Shu Dongyue: "I'd like to give it a try too."
Daqi: "Who's the director?"
Shu Dongyue: "Zhang Zhicheng, the great director Zhang!"
Daqi exclaimed in surprise, "It's him? He would come to our school to ask for actors? He could choose from Beijing Film Academy, Shanghai Theatre Academy, or Central Academy of Drama. Why does he have to come to us?"
Dear readers, I must make a special point. Zhang Zhicheng is a fairly well-known director in China; I've seen many of his urban dramas. He has also won numerous national awards.
Daqi continued, "Dongyue, do you really want to go?"
Shu Dongyue nodded and said, "It's an opportunity, let's give it a try. Do you agree to let me sign up?"
Daqi nodded and said, "I agree. Yue'er, can you tell me why you want to act?"
Shu Dongyue: "I don't think it's possible for me to become a news anchor at a good TV station. If I have the opportunity, I should find a way out as soon as possible. I can accept acting too, it's just entertainment, right?"
After hearing this, Daqi sighed and said, "The entertainment industry is also very complicated, not as glamorous as it seems on the surface. You make your own decision, I won't stop you. If you need any help, just tell me."
Shu Dongyue nodded and smiled slightly, saying, "Thank you, big brother!"
Daqi thought to himself: Let Dongyue do as she pleases, as long as she's happy.
That evening, Daqi went to the library to chat with Director Bai. Bai Tiannan hadn't seen Daqi in a long time, and he was very happy, even making tea for Daqi. He took out a package of Jinhua shortbread and said to Daqi, "My friend brought back some Jinhua shortbread. Here, have a taste."
Daqi sipped his tea and picked up a shortbread to eat. As he ate, he said, "Teacher Bai, this is delicious! What have you been up to lately?"
Bai Tiannan: "What can I do? The school has changed so many leaders lately. The new Principal Wang holds meetings every other day, always calling us middle-level managers in. It's so annoying. I'm on duty today and I'm feeling down because nobody's talking to me. You haven't come to see me in ages, have you?"
Daqi laughed heartily and said, "Teacher Bai, you are a great benefactor. How could I dare to come here every few days?"
Bai Tiannan: "Look at you, all smooth talk. I can't afford to be expensive anymore. It seems the school is interested in transferring me to a different position."
Daqi asked in surprise, "What did I do to you?"
Bai Tiannan: "They want me to be the director of the editorial department of the journal of Binhai Media College."
Daqi shook his head after hearing this and said, "Professor Bai, I am a student. But I also know that being the editor-in-chief of this academic journal is meaningless. It's just about managing the articles written by the teachers. It's not as carefree as being the director of the library."
Bai Tiannan: "I knew you little brat would have a different opinion. Tell me, feel free to speak."
Daqi: "This...this...am I really being honest?"
Bai Tiannan: "Hey, Tong Daqi, why are you being so polite with me? You're a student, children shouldn't speak without thinking!"
Daqi: "Professor Bai, I've become a child. Haha, but it doesn't matter if I'm a child in front of you. However, I just want to say that you should never become the editor-in-chief of some damn academic journal."
Bai Tiannan: "Why? How so?"
Daqi: "Isn't Professor Zhong the retired editor-in-chief of the journal? I know what's going on inside. Your library is practically the school's independent kingdom. You're a local tyrant here; if you say something in the library, everyone will give you face. But in the journal, I don't think anyone would listen to you no matter what you say. Professor Bai, this is just my personal opinion, it might not be right. But then again, we're all contributing to education, it's the same everywhere. But personally, I think it's better for you to be the librarian, that way you can contribute more to education. If you really went to the journal, you'd be dealing with teachers all day, and every day some leader or some leader would recommend some lousy article for you to publish, I bet you'd be really frustrated!"
After hearing this, Bai Tiannan laughed loudly and said, "You little rascal, where did you learn that? How do you know so many secrets about the school?"
