First job

  Mei Yu was overjoyed, she knew why Ning Jie's gaze had paused earlier. Ning Jie must have noticed that the simple yet elegant dress she was wearing was a new product from Calvin Klein, and someone who could afford to buy a $500 outfit couldn't even pay $500 in rent for a month, it was only natural to be suspicious.

  Ning Jie pulled the contract over, and Mei Yu noticed that Ning Jie's beautiful fingertips were painted with a light purple nail polish, and on top of it was drawn a circle of green vines, which had an extraordinary charm.

  Ning Jie scribbled two strokes, changing the rental period, and Mei Yu signed her name with relish.

  Ning Jie handed the contract to Mei Yu with a flourish, and then walked to the window, pulled open a corner of the yellow curtain, pointed to the west corner of the courtyard, and smiled: "You'll be living in that house, there are two other girls inside, so you'd better get along well."

  Plum rain picked up the bag, grasped the contract with one hand, stood up and smiled: "Don't worry, I understand the rules. By the way, do you have a suitable role here? You know, I'm in short supply..."

  Plum rain swallowed the word "money" unclearly, tucked the contract under her armpit, and rubbed her thumb and index finger together, making a NEY gesture.

  Ning's sister suddenly lost her smile, returned to the sofa chair, bent down halfway, and with one-third of the cigarette still in her hand, she lightly pressed it into the crystal ashtray. She said casually: "I actually have a role, just a minor one, I don't know if you're interested."

  Mei Yu opened her eyes wide and nodded happily, saying frankly: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can act, any role is fine."

  Ning Jie straightened up, her hands crossed, embracing her bare shoulders, tilting her head, with a sly smile: "Any role is okay? Including kissing scenes, ***, nude scenes?"

  Even if Meiyu Ersheng was a person, he was also old in the ways of the world, and was shut up by Ning Jie's counter-question, unable to speak. He smiled wryly twice, without responding, sometimes silence is better than direct refusal, it can leave room for maneuver.

  Ning Jie couldn't help but laugh at Mei Yu's embarrassed expression, her body shaking back and forth. Mei Yu looked at Ning Jie's swaying figure and the phrase "weak willow in the wind" involuntarily appeared in her mind.

  Ning Jie laughed for half a day, patted her shoulder and sent her out the door with a sunny smile: "Don't worry, this time it's just playing a little maid."

  Little maid? Mei Yu suddenly had a subtle feeling, she stopped in her tracks at the door, turned around and looked at Ning Jie, politely asking: "What's this play, who is the director?"

  Ning's sister tilted her head, adding a touch of innocence to her mature charm. Mei Yu suddenly realized that Ning's sister liked to speak with her head turned, avoiding the oppressive feeling of direct eye contact while not making the conversation object feel rude.

  Ning thought for a moment and hesitated before saying: "It seems to be Han Wu's something history, it's a TV series directed by a new director."

  The big stone in Meiyu's heart fell to the ground with a thud, and she asked very affirmatively: "Is it 'Han Wu Secret History'? Directed by Zheng Qiu."

  Ning Jie nodded vaguely and patted Mei Yu's shoulder with a look of appreciation: "Not bad, it's this movie, how is it? Are you interested?"

  Ning Jie's beautiful eyes scanned around, lowering her voice to say: "I heard that the girl who was originally playing this role was hospitalized due to drug use, and since they urgently needed someone, they found me."

  Plum rain bitter smile, what kind of entanglement is this, Ang's role that was bought with a lot of money finally fell back to herself.

  Plum Rain pursed her lips, and a good-looking arc rose from the corner of her mouth as she smiled: "Do I have a choice?"

  Ning Jie looked at her, thinking that this girl was quite interesting. The two of them burst out laughing together. Ning Jie told her to wait a moment, turned around and took out a business card, skillfully slipping it into the neckline of Mei Yu's dress, and then gently patted Mei Yu's chest. Looking at Mei Yu's pale face suddenly turning bright red, Ning Jie had a teasing expression: "Not bad, quite promising."

  After saying that, Ning Jie turned around and went back into the house. Before closing the door, she stuck out half of her head again, tilted her face, winked with her right eye, and lightly reminded: "Don't be late, okay."

  Plum rain stood for a while in disappointment, reinvigorated herself, picked up the bag and strode towards the west house of the quadrangle courtyard, and soon arrived at the door.

  The curtains were pulled up from the inside, and only two silhouettes could be seen outside. Both of them had slender figures. Mei Yu knocked on the door lightly twice, and immediately someone inside asked, "Who is it?"

  "Newcomer," she replied in a smooth tone, "and living with you all."

  The door was suddenly opened from the inside, not in the style of Ning Jie's half-open and half-closed, but wide open, without any obstruction. A girl with a ponytail, wearing a gray sports vest on top and a tight-fitting denim shorts on the bottom, stood casually at the door, stretching out her hand and introducing herself: "Hello, my name is Han Jiali."

  Mei Yu hastily gathered all the bags in one hand, hesitated for a moment, wiped her hand on her skirt, and then grasped Han Jiali's hand, responding briefly: "An Ge."

  Han Jiali grasped her hand, playfully raised an eyebrow and smiled brightly: "I stretched out my hand to help you carry the bag, but instead you threw yourself into my arms."

  Mei Yu immediately took a liking to this cheerful and straightforward girl, she unceremoniously piled all the bags in her hands onto Han Jiali's body, jokingly saying: "Beauty serving me, what an honor indeed."

  Han Jiali hugged the bag with several pairs of shoes, and involuntarily swayed a little, barely standing firm on her feet. Immediately, a pair of slender hands stretched out beside her, these hands were white and delicate, very beautiful, taking over one of the bags in Han Jiali's arms. A slightly husky female voice scolded from the side: "Showing off again, huh?"

  Plum Rain looked back at the sound and saw a girl wearing a silver-gray long dress, with a white flowery belt around her waist, elegantly holding Plum Rain's bag. Her face was not as beautiful as her hands, but it was very pale, with large features that made people feel she had a lot of temperament.

  The girl smiled faintly in the face of the plum rain and calmly spat out two words: "Qin Rong."

  Mei Yu smiled politely at her, some people need you to respond enthusiastically, while others just need a gentleman's agreement.

  It's clear that her new roommate is of two different types, but judging from the harmonious atmosphere between them, they should both be easy to get along with.

  Han Jiali enthusiastically helped Mei Yu tidy up a bed, asked if she had no quilt, and even brought over her own freshly washed and dried quilt. Fortunately, it was summer, so one quilt plus a spring-autumn quilt would do.
