The Long Awaited MR Han Chapter 414 440

Chapter 412: Stop Making Such a Big Fuss
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Qi tugged onto Xia Qingyang. “Mom, where are you going?”
“Of course I’m going to Xia Qingwei’s house!” Xia Qingyang’s face was
ferocious and vicious. “That b*tch, she’s still trying to seduce men at this
age! I’ll never forgive her!”
“Mom!” Lu Qi was furious and pulled Xia Qingyang back. “Stop making
such a big fuss!”
“Me? Making a big fuss? Even you’re saying that I’m making a big fuss?
Your father is about to be seduced and stolen by that b*tch, yet you don’t
even know to help me! Do you know why your father has been so
annoyed at me lately? Isn’t it because I keep urging him to help you? I
did everything for your sake and now you’re actually telling me off!”
Feeling wronged, Xia Qingyang cried out of indignance. Lu Qi rubbed

her temples, her head aching terribly. “Mom, if you really want to help
me, then do go and cause a huge fuss on your own, alright? Did you not
learn from what happened in the past? Was there not one time when you
went to cause a huge fuss for my sake, but ended up giving Lu Man the
opportunity to flame me on the internet?”
Lu Man’s current methods had left Lu Qi a little terrified too.
It was obvious for one to get scared upon looking at Bai

Shuangshuang’s current pitiful state.
“Even if I have no popularity left now, I’m still a public figure,

nonetheless. Once something happens, the news will start flying
everywhere. My current reputation is already bad, do you want my
reputation to continue getting worse? If you go and cause a huge ruckus,
and others see it, then they will say that Lu Qi’s mother went to quarrel
and argue with the ex-wife, after that they start digging up the past
between you two, how do you expect me to still survive? If you do this,
you might as well ask me to just quit the entertainment industry!”
Xia Qingyang softened and finally stopped struggling to try to find Xia
Qingwei to settle the score. Nonetheless, still feeling rather resentful and
unwilling to give in, she said, “Then what else can I do? Do I really just
have to let this go? I definitely can’t just swallow this down! Not just me,
look at how you’ve been bullied by Lu Man! Your father is unreliable and
useless, he can’t even deal with Lu Man. Could you possibly swallow
this down too?”
“Of course not.” When Lu Qi thought about all the difficulties and
obstacles she had faced lately, how could she just swallow it down?
“Of course not, we can’t just let them off, but we can’t be the ones who
do it personally too, we can’t do it in front of others either. We can plot
against them behind their backs. We’ll make them suffer the worst
misfortune of their lives and let them experience all the difficulties we
have been through. However, being so impulsive like this and just
charging headfirst at them will only let them grab a hold of us and gain
an advantage. Moreover, the more you behave like this, the more Dad
will feel disgusted and annoyed. Mom, have you forgotten what Dad
liked the most about you from the start? He liked your gentleness the
most, he liked how you would rely and depend on him no matter what,
and hence stroke his ego and satisfy his pride. And not behave like Xia
Qingwei, who was so capable, making him feel like he couldn’t compare
to her.”
Listening to Lu Qi’s reasonable words, Xia Qingyang gradually calmed

down.
Lu Qi seized the opportunity and took Xia Qingyang’s coat off. Xia
Qingyang said, “But I still can’t just freely let your father look for that
b*tch Xia Qingwei either!”
“Then call him back.”
“How? It’s not like you didn’t see it earlier, he is insistent on looking for
Xia Qingwei!”
Lu Qi held back her urge to roll her eyes. From start to the end, Lu
Qiyuan had never said that he was going to look for Xia Qingwei.
Originally, they were having a nice dinner on Chinese New Year eve, but
Xia Qingyang just had to keep mentioning Xia Qingwei.
Perhaps Lu Qiyuan originally wasn’t even planning on looking for Xia

Qingwei, but after Xia Qingyang mentioned it, he might have really
thought about Xia Qingwei instead.
Although feeling resigned, Lu Qi’s heart was burning with anger and
hatred too. She definitely couldn’t let Xia Qingwei and Lu Qiyuan
rekindle any spark between them or let Xia Qingwei and Lu Man gain
any benefits.
Chapter 413: Don’t Even Want My Life

All these benefits definitely have to be hers!
“Mom, he didn’t care about you crying and making a fuss. But if you
don’t even want your life, would Dad still not care?
Xia Qingyang’s mind ticked and her face paled instantly, beads of cold
sweat forming on her forehead. Looking at Lu Qi’s cold expression, she
asked dryly, incredulously, “Don’t even want my life… You even want me
to commit suicide?”
Lu Qi sighed. “I’m not asking you to commit suicide in real, what were
you thinking? You’re my mother, why will I ever harm or hurt you?”
Xia Qingyang sighed in relief, and heard Lu Qi say, “You just need to put
on a show, that’s all!”
Therefore, Lu Qiyuan received a phone call regarding her Xia

Qingyang’s suicidal attempt from the maid.
Although he clearly knew that Xia Qingyang wouldn’t make a joke about
her own life, Lu Qiyuan still had to return home.
“Where’s Madam?” Entering the house, Lu Qiyuan asked, his voice low
and dark.
“Madam is lying in the bedroom.” Auntie Chen took Lu Qiyuan’s coat

from him.
Lu Qiyuan’s face darkened even more when he went to the bedroom

only to see Lu Qi staying by Xia Qingyang’s bed.
Xia Qingyang’s face was surprisingly really pale and devoid of any color.
Her wrist was even covered in bandages.
Lu Qiyuan’s eyebrows jumped in surprise. Did Xia Qingyang really try to

end her life?
Lu Qiyuan had never expected Xia Qingyang to really do something so

extreme because of him.
Suddenly, an indescribable strange feeling rose in his chest, yet at the

same time, he felt a little smug. Xia Qingyang really treated him like he
was her whole world.
Seeing Lu Qiyuan return, Xia Qingyang hurriedly tried to sit up but was
stopped by Lu Qi. “Mom, please lie down and try not to move about.”
Lu Qiyuan sighed and walked over to sit on the side of the bed. “Qi Qi is
right, stop moving about. Why… why were you so foolish!”
Xia Qingyang’s broke into tears, her tears streaming endlessly down her
face. “Isn’t it because I’m scared that you don’t want me anymore?”
Xia Qingyang’s hand trembled as she grabbed onto Lu Qiyuan’s hand as

if she was holding onto her own life. “Qiyuan, I only have you, please
don’t ever abandon me.”
Her words struck a chord with Lu Qiyuan and he sighed. “Why wouldn’t I
want you? I didn’t go to find Xia Qingwei at all. It’s just that my mood
wasn’t that great, so I wanted to just go out and take a stroll, relax a little.
Don’t overthink it.”
“Mm.” Xia Qingyang nodded pitifully. “It’s all my fault. I foolishly
suspected you without any reason. Qiyuan, can you forgive me?”
“Yes.” Lu Qiyuan patted Xia Qingwei’s shoulder lightly, thinking that she
only did this because she cared for him, he couldn’t stay angry anymore.
“You too, why did you mention Xia Qingwei for no reason? I’ve been
married to you for so many years, yet why do you still care about what
she does. It’s just I was already troubled by matters at work and you kept
dragging the conversation to Xia Qingwei, I just couldn’t stand it
anymore and so I wanted to go out.”
“Would… wouldn’t it be good if you could just explain it to me? You can
tell me about what’s troubling you at work too. Even if I might not know
anything, and can’t help you much, it will be good for you to just have a
listening ear.” Xia Qingyang showed her meek demeanor. “Qiyuan, I
won’t keep mentioning Xia Qingwei anymore, I know I was wrong. In the
future, if anything is troubling you, just tell me, don’t bottle it up, it just
makes my heart ache.”
“Alright.” Lu Qiyuan finally smiled.
This is what Xia Qingyang should be!
As expected, it was because Xia Qingyang cared too much about him
that she overstepped her boundaries.
“Mom, Dad just got back. Because he was worried about you, he didn’t
bother changing out of his clothes. Let Dad change first,” Lu Qi
thoughtfully mentioned, standing at the side.
Xia Qingyang hurriedly let go of Lu Qiyuan’s arm. As if he was

everything to her, she said, “Lu Qiyuan, don’t worry about me.”
“I’m already back, how could I not care about you?” Lu Qiyuan said.
“Dad, Mom, just now you didn’t even eat much for dinner. I’ll get Auntie
Chen to prepare something.”
After Lu Qiyuan nodded to her, Lu Qi left the bedroom, leaving Lu
Qiyuan and Xia Qingyang behind.
Chapter 414: Where Did The Liberal Mother-in-law Go?

While Lu Qiyuan changed his clothes, Xia Qingyang’s gaze didn’t move
a single bit away from him.
Instantly, Lu Qiyuan’s mood lifted up even more.
However, it was just that when he was taking care of Xia Qingyang,
somehow Xia Qingwei’s delighted face under the fireworks appeared in
his mind for no reason, and he got distracted temporarily.
***
Meanwhile, Xia Qingwei and Lu Man were unaware of Xia Qingyang

almost stirring up more trouble for them.
Xia Qingwei did not even know that her ex-husband, Lu Qiyuan, had
started to think about her again.
After the two of them finished setting off the fireworks, they went back
home to continue watching the Spring Festival Gala on television.
When the clock struck 12, Lu Man went to cook the dumplings and ate it
with Xia Qingwei. Then they stayed up late on New Year’s eve.
Although there was the tradition of staying up awake on New Year’s eve,
not many people followed it anymore.
Even though Lu Man and Xia Qingwei were not traditional, orthodox
people, this year Lu Man was celebrating the New Year’s Eve for the first
time with Xia Qingwei after her divorce with Lu Qiyuan, hence it was a
very precious, joyful occasion for them.
The two of them hadn’t agreed on it earlier, they just happened to follow
it as if they had already decided it.
Finally, at 2 o’clock, they had exhausted their stamina and couldn’t stay
up anymore. Even the dumplings in their stomach were mostly digested.
Coming to an agreement, Lu Man and Xia Qingwei smiled at each other

and said goodnight before going to their own rooms to sleep.
Lu Man huddled under the warm blanket, feeling delighted.
This was the first time in many years that she slept with a smile on New
Year’s Eve.
***
As expected, on the first day of the New Year, Han Zhuoli came to pay
Xia Qingwei New Year’s greeting early in the morning.
Xia Qingwei had slept very little and had woken up very early, while Lu
Man was still sleeping.
It was a rare holiday, and Xia Qingwei had originally wanted Lu Man to
rest more, so she let Lu Man sleep until she woke up by herself, not
planning to wake her up at all.
When Han Zhuoli came, Xia Qingwei said, “Lu Man is not awake yet,
please wait, I’ll go call her first.”
“No need.” Han Zhuoli hurriedly stopped her. “Let her sleep, it’s just that
I came early.”
“It’s already past ten, it’s not early anymore,” Xia Qingwei smiled and
said, “You can go and sit, I was just planning to boil water to make tea,
there are some fruits and snacks on the coffee table, there’s no need to
be shy.”
As expected, Han Zhuoli was not shy at all. “Mom, then I’ll go directly to
Lu Man’s room.”
Xia Qingwei: “…”
Haha, really not shy at all.
With a serious face, Han Zhuoli said, “I won’t do anything else, I’m just
going to see her, I’ll be happy with just watching her sleep peacefully
from the side.”
It’s the broad daylight, what did you want to do?
Xia Qingwei had already decided to let them take their relationship
further, and since Han Zhuoli had already stayed over in their house for
two nights and Lu Man did not do anything past the normal conventions
with Han Zhuoli, Xia Qingwei was still quite reassured about this.
Although not very eager and a little bit unhappy, she could only wave her
hand. “Go, go. I’m in the house, how would you dare to do anything
else.”
Han Zhuoli, “…”
Where did the liberal mother-in-law go?
Hence, Han Zhuoli entered Lu Man’s room in front of Xia Qingwei.
Normally, Lu Man would always sleep soundly. Right now, she was lying
on her side and curled up in the shape of a shrimp, with her blanket
pulled up till her jaw, covering her delicate jaw, and only exposed her red
lips and her sharp nose.
With her eyes closed, her long and curly eyelashes covered her eyelids
delicately.
Usually, when her eyes were open wide, her eyes, one could clearly see
the misty black orbs of her big eyes and whenever she blinked her
eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a butterfly.
At this moment, she looked serene and beautiful.
Han Zhuoli felt that he could just stare at her the whole day, getting
immersed in her eternal beauty.
Hence, he decided to just take a seat, his hand supporting his jaw as he
really kept looking looked at Lu Man sleep peacefully.
Even after a long time, Han Zhuoli did not feel tired at all.
Chapter 415: His Little Girl was Really Picky upon