Daqi said, “You can judge by the articles published in our *Journal of Binhai Media College*. Professor Bai, I'm not saying this lightly, but are there any good articles? I don't rule out the possibility that there might be one or two good articles a year, but the vast majority are just garbage, completely useless. I know that the country now considers academic papers as scientific research achievements. In fact, most of the articles mentioned above are just to cheat the government out of money or to pass the school's assessment of university teachers. Don't even mention our school; I don't understand science and engineering papers, so I won't comment. Let's talk about the humanities and social sciences. What about the journals of those prestigious universities? I conservatively estimate that 90% are garbage articles, and maybe 10% can be considered scientific research achievements. Professor Bai, if you go there, you'll be dealing with garbage every day. Is that meaningful? The work in the library is much more practical, direct, and rewarding.”
Bai Tiannan: "So you've been observing my library too. Alright, kids say what's so great about this job?"
Daqi shook his head and said, "Teacher Bai, please spare my child. It's best if I don't tell."
Bai Tiannan: "Children speak without thinking, children speak without thinking!"
Daqi remained tight-lipped about his work at the library because he respected Bai Tiannan, but he was also well aware of the enormous benefits of working in the library. He only said, "Teacher Bai, let's talk about our library's electronic reading room. So many students go online every day, and it's only one yuan an hour. Let's say we have 500 computers operating for 5 hours a day. Hehe, the revenue from that is enough to give every teacher in the library a small bonus at the end of the year."
Bai Tiannan laughed, "You little rascal, I really don't know who taught you so much. Actually, I might as well tell you directly. The relationships in the library are particularly complicated, especially among the staff. The people who actually have a background in library management, haha, are less than a quarter of them."

Section Reading 275
"Being the librarian is exhausting! You know how it is; this library is a den of iniquity. All sorts of relatives of leaders keep trying to get things done here. They don't know how to do their jobs, and they don't want to, and I can't really say anything. Tell me, isn't that incredibly annoying?"
Daqi laughed and said, "Teacher Bai, it's good that they don't do it. Let someone who knows how to do it do it. If all else fails, hire a few temporary workers."
Bai Tiannan: "Temporary workers, I'm just worried they'll get upset. They're fine when they first start working. But later on, seeing others getting paid several times more without doing any work, will they feel comfortable? Sigh, it's tough, being the manager isn't easy!"
Daqi: "Even if it's difficult, it's better than being the editor-in-chief of a journal. Being the editor-in-chief would be easier for you, but I'm afraid it would make you sick from being idle. Professor Bai, just don't take the school's suggestion—to become the editor-in-chief of some damn journal. At worst, you can be the deputy director. The school can't just dismiss you completely, can they? The deputy director is better than the editor-in-chief!"
Bai Tiannan nodded and said, "It depends on what the school thinks. In short, I myself do not agree to be the director of the journal's editorial department."
Episode 56: Beautiful Policewoman
Daqi chatted with Bai Tiannan for a while before saying goodbye and returning to Baisha Apartment.
About a week later, Daqi had lunch with the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" in the cafeteria. Shu Dongyue said, "Master, I went to participate in the lead role selection and was chosen."
Daqi asked in surprise, "What do you mean? You've been chosen?"
Beibei said, "Dong Huoyue was chosen by Director Zhang to play a supporting role."
Xiaoling said, "Supporting roles are good too. They might get a chance to be the lead in the future."
Jiaxin said, "Wow, Yue'er, you're really amazing! Only two people were chosen from the whole school, one for the main role and one for a supporting role. You're so talented!"
Winter Moon: "You're lucky, aren't you? Master, are you happy?"
Daqi nodded and said, "As long as you like it, I have nothing to say. So who is the main character? Who from our school was chosen?"
Dongyue said, "There's a girl in the performing arts class of the art department. I heard she's a beauty. I haven't met her yet, but I'll meet her sooner or later."
Xiaoling: "Can someone who isn't beautiful be chosen? Just think about it with your ass."
Jiaxin: "I don't know why, but I just don't like that Director Zhang. I always feel like he's lecherous."
Beibei laughed and said, "Although you can't judge a book by its cover, I've heard that he's a rather unconventional director!"
