Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“You… why are you laughing!” Liu Qi was suddenly angry and flustered, and her small face flushed red.
She had never seen Shen Nanxiao smile before. That clear and shallow smile shone down like the winter sun, but it was like a flash in the pan and disappeared in an instant.
It turned out that a cold and indifferent person like Shen Nanxiao was also good-looking when he smiled, but his smile almost answered her question.
Once she thought of Shen Nanxiao changing her clothes… Liu Qi immediately wanted to freeze on the spot.
“Eat first. I’ll tell you when you’re full.” Shen Nanxiao’s tone was very indifferent, and he played it down without any emotion.
What could she do? She could only bury her head in the rice!
Shen Nanxiao’s deep gaze became gentle. He picked up the food for the little girl as if nothing had happened, but the little girl’s earlobes were stained red, and her face still carried a hint of delicate anger.
She looked really… delicious.
After spending a long time eating, Liu Qi no longer wanted to get up from her seat. She lowered her head and played with the last bit of broccoli residue with her chopsticks.
“Are you full?” Shen Nanxiao asked, but it was actually a reminder.
“Oh, I’m done.” Liu Qi had no choice but to put down her chopsticks. Her actions seemed a little silly.
She looked up at Shen Nanxiao with some anticipation, hoping that he could tell her that it was not him.
However, when she returned to the hotel, Shen Nanxiao still did not tell her the answer. She was too embarrassed to ask again, causing her to be completely stunned.
She simply went back to the master bedroom. Liu Qi lay on the bed and scrolled through her phone. She did not tell Liu Yue that she had come to North City. She wanted to secretly visit Liu Yue and give her a surprise.
Macau, Huamei International, Weiss Entertainment City.
Under the soft blue light, a noble young master sat in the main seat of a private room.
Beside him was a beautiful woman with long legs. She was charming and flirtatious.
There was a big table in the middle. Four men were sitting around each other with their women in their arms.
“Brother Shu, your luck is not good today. hehehe.” A Big Baldy with a cigarette in his mouth laughed wretchedly. He grabbed the money on the table and the big golden chain around his neck was very eye-catching.
Nangong Shu frowned. The Big Baldy’s laughter made him very dissatisfied and even made him angry.
He was just a nouveau riche, what right did he have to call him brother!
“Big Baldy, you’ve lived enough, right? Who gave you the face to call Brother Shu Brother?” Nangong Shu’s brother, Wu Dong, who came with him, was furious. He looked fierce, and even his tone was filled with killing intent.
The Big Baldy’s laughter suddenly stopped, and his body suddenly stiffened. He laughed dryly twice, and then lowered his head to look at Nangong Shu; he said carelessly, “Hey Brother Shu, I’m just a careless person, and I’ve drank too much today. Please be forgiving and don’t blame me.”
“It’s okay, we’re all friends.” Although Nangong Shu said this, the viciousness on his face was obvious.
The Big Baldy immediately felt that something was wrong. His two bell-sized eyes rolled around; he quickly laughed and said, “The money I won was all to give to Brother Shu. If Brother Shu hadn’t led us, we wouldn’t have gotten to where we are today.”
“Later, let’s go have a drink with Blue Night Charm.” Nangong Shu’s tone was neither salty nor indifferent, but his eyes indicated that the flirtatious girl leaning on his body should take the money.
“Okay, okay. Thank you, Brother Shu.” Big Baldy wiped off his sweat. This group of rich and powerful people were the most difficult to please.
Then, Nangong Shu’s phone rang. When he picked up the phone, the others all avoided it and walked far away.
Qi Qi said, “Vice President, Liu Qi asked you to meet her at Wanhe Park tomorrow. She didn’t say what time. I asked Liu Qi, but she didn’t answer. She must have fallen asleep.”
“Okay, got it.” Nangong Shu hung up the phone. He really looked down on Liu Qi’s respectful attitude towards him; it was like a dog that wagged its tail whenever it saw someone.
But when he thought of that high and mighty man, Shen Nanxiao, the woman that Shen Nanxiao liked but could not get, she was very attentive in front of him.
A sense of accomplishment pleased both Nangong Shu’s body and mind.
…
Midnight.
Liu Qi was still lying on the bed, looking at her phone. She did not feel sleepy at all, but her temples were inexplicably hurting, and her head was a little dizzy.
Her mouth was dry, and she wanted to go out and get some water to drink. When she walked to the open kitchen, she saw a refrigerator, but Shen Nanxiao was still sitting at the bay window working.
