Once Qi Le’an had set his goal, he began an intense study life.

Although he told everyone that he could do it, actually, he still felt a little bit laborious.

Every course of Tisch was very demanding. If Qi Le’an wanted to get an excellent result, he had to wholeheartedly devote himself into his studies. In the first month of shcool, he went to the library more frequently than he did in the past two years.

No matter when he was bathing or cooking, Qi Le’an had classic movies playing on his tablet all the time to watch and learn from.

Apart from that, he also needed to decide his way to graduate.

The graduation assessment of Tisch had two types, one was a graduation thesis, and the other was a graduation film. The school encouraged everyone to take the second way. However, a graduation film required far more work than a thesis.

Wei Changfeng chose the second one with no doubt for his graduation, but Qi Le’an chose the first one after careful consideration.

His strength was not in filmmaking, and his level of directing courses was also mediocre. Compared to being a director, he loved more to be a good actor.

He decided on the topic for his thesis, which would be a discourse on the relationship between contemporary opera actors and popular art for the masses.

Professor John agreed with Qi Le’an’s approach. In a school as free and inclusive as Tisch,choosing what worked for you was far better than choosing what looked good.

Therefore, in addition to completing his homework, Qi Le’an also went to the major theatres to investigate the real life of the current opera actors. Thanks to Dossey, he was able to get a full picture of their life.

“I didn’t expect you to start preparing for graduation so early,” Dossey was still the same big boy. He spoke while drinking and blinking his green eyes.

Qi Le’an smiled, “Because I want to graduate earlier. ”

“I’d say it’s you orientals who are more serious in studying! I remember when I was in high school, there was a Chinese guy in my class who got the first place in every subject.” Dossey said.

Qi Le’an was a little embarrassed and he said, “Actually, I’m just mediocre. Fynn is the real genius.”

Dossey had heard about the engagement between Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng from his uncle Amco. He laughed, “People who fall in love with geniuses are always not much worse.”

Qi Le’an burst into laughter.

“By the way, we have a performance this weekend. Do you want to come?” Dossey asked Qi Le’an, “Amco might come to watch as well. If you come, let’s go for Chinese food when it’s over?”

Qi Le’an was a little hesitant, and Dossey saw it. He said, “I know you’re busy! It’s okay if you’re not available.”

“No… It’s just my friend from home is coming over this weekend. Or maybe next week? We can go eat together.”

“Okay!” Dossey’s eyes lit up, “What friend? Are you close? Can you ask him to bring a few packets of Latiao?”

Qi Le’an could not help but smile, “Of course.”

Dossey said with a happy and intoxicated face, “Latiao is really a world-class delicacy.”

The two of them drank some wine and ate a simple meal, and Dossey had the chauffeur take Qi Le’an back home. After returning home, Qi Le’an first poured the information recorded today into the computer. After that, he contacted Chen Shan.

“Brother Chen! Please do me a favour!”

Chen Shan replied after a while, “Speak!”

“[Shy] [Shy] Would you please ask President Li Che to bring a few bags of latiao over?”

“…”

Qi Le’an himself also felt a little embrassed. Although he knew that Chen Shan and Li Che were close, but ask him to bring something like latiao was kind of too much…

But only a few seconds later, Qi Le’an received a message from Li Che: Okay.

Qi Le’an: “???” It was still early morning in China, was Brother Chen together with Li Che?

Brother Chen couldn’t immediately send a message to ask President Li Che if he could bring some latiao, could he?

Why did he feel…kind of strange?

The silly Le’an didn’t know yet that the demonic President Li Che had already got his Brother Chen totally in control.

The “friends” who would arrive in New York over the weekend were none other than Li Che’s team. It was a big deal for the Coolrunning to be listed on the NYSE. President Li had been more and more in the second line in these years, and Li Che had to handle almost all big and small things in Coolrunning.

Except the team prepared for the IPO of Coolrunning , Li Che also brought the Publicity Department to prepare for the first shot at the US market.

Before President Li Jr.’s arrival, Qi Le’an asked politely if he needed to be picked up at the airport, but Li Che rejected coldly. They didn’t met until that night, and had a meal at a French restaurant.

“It’s been a long time,” Qi Le’an looked at Li Che who was barely changed and he smiled, “You look well.”

“I’ve seen you a lot.” Li Che said in his unique tone.

Qi Le’an was stunned and asked, “Really?”

Li Che had very red lips; he said, “At Chen Shan’s place.”

Qi Le’an let out an “Oh” and increasingly realized something was wrong.

The things between President Li Jr. and Brother Chen…Why did he feel so wierd!

Li Che’s eyes turned to Qi Le’an’s ring and asked, “From Wei Changfeng?”

Qi Le’an was startled. Although the relationship between him and Wei Changfeng was not a secret, as a CEO of a domestic private enterprise, how could Li Che also knew that?

The next second, Li Che said with intent, “Chen Shan told me.”

“Oh…” Qi Le’an didn’t know how to face Li Che.

