Chapter 198 Happy Xiao Li
"Let's order first. I haven't eaten all day."
As he spoke, Jin Qixuan handed over the menu.
Li Zhien took the menu and asked curiously: "Didn't you eat just now?"
"I didn't eat a single bite. I left some food in my stomach."
He's quite well behaved. It's worth my waiting for so long.
Li Zhien curled the corners of her mouth and lowered her head to draw on the menu.
He chose two dishes that Jin Qixuan liked, and one dish that he liked, then handed the menu to Jin Qixuan.
"Why only order three dishes? No need to save me money."
He helped someone borrow 5 billion yuan, but when he treated a dinner party, they only had three dishes. It's embarrassing enough to tell others about it.
Therefore, Jin Qixuan took the menu, lowered his head and selected three more dishes, making a lucky 66, with the main theme of borrowing money smoothly.
Then, he pressed the call service button.
"I'm on a diet, so I can't eat too much."
"Why are you losing weight? Where have you gained weight?"
Jin Qixuan glanced at her thin arm with a puzzled look on his face, and felt that he could break it with a little effort.
"Because my new album is coming out soon, I want to meet my fans in my best form."
At this time, the waiter who received the service call came in and took the menu.
Although she looked serious on the surface, anyone with a discerning eye could see the curiosity of gossip in her eyes.
After the waiter left, Jin Qixuan gave her a thumbs up and said:
"You don't need to lose weight at all. You already have the most perfect appearance. It's totally great!"
Li Zhien snorted proudly: "Huh, you are so sweet, you have something to ask of me?"
"It has nothing to do with whether it's a matter of fact or not. I'm telling the truth."
Hearing this, Lee Ji-eun smiled slightly and just quietly watched how long he could pretend.
"By the way, how's your album going?"
Li Zhien thought for a moment and replied, "I have almost finished preparing the songs for my solo performance, and there are still a few songs that I need to collaborate with other singers."
"Cooperation? You still need cooperation? Who are you helping to alleviate poverty?"
"What poverty alleviation? GD Oppa is very talented!"
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan shrugged and said nothing.
Although he acknowledged that he had musical talent, Jin Qixuan really couldn't appreciate it.
Compared to GD, Kim Ki-hyun prefers to listen to Park Jae-bum. At least he has muscles and is manly enough.
"By the way, when are you free, let's rehearse the stage play."
Jin Qixuan thought about his recent schedule and said:
"I will definitely have to do promotional roadshows every day during the first week of the movie's premiere. Goblin will also be aired in a few days, and I will have to participate in post-sales activities then. As the year draws to a close, the products I endorse will also be on sale, and I need to cooperate with the merchants to attend events. So I have time from 5 to 7 a.m. every day."
Li Zhien: “…”
A good five to seven.
For night owl Lee Ji-eun, waking up at five o'clock is simply killing her.
Seeing her speechless face, Jin Qixuan asked considerately:
"Why, is it too early?"
"It's not just too early, sometimes I don't go to bed until five!"
Jin Qixuan: “…”
What kind of divine schedule is it to go to bed at 5 o'clock...
The two fell silent for a moment.
After a while, Jin Qixuan suggested: "How about I contact you after work every day, and we can check in on the same day? It's just to borrow money, so it's okay to work harder.
But he felt that his service should be better, so Jin Qixuan added: "If the time really doesn't match, we can rehearse via video."
What a great video rehearsal...
Li Zhien suppressed her laughter, nodded, and took the initiative to ask: "Okay. By the way, how did you see the house today?"
Well, since you are so proactive, I won’t be polite to you.
"Very good, I liked it at first sight."
Then, Jin Qixuan spoke and gestured as he preached:
"This house costs 12 billion, and it will cost about 1 billion, including all the other expenses. I have 3 billion, and my family gave me 5 billion, so I still need 5 billion. I want to borrow 5 billion from you so that I don't have to bother two people. Do you think it's okay?"
