Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years
Chapter 519 Xu Hongdou, the Descendant of the Female Frog
The final result was as Li Haoyu expected; the young woman couldn't withstand the pressure, and the final price was 10.8 million. π·π§ β 9sπ₯απ.βΈπΈπ πβ¨
She was anxious to settle accounts with her husband.
Otherwise, the bridge loan interest for just one day would already amount to quite a bit of money.
After signing the contract, Li Haoyu ignored Lin, the intermediary, trying to persuade him to stay.
He just wants to find Xu Hongdou now and demand his reward.
Xu Hongdou still has room for development.
β¦β¦
Xu Hongdou was unaware that Li Haoyu had already taken the initiative to buy the shop.
She's playing with the children now.
"Does Aunt Red Bean still have snack gift packs?"
A little girl stood in front of Xu Hongdou
Xu Hongdou affectionately patted the little girl's head. "We're out of snow cakes, but I still have White Rabbit candies."
The little girl said in her childish voice, "But I don't want Tiger to have a watch. Can I trade you the hair tie I knitted myself? I also want White Rabbit candy."
Xu Hongdou squatted down and said, "Of course, but you have to agree to one extra condition. You can't call me Aunt Hongdou anymore; you can call me Sister Hongdou."
"Okay, Sister Red Bean, can I get my White Rabbit candy now?"
The little girl spread her hands, facing Li Haoyu timidly.
Xu Hongdou smiled; she took out a handful of milk candies from a snack bag next to her and put them in the girl's hand.
The little girl smiled happily after receiving it, "Thank you, Sister Red Bean."
After saying that, she took the candy and went to distribute it to the children behind her.
Xu Hongdou watched the girl who controlled the distribution of candy smiling so happily.
She couldn't help but smile happily.
Children's happiness is so simple.
At that moment, she couldn't help but recall what Li Haoyu had asked her to do a couple of times a few days ago. Ideally, twins, a boy and a girl.
Xu Hongdou secretly spat.
He's always dreaming of such wonderful things! He's dreaming!
Xu Hongdou sat comfortably on a roadside deck chair.
She took out her diary again, wanting to record her feelings during this period.
"I spent the whole morning researching guesthouses. It turns out there's a big difference between hotels and guesthouses. I really need to keep learning so I don't fall behind."
"So much time has passed without me even realizing it. It's true that the happiest days are those when you don't think about anything and just play around. But this isn't a long-term solution."
"Although you can save up money and not worry about it for a while, you can't just sit around and do nothing."
"However, Li Haoyu did suggest that I open a guesthouse and coffee shop with her here. It's actually a pretty good suggestion."
"After all, even a carefree and happy life needs the support of daily necessities. ππ β βΎπεοΌ΅x.Δππͺ πβ However, this bad guy took advantage of me when I wasn't paying attention."
"Not only that, he could barely be considered a decent boyfriend. Actually, Xu Hongdou didn't expect to be in a relationship so quickly. It was really a moment of impulse that made her agree to it without thinking."
"The main problem is that Li Haoyu is too good at pretending. In front of outsiders, he always appears mature and reliable, especially during the last dinner and performance, where he even showed off his talent."
"He had never told me before that he could play guitar and sing."
"As for their private interactions, Li Haoyu went even further, constantly arguing with her. Doesn't he know that girls like to show off?"
"On the other hand, he's a decent person. Although he sometimes acts without any moral boundaries, he still has a kind of outrageous charm."
Xu Hongdou thought of this.
A smile couldn't help but spread across her face.
"I must have been brainwashed by him, otherwise why would I have such thoughts?"
"However, at least one saying still holds true: the essence of humanity is simply to live aimlessly. There's no need to figure everything out; it's better to be blissfully ignorant."
"It's actually quite like Ah Q's spirit, but why do I laugh whenever I think about it?"
"Actually, Li Haoyu does have a few advantages. His knowledge and experience always make Xu Hongdou feel that sometimes she is not facing a peer."
"But most of the time it makes people feel very comfortable, which is actually an important reason why Xu Hongdou did not reject getting along with Li Haoyu at the beginning."
"However, these impressions were based on Li Haoyu whom I had just met. Now, he seems to have stopped pretending and can say the most shameless things."
"They really have no bottom line at all. Last time they wouldn't let me go back to my room." They even said they wouldn't let me rest all night.
