Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Xu Ji could understand the "washing set", but when Zhang Yuyan mentioned the "practical suggestions on clothing matching" and "makeup artist" later, she was confused: It's just daily life, do we still need a makeup artist?

But she learned from her experience of talking with Yuan Ke and did not ask on the spot. Instead, she followed Zhang Yuyan and started her first day of life in Shuoguo Manor!

Last night she and Li Shuo stayed in the extra-large master bedroom on the first floor. This master bedroom alone covers an area of more than 80 square meters, which is equivalent to a small family home. It also has many complex functions. In addition to the extra-large bed and the matching super-luxurious bathroom and toilet, there is also a spacious loop-type cloakroom next to it.

Xu Ji was led to the bathroom by Zhang Yuyan. Only then did she realize what a toiletry set was. An electric toothbrush and toothpaste were the basics, and there were also sets of cleansing, skincare, and maintenance cosmetics in front of her. Zhang Yuyan stood slightly away from her and said gently,
"If my presence here causes you any inconvenience, just let me know... I think someone of your high status in South Korea must be accustomed to being served, so you came here in person. Actually, new guests at Shuoguo Manor only receive essential services. Later, we record their behavior and customize a service template for them, including personnel and so on..."

What she said was quite detailed, which made Xu Ji feel as if she was in a dream: during these two days in China, she finally got back the feeling of being the president!
At this moment, Xu Ji almost shed tears.

Thinking of the person who made her shed so many tears last night, Xu Ji turned and asked, "Where is Shuo Ge'er?"

"Boss is doing morning exercises outside. He's always up early in the manor. Hehe, you should be familiar with his physical fitness..."

Zhang Yuyan squeezed toothpaste on her and handed it to Xu Ji while chattering in a homely manner.

Normally, washing up in the morning should be refreshing, but after listening to Zhang Yuyan's words, Xu Ji suddenly felt sticky all over. After brushing her teeth, she immediately went into the bathroom...

When Xu Ji came out wrapped in a bath towel, Zhang Yuyan was already waiting outside with a hair dryer and other supplies. After some greeting, Zhang Yuyan took her to the cloakroom, where two secretaries were already waiting there, each holding two sets of clothes.

Zhang Yuyan introduced: "Today is April 4th. The weather in Lenghai has started to warm up. The temperature..."

"In light of this situation, I've prepared two outfits for you: one for going out, and one for staying in the manor... You choose which one..."

Xu Ji was not in a hurry to choose. She looked back and saw that the circular cloakroom was full of various big brands, and they were divided into sections according to brands such as Hermes, Chanel, Gucci, etc. At first glance, there were even more luxury goods here than in the store. It was outrageous!
"What about Qiu Cixian? Did she also experience the same treatment just now?" Xu Ji asked abruptly. After fighting with Qiu Cixian last night, she no longer had any discrimination against "actors" in her heart, but she still had a competitive spirit.

"Ms. Qiu had an event today, so she got up and left early..."

Hearing this answer, Xu Ji was a little discouraged, but soon, with Zhang Yuyan's introduction, she regained her spirits and concentrated on understanding all the luxury of Shuoguo Manor...

During the meeting, Li Shuo came in. Seeing that Xu Ji and Zhang Yuyan were getting along well, he felt relieved and sat next to her to chat for a while, mainly asking about the situation in South Korea. Xu Ji accepted all kinds of services from Zhang Yuyan while answering...

The Shuoguo Group has developed very rapidly in South Korea, mainly due to the rapid development of Shuoguo Asset's real estate business. The number of legal services received by Xu's Law Firm from Shuoguo Asset each month has increased from 10 per month to more than 3 per month in March.

Furthermore, Shuoguo Culture (South Korea) and Shuoguo Trade (South Korea) are both doing well. Xu Ji even said that when she signed the renovation contract with Shuoguo Trade, she visited its store in Gangnam District. The hard decoration there was basically completed, and the exterior had the framework of a luxury store. All that was left was some soft decoration before the official opening...

"Yan'er, are you okay?"

Until the end, Li Shuo mentioned a sensitive topic as if inadvertently.

Xu Ji rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "If you want to know if she's any good, why don't you go to South Korea and see for yourself?"

