Chapter 72 Plot Armor
Chapter 72 Plot Armor
After breakfast, Li Yue immediately went to Mo Li's room to examine the walls that he wanted to be painted. However, she soon discovered that the walls in his room were made of expensive and antique wood,something that she did not want to ruin. When she asked Mo Li about it, the latter only smiled and asked her to go to his office instead.
This made Li Yue irritated. Why would Mo Li ask her to go to his room when he knew that she wouldn't work on something like his walls?
"Do you like my room? I believe it's a little manly for your taste. Should we make some renovations?"
"…" She turned her head away and decided to ignore this man until they arrived at his office. Li Yue couldn't understand why Mo Li wanted to honor a promise that was made in the middle of a crisis. Wasn't that something that would void a promise?
After a few minutes, Li Yue and Mo Li arrived at Mo entertainment where he woul have a meeting at ten in the morning. Because of this, Mo Li told her to wait in his office. He even promised to finish the meeting in two hours.
Again, Mo Li emphasized how important it was for him to complete his promise. In the end, Li Yue just rolled her eyes and complied to his request. Now that she thought about it, for the next two months, Mo Li could become his biggest plot armor and knight who was going to save her from the clutches of the people that she had previously offended.
"The Lu Family is starting to act, trying to inquire about you and who invited you back in the city." Her assistant told her on the phone. After arriving at Mo Li's office, Li Yue immediately called her assistant asking for updates of her paintings and some people in the Lu Family. "Also… Miss Li Weiwei… might be trying to create some charity for the purpose of helping you. She and Mr. Xia had their people inquire about the that you experienced in the past four years." She heard her assistant snicker. "Someone wants to create a pitiful story to make themselves look like saints."
"Then… leak my information." Li Yue immediately felt her head ache. It seems that everyone still thought that she was the weak and poor Li Yue from four years ago. Did these people think that she was not capable of earning her own money? Her net worth might not be that much as business tycoons but she could still be considered in the upper class. She could live comfortably even if she didn't work for the rest of her life.
With her investments and savings, Li Yue's future was already assured— that was if she still had a future.
"Are you sure?'
"Yes. Just let them know the name that I'm using. I'm sure they will soon connect the dots that they didn't know existed. Plus this is in accordance with my plan. Don't retaliate." Retaliating only meant trouble. As much as possible, Li Yue really wanted to lead a peaceful life.
"Alright." After talking about her investments and paintings that some rich people bought, Li Yue bid her assistant goodbye and ordered something that she could eat online. Mo Li's lifestyle was extremely healthy. While Li Yue was not against a healthy living, she just found it useless to stay healthy when she was still uncertain about the things that will happen to her after her quests.
Li Yue already decided that she would consider this world as some sort of training. She was confident that she would be able to save the male lead this time. However, she was aware that she had made a lot of mistakes here and there. She had even changed the plot and made Mo Li lose his role as the villain. She would surely keep all this in mind and learn from it; for her next worlds.
"You are here?"
Li Yue immediately looked at the woman who had just barged inside Mo Li's office. Wearing an all white pant suit, Bai Lan the step sister looked absolutely divine. Her blond hair was perfectly curled, her lips looked like red plums, her eyebrows had the perfect curve. With her black branded bag and stiletto, Bai Lan looked just like a beautiful model who had walked off of the runway. Li Yue couldn't help but praise the now very beautiful Bai Lan.
"Where's elder brother?"
"Meeting," Li Yue answered. She still couldn't stop her eyes from staring at this beautiful woman as she wondered if she should ask about her skin care routine. Was this the product of technology? Or genes?
Now that she thought about it, Bai Lan should be an executive at this company right? Aside from being an executive she was considered as a top model and was working under Mo Entertainment. Li Yue never expected that she would see this woman today.
"You should just come back when he's done." Bai Lan said as she nonchalantly walked towards Mo Li's table and sat on his chair. Then she opened his computer and started typing something. "What are you waiting for? Leave. No one is allowed in his office except me." Bai Lan said coldly.
Li Yue just nodded and ignored her. However, she couldn't help but wonder how the innocent white lotus turned into a cold goddess. Was it because of Mo Li? But wasn't this good? With Bai Lan's current beauty and grace, it would be good for Mo Li to marry this woman instead.
"Why are you still here?" Bai Lan raised her head and looked at her. "Do you want me to get the security to drag you out of my fiance's office?"
"Fiance? You and Mo Li?"
"Of course! Didn't you hear? He is already engaged. Now… scram!"
Li Yue's lips thinned. "Miss Bai… it seems that your imagination is too broad. Are you trying to write a book about this story?" How could Li Yue let go of her plot armor this easily? She wanted to have an easy life in the next two months! Thus, she already decided to stick to her absolute knight in shining armor!
