Chapter 86 Doing What You Want
"Me?" She stammered incoherently, "How could I be? I'm just a nouveau riche who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun. I can't do anything."
"You don't know, do you? I've messed up a lot of things growing up. I'm not as good as my older brothers and sisters!"
She waved her hands repeatedly: "I can't do it!"
Tu Yao seemed oblivious to her unease and deliberate avoidance, and said earnestly, "But I think what you're saying is much more interesting than many of the dramas I've watched."
Cheng Sangsang subconsciously looked at the others.
Xu Bai was still in shock: "I didn't know you had this talent, Little Curly Hair!"
Wen Yu was silent for a moment, then said, "If, and I mean if, you finish writing this script, could I audition for a role?"
“My agent has been scolding me for being unambitious lately, but she doesn’t even look at the scripts I’ve been writing lately, none of them are worth reading.”
"But I like your character design."
Ma Zhiyuan, a well-known online critic, also commented: "That's quite interesting."
Cheng Sangsang: ? ? ? ?
Let's look at the live stream again.
Wow, is curly-haired girl this amazing?
This storyline is a hundred times more fun than the original!
If you film like this, I won't be sleepy anymore!
Cheng Sangsang stood there dumbfounded. "You...you guys are serious?"
She kept repeating, "I can't do it!"
Tu Yao asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why do you think you're not good enough?"
Cheng Sangsang paused for a moment, then said blankly, "Because my life is just about eating, drinking, having fun, and waiting to die."
Tu Yao was taken aback: "Why do you say that?"
Cheng Sangsang: "...Didn't my sister give me that investment company? Doesn't that mean I don't have to suffer and can just happily and carefree wait to collect money?"
"Hey, I actually think this is pretty good. I just need to hand it over to the manager, sign a few papers, and wait for the dividends. Plus the family trust, I'll be rich!"
Everyone: ...
I'm tired of saying the word "envy."
Tu Yao suddenly frowned, as if she had thought of something, and asked abruptly, "Who told you that your sister thinks that way?"
"Of course it's the beginning..."
Halfway through her sentence, Cheng Sangsang's expression changed: "Isn't...isn't that how it is?"
Tu Yao shook her head: "That's not right."
"I think what your sister meant was that you can have different choices and many opportunities to try and fail until you choose a direction you like, and then go for it."
Cheng Sangsang felt a chill run down her spine in an instant, and her eyes reddened.
"Is that what my sister...thinks?"
But……
Cheng Sangsang's mind was in complete chaos.
She recalled the scene when she was invited to the Bai family home for the first time after becoming friends with Bai Chumeng.
Unlike the Cheng family, the Bai family members were engaged in open and covert struggles over their inheritance. They appeared harmonious on the surface, but secretly they were fighting each other.
She was only ten years old at the time and was terrified.
That day, Chu Meng comforted her, wearing almost the exact same clothes as her sister, "Don't be afraid. As long as you listen to your sister, behave yourself, and don't fight with your other brothers and sisters, your family won't end up like mine."
"Is that so..."
"certainly."
Looking at Bai Chumeng, who looked remarkably like her sister, she nodded naturally, though somewhat bewildered.
This statement was accepted.
Since that's the case, she thought she would just be a useless person in peace, so that her deceased sister could rest easy, and so that her other brothers and sisters could rest easy too.
However, she did not realize that she had been led into a misconception.
Let's not even talk about the fact that their family is unlikely to have the same kind of dramatic infighting as the Bai family.
Even if she does not want to compete with her older siblings for the family business, it doesn't mean she has to live a muddled life, nor does it mean she can't have her own dreams!
Cheng Sangsang suddenly stood up and grabbed the paper.
"Wait a minute, I... I'll go and try to write it down!"
After saying that, she ran straight into the small house.
Tu Yao watched her back, then subconsciously looked at Xu Bai, who was building a mushroom house.
Then he moved to the wolf's teeth, hugged the dog's head, and fell into deep thought.
It seems that even before ruining Tu Chaoxi and Nan Ke's careers, Bai Chumeng had been sowing discord between Xu Bai and Cheng Sangsang, and deliberately controlling the direction of their careers...
...But why did she do that?
What does she gain by doing this?
Tu Yao's gaze slowly moved upwards, the progress bar flashing with blue light.
Tu Yao suddenly felt a chill run down her spine!
What Tu Chaoxi, Nan Ke, Xu Bai, and Cheng Sangsang lost—was it what she gained?
...luck?
"What's wrong?"
Tu Chaoxi noticed her unusual behavior and immediately reached out to touch her forehead.
Why is it so cold?
Tu Yao silently hugged his hand, remained silent for a while, and said, "...It's okay, I was just clever enough to figure it out myself."
Tu Chaoxi: ...
"How come you're smart this time?"
Tu Yao said earnestly, "I've found a way to deal with the enemy."
"What should we do..."
Before I could finish asking her the question, Cheng Sangsang ran out.
Clutching a large stack of papers covered in dense writing, she exclaimed excitedly, "Tu Xiaomao, I think I've found something I love to do!"
Xu Bai immediately chimed in, unconvinced, "As if no one else found it, I found it too!"
Next to him was a mushroom house that was more than half-built.
Tu Yao turned to look at Tu Chaoxi and said seriously, "This is the solution."
As soon as she finished speaking, the director suddenly walked over, handed her a small bag, and said with a smile, "...Then, little sister, go do what you want to do."
Tu Yao was stunned, and a strange intuition surged up instantly!
She instinctively opened it and saw a bag of cash.
A full 100,000!
The viewers in the live stream were the first to react.
[Holy crap!!! What's going on? Is the show about to end?]
It's been over a month, and it's almost done according to the original plan.
That's way too fast!
The director quickly explained, "Everyone is right, the show is about to end, and the extra 50,000 is a separate payment from your uncle."
"Uncle, thank you for making such a great contribution to the program. You are a very good girl. Your opportunities will not be limited to this village. You will definitely have a wider world to explore."
His tone was both wistful and regretful.
I feel so lucky because Tu Yao has given me a second spring in my career and I've encountered so many strange and wonderful things.
She also regretted that she wouldn't be able to witness the brilliant future that was destined for her.
Tu Yao wiped her eyes, looked around at the kind eyes she was receiving, suppressed a laugh, hugged the bag of money, and bowed to everyone: "Thank you, uncles!"
Then he immediately rushed out the door, running towards the village entrance with a clear goal in mind.
