At first, Li Xiao thought that she might be overthinking things, but Lu Zhi's subsequent actions more or less confirmed this point.
Li Xiao had just finished filming a scene when Lu Zhi came over with a cup of coffee. "I heard that you like Guixia coffee, so I specially collected some. Have a taste."
Li Xiao's heart skipped a beat. This Lu Zhi really knew how to ask around. The original owner did like this coffee. The production of this coffee was very low, so it wasn't easy to buy it. She didn't know how he got it.
She said faintly, "No, I don't like coffee anymore."
Although Lu Zhi was a little disappointed, he still asked, "Then what do you like to drink?"
Li Xiao smiled faintly and said, "Tea made from the sun fruit of Yunmiao Mountain."
When she was on the mountain, she liked to pick the sun fruit from the peak and dry it to make tea. In the afternoon, she would drink fruit tea and read scriptures. This was her greatest enjoyment.
Lu Zhi had never heard of Yunmiao Mountain, let alone the sun fruit. He thought that Li Xiao was just patronizing him, and the smile on his face faded a little. He was even more handsome than the male lead, Chen Yilin. He was the kind of pure and innocent type that young girls couldn't resist. He had a lot of fans, and this made him a little arrogant.
It was rare for him to put down his pride to pursue someone, but he was given the cold shoulder. He couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
Even so, he still said, "Then I'll go back and ask around."
Anyone could tell that Lu Zhi wanted to pursue Li Xiao. Otherwise, why would he look for that fruit just because of a casual sentence from her?
After Li Xiao finished filming today's scenes, she was removing her makeup in the dressing room. Xin Xuehui reminded her, "Lu Zhi should be pursuing you. He's famous because he has a sugar daddy behind him. That sugar daddy of his has a bad temper. "
Although she wanted to be on good terms with Li Xiao, they weren't familiar with each other, so she didn't say much.
Li Xiao frowned. Actually, when she first joined the cast, Lu Zhi didn't treat her differently from the others. He was even a little cold and evasive towards her. But today, he suddenly ran to her and tried to please her. This completely opposite behavior was obviously fishy.
Unfortunately, although Li Xiao appeared to be the beautiful eldest daughter of the Li Clan, she really didn't have any connections. She only had Ewen. She couldn't push everything to Ewen.
Her eyes suddenly lit up. Although she didn't have any connections, she had the Ghost Bloodline!
He could just ask the female ghost to investigate. As long as the female ghost did not appear in front of people, it would be safe.
With that thought in mind, Li Xiao only teased, "Could it be that he wants to find a new financial backer? At the moment, I don't have any intention of keeping anyone. "
After changing out of her costume and removing the makeup on her face, Li Xiao went straight back to her villa.
She had just walked into the villa when she heard this.
"I'll give you five million. Leave my son."
"The feelings between me and Kaesong cannot be insulted with money. Even if you give me 100 million, I won't leave him. "
Li Xiao looked up and saw that the big TV screen in the living room was on. It was broadcasting a very popular TV series recently. The sparrow spirit sat on the sofa and watched with great interest. From time to time, it would peck at a plate of pistachios to eat.
It was so engrossed in watching that it didn't even notice that Li Xiao had come back.
Li Xiao coughed, and the sparrow spirit turned its head. "Xiao Xiao, you're back! Human TV series are so good. If I had known, I would have bought a TV when I was on the mountain. "
Li Xiao said, "If you have time, why don't you practice and watch TV all day?"
The sparrow spirit said, "I'm just a sparrow."
Why did it want to practice? It was satisfied to eat, drink, and read novels every day.
It seemed to think of something. Its eyes lit up and it flew to Li Xiao's shoulder. "Xiao Xiao, can you lend me 10,000 yuan?"
Li Xiao wondered, "What do you want money for?"
The sparrow spirit said, "I want to buy a computer!" There was only one laptop in the villa for Li Xiao's personal use. The sparrow spirit didn't dare to touch it for fear that it would be cooked by Li Xiao. It wanted a computer of its own.
Li Xiao thought for a moment. "You want to buy a computer to read novels?" After all, this was the sparrow spirit's only pursuit.
The sparrow spirit straightened its chest. "I want to write novels! I saw the news today. Writing novels can make a lot of money! If it's made into a TV series, it can make millions! "
Millions of yuan. The number of novels it could buy could fill the whole house. As long as the sparrow spirit thought of having several rooms full of novels to read in the future, it suddenly felt happy.
Li Xiao was speechless. Did this sparrow spirit really think that it could sell the copyright of a novel? However, it had nothing to do at home all day long. It was good to find something for it to do.
She chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to buy you one in two days." She also wanted to see what kind of novel the sparrow spirit could write.
With her approval, the sparrow spirit happily flew up and circled the hall several times. It ate a lot, so its body was round. Every time Li Xiao saw it fly, she was worried that its wings couldn't support it.
It was just buying a computer. It was not a big deal. She casually chose a computer with good performance on the Internet and waited for it to be delivered to her door.
After the order was placed, she directly summoned a female ghost. This female ghost was called Zhang Yan. She died at the age of 25 because of cancer. When her parents were still alive, they would burn some paper money for her. After her parents died, she lost the incense offerings.
After Li Xiao brought her ashes back, she also asked if she wanted to send her to reincarnation. Zhang Yan directly refused.
Although Zhang Yan said that she didn't do it voluntarily, she was controlled by Lin Shanyu and did some wrong things. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to reincarnate well in her next life. Rather than suffering in reincarnation, it was better to be a ghost.
Li Xiao decided to let her stay. Occasionally, she would provide some incense offerings so that her soul would not dissipate because of the loss of incense.
She asked Zhang Yan to stay by Lu Zhi's side and report to her if there were any clues.
