The King of Xiuxianjuan returns to modern times and becomes a landlord

Ying Ni sped along the winding mountain road in her Lamborghini, returning to the familiar unfinished building. As the night deepened, the only sound in the silence was the engine of her luxury car. She expertly parked the car in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain, as if everything there was already familiar to her.

She opened the car door, and a fresh mountain breeze blew in, mingled with the coolness of the night. Ying Ni unloaded her carefully selected items from the car. Each package seemed exceptionally precious. She carefully moved them to the ground, as if carrying priceless treasures.

Afterward, Ying Ni stood in the parking lot, took a deep breath, and concentrated. She began to cast a spell, her hands tracing intricate paths through the air, her fingertips gleaming with a faint light. Under her power, the teleportation array on the ground gradually revealed mysterious runes, radiating a dazzling light.

In an instant, the teleportation array's light reached its zenith, enveloping Ying Ni and all her belongings in a dazzling radiance. Then, the light dissipated, and Ying Ni and her belongings vanished, as if they had never appeared in this world. Silence returned to the parking lot, leaving only the lone Lamborghini, parked quietly in the night.

In a flash, Ying Ni's figure glimmered onto the third-floor landing. She stood there, breathing lightly, and glanced around, a flicker of satisfaction in her eyes. After much effort, she had finally taken the time to arrange everything neatly. The third floor was no longer the shabby space it once was. The decor was completely refreshed, as if it had been reborn. The wallpaper on the walls had been replaced with a new pattern, vibrant and full of color. The furniture had been rearranged to make better use of the space. Every detail betrayed Ying Ni's care and effort, and the entire floor exuded a warm and comfortable atmosphere.

After a busy work and personal life, Ying Xuan finally had some free time. After today's events, she realized the need for a comprehensive and detailed understanding of her businesses. This would free her from relying on others' opinions when purchasing items, allowing her to make decisions with greater independence and confidence. She understood that only by fully understanding her businesses could she maintain the initiative in various business situations and avoid unnecessary embarrassment or passiveness. Therefore, she decided to take the time to thoroughly understand the operations, financial status, and market prospects of each business, so as to better control her financial lifeline.

As Ying Ni was lost in deep thought, a silence reigned, as if even the air had frozen. Suddenly, a clear, melodious ringtone shattered the stillness. She paused for a moment, then reached for her phone. An unfamiliar number flashed on the screen.

"It's me. There are some things I need to talk to you about." Bai Fan's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of elusive hesitation and mystery.

"What's the matter?" Ying Li was a little surprised. After all, she knew that Bai Fan should be far away in the capital, and his call seemed to indicate some unusual news.

"Well, it's a long story. Let's meet tomorrow to discuss it in detail. I'll come to find you." Bai Fan didn't give Ying Li any chance to respond and quickly hung up the phone, as if deliberately avoiding any possible rejection.

"What on earth is going on?" Ying Li stared at her phone in confusion, her heart filled with doubts. Bai Fan's sudden action left her puzzled and she couldn't help but wonder what had happened that made Bai Fan so eager to meet her.

Ying Ni pondered for a moment, but couldn't figure out why Bai Fan was looking for her, so she decided not to dwell on it anymore. The answer would be revealed tomorrow anyway.

"What's going on? Are you sure you're not mistaken? What benefits did that crew give you that would actually make a Nine-Tailed Fox like you ask me for investment?" Ying Ni couldn't believe her ears. Oh my God, what did she just hear? She even wondered if she was dreaming.

Ying Ni hurriedly took a sip of tea, trying to calm her inner confusion and shock. Then she carefully examined Bai Fan. She confirmed that he had not been affected by any unholy magic, and she also ruled out the possibility that Bai Fan had been possessed. This was all true; Bai Fan had indeed been asking her for an investment.

Bai Fan, struck by Ying Ni's spitting tea, quickly grabbed a nearby tissue to wipe himself clean. Hearing this, he couldn't help but think that asking Ying Ni out was a wise decision. If they were in the pawnshop, he imagined she would strip him naked and throw him into the Nine Heart Pond. He truly didn't want to experience that situation again; that memory was one he didn't want to relive. He never wanted to experience that kind of pain and humiliation again.

"Oh, my aunt, please speak a little more quietly. Although we are in a private room, the sound insulation is not ideal. If you speak louder, I'm afraid other people will hear you." Bai Fan reminded nervously. He didn't want their conversation to be heard by outsiders, otherwise things might become more complicated.

"Then tell me, what made you think of asking me to invest in that crew?" Ying Li was very curious about what kind of crew could make Bai Fan humble himself and make a request to her.

"I've become a singer now. My previously released songs were already popular, and then the production team contacted me, hoping I could compose and sing the theme song for their TV series. I've already signed a contract with them." Bai Fan chose his words carefully, fearing that an inappropriate word would anger Ying Ni. "Everything was going smoothly, but halfway through filming, the show's largest investor withdrew their investment, so now the production team is looking for new funding."

"So?" Ying Ni listened for a long time, but didn't get to the core of the matter. So she interrupted Bai Fan and asked, "What's the point?"

"Please don't be anxious! Here comes the point. The plot, costumes and props of this drama are all excellent. The most important thing is that I have already written the songs and received the payment. So, you understand what I mean..." Bai Fan's voice gradually lowered. If Ying Li did not have the hearing of a cultivator, it would be difficult for her to catch his last words.

"So, to sum up, the TV series produced by this crew uses the theme song sung by you, and the crew is currently facing financial difficulties. You have already accepted the crew's compensation, so you don't want the crew to disband. You can't think of anyone else who can invest besides me, right?" Ying Li drew this conclusion from Bai Fan's words.

"Yes, that's right." Bai Fan responded softly.

Ying Ni initially considered declining the offer, but then, recalling her personal assets from yesterday and considering the funds in her bank account were temporarily idle, she decided investing was a good idea. "Actually, I do have some spare cash, but I need to first understand the specifics of the crew."

Bai Fan originally did not intend to get Ying Ni to agree just by winning once, but now that she seemed to be relenting, he immediately expressed his understanding and offered to go with her on the inspection.
