As she continued talking, Yan Ruchun started to criticize her again: "Look at you, back when I told you to quickly stage these plays, you insisted on waiting. Now look, all those plays have been snatched by other theaters. Even if we wanted to stage them now, it’s hard to win the audience back!"
Yan Ruchun clutched her chest in pain. That was all money, money! Watching so much money flow away right in front of her made her heart shatter.
Ha ha, ha ha.
Seeing Yan Ruchun’s greedy little face, Lin Yuan laughed until her stomach hurt.
However, as soone was about to glare daggers at her, Lin Yuan quickly suppressed her laughter and put on a serious face.
"Alright, alright, Eldest Miss Yan, don’t be angry. They’re just small fry, how can they compare with our Chanyin Pavilion?"
"Small fry! Don’t you know that our Chanyin Pavilion has dropped from the top five to eighth in the Capital city? Eighth! If we drop any further, we’ll be out of business!"
Before Lin Yuan could finish, she was interrupted by Yan Ruchun’s incredulous shout: "Now, I feel disgraced every ti I step out of the house!"
Not only disgraced, but Yan Ruchun also felt embarrassed every ti she went out. Those noble young ladies she used to disdain now seed to find an outlet, starting to gossip about Chanyin Pavilion’s poor business and reputation as soon as they saw her, even advising her to go ho and prepare to marry Wei Boyu.
Oh heavens, weren’t those irritating words always coming from her mouth before? How did everything turn upside down now?
Thinking about how she was left speechless by those noble young ladies, Yan Ruchun gritted her teeth in anger.
You just wait, once our Chanyin Pavilion’s business picks up, I’ll make sure you can’t set foot through our front door!
Lin Yuan wasn’t aware of these things, but she could guess that Chanyin Pavilion’s business wasn’t doing well. Otherwise, Yan Ruchun wouldn’t disturb her during her convalescence, always asking about her health.
Having a friend like this, Lin Yuan felt very much at ease and naturally wouldn’t let her bear all the pressure by herself.
"To be honest, I’ve been idle these days and have written so plays that I think are quite good."
Giving a look to Yin Xing, she went to the desk and brought over the papers Lin Yuan had written before.
Upon hearing that Lin Yuan had written so good stuff in advance out of foresight, Yan Ruchun’s eyes lit up.
However, when she saw the papers Yin Xing handed over, it was like she fell from a mountain into an abyss.
"The Butterfly Lovers, Record of the Western Chamber? These, these are all just titles, where’s the content? Even if there’s no content, at least give a summary!"
Yan Ruchun was about to collapse. She now seriously suspected that Lin Yuan was truly pregnant and had beco forgetful, even forgetting the common sense that plays need to have content.
Lin Yuan chuckled: "You ca too suddenly, I haven’t had ti to write the content yet!"
Yan Ruchun: "..."
In truth, Lin Yuan wasn’t lacking ti, she was just too lazy to write it.
But now was no ti for laziness. Any more laziness and there wouldn’t be any Silver to earn, which for a money-lover like Lin Yuan was as serious as a fish having no water, life-threatening!
Yan Ruchun pointed at the few sheets of paper with the titles written on them, poking and pointing: "Considering your physical inconvenience, I won’t give you too many tasks, just these three plays, you..."
"Choose one at random?"
Lin Yuan blinked her innocent eyes, hopefully looking at Yan Ruchun.
Yan Ruchun smiled prettily, revealing the most harmless and pure smile of her life: "Write them all!"
Lin Yuan: "..."
