Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband

1991 Just To Meet You

She could only put the matter aside for now.

However, with Lin Yu’s trust, the hidden pain in her heart had long calmed down. She had been healing herself for so many years.

Ning Luyao’s words could only deal her a temporary blow. It couldn’t affect her anymore.

All her work was going on normally.

When she came out of the event location of a variety show, she saw Manager Zhang waiting for her.

Manager Zhang had actually contacted her several times, but Ning Nuo refused to see him.

“Ning Nuo!” Manager Zhang called out to her.

Ning Nuo could only stop in her tracks.

Manager Zhang smiled and walked over. “I knew you were filming here today, so I rushed over. How did it go? Did the filming go smoothly?”

“Manager Zhang, I’ve already said that I won’t sign a contract with Haitian Entertainment,” Ning Nuo said calmly. “I have my own team. Please leave.”

Manager Zhang was very patient. “We can talk about it.”

Not only had they lost Ning Luyao previously, but the reputation of the company had also suffered a blow.

Manager Zhang did not manage to sign Ning Nuo, so the higher-ups had a lot of objections.

It was no wonder that Haitian Entertainment thought so highly of Ning Nuo. Ning Nuo’s current commercial value was soaring. Just her commercial fees were equivalent to the total fees of ten first and second-tier artistes in Haitian Entertainment.

Manager Zhang also secretly regretted not seeing Ning Nuo’s potential back then.

Who would know that a woman who came back from a construction site overseas had such commercial value and professionalism in the entertainment industry?

Therefore, Manager Zhang had been patient in wanting to sign Ning Nuo.

Unfortunately, Ning Nuo no longer had such plans.

“Ning Nuo, I know that your current studio is developing smoothly with Lin Yu’s resources and ability. But have you thought about it? If you rely on others, you’ll fall. If you don’t have the ability to catch up to Lin Yu, sooner or later, the gap between you and him will widen. And now, Haitian Entertainment is giving you a chance to close the gap. Brother Yong came from Haitian Entertainment. Can such a large company not compare to Brother Yong and the others?”

Manager Zhang guided her patiently.

Ning Nuo smiled and said, “Your words make sense. But I reject your contract.”

“Ning Nuo!” Manager Zhang’s patience was exhausted.

“Manager Zhang, think about it. From my perspective, would you dare to sign a contract with a company that tricked me and illegally replaced Ning Luyao in the entertainment industry? You learn from your mistakes. I’ve already suffered such a huge loss. Don’t I have to use my brains now?”

Manager Zhang was speechless.

Ning Nuo said, “Since your company has such good conditions, wouldn’t it be better to nurture other newcomers?”

It wasn’t that Manager Zhang hadn’t thought of it before!

However, after the incident with Ning Nuo, some celebrities with ambitions did not dare to choose Haitian Entertainment at all. They were afraid that they would be scammed in the future.

As for those who had just become famous, they chose to jump ship or set up their own businesses using this matter as an excuse!

Therefore, Haitian Entertainment wanted to sign Ning Nuo not only because of her commercial value.

It would also help their image in the outside world. It would show everyone that the company was not completely inhumane and only used and suppressed artistes.

The combination of the two was the reason why Haitian Entertainment valued Ning Nuo so much!

In the end, Manager Zhang said, “Think about it carefully. Anyway, in this industry, everyone has to give each other some face.”

Ning Nuo did not say anything. Manager Zhang turned around and left.

When she returned to the villa, Su Shulin ran over with a pile of documents.

“Nuo Nuo, come, take a look at these. Let’s study them together.”

Ning Nuo was immediately interested and opened the blueprint. “This is not bad. Is it your new design?”

“Yes, I specially brought it over for you to see. Let’s study it together for a while?”

“Okay.” Ning Nuo went up to change into a simple set of clothes and came down with a pen and paper.

She had been working on designs recently, but she was busy. She hadn’t made much progress yet.

When she saw Su Shulin’s design, she was shocked. No matter what, she had to study hard.

When Lin Yu opened the door and came in, he saw the two of them talking.

His face darkened slightly. He went forward to pull Su Shulin away and sat on his seat.

“Hey, Lin Stone, why are you snatching my seat?”

“What’s wrong with snatching your seat? Why can’t I snatch your seat?” Lin Yu glanced at him lazily. “Besides, is this your seat?”

He stretched out his long arm and slid it around Ning Nuo’s waist, pulling her closer to him.

Su Shulin was furious. He thumped his chest and stomped his feet. “You’re just bullying me because I don’t have a girlfriend.”

“It’s good that you know. Don’t show up in front of my girlfriend anymore.”

“You’re just a jealous lover!” Su Shulin said angrily.

Lin Yu closed the blueprints and said, “Take them away!”

“Don’t you have any humanity?! Can’t I have a little academic discussion with Nuo Nuo? Hmph.”

However, since they were almost done discussing, Su Shulin was not very angry. He put everything away in his bag.

Ning Nuo was almost done discussing with Su Shulin. It was quite interesting to watch them bicker.

After Su Shulin finished packing, he said, “I bought hotpot. Why don’t we have dinner together tonight?”

“Next time.” Lin Yu refused. “I plan to eat with my girlfriend.”

“Hmph!” Su Shulin was so angry that he took the hotpot away. “Then you guys can go eat yourselves!”

Watching him leave angrily, Ning Nuo smiled until her eyes narrowed.

However, she was a little worried. “Will your friendship be ruined?”

“He’s used to it. He’ll feel uncomfortable if he doesn’t get scolded by me for a day.”

“Did you grow up together?”

“Sort of. We became friends in the orphanage. Halfway through, he was taken overseas to further his studies because of his talent in architecture. When we met again, our relationship didn’t change at all. Actually, it’s more like we’re brothers than friends who grew up together.”

Ning Nuo knew about his past and knew that he had many friends. She nodded in agreement. “Indeed, sometimes people who are related by blood are the closest to each other, but sometimes, the friends you make outside are forever.”

The two of them chatted for a while and were about to go out to eat when they opened the door and saw a few packets of hotpot placed at the door.

They were left behind by Su Shulin.

Ning Nuo couldn’t help but laugh.

Lin Yu also smiled and brought them in. “I’ll handle it.”

…

When Ning Nuo participated in an event, she met Manager Zhang again in public.

He had a few artistes by his side. He was personally helping them find resources and activities.

Ning Nuo nodded in greeting.
