With global currency devaluation, I'll wear these back and take my whole family flying!

ha?

The smiles on their faces froze, their expressions surprisingly similar, a mixture of confusion and disbelief.

"What did you say?"

Xu Zishan realized what was happening and her brow furrowed, looking as if she doubted that she had misheard.

Wang Chuhan, seeing this, scoffed, "Shen Li costs eight yuan per episode, did you hear me?"

"Impossible, don't try to fool me!" Suspicion crept into Xu Zishan's eyes. Even though Wang Chuhan gave an affirmative answer, she still refused to believe it.

How could a new actor, especially one playing a minor supporting role, be paid per episode? Eight yuan per episode?

This is absolutely impossible.

But looking at Shen Li's calm face in front of her, she subconsciously felt that she wouldn't tell such a childish lie, because such lies are the most fragile and could be exposed at any time.

unless……

Kate Tsui's heart sank, and she pressed, "Who exactly are you playing?"

If it really is eight yuan per episode, then the total salary for the entire show would be over four hundred yuan! A role with that salary is definitely not a minor supporting role!

Shen Li said calmly, "The filming will start in two days, then you'll know."

Xu Zishan had harbored inexplicable hostility towards her from the very beginning, so Shen Li deliberately didn't say it outright, just to make her anxious.

Sure enough, Xu Zishan's brows furrowed with annoyance, and she pressed her repeatedly, "Tell me now, you have to tell me right now!"

Seeing this, Sun Yuan and Zhao Meina simultaneously reached out and pulled Shen Li behind them. Wang Chuhan sneered, "What's your hurry? You'll know when filming starts, won't you? Don't worry, I'll definitely give you a pleasant surprise!"

She went to great lengths to get her family to spend 500 yuan to snatch the role of the second young lady's maid. But Shen Li, by sheer luck, got the chance to play the second young lady herself. Just thinking about how Xu Zishan would have to serve Shen Li tea and water, bow and kowtow to her on set made them feel incredibly happy.

Just imagine how amazing Kate Tsui's reaction will be.

“Ali ignores her, let’s go.”

The group glared at Xu Zishan with disdain, then escorted Shen Li into the store, placing her in the middle.

Even if Xu Zishan was unreasonable, she wouldn't do anything drastic at this moment. She could only watch helplessly as Shen Li left, and her heart, which had been at ease, became even more uneasy.

If Shen Li's role is more important than her own, then wouldn't the role she paid for become a joke?

Thinking about it this way, Xu Zishan felt even more uneasy and agitated.

"I'm dying of laughter. The expressions on Kate Tsui's face were more colorful than a color palette. It was so satisfying to see her get the short end of the stick."

As soon as Wang Chuhan entered the private room, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Sun Yuan looked at Shen Li and praised her, "It's rare for Ali to be so stunned. Although it was just one sentence, it was enough to make Xu Zishan question her life."

Wang Chuhan nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes, when she heard Ali say she was 'eight yuan per episode,' her eyes almost popped out of her head. It was so funny."

Shen Li felt a little embarrassed by what the two said. She rarely made things difficult for others in her life, but Xu Zishan had repeatedly provoked and harassed her, so she couldn't help but retort to her.

Belatedly, I realized that my heart was beating even faster than before.

She's clearly not good at this kind of thing; she scared herself half to death before anything even happened.

Only Zhao Meina remained rational at this moment. Seeing that Shen Li was silent, she couldn't help but remind her: "Li, try to avoid direct conflict with Xu Zishan after you join the crew. Her father is also an investor, and offending her will not do you any good."

Shen Li nodded at Zhao Meina: "I understand. I'll just focus on acting well and not have too much contact with her."

At this moment, the waiter brought the menu, and the group immediately forgot about Kate Tsui and gathered together to order.

After dealing with the school leaders' requests for a group photo, Shen Ci searched for flight tickets back to Shenzhen and Hong Kong on her phone as she walked towards her dormitory.

"Shen, Shen Ci."

As he walked downstairs to the dormitory building, a timid voice called out to him.

Shen Ci looked up in surprise, paused slightly when she saw the other person, and then smiled and greeted him: "Jiang Lingchuan".

Jiang Lingchuan smiled slightly, his fair face still showing some childishness, making him look adorable when he smiled.

He was carrying a shopping bag filled with many things when he appeared downstairs at the girls' dormitory. Shen Ci guessed that he had come to deliver something to Gu Lianxing again.

"Should I call her for you, or should I help you carry it up?" Shen Ci asked politely.

Jiang Lingchuan quickly said, "Then please take it upstairs and just tell her I've been here."

Shen Ci nodded and took the shopping bag, subconsciously glancing at the contents, then widened her eyes in surprise.

I didn't pay attention to the others, but the "sanitary napkin" at the very top was particularly eye-catching.

"You sent her this? Did you buy it?" Shen Ci asked Jiang Lingchuan.

In Shen Ci's mind, many boys are embarrassed to buy sanitary products for girls.

Jiang Lingchuan didn't seem to mind the matter and nodded calmly: "She has a bad memory and doesn't remember anything. Once, she almost embarrassed herself because she ran out of supplies and I didn't buy more in time. So ever since then, I've remembered her dates and will buy them for her two days in advance and send them over."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ci couldn't help but show an expression of utter shock.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Jiang Lingchuan, you're an absolute master servant!" Shen Ci exclaimed in amazement. "You're the most thoughtful guy I've ever met."

Jiang Lingchuan smiled shyly upon hearing this, a blush spreading across his cheeks. He then adjusted his glasses and said, "I'll be going now. Goodbye, Shen Ci."

It's so cute that they even say goodbye so seriously.

Back in her dorm, Gu Lianxing was watching a video on her computer, learning the latest girl group dance, twisting her waist, swaying her hips, and tossing her hair as she danced with great enthusiasm.

Upon seeing Shen Ci return, she swayed her body and walked towards Shen Ci, then hooked her arm around Shen Ci's neck and danced intimately with her: "Darling, am I hot?"

"Spicy, spicy, spicy." Shen Ci nodded in agreement, and seeing that she was about to take a bite, she quickly raised her hand to stop her: "Stop first, Jiang Lingchuan brought you something."

He handed the shopping bag to Gu Lianxing, who glanced at it casually and then put it aside as if she were already used to it.

Seeing this, Shen Ci couldn't help but ask, "Your little servant is quite meticulous; he even remembers dates like this."

Gu Lianxing pursed her lips and said, "My dad paid for his tuition from childhood to adulthood, so it's only right that he does these things."

"Huh?" Shen Ci was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Don't his parents pay for his tuition? He must earn quite a bit as a driver for your family, right?"

Gu Lianxing explained, "He went to private school with me since he was little, and the tuition was not cheap for Uncle Jiang's family. My dad thought he was sensible and insisted that he go to school with me, actually just so that he could take care of me."
