CHAPTER 609: CHAPTER 609: IS THIS HOW YOU REPAY YOUR SAVIOR?

Hengdian.

As evening fell, a light rain began to drizzle. After the crew of "Conquest of the World" wrapped up, Luo Yuwei asked Xiao Nan to pack up the luggage and they got into the nanny car.

"Sister Yuwei, why are we returning to the hotel so early today?"

"I asked the director for a day off, to go home."

"Oh!"

Xiao Nan set the GPS for the Capital Suburb. Arriving in front of a high-end residential area, Xiao Nan got out with an umbrella, "Sister Yuwei, it’s raining quite heavily. Do you live in this community? Let me walk you back."

"No need."

Luo Yuwei took the umbrella, smiling as she declined, "It’s getting late. You should head back; I’ll just go inside."

"Alright, then take care."

As the nanny car slowly drove away, the smile on Luo Yuwei’s face also faded, and she turned to walk down a narrow path.

At the end of the path, the door to ’Nanny Pastry Shop’ was pushed open, and Luo Yuwei folded the umbrella.

In the store, an elderly woman kneading pastries and a twenty-something young man playing a game, who bore a slight resemblance to Luo Yuwei, saw her and immediately smiled broadly.

"Yuwei’s back? Is it raining heavily outside, did you get wet? Come over here and dry yourself off."

"Sister! Weren’t you filming? You said you were coming back and here you are. How about it, you mentioned on the phone a few days ago that you had taken an advertisement job for three million, is that true? Did you get the money?"

Luo Yuxin dropped his phone and ran over to her.

Luo Yuwei ignored him, putting away the umbrella and going to the kitchen to wash her hands, "Grandma is making pastries all by herself; it’s so hard, and you don’t even help, just playing games on the side?"

"I was so excited to hear you were coming back that I couldn’t concentrate on anything else. I’ll help now!"

Luo Yuxin also diligently washed his hands.

The family of three sat around making pastries.

Luo Yuwei: "It’s not that much, after taxes and the company’s cut, only a little over seven hundred thousand is left."

"Star Entertainment takes so much? And you even saved their chairman once; is this how they repay their lifesaver?"

Luo Yuxin was clearly dissatisfied.

Luo Yuwei glared at him, and he fell silent.

"This is the standard contract that the company signs with the artists, and they’ve already given me a preferential treatment in the additional terms, others have it even stricter."

"It’s already quite good."

Grandma smiled contentedly, "I’ve never earned so much money in my life, and Yuwei earns it just by working, really amazing!"

Luo Yuxin: "Grandma, my sister is now a big star; what’s this amount of money to her? It’ll only be more in the future! By the way, sister, I saw online that ’Conquest of the World’ is a huge hit lately! You should have agreed to take remuneration; it would have been so much better. Instead, you refused for the sake of gratitude. Bo Family gave you this resource to thank you for saving a life. Why be so polite with them? A few million of remuneration is nothing for a top-tier family, but it would have made us rich!"

"You and your talk about money!"

Grandma tapped Luo Yuxin’s head with a rolling pin, "All you think about is money."

Luo Yuwei’s hands paused while molding the pastries, "Because being human isn’t about just looking at immediate benefits."

"That’s true too! You can already land a three-million advertisement fee now; in the future, you will definitely earn even more! Grandma and I are relying on you to provide for us!"

"Sister, what’s wrong? You don’t seem very happy."

Luo Yuwei set down the pastry in her hand, "Perhaps it’s because this small endorsement just can’t compare with what others get."

"Three million is still a ’small endorsement’?"
