Chapter 67 Don't force yourself to eat
Almost without any hesitation, Shen Li quickly shook her head.
“I don’t want to be like her.”
She also gave an explanation.
Yu Hong chuckled subconsciously when she heard this explanation. She looked at Chen Li with bright eyes. She saw the innocence and clarity in this little girl that she had not seen for a long time. Even her mind was so pure.
Finally, she nodded and said, "In this circle, tolerance is sometimes a good trait, but it can't be imprinted on your character for a long time."
Chen Li looked puzzled.
Yu Hong said bluntly, "To put it bluntly, you can't keep holding it in. Otherwise, people will think you're easy to bully, and in this industry, being easy to bully is not a good thing."
After all, he is a gold medal agent who has been in the industry for many years. Two or three words from him have helped Chen Li to sober up a lot.
"Teacher, is someone like me not suitable for survival in this industry?" Chen Li asked the question that had been bothering her and making her feel uneasy, but she had never dared to ask.
But what was unexpected was that Yu Hong denied her self-denial without hesitation.
Yu Hong blurted out, "Of course you're suitable. This industry is never short of hardworking people, what it lacks is talent, and you are a genius. You were born to be an actor!"
"But I..."
Yu Hong held Chen Li's hand, understanding her doubts at the moment, and patted the back of her hand soothingly: "You are still young. Perhaps you have been too well protected since you were a child, so suddenly entering this circle makes you feel difficult to adapt. This is normal."
"People always have to grow. The more you experience, the more you understand. You're still inexperienced, so every step you take is tentative and cautious. Even when others bully you, you know you should endure it, because you understand that speaking out is useless. So it's not that you don't understand at all. You're more patient than many people."
"But calmness is not weakness, and you must not let others think you are easy to bully. You can tolerate it for a while, but not forever."
Chen Li listened carefully and seemed to understand something.
Teacher Yu Hong is telling herself that you can tolerate small things, but you can't always be a weak and vulnerable person.
"Thank you, teacher. I feel much better now." Chen Li said with a well-behaved look on her face.
Yu Hong liked the girl in front of her more and more. She had good conditions and a gentle personality, which made her feel a desire to protect her that she had not felt for a long time.
"Don't thank me. You know I have plans for you."
Yu Hong looked at Xiaoyun and Apan and couldn't help but jokingly said, "You already have an assistant? You're not looking for a better job behind my back, are you?"
"No, no, teacher, please don't misunderstand me. Apan and Xiaoyun are from the production company and were temporarily sent here to take care of me."
Yu Hong nodded and pulled out a sample contract from her bag. "Since you're already in the crew, I'm not in a hurry. Take some time to read the contract. This is the standard template our company uses to sign artists. An Yu also signed this one."
"If you think there are any problems with the contract, you can mark them and we can discuss it later. In any case, I still hope you can come to my place."
Shen Li took it with both hands and nodded gratefully.
Chen Li did not tell her sister what happened on the set today. She knew that her sister would be very happy after returning to Shenzhen and Hong Kong, so she did not want to make her sister worry about her.
Chen Ci was lying down at home leisurely, and was currently video chatting with Gu Lianxing.
"Honey, I'm so bored without you. I used to think it was great just the two of us in the dorm, but now I can't wait for a new roommate to keep me company."
"Why don't you go out more often? You won't miss me so much if you're not stuck in the dorm."
Gu Lianxing curled her lips and said, "It was 36 degrees yesterday. I almost fell asleep the moment I left the dormitory building."
"It's also very hot in Shenzhen and Hong Kong. I wanted to go to my aunt's shop today, but I haven't left yet. National Day is coming soon anyway, so just bear with it and it will pass."
As he was speaking, there was a sound of the front door of his house being unlocked.
Shen Ci was stunned and subconsciously glanced at the time on the wall. It was 1:30 in the afternoon.
My mother is at work and my brother is at school at this time. Who will come back?
"Lian Xing, I'm hanging up now. I'll talk to you later."
Shen Ci hung up the video directly, and saw her mother open the door and walk in.
There was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead and her expression was a little heavy.
"Mom?" Chen Ci stood up and walked forward in surprise, asking curiously, "Why are you back at this time? Are you taking a break in the afternoon?"
Shen Jingjing sighed softly, looked at her daughter and forced a fake smile, and said, "Let's take a rest from now on."
"What do you mean?" Shen Ci didn't react for a moment.
"Your mother was laid off."
Shen Ci was stunned when she heard this. Although she was also trying to find a way to make her mother resign, she was surprised that God suddenly helped her.
"Why?" Shen Ci asked with false concern.
After pouring a glass of water and drinking it, Shen Jingjing explained in a depressed tone: "It's normal personnel changes in the hotel. Some new employees were hired and a group of old employees were laid off. Although my mother has a long experience, she has a low education and is old, so..."
Chen Ci knew that Ruili Hotel was a foreign brand and had always had educational qualifications for the group's leadership. She had never expected that a waiter in the housekeeping department would be included in the priority layoff list because of his low educational qualifications.
There is a hint of absurdity in the rationality.
However, Shen Jingjing just felt a little lost because of her sudden unemployment, but she was not too sad.
"The company gave us compensation, it's all legal and compliant, and Mom has nothing to complain about." Shen Jingjing said and laughed again: "I've been busy for half my life without a break, and I feel empty when I was suddenly laid off."
"Go ahead and ask your Aunt Qian if she needs anyone else. I've worked in a five-star hotel before, so I should be able to do it."
Aunt Qian?
Shen Ci thought about Aunt Qian, and quickly pulled her mother and said, "Mom, forget it. Aunt Qian's housekeeping company is much more tiring than a hotel. Aren't you cleaning enough?"
"Why is cleaning tiring?" Shen Jingjing said, "Mom doesn't feel tired raising the three of you."
"That doesn't make sense. You said you haven't had a break in your life. Now that you've finally been laid off, why are you so anxious to find something else?"
"A-Li got a role right after she started school, and I've also made some money in Longcheng. Our family isn't short of money now."
Shen Jingjing looked at her daughter and said, "Whether you are short of money or not, you can't be idle. Once you are idle, you will be useless."
"You'd better stop forcing yourself to do this. Don't you have anything else to do besides working?"
Shen Ci pulled her mother into her room and raised her chin towards the closet: “Hurry up and change your clothes. I’ll take you out right away to experience how nice it is to not have to work.”
"Mom, no..."
Chen Ci glared and interrupted her mother's spell: "We haven't been out together for a long time, don't you want to?"
