I'm crazy, don't mess with me. I just love to pretend to be crazy, remember that.

Perhaps it was the man's clear gaze that was so intense and dazzling that Si Qian felt all her secret thoughts had been exposed.

She avoided Pei Li's gaze somewhat flusteredly, laughing and joking with him.

"See you later!"

After saying that, Si Qian left as if fleeing.

"You get out here and die!"

[Host, your little flying commander is here!]

"roll!"

【Oh. 】

"Come back here! I'm asking you, what's wrong with this second male lead? He seems pretty normal to me!"

On the contrary, she herself seemed a bit abnormal in comparison to others.

Logically speaking, shouldn't the second male lead have started to turn evil at this point?

Pei Li is the epitome of a law-abiding citizen.

This also presented a dilemma, as the tasks assigned from above should not be wrong.

What went wrong?

I'm completely baffled. And judging from the current situation, the second male lead has absolutely no feelings for the female lead, while the female lead, who is like a white moonlight to me, is also keeping her distance from the male lead...

In a flash, Si Qian suddenly remembered an important question.

"I'm asking you, what kind of book am I wearing?"

Immediately accessing his database, he replied while reviewing the information: "[This is a CEO...stock-buying novel!?]"

In short, stock-themed novels involve the female protagonist and the male characters around her each having their own storylines. Readers guess who the male protagonist is, just like placing a bet, and the thrill is in the name of the game.

Of course, in the end, the female lead will choose someone, and that person will become the male lead.

In the novel that Si Qian transmigrated into, the female protagonist Mu Weiyue ultimately chose a bowl of knife-cut noodles from among the affectionate second male lead, the scheming younger brother, and her childhood playmate.

Thus, Li Chuanze became the male protagonist of this book.

Hearing this, Si Qian was speechless: "I thought I had transmigrated into the wrong book..."

……

At Lvxiang Excavator Driving School, Si Qian quickly learned how to operate an excavator under the guidance of a skilled driver.

As the saying goes, having more skills means having more jobs.

If she's really forced to leave the entertainment industry due to criticism, besides facing certain death, she could also dig a path out of her current situation with an excavator.

After studying until noon, Si Qian left the practice area and found Pei Li in the parking lot outside.

Since outsiders can't get into the driving practice area, he's been waiting until now.

"Mr. Krabs, I just saw a delicious Krabby Patty for sale nearby, right across from the park. Want to go get one together?"

Pei Li took out his phone and checked the location; it showed that it was only a five-minute walk away.

"eat!"

It was lunchtime, and Si Qian opened the driver's side door: "Get out, let's go eat together, it's on me!"

The two walked to a fast food restaurant in the park and ordered a set meal to take away.

Si Qian was carrying drinks, and the two were about to walk back when they passed the matchmaking corner in the park and heard a lot of noise, just like a vegetable market.

At this moment, a plump middle-aged woman in a floral dress pushed Pei Li aside with her buttocks, grabbed Si Qian's hand familiarly, and spoke intimately with a smile in her eyes.

"Hey girl, you're really pretty! Do you have a boyfriend?"

Just as Pei Li was about to speak after being pushed to the side, another middle-aged woman next to him pulled him aside.

"What a handsome young man! You're really good-looking. Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Yes, right next to you!"

Pei Li pointed to Si Qian, who was surrounded by other elderly men and women.

The old lady glanced at him, feigning ignorance: "Hey, it's alright, it's alright. You two might not be a good match. Listen to my introduction first. If you're not satisfied, you can continue dating."

Pei Li: "?"

The two looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

At this moment, the older woman next to Si Qian was pulled aside and looked her up and down carefully. She nodded with satisfaction: "Young lady, my family owns an apartment in Beijing. We are a family of ten with a close bond. My son, with his shoes on and a haircut, can jump 180cm. His salary is average, but his professional skills are definitely top-notch. There will be opportunities for promotion and salary increases in the future. He also served as a conscript before..."

Si Qian's mind was buzzing and she couldn't get a word in edgewise for a long time.

It turns out that people of all ages and genders like good-looking people; the elderly people in the park were incredibly enthusiastic when they saw Si Qian and Pei Li.

"Little girl, how old are you?"

"24."

"Oh my! You're already 24? You're practically 24 now, almost 25, dazedly 26, a bit 27, almost 28, nearly 29, almost 30, almost 31, almost 32, almost 40, and in the blink of an eye you'll be 50! You're practically halfway to the grave! If you don't get married soon you'll be an old maid!"

Si Qian: "???"

"No, ma'am, according to your logic, my parents would have to go after me."

I've only just started working and I already need to prepare money for my future?

In just one sentence, most of her life had passed.

The older woman waved her hand dismissively and asked cryptically, "When was the last time you hugged a man's waist?"

Si Qian gave a deadly smile: "The last time I hugged a man was when we were playing 'Eagle Catches Chicks' in kindergarten."

Undeterred by not getting the answer she wanted, the old woman turned to ask Pei Li.

"Young man, I have a daughter. Let me show you a picture."

"No need, we have to go!"

Pei Li went over and pulled Si Qian, wanting to leave this place.

Unfortunately, the elderly people blocked the way.

"Young lady, I have a son here. Tell me about your situation, and if you're suitable, we can arrange to meet him!"

"Young man, how about I give you 200,000 yuan to marry into my family?"

Unable to bear the harassment any longer, Si Qian directly stood in front of Pei Li.

"Dear elders, thank you for your kindness. Since everyone is so enthusiastic, I'll tell you my requirements for the man and his family. If you meet the requirements, please add my contact information."

No sooner had she finished speaking than an X-ray was projected from the side. Si Qian didn't even look at it, but gently pinched Pei Li to signal him to behave.

Then, she turned to face a group of elderly men and women.

"I like makeup, especially highlighter, Nike is the way to go."

No one in the audience backed down, and Si Qian continued to unleash his full power.

"I'm currently pregnant, anyone interested in taking over?"

Several middle-aged women left dejectedly, muttering something under their breath.

"I like fitness and can accept my mother-in-law hitting my husband."

Several more middle-aged women left.

"I usually enjoy eating Angus beef burgers, and I don't mind that I'm a gold digger."

The old men left too.

There were a few elderly people left at the scene, and it seems they really wanted a way to get their contact information.

Si Qian unleashed her ultimate move—

"My love declaration is: Mother-in-law is not mother, I'll beat her when I need to, pinch her when I need to, if I meet an old man, I'll seize the opportunity and move into a big villa overnight, my boyfriend will shower everywhere, all the sisters in the world are one family, I can't do any housework, I'll smash the dishes to pieces, cars, money, gold bracelets, if I'm missing anything, I'll slap you, I'll lie at home, sleep at home, the moment I open my eyes I'm spending money, I'll slap my mother-in-law, kick my father-in-law in the crotch, hit my sister-in-law on the left, scold my brother-in-law on the right, I won't have children, I won't earn money, if you marry me you'll be unlucky for life!"

From the corner came the old man's voice, a mix of cowardice and stubbornness—

"Why?!"

"Why should I? Because your son is my horse, and I can do whatever I want with him!"
