Chapter 62

(Please vote for me, please vote for the Three Rivers, everyone, give me a Three Rivers vote!)

Luo Tai glanced at Sun Fat, who was eating opposite him, and then said into the phone, "I'll talk to you later."

"Is it inconvenient?" Liu Yifei asked from the other end.

"Uh-huh," Luo Tai nodded.

"Oh... Who are you with?" Liu Yifei asked further.

Luo Tai smiled and said, "The unlucky one."

"Unlucky one?" There was a brief silence on the other end, then a sudden laugh, "Is it the Sun Fat you mentioned?"

"Yes," Luo Tai replied.

"Uh-huh, okay, tonight... we'll talk again," Liu Yifei said.

"Alright," Luo Tai said and hung up the phone.

"Whose call was that?" Sun Fat looked up and asked, "Your voice was so gentle, it must be a girl!"

Luo Tai put away his phone, picked up his chopsticks, and put a peanut in his mouth, chewing as he said, "Liu Yifei."

"Ha!" Sun Fat laughed, shaking his head, "You, after attending one signing event, you've become her fan? Last time you said I was a brain-dead fan. Now what? I told you, taking you to the signing event was definitely right."

"Don't you believe me?" Luo Tai asked with a smile.

"Alright, alright, I believe you..." Sun Fat said, drinking his wine, "People need to have dreams, right? Soon, Liu Shishi will call me."

Luo Tai smiled bitterly and said, "Do as you please, anyway, I won't lie to you."

Sun Fat paused, looked at Luo Tai carefully, then reached across the table and touched Luo Tai's forehead, saying, "You're really something."

"Do you believe me now?" Luo Tai asked.

"Now you can lie without blushing, and so naturally, no one can see any pretense. How did you develop such mental fortitude? You really became a brain-dead fan of Liu Yifei? But a few days ago, you didn't like her much, right?" Sun Fat asked, frowning slightly.

"Damn!" Luo Tai rolled his eyes and said, "Forget it, maybe one day I'll bring her in front of you, then you'll believe me."

Sun Fat shrugged and said, "Alright, be ambitious! If you can bring Liu Yifei to me, I'll bring Liu Shishi to you!"

Luo Tai smiled and asked, "Weren't you always obsessed with Liu Yifei? Why are you now obsessed with Liu Shishi?"

"Ah..." Sun Fat sighed, "I'm obsessed with both. I watched 'Bu Bu Jing Xin' at home these past two days. Wow, that girl is so beautiful."

Luo Tai shook his head and said, "You watch such brain-dead palace dramas?"

"Bored, you know." Sun Fat said, "As a young, restless boy, fantasizing about these new-generation stars isn't too much, right?" He closed his eyes and made a dreamy expression.

Luo Tai paused, looked at Sun Fat, and said very seriously, "Actually, I used to think these fantasies were boring, but now I don't. This world has no fantasies, only dreams. Fatso, our dreams will definitely come true!"

"Ha." Sun Fat laughed, looking at Luo Tai and said, "I bet you had a successful date the day before yesterday. Otherwise, I can't explain why you've become so poetic. I tell you, I'm good at reading people. Your current state can only be from being in love."

"Bullshit, you haven't even been in love," Luo Tai said.

"I haven't, but I've seen pigs run. I tell you, people can hide anything, but not their feelings!" Sun Fat said.

"Alright, alright." Luo Tai raised his glass and said, "Let's not talk about dating. Let's finish this and go home to sleep."

"Ah, alright!" Sun Fat raised his glass hesitantly and drank it down.

"Look at you, why so melancholy?" Luo Tai said.

Sun Fat put down his glass and said, "Go home... go online... watch porn... sleep... go to work tomorrow... Tai, we're wasting our youth!! I'm really tired of this life, I feel so suppressed..." He poured himself another glass and drank it down before Luo Tai could speak.

"What do you want to do?" Luo Tai asked.

"I... I really want to do something great, even if I fail, it's better than this half-dead life. Damn!! Tell me, can this be called living? We're just surviving. We're just the lowest cockroaches in the food chain!! Cockroaches, you understand? I'm really serious..." At this point, Sun Fat's eyes were a bit red, possibly from the alcohol, making him particularly sentimental today.

Luo Tai slowly frowned and said to Sun Fat, "Fatso... if... if you had some money, what would you do? I'm serious."

"That depends on how much." Sun Fat said.

"1 million." Luo Tai said.

Sun Fat was stunned, looking at Luo Tai and said, "From the way you talk, it seems you have 1 million? Impossible, impossible."

