Guan Jibai's eyes lit up, he weighed it in his mind, and then nodded.
Now that she had the opportunity, she couldn't let it go. As for being aloof and refusing to rely on others, she wouldn't do that.
All she has to do is work hard, conquer the audience with her acting skills, and avoid being laughed at for being unworthy of her position.
The films created by the powerful duo of Jiang Dafeng and Li Yuqi have produced many international film actors and actresses. By the time she entered the entertainment industry, the two had long since stopped performing in person, and no matter how high the price was, they were still unavailable.
As an actor, who doesn’t want to be the lucky one of this golden combination?
"Be patient and don't rush it. Please take good care of your mother. I know you can."

Jiang Dafeng and Lao Li left in a hurry. They hadn't sat there for half an hour in total. After they left, Aunt Tao came over with dried mushrooms and wolfberries and asked mysteriously, "One of the people who just came in looked familiar to me."
"Have you seen it?"
"It seems he's been to our alley before."
"Maybe!"
Guan Jibai didn't say much, and the two of them worked together, one as the main chef and the other as an assistant, to stew the chicken soup. Aunt Tao also taught Guan Jibai how to make hand-rolled noodles. Being able to order the chef's cooking in person at a state-owned restaurant must be a top-notch skill.
In other words, there are not many ingredients, only flour, otherwise Aunt Tao could make more.
But even with only flour, the hand-rolled noodles made by Aunt Tao are particularly chewy.
Cook the noodles in chicken broth and add some green onions, it will definitely taste good.
I thought Guan Wanwan would be late getting off work today, but she actually came back on time, and she was so cheerful. As soon as she came back, she told Guan Jibai about reporting to work tomorrow.
"It just so happens that I made chicken soup today. We can have chicken soup and noodles with it tonight and celebrate."
"Okay! Okay!"
Guan Wanwan was overjoyed and praised her daughter in various ways, showering her with words like hardworking, virtuous, smart, and sensible. This made Guan Jibai wonder if his own mother had ever been in a praise group.
"I'll send most of it to your Aunt Tao's family. You've helped us so much, we should be grateful." Guan Wanwan took the initiative to say.
"Auntie Tao bought some too." Guan Jibai made the chicken soup because he saw Guan Wanwan working so hard at work, looking so haggard. Every night, he bathed behind her back, secretly afraid of being seen. Although she didn't say it, she knew it clearly in her heart.
When he met Guo Fengjun and saw her hesitant look, it confirmed his guess.
At work, it's definitely more than just being bullied.
The reason why I was so anxious was that I wanted to help my mother.
"Eat more. When we get our salary, we'll treat Aunt Tao and Uncle Zhuo to a meal."
"Okay then!" Guan Wanwan thought about it before agreeing. She then solemnly took out a notebook and wrote down the details.
Over the years, there have been very few people who have taken the initiative to be kind to her, so she cherishes them all the more. She will record even the smallest kindness and read it quietly when she feels overwhelmed, drawing courage to persevere.
Guan Jibai tied an apron and went to the kitchen. He put the prepared hand-rolled noodles in the chicken soup, sprinkled them with chopped green onions after cooking, and first served a large bowl to Guan Wanwan and took half a bowl for himself.
The two sat face to face at the small dining table. Guan Wanwan held the chopsticks and looked at the delicious chicken soup noodles in front of her, tears rolling silently from her eyes.
Guan Jibai was dumbfounded.
"Why are you crying? Is it not tasty?"
"It's delicious, very delicious. Mom has never eaten such delicious chicken soup or such delicious hand-rolled noodles in her life." Guan Wanwan wiped her tears and said emotionally.
