The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard-Chapter 386
Chapter 386: 386
Ye Tian rubbed his red eyes and sighed, then looked at Mo Yu, "Does this work?"
Mo Yu nodded, "This will do."
"Then let’s go."
"What about him?"
Ye Tian glanced at Chen Yu, who was lying on the table, and asked, "What do you think about him?"
Mo Yu shook her head, "No feeling, not electrifying, an insulator."
"Alright, got it. Then let’s go."
"We’re just leaving him?"
"Just a kid. Why bother arguing with him? We will have to speak to him again in the future."
Ye Tian turned around, grabbed Mo Yu’s hand, then headed towards the door.
A blush spread across both of Mo Yu’s cheeks.
...
Ye Tian arrived at the school He Ku was about to attend, walked around the entrance, then stood among the crowd watching the school entrance, closely examining He Ku’s school.
Mo Yu said she would buy him some sobering items and asked him to wait here.
"Hey, brother, looking for a job?"
A long-haired man came over, leaned against the railing beside Ye Tian, who noticed his face was full of wrinkles, puffy eyes, dressed in construction worker clothes, green rubber shoes, a short thick neck, looking like someone but he couldn’t quite place who.
Ye Tian smiled and offered a cigarette, "Brother, what do you do?"
The man lit the cigarette with a lighter featuring a bikini girl, enjoying the puff, and pointed in a direction, "Actor."
Ye Tian looked over; it was the film academy’s location. So, he was an actor.
"Extra?"
"For now. Maybe someday I’ll be a big star. Heh, brother, who do you think I look like?"
"I felt you looked familiar at first glance, but thinking harder, can’t remember, almost like a movie star."
The construction worker-looking actor smiled, showing his yellow teeth, "Do I look like that movie actor...what’s his name, Huang Bo? Do I look like him?"
Suddenly it clicked, Ye Tian realized, "Yes, yes, exactly him, especially the way you smoke and your hairstyle, very much alike."
The man was clearly proud, "Brother, do you know what kind of movies I act in?"
"What kind of movies?"
"Heh, I act in comedies. Stephen Chow, you know? Wu Mengda! Ah, Liu Zheng! You know, the hottest comedy stars now!"
Although Ye Tian wasn’t familiar with these people, he recognized the names and nodded. Seeing him nod, the other person was obviously surprised, "I do the same job as these folks, bring laughter to the masses, although I’m not very famous yet, but I firmly believe I will be successful in the future. Do you know who my idol is?"
"Who?"
"Wang Baoqiang. Brother Qiang, that guy who plays the fool. One day, I’ll be a big star like him."
Ye Tian changed the topic noncommittally, "Comedy is good, brings joy to people, I like comedies. Your field must be quite fun, right?"
The man waved his hand, "There’s fun to be had, but it’s fun amid hardship, in fact, comedy is the hardest to perform. Outsiders think we just goof around, but we suffer more than those who perform tragedies. In tragedies, making people cry is enough, at worst you cry along, but in comedies? You laugh, but others may not, and they might even think you’re stupid. Isn’t it true?"
Ye Tian thought for a moment, nodded, "Seems so."
"So, you see, comedians can’t be forced, it requires talent. Hehe, most importantly, you need an optimistic mindset. Look, there are almost a thousand people here, many have been here for decades. If they were weak-hearted, they’d have gone home by now. Acting in films that no one watches and not even showing your face, there are tons of extras who play dead. How’s that for mental strength, impressive right?"
Ye Tian nodded, that’s how it was.
"Hey! I need ten people here, to act as soldiers, who’s coming!"
From a distance, someone holding a sign was vigorously shaking it, quickly attracting a large crowd.
"Alright brother, you rest, I’m off to work."
This "Huang Bo" joined the scramble to get roles too, Ye Tian shook his head, smiled, and turned to continue observing the school.
Mo Yu walked over, glanced at the man who just walked away, handed over a cup of tea, and asked, "Your friend? That guy just now?"
"Not him. A comedy extra, just chatted idly for a bit."
"Pssh, dreaming all day about being a big star, what a future!"
Ye Tian glanced at her, "How do you know he’s got no future? Who said being a movie star is the only way to have a future, comrade? You might want to rethink that."
Flicking away Ye Tian’s finger on her forehead, "Enough, let’s head home."
"No," Ye Tian didn’t follow her, "I can’t go back now, I still have some matters to deal with, if needed, I’ll come find you at your grandfather’s place. See you."
Ye Tian waved his hand, tightened his backpack, ready to leave, but then heard Mo Yu from behind, "My sister is back, she said she has something to tell you."
Hearing this, Ye Tian suddenly stopped, his whole body froze.
Mo Yan was back, which meant he was likely to meet his beloved Tang Su soon. The fate of Tang Su, who might now appear lively and hug him tightly until he couldn’t breathe, was unknown.
"Let’s go! Take me to her!"
"She’s at my grandfather’s! Ah! Slow down!"
Almost sprinting, Ye Tian forcefully pulled Mo Yu into a taxi, urging the driver to hurry, speeding along the way almost getting fined. Ye Tian felt even this driver’s skills were subpar, not knowing the basics of drifting, absolutely terrible. If not for Mo Yu calming the driver’s temper, the driver might have snapped at Ye Tian’s constant complaints, "If you’re not happy, you drive!" Luckily he didn’t say that, otherwise, in Ye Tian’s hands, the car probably wouldn’t stand a chance.
