Poverty story after Tokyo actress

Seeing that Zhen Xu didn't leave, Jiang Bai was relieved, and gently closed the door.

She was quite worried that Mao would leave Makoto's house alone without saying a word. After all, the relationship between the two of them was very stiff, and Mao was still in a state of hangover, so she was quite worried about staying in the villa alone.

Even when he left in the morning, Jiang Bai thought about locking the door, but in the end he gave up this behavior because it was really rude to the guests.

Seeing that Zhen Xu didn't leave alone, Jiang Bai was relieved.

There is no problem with Mao, so the rest is to solve the problem of food.

After Mao opened his eyes in his sleep and looked at the gradually dimming sunlight outside the window, he got up from the bed, touched his aching head, then reached out to touch the medicine on the bedside, and put it in his mouth , then took a sip of water and swallowed it...

Um?The water is hot?Has anyone replaced it for themselves?

Feeling the warmth in his stomach, Mao finally realized that the cold water he left before going to bed at the head of the bed had been replaced with hot water. Someone came back?It should be Jiang Bai... My sister would never do this kind of thing...

Mao resolutely dissed her sister in her heart, then lifted the quilt and opened the door to go downstairs, but before she could go down the stairs, she was already attracted by the fragrance in the air...

It seems to be the smell of broth, such a strong smell of meat, even someone like Mao who has experienced many meals, has never felt it. This scent gently teased her nasal cavity, and then penetrated into her body, and searched lift her stomach.

It made her even more hungry and unbearably hungry, and the saliva had unknowingly filled her mouth, so she had to take a sip to prevent it from flowing out.

Although there was a voice reminding her that she needed to be reserved, she couldn't help but twitched her nose, greedily stealing the aroma in the air, and the more she stole, the hungrier she was, and the hunger made her walk down the stairs faster footsteps.

In the end, she walked into the kitchen with wide-eyed eyes, staring straight at the stew pot that was constantly seeping out the aroma. The pot was gurgling and boiling, and every time the boiling bubbles burst, it released a captivating aroma.

When she came back to her senses, she found that Jiang Bai was looking at her suspiciously, and she froze slightly in embarrassment, then pointed to the saucepan and asked: "Shu Liu... that, what is stewed in the pot?"

"Ah, stewed pork ribs, but they haven't been stewed yet, so even if you want to eat, you have to wait."

Looking at Zhen Xu's straight eyes, Jiang Bai immediately understood that she was hungry.

The spare ribs are not stewed well, so naturally they can't be eaten by Zhen Xu, but even if there is no food, Jiang Bai can make it, not to mention, there are ready-made ones.

"Would you like to eat a pan-fried bun?"

"Fried buns?"

…………

"Uh... Huh! It's hot! Huh! The soup is bursting out!"

"Hahaha, don't eat it too fast. You don't eat raw pan-fried buns like this. You need to make a small opening in the soft place, then suck out the soup inside, drink it up, and then eat it."

"Huh? There is such an interesting way to eat."

"There are many interesting things to eat. If you want to eat in the future, I can make them for you."

"..."

What she said was quite embarrassing to Mao, she brushed her hair in embarrassment, then turned the embarrassment into appetite, and finished the few small fried buns in front of her.

Fried buns tend to be fresh and salty. When the fried buns were eaten, Jiang Bai had already brought a bowl of egg drop soup to her.

Feeling the smooth dining service comparable to a top western restaurant, Mao felt sore for a while, it was none other than his sister Makoto who was sour.

Does this younger sister usually live like this?No wonder she is always reluctant to go home!

Why can she dig a top nanny like Jiang Bai, but she has to guard the empty door in that big house where no one has come home? Really... so unconvinced...

While drinking the soup, Zhen Xu felt unconvinced and awkward in his heart, or should I poach Jiang Bai away?I don't know whether Jiang Baitong agrees, it should be fine to ask a good price...

Just when she was thinking about it, Jiang Bai walked to her side and said, "Miss Zhenxu, I agree."

"Ah? Agree? True or false?"

"Of course it's true."

"Haha...uh...cough cough, that means you are willing to go with me?"

"...Although the statement is awkward, it is indeed..."

This agrees?so easy?It seems that I haven't negotiated the price yet, tsk, so free?What a good girl~

But what Jiang Bai said next completely shattered Mao's imagination: "Then can you talk about the arrangements related to variety shows? I don't know what I should do after I go there."

"Variety show?!"

Zhen Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he and Jiang Bai were not talking about the same thing.

"That's right... Didn't you ask me if I want to participate in the life challenge? I agree." Jiang Bai couldn't help but keep his eyes on Zhen Xu's suspicious expression, "So... Miss Zhen Xu, what you were thinking just now What is it?"

