Chapter 301
Just like him and Fang Zhu.
It was her, he told himself. He had decided on her in this lifetime.
Of course, Yan Huan had no idea of Lu Yi’s decision. She played around with her phone by her side and until now, she was still a little confused. She thought that she would need to take a long time to convince him, but he ended up agreeing so easily. He didn’t ask anything or went out to find anything. He didn’t care which movie she wanted to invest in and had agreed.
Wasn’t he afraid that she would suck him dry?
However, this unconditional trust that he had given her left a sour feeling in her heart.
Lu Yi, do you think I would have been where I was in my past life if I had met you then?
Before long, Yan Huan heard a message from her phone. She opened it and it was a transfer message. She had a good $50 million.
She blinked before pouting, “Lu Yi, aren’t you afraid I will waste this money?”
She took out another $30 million herself to make up $80 million. The funds were there and the day before the movie was about to be filmed, some big corporations were looking to investing in it. However, the movie no longer lacked investment and Yan Huan had gotten a share of it first. It was going to be a double victory for both her and Lu Yi.
When Lu Yi returned home, he carried a fat cat back with him.
Yan Huan needed to film this movie for a long time and she had thrown Little Bean to him again. Even though he had decided it was going to be her, she was still young and if she wanted to film, she could do so. He would wait for her.
As for how long he would need to wait, that was undecided.
Ye Shuyun carried Little Bean from his arm before scratching his head. “I want to see how you can eat my fishes next time. The fish tanks are sealed. No matter how hard your head is, you wouldn’t be able to smash the glass.”
When Little Bean saw the fish in the fish tank, he jumped on her leg and leaped towards the top of the fish tank. However, a cat is still a cat. He might have remembered eating some delicious fish here but he couldn’t grab any fish out this time no matter how hard he tried.
“Meow…”
He opened his teary eyes, giving off an incredibly pitiful look.
Ye Shuyun was delighted upon seeing this.
A cat is still a cat, she couldn’t possibly fight with him, could she?
It was at this moment she thought of something.
“I heard you transferred some money to a personal account?” Lu Yi had tens of millions in his private account and this was only one of them. She had quite a lot herself too as well as some left by Grandad Lu to his grandsons. Those could only be taken out when his grandsons had families.
Lu Yi’s position wasn’t too low but he didn’t care much about this usually. This was mainly because he was an attorney and was always cautious. He moved about on the low and wouldn’t do something unrealistic.
Even his clothes, he bought a few suits a year. He had a few attorney suits that he dressed in and that was the outfit he was most commonly in.
Lu Yi didn’t use money in many places, but he had others invest them for him. He would collect the money every year. Only this time, it was weird. He lost tens of millions in his account overnight, what did he use them for?
This was her son’s money and she didn’t care too much. She just wanted to ask.
“I invested it,” Lu Yi grabbed Little Bean who had run over. He didn’t lie to Ye Shuyun but he didn’t clarify what he invested the money on either.
Ye Shuyun didn’t ask upon hearing this. She took over Little Bean from her son as she and the cat lazed on the sofa. They spent a boring afternoon together watching television.
As the main investor and the main lead, Yan Huan had already packed her luggage and herself and stayed near the set. The movie started filming without much ceremony and Director Huang just treated everyone to a meal before filming commenced the next day. They drove to a far away village and prepared to film there. Of course, they found quite a few extras to make this comedy as realistic as possible.
As she had experience filming a comedic role previously, Yan Huan’s understanding of Flower had surpassed the limits that she had set for herself previously. She had been getting herself into the role the past few days and she had a generic idea of how Flower was as a character and she knew how to act.
After she did her make-up, her lips were cracked, and her face was black with soot. The goddess of her time had become a village girl. Even as a village girl, she still looked quite pretty.
The story started from here.
The first scene started filming and Flower ran out of the house holding onto her head. Her mother was holding a whip in her hand preparing to beat her. She had a petty look on her face as she jumped here and there. She had taken a few lashings.
Each time she took a beating, she looked like a chicken. It left like one laughing with tears.
Yan Huan didn’t care about her image at all. She was a beauty but she was now acting foolish, thoroughly foolish.
Someone asked, “Mother Flower, why are you beating Flower?”
Mother Flower scrunched her face and cried. She asked herself why she had such a hard life to give birth to someone dumb; someone who only knew how to eat. A pig could be fed and sold for its meat but she had to give birth to a foolish and dumb girl. She took a basket of eggs from the house and out of nowhere, wanted to try to let them hatch. The entire basket of eggs were destroyed because of her.
Flower wasn’t happy at all.
“Mum, if you hadn’t beat me, would the eggs have been crushed? If the chicken in our house had laid eggs that would hatch, I wouldn’t have placed them into the stove. Was I wrong?”
“You are still talking? Still talking?” Mother Flower was so angry that she started running around beating Flower in the courtyard with her whip.
Flower wasn’t clever and was a little dumb. Everyone in the village knew this. No, everyone outside the village knew this too. She was almost 20 and was almost an old lady already but she hadn’t found a man yet.
Mother Flower stayed at home and cried every day, saying that she had given birth to her enemy.
After that, Flower’s brother had to go to school but as the family didn’t have much money, Mother Flower had to think hard to find ways to earn money. She ended up placing her money onto Flower.
How was Flower willing to? Why must she be sold for her brother to go to school. What was more, she was to be sold to a man whose wife had passed away. If she married into that family, would she still be able to survive?
She wouldn’t marry at all cost. In the end, Mother Flower locked her up and wanted her to marry no matter what. Flower was desperate and had scratched deep marks into the door.
