What's wrong with being a salted fish?

After hanging up the phone with Lin Zhuo, Wan Linlin paced around the room. She had no memory of what she had done after being drunk. She didn't know what good thing she had done, nor did she know how she came to Bai Li's house.

But none of this matters, her mind is full of: Hey, she is at the beautiful woman’s house now!

Thinking of this, Wan Linlin suddenly reacted. She quickly lowered her head and smelled herself. She was relieved when she found that there was no smell of alcohol.

She couldn't imagine herself, reeking of alcohol, throwing herself on a beautiful woman. Seriously, she would really find a hole to crawl into if that happened.

Wan Linlin stood in front of the full-length mirror, rubbing her chin in a slightly obscene manner: But it could also be because I changed my clothes? After all, what she was wearing was obviously pajamas.

It was pink and soft, which didn't suit her carefree look.

Especially when Wan Linlin thought that it might be Bai Li who washed and changed her clothes, she couldn't help drooling.

Damn! Why am I so wretched?

Wan Linlin stood in front of the mirror and suddenly realized that she should go and say thank you first.

So she rushed into the bathroom in the room, quickly washed up and came out to look for her clothes, but when she opened the closet she found it was empty except for a few hangers.

Wan Linlin was wondering where the clothes Bai Li bought for her yesterday went.

She searched the room in vain, so she tiptoed to open the door and prepared to look for Bai Li first.

"Are you awake?"

Wan Linlin had just closed the door gently when she was startled by a sudden voice from behind.

She covered her chest, whose heart was beating faster due to fright, and slowly turned her head to find Bai Li sitting on the small open-air balcony at the end of the corridor, drinking tea and reading a book.

It was she who greeted Wan Linlin just now.

Wan Linlin smiled awkwardly: "Haha, yes, good morning."

It’s a little after nine o’clock, so it should be quite early.

Bai Li thought her thief look was a little cute, so he put down the book in his hand and walked towards her: "I thought you were going to sleep until noon."

“…” was guessed correctly.

If it weren't for the fact that she was at Bai Li's house, she would have definitely taken a nap when it was past nine o'clock.

"Are you hungry? I'll take you to the kitchenette to eat something." Bai Li took her hand.

Wan Linlin's face began to turn red uncontrollably: Holding hands again, hehe!

Bai Li took her to the small kitchen on this floor and cooked mushroom and chicken porridge in the morning, accompanied by fried dumplings and steamed buns.

After asking Wan Linlin about her preferences, Bai Li served her a bowl of porridge, took a plate of dumplings, and motioned for her to eat quickly.

Then Bai Li sat next to her: "You can fill your stomach. It will be lunch soon."

Wan Linlin nodded: "Did you eat here this morning too?"

Bai Li shook her head: "I ate with my parents in the restaurant downstairs."

Wan Linlin's expression froze, and she replied sullenly, "Oh."

I feel a bit ashamed.

That’s right, after all, their family backgrounds don’t match, alas.

Bai Li seemed to see what Wan Linlin was thinking, and pinched her face and smiled: "What are you thinking about? I was planning to introduce you to my parents, but an unexpected guest came, and I guess you don't want to see him."

After listening to Bai Li's explanation, Wan Linlin was happy. She lowered her head and took a sip of porridge: "Uninvited guest? Who is it?"

"Xu Wenhao. He came early in the morning and even had a free breakfast at my house." At this point, Bai Li rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Early in the morning, when she went downstairs for breakfast, she found Xu Wenhao sitting on the sofa in the living room. It was really unlucky because he scared her away her sleepiness.

Wan Linlin opened her mouth wide: "What is he doing here?"

"I listened and it seems like he's planning to have my dad invest in him."

"Ah?" Wan Linlin didn't understand: "Why are you looking for your father?" Doesn't he have one himself?

Bai Li didn't know either: "Who knows, maybe his father doesn't want to."

Wan Linlin snorted, "His father himself didn't invest, which means it must not be a good project."

Bai Li covered her mouth and laughed: "You are right."

She also felt that it was definitely not a good project. Could Xu Wenhao be so kind as to help her family make money together?

Bai Li lowered her head and glanced at her phone: "Let's go to the movies after dinner. He should be leaving soon, and then we can go downstairs for lunch. I don't want to see him." She had already turned on the home theater in advance.

Of course Wan Linlin would not refuse. She nodded vigorously with the bun in her mouth, and then she remembered something: "By the way, where are my clothes?"

"Take it and wash it."

"What about the new one?"

"I've cleared the cloakroom. You won't be going out today and you don't need to change clothes. You can stay at my house for another day." Bai Li invited her.

