Rebirth of the Little Actor Chapter 4 – In his last life……they didn’t even say goodbye properly.
On the other end of the phone, Su Yiran was choked. He didn’t expect An Xing to listen to his words, not only did he not regret it, but he was even smug. But at the same time, a strong jealousy rose in the bottom of his heart.
That’s right, he was jealous of An Xing, from the first time he met him.
Until now Su Yiran remembers that on the day his freshman year began, his parents sent him to the dormitory, and were urging him to make good relations with his classmates in school. Because this is the best art university in Tang City, to be able to enter this school to read art majors, in addition to the general admission, either they are extremely talented to be admitted, or their families have the money and power to get a recommendation.
He was just an ordinary admission student, his family was average, and he was not extremely talented. And the moment An Xing stepped into the dormitory, Su Yiran decided that this carefree young master must have been stuffed in by a powerful and wealthy family.
His judgment is seldom wrong, but how could he have thought that the two years he had spent in the same dormitory after that, he realized that An Xing himself was also extremely talented.
Good looks, good family, good talent, An Xing is confident and cheerful, and his personality is also very good. As long as there is An Xing around, he is the brightest star in the crowd, attracting everyone’s attention, but he himself is not aware of it. How could Su Yiran not be jealous of such an An Xing?
If he were An Xing, of course he wouldn’t foolishly go to be an ordinary salesman of An Ning Jewelry.
“Isn’t it nice to be a crown prince? It’s tiring to act as someone humble!”
On the other side of the phone, An Xing’s carefree voice was still ringing.
“Tomorrow I will leave the marketing department and go directly to the design department ah! Yiran, aren’t you very happy for me?”
“…… Yes, yes, huh, that’s good.”
An Xing was satisfied to hear Su Yiran’s gnashing laughter and smacked his lips in pleasure.
It wasn’t that he was bragging, his family An Ning Jewelry was able to be at the forefront of the country, and that was because innovation had been put at a strategic level. The design department will launch several new product lines every year for different customer categories, and all the products are under copyright. The design department of An Ning Jewelry is the first choice of employment for all designers who love jewelry design in China.
Su Yiran didn’t like him but wanted to be friends with him, it was definitely for the purpose of entering An Ning Jewelry’s design department.
Unfortunately, Su Yiran is only a junior this year, his own talent is not outstanding, and he can only use his crooked mind to enter the design department. The only thing he can do is beg An Hao or An Xing, but An Hao can’t speak in the design department at all, and An Xing ……
An Xing: “What a pity, Yiran, I also begged my father for a long time to get into the design department, so I can’t bring you in too. But I’ll learn from those design masters! After school starts, I’ll tell you about it!”
It’s weird.
Su Yiran’s laughter became even more fake, “Oh, okay, thank you for remembering me ah An An.”
“You’re welcome.” An Xing yawned, “Then I’m hanging up, last night my cousin caused me to stay up all night. Now I’m so tired, I have to rest.”
Su Yiran could do nothing, he could only say a few words telling An Xing to have a good rest, and then helplessly hung up the phone.
After sleeping until night, An Xing opened his eyes and stayed there for a while.
The familiar bedroom was quiet, and it was already dark outside the half-closed window, and everything that happened in the daytime seemed like a beautiful dream.
An Xing slowly took his cell phone and tapped the screen.
The date was a month before the truth came to light.
All of this was not a dream, he was really reborn and returned.
The room was quiet and silent, An Xing sat up on his back and ran to the door to look downstairs. An Zhaoming had already returned from work, pulling Shen Ying’s hand, smiling and whispering something.
“Dad!”
An Xing called out, and then he saw that in the warm yellow light, An’s father and mother looked up and looked over, and when their eyes touched him, they revealed a gentle and loving smile, and for a moment, his nose was sour, and he wanted to shed tears.
In his last life …… they didn’t even say goodbye properly.
This time, he would definitely not let them be that sad.
The teenager sniffled and pushed down the tears that were filling his eyes, and flew downstairs to the living room. The family gathered around the dining table, joked and ate dinner, and then wandered around the villa area together to digest their food.
By the next day, An Xing swaggered down from the family car with Father An, and first returned to the marketing department to pick up his personal belongings, ready to carry them to the design department.
“An Xing ah, you’re moving out today?”
Yang Yong tapped An Xing’s shoulder from behind and An Xing answered with a smile.
“Yeah Brother Yang, I’ll go to the design department in a while!”
“It’s quite good, when you showed me those design drawings, I thought you drew them beautifully!” The man encouragingly patted the teenager’s small shoulders, “Cheer up! When the jewelry you design is produced, I’ll personally help you sell it!”
An Xing laughed out loud all of a sudden. During the week he came to the marketing department, An Hao deliberately left him out in the cold and didn’t let anyone bring him around, it was Yang Yong who took the initiative to take him out to meet customers and study, teaching him all sorts of things he should learn in the workplace, and he was really grateful for that.
The two chatted and arrived at the marketing department, and the others were still a bit tangled up, but when they saw the teenager smiling and good-naturedly packing up his things, with his identity exposed just like before, they immediately surrounded them as well. There are even a few female coworkers with stupid hands, wanting to take advantage of the prince’s tender age to pinch the face first to have fun.
