Mu Ruo hadn't had time to pay attention to the box office these two days, and her Weibo was not even open. It was only when Zhou Jian mentioned it that she remembered this matter and took out her mobile phone to check.

As expected, the number of Weibo fans increased several times in a short period of time, and there were densely packed red unread messages.

She sat next to Haley and responded to the New Year greetings sent by the crew.

Hailey was a little curious: "Ruoruo, do you want to sign with a company and find a professional agent and assistant?"

Muruo doesn't have such plans for the time being. She can also negotiate for business resources on her own since she has relevant experience in the past.

However, there are also disadvantages to becoming famous.

The most obvious thing is that some people are rehashing what Xia Wanwan said on a variety show a few months ago.

Obviously, they are a movie and an idol drama, two unrelated tracks, but Xia Wanwan's fans inexplicably regard Muruo as a rival.

Muruo could only regard this fate as retribution for being a vicious female supporting role.

Who makes her Xia Wanwan's biggest rival in this book? As the object of the heroine's fear, she deserves to suffer.

Zhou Jian looked at Muruo, then looked towards the door: "Ruoruo, do you think Beichen came here today? Does he want to get you back?"

Mu Ruo didn't think about it at all. She shook her head and suddenly remembered what Huang Xiaoping had told her. Mu Ruo asked, "Why didn't you bring Zeng Xiaoyue home for the New Year?"

Zhou Jian was stunned for a moment: "Her family is sick, and she should be with her family. I still can't be too stingy with her. It's not easy for her as a girl. If I, as her boyfriend, am not generous to her, no one will treat her well. But——"

Muruo: "Hmm?"

Zhou Jian smiled bitterly: "I don't know why, but I feel like my attitude towards her is just like your attitude towards Lu Beichen. It's all one-sided, and I haven't gained anything in return."

Haili also held her chin, as if recalling something: "Ruoruo, I found that the three of us have always been like this since we were young. We can never get what we want."

Mu Ruo wanted family affection and Lu Beichen, but her family forced her to marry Fu Jianzhi for money, and Lu Beichen was with Xia Wanwan.

Zhou Jian wanted a pure love, but his beloved wife married him for money and sent him to prison.

Haley wants friendship and dignity, but her best friends only treat her as a tool, and everyone laughs at her as a follower that no one likes.

Mu Ruo rubbed Haili's hair: "Congratulations, you have discovered the truth of this world."

In the original setting, this vicious trio were all sinners, so how could they deserve everything they desired?

The vicious villain will never be able to possess the thing that he desires most in his life.

"But everything will change." Mu Ruo poured three glasses of red wine, "Starting from this year."

Starting this year, they will say goodbye to the past and become different and shining.

Towards a whole new path.

Zhou Jian and Haili both clinked their glasses with Muruo's.

Muruo took a sip of wine.

Although all the good luck belongs to Lu Beichen and Xia Wanwan.

But if they withdraw and stay away in time, they should be able to avoid some of the inevitable disasters.

"Zhou Jian, how much money do you have recently?" Muruo asked, "I need money urgently recently, can you lend it to me?"

Zhou Jian did not doubt Muruo's words at all: "Okay. I only have 23 million in liquid funds now. Do you think it is enough? If not, I will borrow some from my friends."

Mu Ruo rolled his eyes: "How much living expenses did you leave for yourself?"

"More than a million."

"I want 25 million." Mu Ruo clasped his hands together, "Please, please, live frugally for the next two months, and I will definitely pay you back later."

Zhou Jian has never suffered much from money problems. He is naturally generous and is always willing to help his friends with money and even risk his life for them.

Not to mention Mu Ruo, a good friend whom he treated as his own sister. In the original text, even if Mu Ruo asked him to go to jail, he would do it excitedly, not to mention simply paying money.

He didn't think much about it, had no doubt about Muruo's motives, and quickly transferred the money.

Haili was stunned and hadn't reacted yet: "Ruoruo, my dad has more, do you want more--"

Before she could finish her words, Haley felt Muruo pinch her arm.

Haley realized what might be wrong and quickly shut up.

......

Zeng Xiaoyue has been in great pain these past two days.

The reason why she asked Zhou Jian for so much money was certainly not because someone in her family was sick.

How could being sick cost so much money?

Instead, Wu Shuoliang became addicted to gambling.

Ever since Zhou Jian was unwilling to arrange a high-paying job for Wu Shuoliang, Wu Shuoliang could not find a job and had to let Zeng Xiaoyue support him.

Zeng Xiaoyue originally wanted Zhou Jian to hire Wu Shuoliang as his bodyguard, and paying Wu Shuoliang 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month would be enough.

But after asking Muruo, Zhou Jian was unwilling to let Wu Shuoliang work for him.

Wu Shuoliang has now become a gigolo supported by a woman. He is not willing to live like this and wants to make a lot of money. As a result, he becomes addicted to online gambling.

In just a few months, he lost all the money Zeng Xiaoyue had asked from Zhou Jian.

It was clearly the Spring Festival, but neither of them went home and was still in the rental house.

Wu Shuoliang lost a few more hands, his eyes reddened, and he raised his hand to slap Zeng Xiaoyue: "How come that rich second generation you hooked up with is so reluctant to give you a house? It's New Year's Day, and we still have to squeeze into a rented house!"

Zeng Xiaoyue's ears were ringing from the beating he gave her.

She herself was a little dazed.

How could the boy whom I loved so much become like this?

"Go and ask him for money, and tell him that your family wants to buy New Year's goods." Wu Shuoliang frowned, "Go ahead, you won't fall in love with that rich but heartless guy, will you? If you don't go, I will show him our video and let him know what the noble goddess in his eyes looks like in private."

Zeng Xiaoyue bit her lip and had no choice but to send a message to Zhou Jian, implying that her family had no money to buy New Year's goods and asked Zhou Jian to give her some money.

This time, Zhou Jian took a long time to reply to her.

"I don't have any pocket money, Xiaoyue, you can borrow some from your relatives and friends first."

Zeng Xiaoyue was dissatisfied, so she called Zhou Jian, but the other party hung up.

Wu Shuoliang looked at her: "Where's the money?"

Zeng Xiaoyue frowned: "He won't give it to me today."

Wu Shuoliang punched her: "You didn't go to bed with him behind my back, did you? Is he tired of playing with you, so he doesn't want to pay you anymore?"

Fists fell like raindrops, and when she felt the pain, Zeng Xiaoyue inexplicably thought of Zhou Jian.

Suddenly I felt that Zhou Jian was actually a very good person, and I could get whatever I wanted from him.
