Chapter 738: The crying child gets the milk

Xiao Yun shook her head, also feeling it was somewhat outrageous: "I'm not sure, but this man is fierce enough."

And although they thought Director Li Xiao's staff would be relatively tough, they didn't expect that after being scolded by that man, the staff actually said in a good-natured way: "Please don't be agitated. I'll help coordinate here to see if I can help Teacher Ke'er change to a slightly more spacious room."

That man pushed his luck: "I want a suite! Domestic express hotels have suites, so there must be some here too."

"Alright, I'll do my best."

This scene left Shen Li's group dumbfounded. A-Pan sneered: "Heh, it really is the crying child who gets the milk. If we had known, we would have gone to fight for A-Li too."

"Absolutely not!" Shen Li said, full of resistance upon hearing this: "I have no requirements for accommodation; as long as it's clean, that's fine. Besides, which one of you can point at a staff member's nose and yell like this person?"

A-Pan and Xiao Yun looked at each other, and then both laughed.

Neither of them could be that fierce, so they'd better forget it.

"Besides, that staff member is also just doing things according to the arrangements. If everyone went to coordinate, he wouldn't have to do his job." Shen Li said, pulling her own suitcase: "Let's go, let's go up."

"Sister, what about me? Where do I stay?" Guang Rong raised his hand to signal that he didn't have a room card.

Shen Li looked at him and said: "You wait downstairs first. I'll book another hotel nearby for you."

After Shen Li arranged her own things, she took Guang Rong and walked through two blocks, entering a grand luxury hotel in an extremely prosperous area.

As soon as they entered, the magnificent lobby alone gave people a feeling of decadence.

"Sister, why book me separately here? I could stay at that crew hotel with you guys." Guang Rong grabbed Shen Li, feeling some resistance in his heart.

If they were staying here together, that would be one thing, but his sister was staying in that small hotel while arranging for him to stay in such a luxury hotel here; he felt uncomfortable.

Shen Li just looked at him with gentle brows and eyes, smiling, and explained softly: "I'm out here for work, and obeying the crew's arrangements is my professional ethics. But you're different; you're out here for vacation, here to play, so naturally, the experience is the first priority."

"I've already paid the money; it can't be refunded."

After finishing, Shen Li pulled Guang Rong directly to the front desk. The staff member handling the check-in was a blonde, blue-eyed foreign beauty who politely asked in English where the two were from.

Shen Li was about to speak, but didn't expect Guang Rong to answer the other party's question in English, and handed over his passport to ask the other party to help with the check-in.

Although his English pronunciation wasn't authentic enough, his grammar was correct, and the other party could understand him completely.

Shen Li was somewhat surprised and also somewhat pleasantly surprised: "Not bad, Guang Rong. I didn't expect your English to be okay."

"It's just this one hobby." Guang Rong scratched his head embarrassedly: "I've had an interest in English since I started watching American dramas in middle school. I couldn't understand other subjects in my studies, but my English grades have always been good."

And because of the habit of watching American dramas, his spoken grammar was very colloquial and very suitable for daily communication.

"It's so convenient to know English. If I'm busy after I turn on my phone, you can go stroll around the neighborhood by yourself."

Guang Rong nodded and said: "It's okay, Sister. You busy yourself with your serious business; I can manage by myself."

After settling Guang Rong, Shen Li returned to the crew's small hotel, only to run into Xu Ke'er and her team in the elevator.

Among them was the middle-aged man who had just made things difficult for the staff in the lobby on the first floor.

"Hello, Sister Ke'er, I'm Shen Li."

Shen Li took the initiative to greet her. Although Xu Ke'er was not as good as her in terms of traffic and awards, Xu Ke'er had debuted a few years earlier and was considered a senior. Shen Li taking the initiative to greet her was entirely out of a junior's politeness.

Xu Ke'er was about twenty-five years old this year. She had been in the industry for four or five years and had always been lukewarm, playing supporting roles. She had name recognition, but it had nothing to do with being popular.

Compared to a newcomer like Shen Li who became popular as soon as she debuted and had even won authoritative awards, she was completely like a control group.

Xu Ke'er was wearing sunglasses. After hearing Shen Li's words, she pretended to hesitate and frowned. A few seconds later, she suddenly realized: "Oh, Shen Li? I know you. I've heard of you."

Shen Li just kept smiling and had no intention of expanding the topic further.

The elevator door closed, and it slowly went up. Then she heard the middle-aged man suddenly ask Shen Li: "Shen Li, is the room you're staying in big?"

Shen Li turned her head to look at him. At this time, he was speaking in a normal tone, which was not as aggressive and ear-piercing.

"Not big." Shen Li said truthfully.

Upon hearing this, the man looked at Xu Ke'er and raised his eyebrows, a touch of triumph in his eyes.

The elevator reached the 7th floor. As Shen Li was going out, she heard Xu Ke'er suddenly say: "Come to my room to hang out when you have time. I have a separate living room here."

Shen Li still smiled. When the elevator door closed, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.

She can naturally tell whether someone is being truly enthusiastic or just politely fake toward her, and her own constant smiling is purely out of politeness.

Xu Ke'er in the elevator was the same. As soon as the door closed, she couldn't help but pout and roll her eyes, saying in a disdainful tone: "Isn't it said that this Shen Li has a very strong background? Why didn't the crew arrange a better room for her?"

"That just means it's not strong enough." The male manager beside her sneered: "In this circle, there are many people with backgrounds."

As soon as Shen Li returned to her room, the room door was knocked on. Outside the door was Tan Yue.

"A-Li, the top-floor restaurant has opened for meals. Are you going?"

Shen Li glanced at the time. Although she was a bit tired, her stomach was indeed a bit hungry, so she nodded and said: "Alright, then you go up first. I'll come after I change my clothes."

After changing into loose and comfortable clothes, Shen Li took the elevator to the top-floor restaurant, but didn't expect the restaurant to be full of people.

The entire business hotel wasn't big, but it had been booked in advance by the crew. Everyone staying here was an actor or staff member of the crew. It was said that even Director Li Xiao didn't make any exceptions, and everyone lived here.

So when the restaurant opened for meals at this time, everyone came up, and they were all Chinese.

"A-Li!" Tan Yue waved his hand; he had occupied a seat early.

Shen Li walked over, looked down, and found that Tan Yue's plate was actually full of Chinese food, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Chinese food?"

Tan Yue nodded excitedly: "The crew specially hired a Chinese chef. We can eat Chinese food during this period, but there are also some Western dishes to choose from, but I see no one touching them."

Shen Li looked around. Apart from Tan Yue, there were indeed a few familiar faces, which were the few young actors of the same age from the previous audition. ===== CHAPTER 739 =====
