"By the way, Dad, I have to join the cast the day after tomorrow. My credit card is out of money, and I have to treat the cast and crew to a meal … "Li Xiao desperately hinted at Lê Nam Giệu to help her pay off her credit card so that she could continue to use it.
Lê Nam Giệu was silent for a moment, then said, "I'll ask my assistant to take care of this."
Li Xiao's tone was cheerful, "I also have my eyes on a villa ~"
She continued to hint at Lê Nam Giệu.
Chan Ka-yin felt that this couldn't go on. Although the Li Clan was rich, they couldn't afford to spend money like Li Xiao.
She asked gently, "Is it because you're not comfortable living at home? Xiao Xiao, it's better to live at home. At least there's 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 when you were filming? "
Chan Ka-yin was about to say something, but Li Xiao showed an impatient look, "When Li Qianxing was studying abroad, he also bought a house for convenience."
She then showed a sad expression, "If Mom was still here, I wouldn't be stopped from buying a house. There's a difference between a biological mother and a stepmother. I thought I could treat Auntie as my own biological mother. "
Zhan Jiayin felt the familiar feeling of being wronged once again. With Li Xiao's personality, she would definitely buy a big villa with an expensive price, so it was normal for her to ask. She only asked, but why did Li Xiao act like she was bullying her?
When he heard his daughter mention Xu Manqin, Lê Nam Giệu's expression changed slightly, and it was quite complicated. Although he still hated Xu Manqin's viciousness, he didn't regret what he did to the Xu family. However, Xu Manqin had indeed given him some help at the beginning of the marriage. This was something that could not be erased.
Before he knew about the existence of Chihō Kai-shek and Chien Fei, Li Xiao was his only daughter and the Li Clan's most cherished daughter.
"It's just buying a house. It's not a big deal."
Besides, a house was also a type of asset. Buying a house for Xiao Xiao was better than buying random things.
After asking Li Xiao how much money she needed, he took out another card and gave it to Li Xiao.
Li Xiao originally wanted to use the termination of the contract to get more money from Lê Nam Giệu. However, even a rich man like Lê Nam Giệu wouldn't be able to stand such an obvious scam. He would probably get angry, so it was better to wait a little longer.
With this money and a big house, even if the original owner came back and had a falling out with Lê Nam Giệu, she wouldn't have to worry about not having enough money for the rest of her life.
In order to avoid any more problems, she prepared to buy the villa tomorrow. She also packed up all the jewelry and branded items in the room and prepared to bring them to the villa.
Although she didn't understand the jewelry market, looking at the shiny jewelry, she was afraid that it would add up to a few hundred million.
The next day, she couldn't wait to go find the Heavenly Queen, Zhang Hanbi with Ewen.
Zhang Hanbi offered a price of eighty-five million yuan, which was a fair price. After all, the decoration of her villa was really good. In addition, the location was quite good, so it would 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 had red wavy curls and looked very charming. She was also a straightforward person and accompanied Li Xiao to go through the transfer procedures. Li Xiao liked this kind of straightforward person. In addition, Zhang Hanbi was also Ewen's friend, so she didn't mind doing her a favor.
"Your forehead is full and your nose is like a hanging gall bladder. I can see that you have a rich appearance." She first praised Zhang Hanbi's appearance and then changed the topic, "But I see that there are horizontal red marks on your Sikong and Zhongzheng areas, and there are red dots under your eyes. I'm afraid that you'll lose a lot of money in the next week. It should be because of the falling out between husband and wife."
Ewen was listening with a smile, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but glare at Li Xiao, "Don't think that you're an expert just because you read a few books on the internet. What red marks? Why can't I see them? Besides, Hanbi isn't married yet. How could there be a falling out between husband and wife? "
Li Xiao was very confident in her own appearance. Of course, normal people couldn't see these things. If they could, then they weren't normal people. Just like Lê Nam Giệu and Chan Ka-yin, based on their appearance, they would be rich for a period of time in the future.
On the other side, Zhang Hanbi was stunned. Everyone in the industry thought that she was single until now. Other than her few close friends, no one knew that she was actually married. She was married to Xu Renda, who was popular in the industry and had many girlfriends and fans. This time, it was because Xu Renda and his company were unhappy and wanted to terminate the contract. However, when Xu Renda signed the contract, he set a high penalty for breaking the contract. In order to pay for him, she was prepared to sell the villa.
If Li Xiao had simply said that she would lose money soon, Zhang Hanbi might not have taken it to heart. However, Li Xiao had pointed out the truth of her hidden marriage …
Ewen looked at Zhang Hanbi's expression and more or less guessed it. The corner of his mouth twitched, "Wait, you're really married?"