Waking Up
Sometime after 11 o’clock, Lu Man finally woke up, rubbing her eyes. It
looked like she had a good sleep.
She really hadn’t slept so peacefully and for so long in the past few days.
When she opened her eyes and was about to get up, she suddenly saw
a big face staring right at her that scared the wits out of her, making her
almost scream in shock.
However, when she took another look, she realized it was Han Zhuoli.
Lu Man patted her chest in relief and relaxed.
However, she had just managed to calm down halfway when she was
shocked to the core again.
She remembered that today was the first day of the New Year, and Han
Zhuoli had said that he would come to pay his New Year greetings.
But who would have thought that he would directly watch her sleep!
What was wrong with him!
Suddenly, Lu Man realized that she might be looking like a mess and her
face was mostly a bit swollen after having slept for so long.
“When did you come here?” Lu Man covered her face with her hands,
only showing her two big misty eyes through the cracks between her
fingers.
Han Zhuoli raised his wrist to take a look at his watch. “I’ve been here for
around an hour.”
Lu Man: “…”
“Then how long have you been in my room?”
Han Zhuoli put down his wrist and smiled innocuously at Lu Man. “It’s
also around an hour.”
Lu Man: “…”
Could it be that as soon as he entered the house, he came directly to her

bedroom?
“So you just watched me sleep for around an hour?” Lu Man said,
speechless.
“En.” Han Zhuoli nodded his head, not feeling even an ounce of guilt.
Suddenly he grabbed Lu Man’s wrist, trying to remove her hand from her
face. “Why are you constantly covering your face?”
“I just woke up and my face is a bit swollen, it’s not a good view.” Lu Man
refused to put her hand down.
“No, I saw how you looked sleeping just now, it’s quite beautiful,” Han
Zhuoli said as he pulled her hand down.
And in the end, at the same time, Lu Man directly lay on the bed, burying
her face in the blankets.
Why did he never realize that this girl’s reaction was so fast?
“It’s really not swollen,” Han Zhuoli said seriously.
“Still it’s not nice, I haven’t watched my face yet,” Lu Man buried her face
in her blankets further, and said in a muffled voice.
“Whether it looks nice or not, I’ve already seen it just now, what’s the use
of you hiding now?” Han Zhuoli raised his long legs, and stepped onto
the bed, and started tickling her waist.
Lu Man was especially ticklish at her waist and could not help but laugh.
and she could not even stop, not able to even be a bit energetic.
Han Zhuoli seized the opportunity and flipped her over, his hands
pinning her hands above on
either side of her face.
Lu Man quickly closed her eyes and turned her face sideways.
Han Zhuoli’s lips curved up a little, why was it that she was so cute after
she just woke up?
This invoked his desire to see her wake up next to him and be in a
groggy state every morning.
Meanwhile, the proverb ‘a cat closes its eyes while drinking milk,
thinking that no one is watching it’ was really applicable to Lu Man right
now. She was under the impression that with just closing her eyes, she
could escape from Han Zhouli.
On the other hand, Han Zhuoli’s gaze was fixated on the beautiful curve
of Lu Man’s neck.
Her thin and slender neck looked elegant and beautiful, making Han
Zhuoli leave light kisses on her neck.
Suddenly, she could feel the electricity course through her veins.
Lu Man hurriedly turned her head back to look at him, and Han Zhuoli
dipped his head to kiss her lips.
Sensing his intention, instantly hid her face in his arms.
So, Han Zhuoli could only kiss the corners of her lips.
“Don’t hide,” Han Zhuoli said in a low voice, his lips still pressing onto the
corner of hers, refusing to budge even a little.
Lu Man shook her head with force. “I haven’t brushed my teeth yet.”
Han Zhuoli was helpless, his little girl was really too picky upon waking
up.
However, Han Zhouli paid no heed to her, and directly held Lu Man’s
face, kissing her on the lips.
Her lips were still plump, sweet and since she had slept soundly all night,
they were rejuvenated, moist and clean.
Chapter 416: Rich people Really Know How To Play

However, Lu Man was very uncomfortable, so Han Zhuoli let go of her,

and Lu Man immediately buried her face in his embrace.
Han Zhuoli smiled dotingly, and pressed his lips against her ears, and
whispered, “Don’t you need to wake up now?”
Lu Man’s was still murmuring, her voice nasal from having just woken
up. “What time is it now?”
Han Zhuoli raised her wrist for her to take a look at her watch. “11:10.”
When Lu Man realized that she had slept all the way to almost noon, she
hurriedly got up.
She rushed to the bathroom to clean up, and since Xia Qingwei was at
home, Han Zhuoli did not dare to follow after her.
Meanwhile, Xia Qingwei cooked the special dumplings from yesterday,

and the three of them ate it together.
“Later on, Come with me to the mall. We will be meeting the elders
tomorrow, so I need to buy some presents to greet them.”
“Alright,” Han Zhuoli nodded and agreed.
After having their brunch, the two of them went to the mall, and in the
end, their hands were full of bags.
Although the gifts were not too luxurious or expensive, they were of good
quality and chosen with care.
When the two of them returned home, Han Zhuoli told Xia Qingwei that
he had bought some fireworks, and it would be wonderful to set them off
at night.
However, Xia Qingwei didn’t think much into it. After all, isn’t it just
setting off fireworks? It was too normal.
But at night, when they all reached the yard downstairs and Han Zhuoli
opened his car trunk to take the fireworks out, Xia Qingwei was
dumbstruck; the car trunk was full of fireworks. There was no space left
at all in the trunk for anything.
This was called buying some fireworks?
He probably had some misunderstanding of the word some.
On the other hand, Han Zhuoli was grinning like a big child, he put the
fireworks down one by one, and told Lu Man and Xia Qingwei, “It’s been
a long time since I’ve set off fireworks, the last time was still during
University when I came home to celebrate the New Year. That time, I set
off fireworks with Lao Chu and others, and after we finished setting them
off, Qi Chengzhi even called us childish.”
Xia Qingwei was at a loss for words. “There are so many, how are we
going to finish setting all of them off?”
But right after that, Xia Qingwei felt that she was too innocent.
She saw Han Zhuoli place the fireworks in one row and take out the
lighter. Then he quickly lit a row of fireworks and ran swiftly to Lu Man’s
side.
Soon they heard the popping sounds of fireworks, and a row of fireworks
rushed up to the sky and burst in the dark night sky. Each firework
bursting at a different height, lightning up the dark sky with colors.
She was really too innocent, rich people really knew how to play.
The long queue of fireworks bursting in the sky attracted the attention of
other people setting off firecrackers at the side. The grand display of
fireworks left them awestruck, letting out a surprised cry as they
watched.
The energetic children were especially astounded and kept screaming in

happiness.
It was also Xia Qingwei’s first time seeing someone set off a grand
display of fireworks.
After all, all the fireworks were finished and Han went up with Xia
Qingwei and Lu Man.
In the stairway, Han Zhuoli suddenly said, “Mom, can I stay here
tonight?”
Haha, he was really not shy at all now, today was no special occasion,
so now what reason did he have to stay back here?
However, she then heard Han Zhuoli say, “Don’t we need to go back to
the old family house tomorrow? Anyway, I still need to come back to
fetch Man Man, why don’t I stay here overnight and then we can leave
tomorrow together.”
How about she just directly added a bed here for him?
“Anyway, Man Man has already bought pajamas for me, it’s also
convenient to sleep here.” Han Zhuoli surprised Xia Qingwei once again.
Lu Man: “…”
Chapter 417: There Is Still You To Be The Scapegoat

Her future son-in-law was getting more and more thick-skinned, as the
mother-in-law, she was unable to control him anymore, what to do now?
Anyway, since Han Zhuoli had already made up his mind to stay here,
Xia Qingwei could only wash up early and go to rest.
Lu Man prepared a pair of pajamas for Han Zhuoli, as well a change of

clothes for tomorrow, and had Han Zhuoli bathe. Meanwhile, Lu Man
returned to Xia Qingwei’s room and seeing that this time Han Zhuoli did
not trick her into coming with him to the bathroom, Lu Man was quite
surprised.
The next day, Han Zhuoli brought Lu Man back to the old family house.
Currently, at the old family house.

Old Madam Han was wearing her new clothes for the New Year, and
was very restless, checking herself out in the mirror every few minutes.
In the end, she took a hand-held mirror to check herself out at any time.
Not able to stand it anymore, Old Master Han snickered, “What are you
doing? You’re already so old, can you stop being so anxious?”
“Am I being anxious?” The Old Madam scowled, “Nevermind, I won’t tell
you about it, even if I tell you about it, you won’t even understand.”
Old Master Han stifled a laugh, who said he did not understand?
Wasn’t Old Madam Han just feeling guilty?
Earlier, she had hidden her identity to get close to Lu Man, and now that
Lu Man was coming to visit them and she can’t continue to pretend
anymore, wouldn’t her lie be exposed? So how could the Old Madam not
be worried?
Old Master was standing tall and proud, and straightened his clothes
and collar, behaving as if he was free of any tension. At this moment, he
was humming a song, purposely making Old Madam Han see how
relaxed he was, and angering her even more.
Finally, when Han Xijin and Shen Nuo arrived, Old Madam Han hurriedly
pulled Shen Nuo over. “Ah Nuo, come and take a look, should I put on
heavy makeup? That way, Lu Man won’t recognize me.”
Shen Nuo: “…”
Even if she wore heavy makeup, Lu Man would still recognize her!
Furthermore, could it be that you are planning to keep wearing heavy

makeup every time Lu Man comes to meet you?
You would be exposed sooner or later.
However, Shen Nuo did not tell Old Madam Han that Lu Man had long
seen through her act to prevent her from being anxious even more.
As Old Madam Han had always been proud of her acting skills.
“Mom, I’m not anxious at all, don’t forget that when you hid your name
and surname, I was with you. Even if it’s exposed, we will both go down
together.” She already had a scapegoat, didn’t she?
When the Old Madam heard it, she relaxed quite a bit. “That’s right, I still
have you as a scapegoat. I am your elder, so Lu Man won’t dare to be
angry at me.”
Shen Nuo: “…”
Even if she knew she was the scapegoat, don’t say it out loud.
“Haha, I’m her future mother-in-law, she won’t dare to be angry at me

too,” Shen Nuo sneered.
Old Madam: “…”
With Shen Nuo there, the Old Madam was finally sitting still, but soon,
she went to ask Butler Wang, “Xiao Wang, is everything ready? There’s
no problem with the menu this afternoon, right? The ingredients are
fresh, right? Prepare some more spicy dishes, Lu Man likes to eat spicy
food.”
Butler Wang maintained a smile throughout. “Old Madam, don’t worry,

everything has been prepared.”
The Old Master laughed at Old Madam in his heart, this Old Madam was
unhappy with Lu Man at the start, how long had it been since then, and
she’s already caring about her so much!
Although there were no other problems, Old Madam Han’s anxiety didn’t
let her sit still and she went to look out of the floor-length windows in the
living room.
At around 10.30, she finally saw Han Zhuoli’s Mulsanne drive through
the gates and stop in the parking lot in the yard.
Then she saw Han Zhuoli and Lu Man get down from the car and take
out presents in big and small bags.
Overjoyed, Old Madam Han rushed back and sat down on the sofa.
Soon, the doorbell rang.
Butler Wang went to open the door, and Han Zhuoli brought Lu Man in.
Chapter 418: Couldn’t get a Girlfriend!

Feeling guilty, Old Madam hid behind other, so that she would be the
last person for Lu Man to see.
Not only did she go to the end, but she also pushed Shen Nuo to the
front.
Shen Nuo: “…”
When Lu Man entered, the first people she saw were Han Xijin and Shen
Nuo who were standing right in front.
Seeing Shen Nuo, Lu Man wasn’t surprised at all. “Uncle, Auntie.”
Shen Nuo smiled composedly. “You’re here.”
At that moment, Old Madam instantly felt that something was not right.
Just then, Han Zhuoli brought Lu Man forwards and she saw Old Master
Han and Old Madam Han.
All this while, Lu Man was very calm and composed. She then heard
Han Zhuoli say, “This is my Grandma and my Grandpa, you can address
them the same way.”
Although Lu Man was already familiar with the Old Madam, it was her
first time meeting Old Master Han. Seeing that the Old Master wasn’t
against it and did not have a scowl on his face, she smiled and greeted
them, “Grandpa, Grandma.”
Old Madam Han coughed, “Lu Man ah.”
“Grandma.” Lu Man smiled and greeted her once again.
Old Madam Han started to have misgivings, and asked, “You don’t find
me familiar?”
“…” Lu Man was trying to not laugh or break into a smile. Originally, she
wanted everything to go like it had gone with Shen Nuo just now, it was
fine as long as they knew in their hearts, but she did not expect Old
Madam Han to not be able to hold it in.
Moreover, she could not directly tell Old Madam Han that she had seen
through her act a long time ago as it would be too detrimental to Old
Madam Han’s enthusiastic personality.
So Lu Man could only say, “Do you remember the time when the Greedy
Wolf Operation was premiering?”
The Old Madam nodded eagerly.
“I saw Zhuoli enter the hall at that time, and although I was answering
the emcee’s question at that time, my gaze was always on Zhuoli,” Lu
Man explained.
Suddenly, the Old Madam felt elated, and was happy that as expected
Lu Man head over heels for her eldest grandson.
Earlier, she had found it strange in the past when Han Zhuoli even upon
being handsome, and having an excellent career and background career
was good, he couldn’t get a girlfriend! why was he always single!
Now that she saw Lu Man, she knew that her eldest grandson had high
standards!
Furthermore, as soon as he found a girlfriend, his girlfriend was

enamored of him!
After hearing Lu Man’s explanation, Old Madam Han’s heart was finally
at peace.
As expected, she then heard Lu Man say, “So when I saw him sit, I
naturally saw that you all were sitting next to him and your relationship
seemed really good. At that time, I guessed that it was probably
Grandpa and Grandma, Auntie and Uncle. Later on, when I asked him
about it, it was as expected.
The Old Madam could not help but glare at Han Zhuoli, it was all
because of him, he was his girlfriend’s pet!
His Lu Man was making him a scapegoat, and even if he cried, he would
have to deal with it.
“Man Man is very smart,” Han Zhuoli praised.
“Ah, Man Man!” The Old Madam called her very affably.
Lu Man could not help but remember the last time they met, back then
Old Madam only called her ‘Lu Man’.
“Ah! We are in the wrong for hiding it from you, don’t blame us!” The Old
Madam was in the wrong and felt more and more guilty towards Lu Man.
Lu Man was just a 22-year-old girl, but because of her experiences, she
was not used to acting like a young girl who acts cute with the elders and
get close to them.
If it were anyone else, they would probably be holding Old Madam’s arm
and acting cute.
But Lu Man was not used to doing that, and only smiled and said,
“Honestly, when I just found out, I was really very shocked. But after a
while, that shock went away.”
The Old Madam was very thankful that time heals everything, otherwise,
it would have been awkward for everyone today.
“At that time I wanted to… I wanted to go and meet you. I just found out
that you were dating Zhuoli, so I was curious! But I was also scared that
if you knew I was Zhuoli’s Grandma, you would be anxious, so I hid my
identity. Haha.” The Old Madam explained.
Chapter 419: Today He was the Ultimate Scapegoat

