The Aloof Little Puppy Is Super Obedient - Chapter 22

Chu Jingtian was truly feeling helpless now.

The events of the past few days had already been quite heavy, and he never expected Su Jingyang to drop such a bombshell on him at this time. Looking at Su Jingyang’s determination to enter the entertainment industry, his heart ached a little. He decided to speak frankly with Su Jingyang about how murky the waters of the industry could be.

If the entertainment circle weren’t so complex, he would be more than willing to let Su Jingyang enter it. However, the matters within that world were far too complicated, and it simply wasn’t something an ordinary person could navigate. Su Jingyang was inherently a simple person; if he joined the industry, he would surely encounter many difficulties.

Chu Jingtian looked at Su Jingyang’s innocent face and reached out to pat him on the back. “If you’ve really thought it through and are certain you want to enter the entertainment industry, then let me know. Do not be impulsive or join things randomly. Every choice you make affects the rest of your life.”

Chu Jingtian sighed as he spoke. If Su Jingyang didn’t join this industry, he would undoubtedly be a prominent figure in the elite circles of the capital, a core member of high society. He never expected the “Crown Prince” to be willing to join the entertainment world.

Chu Jingtian looked at Su Jingyang’s current naive demeanor and sighed again. There was nothing more he could say, so he simply turned and left. The only thing he could do now was to let Su Jingyang think it over properly. Chu Jingtian certainly couldn’t force a decision. After all, this was Su Jingyang’s choice; if he chose for him, Su Jingyang might grow to hate him in the future. Therefore, the best thing he could do now was to focus on his own professional duties.

Standing behind him, Su Jingyang watched Chu Jingtian’s departing back and sighed helplessly. He didn’t know how to speak. Seeing Chu Jingtian handle so many things at work made his heart ache. If he became an artist under Chu Jingtian’s management now, Chu Jingtian could save a lot of effort.

As for why, it was because Su Jingyang’s core focus would be entirely on him, and others would be pushed aside. At the thought of this, the corners of Su Jingyang’s lips slowly curled up. The idea of being able to stay by Chu Jingtian’s side in a few days was a wonderful prospect for Su Jingyang. Having the chance to accompany his brother was a rare and precious opportunity.

In the room, Chu Jingtian sat on the sofa drinking coffee and sighed helplessly. Thinking back to what Su Jingyang had just said to him, he felt a deep sense of concern. Ever since his divorce from Zhou Nian, his only goal was to ensure the people around him lived good lives and didn’t have to experience such hardships.

He had watched Su Jingyang grow up. The thought of Su Jingyang entering the entertainment industry made him worry, as joining that world meant facing various storms. For instance, if an actor didn’t perform well, they would be scolded by the public as a “resource hire.” Even if they did perform well, they might still be criticized. Regardless of how well one did in the entertainment industry, it often came down to one sentence: “So what? In my eyes, it doesn’t look good.”

Thinking about the many strange occurrences in that circle, Chu Jingtian felt even more helpless. The fact that Su Jingyang wanted to involve himself in such matters was a real dilemma for him. The most important thing for him was his concern for Su Jingyang; he didn’t want him to face all of this. He didn’t know if Su Jingyang was psychologically prepared to handle it.

However, he knew that no matter what situation Su Jingyang faced, he always looked for the best in things and wouldn’t get too nervous. Still, thinking about the dangerous nature of the industry made him worry, especially since the waters were so deep. Even he couldn’t fully control the situation. If Su Jingyang joined the industry now, he could already imagine how those people would scold him.

Troubled by these thoughts, he hadn’t made much progress on his work when a knock came at the door. Chu Jingtian called out for the person to enter. As he looked up, he saw Su Jingyang walk in.

Seeing Su Jingyang, he looked at him with a questioning gaze. “Have you thought it through? Give me a definitive answer. I want to tell you about the importance of these matters. If you choose to join the entertainment industry now, you must be prepared to accept the bad things you will encounter there.”

