Cats won't turn down money.
Seeing that no one spoke, Yun Jin turned around and was startled by the production crew behind her.
Compared to the relaxed atmosphere at the beginning, the entire film set seemed to have been reset.
The production assistant, who had been in a daze, had already raised her phone. Several photographers who had been chatting quickly grabbed the best positions, and even Shen Yi'an's own assistant, Yan Fei, lay down on the ground, pointing the camera directly at Shen Yi'an and himself.
Yun Jin placed one paw on Shen Yi'an's leg, while the other paw left afterimages in the air.
"Meow! Awooo! -- Help!"
"Meow! Meow meow! -- Call an ambulance!"
"Ouch! Ouch! -- Stop filming! Can't you see I'm sweating from the pain?!"
Of the people taking photos, only Yun Chen understood, but she was squeezed behind the crowd and couldn't help in this situation.
Yun Jin was so anxious that she spun around on the spot, her fluffy tail slapping the floor with a "pat-pat" sound, almost starting another tap dance.
After a while, Liu Li finally spoke up: "Cut! Quickly take Teacher Shen to the rest room!"
Yun Jin breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Yi'an was slowly helped away by the staff. Before leaving, he looked back at her and there was a faint smile on his lips.
Yun Jin: These humans are hopeless.
After the crisis was over, Yun Jin collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon, and Yun Chen quickly caught this withdrawn little cat ball.
Yun Jin's ears were soft and floppy, her big, round eyes were round, and her long fur all over her body exuded a sense of grievance.
"Won't it have any impact on him, like, will he be unable to have children in the future?" Yun Jin's voice was weak. "I really didn't mean to... I was distracted and didn't watch where I was going..."
Yun Chen squeezed her soft breasts and comforted her, "It's okay, sis. A man's thing isn't that fragile. There have been tennis players who were hit in the groin by tennis balls during matches and were still able to continue playing."
"I don't want to film anymore, I feel like his fans will kill me!" Yun Jin's round eyes gradually lost their sparkle. "Is it too late to run away now?"
"It's hard to say, but Liu Li seems quite satisfied with this shoot." Yun Chen picked up Yun Jin and silently walked out of the filming location.
"Filming like this?" Yun Jin hugged her big tail. "It feels so dangerous!"
"Sis, what they're afraid of more than danger is the lack of data," Yun Chen said, finding a chair to sit down. "Let's eat something first. Everything will be alright."
Yun Chen unscrewed the mineral water bottle, poured in some water, and placed two small dried fish next to it.
Yun Jin licked the water half-heartedly, sighing every few licks.
"Sis, if you don't want to film, we can refuse. Anyway, we haven't reached an agreement yet." Yun Chen patted her big tail.
When Yun Chen's hand touched the wound on the tail, Yun Jin suddenly bristled: "The payment... how did the payment negotiations go?"
Yun Jin's large tail swayed unnaturally from side to side, perfectly demonstrating what it means to "change the subject out of guilt."
“The current offer is 500,000 for 12 installments.” Yun Chen waved his phone, the screen displaying a list of offers for other animal actors. “But I feel like I’m being undervalued.”
She turned her phone screen towards Yun Jin.
Yun Jin quickly scanned the salaries of these popular pets. A corgi in the variety show "Cats and Dogs War" was paid 800,000 yuan per episode, an orange cat starring in the movie "Far Away" released last year was paid 1.2 million yuan, and a husky, the star of a pet supplies advertisement, was paid 600,000 yuan...
"So many?!" Yun Jin's beard trembled violently, and he slammed his paw on the screen. Money symbols immediately appeared in his round eyes.
“I could actually continue filming,” Yun Jin said coquettishly, rubbing against Yun Chen’s hand. “I don’t care if I get scolded.”
Yun Chen swiped her phone screen, then suddenly saw something and turned the screen towards Yun Jin: "Sis, look at this."
Yun Jin saw a carefully edited video playing on her phone screen titled "The Complete Record of Teacher Shen's 'Beat' by an Adorable Cat on Set."
