Chapter 261: Does She Misunderstand Something About Being Poor?

Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Does She Misunderstand Something About Being Poor?

Xiao Chen’s dark eyes glanced at her, and she immediately got the hint and shut her mouth.

Jiang Ying turned to Yun Yue and said, "Sister Yue, the idol is still next door, but she probably won’t come out for a while."

The two comparison kings were currently pulling her into their competitive chat, and what she dreaded most was the two of them getting together.

Yun Yue’s delicate eyebrows slightly raised as she unlocked her phone, her fingers slender and fair, with rounded tips and neatly trimmed, absolutely gorgeous hands.

Jiang Wenshan was chatting merrily when his phone suddenly rang. He glanced at it and saw a familiar avatar, immediately picking up the phone and seriously unlocking it to enter WeChat.

Seeing his beloved disciple address him with such a commanding tone irritated him.

Right then, Yaonan was proudly boasting, "Look how well-behaved my disciple is."

Jiang Wenshan sent an okay emoji back grumpily and huffed, "Yingtao has always been well-behaved, no need for you to say it."

His precious disciple was not only obedient but also filial, frequently bringing him medicinal herbs. His robust health at nearly seventy owed much to her "blessings."

Jiang Wenshan gave Ruan Yingtong a look and raised his glass, "Come on, let’s old folks have a drink, and let the younger ones gather on their own."

Ruan Yingtong’s eyes were moist and lucid, blinking as her smile deepened, "Teacher, I’m going to the restroom."

Yingying and Jiang Qi must have already gone to Yueyue’s side. If it weren’t for the old men insisting on keeping her there, she would have hurried over long ago.

"Go ahead, go ahead," Yaonan waved his hand, not intending to keep her tied down, as young people have their own way of socializing.

"Sister Brother, are you coming?" Ruan Yingtong quietly asked. He knew everyone next door, and they were all young, so they probably had common topics to discuss.

Gu Cong chuckled lightly, "You go ahead, I’ll stay here to keep Teacher company."

Would they be able to eat if he went?

Today was about giving his little apprentice some face.

Ruan Yingtong nodded lightly, having already changed out of her gown. She stepped out and gently closed the door, making a detour to the restroom first but unexpectedly overheard her own name.

"I didn’t expect Ruan Yingtong to play the piano so well, and now having become Master Yao Nan’s disciple with Lou Ting behind her, her momentum is even bigger than Shiyan’s, the hottest star in the entertainment circle. She’s bound to blow up sooner or later," Liu Ruijia said jealously while sitting on the toilet, almost grinding her teeth in envy.

She was extremely unwilling to lose the female lead in "Molan Pavilion" last time, and after fighting hard, she just landed a minor role in a movie upon returning from filming abroad. Yet now, Ruan Yingtong’s fame had exploded uncontrollably.

The tallest building in the city center had replaced its LED screen with Shiyan for her, demonstrating just how in-demand she was!

"I heard recently that Director Zhang has a new major series. You could try for it. Even if you don’t surpass her by becoming the female lead, being on par with her is also feasible."

Liu Ruijia was ecstatic, lifting her phone, "Really? Why didn’t I see Director Zhang mention it?"

"Just trust me, I heard from inside sources. Getting a head start means you’ve already won half the battle."

Liu Ruijia hung up the phone, gripping her mobile tightly, her eyes revealing a determination to win.

No matter what it took, she was determined to land the female lead, or at the very least, the supporting female lead. She absolutely would not let Ruan Yingtong get any part in this series.

Every female role in Director Zhang’s dramas could become popular.

Shiyan had indeed become the hottest actress in the entertainment industry and won countless awards thanks to a role as a maid in one of his dramas.

Ruan Yingtong stood in front of the sink, listening to her entire conversation, discarding any comments made about herself to the back of her mind.

Director Zhang’s new series?

Hearing the flushing sound from inside the toilet, she quickly dried her hands and left the restroom, picking up her phone to call Sun Hong.

"Sister Sun, does Director Zhang have a new series recently?"

She was actually quite hopeful about working with Director Zhang; the roles in his dramas were challenging and really tested one’s acting skills, providing a great opportunity for polish.

"You don’t know? Then go find out..."

She hung up the phone at the entrance of Shangyi Residence and then pulled the door open and walked in.

"Yingtao, you actually managed to get away," Jiang Ying said, somewhat shocked to see Ruan Yingtong come in. Those two let you go?

Seeing Ruan Yingtong approaching, as the pampered and spoiled heiress of the Jiang Family, she took the initiative to pull out a chair for her to sit in.

Jiang Qi looked on with a hint of jealousy, casting a vinegar-filled glance at Ruan Yingtong.

Ruan Yingtong smiled and put down her phone, "Yeah, they wanted to drink, so I came out."

The waiter quickly set the dishes on the table, all of which Xiao Chen had specifically ordered Tianshi Restaurant to make.

Jiang Qi was puzzled, "Why are there two dishes that look exactly the same?"

Jiang Ying picked up a piece of her usually favorite dish, tasted it, and spat it out, her eyes widening in astonishment, "Why is it sweet?"

Did Tianshi Restaurant change chefs?

How can you eat something this sweet?

Xiao Feng had been cooking to suit a young child’s taste these days, eating sweets every day, so he thoughtfully prepared several bottles of chili sauce, indulging Master Chen’s whims.

Xiao Chen rarely explained, "I ordered two flavors to be made, one sweet and one spicy."

Yun Yue glanced at him subtly, his distinctively boned hand holding chopsticks as he served himself a half-bowl of vegetables.

Jiang Ying saw that he picked all the sweet-flavored ones and understood without further question, and she cleverly went for the dishes with chili peppers.

Beijing doesn’t eat spicy, but it is supposed to have a hint of spice. The dish she just ate had no spice at all, sweet to the point that she couldn’t eat her meal.

Isn’t Sister Yue from Lan City, where people supposedly love spicy food the most?

Yet Ruan Yingtong seemed to be eating happily, not afraid of the spice at all.

After dinner, the group insisted on escorting the two of them back. Jiang Ying simply wanted to know where Ruan Yingtong lived, to make it easier to visit her later, and Jiang Qi was following Jiang Ying.

Upon reaching the door, Ruan Yingtong felt bad not inviting them in, "Why don’t you come in and sit? My place is quite fun."

Everyone instinctively looked towards Xiao Chen, Jiang Ying’s eyes full of hope, almost wishing she could answer for him immediately.

Xiao Chen looked down at the figure that had already gone inside, his long legs taking him in after her.

Jiang Ying was the second to follow, about to take out her phone to snap some photos for her Moments, but she ruefully stuffed her phone back into her pocket.

She really wanted to share with her Yingtao followers, but taking photos without Yingtao’s permission would be inappropriate.

"Holy crap! A crystal piano!"

All eyes followed hers to spot the piano not far away, a flicker of astonishment passing through their gazes.

Jiang Ying’s eyes widened in a look of naivety.

Isn’t that the world’s most expensive piano?

It is... right?

Ruan Yingtong nodded, "Yes, that’s the one, the first piano Yueyue gave me."

Jiang Ying was so shocked she was at a loss for words. She remembered that when she introduced Sister Yue at the banquet, she mentioned the first piano Sister Yue bought for her.

She remembered that Yingtao was very poor as a child, a kid from a poor village, so was Sister Yue from a poor village too?

Is she misunderstanding poverty?!