That’s great!

But Wan Linlin felt that she still had to be reserved, so she asked shyly, "Will this bother you too much?"

Bai Li shook her head: "No." Then she held Wan Linlin's hand, "By the way, you can sleep with me tonight, so we can chat."

! ! ! !

Wan Linlin screamed in her heart: Is this an invitation? This is definitely an invitation, right?

Wan Linlin blushed and nodded frantically. She was willing to have a long chat with the beautiful woman.

After a simple meal, Bai Li took Wan Linlin to the home theater on the third floor, where she carefully selected a horror movie.

Before starting, she asked Wan Linlin if she was afraid. Wan Linlin patted her chest and said that she was not afraid at all, which made Bai Li relieved. Bai Li said that she was afraid of these things, but she really wanted to watch them. Fortunately, Wan Linlin was not afraid.

After the movie started, Bai Li leaned on Wan Linlin and held her arm tightly to find a sense of security.

Wan Linlin patted Bai Li's hands and smelled the faint fragrance in the air, which was the scent of Bai Li's perfume; she was so happy that she lost her mind.

So Lin Zhuo, who was playing games at home, suddenly received a message from Wan Linlin.

He took a look, speechless, and then because he was distracted his game character was beaten to death.

[Sister! You don’t know how happy I am! ]

Lin Zhuo looked at the gray screen in front of him, his mouth twitching: I don’t want to know your happiness at all!

......

"I was so scared. I didn't expect that kind mother-in-law was actually a bad person!"

After watching the movie, Bai Li was still unable to come out of it. She still held Wan Linlin's arm and discussed the plot with her.

"Yes, but she is doing it to avenge her granddaughter. I can understand that." Wan Linlin comforted her.

This movie is a typical domestic movie. There must be a murderer behind the scenes, but the atmosphere is indeed very good, the plot is very coherent, and the Chinese horror part is also well done. It is a pretty good movie.

Bai Li pressed the elevator button: "Let's watch it later. I have saved up a lot, but I haven't found anyone to watch it with me."

Could Wan Linlin refuse? She didn't even need to think, she just said, "Okay."

The two of them took the elevator to the first floor and it was time for lunch.

As soon as they walked into the restaurant, both of them had unhappy expressions.

Because Xu Wenhao was also sitting at the dining table, waiting for the servants to serve the food.

Wan Linlin clearly heard Bai Li's complaint: "Why hasn't he left yet!"

Yes. Wan Linlin also thought: How can he be so shameless?

Xu Wenhao's eyes were full of Bai Li, and he subconsciously ignored Wan Linlin. He didn't know what they were thinking. He was obviously very comfortable and even enthusiastically called Bai Li to come and sit down, as if she thought this was his home.

But when he saw Wan Linlin next to Bai Li, Xu Wenhao's expression froze. Wan Linlin felt that his face was full of an expression of "Why is she here too?"

Ah.

Wan Linlin smiled contemptuously and took Bai Li to sit opposite him.

At this time, Bai Li's parents also came. Bai's father first pulled out a chair for Bai's mother, and then sat down in the main seat himself.

Father Bai greeted Wan Linlin with a kind smile on his face: "Linlin, right? I heard Xiaoli tell you about you. You are really pretty. Thank you for being friends with our Xiaoli. Just treat it as your own home."

Bai's mother also nodded with a smile: "Yes, you are welcome to come and play with Xiaoli."

This made Bai Li feel a little embarrassed, so she quickly asked her parents to stop talking; Wan Linlin couldn't suppress her smile beside her, so she nodded quickly to show that she would, of course.

The atmosphere here was quite joyful, but someone wanted to spoil the mood.

Xu Wenhao snorted coldly: "It is her blessing to be friends with Xiaoli."

Wan Linlin found it unbelievable. She tilted her head and looked at Xu Wenhao with a puzzled expression: Brother, from what position do you say this?

Bai Li's expression was not good either: "Who I am friends with has nothing to do with you? It's not enough to get breakfast, you also want lunch. Don't you have room for you to eat at your house?"

Xu Wenhao was a little flustered: "That's not what I meant, I just said that you are so outstanding..."

"Linlin is also very good, and she has a good vision, isn't she?" When Bai Li said this, he looked at Xu Wenhao sharply, as if he was hinting at something.

Xu Wenhao was stung by her gaze and stopped talking. He lowered his head and ate in silence.

