Lin Chao's disgusted rebuke made Diao Ling, who was trying to play the victim, tremble so badly she could barely stand.
"Brother Lin."
Her face was deathly pale, and she asked unwillingly, "Are you really going to be so heartless towards me?!"
She knew that people in high positions like Lin Chao were unlikely to have genuine feelings.
But after all, she had been with this man for so long, and in the end, she was dumped so completely!
"Diao Ling, if you behave yourself, I can give you any resources you want."
"But who gave you permission to move? It was someone who should have been moved."
Lin Chao seems gentle, and he is indeed quite nice to Diao Ling most of the time. But when he's cold, he can be terrifyingly so.
Lin Chao showed no mercy to Diao Ling, but he was all smiles and coaxing towards Bai Liu.
No amount of coaxing will work; Bai Liu's current influence makes him a target for many.
This is a real gold mine.
Bai Liu was forced to sit on the sofa by him, holding a freshly brewed cup of Longjing tea in her hands. If Lin Chao hadn't given the order to deal with this woman, he figured he would have spilled the Longjing tea too.
"Alright, Xiao Liu, Li Li is still protected by Xie Chen, no one dares to touch him."
When Diao Ling mentioned this to him last time, he didn't agree.
At that time, he didn't know about Bai Li and Bai Liu's relationship, so the reason for his refusal was naturally due to Xie Chen.
There were bodyguards at home, so Lin Chao sent someone to take Diao Ling away.
This also signifies that from now on, Diao Ling will never be able to turn the tables on him.
When Diao Ling was dragged out, she panicked completely: "Brother Lin, I was wrong!"
"Please save me, for the sake of my following you, I beg you..."
Pleading and crying rang out, but Lin Chao didn't even glance in that direction.
Bai Liu drank half a cup of Longjing tea before he could catch his breath a little.
"It's getting late, I need to go back."
He got up, put the tea leaves Lin Chao had just given him into his pocket, and walked away.
Lin Chao chased after him, saying, "I'll take you home."
The next day.
Bai Li woke up in bed. He had slept as a human the night before, and now he was being held in Xie Chen's arms, unable to move at all.
"gentlemen."
Bai Li rubbed her eyes. Her voice, still groggy from the early morning, sounded soft and sweet.
What time is it?
He hadn't even opened his eyes yet, only subconsciously asking Xie Chen beside him.
Xie Chen kept his eyes closed and did not respond.
Bai Li was stunned for a while before slowly coming to her senses.
The gauze on his head is changed every day. Right now, his messy hair is half-covering the gauze, his beautiful amber eyes are wet from yawning, and his whole person exudes a soft aura.
"gentlemen?"
Bai Li tilted her head back, propped herself up on her arms, and looked at Xie Chen beside her.
Seeing that Xie Chen was still asleep, he simply lay down on Xie Chen's chest, got close to Xie Chen's face, and began to examine him closely.
"It's so beautiful."
Bai Li reached out and poked Xie Chen's high nose bridge and his slightly pale lips.
As he poked and poked, he started to feel a little like kissing Xie Chen's cheek.
But he's not a cat anymore. If he's talking to Mr. Qin, then he's just being a pervert.
Bai Li stared longingly at Xie Chen's handsome face, silently memorizing it in her heart—
Once the gentleman agrees to the marriage he's had with his child, he'll give him a big kiss!
Just like in the movies, I'll pin my husband against the wall and make him a wall slam!
“Lili”.
Having been stared at for too long, Xie Chen opened his eyes, a hint of helplessness flashing across them.
Why are you looking at me like that?
He pretended to be asleep, wanting to see what the little guy was going to do while staring at him, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see anything.
Bai Li had been harboring some ill intentions, and now, caught off guard, she was caught red-faced.
I want to wake you up.
He said nervously, "Today is the last day of recording the show, so I need to get up early."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chen sat up.
"good."
After he sat up, he checked Bai Li's gauze and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Let's get up together."
"Um!"
The two of them lived in the same bedroom, and all their clothes were kept in one closet.