Dongyue: "I just go to act, nothing else. To put it bluntly, I just want a job."
Daqi: "Yue'er, if you're only acting for the sake of making a living, then I won't agree. Because you're also my girlfriend, and I don't want you to suffer. But if you're acting out of interest, then I won't stop you."
Dongyue: "Master, you don't seem to really like me going to act?"
Daqi shook his head and said, "The entertainment industry is more complicated than you think. You should think it through."
Dongyue nodded and said softly, "Master, if you don't agree to me going, Yue'er won't go..."
Daqi didn't really like the idea of a beautiful girl like Shu Dongyue becoming a professional actress. He finally asked, "I won't interfere. Just answer me, do you like acting or are you just looking for a job? If it's for a job, what are you worried about? I can support you! Besides, you still have a chance to work at a TV station. You haven't graduated yet, the opportunity might come soon."
Xiaoling: "Yeah, Yue'er, you shouldn't go. Filming is so boring. The entertainment industry is really filthy these days."
Beibei: "Yue'er, how about you reconsider?"
Jiaxin remained silent, watching Dongyue and Daqi with curiosity. Shu Dongyue knew that Daqi didn't actually like her pursuing a career in the entertainment industry for a living. In short, Daqi disliked Shu Dongyue becoming an actress for a living; he felt he was perfectly capable of supporting her, and she didn't need to take this path in entertainment.
Daqi thought to himself: Dongyue, you're so insensible. Now that you're my woman, why are you still worrying about making a living?
That evening, Daqi and the "Four Beauties of Broadcasting" were watching TV at the Baisha Apartment. After a while, Xiaoling said to Daqi, "Master, the water's boiled, do you want to take a bath?"
Daqi nodded and said, "Yue'er, let's take a shower together." Daqi wanted to be alone with Dongyue for a while. Shu Dongyue nodded and walked hand in hand with Daqi into the bathroom.
Daqi said, "Yue'er, help me undress." Shu Dongyue smiled and helped him take off his clothes. After he finished, she also took off her clothes until she was naked. After Dongyue filled the tub with water, she and Daqi soaked in the hot water together.
Shu Dongyue rested her head on Daqi's shoulder. Daqi wrapped his arms around her slender waist, gently caressing her breasts, occasionally flicking her sensitive nipples with his fingers. Shu Dongyue let out a soft moan, and Daqi embraced her, kissing her passionately. After a long while, he finally released her lips and asked, "Yue'er, why do you always want to act? Do you want to become famous overnight?"
Shu Dongyue said, "Master... I... I really want to make money quickly so I can pay everyone back."
Daqi: "Who do you owe money to?"
Dongyue: "I feel like I owe Master, Xiaoling, Beibei, and Jiaxin so much. So..."
Daqi: "You're too burdened by worries. When did we ever say you owe us money, or that you owe anyone? We didn't say anything."
Fuyutsuki: "No, Master, I feel like I owe you all so much. Really..."
Daqi: "Aren't you my woman?"
Dongyue nodded and said, "Of course, I am of course my master's woman."
Daqi: "It's only natural for me to support you. Remember, you're not allowed to act. I don't want you to be an actress." Daqi felt it was best to clearly state his point of view—he didn't want Dongyue to act. He didn't want Shu Dongyue to enter the entertainment industry too early; he hoped she would at least follow a traditional path as a news anchor.
Dongyue nodded and said, "I don't think you'll let me go."
Daqi thought to himself: Dongyue, you're my woman, I won't let you go into that entertainment industry. The entertainment industry is a graveyard for beauties; how many actresses are truly "clean"? Hey, this time I'll be a dictator and won't let you go. Because you're not interested in acting. For the sake of making a living, it's unnecessary. I, Daqi, can support ten Shu Dongyues!
Daqi admitted he was a little selfish. He didn't want Dongyue to have any entanglements with other men. In the entertainment industry, how could there be no entanglements? He felt like a dictator. Including Dongyue, and even the sex slave Ma Chunlan, all his women belonged to him alone. He didn't want other men among his women. All his women could only have him as their only man, unless the woman chose to leave him.