"Oh, how can Xiaoli talk like that?" After the two finished talking, Bai's father began to smooth things over. He first criticized Bai Li's faults in a harsh tone, and then gently said to Xu Wenhao: "I'm sorry, nephew, I just spoiled her too much. It's understandable, this may be because your acceptance of my invitation was really unexpected."

Xu Wenhao: “…” Why does this sound weird?

But he couldn't say anything, so he could only whisper that it was okay.

Wan Linlin almost laughed out loud, and she quickly lowered her head so that Xu Wenhao, who was sitting opposite her, would not see the expression on her face.

What Mr. Bai meant was almost to say directly: I was just inviting you out of courtesy, who would have thought you took it seriously.

Wan Linlin silently pinched her thigh under the dining table and gasped because of the pain: Hiss—Haha, I’m dying of laughter.

Xu Wenhao probably felt uncomfortable as well. He quickly finished his meal and said goodbye to Mr. Bai. Before leaving, he asked Mr. Bai to reconsider his proposal.

After he left, Bai Li was the first to speak in dissatisfaction: "Is the Xu family unable to support him? He comes to our house for a free meal?"

Father Bai picked up a dish for his wife with chopsticks and said, "Who would have thought that he would come to me to discuss cooperation so early in the morning when I was still sleepy. He was looking around while talking. I wonder who he was looking for?"

Wan Linlin looked at Bai Li: You are such a big and beautiful girl, guess who he is looking for.

Bai Li was speechless: "What if he doesn't have a father himself?"

Wan Linlin laughed: Hey, we really are in sync with each other!

"He said this was an exercise his father gave him, allowing him to attract investment on his own."

Bai Li was really angry: "Has he forgotten the dirty things the Xu family did to our family? He still has the nerve to come to you for investment!"

Father Bai was very calm: "You have to be thick-skinned to do business. We can't do anything if they are shameless. It's not bad to make money. But forget about investment. I think his project will lose money."

"What investment?"

Father Bai thought for a moment and said, "It seems like a fashion show."

When she heard about the fashion show, Wan Linlin suddenly had an epiphany. The original text did mention that the male protagonist held a fashion show, and he made a lot of money because the clothes used special designs and new fabrics.

But the good times did not last long. The clothes on the show were soon exposed to have problems with plagiarism and theft, and all of them were confirmed. Xu Wenhao had no evidence to refute it, and all the money he had earned was lost. He even lost a lot of money. If he did not have some background, he would even have to spend a few days in jail.

Afterwards, Xu Wenhao found out that it was the villain who was targeting him because his family had used dishonorable means to snatch an order from the villain's company some time ago, so Duan Yunqi was retaliating against him.

From plagiarism to the confirmation, all the information was released by Duan Yunqi in order to bring him down.

The designer whose manuscript was stolen by Xu Wenhao was also poached by Duan Yunqi at a high price.

Xu Wenhao was furious. He thought everything was perfect, but he didn't expect Duan Yunqi to go against him. However, before he took revenge on Duan Yunqi, he had to clean up the "dirty water" of plagiarism first.

So he spent a lot of money to bring out a scapegoat, claiming that it was all the other party's idea and had nothing to do with himself. In addition, he hired a large number of internet trolls to fish in troubled waters online, and the matter was left unresolved.

Wan Linlin didn't remember what he did afterwards, because the author wrote it very briefly, almost just glancing over it, but he seemed to have made Duan Yunqi lose a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Wan Linlin couldn't help but admire Father Bai's foresight: "Uncle, it was a wise choice for you not to invest! Xu Wenhao's design drafts were all stolen from others!"

Father Bai frowned: "He stole other people's designs and shamelessly solicited investment. Is he planning to make others lose money with him?"

Hearing this, Bai's mother also sighed, "I really don't know how his family educates their children."

Bai Li first glanced at Wan Linlin, not knowing why she knew the inside story, but she nodded anyway: "He is courting death, no one can save him."

Father Bai reminded Bai Li: "Stay away from him, or he will depend on you."

Wan Linlin couldn't help laughing again: What Mr. Bai said made Xu Wenhao sound like a salesman.

Father Bai waved his hands, not wanting to say anything more: "Let's not talk about him anymore, let's eat."

......

At the same time, Lin Zhuo, who was having dinner at home, received another message from Wan Linlin: [Sisters! Xu Wenhao is going to cause trouble! ]

Lin Zhuo raised his eyebrows and replied: [Why, he wants to marry into the Bai family? ]

Wan Linlin responded quickly: [Pooh, pooh, pooh! How can he be worthy?! He wants Bai Li's family to lose money! What is he up to?]

[Who knows? Maybe he wants to let others take care of the good times and let others take care of the bad times.]
