Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Double Update in One
The fact that someone offered her three thousand yuan to be a chef was so outrageous that Yan Su thought about it seriously for a whole minute.
However.
Three thousand yuan.
That’s three thousand yuan.
A simple home-cooked meal with one meat, one vegetable and one soup costs three thousand yuan.
Does it matter if it tastes bad? No, it's someone else eating it, not her.
…
In the short minute that Yan Su used her brain to think, her mind was filled with three thousand yuan.
Ah, that's a full three thousand yuan.
Yan Su stared at the WeChat chat history between her and "Butler Zhao" on the screen.
[Butler Zhao: Miss Yan, you did a great job last time. My young master wants to drink the pigeon soup you made.]
Last time?
It seems that the original owner had cooked for the young master mentioned by Butler Zhao before.
No, in my memory, the original owner made something similar to what she did, and even dogs would shake their heads when they smelled it.
This young master had eaten the food cooked by the original owner, but he was not poisoned to death... ahem, he didn't suffer any psychological trauma from the food?
Yan Su was shocked and deeply puzzled.
She flipped through the chat history between the original owner and Butler Zhao and discovered that the last time the other party mentioned was four years ago.
Good job.
Four years! After four years, I still can’t forget that weird pot of pigeon soup?
Yan Su was at a loss as to what to do, and her face was hesitant for a moment.
“Beep-beep.”
The phone vibrated twice again.
[Butler Zhao: Miss Yan?]
Butler Zhao: Miss Yan, do you think the price is too little? I was negligent. It's been four years, and the price should be raised. How about 5,000 yuan per meal?
The number "5000" squeezed into Yan Su's sight forcefully and domineeringly, instantly crushing the remaining bit of rationality in her mind into slag.
[Okay, no problem.]
Yan Su's fingers flew, typing away quickly to reply to the message from the other party.
Because she was typing so fast, her fingers left afterimages.
Qian Yayi glanced at it inadvertently and was so shocked that she almost fell off the stool.
Yan Su and Butler Zhao agreed on a cooking time and put her phone back in her pocket.
Thinking that she could earn 5,000 yuan just by making a meal, Yan Su couldn't help laughing out loud and finished the milk tea in a few gulps.
On the edge.
The crew members were still gossiping, but the subject had changed from Gu Yan to Moss, the director of "Two or Three Things About the Daxing Dynasty".
As we chatted, we talked about the female character with the most screen time, that is, the actress who played the female lead, Liu Rucheng.
When Yan Su heard the name Liu Rucheng, she immediately remembered a plot in the novel that mentioned the reason for her downfall.
That was on the 7 o'clock news broadcast on the national television station CCTV. It caused a sensation across the country and was very grand.
I don’t know when, Uncle Chen, who was in charge of meals, came over with a small stool and a big bag of melon seeds.
"Come on, come on, eat some sunflower seeds and chat while you eat them. These are sunflower seeds made by my wife. They are all natural and have no additives. Feel free to eat them."
Uncle Chen began to distribute melon seeds to everyone, and then sat next to Yan Su.
He grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into Yan Su's hands.
Soon, a "crackling" sound was heard in this small circle.
Yan Su ate melon seeds and listened to everyone chatting about all sorts of outrageous gossip in the entertainment industry. However, she was seriously skeptical about the authenticity of the gossip.
After all, the rumors circulating in the crew about her background as a rich girl with many twists and turns were spread by these idiots.
"Xiao Su, what are your plans for the future?"
Yan Su was cracking melon seeds enthusiastically when Uncle Chen, who was sitting next to her, suddenly brought the topic to her.
Everyone else's eyes turned to her.
Future? Plans?
Yan Su blinked and said, "Work hard and make money to raise a cub."
As for the trivial matter of relying on her two children to reach the pinnacle of life, she'd better not talk about it.
Uncle Chen asked, "Where's your innocent boyfriend?"
After saying that, his face changed and he advised earnestly: "Xiao Su, I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. Listen to my advice, men can't be spoiled, let alone pampered. They must go out to work and earn money to support the family."
When the others heard what Uncle Chen said, they all spoke up.
"Uncle Chen is right. You can't pamper a man too much."
"So what? What's wrong with a good-looking man being pampered?"
"Sister Yan, can you tell us about your love story with this innocent boy? Did you really pursue him? Or was he playing hard to get? Handsome men nowadays are very cunning."
…
Yan Su scratched her feet a few times and her scalp felt numb.
Seeing that these idiots were talking more and more outrageous, she quickly spoke up to stop them, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have a boyfriend."