This still sounded like a rebuke, but Li Shuo was actually overjoyed. If he had asked Min Yuerou about Bai Lu's condition, she would definitely not have answered like that. Instead, she would have immediately become extremely wary of him. Even after he had already eaten Bai Lu, he didn't dare to tell Min Yuerou about their relationship...

In comparison, Xu Ji was much more open in this regard! No, to be more precise, perhaps her current attitude had changed after being developed last night. After all, she used to be quite old-fashioned and conservative.

With this in mind, Li Shuo only wanted to further develop Xu Ji and make her more "fashionable" and "open-minded". After thinking for a while, he said, "The drama filmed by Qiu Cixian will be released tonight. Come with me to watch it..."

"No," Xu Ji curled her lips and refused.

"Hehe, are you afraid that your charm will be overwhelmed by Qiu Cixian? Don't worry, I have a way to deal with Qiu Cixian. Do you want to know?"

Li Shuo's mysterious words finally aroused Xu Ji's curiosity, but she did not agree immediately.

Li Shuo didn't force it. Seeing that Zhang Yuyan was about to make the next arrangements for her, he said, "Don't do these things for now. Go have breakfast, then do your hair, take care of your face, and take care of your figure..."

Of course, Xu Ji wouldn't listen to Li Shuo. The projects Zhang Yuyan had created hit the common sore spots for all women. This was simply the life template they had always dreamed of. Xu Ji was sure that any woman in Shuoguo Manor could go without food or water, or even sleep. After all, there was the monster Li Shuo...

Li Shuo just yelled casually, and when he saw that the woman didn't respond, he turned and left the room.

He had nothing to do today, just waiting for the crew's online premiere tonight. It was still early, and Li Shuo had been staying in the manor for many days, with nothing to do. He was just thinking about going on a date with the fish when Junko Iwasaki called...

"Haha, welcome, welcome. Miss Iwasaki actually came to my Shuoguo Manor. What a rare guest..."

Junko Iwasaki called Li Shuo because she came to visit directly. After he hung up the phone and came to the square in front of the manor, he saw a small convoy of three Rolls-Royces driving in. Then, Junko Iwasaki and the Yu brothers and sisters got out of the car. In addition to the three of them, Miho Kurokawa from the Iwasaki Cooking Academy was standing next to Junko Iwasaki.

"Mr. Li, I'm sorry to bother you. I heard that you recently made a big deal, so I couldn't help but beg Miss Yu to come along."

Iwasaki Junko's words made it clear to Li Shuo that this operation was led by Yu Nuannuan.

Li Shuo looked at the latter, and this Miss Yu said quite frankly, "There's nothing I can do, you're very busy, so I could only come to find you. It just so happens that my brother and Miss Iwasaki haven't gotten together for a long time, so we decided to gather them at your manor. Brother Shuo, you don't mind, do you?" "Of course not, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Li Shuo really didn't mind. He was not a pure otaku and still liked the feeling of gathering with friends, especially since he owned a super luxurious manor.

The only thing that made him uncomfortable was that he also heard other meanings in Yu Nuannuan's words: this first socialite in Lenghai is quite interesting. The secretary's office has repeatedly made appointments with her, but she always found excuses to refuse. But now she came here on her own initiative.

Yu Nuannuan seemed to have really made up her mind: she refused to be alone with him. Even if she really wanted to be together, she would bring her brother Yu Chengcheng and even Iwasaki Junko with her...

"Long time no see, Chengcheng... Hello, Miss Kurokawa... Come on, come on, everyone, please come in, let's go to the living room first..."

"Wow, this place is so big and beautiful..."

"Miss Kurokawa, you haven't been here before, right? I'll show you around later."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Li."

Amidst the noise, Shuoguo Manor suddenly seemed to become lively. Then, Li Shuo asked Yuan Ke to be responsible for settling everyone. He actually left this group of second-generation, rich and beautiful women behind and took Kurokawa Miho to visit the manor: Yu Nuannuan, you want to avoid me, so in that case, I will avoid you too!
"Is this the garden of Shuoguo Manor? What a vast sea of flowers... Living here must be like living in heaven..."

Miho Kurokawa had no idea that she was being used as a tool. After being brought to the side garden by Li Shuo, she became completely active. She ran forward a few steps quickly, wandered in the sea of flowers, turned in circles, and hummed a familiar melody.

