The arrogance of the city

Chapter 719 My name is Emperor Yan, and I come from... the underworld!
"Hey, it's really rare. We've known each other for half a year. You invited us to dinner. If I remember correctly, this should be the first time."

In a high-end restaurant on Chunqiu Road, Mu Yudie turned her head with a charming smile, "Right, Manni?"

Beside her, Shen Manni was also sitting, including Su Yuan.

As the host this time, Li Futu not only treated the guests to dinner, but also prepared gifts.

It was a souvenir brought back by him and He Caiwei from traveling abroad, three strings of rosary beads, impartial, one for each of Shen Manni.

"There is nothing to be diligent about, either a traitor or a thief."

Mu Yudie took the rosary, played with it for a while, then raised her head with a half-smile.

"Tell me, did you do something wrong? Or is there something you want us to help?"

Although she had contact with Li Futu that shouldn't have happened, as she said, that night didn't seem to bring any changes to her relationship with Li Futu, at least on the surface.

"Is it wrong to invite you to dinner?"

Li Futu smiled wryly, but did not reveal any abnormality.

"In the past six months, I've been eating and drinking with you all, and I'm really ashamed when I think about it, so I want to make up for it."

"Not bad, after a year, I have indeed matured a lot, and this awareness is worthy of praise."

Mu Yudie is worthy of being a person who has won the trophy of actress, and no one can detect any abnormalities in her frown and smile.

She picked up the menu: "Then I'm not welcome?"

Li Futu nodded with a smile.

"Uncle Shen, are they in good health?"

He turned to look at Shen Manni.

This is the first time he and Shen Manni have met since the new year.

"Uncle is in good health. During the Chinese New Year, he was still talking about Brother Futu. He even asked my cousin why you didn't go."

Before Shen Manni could speak, Su Yuan took the lead. After a few weeks, she seemed to have slowly adjusted herself.

"It's true for you, too. During the Chinese New Year, I didn't even think about calling my uncle."

Mu Yudie, who was still ordering food, was single-minded, holding up the grievances for her sister.

"It's also thanks to Uncle's generosity. If you are a parent with a smaller heart, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to enter the house again in the future."

Li Futu looked at Shen Manni.

"Order your dishes carefully, and talk nonsense."

"Manni, I'm not wrong, this is a basic courtesy..."

Seeing Shen Manni staring at her, Mu Yudie curled her lips, "Well, forget me talking too much, okay?"

She honestly started to order.

"Brother Futu, did you spend the Chinese New Year this year alone?"

Su Yuan asked.

"With a few friends."

Li Futu avoids the important and takes the light.

Su Yuan snorted, and after a year, this girl seemed to have grown up a lot, and she no longer pursued her as before.

"Your brother Futu has friends all over the world, are you still afraid that he will be lonely?"

Where Mu Yudie was, she would never worry about being left alone, so she was quiet for a while and couldn't control her mouth.

She handed the menu to Shen Manni, "Do you want to have a look again?"

Shen Manni shook her head, "No need."

Mu Yudie gave Su Yuan another look, and the girl shook her head.

"Thank you."

Just skipping someone, Mu Yudie returned the menu to the waiter.

"Manni, the first film that you and Long Teng are working on together should be almost finished, when are you planning to set the file?"

Mu Yudie smiled and sighed: "Every time I'm the lead actor, this time the name appears as the producer, how do you feel?"

"Probably in April, post-work and publicity will take some time."

Li Futu also knew about the cooperation between Long Teng and Shen Manni's studios, but he didn't expect the first result to come out so soon.

"congratulations."

Shen Manni glanced at him.

"It's too early to say congratulations, and I'm not sure about the result."

This step is undoubtedly very important to create a film released by the studio.

Although Shen Manni is an extremely successful actress, being successful in her acting career does not mean she can spread to the market.

Even if she personally supervises and is confident in the quality of the film, as a first-time boss, she will inevitably feel uneasy about what the response will be when it is actually put on the market.

"Cousin, don't worry, when the time comes, I will definitely call on the students of our school to go to the cinema to support you!"

Su Yuan opened her big jewel-like eyes.

Hearing this, no matter Shen Manni or Mu Yudie, even Li Futu couldn't help laughing.

Not to mention, with this girl's name in Dongda, it shouldn't be a big problem to call 2000 people to go to the theater to watch the movie, which is equivalent to tens of thousands of box office.

"Yuanyuan, if your sister is reduced to the point where she needs your help, then she might as well become an actress again."

Mu Yudie was overjoyed, and then glanced at Li Futu.

"Furthermore, your brother-in-law is such a big benefactor, why do you need you to be so busy? Even if the response is not good, your brother-in-law will spend hundreds of millions or billions, isn't it easy?"

It is not so strange for the film industry to buy box office. With Li Futu's economic strength, it is not so difficult to win the favor of Bomei people, even if it is the first domestic box office film.Of course, Mu Yudie was just joking.She knew that even if Li Futu had such a heart, with Shen Manni's pride, she would not allow him to do this.

"Can't you expect me to order?"

Shen Manni couldn't help smiling wryly.

Mu Yudie said: "It's just a joke, Manni, don't take it seriously."

Li Futu poured a glass of red wine and raised the glass: "If you are good at learning, you will be an official, and if you are good at acting, you will be a director. I wish you a successful start. I also believe that you will definitely be able to succeed."

Mu Yudie also raised her wine glass and glanced at Su Yuan.

"Yuanyuan, did you see that, when looking for a boyfriend in the future, I will only look for someone with such a sweet mouth, who can talk and make people happy."

The three of Shen Manni didn't realize that there was a different meaning in Li Futu's eyes when he spoke.

After eating, Mu Yudie drove away, and Li Futu drove Shen Manni and Su Yuan home.

The scene is like a very common parting.

Shen Manni subconsciously sat in the co-pilot, so she inadvertently found something in the car.

"what is this?"

She lifted the file bag from the seat.

The file bag was not sealed.

Warring States House.

Equity transfer.

The exposed large characters made her pupils shrink instantly.

She couldn't help but glanced at Li Futu.

Li Futu smiled lightly.

"give it to me."

Shen Manni silently returned the file bag to him.

"Yuanyuan, you go in first."

When she returned to Chunqiu Huafu, Shen Manni had no intention of getting out of the car.

"Goodbye, Brother Futu."

Su Yuan was indeed much better-behaved, pushed the door and got out of the car.

When Su Yuan walked into the villa, Shen Manni frowned and asked, "Did something happen?"

"No."

"Then why did you transfer the Warring States?"

Shen Manni stared at him closely.

Although she only saw a few words just now, she already knew exactly what it was.

"The Warring States is not mine, I just let it return to its original owner."

Li Futu looked at the villa where he had lived for a while.

Even though he only lived in it for a short time, those days have become a memory worth cherishing.

"Manni."

He withdrew his gaze and said softly, "I'm leaving."

Shen Manni's expression froze suddenly.

"……What did you say?"

Li Futu looked at her with a gentle smile.

"I said that I came back to China just to relax. In the past six months, I have lived a relaxed life that I have never had before. I should be satisfied."

Shen Manni opened her lips, but no sound came out, her heart seemed to be clenched tightly by a big hand, and her eyes fluctuated violently.

"I also want such days to be longer, but... I'm sorry."

Li Futu's eyes showed a hint of apology, and he slowly stretched out his hand, gently helping her brush a strand of hair from her cheek behind her ear.

"Didn't you ask me many times, who am I?"

Under Shen Manni's trembling eyes, the man in the driver's seat spoke softly, as if he was saying goodbye to her and life.

"My name is Emperor Yan."

"...from the underworld."
