He ended the call after chatting with his father, Xiao Zhiyuan. Just as he was about to call Su Li to tell her that he would not be in Xiahai for a while, the door of the apartment opened and Su Li walked in.
She was wearing a light blue dress with a lapel and a corset, revealing her delicate white arms. She wore a thin platinum necklace around her beautiful neck, looking gentle and quiet.
Xiao Luo was already used to her coming in without greeting him. Instead, he was a little surprised and asked, "You're back?"
He had been filming out of town, so he was very surprised to see Su Li.
"It just so happens that I have two days of free time. There are some matters at Liyue Media that I need to deal with personally, so I came back." Su Li walked over and her red lips parted slightly.
Xiao Luo smelled a faint fragrance on his face. He knew that this was Su Li's body fragrance. It was very unique. Sometimes, he did not even need to see the person, he just needed to smell the fragrance to know that it was this woman.
He walked over to the water dispenser and poured two cups of water, one for her and one for himself.
"That's just right. I have something to tell you. I'm leaving Xiahai tomorrow for a trip. It might take me ten days to half a month to come back." Xiao Luo handed over the cup of tea in his hand.
Su Li's pretty face did not show much emotion. She took the tea and sat down on the sofa in the living room. Her two slender jade legs naturally crossed and leaned to one side. She asked, "Where are you going?"
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm just going on a trip." Xiao Luo raised his eyebrows and casually said something to fool her.
"Trip?"
Su Li frowned. "You're quite leisurely and elegant. No wonder you quit your job at Huayao Group."
"I have my own plans and plans for my career." Xiao Luo said.
"I know, so I won't interfere with you anymore. I'll wait for you to make a big name for yourself." Su Li glanced at him.
At the mention of career, Xiao Luo thought of his Lo Fong.
By the time he returned from Libya, Lo Fong would be entering the Xiahai market. By then, there would be a tough battle with this woman's Sumir. Just the thought of it gave him a headache.
"By the way, a close friend of mine in Lo Fong told me that in half a month, Lo Fong will enter Xia Hai. You …"
"I've known about this for a long time."
Before Xiao Luo could finish, Su Li interrupted him.
"You know?" Xiao Luo frowned.
Su Li raised her head and looked at him seriously. "The purchase, renovation, promotion of the store, and the construction of the processing plant. Lo Fong has made ample preparations in Xia Hai for this debut. As the boss of Sumir, if I can't even notice this, then I might as well give up the market as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Xiao Luo didn't know how to react. This woman looked calm on the surface, but she knew Lo Fong's actions in Xia Hai like the back of her hand. This made him suddenly feel a lot of pressure.
He asked tentatively, "If, and I'm just saying if, Lo Fong wants to form a strategic business partnership with you, will you agree?"
"To form a strategic business partnership, the two companies must be on the same level. Lo Fong doesn't have any foundation in Xia Hai, and it doesn't have any trump cards. It's like you have a complete cake, but then a stranger comes and asks to share it with you. Will you agree?" Su Li took a small sip of tea.
Xiao Luo shook his head. "No."
He sighed in his heart. Based on his understanding of Su Li, if the two companies wanted to cooperate, he would have to convince this woman. Moreover, she had already made her stance clear. In other words, Lo Fong was not qualified to talk about cooperation with her.
After a moment of silence, Su Li put down her teacup, raised her head, and asked curiously, "You seem to be very concerned about my Sumir recently. Is there a reason?"
Xiao Luo was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "Although you and I aren't really husband and wife, we're still husband and wife in name. I heard that Lo Fong is going to enter the Xia Hai market, so it's not strange that I'm concerned about your Sumir."
"You don't have to worry about this. Zhiying and I can handle it," Su Li said.
"That's good."
Xiao Luo replied strangely, then changed the topic. "It's already so late. Why don't we go over and rest together?"
As soon as he said this, he realized that something was wrong. This was not in line with his style. It was a bit like a hooligan. After thinking about it, he finally blamed it on Zhang Dashan. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Being so close to that guy, he more or less picked up some bad habits.
Su Li blushed. She rolled her eyes at Xiao Luo and said, "When did you become so indecent?"
Xiao Luo laughed dryly and tried to explain. "We're chatting, so one of us has to liven up the atmosphere. Otherwise, the air will suddenly freeze."
"Crazy!"
Su Li commented. She stood up and prepared to leave.
However, as soon as she stood up from the sofa, she felt dizzy. It was as if the world was spinning. She could only sit back down on the sofa. A sense of weakness erupted like a flood, and her body was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
Seeing this, Xiao Luo stepped forward and touched her forehead with the back of his hand. He then squatted down and took her pulse.
The result of taking her pulse was that this woman was too busy and tired. It was to the point that she had symptoms of insufficient blood and Qi.
"You know how to take a pulse in Chinese medicine?" Su Li asked tiredly.
"A little."
Xiao Luo said. "You've been too tired recently. You don't look any different, but your body is weak. This is a signal from your body to rest."
"Liyue Media is slowly getting on the right track. My schedule is also quite full. Do you think I can rest?" Su Li laughed at herself.
"You're a woman. Why are you so hard on yourself? Besides, the money you're earning now can't be spent in this lifetime." Xiao Luo reprimanded.
Su Li was indifferent. However, she did not retract her hand and let Xiao Luo hold it. "I'll be fine after resting for a while."
"Okay, I'll help you."
Xiao Luo reached out and touched her forehead gently. A gentle inner force burst out from his fingertip.
Su Li closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
This was a unique technique from the Yi Jinjing. It could make a person fall into a deep sleep and completely empty their mind. High-quality sleep was the best medicine to solve the problem of physical weakness.
"Workaholic!"
Xiao Luo shook his head helplessly. He carried her into the bedroom and gently placed her on the bed. He then covered her with the blanket.
He closed the door and walked out quietly. He then called Zhang Dashan and told him about his mission in Libya.
"Old Xiao, you have to be careful. Don't let me send you off," Zhang Dashan said.
"Send you off, my foot!"
Xiao Luo replied in a huff. He then continued, "Oh, right. You better stop saying such things in front of me. I accidentally did it with a woman just now. It's all because of you."
