chapter 7

“By the way, dad, I have to go into the set the day after tomorrow. I’m out of money on my credit card, and I’ll have to treat the crew to dinner then ……” Li Xiao desperately hinted at Li Nanjue to quickly help her pay off her credit card so she could keep swiping it.

Li Nanjue was silent for a moment and said, “I’ll have my assistant fix this.”

Li Xiao sounded cheerful, “I also have my eye on a villa~”

She continued to hint at Li Nanjue.

Zhan Jiayin felt that he couldn’t go on like this. Although the Li family is rich, they can’t afford Li Xiao’s spending power.

She gently asked, “Is it uncomfortable to live at home? It’s better for Xiaoxiao to live at home, at least there is someone to take care of you.”

Li Xiao glanced at her, “It’s too tiring to drive back and forth every day. Did you live at home even before filming?”

Zhan Jiayin was about to say something else when Li Xiao showed an impatient look, “When Li Qianxing was studying abroad, he also bought the house directly for convenience, right?”

She followed with a gloomy expression, “If mom was still around, I wouldn’t have to be stopped from even buying a house. There really is a difference between a real mother and a stepmother. I thought I could treat my aunt as my own mother.”

That familiar feeling of suffocation came up again, and Zhan Jiayin felt aggrieved. With Li Xiao’s character, buying a house must be buying a big villa with high price, so it’s normal for her to ask a question. She just asked a question, how come Li Xiao acted as if she had bullied her?

Hearing his daughter mention Xu Manqin, Li Nanjue’s expression moved slightly and was quite complicated. Although he still loathed Xu Manqin’s ruthlessness without limits, and did not regret what he did to the Xu family. But initially when the marriage was joined, Xu Manqin did give him some help, which cannot be erased.

Before he knew about the existence of Qian Xing and Qian Fei, Li Xiao had also been his only daughter, the first lady of the Li family who was held in the palm of his hand.

He hammered home, “It’s just buying a house, it’s not a big deal.”

Besides, a house is also a kind of asset. Buying a house for Xiaoxiao is better than buying other things randomly.

After asking Li Xiao about the money she needed, he took another card and gave it to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao originally wanted to use the termination of the contract to poke another amount of money from Li Nanjue’s side. But such an obvious stroking of the wool, even a rich man like Li Nanjue would not be able to stand it and would only get angry, so it would be better to wait for a while longer.

With the money in hand and the big house, even if the original owner comes back and tears his face off with Li Nanjue, then the rest of his life he won’t have to worry about living without money.

In order to avoid a long night, she is going to go tomorrow to buy the villa. She also packed all the jewelry and designer items in her room and prepared to take them to the villa together.

Although she didn’t know the jewelry market, but looking at those shiny jewelry, it would add up to hundreds of millions of dollars.

The next day, she couldn’t wait to go with Ai Wen to find the diva Zhang Hanbi.

The price Zhang Hanbi offered was $85 million, which was a fair price, after all, the decoration of her villa was really good. The villa’s decoration is really good, plus the location is quite good, so it will be easy to sell the villa in the future. The only thing that made Li Xiao a little depressed was that she still had to pay a few million in taxes.

Zhang Hanbi has a big red wavy head and looks very charming, she is also a sharp person, she accompanied Li Xiao to do the closing procedures on the same day, Li Xiao likes such a crisp person. She also liked the fact that Zhang Hanbi was also a friend of Ai Wen’s, so she didn’t mind giving her a favor.

“Your heavenly court is full and your nose is like a hanging gut, you have a rich look at first glance.” She first praised Zhang Hanbi’s looks, and then turned her head, “But I see that you have horizontal red marks on your sigmoid and median area, and red dots under your eyes, I am afraid that you are going to break your fortune in the recent week, and it should be because of the broken fortune caused by the rebellion between husband and wife.”

Ai Wen was listening with a smile on her face, but when she heard this, she couldn’t help but glare at Li Xiao, “You don’t think you’re an expert just because you read a few books online. What red marks, how can I not see? Besides, Hambi is not married, where is the couple’s rebellion.”

Li Xiao is confident in her own face level, of course ordinary people can not see this. If you can see it, then you are not an ordinary person. Like Li Nanjue and Zhan Jiayin, judging from their faces, they were rich faces for some time to come.

On the other hand, Zhang Hanbi has frozen. Everyone in the circle thought she was single until now, except for her handful of close friends, no one knew she was actually married. The object of her marriage is the circle of traffic Xu Renda, girlfriend fans. This time is also because Xu Renda and his company had a very unpleasant, ready to terminate the contract. However, when Xu Renda was signed, the breach of contract was set very high. In order to pay him this money, she was ready to sell the villa.

If Li Xiao had simply said that she would lose money recently, Zhang Hanbi might not have taken it to heart. But the other party pointed out the truth of her hidden marriage in one word ……

Ai Wen looked at Zhang Hanbi’s expression and more or less guessed a bit, the corners of her mouth twitched, “Wait, you’re really married?”

