Mu Xiaowan shook her head and said, "No, you are wrong. There are many beautiful things in this world that are more important than making money. I want to live a more open and comfortable life."

"Frank and free," Bai Rui repeated these two words and sneered, "How naive."

Then she added: "Naive and stupid, so stupid!"

Mu Xiaowan didn't say anything.

Naive? Stupid?

maybe.

But she thought, there are always some things in this world that she needs to insist on.

Even if this persistence prevents her from being as successful as the world believes, she has no regrets.

She just felt sorry that she had wasted such a good opportunity that Li Xiao had arranged for her...

Suddenly, a white hand appeared in front of her: "From today on, I am your agent and your comrade-in-arms."

Mu Xiaowan stared at Bai Rui blankly.

Bai Rui smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you take advantage of me."

"I don't need my artists to rely on such petty means to get opportunities."

Mu Xiaowan stared at Bai Rui blankly. Bai Rui raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why, you don't believe me?"

Mu Xiaowan said: "I feel like I'm going to be famous."

Bai Rui laughed: "Not bad, very smart."

After hearing what was said just now, Bai Rui did not think there was anything wrong with Mu Xiaowan's ambition. Instead, he admired her very much.

The entertainment industry is a place of fame and fortune. In this circle, you must not only stick to the bottom line, but also be motivated. Otherwise, no matter how good your qualifications are, you will not be popular.

Mu Xiaowan just happens to possess all these characteristics, and what's even more rare is that she also has an excellent background and qualifications.

but……

Bai Rui's gaze lingered on Mu Xiaowan's palm, and he said sternly, "I still have to criticize you. As an artist, appearance is extremely important, and protecting yourself is even more important. But you actually let yourself get hurt so easily."

Her tone was very stern, and this was also her reminder to Mu Xiaowan.

Mu Xiaowan looked at her palm and didn't make any excuses. She just lowered her head and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Sister Bai. I will pay attention to it."

Just then, a small figure rushed in from outside the door.

The little boy hugged Bai Rui's thighs and called out "Mom" sweetly.

Looking at the little boy, Bai Rui's eyes suddenly softened. She touched the boy's hair and said, "Where are you going to play? You are running so hard that you are sweating."

The little boy said sweetly, "I took a walk outside the teahouse, but unfortunately I didn't see the amusement park..."

As he spoke, the little boy looked disappointed.

Bai Rui couldn't help laughing and said, "How about letting Auntie accompany you to the playground this afternoon?"

"I can go to the playground! I can go to the playground!" The little boy jumped happily. Then he noticed Mu Xiaowan standing beside him and asked with some surprise: "Big sister, why are you here?"

Bai Rui asked in surprise: "Baby, do you know this big sister?"

The middle-aged woman at the side said, "Just now, when the young master ran out of the teahouse, he tripped and fell down the stairs. This young lady caught the young master without caring about her own safety and got herself injured. I wanted to send this young lady to the hospital, but she refused to go..."

Bai Rui said: "You were injured while saving my son, so why didn't you say it?"

Mu Xiaowan said: "When I saved him, I didn't know he was your son. And I think what you said makes sense, Sister Bai. As an artist, I have to learn to protect myself from getting hurt."

"So I'll have to trouble Sister Bai to help me sign up for a fighting class, so that when I'm in danger, I can not only save others but also protect myself."

Bai Rui immediately looked at Mu Xiaowan.

After a moment, she finally smiled: "Yes, you are indeed a good candidate. It seems that Li Xiao's vision is correct this time!"

When Mu Xiaowan heard Bai Rui mention Li Xiao, her heart was moved.

She thought that she was a girl favored by the world after all, otherwise how could she have such a good sister like Song Mingyi, and how could she meet such a good person like Li Xiao...

Suddenly at this moment, she missed Li Xiao very much.

She wanted to see him...

But Li Xiao was gone. He was in Beijing, and she didn't even have a photo of him...

Perhaps the only thing I can do is to allow myself to miss Li Xiao.

"Ah!"

Li Xiao sneezed several times in succession.

Madam Li said worriedly, "What happened to Old Seven? Is he sick again? Go call a doctor!"

Seeing his mother trying to call a doctor, Li Xiao quickly pulled her back and said, "It's okay, Mom. I'm fine."

"You won't sneeze if there's nothing wrong!" Old Madam Li glared at Li Xiao disapprovingly: "Don't be so stubborn!"

Ah Sen said in a mean way, "Maybe Master Qi is not trying to be brave, but someone is missing him!"

"Shut up and stop talking nonsense!"

Seeing this, Madam Li became interested. She called Ah Sen over and said, "Tell me, who misses our Ah Qi? Is it a girl?"

Asen saw Li Xiao looking at him, and pursed his lips and said, "Madam, I dare not say it. Master Qi won't let me say it!"

Madam Li said, "He is my son. What's the point if he doesn't let you speak? As his mother, I want you to speak! Tell me what the girl looks like!"

Li Xiao said: "Asen, come here!"

Asen: "Madam, I really don't dare to say it. Master Qi is very fierce. I'm leaving first."

Asen hurriedly left the living room. Old Madam Li was furious: "This bastard is actually trying to keep a secret from his own mother!"

The eldest sister-in-law of the Li family came down from upstairs at this time. Seeing that Old Madam Li was angry, she hurriedly asked, "Who made you angry? Let me teach him a lesson!"

"Who else could it be? Of course it's that bastard Li Xiao! He has a girl he likes!"

Mrs. Li was very surprised when she heard this: "What! Lao Qi has a girl he likes? This is a great thing! You are so angry, is it because the girl Lao Qi likes is not good enough?"

Madam Li shook her head and said, "I don't know. Asen just let it slip. When I was about to ask, Li Xiao angrily took her away! I haven't gotten any information about the girl at all!"

Madam Li was getting angrier and angrier as she spoke. Her seventh son was already over 40 years old. Others of his age would have their children getting married! But he was still single!

I finally showed signs of love, but I still dared to hide it!

Mrs. Li said, "Old Seven has been under our noses in the capital, and we haven't seen him get close to that girl. It seems that he most likely met that girl in Haicheng!"

"I'll call Ming Yi later and ask her to help check. As long as the girl has a clean background and good character, nothing else matters!"

Madam Li nodded: "Yes! You are right! Anyway, with the current power of our Li family, we don't need a marriage alliance. As long as Li Xiao likes it, it's fine!"

Then Madam Li sighed and said, "My eldest daughter-in-law, if the seventh son can really bring me a daughter-in-law, I will go there immediately and die with my eyes closed!"