5 billion is a huge sum of money. Even if Lee Ji-eun doesn't lend it, Kim Ki-hyeon won't be angry.
After all, there are very few people who have 5 billion in liquid cash.
If Lee Ji-eun doesn't lend the money, then Kim Ki-hyeon can only take it from Old Kim.
There is no other way. After all, the deposit has been paid, so I have to buy it.
However, Lee Ji-eun didn't even hesitate, as if she was waiting for him to say this, and nodded in agreement readily.
Then, without mentioning the IOU or the interest, he changed the subject and asked, "Are you planning to renovate your house? Or are you planning to move in right away?"
"I plan to change the wallpaper in the master bedroom to liquid, add some equipment and sandbags to the gym, put a display cabinet in the lobby, and then... I'll invite you to visit when I'm done."
Since Lee Ji-eun didn't mention interest, Kim Ki-hyeon didn't plan to give it.
There are many ways to repay a favor, and it doesn't necessarily have to be by paying a large amount of interest.
It’s as if Lee Ji-eun is short of that little money.
In fact, Lee Ji-eun is similar to Kim Ki-hyun, and they also keep their money in their own hands.
On the one hand, they don’t understand investment, and on the other hand, they are afraid of being cheated in investment.
After all, there are many scammers now who specifically target artists with low educational qualifications to commit financial fraud.
For example, some time ago, Kim Taeyeon was cheated out of 1 billion by a real estate company in the name of investing in land development.
Therefore, Li Zhien’s investment understanding is to buy houses, buy houses, and buy houses again.
If it wasn't for the purpose of keeping an eye on Jin Qixuan, she would even want to buy the apartment upstairs as an investment.
As for the IOU, Lee Ji-eun doesn't take it as seriously.
And Kim Ki-hyeon can't deny it even if he wants to, because he has Kim Jong-kook as a guarantor.
If she really can't pay it back, Lee Ji-eun can accept sexual compensation.
"Okay, then don't forget to say hello to your neighbors when you decorate... Oh, yes, my neighbor is me..."
Li Zhien slapped her forehead and showed a silly smile.
Jin Qixuan nodded and replied, "Yeah, I asked upstairs and no one lives there."
"It's too late now. I'll make an appointment with the bank to transfer the money to you tomorrow."
"Okay. Eat quickly. You look so thin, as if you can't afford to eat. Eat more."
“…”
Jin Qixuan, you showed your true colors after borrowing money, didn't you? The two of them ate and talked, and when they were almost done, they prepared to leave.
Jin Qixuan packed up the leftover dishes.
"Thank you for borrowing the money. I will pay you back as soon as possible."
"There's no rush for this. I won't need it for the time being anyway. I don't know how to invest and manage money, so I can only put it in the bank and earn interest."
That being said, Jin Qixuan definitely can’t delay returning the money.
5 billion is a huge sum of money even if it is deposited in the bank and earns interest.
After saying goodbye to Lee Ji-eun, Kim Ki-hyeon called Kim Jong-kook on his way home.
Old Jin answered the phone at one o'clock in the morning with a very aggressive and irritable tone.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Jin Qixuan made him dare not speak anymore.
"You're dead if you disturb my sleep without a good reason."
"Um...Uncle, I have borrowed 5 billion from my friends, so you don't have to run away."
Hearing this, Kim Jong Kook on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, as if he was turning on the phone.
Then, he quickly asked a series of questions: "Did you borrow it yourself? A friend? Which friend of yours is so rich? Is it Zhao Yincheng?"
"It's not Inseong hyung, I borrowed it from IU."
"IU!? Are you close enough to IU to borrow 5 billion won casually?"
"Uh, it's just okay, right...?"
"Okay, I get it. Yes, you should pay them back as soon as possible, but don't let them ask you for money. If you do that, your friendship will be over no matter what kind of relationship you have."
It's very true. Since ancient times, borrowing money is the most hurtful thing.
"Okay, I understand, uncle. Can you come with me to transfer the property tomorrow morning?"
"Okay, I'm going to sleep first."
