107: They're making a movie!

After a brief discussion, the five judges below began to reveal their scores.

Three judges surprisingly gave full marks, an honor no other contestant had received before.

The other two judges also gave high scores of 97 and 98.

Wu Fan and Lin Jingyi exchanged glances and high-fived to celebrate.

From the current rankings, Lin Jingyi's score was far in the lead.

However, there were still 12 contestants left, so everything was still unknown.

The waiting time always felt a bit long, but fortunately, when contestant number 30 finished and the judges had given their scores, Lin Jingyi's score on the big screen was still in the lead, making her the undisputed champion.

Wu Fan, delighted, couldn't help but hug her.

When the beautiful host announced Lin Jingyi as the champion, the venue erupted in thunderous applause.

With tears of excitement in her eyes, Lin Jingyi went up to receive her prize money and trophy.

When the host asked her about her thoughts, she looked towards Wu Fan.

She thanked Wu Fan for his ancient zither accompaniment and also thanked the organizers for holding such a meaningful competition.

Finally, she expressed her hope that her hometown's tea could be sold worldwide, helping them escape poverty and become prosperous soon.

Her tone was steady, her emotions sincere, and she spoke very well.

Afterward, Lin Jingyi proactively suggested treating Wu Fan to dinner.

"Brother Fan, without your help, I definitely wouldn't have won the championship. You must honor me with your presence at this dinner."

With the misunderstanding resolved and the air cleared, her impression of Wu Fan once again rapidly improved.

Wu Fan looked at her earnest expression, unwilling to refuse but also not wanting her to spend too much money. What should he do?

"What are you planning to treat me to?"

Lin Jingyi generously said, "What do you want to eat? Anywhere is fine. You deserve half the credit for the 5,000 yuan prize money."

Wu Fan waved his hand, "The judges mainly focused on your wonderful tea ceremony performance; my ancient zither playing only served as a slight embellishment."

"Brother Fan, how about I take you to eat Western food?"

"How about we go to a small restaurant and order a few stir-fried dishes? The taste is more authentic, right?"

Wu Fan's reasoning was very sound.

Lin Jingyi pursed her lips, then nodded, "Okay, shall we go now?"

"Let's meet in the lobby at five and head out. I'll go to my room to change and take a shower."

Lin Jingyi readily agreed.

Wu Fan returned to his suite and put the ancient zither back into the system warehouse.

"Ding, congratulations, host. The random mission is complete. 50,000 yuan in cash has been issued. Your current account balance is 1.931 million."

"Ding, congratulations, host. The Intermediate Sanda Skill Book has been stored in the system warehouse and can be retrieved at any time."

Wu Fan used the skill book, and his Sanda instantly upgraded to the level of a Six-Dan Golden Tiger.

Dinner was arranged at a small restaurant run by Taizhou people; the flavors were slightly strong, but fortunately, the prices were cheap.

The two ordered seven dishes, and Lin Jingyi only paid 230 yuan, which also included a large drink.

Wu Fan pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and leaned back in his chair, saying, "Do you still have any tea gift boxes?"

"Brother Fan, you want more?"

"Yes, I want quite a lot. How many do you have left at the Crescent Bay Hotel in total?"

Lin Jingyi blinked a few times, "Not many. The organizers took 500 sets, so there are only about three hundred boxes left of the 588 tier."

"I'll take them all."

"What? All of them? Are you giving them away again?"

Lin Jingyi was a bit skeptical, truly unable to fathom Wu Fan's intention in buying so many tea gift boxes.

He wouldn't make any more requests for her to sleep with him, would he?

Wu Fan said emotionlessly, "Are you so touched that you want to proactively sleep with me?"

Lin Jingyi's face instantly flushed red. Could he read minds? How did he hit the nail on the head?

Wu Fan's lips curved upward as he teased, "Don't be nervous, I'm just playing with you. With your unpolished skills, Brother really isn't interested."

Lin Jingyi looked up, staring at Wu Fan in surprise. What kind of person was he, to say such a thing?

Who doesn't have a first time?

She hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn't say those words.

Wu Fan put out his cigarette, "You're so young, why are you working so hard?"

Lin Jingyi frowned slightly and sighed, "My family needs money; there's no other way."

Wu Fan thought for a moment and said, "Have you ever considered opening a very unique tea house?"

Lin Jingyi's face suddenly brightened, "I dream of it, but opening such a shop is too expensive, and I don't have the means right now."

"How about I invest in opening one, and you'll be fully in charge? What do you think?"

Lin Jingyi looked at him in disbelief, a little slow to react.

Wu Fan continued, "I'll give you a fully decorated shop for free. You'll be responsible for your own profits and losses, so there shouldn't be much pressure, right?"

Lin Jingyi was stunned for a long time, her heart overflowing with joy.

If it were true, it would be like being given a free shop, something she wouldn't even dare to dream of.

"Brother Fan, if that's really the case, I can pay you rent every year."

Wu Fan said indifferently, "It depends on how well your business does. If you think you're making money, you can just pay a little. If you're not making much, you don't have to."

Lin Jingyi pursed her lips, "Brother Fan, why are you so good to me?"

"Because you've slept with me."

Lin Jingyi was speechless and shyly lowered her head.

This man's words were too crude.

Wu Fan smiled, "Let's go, I'll take you back."

Hearing Wu Fan's words, Lin Jingyi felt a bit unaccustomed.

This wasn't his style.

Wu Fan patted her shoulder, "Why are you standing there dumbfounded? Do you want to continue sleeping with me?"

"Huh?"

Wu Fan smiled faintly and had already stepped out of the private room.

He wanted to nurture Lin Jingyi first, until she proactively clung to him.

Last time, she was forced and it was a transaction.

He hoped next time, she would willingly undress...

Wu Fan sat alone in his car, lit a cigarette, and casually browsed today's headlines.

A movie poster caught his attention.

The female lead looked somewhat familiar. Clicking on it, it was indeed Qian Ning.

This woman was actually making a movie; it seemed she was developing quite well.

It was a romance film, and she played the second female lead, portraying someone else's mistress.

It told the story of the female lead's husband cheating with Qian Ning, and after the female lead discovered it, she cleverly fought for asset division.

The plot was a bit cliché, but the strong cast was the main draw.

The female lead was Yang Mi, a very famous contemporary young actress.

The male lead was a somewhat effeminate pretty boy, primarily a big traffic magnet.

Currently, too many Chinese people liked these effeminate men who were neither male nor female.

He didn't know when the style of fashion trends had completely changed.

Qian Ning acting alongside them would surely gain her some exposure, and perhaps she could truly enter the ranks of first-tier actors with this film.

That would truly make him happy for her.

However, it mainly depended on her performance in this movie.

If she performed well and won an award like Best Supporting Actress or Best Newcomer, then she would truly soar to great heights with unlimited prospects...