"..." In an instant, an embarrassing emotion rushed into her heart, making Zhen Xu wish to find a hole to get in. She quickly turned her head and lowered her head to drink the soup, and stopped looking at Jiang Bai's face. God knows what outrageous things she was thinking.

"Ahem, that... ah, I'll arrange the arrangement for the variety show for you tomorrow, and you'll know after a while... Also, the soup is delicious! Hahaha..."

"..."

This topic is really blunt...Jiang Bai couldn't help complaining in his heart, but he didn't get to the bottom of it, but said softly, I know, which is a tacit approval of Zhenxu's muddle through.

And this also made Shino couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, has he been single for a long time?How could there be such a natural thought...

Chapter 170 Mystery makes women more attractive

"How's the filming of the Chainsaw Man going?"

"Most half of the filming has been completed. If there is no accident, we will be able to enter post-production in a few weeks."

"In a few weeks? Well... our rivalry seems to be coming soon."

Sitting at the dining table, Jiang Bai and Zhenqin, who had just returned home, were eating and chatting, while Zhenxu, who was a guest, sat next to Zhenqin, silently tasting the dinner made by Jiang Bai.

Mao ate very little Chinese cuisine, and most of them were Japanese-style Chinese cuisine, which was quite different from Jiangbai's Chinese cuisine, and generally not as delicious as Jiangbai's.

The dinner seemed to be because of the guests. It was quite rich, with four dishes and one soup, a pot of braised pork ribs with yam, a plate of tender tofu, a plate of fried pork, a plate of stir-fried cabbage, and a can of egg drop soup.

Every dish is something Mao has never tasted before, and every bite is an enjoyment that taste buds have never had before. After the meal, a bowl of egg drop soup rolled into my stomach.

ah ~ heaven ~

In addition to the delicious food, this dinner also brought something that Mao has been pursuing, fireworks.

She looked at her younger sister, who was usually silent at home, chatting with Jiang Bai constantly at the dinner table.

Even though many of these small talk are just daily gossip without the slightest practical facts, it is this kind of daily triviality that is the life that Mao has always yearned for.

Mao likes to watch soap operas, because the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys in the family caused by trivial matters in soap operas are always lacking in Mao's life.

That's why she created a variety show called "Life Challenge", which allowed a group of outstanding actors to get rid of everything and become ordinary people running for their lives.

At the beginning, Mao didn't even think that this variety show would become popular, she just wanted to see how the stars would react to the trivial things in life after taking off their bright clothes.

But it seems that the audience is quite curious about this kind of thing, so it became popular for no reason.

After it became popular, in order to maintain the attractiveness of the big challenge of life, Za gradually improved in the next few seasons, adding more and more other rules and activities.

The ratings went up, and so did the level of interest, but Mao felt that it was becoming more and more boring, so she left the management of the variety show "Life Challenge" to other people.

However, in this period of life's big challenge, Zhen Xu has plans to supervise himself, because of the woman in front of him, Jiang Bai.

"In other words, Jiang Bai, do you have any ideas about the development of our family?"

Zhen Xu suddenly asked Jiang Bai.

"what?"

Jiang Bai was taken aback for a moment, a little surprised by Zhenxu's sudden inquiry, and Zhenxu on the other side

"Ahem, old lady, Jiang Bai and I are friends. Everything I do to her is in my own name and has nothing to do with the family business. Don't think about using me to take Jiang Bai away."

"..." Zhen Xu looked at his younger sister speechlessly, and didn't know what was wrong with his younger sister. After wasting so much effort and resources to help Jiang Bai, he actually just became friends with her?

"Ah...well, forget it..."

"No, don't forget about it, we can discuss this after dinner."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Bai did not refuse this request this time. It seems that he is thinking of joining Hoshino Company.

This surprised Zhenqin. I had mentioned this matter to Jiang Bai before, but Jiang Bai refused without hesitation at that time. Why is he softening and ready to agree now?

Although she was full of doubts, she didn't show any displeasure. Rather, she was a little lucky?Jiang Bai finally figured it out?

After eating, Jiang Bai stood on the balcony, watering the budding roses, and chatting with Mao.

"Speaking of which, if I join Hoshino Corporation, how will I be treated?"

"Don't worry, with your rising popularity and your own strength, the salary is naturally not low, let alone..." Saying this, Mao cast a glance at Makoto who was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

On the surface, Makoto was turning on the TV, but her attention had been on the two people on the balcony. When Mao glanced over, she suddenly averted her gaze.

This little action can't be hidden from Zhen Xu, and it also makes Zhen Xu quite curious, what did Jiang Bai do to take care of his younger sister so obediently...

Hiss, thinking about my day here, it seems that there is nothing strange about it.

If it's me, Jiang Bai, a cohabitant who can accompany me, take care of me, and chat with me every day, should pay no less attention than Zhenqin.

