The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.
Chapter 56 Trading
When Xi Molin woke up in the morning, he washed up but still didn't feel well. He probably didn't sleep well last night and kept having recurring dreams.
She didn't have much of an appetite for breakfast, so she decided to go downstairs for a run, not thinking about when Mei Xiaofei would send someone to pick her up.
The phone finally rang around 2 p.m.
Schimerling took a nap this morning and is feeling a little better now.
"Hey…"
She picked up the phone.
"Hello, I am Yu Qingtong, Mr. Mei's assistant. You can come downstairs now. I will be waiting for you at the elevator entrance in the basement."
The polite and courteous voice was deep and cool.
Xi Molin thought of the woman who had been standing behind Mei Xiaofei earlier; it must have been her.
Without much hesitation, she slung her bag over her shoulder, grabbed her keys and phone, and changed her shoes.
After leaving the house, lock the door with the key and take the elevator directly to the basement.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I saw Yu Qingtong, who was wearing a black suit with a white shirt underneath.
She had her hair tied up in a bun, and her face was expressionless, giving her a very professional and aloof look.
The two got into a black minivan, and a private driver took them to their destination.
No one spoke during the journey; the atmosphere was stagnant and somewhat oppressive.
Xi Molin kept her head down, glancing at the time on her phone from time to time, and kept the dial pad on at all times so she could immediately call 110 to report any suspicious activity.
The car drove for more than an hour towards the suburbs. The area around Haishi is mostly flat, with few hills.
After driving along the winding mountain road for a few minutes, we finally arrived at a magnificent iron gate.
Passing through the gate, you are greeted by a luxurious villa, which looks just like the place where the rich live on TV, and it really is.
After the car came to a stop, Yu Qingtong opened the door and led Xi Molin not to the villa, but instead to the open lawn.
The further you go in, the better the view becomes. Streams, flowers, grass and trees, all the beautiful scenery below the hills seem to be surrounded by the resort.
This is another world that Schimerlin has never encountered before.
Everywhere you look, there is an exquisite and culturally rich arrangement; perhaps only birds are allowed to come and go freely here.
They walked for quite a while before finally arriving at the garden paved with bluestone slabs.
A quaint pavilion stands in front, surrounded by lush shrubs and flowers, and the scenery seems to have changed again.
Faint laughter and chatter came from the pavilion. Yu Qingtong stood at the entrance of the bluestone path and gestured for her to go ahead alone.
Schimerlin nodded to her and then mustered his courage to walk toward the pavilion.
Looking at that tiny figure, Yu Qingtong's hardened heart finally softened. She hoped the little girl wouldn't repeat the mistakes she had made...
Approaching the pavilion with the square stone table, Xi Molin stopped and looked at the two men and one woman sitting around it.
Sitting on the left was Mei Xiaofei, and the man directly opposite her looked somewhat familiar, as if he were Mei Qiteng, whom she had investigated before. As for the person on the right, she didn't recognize him.
She doesn't look very old...
The young man on the right had a beaming smile on his face, his undisguised gaze sweeping over Ximerlin, making him feel very uncomfortable.
Mei Xiaofei sipped the freshly brewed tea on the table, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said casually, "She just graduated from high school..."
"Will that work? Especially since she's a girl."
The man expressed his doubts.
Mei Qiteng, wearing oversized light brown glasses, quietly sipped his tea, showing little interest in Ximerlin's arrival.
Mei Xiaofei turned to look at him: "What do you think?"
Mei Qiteng glanced away with a cold gaze and uttered only two words: "No..."
"Chang Ming, why don't you test her strength?"
Mei Xiaofei was confident that he wouldn't misjudge people, but Xiao Teng had high standards, and he wouldn't even look at someone without real strength.
Schimerling stood on the steps outside the pavilion, like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
She hated this feeling.
“Mei Xiaofei, I did promise you that I would do anything for you unconditionally as long as it is within my power, but that doesn’t mean that you can make decisions for me arbitrarily without my knowledge.”
The three men, who were used to dominating others, were quite surprised to hear the questioning voice of a young girl with no background.
After all, it's rare for someone to dare call Mei Xiaofei by his full name...
She listened calmly, remaining composed.
Chang Ming stood up, his smile deepening as he approached her, his gaze becoming increasingly unrestrained.
"Your sister's name is Shu Xiangyu, right..."
Mentioning a sensitive figure in his heart indeed caused a flicker of emotion in Schimerlin's gaze.
"She's currently signed with Sister Fei's company, and I heard she's quite stubborn. They asked her to accompany investors for drinks, but she repeatedly refused. She's been signed for almost two years, and she's still only getting minor roles. She's really overestimating herself..."
Listening to his arrogant disparaging of his sister, Xi Molin suppressed his anger, his fists clenched tightly at his sides, his usually calm eyes now seeming to be burning with rage.
"so what?"
She coldly retorted.
"What"
Chang Ming didn't understand what she meant.
"So you want to use your sister to force me to give in."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Mei Qiteng scoffed from inside the pavilion: "A waste of time."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.
Chang Ming moved closer to Xi Molin, no longer discussing Shu Xiangyu, but instead asked her, "Do you dare to fight me?"
Before Ximerlin could answer, Mei Qiteng had already stepped past the two of them onto the bluestone slab: "Let's go..."
Mei Xiaofei remained calmly seated, drinking tea, offering no objection and offering no advice to him to stay.
Chang Ming remained unmoved, his eyes filled with mockery, his tone nonchalant: "How about this, if you beat me today, I'll immediately arrange a leading role for your sister in a play. If you lose, you'll crawl out of here like a dog and accept our arrangements..."
