"Miss Xie, you really think too much. How could a smart person like me rely on selling my shares for a living? It is only a matter of time before the Black Mud Mask becomes famous all over the world. Its potential value is immeasurable. Do you think I don't know that?" I said in annoyance. However, it was understandable for Hsieh Shih-chi to have such a thought.
"Hmph, it's good that you know."
Hsieh Shih-chi let out a sigh of relief. Although she was just a female celebrity, she was clear about the rules of the business world. These days, asking people and being asked were two completely different things. Just like last night, when Hsieh Shih-chi called her friends in the circle to borrow money, some of them found all kinds of excuses and tactfully rejected her. Some of them were willing to lend her money, but hoped that Hsieh Shih-chi would write an IOU. Only one of her best friends agreed to lend her thirty million, and didn't ask for an IOU.
Hsieh Shih-chi knew about her family's situation. Thirty million was almost her limit. Originally, she was too embarrassed to ask for it, but facing the pressure from Young Master Fan, Hsieh Shih-chi had a headache.
If the company took out half of it, she would think of a way. She should be able to gather the money, but she was unhappy that Young Master Fan took advantage of her like this. It was undeniable that Ran jie's method was a bit rash. What surprised Hsieh Shih-chi was that I was actually so kind. At this moment, her tone revealed a sense of rebuke, just like a wife in charge of the accounts, unspeakably playful.
Thinking about Hsieh Shih-chi's expression, I couldn't help but tease her. "Haha, I think it is necessary to hire you as the company's finance director. In the future, you will come up with ideas and help me manage the accounts. You will definitely earn a lot of money."
After saying that, I regretted it a bit. Managing money should be handled by sister-in-law and the others. If I hand it over to Hsieh Shih-chi, my little brother will probably be beaten until he spits out water!
"Che, I am so busy every day, where would I have the time to help you manage the accounts. What's more, I am not a professional. Moreover, if your wife finds out in the future, won't she be suspicious?" Hsieh Shih-chi rejected me repeatedly. This series of reasons was quite convincing.
Actually, she was full of curiosity about me. I was a businessman who appeared out of nowhere, a martial arts prodigy who walked unhindered in the capital. Now, I also had the identity of an investor. This little man, who was clearly around twenty years old, what kind of experience did he have that made him so outstanding?
Xie Shiqi believed that she was the most outstanding among her peers, and she had also gotten to know many elites from all walks of life. Most of those people had one thing in common, and that was that they felt good about themselves and liked to show off. They always felt that they had set foot on the top of the pyramid and had experienced countless storms and waves. They did not know what it meant to be low-key and modest.
Actually, she didn't like to interact with this kind of people. It was only because of her work that she would inevitably come into contact with them. In comparison, my modesty and the fact that I was neither servile nor overbearing made Hsieh Shih-chi's eyes light up.
He wasn't even twenty years old, but he had the mind and spirit of a thirty or forty year old. Moreover, he seemed to be impulsive, but in reality, his heart was calmer than anyone else. This kind of feeling deeply fascinated her.
Because she was used to seeing beautiful men, Hsieh Shih-chi admired men with brains.
"It's better if you don't come. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to pay you your salary."
I said in a bad mood. In my heart, I secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Originally, it was just a simple teasing, but it caused Hsieh Shih-chi's imagination to run wild.
Her originally calm heart couldn't help but jump a few times. She thought that the reason why I invited her was because I wanted to see her every day. After all, as the saying goes, time breeds love. For someone like Hsieh Shih-chi who flies around the world, it wasn't easy for her to fall in love.
To put it bluntly, from Hsieh Shih-chi's point of view, this invitation was equivalent to an indirect confession. Her action was undoubtedly a rejection. So much so that Hsieh Shih-chi was in a dilemma. She even repeatedly thought about her words just now. Was it too firm? Otherwise, how could she get such a tsundere reply in return?
What if this little man lost his motivation to pursue her?
"Alright, that's all. You should prepare well. Tonight, you have a fan meeting." I greeted her.
This indifferent reply further confirmed Hsieh Shih-chi's thoughts. She felt a bit regretful. Why did she reject him so decisively. Men, don't they all like to be kept in suspense?
Originally, Hsieh Shih-chi wanted to get closer to me and have a deeper understanding of me. But now, it seems that she might not have such a chance. She really cut off her thoughts.
After hanging up the phone, Hsieh Shih-chi beat her chest and stamped her feet in frustration. Then she said to herself, "You stupid girl. You've always been known as the goddess with high IQ in the entertainment circle. How could you be so muddle-headed?
He helped you so much, but you didn't even say thank you, did you?
He vaguely confessed to you, but also mercilessly rejected you. Just what are you thinking?! "
After saying that, Hsieh Shih-chi pinched her own thigh. If I was there and saw this scene, I would definitely laugh out loud. I really didn't expect that the little actress with tens of thousands of fans would actually have such a cute and playful side.
In fact, I was afraid that Hsieh Shih-chi would continue to talk about my wife. She didn't know that I had any female confidantes around me. Although Hsieh Shih-chi had some connections, and could easily find information about me, she didn't have that habit.
Moreover, out of respect for me, Hsieh Shih-chi didn't like to understand me from other people's mouths. She preferred to see with her eyes, feel with her heart, and build up an impression of me through her own contact and understanding.
This kind of pure and intelligent personality was also her shining point. After all, women sometimes have to be smart, and sometimes they have to pretend to be stupid. Only those who can skillfully grasp the situation, are truly exceptionally intelligent.
