Meng Yao covered her chest and pretended to be heartbroken: "I didn't expect that you would look at me like this..."
Guan Liang was calm in the face of Meng Yao's pretending to be weak: "So what kind of story does Mirror Mirror tell?"
"Of course I know. Mirror Image... isn't it just a love story?"
"Love? The connotation of "Mirror" is far more than that. Is love the only thing you see? There is nothing else?" Guan Liang was still guiding step by step.
Meng Yao remained calm: "I am just a love-minded person. I don't have any lofty ambitions or sharp eyes. I can only see love."
"Pfft." Guan Liang couldn't help laughing.
"The scope of love you mentioned is too broad. Let's talk about other things."
"Hmm... It's quite touching. I was deeply moved after reading it. Even someone like me who doesn't like to read scripts was hooked. I quite like the heroine's personality. If we meet in real life, I think we might be able to become friends."
She did it in one go, with almost no pauses.
It sounds like there's a lot of emotion, but if you listen carefully it's all just general nonsense, and not a single word contains any specific information.
Guan Liang nodded with satisfaction. He pretended to be casual and asked, "I didn't expect you to like the role of 'Qiong Ji' so much."
Meng Yao noticed the faint light in Guan Liang's eyes: "The heroine's name shouldn't be this."
"Really? Then what do you think the heroine's name is?" Guan Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, looking like an old fox.
"I have a bad memory. I can only roughly remember the plot when I watch something. I really can't remember the character names..."
Xiao Song stood in the back with his mouth slightly open, unable to believe that Meng Yao and Guan Liang had come up with new ideas in their argument, as if he had been transported back to the "scene of a large-scale palace fight" in a second.
Meng Yao has long been accustomed to the current pattern.
Guan Liang’s daily doubts and his daily excuses.
"I'll review it again when I get back and tell you about it in a couple of days."
Meng Yao really had never read that crappy script, but fortunately she had a good memory, so it should be no problem for her to go back and read it and remember most of it.
That's why Meng Yao's words were so confident.
After Meng Yao said this, Guan Liang began to doubt himself a little.
“…Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

Meng Yao signed a cooperation contract in the company today. Guan Liang said he would treat her to lunch at noon, so Meng Yao did not leave.
"Sister Meng, these are gifts from fans. There are quite a few of them. I've put them all here for you."
Xiao Song walked in holding dozens of gift boxes, his body staggering.
Meng Yao suddenly sat up from the sofa.
Ever since she opened many small cakes and cookies, Meng Yao could no longer remain calm when faced with gifts sent by fans.
Meng Yao reached out and picked out a few exquisite gift boxes that looked like they contained snacks.
"Why are there so many people sending me food lately?"
"Of course it's because you're popular, Sister Meng, and your fans like you so they'll give you gifts."
"Really?" Meng Yao said indifferently.
"Of course! Our sister Meng is a shining new star who will shine on the international stage one day."
International - a battlefield that many stars have targeted.
But after a while Meng Yao thought of another thing.
Even though she is not popular, she can still have so many delicious foods. A popular person like Meng Qingqing must have so many cakes every day.
Just thinking about this, Meng Yao felt a little envious.
Although I have enough snacks, who doesn’t want more snacks? The more the better!
Meng Yao opened several gift boxes and put the small accessories aside. Next to her were various cakes that had already been opened and cookies baked by fans.
The yellow box had a cute pattern on it. After opening it, there was also a greeting card. Meng Yao glanced at it casually and chuckled, "Nice writing."
Then she opened the small box inside the big box. It contained handmade chocolates, each piece of chocolate wrapped in a light and compact package.
Meng Yao tore open the package and stuffed a piece into her mouth. She quickly frowned and said, "It's too bitter. I don't like it."
Meng Yao handed the box to Xiao Song: "Keep this for yourself!"
"Sister Meng, isn't chocolate bitter? It tastes better when it's a little bitter."
"I do not like."
Meng Yao took the water on the table and took a sip, but still felt the bitterness in her mouth.
Xiao Song also tore open the package, stuffed a piece of chocolate into his mouth, and slurred it happily: "Sister Meng, you are so nice to me."
Meng Yao took another pink box and continued to open it. There was a big heart painted on the box, and the box was covered with cute stickers, making it look very girly.
Meng Yao just weighed it and it was quite heavy.
She untied the wrapped ribbons layer by layer and opened the box.
“Ahhhh!!”
At the same time, Xiao Song's scream rang out.
The chocolate in his hand fell to the ground, and Xiao Song pointed at the box and shouted: "What is this?! What are these disgusting things?!"
Meng Yao's gaze stopped on the box.
There were two silk handkerchiefs, one seemed to be stained with blood, and the other was a white silk handkerchief, but it was also stained with red dots. There were also a few scary props, like eyeballs. Who would have thought that the box full of girlishness would contain these...
Meng Yao said with disdain: "I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be a trick played by elementary school students!"
Xiao Song was already shaking: "This this this..."
Meng Yao smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? It's painted with red medicine. The props on the set are much more realistic than this."
“Well, well, well… that…” He couldn’t utter those words at all.
Meng Yao put the lid back on, slowly took out a silk scarf and gently wiped her fingers that were stained with a few drops of red medicine.
"It's made of silicone. It's a scary thing."
With a "clang" sound, Meng Yao threw the big box into the trash can.
"Don't be so scared, they are just little things."
Xiao Song was very close to the trash can. He moved towards Meng Yao and said, "But, but it looks really scary!" He said angrily, "Who on earth could have come up with such a sinister trick? How could there be such a person in the world? This is too vicious!!"
Xiao Song just glanced at a piece of white paper with red words written on it. It seemed to have words like "die" or "failure". He knew without guessing that they were some very ugly words.
"There are so many people in the world..."
Meng Yao turned her head and teased Xiao Song, "One after another... I'm being targeted. It seems I have to keep my tail between my legs from now on."
After she finished speaking, another laugh escaped from the corner of her mouth.
"Sister Meng, are you serious?"
"Fake."
"and you… "
"If he dares to stand in front of me, I can't kill him..."
She said this slowly, but a ruthless light flashed in her eyes.
