Chapter 5: Mr. Lin, Interested in Becoming a Star?

Next, both parties completed the formalities.

Lij Beifan handled the paperwork very skillfully and quickly.

The other party was very generous and transferred a year’s rent into Lin Beifan’s account on the same day.

Finally, holding the signed contract, Lin Beifan waved his hand and said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. I wish you all a pleasant stay!”

“Mr. Lin, wait!” called Bai Yuluo.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Beifan was puzzled.

“Mr. Lin, I want to discuss something with you!” Bai Yuluo smiled and said in a tempting tone, “Are you… interested in entering the entertainment industry?”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Lin Beifan was confused.

“I mean, Mr. Lin, you have excellent external qualities, a natural star appearance. So, I want to invite you to join my studio and become one of my artists! Are you willing?” Bai Yuluo asked expectantly.

Before Lin Beifan could react, Huang Zhengbo got excited first.

“Brother Lin, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Quickly agree! Miss Bai has many resources, and if she promotes you, you’ll quickly become popular and a big star!”

“Agree to what? I don’t want to be a star!” Lin Beifan replied helplessly and waved to Bai Yuluo, “Miss Bai, thank you, but no! I’m used to being lazy and just want to collect rent and live an easy life, not interested in being a celebrity!”

Bai Yuluo tried to persuade him, “Oh, Mr. Lin, think about it a bit more…”

“No need to think! I have something to do, so I’m leaving. Goodbye!”

…

For Lin Beifan, this matter was just a small episode.

Right now, he was focused on his acting career and had no time for other things.

On the other hand, after completing the formalities, Bai Yuluo moved into the villa.

She was extremely satisfied with the villa both inside and out, as if it was tailor-made for her. Therefore, she was very grateful to Lin Beifan for letting her have the house.

She had been wanting to invite Lin Beifan for dinner and persuade him again to join her studio.

After making two phone calls, both of which were politely rejected by Lin Beifan, Bai Yuluo couldn’t help but doubt herself.

“Could it be that I’m getting older, my looks have declined, and I can’t attract young people anymore?”

She looked at herself in the mirror and found that it wasn’t the case.

Instead, with the passage of time, she gained a touch of mature charm.

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t understand. So Bai Yuluo temporarily put aside these thoughts and focused wholeheartedly on preparing for her role in the drama.

On this day, her TV series started filming.

As her scenes hadn’t come up yet, she stayed in the RV memorizing lines and familiarizing herself with her character.

Casually raising her head, she looked through a small window and caught sight of a familiar figure. Her face showed surprise, “Isn’t that the landlord?”

“Boss, what’s wrong?” the assistant asked.

Bai Yuluo pointed to the figure outside the window, “Do you see that person? Isn’t it the landlord?”

The assistant, Yuxia, looked up and exclaimed, “Yes, it’s really the landlord! What is he doing?”

The two women squeezed by the window, curious about Lin Beifan’s actions.

“Boss, it seems like he’s looking for acting opportunities!”

“He likes acting!”

A mysterious smile appeared on Bai Yuluo’s face.

“Boss, it seems like you are particularly interested in that young landlord! You called him twice before, and now you are paying special attention to him…” the assistant asked.

Bai Yuluo nodded generously, “Yes! Xiaoyu, don’t you think that landlord would make a great star?”

“He’s definitely a perfect fit! Excellent looks, great physique, and even better temperament! To be honest, I’ve been in the entertainment industry for a few years, and I’ve never seen anyone as handsome as him!” the assistant exclaimed excitedly.

“Yes, he has a natural star quality, perfect for the spotlight! It’s a shame he’s not pursuing a career in the entertainment industry! Our studio could really use someone like him! Xiaoyu, do me a favor…”

…

Meanwhile, Lin Beifan couldn’t help but sigh in frustration.

In the past few days, he had been keeping an eye on the WeChat group and wandering around the film and television city, looking for suitable opportunities.

However, it seemed like his luck had run out with the role of the old man from the Heavenly Secrets.

Finding roles of dead people was relatively easy…

Finding roles of skilled characters is also easy.

But finding a role that is both a skilled character and a deceased person is not easy.

So for several consecutive days, Lin Beifan hadn’t found a suitable role.

“It’s strange. Today, before going out, I divined for myself and it showed that auspicious stars are shining on me today, and there will be benefactors helping me. Why haven’t there been any changes so far?” Lin Beifan muttered to himself in confusion.

Just then, he saw a familiar woman approaching.

It was Bai Yuluo, the national goddess’s assistant, Yuxia.

She waved her chubby little hand excitedly and said, “Landlord, long time no see!”

Lin Beifan nodded with a smile, “It’s Yuxia, the assistant. Long time no see! What brings you here… is your boss filming nearby?”

Yuxia nodded and smiled, revealing two dimples, “Yes, indeed! My boss is filming over there! She wants to invite you to come over and have a chat. Do you have time?”

“Well…” Lin Beifan hesitated.

“Landlord oppa, it won’t take much of your time!”

Suddenly, Lin Beifan remembered the fortune-telling sign, and he nodded, “Okay!”

In a moment, amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Lin Beifan walked into the RV.

By this time, Bai Yuluo had changed into a light blue plain dress, tied her jet-black hair into a ponytail with a light green headscarf, and only a wisp of bangs framed her beautiful face, making her look exceptionally radiant.

When she saw Lin Beifan walk in, Bai Yuluo put down the notebook in her hands and greeted him with a bright smile.

“Mr. Landlord, long time no see! I invited you twice, but you were difficult to invite out. You’re really hard to get a hold of!” Her voice carried a teasing tone.

Lin Beifan smiled awkwardly, “I’ve been busy…”

Bai Yuluo’s lips curved, her eyes seemingly smiling, “Busy with filming?”

“Yes, busy with filming!”

Lin Beifan quickly defended himself, “I’m really interested in acting. Whenever I see an opportunity to act, I forget about everything else. I hope you understand!”

“Is that so?” Bai Yuluo took out a notebook and handed it over.

“Mr. Landlord, here are a few roles. Are you interested?”

Lin Beifan’s eyes lit up, “Let me take a look!”
