Reflections of a Distant Echo Chapter 4

Walking on the soft and thick carpet and around the corridor, the noisy sounds of the annual meeting were isolated.

"If it works, you can be on a variety show," Dylan Huang said excitedly, "and the ratings will be very high."

Ethan Xu was even more confused: "I don't have any works yet, so I'm going to a variety show?"

Dylan Huang rubbed his hands: "Don't worry, you've already had a good exposure rate before. Besides, as long as this person is there, even if you are an amateur, you can still be on the show. The program team is more than happy."

Ethan Xu suddenly had an idea. He took a step back and said honestly, "Brother Dylan Huang, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that I will never accept any hidden rules or engage in P*rnography."

Dylan Huang: ...

Dylan Huang: "Stop imagining! Don't be nervous from now on and perform well!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Dylan Huang pushed open a half-open door.

As soon as the door opened, Ethan Xu was pushed forward one step unexpectedly and appeared at the door.

Everyone who was talking in the room looked at him.

Except for that one---

The man sitting on the soft leather sofa in front of the French window had so many long legs that the floor in front of the sofa could barely accommodate him. The alpha's aura came directly and domineeringly from him. When Ethan Xu felt it, his brain buzzed and he was stunned by the pheromone.

Scorching Sun, an S-level pheromone that belongs exclusively to Tyler Ling, is an abstract alpha pheromone that is rare on Earth.

The radio host's ridicule vaguely sounded in his mind, and Ethan Xu thought uncontrollably, no wonder there is no omega around this person... This feeling is enough to make any unmarked omega go weak in the knees.

Hearing the door open, Tyler Ling just turned his head slowly and looked over without any expression.

And Ethan Xu was looking at him.

Their eyes met, and for a moment everything seemed to be silent.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window is the night view of the city, and I don’t know when the sky turned completely dark.

Tyler Ling had his back to the bustling lights, just like the countless times he appeared in the center of the stage surrounded by fireflies, like the moon surrounded by stars, distant yet real.

Ethan Xu's heart suddenly began to beat wildly, and a crazy voice shouted in disbelief: Ahhhhhhhh it's the living Tyler Ling!!!

Tyler Ling's cold eyes were dark brown under the night light, without a trace of emotion.

Because of his bloodline, he has deep eyebrows and a high nose bridge, with a lazy and noble elegance. Unlike the artists at the annual meeting, Tyler Ling's hair was messy and unkempt, and he wore a loose black hoodie. The only decoration was the rings with different meanings on his slender fingers.

Judging from his attire, Tyler Ling really had no intention of attending the annual meeting properly; he was unique and willful.

The sense of age is suddenly brought very close, reminding people that this much-anticipated superstar is only 26 years old this year.

It turns out that Tyler Ling is like this in private!

Ethan Xu was roaring in his heart.

So the person that Dylan Huang Ge mentioned was going to take him to the show was Tyler Ling? Ahhhh he can!!!

In just two or three seconds, the atmosphere in the room seemed to be frozen by an invisible hand.

Dylan Huang glanced at Ethan Xu and thought to himself, this is bad.

Ethan Xu's delicate eyebrows were very cold, as if covered with a layer of ice, and he had a strong personality. Even Dylan Huang knew that he must be screaming in his heart at this moment.

... Dylan Huang was speechless. Next time he would have to learn how to manage his facial expressions seriously.

When this kid gets serious, he looks so cold. When they first met, Dylan Huang was frightened by Ethan Xu's seriousness. Who knew that the faster a person is established, the faster he will collapse.

"Here we are." He quickly took the initiative to introduce, "Sister Ya, this is our Zhou Zhou. Zhou Zhou, this is Situ Ya, Sister Ya, the company's top agent. And Xiao An, the company's top assistant."

Xiao An was embarrassed and said, "No, no, no."

Dylan Huang smiled kindly: "I don't need to introduce the other one. Didn't you keep asking me today if Tyler Ling would come? He's right there, why don't you go and say hello?"

Ethan Xu still hasn't digested the fact that he saw Tyler Ling alive.

