After putting down his phone, Lu Shiyan slowly and methodically tidied himself up.
He had to change clothes and blow-dry his hair, and he also had to meet with business partners later; he didn't even have time to rest.
Only after making himself appear as a cold-blooded and ruthless capitalist did Lu Shiyan leave the hotel.
As for Jiang Li, who said she wanted to sleep...
I can't sleep at all right now.
She tossed and turned in bed, her eyes fixed on the ceiling, her mind filled with certain lingering images.
Aaaaaah!!!
Jiang Li went berserk.
I can't fall asleep.
He simply got up and started drawing talismans again.
Once she's used up her energy and is tired, she'll probably fall asleep.
After drawing talismans for an hour, Jiang Li was indeed sleepy.
She quickly packed her things and lay down to sleep.
She fell asleep quickly as she wished, but in her dreams, she saw only colorful things.
So much so that...
When Jiang Li woke up early the next morning, she had a pair of panda eyes, which was quite unusual for her.
Those dark circles under his eyes...
Even without anyone telling her, she herself found it frightening.
Jiang Li, who hadn't planned to go out, received a message while torn between staying home and going out.
The sender was actually Tian Tian.
If Tian Tian hadn't suddenly messaged her, Jiang Li would have almost forgotten about her.
Tian Tian asked Jiang Li out, saying she had something to tell her.
Jiang Li, who was originally struggling to make up her mind, changed her clothes and went out without hesitation for a second.
Tian Tian chose a highly private club.
She didn't know much about the place, but she did know one thing...
The food here is absolutely top-notch.
Tian Tian noticed last time that the proprietress might have a particular preference when it comes to food, so...
When you invite someone out, you naturally have to cater to their preferences, right?
As soon as Jiang Li entered, Tian Tian was about to say something, but then, seeing Jiang Li's face, she asked in surprise, "Boss lady, what happened to your eyes? Your dark circles are so heavy. Did you go ghost hunting all night last night?"
Jiang Li: "..."
She didn't actually catch a ghost; instead, she was controlled by a lustful ghost.
"Ahem..." Jiang Li coughed lightly, her tone somewhat like an attempt to cover up the truth, "I just didn't sleep well, it has nothing to do with anything else."
Tian Tian: "???"
She didn't say it had anything to do with anything else.
However, seeing Jiang Li's appearance, Tian Tian said with some concern, "There's a rest room here, why don't you go and rest for a while?"
"No need." Jiang Li shook her head, then realized what she meant and said to Tian Tian with a serious expression, "Don't call me boss lady, I'm not."
This arrogant tone made Tian Tian smile inwardly.
Regardless of what the parties involved think, she's definitely shipping this couple.
"Well..." Tian Tian thought for a moment and felt that it wasn't quite appropriate for her to keep calling herself "boss lady" while traveling, and calling her "master" would also be a bit strange, so she said, "How about I just call you by your name?"
Jiang Li doesn't care what others call her if she has no further contact with them.
However, if there is still some overlap, it is best to address each other by name, since names are given so that people will call them by name.
After Jiang Li sat down, Tian Tian immediately asked the waiter to bring out delicious tea and pastries.
Jiang Li picked up a piece of pastry, took a bite, and then asked, "What do you want to see me about?"
Hmm, this pastry is quite delicious.
Although Tian Tian was a little embarrassed, she still forced herself to say, "It's just that the company got me a variety show gig, and filming is expected to start in about a month."
"Isn't this great?"
But what does this have to do with her?
People come to her to have their fortune told, whether it's good or bad?
"The variety show is called 'Me and My Brothers and Sisters,' which requires celebrities to bring their brothers and sisters to participate in the show, but the person they bring must be a non-celebrity," Tian Tian explained as she tried her best.
Of course, she doesn't have many true friends in her circle.
So when she received the notification, Jiang Li's image immediately came to mind.
“But I’m not your brother or sister either,” Jiang Li said, looking bewildered.
“Ahem…this brother and sister can be biological siblings, relatives, or close friends.” Tian Tian explained further, “I don’t have any brothers or sisters, and if they were biological siblings, the company wouldn’t give me that resource.”
Jiang Li has no interest in the entertainment industry.
Especially after being dragged into the trending topics by Jiang Chengying last time, she has even less of a good impression of the entertainment industry.
Now Tian Tian wants her to go record a variety show with her...
Isn't this ridiculous?
Just as she was about to refuse, Jiang Li's expression suddenly changed.
Her eyes narrowed slowly, and she asked in a serious tone, "Have you encountered anything these past two days?"
Tian Tian paused for a moment, then shook her head. "No, I've been doing fine these past few days. Plus, President Fu has replaced me with a lot of reliable staff, which has made my work much smoother. I haven't encountered anything unpleasant."
"Have you encountered any strange things?" Jiang Li found it unbelievable and couldn't help but ask.
Tian Tian thought for a moment, but couldn't come up with anything.
However, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of something. She immediately said, "One day I suddenly had a headache, but when I went to the hospital for a checkup, they couldn't find anything. Does that count?"
"When did this happen?" Jiang Li's face darkened.
Tian Tian thought about it carefully, "It happened a few days after my accident. I had headaches on and off a few times afterward, but they weren't serious, so I didn't pay much attention to them. In the last few days, they've stopped."
Jiang Li's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. She stared at Tian Tian's face for a while longer before finally asking, "Where are you filming this variety show?"
“The specific location hasn’t been decided yet, but since this variety show is all about putting people in a difficult position and witnessing the relationship between celebrities and ordinary people’s family and friends, so…” Tian Tian smiled slightly, then looked utterly dejected again, “It probably won’t be a good place. I think the director might even exile us to the far northwest.”
“Okay, I understand,” Jiang Li replied. “I will accompany you to record the variety show, but I also need to inform you in advance that I have to take the college entrance examination. If filming starts before the college entrance examination, everything will have to take my exam first.”
Tian Tian nodded repeatedly, "Okay, that's for sure. The college entrance exam is so important, it's a life-changing event... wait..."
As Tian Tian spoke, her expression became excited, "You...you're taking the college entrance exam this year? You're still a high school student?!"
Although she had previously thought Jiang Li looked like a high school student, she thought he must be in college at least.
So he really was just a high school student!
Actually, she felt that the big boss was a bit of a beast, even though he was dating a college student.
But unexpectedly...
He could be even more beastly!
Jiang Li was speechless at Tian Tian's sudden outburst. She blinked and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with a high school student?"
"No...no..." Tian Tian immediately shook her head, but her expression became even more complicated. "I just...I just didn't expect it..."
If she was already so amazing in high school, what was she doing during high school?
"Now that you know, there's no need to be surprised."
"Mmm." Tian Tian tried to suppress the turmoil in her heart and made herself look more obedient. "Don't worry, although the specific time for filming hasn't been set yet, it will definitely be after the college entrance examination, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Okay." Jiang Li didn't dwell on it anymore; once she confirmed this, that was enough.
"Then it's settled, okay?" Tian Tian asked again.
"good."
Jiang Li's expression was very serious as she agreed.
She had just inadvertently sensed that familiar aura on Tian Tian again, but because of the talisman she had given her, the aura wasn't very strong, and she couldn't quite figure out what the other party had done.
However, if the other party makes a move during the recording of a variety show, she will definitely be able to find out who is behind it.
Moreover, that man is ruthless and vicious; she absolutely cannot allow him to continue wreaking havoc on the world.
