Back in S city, I completely entered the life mode of eating, sleeping and writing, while Li Hua was still busy without a trace.

Within a few days, I received a courier, which contained a black card with my name printed on it, which was exactly the same as Li Hua's.

I called him: "Kaihua, you sent me a black card?!"

"There is no limit, you can buy whatever you want."

"No need, the money I earn is enough to spend." What's more, you paid me such a large copyright fee.

"Be obedient." He is particularly domineering in certain matters, "I don't have much time to accompany you, at least I can't neglect you materially."

"Uh... well then..." If it makes him happy to accept it, of course I can no longer refuse.

"Do you have time on Christmas Eve?"

"Are you free?" I heard that he seemed to be asking me out, and I couldn't hide my excitement.

His voice was covered with a smile: "A friend has a Christmas ball, would you like to accompany me?"

"Okay, okay!" I agreed without thinking, but got stuck again, "Do you want to wear an evening dress?"

"I'll give you the phone number of the shopping guide in a while, and let her take you to pick it up, and buy whatever you want with that card."

According to his words, I made an appointment with the lady who delivered the clothes for me last time, and she took me to a boutique that I didn't dare to set foot in before. A white mink fur shawl, a pair of silver high heels, and a silver handbag.

When I took out the black card and swiped it, the clerk showed a meaningful expression, and the six-figure bill made me shudder.

After thinking about it, I went to the jewelry store and bought a pair of diamond earrings and a necklace with my card.Although it hurts to spend the money, the friends Li Hua makes must be people from high society, and he must not be ashamed.

On Christmas Eve, I got into Li Hua's car, and seeing the appreciation in his eyes, I felt that everything was worth it.

"Pretty," he boasted.

I saw that he was wearing a red shirt, which matched my attire, and my heart beat a little faster.

Then his gaze stayed on my neck, pointing to my necklace and earrings: "This and this, you bought it yourself?"

"No, just swipe your card," I tried to get away with it, but seeing his eyes sharpen, I could only admit obediently, "Uh... I bought it myself."

"Ruoqi, if I do this next time, I will be angry."

He usually treats people mildly, but when he becomes serious, he is very dignified. I apologized timidly to him: "I'm sorry, I just think that buying these clothes has already cost me a lot of money..."

"Ruoqi, you need to update your concept of 'a lot of money'. Adding two zeros doesn't mean 'a lot of money' to me." He looked at me with a blank face and sighed softly, "Forget it , you get used to it slowly. Come here..."

The last two words were extremely gentle. I didn't know what he wanted to do, so I glanced at the driver in front of me apprehensively.

Li Hua had no choice but to stretch out his hand to embrace me, wrapping his hands behind my back, my heart stopped beating, and I hardly dared to breathe.

There was no skin-to-skin relationship as imagined. He took off the necklace around his neck and put something on it. I looked down and saw a row of diamonds shining brightly in the dark compartment.

"This will suit you." He admired his masterpiece with satisfaction.

Well, I do need to get used to it.

"Be there later, call me Leon."

"Leon? So your real name is Ou Kaihua, you're called Li Hua in the company, and you're called Leon in social situations?"

"Well, that's it." Thinking about it, he promised his parents that he would not show his face in public. If he was called by his name in such a place where people come and go, his identity would be exposed immediately. "But Leon is indeed my real name."

"Ok?"

"I'm from Hong Kong, and my ID card has an English name printed on it." He casually took out his wallet from his pocket and handed me the ID card in the interlayer.

His name on the ID card is "Ou Kaihua, AU, HoiWahLeon", and the ID photo next to him is unreasonably good-looking.In the photo, he is very young, with less sharp edges and corners than now, with a youthful look on his face, and a pair of beautiful eyes full of brilliance.

"It's so beautiful," I sighed sincerely, "When was the photo taken?"

"."

"There must be many girls who like you, right?"

He raised his eyelids as an answer, with a narcissistic and uninhibited look, coupled with that crisp formal suit, he was so handsome that he had no friends.

"God treats you very well."

"It's good for you," I heard him say before I could be complacent, "I let you meet me."

"Beautiful!"

I patted the ID card into his palm, but he put away my hand together. Through the ID card, I can still feel the temperature from his palm.

When I stepped into the banquet hall with Li Hua on my arm, it seemed like I entered a whole new world.The crystal chandelier illuminates a luxurious room, with fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples, wine and cups intertwined, and those thunderous names have become vivid faces in front of you.