Bai Li doesn't know how to organize his clothes. Every day, Xie Chen personally picks out and coordinates all the clothes he wears.
"It's getting colder outside, I need to put on my long johns today."
Xie Chen took out the fleece-lined thermal underwear and made sure Bai Li put it on obediently.
Bai Li has only recently become human, and is still in a state of confusion regarding aesthetics.
Therefore, I didn't feel there was anything wrong with these fleece-lined thermal underwear.
He put on the clothes without any hesitation, then slipped on a pair of pants that Xie Chen handed him, and went to wash up in his slippers.
downstairs.
Uncle Xie prepared breakfast for them and asked, "When will Lili's head injury heal?"
Living under the same roof, the relationship between the kitten and the boy naturally couldn't be kept secret from Uncle Xie.
Xie Boru looks kind now, but when he was young, he was no saint when he protected the young master.
"Almost done."
Bai Li drank the nourishing soup that Uncle Xie had prepared for her and obediently replied, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Uncle Xie leaned closer and examined it carefully: "No? It's alright as long as it doesn't hurt anymore."
"Tonight is your final, come back early, I'll cook you something delicious as a reward."
These days, Lili goes out to compete every day, and Uncle Xie hasn't missed a single match.
The two were chatting intimately, and Xie Chen occasionally fed Bai Li a bite, but didn't say much.
A moment later.
Xie Chen and Bai Li were ready to go out.
Bai Li sat down on the chair in the entryway and wiggled her sock-clad feet.
Xie Chen squatted down and naturally pinched the chubby foot: "Be good, don't move."
Bai Li felt a little itchy from his pinching and couldn't help but try to dodge.
“Sir, I can dress myself.”
No, it's not that Bai Li is spoiled, but that Xie Chen is used to putting shoes on him himself.
"You can't tie your shoelaces properly."
Xie Chen lowered his eyes and quickly put the shoes on for him.
A few days ago, I let Lili put on his shoes himself, and he tied the shoelaces in a mess. No, he tied them in a knot, and the shoelaces would come undone after just a few steps.
There was no other way but for Xie Chen to do it himself.
The kitten clearly needs a transition period to human form, and during this transition period, he has an inescapable responsibility to take good care of it.
The two arrived at the recording site.
The show's director hastily announced Diao Ling's withdrawal from the competition.
"Due to a sudden illness, Diao Ling will unfortunately be unable to continue the competition."
The director delivered his prepared remarks, but Bai Li, sitting in the audience, felt nothing about them.
"Fatty said today is going to be troublesome, and we'll have to stay here for a long time."
Bai Li lowered her head and played with Xie Chen's large hand again.
Bai Liu, who had followed, twitched his eyelids and turned his younger brother over.
"Is it okay for men to do this to each other? Lili, are you bored and playing with Sixth Brother's hands again?"
As Bai Liu spoke, he extended his hand.
To be fair, Sixth Brother's hands are quite beautiful, but...
Bai Li frowned and argued, "Sir, your hands need to be bigger so they can completely cover my hands!"
Bai Liu: "..."
Bai Liu calmly said, "Our eldest brother's hands are big too. You can play with them however you want when he comes back."
Bai Li choked.
Under Sixth Brother's watchful eye, Bai Li couldn't possibly lay a hand on Xie Chen.
The two brothers looked at each other, and for the first time, Bai Liu saw a hint of rebellion in his usually obedient younger brother.
But before he could take a closer look, his manager, Fatty, called Bai Li away.
Backstage.
The remaining contestants, for some reason, all seemed to look at Bai Li with a hint of fear and apprehension.
"Bai Li".
Someone casually struck up a conversation with him, saying, "The finals are coming up soon, are you nervous?"
Bai Li shook her head: "Not nervous."
The person asking the question paused for a moment, then said jokingly, "No? Nervous... You don't know you're going to win, do you?"
Bai Li seemed a little confused by the question: "Hasn't the competition started yet?"
The man said "Ah," and then replied, "Right, it hasn't started yet."