Chu Jingtian spoke with a smile, slowly explaining everything. “Come here, sit opposite me and tell me properly: why do you want to join the entertainment industry? You have to tell me all the reasons; otherwise, I won’t agree to it.”

Chu Jingtian set aside his documents and looked seriously at Su Jingyang. Su Jingyang smiled. “Brother, you know how I am. I wouldn’t be prepared for this if I hadn’t thought it through. The reason I want to join the entertainment industry now is to experience what life is like there. It will be convenient for me later when I inherit some of the family business, and it will be easier to sign artists and cooperate with companies.”

Su Jingyang smiled as he quickly provided these reasons. He knew Chu Jingtian would ask these questions, so to prevent him from worrying, he explained his motives clearly. Chu Jingtian nodded, surprised that Su Jingyang could handle these questions so easily.

“Fine. Since that’s the case, let me ask you another question. Have you considered that you will be mocked by some people when you enter the industry? If your acting isn’t good, you’ll be criticized. How will you face that?”

For an ordinary person entering the entertainment industry, their psychological resilience must be strong. It’s impossible for them to break down just because fans scold them a few times.

Su Jingyang’s smile grew even brighter as he listened. “Brother, you know my capabilities. Why should I be afraid if I face these storms? Since I’ve chosen this path, I have to move forward.”

Su Jingyang spoke with a smile. As the “Crown Prince” of the capital circle, handling these matters was quite simple for him, and he wasn’t flustered at all. Chu Jingtian, seeing Su Jingyang’s confident expression, smiled back. He hadn’t expected Su Jingyang to be so calm in the face of these issues.

“I didn’t expect you to be so unfazed. But I still need to tell you one thing: once you enter the entertainment industry, you must pay attention to its inner workings. Also, the contract I’ll give you is only for a few years. If you don’t make a splash in the industry, you can retire. If you do, I won’t say anything more.”

Chu Jingtian laid out all these points, believing that if Su Jingyang didn’t have status or a network of resources, he wouldn’t be able to rise quickly in the industry. He stated these things in advance. Su Jingyang listened and nodded.

“Brother, just trust me. If I enter the entertainment industry, I will surely master my craft. Brother, you know how I am…”

Su Jingyang went on with a lot of chatter. Chu Jingtian sat opposite him, watching him speak with a touch of helplessness, not knowing what to say. Seeing Su Jingyang talk so much, he wore a helpless smile. Sometimes, listening to his younger brother ramble was a pleasant thing. In the past, the happiest times they spent together involved sharing their grand dreams for the future. He never expected that Su Jingyang, who had so many dreams, would think of entering the entertainment industry.

Seeing Su Jingyang’s determination, he maintained a calm attitude and didn’t want to say much more. After all, Su Jingyang had already made his choice; if he interfered too much, Su Jingyang wouldn’t be satisfied. However, thinking about Su Jingyang’s chatter, he didn’t feel comfortable handing him over to another agent. He looked seriously at Su Jingyang.

“Which agent in the company do you want? Tell me.” Chu Jingtian looked at the documents in his hand, ignoring Su Jingyang’s ongoing chatter.

Su Jingyang sat there and looked at Chu Jingtian’s indifferent expression, pouting as he spoke. “If I want an agent, I only want one who is good to me, won’t be mean, and won’t…”

Listening to Su Jingyang’s numerous demands, Chu Jingtian felt a bit of a headache and looked at him helplessly. “Why do you have so many requirements? Then, do you want me to be your agent?”

Hearing Su Jingyang’s endless talk, he simply dismissed the idea of Su Jingyang choosing from the other agents. Clearly, as a newcomer, Su Jingyang didn’t know how to choose an agent at all.

He had no choice but to become the manager for this brat. Letting Su Jingyang navigate the entertainment industry alone would be a bad idea. He was afraid Su Jingyang would encounter all sorts of messy situations in that world.
