I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

【？？？？？？？】

[So the actor hasn't arrived yet? I was wondering why this guy's acting was so good.]

I'm already exhausted from laughing. Where does this show even get so many programs every day?!

[This is outrageous! I'm talking about the blood pressure of the three people in Group A!]

[It seems like this place, Mihai, has a knack for clashing with Teacher Yan and Shen Han; it's been unlucky to the point of being a little eerie.]

Yan Lei, Shen Han, and Xia Ziyi each paid five yuan in compensation to the production team, which made their already impoverished family even worse off.

"Actually, if we look at it on the bright side, although we each contributed 15 yuan, we at least helped two groups of people, didn't we?"

Seeing the unpleasant expressions on Yan Lei and Xia Ziyi's faces, Shen Han, thinking himself quite gracious, offered some words of comfort.

Yan Lei glanced at him sideways, saying nothing, but it seemed like he had said everything.

Xia Ziyi put on a sly face, looking quite unhappy.

Although Shen Han's words made some sense, and she really didn't need those five yuan... it was hard not to be affected by this bizarre incident.

[Hanhan is so gentle, yet that fatso and drama queen dare to give him attitude!]

[You're gentle with thieves? Your Hanhan is very magnanimous.]

Shen Han's behavior tells us that you'd better not find a "warm guy" as a boyfriend, unless he's only warm to you. Otherwise, if you argue with someone else, he'll just stand by and say, "Even birds have it tough."

Thank you for your guidance, Master. Just imagining that scene is enough to make my blood pressure rise.

"Uh, um... do you still sell figs?" the behind-the-scenes staff member who was acting as a shill asked timidly from the side.

Wang Zheng left after collecting the compensation, but he, as the shill, still had to stay behind to buy figs!

"Look, look! Fresh figs! If you don't like them, you don't have to pay!"

The loudspeaker next to them was still playing tirelessly.

Xia Ziyi grabbed the speaker and angrily turned it off.

Yan Lei glared at the staff member through gritted teeth.

"Selling, of course we sell, but you probably don't need to taste it, right?"

"No, no need, just give me a pound!" The staff member behind the scenes shook his head repeatedly.

Looking at Yan Lei and Xia Ziyi's expressions... he felt immense pressure from his family.

I should have chosen to be a substitute in Group B.

……

……

As noon approached, the sun loomed larger overhead, casting a thick, heavy light.

However, the sunshade set up by the production team was of exceptionally high quality. While it wasn't exactly cool, it was certainly comfortable to stay in the shade of the sunshade.

"Should we prepare lunch?" Tian Xiwei suggested.

Besides the show's hired actors, Group B sold another four kilograms of figs, bringing their current turnover to seventy yuan.

The production team's idea is that selling goods is entirely voluntary, and today's bonus will be each group's final sales revenue.

If you feel tired and don't really care about the extra prize money, you can just stop now.

That being said, sitting under the sunshade wasn't too unbearable, so they had no plans to close up shop at the moment.

If we don't close up shop, and it's lunchtime again, shouldn't we have lunch?

"I have no objection," Cheng Che said indifferently.

"I think that's fine too," Xu Anan nodded.

"Should we order takeout, or pack up and find somewhere to eat nearby?" Tian Xiwei asked again.

Xu Anan, who had been speaking softly, spoke up first: "Let's find a place to eat nearby."

Being in a market, there are plenty of places to eat nearby, with a wide variety of options, so there's absolutely no need to order takeout.

Moreover, she had a great idea...

"I don't think we need to pack up," she continued. "How about this, you two go eat first, and I'll stay here and watch the stall."

"When you're done eating, just bring me a meal when you come back." Her voice was gentle, and her words were considerate, leaving no room for criticism.

After all, what bad intentions could a pure and unattainable love like her possibly have?

It's simply a matter of wanting Cheng Che and Tian Xiwei to have more time alone together.

"This isn't really a good idea..." Tian Xiwei hesitated.

She went out to eat and drink well with Cheng Che, leaving Xu Anan all alone here selling figs?

This is too much...

"It's alright, it's alright," Xu Anan said repeatedly. "When you guys come back, it'll be my turn to rest, won't it?"

"Besides, the sun is so strong outside, at least there's a sunshade here to block out the sun." She gave a variety of reasons.

"Alright then." Tian Xiwei was convinced by Xu Anan. "Anan, is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"Anything is fine," Xu Anan said, then paused, "but if you have a choice, please bring me something low in calories."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Che subconsciously glanced at Tian Xiwei.

His eyes seemed to say: Look at their professional ethics, and look at some other people.

Tian Xiwei glared at him back, probably saying: Mind your own business and shut up!

Seeing the two of them glaring at each other, Xu Anan smiled with satisfaction.

It's just a matter of watching the stall by myself, it's worth it!

……

……

There's a food street near the market; it's less than a five-minute walk from the market.

As soon as Tian Xiwei stepped into the snack street, she became visibly excited, her eyes sparkling as she looked around, just like a little hamster that had been put into a granary.

"Wow, there's grilled squid over there, and teppanyaki tofu! Is that where they sell takoyaki?" she exclaimed as she walked, her footsteps and mouth never stopping.

Cheng Che followed leisurely beside him, his attitude quite Zen.

He wasn't actually that hungry yet; his craving for food wasn't very strong at the moment.

Tian Xiwei looked left and right, and first went to a stall selling takoyaki (octopus balls) and bought a serving.

The box was packed full of eight small takoyaki, sprinkled with bonito flakes and a special sauce, making it look incredibly appetizing.

Tian Xiwei pulled out a bamboo skewer, tied up a small meatball, blew on it slightly, and then couldn't wait to put it in her mouth.

The umami, saltiness, a hint of sweetness, and the satisfaction of successfully consuming carbohydrates after a day's work exploded in her mouth, and her eyes immediately curved into crescents.

"Wow, this is so delicious!" she mumbled in praise.

Cheng Che quietly reminded him from the side, "Take it easy, after all, it's really high in calories. Be careful, your manager might fight you tonight."

Upon hearing this, Tian Xiwei paused, glanced at him, and clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.

She felt that Cheng Che was probably a straight man like Chu Zihang.

She rarely comes to the food street to eat some "junk food," and all she does is say such unpleasant things.

This person is probably beyond saving!

Seeing that Cheng Che seemed inclined to speak again, she took out a new bamboo skewer and tied it into a small dumpling.

"Okay, okay." She said, and with lightning speed, stuffed the little dumpling directly into Cheng Che's mouth, shoving it shut in his mouth.

"I ate too much, so the treadmill will punish me later. Master, please stop nagging me~~~"

"..."

Cheng Che stood there stunned for a while, a takoyaki in his mouth.

Then he turned his head away, stopped speaking, and silently began to chew.

Okay, it does taste pretty good.

These meatballs feel a bit hot, I don't know if it's because of the weather...
