Chapter 198 Happy Xiao Li

"Let's order first. I haven't eaten all day."

As he spoke, Jin Qixuan handed over the menu.

Li Zhien took the menu and asked curiously:
"Didn't you eat just now?"

"I didn't eat a single bite. I left some food in my stomach."

He's quite well behaved. It's worth my waiting for so long.

Li Zhien curled the corners of her mouth and lowered her head to draw on the menu.

He chose two dishes that Jin Qixuan liked, and one dish that he liked, then handed the menu to Jin Qixuan.

"Why only order three dishes? No need to save me money."

He helped someone borrow 50 billion yuan, but when he treated a dinner party, they only had three dishes. It's embarrassing enough to tell others about it.

Therefore, Jin Qixuan took the menu, lowered his head and selected three more dishes, making a lucky 66, with the main theme of borrowing money smoothly.

Then, he pressed the call service button.

"I'm on a diet, so I can't eat too much."

"Why are you losing weight? Where have you gained weight?"

Jin Qixuan glanced at her thin arm with a puzzled look on his face, and felt that he could break it with a little effort.

"Because my new album is coming out soon, I want to meet my fans in my best form."

At this time, the waiter who received the service call came in and took the menu.

Although she looked serious on the surface, anyone with a discerning eye could see the curiosity of gossip in her eyes.

After the waiter left, Jin Qixuan gave her a thumbs up and said:

"You don't need to lose weight at all. You already have the most perfect appearance. It's totally great!"

Li Zhien snorted proudly:
"Huh, you're so sweet, you want to ask me for something?"

"It has nothing to do with whether it's a matter of fact or not. I'm telling the truth."

Hearing this, Lee Ji-eun smiled slightly and just waited quietly to see how long he could pretend.

"By the way, how's your album going?"

Li Zhien thought about it and replied:
"I have almost finished preparing my solo songs, and there are still a few songs that I need to collaborate with other singers."

"Cooperation? You still need cooperation? Who are you helping to alleviate poverty?"

"What poverty alleviation? GD Oppa is very talented!"

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan shrugged and said nothing.

Although he acknowledged that he had musical talent, Jin Qixuan really couldn't appreciate it.

Compared to GD, Kim Ki-hyun prefers to listen to Park Jae-bum. At least he has muscles and is manly enough.

"By the way, when are you free, let's rehearse the stage play."

Jin Qixuan thought about his recent schedule and said:

"I will definitely have to do promotional roadshows every day during the first week after the movie premieres. Goblin will also be aired in a few days, and I will have to participate in after-sales activities then. As the year draws to a close, the products I endorse will also be on sale, and I need to cooperate with the merchants to attend events. So I have time from 5 to 7 a.m. every day."

Li Zhien: "..."

A good five to seven.

For night owl Lee Ji-eun, waking up at five o'clock is simply killing her.

Seeing her speechless face, Jin Qixuan asked considerately:

"Why, is it too early?"

"It's not just too early, sometimes I don't go to bed until five!"

Jin Qixuan: “…”

What kind of divine schedule is it to go to bed at 5 o'clock...

The two fell silent for a moment.

After a while, Jin Qixuan suggested:
"How about I contact you after work every day, and we can check in on the same day?
Since it's just to borrow money, it's okay to work harder.

But he felt that his service should be better, so Jin Qixuan added:
"If the schedules really don't match, we can rehearse via video."

What a great video rehearsal...

Li Zhien held back her laughter, nodded, and took the initiative to ask:
"Okay. By the way, how did you see the house today?"

Well, since you are so proactive, I won’t be polite to you.

"Very good, I liked it at first sight."

Then, Jin Qixuan said with gestures, "This house costs 120 billion, and it will cost about 10 billion, including all the other expenses. I have 30 billion, and my family gave me 50 billion, so I still need 50 billion. I want to borrow 50 billion from you so that I don't have to bother two people. Do you think it's okay?"

50 billion is a huge sum of money. Even if Lee Ji-eun doesn't lend it, Kim Ki-hyeon won't be angry.

