A perfect life begins with changing the timeline.

When Liu Qianmeizi was taken to the hotel, Liu Xiaoli came down to greet her.

Upon seeing Li Mu, he smiled and invited him:

"Xiao Li, would you like to come up and sit for a while?"

"No way."

Li Mu shook his head:

"I'm going back to rest now, Sister Liu, bye-bye."

"Okay, bye-bye."

Liu Xiaoli was just being polite, after all, it was already past ten o'clock.

When Li Mu returned home, he saw his girlfriend doing her skincare routine:

"I'm going to take a shower."

"Hmm, it was sent back?"

"right."\

"Did you talk about anything on the way?"

Li Mu briefly explained the situation, and General Fan's face flushed red and then turned pale.

Good heavens...

Wang Yuyan.

Tsk tsk.

Her eyes were filled with sighs.

But they didn't say anything more, since this kind of thing is very common in the entertainment industry. The treatment of actors with powerful connections is worlds apart from those without.

Li Mu finished showering and was still taking care of her skin.

So, half-lying on the bed, he took the initiative to speak:

"I have an idea about your leggings, shall we talk about it?"

"Let's chat."

Fan, looking in the makeup mirror, frantically slapped her face, clearly not paying attention.

"I think your understanding of what kind of pants is flawed. Leggings are wrong. Originally, besides thinking that cutting off the leg openings looked better, wasn't your design primarily about pursuing a sense of fashion? Leggings aren't inherently fashionable. But what if you changed your perspective and made them into athletic pants? After all, isn't the purpose of wearing these tight-fitting leggings for exercise?"

"so?"\

She still didn't turn around.

Until her boyfriend said:

"Yoga. Since you like yoga, why not turn it into a piece of exercise clothing suitable for wearing during yoga sessions?"

"?"

The patting motion paused.

Fan Bingbing, her face glistening with moisture, subconsciously turned her head:

"Yoga?"

"Yes, yoga."

Li Mu looked at his girlfriend and nodded.

His eyes sparkled with the fascination and admiration of someone gazing at a top-quality bull or horse.

……\

"Baby?"\

"..."\

"……Baby!"\

"...Huh? Hmm?...What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Li Mu, already half asleep, was suddenly called out to someone. He instinctively opened his eyes and groggily looked at his girlfriend lying face to face with him.

"According to your idea, shouldn't we have our own garment factory, and dedicated management personnel? Oh right, and design too...aren't all of these necessary? Wouldn't the investment be a bit too large? But I also think your idea is particularly insightful..."

"..."\

Li Mu blinked his empty eyes, listening to her rambling on and on...

Finally, in frustration, she turned around and pulled the blanket over her head.

Damn it, you're insane!

Why are you thinking about yoga pants in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?!

Wasn't this topic already discussed a few hours ago?

I've already told you the bathrobe guy's business model, what else do you want me to say?

Go to sleep already.

That's what he thought, but for Fan Bingbing, this night was destined to be a sleepless one.

In the end, she didn't even know when she fell asleep; she only felt that her mind was filled with the name her boyfriend had defined as "yoga pants," as well as the subsequent business prospects, model, preparations, and so on.

I thought about it all night.

So much so that she didn't get up the next day.

It was just past ten o'clock when Liu Qianmeizi, carrying a DV camera, came looking for her, and she finally woke up groggily.

She definitely couldn't talk about these work-related things in front of her child.

And just then, seeing the girl carrying her change of clothes, she said:

"Come on, let's do yoga first... then we'll take a shower, and I'll teach you how to take care of yourself. Baby, why don't you... go play ball?"

Li Mu rolled his eyes.

It's as if she deliberately stayed behind.

"You're not going to eat lunch, are you?"

"You ate it yourself. I'll have Xiaomi pack some dishes to bring over later. Your meal was too high in calories."

"Okay. I'm going to play now. Call me when you're done."

"Um."\

After being kicked out of the house, Li Mu didn't call out to Zhang Shuang this time.

Instead, they went directly to the club and inquired about the nature of the private lessons.

Then, under the guidance of a private coach at the club who had previously competed in the Asian Games, he began his daily training.

……\

Liu Qianmeizi returned home around 3 PM.

It comes with a complete set of skincare and maintenance knowledge, as well as a full set of basic skills practice videos on a DV camera.

Then, on the 4th, after calling Fan Bingbing, he boarded a plane and returned to the United States. The girl was going back for her graduation ceremony and would probably be back around the 20th… Unfortunately, the two of them probably wouldn't be able to meet this time.

My girlfriend had already joined the film crew by then.

This minor incident did not disrupt Fan Bingbing's vacation schedule. Li Mu had already resumed his work routine on the 4th, continuing his investigation of Liu Xiaoqing at the Jin Huan Hotel.

She had absolutely nothing to do during the day.

But that doesn't mean she's alright...

Ever since my boyfriend confirmed that I'd renamed these leggings my "creation" to yoga...