"How much time has passed?" Yun Jin's long tail suddenly froze as she looked at the rapidly scrolling comments in the comment section:
[Help! How come my little flower girl walks on such silky smooth ground?]
I've seen Teacher Shen's pained expression at least ten times, hahaha...
[Little Three Flower Sister was getting really anxious; her little paws were practically blurring out of existence.]
This guy really suffered a lot; my cat stepped on me too.
[Isn't this Yun Miaomiao, whom I followed before? How come she's on a variety show?]
"I've become famous now, haven't I?" Yun Jin unconsciously searched for negative comments. "Won't a lot of people be cursing me too?"
Yun Chen smiled and continued to scroll down, revealing even more astonishing data: the hashtag #ShenYiAn'sSweetBurden# had already climbed to number 8 on the trending searches.
Yun Jin jumped onto Yun Chen's shoulder, her fluffy tail unconsciously slapping her sister's arm. She stared at the data still soaring on her phone screen, "At such a fast pace, could it be the production team or Shen Yi'an who did it?"
"Da, da, da."
The sound of high heels clicking on the ground grew louder as Liu Li held a newly printed contract in her hand.
She raised her red lips slightly and glanced at Yun Jin: "Teacher Yun, we still need to discuss the contract details further."
Yun Chen picked up Yun Jin: "She has to come along."
Yun Jin nervously clung to her sister's arm as they returned to the small room together.
Back there, Liu Li pretended to be relaxed and sat down next to Yun Chen.
It must be said that Liu Li's cat-petting technique is quite professional. She inserts her five fingers into Yun Jin's fluffy neck fur and precisely finds the spot where Yun Jin can relax.
"Oh dear, I really underestimated Xiaoyun just now. That video has gone viral, and Teacher Shen has gotten a free trending topic."
Looking at Yun Jin's worried face, Yun Chen asked on her behalf, "Teacher Shen... are you alright?"
"The doctor has seen me, and I'm fine," Liu Li said with a smile as she opened the contract.
She turned the document around, pointed to the number with many zeros, and said, "We will increase the salary to one million."
Yun Jin's pupils dilated instantly as she looked back and forth in disbelief.
But Yun Chen remained unfazed: "What about the other things we agreed on? For example, the duration of a single shoot?"
“Five days a week, six hours a day.” Liu Li pointed to the newly added supplementary clauses. “Of course, we also accept Ms. Yun’s other requests.”
Yun Chen pressed further, "Does that include... changing the artist you're working with?"
“Oh, of course!” Liu Li lifted the brocade up. “Who wouldn’t want to work with Lucky Cat right now?”
Seeing that his older sister was already completely smitten with the million-dollar salary, Yun Chen signed the contract after confirming that there were no problems with it.
"Ms. Yun Chen, I wish us a pleasant cooperation." Liu Li put away the contract and extended her hand to Yun Chen.
"Meow!" Yun Jin's fluffy paw suddenly landed on it. "That's great!"
This made the two people present burst out laughing.
There was a gentle knock on the door, which Yun Jin quickly noticed. She looked towards the doorway, and suddenly a ray of golden hair, like sunlight, peeked through the crack.
A young girl crouched down and slipped into the room. The moment Yun Jin saw her clearly, her pupils dilated.
Her long, golden hair cascaded down her back in waves with her movements, freckles dotted her cheeks, her lake-green eyes were like jewels, and her skin was an unusual wheat-colored complexion.
“Meow—foreigner,” Yun Jin tilted her head and looked at her.
It was only then that Liu Li noticed her.
"Oh làlà~" The girl rushed over in a flash, carrying the scent of sun-dried cotton and linen. "Is this the little kitten that made Teacher Shen trip?"
Her Chinese has a cute rolled "r" sound, and her long eyelashes flutter like two small fans.
"Meow... Meow? -- Wow, beautiful sister!" Yun Jin's voice was eight octaves higher than usual.
“I came to find you as soon as I got off the bus,” the girl buried her face in Yun Jin’s belly, her nose rubbing against the soft white fur. “Wow, how come your fur is so long and soft!”
