Huayu is here for you

Lin Yu knew that banquets are never good, and seeing Da Mimi revealing her true colors, Lin Yu realized: I still miscalculated!

If he hadn't met Yang Mi when he visited Liu on the set of The Return of the Condor Heroes, he would have been ready to flip the table today.

"I see, you came here today to trick me into telling you things. You said you just wanted to invite me to dinner? So that's what you were waiting for!"

"Hehe... don't mind me, senior! I'm just a little curious, please satisfy my curiosity!" Yang Mi continued to probe, oblivious to the danger.

Lin Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw Da Mimi's suicidal expression.

"No, have I disappointed you?"

"Huh? No? That can't be! Are you lying to me?" Yang Mi was clearly not satisfied with Lin Yu's answer.

"No, you can call her right now if you don't believe me."

Looking at Lin Yu's serious expression, Yang Mi couldn't help but waver a little.

Originally, when she was chatting with Ms. Liu, Ms. Liu was always very excited whenever they talked about Linyu, which didn't seem like they were talking about ordinary friends at all.

Furthermore, Lin Yu invited Liu Yifei to star in his movie and attended her birthday party. After all that, they're still not a couple? Does such a pure friendship between opposite sexes really exist in this world?

Lin Yu wasn't lying, of course, because he still owed Miss Liu a formal confession; they weren't officially together yet.

Although this confession is optional, the procedure still needs to be followed, and Miss Liu is probably waiting for him to go through this process! Therefore, Lin Yu is not afraid at all that Yang Mi will try to trick Miss Liu into revealing information.

Although Da Mimi's intelligence could easily outwit Miss Liu, she could only manage to extract information that Lin Yu and Miss Liu had feelings for each other. After all, how could she define something that hadn't even happened yet?

"Okay, I thought I'd caught a huge scoop—the fairy-like beauty and the rising star director, what a juicy story! Sigh... what a pity." Yang Mi said with a disappointed look.

"Hehe, you're trying to find something on me, aren't you?" Lin Yu said with a mocking smile.

"Hehe... When chatting, we always need to get down to business, but... senior! Aren't you really tempted? She's a goddess and the campus goddess!" Yang Mi laughed heartily.

Lin Yu's eyes lit up with a slight smile. "Honey, you're not bad looking either. Aren't you going to ask me if I'm attracted to you?"

Da Mimi's expression froze for a moment, and she involuntarily asked, "Then are you attracted to me?"

"I won't move! I don't like square faces."

"You...you did this on purpose!"

"I did it on purpose, hehe, trying to trick me into telling me things? How dare you!"

"Hmph! Changing the subject, you're just feeling guilty. If you like our fairy sister, just say so! Maybe I can even help you!" Yang Mi coaxed persistently.

"Do I need your help? Miss Liu is already mine," Lin Yu thought to himself.

"Hehe... You don't need to trouble yourself with this. If I like someone, I'll go after them myself. I don't need you. By the way... if you really don't have anything else to talk about, just shut up and eat your food." Lin Yu said with a half-smile.

Yang Mi, seeing that Lin Yu was completely unmoved, gave up entirely. "Senior, you've finished filming all your movies abroad, how about making a new one in China?"

"What? You want to volunteer?" Lin Yu said with a hint of teasing.

"Hehe... I can't just treat you to this roast duck for nothing, senior, why don't you consider it? I'm fine with any role." Da Mimi grinned.

Lin Yu looked at the already well-established Da Mi Mi and fell into deep thought.

He did have a movie in mind that would be suitable for Yang Mi, but it was impossible to get him to come up with it after just one meal. Besides, their relationship was only at the beginning, and Lin Yu didn't have any other feelings for Yang Mi right now, so...

"We'll see. I'll call you if a suitable role comes along."

"Alright, I've been waiting for you to say that, senior. Here, let me wrap one for you."

Da Mimi immediately wrapped a few slices of the freshly served roast duck into a pancake for Lin Yu, and thoughtfully added a few cucumbers and scallions as well.

"You eat it yourself! You didn't even touch the sauce, and you say you've eaten it several times? Is this how you eat?"

"Senior, you're going too far! I've never been wrapped up like this before. You..."

An hour later, Lin Yu stood alone at the restaurant entrance, looking at his empty wallet, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

He not only paid for his own meals, but he also paid for Da Mimi's taxi fare back to school.

What a weirdo! Yang Mi forgot her wallet!

Lin Yu never expected that such a melodramatic thing would actually happen to him.

After regaining his composure, Lin Yu took out his phone from his pocket and called Huang Bo.

"Brother Bo, come pick me up at Quanjude in XX area."

"Yes, I lost my wallet."

The next day, Lin Yu woke up in his own bed and the first thing he did was to go to the nearby ATM and withdraw five thousand yuan to fill his small wallet.

He also secretly made a resolution that before mobile payment became available, he would not let his wallet suffer any more, because nowadays he could not just swipe his card anywhere.

In the days leading up to the Golden Rooster Awards, Lin Yu received many calls trying to build a relationship with him. Companies like Enlight Media, Wanda Group, and Huayi Brothers were all asking him if he had any plans to start a new film. Even Han Sanping called to ask if he needed investment.

Lin Yu was puzzled. Were these people all treating him like a donkey? One after another?

Not only did Lin Yu receive calls from these film companies, but he also received a call from the Olympic Organizing Committee, wanting him to run for the position of chief director of the Olympics. Lin Yu, of course, refused without hesitation.

Lin Yu said: "It's okay to go and take a look, and it would be alright if I could help out in a small way, but I won't go to run for election in a real sense."

He doesn't have the ability to take the place of the National Preceptor; let Zhang Yimou do it. However, he is quite curious about his senior brother Chen Kaige's famous scene of reciting poetry.

I don't know if it's like the legend from my previous life, but other directors submitted their proposals in huge quantities, while Director Chen only brought a poem.

During this time, Uncle Long and Ying Huang, through Han Sanping's connections, invited Lin Yu to attend the premiere of "The Myth". Lin Yu was quite curious about this premiere, which cost nearly 40 million yuan, so he told them that he would definitely attend, and his attitude was very sincere.

Next, we'll prepare to attend the Golden Rooster Awards with Ms. Liu. Awards for film and television are still highly valued in China.

Not to mention that this is Ms. Liu's first award in her life, Lin Yu can't spoil her fun.
