Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 10: Meeting Jiro Wang on the Road

"If I hadn't met you"

"Where will I be"

“How are you doing?”

“Should we cherish our life?”

“Maybe I know someone.”

……

"I Only Care About You" by Teresa Teng, the most popular song in the 1980s, is playing.

After Wu Zhuo returned to the store, he glanced towards the counter and saw that grandma was indeed listening to music quietly there.

The older generation has little interest in pop songs.

To her, Jay Chou, whom Wu Zhuo likes, is just a piece of shit. She likes Teresa Teng, Su Rui, and Han Baoyi.

Although she is immersed in the past, she still likes to watch idol dramas and must watch them every night.

"Grandma! If I have the chance in the future, I will release a record and you can listen to it every day."

Wu Zhuo walked over and hugged her from behind, smiling.

However, the originally warm scene was broken in the next moment.

Snapped!
"Hiss, Grandma, why did you hit me?"

Wu Zhuo quickly retracted the hand that he was holding on to his grandma.

"A slap in the face would be too light a punishment."

Grandma turned around, looking disappointed.

"Tell me, did you offend Xiao Mi? Why hasn't she come to the store these days?"

"No way, she's obviously stingy!"

Wu Zhuo subconsciously took two steps back.

Grandma will love him and beat him until it hurts.

My predecessor was beaten a lot.

Grandma didn't listen to Wu Chao's explanation and took out a bamboo stick.

He slapped Wu Zhuo on the butt with a loud slap, "You still want to play some tricks.

You must have bullied her!"

"Grandma, I am your grandson!"

Wu Zhuo ran upstairs in a flash, "I was crazy before, it must be because I was beaten too many times by you."

"If you run, you won't be able to eat tonight!"

Returning upstairs, listening to the sounds coming from downstairs, Wu Zhuo couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This old lady was really cruel. My butt is still burning with pain and it’s probably even red.

Also, I'm afraid there won't be any dinner.

Grandma always keeps her word. If she doesn’t allow us to eat dinner, then we won’t eat.

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Zhuo did not return to the room, but climbed down through the second-floor window.

There is no food at home, so go out to eat.

Quietly walking back to the store entrance, he saw grandma still sitting in the store holding a bamboo stick. Wu Zhuo couldn't help but twitch his lips.

I'm waiting for him to come downstairs before fighting again!
He carefully pushed the motorcycle out from its parking position, and after pushing it a certain distance, Wu Zhuo rode away on the motorcycle.

It just so happens that I haven’t had a good time strolling around since I traveled through time, so today is a good opportunity to go for a stroll.

"A-Zhao, you just came back and you want to go out again?"

"You're in good health, so don't drive too fast!"

Most of the neighbors near the street know Wu Chao, and when they see him, they greet him with a smile.

"Grandma Si, I have something to ask!"

"Thank you, Uncle Liu, for the reminder. I am feeling better now."

After speaking a few polite words to the person, Wu Chao stepped on the accelerator and the motorcycle merged into the avenue outside.

He said he was going out for a walk, but when he really went out, Wu Zhuo didn't know where to go for a moment and could only drive his motorcycle around.

"what……"

When passing by Fuxing Road MRT Station, Wu Chao unexpectedly saw a familiar person.

"Brother Dongcheng! Brother Dongcheng!"

Wu Zhuo shouted, and the man walked faster.

Wu Zhuo could only speed up to catch up.

He stopped only when the motorcycle stopped in front of him.

"Wu Zhuo!"

When he saw Wu Zhuo, Jiro Wang hid the things in his hand behind his back.

Wu Zhuo pretended not to see it, "Brother Dongcheng, what are you doing here? I called you several times but you didn't respond." "Nothing, I was just walking around!" Wang Dongcheng said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Have you had dinner? I haven't yet. Let's go together!" Wu Zhuo looked around and saw that there were no restaurants nearby, so he had to walk a little further away.

"No, I..."

"Oh, don't be polite, it's my treat. I passed the audition for Wang Xinling's music video yesterday and I was looking for someone to celebrate with. When I got back to the company, I didn't run into you guys."

Wu Zhuo pulled him over and handed him the motorcycle helmet.

"I just joined the company and I met you and Chen Yiru. I'm counting on you to take care of me in the future!"

Wu Zhuo said with a smile.

"What's the point of talking about taking care of us? You are younger than us, so we should take care of you."

Jiro Wang hesitated for a moment, but still got on the motorcycle.

Wu Zhuo took him and drove forward for a few minutes, and finally found a restaurant.

This is a braised pork rice restaurant.

Business seems good, with many customers, so the food must be delicious.

The two of them went in and found a place to sit down.

At this time, Jiro Wang no longer hid the things that he didn't want Wu Chao to see before.

It's a stack of leaflets.

"Brother Dongcheng is working part-time?"

"Well, the company doesn't have many announcements, and my family needs money, so I'll do some part-time work when I have nothing to do."

Jiro Wang nodded and was no longer embarrassed.

"It's good to work part-time. I originally thought that if the company didn't arrange a notice, I would also find a part-time job."

Everyone thinks that artists are glamorous.

But that's just famous.

For lower-level artists, the announcement fee may not even be enough to make a living.

People like Wu Zhuo and Jiro Wang are actually pretty good.

One of them is almost on the verge of success, with the TV series he starred in already becoming a hit, while the other has been highly promoted since he joined a company.

But even so, Wu Zhuo and Wang Dongcheng's income is actually not that high.

Wu Chao participated in "KO One" and could only get 70,000 yuan for one show.

NT$70,000 is actually just two months' salary.

There are not many such opportunities. It is considered good to have two in a year.

Normally, they actually rely mainly on other announcements, such as shooting commercials for advertising companies and taking photos for magazines.

There aren't many jobs like this, they only happen occasionally.

At other times, they are basically free-range.

If you want to make more money, you have to do other things.

Part-time job is just one of the more common ones.

Jiro Wang thought that Nick Wu would look down on him for his part-time job distributing flyers.

But in fact, Wu Zhuo doesn't know how to do that at all.

He knew that Jiro Wang's family was not well off, and that in order to pay off his debts, he did almost everything, including washing dishes, handing out flyers, and being a model.

Not only did this not make Wu Chao look down on him, on the contrary, he admired him very much.

I admire the other person's independent character and also admire his filial piety.

"Congratulations on getting the chance to shoot Wang Xinling's music video. If you keep working hard, maybe it won't be long before you are close to success."

Jiro Wang is actually not an introvert, on the contrary, he is a very extroverted person.

This was what Wu Zhuo learned after talking with him during a meal.

It’s just that this guy’s extroverted personality is not as talkative as Chen Yiru, and Wang Dongcheng likes to tell jokes.

I really love to talk.

At this time, he was telling Wu Zhuo his jokes.

“Well, Jay Chou was driving to the zoo one time, and while he was driving, he suddenly encountered a lion.

The lion said: Jay Chou, can you give me a ride?

Jay Chou said: Oh, that’s great, Lion, get in the car!
Then we continued driving, and encountered a leopard.

Leopard stopped Jay and said: Jay, can I get in your car?

As Jiro Wang spoke, he imitated the roar of a leopard.

Wu Zhuo looked constipated.

After hearing this, he no longer felt that this was a joke.