"Who would you bring when you came to occasions where you needed to bring a female companion?"

"The secretary of the company will also bring its artists to help them expand their network."

In the banquet hall, I saw a few beautiful faces that often appear on TV, and I asked, "Who are there?"

"Lin Niwen, Xu Xinning, Zhen Hong..."

Lin Niwen has a hot body, Xu Xinning is noble and glamorous, Zhen Hong is playful and smart, all of them are beautiful, being Li Hua's girlfriend is too stressful.

I took a deep breath silently, forced myself to calm down, and followed Li Hua to meet the host of the ball—the owner of the securities company, Hao Youqian.

"Richard, great dance."

Compared to Li Hua's faint smile, Hao You smiled a lot more heartily: "Haha, everyone appreciates it. Who is this beautiful lady?"

"Fang Ruoqi," Li Hua introduced us, "a writer."

"I didn't expect that Ms. Fang is so beautiful. I thought she was an entertainer, but I didn't expect that she was a talented woman!" Hao Youqian shook my hand, and introduced the beautiful woman who looked familiar to him, "This is Ling Weiling."

The name is a bit impressive, it seems that it has become popular on the Internet recently because of shooting a few advertisements.

"Miss Fang, I didn't expect to see you here. I love your novels very much." Ling Weiling smiled flamboyantly, as expected of a model.

"Thank you, Miss Ling is more beautiful than I imagined." I reciprocate courtesy.

"Where is it, you are beautiful and talented, which is why people admire you. And I saw the news recently that your "Encounter" is about to be made into a movie, so amazing!" Ling Weiling said, turning her head to look at Hao Yougan.

Hao Youqian immediately understood: "Xiaoling also intends to take over film and television dramas. If Ms. Fang has a suitable role, I hope to give Xiaoling a chance."

"I'm just a writer, and the casting depends on the director, and the filming of "Encounter" will start in a few days, and the actors have already been decided." If there are opportunities for film and television adaptation of his works, I will definitely consider recommending Ms. Ling to the director."

"Okay, okay," Hao Yougan didn't know whether he was really happy or just talking about the scene, but he still smiled, "Xiaoling is still a newcomer and needs more training. It is naturally the best for Miss Fang to think of her."

When they went to greet other people, I took a long breath and asked Li Hua: "Are you really going to give her a role?"

"Don't take polite words in social situations seriously." He squeezed my hand, as if trying to calm my nervousness. "What you said just now is very good. It is the best result for everyone to leave room for it."

When he said that, I was relieved.

I followed Li Hua to chat with several celebrities in the business world, and watched him chatting and laughing with everyone who was familiar with strangers in a graceful manner, and felt that I knew a brand new him, noble and elegant like the most precious artwork, only Appreciate, don't get close.

"I'm going to talk to Richard and the others. You can go over there and get something to eat first, okay?" He asked me softly.

"Okay." I walked aside tactfully.

There was everything on the dining table, and everything was very attractive. I was afraid that I would not look good enough, so I only took the most convenient cakes and fruits.

"Hi." Ling Weiling also came to the dining table to get something to eat.

"Miss Ling." I greeted her kindly.

"Just call me Xiaoling." She just took some vegetables.

"Is it okay to eat this?"

"I'm used to it. To be a model, you need to keep in shape." She said indifferently, eating the tasteless vegetables without changing her expression.

"It's hard work."

"I can't help it, and I don't have a talent like you, so I can only rely on my face," she said, her eyes fell on the necklace around my neck, "Wow, your diamond necklace is so beautiful, so many diamonds Diamonds, at least ten carats?"

I froze for a moment: "I don't know..."

"Did Leon give it to you? It's a big deal... What does he do? He's so handsome and rich, and he looks very mysterious. He's from the political circle? A high-ranking official?" She asked curiously.

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, I didn't know how to answer the words. While hesitating, a man with stern eyes came towards me. The young man exuded an aristocratic atmosphere, handsome but serious.

He came to me, looked at me intently, and stretched out his hand: "Can I ask you to dance?"

The voice is clear and deep, like fine wine under the moonlight, intoxicating.

I have often seen him on TV recently, a business upstart who is regarded by thousands of women as their dream lover.

The young president of the Du Group, Du Sichen.