An Xing was chatting with his former coworkers when he saw An Hao walk in through the door. As soon as he came in, the lively atmosphere among the crowd suddenly went quite cold.
Seeing this scene, An Hao was expressionless and in a bad mood.
Many people present had witnessed yesterday’s scene, and after a night’s time, the whole company had spread the word. And as long as one had been in society, they wouldn’t be as stupid as An Xing, and would definitely be able to tell that what he did wasn’t done with good intentions.
This was not good for his reputation in the company. When he went back last night, he was severely criticized by his mother. So he was in a very bad mood now that he saw An Xing.
But even so, he still had to do something to remedy the situation. Otherwise, not only would the witty eldest uncle be alert, it would also not be conducive to his mother’s subsequent plans.
An Hao took a deep breath and went forward to look at An Xing.
“Are you sure you want to go to the design department? It’s already been a week of sticking around here, if you leave now, you’ll be halfway there.”
An Xing had an innocent face, “But I don’t fit in here.”
An Hao sighed softly, “I know that you felt too tired because you worked overtime the day before yesterday. But that’s how it is when the marketing department is busy, everyone has to take the initiative to work overtime, you’re not the only one that’s like that, I can’t afford to treat you special.”
An Xing: ……
An Xing was convinced. This is really a good “cousin”, he is about to leave but still wants to dig a hole for him.
Just listen to this, ‘Everyone has to work overtime, not just you’, as if he is the one who is guilty for not wanting to work overtime.
As for that! As for so much drama against him, an artistic otaku!
An Xing was furious, no more than anyone else. He entered the scene in a second, his eyes hesitant and pitiful, and he hugged the small box tightly and said weakly:
“But, dad doesn’t advocate ineffective overtime ah. If everyone often works overtime, cousin, you’d better reflect on your own leadership, right?”
“I think it’s not good to constantly occupy everyone’s off-duty time!”
Crowd: ……
An Hao: ……
An Hao was choked for a moment, not knowing how to retort, mainly because no one dared to say it in front of him before, ‘do not encourage overtime work, why do you ask us to work overtime’. He wanted the others to think that An Xing was being petty and didn’t like to work overtime, so he had to go to the design department, but now it has become a problem with his ability to cause his subordinates to work overtime!
He wanted to scold An Xing, but looking at the teenager’s look of gathering courage to refute himself, no matter what he said, it seemed like he was bullying people, and he only felt that his heart was suffocating.
An Xing smiled at the crowd, and when he saw that An Hao was still standing there expressionless, he hugged the small box and went around him, leaving happily.
In fact, he had always been very good at disliking people when he encountered unpleasant people or things outside, he just wouldn’t be that sharp-tongued and open-mouthed to poke them in the heart when he faced his family and friends. In his previous life, he hadn’t said those words, only because An Hao was his cousin and he was willing to tolerate them.
But the truth was, his forbearance would only make others feel that he was easy to bully, that he was stupid, and that he deserved it. Then since this was the case, An Xing did not want to be a good boy like in his previous life.
An Xing carried his personal belongings to the design department, and this time, Father An had long ago arranged for a secretary under his command to send him there, handing him over to a young designer under the design department.
“Good day, Teacher Xiao.”
An Xing obediently greeted. The young man in front of him had a bearded face with dark circles under his eyes, and was full of frustration when he looked at people, and at a glance, his temper was not something to be messed with.
Xiao Rui: “Little Prince came to experience life?”
The design department has a large studio where everyone has their own independent workstations. When Xiao Rui’s words landed, the corners of the mouths of the designers at the several surrounding workstations twitched.
An Xing was very well-behaved, “There is no prince in a socialist country. I’m here to study and learn.”
Xiao Rui’s face looked a little better and he hummed.
“Put the things there, follow me and work under me first.”
Although he looked fierce, he unexpectedly had a good temper ah. An Xing’s eyes lit up, he immediately put the things down smoothly and came over to circle around Xiao Rui.
The secretary who wanted to extricate himself but was suddenly useless: ……
The secretary pushed his glasses and left noiselessly.
Xiao Rui was young enough to have a workbench in the design department, his own ability was unquestionable. An Xing followed beside Xiao Rui, being directed around, looking busy all the time, but actually unknowingly, he had learned a lot. When he reacted to today’s harvest, he immediately looked at Xiao Rui with a face full of admiration.
Xiao Rui looked up and saw the youngster’s adoring little eyes, and the corner of his mouth twitched, feeling that this young master of the boss’s family was a bit silly.
“What are you waiting for, it’s noon, hurry up and go eat lunch!”
An Xing responded in high spirits.
“Teacher Xiao, wait for me, I’ll go to the bathroom!”
Xiao Rui impatiently sat down as An Xing hurriedly ran out.
This entire floor was occupied by the design department, and the bathroom was in a corner location. An Xing and Xiao Rui were supposed to be the last to prepare for lunch, and this floor was almost empty. Therefore, when An Xing rushed to the bathroom door, he didn’t expect that there were two people whispering inside.
What he didn’t expect even more was that the things those two people were talking about were also related to him.
“I think that young master is quite good, there are actually people saying that he is not Mr. An’s son!”