Zhang Yan agreed, and her figure quickly disappeared.
Li Xiao, on the other hand, continued to maintain her life and film her shows. Ewen also asked her if she needed an assistant. Li Xiao did not intend to enter the entertainment industry. She felt that she wasn't cut out for it. After filming "Great Shaolin", she was prepared to say goodbye to the entertainment industry. Moreover, she had many secrets, so she directly rejected the so-called assistant.
After a period of time, the filming of "Great Shaolin" progressed to the stage where the male lead was undercover in the Demon Sect for a period of time and found out that it wasn't the Demon Sect that harmed his family.
He wanted to expose it, but he was smeared with dirty water. He was accused of having an affair with the Demon Sect's leader, Xie Ying. He was stripped of his martial arts and expelled from Shaolin. The Demon Sect's leader, Xie Ying, took him in and asked if he was willing to be the leader.
Xie Ying was already tired of the trifling matters of the Demon Sect. She only wanted to study her martial arts so that she could break through the void sooner. It was also this focus that allowed her martial arts to improve rapidly. She didn't have any romantic feelings for the male lead. She only saw him as a confidant that she could discuss martial arts with.
However, this special treatment aroused the dissatisfaction of the other elders in the Demon Sect. They were prepared to collude with the righteous and suppress Xie Ying in the name of Xie Ying's treacherous act of killing her own father.
Xie Ying's role wasn't considered much to begin with. After filming a few more scenes, she would be able to retire. She couldn't help but look forward to it.
During this process, Lu Zhi pursued Li Xiao passionately. He asked her all sorts of questions about her well-being. Even when Li Xiao rejected him time and time again, he didn't change his mind. Instead, he became more courageous.
Li Xiao was annoyed. She felt that perhaps she had been too good-tempered recently, causing this person to take advantage of her.
When Lu Zhi invited Li Xiao out for a meal again, Li Xiao put down the script in her hands. She looked aloof and indifferent. "I don't like to share a man with other women."
Lu Zhi's face flushed red when he heard this. His lips moved and his eyes flashed with resentment. However, he didn't say anything in the end. He took the flowers and left.
Not long after, Li Xiao heard that he had applied for leave from the director for a day.
If she had known that this sentence could knock him out so easily, she would have said it earlier.
Li Xiao knew that there were all sorts of people in this circle. Some people would choose to take a shortcut and choose a sugar daddy. This was someone else's choice. She couldn't be bothered to stand on the moral high ground and criticize others. However, Lu Zhi was being taken care of by a sugar daddy. On the other hand, he was pursuing her. He looked as if he was infatuated with her and completely ignored Li Xiao's impatience. She had a lot of opinions about this.
****
Lu Zhi's mind kept replaying Li Xiao's cold and disdainful gaze when she said that sentence. That gaze burned him until he lost all rationality. He just wanted to tear her mouth apart.
She was a high and mighty missy. Of course, she wouldn't understand the hard work that small fry like him had to put in to climb up the ladder.
She! How dare she say such words to humiliate him! Did she really think that he liked her? If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to break away from the control of that big boss, how could he go against his will and pursue a missy that he didn't like?
His hands clenched into fists. Sitting in the car, his chest heaved up and down.
After some time, he calmed down and said to the driver, "Go to Zijin Apartments."
Zijin Apartments was the most luxurious district in S City. Every inch of land was worth its weight in gold. Although Lu Zhi had made a lot of money these few years, he couldn't bear to buy a house here. He came here to look for someone.
Half an hour later, Lu Zhi saw Ren Pintang. Although Ren Pintang was already in his forties, the years had treated him very well. His handsome face didn't lose any of its beauty. Compared to when he was young, there was a hint of elegance, just like aging wine.
In front of him, Lu Zhi couldn't help but be cautious.
Ren Pintang leisurely brewed tea. His eyes were cold. "It seems that you have failed."
Lu Zhi couldn't help but complain, "Her temper isn't very good. Instead, she insulted me. She really doesn't like me, no matter how much I pursue her. "
Whenever he thought of what she said, he would still be furious. The veins on his forehead were popping out. When he first debuted, he was young and impetuous. He thought that he could do whatever he wanted in the industry just because he had good looks. Therefore, he offended someone and was directly ignored. After suffering, he accepted the olive branch extended by a female big shot. By serving her well, he got a few good resources and slowly gained a foothold in the entertainment industry.
However, compared to the various beauties in the entertainment industry, that big boss's looks were really ordinary. This made him more and more unable to bear it and wanted to end this relationship. Therefore, when Ren Pintang expressed his willingness to help him, the premise was that he had successfully wooed Li Xiao, he agreed without hesitation.
She was just a young girl who had just come of age. How hard could it be to win her over? Not to mention, Li Xiao was indeed good-looking. She was beautiful and proud, like a thorny rose. Conquering such a young lady would be a great accomplishment.
Ren Pintang looked at the indignant Lu Zhi and frowned slightly.
He knew that Lu Zhi had a sugar daddy behind him. That sugar daddy's temper wasn't very good and he was a bit unscrupulous in his actions. Originally, he thought that if Lu Zhi successfully wooed Li Xiao, Li Xiao would be the sugar daddy behind Lu Zhi. At that time, even if he wanted to deal with Li Xiao, he could smoothly shift the blame to others and not implicate himself and Jiayin. Even if it didn't work, he could let Lu Zhi coax Li Xiao to bed and take some photos to control him.
In the end, he didn't expect that this Lu Zhi, who could even coax a big boss to some extent, would be so useless. Instead, he provoked Li Xiao's disgust.
He casually said that he would arrange a good resource for Lu Zhi, but in his heart, he was thinking of another way.
