Chapter 69: Don’t Make Video Calls While She’s Taking a Bath

When Shi Xu asked Shi Xi such a question, it was actually because he wanted Shi Xi to inherit the shares of the Shi family.

If he let Shi Xi work under him, Shi Xu would always be able to protect her.

In this way, no one would look down on Shi Xi.

It was just that Shi Xi was unwilling to inherit the shares, so Shi Xu had changed to a more tactful way.

To let Shi Xi go to the company to help him…

He didn’t need Shi Xi’s help. He just needed to find an excuse to let Shi Xi stay by his side.

Shi Xi’s eyes were filled with a smile. “Big Brother is so amazing, why do you need my help? Besides, there’s nothing I can do.”

She only wanted to make money in the entertainment industry.

Mother Shi said from the side, “The bigger the business, the harder it is to keep the business. On the surface, they’re diligent and respectful, but in private, who knows how much money they’ve stolen!!”

Father Shi nodded in agreement. “Even if they are family members, they can’t be trusted.”

“You are still young now. Let’s talk about it after you graduate.” Shi Xu changed the topic and asked, “After this drama is finished, do you have any plans for the future?”

Perhaps in a few years, Shi Xi would know his good intentions.

Not mentioning the shares, Shi Xi heaved a sigh of relief. Her eyes were black and bright. “There will be a variety show in a while.”

“Will it delay your studies?” Mother Shi was worried about Shi Xi’s studies.

Shi Xi calculated the time and said, “Don’t worry, it won’t be delayed.”

She had told Han Chuan that no matter what, her studies would be prioritized.

“As long as it doesn’t delay your studies.”

The Shi family did not have much of a barrier against Shi Xi going into the entertainment industry.

After chatting for a while in the living room, Shi Xi went upstairs to rest.

While she was taking a bath, her phone vibrated. It was a video call from Tao Yuxuan.

Shi Xi immediately switched to voice and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I’m asking about your recent situation!” Tao Yuxuan asked, “Where are you?”

“At home.” After saying that, Shi Xi added, “The Shi family.”

“Yo! You’re finally back!” Tao Yuxuan said in surprise, “I told you. You’ve been in the Shi family for 18 years. Even if you’re not the biological daughter of the Shi family, you should still receive some compensation. Now that you’re back, that Ning Yu didn’t bully you, right?”

Shi Xi said helplessly, “No one bullied me.”

Everyone treated her very well.

Them treating her so well made her feel that she was the worst.

“Then you have to be careful. That Ning Yu person seems to be very scheming. She might be planning some kind of scheme!” Tao Yuxuan had never been afraid of thinking others had the worst intentions, especially when it came to Ning Yu.

Shi Xi changed the topic. “Where are you? When are you coming back?”

“I just got to know a tall and handsome guy with eight-pack abs at Neapolis Beach! I don’t think I’ll be able to go back anytime soon.” Tao Yuxuan’s tone became infatuated. “He’s really handsome. His voice is especially charming and he even plays the guitar! I’ll go watch his bar performance tomorrow.”

Shi Xi: “Bar… Don’t drink too much.”

“Don’t worry, I’m just going to drink one gla.s.s. I’ll pretend to be drunk then. Hehe.” Tao Yuxuan smiled tacitly and said, “Oh right, I might not be able to make it in time for your birthday. Don’t be angry, I’ll bring you a present!”

Shi Xi was ecstatic. “It’s alright, it’s alright. You just stay outside and have fun for a few more days!”

It would be best if she didn’t come back!

Without Tao Yuxuan as a troublemaker, her birthday party would definitely be peaceful.

Tao Yuxuan: “If I can make it in time, I’ll try my best to go back.”

Shi Xi: “Try your best to get to know more handsome guys.”

‘Don’t come back and stir up trouble.’