Lu Man nodded her agreement. “I understand.”
“Mom, let Lu Man take a seat first.” Shen Nuo reminded.
“Right, right,” The Old Madam finally remembered. “Come over and sit
quickly.”
She insistently refused to admit that she had forgotten and made Han
Zhuoli the scapegoat. “Really, how could you not let Lu Man sit?”
Han Zhuoli: “…”
Haha, today he was the ultimate scapegoat.
Lu Man did not expect Han Zhuoli’s interaction with his elders to be this
way.
The cold, aloof CEO was actually being treated by the Old Madam like
this.
Just when Lu Man sat down, the doorbell rang again.
It was Han Dongping’s family who had come.
Han Dongping had two sons, the elder son, Han Zhuoling was elder to
Han Zhouli by one year and was currently in America for business.
His younger son, Han Zhuofeng, was 20-years-old and was studying to
be a director at the National Drama Academy. Currently, he was in his
second year now, one year ahead of Lu Man.
Lu Man did not expect Han Zhuofeng to be attending the National Drama
Academy.
Old Madam Han was joyfully introducing Lu Man. “It’s very coincidental,
Lu Man also wants to study at the National Drama Academy, but she’s
going to study performing.”
“I know, my elder brother went to help her settle her transfer details!”
Han Zhuofeng pursed his lips and grunted.
Otherwise, did she think that University was like primary school or
middle school that you can take a transfer anytime you want?
If it were not for Han Zhuoli, it would even be hard for Lu Man to change
her course, much less to say being able to transfer to the National
Drama Academy which had such a low acceptance rate and that too,
without a test.
Han Zhuofeng was displeased with Lu Man, thinking that she was a
scheming woman!
Han Zhuofeng admired Han Zhuoli a lot, he admired him even more than
his own brother.
That’s why he felt that Lu Man could not match up to Han Zhuoli.
Han Zhuoli usually made deals that were in billions, and every decision
he made had a large impact.
But for Lu Man, he personally helped Lu Man transfer schools, which

was just a minor thing!
Han Zhuofeng felt that this was basically a waste of Han Zhuoli’s abilities
and also an embarrassment!
The CEO of the Han Corporation, the emperor of the entertainment

circle, the future head of the Han Family was personally helping Lu Man
transfer schools!
He really did not know trick Lu Man had played for Han Zhuoli to be so
infatuated with her!
Lu Man was definitely exploiting Han Zhuoli’s affection for her; he had
seen many such scheming women.
In his school, there were many girls who would do anything for
popularity.
Lu Man was able to gain success as soon as she entered the

entertainment circle; she definitely was extremely scheming!
Seeing how Lu Man could stand so proud in the entertainment circle and
not scared of anyone who dared to attack her, wasn’t this just because
she had Han Zhuoli as her backer?
Whatever she did, Han Zhuoli would help her, but what could she give
Han Zhuoli in return?
Before this, he did not like that Dai Yiran, and now, as for Lu Man, he
liked her even less!
Everyone could clearly see Han Zhuofeng’s reaction and that he had an
obvious disliking for Lu Man.
On the other hand, Han Dongping’s mood was good as he waited to

watch the drama unfold.
Look, his son’s thoughts were the same as his, looking at how the Old
Madam looked very satisfied with Lu Man, he felt that she must really
muddled because of her old age.
In the whole family, only his family was still clear-minded.
“Where’re your manners!” Unhappy, the Old Master grunted in a low

voice.
Han Zhuoli’s face went cold, and he suddenly stood up and told Han
Zhuofeng, “Come with me.”
Han Zhoufeng suddenly became alert, and under Han Zhuoli’s cold and
heavy gaze, he obediently stood up and walked off with Han Zhuoli.
In this whole Han Family, the person Han Zhuofeng feared the most was
Han Zhuoli. Anyway, for him, Han Zhuoli was scarier than Old Master
Han.
Displeased, Han Dongping scowled, “If you have anything to say, then
just say it here.”
He just could not stand the fact that in front of Han Zhuoli, his son’s
personality was like that of a quail and he would listen to every
command of Han Zhuoli.
Chapter 420: Lu Man Is My Face, My Life

At that moment, Han Zhuoli was furious while Han Zhuofeng was very
quiet.
Seeing Han Zhuoli get angry and reprimand his son right in front of him,
it was clear that Han Zhouli did not respect him at all!
However, Han Zhuoli’s expression did not change as he looked at Han

Dongping, and he walked away without saying anything.
Han Zhuofeng instantly followed behind Han Zhuoli, his head hung low
and sighing, not sparing even a glance at his Dad.
Furious with their disrespect, Han Dongping yelled, “Come back here!”
At that moment, Han Zhuofeng finally turned around and said in a

rushed tone, “I’ll come back soon.”
As soon as he finished saying that, he quickly rushed to follow Han

Zhouli.
Han Zhuoli brought Han Zhuofeng to the backyard and looked at him
with a dark face. “You’re already big, now you don’t respect me
anymore, right!”
“Older brother!” Frantic, Han Zhuofeng tried to placate Han Zhouli’s

anger. “Of course not! You know that I respect you the most.”
“Then you still dare to treat your sister-in-law with that attitude!”
“What sister-in-law! You two aren’t married right?” Han Zhuofeng was
anxious, muttering in a low voice, “Anyway, whether you can get married
or not in the future is not confirmed yet.”
Han Zhuoli shouted coldly, “Take back your words!”
His voice was so stern and loud that it really scared Han Zhuofeng.
Scared, Han Zhuofeng quickly tried to pacify Han Zhouli. “Older
brother… You… Don’t be angry…”
“You lacked manners and respect for Lu Man, and you still want me not
to be furious?” This was the first time Han Zhuoli had been so angry at
Han Zhuofeng. “Let me tell you, Lu Man is my face, my life. You being
disrespectful to her means that you are slapping my face. You made her
feel bad, that’s equal to wanting my life.”
“How is she any good! She’s not worthy of you!” Han Zhuofeng could not
hold back the anger in his heart.
“Don’t think of me as too good, me and Lu Man, there’s no such thing as

worthy or not, it’s just about liking,” Han Zhuoli scolded him, and took a
look at the 20-year-old boy standing in front of him, and took a deep
breath. “There’s no need for you to know how marvelous Lu Man is and
neither is there a need for you to understand her. Because even if you
really want to compete with her, you can’t compare to her, anyway.”
Seeing how Han Zhuofeng was still displeased, Han Zhouli explained,
“It’s not because she’s my girlfriend, but it’s because she’s stronger and
better than you.”
Still unhappy, Han Zhuofeng had a scowl on his face. “I saw how she
messed around online, she is too scheming and cunning. What’s good
about such a scheming girl!”
To his astonishment, as soon as Han Zhuofeng said that, he was pulled

up by his collar by Han Zhuoli who warned him in a low and fierce voice.
“Don’t you dare say anything bad about her! Han Zhuofeng, even if
you’re stubborn, there has to be a limit to it! I just like how she’s
scheming, and how she’ll cause trouble for people. Also, have her
schemes ever impacted you? Does she need your permission?”
“Anyway, I don’t need you to approve who I like,” Han Zhuoli said in a
low voice, “Han Zhuofeng, don’t you dare to say this kind of stuff again!
In my life, I will only have Lu Man, she’s my girlfriend now, and she’ll be
my wife in the future, and also your sister-in-law, this will never change!
If anyone wants to change that — ”
Han Zhuoli’s black eyes became sharp. “Then they are my enemy!”
Even though Han Zhouli knew Han Zhuofeng’s words were said in anger
and he wouldn’t act on it, he wanted to make his stance very clear.
Honestly, Han Zhoufeng wasn’t cursing them to break. His thoughts

were similar to an ordinary person’s; while still in the dating phase, no
one can be absolutely sure that they would marry their partner at the end
of the day.
Even if it wasn’t something that was said on purpose, Han Zhuoli did not
wish to hear it.
He was scared that people’s thoughts might turn into reality someday.
Because he loved her with all his heart, he was sensitive about this
matter, worried about losing her and hence refused to listen to anything
bad.
Stunned by Han Zhouli’s outburst, Han Zhuofeng held back for a while
before he said, “Why do you…”
His mouth opened and closed for a long time before he finally managed
to say with much difficulty, “You like her so much?”
Chapter 421: Who Can Bully Her

“Yes, I like her that much,” Han Zhuoli quickly changed his words. “No, I
love her.”
Han Zhuofeng’s unwillingness to admit defeat was clearly written on his

face.
No matter what, he still felt that Lu Man was unworthy of Han Zhuoli.
Or perhaps he should say that there is no woman alive who is worthy of

Han Zhuoli.
Seeing that there was no way he could convince him, Han Zhouli was
too lazy to waste more time talking to him. “I don’t care if you accept Lu
Man or not, she doesn’t need you to accept her, and nor doesn’t she
need to care about your opinion. However, there is one thing, what you
think should remain in your heart, I don’t care, even if you are just
pretending, you need to be polite to her! Just think about it this way, if
you’re not polite to her, it means you’re not being polite to me. Now, do
as you wish.”
As to Lu Man’s good parts, how could Han Zhuofeng, this kind of person
whose intelligence was lacking see it?
Han Zhouli was happy that there were so many dumb people in the
world.
Otherwise, if they were all smart, how many people would be fighting
with him for Lu Man!
Seeing Han Zhuoli’s stern gaze that was issuing him a warning, Han
Zhuofeng nodded his head quickly. “Alright, I know.”
“Let’s go,” Han Zhuoli turned to return to the house.
Han Zhuofeng followed behind him, and grunted unhappily, “But, I

definitely won’t smile at her!”
Han Zhuoli sneered, “Do you think that she cares about your smile?”
Han Zhuofeng disagreed, Lu Man wanted to marry to Han Zhuoli, so she

would have to curry favor with everyone in the Han family, and make
everyone in the Han family like her as she would want everyone to have
a good impression of her.
So obviously Lu Man would care about that.
Lu Man would definitely have to curry favor with him and she would also
have to rescue her image in his heart.
But who knew that Han Zhuofeng had totally anticipated it wrong.
When he returned to the living room, Lu Man did not even spare him a
glance.
She was smiling and talking to everyone, but when it came to Han
Zhuofeng, she just ignored him as if he was invisible.
Earlier, Han Zhuofeng looked down on her, but now, to his shock, Lu
Man was the one who looked down on him?
What right did she have!
Seeing his younger son suffer such treatment, Han Dongping gave a
cold hmph in his heart. Lu Man had no manners, and could not be
brought along to social or formal occasions, she didn’t even know to
interact with everyone.
However, the Old Madam and Shen Nuo felt otherwise, finding it quite
interesting.
Because Han Zhuofeng was the youngest child in the family, he had
been spoilt since young and was a bit of an arrogant, spoiled brat.
In the whole family, he only feared and listened to Han Zhuoli.
Surprisingly, today, he had to keep quiet in front of Lu Man.
The Old Madam only wanted to say one thing. “Serves you right! Don’t
you know that if you provoke Lu Man, you won’t have a good ending!”
She even advised Lu Man, “Lu Man, when you start going to the school,
if you have anything, just find Zhuofeng. He’s a bit of a bully, he might be
lacking in other talents, but he is such a bully that no one dares to
provoke him.”
“…” Reluctant to help Lu Man, Han Zhuofeng tried to protest. “Grandma,

I go there to study, why do you make it sound like I go collect ransom
from people.”
“It’s the same thing,” the Old Madam said nonchalantly.
Han Zhuofeng: “…”
It was no way the same thing, alright!
The Old Madam then instructed Han Zhuofeng. “Zhuofeng, take care of
Lu Man in school, don’t let others bully her.”
Han Zhuofeng pursed his lips unhappily. “Grandma, Lu Man is older than
me, and in her class, she’s the oldest. How can someone bully her? This
isn’t kindergarten. Anyway, didn’t you see Lu Man’s prowess in the
entertainment circle? Who can bully her!”
“Young brat, why are you so rude!” The Old Madam was so angry that
she wanted to hit him.
Han Zhuofeng saw Lu Man was sitting next to the Old Madam and saw
that she had no intention of stopping Old Madam Han from hitting him.
Chapter 422: She Saw him As A Weak Chicken
Although the Old Madam was obviously not going to hit him, Han
Zhuofeng could not help but get angry!
What a petty sister-in-law his older brother had found!
Seeing Han Zhuofeng’s angry look, Lu Man stifled a laugh and stop Old
Madam Han. “Grandma, don’t worry, if there’s anyone bullying me, I’ll
definitely find Zhuoli as soon as possible. If Zhuoli is not there, I’ll go and
find Mo Jingcheng or others.”
As for Han Zhuofeng?
Haha, he can queue up!
When Han Zhuofeng heard it, he got even more enraged, so she didn’t
even consider him as an option!
“It’s me who — ” Han Zhuofeng wanted to say that even if she came to
find him, he would not help her.
In the end, as soon as he said those two words, Han Zhuoli’s shot out a
cold warning look at him.
Han Zhuofeng instantly stopped talking and shortened his neck like a
quail.
“However, if Zhuofeng is bullied by people, he can also come to find

me,” Lu Man said, smiling.
She was treating him like a weak chicken!
Han Zhoufeng instantly looked towards Han Zhuoli, wanting to complain

