Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder is Very Leisurely

While waiting for her contract to expire, Yu Nuan let loose and lived her life to the fullest.

I don't have a job, and I don't go to the office anymore. I stay at home every day, eating snacks, watching TV series, and occasionally having a sweet phone call with my boyfriend.

Xiaoyu is still Yu Nuan's full-time assistant. Since Yu Nuan has no work commitments right now, Xiaoyu is also taking a break. She visits Yu Nuan every two days to replenish the refrigerator.

Actually, Xiaoyu wasn't a newcomer to the company; she had worked with other artists before, but she wasn't talkative, so those artists didn't like her and didn't use her. After being rejected, Xiaoyu had no work assigned and was constantly ostracized by everyone in the company, until Sister Lan was choosing an assistant for Yu Nuan and immediately picked Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu didn't know much about Yu Nuan at first, but she had heard that Yu Nuan had a good temper. She was happy to be able to follow her, but she was also afraid that she was not good at speaking and would not be liked by Yu Nuan. Now, Xiaoyu has been Yu Nuan's assistant for half a year. After getting along with her, Xiaoyu found that Yu Nuan is really nice. She has no airs of a celebrity and takes good care of the people around her.

Xiaoyu was very fortunate to have met such a good leader as Yu Nuan.

However, as Xiaoyu watched Yu Nuan laughing heartily on the variety show, a hint of worry appeared in her eyes.

Xiaoyu is just a junior assistant and doesn't know what Sister Lan is planning for Yu Nuan. However, Yu Nuan is currently in the rising phase of her career and has a wildly popular variety show. Logically speaking, she should be constantly busy with announcements and wouldn't have time to stay at home for ten days or half a month.

Despite her worries, Xiaoyu couldn't interfere with Yu Nuan's work; it was all handled by Sister Lan.

Yu Nuan watched Xiao Yu stand in front of the refrigerator for a while and asked, "Xiao Yu, what's wrong? Is the refrigerator full and you can't put anything in? I told you a long time ago that you don't need to run around so much. I can't eat that much by myself."

“It’s not full, Sister Yu Nuan. I was just thinking about something.”

After closing the refrigerator door, Xiaoyu sat down next to Yu Nuan and asked indirectly, "Sister Yu Nuan, has Sister Lan gotten you any gigs lately? I've seen people calling Sister Lan every day to invite you to appear on shows and auditions."

"No, I want to rest for a while longer."

Yu Nuan understood what Xiao Yu meant, but the fewer people who knew about her leaving the entertainment industry, the less trouble there would be.

"okay."

Xiaoyu didn't say anything more. She knew that in Yu Nuan's eyes, she was still an outsider compared to Sister Lan.

Xiaoyu just couldn't understand it.

"Alright, Xiaoyu, you should take this time to rest and relax. Don't worry about me."

After Xiaoyu left, Yu Nuan lost all desire to continue watching TV.

Open WeChat and find Grandma.

Having not contacted her grandmother for several days, Yu Nuan made a video call to her.

Now, under Yu Nuan's guidance, Grandma has become quite proficient at using WeChat.

"Grandma, what are you doing?"

"I'm sitting down. Grandma Wang from next door came over for a visit, and we chatted while we made shoe soles."

Living conditions have improved, but the older generation still prefers to sew their own soles and make their own shoes.

Having been frugal her whole life, she couldn't change that overnight. Besides, Grandma Zhao felt that the shoes she made herself were the most comfortable. The shoes she bought looked expensive, but she just wasn't used to wearing them.

"Oh, then Grandma should do less each day and not tire herself out."

Yu Nuan knew that her grandmother couldn't stay idle, and she couldn't persuade her otherwise. She could only ask her to do less each day.

"I know, don't worry about me. Take good care of yourself while you're out there, eat on time, and don't forget to eat when you're busy."

"Yes, I'm not working right now, I'm resting at home. Don't worry, Grandma! I've taken good care of myself and I'm all plump and healthy. Grandma, you should take care of yourself too!"

Grandma Wang chimed in with a smile, "Ayu is so thoughtful, always calling to check on you. My family members, they never call me all year round."

Hello, Grandma Wang.

Yu Nuan greeted Grandma Wang loudly on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, Ayu, you've become even prettier now. It's so good to be a star! You can make a lot of money and we can see you on TV all the time."

When the variety show "Jade Warmth" aired, Grandma Zhao watched every episode without fail, and she would also drag her best friends along.

Everyone felt proud and happy to see Yu Nuan on TV.

"What's so good about it? Things are only getting better this year. In the past two years, I was so busy celebrating the New Year that I didn't have time to come back, and I suffered a lot."

Grandma Zhao said modestly.

Yu Nuan chatted with her grandmother for a while longer before hanging up the phone.

Yu Nuan hasn't told her grandmother about her decision to return to her hometown yet. She's afraid her grandmother won't agree and will feel that she's dragging Yu Nuan down with her.

Yu Nuan decided to act first and inform them later.

Yu Nuan had been staying at home for too long, and everyone at the company was gossiping. Seeing that Sister Lan was busy training new employees, they thought the two had broken up and that Sister Lan was making things difficult for Yu Nuan.

In the end, it alarmed General Manager Li, who called Sister Lan to his office.

"Wang Lanlan, what's going on with Yu Nuan? I heard she's still staying at home without working. How is that possible? Didn't she receive several script offers just a couple of days ago, but none of them were suitable?"

"No, two of the offers are from big-budget productions by well-known directors. I'm still considering which one to choose."

Sister Lan made an excuse to decline.

"Here's what we'll do: tell Yu Nuan to come to the company tomorrow. Her contract is about to expire, so we can discuss renewing it together. If Yu Nuan has any requests, she can bring them up on the spot."

Mr. Li felt that Yu Nuan's refusal to sign a contract and work indicated dissatisfaction with the company's benefits.

He wanted to ask Yu Nuan in person what conditions she wanted.

As soon as Sister Lan saw Mr. Li's attitude, she knew she couldn't make excuses for Yu Nuan anymore, so she had no choice but to agree, "Okay, I'll go back and call Yu Nuan now. If there's nothing else, Mr. Li, I'll go back to work now."

"Okay, let's go!"

After leaving the office, Sister Lan found a place to call Yu Nuan.

"Hey, Sister Lan."

"Yu Nuan, Mr. Li just called me to his office and asked you to tell him that you must come to the company to see him tomorrow. It seems that you can't hide the fact that you don't want to renew your contract anymore."

"I understand, Sister Lan. Thank you."

"There's no need to thank me. I hope Mr. Li won't make things difficult for you tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Nuan took a deep breath.

What's meant to happen will happen; there's no escaping it.

Yu Nuan never expected that after making the decision to retire from the entertainment industry, she would become popular by accident.

At this point, it would be strange if the company let her go. However, Yu Nuan still hoped that the company leaders could understand her and that she could part ways with the company amicably.

That evening, when Yu Nuan video-chatted with Shen Yang, she also had a worried look on her face.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Shen Yang asked with concern.

"It's okay! Are you tired from filming? I've noticed you're getting back to the hotel quite late every day these past few days."

"I'm used to it. Director Li has an event to attend in a few days, so we'll work on filming these next few days. In a few days, we'll give the whole crew a two-day break."
