Does anything hurt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Summer clothes were naturally thin; the young girl smelled the faint scent of soap on his shirt, which, mixed with the warm breath from Lu Kuan’s speech hitting her face, made her shyly squirm her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei asked naively, \"Lu Kuan, are we both dead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu looked at her speechlessly: \"Yes, we're heading to the Bridge of Helplessness now. The bus is off duty, so we're taking a taxi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taxi driver in front chuckled; this young man was truly a smooth talker!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young girl had bumped her head when she fell and had lost quite a bit of blood, so she was still feeling dizzy and didn't catch the sarcasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still remembered why she had gone to find Lu Kuan in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lu Kuan, can you please stop being angry with Mom and the others? I still want to act in movies; I want to be a real actor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu looked at her tearful, adorable appearance and said with a straight face, \"I have already decided to withdraw from Red Star Dock. From now on, you have nothing to do with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei could no longer control herself and burst into aggrieved sobs, which gave Lu Kuan a start—this little girl really couldn't take a joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't know that Liu Yifei had been holding it in for a long time; she was not yet an adult and could not influence the arrangements made by her mother and Cheng Jing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two of them were plotting to delay the cashing out of shares, all she could do was find Lu Kuan to tip him off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... wuwu, I don't want to leave you. I want to learn acting from you, I still want to act in movies, wuwu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan looked at her with disdain as she wailed with her mouth open in his arms, snot bubbles even appearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this tear-streaked face, why couldn't she act like this when she was being bullied by Chen Guanxi on set that day!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crying is useless. Your acting is too poor; you are still far from meeting my requirements.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei’s eyes were red: \"I will work hard! I will learn from Sister Mei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't that what you want? I know how Fan Bingbing and the others please you. I can do anything except that, and I can even help you make money! I will work very hard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young girl was making a desperate final plea, and in her slip of the tongue, she spilled all the dirty secrets of that scumbag...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taxi driver was excited: Holy crap! Jin Suo? There's gossip!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan frowned: Holy crap! How does this little girl know about that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu held a tissue and used the excuse of wiping her nose to stop her from babbling further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, looking at this howling, it didn't seem like she was actually hurt; she was more full of life than he was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan put all his strength into trying to place her on the seat next to him, but he didn't expect Liu Yifei to clamp onto him tightly and refuse to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You promise to keep teaching me acting and take me to film movies, then I'll get down!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, I was just teasing you, get down now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her bout of unreasonable pestering, Liu Yifei finally regained her spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the intimate posture between herself and Lu Kuan, her pretty face flushed red, and she hurriedly turned over to sit properly on the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stole a glance at Lu Kuan, who was exaggeratedly rubbing his thigh, clearly mocking her weight again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young girl was so angry her teeth itched: \"I just remembered that I saved you! You should unconditionally agree to my request!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu nodded in agreement: \"I'll count it as a work-related injury. I'll reimburse your medical expenses later, and buy two jin of eggs from the supermarket for you to take home and nourish yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhh! You're making me so mad!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei could no longer tolerate Lu Kuan’s lazy and rogue temperament; she grabbed his arm and bit down hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu instinctively wanted to lift his elbow to push her away, but fearing he might hurt her, he sucked in a cold breath and pushed against Liu Yifei’s smooth forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the two rows of exquisite tooth marks on his arm, the deepest ones were from her little canine teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's over, I'm not clean anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're even. I don't need you to repay me; I hurt my arm, and you hurt your arm too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did the young girl feel at ease, and she triumphantly raised an eyebrow at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The driver steadily parked the car in front of the emergency room, and Lu Kuan supported Liu Yifei as they got out and walked into the Railway General Hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Railway General Hospital was the Century Altar Hospital of later generations; it wasn't until around 2004, when the unit was officially transferred to the Beijing municipal government, that this hospital, which had belonged to the railway system for 89 years, was officially renamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A nurse carefully cleaned Liu Yifei’s wound, applied medicine, and finished bandaging it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan saw that the wound wasn't deep and shouldn't leave a scar, otherwise the underage little Liu would be \"99% new with minor defects.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't ask, if you ask, it's not for sale! Use it yourself when you're an adult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Xiaoli rushed into the emergency room like a madwoman, eagerly pulling her daughter over to check her from head to toe, and began to sob while cupping her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xixi, why are you so impulsive! If something happened to you, what would I do... wuwu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yifei had just been bickering with Lu Kuan in the car, but seeing her mother’s heart-wrenching display, she hugged her and cried, feeling a lingering fear in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jing also walked in; seeing Lu Kuan’s expression, he wanted to say something, but felt it wasn't the right time, so he went over to comfort the mother and daughter first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan coughed lightly, and the three of them looked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This person was likely targeting me today. Little Liu was injured while trying to save me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have already prepared an EP for Sister Mei; find a time for her to choose songs and practice. Additionally, the lead role in this 'Sword of the Immortal' will be reserved for her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little Liu, comfort your mother well, go back and rest early, and wait for my notification.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm leaving first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jing nodded silently and saw Lu Kuan out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director Lu, don't worry about the shares; there won't be any mistakes this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Lu Kuan had just made his stance clear, he would return the favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Jing dared not treat him as an ordinary young man or director anymore; how could an average person be so calm and composed after just experiencing a life-or-death crisis?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, the mysterious metaphysical aura surrounding Lu Kuan was becoming increasingly heavy...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how to explain that cold-faced youth who appeared at the perfect moment and kicked Lu Changchun over with one blow?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu took Cheng Jing’s driver’s car to a hotel near his apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Wenwen had already completed the handover with Wang Yongle, and Wenjie Culture had officially obtained the adaptation rights for \"Sword of the Immortal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan took the elevator to the 8th floor and knocked on the door gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cash courier from Xiangjiang and the cold-faced valet were eating a late-night snack and drinking beer with Zhuang Xu; seeing their employer arrive, they stood up, feeling a bit at a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boss Lu waved his hand to tell them to sit down quickly, opened a can of beer himself, and clinked it with the valet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother, thanks for earlier. Without you, I definitely wouldn't have been able to avoid that knife today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold-faced young man seemed to have social anxiety and couldn't squeeze out a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Kuan smiled: \"What should I call you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A-Fei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1461,"2026-06-20T06:05:17.358Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","769d6a2f47fb34a965770367df7388ec0b99cb3b0bf074b1eacf0dd70e35d792","the-playboy-of-huayu-how-did-a-celestial-immorta-chapter-97","the-playboy-of-huayu-how-did-a-celestial-immorta-chapter-95",343,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-playboy-of-huayu-how-did-a-celestial-immorta-cover.jpg"]
