Tang Li, not to be outdone, met Huo Chenyu's gaze and said teasingly:

"Two months have passed, is Young Master Huo still so possessive of the women he's been with?"

You are very strong.

But I'm not weak either.

It feels good to have this sense of evenly matched strength.

In the past, Tang Li only wanted to please Huo Chenyu, which made her live a cautious and unsatisfying life.

Huo Chenyu was stunned and didn't react for a long time.

Tang Li, however, raised her hand to remove his mechanically operated hand, took a step back, and sighed:

"Young Master Huo now has two choices: either use the Huo family's power to terminate the contract for her, or King You of Zhou lit the beacon fires to amuse the feudal lords, disregarding his kingdom for Bao Si. The few stinking coins for breach of contract are nothing to Young Master Huo, he should be willing to part with them."

Turning the tables and taking control.

Tang Li put on a big smile and looked at Huo Chenyu:

"Either go back and tell your fiancée that since you're here, you might as well make the best of it. The second female lead in my novel also has a lot of screen time, which will put actresses to the test. Most importantly, the female lead and her official partner have too many kissing scenes. With your strong possessiveness, Mr. Huo, you definitely won't be able to stand it. On the other hand, the second female lead will never have any physical contact with the female lead's official partner, even if she loves him but can't have him. Mr. Huo, you can rest assured."

but...

Tang Li stepped forward and took the initiative to approach Huo Chenyu:

"However, the second female lead is recklessly going to the battlefield and will be captured by the enemy. Then, the enemy soldiers will scramble to hand in their homework to her. Since the second female lead is played by Huo Shao's fiancée, I can change this scene. Otherwise, I'm afraid you, Huo Shao, will be jealous."

That's such a thoughtful gesture!

Huo Chenyu clenched his fists, trying his best to calm himself down, and asked softly:

"What will it take for you to stop?"

Tang Li flatly refused:

"I'm just a writer trying to make a living. I can't be a capitalist. This hand isn't mine, and I can't take it back."

She wasn't lying; it really couldn't be taken back.

Because she had no idea who was using her name to sabotage Lin Yiyun.

If it's the Beijing-Kowloon Railway, then she really did a great job.

If it were someone else, the enemy of my enemy would naturally be her friend.

With negotiations failing, Huo Chenyu really didn't know what to do with Tang Li.

He could only change the subject:

"Are you leaving again now that you're back?"

Tang Li returned to his seat, picked up his chopsticks, added a piece of meat to his mouth, and answered while eating:

Whether I leave or not is none of your business, right?

Huo Chenyu also sat back down opposite her:

"I didn't expect you to rent out the villa. I only left you this one place to live. Now that you're back, where are you going to stay?"

If Tang Li hadn't been burned by the chili peppers, she would have almost thought he was concerned about her.

It seems he was just using a different method to plead for Lin Yiyun.

Tang Li put down her chopsticks and looked at Huo Chenyu:

“I’ve already said, I’m just a writer. I can’t decide whether the actors stay or leave, or even whether the film and television rights to my book can be sold. So, you really don’t need to use both soft and hard tactics to deal with me.”

Instead of explaining when she was misunderstood, Huo Chenyu told her:

“I have a villa in the south of the city. It was renovated two years ago and passed the inspection. You can move in.”

Is he unable to understand human speech?

Tang Li sneered:

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Huo, but I don't lack a place to stay. I have rented out the villa, but I am just sharing it with someone else."

Shared accommodation?

With that man?

Huo Chenyu had met that man once at the villa. The guy was dashing and handsome. If he were to share a room with Tang Li, constantly running into each other, wouldn't that be...?

Such thoughts caused Huo Chenyu's emotions, which she had finally managed to calm down, to surge again.

He was afraid he would lose control if he stayed in front of Tang Li any longer.

So he got up:

"I will send the password to the villa in the south of the city to your phone."

Tang Li was not appreciative:

"Is Young Master Huo making decisions for me? It seems I have to remind you once again that you and I have no legal relationship anymore, and you have no right to make decisions for me."

These words cut like a knife.

Huo Chenyu was furious:

"Whether you go or stay is up to you."

After saying that, he turned to leave, but Tang Li called him back:

"Wait, Young Master Huo."

Huo Chenyu looked at her, only to see Tang Li smiling radiantly as she said:

"You left something behind."
