While talking, her fingers also scratched Song Baiyan’s body.
Song Baiyan gently stroked the back of her head with his large hand and asked, "Filming on set every day, aren’t you tired?"
Tang Li shook her head.
Realizing the lights were off, she said, "Not really."
After a pause, she spoke again, "After all, I’m young and full of energy."
This remark almost outright implied that he was getting old and couldn’t keep up physically.
A little girl who holds grudges.
Song Baiyan had a helpless smile on his face but still gave Tang Li’s waist a squeeze, "If you understood this earlier, you wouldn’t have tied yourself to this old tree like ."
"I just want to cling," Tang Li snuggled into the man’s arms, "Not only do I want to cling tightly, but I also want to grow a little tree."
Saying this, she raised her little face—
"Have you really not considered a big health care plan? There’s a special buy-one-get-one-free offer tonight."
Song Baiyan: "..."
Even though the room was pitch black, it didn’t hide those bright, expressive eyes.
Endearing, yet indescribably tangled.
In the darkness, the man’s slow and steady voice replied, "Going through the health care twice, I’d be risking my back."
Tang Li: "..."
Indeed.
He had just been on a flight during the day.
Nine hours, for an average person, it really is quite hard to endure.
Even if the private jet had a resting room.
Hearing there was still room for negotiation, Tang Li imdiately showed her utmost sincerity, "We advocate a human-centered approach; if you can’t use it all in one night, you can spread it over two nights."
This nonsensical comnt successfully amused Song Baiyan.
Song Baiyan picked her up, "You’ve talked up a storm; let’s test your skills then."
This position, Master Tang knew it like the back of her hand.
When she climbed onto the guest, she didn’t forget to continue, "If you’re satisfied with the experience, rember to get a mbership!"
Song Baiyan: "..."
mbership expert ng Shu, after completing a back-stepping project at a certain club, tipped a two-hundred-pound technician aunt 100 yuan in gratuity, changed clothes, and went ho.
On the way, he sent a ssage to Kang Yunxi but received no reply.
The ho ng Shu returned to was not the old family mansion of the ng Family.
It was his apartnt outside.
As he entered, his cellphone rang with a foreign number.
ng Shu didn’t answer the international call.
He went to the study, opened a locked drawer in his desk, and took out an old model cellphone.
After booting it up, several unread ssages popped up.
All were from the sa number.
——[How have things been going?]
This ssage was sent four days ago.
At that ti, he was preparing to go to Jiming Island.
In the following days, the other party sent ssages daily.
The most recent one was half an hour ago.
——[I need to see Tang Shen’s granddaughter as soon as possible.]
Just as he was about to reply, a call ca through on the old model phone.
Upon answering, a hoarse middle-aged man’s voice ca through the earpiece, heavy with a Yue Country accent: "If you can’t bring her back, I’m prepared to call Ruan north."
"Are you crazy?!" Even though there was no one else in the apartnt, ng Shu still lowered his voice, "I’ve already told you, her current identity isn’t ordinary, she can’t be moved unless she agrees to co with voluntarily."
"Do you think she would be willing to go with you?"
ng Shu couldn’t make any guarantees.
The trip to Jiming Island made him see through Tang Li’s cunning.
Tang Li was unlike other girls her age in the entertainnt circle; the usual tactics didn’t work on her, perhaps because what she got from Song Baiyan was already good enough. To lure her, you need more tempting bait.
However, when it cos to power and influence, Song Baiyan is already a top-notch figure.
Who else could surpass him?
Of course, fortunes could change after ten years.
As long as they remain patient.
He thought his only conceivable bargaining chip was his handso face.
But in the end, he returned in failure.
In fact, it even got him reprimanded by Song Baiyan.
He underestimated Tang Li, this twenty-year-old girl.
He thought, a wild girl from a poor background wouldn’t have much life experience, and having entered the entertainnt circle early, she would be easier to handle than those sheltered flowers, never expecting her to be a tough nut.
Rongxun Technology being troubled was a little lesson from Song Baiyan.
Song Baiyan didn’t achieve his current status by ditating and chanting scriptures.
He probably already has his eyes on him now.
If he does anything out in the open again, the consequence could be getting limbs severed.
"Give a little more ti."
ng Shu held the old model phone, responding to the other party: "I’ll find a way to take her to the Golden Triangle."
After a long pause, the other side spoke again, compromising: "You don’t have much ti, while I can wait, Kun can’t, Tang Shen swallowed ten billion worth of goods from him back then. If that money wasn’t taken by the Li family, then it must still be in Tang Shen’s descendants’ hands."
"Since you’re after the money, why bother taking the person too?"
This is the part ng Shu couldn’t understand.
If it were him, he’d focus exclusively on tracking the ten billion’s whereabouts.
ssing with soone you shouldn’t touch will only bring endless trouble.
"What do you understand?" ng Shu’s questioning was rebutted by the other side: "Based on the information Kun and I possess, she’s certainly not a simple character. To have beco First Lady at such a young age already proves her extraordinary nature. It’s said she’s doing well in your country’s entertainnt industry, and an Oscar is just a matter of ti."
ng Shu: "..."
Realizing he’d spoken too sharply, the other party softened his tone, "With our understanding of girls from your country, she surely has multiple identities hidden. A female star is just a convenient cover for her to move around publicly. Her real identity is likely an international hacker, a master of traditional Chinese dicine, a genius aerospace engineer, and perhaps even a future Nobel Laureate in Biology."
ng Shu: "..."
Knowing the other party wouldn’t heed advice, ng Shu still added, "Aren’t you perhaps misunderstanding her?"
Predictably, he was interrupted.
"She clearly seems like a highly intelligent girl," the other party continued, "Kun and I won’t be wrong. When she arrives at Kachin State, we’ll naturally treat her as an honored guest."
ng Shu already guessed that they probably wanted to capture Tang Li to develop so new kind of white powder.
The question is, could Tang Li even do that?
In his opinion, Tang Li doesn’t know a damn thing.
Before he could speak, the other party on the call said, "Ah Shu, you’re my only child, don’t disappoint ."
The next day, Tang Li unexpectedly woke up early.
Not knowing what to do, she decided to help make breakfast in the kitchen.
As a result, when Aunt Min saw her, she shooed her back to the dining room with a ladle.
Tang Li wandered over to the dining table and found Song Baiyan reading a newspaper. Rembering the antics from the previous night, her ears inevitably turned red. Just as she was about to sneak off, soone tugged on the straps of her overalls.
Reluctantly, she turned back around.
Song Baiyan pulled out the chair next to him: "Sit and read the newspaper with for a while."
Since they were to read the newspaper, Tang Li sat down and imdiately asked for one.
Song Baiyan pulled out a page from the newspaper he was holding, and Tang Li took it, noticing it was the economic section of the Capital Morning News.
Then, she saw the divorce statent published by Ouyang Qian.
——
Kun and others: We’re about to welco a young genius with an IQ of 280!
Tang Xiaoli: Is my identity as a massage girl going to be exposed?
Good night!
