Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Li Haoyu was resting in bed.

Just as Li Haoyu had predicted, Xu Hongdou was now truly in turmoil.

She was certain that Li Haoyu had indeed returned to his room.

Xu Hongdou really decided to take a shower. Her mind was a mess, and she couldn't think straight. She figured she might as well take a hot shower to relax.

Xu Hongdou took off her coat and walked to the mirror in front of the bathroom to look at herself. She had to admit she felt a pang of emotion; aside from finding a boyfriend right after graduation...

I haven't really had much romantic experience, let alone that relationship that was practically a long-distance one. Even though we both live in the capital, we barely see each other once or twice a year.

Even the final breakup was conducted via text message.

This made Xu Hongdou think of something.

Chen Nanxing often repeats a phrase to himself:

"Xu Hongdou, sometimes I really don't understand what you're thinking?"

"You're so pretty and have such a great figure, why are you always hiding it and being so stingy? If you keep going like this, your body will go moldy before you even get to use it."

"What a waste!"

Xu Hongdou looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly realized that her older sister and Chen Nanxing were right. Perhaps she really should start a relationship.

Xu Hongdou sighed deeply.

She decided to take a shower first, since she had been in the RV for so long and really needed to relax.

Xu Hongdou gave her hair a quick rinse; she didn't even use a hairdryer. The climate here is really comfortable; her hair should dry quickly if she let it down.

Xu Hongdou simply took a plain white shirt, a light blue long skirt, and a pair of white sneakers from her suitcase. She was about to go find Li Haoyu.

After all, the two of them live next door, so there's no way to avoid it.

Therefore, Xu Hongdou plans to be more magnanimous and take the initiative to communicate.

Xu Hongdou had just reached the door of Li Haoyu's room.

Just as she was about to knock on the door.

The door opened.

Li Haoyu had already heard Xu Hong's footsteps.

So he didn't waste any time and opened the door to greet Xu Hongdou. "Oh, you're done washing up so quickly. How about I take you downstairs to get some food?"

But no matter what Li Haoyu said, Xu Hongdou remained silent.

She simply followed silently behind Li Haoyu.

The two walked down the stairs together. Li Haoyu was already very tall, which made Xu Hongdou behind him look even more petite and delicate.

The two fell into an unusual silence. After all, neither Xu Hongdou nor Li Haoyu were the type to let the atmosphere get awkward, so the current situation was actually a bit embarrassing.

Li Haoyu is alright, after all, he has always been a tough nut to crack.

However, Xu Hongdou became unusually shy.

She kept her head down the whole time she walked.

This caused Xu Hongdou to trip over her own feet while going down the stairs, and she stumbled and fell down.

Fortunately, Li Haoyu reacted quickly.

He grabbed Xu Hongdou's shoulder.

He helped Xu Hongdou stabilize her body.

This prevented a tragedy from happening.

In fact, Li Haoyu was also a little confused. Xu Hongdou was very insightful in other areas, but why did she seem so timid and hesitant when it came to her own feelings? This was definitely not her style.

Fortunately, Xu Hongdou met him.

This is truly her good fortune.

There's nothing wrong with guys taking the initiative in these kinds of situations.

Li Haoyu grabbed Xu Hongdou's hand.

This made Xu Hongdou instinctively shrink back.

However, Xu Hongdou's attempt failed.

You should know that Li Haoyu's stamina is already at nine points. If Li Haoyu really exerts his strength, let alone a weak woman like Xu Hongdou, even a burly man would have a hard time getting rid of him.

Li Haoyu looked at Xu Hongdou with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He didn't rush to explain anything.

Li Haoyu simply said one sentence

"come over."

Li Haoyu let Xu Hongdou, who was standing firmly, stand on the step above him. Li Haoyu stared straight at her, and Xu Hongdou also took advantage of the height of the stairs.

The two of them were now at eye level.

Even if Xu Hongdou is now a coward.

She had no way to avoid Li Haoyu's gaze anymore.

It was no longer realistic for Xu Hongdou to run away; she was firmly pinned to the corner of the stairs by Li Haoyu.

However, there was no wall behind them.

Otherwise, this would be the golden angle position for the wall.

