《Very Happy》Chapter 73.2
Advertisement
This type of party would have awards. The prestige wasn't high but the focus was on the fun.
Overbearing Female President was an online drama exclusively shown on Green Pepper Video so there would definitely be a place for it to win at the awards ceremony part.
The thing that made people feel subtly strange was that the first female lead and the third male lead of this online drama didn't appear at the party, as if the crew and platform side had forgotten them.
In the end, no one was surprised when Li Zhao won the Best New Male Actor award. Overbearing Female President brought great benefits to Green Pepper Video. The industry knew that Li Zhao's performance in this drama was remarkable and the relationship between Green Pepper Video and Li Zhao was good. This was normal.
Xu Bei almost couldn't control the expression on his face as he reluctantly raised his hand to applaud.
"I would like to thank the two teachers handing me this award and all the cast members of Overbearing Female President. Of course, there are two people I'm most grateful to. I want to thank my agent Zhang Xiaoyuan for not taking me to open a noodle store and I want to thank Song Yu for the delicious food he gave me."
The camera swept to Song Yu and Song Yu silently covered his face. He really didn't want to gain a sense of presence in this way. This caused laughter in the venue. Meanwhile, Xu Bei took out his phone and texted the young director of Purple Eggplant Entertainment.
Xu Bei: Brother Hang, didn't you tell me that you would ensure Li Zhao didn't get the prize?
No one responded to the message. Chen Hang, who had been very attentive to him in the past, seemed to be dead. He didn't reply even after a few messages were sent.
In the quiet environment of the teahouse, Qin Xiao in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses was pouring tea for the father and son opposite him. Once it was full, Qin Xiao smiled. "Sorry, I've been quiet for too long. Come and drink tea. Mr Chen, I'm asking for your understanding."
The tea was full of 'taking unfair advantage of the guest'. Boss Chen had lived for 60 years and it was impossible for him not to understand this.
'How can that be?" He picked up the cup and took a sip of the hot tea. His face was as usual as he said, "Good team. Mr Qin is indeed Mr Ting's special assistant. The tea you make is more fragrant than others."
After this gulp, there wasn't much tea left. It was only 70% full.
Chen Hang saw his father's cautious look. The expression on his face was a bit impatient but he didn't dare to attack. His personal phone in his clothes shook several times and he knew Xu Bei had sent a message to him.
He moved his body, prepared to make an excuse to go outside and look at the message.

"It seems that Mr Xiao Chen isn't satisfied with my tea?" Qin Xiao wiped his hands with a towel and looked at Chen Hang with a smile that wasn't a smile.
"No, no." Before Chen Hang could speak, Boss Chen replied first, "That child is someone who can't sit still. Mr Qin, please forgive him."
"It is normal for young people to be active." Qin Xiao pushed up his glasses. "However, being too active and offending people isn't a good thing."
Boss Chen groaned in his heart. How could this stinky boy offend Qin Xiao?
"I admire a young actor lately."
Boss Chen thought, 'His son dared to steal someone from Qin Xiao?'
"Coincidentally, this young actor is also a spokesperson for our Canghuan product." Qin Xiao lifted the teacup and gently blew on it. "However, Mr Xiao Chen had a misunderstanding with our company's spokesperson. A few days ago, he spoke with Green Pepper Video for them to cancel the award our spokesperson won."

"It is normal for young people to have friction. I asked the two of you to come out to understand Mr Xiao Chen's thoughts. If it is a misunderstanding then I hope it can be solved earlier." Qin Xiao took a sip of the tea. "Otherwise, it will be too much and not everyone will look good."

"Dad?!" Chen Hang stared at Boss Chen with disbelief. This outsider only casually said a few words and his father hit him. Was his father crazy?
"Don't call me Dad. I don't have a son like you." Boss Chen secretly observed Qin Xiao's face and saw this person was unmoved as he drank his tea. Thus, he continued to punch and kick Chen Hang.
"Didn't I usually teach you to be kind to others and not embarrass others? How can you even bully the artists under Canghuan?" Although Boss Chen felt distressed, he had to show his attitude in front of Qin Xiao or his son would only suffer more.
Seeing that Chen Hang was beaten until his cheeks were swollen and tears fell down, Qin Xiao spoke slowly, "Mr Chen, what are you doing? Children who don't listen can only be taught slowly."
"I will listen to Mr Qin and spare him this time." Boss Chen kicked Chen Hang. "You should say thank you to Mr Qin."

