“Mine? What good news could I possibly have? I haven’t bought any lottery tickets recently,” Ning Ran replied lazily.

“As if you need to buy a lottery ticket. Youare the lottery ticket! We’re all waiting for you to win the lottery, so to speak. We’re gonna be rich!” Cheng Xiangyun exclaimed.

“Just what are you trying to say? Out with it! Stop dragging this on.”

“Keep your pants on, woman. This is great news that I have to say. Let me get in the right mood.”

“The heck? How long are you going to take to get in the mood? Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I’m heading off to sleep.” Ning Ran stood up.

“Aww, why you gotta spoil my fun? This truly is wonderful news! Like really, really great news!” Cheng Xiangyun pushed Ning Ran back down on the couch. “Sit down!”

Their banter really had helped to lift Ning Ran’s initial glum mood.

“Hurry up and tell me. It’s getting late and I really do need to sleep.”

“Do you remember Wang Xiaoou?”

“Do you even need to ask? She’s the manager Star Entertainment assigned to me; of course, I know who she is! What about her? Did she bully you?”

“No, no. Honestly, she didn’t. However, I was in a meeting with her today, and I have to say, no wonder she’s one of the best managers around. The way she does things is just so amazing! I really have a lot to learn from her.”

“Oh, have you been turned over to the dark side already? That’s not like you at all. I thought you would have felt threatened by her and expected you to complain about how annoying she was.”

“Nope. I’m not that petty. She really is a lot more experienced and knowledgeable than I am. I’m being honest when I say there are so many things I could learn from her.”

“Alright. So your wonderful news is that you were in a meeting with her and discovered how much you could learn from her? Is that it?”