Daqi: "If you really want to go, then go. I won't stop you!" Daqi was a little angry. He felt that Dongyue had hurt him.
Shu Dongyue quickly said, "No, Master... I... I won't go... really. Master, did Yue'er make you angry?"
Daqi said, "How can I not be angry? Sometimes I really don't understand you. Do you think I want you to be played by those directors? Director Zhang is a notorious lecher, I know him well. Teacher Zhong met him ten years ago, he specializes in playing with actresses."
Shu Dongyue: "Master... I... how could I dare to have anything with other men?"
Daqi: "When you go to film a movie, how many women don't have a relationship with the director, unless they don't want to be famous? Yue'er, you've disappointed me so much! You should leave, leave this place. I know you don't want to stay by my side anymore."
Shu Dongyue cried, "Master, I didn't. I just wanted to try it out because a lot of girls went. Master, you're the only one in my heart. If you don't let me go, I won't go. Really, I'll do whatever you say. Master, please don't send me away..."
Daqi was a little angry. He didn't want that lecherous director Zhang to have a chance to touch the beautiful Shu Dongyue. Daqi said domineeringly, "Yue'er, turn around." He stroked her cherry lips and pointed to his crotch. Shu Dongyue immediately turned her head and obediently brought her small mouth close to his crotch to please the man... Daqi reached out and slapped Dongyue's pretty buttocks hard, making her scream "Ah!" and even the object in her mouth fell out.
Daqi said coldly, "Raise it higher!" Shu Dongyue cried as she raised her buttocks high, knowing that Daqi was angry and punishing her. Daqi said sternly, "Did I tell you to spit it out?" Upon hearing this, Dongyue immediately put the object back in her mouth and continued to please the man.
Daqi decided to give this dazed woman a good beating. He raised his hand and slapped her three times in a row, "Slap—slap—slap—" The crisp, ear-piercing sound of slapping her buttocks rang out, and Dongyue screamed as she was hit, but she didn't dare to stop what she was doing. She didn't beg for mercy, she just cried.
Looking at her flushed buttocks, Daqi felt a pang of pity and said, "Yue'er, are you not convinced?" Shu Dongyue spat out what was in her mouth, turned around, and cried, "Master, Yue'er did something wrong and deserves to be punished!"
Daqi said, "I'm asking you, are you my woman?"
Shu Dongyue nodded and said, "Of course, of course, always!"
Daqi: "She's my woman, so behave yourself and don't even think about becoming some damn actress. I hate women becoming actresses." Actually, Daqi was just saying that out of anger. He just didn't want Dongyue to be taken advantage of by Director Zhang. He didn't hate actresses at all. Why would he hate actresses for no reason?
Shu Dongyue nodded and said, "Yes, Master. Yue'er will never dare to have such a thought again. Please don't be angry!"
Daqi's anger subsided slightly, but he still made Shu Dongyue kneel with her snowy buttocks raised high. He spread her buttocks apart with both hands, thrust his hips forward, and suddenly "conquered" her anus. Dongyue let out a soft "Ah!" and her whole body trembled, her face twitching.
"Master...be gentle...be gentle..." The beautiful girl, Shu Dongyue, knew that Daqi was angry, so she obediently let him do whatever he wanted to her. Every time Daqi thrust his hips, she screamed. Later, Daqi started pulling his body quickly, and Shu Dongyue blushed and moaned softly. Daqi's belly kept hitting the girl's buttocks, making a series of crisp flesh-on-flesh sounds, which sounded particularly jarring in the bathroom.
Finally, Daqi withdrew his body from Dongyue's, forcing her to kneel before him. He then roughly used her sexy lips to unleash his passion. Shu Dongyue, completely submissive, emitted mesmerizing moans, her eyes gazing up at the man with adoration, her lips tightly pressed together…
Looking at Shu Dongyue's submissive and pleading expression, Daqi said, "Yue'er, you are my woman, and I am your man. As your husband, I order you not to become any kind of damn actress, especially not to act for Zhang the lecher. Do you understand?"