"I really don't know how he has the nerve to say such a thing. What's most infuriating is that if she hadn't schemed to get rid of him, Li Haoyu might have actually done it. He really is that outrageous."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Xu Hongdou became angrier the more she thought about it.
It's a pity Li Haoyu isn't here right now, otherwise she would definitely pinch the soft flesh on Li Haoyu's waist hard.
Li Haoyu was completely stiff, impossible to squeeze, and had even hurt her hands several times. The only weakness Xu Hongdou had discovered so far was the soft flesh around his waist.
Xu Hongdou wrote furiously as she thought.
The diary was instantly filled with her accusations against Li Haoyu. She had decided to record all of Li Haoyu's "crimes" in her diary.
When he returns, she will have a serious talk with Li Haoyu.
In fact, Xu Hongdou had sometimes seriously considered whether she should try to satisfy Li Haoyu. She said she didn't want to, but deep down she still harbored a little hope. πΈβ β βΕΔ€uβ§.πΈα»πΆ β’π¬
Xu Hongdou became angrier the more she thought about it.
Especially now that Li Haoyu has disappeared again.
She kicked a pebble on the road and said, "They didn't even inform me of their itinerary beforehand, and now they're trying to disappear without a trace."
Even the children nearby were used to this scene. This little red bean sister often threw tantrums like this when she was alone, only changing her attitude when her older brother came.
At this point, they didn't even dare to approach Xu Hongdou to trade snacks. So they always had to wait for that older brother surnamed Li to come.
In fact, compared to Xu Hongdou, they even preferred the older brother, and this was a consensus among both boys and girls.
Regarding that bad guy that Xu Hongdou mentioned.
They had three main impressions:
First, they are elusive and often take Sister Xu Hongdou away when you're not paying attention.
Second, he is Xu Hongdou's boyfriend. Therefore, he can kiss Xu Hongdou.
Thirdly, and most importantly: Li Haoyu, that older brother, never comes empty-handed. Every time, besides various snacks and fruits...
What impressed them most was that one time he simply pushed an ice cream cart over.
He's an absolute god!
This left an indelible impression on their young minds.
So although they all liked Sister Xu Hongdou, they were still more looking forward to Li Haoyu's appearance.
Xu Hongdou had been waiting for a long time, but Li Haoyu still hadn't shown up.
In the past, Li Haoyu would only disappear for an hour or two at most. But now, a whole afternoon has passed, and he hasn't been seen at all.
Xu Hongdou has called him many times, but none of the calls went through.
Does Li Haoyu really not care that he's angry?
It was because I lied to him and didn't agree to his excessive demands.
So he deliberately does this to himself.
"Maybe I should just agree to some of his requests. After all, all men are pretty much the same. Besides, I'm his official girlfriend now."
"But his demands are all so unreasonable, which ones should I agree to?"
"Clothing or actions?"
"How could I think like that? Xu Hongdou, you must have been brainwashed by him. How could you compromise like this... Let's see how he behaves before making a decision."
"If he can truly change his ways, we can actually let him take advantage of us a little; if he behaves badly, then we'll teach him a lesson he won't forget."
"That's a happy decision."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Having thought this through, Xu Hongdou no longer hesitated.
She took a sip of the red bean and barley tea beside her.
This was given to her by Master Ma.
To be honest, Xu Hongdou was initially indifferent to the idea of ββdrinking tea.
At first, Master Ma exaggerated the tea's quality, making it seem like the best thing in the world, which piqued Xu Hongdou's curiosity. In the end, Master Ma won Xu Hongdou over with a single sentence: "Drinking this is good for your health."
Xu Hongdou feels that as she gets older, she, who used to often complain about her parents forwarding health and wellness links to her, is now paying more and more attention to her health.
Xu Hongdou has high expectations for red bean and barley tea.
She had always thought this tea had a similar name to red bean sago pudding.
It should taste just as good.
She only took one sip.
All the beautiful moments vanished, and it felt like eating dirt.
Xu Hongdou almost spat it all out, but Li Haoyu was right next to her. So she frowned and drank it all down.
Li Haoyu didn't offer her a single word of comfort.
Instead, he started nagging her about himself.
He spoke eloquently about this red bean and barley tea.
