Chapter 2332: Chapter 2332

Jiaojiao touched the envelope, it felt quite thick. When she opened it and counted, she was astonished to find ten hundred-yuan bills.

The average salary these days is five to six hundred, and just for a cameo role for an hour, she got paid a thousand?

Though swinging around in mid-air for an hour was indeed quite tiring, Jiaojiao knew it wasn’t worth that price.

She remembered Ruan Lei’s pay for a TV episode was also about a thousand. Even though an episode is only about thirty or forty minutes long, she knew that shooting it takes at least a week or so. So Ruan Lei earns roughly a thousand a week, yet she got a thousand for an hour?

Jiaojiao held the money feeling a bit uneasy, "Brother Lei, did the director give me the wrong amount?"

"It’s what you deserve." Ruan Lei ruffled her little head.

Jiaojiao nodded, only then did she put the money away, feeling delighted inside, thinking she did quite well!

She got out of the car and pulled Duan Xi along, saying, "Let’s go say goodbye to the director before we leave."

Seeing Jiaojiao return, the old man, who was discussing the scene with the assistant director, looked over in surprise.

Jiaojiao beamed, "Thank you, Grandpa, for the big red envelope."

The old man snorted, still acting a bit proud, "It’s what you deserve, no need to thank me. If you really want to express gratitude..." His gaze wandered to Duan Xi next to her, his little eyes sparkling, "Young man, are you interested in joining this field..."

"No shortage of money." Before he finished, Duan Xi interrupted.

The old man fell silent; of course, he knew there was no lack of money. Just the car he drove was worth over two hundred thousand, certainly not lacking money.

But he was really reluctant to give up on such a promising talent.

But Duan Xi didn’t give him a chance to continue speaking. As soon as Jiaojiao said her goodbyes, she pulled him into the car and left.

In the car, Jiaojiao remembered Yang Tao and Yang Hong, "Brother Xi, wait a minute, I promised to have dinner at their place with Xiaotiao!"

Duan Xi hadn’t started the car yet. Remembering Yang Hong’s wide eyes when he saw Jiaojiao in her period costume, he pressed the accelerator without a word, driving off amidst Jiaojiao’s startled cries.

Yang Tao, seeing this, was unsurprised and shrugged, "Looks like no dinner for us."

In the car, Jiaojiao protested, "Brother Xi! Stop the car, Xiaotiao and the others aren’t in yet, I made a promise! I’ll be mad if you don’t!"

Duan Xi frowned, and the car came to a stop again.

In no time, three people settled in the back seat, Ruan Lei having finished his scenes, cheekily joined in for dinner with Yang Tao.

After they drove away, there was a slightly ambiguous atmosphere between the two after the little pursuit. Seeing this, Jiaojiao naturally wanted to play matchmaker, so once Duan Xi turned the car around, she enthusiastically invited Ruan Lei to join as well.

The old man was in a good mood today and, since it was indeed getting late, he simply called it a wrap and gave the crew the rest of the day off.

Jiaojiao sat in the front passenger seat, counting the big envelope back and forth as if she hadn’t seen money before, still pondering how to spend this sum.

Treat everyone to a meal?

Feels wasteful after it’s gone.

Buy a gift?

With a thousand yuan, I can’t buy something really nice, and more importantly, once I start, where does it end? As for the promise to buy a gift for Duan Xi, that one she’d just tossed out of her mind.