to him, Older Brother, look at Lu Man, how can she bully people like
that!
But who knew that as soon as he looked over, he would become
indignant, wanting to kick the chair.
Han Zhuoli was beaming with pride, and looking at Lu Man with a soft,
loving gaze as if at this moment, Lu Man was the only person in his eyes
and his whole world.
His Man Man was even excellent at bullying people.
“You’re not her opponent,” Han Zhuoli said proudly at Han Zhuofeng.
Han Zhuofeng was so angry he clutched at his chest.
Why was it that when Lu Man bullied people, she was praised?
***
After having lunch at the old family house, Han Zhuoli was about to drop
Lu Man back home in the afternoon.
“Older Brother, wait for me, I’ll come with you guys,” Han Zhuofeng
followed them out.
Han Zhuoli said, impolitely, “Eldest Uncle and Eldest Auntie are still
there, why are you leaving with us?”
“I’m not going home, I want to go to the studio, can you just drop me off
on the way?” Han Zhuofeng asked.
This was the part where Han Zhuofeng was better off than others, when
other people overcoming all kinds of problems to finish filming, Han
Zhuofeng had already bought a film studio to be his work office, and
when he had nothing to do, he would film some things as practice.
Han Zhuoli would also invest to let him film some low-budget web
dramas.
Han Zhoufeng never advertised for it or found celebrities, he just found
students in the school; he was just practicing his skills.
“Where’s your car?” Han Zhuoli asked.
“Hehe, I didn’t drive over, I came in Dad’s car,” Han Zhuofeng explained
with a goofy smile on his face.
However, it would be strange if Han Zhuoli and Lu Man indeed believed

him.
“Get in the car,” Han Zhuoli said.
“Alright!” Han Zhuofeng answered happily and rushed to claim the

shotgun seat.
“Go to the back!” However, when Han Zhuofeng’s hand just touched the
handle, Han Zhuofeng said coldly.
Left with no choice, Han Zhuofeng could only sit behind, and leave the
shotgun seat for Lu Man.
Lu Man cursed in her heart, she had heard of younger sisters being over
possessive of their brothers but this was a rare sight; Han Zhuofeng had
an older brother complex as a younger brother.
The whole ride, Han Zhuofeng purposely ignored Lu Man and only
talked to Han Zhuoli.
Han Zhuoli decided to drop him off at the studio first, and when the car
was stopped below the studio, Han Zhuofeng was very unhappy. “Older
Brother, why didn’t you send Lu Man back first?”
Lu Man laughed in her heart, this was the first time she heard Han
Zhuofeng take her name and even then it was out of jealousy.
“Of course, it’s because I’m his girlfriend,” Lu Man said nonchalantly.
With a girlfriend, what was a younger brother, he would obviously be the
third wheel!
Chapter 423: As per old sayings, the Oldest Sister-In-

Law Is Like A Mother
Yet Han Zhuoli was still smiling dotingly, not feeling like Lu Man was
bullying Han Zhuofeng at all.
Han Zhuofeng lost his cool. “If I have a girlfriend, I would definitely send
her home first.”
“Oh,” Han Zhuoli asked stiffly, “Then do you have a girlfriend?”
How hurtful!
“That’s true, when you have a girlfriend, you would be driving your car to
send your girlfriend home, there would be no need for you to ride in my
car,” and follow beside him and Lu Man like a third wheel.
Hmph!
He really did not know what medicine Lu Man had fed Han Zhuoli for him
to be so infatuated with her and treated her better than his younger
brother.
Green with envy, Han Zhuofeng hastily opened the door and got down
the car. “Then I’ll go now.”
“I won’t send you off,” Han Zhuoli said.

Lu Man felt that Han Zhuofeng’s heart had been hit too many times
today, so her tone was a lot better than that of Han Zhuoli. “See you.”
“There’s no need, I don’t feel like we’ll have many opportunities to meet
again.” Han Zhoufeng voiced his thoughts, who knew how long Han
Zhuoli would be dating Lu Man.
Lu Man wanted to be in the entertainment circle, and it was too dirty and
messy. It would be her first time entering such a glitzy, glamorous place,
she might be swept away.
At that time, if she lost herself, then could she still continue with Han
Zhuoli?
Of course not!
However, as soon as he said that, he saw Lu Man smiling at him.
In Han Zhuofeng’s eyes, Lu Man’s smile was especially strange.
She smiled till he got goosebumps and kept feeling like something was
not right.
Just then he heard Lu Man say, “You forgot that I’m also going to the
National Drama Academy? At that time, I’ll definitely meet you again.”
“We’re leaving,” Han Zhuoli said, then started the car and drove away
swiftly.
Instantly, Han Zhuofeng was overcome by the feeling of being

abandoned.
***
In the car, Han Zhuoli told Lu Man, “Don’t lower yourself to his standard,
he has a childish temper, spoiled by my eldest uncle till he’s very
stubborn.”
“I can tell.” Lu Man smiled lightly, not taking to heart Han Zhuofeng’s
attitude.
Han Zhuoli looked at Lu Man, actually, she was also only older than Han
Zhuofeng by two years.
Han Zhuofeng’s life had been smooth-sailing ever since he was born,
there was Han Zhouli to shoulder the responsibilities as the family head
and his own brother, Han Zhuoling, who would take over Han
Dongping’s company.
Hence, Han Zhuofeng was free to do what he liked and thus he joined
the National Drama Academy and chose to become a director.
All his life, he faced no trouble and as he was the youngest among them,
he was spoiled and pampered by everyone.
Even though he was only two years younger than Lu Man, in front of the
calm, wise and big-hearted Lu Man, he was like an insensible, stubborn
child.
Han Zhuoli’s heart ached for Lu Man, because of her tough past, she
had to grow up so soon and shoulder all the responsibilities unlike the
people her age.
Han Zhuoli’s right hand left the steering wheel, and he reached out to
hold Lu Man’s hand. He held her hand and placed it onto his thigh.
Her palm was soft and warm, and through his pants, he could feel the
softness and warmth emanating from her palm.
Han Zhuoli pressed it and said, “You don’t need to be polite with that
brat. If he’s rude to you, you can bully him to your heart’s content. He’s
insensible, you can educate him, there’s no need to care about what he
thinks. You’re his elder, it’s only right for you to teach him a lesson.”
Lu Man: “…”
How did she become his elder?
Han Zhuoli took a look at her, and explained with a cheesy smile on his
face, “You’re his elder sister-in-law, so aren’t you his elder? As per old
sayings, the oldest sister-in-law is like a mother.”
Lu Man: “…”
Hahaha, this explanation was so cheesy.
***
In the blink of an eye, the New Year break got over.
The universities started school a bit late after the Winter holidays, so Lu
Man went back to work first.
Chapter 424: There Is No If

Han Zhuoli had even said that she would not need to resign and she
could keep her position at Han Corporation while she was away studying
at school. Even if she wanted to film and did not have time to work, they
could give her a position as a special consultant for the Public Relations
Department.
At that time, they definitely would not keep her on the payroll but if she
was willing to take up any case, they would pay her according to the
assignments she would take up.
It was even what Lu Man had strongly requested of Han Zhuoli,

otherwise, based on Han Zhuoli, he wanted to leave a position for Lu
Man, and she would get paid every month even without taking up any
cases.
As the lady boss of the Han Corporation, why couldn’t Lu Man have
some special treatment?
Han Corporation was Han Zhuoli’s, and Han Zhuoli was Lu Man’s, so
Han Corporation also belonged to Lu Man’s, there was nothing wrong
with that.
But Lu Man did not want that, if the others in the company got to know,
they would feel indignant and even if they did not dare to say it out loud,
they would definitely talk about it in private.
Lu Man did not want Han Zhuoli to be judged by people like that, after
all, he was the CEO of Han Corporation and he needed to be impartial
and look after his employees.
When she was studying, she could occasionally take up a case to earn
additional money and that was enough for her.
After working for around half a month, it was almost time for school to
start.
When Sister Li and others saw Lu Man clearing up her things on the
table, they knew that she was probably not going to come back to work
in the future, and they felt a bit sad about parting with her.
“I’ll still come back to take a look once in a while,” Lu Man smiled and
said, “If there are no other plans during my holidays, I’ll be thick-skinned
and come back to work, at that time, don’t despise me.”
“We definitely won’t despise you!” Sister Li and the rest hurriedly
assured her.
Brother Zhang smiled and said, “Originally we wanted to have a farewell

party for you, but we felt that that was not good. After all, you haven’t
quit yet, and you will come back eventually. We’ll just treat you as a
member of the Public Relations Department, and you would still come
back to work.”
Sister’s Li was upset about Lu Man’s departure and her face clearly
showed it. She even jokingly scolded Brother Zhang, “Look at what
you’re saying! Lu Man would be able to come back only if she doesn’t
become a celebrity. Of course, we want her to be popular and have no
time to come back!”
“Right right right,” Brother Zhang hurriedly admitted his mistake, “I said
the wrong thing, I said the wrong thing.”
“I have signed a contract with the Han Corporation,” Lu Man tried to

lighten the atmosphere, “I will be just like other celebrities under Han
Corporation. If I have anything I will come to the Han Corporation, even if
it’s not concerning public relations, I’ll still come back.”
Chen Shimian chirped, “Is your manager the CEO?”
Everybody: “…”
It sounded very logical.
“…” Lu Man was also stunned, “I don’t know, no one has told me who’s
my manager. But I’m about to start attending school, and I don’t have
any activities planned, so I probably won’t need a manager.”
Before this, Lu Man had yet to consider this problem in detail, but now
hearing Chen Shimian mention it, she thought about it, could it be that
Han Zhuoli really wanted to be her manager?
This was way too much!
Who would dare to discuss things with Han Zhuoli!
Furthermore, he was so busy, how could he have time to take up a part-

time job as her manager.
Even if Han Zhuoli really wanted to do it, she would reject it right away.
After packing up her things, Sister Li and the rest walked Lu Man to the
entrance of the company.
Wu Lize finally opened his mouth and said his first sentence, “If there’s
anything you need help with, then come back and tell me… tell us. We
are a professional team, after all, we have more strength in numbers.”
“Alright,” Lu Man smiled and nodded.
Seeing Lu Man leave, Wu Lize could not help but think, if that day at the
hospital, his mother had not said that, would it have been different for
him and Lu Man?
It was just, there was no if.
***
After taking a day off and resting at home, Lu Man got ready to go to
school.
Chapter 425: You’re Going To Let Her Bully Me Like

That?
What Han Zhuoli had helped her register for day school, Lu Man thought
that it was quite good already.
There were not a lot of lessons, and although it would take quite some
time traveling, she could go spend time with Xia Qingwei every day.
And at her age, she really did not know how to interact with the girls from
her class who were 18 or 19-years-old, there would probably a gap in
understanding due to their age difference.
Thinking about how she was 22-years-old now, and her classmates were
18 to 19-years-old, she did feel quite a bit of stress.
On the other hand, Han Zhuoli’s thinking was even more simple.
If Lu Man stayed in the hostel, it would be so hard to meet Lu Man.
Lu Man was very thankful that she started school from the second
semester of the first year, that way, she would escape the military
training session; she really did not really like military training.
During her day off, she followed Han Zhuoli to buy some things she
needed for school.
Lu Man had lost touch with school life for close to three years, and she
was anticipating as well as nervous about going back to school.
Having lost touch with school life, Lu Man was a bit confused about what
to buy for school.
Even Han Zhuoli was clueless about it, so he directly called Han
Zhoufeng.
And he decided to have Han Zhuofeng buy school stationery and

necessities.
Han Zhuofeng’s face was black as he came out. Back then, he had said
that he would not see her again, but very soon, they were meeting again.
Who knew that as soon as they met, Lu Man would still greet him with a
smile. “Hello, we meet again.”
Han Zhoufeng suddenly felt that Lu Man was really was at par with Han
Zhuoli in terms of enraging people.
Han Zhuoli smiled as held Lu Man’s hand, his Man Man had such high
attack power, leaving Han Zhuofeng at a loss for words as soon as they
met.
Han Zhuofeng harrumphed, “If it wasn’t my older brother calling me out, I

wouldn’t have come.”
“En.” Lu Man nodded, not paying him any heed. “Anyway, your older
brother did it for me.”
This woman was so unfriendly!
Feeling wronged, he wanted to complain and looked at Han Zhuoli.

“Older Brother, are you going to let her bully me like that?”
“She’s your elder, this is not called bullying, you have to be filial,” Han
Zhuoli said with a straight face.
“…” Han Zhuofeng was really going crazy. “How is she, my elder!”
Lu Man maintained a smile but her heart was not calm. “Don’t ask, it’s
for your own good.”
As expected, she heard Han Zhuoli say, “The oldest sister-in-law is like a
mother.”
He wanted to go home now, was it still in time?
In the end, Han Zhuofeng, under the pressure of Han Zhuoli, brought Lu
Man to the stores where she could buy the necessities and stationery for
school.
But since she was a day student, she didn’t need to buy a lot of things.
After shopping, Han Zhuoli brought Lu Man back to school and shooed
Han Zhuofeng away. “Alright, you can go play by yourself.”
“…” Han Zhuofeng finally felt the troubling feeling of being kicked to the
curb after he had outlived his usefulness. “On the last day of my holiday,
you called me out, and ruined it for me, now that you finished using me,
you are kicking me away?”
When Lu Man heard his words, she wondered, why was behaving like a
spurned lover?
This child really had a serious brother’s complex.
“You can dream on!” Han Zhuofeng opened the car door and sat in the
back seat. This time, he did not forget that he could not steal Lu Man’s
shotgun seat. “Don’t forget that I’m also studying at the Drama Academy,
what’s wrong with me going back to school to take a look? Anyway, I
want to go with you two.”
Han Zhuoli looked at Han Zhuofeng like he was looking at a dumb

person before getting in the car with Lu Man, and driving to the National
Drama Academy.
The school did not allow cars inside, and Han Zhuoli did not want to use
some special privileges here, so he stopped the car at the entrance of
the school.
As the school was starting tomorrow, many students came back to

school early, and the campus was bustling with students.
Chapter 426: Who Is This Woman Being Rude To!