Xi Molin suddenly raised his head, staring intently at Chang Ming's mocking and eccentric appearance. His words were filled with a sense of superiority as someone who controlled the fate of others.
In the silence, just when everyone thought she would refuse, Xi Molin gritted her teeth and replied with four words: "It's a deal."
Mei Qiteng, who had walked a short distance, stopped upon hearing this. He hadn't heard such a hateful force in a long time...
Since a martial arts contest is necessary, it must be held in an open space. Fortunately, the mountain villa lacks everything except open space.
As Yu Qingtong waited outside, she watched the four of them walk out one after another, and the worry in her heart immediately plummeted. The little girl had fallen into their trap after all.
"Kid, if I cripple you, don't say I bullied you..."
Chang Ming wrapped his arms and legs around her neck, looking like he had her completely under his control.
Schimerling stood two or three meters away from him, took off her handbag and belongings, and piled them on the lawn.
Mei Xiaofei and Mei Qiteng, who were standing not far away, acted as temporary spectators.
Schimerlin tied her hair in a tight ponytail and wore a white T-shirt, black trousers, and sneakers when she arrived.
Chang Ming, who was taller and stronger than her, was wearing a blue striped shirt and gray trousers, with black leather shoes on his feet.
Judging from appearance alone, Schimerlin is at a disadvantage.
"I want to confirm again, you just said that if I beat you, you would arrange a leading role for Shu Xiangyu. Does that count?"
Chang Ming smiled and raised an eyebrow: "Of course, I, Chang Ming, keep my word, and the Mei siblings are here to witness it."
"Then let's get started."
Xi Molin's gaze was resolute; she was determined to fight tooth and nail for her sister's leading role today.
Chang Ming quickly launched an attack. He was tall and fast, while Xi Molin, who had studied martial arts for many years, was small in stature but highly agile.
Seeing his heavy punches and kicks coming at her, she quickly dodged while simultaneously delivering a powerful punch to his side.
The punch was quite powerful, and the pain caused Chang Ming to immediately lose the ability to retaliate.
However, he had been practicing various forms of boxing and martial arts for a long time and often sparred with others, so he quickly ignored the pain.
Schimerlin knew he couldn't match his strength, so he could only target tricky spots.
The two exchanged blows, and she was hit hard several times, but she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
Chang Ming's fighting spirit was completely ignited. As long as he could seize the opportunity to lock her down, he was not afraid that she would not admit defeat.
The competition reached a fever pitch, with both fighters drenched in sweat and covered in injuries.
At this moment, Ximerlin, who was slightly weaker, was caught off guard and was punched in the head by Chang Ming. The inertia caused her to fall to the ground.
The punch was so powerful that it almost made her dizzy and temporarily rendered her unable to retaliate.
Chang Ming wanted to take this opportunity to punch her a few more times. He wouldn't let her off just because she was a girl. Hitting women was more pleasurable than hitting men.
Shermerlin, who had fallen to the ground, was temporarily unable to stand up, but she knew that if he subdued her, it would be even more difficult for her to get back up.
She had to think of a solution, and in her desperation, she bit her tongue hard, and a sharp pain instantly shot through her.
Startled awake, just as Chang Ming came in front of her, she took advantage of his unpreparedness, quickly propped herself up, and leaped behind him.
She used her right arm to lock his neck tightly, while simultaneously using her left arm to tighten her grip and her legs to wrap around his upper body.
Chang Ming was being strangled and quickly fell into a state of oxygen deprivation. He kept grabbing Xi Molin's hands, but he was powerless to fight back, and his feet kept kicking wildly at the grass.
Schimerlin did not loosen his grip at all; instead, he used all his strength, his eyes filled with an unprecedented ferocity, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
The situation on the two people on the grass suddenly took a turn for the better.
Chang Ming was unable to make a sound; his eyes began to roll back, and his face became red, swollen, and purple.
Mei Xiaofei hurriedly went over to make Xi Molin loosen his grip, otherwise he would strangle him to death soon.
But she didn't budge.
"Do you... admit defeat?"
Ximerlin didn't loosen her grip, still using the moves Rong's father had taught her, locking him tightly in place.
Chang Ming pounded the grass with his hands, struggling to utter, "I...I give up..."
The moment Schimmelin let go, Chang Ming felt as if he had come back to life.
He lay face down on the ground, gasping for air, coughing and gagging incessantly.
Shimmering, also suffering from a splitting headache, struggled to his feet. Blood streamed from his face and mouth, his hair was disheveled, and his eyes were moist and bloodshot from the strain. His gaze toward the Mei siblings remained cold and resolute.
"Perhaps I'm just a fun game to you. And since it's a game, there are winners and losers, and corresponding costs. I'm sparing his life, and I ask that you keep your promise..."
She spoke with a calm and unyielding expression, her voice almost hoarse.
Mei Xiaofei's eyes widened in alarm: "Aren't you afraid you'll really strangle him to death...?"
Schimerlin looked up at the boundless blue sky and said casually, "At worst, I'll give my life for yours. Everyone dies eventually. I've died once before, so what's there to be afraid of..."
She turned to look at the disheveled Chang Ming.
"Besides, with him dead, the world will be one less scumbag, and then you won't be able to escape either..."
Chang Ming slowly stood up from the ground. Having just returned from the brink of death, he pointed at the composed Xi Molin and cursed angrily, "You're a fucking madman, a madman who doesn't value his life..."
Mei Qiteng's previously disdainful gaze suddenly turned sharp, and he exclaimed, "Little girl, let's make a deal."
