YangMeng sat inside a private room of a themed restaurant waiting for YouQi. At 12:05 pm in the afternoon, a fully armed handsome Mr. You quickly went into the private room of this restaurant.

YangMeng lifted his eyelids looked at the person opposite of him. Then, silently tells him, "I'm sorry but there's someone sitting here."

"I'm YouQi."

YangMeng raised his head in shock. Opposite him, YouQi was taking off his hat, wig, moustache, scarf......

"Won't you get heat rashes wearing so much on such a hot summer day?"

"Almost." YouQi used a wet cloth to wipe his face, "I don't have a choice, that drama from the movie premiere a few days ago forced me into the limelight. I don't know which asshole opened their mouth! I was on the headlines of the entertainment news the next day, and since then, I've been followed every day......"

YangMeng lowered his head consciously.

YouQi asked again, "What have you been busy with these few days?"

"Me?" YangMeng pondered for a while and said casually, "Just going to work and overtime."

"How much are you getting paid for overtime?" YouQi asked.

YangMeng glared immediately, "Overtime pay? Is there such a thing as fucking overtime pay? More like working for somebody else for nothing!"

YouQi's was shocked, "I heard that the salaries of civil workers like you are very good. There's a lot of hidden income!"

YangMeng pinched the cheap looking souvenir shirt he got from the zoo and grimaced.

"I'm telling you, even with this cheap looking shirt, I won't even wear on a normal day. Does this look like I would have hidden income? Let me put it this way, if all of the civil servants in China have hidden incomes, there's only one person that had fallen short and that would definitely be me. Every month I'm relying on that little over three thousand yuan to survive and it's still so fucking tiring."

"A little over three thousand yuan?" YouQi was astounded, "Is that even enough for breakfast?"

"Of course, just buying breakfast alone could be more than 3,000 yuan a month??"

YouQi didn't reply.

YangMeng looked into his eyes and suddenly realized how ridiculous his words might have sounded to YouQi.

"That right, I forgot what your job is. Yours should be way beyond that right? Even three thousand yuan would not be enough for one breakfast meal for people like you, right?"

YouQi looked at YangMeng, dumbfounded, "Aren't you overly exaggerating? How could it be that much?"

YangMeng pulled YouQi's arm and looked at his watch.

"How much is this watch?"

"I didn't have to buy it. It was sponsored by the brand that I endorsed."

"Then how much is it worth in the market?"

"It varies. There are expensive and cheap ones, ranging from a few thousand to a few million."

"I'm specifically asking this model that you are wearing."

"This model is only about one hundred to two hundred thousand."

YangMeng was so stunned, he immediately released YouQi's arm and said angrily, "It's only two hundred thousand? Isn't this fucking exaggerating enough? How much more exaggeration do you need? This is already two years of my salary! They just gave it to you for nothing?"