Seeing Han Zhuofeng, everyone looked over.
Han Zhuofeng was the most popular person in their school; it was
publicly acknowledged that he was the best looking in the Drama
Academy and his family background was mysterious.
No one knew what family background Han Zhuofeng had, but they knew
that his family was definitely very rich.
Han Zhuofeng had never purposely shown off or boasted in front of

others. From a young age, he was brought up like a prince, and so his
actions unknowingly reflected his noble upbringing.
Thus, Han Zhuofeng was very popular in the school, and a lot of girls
were chasing him. However, it was just that he liked no one in particular.
At this moment, the students saw Han Zhuoli standing next to Han
Zhuofeng. Han Zhouli’s aura was even better, stronger and charismatic.
When Han Zhuofeng was compared to Han Zhuoli, he clearly lacked the
powerful aura he normally had and became an ordinary person.
Quite a few people found Han Zhuoli to be familiar, but since they had
just seen him in the press, they couldn’t identify him when they saw him
in person.
It was just that Han Zhuoli was really too outstanding, and as soon as he
entered the school, everyone’s attention was only on him.
The students could not help but be curious, who was the person walking
beside Han Zhuofeng, a high-profile person, and even attracting their
attention. He ought to be someone high profile too.
But before they could get a clear view and identify him, the three of them
had already disappeared into the office building.
They first went to the office for the performing department as Lu Man
needed to report to the school, and collect the textbooks.
“Teacher Li, hello, I’m Lu Man, I came to report.”
“I know you,” Teacher Li did not have a good expression, and took out a
form and gave it to her. “Fill it up, then go to our instructor to collect the
books.”
Han Zhuoli frowned, who is this woman being so rude!
Lu Man did not know what problem Teacher Li had, already having
problems with her before even getting to know her well.
She shook her head at Han Zhuoli, trying to pacify his anger. She took
up the pen and was about to fill the form when she heard Teacher Li
speak, “I don’t care what relation you used to transfer here, but since
you’re already in this school, then study well, and be a good student,
don’t bring stir up trouble or dirty the school’s name.”
The principal had already informed the head of the department that there
would be a transfer student into the performing arts major and that the
student was Lu Man who had starred in Greedy Wolf Operation . At that
time, Han Zhuoli had not told the principal about his relation with Lu Man
at all, and the principal did not dare to guess, nor did he ask Han Zhuoli.
And thus, he did not bother telling his subordinates about it.
The head of the department was displeased with Lu Man transferring in

without any achievements or scholarship.
Other people had to work hard to secure admission in the Drama

Academy, they needed to have good humanities grades and pass the
test for the course they wanted.
But just because Lu Man participated in the Greedy Wolf Operation ,

and had used her connections, she did not need to go through the test,
and directly transferred in.
Such a special treatment was disapproved by the head of the

department.
The entertainment circle was messy, and as an outsider, Lu Man

suddenly participated in the Greedy Wolf Operation , and claimed that
she did not have any backer. The head of the department found it hard
to believe.
Who knows what dirty dealings she had done to be able to get into the
Drama Academy.
“Don’t think that just because you starred in Greedy Wolf Operation ,
you are better than people in school, don’t bring those messy things from
the entertainment circle into the school!” Teacher Li said, not trying to be
courteous or polite at all.
These days, all the budding starlets who became famous were young,
attractive and good looking and they all chose to join the National Film
Academy.
On the other hand, the National Drama Academy was much more low-
key, and rarely had any young people who became famous while they
were still young.
Lu Man signed her name, and at the last stroke, she suddenly used a bit
of force force on the tip of the pen and stopped for a while before she put
the pen down.
Chapter 427: Is Our Principal Someone You Can Call

Over So Easily?
“Teacher Li.” Lu Man straightened up. “Why are you dissatisfied with
me?”
“What kind of attitude is this!” Teacher Li glared at Lu Man, “Who are you
directing your bad temper at!”
Furious, Han Zhuoli let out an angry laugh, Teacher Li’s words had so
many hidden meanings, and now he was blaming Lu Man for having a
bad attitude?
“Call your principal here,” Han Zhuoli said in a low voice.
“Who are you to call the principal? I’m disciplining my student, strangers
shouldn’t interfere!” Teacher Li lashed out at Han Zhouli.
Already enraged enough, Han Zhuoli snickered, “You’re mocking my

girlfriend indiscriminately in front of me, and you’re refusing to let me say
anything?”
“I asked you to call the principal over, are you going to call him or not?”
Han Zhuoli asked one more time in a serious tone.
“Is our principal someone you can call over so easily? Ignorant!” Teacher
Li frowned.
Han Zhuoli took out his phone and called Zheng Tianming in front of
Teacher Li. “Find the phone number of the principal of the National
Drama Academy. Tell him I’m at the office, and get him to come over as
soon as possible.”
Anxious and dubious, Teacher Li stiffened a little, but when he heard

what Han Zhuoli said, he sneered disdainfully.
He was so pretentious!
He even ordered the principal to come over as soon as possible.
Teacher Li could not be blamed for not knowing who Han Zhuoli was,
how would he be able to interact with him?
Although Han Corporation invested a lot in Drama Academy every year,

Han Zhuoli had never made an appearance.
Even when the buildings were named after the Han Family, Han Zhuoli
never came to cut the ribbon at the opening ceremony.
Lu Man said coldly, “Teacher Li, why don’t you say what’s really on your
mind, don’t keep muttering to yourself and don’t think that I don’t get the
malice in your words.”
“What did I say? I was just telling you about your duty as a student from
the start to the end. I’m your teacher, is there something wrong with me
educating you? How Come good advice turned into malice, why is it that
you don’t want to listen? Or is it that you feel like you feel that what I said
has indeed some relations with you and you can’t let people know?”
Teacher Li hit the desk suddenly.
Lu Man laughed coldly, “If you dare to say it straight, I’ll even respect
you a bit. I chose the Drama Academy because this place teaches
people how to act, and the people who graduate from here are highly
skilled, talented actors. But to my surprise, the teachers here don’t care
about the truth and can not differentiate right from wrong, coming to a
conclusion about students even before they get to know the student, and
they judge students in the most disgusting way, it really shocked me.”
“What did I hide? What is it that I did not say?” Teacher Li was so
embarrassed and frustrated that he lost his cool. “What I said was very
ordinary, you’re using your guilt to twist my meaning!”
Lu Man laughed coldly, “I’ll give you a sentence, if you have Buddha in
your heart, you see people as Buddha; if you have sh*t in your heart,
you see people as sh*t. You’re dirty in your own heart, your thinking is
dirty, don’t disgust me with your thoughts!”
Han Zhuofeng was having an eye-opener at the side.
Even if she had Han Zhuoli backing her, he had never seen anyone
confront a teacher in the school.
Before this, Lu Man had been really very polite and courteous with him.
“Leave now!” Furious, Teacher Li got anxious and pointed a finger at Lu

Man’s nose. “My school can’t afford to have such a vile, undisciplined
student! I don’t care what connections you used to transfer into the
school, leave now!”
Who knew that as soon as he stretched his finger up, it was grabbed by
Han Zhuoli, and bent upwards, Teacher Li yelled out.
“Who are you pointing at!” Han Zhuoli said angrily.
The other teachers in the office had been silent spectators but when they
saw the argument turned violent, they all came up to try to stop them.
“If there’s anything you want to say, just say it, there’s no need to resort
to violence!”
“Stay calm, stay calm, don’t be too impulsive!”

Chapter 428: Unable To Accomplish Anything, But
Able To Ruin Everything
“Teacher Li is a bit hot-tempered, just let go first.”
Some people instead of dousing the fire, added fuel to the fire. “You are
all too much! Why are you making trouble! Teacher Li is instructing his
student, how can you be so violent? Is it that if teachers try to educate
students and their words are not nice to hear, they have to be beaten
up?”
“What are you all doing!” When Principal Zhang strode in he saw the
chaos in the faculty room.
And when he saw Han Zhuoli standing in the middle, he started to

tremble with fear.
“Everyone stop!” Principal Zhang yelled angrily.
All the teachers immediately stopped what they were doing.
Even Han Zhuoli let go of Teacher Li’s hand, and then took out a
handkerchief, cleaning his hand in disgust.
Teacher Li was tending to his index finger and kept moaning in pain.
However, when he saw Han Zhuoli’s actions, blood rushed to his head.
He was about to point an accusing finger at Han Zhuoli, when the

thought of how his right finger was almost broken came to his mind and
he hurriedly put his hand down.
“Principal!” Teacher Li climbed up from the ground and said, “Such a

vile, arrogant student can’t be accepted by our school! She’s too much!”
Principal Zhang shot daggers at Teacher Li; not only could Teacher Li
achieve anything good, but he was also excellent in running everything!
Principal Zhang ignored Teacher Li completely and did not even think
about his fierce image of a principal as he tried to placate Han Zhuoli.
“Young Master Han.” Anxious, Principal Zhang asked, “You came over
personally, why didn’t you tell me?”
“I brought my girlfriend to report and collect the textbooks,” Han Zhuoli

said coldly with as face as black as the bottom of a pot. “I originally
thought that it was a small matter and we would leave after settling it.
But who knew that I would be met with such people, it’s really an eye-
opener for me. If I hadn’t come over today and my girlfriend were to be
alone, how aggrieved would she be?”
“What’s going on!” Principal Zhang glared at Teacher Li angrily and

asked him.
Teacher Li trembled, no matter what, he did not dare to admit it. In front
of Principal Zhang, he could no more show his fangs. “Principal, there’s
a misunderstanding here. They are spouting nonsense, don’t listen to
them! When Lu Man came to report, I just… I just asked a few things of
her as a teacher like to study well and work hard. Who knew that they
would make a mountain out of a molehill.”
Principal Zhang directed his stern, sharp gaze at the other teachers.
“What were Teacher Li’s exact words?”
Some people lowered their heads, and no one dared to say anything.
Although Teacher Li did not say it out loud, the meaning between the
lines was especially mocking, even an idi*t could understand it.
Suddenly someone from the same department as Teacher Li came

forward and grumbled, “Principal, what Teacher Li said was right. For the
sake of the student, he said some few things to have her study hard in
school, how did it turn into Teacher Li mocking her? She really has too
much of a glass heart. Is it that now as a teacher, we can’t even
discipline our students?”
Lu Man recognized the person to be the same one who was adding fuel
to the arguments just now while others were trying to stop the fight.
“As a teacher, you are disciplining me and maligning my image as a

student only because I have starred in a famous director’s movie? How
can you tell me to be low-key and not to bring those dirty scandalous
things from the entertainment circle into the school without even getting
to know me?” Lu Man said coldly, “The entertainment circle is a bad
mess, but what does that have to do with me? Teacher Li, what are you
insinuating? As for those dirty things, they exist everywhere, even in the
corporate world too!”
“I just entered the office and said my name, nothing else, but you had an
expression of which said that I should bow down to you and listen to you
obediently even when you are wrong?
Chapter 429: Regret Choosing This Place

Han Zhuoli directly confronted the principal. “He humiliated my

girlfriend.”
Originally, Lu Man going back to school was a joyful occasion.
Although Lu Man did not say it, he knew that Lu Man was excited.
But who knew that something that their excitement would be spoiled like
this.
Not only it aggrieved Lu Man, but it would also leave behind bad
memories of her first day at school.
Han Zhuoli’s heart ached for her. “This is the place my girlfriend chose
over National Film Academy. But now, I really regret choosing this
place!”
When Principal Zhang heard that, how could he not know who was lying
and who was speaking the truth?
Usually, Teacher Li liked to act big, and show his authority over ordinary
staff and students.
But there were a lot of things that he did not understand well and he
would form his own opinions without caring about the reality and
randomly accuse people.
However, ordinary teachers and students did not dare to offend him and
took his bullying lying down.
Principal Zhang knew about this all along, but a department head could
not be dismissed without any solid proof. Thus, he could only try to
reprimand Teacher Li from time to time.
But Teacher Li became more and more fearless, acting even bossier.
Just last month, a student had applied for a work-study program, and his
family had saved up money and bought him a button-up shirt worth 200
yuan for his birthday. However, Teacher Li refused his request stating
that if he had the money to wear a shirt worth 200 yuan, then he did not
need to occupy the slot of the work-study program and removed his
name from the list.
Agonized, the student’s family complained Principal Zhang, and the

student burst into tears feeling indignant.
Therefore, Principal Zhang could only go to find Teacher Li personally

and help the student get his name back on the list.
Displeased with Principal Zhang reprimanding him, Teacher Li did not

easily concede in, making Principal Zhang negotiate with him for a long
time before agreeing.
But from then on, that student was blacklisted by Teacher Li, and
Teacher Li often made trouble for him.
Then there was another student who got a role in a show during one of
the holidays in her second year.
It was neither a big production nor well known among the public. She
had a small role but she had a decent amount of screen time.
Naturally, the student did not want to give up on this chance and made
use of the holiday break to film it.
After school reopened, it reached Teacher Li’s ear and he instantly

expelled the student, accusing her of going against the school rules and
privately went to film a television drama in her Second Year.
Thankfully, the student’s family had some power, and had some
connections, and only then did Teacher Li stop, but he still remembered
what the girl did.
There were a lot of things that Teacher Li did, to make his presence
known in school and show off his power.
“Teacher Li!” Principal Zhang said angrily, “Before this, there were a lot
of such cases, yet I didn’t shell out harsh punishment to you because I
felt that as the department head I needed to give you face, So every time
I just reprimanded you and didn’t take any strict against you. However,
you became more and more bold, acting on your whim!”
“Principal Zhang, you’re listening to their lies and scolding me?”

