Chapter 1135: 1134 Meng Xiao’s Work
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Rou ran two laps. When she was running the last lap, she saw someone standing where she passed. She slowed down and took a closer look. It was Meng Xiao.
“Why are you here?” Tan Rou took a few slow steps before stopping to talk to Meng Xiao.
Meng Xiao handed the gift she had prepared to Tan Rou. “I wanted to come over to give you a New Years gift.”
Tan Rou felt that their relationship was not that good and that they would wish each other a happy new year. However, these few days were happy days, so she could not say no to them. “Thank you. I’ll accept the gift.”
Meng Xiao felt that Tan Rou was really cold. She only said a few words in one sentence. She was hoping to talk to Tan Rou more and stay in this beautiful manor for a while.
“Your manor is so beautiful!” Meng Xiao glanced around. “On the way here, I heard from your second brother that this manor belongs to you and you live there alone.”
“Yes, this is a gift from my grandparents when I came home that year,” Tan Rou said.
“Can I take a look around here?” Meng Xiao hesitated for a moment before asking.
Tan Rou thought for a moment and nodded. “Sure. Come with me.”
Meng Xiao really liked this manor. When she was in the Meng family, although she had her own manor, it was too small. Moreover, she did not live there alone. Her other sisters had to live with her. The manor was not big to begin with, and with so many people living there, it would be very crowded.
“I really envy you, living alone in such a big manor. Unlike me,” Meng Xiao said enviously. “The house I live in now is only one percent the size of this manor. Moreover, I have to be disturbed by the neighbor’s children every day. It’s making me nervous.”
“The company should have arranged accommodation for the artists, right?” asked Tan Rou.
Meng Xiao smiled and replied, “The houses arranged by the company are all apartments. They’re much smaller than the place I live in now. I’m used to living in a big house. If it’s changed to a small house, I’m not used to it.”
When she was down and out in the past few years, Meng Xiao’s house was very small. It took her a year to reluctantly accept a small house, but after she moved out, she could no longer live in a small house.
“Work hard and try to buy a manor as soon as possible.” Tan Rou encouraged.
“I can’t buy a manor just because I want to!” Meng Xiao sighed. Not only did she need money, but she also needed a place to build a manor. Land in the capital was so precious that she had no way of buying it.
“How’s work recently? Can you still adapt?” Tan Rou was like a parent who cared about her child. “Did the company arrange any resources for you?”
Meng Xiao nodded and said, “The company has arranged jobs for the new signed artists. Although the workload is not very big, it guarantees the opportunity to show their faces. Other than the role I played in Director Liang’s movie, they also arranged for me to audition for other roles. After the new year, I’ll be joining the crew for another filming.”
“Yes.” Tan Rou was very satisfied with Meng Xiao’s current attitude. If she could continue, they might become good friends.
“Uh, I have one more thing to say.” Meng Xiao said.
Tan Rou thought that she wanted to give her more resources. “Okay, go ahead.”
“When I came here today, I only brought two gifts,” Meng Xiao said with a conflicted expression. “One is for Old Master and Old Madam, and the other is for you.”
“Alright. Thank you for your gift.” Tan Rou nodded.
Meng Xiao didn’t mean that. She shook her head and said, “That’s not what I wanted to say. When I came here just now, it was President Tao who sent me. He knew that I’m here to give you a gift today. You’re not my immediate superior but he is. Instead of giving a gift to his superior, he gave a gift to his superior’s sister. I feel that this behavior is very strange.”
Meng Xiao was very tactful. She didn’t directly say that she was worried that Tao Zheng would fire her. Instead, she said that Tao Zheng already knew that she had given Tan Rou a gift. It all depended on what Tan Rou said.
Tan Rou smiled. “Are you worried that the Second Brother will make things difficult for you if you don’t give him a gift?”
Meng Xiao nodded vigorously. “Yes, he’s my boss now. He’s probably going to die of anger if I give you a gift instead of my boss. What if he fires me after this?”