Uncle Chen immediately followed up, "Oh, so they broke up. Good, breaking up is good. This kind of gigolo should have been broken up with long ago!"
Yan Su emphasized: "No, I have never looked for a male college student as a boyfriend. Those are all rumors."
Uncle Chen: "Oh, don't worry, Xiaosu, I understand."
The others also had an "I understand" expression on their faces and smiled without saying anything.
Yan Su: “…”
Brothers, sisters, and men all understand. What do you understand?
A girl with a bun asked, "Sister Yan, can you tell me more about your ex-boyfriend? He's Danzai's father. He gave his life to save you. Your love is so touching."
Yan Su: "He didn't sacrifice his life to save me. This is also a rumor."
The girl with the ball-shaped hair looked as if she had suddenly understood something. She looked at Yan Su with an extremely loving expression, "I understand, Sister Yan."
Alas, Sister Yan must be too sad, so she doesn’t want to mention her ex-boyfriend. Sister Yan loves him very much.
Yan Su: “…”
"Dongjie, what do you know now? Tell us more about it."
The guy from the props department, who was sorting through the white rose petals, moved his stool a few times toward Yan Su and asked, "Sister Yan, what about your dad? Are you really not going to pretend to forgive him for breaking up your relationship and go back to make some money to support your child?"
Yan Su: "I don't even know who my father is, so this story about 'I have a wealthy father who hides his identity' is also a rumor."
The guy from the props department said "Oh" and nodded: "I understand, Sister Yan."
It seems that Sister Yan still does not intend to forgive her biological father and is prepared to work and earn money to support her child.
Alas, daughters of wealthy fathers like Sister Yan choose to work diligently. What reason does he, an ordinary ox or horse, have to lie down and not work hard?
Yan Su: “…”
What do you know, brother?
She seriously refuted the rumor, but no one believed her. Everyone acted as if they knew a big secret and knew more about her life than she did.
Yan Su scratched her toes, raised her hand to touch the back of her head, and looked at these idiots with no way to defend herself.
Forget it, she just continued eating melon seeds.
Yan Su grabbed two melon seeds.
"Sister Yan!"
Director Chen's assistant ran over and said, "Sister Yan, Director Chen wants to see you."
Yan Su caught a glimpse of Uncle Chen looking at her, and it was obvious from his eyes that he was about to talk about her non-existent family background again.
Her eyebrows jumped, she reached out and picked up a bag of melon seeds beside her, stood up quickly and ran towards Director Chen.
…
Yan Su ran to Director Chen and stopped, "Director Chen, are you looking for me?"
As she spoke, she glanced at a young man sitting next to Director Chen.
He has brown curly hair, is about 180cm tall, wears black-framed glasses, has fair skin, delicate features, and is slightly plump.
Director Chen patted the small stool beside him and said, "Xiao Yan is here, come and sit down."
Yan Su walked forward and sat down.
Director Chen introduced him cheerfully, "This is Wan Zihang, the screenwriter of our Iron-Blooded Warrior. He's just 19 years old and still in college."
Huh? Screenwriter? Yan Su looked over intently.
It turns out he’s a screenwriter.
Such an advanced script as "The Iron-Blooded Warrior of the White Rose Roasted in Fire" cannot be written by anyone with the same mental state as an ordinary person.
Under Yan Su's gaze, Wan Zihang's fair cheeks turned red little by little.
He smiled shyly, and two dimples appeared on his face. "Hello, Sister Yan Su."
Yan Su nodded.
Director Chen's tone was slightly excited. "Xiao Yan, I asked you to come here because I wanted to ask your opinion on something. When I saw Guai Bao yesterday, I was immediately inspired to create a character tailored for him. What do you think?"
Yan Su's eyes lit up, "Of course no problem."
Anyway, the two kids are free, so it would be great if they could join the crew to film and make some money with her.
"good!"
Director Chen clapped his hands excitedly and looked at Wan Zihang next to him.
Wan Zihang's laptop was already open. "Director Chen, do you have any specific requirements for the settings?"
Director Chen felt inexplicably excited when he thought of Guaibao's appearance, especially her sparkling colorful hair.
"There are no specific requirements," he said, "but one thing is that this character doesn't appear often but must be very special."
When Yan Su heard this, her eyes rolled and she said, "Director Chen, I do have an idea."
Director Chen: “Oh?”
Yan Su said, "Why not set this new character as a time traveler from another planet, with a super high IQ and super powers. At first, he's naive, but later, deeply impressed by the spirit of the iron-blooded warriors, he resolutely chooses to join our party and become the backbone of the fight against the Japanese."
