Hey, I'm your babysitter, do you want me to help wash your underwear?"
"If you're willing, I don't mind."
"Beautiful thought!" Fatso curled his lips, "Ha, with a washing machine it's great, from now on I'm liberated too!"
Yi Feiyang was too lazy to bother with him and casually placed the Bible that Annie had given him on the bed.
"Another one? It looks like our beloved Annie has taken a liking to you and is determined to drag you into the arms of God."
"I just don't get it, a girl as beautiful as that, instead of becoming an actress or a star, she wants to become a nun, what kind of logic is this!"
"Not everyone is as keen on fame and wealth as you are!" Fatso said something very profound.
"Maybe." Yi Feiyang pulled out a cigarette.
Fatso: "Smoke less, drink more water." He poured a glass of water for Yifeiyang and got one for himself too.
Yi Feiyang put the cigarette back in its case, "I'm getting more and more the feeling that you're like a housekeeper."
"Cut! My ideal is to be a great manager..."
"Grand Chamberlain?"
"There's no 'inside', it's a 'big manager'! In charge of a huge amount of money, counting banknotes every day until hands are numb!"
"Your ideal is too high and difficult to achieve."
"Ideals are like that, they need to be raised a bit higher, only then can they show their class; by the way, you went to discuss business with someone today, how did it go?" Fatso asked while drinking water.
"Not bad, spent 200,000!"
"Pfft!" Fatso spat out a mouthful of water. His eyes wide with shock, he stared at Yifei Yang and stuttered: "Two million?! You're crazy! Where did you get that kind of money?!"
"Borrowed from Camel's dad!"
"Usury?"
"Alright, I'll pay him back 400,000 yuan in three months!"
Fat guy fainted directly!
400,000?!
My goodness!
So much money, even if I sell my ass for a lifetime, it's not enough to pay back!
Fatso's face turned pale, "A Yang, do you know why we two stowaways came to America?"
"Owed usury."
"So you still remember, why do you want to repeat the same mistake? What if we can't make it in time? Where else can we run to? From Asia to America, and then from America to Africa? I have no problem being a black person, but I'm afraid of heat. And what if there are cannibals there? This body fat I've worked so hard to accumulate, I won't let those guys get it cheaply!"
"Alright fatty, stop nagging! You were just saying you wanted to be a great leader, now something small happens and you're all flustered!"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to become the Grand Commander-in-Chief, and instead will be caught and made into a eunuch..."
"Don't worry, I've already got a plan in mind. This time, we'll definitely win!" Yi Feiyang said confidently.
The fat guy rolled his eyes and started moving the washing machine out.
"What are you doing?"
"Take it back and see if you can get a refund. If we have to run away later, at least we'll have some extra travel expenses!" said the fatty, preparing for a rainy day.
Yi Feiyang: "!!!!!!"
