Chapter 501 Mr. Chi, Please Have Some Self-Respect
For her nineteenth birthday, Bai Yanzhi gave her nineteen items, one for each year of her life, as a way to make up for the eighteen years of gifts she missed.
The last gift was a gold card.
The Gao family was incredibly lucky. After becoming rich overnight, they invested in several projects and made a fortune from them.
Of course, Fang Qisheng's secret help was indispensable behind the scenes.
The two arrived at the open-air hot spring together.
The night was as dark as ink, and the stars in the sky were sparsely scattered across the deep blue sky, like shards of silver blown by the wind.
A gentle night breeze, carrying a slight chill, mingled with the whisper of distant waves lapping against the rocks, and carried on the sea breeze the faint fragrance of flowers blooming quietly under the moonlight.
Chi Liche sat on a dark rattan lounge chair, the soft fabric beneath him making him appear as if he were enveloped in the night.
He leaned casually against the back of the chair, one leg crossed over the other, looking relaxed and comfortable.
He wore dark glasses that obscured his eyes, but couldn't hide the faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
He was gently swirling a glass of some kind of liquor in one hand, while his other hand was looking at his phone, fiddling with something.
When Bai Yisha saw him, her lips twitched slightly, and she couldn't help but say, "Chi Liche, why are you wearing sunglasses so late at night? Are you afraid someone will recognize you?"
Chi Liche raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of laziness and amusement flashing in his eyes. He slowly turned his head, his gaze as deep as the night, carrying a nonchalant yet undeniably sharp edge.
"Young boss? What brings you here? Where are the others?"
Bai Yisha pointed to the villa across the street: "They're busy over there... Hey? What are you doing?"
She noticed that Chi Liche's phone screen was displaying some pictures that looked like products, raised an eyebrow, and couldn't help but lean closer to take a look.
Her skirt swayed gently with her steps, and her hair fluttered slightly in the night breeze.
Seeing her approach, Chi Liche calmly flipped his phone over and gently waved it at her, a slight smile playing on his lips. His tone was casual yet seductive: "Making money, interested?"
Upon hearing the word "making money," Bai Yisha's interest was instantly piqued. She immediately leaned closer, her eyes sparkling as she stared at his phone screen, and earnestly asked, "How do you make money?"
The things she originally wanted to discuss with him were instantly forgotten.
Chi Liche narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile playing on his lips, his gaze revealing a hint of laziness and amusement.
He lazily sat up straight, casually tilted his phone towards Bai Yisha, flipped through the screen, and said in a light tone, "This thing is called digital collectibles. Buy low and sell high. If the collectible is valuable, you're guaranteed to make a profit."
As he spoke, he glanced at her with a hint of provocation and seduction in his eyes.
This was the first time Bai Yisha had ever heard of this. After thinking for a while, she muttered, "This is a bit like stocks."
Chi Liche chuckled lightly, his tone casual yet tinged with a hint of wickedness: "Hmm, clever, that's about it, just with less risk. How about it, want to give it a try? I have inside information, but you'll have to pay me to exchange it, it's not expensive."
Bai Yisha immediately looked up at his deep eyes with disdain and complained, "You're really something, even more greedy than me."
Chi Liche chuckled, neither confirming nor denying.
Bai Yisha glanced at her watch and said, "My phone is undergoing surgery. I'll transfer the money to you once the surgery is finished, but you have to promise me I'll make a profit."
Chi Liche nodded slightly and smiled faintly.
He parted his thin lips slightly: "Of course, when have I ever made you suffer a loss?"
That's true.
Chi Liche is a bit ruthless, but he's very reliable.
"Okay, it's settled then. Oh, by the way, I have something to tell you."
"I'll talk business with you after we have a drink."
Chi Liche's voice was deep and languid, with a hint of nonchalant amusement.
His tone was teasing and joking, clearly meant to amuse Bai Yisha.
His black shirt collar was slightly open, revealing a faint scar on his collarbone, like a mark of the past.
Bai Yisha: "......"
A cunning old fox.
Bai Yisha glanced at the shallow scar on his collarbone and pondered for two seconds.
He snatched the wine glass from his hand, his fingertips lightly touching his, but without lingering, he tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.
The wine slid down my throat, the amber liquid shimmering in the moonlight.
Her movements were swift and decisive, which also caused her to choke a little.
"Cough cough cough..."
She coughed a few times, her face flushed slightly, and the burning sensation in her throat made her frown.
What kind of liquor is good for burning?
"I've finished my drink, I need to talk to you about something."
She drank so quickly that Chi Liche and Bai Yanzhi didn't have time to stop her, leaving behind a stunned and bewildered silence.
Chi Liche paused slightly, not expecting Bai Yisha to take it seriously. He chuckled and slowly clapped his hands: "Not bad, kid. You downed 60-proof liquor in one gulp. Thumbs up for you."
Bai Yisha suddenly felt a little dizzy.
Gee...
Impulsive.
Bai Yanzhi stood to the side, looking at the two with a complicated expression. Her gaze shifted back and forth between Bai Yisha and Chi Liche. She stepped forward, put her hand on Bai Yisha's shoulder, frowned, and whispered, "Are you crazy?"
Drinking a whole glass of 60-proof liquor in one gulp?
Bai Yisha smiled shyly at Bai Yanzhi, her rosy cheeks and slightly dreamy eyes making Bai Yanzhi feel a layer of worry.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
Chi Liche stared at Bai Yisha with a leisurely air, then poked her forehead. She puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction and glared at Chi Liche.
This, in turn, elicited a soft chuckle from Chi Liche.
Bai Yisha's hair was slightly disheveled by the night breeze, and her flushed face seemed somewhat alluring.
[Chi Liche's favorability +3, total favorability 58.]
Bai Yanzhi quickly pulled Bai Yisha to sit down next to her, then looked coldly at Chi Liche and warned, "Mr. Chi, men and women should not touch each other. Please have some self-respect and don't touch her casually. She can't hold her liquor. After she finishes talking, I'll take her back to rest."
Chi Liche didn't show any expression, but made a 'please' gesture, signaling Bai Yisha to speak.
Bai Yisha blinked several times and asked, "Chi Liche, did you lend money to someone again?"
Chi Liche shrugged, seemingly unconcerned, and said, "It's normal. You know I lend money."
That's true. If he hadn't lent money so casually, she wouldn't have sought him out in the first place to find parents for Lu Mingxing.
However, this has significant drawbacks.
So she tactfully said to Chi Liche, "How about we consider changing the way or rules of lending money? I have a student I sponsor; her wicked parents stole her identity and borrowed 700 million from your people..."
