The "elder sister" referred to here is naturally Yang Jingying.
Since choosing her side, Gao Liyuan had given up the idea of keeping everything to herself.
Yang Jingying would take the lion's share, while Gao Liyuan would settle for a smaller portion.
The more outstanding a woman is, the less likely she is to easily fall for a man.
The fact that Xu Mo is liked by so many capable women must mean he possesses some unique charm.
So Gao Liyuan felt that getting a share of the pie wasn’t a bad deal.
Soon, the call connected.
"It's Liyuan, what's up?"
"Elder Sister, it's like this: I managed to trick Lin Fan into getting arrested again today. I'll keep him tied up for the next few days. But how’s the progress on Shen Manni’s side? If we end up doing all this work only for Zhou Qiaoqiao to benefit, wouldn’t we be at a huge loss?"
Yang Jingying’s willow-like eyebrows arched slightly. Letting Zhou Qiaoqiao benefit?
What kind of daydream was that?
Clearly, Yang Jingying had been there first.
As for Lin Fan’s situation, Gao Liyuan had done well.
"I heard Zhou Qiaoqiao intercepted her."
"Ah??? What do we do now?"
Gao Liyuan panicked.
This Zhou Qiaoqiao was quite formidable.
So hard to deal with.
"No need to rush. The boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge," Yang Jingying reassured her.
But in her mind, she was already planning her next move.
No rush?! Elder Sister, are you even reliable?
I was hoping to follow you and get a little something out of this.
Gao Liyuan’s face was filled with bitterness. "Elder Sister, you really need to keep a close eye on this! No matter who benefits, it can’t be Zhou Qiaoqiao first!"
A double entendre.
It would be best if she could benefit first.
Hehe-----------
Yang Jingying nodded solemnly, "Understood!"
She didn’t get along with Zhou Qiaoqiao.
She definitely wouldn’t let her get the upper hand.
After that, the two women chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
Yang Jingying rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought.
"What method can I use to trick Xu Mo into coming to my place?"
That’s right!
This was what Yang Jingying had been pondering all along!
As long as she could lure him back,
whether it was through drugging him or using force,
Yang Jingying didn’t care.
Only what was in her hands was real.
Everything else was just fleeting clouds.
Meanwhile, in different places, similar scenes were playing out.
In the Han family, the Shen family, and the homes of other female leads.
At the Hilton Hotel,
in a presidential suite,
Lin An'an had just stepped out of the shower, her hair still damp, her delicate cheeks flushed.
After filming with Xu Mo these past few days,
Lin An'an had felt her heart skip a beat several times!
Her heart raced uncontrollably.
Even now,
Lin An'an was so deep into her role that she couldn’t tell if her feelings for Xu Mo were because of the script or if she genuinely liked him.
In any case, her mind was a mess.
Lin An'an’s slender fingers tapped rapidly on her phone screen,
replying to a message from Li Jiaxin.
Li Jiaxin: Are you free for dinner tomorrow night?
Lin An'an: Aren’t you busy? I’ve been swamped all day, just got a break.
Li Jiaxin: Not busy at all, Miss Big Star~
Lin An'an: ----------
Comparing yourself to others is just frustrating.
Li Jiaxin: Wuwuwu---------- Miss Big Star, you’re not keeping your word. Didn’t you promise to treat me to dinner last time? Do you only have a seven-second memory?
Lin An'an paused. That was true.
Her cheeks grew even redder.
How embarrassing!
Lin An'an: Alright, alright, I’ll treat you the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow really won’t work.
Li Jiaxin: (*^▽^*) Sure, sure, I get it. Miss Big Star is a busy person. I’m just grateful you can spare some time to meet.
"Hehehe-------- I’m not afraid of you showing up, I’m afraid you won’t."
Li Jiaxin licked her slightly dry lips.
Under normal circumstances,
the chances of Lin An'an willingly complying were close to zero.
So Li Jiaxin decided to play dirty.
She would spike the drink with something strong.
Knock her out.
Once she was unconscious, she wouldn’t know anything.
When she woke up and found herself in bed with her,
they were both girls, after all.
Lin An'an probably wouldn’t suspect that Li Jiaxin was a lesbian so quickly.
♪(^∇^*)
Meanwhile, elsewhere,
everyone had their own troubles.
Xu Mo was no exception.
"Mom, what’s the point of this dinner? Whether I’m there or not doesn’t make a difference."
"No! You must be there tomorrow! I’ve already discussed it with Zhou Qiaoqiao’s parents."
"I’m not going, I’m not going! I have so much to do tomorrow!"
Xu Mo brushed it off.
The phone was snatched away.
Xu Fuqiang’s angry voice came through.
"You brat! If you dare not show up tomorrow, your allowance is cut! You’ll only get ten million a month! You decide!"
Gasp!!!!!!!!!!
Xu Mo inhaled sharply.
Damn!
He was speechless.
How could anyone survive on just ten million?
With private jets and yachts to maintain?
Damn it!
To think that he, the young master of Magic City’s Xu family,
had fallen to the point of only getting ten million a month in allowance.
If word got out, he’d be the laughingstock of all the other rich kids.
But Xu Mo didn’t want to beg for money.
"Ahem--- Dad, it’s not about the money."
"Then what is it about?"
"You know me---"
"I heard you’re not chasing Shen Manni anymore, is that true?"
"---Ah, nothing escapes you."
"Enough nonsense, kid. Your mom told me our family lost a lot of money because of the crude oil investment. This mistake might cost us our position as Magic City’s top family! Your mom and I think it’s not a bad thing. Losing money is one thing, but securing a future daughter-in-law is more important."
Xu Fuqiang shared his perspective.
Children have their own fortunes.
He and Su Ting had done enough.
They’d weathered many storms and come out stronger.
They’d grown indifferent to many things.
Money isn’t something you bring with you when you’re born or take with you when you die.
What they really liked was Zhou Qiaoqiao’s character.
The Xu family was declining?
Being demoted to the ranks of the four major families?
Good!
A great thing!
Why didn’t you two mention this earlier?
Why!!!!!!!!
Xu Mo took a deep breath and grinned. "I think it’s a good thing too!"
"Good! Then it’s settled! You’d better show up tomorrow, or else!!"
"Wait, that’s not what I meant, umm--- hold on, You Yi, cough------"
Xu Fuqiang’s eyelid twitched.
No wonder he didn’t want to get married!
Once he broke things off with Shen Manni, this brat was back to his old ways.
It hadn’t even been a few days, and he was already messing around again.
Xu Fuqiang had thought Xu Mo would calm down after being hurt.
At least he wouldn’t be as reckless as before.
Xu Fuqiang was wrong.
Dead wrong.
In fact, he felt this brat had become even worse.
While on the phone,
he was shamelessly fooling around!!!
Xu Fuqiang’s face darkened, and he dropped a final warning.
"Brat! Clean up your mess and remember to wipe your mouth! And if you don’t show up tomorrow, you’re dead!!!!!"
Beep beep-----------
The call ended.
On the other end,
Xu Mo was on the verge of tears. He wanted to explain,
but how could he explain this situation?!!!!
He’d just have to wait until it was over.
Afterward----------
Xu Mo looked at You Yi, who was sitting on the couch watching TV.
He couldn’t help but speak up.
"You Yi, can you please be more mindful of the situation next time? I mean, when I’m busy, can you delay a bit? It’s not like I’m refusing you."
His tone was full of resentment.
This You Yi was so punctual!!!
Would waiting a little longer kill her?
Now,
Xu Mo couldn’t clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Satisfied?!!!!!!
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