After all, there are very few people who have 50 billion in liquid cash.

If Lee Ji-eun doesn't lend the money, then Kim Ki-hyeon can only take it from Old Kim.

There is no other way. After all, the deposit has been paid, so I have to buy it.

However, Lee Ji-eun didn't even hesitate, as if she was waiting for him to say this, and nodded in agreement readily.

Then, without mentioning the IOU or the interest, he changed the subject and asked, "Are you planning to renovate your house? Or are you planning to move in right away?"

"I plan to change the wallpaper in the master bedroom to liquid, add some equipment and sandbags to the gym, put a display cabinet in the lobby, and then... I'll invite you to visit when I'm done."

Since Lee Ji-eun didn't mention interest, Kim Ki-hyeon didn't plan to give it.

There are many ways to repay a favor, and it doesn't necessarily have to be by paying a large amount of interest.

It’s as if Lee Ji-eun is short of that little money.

In fact, Lee Ji-eun is similar to Kim Ki-hyun, and they also keep their money in their own hands.

On the one hand, they don’t understand investment, and on the other hand, they are afraid of being cheated in investment.

After all, there are many scammers now who specifically target artists with low educational qualifications to commit financial fraud.

For example, some time ago, Kim Taeyeon was cheated out of 10 billion by a real estate company in the name of investing in land development.

Therefore, Li Zhien’s investment understanding is to buy houses, buy houses, and buy houses again.

If it wasn't for the purpose of keeping an eye on Jin Qixuan, she would even want to buy the apartment upstairs as an investment.

As for the IOU, Lee Ji-eun doesn't take it so seriously.

And Kim Ki-hyeon can't deny it even if he wants to, because he has Kim Jong-kook as a guarantor.

If she really can't pay it back, Lee Ji-eun can accept sexual compensation.

"Okay, then don't forget to say hello to your neighbors when you're decorating... Oh, yes, my neighbor is me..."

Li Zhien slapped her forehead and showed a silly smile.

Jin Qixuan nodded and said:
"Yeah, I asked upstairs, and no one lives there."

"It's too late now. I'll make an appointment with the bank to transfer the money to you tomorrow."

"Okay. Eat quickly. You look so thin, as if you can't afford to eat. Eat more."

"..."

You are so good, Jin Qixuan, your true colors were revealed after you borrowed the money, right?
The two of them ate and chatted, and when they had almost finished, they prepared to leave.

Jin Qixuan packed up the leftover dishes.

"Thank you for borrowing the money. I will pay you back as soon as possible."

"There's no rush for this. I won't need it for the time being anyway. I don't know how to invest and manage money, so I can only put it in the bank and earn interest."

That being said, Jin Qixuan definitely can’t delay returning the money.

50 billion is a huge sum of money even if it is deposited in the bank and earns interest.

After saying goodbye to Lee Ji-eun, Kim Ki-hyeon called Kim Jong-kook on his way home.

Old Jin answered the phone at one o'clock in the morning with a very aggressive and irritable tone.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Jin Qixuan made him dare not speak anymore.

"You're dead if you disturb my sleep without a good reason."

"Um...Uncle, I have borrowed 50 billion from my friends, so you don't have to run away."

Hearing this, Kim Jong Kook on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, as if he was turning on the phone.

Then, he quickly asked a series of questions:
"You borrowed it yourself? A friend? Which of your friends is so rich? Is it Jo In-sung?"

"It's not Inseong hyung, I borrowed it from IU."

"IU!? Are you close enough to IU to borrow 50 billion won casually?"

"Uh, it's just okay, right...?"

"Okay, I get it. Yes, you should pay them back as soon as possible, but don't let them ask you for money. If you do that, your friendship will be over no matter what kind of relationship you have."

It's very true. Since ancient times, borrowing money is the most hurtful thing.

"Okay, I understand, uncle. Can you come with me to transfer the property tomorrow morning?"

"Okay, I'm going to sleep first."