Enraged, blood rushed to Teacher Li’s face.
“It’s not them, you are the one spouting lies!” Principal Zhang said in a
low, grave tone, “Teacher Li, as for your past deeds, I remember them
all. Furthermore, do you really feel that Young Master Han needs to
slander you? What will he gain from slandering you? No, I should say,
do you even deserve getting slandered by him?”
In Han Zhuoli’s eyes, Teacher Li was a small character not even worth
his time, and after this one meeting, Han Zhouli would probably forget
even his appearance.
He would not even leave a trace in Han Zhuoli’s memory.
Chapter 430: Stop All The Investments

Haha! Han Zhuoli slandering him? He was already giving him face.
Fraudulent, dirty acts were common in the market, yet each schemer
had his own standard, right?
Teacher Li didn’t deserve getting slandered by Han Zhouli at all.
He was already been given face as Han Zhuoli could not bother to
slander him.
“Young Master Han?” Hearing Principal Zhang address Han Zhouli as

‘young master’, Teacher Li frowned, and sneered coldly, “Where did this
rich second-generation heir come from? Principal, you’re sucking up too
much, it’s really embarrassing for the school!”
Furious, Principal Zhang shot daggers at Teacher Li, this person was
really getting more and more out of hand!
“Rich second-generation heir? Rich second-generation heir?” Principal

Zhang was really so frustrated with Teacher Li that he lost his cool. “He’s
the biggest sponsor of our school. It’s CEO Han who invested to build
the school library, the laboratories, the theater!”
By the time President Zhang finished saying that, Teacher Li already

knew who Han Zhuoli was.
At that time, when the theater was being built, it could be said that it
shocked the whole country.
There was not a single institution with its own theater.
Just because of that theatre, National Drama Academy gained an upper

hand over Film Academy!
National Drama Academy and National Film Academy were always
competing against each other, trying to pull the other down and refusing
to give in to each other.
The National Film Academy looked down on how the Drama Academy
had few stars emerging from their school, while the National Drama
Academy looked down on how the Film Academy’s stars lacked acting
skills.
The year the theater was constructed, many students chose National
Drama Academy over National Film Academy.
Although both of them never lacked students who came to seek

admission and didn’t it feel good looking at the crowd of students who
came to apply?
Principal Zhang felt that it was not enough and praised, “Our school has
reserved slots for students to be recruited into production teams and
films, and it’s because of CEO Han! No matter whether it is a small or
big production, Han Corporation never forgets to recruit students from
our school. The reason why people say that the National Drama
Academy’s students don’t have to worry about being unemployed is
because of Han Corporation!”
“Now you’re saying that CEO Han is slandering you, a mere teacher?
You even had the guts to call him a rich second-generation heir? Find
me a rich second-generation heir like him!” Principal Zhang was lashed
out at Teacher Li.
“All along, you never cared to find out the truth, how many people have
you wrongly accused because of your prejudice and imagination? Yet
you still have the face to yell at me and accuse me of embarrassing the
school?”
Principal Zhang’s words made the other teachers let out a sigh of relief.
Besides the teachers on Teacher Li’s team, every one of them had been
bullied or ostracized by Teacher Li before.
Usually, no matter how aggrieved they feel, they could only insult him
behind his back and do nothing against him
They had really hoped for someone to teach Teacher Li a lesson

someday.
Han Zhuoli’s face was still black, he did not feel that this was enough.
He took out his phone and called Zheng Tianming. “How’s the plan to
invest in building a film and television set for the National Drama
Academy going?”
Suddenly, there was a pin-drop silence in the room.
Teacher Li looked at Han Zhuoli in shock.
On the other hand, Principal Zhang was anxious and worried.
This was something their school had tried hard to have the Han
Corporation invest in. After sending several proposals, Han Corporation
had finally agreed, and now they were in the planning, cost estimation
phase of the project.
“The estimates have already come out, and we’re now preparing a
detailed proposal,” Zheng Tianming replied.
Han Zhuoli instructed coldly, “There’s no need to prepare an agreement,

we are putting a stop to the whole plan.”
Zheng Tianming was stunned for a while, but instantly regained his
composure and said, “Alright.”
“The rest of the investment plans for National Drama Academy should
be stopped too, and as for the yearly recruitment for production team
and films, it can be canceled altogether,” Han Zhuoli said.
Chapter 431: Quickly Apologize to Lu Man!

When Zheng Tianming heard, even he broke out into a cold sweat.
“Yes.”
Han Zhuoli felt that it was too troublesome to list out every single thing,
so he said, “That means from now on, all the investments and
sponsorship provided by Han Corporation to the National Drama
Academy should be canceled.”
“Cancel them all?” Zheng Tianming finally could not help but ask,
“Everything? Are we not going to invest in the National Drama Academy
anymore?”
“Yes, do you need me to repeat it again?” Han Zhuoli sneered.
“No, there’s no need. I know now,” Zheng Tianming instantly said,

scared out unleashing Han Zhouli’s fury on himself.
However, he was still pondering, isn’t Lu Man going to the National

Drama Academy to study?
Every since Lu Man chose to attend National Drama Academy, Han

Corporation increased its investment in National Drama Academy, and
even Han Zhuoli started to invest in the Drama Academy under his own
name.
However, Han Zhuoli wanted to cancel all of this out of the blue.
Zheng Tianming could not help but wonder if someone had bullied Lu
Man at school.
“Young… Young Master Han…” Principal Zhang was stunned, he knew

that Han Zhuoli was furious, but he did not think that he would actually
take back all his investments!
Without Han Corporation, their biggest sponsor, the school’s would face
a dire financial crisis and there would be no way they could compete with
National Film Academy!
Although they had other investors, in these past few years, they were
mostly relying on Han Corporation!
Teacher Li’s could no longer be arrogant as earlier, and he was scared,

anxious and feeling remorse.
If all the investments were canceled, it would not be an exaggeration to

say that he was the school’s criminal already!
His lips were trembling, and he no longer could maintain his bold,
haughty attitude.
Han Zhuoli hung up the phone, and coldly said, “In the future, there will
be no plans for the film and television set, if you want to build it, find
someone else, I want to see which company has the resources and the
guts to help you build it.”
Hearing that, Principal Zhang almost fainted.
Han Zhuoli was too domineering, he not only had Han Corporation take
back their investment but also threatened them to dare find any other
investor and see how Han Corporation deals with it!
As long as the Han Corporation did not go bankrupt, and kept its position
as the king of the entertainment industry. and also as one of the
prestigious eight families, there was no way their school would be able to
build a film and television set!
But would the Han Corporation go bankrupt?
Of course not!
Principal Zhang felt that perhaps he should be grateful that even though
Han Zhuoli took back all of the Han Corporation’s investment, he at least
he did not stop people from investing?
“Apologize! Quickly apologize to Lu Man!” Principal Zhang shot daggers

at Teacher Li, wanting to kill him in real life.
This incompetent thing!
He really regretted not nipping it at the bud, not taking strict action
against Teacher Li when Teacher Li did such horrible things in the past
too.
Teacher Li’s cold sweat started to drip down, he had guessed at least
one thing correctly, that Lu Man came in through relations.
But he had not thought that Lu Man’s relation would be with Han Zhuoli.
Not only that, Lu Man did not have any shady, dirty exchange with Han
Zhuoli.
Lu Man was Han Zhuoli’s girlfriend!
He could imagine, if Lu Man was in their school, Han Zhuoli would

definitely increase his investment in their school.
Teacher Li couldn’t care less about his reputation or pride anymore and
hurriedly apologized to Lu Man. “Lu Man, I’m sorry, I am in the wrong. I
should not have made assumptions and judged without getting to know
the truth. Please accept my apology and forgive me.”
As for the rest, they did not dare to open their mouths. Facing Han
Zhuoli, who would dare to say anything?
However, Lu Man did not acknowledge him and Han Zhuoli seemed to
know what was going on in Lu Man’s mind. “Do you still want to study
here?”
Facing his question, Lu Man pursed her lips.
Chapter 432: He Was Stunned By How Thick-Skinned

Lu Man Was
She had to admit that she on the first day itself she had a very bad
impression of this place.
Of course, she could not say the same about other teachers as well just
because of Teacher Li.
The National Drama Academy was a school having highly skilled

teachers who cultivated many seniors in the industry with a lot of talents
and good morals.
The professors here were talented and highly regarded.
However, the situation took an ugly turn and even if she chose to stay, it
would not be the same as before.
Right now, Principal Zhang didn’t look enraged, but it was hard to ensure
that there would not be any bad impression left after this whole incident.
If she studied here, she would be under Principal Zhang.
And every time Han Zhuoli could not solve matters for her and even Lu
Man did not want him to be distracted because of her.
“Nevermind,” Lu Man said, “This place doesn’t welcome me and looks

down on a transfer student like me, so I won’t insist on trying to try to
force myself in a place which looks down on me.”
“Alright.” Han Zhuoli nodded and agreed.
But how could Principal Zhang watch his money source walk away?
It was very clear that as long as Lu Man stayed here, all their demands
would be fulfilled by Han Corporation!
Since Han Zhuoli wanted Lu Man to have the most comfortable life she
could have here, he would be generous with his investments.
Principal Zhang suddenly remembered that Han Corporation had agreed

to build a film and television set only after Han Zhuoli had him help settle
Lu Man’s school transfer.
At that moment, Principal Zhang felt that this film and television testing
set was being constructed especially for Lu Man.
“Lu Man, you misunderstood, our school definitely does not have such
unwelcoming attitude.” Principal Zhang hurriedly tried to appease Lu
Man. “Teacher Li’s personal attitude cannot represent the whole school,
our school welcomes you!”
Principal Zhang quickly exchanged looks with other teachers.
Instantly, there was someone saying, “Right, Lu Man, I saw the Greedy

Wolf Operation you starred in, you acted extremely well. I could instantly
tell that you are talented. You interpreted your role very well, and even
your gaze was all on point. It’s very hard to imagine that you have no
experience in acting. Lu Man, come to our school, and you will get the
well-rounded, holistic education, you’ll definitely excel even more.”
“Right, you’ll definitely be like Zhang Shuidong, Gao Zishan, and Liu Jie,
and become a famous talent celebrity representing our school,” another
teacher chimed in.
These three celebrities had debuted international film too.
The three of them often made appearances in the popular film festivals
overseas, and Zhang Shuidong and Liu Jie had obtained Best Actor and
Best Actress in the Cannes Film Festival before, while Gao Zishan could
act and sing too. She had managed to debut in Hollywood, and the
Grammys had even invited her for a performance.
However, she still could not avoid the suppression of the Asians by
Hollywood, and could not get a stable position in Hollywood.
Yet she was already the one who had accomplished a lot among the
celebrities in the country.
Although it looked like Lu Man had a smile on her face, she was no way
pleased and they really could say anything to keep her there.
As for her future career progression, she herself couldn’t determine it
right now. Yet they were licking her boots, praising her to the skies. But
Lu Man was not embarrassed to accept it with a thick-skin.
“I think that it’s time for National Film Academy to have a graduate who
can compete with Zhang Shuidong and the other two seniors,” Lu Man
said.
Everybody: “…”
He was stunned by how thick-skinned Lu Man was!
They were just bootlicking, it was enough for you just to listen, but you
really had to admit it!
Seeing that Lu Man, their money source was going to leave, Principal
Zhang was extremely anxious. “Lu Man, as long as you agree to join our
school, every year, the top-level scholarship will be yours, and even the
most outstanding student award will be yours too. I know that these are
nothing to you.”
Chapter 433: As Soon As She Opens Her Mouth, She

Insults A Person till they wish to be dead
Using money to tempt Han Zhuoli’s girlfriend?
What a joke!
It was as funny as boasting your figure to be excellent in front of a bikini

model, or telling Warren Buffett that you are a God at stocks and shares,
or telling Gate that you are the richest person in the world.
“But these monetary benefits are secondary, the most important thing is
prestige. Every year, our school has a few slots in an exchange program
with New York University’s performance school. New York University’s
performance school is regarded as the best in the world, and its
acceptance rate is extremely low, and in the country, our school is one of
the two schools having an exchange program with them—”
“The National Film Academy too.” Lu Man cut him off.
Principal Zhang: “…”
This little girl, why was it so hard to deal with her even though she was
so young!
“There’s no need to say anymore, all that glory, I can achieve myself,” Lu
Man said, “I’m sorry, I have no affinity with your esteemed school.”
“Let’s go,” Lu Man told Han Zhuoli.
Han Zhuoli nodded and agreed.
However, Principal Zhang still did not wish to give up and trying to come
up with ways to persuade Lu Man.
in the end, he heard Han Zhuoli say, “I’ll also help Zhuofeng settle his
school transfer.”
Excuse me?
He did not tell him about that!
“I just decided to do it,” Han Zhuoli did not feel guilty at all and would
cause trouble for his younger brother whenever he wanted. He did not
care about Han Zhuofeng or his parents’ opinion. “From today, our Han
family does not have any relation with the National Drama Academy.”
“Young Master Han…” Principal Zhang was extremely flustered. “Don’t

be angry, we can sit down and slowly discuss this.”
“Let’s go,” Han Zhuoli said to Han Zhuofeng and had already brought Lu
Man to leave.
Han Zhuofeng scratched his head and helplessly followed him.
“Young Master Han! Young Master Han!” Principal Zhang followed

behind without a thought.
He chased them to the school campus and since there were many
students around, due to his position as the principal, he could only stop
and watch them leave.
Furious, Principal Zhang returned to the office.
Seeing how Teacher Li’s face was totally red, Principal Zhang was so
enraged that he did not know what to do. “Teacher Li, you were
excellent! I plan on reporting it and telling the higher-ups about your
actions.”
Teacher Li’s whole body went cold, and he almost fell over. “I did not do
anything.”
“You have caused our school to lose half of the investments, and also
caused the Han Corporation to take back their sponsorship, is this
nothing? Then I’m really curious, I wonder how much losses the school
has to suffer if you really do something!” Principal Zhang waved his hand
angrily.
Before this, he had taken any action against Teacher Li because

