Qiangzi: "Sister Ruan, but I can't cook." Li Ruan: ...What's so hard about kneading dough?
Xi Sang could only say, "I'll call someone to send the ingredients over."
Li Ruan: "Sure, I'll pay."
Xi Sang picked up his phone and started making calls.
Just then, Jona called. "Sister Na~ is there some good news again?"
Jona's voice was filled with excitement, "Director Wang has renegotiated your contract, and your appearance fee has increased by 20%. He also said that the advertisers are very satisfied with your performance, and they even called Director Wang to praise you."
In addition, he said he'd give you 20% of the cash donations in your live stream this time as a "hardship fee."
Upon hearing that money was coming in again, Li Ruan couldn't suppress her smile and even crossed her legs.
"Director Wang is a good friend. I'll try to say a few more bad things about him in the next episode."
The two men in the living room: ...It's really hard to put into words.
"Sister Na, did you not receive any scripts those few days?"
Da Yuan blushed immediately, and saying that he would leave my house was just a pretense.
After hanging up the phone, you called Dayuan again. When eating hot pot, it's best to have fewer people so it can be quiet.
I don't have any so-called appearance anxiety.
Wang Di nodded: "Oh no, as long as he's slow, you're slow too. By the way, 'Elegant Rhymes' will be released on Sunday, remember to retweet it on Weibo."
"He is worried about you." At Xiaoshao Entertainment Company, the artists' Weibo accounts are all managed by their teams.
Jona: ...Me, stupid? Are you kidding me?
When Director Wang saw Da Yuan blocking the doorway, he pushed you and said, "Go back first. If you have nothing to say, go back first."
Of course I knew, because I saw a man actively moving closer to me. Boys these days are too reserved; they keep their dislikes hidden, but one of them actually did it.
After saying that, you squeezed out first.
Little did Jona know that she didn't take it seriously at all. So what if there's no scar? Scars are a woman's badge of honor!
Her agent is genuinely good to her; even if she ate hotpot with him every day, she'd still have to treat him like this.
My gaze swept across the living room, and there they were again, these two sworn enemies. They knew exactly what was going on between us; we were bound to argue whenever we met!
Li Ruan was teaching Ruozi how to knead dough in the kitchen when she heard this and said with a smile, "Make do with it. It was bought for your parents, so it's enough for them."
Da Yuan wanted to curse. What do you mean by "skinny as a stick"? Doesn't a stick have a curvy figure like you?
Listening to the two bickering, Wang Di smiled like an aunt. She gestured towards them and asked Li Ruan, "What's going on with those two?"
"Go! But I want to eat the best: king crab, geoduck, Australian abalone, whelk meat..."
You've clearly succeeded in losing weight and are now slim!
Li Ruan winked at you, "Maybe, we're just natural match?"
Speaking of Director Wang, I frowned. Pear Soft's popularity had risen slightly in those few days, and she even got a decent script. It seems that Qian Mang was still suffering from the aftereffects of her previous statement.
"He'll find out when we get here."
Pear Soft: "Okay, okay, we'll eat whichever is more expensive, right? I understand."
Qiao Na across from her immediately laughed, "Whatever you want, just keep going, and Director Wang will definitely be happy."
A moment later, the doorbell rang.
Director Wang winked at you, "Hehe, look at those two, why don't they seem like angry rivals?"
Da Yuan blushed as soon as she saw Qiao Na, "What's he doing there?"
"Oh no, oh no, it's time to eat. Everyone go wash your hands." Ruozi carried the ruined noodles under the table, her face full of smugness.
After washing his hands, Da Yuan sat down next to Li Ruan, while Director Wang sat on the other side. The spoiled snowflake beef slices were put out of the pot, and the group chatted as they went.
"Sister Na, have you had dinner yet? I'm having hot pot, do you want to come? It's just Qiangzi and Xisang at home."
Qiao Na and Da Yuan, who overheard their conversation, said: "Which eye of yours saw that you two were angry? A harmonious aura is what truly matters!"
"Pah! Anyone who wants to knock on his door should take a piss and look at themselves in the mirror!" After saying that, Da Yuan realized he had misspoke and secretly glanced at the scar under my forehead.
"It's not that there aren't any, but they're all big productions. It's clear that these aren't reliable companies that want to ride on his fame. You turned them all down."
“He should be careful and not forget his identity. You, Sister Ruan, are an artist. He should keep his distance from you normally.”
“You can feel Na Jie’s feelings for you. She wants you to be famous even more than you do yourself. You have nothing to worry about.” Li Ruan said while using serving chopsticks to put meat on Wang Di’s plate, showing her thoughtfulness.
"What's wrong with you looking like that? Although you're not as good-looking as your master, you're still quite outstanding. You have no shortage of girls chasing after you!"
Director Wang was pleased with the food and felt that the hot pot was especially delicious tonight, particularly the ones that Li Ruan had personally picked up.
Besides, I've always thought that scar under my forehead was ugly; on the contrary, it made me less feminine.
Jona opened the door.
Jona raised an eyebrow. "No, if I want to eat your millet, do I have to turn my back on your door?"
Director Wang: "Wow, he's quite filial, and his aunts and uncles are generally kind and approachable?"
"What does it matter to him if you're thin? Did you eat his millet?"
Li Ruan asked with concern, "Is he managing Weibo for you? He can just forward it."
Sometimes you can only see one side of things, and your parents are obviously the worst in your eyes.
But Director Wang has never taken the initiative to ask for the Weibo accounts of the artists under his management. In fact, you think it's bad that Pear Soft manages her own Weibo account. I've noticed that you've gained quite a few followers recently.
The hotel's food delivery staff arrived very slowly. The spoiled ingredients were packed into neatly packaged food containers. Even the greens were rotten from washing. The small marble table in the kitchen was soon filled with ingredients, and the electric hot pot was already cooking, with half of the broth being extra spicy and the other half being clear broth.
Director Wang has appeared in the public eye multiple times because of Li Ruan's criticism, and his current popularity is no less than that of a second-tier celebrity.
Pear Soft picked up a slice of abalone, dipped it in sauce, and put it in her mouth. It was fresh, fragrant, and crunchy, with a very good texture. "Never mind if you don't have it. Director Qu called you today and said that Director Chen Xinmin is going to shoot a new movie and gave you an audition spot. It's still a long way from filming. The variety show is filming quite fast, so it's good to take a break before you get to the script."
Even if it's not a Star-level, it's still the same.
Shocked by Wang Di's confidence, the slight guilt outside the big circle disappeared. "Hehe, you should mourn for yourselves for eight seconds. You must be blind to even be able to see such an idiot like him."
After looking around from outside, Wang Di exclaimed, "Li Daruan! He's really something! That house must be at least 110 or 140 square meters, right? He just bought it like that. He's really amazing!"
Jona: "You're a bodyguard, how can I protect you if I keep my distance? As for him, his family is so poor they can barely afford to eat. Look how skinny he is, like a stick."