The realization of Zhenxu also told Jiang Bai that she has such a backing as Zhenqin. Regarding this, she smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Actually... how should I put it, I didn't want to join Hoshino Company at first. After all, after joining the company, there are many restrictions, and I'm a lazy kind of person..."

"I have seen your recent work, the kind of work density, but it has nothing to do with laziness."

Zhen Xu chuckled and teased Jiang Bai, a tired guy.

In this regard, Jiang Bai smiled and shook his head, there is really no way...

"I can't help it. After all, I'm in debt. I have to work hard. I work hard now so that I don't have to work hard in the future. That's probably what it means."

Shino raised his brows lightly, this idea is quite interesting, did not expect Jiang Bai to have this kind of thinking inside?

"I'm in debt... I'm quite curious. I looked at your financial situation. Is it because you owe so much money to trade stocks with leverage? Um...how should I put it, I can't believe it, you would Do this kind of thing."

"..." Jiang Bai suddenly couldn't help leaving a few drops of cold sweat. How should I put it, basically, after a person knows how "I" owes money, I can't help but ask why, but, that's why, Jiang Bai There is no way to answer.

After all, she can't say that she has replaced the previous Jiang Bai, can she?

"This, young and immature."

Helpless, Jiang Bai can only move out this omnipotent answer and get away with it.

Although this sentence is not convincing at all, but this sentence is so clever that you can't refute it.

Seeing that Jiang Bai didn't want to answer the truth, Shino didn't choose to ask, but shifted to another question: "Well... let's say this is the case, then, can you tell me why you didn't want to join our company before, but now Did you choose to join again?"

"This..." Jiang Bai paused, turned his head to look at Zhenqin, then smiled helplessly, and replied: "Because I am really embarrassed to continue like this, I know that Zhenqin used the resources of the Hoshino family to help I did a lot of things."

"Whether it's helping me find a crew, planning for me, or the previous concert... How should I put it, now I owe Makoto a lot, and I owe the Hoshino family a lot, so much that I might... I won't even be able to attend in my life." ..."

"So, I was thinking, if I act like this and don't ask for anything, and enjoy the resources that Zhenqin gave me, wouldn't I just be a bitch and still set up an archway? How to put it, I can't bear it."

Although Jiang Bai's answer was a bit out of Zhen Xu's expectation, it was reasonable. She thought Jiang Bai would say something about the difficulties in life. It would be easier to do so, but in the end Jiang Bai's answer was that he couldn't bear it.

Becoming a whore and erecting a torii... Although it is vulgar, it is quite incisive.

"But in today's society, are there still few people who are bitches and set up archways? Why don't you choose to be cheeky and continue to enjoy the resources that Makoto gave you? Anyway, my sister is so self-willed, in her opinion, it's just a little resource..."

"...Because I've seen it before."

"Ok?"

"I've seen those actors at the lowest level, for a third-line supporting role, with a salary that lasted a meal, nested in a small space of a few square meters, or simply lived in the crew, just for a few minutes or even a few minutes. Seconds of footage."

"Among those people, it's not that there are people who are stronger than me. There are many people with potential. They are working hard just to get a little opportunity and resources, but I can easily obtain resources that they can't pursue."

"When I think about it, I'm always thankful, but I'm also irritated by the fact that, in my opinion, I'm depriving the future of those who should have those opportunities, and I'm depriving others of their future. And glad..."

Regarding Jiang Bai's words, Shino shook his head, and seemed to have a different idea: "I don't think so, you think from the bottom of the actors and actors, and think that as long as there are talented people, they will have opportunities... "

"But unfortunately, you are wrong. Opportunities are never given to talented people. Opportunities are given to people with capital. Only people with capital can seize opportunities with capital. As for the actors you mentioned who received meager pay, It's a pity that most of them will never have a chance."

"So, you are not robbing resources from them, you are robbing resources from those who have capital. In fact, you have done a good job, because after you get those resources, you can make those things Produce excellent finished products, unlike some people, who have no capital and no ability, and resources are pure waste in their hands."

Saying that, Zhen Xu couldn't help stomping his feet lightly, and Jiang Bai listened silently, and asked with a chuckle: "...Are you comforting me?"

"I'm just telling the truth."

"... Haha, maybe you're right. What I think doesn't exist. It's really my sentimentality, right? But... if I don't have this sentimentality, I might not be an actor."

"...I think there should be a better word to describe your mentality."

"Oh? What words?"

"Compassionate and compassionate."

"...I don't think this word is so nice. It feels like I am overlooking the world from above. I am not qualified to pity others, I just feel unfair."

"But I can't do anything to change the society, so I can only try to keep myself what I should be. But even so... I also feel that I have become bad..."
