"From today on, Liu Ran is my adopted daughter, Bai Changxun. You must respect Liu Ran as you treat the two young ladies, otherwise the family law will serve you!"
Father Bai gave the order, and the housekeeper and attendants responded quickly. Then they all faced Gu Liangyan and called out "Miss" respectfully.
It was not until a long time later that Gu Liangyan accidentally learned that the reason why Bai's father suddenly accepted her as his adopted daughter was actually Li Jingyuan's decision, in the hope that she could feel the warmth of her relatives.
"Great, from today on, I have two sisters!"
Bai Xinyao jumped up happily, suddenly realizing that Li Xiu was beside her, she smiled awkwardly and sat back down in her seat dignifiedly.
"congratulations."
Li Xiu gave Li Jingyuan a meaningful look, raised his glass, nodded to Gu Liangyan, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Thanks."
Gu Liangyan nodded gratefully and picked up the wine glass, but Li Jingyuan snatched it away.
"Have a meal."
Li Jingyuan placed the cut steak next to Gu Liangyan's hand, reminded him softly, and asserted his sovereignty domineeringly.
Gu Liangyan smiled awkwardly and tried to snatch the wine glass from Li Jingyuan's hand, but the man nimbly dodged it.
"Except for drinking, everything depends on you."
Gu Liangyan had no choice but to snort coldly. She didn't want to say anything. She took up the steak as if to vent her anger and chewed it vigorously.
"Sister Liu Ran, I want to go on a trip to relax, can you accompany me?"
Halfway through the banquet, Bai's father left the banquet early for some reason. Bai Xinyao suddenly made a suggestion, which caught Gu Liangyan off guard.
Her identity will be exposed one day. Before that, she must think of a perfect plan to ensure An'er's safety. She is not in the mood to travel.
"If Miss Xinyao doesn't suggest it, I can help you two plan your travel route. In order to prevent you two from getting lost, I can also act as a guide."
Li Xiu smiled mysteriously, raised his eyebrows, and shifted his gaze from Gu Liangyan to Bai Xinyao, "As for the reward? Just exchange it for Miss Xinyao's signed photo."
The man's warm smile made Bai Xinyao's heart beat. Bai Xinyao nodded shyly, trying hard to restrain her inner excitement. She looked at Gu Liangyan pitifully and blinked with ulterior motives.
"Sister Liu Ran is the best, just promise me!"
Gu Liangyan still hesitated, but finally couldn't bear to see Bai Xinyao disappointed, and nodded in agreement. As soon as Gu Liangyan finished speaking, there was a crisp sound, and the wine glass in Li Jingyuan's hand broke into several pieces.
"Li...Master Li, do you want to go too?"
Bai Xinyao swallowed nervously and asked tentatively. After feeling the cold air around the man, she looked at Gu Liangyan for help.
"He did not want."
Gu Liangyan glanced at the man warningly. After realizing that the man was unhappy, she reminded him in a low voice: "You said you would rely on me for everything except drinking. Are you lying to me again?"
Li Jingyuan remained silent, silently finishing the steak on his plate, and never lost his temper again until the dinner was over.
Lie to her? How could he bear it...
Chu Qiaoqiao's image plummeted, and all the products she endorsed were removed from the shelves. The Li Group took Chu Qiaoqiao to court for breach of contract.
There are only two options before the female Chu Qiaoqiao, one is to pay liquidated damages, and the other is to be sentenced to jail. In order to avoid the pain of jail, Chu Qiaoqiao sold off her property, mortgaged her jewelry and luxury cars, worked hard, and even went to the extent of asking for money.
The underworld borrowed money at usury and finally paid off the penalty within the time limit, but it was ruined and worthless.
