Chapter 151 They are competing
The lights in the room were turned on, making it much brighter than before.
Li Rongsen was sitting on the sofa playing with his camera, while Yan Qingqiu was admiring the red wine on the shelf. He was not interested in the red wine, but there was really nothing else to play with here, so he was just killing time.
The man standing beside the sofa was a little nervous, with his head lowered and the expression of a good student. He said, "That's all."
"Have you been taking pictures with this camera all the time?" Li Rongsen asked him. He had looked through all the photos in the camera and could hardly see An Yan. That was why the curtains were always drawn at her house, and An Yan was often not at home, so it was difficult to see her.
The man said, "This is the only one."
"Are there any other people?" Li Rongsen asked.
"There are eight households like me in this building. We came here specifically to take pictures of Anyan." He confessed honestly.
Even Yan Qingqiu was stunned. He asked, "What's the benefit of this? Why are you taking pictures of her?"
"It's just to find some material that can be used, such as bringing some men home." He answered in a low voice.
"Who are they?" Li Rongsen asked.
"You are here."
Yan Qingqiu frowned and said to Li Rongsen, "You should stop going to An Yan's house. You almost ruined her reputation."
"No, I rarely go to her house." Li Rongsen sneered.
The man continued, "It's mainly about private life, or other topics for entertainment, but so far I haven't found anything."
"Who told you to do this?" Li Rongsen asked again, taking out the disc from the camera.
"Someone spread the word that anyone who could capture footage of An Yan's private life, or of her being overly intimate with someone, could be exchanged for money."
"How much in exchange?" Li Rongsen frowned. He thought that there must be someone behind this, and the price offered must be very high, otherwise who would be willing to do such a thing.
"A photo with content costs five million, and many people want to do this," he said frankly.
Li Rongsen leaned back on the sofa and said nothing. "Do you know who spread the rumor?"
"I don't know, but everyone says so. It has become an open secret in the journalist circle," he said.
"How about this, if you can clear out everyone here tomorrow, I'll give you five million." Li Rongsen said as he stood up.
His eyes lit up and he asked, "Really?"
"Of course." Li Rongsen was not one to joke around casually. He added, "But you still have to do something for me. You will definitely get some benefits."
The man immediately showed that he was listening attentively.
Li Rongsen whispered a few words into his ear, then said to Yan Qingqiu, "Let's go, we can go back now."
Yan Qingqiu put down the red wine in his hand and followed Li Rongsen out. After he got into the car, he asked him, "What did you say to him just now?"
"Give someone a taste of their own medicine." Li Rongsen only said these few words to him.
Yan Qingqiu didn't ask any more questions, thinking that Li Rongsen really cared about An Yan.
The weather has been good for the past two days. During the weekend, the sun was shining brightly and it felt a bit hot. Fortunately, there was wind, so it wasn't too stuffy.
Old Master Li asked his servants to start preparing cakes, desserts, fruit tea, etc. early in the morning.
Old man Bai Qingtian also arrived early. He hurried over after lunch. He saw a large sunshade tent, a long sofa, a long wooden table, and an armchair set up in the garden, which was decorated in a rather pastoral style.
Mr. Li asked, "Do you think this arrangement looks like what young people do?"
"I thought someone was getting married." Bai Qingtian laughed heartily and pointed at the pink European moonflowers above the archway. "These flowers are planted well. Now they are useful."
"Of course, I have carefully planted them for many years. Now I can finally take care of them myself and don't have to watch the servants watering and fertilizing them." After saying this, Grandpa Li lifted one of his legs.
"An Yan's medical skills are really high. I asked her to help me check today to see what I need to pay attention to." Bai Qingtian said.
Mr. Li motioned him to sit down and said, "Let's wait here for them. I've asked Rong Sen to pick up An Yan."
"Why hasn't Rongsen found a girlfriend yet? Don't always indulge in your old love. You should accept new relationships." Bai Qingtian mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally.
"Your Bai Shichen isn't anxious, so why should he be anxious?"
"I am indeed very worried about Shichen's marriage. I plan to find him a girlfriend, but then I think Rongsen needs a girlfriend even more, right?" Bai Qingtian said.
"Who are you going to arrange for?" asked Mr. Li.
"I have a list of names. They are all noble ladies from famous families who are perfect matches for Rongsen." Bai Qingtian took out a red book and handed it to Mr. Li, saying, "Look, they are all good girls."
Old Master Li took it and looked at it carefully. He found that they were all little princesses with good family backgrounds. They were definitely a good match, but he was not very satisfied.
Bai Qingtian said, "Look at this one. She's beautiful, runs her own company, and has a gentle personality. She's a perfect match for Rongsen."
"Why are you suddenly worried about things that I should be worried about?" Old Master Li asked him this deliberately, thinking that this old man was quite smart. If he could arrange Li Rongsen first, no one would be able to snatch An Yan away.
"You and I are brothers, we shouldn't worry about each other." Bai Qingtian said as a matter of course.
"That's true. Then I also have to worry about Shichen's marriage. I want to find him a suitable girlfriend as soon as possible and let them get married earlier." Old Master Li said this deliberately.
"Don't worry, don't worry. My family's descendants are not in a hurry." Bai Qingtian was afraid that Mr. Li would ruin his own plans, otherwise why would he worry about Li Rongsen.
At this time, Li Rongsen came with An Yan.
An Yan said, "Good morning, old gentlemen."
"Oh, my little miracle doctor, we finally meet again. Look how beautiful you are today. I almost can't recognize you." Bai Qingtian immediately stood up from his chair to look at her, smiling as if he had seen a living treasure.
"Many are missing. Let me take your pulse." An Yan said as she put her hand on Bai Qingtian's wrist. After a moment, she said, "You're fine. You're in good health. Stay cheerful. I'll prescribe two more pills for you."
"Okay, okay, that's great." Bai Qingtian nodded repeatedly and added, "I would be very happy if you could come to my house more often."
"Alas, people can't be so excited every day. It's bad for the body." Old Master Li deliberately contradicted Bai Qingtian. He didn't want to do what he wanted. He wanted to find An Yan as his grandson's wife. It was a wishful thinking.
An Yan treated Mr. Li again and gave him an acupuncture on his leg as usual.
Mr. Li said, "An Yan, I have prepared a gift for you today. You must accept it."
"I have also prepared a gift." Bai Qingtian immediately asked someone to bring the gift up.
At this time, the housekeeper came in with two people, Bai Shichen and Xiao Ji.
Old Master Li did not invite Bai Shichen over. He heard Bai Qingtian say, "An Yan, let me introduce my grandson to you, Shichen. You two can become good friends, and then..."
"They have known each other for a long time, so there is no need for introductions." Old Master Li interrupted him sarcastically.
Li Rongsen felt that the smell was not right, as if the two old men were competing with each other.
