Chapter 737: What, are you going to sue me?

Zhu Li had already understood the situation, and upon hearing this, she agreed without hesitation: "Alright, I'll go handle it immediately!"

"Shen Ci, don't go too far!" Li Xiao growled, his eyes desperately suppressing his anger, because from his perspective, Shen Ci was clearly targeting him!

Shen Ci looked at his restrained appearance and sneered: "Too far? I don't want to see people who affect my mood in my own place. Is that going too far?"

"Your own place?" Qiu Keying looked suspiciously at the "Japanese Restaurant" in front of her and said subconsciously: "How is that possible? This restaurant belongs to 'Shui Yun Jian'. You said it's yours..."

Halfway through her sentence, she suddenly choked, her eyes widening in shock.

Seeing her reaction, Shen Ci smiled with satisfaction: "It's just as you think. We've met a few times, but I've never properly introduced myself to you. My name is Shen Ci, and I am the largest shareholder of 'Shui Yun Jian'."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the two dumbfounded people with a smile and raised an eyebrow: "Do you two have any other questions?"

"Th-this place is also yours?"

Li Xiao was shocked. Even though he had already learned some things about Shen Ci from his father, he still couldn't immediately accept this reality.

"How is that possible..." Qiu Keying said, looking disbelieving: "Ever since I was in middle school and this place opened, my parents have often brought me here. How could this place be yours?"

"There's nothing impossible about it. You probably don't want to see me either, so it's a win-win. From now on, you won't even be able to step through the door here." Shen Ci said lightly, her tone sounding as if she had done the other party a great favor: "No need to thank me."

"Shen Ci, once a membership card is topped up with money, your membership terms automatically take effect. It's equivalent to signing a contract. Do you know that what you're doing counts as a unilateral breach of contract?" Li Xiao argued based on reason. He felt that what Shen Ci was doing was too outrageous; regardless of anything else, Keying was a member here.

It even involved Uncle Qiu. He didn't want to get Uncle Qiu involved in this kind of matter, and even less did he want Uncle Qiu to feel that Keying had been wronged and get angry.

"I know. So? Are you going to sue me?" Shen Ci looked at the two of them and asked seriously.

"I..."

Faced with Shen Ci's attitude, Li Xiao was speechless.

Then he heard Shen Ci say again: "Suing me is fine too. As for the breach of contract penalty, I can afford to pay however much it is."

After saying this, Shen Ci and Zhu Li bypassed the two of them, preparing to leave. As a result, after walking two steps, she turned back to remind them: "Remember to pay the bill; it's quite expensive here."

Qiu Keying was so angry that her head spun, and she nearly blacked out.

"Keying, don't be angry. She's just a person who seeks revenge for the slightest grievance. She will always find a way to retaliate for previous unpleasantness."

Qiu Keying stomped her feet in anger, her eyes red and aggrieved as she said: "She wins every time. How can she own both 'Yunshang Tiangong' and 'Shui Yun Jian' at the same time? She's clearly about the same age as me, and these two places are the most famous and highest-end private membership clubs in Longcheng! Didn't you say she was vain and very poor?"

Li Xiao looked gloomy, clearly also hurt in his self-esteem by Shen Ci: "I really can't figure out what exactly happened to her. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been subjected to such grievances."

When a man admits his mistake, a woman's pity will instantly overflow. Seeing him like this, Qiu Keying hurriedly grabbed his hand to comfort him: "Don't say that. It's normal that you don't understand the situation after being abroad for more than a year. This isn't your fault."

"If it's hers, it's hers. We just won't come here in the future."

Li Xiao held her hand, smiled gently, and nodded slightly.

After flying for more than ten hours, Shen Li and her group finally landed in the "United States".

Shen Li looked at Guang Rong and asked: "Are you tired?"

"Not tired!" Guang Rong was particularly energetic, his whole person radiant: "Sister, I'm super excited. And this first-class cabin is too comfortable. I can lie down to sleep, and there's all kinds of food and drink. I haven't had enough of it yet."

"Me too." Tan Yue poked his head over from behind: "No wonder it sells for so much. It's really not the same thing as economy class."

First-class passengers disembarked first, and the group waited at the baggage claim area for Xiao Yun and the other assistants to join them.

There were still some checkpoints and procedures for entering the country, and it took a long time to pass through. Once they got on the car sent by the film crew to pick them up, Xiao Yun said to Shen Li: "A-Li, the accommodation conditions for Director Li Xiao's crew are relatively average. It's just a business hotel close to the filming location, which is more convenient. If you have any needs at that time, you can tell me directly."

"Alright, I know. Filming starts the day after tomorrow, right?"

"Tomorrow. We flew for a whole day on the plane." Xiao Yun reminded.

Shen Li realized this and looked at Guang Rong, saying: "I start filming tomorrow. Do you want to look around by yourself, or come to the set with me to take a look?"

"Can I enter the set?" Guang Rong's eyes lit up: "Can I watch you guys filming?"

"If you want to go, I'll take you to see it. But there's nothing fun about it; you can just go to see something fresh."

Guang Rong nodded repeatedly: "Go, go, go. I've never seen a crew filming before. Sister, you only think there's nothing fun about it because you film often. I'll definitely think it's fun."

There was nothing wrong with that statement, so Shen Li smiled and nodded. She had also been very excited the first time she joined a crew.

Once they arrived at the hotel, Shen Li knew just how average the accommodation conditions Xiao Yun mentioned really were.

Foreign business hotels naturally do not reach the standard of domestic star-rated hotels, but they can barely compare to budget hotels; the cramped, oppressive nature of the bathrooms is something Shen Li has a high tolerance for, after all, she grew up in an ordinary family.

It's just that while she could endure it, some people couldn't.

When they went down to pick up their luggage, they happened to see someone arguing with the crew's staff.

"That bathroom is too small. The vanity can't even hold our Ke'er's skincare products. When the closet is opened, there's a smell inside. Can clothes even be hung in there? Won't they stink later?"

"And it's so close to the elevator. Don't you know that rooms close to the elevator are the noisiest?"

"We communicated with you before, hoping to stay in a global high-end brand hotel. It's one thing that you downsized it to this, but you should at least satisfy the basics, right? Is that room even thirty square meters? Our Ke'er usually stays in 'Marriott' hotels!"

The person arguing was a middle-aged man approaching forty. His voice was already somewhat sharp, and coupled with his high pitch while in a fit of anger, he appeared very noisy, and his voice was very ear-piercing.

It had nothing to do with Shen Li and the others; they were just joining in the fun to listen, but ended up listening with their brows tightly furrowed.

"Who is this person?" A-Pan couldn't help but look at Xiao Yun and ask.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun said: "He should be Xu Ke'er's manager or assistant or something."

"Xu Ke'er?" A-Pan frowned: "Isn't she also a young actress? Is she that big of a deal? Daring to be picky in Director Li Xiao's crew?" ===== CHAPTER 738 =====
