Chapter 880: Chapter 32: Be Careful or You’ll Be Eaten Poor

Yan Yuan pretended to go to the bathroom while holding her phone, speaking to Tang Xirui from a place where Xiao Jiemei couldn’t hear. “Can I bring friends over? I arranged to go shopping with a friend, can’t back out now!”

“Of course!” Tang Xirui didn’t object, it was an honor to treat a beautiful woman to a meal.

Yan Yuan chuckled, “But my side gig is something my friend can’t know about. Just say we’re friends when the time comes.”

“Alright! I’ll follow Yan Yuan’s instructions.”

At noon, Yan Yuan and Xiao Jiemei headed out.

As for the number of people advancing in this contest, it would be announced in the evening.

Now it was everyone’s free time.

On the way, Xiao Jiemei couldn’t help but worry about the advancement results. “Yueyue, do you think I have a chance?”

Yan Yuan nodded, “Absolutely! Don’t worry! You’ll definitely advance.”

“Really? I don’t even know how I performed, if the judges appreciated me.” Despite worrying, she hoped to pass.

And once she passed, she’d worry about the audition in two days.

“Yan Yuan, did you hear? The name of the script for this project has been revealed. It’s called ‘Unforgettable Love’. Although it sounds like a wealthy drama, it’s definitely an eye-catching fantasy drama.” Xiao Jiemei said.

Yan Yuan nodded. “I know it’s a fantasy drama and it’s adapted from a web novel. I’ve read that novel, it’s indeed interesting.”

“Really! Tell me the name of the novel, I’m going to check it out too. So I can be prepared for the audition!” Xiao Jiemei said excitedly.

Yan Yuan told her the name of the novel.

Xiao Jiemei searched for the name immediately and was engrossed in reading it on the way.

Seeing her like that, she probably wasn’t in the mood for shopping anymore.

Yan Yuan straightforwardly chose to go eat first.

The place Tang Xirui booked was high-end, Yan Yuan had lingered there before, smelled the aroma from the restaurant, but never had the money to eat inside.

Now it was fine, she finally had the money to try it herself.

Xiao Jiemei followed her, clearly with her mind entirely on the script. Yan Yuan looked at her speechlessly, “We’re going to eat delicious food now, don’t rush to study the novel. Wait till the script comes out and study the script! It’s said the plot has been changed, only some parts are adopted. Most have been altered beyond recognition.”

“Oh!” Xiao Jiemei put down her phone and widened her eyes, “How could it be ?”

“The novel’s format doesn’t suit TV dramas. If it’s not changed, following exactly would have no suspense. Especially many plots in the novel look good, but if filmed, they would seem dull. The script naturally needs changes to intensify the conflict, to entice viewers to continue watching.”

“So, now reading this is pointless?” Xiao Jiemei exclaimed.

Yan Yuan didn’t even know what to tell her.

“It’s not pointless, just don’t rush to read now! After eating, go back to the dorm and read properly! It’s unsafe on the road!” Yan Yuan finished speaking.

Xiao Jiemei almost bumped into someone.

Resigned, she had to put down her phone, pestering Yan Yuan for plot details.

Yan Yuan was focused on eating, how would she tell her, “After we eat, we’ll talk!”

Thus, she stepped into the restaurant first.

With Tang Xirui having made a reservation in advance, Yan Yuan simply gave his name, and was led upstairs by the waiter.

Tang Xirui hadn’t arrived yet, Yan Yuan ordered plenty of dishes herself.

She was never shy about food, especially when someone else was treating.

She ordered enough dishes to fill up three pages, leaving the waiter in shock.

“Miss, you’ve ordered too many dishes! Can you finish it? The table can’t fit, right?”

Yan Yuan nonchalantly replied, “Just clear away empty plates. Don’t bring all dishes at once when they’re ready, just serve them to me.”

“…” The waiter had never seen such a guest.

So, they followed Yan Yuan’s instructions.

Xiao Jiemei had always known Yan Yuan could eat, but didn’t realize she could eat to this extent.

“Yueyue, you won’t really put on weight, will you?” Xiao Jiemei asked again for confirmation.

Yan Yuan waved her hand confidently, “Of course not! If I don’t eat, I get hungry!”

Yan Yuan waited quite a while, the dishes were on the table, but Tang Xirui hadn’t arrived.

She couldn’t help calling to urge, only to find out that Tang Xirui was caught in traffic.

She had only eaten a bit of breakfast, and was now starving, her stomach growling, especially after singing a song earlier, her breakfast had been completely digested.

Tang Xirui didn’t expect to be stuck in traffic and simply told Yan Yuan to start eating, since it was already one in the afternoon.

Yan Yuan, hearing she could start eating, hung up the phone without any further ado.

In the midst of the waiter and Xiao Jiemei’s stunned gaze, she picked up her chopsticks and devoured the food like a hungry wolf.

Moreover, the dishes were incredibly delicious, she couldn’t help but be deeply captivated by the gourmet dishes.

She ate over thirty dishes, finishing everything that looked good in the restaurant.

Xiao Jiemei rubbed her belly, feeling her worldview was shattered.

She had never seen an actress that could eat .

As a star, you should constantly maintain your figure, not get too fat…

When Tang Xirui arrived, seeing the empty plates on the table, he couldn’t help but twitch his lips when he looked at Yan Yuan.

He hadn’t even seen the empty plates removed by the waiter.

“Girl, didn’t you eat breakfast this morning?” Tang Xirui sat beside her, face full of tenderness.

Yan Yuan, now satisfied, chuckled, “Indeed, I didn’t fill up this morning!”

And she ate the portion Bai Chenxi didn’t want.

Tang Xirui was speechless, this fellow didn’t pay attention to her image, honest and adorable.

The waiter brought a few more dishes at the end.

This time Yan Yuan was full, so she accompanied Tang Xirui, introducing Xiao Jiemei beside her to him.

“This is my friend! Thanks for your hospitality, Mr. Tang, this meal was absolutely delightful.” Yan Yuan raised her wine glass, reverting to a ladylike demeanor.

Xiao Jiemei looked amused, while Mr. Tang appeared refined, also very lively and cheerful, a nice person.

“Sorry for crashing. Thanks, Mr. Tang, for treating us.” She said politely.

Tang Xirui nodded, having a good impression of Xiao Jiemei.

“No need to be polite, since you’re here, make sure to eat your fill!”

Yan Yuan laughed, incredibly sincere, “We definitely didn’t hold back, we ate plenty!”

When it came time to pay the bill, the waiter brought over a thick stack of bills.

Yan Yuan and Xiao Jiemei shrugged helplessly, speaking in unison, “Thanks, Mr. Tang, for treating us!”

“The total is 10,200 yuan, including 100 yuan for drinks!” the waiter said sternly.

Tang Xirui reacted, unable to hold back a laugh, “Foodies!”

“So, next time you say you’re paying, be careful!” Yan Yuan said with a grin. “Be careful not to be eaten poor!”

“I think you, when marrying in the future, must find a wealthy husband. Or you’ll really eat him poor!” Tang Xirui teased.

Yan Yuan didn’t mind, “What’s to fear, in the future I’ll earn even more money, I won’t eat myself poor!”

Tang Xirui thought Yan Yuan had an exceedingly candid personality.