Anyway, the Iron-Blooded Warriors in the original script are not ordinary people, so it doesn’t matter much if there are more super-powered people traveling from other planets.
It's a great drama.
"For example, based on Guaibao's appearance, this character has seven superpowers, just like her hair. For another example..."
Director Chen's eyes lit up as he listened, and he immediately decided, "Okay, let's set it up like this."
Wan Zihang's eyes were also sparkling, making the clear stupidity in his eyes particularly prominent.
His hands were resting on the keyboard, typing away quickly, his eyes glancing at Yan Su from time to time.
Every time she spoke, his inspiration surged up like crazy, and a sense of heroism grew warm in his chest.
Confidant, confidant, looking at Yan Su he felt that he had found his confidant in life.
Wan Zihang recalled that his family had always opposed him becoming a screenwriter, saying that he was not cut out for it.
He started writing scripts at the age of 8 and has continued until now, when he is 19. During this period, he has submitted his scripts countless times to major film and television companies, but has never received a response.
I have also participated in many screenwriting-related competitions and events, and my performance has been incredibly consistent every time, with my ranking always being among the bottom five.
He was full of hope again and again, but was hit again and again, and he felt completely disheartened.
Seeing that Director Chen was collecting anti-Japanese war scripts, he rummaged through his folders for a long time before finding "The Iron-Blooded Warrior of the White Rose in Fire", which he had written with great effort and staying up late every day when he was ten years old.
He sent it with a try-it attitude.
Unexpectedly, more than a month later, I received a reply from Director Chen saying that his script was approved.
When Wan Zihang thinks about it now, he is still very grateful to Director Chen.
If it weren't for Director Chen, he would have given up on being a screenwriter and started to learn miserably how to inherit a fortune worth tens of billions.
And now, through Director Chen, he has met his soulmate in life.
Wan Zihang couldn't hold back his tears. With tears in his eyes, he looked at Yan Su and said, "Sister Yan, every word you say inspires me. You are the guiding light in my life."
Yan Su: “…”
Thanks, I don't want to be the guiding light.
…
Night gradually fell and the sky darkened.
Yan Su packed up her personal belongings and stuffed them all into a canvas bag.
"Yan Su."
Suddenly, a strange voice came into her ears.
Yan Su looked up.
Standing in front of her was a strange young man.
The man said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Brother Gu is waiting for you over in the grove, at..."
Yan Su thought, it turned out to be Gu Yan's assistant.
The assistant continued in a low voice, "Brother Gu said you don't have to go, but you have to think carefully about the consequences of refusing. For example, you finally got the opportunity to play the second female lead after all these years, but after filming the TV series, it can't be broadcast on TV and no broadcast platform can buy it... And you were planning to appear on Orange Health's dating variety show... The guest can change it at will..."
"Brother Gu told you not to act on impulse like you did back then. After all, you're not an 18-year-old who feeds the whole family. You still have two children to raise."
Yan Su scratched her face.
Yo, this bastard is threatening her.
She nodded, "Okay, I understand. You ask Gu Yan to wait."
After receiving the exact reply, the assistant quickly turned around and went back to report.
…
Yan Su carried a canvas bag and walked slowly towards the location the assistant indicated.
The further we walked, the quieter and more remote the location became, with no surveillance at all.
It seemed that Gu Yan came prepared, as he came to see her eagerly on the first day.
Yan Su held a few peanuts in her hand.
She turned another corner and finally saw a man standing under two towering trees not far away, smoking and posing.
It was Gu Yan.
There was one sentence in the message that Gu Yan asked his assistant to bring to her that she quite agreed with, which was that she should not act on impulse like she did when she was 18.
As I recall, the 18-year-old original owner was too reckless and didn't know how to leave any evidence.
Yan Su turned on the recording function of her mobile phone.
Gu Yan had already finished smoking three cigarettes. Just before he was about to run out of patience and annoyance, Yan Su's pitiful face finally appeared in front of him.
"Plop", "plop".
Almost the moment he saw Yan Su, Gu Yan heard his own heartbeat.
Looking at her seemingly boneless figure and slender waist, Gu Yan swallowed several times.
Yan Su stopped.
Gu Yan just felt his blood boiling.
This is a small forest in the wild, and he is getting excited thinking about what is going to happen next.
Yan Su played with the peanuts in her hand, "Gu Yan, I heard you were looking for me?"
Gu Yan's eardrums were filled with the long-lost sweet and tender voice. His chest was hesitating and he stretched out his hands to hug the person.
