Wang Hao enthusiastically agrees to a contract with Ye Chen to become a singer. Although his girlfriend Su Wanyi has reservations about Wang Hao, Ye Chen believes in his potential and his love for his girlfriend. Wang Hao signs the contract, grateful for the opportunity and Ye Chen's support, and leaves to share the good news.

After Ye Chen and Wang Hao signed the contract, Ye Chen called Su Wanyi, "Dear, are you finished there?"

"Hmm, almost," Su Wanyi replied.

"I’ve already signed the contract here, I’ll come over to see you now," Ye Chen said.

"Okay, but you might have to wait for me a bit," Su Wanyi replied.

"No problem, let’s talk when we meet," Ye Chen said before hanging up the phone.

Wang Hao hummed a little tune all the way out of the company; he couldn’t believe that he had signed with such a famous entertainment company.

Actually, he thought he sang quite well before, and he had approached several less formal entertainment companies, but was always turned away.

Wang Hao even thought about singing at a bar, but that didn’t work out either. He was really out of options and could only sing and beg at the overpass.

Although passersby pointed and laughed at him for being incapable, Wang Hao didn’t care, as long as he could save his girlfriend’s life, he’d do anything.

In fact, this was what touched Ye Chen the most.

Wang Hao rode a shared bike and rushed to the hospital, arriving at the ward with an excited expression, staring at his girlfriend lying in the hospital bed.

"Ah-Hao, why are you back?" Zhang Ying asked her boyfriend standing at the door.

"Xiaoying, I want to tell you some good news," Wang Hao said with a smile.

"What good news?" Zhang Ying asked with a puzzled expression.

"I’ve signed with Star Media Company, they’re going to train me to become a singer."

Then he continued, "Xiaoying, our good days are about to begin."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ying’s eyes widened in surprise. Yesterday, she heard Wang Hao say he was going to Star Media Company early today, and she’d been praying for her boyfriend the whole time.

She never thought he would sign with such a big media company; it’s truly a stroke of good fortune.

"Xiaoying, you won’t have to worry about your medical expenses anymore. Once your illness is cured, we’ll plan for marriage, buy a house, and bring our parents to live with us. What do you think?" Wang Hao asked excitedly.

The two people embraced each other, looking out the window, envisioning a bright future.

This future was given to them by Ye Chen, and Wang Hao had made up his mind to achieve great things, not only for himself but also to repay Ye Chen’s kindness.

"Secretary Song, come to the office for a moment," Ye Chen called Song Li.

"President Ye, I’ll be right there," Song Li replied happily.

Soon, Song Li arrived at the office door; since the door was open, she walked straight in.

"President Ye," Song Li called softly.

"Secretary Song, this is the contract signed with the new artist, take good care of it," Ye Chen handed the document to Song Li.

"Does President Su know?" Song Li asked.

She thought that since it was also Su Wanyi’s company, signing an artist was a big matter and must be informed to Su Wanyi.

Song Li was a person with strong principles, even if she liked Ye Chen, she would not mix work with personal feelings.

"Rest assured, I’ve already talked to President Su about it," Ye Chen said with a smile.

After hearing this, Song Li felt relieved.

"Alright, that’s it then, you can go busy yourself," Ye Chen said and then turned to walk toward the door.

Song Li thought she would have some alone time with Ye Chen, but didn’t expect him to leave so quickly.

"President Ye, won’t you stay a bit longer?" Song Li asked, looking at Ye Chen’s departing figure.

"No, I still have things to do," Ye Chen said.

At that moment, he had already walked out of the office.

Song Li watched Ye Chen’s back with longing, feeling very sad inside.

Ye Chen walked out of the company’s door and drove toward Su Wanyi’s company, dialing the phone downstairs.

"Honey, I’m here."

"Hubby, just come up first, I’m not finished here," Su Wanyi said with a helpless expression.

After parking the car, Ye Chen walked straight into the company towards Su Wanyi’s office.

At this time, the secretary walked towards the office, returning to fetch something as instructed by Su Wanyi.

"Mr. Ye, President Su is still in a meeting in the conference room, please wait here, do you need anything?" Su Wanyi’s secretary asked Ye Chen as he entered.

"It’s okay, I’ll just wait for her here, you go on with your work, don’t mind me," Ye Chen said with a smile.

After the secretary left, Ye Chen crossed his legs and sat comfortably on the sofa.

After all, this was his wife’s territory, so he was naturally more relaxed here.

While waiting for Su Wanyi, Ye Chen was pondering how to train Wang Hao; after all, Wang Hao had no fame, and making him famous wasn’t easy.

He needed to have a detailed plan to make Wang Hao known to people.

Even this point alone was not easy.

But Ye Chen already had a plan in his mind.

As he was thinking seriously, his phone suddenly rang, breaking his train of thought.

He glanced at it and saw it was a call from Wang Hao; it was really a case of speaking of Cao Cao and Cao Cao appears.

Ye Chen was also puzzled as to why Wang Hao was calling him at this time; hadn’t everything been discussed already? Could it be he was having second thoughts?

But Ye Chen wasn’t worried at all, as Wang Hao couldn’t afford the penalty for breaking the contract, so he wouldn’t do such a thing.

After all, Ye Chen had given him an opportunity that many people dream of; how could he easily give up?

Though Wang Hao sang well, many others sang better; he was just lucky to have met Ye Chen and got this chance.

It was like a good steed meeting its match.

No matter what Wang Hao wanted, Ye Chen pressed the answer button.

"Wang Hao, what’s up?" Ye Chen asked.

"Mr. Ye, I do have something I want to talk to you about," Wang Hao said from the other side.

"What’s that?" Ye Chen asked casually.

"Here’s the thing, Mr. Ye. Didn’t you give me a bank card last night?" Wang Hao asked.

"Yes, is there a problem with the bank card?" Ye Chen asked puzzledly.

He thought the bank card shouldn’t have any issues, and it didn’t have a password, so Wang Hao could easily withdraw money.

But hearing Wang Hao mention the bank card made him naturally feel puzzled.

"Mr. Ye, don’t misunderstand, the bank card has no problems, it’s just that I want to return it to you," Wang Hao said directly.

Saying this, Ye Chen became even more confused, thoroughly bewildered.

Hearing no response from him, Wang Hao continued, "Mr. Ye, I feel that you’ve already helped me a lot, now I have a job and income, and I can completely earn Xiaoying’s medical expenses, so I’ve decided to give this card back to you."

When Wang Hao told Zhang Ying about signing with Star Media Company, the two of them decided to return the card to Ye Chen.