"Waaah—" Yun Jin struggled in Ding Zhizi's arms, her paws helplessly patting the other's hoodie with a cartoon cat head printed on it.
"Woof." Baoli nimbly slipped through the crack in the door and came to Ding Zhizi's side.
Yun Jin and Bao Li exchanged a glance; clearly, both the cat and the dog were on the verge of losing their composure.
"Meow meow meow! -- Why does such a beautiful lady have such an annoying dog?" Yun Jin was heartbroken.
"Woof woof woof! -- Get down from my owner's lap, you stinky cat." Polly grumbled and moved closer to her owner.
"She's a little tired today." Yun Chen rescued his sister at the right time and gently smoothed Yun Jin's ruffled hair.
“I’m sorry, I’m just too happy,” she said, squatting down. “My name is Ding Zhizi, and this is my dog named Baoli.”
Ding Zhizi leaned close to Bao Li's ear and said, "Say hello to everyone."
"Sis, don't you like her?" Yun Chen looked down at Yun Jin, whose face was full of displeasure, and whispered in her ear.
“No, I don’t like her dog,” Yun Jin said, her feelings complicated. “It’s very arrogant and annoying!”
With a snap of Ding Zhizi's fingers, Baoli immediately performed her signature moves: spinning around, bowing, and shaking hands.
Liu Li complied with the praise and then began her commercial flattery. Ding Zhizi looked mature, but she couldn't handle Liu Li's old tricks and blushed after a few rounds.
Yun Chen patted Yun Jin's head and said in a low voice, "Big sister, her name is Ding Zhizi. She is of mixed race and has a mother who is strict to the point of being abnormal. She is one of the celebrities who has the fewest scandals among those participating in the show. I think it is a better choice to work with Ding Zhizi."
Yun Jin expressed her incomprehension.
Yun Chen continued, "Sis, actually, your kick turned Shen Yi'an from a 'womanizing scumbag' into an 'unlucky handsome guy.' A lot of his scandals have also been turned into entertainment. He'll definitely strike while the iron is hot and cooperate with us."
Yun Jin suddenly remembered Shen Yi'an's line from the recording of him sleeping with a fan: "It's your honor that I can sleep with you." She remembered the photo of Shen Yi'an, dressed in a sharp suit, throwing his girlfriend into the mud. She remembered the chat logs where he told his girlfriend to have an abortion...
"Click".
The clanging of metal at the door startled Yun Jin from her thoughts.
Shen Yi'an had already leaned against the door frame and was walking towards them.
"Teacher Shen," Ding Zhizi greeted him as she rushed forward, "Are you alright?"
Shen Yi'an put on a professional smile, "It's alright, Xiaoyun is very light."
“Teacher Shen, Xiaoyun and I feel very sorry,” Yun Chen carefully chose his words before stepping forward to face Shen Yi’an. “Xiaoyun and I are a little embarrassed to see you.”
Yun Jin covered her head with her tail, not daring to look at Shen Yi'an.
“Xiaoyun can take pictures with me, I’m not afraid of stepping on her,” Ding Zhizi volunteered immediately. “Besides, I’m a fan of Xiaoyun!”
"Xiaoyun, it's okay, I'm fine now." Shen Yi'an's voice was a few decibels lower than usual. He reached out to touch Yun Jin, but Yun Jin dodged away.
Yun Jin decisively turned her head and buried her face in Ding Zhizi's loose golden hair.
She cannot forgive herself for unintentionally becoming a tool for this person to whitewash his image.
How could that monster who was violent towards his girlfriend and indifferent to his children suddenly transform into a "cute and lovable guy" because of her momentary mistake?
As Yun Jin adjusted her position in Ding Zhizi's arms, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a hint of loneliness in Shen Yi'an's eyes out of the corner of her eye.
But when she peeked again, the man had already reverted to his nonchalant expression.
Ding Zhizi took the opportunity to carry Yun Jin away quickly, but she didn't notice that the cat's tail in her arms was no longer wagging.
Yun Jin: This kind of scumbag is the best at lying to cats.
