Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

"I've already talked about the tea plantation issue before, now you're starting to feel the headache?"

Yang Ke also sat at home and spoke to Gu Jia.

"Brother Wang, please help me out. This tea factory is really good, but it hasn't developed because it lacks management skills."

"if only...."

Gu Jia also began to plead with Yang Ke.

Because she knew that she couldn't save the tea factory with so many problems on her own.

How is Zhong Xiaoqin now?

Yang Ke didn't talk about the tea factory, but instead asked about what he cared about most.

“No problem, Zhong Xiaoqin has already forgotten Chen Yu.”

"Moreover, at my and Manni's urging, she has already told her family about her divorce from Chen Yu and deleted Chen Yu's contact information."

“She’s spent quite a bit of money with us lately, and now she’s worried about it.”

"In the end, she's indecisive. After you come, Brother Wang, Manni and I will help you fulfill your dream."

Gu Jia doesn't feel guilty about sacrificing her friends; she's only thinking about her career success.

Besides, Gu Jia and Wang Manni are both in Yang Ke's hands, how could Zhong Xiaoqin possibly escape?

Rather than letting Yang Ke manipulate Zhong Xiaoqin himself, it would be better to have Zhong Xiaoqin help him gain Yang Ke's support to develop the tea factory.

Since Gu Jia had already decided to sacrifice her best friend, Yang Ke naturally didn't dwell on the method and went directly to the province where Gu Jia's tea factory was located the next day.

"Brother Wang."

When Gu Jia saw Yang Ke arrive, she quickly came to greet him.

"These are the qualifications and procedures your tea factory needs. Mrs. Li was just deliberately obstructing you before, but now she has taken care of them all for you."

Yang Ke didn't play any games of coaxing or playing hard to get; he simply handed the paperwork to Gu Jia.

"Thank you, Brother Wang. I don't know what I would have done without you."

Seeing that everyone was busy, with Zhong Xiaoqin and Wang Manni helping out, Gu Jia closed the office door and locked it before approaching Yang Ke.

"That's good, you've become much more sensible lately."

Yang Ke was satisfied with Gu Jia's actions.

With his help recently, Gu Jia's appearance has returned to what it was before she was 25, which is why Gu Jia is so proactive.

Everyone has a love for beauty.

Since they were in the office, Gu Jia had no choice but to reluctantly give up the opportunity and chat with Yang Ke about serious matters for a while.

After that, Gu Jia discussed the evening's events with Yang Ke.

Actually, it's not that difficult; you can just get Zhong Xiaoqin drunk.

He didn't pay attention to Gu Jia's arrangements, so he just told Gu Jia to go and make the preparations.

At 6 p.m., after Gu Jia and the other two finished their work at the tea factory, they took Yang Ke to the villa they had rented.

Although it's called a villa, it's actually more like a rural guesthouse, and it's the best place Gu Jia could find around here.

It's in the mountains, after all. If we went to the city, there would be plenty of nice hotels and restaurants.

But going to those places and creating opportunities would require multiple steps, so Gu Jia simply brought Yang Ke to where they were staying.

"Xiaoqin used to work at Junyue Mansion, right? What are your plans now?"

Yang Ke smiled and started chatting with Zhong Xiaoqin.

"She will be my secretary from now on. I won't let her go out and be fooled by others."

Gu Jia knew that Zhong Xiaoqin and Yang Ke were not very familiar with each other, so she took over the conversation.

"Yes, I'll be Gu Jia's little follower from now on."

Zhong Xiaoqin wasn't good at these kinds of social engagements, so she could only agree to Gu Jia's suggestion.

Yang Ke didn't mind, and the four of them ate and drank in a harmonious manner.

"Xiaoqin, Xiaoqin?"

After watching Zhong Xiaoqin, who had been coaxed into drinking several glasses of red wine while eating, pass out, Gu Jia went over to test her.

"Brother Wang, Xiaoqin seems to have passed out drunk. I'll have to trouble you to carry her to her room."

Gu Jia gestured to Yang Ke to help carry Zhong Xiaoqin down.

"Oh, then you guys lend a hand too."

Yang Ke quickly realized that although Zhong Xiaoqin had drunk quite a bit, she wasn't really drunk.

However, since Zhong Xiaoqin is curious, I'll satisfy her curiosity.

"Brother Wang, Xiaoqin is still here..."

Gu Jia saw Yang Ke's eyes and immediately guessed what was going on, so she pretended to be serious.

"What's wrong with these three people..."

"That Gu Jia is really something, she didn't even know to keep her distance from me. If I had known, I would have really gotten drunk."

"Ah, whose hand is this..."

Zhong Xiaoqin had been listening for two hours and was already getting fed up. Seeing the three of them still continuing, she couldn't help but silently complain to herself.

Just as Zhong Xiaoqin was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt a gentleman's hand reach out, which almost made her cry out.

At first, they thought it was an accident caused by the three of them being too busy, but as the situation got worse, Zhong Xiaoqin had no choice but to push them away.

"No, don't do this..."

Zhong Xiaoqin quickly pushed Yang Ke's hand away.

Unfortunately, Zhong Xiaoqin's words were not as true as her physical condition, and Yang Ke, knowing this, naturally wouldn't hold back.

"Congratulations, host, for successfully capturing Zhong Xiaoqin and the entire group of female protagonists in 'Nothing But Thirty'. Your reward is the permanent talent of photographic memory."

Not bad. This time, I managed to win over Zhong Xiaoqin and also made the three of them comrades-in-arms, so the reward became the talent of photographic memory.

Day 2.

"Gu Jia, you're bullying me too."

Zhong Xiaoqin felt very wronged, after all, it was not pleasant to be betrayed by her best friend.

"Alright, you didn't seem upset at all last night. Besides, we're best friends, would I ever hurt you?"

Gu Jia was adept at manipulating Zhong Xiaoqin, showing no remorse whatsoever, and instead gave Zhong Xiaoqin a long lecture.

What could Zhong Xiaoqin, who was already somewhat resigned to her fate, say? The atmosphere last night, plus the fact that she had drunk too much, had made her take the initiative. If she wanted to say that she was resistant now, that would be a blatant lie.

"Alright, alright, what's the loss in coming from me? Xiaoqin, you were so happy last night that you almost fainted."

Seeing Zhong Xiaoqin pouting, Yang Ke immediately smiled and pulled her to his side to tease her.

"Stop talking."

Zhong Xiaoqin had never heard such a joke before, and immediately blushed.

"Alright, I'm going to the tea factory with Manni. You'll be taking care of Xiaoqin today."

Gu Jia knew that Zhong Xiaoqin was enjoying herself, so she took Wang Manni and left, leaving the two of them alone.

When Gu Jia returned with Wang Manni that evening, Zhong Xiaoqin was still eating obediently, which Gu Jia found a bit unbearable to watch.

"Honestly, she looked so resistant at noon, how come she's still sneaking a bite now?"

Gu Jia rolled her eyes at Zhong Xiaoqin.

After spending two weeks at Gu Jia's tea factory, Yang Ke returned to Shanghai.

The three of them would only return once the tea factory was up and running, but Yang Ke didn't mind, since he and the other two had been well-fed and watered for the past two weeks.

"Congratulations, host, for completing all the tasks in the Thirty Nothing film and television world. You are rewarded with a 20% life sublimation and can travel to the next world at any time."

The system also sent a message when Yang Ke left the villa.

"Okay, same as always, stay for a month before you leave."

"System, remind me in a month."

Yang Ke also chose to leave the world of Nothing But Thirty a month later, mainly to store more money in his spatial ring so that things would be easier when he went to the next world.
