The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Bufan happened to walk to the entrance of the library.

How Bai Bing communicates with Zhang Tianai is between the two of them and has nothing to do with him.

Lin Bufan quietly pushed open the door and entered the library.

The entire library is decorated in a Chinese style.

Once inside, he saw that Che Xiao was the only person there.

"Honey, what brings you here?"

Hearing the sound, Che Xiao looked up and saw Lin Bufan come in. She put the book she was holding on the table and looked at Lin Bufan with a puzzled expression.

"Just came to see you all!"

Lin Bufan smiled and walked over to Che Xiao, glancing at the book on the table, "Those Things of the Ming Dynasty".

"Do you like reading this book?"

Lin Bufan looked at Che Xiao and asked with some curiosity.

Lin Bufan certainly knew about this book. Moreover, this book had a tremendous influence both in the present and in future generations.

"Um!"

Che Xiao nodded, and then spoke to Lin Bufan.

"These Things About the Ming Dynasty" was serialized on Tianya starting in 06, and several volumes were published in 07.

Initially, although quite a few people read this book, it didn't become very popular.

In later years, this entire book series, by the end of 07, had sold over a million copies.

However, in this life, it has increased fivefold.

In 07, a total of 546 million copies were sold. The reason for this was that the two TV series "The Ming Dynasty" series, "Hongwu Emperor" and "Yongle Emperor", made the entire Ming Dynasty popular.

As a result, the sales of this novel also continued to rise.

According to Che Xiao, dozens or even hundreds of posts discussing the Ming Dynasty appear every day on both Baidu Tieba and Tianya Forum.

"Where's Sissi?"

Lin Bufan looked at Che Xiao, somewhat puzzled.

The "XiXi" he's referring to is naturally Wan Qian. It's safe to say that Liu Yifei and Wan Qian are truly destined to be together; no wonder they became sisters—they're both XiXi.

"Sister Sissi went inside to choose books!"

Che Xiao twisted her body and pointed behind her.

This library doesn't look very big on the outside, but the interior space is quite large; the entire library building has three floors.

Half of the first floor is set up for reading, but it's not a real 'library'. Since it's for family members to read, all the facilities are very convenient and comfortable.

The other half of the first floor, as well as the second and third floors, are all filled with books. The entire library has hundreds of bookshelves, arranged by category, and contains tens of thousands of books.

Even with Lin Bufan's amazing memory, he wouldn't dare say he's read every single book here.

Moreover, Lin Bufan himself didn't particularly enjoy reading.

"Xiaoxiao, it's been so long since we last saw each other!"

Lin Bufan walked forward, sat on the daybed, and held her on his lap.

"Um!"

Che Xiao nodded: "It's been one month and five days..."

"So, have you missed me?"

Lin Bufan whispered in Che Xiao's ear.

"have!"

Lin Bufan's warm breath brushed against Che Xiao's ear, causing her to tremble slightly, let out a soft hum, and nod.

"That……"

"No, not here..."

Che Xiao hurriedly grabbed his mischievous hand. This was in the library, and the surroundings were so open; it felt incredibly embarrassing.

"Don't worry, there are no outsiders here!"

This library belongs to the Lin family; outsiders have no way of getting in. Even if they were seen, it would only be by their own women, so what's the big deal?

"you……"

Wan Qian searched for a long time on the third floor before finally finding a book, and prepared to go downstairs to read it.

However, just as she reached the top of the stairs on the first floor, she heard Che Xiao's captivating voice. Upon closer inspection, she witnessed the scene before her.

……

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Bufan stood up and looked at the book Wan Qian had brought down, "Currency Wars".

This book is currently very popular, especially the stories about the Rothschild family, which have sparked a lot of discussion in China.

Even in later generations, people who don't know the book "Currency Wars" will certainly know the "Rothschild family".

"Alright, you can go back to your books!"

Seeing the two men looking exhausted, Lin Bufan whistled and turned to leave.

"snort!"

Just as Lin Bufan left the library, Wan Qian and Che Xiao almost simultaneously let out a soft hum, then glanced at each other.

Thinking back to what had just happened, I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

Although the two are called "sisters", they don't spend much time together. Wan Qian spends almost seven months of the year in Shanghai.

"Sister Sissi..."

Che Xiao looked at Wan Qian.

"Alright, let's tidy up before we start reading!"

Wan Qian looked helpless. After all, they were sisters who had fought side by side, so their relationship naturally became much closer.

……

Lin Bufan was unaware that Wan Qian and Che Xiao were cleaning up the traces in the library; he headed towards the recreation room.

Yunshui Villa has specially built an entertainment room, which includes not only a movie theater but also private karaoke rooms, all equipped with top-of-the-line facilities and luxurious decor.

The movie theater can accommodate up to 60 people, and all the seats are sofas where you can lie down.

Besides the audio-visual room and KTV rooms, there are six card and chess rooms in total, which contain not only mahjong machines but also tables for playing cards.

As for sofas for resting and tea tables for drinking tea, there's plenty of everything.

There was no shortage of alcoholic beverages or soft drinks.

"You won so many?"

Lin Bufan pushed open the door and walked into the card room. He was somewhat surprised to see the high stack of chips in front of Gao Yuanyuan.

None of his women are short of money. Even without mentioning their individual job income, Lin Bufan gives each of them 500,000 yuan a month in pocket money.

Playing directly with cash is inconvenient, so Lin Bufan specially commissioned someone to make some custom-made chips, which are only for his family to play.

"Honey, I lost so badly..."

Seeing Lin Bufan approach, Lin Zhiling looked at him with a pitiful expression: "Please help me..."

"stop!"

Before Lin Bufan could answer, Gao Yuanyuan called a halt and looked at Lin Zhiling: "Stop being so provocative, replacing her is out of the question."

As she spoke, Gao Yuanyuan turned to look at Lin Bufan, her eyes filled with threat: "You're not allowed to help anyone!"

She's played mahjong with Lin Bufan before, and all she can say is that Lin Bufan is incredibly skilled. They agreed to play four rounds of mahjong, but seven or eight hours passed and they hadn't even finished one round.

The reason for this was that when it was Lin Bufan's turn to be the dealer, he remained the dealer for seven or eight hours, causing her to lose over a million chips.

Fortunately, after she worked hard all night and signed a series of unequal treaties, Lin Bufan returned the chips to her.

But from that moment on, Gao Yuanyuan vowed never to play mahjong with Lin Bufan again.