His earlobes were barely perceptible, and he spoke as if waking from a dream: "Hello, you guys."

Facing Tyler Ling's gaze, Ethan Xu followed Dylan Huang Qianmai into the house and politely shook hands with Situ Ya and Xiao An.

When it was Tyler Ling's turn, Ethan Xu's palms were sweating. It took him a lot of effort to calm down and introduce himself again: "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Ethan Xu."

Dylan Huang chimed in: "Zhou Zhou likes you very much. He even mentioned you during the live broadcast last night and criticized the haters."

Xiao An raised his hand: "Yes, yes, I saw it too!"

Ethan Xu's hand stretched out in the air.

His skin was so white that it was blinding, and the blood vessels were clearly visible on the back of his hands. He was as beautiful as he was, like a piece of fine porcelain that could be easily crushed.

Tyler Ling said nothing.

He ignored the hand and made no attempt to shake it.

"Tyler Ling?" Situ Ya thought he was still in a bad mood and said politely, "We agreed to take care of the newcomers."

Dylan Huang didn't understand why and thought Tyler Ling disliked Ethan Xu's appearance because he was too cold, so he tried to smooth things over by saying, "Well, although our Zhou Zhou looks like a cold beauty, he is actually very simple at heart, really. He hasn't even been in a relationship yet, so he's very easy to get along with."

Ethan Xu: "???" He doesn't have any face?

Weird introduction, what kind of business has the agent quietly started? !

Hearing this, Tyler Ling finally raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him.

It was not until then that he noticed Ethan Xu's neck ring.

The almost transparent lace collar wrapped around the gracefully curved neck, covering the glands in detail, adding a touch of abstinence, but more clearly reminding that the owner of this collar was a sweet and delicious unmarried omega.

In just a few years, Ethan Xu has grown into what he is today.

When facing him, not only did she act flawless as if it was the first time they met, she also had the guts to lie to the company.

Tyler Ling said coldly: "If you want me to take care of him, wait until the next life."

Ethan Xu withdrew his hand in surprise, and the red behind his ears spread to his face, finally dyeing this cold face crimson.

...

what's the situation?

Dylan Huang's smile froze on his face, and Xiao An's mouth opened into a small O shape.

Without waiting for Situ Ya to speak, Tyler Ling added ruthlessly: "I particularly don't like this one."

Dylan Huang interrupted hastily: "That's because you don't understand him. If you spend more time with him and get to know him, you will know our Zhou Zhou---"

"Do you understand?" Tyler Ling said to Dylan Huang, but his eyes stayed on Ethan Xu, "I dare say that even you don't understand this artist at all."

There was no substance in his eyes; Tyler Ling did not reveal any negative emotions of disdain or disgust.

But Ethan Xu felt that being looked at like this was like burning, about to burn a hole in him. At that moment, he realized that he was nothing in front of the other party, just an insignificant speculator waiting to be promoted.

To be honest, it was not difficult for Ethan Xu to understand such an idea, but Tyler Ling was very different from what he had imagined.

It is very rude and arrogant to criticize others just because you don't like a certain type of person.

Tyler Ling himself is as arrogant and rebellious as his aura.

The embarrassment on Ethan Xu's face slowly faded away, and he just looked at Tyler Ling without saying anything.

Tyler Ling looked away.

Seeing this, Situ Ya stepped forward and said, "What are you doing? This is not a blind date, why are you picking out styles? We just said that we were just bringing someone new!"

They all knew the real reason for bringing in new people, including Dylan Huang. Bringing in new people was just an additional condition, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a cover.

The opportunity for a win-win situation is right in front of us.

"You said you wanted to just bring it here so I could take a look first, okay?" Tyler Ling interrupted her, and replied calmly in his pleasant voice, with a hint of frivolity, "I've taken a look, and the answer is no."

After saying that, Tyler Ling ignored the people in the room, covered his face with a baseball cap and pretended to take a nap.

This behavior is simply that of a three-year-old, no more.

The room was quiet for a while.