Yan Su moved her feet slightly and easily avoided it.
Gu Yan's face darkened, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Yan Su, you didn't think that what I asked my assistant to bring to you was a joke, did you?"
Yan Su blinked, her face full of innocence.
Gu Yan suppressed the turmoil in his heart and told himself not to rush. Yan Su was already in his hands and could not escape.
He took a drag on his cigarette and slowly blew out a smoke ring. He said, "Why, do you think Chen Liubai is some amazing director? Haha, a small-time director who's not even considered an 18th-tier star. When and if his TV series will be released is all up to me. Do you understand, Yan Su?"
Yan Su looked at him and didn't say anything.
Gu Yan was very dissatisfied with her attitude.
In his imagination, after he said these words, Yan Su's face should be full of panic, and she should look at him with her pitiful eyes filled with tears, begging him over and over again.
Or just throw yourself into his arms.
Instead of having clear eyes and a fearless look like now.
Gu Yan's face turned grim. "Yan Su, you rejected my pursuit a few years ago. What happened next? I could have just posted a Weibo post and nailed you to the pillar of shame and ruined your career. Now, not only can I ruin you again, I can also ruin your son."
He sneered, "Every failure is a learning experience. I thought what happened a few years ago had taught you that you have to risk everything to survive in the entertainment industry."
Neither of them noticed that not far from them, the weeds more than one meter high shook several times.
Yan Su listened to Gu Yan's words patiently and smiled at him.
Gu Yan was stunned at first, then ecstasy surged in his heart.
Yan Su said, "You're right. People should learn from their mistakes."
"That's right." Gu Yan smiled and looked Yan Su up and down with his eyes openly.
Yan Su took out a small rubber band and slowly tied a ponytail.
Then, her eyes changed, "Now, it's my turn to teach you a lesson..."
"Bang!"
Before Yan Su could finish her harsh words, she saw a spatula flying straight towards her and hitting Gu Yan's forehead with a "bang".
Almost instantly, his forehead turned red and swelled up into a big bump.
"ah!!!"
The sudden severe pain made Gu Yan cry out in pain and he took several steps back.
Before Yan Su could recover from the sudden change, she saw Uncle Chen standing up from a pile of weeds not far away.
Then, he rushed over with a speed that was totally inconsistent with his chubby body, raised his foot and kicked Gu Yan hard.
"ah!"
"Bang!"
Gu Yan was kicked out and his back hit a tree hard.
He was a pampered star, so when had he ever been treated like this? He couldn't hold it in any longer, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
Uncle Chen was angry.
When he was making dinner today, he found that the ginger he brought was gone. After eating melon seeds and chatting with everyone, he strolled into the mountains and forests here to see if there was any wild ginger to dig up and bring back.
Who knew that he would encounter such a thing.
This heartless little star actually used the insignificant power in his hands to bully others.
Uncle Chen said sternly, "Xiao Su, don't be afraid of this guy. I was a cook in the army for many years when I was young. I know a few junior leaders and I will definitely not let this guy bully you."
Yan Su listened to Uncle Chen's powerful words and looked at his rare serious expression, and was deeply moved.
Uncle Chen has already walked to Gu Yan's side.
He grabbed Gu Yan's clothes on his chest and slapped him twice.
Gu Yanzheng was unconscious and was suddenly awakened by a slap.
He slowly opened his eyes, and a fat old man's face appeared right in front of him.
Gu Yan: “…”
Uncle Chen grabbed his collar and shook him madly, "You are such a black-hearted person. You are such a grown man, yet you bully a little girl, huh?!"
Gu Yan's head was already dizzy, and this shaking made his head toss up and down and left and right, making him feel so uncomfortable that he kept rolling his eyes.
When Yan Su listened to what Uncle Chen said, the emotion in her heart reached its peak.
It seems that there are still many good people in this stupid world.
Uncle Chen kept shaking Gu Yan in his hand, his eyes red as he roared in a choked voice, "Xiao Su is so miserable. She broke up with her biological father, and her beloved died trying to save her. She worked so hard to raise her son, and now she finally found a new boyfriend, but he's a gigolo who depends on her for support. And you, a black-hearted and rotten-hearted person, actually bullied her!"
Yan Su: “…”
Uncle, there is no need to talk about the rumors that followed, and you said it so sincerely and with tears in your eyes.
Bai was moved.
This is a world of stupidity, and this is the boss of stupidity.
Finally, Gu Yan couldn't stand the repeated torture anymore, and fainted again with his eyes rolled back and foam coming out of his mouth.
