"There's no point in doing business... I feel like I'm already so rich that I don't need to work any more."
Meng Yao raised her head slightly, demonstrating "lack of ambition" with her strength.
Meng Yao still remembered the mate selection criteria of Rong Ying mentioned by Xia Yansen: a highly educated, independent woman.
Meng Yao added: "My husband is already so rich, I will only work hard when I am full and bored! I just like to rely on you like this and be a parasite by your side!"
Rong Yan's eyes moved slightly, and his heart was touched by her words.
Meng Yao not only likes him but also depends on him so much...
He lowered his eyes and collected his thoughts: "Do you want to do business? I am asking you whether you want to or not?"
Meng Yao felt that he was testing her, testing whether she was really hopeless.
"Of course I don't want to! Doing business is very risky. I'm already so rich, so there's no need to take risks. I'm fine the way I am. I eat and drink as I should, and live a carefree and comfortable life every day!"
Rong Yan thought for a moment and nodded: "In that case, just continue doing what you like."
If Meng Yao likes doing business, he will give her some contracts. No matter whether they succeed or not, as long as she has fun, he doesn't mind the little money anyway.
However, if Meng Yao doesn't like it, he will follow her ideas. She has been working in the entertainment industry and probably still likes being an actor.

"Joy Without Limits" is a popular variety entertainment program, which mainly consists of guest interviews and games. The program has gained a lot of popularity since its launch and its ratings have remained at the top.
"Joy Without Limits" focuses on traffic, and the guests invited in each episode are almost all recent hot figures.
There is even a saying in the circle that whether a person is popular or not depends on whether he or she has appeared on the variety show "Joy Without Limits".
Meng Yao only found out about this notice when she was having breakfast, and the recording time was at 7 o'clock in the evening.
Guan Liang knew that Meng Yao never paid much attention to announcements, so for any schedule that did not require special attention, he would tell Meng Yao on the same day. This had almost become a tradition between the two of them.
In the past few days since Meng Yao came back, she has mostly participated in meet-and-greets, commercial performances, and an endorsement, all of which she can accept.
However, because of the stereotype left by "Survival Challenge", Meng Yao can hardly accept variety shows anymore. She feels a little scared when she hears about them.
Meng Yao held her phone and used a roundabout tactic with Guan Liang: "I know this is a popular variety show, Brother Liang must have put a lot of thought into it for me."
Guan Liang couldn't figure out what she was thinking: "It didn't take much thought. The program team invited me."
"Oh..." Meng Yao didn't feel embarrassed at all, and slowly brought up her own topic: "Brother Liang, actually..."
When Guan Liang heard Meng Yao bring up another topic, he had a bad feeling.
really.
"I don't feel well. I have a terrible headache right now. I injured my foot a few days ago and it's still not healed. I think I should perform well on the show, but I'm not in good shape now so I'm not suitable to appear on the show. Ahem, in my opinion... Brother Liang, can you please turn down this variety show?"
"When did you hurt your foot?"
"Ah... It's that crappy survival variety show. It's been so long and nothing has gotten better!"
"…Your ability to tell lies has improved. But do you think I'm stupid? You were so happy to go out for hotpot a while ago, but how come you start to feel pain everywhere when it comes to doing business?"
Meng Yao rubbed her loose hair and said, "I accidentally bumped into the sofa today. My leg hurts because of my old injury."
Guan Liang sighed on the other end: "I have figured out your tricks now, stop doing those useless things, you must participate in this variety show. And do you think it's so easy to push the schedule, especially when it's already been scheduled."
Meng Yao's voice was weak, but Guan Liang wasn't going to fall for it.
"Pack up early."
Then there was a beep from the phone, indicating it was hung up.
Meng Yao cursed under her breath and angrily put the phone back into her pocket.
When the agreed time came, Meng Yao went out on time.
She looked at the time. It was two o'clock in the afternoon.
It wouldn't take that long to get there including the driving time and the styling time, but Guan Liang asked her to go there so early...
Meng Yao realized belatedly that she might have been fooled, but it was too late when she thought of this, because she saw Guan Liang waiting for her not far away.
Guan Liang waved at her, opened the car door for her, and said calmly, "You're one minute and three seconds late."
Meng Yao sat in, holding her bag in her hand: "Brother Liang, why did you come here in person?"
Guan Liang sat next to her and told her to drive before moving his gaze to her face.
Guan Liang had gotten used to Meng Yao's half-hearted dressing style... no, it should be said that she didn't dress up at all, and he was even too lazy to lecture her on this matter.
"You've been having so much fun lately, how can I feel at ease if I don't keep an eye on you in person?"
"By the way, isn't your foot hurting? I don't see anything wrong with you."
Meng Yao was stunned for a moment, then stuffed the mango candy into her mouth with a normal expression: "I was having trouble walking just now, didn't you notice? My left foot was stiff."
Her expression was so serious that Guan Liang really recalled the details of Meng Yao's walking.
Guan Liang frowned. At that time, most of his eyes were on Meng Yao's face, and he really didn't pay close attention to the condition of Meng Yao's feet.
Meng Yao successfully fooled the other party and turned the tables: "Brother Liang, you can tell from one glance that you have never cared about me. You didn't even notice that my left foot was slower than my right foot."
"I'm not always staring at your feet, how could I notice such details?"
"Of course you'll notice it if you look carefully. If you don't notice it, then you don't care about me."
Guan Liang sighed: "If it's true, I'll let you rest for a few days when you come back."
"How long is a few days?" Meng Yao asked impatiently.
Guan Liang looked at her: "Half a day."
"Half a day?" Meng Yao was so angry that she even spoke unclearly: "You, how many days do you call half a day? Half a day is not even a day!"
"Half a day is good. You are very popular now, so it is normal to have a lot of announcements. It is impossible for you to be as leisurely as before. I felt sorry for you because you suffered a lot in the rain forest the past two days, so I let you relax for a few days. That was a special situation, not your normal situation. You will only be busier in the future, and you will never relax."
The corners of Meng Yao's mouth dropped, and she was unwilling to say another word.
