Was it really that simple?
Ling Xiaosu could not believe what he was seeing. Was it true that he didn't need any conditions to get him to invest in him? How could a heaven defying official trust her so much?
"But, I, a heaven defying official, have never done business with a loss." As he finished, he looked at Ling Xiaosu with an unreadable smile and squinted his eyes.
Ling Xiaosu's heart skipped a beat. She knew that something bad was going to happen, but why was she so nervous?
Ling Xiaosu looked into the eyes of the heaven defying official. "I only invest in people of value, because I'm a businessman," he said.
In the end, there were still conditions. Ling Xiaosu broke out in a cold sweat and asked calmly, "So, what are your conditions for investing in me?"
"I don't need you to treat me to a meal, nor do I need you to pay me with any earth-shattering rewards. I only need …"
Looking at Ling Xiaosu who was gulping down her saliva, the smile on her face became wider, but she kept her mouth shut and did not say anything else.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Ling Xiaosu's hands were clenched tightly in her lap. To tell the truth, she would rather die from anxiety than to say anything!
Ling Xiaosu was so nervous that she was at a loss of what to do. After waiting for a while, she smiled but did not say anything. Ling Xiaosu swallowed her saliva. Since she was not going to speak, then she would speak.
"You, you're right. I really can't afford to hire you in a high class restaurant, and you don't need me to do anything that would shake the world. Then I, I …" He didn't know why, but he felt a little nervous as he shook hands with Ling Xiao, who was drenched in cold sweat.
"Then I … I'll …" I'll just thank you for cooking. " The more he spoke, the smaller the words became. Ling Xiaosu remembered that the last time he went to the heaven defying official's house to cook, the heaven defying official seemed to like it. That should work …
Actually, Ling Xiaosu wasn't too sure either. If she didn't go over to look at that heaven defying official's expression, why would it seem a little strange?
Hearing Ling Xiaosu's words, the disobedient official smiled even wider than before and said, "Since my family's servants have to take leave of absence for a month, you can treat it as a repayment for cooking in my family for a month.
The heaven defying official would never forget the warmth that Ling Xiaosu had brought him last time. He wanted to experience it again.
"One month!" Ling Xiaosu exclaimed. This had been going on for too long!
If they were to stay in a heaven-defying realm for one month, wouldn't that mean that they were living together in an indirect manner? Thinking of this, Ling Xiaosu blushed.
"Why? Are you unwilling?" The heaven defying official raised an eyebrow at Ling Xiaosu. Ling Xiaosu's reaction had been a little too much just now.
"It's not that I don't want to." Ling Xiaosu waved her hand as she denied it, "I just think that a month is too long and I can't stay in your house to help you cook." This way, his mother would find out. At that time, he would have to ask again.
"Actually, before this, you should have lived with me as my fiancée. Now, there is only a precondition, and I don't think there's any problems." To be honest, he was still suggesting Ling Xiaosu and Chu Xiaoran's conversation in his heart.
Was this woman clearly refusing him? Tsk, how could this be possible!
Before Ling Xiaosu could say anything, the Clairvoyant continued, "The rooms and daily necessities have all been prepared for you. You just need to stay here."
"I …" Ling Xiaosu was just about to retort, but with a slight glance from the heaven's defying official, Ling Xiaosu tactfully shut his mouth.
"And I don't like it when people reject me."
Ling Xiaosu looked at the overbearing manner of the overbearing official and cursed in his heart: "How could the overbearing official not respect her at all? He decided just like that. Although he has the feeling of being the overbearing CEO, she doesn't like being too overbearing!"
In a situation where there wasn't even any dispute and he didn't even have the power to oppose her, Ling Xiaosu was able to live in a heaven defying house.
However, in order to prevent Mother Ling from finding out that Ling Xiaosu had not been home for a month, Ling Xiaosu and the Heaven defying official firmly took back the decision to negotiate. They made it a rule that they must return every night, and no later than midnight.
The heaven defying official thought for a moment. It should be fine to go back to his mother-in-law's home, so he agreed to Ling Xiaosu's decision.
As for the matter of the heaven defying official investing in him again, he said that when she had chosen what kind of play she would film again, he would invest a huge amount of money in himself. In the common saying of the merchants, it was possible that he might see some value in her.
To Ling Xiaosu, this was a good thing.
The promise that Ouyang Ke would become the assistant director of his new movie was on the agenda.
Ling Xiaosu didn't intend to continue filming the new script. She wanted to learn how a real director was like.
However, before this schedule could be implemented, Ling Xiaosu received a call from Li Xiao's first manager.
Li Xiaoyi's manager said anxiously, "Oh no, Director Ling, Xiaoyi committed suicide at home!"
Ling Xiaosu was shocked as he quickly stood up and ran out of the house. It was now 9 o'clock at night.
"What's going on? Xiaoyi committed suicide at home? " Ling Xiaosu asked as he ran. It was Li Xiaoyi's manager on the phone.
He was fine, how could he commit suicide?
"I don't know either. I was planning to send a new script to Xiaoyi tonight to let her interview for a new TV show. Who knew that Xiaoyi would commit suicide when I opened the door to find him at home taking sleeping pills!" Li Xiaoyi's manager spoke very quickly on the phone, but he stuttered at the end.
The wind was a little cold on a summer night. Ling Xiaosu, wearing short-sleeved clothes, called a taxi and told the driver to go to the hospital mentioned by Li Xiaoyi's agent.
"What happened to Xiaoyi now?" Ling Xiaosu panted as he spoke.
Li Xiaoyi's agent replied, "I don't know. When I sent Morning Glory Chime to the hospital, the doctor pushed him into the emergency room. He still hasn't come out yet, so what should I do!?"
Ling Xiaosu rubbed her throbbing temples and comforted the agent, "I'm on my way to the hospital right now. Don't worry, just wait outside the emergency room."
"Alright, alright, alright. Hurry up." Li Xiaoyi's agent hastily replied with a few "OK" words. His voice clearly carried a sobbing tone.
After hanging up, he realized how scared he was. If Li Xiaoyi just disappeared like that, what should he do?
When Ling Xiaosu rushed to the emergency room, Li Xiaoyi's agent was still crying and waiting by the door.
Ling Xiaosu ran over, out of breath, and asked, "How is it? Is Dawn out yet? "
When Li Xiaoyi's manager saw Ling Xiaosu come over, he sobbed, "I've been waiting outside for a long time, but the doctor has yet to give me a push. Do you think something's really wrong?"