There was mineral water in the refrigerator. Liu Qi finished a bottle in one go and then walked toward Shen Nanxiao.
“Not sleeping yet?” Shen Nanxiao raised his head and glanced at her. Then, he turned his gaze to the computer screen.
“I can’t sleep.” Liu Qi’s voice was a little lazy. She took the opportunity to sit next to Shen Nanxiao.
After a long while, Liu Qi suddenly poked Shen Nanxiao’s arm with her fingertips.
“Hmm?” Shen Nanxiao’s gaze stopped on the little girl’s fair face.
Liu Qi opened her mouth but did not say anything. She lowered her head and crawled under the man’s arm, and adjusted her position sitting on the carpet, lying in the man’s arms.
The warmth and fragrance of the lotus flowers made Liu Qi feel comfortable.
Shen Nanxiao did not say anything. He stroked the little girl’s head lovingly, indicating for her to be more obedient.
On the computer screen was a proposal that Liu Qi did not quite understand. Then, the Wechat message at the bottom right corner flashed.
When he opened it, it was Wu Feng who sent him the schedule for the next day.
There was also the Director of The Ballad of the South Wind, as well as the list of investors, and main actors.
Roland took up a large part of the investment this time. The two important actresses were both from Roland Group.
Wu Feng: “President, the director has asked about Roland’s payment. Although there is still a two-day deadline, should we hurry Roland?”
This piece of news was just enough for Liu Qi to see clearly. Roland did not make a payment? Did it mean that Roland’s investment in The Ballad of the South Wind had not been stabilized yet?
As far as she knew, The Ballad of the South Wind TV series would bring Roland a huge amount of income.
This payment was originally supposed to be sent to the production team on the second day of the contract signing. Now that it had been delayed, there had to be a big problem.
She remembered that Roland had handed over the investment to Nangong Shu and had not given it to him yet. Perhaps Nangong Shu had secretly embezzled public funds. Nangong Shu had always loved to gamble and was a spendthrift.
In her previous life, Nangong Shu had lived a carefree life with her as his money bag.
If Roland did not transfer the money, they would naturally break the contract. Not only would Lu Xue be kicked out, Roland would also have to pay a huge penalty. Would that not make things worse?
“Shen Nanxiao, can you ask Roland not to make the payment and directly break the contract?” Liu Qi turned around and looked up at the man. Her attitude was very serious, and it did not seem like she was joking.
Shen Nanxiao frowned slightly and did not answer. Instead, he asked, “Do you know the consequences of doing this?”
There was a probing look in his eyes. What exactly was this little girl trying to do?
“The amount of investments will be smaller, but the penalty will also cover a part of it.” Liu Qi analyzed it seriously. She knew that Shen Nanxiao had the ability to inform the accounting side.
“It is known that Roland lost a lot of money in the first half of the year. This investment is very important to Roland.” There was no emotion in Shen Nanxiao’s voice, so Liu Qi could not tell what he was thinking.
Liu Qi did not know how to persuade the man. If she said that in her previous life… No, Shen Nanxiao would not believe it.
She would not give up until she was done. Shen Nanxiao loved her, so she did not know if it would work..
“I don’t care. Shen Nanxiao, help me! I know you can do it!” Liu Qi rubbed her face against the man’s chest and rolled back and forth.
This gentle tone made Shen Nanxiao agree more than half of the time, but Shen Nanxiao was still rational. He steadied the little girl’s head and let her look up at him.
He asked, “Give me a reason.”
Reason… Liu Qi was stunned for a moment. Then, she turned her head away arrogantly and said arrogantly, “I’m unreasonable. In short, Roland can’t successfully invest, and Lu Xue can’t be the main character.”
“Okay, there are still two days before we shoot. If there’s a problem, little girl, you’re going to be responsible.” Shen Nanxiao’s tone was full of ridicule as he directly carried the little girl in his arms.
After Liu Qi heard that she had to take responsibility, she asked indifferently, “What’s the problem? Can’t you find a suitable actor?”
The man just looked at her and did not say anything. He was practically noncommittal.
“Lu Xue is about the same height as me, and I’m even prettier than her. If you can’t find a suitable one, I can do it myself.” Liu Qi was originally just joking.
She knew that Shen Nanxiao also had an artist under him. In her previous life, when she married Nangong Shu for the third year, Ye Li, an artist under Shen Nanxiao, had made a remake of The Ballad of the South Wind.
However, Ye Li’s version far surpassed Lu Xue’s and received unanimous praise. This was something that Liu Qi had already considered.