This instantly amplified the pressure Li Haoyu exerted on Xu Hongdou.

As expected, Xu Hongdou panicked immediately.

Because this is different from how she used to reject others. In the past, when Xu Hongdou rejected someone's advances, she always held the initiative.

She can easily decline invitations by simply saying, "I'm too busy with work, and I also need to go home to feed the dog."

Now, I've been cornered.

She hadn't expected Li Haoyu to act so unpredictably, and now she didn't know how to handle the situation.

To be honest, Xu Hongdou is also feeling a little uneasy right now.

She actually felt pretty good right now, especially since Xu Hongdou found that Li Haoyu unexpectedly gave her a lot of sense of security.

Because when Li Haoyu was below her and Xu Hongdou turned her head, she could even vaguely see the muscle lines of Li Haoyu. 💲🐼 🍬🎃 The image of Li Haoyu's muscle curves kept drilling into Xu Hongdou's mind.

Xu Hongdou's mind went completely astray.

She couldn't help but think that was the V-line.

This was the first time Xu Hongdou had seen it with her own eyes, and she even had the urge to touch it. The moment this thought crossed her mind, Xu Hongdou's face flushed red.

Oh my god, how could she have such an outrageous idea!

It really is! I must have been hit by a huge shock today.

That's why I had such a strange idea.

However, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but complain that Li Haoyu was really outrageous. Didn't he know that pursuing a girl required being a gentleman?

What kind of behavior is it to corner her on the stairs like that!

Li Haoyu had previously pretended to be polite, witty, and humorous. It was all a facade; now his true colors have been completely revealed.

Xu Hongdou just stared at Li Haoyu.

But she still couldn't think of a good way to resolve the current situation.

This was just the right time.

Li Haoyu's eyes met Xu Hongdou's.

This made Xu Hongdou panic. The moment their eyes met, Xu Hongdou's gaze immediately drifted away. If it weren't for the fact that her escape route was blocked...

Xu Hongdou will definitely run away immediately.

This scene made Li Haoyu smile inwardly.

She said she had never seen Xu Hongdou like this before.

Li Haoyu said calmly, "Have you already made up your mind and are you ready to give me an answer now?"

"Huh? No."

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but shake her head in a panic.

The staircase was already small, and now with two people standing on it, it felt even cramped. Especially since Xu Hongdou had just taken a shower and her hair wasn't even dry yet.

Li Haoyu could even smell the shower gel on Xu Hongdou's body; it really smelled nice.

Li Haoyu asked, "Is this a difficult decision for you?"

"Um"

Xu Hongdou hummed in agreement. She said hurriedly, "We're here for a trip, and I need to think about what you mentioned earlier."

Li Haoyu said somewhat jokingly, "So, can I take this as my probationary period, during which I need to complete the final exam, a single test that will determine my future?"

"this……"

Xu Hongdou heard Li Haoyu say this.

She was a little unsure how to respond.

Li Haoyu said directly, "Then let's not drag it out. Let's have a short quiz this afternoon. That way you can see how good I really am."

"what?"

Li Haoyu continued, "Don't worry, since I promised you, I will honestly abide by the rules."

"Before you give me your final score, I promise I won't keep pressing you for answers like I did today. That way, you'll have the upper hand."

"I have that much patience, but you'll have to agree to some basic conditions in return." Xu Hongdou hesitated a little when she heard Li Haoyu say this.

She unconsciously stepped back.

Li Haoyu saw that Xu Hongdou was reacting so strongly.

She couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Why are you so afraid of me? Do you think I'd be so shameless as to take advantage of you and make some outrageous demands? Do you really think I'm that kind of pathetic man?"

Xu Hongdou couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Hao.

She remained silent for a while.

Xu Hongdou stared wide-eyed at Li Haoyu, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "You really are... I don't even know what to say about you."

Li Haoyu shook his head and said, "If you don't know what to say, then I'll take that as a yes."

Xu Hongdou nodded helplessly.

She couldn't help but complain, "It's such a waste of your talent that you're not in sales. You'll definitely be rich in no time."

Li Haoyu shook his head. "There's no need. I'm already worth hundreds of millions. Why would I want to be a miserable salesman? I'd rather chat with you."

