She's fairly good-looking, around 24 or 25 years old, which is still young, and her skin is also decent. However, in the entertainment industry where beauties abound, her appearance isn't particularly outstanding.
So every time she met with the counterfeiters, she would either deliberately show off her bags, jewelry, and clothes, or find ways to get the counterfeiters to spend money on her.
Fortunately, the money she made from counterfeit goods was limited. She herself was also quite vain. Apart from spending most of her time treating people to meals and occasionally buying Su He a couple of high-end lipsticks, she never spent a lot of money on her.
Li Ruan chuckled, "Alright, didn't you say you were going to treat me to dinner? Hurry up and order, I'm starving."
Su He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll order it right away. You have to eat a lot later."
I was internally cursing: All you ever think about is eating! I should have known better than to meet here. The food here is so expensive!
Oh well, she'll just consider it her way of helping others, since Li Ruan has earned her a lot of extra money.
The food was ordered quickly, and Su He casually brought up Ji Yunzhang: "You and Ji Yunzhang really broke up? Is there no possibility of getting back together?"
Li Ruan said disdainfully, "I would never want a cheating scumbag again. Besides, if you hadn't been there to speak well of him, I would never have accepted his advances."
Su He's face stiffened, then she activated her teasing and witty remarks, "Ruan Ruan, have you been blaming me all this time?"
Back then, Ji Yunzhang really did perform very well. And for a nobody like us to marry into a wealthy family like the Ji family was considered a great stroke of luck. As your friend, I've always hoped you'd find a good match, which is why I said a few extra words.”
Li Ruan watched Su He's performance quietly. Although she wasn't skilled enough, Li Ruan still had to cooperate with her. "You didn't do this on purpose, so why would I blame you?"
Besides, I don't feel at all that being with Ji Yunzhang is climbing the social ladder; it's more like he's climbing the social ladder by marrying me!
Su He almost vomited. Did others not know, but she did?
Li Ruan is just a country bumpkin. Her parents are genuine farmers, and they're said to be two really bad people. To be honest, if it weren't for her pretty face, no one with even a little bit of family background would be willing to marry her.
If she hadn't been lucky enough to get a role in Director Wong's "Youth," she might have been sold off to some remote corner of the world long ago.
"I'm glad you don't blame me! But if you ask me, with a face like yours, you're sure to have a lot of good fortune ahead of you."
Li Ruan looked at Su He with a half-smile, making Su He's scalp tingle. Fortunately, the waiter came in to serve the food, and she quickly said, "Hurry up, aren't you hungry? Eat quickly, and order more if you're not full."
Li Ruan also focused her attention on the dishes. Now was not the time to break ties with Su He. She couldn't scare her away directly, or she would be out of luck.
Su He knew she was being too hasty today. Li Ruan had just broken up with Ji Yunzhang and was definitely upset. If she talked too much, it would only make Li Ruan resentful. She should take it slow. Li Ruan was just a fool. She was not afraid of being fooled.
After lunch, Su He obediently paid the bill, and they went their separate ways after leaving the restaurant. Li Ruan had to practice her acting skills in the afternoon, so she took a taxi directly to the company.
Even while in the car, he didn't forget to send a message to Xi Leng to ask if he had eaten lunch.
The other person's response was just another "Mmm".
Li Ruan realized that if the photos she posted weren't so sexy, Xi Leng's response to her would always be just "uh-huh".
It's okay, we'll take it slow.
She is the most patient person imaginable.
I was at the company until four o'clock, and as soon as I went downstairs, I received a call from He Cheng.
"Ms. Li, the president asked me to pick you up and take you to your apartment here. I'm downstairs from your company."
Li Ruan looked around at the door with her phone in hand, and sure enough, she saw He Cheng standing by the car.
She hung up the phone and went over.
He Cheng opened the car door and waited for Li Ruan to get into the back seat before getting into the passenger seat.
"That apartment is very close to here; it only takes about five minutes by car." That's because there's a traffic light at the intersection; otherwise, it would be even faster.
Li Ruan: "Actually, the apartments at our company are pretty good, and I don't really want to move."
He Cheng immediately broke out in a cold sweat. "Miss Li, please don't! I've been busy over there for several hours. If you don't go, all the preparations the president made will be for nothing."
Li Ruan said "Oh," and replied, "That must be hard work for you, He Zhu. I'll treat you to a meal another time."
He Cheng: You can only invite me if I dare to eat!
Of course, he also knew that Li Ruan's words were just casual remarks, like saying to a close friend: "Let's have a drink sometime!"
This is very spiritual when you have free time.
If you take it too seriously, you've already lost.
The car soon stopped at the entrance of an upscale residential community. He Cheng and Li Ruan registered at the entrance. Security in this community was extremely tight, and registration was required to enter.
Back in the car, it circled two buildings before stopping again. The driver stayed in the car while He Cheng took Li Ruan upstairs.
The elevator stopped on the 21st floor. He Cheng entered the password and also helped Li Ruan register her fingerprint. The door opened and He Cheng showed Li Ruan around the apartment. Well, actually, there should be two apartments, one elevator for two households, but the generous CEO Xi bought the one next door and opened up the two sides, making this floor more than 400 square meters!
An apartment of over 400 square meters is larger than some small villas!
"This is the walk-in closet that the CEO asked me to tidy up. It contains some of this year's latest designer items, including shoes, bags, and jewelry. If Miss Li doesn't like them, she can return or exchange them; just give me a call."
Looking at the dozens of haute couture women's clothes, beautiful shoes, accessories and bags displayed in the dressing room, Li Ruan once again gained a clear understanding of Xi Leng's wealth.
"Thank you so much, Mr. He."
As the patron, and a very wealthy one at that, all she had to do was talk. The real hard work and effort went to He Cheng, her special assistant. Li Ruan's thanks were absolutely heartfelt.
Li Ruan rummaged through a few clothes and looked them over. "Besides, He Zhu has very good taste. I really like all these clothes."
He Cheng was embarrassed by the praise, but still said something on behalf of his boss: "These were all selected by me according to the boss's requirements. I'm glad Miss Li likes them."
Li Ruan raised an eyebrow: "Does President Xi require that all clothes be dignified and elegant?"
He Cheng: "How did Miss Li know?"
Li Ruan chuckled, "He Zhu, take me to see the other rooms."
He Cheng immediately led the way, "This is your bedroom, with a study. If Miss Li is not satisfied, it can be renovated."
Her room was already quite large, and it was right next to the walk-in closet, so it was very spacious and the room was comfortably furnished. Why would she need to renovate?
"No need, it's fine as it is."
Seeing that Li Ruan really had no further requests, He Cheng handed over all the keys and access cards for the apartment to her and then left.
Li Ruan went straight to the study. Everything here was so complete that she could move in with just her phone, let alone just bring her suitcase.