She's been thinking about this for the past few days.

Now that the May Day holiday is over, and filled with questions about the clothing industry, she decided to schedule a consultation with a professional.

Wei Xiaojun.

The clothing designer at Yichun is also the head of the design team for the women's clothing line launched by Yichun this summer.

When we were shooting promotional posters for Yichun last time, the two of us got along really well.

She wanted to ask about these things today... but not in her own name.

She still has two years left on her endorsement contract with Yichun. Although the contract doesn't stipulate that she can only wear Yichun and not other clothes during those two years... she can't openly say that she wants to start her own clothing brand.

If word gets out about this kind of outrageous behavior, his reputation will be ruined.

She even planned that her mother and boyfriend would jointly hold shares in the Fanli brand.

Let me absolve myself of this for now.

For at least the next two years, it can't be related to me.

As for how much it costs to build a clothing brand, from setting up a factory to opening stores... she doesn't have a clear idea yet. But it doesn't matter...

She's rich.

Thanks to her boyfriend, she made a lot of money on NetEase stock.

And the number continues to increase.

ah!!!\

My boyfriend, who's like a god of wealth... I love him to death!

Soon, she met Wei Xiaojun, and after exchanging pleasantries, she immediately launched into a standard script:

"I have a friend..."

……\

"Fatty, I'm not going back to the dorm tonight."

"What a coincidence, I'm not replying either."

Looking at Sui Kuan's smug expression, Li Mu rolled his eyes:

"I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute, what's the rush?"

Sui Kuan grabbed him directly:

"Liu Xiaoqing is holding a press conference for 'The Goddess of Luo' tomorrow. Are we really not going?"

"The Goddess of the Luo River" is a TV series produced by Liu Xiaoqing.

Although news has surfaced that she is under tax investigation, her personal freedom cannot be restricted unless an arrest warrant is issued.

Well, that TV series should have finished filming, and she'll be attending it tomorrow.

Wu Han originally suggested that Li Mu and Sui Kuan go on the interview, but Li Mu declined.

"No, I'm not going. Liu Xiaoqing remembers us. Why would you go and let her yell at you? Why make things difficult for yourself?"

"If she really curses at us, wouldn't that be news too?"

"...Think about it, she's about to be arrested, so there's no point in her cursing you. Let's just follow the investigation's progress."

At this point, Li Mu thought for a moment and added:

"Also, although a lot of agencies are trying to curry favor with us right now, this kind of thing definitely has an expiration date. Once this storm passes, our status as honored guests will definitely be gone. Keep that in mind, don't put on airs. And... absolutely no taking on any projects related to GG, understand? Don't be fooled by how much our company's consumer guide is going around this Golden Week holiday; my side hasn't made a single move... get it?"

"clear!"\

Sui Kuan nodded heavily.

He certainly understood what Li Mu meant.

This May Day, the Southern Metropolis Daily launched a supplement called "Southern Metropolis Consumer Guide".

It's full of GGs...\

It was given away free with the newspaper.

These guys earn close to five million a day.

The May Day Golden Week holiday lasted four days, and it was released for all four days.

The cost of GG alone was twenty million... that's absolutely outrageous.

Sui Kuan was astonished upon hearing the news, but Li Mu remained remarkably calm.

As the "Bathrobe Guy" has already stated, the Southern Metropolis Daily's share of the profits from GG (gay/sexual misconduct) this year totaled 12 million.

In other words, everyone made money.

It was precisely this 12 million yuan bonus that aroused jealousy and resentment, leading to a whistleblower report and an investigation by higher authorities.

What Brother Bie said is absolutely right.

There's nothing inherently prohibited; it's simply because the principles haven't been violated.

The consequences of actually touching that... even if it hasn't happened yet, are already obvious.

Just then, Sui Kuan suddenly sighed:

"Sigh. I just hope this Liu Xiaoqing matter can be resolved a little longer."

This news was provided by Bie Yan, and the deadline for the report was actually the date of Liu Xiaoqing's formal arrest.

Arrest him, the two of them produce a summary of the investigation, and that's the end of the news story.

What happens to Liu Xiaoqing in prison is a matter of privacy and cannot be reported in the newspapers unless Liu Xiaoqing consents.

But even a fool would think that the other party was being incredibly generous by not spitting at them; how could they possibly allow it to be published in the newspaper?

"Why? Are you reluctant to part with Feng Yuan?"

"That's not it... the main thing is that once I go back, I'll have to face Zhou Long. Life's going to be tough from now on!"

Fatty Sui looked conflicted.

But Li Mu had a good attitude.

Zhou Long?

No matter how much they try to make things difficult for themselves, it won't last long.

But he couldn't say that to the fat man, so he could only pat Sui Kuan on the shoulder:

"Alright, no pain, no gain. Let's take it one step at a time. As long as we follow Brother Bie, we can't go wrong!"

"……Um!"\