Li Shuo watched this scene with a smile, also feeling that time was good: Seriously speaking, he had even spent more time with Kurokawa Miho than with her master, Iwasaki Junko. After all, she was the store manager at the Academy Store, and Li Shuo would often go over to eat or relax. He remembered that Kurokawa Miho was also a pipa master...

As soon as he thought of this, Li Shuo suddenly had an idea and shouted, "Miho, what are you humming? Why does it sound so familiar to me? But it doesn't seem to be pop music from outside."

"Hehe, Mr. Li, I've finally composed the rhythm for the classical music we polished together before. What I'm humming is the pipa version of the music. Does it sound good?"

Kurokawa Miho turned around and walked over to him, grabbing his hand and saying as if offering a treasure: "It's precisely because I finally wrote it and wanted to share it with you that I shamelessly followed Miss Iwasaki..."

It was a very ordinary sentence, but it carried deep emotion: As a vassal of Iwasaki Junko, Kurokawa Miho's behavior of actively making requests was probably a rare experience in her life.

Li Shuo was moved by this. He grabbed her hand and turned to walk towards the auxiliary building. "So that's how it is, Miho. You are so thoughtful! But I know that the music you write is absolutely the best in the world. Come, let's go to the recording studio. I want to hear you play the music..."

"Um"

Kurokawa Miho's music is actually not the Chinese style that Li Shuo is familiar with, or the South Korean hip-hop, but a combination of Chinese and Japanese classical instruments to create elegant pure music.

In his previous life, Li Shuo didn't like this kind of pure music very much, but this one by Kurokawa Miho was an exception, because the rhythm she just hummed was clearly the divine song that impressed Li Shuo the most...

Unfortunately, Divine Comedy is still a work in progress, and even the instrumental score is not complete yet!

There was no pipa in the recording studio, but it didn't matter. Kurokawa Miho always brought her instrument with her. But after she finished playing, although it had an extremely strong charm, Li Shuo still felt that something was missing. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure out that trace of inspiration. Finally, seeing that it was noon, he had no choice but to take Kurokawa Miho back to the main building lobby.

As he walked to the door, he heard the music of "Unforgiven" coming from inside. Li Shuo was suddenly stunned. He felt a flash of inspiration in his mind and finally realized that Kurokawa Miho's pure music lacked modern electronic music, so it did not match his impression of the "future divine song"!
"Mr. Li?" At this time, Kurokawa Miho called out from behind. Li Shuo turned around and shouted excitedly, "Miho, I want to give this piece of music of yours a name. Is that okay?"

"Of course, is this what Li Jun just thought of?"

"Well, let's call it 'Pure Land of Bliss'. This piece of instrumental music has that 'Japanese Zen' feel to it..."

"Pure Land of Bliss?! What a name!"

Kurokawa Miho's eyes were bright as she immersed herself in the name Li Shuo had given to her pipa piece. The more she listened to it, the more appropriate it became. It was simply perfect!
Li Shuo's excitement faded after he was told Kurokawa Miho's name. The main reason was that the version he had now was still far from the version people would hear later. First, there were no lyrics, and second, the score only contained ancient instruments, lacking the chords of modern electronic music. Therefore, "Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss" was not even a semi-finished product, but only "one-third finished"...

At this time, seeing Li Shuo and Kurokawa Miho walk in, Iwasaki Junko said with a smile: "When did you two become so close? You were gone for a long time and left all of us here!"

Yu Chengcheng also winked at Li Shuo, but Yu Nuannuan had a resentful look on her face. As a smart person, she could naturally feel that this was Li Shuo's "counterattack" against her.

"No, we just happened to be talking about Miho's new work, so I took her to play it... Oh, by the way, Miss Yu said I made a big deal? How come I didn't know..."

Just as Yu Nuannuan was about to speak, the entrance door opened and Xu Ji's voice came before she even arrived: "Shuo Ge'er, are there any guests at home?"

Upon hearing this opening statement, Li Shuo understood that Xu Ji, like most women, wanted to assert her sovereignty, but...

"So many guests? Are they all your friends back home, Brother Shuo?"

As they spoke, Xu Ji entered, her gaze first falling on the elegant Iwasaki Junko. In that instant, Xu Ji suddenly felt as if she had encountered her natural nemesis, which sent a shiver down her spine. (End of Chapter)