Zhang Hanbi came back to her senses and regained her calm expression. She picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
This posture was obviously a tacit admission.
Li Xiao's reminder could be considered a favor. She didn't say anything else and just focused on eating. Needless to say, the desserts in this restaurant were really good. They weren't worse than the dessert chef specially hired by the Li Clan.
She ate happily, but the other two people at the table tasted like chewing wax. Obviously, they weren't in the mood to enjoy the food. Therefore, Li Xiao took advantage of the rest and basically went into her stomach.
After the meal, Ewen sent Li Xiao home first. In the car, she couldn't help but ask again, "Xiao Xiao, do you know a master? Did the 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 saw your face. Recently, rotten peach blossoms have come knocking on your door. You have to be careful."
She opened the door and got out of the car.
Ewen looked at her back and frowned slightly. After a while, she muttered, "Really?"
Although she still didn't believe it, she clearly remembered Li Xiao's words in her heart.

"Stop, let's reshoot this scene again!" the director said.
Chan Ka-yin, who had another bad take, 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."
She had already made more than ten bad takes for this scene. But when she thought about what had happened at the Li Clan last night, Chan Ka-yin found it difficult to concentrate on the scene.
After making so many bad takes, it was impossible for the director to say that he didn't have any complaints. Chan Ka-yin's performance today was really unworthy of her title as the best actress. But Chan Ka-yin put down her pride and apologized sincerely. Plus, she was still Mrs. Li, so the director could only endure it and comfort her. "Everyone has a bad day. Why don't you go and rest first?"
He'd better shoot other people's scenes first. He couldn't keep delaying it because of Chan Ka-yin.
Chan Ka-yin nodded. As soon as she came down, her assistant served the iced watermelon that had been cut. The watermelon was cut into pieces and exuded a cool feeling. Just looking at it made people feel better.
Chan Ka-yin said to her assistant, "You go and rest too." She paused for a moment and added, "Go buy some barbecue, beer, and drinks tonight. Treat everyone to supper. Buy more and don't forget the staff. They're also working very hard."
She was always good at dealing with people and immediately thought of a way to apologize.
Ren Pintang, who was walking towards Chan Ka-yin, happened to hear this and a gentle expression appeared on his face. Jiayin was kind. Even if they were ordinary staff, she never looked down on them and treated them equally. Even though she had been in this industry for so long, her kind nature had never changed. It was just like when they first met. He had been too busy last year and had originally planned to take a year off this year. But after knowing that Jiayin had taken on this film, he couldn't help but audition for the male lead. If he couldn't be with her in real life, then it would be good to satisfy his wish in the film.
Chan Ka-yin heard footsteps and turned her head. Her tone was a little more cheerful. "Remember not to add coriander and spring onions in one of the servings. Our great actor doesn't like them."
Ren Pintang coughed. "You still remember my taste."
Chan Ka-yin smiled sweetly. "We're friends."
The tenderness on Ren Pintang's face was almost tangible. His deep gaze made Chan Ka-yin's ears a little hot. She quickly changed the topic. "Is my makeup smudged?"
Ren Pintang lowered his eyes and sat down beside her. "No, it's just that you've been a little haggard recently. Is there anything bothering you these past few days? "
Chan Ka-yin wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she shook her head. "No, there's nothing at all. It's just that the weather is hot, so I'm in a bad mood. "
In Ren Pintang's eyes, her attitude was clearly trying to hide something.
Ren Pintang's face darkened. "Is someone bullying you because you have a good temper?"
Chan Ka-yin forced a smile. "Who can bully me now? Don't think too much."
Ren Pintang didn't believe her words. Jiayin was always like this. Even if she was bullied, she would never complain. She would bear it silently. No matter how much he asked, she probably wouldn't say anything.
Knowing that he couldn't get a clear answer from Chan Ka-yin, he simply found an opportunity to ask Chan Ka-yin's assistant.
"Who has been giving Jiayin a hard time recently?"
Although Lê Nam Giệu was his rival in love and they hated each other, Ren Pintang also knew that Lê Nam Giệu also loved Jiayin deeply and wouldn't bully her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have simply let her go in the first place.
Assistant Xiao Gao suddenly showed an angry expression. "Who else could it be other than that big missy?"
Li Xiao.
A gorgeous and arrogant face suddenly appeared in Ren Pintang's mind. His eyes flashed with disgust. It really was her. Lê Nam Giệu's eldest daughter often targeted Jiayin, so he couldn't help but take action and teach her a little lesson.
He thought that after she suffered a loss, she would learn to be a little more obedient. He didn't expect that she would still do things her own way and run over to bully Jiayin. It seemed that the loss she suffered wasn't big enough.
Good, very good!
He didn't believe that he couldn't teach a girl a lesson.