"While barley tea is good, it's also cooling in nature, and not cooking it thoroughly can be harmful. Plus, you'd need to spend a lot of time every day washing the rice, soaking it, boiling it, and scrubbing the potsβyou definitely wouldn't be able to stick to that."
Xu Hongdou was very angry when she heard this.
I'm not a good cook, so how could something as simple as brewing tea possibly stop her?
So Xu Hongdou specifically consulted Master Ma.
To balance the taste, Xu Hongdou also made some adjustments to the recipe.
Xu Hongdou is not the kind of person who would give up her appetite for the sake of health. Even if it's for the sake of her health, she still has to brew delicious tea.
So she brewed seven or eight pots of the experimental product in one day.
After Li Haoyu tried all of them.
Finally, the best solution was chosen.
First, the Job's tears must be thoroughly roasted like popcorn; only in this way can the cold nature of the Job's tears be reduced. Then, add dried pear and pineapple.
Xu Hongdou decided on these two fruit slice toppings after browsing Xiaohongshu (a Chinese social media platform) for a long time. Pears, while sweet, are very low in calories. Pineapples are not only low in calories, but also have a rich sweet and sour flavor.
Using these two fruits for flavoring creates a natural sweetener, and you don't have to worry about calories, so it's suitable for people on a sugar-free diet. Drinking fruit tea is just as satisfying as drinking a beverage.
It has a delicate fruity aroma, which is very elegant and also has health benefits.
Xu Hongdou fell in love with the flavor immediately.
Even the notoriously picky Li Haoyu couldn't stop praising Xu Hongdou's preparation. So lately, whenever she has a spare moment, Xu Hongdou makes herself a big pot of fruit tea that Li Haoyu brewed.
This is much tastier and healthier than the milk tea you buy outside.
Xu Hongdou poured herself a full glass and took a small sip.
It's still a bit hot.
She couldn't help but stick out her tongue.
Fortunately, there was no one else here except for children, otherwise it would have been quite embarrassing.
Little did she know that Li Haoyu had already silently stood behind Xu Hongdou's chair. He was now somewhat charmed by Xu Hongdou's adorable little expressions.
So cute!
As expected, Xu Hongdou's destructive power is truly immense.
Most importantly, this evoked Li Haoyu's memories of the game "Travel Frog". Because Xu Hongdou's expression now is exactly the same as the Travel Frog drinking water from the bamboo pole.
It's really quite similar.
Don't underestimate this casual game; he used to play raising frogs with genuine passion.
Xu Hongdou, a descendant of the female frog
The word flashed through Li Haoyu's mind instantly.
He couldn't help but burst out laughing.
At this moment, Xu Hongdou finally noticed that Li Haoyu had returned.
She saw Li Haoyu grinning foolishly again.
She frowned and said, "What are you grinning about all by yourself for? What's making you so happy? Why don't you share it with me?"
Li Haoyu laughed so hard he almost fell over. "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought you looked a lot like a cute animal, so I just burst out laughing."
Xu Hongdou was also a little curious, "What animal? My sister once said that I eat a bit like a hamster. You can't be any more outrageous than that, can you?"
"Just say it freely, I promise I won't get angry with you, okay? I also want to hear what I have to say."
Li Haoyu said in a very serious tone.
"I definitely can't say that, I'm sure you'll get angry."
Xu Hongdou said, "Can you be more straightforward? I don't believe there's any animal that's worse than a hamster. I'm not that petty."
"Then I'll really say it, and I must emphasize one last time that I meant no harm."
"Speak up, stop dawdling like that."
I think you're a bit like the Frog in the game "Travel Frog".
"It's just a frog... What? How dare you say that to me? Come here right now!"
Li Haoyu turned around and hid behind the table. "I told you you would be angry, but you insisted that I say it."
At this moment, Li Haoyu saw the diary on the table.
Li Haoyu remembered that he hadn't had a chance to peek at Xu Hongdou's diary after she got drunk last time. Now, he reached out to take it, "What did you write? Let me see!"
Xu Hongdou no longer cared about chasing after Li Haoyu.
She quickly tucked the diary into her bosom.
"This is my privacy, you can't look at it. If you do, you'll be breaking up with me."
Li Haoyu said helplessly.
"Okay, let me tell you something important first."
"We have a home now."
