Chen Xixi snorted disdainfully, so full of herself.
Embracing or not, would the netizens even find it sweet?
Like her and Zhou Jinyuan maintaining this sense of measure also feels sweet...
Right?
Chen Xixi couldnât be bothered with Zheng He, and simply rode an electric bike, taking Zhou Jinyuan towards the downtown area.
Along the way, Zhou Jinyuan couldnât help but ask, "Where are we going?"
Chen Xixi refused to be outdone, she didnât believe she couldnât win the sweetness index today without embracing!
"Thereâs a romance that doesnât cost money, Iâll take you on a date!"
A subtle change flickered in Zhou Jinyuanâs eyes, she was taking him on a date?
Now, he was somewhat looking forward to it.
[If you ignore Zheng Heâs character, Zheng He and Hu Yun actually look quite sweet together.]
[Itâs rare for a woman to fancy Zheng He, Zheng He should just secretly rejoice! Just wonder why this woman is out of her mind.]
[Han Qianyi and Wan Chen are also very sweet, they chat while walking, really feels like they are dating!]
[Iâm still more looking forward to President Zhou and Chen Xixiâs duo, whether they can make it or not, President Zhou seems really different towards Chen Xixi, and he canât cook but is willing to personally cook for Chen Xixi without any complaints!]
[Yes, yes, I even have a premonition that President Zhou came for Chen Xixi!]
At a small river in the village, Han Qianyi and Wan Chen got tired and found a clean rock to sit and rest.
"I never asked what your family does?" Han Qianyi curiously chatted.
Dating is about getting to know each other, right? They canât just stick to clingy touches.
Wan Chen casually said, "We sell baby products."
Han Qianyi nodded, selling baby products, probably a bit of money there... no, wait...
Wan Chen cheated in the last show and made one million, and the Mercedes he drove her home in that day, the expenses for a single child are so high, just how much wealth must Wan Chenâs family have?
This is definitely not a little money.
At the very least, it has to be a baby product chain store!
Based on Han Qianyiâs decades of being a bookworm, she speculated, "So, after the program ends, you have to go back home and take over the family business, right?"
When it came to taking over the family business, Wan Chen sighed resignedly, resting his arm casually on his leg, his tone revealing a trace of melancholy, "I came out because I didnât want to manage the baby product stores."
"Oh, so you donât want to inherit the family business, you came out alone to prove yourself, or because you didnât want to inherit the family business, had a fallout with your family, ran away from home, then got your cards blocked and came on the show to earn money for living?"
Wan Chen was stunned, turned his head to look at Han Qianyi, his expression showing a bit of surprise: "How did you guess?"
Han Qianyi smiled, "Itâs written like that in the novels, the Crown Prince runs away from home, gets his cards blocked, then achieves a sweet love story with a destitute girl, so cliché."
After saying that, Han Qianyi felt something was off, she paused for a few seconds, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and looked at Wan Chen in shock: "No way! You really are a Crown Prince!"
Wan Chen didnât like hearing flattery, he frowned slightly, spoke modestly: "What Crown Prince, like I said, my family just sells baby products, quite ordinary."
Han Qianyi: "..." Do you have a misunderstanding of the word âordinaryâ?
Casually pulling out one million, driving around in a Mercedes?
He must be joking in a very ordinary way, right?
If heâs ordinary, then what does that make her?
Her parents scraped together money to send her to learn dancing, although lifeâs better now, debt-free, but to say middle-class, itâs still quite far off.
Let alone an ordinary Mercedes, her family doesnât even have a car with four wheels.
So does that make her a beggar?
"Youâre really too modest." Han Qianyi was envious. To have family assets but not inherit them, how blissful and fulfilling must everyday life be for you to form such rebellious thoughts?
But perhaps itâs about having her own dreams, just like how she dreams of becoming an Oscar-winning actress.
We should respect everyone who has a dream.
Han Qianyi asked again, "What do you want to do then?"
"Iâm currently interested in starting some technology product development projects."
"Technology product development? Doesnât that require a lot of money?"
The success rate of development is generally very low, and if it fails, it really burns through money!
Talking about Wan Chenâs startup ideas, Wan Chen instantly perked up, unintentionally saying a bit more: "Yes, but I know a team overseas, theyâre really capable, I could persuade them to come over, itâs just a pity..."
"Running out of money now?" Han Qianyi guessed that might be the only possibility.
Wan Chen nodded and sighed, looking drained and powerless.
Ah, the lack of money can indeed stymie the bravest men!
Han Qianyi patted his shoulder, offering comfort.
Suddenly, she felt a sense of shared suffering between them.
Because their career situations were somehow similar â no matter the reasons, both could not see a future as soon as they opened their eyes.
"In fact, youâre much better off than me," Han Qianyi soothed softly: "You could change your approach, first take over the family business, stabilize it, and then pursue your interests and dreams. That way, wouldnât your family be happy too?"
Unlike her, she really had no other choice.
Last night, she couldnât even sleep properly, worried that the show crew might come at any moment and ask her to pack up and leave.
Every minute was spent in fear.
Wan Chen sighed again, holding back further words.
The key issue was that if he went back, he would have to sell baby products, which was exactly what he did not want to sell and why he left.
"You donât understand," Wan Chen said.
"Alright," Han Qianyi nodded, then smiled slightly: "But I think nothing is perfect, for long-term development, enduring small grievances temporarily doesnât hurt, not letting minor things cost you major opportunities is the wisest approach."
Wan Chen looked slightly stunned, "I will consider it carefully."
Han Qianyi patted Wan Chenâs shoulder again, half-jokingly saying, "If you really do take over the family business in the future, donât forget about me!"
"Of course." Wan Chen laughed and blurted out those words, then suddenly paused, stunned.
Were he and Han Qianyi that close now?
[Feels like thereâs a spark between them? I think they might end up together!]
[Instant Noodles Brother and Sister, go for it!]
[Wan Chen actually has a family business to inherit! Canât help but feel a bit jealous!]
As soon as Wan Chen finished speaking, the showâs chief director suddenly ran over to pull Han Qianyi aside alone.
Han Qianyi suddenly had a bad feeling, her smile freezing on her face.
Wan Chen noticed her worried expression, suddenly grabbed Han Qianyiâs wrist, preventing her from getting up, and calmly asked the director, "Is there something you need her for? Sheâs now my romantic partner, didnât the crew say they wouldnât interfere with our free dating?"
The director smiled obsequiously: "Uh... thereâs a matter thatâs not very convenient, I need to speak with Han Qianyi privately."
After a moment of silence, Wan Chen, still holding Han Qianyi, stood up, "Iâll come with you."
Inside a temporarily constructed work tent, the chief director handed a contract to Han Qianyi, "Sign this termination contract. You can leave the show now."
