Chapter 110: Getting a Girl
After Shi Jin left, Bai Zhenzhu also took a shower and decided not to go to the studio today, leaving Yin Jiaxi to keep an eye on things.
She first went to a pharmacy and bought birth control pills.
Then she went to the supermarket and bought a chicken, yam, ginseng, and goji berries. She was going to treat herself to a good meal tonight and make a ginseng chicken soup.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Li Zifeng get out of the Bentley, unshaven and disheveled.
Bai Zhenzhu was genuinely startled. Wasn't Li Zifeng the one who cared most about his image?
She took a step back with a hint of disgust, but Li Zifeng immediately tried to hug her without saying a word.
She used her shopping bag to block them apart, firmly refusing, "Li Zifeng, I think I've made myself clear to you, it's over between us!"
"Pearl, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have questioned you or insulted you. You can scold me, you can hit me, just don't abandon me, okay?"
He used to be the one pursued by countless girls, and there was no woman he couldn't be with. But today he's so lowly that he's not even as good as a dog.
"Li Zifeng, look at yourself now, you have no manly qualities whatsoever. I really don't like you anymore, please leave."
"Pearl, no, you like me, you like me!"
Seeing that more and more neighbors were gathering around to watch the spectacle, Bai Zhenzhu had no choice but to pull him into his Bentley.
As soon as the car door closed, Bai Zhenzhu said coldly, "Li Zifeng, stop making a scene, okay? You're already the president of Lishi Group, not a kindergarten kid. Can you please stop crying all the time?"
Yes, Li Zifeng cried, and he cried terribly.
No matter how harsh Bai Zhenzhu's words were, Li Zifeng stubbornly refused to compromise.
Then he took out a black card from his pocket.
"Pearl, there are one billion in this card. You can use this card from now on..."
"What do you mean? You think you can buy me out of this for a billion dollars?"
Bai Zhenzhu stared coldly at the card, then looked at Li Zifeng with a mocking gaze.
"Pearl, I told you I would hand over my card to you."
Li Zifeng thought his actions were incredibly cool, but little did he know that they only made Bai Zhenzhu angrier.
Bai Zhenzhu suddenly remembered three years ago, when Shi Jin dragged two large suitcases containing all his wealth, which seemed to be over three billion...
Looking at Li Zifeng on the other hand, he is now the president of the Li Group, so it's impossible for his net worth to be only 1 billion; perhaps two more zeros need to be added.
But he only gave me one-hundredth of his wealth, yet he expects me to be grateful to him?
Does this mean she's never seen money before?
She felt that Li Zifeng was truly outdone by Shi Jin when it came to spending money.
"Li Zifeng, you only have a billion? My brother gave all his money to my sister-in-law!"
"Pearls, isn't one billion enough?"
There was a kind of clear stupidity in Li Zifeng's eyes; he seemed genuinely oblivious to the intricacies of the situation.
But Bai Zhenzhu knew that Li Zifeng was just pretending to be stupid.
She remembered that Li Zifeng had mentioned before that his father had been cheated out of money by a woman, so he would be more cautious about money due to his father's influence.
But since Li Zifeng likes to play dumb, she'll play along.
So he readily accepted the card, saying, "Consider this billion as our breakup fee. Don't come looking for me again."
"Pearl, that's not what I meant. I don't want to break up with you!"
"But I already hate you."
She opened the car door and strode into the apartment with haughty steps.
Li Zifeng, inside the car, remained in a daze for a long time...
...
What disgusted Bai Zhenzhu even more happened the next day at noon.
A middle-aged woman dressed in gold and silver, who looked like someone not to be trifled with, came to their studio.
"I'm looking for White Pearl, but who is White Pearl?"
Lacking even basic manners, Bai Zhenzhu was right about this noblewoman.
She put down her painting and walked towards her with neither arrogance nor servility.
"Madam, I am Bai Zhenzhu. May I ask what business you have with me? Are you looking for someone to conduct some business?"
The noblewoman scrutinized her for a long time before finally letting out a soft laugh.
"You are White Pearl?"
"Yes, that's me."
"Ha, she really does look like a poor wretch. No wonder she's become a gold digger for my son!"
"Madam, please show some respect, or I will call the police."
White Pearl is no pushover either; she won't let herself be bullied like that.
"Call the police! I'll have a good talk with them and make you return all the 1 billion yuan you took from my son!"
When Bai Zhenzhu heard about the 1 billion, she finally understood what was going on.
So it was Li Zifeng's crazy mother!
She glanced at the curious employees looking outside, gave Yoon Ga-hee a wink, and then led the lady to the lounge next door.
"You're Li Zifeng's mother? I thought the wives of the Li Group were very well-mannered. I didn't expect you to be just like my country aunt, a real shrew!"
Although people should learn to respect the elderly and care for the young, Bai Zhenzhu felt that the ignorant old woman still needed to be properly educated.
Upon hearing this, Madam Li immediately flew into a rage.
She raised her head and shouted, "You little bitch, how dare you talk to me like that? Does your studio not want to stay in Kyoto anymore? You believe I'll blacklist you tomorrow!"
"Of course you have the ability to blacklist me, but I believe that if Li Zifeng knew that his mother was so unreasonable and unable to distinguish right from wrong, he would definitely be disappointed in you."
"Don't try to use my son as an excuse. Let me tell you, I'm here today to collect my money. You'd better return the money my son gave you, or I'll hire the most famous lawyer in Kyoto to sue you until you're completely ruined!"
Bai Zhenzhu was truly impressed by these upper-class ladies, from Li Qianni's mother to Li Zifeng's mother.
It seems that not every wealthy woman can be as approachable and understanding as Shi Jin's mother.
She suddenly missed Shi's mother...
"I'm sorry, this money was given to me by Li Zifeng, and I don't think you have the right to ask for it back."
Then he called security and asked the haughty lady to leave.
Afterwards, Bai Zhenzhu called Li Zifeng using the studio's phone.
"Hey, Pearl? Have you thought this through? You can't let me go, and you still want to be with me?"
Upon hearing Bai Zhenzhu's voice, Li Zifeng's voice trembled with excitement.
Bai Zhenzhu sneered, "Li Zifeng, you really have no class. You even brought your own mother to ask me for money? It's just one billion, I'll give it back to you, and I'll even give you an extra two billion as interest for this day and night!"
Li Zifeng, who had just been hung up on, received a text message with a transfer of 1.2 billion yuan.
In his entire life, Li Zifeng has spent all his money on women, but he has never been so generously lavishly treated by a woman before.
But then he realized something: his mother had gone to Bai Zhenzhu to ask for money.
He came home last night completely drunk and probably said something he shouldn't have to his mother.
So he quickly dialed his mother's number to question her.
"Mom, who told you to go ask Bai Zhenzhu for money!"
"Why can't I ask her for money? My son is so outstanding, yet he dares to break up with you. I think she's just a gold digger who's only with you for money! Our Li family will never let her into the family!"
After hearing his mother's words, Li Zifeng had only one feeling: if last night he thought there was still a one percent chance of winning back Bai Zhenzhu, today it was zero...
But he truly loves Bai Zhenzhu; he can't live without her!
