Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: Uninvited Guest
After finishing the talk with Susan, Li Shengxiao returned to his hotel, took a bath, and stepped out of the bathroom. Casually grabbing a towel, he wiped his dripping hair while bending down to pick up his cellphone from the bed.
Sure enough, there was a text from Rong Yan.
Lately, a certain young woman had been sending him ssages consistently at the sa ti every day.
This ti was no different.
He opened the ssage.
The scent of Rong Yan engulfed him.
[Today, my sister and I took Little Baby to the amusent park; her daughter was there too. The little guy really liked our Duidui, sticking to her throughout the entire ti, much to the chagrin of Little Baby. I was worried he might get annoyed and ignore them, but Little Baby was much better behaved than I expected; he didn’t make a fuss at all.]
Li Shengxiao looked at the photo she had sent.
In the photo, an unbelievably handso little boy closely clung to by a little girl in a poofy dress. The little girl seed uneasy, occasionally glancing at the little boy beside her with wide eyes.
The little boy, however, was always facing the cara, his eyes barely hiding his impatience, but he disguised it well, maintaining a serious expression on his pretty face, standing up straight.
Just from looking at the photo, Li Shengxiao could tell that the so-called Li Duidui was well-behaved, only because Rong Yan was there and the little guy cared about her feelings did he not shake off the little girl clinging to him.
[By the way, attached is a selfie of your girlfriend for today.]
Li Shengxiao looked down at his phone at the selfie sent by the smiling young woman; her grin and the bright light on her profile face were captivating. Simply because of a photo, his mood uncontrollably improved, feeling as if she was right beside him.
When he looked up again, he faced an empty room; there was nobody inside, and for so reason, he suddenly felt an intense urge to return!
The business in Rui City was almost taken care of.
He glanced once more at the photo in his phone and was about to call Gu Ming; he wanted to return to Capital City overnight.
‘Ding dong’.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Li Shengxiao walked over and opened the door.
Outside, Chu Xi leaned against the doorway in a crimson robe, holding two glasses of red wine with a beaming smile. Seeing him co out, she raised the glass in her hand and offered one to him, “Susan said the treatnt was very successful; care for a drink?”
She raised her glass slightly, her eyes seductive, “A ’76 Fedorov, I went through quite so effort to find it.”
Li Family Villa had a wine cellar underneath, storing thousands of bottles of wine. The likes of Fedorov that Chu Xi thought hard to acquire were plentiful there.
Li Shengxiao did not let her in nor did he reach out to take the wine glass she held mid-air. He glanced at her indifferently and said, “I should thank you this ti. Li Group will invest in an international film project; I will have them reserve the female lead role for you.”
Is this her way of returning a favor? This man is truly heartless! Chu Xi bit her lip; her face still smiling, but her eyes began to show annoyance, “Do you really need to be this exact with ?”
“We don’t seem to have the kind of relationship where we can afford not to be exact,” Li Shengxiao deftly replied. “I don’t like owing favors. If you don’t want that movie resource, Li Group has entertainnt companies under it. You can choose any project you wish as a thank you for this ti. Think it over and talk to Gu Ming; he will arrange it.”