Teacher Li also had a backer.
As the principal, it was not that he could not do anything to him, but it
was just that he did not want to offend the influential people behind
Teacher Li.
But this time, Teacher Li had made a grave mistake and no one would
support him!
Thinking about that, Principal Zhang began to be troubled, he was

unsure about what to do about the funds next year.
***
On the other hand, Han Zhuoli, Han Zhoufeng, and Lu Man left the
school campus and got in their car.
Han Zhuofeng asked, “Older Brother, you want to transfer me out, where
will you transfer me to?”
Han Zhuoli said nonchalantly, “The National Film Academy.”
“Wherever Lu Man is going, of course, you must follow. When Lu Man is

studying there, take care of her. If I find out that someone bullied her and
you did not protect her, then you can obediently come to work at Han
Corporation, don’t dream of being a director ever.”
Han Zhouli had attacked Han Zhuofeng’s weak point.
Feeling wronged, aggrieved, Han Zhuofeng pointed at Lu Man. “Why

would she get bullied? It’s already good if she doesn’t bully people! As
soon as she opens her mouth, she insults a person until they wish to
die!”
Lu Man: “…”
Surprised, she raised an eyebrow at Han Zhuofeng.
Young man, be careful of your wording.
Chapter 434: Even More Like A Celebrity Than A

Celebrity
Han Zhuofeng puffed out his chest and raised his head. “I’m not scared
of you.”
Lu Man stifled a laugh, and the corner of her lips twitched as she looked
away. She then apologized to Han Zhuoli, “I’m so sorry, everything had
been settled but I changed my mind at the last moment.”
“Since such an incident happened today, even if you had decided to stay
behind, I wouldn’t feel reassured. Furthermore, it’s me who first took
back all the investment Han Corporation had in the National Drama
Academy, so even if you stayed behind, it’ll be awkward.”
Lu Man gave it a thought and agreed, as even though Lu Qi and He

Zhengbai were in the National Film Academy, she could easily endure it.
Han Zhuoli instantly sent people to help Lu Man and Han Zhuofeng deal
with the transfer.
Thus, Lu Man stayed at home for one more week.
On Monday of next week, Lu Man officially went to the Film Academy to

report.
When he went to fetch Lu Man, as soon as Lu Man got in the car, she
saw that Han Zhuofeng was there too.
Han Zhuoli quickly explained with a black, cold face, “This guy had his
chauffeur drive him to my house this morning, and said that since I need
to send you to school, I can send him there too.”
Lu Man: “…”
Haha, this perverted brother complex.
Han Zhuofeng had his own car and even a chauffeur, he could go to
school himself, yet he insisted on having Han Zhuoli sent him to school.
Upon reaching the National Film Academy, before getting out of the
care, Han Zhuoli took out a pair of sunglasses and a mask.
The National Film Academy had a lot of young famous students, and it
was very different from the National Drama Academy.
Here, Han Zhuoli would very easily be recognized by anyone.
Watching Han Zhuoli cover his lips and his eyes, he really looked like a
celebrity.
“Ha!” Han Zhuofeng laughed and said, “Older Brother, you’re even more
like a celebrity than a real celebrity.”
Han Zhuoli was tall and had long legs, his aura was not something
celebrities could compare to.
Wasn’t it just like what Han Zhuofeng said, he was even more of a
celebrity than a real celebrity?
Learning from their lesson at the National Drama Academy, Han Zhuoli
directly brought Lu Man to the principal’s office.
Principal Liu and Principal Zhang were old enemies, and the competition
between the two schools was tough. Of course, principals of different
schools would compete in all areas.
He had also heard about how the Drama Academy’s Teacher Li had
managed to offend Lu Man, causing the Drama Academy to lose a living
God of Wealth and Fortune.
Moreover, Han Zhuoli had totally removed all of the investments the Han
Corporation had in the Drama Academy in anger.
And now, Principal Zhang was resorting to all kinds of ways to get
investments, but even the investors were smart, and although they did
not know the real reason, seeing how Han Corporation had taken back
all their investments suddenly, they did not agree too. After all, there had
to be a reason!
They did not want to offend Han Corporation, they did not want the Han
Corporation to feel they were competing with them by purposely going
against the Han Corporation!
They absolutely could not afford to unleash Han Corporation’s wrath on
them!
So they rejected it right away and turned into spectators.
Therefore Principal Zhang was at his wit’s end, pulling on his hair every
day, causing his hair to fall out in clumps.
The National Drama Academy had incurred huge losses.
While Teacher Li was even worse off, he was directly being investigated
by the higher-ups.
All his horrible deeds from the past were emerging up one by one.
On the other hand, Principal Liu was excited and happy; Lu Man, the
Goddess of Fortune was going to attend their National Film Academy!
He could not be like Principal Zhang, stupidly shooing away the

goddess.
When Han Zhuoli brought Lu Man and Han Zhuofeng into the office,
Principal Liu warm-heartedly welcomed them and shook hands with Lu
Man. “Lu Man, welcome to our school! It makes me especially proud and
happy that you chose our school! Thank you, thank you!”
Han Zhuoli took down his mask and glasses, praised Principal Liu for
being much smarter than Principal Zhang.
Chapter 435: What an Upright Child

“I’ve already settled your transfer procedures,” Principal Liu said, and
took out the form, “You just need to sign here.”
Lu Man took a look and signed her name.
Principal Liu then passed the form to Han Zhuofeng. “Zhuofeng, come
here, this is yours.”
This Principal Liu really got familiar with him so fast!
After that, Principal Liu brought out two stacks of books. “These are your
textbooks, and this is your schedule.”
Han Zhuoli took a look and took out the books they needed for today.
“As for the rest of the books, I’ll help you carry home so that you don’t
need to carry so many books back, it’s too heavy.”
Han Zhuofeng instantly said, “Older Brother, help me take mine home
too.”
Han Zhuoli’s face was cold. “Take it home yourself.”
As he said it, he carried Lu Man’s books up and even pushed Han

Zhuofeng’s books to the side in disdain.
Han Zhoufeng’s felt himself suffer a heartbreak!
Lu Man looked at the time and saw that it was already quite late.
Scared that she would delay his work, she said, “Hurry back to the
company, I’m quite alright here. With Zhuofeng here, he will help me.”
“I didn’t say anything, don’t try to use me!” Han Zhuofeng shook his head
hurriedly.
Seeing Han Zhuoli glared coldly at him, Han Zhuofeng instantly clamped
his mouth shut.
However, Han Zhouli really should be leaving, he had a meeting after

this.
“Then I’ll go first, if you have anything, give me a call,” Han Zhuoli said.
All long, Principal Liu had been observing their interaction, the more
looked, the more he felt that Han Zhuoli and Lu Man’s relationship was
not simple.
Although he had heard about how Han Zhuoli had withdrawn all the
investments due to Lu Man, Principal Zhang was a sly old fox; if he was
unlucky, he refused to let other people do well either and kept Han
Zhuoli and Lu Man’s relationship to himself.
Han Zhuoli had especially let Principal Liu know about how much he
valued Lu Man to prevent people from daring to bully Lu Man.
“Haha, Young Master Han, you can go and continue with your work, I’m
here for Lu Man.” Principal Liu patted his thick chest. “I’ll personally take
them to their classroom.”
Han Zhuoli nodded. “I know that the National Film Academy recently has
a few projects for which they need investments, you can go over to the
Han Corporation to discuss.”
Principal Liu was so excited that his heart skipped a beat, Lu Man was
really the living Goddess of Fortune!
“Alright, alright!” Principal Liu hurriedly nodded. “Young Master Han,

don’t worry, Lu Man is in our school, and I’ll make sure that her life is
relaxed and happy, no one will bully her!”
Han Zhuoli smiled in satisfaction, Principal Liu was really smart!
After that, he told Lu Man, “Then I’ll be going first, if you have anything,
give me a call immediately.”
“Alright.” Lu Man smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry.”
Unlike his caring expression just now, Han Zhuoli looked threateningly at
Han Zhuofeng, and Han Zhuofeng instantly expressed his stand,
“Here… isn’t there still me here?”
Han Zhuoli was very satisfied. “Remember what you said.”
Otherwise, I’ll pull you to the Han Corporation to work.
Han Zhuofeng could see the threat behind Han Zhuoli’s words and
instantly nodded his head in resolve.
Han Zhuoli was not at all scared of Han Zhuofeng going back on his
word.
Han Zhuoli carried Lu Man’s book and left, while Principal Liu said
eagerly, “Lu Man, Zhuofeng, let’s go, I’ll bring you to your respective
classes.”
Coming out of the office, Principal Liu saw Han Zhuofeng’s hands were
filled with very heavy books, so he said, “Why don’t we go to your class
first?”
“There’s no need, I’ll see her into class first,” Han Zhuofeng was still very
responsible.
Lu Man smiled and stretched out her hand, “I’ll help you take a few.”
“There’s no need,” Han Zhuofeng turned away. “If my Older Brother gets
to know this, he would skin me alive.”
Lu Man: “…”
Principal: “…”
What an upright child, haha.
Chapter 436: You’re Dead

As they walked towards the classroom, Principal Liu could not hold back
the curiosity in his heart, and finally asked, “Lu Man, you and Young
Master Han — ”
“There’s no need to try to find out any more, she’s my brother’s
girlfriend.” Han Zhuofeng pursed his lips. “Of course, who knows they
might break up.”
Principal Liu laughed it off, he was too smart; he had noticed Han Zhuoli
and Lu Man intimate interaction right now.
As for whether they would get married or not, it was hard to tell, but they
were definitely not fooling around.
Although from Han Zhuofeng’s words it seemed that he held disdain for
Lu Man, didn’t he still take look after her very well?
Having learned a lesson from Principal Zhang, Principal would definitely

not let his subordinates handle matters concerning Lu Man.
Moreover, Lu Man and Han Zhuoli’s relation could not be disclosed to

any random person; if he were to be unlucky to meet someone as dumb
as Teacher Li, then he would have to pull at his hair with Principal
Zhang.
When they reached Lu Man’s classroom, a theory lesson was being

taught in the class.
Principal Liu knocked on the door a few times, and the professor
stopped teaching. The professor opened the door and was stunned to
see Principal Liu standing outside. “Principal?”
“I have brought a new student to join your class.” Facing the professor,
Principal Liu transformed into the stern, bold personality of a principal.
“This is Lu Man, she will be taking the performing arts course. She has
also starred in Greedy Wolf Operation which broke the box office
record.”
“This is Professor Hong, the teacher for the performing lesson,” Principal
Liu introduced Lu Man.
“Hello, Professor Hong,” Lu Man politely greeted him.

Professor Hong politely praised her, “I saw your performance in Greedy
Wolf Operation , it’s really excellent. Director Sun also sang your praises
and told me that you have a knack for performing, but it’s just that you
haven’t taken any professional education which puts you at a
disadvantage. It makes me very happy to meet you in person and get to
know you.”
No matter what, the Film Academy had quite a lot of students who
became famous before adulthood or had good connections thus
receiving special treatment. Hence, Professor Hong wasn’t surprised or
found it strange for Principal Liu to escort Lu Man himself and have her
transfer in the second semester.
Moreover, not everyone was as arrogant as Teacher Li, unable to see

others have a good life.
Also, not everyone relied on the casting couch, some people really had
good backgrounds.
Even Principal Liu had personally escorted her to the classroom, placing
more emphasis on her, so Lu Man had to have a strong background.
Although Professor Hong was a teacher in the Film Academy, she

herself was a talented actor, having good cordial relations with many
famous directors.
Earlier, Sun Yiwu had really praised Lu Man and it was his honest
opinion and not false praise.
Moreover, when the topic of Lu Man came up, Sun Yiwu did not regard
her as a budding starlet from the younger generation. Instead, he treated
her at the same level, subtly hinting that Lu Man had a very good
background, and no one in the entertainment circle can afford to offend
her.
Therefore, Teacher Hong was not surprised that Lu Man could transfer
to the Film Academy without going through the test.
“Lu Man just finished her admission procedure, so I personally walked
her to the classroom. In case she can’t keep up with the curriculum,
please take care of her,” Principal Liu said.
“No problem.” Professor Hong agreed right away.
Although reluctant, Han Zhuofeng still said, “I’m taking the direction
course, if you ever need any help, you can look for me. Of course, it’s
best if you don’t find me. However, you know how to get to the Director
class, right? If you don’t just ask someone. Do you have my cell phone
number?”
Finding his attitude funny, Lu Man watched him answer his own
questions.
As expected, without waiting for her reply, Han Zhuofeng said,

“Nevermind, I think that you don’t have it.”
Han Zhuofeng immediately took out a pen. “Give me your book.”
Lu Man passed him one of the books in her hand, and Han Zhuofeng
wrote down his phone number on the title page.
“After you save it onto your phone, destroy it immediately, don’t tell
anyone! If you dare to tell people my cell phone number, you’re dead!”
Han Zhuofeng threatened her fiercely.
Chapter 437: Saying One Thing But Meaning

Something Else
Lu Man gave him a cheeky response. “The oldest sister-in-law is like a

mother, you need to be filial.”

Even though he really admired Han Zhuoli, he couldn’t deny that Han
Zhuoli had a scary mouth.
One Han Zhuoli was enough already, but now Lu Man had also
appeared in his wife. For some reason, he thought of the King of Glory
term: Double Kill!
All this while, Lu Man had a devious smile on her face as she saw Han
Zhoufeng clamp his mouth shut and haughtily leave.
Lu Man could not help but find it amusing; this Han Zhuofeng was quite
similar to the Old Madam Han.
She was all bark and no bite, but her bark was worse than her bite;
saying one thing but meaning something else.
Even though he said that he did not like her, and would definitely not
help her, very disdainful of her, but when he had to help her, he definitely
would not avoid it.
Professor Liu then walked Han Zhuofeng to his class, and Professor
Hong brought Lu Man into the classroom.
All of the students curiously focused their attention onto Lu Man,

chattering and whispering to each other.
Looking at the group of students who were 18 or 19-year-old, Lu Man

suddenly felt that she was old already.
“Everyone maintain silence!” Professor Hong said, “This is a new

transfer student, I believe that quite a lot of people already recognize
her.”
The students that were sitting down found Lu Man looking quite familiar.
Finally, someone asked, “Why do I feel like she looks a bit like
the Greedy Wolf Operation Lu Man?”
“It’s really her?”