Fortunately, after Li Che finished these few words like a psychopath, he returned to his normal state. He chatted with Qi Le’an for a few words about the French dinner, then started talking about the work arrangement.

“We’ll stay in America for a month. Within this month, I’ll be in charge of many things in the company, so I might have no time to contact you.” While wiping his hands slowly and methodically, Li Che said, “But you don’t have to worry, there is someone in charge of you.”

How could Qi Le’an not be worried! He asked tentatively, “Who is it?”

Li Che raised his lip corners and said, “Not telling you.”

Qi Le’an, “…”

“I have to talk to the distributors over here in this month in addition to the listing. I hope you can finish the commercial within this time, and by the time I leave America, your commercial will be ready to be put on the market.”

Coolrunning’s request was not too much. On the issue of advertising endorsements, Qi Le’an already owed them. At this time, he promised, “There is no problem at all.”

Li Che nodded, took out his phone and turned on his camera.

Qi Le’an, “? ? ? ”

Li Che pressed the shutter and said, “Alright, send it to Chen Shan to let him have a look.”

Qi Le’an, “…” If he still hadn’t realized what was between those two guys, he would really be stupid!

After returning home, Qi Le’an told Wei Changfeng this gossip at the first time!

“Wei Sama, Wei Sama! I didn’t expect that Brother Chen becomes a gay too!”

Wei Changfeng finished filming in New Zealand in February and moved to Northern Ireland with the entire crew. The time differece between them was finally shortened to five hours.

“Wasn’t he in a relationship with Li Che long ago?” In the videocall, Wei Changfeng’s hair grew longer and looked even more handsome.

Qi Le’an’s eyes widened, “! ! !”

Wei Changfeng added, “Probably when we went abroad?”

“No! Way!” Qi Le’an yelled, “How can I don’t know a thing at all! Oh My God! Is there anyone else aware of this?”

Wei Changfeng was amused by Qi Le’an’s cute look and said gently, “I don’t know that either.”

Qi Le’an thought about it and suddenly figured it out, “No wonder Coolrunning was so friendly to me at that time… Is this all because Brother Chen sold his body to get it? That’s how they could be good friends when their relationship was so lousy in the beginning!”

Wei Changfeng was shocked by the words “sold his body” and said, “Don’t say that in front of Chen Shan. Otherwise, your Brother Chen will explode!”

Qi Le’an smiled, “Of course! I’m not stupid…but Brother Chen sacrificed a lot for me. I have to thank him properly.”

Wei Changfeng looked at the silly child in the video, wondering who was stupid if he wasn’t?

“When the shooting here is complete, I can go back to New York.” Wei Changfeng said in a soft voice.

Qi Le’an nodded. Although he still missed Wei Sama so much, he would no longer pester Wei Sama endlessly anymore.

“I’ll wait for you to come back.”

Wei Changfeng smiled so hard that his eyes curved.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Le’an watched a movie and wrote his comment notes as usual, then he prepared to go to bed. Before sleeping, he was still thinking about who would be the one to contact him on the Coolrunning side.

He hoped that the guy wouldn’t be a difficult person to get along with. He was afraid that he didn’t have enough energy if he had to study, shoot, and intrigue against another man at the same time.

But the next day, Qi Le’an knew he had overthought it.

The person who contacted him was none other than an old friend, Deng Jie.

Deng Jie was wearing casual clothes and a pair of flattened shoes. She was still not married and looked as if she was going to be single till death. After several years of not seeing her, her aura had become even sharper.

“Sister Deng!” Qi Le’an couldn’t help but feel happy when he saw an acquaintance and said, “I can’t believe it’s you!”

Deng Jie looked at Qi Le’an and felt that this child had become even more eye-catching than he was a few years ago.

In the past, when Qi Le’an was banned and Li Che wanted to keep his contract, she didn’t agree at first. However, Li Che insisted again and again and looked forward to the trend of Coolrunning five years later, giving her a line-by-line analysis before she finally agreed.

She didn’t expect that after less than three years, Coolrunning would run faster than they originally expected, and Qi Le’an would grow faster than she expected as well.

Deng Jie handed the planning book to Qi Le’an and said, “We are going to look for a team from America to make the commercial. It will take at least half a month. This is the planning book, you can get to know it first.

Qi Le’an took the book and remembered the message Li Che sent him in the morning.

“Deng Jie came to New York on holiday; there’s no need to be the focus so much on work. [Smile]”

“Sister, do you want to visit our school?” The place where they met was near Qi Le’an’s house, so of course, it was also near Tisch.

Deng Jie came with a vacation mood, naturally, she would not refuse Qi Le’an’s kindness and said, “The rumored unbeatable film school? I’d like to take a look.”

Qi Le’an laughed and prepared to take Deng Jie to Tisch.

“I can’t say that Tisch is unbeatable, but you can always meet surprise here.”

Deng Jie didn’t know that after thirty years of celibacy, she had met a surprise in this old film school, but that would be another story.