"Don't you think so?"

Xu Hongdou saw that Li Haoyu was being glib and slick again.

She got a little angry again.

Xu Hongdou pouted and said, "If you keep talking like that, I really don't want to talk to you anymore."

Li Haoyu said, "If you say that, then I really have to leave."

After saying that, Li Haoyu made a gesture as if he was about to leave.

As a result, Xu Hongdou remained motionless.

Li Haoyu couldn't help but say, "You didn't even stop me! If I really left, it would be so dangerous for you, a girl, to be alone in a strange city!"

Xu Hongdou replied, "You're such a big person, I can't stop you. Besides, I'm already here. Traveling alone is actually quite nice."

"I'm happy to finally have some peace and quiet."

Xu Hongdou now understands Li Haoyu's behavior very well.

Now she's too lazy to even bother with a perfunctory response.

Li Haoyu saw Xu Hongdou say this.

He wasn't surprised, after all, that's just Xu Hongdou's personality.

Li Haoyu curled his lip and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll take you with me? I'm capable of doing that. Anyway, in your mind, I'm already a scoundrel, aren't I?"

"Then I don't care anymore, I can just slack off as I please. So Xu Hongdou, you'd better show me some respect, or I can't guarantee what I might do to you."

"You...this man!"

Li Haoyu's words completely rendered Xu Hongdou speechless.

So she gave up and stopped struggling.

Li Haoyu felt that Xu Hongdou's resistance to him was growing stronger. It seemed he needed to work on improving his methods. That would make things more interesting.

"Then can you let me go down?" Xu Hongdou said. She couldn't hold back any longer. Actually, Xu Hongdou didn't want to agree so easily, but Li Haoyu's pressure was too strong.

She was afraid that if she didn't agree, Li Haoyu might take things further.

Xu Hongdou felt that Li Haoyu holding her hand was too natural. She knew Li Haoyu was really capable of doing it, so Xu Hongdou was worried about what would happen if she disagreed.

That would put her in a real bind.

Thinking of this, Xu Hongdou's face flushed.

She couldn't help but glance at Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu then finalized another matter.

He was also in a relaxed mood.

It now seems he's one step closer to winning over Xu Hongdou.

However, he then thought of Xie Zhiyao, a potential rival he had at the Windy Courtyard. Although he could stay by Xu Hongdou's side to prevent her phone from being damaged.

However, the inertia of the plot is probably not so easy to break. The Windy Courtyard is such a small place, and Xie Zhiyao is the owner of the Windy Courtyard.

The meeting between Xu Hongdou and Xie Zhiyao was basically inevitable.

On the other hand, Xu Hongdou and Li Haoyu are no longer boyfriend and girlfriend.

Even if the two are already a couple, if Li Haoyu forces Xu Hongdou not to date a specific person, given Xu Hongdou's personality, it's no wonder she'd explode.

Therefore, this matter really needs to be considered carefully.

Li Haoyu didn't have any particular attitude towards the so-called male lead.

He wouldn't treat the protagonist like some people do, as if they had a blood feud, wanting to humiliate the protagonist even when they haven't done anything wrong.

Similarly, Li Haoyu is definitely not the kind of selfless saint. If Xie Zhiyao had simply kept to his own business and been his own boss...

He wouldn't do anything, but if Xie Zhiyao still had designs on Xu Hongdou, then don't blame him for being ruthless. Li Haoyu has never been merciful to his enemies.

Li Haoyu felt that he really needed to make some plans.

After all, he's already at Youfeng Courtyard, and with his own resources, he could easily start anew. He could use a different business model to defeat Youfeng Courtyard, thereby achieving his goal of defeating Xie Zhiyao.

But Li Haoyu didn't want to do that, even though he had only been at Youfeng Courtyard for a short time. It was indeed a beautiful place, and there were many lovely people there too.

So if possible, Li Haoyu still wants to buy the Windy Courtyard directly.

This would be a win-win situation, not only greatly increasing the chances of improving the world's conquest progress, but also providing a suitable place for that little fool Li Meiyu to settle down.

Li Haoyu thought of this.

A wicked smile crept onto his lips.

But he didn't notice Xu Hongdou's gaze beside him.
