After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 905 - 484: Besties
Chen Feng didn't know that Zhang Siying had already seen through his relationship with Sun Xiaorui.
However, even if he did know, it wouldn't bother him mentally. After all, his relationship with Sun Xiaorui was consensual, neither illegal nor immoral.
After all, both of them are unmarried, and the love between a man and a woman is the most normal thing, others can't criticize them for anything.
The women at home were having a great time in the pool, later engaging in a water fight, the screams and laughter resonating in the air, making Chen Feng feel joy while watching from the terrace.
Only after more than two hours, when the four women were tired from playing, did they return indoors to change clothes. Then, they lounged in the living room, watching TV, snacking, and chatting during which Lu Sijia, feeling sleepy and uninhibited, simply lay down on the sofa, covered herself with the air-conditioned blanket, and fell asleep.
Afterwards, not long later, the three other women also went upstairs to their rooms to rest, Wu Mengting and Lin Wan together returned to the former's room.
"Little Sweet, your quality of life now is beyond words. You're already a winner in life."
After closing the door, Lin Wan complimented with envy on her face.
Seeing Lin Wan now trying so hard to curry favor, Wu Mengting felt somewhat gratified, but more so, she pondered.
Now, after work and societal experiences, she has gained more realistic and direct understanding of human nature and the human heart.
Just speaking of Fengmang Film and Television Company, even though there are only a few dozen people, the pursuit for fame and profit and the scheming happens daily.
And this is the true reality of the real world. Only because she is practically the second-in-command of the company can she look down at the people beneath, fighting openly and secretly for fame and interests. She maintains an observer's detachment but precisely because of that detachment, she sees more clearly the real dynamics of the world and workplace.
Thus, although not completely despairing in humanity, she is very disappointed. No longer as pure as she once was.
This has both positive and negative effects on her personally.
The positive is that it makes her less susceptible to deception, exploitation, and manipulation.
The negative is, due to her disappointment in human nature, she might find it very difficult to make genuine friends and to be completely open with others in the future. She might also lose the happiness she once had.
Many people lose the joy in life because they see too clearly, think too clearly.
Human nature and societal realities dictate that the vast majority of people are inadvertently in competition with peers from birth, and upon entering adulthood and the workforce, this competition among peers becomes more direct.
Opportunism, bootlicking, betrayal of morals for gain are prevalent everywhere.
Could you say these people are wrong? Not really, because this is human nature; everyone acts for their own interests, aiming to win in peer competitions.
In any case, these past few months, Wu Mengting has transformed from a somewhat naive girl to a woman with strategic mind and calmness.
At least mentally, she feels she is now a fully mature woman, even beginning to become worldly.
If a person becomes worldly, it usually indicates maturity.
She doesn't particularly like her current self, but this is the price of growing up and maturing.
Facing Lin Wan's compliments and envy, Wu Mengting responded calmly: "Not quite a winner in life. Just that my quality of life has improved compared to before."
Lin Wan joked: "Does that mean you have to wait until you marry Chen Feng and have children to truly become a winner in life?"
In the past, Wu Mengting might have blushed or felt shy at such a remark, but now she merely smiled and said: "Maybe. But not necessarily. At different life stages, demands for life might change."
Lin Wan felt a sense of admiration as she said: "I'm gradually realizing you're different from before, becoming more excellent and rational."
Wu Mengting asked: "Do you prefer the old me or the current me?"
Lin Wan's gaze was a bit complex: "From a personal standpoint, I of course prefer the old you. You took care of me unreservedly and treated me well back then. You listened to everything I said. But now, you're rational, turning into a female elite, a strong woman."
Wu Mengting didn't respond directly, merely said calmly: "People must learn to grow up."
Lin Wan sighed: "You've grown so quickly, it's like you're a completely different person to me."
"Don't go on about it," Wu Mengting chuckled, stepping forward to hug her shoulder, saying, "I'm still me, just perhaps with less childishness and naivety than before. There's no chance I'll play the fool and be your free nanny like before."
Lin Wan also put her hand on her shoulder, awkwardly explaining for herself: "I was just lazy before, never intended for you to be a free nanny. Besides, when we lived together, seeing you do housework happily, I even thought you enjoyed it."
"Let's not talk about the past. How are things going for you now? Is your livestreaming job smooth? When I asked on WeChat, you said it was fine. Are you only reporting the good news and not the bad?"
Wu Mengting embraced her warmly as she had in the past, sitting by the bedside, inquiring about her recent situation with care. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Lin Wan heard her and sighed: "The livestreaming industry is tough now. Although I have over fifty thousand fans, most are zombie fans and freeloaders. Also, you know I refuse to meet those who give gifts offline, nor do I flirt, which results in fewer gifts.
Also, I refused to join clubs some time ago and encountered malicious reports. Later, I inexplicably got banned for a week, losing many fans. During that time, I started making short videos. Up till now, I have over twenty thousand followers but haven't earned much."
Wu Mengting thought for a moment and asked: "If I were to sign you as an actor on behalf of our company now, would you be willing?"
Lin Wan was first stunned, then visibly conflicted, after which she slowly shook her head in refusal: "I can't do it. Although I'm a female streamer and not camera-shy, I've never performed, nor have I systematically learned acting. If I had just graduated from college, I might want to try, to start everything from scratch. But now I'm older, and switching careers is costly."
Wu Mengting persuaded: "You're not that old now. Even though you haven't systematically learned acting, having been a streamer for so long, you shouldn't be camera-shy, and psychologically, you're probably qualified to be an actor. Plus, your external conditions, appearance, and temperament are decent. If you truly want to transition to acting, just undergo several months of intensive training, learn acting, practice dialogue and body expression, you should be able to go on camera. I think you should give it a try."
