“Speaking of which, why didn’t you join Traveler with Li Yan and Fang Rong?” Bai Lin asked.

She hung out with Li Xuan before, so she knew that he had an older brother and a younger brother. However, she did not get to know them in detail because she was not interested. It was only after the show ended that she found out that Li Yan was actually Li Xuan’s disappointing younger brother.

A subtle smile appeared on Li Xuan’s face. “My mom didn’t tell us either. She just took Li Yan to the show. She originally wanted to use this opportunity to train him and improve his relationship with Bai Xi. Who would’ve thought…”

Bai Lin asked, “What’s with that expression? Your brother’s wife is gone and you’re happy about it?”

“How can I not be? Previously, I was very opposed to Bai Xi marrying into the family, but my parents acted as if they were possessed, saying that Bai Xi’s a good girl and that she must be married to the family.”

Thinking back to that memory, Li Xuan felt a headache. “My big brother and I don’t like her. Only that fool Li Yan keeps chasing after her. This time, he spoke rudely to my mom on the show and my dad’s very angry.”

Bai Lin’s interest was piqued. “Oh?”

Li Xuan smiled even more happily. “My dad stopped his credit cards and told him not to contact our family for half a year. He doesn’t even have a place to stay, and he doesn’t have a job either. He’s just freeloading off his friend’s house. Two days ago, he had a fight with that friend and was kicked out. Now he’s staying in a hotel, and he only has two thousand Yuan left.”

Bai Lin was also amused. In this big city where every inch of land was gold, two thousand Yuan was not even enough for an ordinary person, let alone Li Yan who had been a spendthrift since he was young.

After Li Xuan talked about this, he continued to share the gossip. “Also, the Bai Family’s been in a terrible state recently and is close to bankruptcy. Mr. Bai’s been begging people everywhere recently, but he had hit a wall every time. The Jin Family, which depends on them, is even worse off. Not only did they go bankrupt, they’re also more than five million Yuan in debt. So many debt collectors are at their door now that they don’t even dare to step out.”

Bai Lin was a little regretful.

Previously, Jin Hang had insulted her grandmother in front of her, and she had not even had the time to deal with him, yet he went bankrupt already?

It was too much of a joke.

Bai Lin nodded casually. “You’re quite well-informed.”

Li Xuan was in the entertainment industry and had a wide network of connection. After being praised by Bai Lin, he became even prouder. “Of course. Didn’t you admire that young girl Jin Ran? Her parents have been so shameless that they want to marry her off to an old man in exchange for money. I heard that they’ve already discussed it.”

Jin Ran was still recuperating on the hospital bed, and Bai Lin was paying for her medical expenses.

She put down the spoon and it made a crisp sound. She wiped the corner of her mouth and her eyes were cold. “What’s the man’s name?

‘Zhao Li.”

‘Got it,” Bai Lin replied.

Zhou Guang propped his chin on his hand and looked at Bai Lin. He suddenly smiled. “What are you going to do? Do you need my help?”

Bai Lin chuckled. “No need. I’ll be fine on my own.”

Zhou Guang shrugged his shoulders.

That man and the two people from the Jin Family were going to be in big trouble.

After eating and drinking their fill, the few of them got up and prepared to leave.

Li Xuan had booked a private room, and there was another room opposite of theirs. When Bai Lin went out, the door just happened to open.

There was a tall and handsome man with a beautiful woman in a light green dress beside him. The woman was holding his arm and saying something very intimately.

It was Yan Ruo.

Both of them were stunned. Bai Lin’s gaze stopped at the woman’s hand that was holding Yan Ruo’s before it slowly turned to Yan Ruo’s face. She said with a smirk, “What a coincidence, Best Actor Yan. You’re here dining with your girlfriend?”

Zhou Guang recognized the woman. Her name was Zheng You. Old Master Yan had always wanted the Zheng and Yan Family to have a marriage alliance, and Zheng You happened to be a fanatical fan of Yan Ruo. Yan Ruo’s repeated rejections did not manage to dispel her enthusiasm at all.

Yan Ruo did not like Zheng You and would not compromise on his marriage because of his family. Zhou Guang knew that it was impossible for Yan Ruo to have Zheng You as his girlfriend, but he was happy to watch from the side. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Who asked this brat to actually dare seduce his own sister?

Before Yan Ruo could say anything, Zheng You got into battle mode after seeing Bai Lin. She stuck closer to Yan Ruo and smiled even more sweetly. “Oh, we’re not even a couple yet.”

Even though she said that, her every move was hinting that they were not

actually that innocent..