"Come on, just spit it out. I'm saying if..." Luo Tai said.

"Alright, if I had 1 million..." Sun Fat said, "I wouldn't buy a house... 1 million... not much, but it's still money... I can't really say right now, but opening a restaurant seems pretty reliable, what do you think?"

"You're set on opening a restaurant? How are you such a foodie?" Luo Tai said.

"Not really... see, 1 million isn't enough for something big, and for something small... it's not worth it compared to working. Anyway, that's all I can think of." Sun Fat said.

"Forget it, think of something else," Luo Tai waved his hand and said.

"Damn, it's like you really have 1 million. Are we planning a business today?" Sun Fat said.

Luo Tai smiled, waved to the waiter, and said to Sun Fat, "I bought a lottery ticket, I think I'll win! Waiter, check out."

"I'll pay, I'll pay, we agreed the other day that I would treat you..."

While he was speaking, Luo Tai had already quickly paid the bill and said, "Wait until you're successful, then think about what to do. I told you, I really think I'll win the lottery. Alright, let's go!"

Luo Tai stood up, straightened his clothes, and waved to Sun Fat.

Sun Fat was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "You're really a weirdo!"

After leaving the restaurant, they parted ways, and Luo Tai returned home. He took off his coat and the first thing he did was call Liu Yifei.

"You finally called?" Liu Yifei said when the call connected.

"Ah, you called me, right? I really didn't expect you to contact me," Luo Tai said.

"Of course, we're teammates. By the way, the movie you went to," Liu Yifei asked.

"Alright, have you seen 'Wanted'?" Luo Tai asked.

"What?" Liu Yifei exclaimed, "You... you met Angelina Jolie, and... the bullets can turn... My God, that's so cool..."

"Hey, don't be so surprised," Luo Tai said, lying on the bed and laughing, "The character in the movie isn't Angelina Jolie, it's Fugus."

"Right, right, I forgot... Oh... How was it... Did you gain a lot?" Liu Yifei asked.

"Not bad, I saved Fugus, she didn't die..." Luo Tai said.

The other end of the phone let out a big sigh, then said, "Luo Tai, Luo Tai, you're so cool, are you the son of God? I really want to see you and talk all night."

"Hehe," Luo Tai laughed and said, "I think we shouldn't meet easily, because... this isn't a movie. We both have our own lives and careers."

The phone was silent for a moment, then a voice came through, "Luo Tai... come to the capital and find me. I've thought about it a lot. If you join my team, we can see each other every day."

Luo Tai thought for a moment and said, "What can I do if I go to you? Be your personal bodyguard? Or your assistant? I don't understand the entertainment industry, and... that's not what I want."

"What do you want to do? I think you shouldn't be an electrician anymore, Luo Tai. I've told you, you're a piece of unpolished jade, you can't waste your youth!" Liu Yifei said.

"I want to start my own business," Luo Tai said.

The phone was silent for a moment, then said, "Good, I support you. Have you decided what to do?"

"Not yet, I talked to Sun Fat tonight, and he wants to open a restaurant," Luo Tai said.

"Open a restaurant?" The phone paused, "The food industry is very competitive, and if you want to open a big restaurant, the initial investment is huge..."

"I don't know myself, I don't understand business. I need to think about it carefully, but I'll definitely tell you when I decide," Luo Tai said.

"Alright, definitely tell me."

"By the way, what... what are you busy with these days?" Luo Tai asked.

"Oh, nothing much, I'm preparing for two talk shows in a few days," Liu Yifei said.

"What shows?"

"One is 'Ruyu Youyue,' the other is 'Feichang Jingli.'"

"Wow, great, these are the hottest talk shows. Xiao Liu, you're already a super star," Luo Tai said.

"Hehe, it would be great if you could join me," Liu Yifei said.

"Me? Don't joke around," Luo Tai said, "What would I do? Kick Ruyu with my powerful leg?"

"Ha ha," Liu Yifei laughed, then asked, "By the way, when are you going to the movie again?"

"In two days."

"Heaven, even the old immortal doesn't let you rest?"

"Who knows? But it's okay, there's a time difference," Luo Tai said.

"Uh-huh, you... take care, and think more about what you want to do in reality. After all, this is your life... Oh... my mom is calling me, let's talk later," Liu Yifei said.

"Alright, talk to you later," Luo Tai said and hung up the phone. He lay on his back, looking at the ceiling, thinking about what he wanted to do.

Two days passed quickly. When the time came, Luo Tai prepared and pressed the extraction button at home. The watch spun rapidly, "Ding, congratulations, you've drawn 'The Food God,' now entering directly..."