Bai Li looked at him blankly: "Then how could you say I knew I would win the championship?"
other side:"……"
The other person originally intended to make a subtle dig, but it's unclear whether he's genuinely naive or just pretending, as they passed the topic back to him like a football.
The atmosphere became awkward for a few seconds.
Another player stepped in to smooth things over: "Let's not talk about that. By the way, I was also wondering what your plans are after the competition?"
"Of course, it depends on the company's arrangements."
"Listen to the company."
Everyone else said they would listen to the company, but Bai Li replied straightforwardly, "I still have to go back to the store to deliver fish."
Everyone: "???"
What kind of fish should I send?
"I have a job with good pay. If I work hard and complete a lot of orders each month, I can earn 10,000 yuan."
Bai Li proudly shared his great job; he had done his research, and his salary was even higher than that of some college graduates!
Bai Li's answer shocked everyone.
"You've already come to participate in the talent show, so, don't you mean you won't develop a career in the entertainment industry in the future?"
"No? Ah."
Bai Li was quite adamant about this: "I'm going back to continue delivering fish!"
The entertainment industry is too chaotic.
Even though Third Brother is in this circle, so many people still want to sleep with him.
Moreover, Bai Li searched online and found all sorts of gossip about the entertainment industry, which was quite frightening.
Bai Li's answer was, "I don't know if others believe me," but it was quite obvious that others' hostility towards him lessened afterward.
The person who had been being sarcastic towards him earlier had awkwardly handed him water.
soon.
The final match has begun.
Every match Bai Li played was arranged in advance with Xie Chen.
He originally wanted to combine singing and dancing, but his health wasn't good enough to keep it up.
After weighing the options, I finally chose to sing, specifically Xie Chen's songs.
When Xie Chen sings the same song, it makes people want to marry him on the spot!
Bai Li's youthful voice, full of energy, sounds like a sweet romance.
The results of the competition were announced on the spot.
Bai Li didn't care about the result; he had simply achieved his goal, bringing his work with the production team to a close.
"gentlemen."
Bai Li whispered to Xie Chen from below, "Did you just say that my older brother is coming back?"
"Um."
Xie Chen turned his head and said to him in a low voice amidst the noise, "Uncle Xie has cooked dinner at home. We'd like to invite my elder brother over for dinner tonight."
Bai Li nodded obediently.
“Lili”.
Can't you see? The cold-blooded sixth brother, who had been whispering in their ear, pulled his younger brother over again.
"Sit still."
Bai Liu lectured him, "There are still cameras filming, you can't be so intimate with other people."
Bai Li: "..."
Bai Li had a long face, and she was thinking of rebelling again.
Xie Chen glanced at Bai Liu, then thought of Li Li's older brother, and compared them.
My older brother is really good.
Tan Yi had something come up and couldn't make it to the scene, so the three of them were left to wait for the results.
After an unknown amount of time, the results of the final were announced.
Bai Liu and Xie Chen's eyes were fixed on the stage, waiting to hear the result.
Only Bai Li, taking advantage of the fact that Sixth Brother wasn't looking at him, was squeezing Xie Chen's big hand again.
"Champion, He Yu."
The host announced the results: Bai Li did not win the championship; the champion was He Yu, who was not very talkative.
He Yu is also an employee of Starlight Entertainment.
Upon hearing this name, Xie Chen's gaze darkened, as if he were pondering something.
Bai Li ultimately came in third place.
He was actually quite happy, because there was also a prize for third place!
The cat café is making money again!
Bai Li's eyes crinkled with satisfaction.
Xie Chen didn't say much from beginning to end, but as soon as the result was announced, he took out his phone and sent something to Xie Mao.
The other party replied very quickly.
No one knows what the two talked about, but Xie Chen asked Bai Li a serious question afterward—
"Lili, do you want to win the championship? If you win the championship, you will have to accept advertising contracts and... even greater exposure."
Bai Li tilted her head, puzzled, and said, "The results are already in."
"I am not the champion."