“That’s Lu Man?”
Professor Hong signaled for everyone to be quiet. “Lu Man introduce

yourself.”
Lu Man eloquently said, “Hello everyone, I’m Lu Man. That’s right, it’s Lu
Man from the Greedy Wolf Operation . As everyone knows, I have
starred in Greedy Wolf Operation , but I am not a professional actress,
so after acting in that movie, I wanted to study performing. Because I
was late to get in touch with acting, I needed to start from the beginning,
so I will be repeating my Year One. The truth is, all though I am elder to
you all, I’m just 22-years-old this year.”
Although she was older than all these children from Year One these
children, it was common knowledge and there was nothing to hide, so it
was better to say it out clearly.
“How did you get chosen to act in Greedy Wolf Operation , a lot of
professional actors auditioned for it but did not succeed, while you did
not have any experience, why did the director select you?” A student
asked curiously.
This was what everyone had been curious about since Lu Man starred in
that movie.
While some students found her selection to be strange and were waiting
for juicy gossip. On the other hand, some students felt that if Lu Man got
a role without casting couch then perhaps someday they might get lucky
too!
Hence, everyone was eagerly waiting for her answer.
However, this was Professor Hong’s class and not an interview for her.
So Lu Man looked towards Teacher Hong to ask for her opinion.
Seeing Lu Man ask for her opinion and respect her so much, Teacher
Hong had a good impression of Lu Man.
She felt that this girl was courteous and her popularity from starring in
Greedy Wolf Operation, a blockbuster movie having 3 billion box office
sales, did not go to her head.
Having taught a lot of students, she had seen a lot. Many young actors
and actresses who became famous after joining Film Academy let their
fame go to their head, and looked down on others.
Even if it was not to the extent of looking down on everyone, most

people would not be as courteous as Lu Man and would often forget that
it was a class and not an exclusive interview scheduled for them.
However, Lu Man had asked for her opinion.
Hence, Professor Hong was also courteous towards Lu Man and said in
a low voice, “If you think it’s alright for you to answer, you can go ahead
and answer.”
Chapter 438: Eloquent

“It’s alright.” Anyway, they were classmates, and in the three and a half
years ahead, they would be together and she could not let herself be
isolated.
Having the same thought as Lu Man, Professor lend a helping hand to

Lu Man by saying, “I know that you have a lot of questions to ask, but it’s
a class so I’ll give you all just 10 minutes to ask her questions, but after
10 minutes, even if you are still haven’t satisfied your curiosity, we’ll
officially start our lesson.”
And so, Lu Man said, “It’s actually a coincidence, and a bit of my luck, I
was originally working in the Public Relations Department in Han
Corporation.”
When she said that, a lot of students nodded.
They knew about it.

Lu Man’s public relations skills were too good, alright?
Yu Xingzhou and Bai Shuangshuang, these two people had already

disappeared from the entertainment industry.
“As for my role in Greedy Wolf Operation , originally, the original actress
got injured and could no longer continue filming, so Director Sun had
come to the Han Corporation to find a replacement, and my colleagues
were insistent on having me tag along to take a look. The role requires
the actor to be skilled in martial arts and thus the martial art director had
designed a few moves that were difficult to execute and such that only a
person having martial arts background would be able to do it. It just
happened that I’ve learned martial arts before, and because the timing
was rushed, a lot of suitable actors did not have the free time, and those
who could come were not suitable, and that’s how I got lucky.”
“Lu Man, the Greedy Wolf Operation is quite interesting, but a lot of

people believe that it’s not to the extent of getting 3 billion ticket sales,
your publicity tactics have played a large role in that, right?”
“The Greedy Wolf Operation is a very good movie. It has positivity and

emotions that touch your heart. It’s just that because the plot is a little
heavier, and quite a few people are prejudiced against locally produced
movies. However, as for those people who actually went to watch the
movie, who did not say it was good? A good movie produced locally, all
it lacks is good publicity and the audience’s confidence. The box office
record is expected and deserved of Greedy Wolf Operation .”
Professor Hong, who was listening intently from the side, became more
and more shocked.
Lu Man was an eloquent speaker, her answers did not pale in

comparison to those of a press conference.
She answered each question diplomatically, without insulting the Greedy

Wolf Operation .
“Then can you help me do publicity! All those people for whom you have
done publicity have become famous,” someone in the audience asked
playfully.
“Are you referring to Yu Xingzhou and Bai Shuangshuang?” Lu Man

raised her eyebrows and asked, her lips curved upwards.
Suddenly, everyone burst into a fit of laughter.
“Alright, ten minutes are up,” Professor Hong quickly announced and
directed Lu Man to an empty seat. “Lu Man sit over there.”
Lu Man nodded and went over to sit, and Professor Hong started her
lesson again.
However, the students had been intrigued by Lu Man and so their

attention was not completely on the lesson.
After the lesson, a few girls encircled her.
“Lu Man, do you have any shows to film after this?”
“Nope, I’m a newcomer, it was just my luck to be cast in Director Sun’s

film. So during this period, I’ll concentrate on learning to perform.”
“Lu Man, which dormitory do you stay in?” Another person asked
curiously.
“I’m a day student.” Lu Man did not want people to think that she was
being arrogant, so she explained, “I’m from this city, and my Mom’s
health is not good, so if I stay in school, I won’t feel at ease leaving her
home alone.”
Instantly, some people recollected the news on Lu Man’s family matters.
At that time, it was very rampant on the Internet and a hot topic known
by almost the whole city.
Hence, upon learning that Lu Man was studying part-time and a day
student, no one felt that she was getting special privileges.
“So it’s like that, I’m the class monitor. I’m Zheng Yuan, if you have
anything you don’t understand, you can ask me.” It was the same girl
who had asked Lu Man which dormitory she was staying in.
Chapter 439: Only Played a Small Role

“Alright, thank you,” Lu Man thanked sincerely.
She really cherished Zheng Yuanshi’s kindness.
“Next we have a practical lesson for performance. We have to go to the

dance studio.” Zheng Yuan reminded everyone.
At the same time, another girl seated in the classroom was also
surrounded by a group of people and was chatting with them.
Taking a glance at Lu Man’s direction, Zhuang Tingting scoffed

nonchalantly, “Didn’t she just act in a movie? She only played a small
role, but look at all those people sucking up to her.”
“That’s right, she was just lucky to get a small role in the movie. It may
seem like she started off at a higher point, but in the future, it will be a
different story altogether! So many people debut in a famous director’s
film, yet later on, they did not have any major breakthroughs at all.” Yu
Jingxian pursed her lips, her dismay and disregard evident.
“That’s right, unlike Xiaoying who started acting since her teenage years.
Xiaoying was gorgeous since her childhood, she never had a lack of
opportunities and always has had shows wanting to cast her. It’s useless
for those people to flock to Lu Man!” Zhuang Tingting derided Lu Man,
trying to suck up to Zhang Xiaoying.
“Xiaoying, I heard that you’re going to star in some big-scale show and
that you will be the female lead, and the show completely revolves
around the female lead,” Yu Jingxian asked.
The corner of Zhang Xiaoying’s mouth curled upwards smugly,

extremely pleased with their flattery. “That’s right, when I was in high
school, I couldn’t act in such shows and there was a restriction on the
shows I could act in as people find it inappropriate for a minor girl saying
romantic lines on the screen. So those producers were waiting for me to
enter college, and finally when I got accepted by Film Academy, instantly
a lot of scripts piled up for me. I had to go through quite a lot of scripts
before I could finalize on this one.”
“I really envy you, you have so many opportunities and resources. We

are still learning the basics with the other first-year students while you’re
already filming show after show,” Yu Jingxian said, her face filled with
envy and admiration.
Attempting to ingratiate herself, Zhuang Tingting tugged on Zhang

Xiaoying’s shirt sleeve. “Xiaoying, are there any supporting characters in
this show you just took on? Can you recommend me an audition? It
doesn’t matter if it’s not an important character, I just want to have some
experience working in a crew.”
She had come here with a dream to be a celebrity and now she wanted
to experience how it felt to act in a film.
In her mind, Zhang Xiaoying scoffed with disregard to herself, but still,
put on a fake look of concern. “Sure, I’ll help find some for you. It’s
alright to help you look for a role, but would you be able to take leave
from school once I do? Our school has a strict rule that you can’t
privately accept any roles before the second year of university. It’s fine
for me because I have to film all year long and if I don’t take on the
shows, the investors won’t be happy too. They will have to contact the
school, and the school will have to give me the go-ahead. But what
about you? If you can take a leave, then I’ll help you look for a role.”
Zhuang Tingting froze. Her heart which was earlier warm and brimming
with happiness instantly turned cold. Putting on a smile that looked even
worse than a crying face, she said, “That’s right, I don’t have those
connections and the background you have, the school definitely won’t
break the rules for me.”
After contemplating for a moment, Zhuang Tingting tugged onto Zhang

Xiaoying’s hand again. “Then when I’m in my third year could you help
me by looking out for some good roles for me, is that alright?”
“We’ll see when you’re in your third year.” Zhang Xiaoying pulled her
hand back coldly
“Let’s go,” Yu Jingxian said, “We should head to the dance studio.”
Meanwhile, the other students in the classroom had already paired off
our grouped off and started leaving. Zhang Xiaoying got up and started
to leave too.
On the other hand, Lu Man, Zheng Yuanshi and her circle of friends
were together.
When they reached the studio, they sat cross-legged on the floor.
The practical performance teacher, Professor Yao, instantly recognized

Lu Man and was rather surprised. “You are Lu Man?”
Instantly, Lu Man stood up and greeted courteously. “Nice to meet you,

Professor Yao. I’ve officially joined the school today.”
Chapter 440: Performance

Professor Yao was pleased. “Good.”
“Today, our theme is animals . The little monkey is helping the Monkey
King pick lice out of his body. Just then, an adult male monkey comes to
challenge the Monkey King, wanting to replace him. Zhang Xiaoying,
Zhuang Tingting, and Yu Jingxian, you three will give these three roles a
try first. Xiaoying, be a good example for your classmates.”
Since Zhang Xiaoying had rich acting experience and had even acted in
scenes with many experienced veteran actors, for any new topic,
Professor Yao always had Zhang Xiaoying give the class a
demonstration first.
Feeling pleased with herself for being the first choice of Professor Yao,
Zhang Xiaoying hid her smug smile as she stood up and followed
Zhuang Tingting and Yu Jingxian to the center.
Zhang Xiaoying chose to act as the little monkey who was helping the
monkey king pick lice. Although Zhuang Tingting and Yu Jingxian
wanted to take on that role too, they didn’t dare to fight with Zhang
Xiaoying for it.
Eventually, Zhuang Tingting played the monkey king while Yu Jingxian

played the challenger.
As Professor Yao watched, he shook his head quietly to himself.
Zhang Xiaoying was way too burdened by her image of being an idol,
and completely wasn’t willing to look ugly while acting. Being held down
by that, her acting wasn’t outstanding at all, it wasn’t even considered a
pass.
“Xiaoying, you are really getting into your role and performing it well. But,
you are way too concerned about your image, so there’s no charm to it
or even some sort of form to your performance. Playing the little monkey
is not just about acting cute.” Professor Yao didn’t say anything else
further, afraid that Zhang Xiaoying would be too embarrassed by it in
front of her classmates.
“Although there are cute little monkeys, a monkey who knows how to
help the monkey king pick out his lice has already passed the stage of
acting cute. Moreover, this is a wild monkey, they are more animalistic
and feral, they don’t just blink their eyes and act cute just for people to
look at them.” Other than pouting her mouth and pretending to pick lice,
Zhang Xiaoying only knew to run away in terror, pretend to hind, blinking
her eyes, she was still acting cute.
As for Zhuang Tingting and Yu Jingxian, he didn’t even want to speak
about it, he couldn’t even look at their performance.
Therefore, Zhang Xiaoying felt even more embarrassed. Lowering her

head, she went back to her seat with an unpleasant expression.
She believed to have performed excellently. She didn’t believe that

anyone else in the class could act better than her.
Moreover, she had learned and acted under the direction and
supervision of many directors before, so she knew her standards very
well.
Saying that she was not into the role?
Haha, she won’t be acting as a monkey in the future anyway, what’s the
point of getting so into that role!
She wasn’t into it, but does that mean the rest were into it?
Zhuang Tingting and Yu Jingxian were way worse than her!
“Lu Man, come and give it a try,” Professor Yao said, “Zheng Yuanshi,
you too.”
Since they were lacking one person, Professor Yao volunteered, “I’ll play
the third role and personally demonstrate it to all of you.”
After Lu Man and Zheng Yuanshi walked over, Professor Yao asked,
“Which role do you want to enact? You two can pick first.”
Zheng Yuanshi looked sheepishly at Lu Man. She wanted to act as the

little monkey, but today was Lu Man’s first day and if she snatched the
role for herself, it would give the impression that she was bullying Lu
Man.
Even if Lu Man had acted in a movie before, she still didn’t have any
proper training. On the other hand, Zheng Yuanshi had undergone six
months of training and education after all.
Sensing Zheng Yuan’s internal conflict, Lu Man spoke up, “Which one do
you want? You can choose first.”
Zheng Yuanshi hesitated for a short moment, and finally still chose what
was best for herself.
“I want to act as the little monkey, but if you want it too, then it’s fine too,
I can choose—”
It was just that since she had already told her to choose first, how could
Lu Man fight over it?
“Alright, you can play the little monkey,” Lu Man said badly.
Professor Yao didn’t know whether Lu Man behaved like this because
she was just a newcomer and did not want to have any confrontation
with her classmates, or because she was confident that she could play
any role well.
Hence he asked Lu Man, “Which one do you want to choose?”
Lu Man didn’t stand on ceremony either and said, “I want to play the
monkey king.”
Professor Yao was surprised. From the look on Lu Man’s face, it seemed
that right from the start she had already made up her mind to play the
monkey king.
“Alright, then I will act as the challenger,” Professor Yao said.

Chapter 412: Stop Making Such a Big Fuss

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