When everyone was at a loss, Tyler Ling said coldly: "Get out."

This sentence was said to Dylan Huang and others.

No matter how good Dylan Huang's temper was, he was still an agent who favored his own artists. He immediately took Ethan Xu away neatly, and Situ Ya hurriedly chased after him to explain in person.

After sending the outsiders away, Situ Ya could no longer hold back when she came back. She angrily took off Tyler Ling's hat and looked at his sleepless face: "So why is this happening? What's wrong with him? Give me an explanation."

Tyler Ling was neither anxious nor impatient. He gently took the hat back and covered his face with it.

He said: "Thank you for helping me find my ex-boyfriend by chance."

The company arranged a lucky draw at the end of the annual meeting.

Ethan Xu did not succeed in getting the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that Dylan Huang mentioned, nor did he win the prize as he wished. It seemed that there was no luck at all on his birthday, and everything went wrong.

Dylan Huang was just a small agent after all, and could only comfort him palely for a while, saying that there would be many opportunities in the future and asked him not to let this incident affect his mood.

Ethan Xu listened for a while and sighed deeply: "Oh, I was too confident. I'm going to be slapped in the face. Is it too late to get plastic surgery and change my name now?"

He shamelessly said something about a reversal during the live broadcast. At that time, at least one or two thousand people witnessed his speech. This slap in the face really hurts.

"I really don't know Ethan Xu." He said seriously, "Who is that?"

Dylan Huang: ...

He thought Ethan Xu was heartbroken, but he didn't expect Ethan Xu to worry about this. He really couldn't understand these young people!

Is face and opportunity important?!

"It's better to take off your clothes early than to take them off well." Ethan Xu said to himself, "It's better to take them off early than late."

Lu Jia saw Ethan Xu and walked over to hear this. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "What are you taking off?"

Ethan Xu sighed again. He was really disappointed: "I'm no longer a fan."

After the annual meeting, someone leaked the news that Tyler Ling had come. There were more and more reporters outside the Fisher Hotel. Every car that went out would be stopped for photos and interviews. Calling the police was useless. Later, the top management said that for safety and privacy reasons, everyone would stay at the hotel that night.

The room they booked was not big enough and Ethan Xu was not familiar with anyone, but fortunately Lu Jia took the initiative to ask to share a room with him.

Lu Jia was a little drunk and fell on the bed as soon as he entered the room.

After Ethan Xu finished taking a shower, he was still lying there, and he seemed to be even more drunk.

"I feel so uncomfortable..." Lu Jia's eyes were red and he smelled of alcohol, "I want to take a shower."

Ethan Xu is very good at dealing with drunk people. He has experience: "You can't take a shower now. I'll call the guest room and ask them to bring some hangover medicine."

Lu Jia shook his head: "There are paparazzi. I, I brought it... in my bag."

Ethan Xu looked around but couldn't find his bag: "It's not here, where did you put your bag?"

Lu Jia said dazedly, "The dressing room."

After saying this, Lu Jia fell silent again.

The small hall that was temporarily converted into a dressing room was not far away. Ethan Xu went to get his bag and came back, but the door of the room was locked. No matter how he called Lu Jia, he could not hear him. He must have fallen into a deep sleep.

...

Ethan Xu was petrified on the spot.

He didn't take the room card or his cell phone, he was just wearing a bathrobe.

Mercury retrograde indeed.

Going downstairs is impossible, and I don’t know who I will meet in the elevator.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly. Everyone living on this floor was from Star Realm, so he was able to borrow a phone from someone in another room to call the front desk and ask them to bring up the room card to help him open the door.

He never expected that the person who opened the door opposite him when he knocked would be Tyler Ling.

"It's you." Seeing that it was him, Tyler Ling's eyes showed impatience, "What do you want to do?"

Then, Tyler Ling frowned.

Ethan Xu seemed to have just finished a shower, and his skin was still steaming.

He was only wearing a loose yukata, through which one could vaguely see his fair chest and collarbone, as well as the two straight calves exposed under the yukata.
