All the dishes were served, and Shi Xi eagerly and enthusiastically put food on Xiao Wanjun's plate: "Here you are, Wanjun, your favorite sweet and sour pork ribs."
"This new specialty dish is quite good, Wanjun, you should try it."
"Would you like some soup, Wan-jun?"
"This dish, Wan Jun..."
The huge dining table was filled with Shi Xi's voice, and Xiao Wanjun's bowl was piled high with food.
Seeing Shi Xi showing off her love so relentlessly, even the shrewd He Xiangdi almost couldn't maintain his composed smile.
Shi Xi felt like the chopsticks in his hand were about to break, but he still kept happily serving food to Xiao Wanjun.
Xiao Wanjun looked at Shi Xi with a mix of amusement and exasperation, and stopped her, saying, "That's enough, Jiang Feng, stop just piling food on my plate, you eat too."
As she spoke, Xiao Wanjun placed a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl.
999 couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but comment: "Shi Xi, you really look like a little wife serving food to her husband."
"Bullshit! He's clearly a warm-hearted husband who dotes on his wife!" Shi Xi retorted righteously.
He's a genuine 1!
So what if he's a devoted male supporting character? He's still a dominant one.
Shi Xi placed the bamboo shoot slices she was holding into Xiao Wanjun's bowl, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll eat too."
Before I could even pick up my chopsticks, a pair of chopsticks suddenly appeared beside me and snatched the sweet and sour pork ribs from my bowl.
"Jiang Feng doesn't like to eat this."
Shi Xi: "?"
Who says he doesn't like it?
You can eat whatever you want, so why do you say I don't like it?
[Jiang Feng really doesn't like it] 999 said.
[...]
He Xiangdi placed the sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl, adjusted his mindset, and turned his gaze to Xiao Wanjun, "Xiao Wanjun, you don't mind me eating this rib, do you?"
Xiao Wanjun nodded perfunctorily but did not stop him, calmly saying, "It seems I don't know Jiang Feng well enough yet. I will definitely get to know him more deeply in the future."
Shi Xi was caught off guard and choked on her own saliva.
Xiao Wanjun's words were far too suggestive.
For a moment, both of their gazes fell on Shi Xi.
"Jiang Feng, are you alright?"
"Jiang Feng, are you alright?"
Two voices rang out simultaneously.
Shi Xi took the tissue Xiao Wanjun handed her and wiped her mouth.
"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."
Shi Xi left temporarily, giving Xiao Wanjun and He Xiangdi a chance to be alone together.
The following plot involves He Xiangdi reminiscing about the past, and the two having a friendly chat. Then, when he is not around, He Xiangdi confesses his feelings for Xiao Wanjun, but Xiao Wanjun coldly rejects him, saying that he is the only one in her heart.
Shi Xi entered the toilet stall, locked the door, unbuckled her belt, looked at her private parts, and sighed, "What a pathetic person."
This thing is just like having facial recognition installed.
He gets incredibly excited whenever he sees Xiao Wanjun.
Shi Xi was utterly disappointed in him.
He frowned, head bowed in thought, wondering if he should simply solve the problem once and for all—
"Should we just chop this thing up?"
[Stop with your unrealistic ideas! Unless necessary for the plot, staff members are not allowed to damage the characters they are playing!] 999 was so frightened that he almost lost his soul and quickly stopped them.
"Just kidding, I wouldn't actually do that," Shi Xi said. "Cold medicine, can I see what they're talking about?"
[No] 999 didn't hesitate for a second and refused outright.
"Alright." Shi Xi pulled up her pants, washed her hands at the sink, and then squatted down in the corridor to play games.
...
As soon as Shi Xi left, He Xiangdi put down his chopsticks, crossed his long legs, and scrutinized Xiao Wanjun with his cold and sharp gaze.
This was the second time he had met Xiao Wanjun.
He still remembers the scene when they first met, which was three years ago.
Ignoring her assistant's attempts to stop her, Xiao Wanjun rushed into the president's office and pushed open the door.
He was wearing a cheap, faded t-shirt and blue jeans, and was soaking wet.
He was in a terrible state, but his back was ramrod straight.
It was raining heavily outside the window, and thunder flashed by.
The light shone on Xiao Wanjun's pale face, revealing the wildness etched into his bones, which piqued his interest.
He said, "He Xiangdi, I want to sign with Oriental Entertainment."
He leaned back in his chair, his eyebrows slightly raised, his hands clasped under his chin, tilting his head slightly as he looked at Xiao Wanjun and said casually, "Why should I agree to your request?"
Every year, countless men and women want to sign with Oriental Entertainment.
Ordinary people like Xiao Wanjun, who have no background and no fame, all desperately try to get on his bed, stripping naked, just for a chance.
Why should he help a drowning stray dog?
Xiao Wanjun raised her head and looked at him: "I bet I can earn 300 million for Oriental Entertainment in five years."
"What if you can't do it?"
"Then I'll work for Oriental Entertainment for free for twenty years."
He looked at Xiao Wanjun's exceptionally beautiful face and nodded with considerable satisfaction. "Alright, then I'll give you that chance."
He would naturally not refuse a deal that was guaranteed to make a profit.
The next day, Xiao Wanjun signed a betting agreement and became one of the many trainees at Oriental Entertainment.
From then on, he paid no more attention to Xiao Wanjun.
He doesn't need to know the process, he only needs to see the final result.
Either Xiao Wanjun wins, and Oriental Entertainment makes a net profit of 300 million.
Either he wins, or Xiao Wanjun will have worked for him for free for twenty years.
Unexpectedly, the other party abducted Jiang Feng on their second meeting.
Compared to three years ago.
Xiao Wanjun has now undergone a complete transformation.
It was no longer that pathetic stray dog from the rainy night.
He Xiangdi's eyes were cold.
If I had known things would turn out this way, I shouldn't have signed this stray dog in the first place.
I was careless.
In front of Xiao Wanjun, He Xiangdi threw the sweet and sour pork ribs he had snatched, along with the bowl worth four figures, into the trash can.
He parted his thin lips slightly and said meaningfully, "I just remembered, I don't like sweet and sour pork ribs either."
He Xiangdi used words cleverly, deliberately using the word "also".
By inadvertently associating himself with Shi Xi, Xiao Wanjun appears to be an outsider who has interfered.
Xiao Wanjun frowned slightly, her expression gradually turning cold, and said sarcastically, "President He is not very old, but his memory is not very good."
"Perhaps." He Xiangdi didn't take it seriously, and looked at Xiao Wanjun with a cold, venomous gaze that made people feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
"People like Jiang Feng and me might occasionally try street food, but street food is ultimately junk food and will never end up on our dinner tables."
Xiao Wanjun, however, remained calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant: "As long as it's palatable, then it means it suits my taste."
"Isn't that the truth, Mr. He?"
"...That makes sense." He Xiangdi's voice suddenly turned serious: "But you always have to leave after you finish eating."
"No one stays at a roadside stall forever, right, Xiao Wanjun?"
"Mr. He is right, but if you do a good job at a roadside stall, you could easily apply for a private chef position and prepare three meals a day for your customers at their homes. People always have to go home eventually."
Xiao Wanjun slowly ate a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, looked at He Xiangdi, and said, "Besides—"
Even if President He didn't like it, the sweet and sour pork ribs were still put on the table.
