The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 89 If you want to open a store, then open it!
"Xiaoxiazi...wuwu..."

Early in the morning, Qu Si Ning called and seemed to be in a bad mood.

Xia Yu responded dazedly, without even opening his eyes, "Hmm..."

According to Qu Si Ning, she and Shang Jingyu had just celebrated yesterday afternoon when the accident happened this morning.

The previously popular book, both in e-book and physical form, suddenly disappeared from the publisher's website and bookstores everywhere. Not only that, the TV series that was being broadcast was also stopped, and the author of the book could not be contacted.

Although a lot of money was once made from that book, its sudden disappearance caused huge losses to [Ace Publishing], the film and television entertainment company team, the cast and crew, and the audience.

"What book?" Xia Yu turned over and asked lazily, "Is it a system malfunction? Could it have grown wings...can it fly?"

Qu Si Ning was in low spirits and answered, "Angel from the Future."

Ok?
Such a familiar book...

Xia Yu suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "Is it... the TV series that Xiaodong starred in?"

"Yes." Qu Si Ning replied.

Meng Xiaodong has now reached the stage where she can play the second female lead, and more and more people are paying attention to the unknown supporting roles she played in the past.

This TV series was originally shelved for two years before being aired, but it was suspended before it was halfway through!
No matter how big or small the loss is, it is still a loss. Meng Xiaodong's mood at this moment is probably the same as Qu Si Ning's.

"I really don't understand why I can't contact Qian Jie, the author of this book. Jingyu has been looking for her for a long time, but it seems like she has disappeared from the face of the earth. There is no news at all."

"Don't we usually know the address and contact information of contracted writers?"

"Except for our memories, everything is gone. The phone number is no longer in service and the address does not exist at all."

"Then how do we deal with this matter?"

"The TV series was stopped, and the book disappeared. The publisher had to return half of the copyright fee to the entertainment company. We suspect that the author deleted the serialized e-book from the website, but we can't contact her."

"It's gone, so be it! The publishing house is fine, they made a lot of money from the book, but the TV series team and the actors are the ones who lost more than they gained."

Xia Yu didn’t know if this could be considered “comfort”, but she felt that this was the fact.

"What a pity...I don't have this year's birthday present." Qu Si Ning said disappointedly.

"What gift?" Xia Yu asked.

"I've even thought of a name for my cosmetics store..." Qu Si Ning finally burst into tears on the other end of the phone. She felt so wronged!

Hearing Qu Si Ning crying on the phone, Xia Yu silently took out her bank card from under the pillow and said with a smile: "Since you have thought of a name for the store, let's open it!"

Qu Si Ning cried and shook her head, saying, "Jingyu still has to pay a large sum of money. I can't accept his 'birthday gift' anymore."

Xia Yu paused and said, "You don't have to take his. I'll give it to you."

"What?" Qu Si Ning asked.

"I said, isn't it just a cosmetics store? I'll give it to you." Xia Yu repeated.

Qu Si Ning was a little bit unbelieving, but when she heard Xia Yu say that, she was very happy.

When Qu Si Ning knew that Xia Yu gave Lan Yue a villa, she felt a little jealous.

She should have declined Xia Yu's kindness like Lan Yue did, but she actually wanted to accept it.

"Really?" Qu Si Ning confirmed.

Xia Yu smiled and said, "You can choose the location and store yourself."

Qu Si Ning's mind popped up several places that she liked, and she said happily, "Okay! Then let's just consider it as a store that we open together..."

"Goodbye..." Xia Yu knew that Qu Si Ning felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly explained, "I'm busy now, and I don't have time to help you manage your store. You can do it yourself."...

The call lasted for a long time. After hanging up, Xia Yu had a simple breakfast, put on his bag and went to find Qu Si Ning.

Xia Yu took Qu Si Ning to choose the store she wanted and accompanied her throughout the whole process.

Xia Yu didn’t understand anything else, but since Qu Si Ning had chosen the store, she was responsible for swiping the card to pay.

At the central intersection of Fengyu Street, a newly renovated store was bought by Xia Yu.

There are three bedrooms, two living rooms, one kitchen and two bathrooms. It is spacious and large. It is definitely Qu Si Ning’s new home.

Qu Si Ning's name is on the property certificate and she is also the owner. The business will open in just a few days after all the arrangements are made.

"I actually...really...really have my own store..." Qu Si Ning looked around the store, thinking about how to decorate each place, what brand of cosmetics to buy, how to advertise...

"Xia Zi..." Qu Si Ning suddenly ran towards Xia Yu, hugged her, and said with emotion: "Thank you! You are really my benefactor, my angel, and my best sister..."

Xia Yu let Qu Si Ning hold him, and seeing her extremely excited expression, he added calmly: "I wish you success! Make your store bigger and stronger soon. If I have no money in the future and become homeless, I will rely on you to take me in!"

After hearing this, Qu Si Ning responded immediately: "No problem! Just come back when the time comes. The position of deputy store manager will always be reserved for you."

After comforting Qu Si Ning, Xia Yu carried his bag and prepared to go for a walk to the crowded places on the street.

Hiding the red thread given by Li Jian in her bag, Xia Yu wanted to see if the so-called "son of the demon king" would come to snatch it again, and also wanted to meet other destined people.

After receiving the "2.82 million yuan deduction information", Li Jian couldn't help but call Xia Yu, who was in the noisiest place in the crowd at that time.

"Junior sister, have you bought another house?" Li Jian asked in confusion.

"It's not a house, it's a store." Xia Yu explained.

"You want to open a store?"

Because of the noise around him, Xia Yu didn't hear the last question clearly, and asked again: "What? Huh?"

"Are you planning to open a store?" Li Jian asked again loudly.

This time, Xia Yu finally heard it and said with a smile: "It's not me."

"Giving it away again?" Li Jian guessed this, as if he saw the money he had worked so hard to earn flying away bit by bit.

To be honest, "money" doesn't seem to be that important to Xia Yu.

The process of getting "money" is too easy for her, so she doesn't feel the hardship of "making money", and she won't feel sorry even if she spends a lot of money.

Li Jian was too lazy to say anything else. He sighed and hung up the phone.

Xia Yu put her phone in her bag and walked back and forth in the crowd, keeping an eye on her marriage bracelet and bag at all times.

"Sir, how do you drive? Do you know how to drive? Why did you have to chase me from such a long distance?"

A young girl wearing a sun hat and a denim skirt suit asked angrily. She knocked hard on the window of the car behind her, but the owner of the car was too lazy to even roll down the window.

"Hello? What do you mean?"

The girl who was rear-ended knocked on the car window a few more times and spoke louder, but the car owner was wearing sunglasses and headphones and didn't seem to notice her.

Xia Yu passed by and secretly performed a magic to open the driver's window of the car.

Upon seeing this, the girl reached out and pulled off his earphones, shouting, "Sir, you're behind the wheel!"
