Chapter 1109: Can’t Be Like This (1)
After Grandmother in law’s elder sister returned to her room, she went straight to sleep.
Xu Cheng also returned to her room, her heart somewhat nervous. They had offended the Ruan Family today. Although Madame Ruan was mediating things, and Ling Tianya did not show that she was unhappy, Xu Cheng could tell what kind of atmosphere there now was. Ling Tianya was only polite to them on the surface. Who knew what she really thought of them?
Xu Cheng’s heart was unsettled. In the past, she wouldn’t have cared and Ling Tianya wouldn’t mean anything to her. However, she couldn’t help but care about her now.
Their family had made a point of saying that they were here to visit Grandmother in law’s younger sister. In reality, they were already spending someone else’s money without generating any and were almost unable to continue living. They needed to rely on Grandmother in law’s younger sister. However, they all cared about their honor and not only did they not tell them the truth, but they were also worried that the Ruan Family would look down on them and would act in a superior manner.
However, they could not rely on the Ruan Family for food and clothing forever. They would have to spend money in the future. They couldn’t stay at the Ruan residence all day. If they had to ask the Ruan family for money, wouldn’t that be the same as slapping themselves across their face?
Therefore, Xu Cheng wanted to go and find a job. Originally, her ambitions were big, and she thought that because she had a master’s and that even the heavens were proud of her, if she entered the Yuan Teng Corporation, then they would let her become the Vice President, or, at the very least, the Director.
However, she was still thinking too simply. Ruan Zeyan looked down on her and even an administrative a.s.sistant manager position had to be brought up by Ling Tianya before Ruan Zeyan had reluctantly said that he could give it to her.
However, she wasn’t satisfied with being an administrative a.s.sistant manager. If she had wanted a small position like that, then she would have gone and done it a long time ago. Why wait until she went to the Ruan residence?
Since she couldn’t go to the Yuan Teng Corporation, Ling Tianya suggested she could become a screenwriter. She was very willing. After all, this was a job that she could brag about. If she did it well, then she could become famous and earn a lot of money, just like Ling Tianya.
Ever since she found out that Ling Tianya was a famous screenwriter, Xu Cheng had secretly researched Ling Tianya online. She realized that Ling Tinaya was really amazing and earned a lot of money!
There was a chart that ranked authors globally, and Ling Tianya was one of the top ten. To Xu Cheng, this was a big shock but at the same time, it was a type of motivation.
She thought that if someone like Ling Tianya was able to reach the top ten, then, as long as she wrote something properly, then she could also reach that level. She might even be better than Ling Tianya!
Because of this, Xu Cheng was looking forward to going to work at Zhi Ya Entertainment next week. However, now that something like this had happened today, she was a little anxious. She even regretted using that kind of tone to speak to Ling Tianya before. What if Ling Tianya changed her mind? Even if she didn’t change her mind, what if she made things difficult for her in the company and did not acknowledge her work? They all said that the water in the entertainment circle was very deep and that the waters at an entertainment company were even deeper.
Feeling like this, Xu Cheng stayed in her room and anxiously waited for the rain outside to stop.
In comparison to Xu Cheng’s anxiousness, Huang Ying was even more impatient. She lay on the bed, tossing and turning, her head filled with thoughts of Ruan Qishan.
Huang Ying suddenly sat up. “No, it can’t be like this!”
