Chapter 283 Directing a Show



Ma Yunfei was secretly pleased; Li Sha's statement at least showed that she still knew how to be grateful.

"Sasha, I'm introducing you to a rich second-generation boyfriend just to repay you for giving me 400cc of blood. In the future, if you marry Wang Xiaobian and find happiness, I'll be satisfied. I have no other requests."

Li Sha sighed and said, "Although I have already won over Wang Xiaobian, it's questionable whether his mother will take a liking to me. Brother Ma, what do you think I should do about Wang Xiaobian's mother?"

Ma Yunfei gave her some advice: "Sasha, generally speaking, what Wang Xiaobian's mother is most worried about is that you are only after her family's property, not her son. So you have to dispel her concerns."

Li Sha said, "I've already bragged to Wang Xiaobian about my illustrious family background and that my family has a heirloom that's worth enough to buy a city."

Ma Yunfei was startled and asked, "You...you said your family's heirloom can buy a city? That's a huge exaggeration."

“Brother Ma, Wang Xiaobian likes to collect antiques. He should know that some antiques are indeed priceless. Doesn’t that mean he could buy a city? Besides, there’s no fixed amount of money a city is worth.”

“Sasha, you may be able to fool Wang Xiaobian with your boasting, but you might not be able to fool his mother. Don’t underestimate this cunning old woman. As far as I know, she’s the one in charge in the Wang family.”

Li Sha said with great worry, "As long as I can get past Wang Xiaobian's mother, I will become a noble lady. This is my long-cherished wish. Brother Ma, you have to give me an idea."

Ma Yunfei thought for a moment and said, "I do have a solution: you pretend you don't know that Wang Xiaobian's family has tens of millions in assets, and lie that you only know that Wang Xiaobian's family runs a small restaurant. This way, you can relieve Wang Xiaobian's mother's worries."

Li Sha nodded excitedly and said, "Brother Ma, you are truly a modern-day Zhuge Liang!"

Ma Yunfei frowned, then thought of another plan and said, "I also want to direct a play."

"Brother Ma, what kind of movie do you want to direct?"

Ma Yunfei said this, and Li Sha nodded repeatedly, saying happily, "Brother Ma, this play is so wonderful! Wang Xiaobian's mother will definitely give me a thumbs up after watching this play."

Wild Girl frowned and said, "Brother Ma, I won't be the lead in this play!"

Li Sha said anxiously, "Ye Ya, you...you won't help me?"

"Why should I help you? Humph!"

Li Sha quickly said, "Ye Ya, I'll take you shopping for clothes tomorrow morning. I just looked at the clothes you bought today, and none of them are for winter. I'll buy you two sets of winter clothes."

Ye Ya asked, "You're not planning to take me to a street stall to buy clothes, are you? I don't care about the clothes there."

"Wild girl, I'll take you to buy the same clothes I took you to in the summer."

Ye Ya asked, "The clothes Sister Xia buys for me are all high-end. If you buy me winter clothes, I want high-end clothes too."

Li Sha cursed inwardly, "You wild mountain girl, you're lucky if you can wear clothes from street stalls, yet you want to wear high-end clothes. You really don't know your place."

Li Sha cursed the wild girl in her heart, but said something else aloud: "Wild girl, I'll buy you high-end clothes. Pick whatever you like."

"Really? Then don't worry about the money."

Li Sha only brought 300 yuan with her when she came to City A this time; she hadn't planned to buy anything.

Ye Ya said happily, "If you buy me two sets of winter clothes, I'll agree to act in this play."

While Ye Ya was trying on clothes again, Li Sha whispered to Ma Yunfei, "Do you have any money with you? Lend me a thousand yuan."

Ma Yunfei agreed, "No problem, it's not a loan, consider it a gift."

Li Sha's eyes widened as she asked, "Brother Ma, have you made a fortune in business lately?"

"I wouldn't say I've made a fortune. I've only earned a few thousand yuan in the four months I've been doing business. I want to help you out. If you can become a lady of high society, consider this thousand yuan as a congratulatory gift."

Just then, the waiter shouted loudly from outside, "Who is Li Sha? Come to the front desk on the first floor to answer the phone."

Li Sha said happily, "It must be Wang Xiaobian calling. Maybe his mother has agreed to let me meet."

Li Sha excitedly ran downstairs to answer the phone.

The call was indeed from Wang Xiaobian. He said excitedly, "Miss Li, my mother has agreed to meet you. It's scheduled for 2 PM tomorrow at Yipinxiang Tea House. Don't be late tomorrow, my mother hates people who have no sense of time."

Li Sha concealed her joy and deliberately said in a flat tone, "Okay, I understand. I'll be there on time."

Li Sha ran upstairs and said triumphantly, "Brother Ma, Wang Xiaobian's mother wants to meet me at Yipinxiang Tea House at 2 pm tomorrow."

Ma Yunfei slapped his thigh and said, "It seems you really are destined to be a noblewoman."

"Brother Ma, hurry up and rehearse the play that's going to be performed tomorrow. Don't let any flaws slip up. If Wang Xiaobian's mother notices something, it'll be troublesome."

Ye Ya said unhappily, "I haven't bought the clothes yet, so I have no interest in rehearsing."

Li Sha had no choice but to take out 1,200 yuan from her pocket, stuff it into Ye Ya's hand, and say, "Take this money, it'll definitely be enough for you to buy two sets of winter clothes."

Ye Ya counted the money and said with satisfaction, "That's more like it. Winter hasn't come yet, and it seems like the stores don't have any winter clothes. I'll buy them myself in the fall."

Wild Girl agreed to rehearse.

Under Ma Yunfei's guidance, they rehearsed for half an hour. Ma Yunfei said with satisfaction, "Okay, let's do it this way tomorrow."

Wild Girl rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "Brother Ma, are you asking me to be a liar?"

"Girl, we just want to tell that rich lady that Li Sha doesn't care about money."

"Hmph! Don't think I can't see it, Li Sha loves money the most."

The next day at 1:30 pm, the three of them went to Yipinxiang Tea House.

Yeya wore the clothes she bought yesterday, dressing up like a well-bred young lady.

Ma Yunfei was still wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, making Wang Xiaobian unable to recognize him.

Around 1:50, Wang Xiaobian and his mother arrived at Yipinxiang Teahouse.

Li Sha greeted her with a smile and said in a humble yet respectful manner, "Hello, Auntie, my name is Li Sha."

Wang Xiaobian introduced, "Mom, this is Li Sha, whom I mentioned to you."

The Queen Mother looked Li Sha up and down and nodded.

Li Sha was wearing the same clothes as the female worker from yesterday, and she looked very simple and unpretentious.

"Auntie, please come upstairs. It's quieter upstairs."

Li Sha helped Wang Mu upstairs.

She said to the waiter, "Give me a pot of green tea for fifteen yuan, and two plates of sunflower seeds, the domestic kind."

The Queen Mother asked, "Li Sha, you're not even willing to order good tea to entertain me? You only ordered a pot of green tea that costs fifteen yuan. You...you're too stingy."
