Ren has a small apartment Uptown. It's a birthday gift from Grandpa last year.

He can't let the shou live alone in his dilipidated home.

In the original novel, the next sexual harassment will be scheduled next week.

It's hard for characters in the book to escape fate. Unless someone from outside inteferes. Like an agent.

Ren looks at the fully furnished place. Not bad. Almost like four stars hotel room.

The fridge is empty. No foods in the cupboard.

Cheng Yi opens the luxurious looking wardrobe. He feels like a sinner when he puts his worn out clothes in it.

He chooses a guest bedroom. Leaving the Master bedroom for Ren.

The door doesn't close well. Cheng Yi takes a peek. Ren is rolling in bed like a kid. The guy looks mature and yet he retains his childish heart.

He must make a sound because Ren rises from bed.

He asks, "Are you hungry? Let's go out and eat something."

"Okay."

They are eating in a family diner nearby. Cheng Yi is surprised. He thought someone like Ren would choose Michelin restaurants.

The agent isn't a picky eater. He eats everything in his plate clean. A habit after suffering in previous book worlds.

Ren asks, "Are you going back to school?"

Cheng Yi is silent. Financial problems forced him to drop out of school. He had to work to pay hospital bills.

Ren secretly asks, "068, what should I do?"

"Contact uncle Wen. Tell him you wanna train someone to be an actor. Ask for suitable trainings."

"Okay."

Ren calls his previous agent, "Uncle, it's me. No, I don't want to go back singing. It's over for me. Yes, I'm good. Okay."

He listens for a while. The ex-agent keeps insisting he returns as a singer.

Ren protests, "No, no future for that. Say, I found a good seedling. I think he has a good future as Movie Emperor. No, don't laugh. I'm serious."

He listens to the golden agent for few minutes.

Ren comments, "No. I found him. Don't want to hand him over to an agency. Just give me the master plan for training an actor."

"Is he handsome?" asks Uncle Wen.

"Of course. I'm a face con, remember?"

"You aren't grooming your future gong, are you?"

"Uncle! He is underage! Don't make fun of me. I've changed!"

The conversation ends few minutes later. Uncle Wen sends him address of an acting school.

"Hmm, you need to register to an acting school."

He checks on a list sent into his phone.

"What else? New haircut. Facial treatments."

Ren takes him to his regular barbershop.

He orders, "Make him look fresh and handsome. Give him creambath or something."

"Okay."

Cheng Yi endures the treatments for three hours. After facial treatments and a new haircut, he looks totally different. More good looking.
