Chapter 1018 - Meeting Xi Ran Again

After talking for several minutes, they decided to sleep. The following morning, Xiao Tian went to Star Film company to know the progress of their filming plans.

"How is the progress of our filming plans?" Xiao Tian inquired.

Currently, he was sitting on a chair in his office.

Da Shan, who was standing in front of Xiao Tian, replied, "Sir, everything is ready except we still haven't found the right actress for the female lead role."

Da Shan and the others had been trying to find the right actress for the female lead role, but their efforts were in vain.

They could not just choose any actress because the female lead role was crucial for their movie.

"All right. You can leave now." Xiao Tian uttered,

After working for about three hours, Xiao Tian went to Crystal's apartment.

"Xiao Tian, Crystal's condition is much better now, so you better prepare yourself." Yu Shi spoke abruptly.

Currently, Xiao Tian, Crystal, and Yu Shi were sitting on the couch in the living room.

Xiao Tian and Crystal exchanged a glance with each other before sighing at the same time. They wanted to say something but decided against it.

"Oh right, Xiao Tian. We just tested Crystal's speed earlier, and the result was amazing." Yu Shi wore a happy face. "Now her speed is already in the category of the high-level master stage."

She then continued, "Soon, she will officially become a martial artist at the high-level master stage. If you don't practice martial arts diligently, she will be stronger than you later. Hehe."

Xiao Tian was pleasantly surprised. "Is that true, Crystal?"

"Yes." Crystal nodded her head. "I only need to increase my strength, and I will officially become a martial artist at the high-level master stage."

"Congratulation." Xiao Tian suddenly remembered something. "I think I can help you break through to the high-level master stage faster."

"Really?" Crystal and Yu Shi said in unison.

Xiao Tian began to tell them about the medicine that could help martial artists strengthen their bodies and increase their strength faster.

He also said Long Jingxian was currently studying this medicine. 

Yes. Xiao Tian had ordered his underlings to buy the ingredients needed to make medicine, poison, and others two days ago.

He even spent millions of Yuan on buying these ingredients. However, he did not mind it because it was an investment in his eyes. 

Yu Shi looked at her disciple and spoke, "How is it, Crystal? Xiao Tian is useful, right?"

"Yes." Crystal nodded her head again. "He is indeed useful."

Xiao Tian almost coughed blood after hearing Crystal's words.

'Crystal, don't go to the dark side!'

He shouted in his head.

After talking for about an hour, Xiao Tian traveled to Star Clothes company to work. 

'I will work now.'

Xiao Tian was filled with ambition to work.

But everything was different from what he had planned because Shi Fei suddenly entered his office when he was about to work.

One thing led to another, and they ended up having sex in his office. They had sex for an hour and a half before finally stopping.

"You are as amazing as usual, little brother." Currently, Shi Fei was putting on her clothes.

Xiao Tian, who was lying down on the couch, turned his head towards her.

'This succubus has destroyed my plan!'

He could only blame himself for failing to resist her seduction.

After putting on her clothes, Shi Fei gave Xiao Tian a peck on the lips. "I will return to my office now. Hurry up and put on your clothes, or else other people will see your naked body later."

Shi Fei returned to her office with a smile on her face. She was pleased because she could have sex with him again after more than two weeks.

After putting on his clothes, Xiao Tian worked for about thirty minutes before finally going to the coffee shop. 

------

Li Coffee Shop.

Inside a luxurious coffee shop, a gorgeous lady was standing in front of the cashier. That lady had long black hair and emerald eyes.

Yes. That lady was Xi Ran, a gorgeous actress.

"Miss, this is your coffee." The cashier gave iced coffee in a plastic cup.

Xi Ran immediately took the coffee and drank it.

'Where is my wallet?'

Xi Ran could not find her wallet in her bag.

'Did I forget to bring my wallet?'

She kept looking for her wallet in her bag, but she could not find it.

'It seems like I forgot to bring it.'

At this moment, she still had a calm face.

'I will pay with Li Pay.'

Xi Ran started checking her pockets to take out her smartphone. 

[A/N=Li Pay is like paying using a smartphone. Scan code thing.]

Her calm face instantly turned worried when she could not find her smartphone. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that she had left her smartphone in her bedroom.

'What should I do?'

She had drunk the coffee, so she could not return it.

Because Xi Ran still had not paid for the coffee, the cashier uttered, "Miss, you can pay it now."

Xi Ran did not know what to do. She forgot to bring her wallet and smartphone, so she could not pay for her coffee.

'Is there someone I know in this place?'

She skimmed her surroundings, hoping she could find someone she knew. 

'I don't know any of them.'

Xi Ran was panicked.

"Miss, can I get the money now?" the cashier asked again.

"Welcome to the Li Coffee." One of the employees welcomed Xiao Tian.

Xi Ran turned her head to look at the person who had just entered Li Coffee shop. 

'Isn't he that man?'

She was relieved when she saw Xiao Tian.

Sure, they were not friends, but they had met twice before. Because Xiao Tian was the only person she knew, she decided to ask him to pay for her coffee.

'I will ask him to pay for my coffee.'

Because she wanted to avoid embarrassment, Xi Ran waved to Xiao Tian.

"Honey, I'm here." Xi Ran pretended as if she was his lover.

Xiao Tian was startled when he saw Xi Ran. However, he behaved normally because he thought she did not talk to him.

"Wait a second. My lover will pay for my coffee later." after saying that, Xi Ran dashed towards Xiao Tian and hugged his right arm. 

Her actions much surprised him.

'What is she doing?'

He had no idea why Xi Ran suddenly hugged his right arm.

They only met twice, and they weren't even friends, so he wanted to know why Xi Ran suddenly did something like that.

"Honey, can you pay for my coffee first? I forgot to bring my wallet and smartphone." Like before, Xi Ran behaved as if they were lovers.

Of course, she knew what she was doing, but she did not care about it because it could ruin her image if the public found out she could not pay for her coffee.

Xiao Tian finally understood everything.

'Ah, I see.'

Because he wanted Xi Ran not to tell anyone about what she saw at the waterfall, Xiao Tian decided to help her. 

"All right." Xiao Tian replied.

After paying for her coffee, Xiao Tian also bought one for himself.

"Thank you." Xi Ran spoke after walking out of the Li Coffee shop.

"You are welcome." Xiao Tian replied as he smiled. "In exchange for me helping you, I hope you won't tell anyone about what had happened at the waterfall a few days ago."

"All right." Xi Ran had no intention of telling anyone about it, so she immediately agreed. "Give me your number. I will transfer the money later."

"It's fine. You don't need to return it." It was only 20 Yuan, so Xiao Tian did not care about it.

20 Yuan was a small amount if he could keep her mouth shut about what she saw at the waterfall a few days ago. 

"No. I don't like being indebted to someone." Xi Ran uttered, "Give me your phone now."

Since Xi Ran insisted on returning the money, Xiao Tian took his smartphone out of his pocket. "Here."

Xi Ran instantly took his smartphone and sent a message to her phone. "Here."

Not long after they left, Xi Ran returned the money. Xiao Tian could only shake his head and smile.

'Huft. I'm tired.'

Xiao Tian, who was sitting on a chair in his office, stretched out his hand. 

'It's already 05:00 am. It's time to go home.'

With that idea in mind, Xiao Tian rose to his feet and went home.

To his surprise, he saw something unexpected after arriving home.
