Rebirth in Showbiz: How to Win the Showbiz Emperor's Heart?

She let out a cold laugh, ”For the past half year, you haven’t had to do anything, yet you’re living in a big villa. This is the happy life you’ve stolen, you should be chuckling to yourselves. What else are you not satisfied with?”

That’s how country people are—selfish and greedy by nature, but just right for her to use.

”As long as you help me do one more thing, you can receive a large sum of money,” she said enticingly.

”How large a sum?” Old Mrs. Su asked.

”Enough to ensure you won’t have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your lives.”

That was indeed a considerable amount of money.

Greed flashed in Old Mrs. Su’s eyes. With that money, they could really enjoy life.

”What do you want us to do?”

The woman looked at them with disdain in her eyes, ”Just for you to...”

She meticulously laid out her plan, word by word.

When Old Mrs. Su and Old Su returned home and had just sat down, planning to discuss what to do next—their seats not even warm yet—a stranger entered through the door. They had never seen him before.

Old Mrs. Su stood up nervously, ”Who are you? What are you here for?”

The stranger was Gu Feng, Tong Yan’s manager. He walked in, smiling, ”I was sent by Miss Tong Yan. She feels guilty towards you, so she specifically sent me to compensate you.”

As he spoke, he took out a thick wad of money from his pocket and handed it to them.

Because they were in the countryside, the doors were all open, and given that there were just a few people in the village, whenever someone new came, everyone would be curious about who they were visiting and what they were there for.

So, at this point, many people had gathered around.

As Gu Feng spoke, everyone could hear him. They stared greedily at the thick wad of money in Gu Feng’s hand—how much money could that be? Definitely a lot! They couldn’t earn that much in a year.

Consequently, many began to gossip, ”Old Su, you’re really lucky to have such a good granddaughter. We wish we had one too.”

”Yeah, didn’t they often send money before too? It really depends on one’s fortune.”

”Your granddaughter is quite generous, always bringing such large sums. Really makes people envious. From now on, you really only need to enjoy life.”

...

Hearing them talk like this, Old Mrs. Su felt a surge of pride, proud of her capability to have given birth to a good son, hence a good granddaughter. ”If you can, have your own,” she thought.

Yet amidst the pride, she also felt a bit suspicious. Why send money for no reason? Was it really compensation?

Yes, that smooth talker had been so cruel to them. As a granddaughter, she should indeed compensate, or else they’d sue her!

With this thought, Old Mrs. Su accepted the money with satisfaction, her smile as bright as a chrysanthemum, ”Tell Yanyan to visit next time.”

Gu Feng nodded, ”Old lady, I’ll take my leave now, many things to attend to.”

And so, Gu Feng left under the envious gazes of everyone.

The crowd at the door slowly dispersed. Old Mrs. Su shut the door, still a bit shaken, ”Why do you think Yanyan wants to send us money?”

Old Su didn’t care, ”As long as they’re giving us money, let’s take it. It can’t do any harm.”

”Now we have money. Do we still need to do what that person asked?”

”You think we have too much money? Wife, that’s a huge sum. Yes, we must do it. Let’s properly plan what to do next.”

Before they could think of what to do next, Gu Feng came again.
