At the very least, we need some makeup, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Makeup? Never mind Boss Yang; almost everyone was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’re just recording a reality show; are you really getting that into character?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You even want to wear makeup?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you really think of yourself as a beggar?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While they were talking, Zhang Zhang Zhang Xiaoyan had already run back with a piece of clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Meng smiled at the camera and began to violently tear at the clothes, explaining as he did so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, dressing up as a real beggar wouldn’t be quite right, but wearing some tattered clothes at least counts as being dedicated, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This piece of clothing is from Hailan House, which I endorse. Today, I’ll wear this to go begging.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I have to tear it first… tear it…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face turned beet red as he exerted all his strength, but the clothing in his hands didn’t budge an inch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Meng was instantly embarrassed. Damn it, why did you make this clothing so sturdy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is going to make me look weak and feeble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doesn’t this just confirm that I’m a ‘little fresh meat’ idol?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that his little assistant wasn’t coming to help but was instead covering her mouth to hide her laughter, Su Meng was instantly enraged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhang Zhang Zhang Xiaoyan! What are you still standing there for? Why haven’t you gone to find a pair of scissors?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Caw, caw, caw*… It seemed as if a few crows flew over everyone’s heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you actually serious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You really want to tear up your clothes to make a beggar’s outfit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dedication! Truly, damnably dedicated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Duan Jiangping turned his neck stiffly, his face mournful, tears almost flowing out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I remember correctly, Hailan House is Su Meng’s biggest endorsement, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Qin nodded and said affirmatively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, your memory is truly excellent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Based on my twenty years of professional experience as an agent, Su Meng wearing Hailan House clothes to go begging is a massive blow to the brand’s image.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“According to the contract we signed, we will have to pay a huge penalty for breach of contract.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Duan Jiangping sighed and silently put away his tea leaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Drinking tea isn’t healthy. I think plain boiled water tastes better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Drink another cup of plain water and go get to work. Find Su Meng a few more business deals…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, have you forgotten?” Sister Qin mercilessly stabbed a few more knives into his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A few days ago, you turned down all the business collaborations yourself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Duan Jiangping froze instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, he sighed and slowly scooped up a handful of dirt from the flowerpot nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He mixed it with his tears a few times, stuffed it into his mouth, and said indistinctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You know, this stuff actually tastes pretty good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You should try some too; after all, this will be our staple food for the rest of our lives…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Qin sighed. Just as she reached out to grab a handful of dirt, her phone suddenly rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the call, a strange expression appeared on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, Boss… you don’t have a heart condition, do you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Duan Jiangping rubbed the dirt into a small mud ball and stuffed it into his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead and say it. I’ve already taken my emergency heart medication.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expression on Sister Qin’s face became even stranger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, Hailan House just called…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their public opinion monitoring shows that netizens’ approval of Hailan House’s quality has suddenly skyrocketed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And they feel that Hailan House is a truly down-to-earth brand, so their favorability has increased significantly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So… they are proactively raising the price and want to renew Su Meng’s endorsement for the next season…” ===== CHAPTER 115 =====\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~~ Caw, caw, caw~~~~*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the office, a cold current seemed to have swept through, instantly freezing Duan Duan Jiangping into a sculpture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few crows were still flying over his head, *cawing*…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Meng looked at his own tattered clothes and nodded with satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad, not bad. Only now do I barely look like a beggar.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Honey, aren’t you going to change yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Boss Yang could answer, he slapped his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, right. You’re a girl, so you’re not as strong. You can’t tear your clothes, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Put that piece of clothing down, let me do it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t look at me like that; I might not be able to tear a man’s clothes, but I’m quite skilled at tearing a woman’s.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the livestream chat, a sea of question marks instantly flew by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re skilled at tearing women’s clothes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did I just discover something incredible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Yang was also stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of wild, reckless talk is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is a live broadcast!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you have any idea what kind of storm this will cause if it gets out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking, Boss Yang quickly reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then go ahead and try.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this piece of clothing is from Balenciaga, which I endorse.
