“You know very well.” As Shi Xi spoke, she saw Hua Wenyin walking over from the corner of her eye and lowered her voice.
“You!” Hua Ruoling glared fiercely at Shi Xi, and in the blink of an eye, she pretended to be gentle and magnanimous. “This is your first time coming to the gla.s.s greenhouse, right? The flowers and plants here are very precious. I’ll show you.”
“I’m not interested in flowers,” Shi Xi rejected her flatly.
Hua Ruoling was not convinced.
How could Shi Xi, who was so materialistic and only loved money, be worthy of the ident.i.ty of the Hua family’s daughter?
“Why are you guys here?” Hua Wenyin was both confused and happy when she saw the two of them.
“I’ll be leaving in a while. Before I leave, I’ll greet you. The flowers here are very beautiful,” Shi Xi praised.
“Didn’t you say earlier that you’re not interested in flowers?”
“Just because I’m not interested doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate it.” Shi Xi could understand Hua Ruoling’s malice toward her and said, “I’ve already met you. I’ll leave first.”
“Wait, I have something to give you.””
Shi Xi: ?
Hua Wenyin took out a box of succulents the size of a palm and said, “This is for you.”
Seeing that the succulent plant was pink and tender and very cute, Shi Xi took it. “Thank you.”
“Mom, Xi Xi doesn’t like flowers and plants. Even if you give her this, she won’t raise it.” Hua Ruoling was eating at the side.
“This is an improved version of the Otome Heart. It’s very easy to raise.” Hua Wenyin smiled gently. “You won’t die even if you don’t water it for a month.”
“That’s great. I’m really afraid that 1’11 raise this to death.” Shi Xi held the green plant. “Goodbye.”
Hua Wenyin walked her to the gla.s.s greenhouse and couldn’t help but ask, “Come back and spend more time with your grandfather when you have time, okay?”
After all, Grandpa Hua was the head of the Hua family.
There was no harm in trying to please him.
Shi Xi nodded. “I know.”
Hua Wenyin felt helpless.
She didn’t want fame and fortune, but as a mother, she was strong. Who wouldn’t want to give their child something more?
The Hua family was big, and everyone wanted a piece of the pie.
However, Shi Xi did not even return home.
Coming out of the gla.s.s greenhouse, Shi Xi finally managed to get on the car for the return trip.
The banquet that night was too tiring.
Shi Xi leaned against the seat and closed her eyes to rest. “How many scenes are there tomorrow? Can we not go?”
“Definitely not! You don’t have many scenes to begin with. What if the director is unhappy and cuts your scenes? 1 shouldn’t have taken on this drama in the first place!” Zhu Lin said reluctantly.
“It’s too late to say this now,” Shi Xi said.
“Although there aren’t many scenes in the drama, [Delicacies in the Freezer] has become popular. The pay for one episode of [Delicacies in the Freezer] is more than what you get for one drama!” Zhu Lin comforted her.
At the mention of this, Shi Xi felt a little heartbroken.
One variety show only needed half a day to shoot, or even two in half a day.
However, the pay for variety shows could reach seven figures.
As for her salary for filming…
“Has the payment for [Nine Lives of Peace] been settled?” Shi Xi asked.
“Settled according to the contract.” Zhu Lin’s face twisted when she heard the name. It was obvious that she did not want to hear the name of this drama again.
From the filming to the post-production, this drama had made them feel too uncomfortable.
“It’s not even as much as a variety show.” Shi Xi sighed. “No wonder everyone likes variety shows.”
“The advertising fees for variety shows are high! But we still need to have a work as a foundation,” Zhu Lin added.
Without popularity and strength, who would watch your variety show?
If Shi Xi had gone to a variety show right after her debut, she would definitely not have the popularity she had now..
