Li Ruan took out her phone: "Let's add each other's contact information."
With her slender fingers, she opened WeChat, scanned the QR code, added Xi Sang as a friend, and exchanged phone numbers. Xi Sang then tactfully opened the car door and invited Li Ruan to get in.
Xiao Yuan followed, rolled up the partition in the car, and looked at Li Ruan with a shocked expression, "Sister Ruan, you bought a car? What's wrong with this driver?"
Li Ruan: "They were gifts from my sugar daddy, and the driver's was too."
Xiao Yuan exclaimed excitedly, "Sister Ruan, that gentleman seems to care about you a lot!"
She had seen Xi Leng's true appearance when he took them to the airport last time. Handsome, noble, calm and aloof were the labels Xiao Yuan gave to Xi Leng. However, because Li Ruan did not introduce them, Xiao Yuan did not know Xi Leng's real name.
Li Ruan: "Where did you get that conclusion?"
Xiao Yuan leaned close to Li Ruan's ear and whispered, "Although I'm not good at business, I do have some eyesight. This Xi, Xi Sang, right? He looks like a professional bodyguard, but he was assigned to be your driver. Isn't the meaning obvious?"
But the Xi family? Is it the Xi family she knows?
Li Ruan smiled but didn't say anything more.
Xiao Yuan fell into deep thought. If it really was the one she was thinking of, that would be even better. As far as she knew, that President Xi was currently single. If someone were to expose this in the future, Sister Ruan could still say that they were dating normally.
Women in the entertainment industry are most afraid of getting involved in scandals involving being kept by sugar daddies, but they can have normal relationships without any problems, because that's their freedom.
Thank goodness.
The car soon arrived at the film studio. After getting out of the car, Li Ruan instructed Xi Sang, "Could you please take Xiao Yuan with you? Her flight is at nine o'clock. After you drop her off, you can go back and rest. I'll call you in advance when I'm going back."
Xi Sang nodded in agreement.
As Li Ruan got out of the car and walked inside, a black van pulled up just then.
She recognized the car; it belonged to the famous movie star, Xu.
Thinking back to the scene two days ago when she fell from mid-air and Xu Chansheng ran towards her with outstretched arms, she felt that she still had to thank him.
Xu Chansheng got out of the car quickly, but he looked unhappy today. His face was no longer filled with his usual gentle smile; instead, it was somewhat gloomy.
"Good morning, Mr. Xu."
Xu Chansheng glanced at the van behind Li Ruan, then turned back and asked, "Is this your car?"
Li Ruan: "Yes."
Xu Chansheng's face darkened instantly, and he turned and left with his assistant.
Li Ruan: ...Did she offend him again? But she didn't do anything!
Does he have some serious illness?
Oh well, she just wanted to say thank you. Since the other person doesn't want to talk to her, she'll respect their wishes.
After Li Ruan entered the film studio, Xi Sang drove away, but he stopped again after driving less than two hundred meters. "Assistant Yuan, please take a taxi to the airport yourself. I can't take you there."
Xiao Yuan: She even beat up her assistant! And her surname isn't even Yuan!
"...Why can't I take you? Sister Ruan personally instructed you to take me to the airport. If you dare not take me, believe me, I'll go and complain to Sister Ruan!"
Xi Sang: ...The young master instructed him to be Miss Li's driver in name only and her bodyguard in reality. This does not include being a driver for a junior assistant!
He pulled ten red bills from his pocket and handed them to Xiaoyuan, saying, "I'll reimburse your taxi fare, hurry up."
Xiaoyuan was even angrier now. Was she someone who needed a thousand yuan? Or was she someone who couldn't afford a taxi?
"I'll give you two thousand, hurry up and drive!"
These days, few people carry cash when they go out, but she was an exception. She always carried tens of thousands of yuan in cash in her bag. She took out a wad of cash, counted out two thousand, and threw it into Xi Sang's hand.
Xi Sang: Is he the kind of person who's short of two thousand yuan?
"I'll give you 20,000 yuan, now take a taxi and leave!"
Xi Sang opened the glove compartment in the front passenger seat and took out two stacks of cash, throwing them to Xiao Yuan without hesitation!
Xiao Yuan: ...Damn it, this is the first time someone has ever thrown money at her like this!
Is a driver richer than her?
"I'll give you 200,000 yuan. Get me to the airport right now, or I'll tell Sister Ruan and have her tell your boss to fire you!"
Xi Sang: ...
He finally turned around and glanced at Miss Pear's assistant, whose face was flushed with anger. He looked her up and down several times but couldn't tell that she was rich. However, she was pretty, had a decent figure, and her eyes were quite bright.
"I'm sorry, please don't misunderstand. It's not that I don't want to see you off, but Miss Li's situation is special right now. She just had that incident a couple of days ago, and my boss has instructed me to protect her at all times..."
Xiao Yuan's angry face immediately deflated. She quickly snatched the red bills from Xi Sang's hand, stuffed them all into her bag, and then ran off the bus like a gust of wind.
Making over 20,000 yuan for free? Why not take it?
Looking at her retreating figure, Xi Sang suddenly felt like he had been cheated.
When Li Ruan joined the film crew, many staff members took the initiative to greet her. After all, she had fallen from such a height and only rested for two days before starting work. She was so dedicated!
Li Ruan greeted everyone one by one, then changed into her costume and started applying makeup. At that moment, Qiangzi came over with a resentful look on his face.
"Sister Ruan, are you saying I won't be allowed to come along anymore?"
The makeup artist was applying eyeshadow to her, but Li Ruan continued to squint and say, "How could that be? I'm so used to having you around. I wouldn't want you to leave!"
"Then why didn't you wake me up this morning?"
When Qiangzi asked her that, Li Ruan felt a tiny bit guilty. "Um, did I forget to return your car keys to you? How did you get here?"
Qiangzi looked at Liruan with a pitiful expression, "I took a taxi here. I'm not stupid enough to walk."
"Alright, alright, come here, let me give you a big red envelope. I just... I just fell down a couple of days ago, so my brain isn't working too well. It's not like I meant to be."
Li Ruan took out her phone and transferred 10,000 yuan to Qiangzi without hesitation.
Qiangzi immediately stopped feeling wronged.
If he could receive 10,000 yuan for being forgotten even once, he would want to come every day, hehehe!
The makeup artist behind Li Ruan looked on with envy: Does Sister Ruan need an assistant? She could take on a part-time job!
...
In Xu Chansheng's private dressing room, he closed his eyes and remained motionless, letting the makeup artist apply makeup to his face.
But his mind kept replaying what he had seen in the parking lot of his friend's hotel yesterday afternoon when he went to see his friend.
A familiar white SUV was parked in a corner of the parking lot. Next to it was a minivan that hadn't been registered yet. As their cars drove by, the minivan was shaking violently. Anyone with common sense would know what that vehicle was going through.
He hadn't taken it seriously at first, but when he arrived today, he saw Li Ruan get out of that unlicensed van...