Zhang Hanbi came back to her senses and regained her calm expression. She picked up a teacup and took a sip of tea.

This gesture is clearly a default.

Li Xiao reminded, also considered to send a favor, she did not say anything else, just concentrated on eating. Not to mention, the dessert is really good, no worse than the dessert chef specially hired by the Li family.

She ate with flying eyebrows, but the other two people at the table tasted like wax, obviously not in the mood to enjoy the food. So the rest of the meal went to Li Xiao and basically went into her stomach.

When she finished the meal, Ai Wen sent Li Xiao home first, and in the car, she couldn’t resist asking again: “Xiao Xiao, do you know any master? Did that master ask you to remind Zhang Hanbi?”

Other than that, she couldn’t think of any other reason.

Li Xiao patted her shoulder and said, “I see your face, recently there are bad peach blossoms at home, pay attention to it.”

She pushed open the car door and got out.

Ai Wen looked at her back, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and only after half a second did she murmur, “Really?”

Although there was still some disbelief, she obviously took Li Xiao’s words to heart.

*****

“Stop, re-shoot this section again!” The director said.

Once again ng Zhan Jiayin bit her lower lip and apologized to everyone, “Sorry, I’m not in a good state today, I’ll adjust as soon as possible and try not to drag everyone down as much as possible.”

This scene, she has ng more than ten times. But once she thought about what happened at Li’s house last night, it was hard for Zhan Jiayin to concentrate on the scene.

After so many times in a row, the director would say that there is no opinion at all, that is impossible. The performance of Zhan Jiayin today is very sorry for her title of queen of the film. But Zhan Jiayin put down her stance and sincerely apologized, plus she was still Mrs. Li, the director could only put up with it, and had to comfort her with kind words, “Everyone has bad times, why don’t you go take a break first?”

He better shoot other people’s scenes first, can’t be delayed because of Zhan Jiayin alone.

Zhan Jiayin nodded, just down, the assistant will cut the chilled watermelon to serve. The watermelon is cut into pieces, emitting coolness, looking at people’s summer heat all gone.

Zhan Jiayin said to the assistant: “You also go to rest.” She paused for a moment and added: “In the evening, go buy some barbecue, beer and drinks, invite everyone to have a snack, buy more, don’t miss the staff, they are also very hard.”

She was consistently good at being human and immediately thought of a way to make amends.

Ren Siao Tang, who was walking towards Zhan Jiayin, happened to hear this and a gentle expression surfaced on his face. Jiayin was just kind, even if they were ordinary staff members, she never looked down on them and treated them equally. Even after staying in this circle for so long, her kind nature has never changed, just as it did at the beginning. He was too busy last year and originally planned to take a year off this year. But knowing that Jiayin took the film, he couldn’t resist auditioning for the male lead as well. If you can’t be with her in reality, then it’s good to satisfy his wish in the movie.

When Zhan Jiayin heard footsteps and turned his head, his tone then had a few more smiles, “One of the servings remember not to add cilantro and green onions, our great movie star doesn’t like to eat.”

Ren Siao Tang coughed, “You still remember my taste ah.”

Zhan Jiayin smiled sweetly, “We are friends.”

The tenderness on Ren Siao Tang’s face almost turned into substance, and the deep eyes made Zhan Jiayin’s ears a little hot, so she hurriedly changed the subject, “Is my face makeup blown?”

Ren Siao Tang lowered his eyes and sat down next to her, “No, I just see that you’ve been haggard lately. Are you troubled by anything these days?”

Zhan Jiayin wanted to say something, but shook her head, “No, nothing at all. It’s just that the weather is hot, so I’m in an irritable mood.”

Her gesture fell in Ren Jiao Tang’s eyes, but it was clear that she was trying to cover up.

Ren Jiao Tang’s face sank, “Is someone bullying you for being good-natured?”

Zhan Jiayin forced a smile, “Who can bully me now, don’t think too much.”

But Ren Siao Tang didn’t believe her. JiaYin is always like this, even if she is bullied, she never refuses to report it and bears the burden alone in silence. Even if he asked, she would not say anything.

The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.

“Who has been giving Jiayin a hard time lately?”

Although Li Nanjue is his love rival, and they hate each other, but Ren Siao Tang is also clear that Li Nanjue also loves Jiayin and will not bully her, otherwise he would not have simply let go of her in the first place.

The assistant Xiao Gao suddenly showed an exasperated expression, “Besides that Missy, who else would there be.”

Lai Xiao.

A gorgeous and condescending face came to mind, and disgust flew across his eyes. Sure enough, it was her. Li Nanjue’s eldest daughter had often targeted Jiayin, so he couldn’t help but take action and teach her a small lesson.

I thought she would learn to behave a little after she had suffered. However, she still did what she was told and went on to bully Jiayin. It seems that she hadn’t suffered enough.

Good, very good!

A girl, he did not believe he could not teach her a lesson.
