CHAPTER 191: CHAPTER 66: SNACKS THAT CAPTURE HEARTS_2

As someone in the industry, Sun Mulin immediately recognized the identity of the handsome man leading the group—currently the most popular film emperor in the entertainment circle, Chen Zhiqing.

Speaking of which, Chen Zhiqing and Sun Mulin have some connections. Chen Zhiqing debuted in the same period as Sun Mulin, but unlike Sun Mulin who mixed in film, television, and music, Chen Zhiqing was dedicated solely to movies.

Unfortunately, back then, Chen Zhiqing was just a newcomer without talent, spending over twenty years playing minor roles in different crews. During that time, he could barely make ends meet. On the other hand, Sun Mulin, who had a smooth start thanks to many connections, was already famous across most of the interstellar realm.

Although Sun Mulin’s success was greatly aided by connections, his talent played a significant role too. Chen Zhiqing, lacking acting talent, could only strive silently, taking ten, twenty, thirty, or even forty years to surpass Sun Mulin.

Perhaps Sun Mulin had total advantages in other areas to overshadow Chen Zhiqing, but within the small circle of films, Chen Zhiqing undoubtedly shares the same status as Sun Mulin.

Nonetheless, Chen Zhiqing and Sun Mulin have a rather good relationship, simply because Sun Mulin had a film script he felt was unsuitable for him but perfect for Chen Zhiqing, who was playing a corpse in the same crew. Thus, he recommended Chen Zhiqing to the film’s director.

The result? Naturally, Chen Zhiqing relied on this film to prove his capabilities, going viral since then and embarking on a new journey after decades of struggle.

Initially, Sun Mulin simply thought Chen Zhiqing suited the role, so he followed his instinct and recommended Chen Zhiqing. However, Chen Zhiqing remained grateful to Sun Mulin.

Chen Zhiqing feels that Sun Mulin is like his patron; otherwise, who knows, he might still be in some crew playing a corpse today!

Du Xixi and Ke Lian heard the commotion, and as they stood up intending to greet him, they saw Chen Zhiqing look at Sun Mulin in shock and then rush to him excitedly, saying, "Brother Sun, you’re here too!"

"I came with my brother and sister-in-law to participate in a variety show." Sun Mulin clearly wasn’t used to Chen Zhiqing’s enthusiastic attitude, feeling a bit awkward, he adjusted himself and stood up from the sofa, "I’ve said just use my name; no need for such respectful language."

Based on their film industry experience, Sun Mulin and Chen Zhiqing could absolutely be peers, but due to the "film script" incident, Chen Zhiqing seems to have always regarded Sun Mulin with respect like a big brother.

Seeing Sun Mulin a bit unwilling, Chen Zhiqing smiled sincerely, "Brother Sun, my brother and I grew up in an orphanage without parents. Your help makes you like a second father to me! How can I not respect you?"

Everyone: ...revered father?

Sun Mulin: ...reluctantly becoming a father?

Chen Zhichen: ...having extra parent?

Ke Lian and Du Xixi watched their brother’s speechless expression and found it quite amusing that someone would overlook them and focus on the people beside them.

But while Chen Zhiqing overlooked Du Xixi and Ke Lian, completely absorbed in thought about "Brother Sun", the couple with Chen Zhiqing did not overlook them.

Chen Zhichen, Chen Zhiqing’s brother, entered hand in hand with his wife of many years, not overly intimate but full of warmth and tacit understanding in their gestures.

Unlike Chen Zhiqing, they immediately noticed the outstanding appearance of Du Xixi and Ke Lian, with four thoughts rapidly passing through their minds.

One—these two people are really good-looking.

Two—these two people look familiar.

Three—these two people are familiar, resembling Marshal and Marshal’s Wife.

Four—these two are indeed Marshal and Marshal’s Wife!

Chen Zhichen held his wife Lin Jie’s hand, knowing his brother was unlikely to leave his benefactor soon, approached to greet Du Xixi and Ke Lian, "Hello to both of you, I’m Chen Zhichen, and this is my wife Lin Jie."

"Hello, I’m Du Xixi, just call me Xixi." Compared to the slightly colder Ke Lian, Du Xixi was much more approachable, so she naturally initiated the conversation with the Chen couple, "This is my husband Ke Lian, you can just call him Ke Lian."

"How can that be, we should call you Marshal’s Wife and Marshal!" As common people faced with Du Xixi and Ke Lian’s imposing presence, they couldn’t help being a bit timid, with their words showing some apprehension.
