Chapter 118: Does Your Boss Give Refunds?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Xiaocha was lying on the bed in her pajamas, her fair feet sticking up and down.
Her soft black hair draped over her shoulders, making her delicate face look even more snow-white and lustrous, like beautiful jade that could shine.
In a soft voice, she told her second brother about the director, Therode.
Lu Beiqing was surprised. “Therode gave you his name card?
Lu Xiaocha raised her head. “Do you want this business card or not? If not, I’ll throw it away.”
Lu Beiqing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that the business card that countless people in the entertainment industry wanted was like an ordinary piece of paper in his sister’s hand.
“How did someone like him find you?”
Lu Xiaocha heard his brother’s familiar tone and asked, “Second Brother, do you know that person?”
Lu Beiqing nodded. “Not only do I know him, but the character he asked you to take on was also discussed by me and him. Magical World is a series of fantasy movies.
The characters in it had always been Western-looking. The audience was a little tired of that, so he wanted to add an Eastern-looking character.
Then he came to me to discuss it with me. The role was drawn up, but he never found the actor he had in mind. He said that he came to the East to try his luck and see if he could find one.
But I didn’t think he would find his way to you. Since Therode gave you his card, it’s up to you if you want to go. Don’t worry about me.”
Lu Xiaocha asked with a conflicted expression, “Brother, are you going to film this movie too?”
Lu Beiqing was surprised by his little sister’s sharp senses and did not lie to her.
“Therode did invite me to direct Magical World together, and I’d like to take this opportunity to learn a thing or two, so I’ll be there, but you don’t have to worry about me.”
Lu Xiaocha nodded. “Then I’ll think about it.”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xiaocha fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
On the other hand, Lu Beiqing had received a video invitation from Therode after ending the call with his sister.
As soon as the call connected, the middle-aged Western gentleman spoke with excitement.
“Lu, did you see the photo I sent you? I found Yun Huan. I found our Yun Huan. That beautiful and powerful oriental elf. She’s even more beautiful than the role we discussed. I’m now full of inspiration and can make Yun Huan more alive.
A beautiful oriental elf with a face as delicate as an angel’s. She looked reserved and well-behaved, like a harmless, delicate doll, but there was a powerful energy in her petite body that could even tame a powerful dragon as a mount.
You have no idea. When I saw that Eastern girl tame Andre, I had that image in my head. It’s awesome!”
Therode spoke quickly, in his native language, in his excitement.
Lu Beiqing quietly waited for him to finish before telling him to calm down in Country M’s language.
“Therode, as happy as I am for you, I have to remind you that the Oriental girl you mentioned hasn’t accepted your offer.”
It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. Therode calmed down a lot. He was a little dazed.
“All right, I’ll admit you’re right, but I’m not giving up. If she doesn’t want to act, I don’t want anyone else to be Yun Huan, Lu. This is one of my favorite Eastern characters. I don’t want to film her using a poor substitute.”
Lu Beiqing smiled warmly and said, “I understand how you feel, so please do your best.”
Only after hanging up the video did Therode spot the blind spot.
He scratched his head and muttered, “That can’t be right. How did Lu know the Oriental girl didn’t agree? When did I tell him?”
At this moment, Lu Beiqing was looking at the photo sent by Therode.
It was very clear. The perspective was a little close, shot from the bottom up.
The fiery red horse leaped into the air with an imposing aura. Every inch of its muscles seemed to erupt with powerful strength.
The young lady on the horse was dressed in a black riding outfit. Her obedient and exquisite appearance made her look like a rich young lady who had been pampered by her family. Her snow-white skin seemed to be glowing under the sunlight.
However, her dark eyes were filled with fearless determination and heroism. She rode straight on the back of the fiery red horse and held the reins with one hand like a young female general who was about to go to the battlefield.
Her obedient and harmless appearance and fearless heroic aura were undoubtedly contradictory, but the combination made her look so stunning.
Lu Beiqing looked at his sister in the photo and felt proud.
This was his sister…
The next day, Lu Xiaocha woke up refreshed. After breakfast, she practiced martial arts with her family for exercise. Lu Xiaocha looked at the young man who had already developed tight abdominal muscles and then at her soft snow-white stomach.
She puffed out her cheeks and became as angry as a blowfish.
She was clearly more hardworking than anyone else and ran every day, but she didn’t look like she had any muscles at all!
When Andre was sent to the Lu family, Lu Xiaocha was watching Magical World on her computer.
Looking at the magnificent special effects, Lu Xiaocha’s eyes lit up.
“It’s pretty good.”
She took a bite of pear and became more serious as she watched.
She didn’t press pause until Andre arrived. She ran out with the pear in her mouth.
Getting out of the car, Andre was undoubtedly a sight to behold. Such a handsome horse would have been a tribute in ancient times, a treasure only the emperor could see.
Andre was very arrogant to others, but when it saw Lu Xiaocha, it stomped over and proactively lowered its head to rub against her.
Lu Xiaocha stroked its head as she listened to the horse trainer give her instructions on how to raise Andre.
“Andre eats a lot and is most fond of fresh fodder, so there needs to be a large enough pasture, or special fodder has to be transported from abroad.
This kind of horse also has to exercise a lot every day. It needed to run for a long time every day. The field for raising horses cannot be small, and you have to pay attention to brush its fur and wash its body.
The hooves need to be trimmed regularly, you have to pay attention to cleaning its teeth and a range of highest end beauty products…”
Lu Xiaocha listened carefully in the beginning, but the more she listened, the more her expression gradually stiffened and cracked.
She took a deep breath and withdrew her hands from Andre’s body with a whoosh. She asked the question in anticipation.
“How much… in total?”
The horse trainer did not think that the Lu family could not afford this, so he said a number.
A horse like Andre would cost about two million a year. If they had to build a racecourse, it would cost even more.
Lu Xiaocha covered her heart and asked carefully.
“If I return Andre now, will your boss refund it?”
The horse trainer: “???”
Andre: “!!!”
