Braised oxtail, lamb chops, braised sea cucumber, and all sorts of other at dishes... The most outrageous part was a huge platter in the middle with a whole roast suckling pig!
This, is this today’s lunch? It’s an ultimate extravagance, practically screaming nouveau riche!
Xia Ziyu looked at him with concern, "Haven’t seen you in a few days, and you’ve lost weight. Just now Anning said that you’re only eating cucumbers and tomatoes every day, where’s the nutrition in that? You should eat more to nourish your body."
Yu Zexiao was stunned, and it took him a while to snap back, "Grandma, it’s not that I don’t want to eat— I have to lose weight. Recently, while Anning was taking care of , I gained a lot of weight."
"You call this fat?" Xia Ziyu was incredulous, gazing at her grandson’s excellent physique before imdiately ordering, "Eat more! How can you have a good physique if you keep losing weight? Young people can’t be like this, they have to take good care of their health to have children sooner!"
"Grandma!" Yu Zexiao was still protesting, anwhile, Shen Lanxiao had already started sorting the dishes on the table, serving the food and putting it into his bowl, "This is your grandma’s loving care, just eat it."
Yu Zexiao, helpless, had no choice but to comply. Only then was Xia Ziyu satisfied, and she sat down, then instructed the servants to give Jian Anning a big serving of food, "Anning, you too, eat more. Keep your body in good shape so you can have children."
Jian Anning thought, she reckoned in Xia Ziyu’s eyes, she was just a massive pregnancy treasure trove.
However, arguing about this with Xia Ziyu, an energetic older lady, seed unnecessary. She silently lowered her head, and the few of them started eating. Xia Ziyu glanced at him, then at her, and just said, "Xingxing, money can’t be earned in a lifeti, but your body is your own! Especially now, you’re not that young anymore, it’s ti to have a child. If you skip als for ’losing weight’ again, watch out, I’ll go to your company and personally drag that Yin... whatever his na is, out!"
Last ti, Yin Maohui had co to the Yu Family’s old house to pick up Yu Zexiao, and Xia Ziyu had t him once, leaving a bit of an impression. This ti she imdiately started with threats, scaring Yu Zexiao into silence.
But Shen Lanxiao was more in the know, asking, "Xingxing, what have you been working on recently?"
"Aside from the new album, I just took on an ad job."
"Filming an ad?" Xia Ziyu perked up, "I wonder what kind of ad it is?"
"A clothing brand’s," Yu Zexiao replied, "They’re paying twenty million! That’s why they demand I lose weight and work out, because they’re offering so much money!"
"Twenty million? For a single ad?" Even Shen Lanxiao was a bit surprised. She had been following Yu Jingxi, handling administrative duties, so she had so understanding. Twenty million—right now it’s tough in the physical industry, the Huanyu Group’s net profit for a year, after costs and expenses, is only several hundred million. Yu Zexiao is earning twenty million just for filming an ad, that’s quite the discrepancy!
She knew her son was famous and made a lot of money, but she hadn’t imagined it would be so exaggerated!
Just as the family was discussing, Yin Maohui called him, "Zexiao, are you there?"
"Uncle Yin, what’s up?"
"It’s about this ad client," Yin Maohui said, "The company wants to sign you, and they’re inviting journalists, dia, and social elites to host a grand banquet!"