Chen Hang, "......"
Boss Chen raised his hand and hit his son again.
"Mr Chen, if you have something to say then say it slowly. Violence isn't the answer." Qin Xiao's lips curved up. "The young man has learned his lesson."
"Yes, yes, it is as Mr Qin said."
"I have a friendship with Mr Chen so I talked to you in advance this time." Qin Xiao drank his tea. "However, there is no next time."
"Mr Qin, rest assured that I will educate him when I go back." Boss Chen's head was sweating but he didn't dare wipe it. He dragged the swollen-faced Chen Hang out of the teahouse. "You said you provoked someone who isn't good. Why did you provoke Qin Xiao's person?"
Chen Hang covered his face. "Dad, how can you hit me for an outsider?"
"I'm saving you!" Boss Chen pushed Chen Hang into the car. "Two years ago, the Xu family offended Qin Xiao. Do you know what happened to this Xu family?"
"What?"
"The company became bankrupt. They were also involved in economic crimes and were locked up."
"I just wanted to clean up a male artist. Who would've expected Qin Xiao to fancy him?" Chen Hang was someone who was also afraid of Canghuan. "As the special assistant of Canghuan's boss, how can he dare tell us that he won't get along with Purple Eggplant for a man?"
"Do you think that Purple Eggplant is that great?" Boss Chen smiled bitterly. "Last year, Strawberry Entertainment had an artist with the surname Xu who tried to speculate that he was the distant relative of Canghuan's boss. Canghuan said nothing but that person surnamed Sun personally went to the door to apologize. Is Strawberry Entertainment worse than us?"
"It means his personality is the same as his surname, a 'grandson.'"
"Bah!" Boss Chen scolded. "It is better for me to kill a young man like you or else the foundation of the family's industry will be destroyed in your hands."
"Dad, Dad, what are you talking about? Don't do it!"
In the struggle, Chen Hang's mobile phone fell out of his pocket. Boss Chen picked it up to take a look and saw the latest WeChat message.
Xu: Brother Hang, I'm scared. Do you have an opinion of me that you don't even want to reply to my message?
"Who is this? A man or a woman?"
"Man, a man!"
"This man talks like this. At first glance, he isn't serious!"
"Ouch!" Chen Hang held his head as he accepted Boss Chen's iron fist of love. "Dad, I have something to say."
"This old man has nothing to say. I just want to kill you!"

"Sir." Qin Xiao walked to a black car parked on the side of the road. Someone was holding his phone and watching a live broadcast with no expression.
"I've already warned the Chen family." Qin Xiao glanced at the time. "The party is coming to an end. Do you want to rush home before Mr Li gets back?"
Yan Ting gave a slight nod.
"I just watched the entertainment news. Mr Li seems to have won the prize. Congratulations, sir."
"Zhao Zhao won the prize. Why are you congratulating me?"
"Mr Li is your child." Qin Xiao smiled. "Sir, have you thought about how to celebrate with Mr Li?"
"En."
Qin Xiao secretly let go of his worries. In this regard, the boss' emotional intelligence was still normal.
Li Zhao came back with a golden trophy and saw Yan Ting sitting on the sofa with a large gift box in front of him.
"You're back?" Yan Ting got up. "Congratulations on winning the prize."
"Thank you." Li Zhao changed his shoes and trotted to Yan Ting with the trophy. "What's inside?"
"It is a gift to congratulate you on winning." Yan Ting took two steps back and motioned for Li Zhao to open the gift box.
"For me?"
"Yes."
"Thank you." Li Zhao stuffed the trophy into Yan Ting's arms and curiously pinched the bow. "Can I open it?"
"Okay." Yan Ting touched the trophy and found it was gilded, not pure gold.
How could his Zhao Zhao only get a gilded trophy when he performed so well?
Li Zhao pulled at the bow. The gift box opened instantly, revealing the contents inside.
The seven-year university examination five-year simulation?
The secret volumes?
A comprehensive collection of problem solving?
10 year university examination simulations?!
Li Zhao gulped. "T-These are for me?"
Wasn't this gift too simple?
"I believe you will get excellent results." Yan Ting gently wiped the trophy with a handkerchief. "I will have the housekeeper clean up a room and put only your trophies in there."
Li Zhao, "......"
Did Ting Ting have a mysterious confidence in him? He only got a trophy with no gold content and Ting Ting was already thinking of installing a trophy room?
"Wait a minute." Yan Ting also took a red box out a drawer. "This is also a gift for you."
Li Zhao opened it. Inside was a pen and the golden nib shone in the bright light.
"Study hard every day and don't forget to read books while filming. I'll cheer you on for the university entrance examination."
At this moment, Li Zhao felt the urgency of the university entrance examination students who were cared for by their parents. The tension he didn't experience three years ago was finally felt today.
The author has something to say:
Baby Zhao Zhao took first place in the class.
Baby Ting Ting was very happy. He took out his pocket money and bought a bunch of papers for Baby Zhao Zhao: Zhao Zhao, I believe you are the best.
Baby Zhao Zhao: QAQ.
