Chapter 7 : The Female Lead in the Book Appears
On the other side.
As soon as Tang Li walked out of the line of sight of the bodyguards, she sensed an unusual presence entering the building, so she followed the presence down.
When she reached the second floor, Tang Li walked in to take a look.
The entire floor was filled with casinos and gamblers.
There were shouts, wild laughter, curses, and wailing… It was extremely lively.
Tang Li swept her gaze across the entire hall, and her gaze fell on the group of people who were shaking the dice.
What others saw was the liveliness and excitement, but she saw that bad luck was about to descend on a middle-aged man.
“With such bad luck, he actually dared to gamble. How foolish is he?”
Tang Li withdrew her gaze and was about to leave when she suddenly felt a powerful aura coming from outside the door.
She quickly turned around and saw a young and pretty girl dressed in the uniform of the clubhouse rushing in angrily.
This girl didn’t look old. She should be in her first year of college.
The moment she entered, many people exclaimed in amazement.
Tang Li narrowed her eyes slightly. She actually saw a halo around the girl and the book spirit that pulled her into the book.
This person… Is she the female lead?
The girl rushed over and shouted at the middle-aged man angrily, “Daddy, you’re here gambling again? Do you think our family is not miserable enough!”
“Go back home.”
She was about to pull the middle-aged man away when she was stopped.
The banker didn’t care if the girl was his colleague or not. He said in a business-like manner, “You can leave if you want, but you have to return the money he borrowed from the clubhouse first. Otherwise, according to the clubhouse’s rules, you have to leave one hand behind and sign the IOU.”
Xiang Wanwan was so angry that her eyes turned red. She tilted her head and gritted her teeth as she asked her dad, “How much did you borrow tonight?”
Xiang Guangqiang replied like it wasn’t a big deal. “Only a few hundred thousand.”
“Only a few hundred thousand yuan?” Xiang Wan was so angry that she laughed. She shouted at him, “Do you know how long I have to work without eating or drinking for a few hundred thousand yuan? We haven’t paid back all the money you owe people yet, and now you borrowed another few hundred thousand yuan!”
The father and daughter were about to start a fight.
The onlookers were watching the commotion, and some even fanned the flames.
“Xiang Guangqiang, what a coward you are. You’re even getting disciplined by your daughter.”
“Dad getting disciplined by his daughter? What a joke.”
Seeing that Xiang Guangqiang was about to lose his temper, Tang Li narrowed her eyes and looked at the book spirit hiding inside the female lead’s body. Normally, she would not use mystic techniques in front of normal people, but now that she had nothing on her, she could only make an exception.
With a snap of her fingers, time stopped.
“Come out. Don’t think I can’t see you just because you’re hiding.”
Next, a book spirit with two short legs and two arms as wide as a palm floated out from Xiang Wan’s body.
The book spirit was obviously very afraid of Tang Li, and its voice was trembling. “B… boss.”
Tang Li looked at him. “I don’t care if you’re fighting with the artifact spirit. But tell me, why did you drag me into the book?”
“I… I didn’t mean it like that. The artifact spirit was too arrogant then, and I was too angry. I was going to drag him into the book and finish him off, but I didn’t know I’d pull everything in the area into it.”
“Things?”
“No, no, no… I didn’t mean you’re a thing. Boss, it’s my bad. Please give me a chance. I’ll send you out immediately.”
“Who said I was going out?”
“Er…”
“I’ll stay in this book, but I want you to change someone’s fate.”
“Well… Boss, if you want to change the fate of the male and female leads, I don’t have the ability to do so. There is a book spirit in this book. After the artifact spirit and I entered, the artifact spirit went into the male lead’s body. Then… the artifact spirit ate the book spirit of this book so I took over this book. However, I can’t change the main plot anymore. Unless you destroy the entire book, their fate can’t be changed.”
“Isn’t the male lead Qi Yihan?” She didn’t sense the presence of the artifact spirit on Qi Yihan.
“No, Qi Yihan is a devoted male supporting role, the female lead’s greatest benefactor, and the final Boss. He will die alone in the future.”
“…”
“Boss… Boss, why aren’t you saying anything?”
The book spirit was a little afraid. If she wanted him to die, he would die immediately. But he did not want to die now.
Tang Li was silent for two seconds before she suddenly said, “Remove his role as a loving supporting lead. From now on, he can only be my husband.” What did the story have to do with her?
“But… but… Qi Yihan is the female lead’s greatest benefactor. Without him, the story wouldn’t be able to continue.”
“Cut it off.”
When Tang Li’s face darkened, a glowing pen appeared before the book spirit. Then, the pen started writing on his body.
However, he couldn’t help but mutter, “I’ve removed all the development related to him and the female lead. How he develops now depends on his mood.”
“Yeah.”
“However…” The spirit’s pen suddenly stopped moving. He looked at Tang Li cautiously.” At this time, your man has already drafted the divorce agreement… I am not in charge of relationships. Boss, you’ll have to find a way yourself. ”
Tang Li felt a headache coming on. “…Okay.”
Then, she looked at the female lead and suddenly had an idea. “What do you think about me becoming the female lead’s benefactor?” The female lead was lucky. She might be able to find many good things. By then, as long as she had the female lead, the good things would automatically come to her.
“Find, find, find!”
Tang Li glanced at the agitated book spirit and, as she waved her hand, the time began rolling again.
She walked up to Xiang Wanwan and leaned towards her, saying, “If you want to wake up a stubborn gambler, you’ll have to kill him.”
Xiang Wanwan looked at Tang Li fiercely. Pain flashed across her eyes. She knew Tang Li was right.
A smile appeared in Tang Li’s eyes. She was as beautiful as a fox. “I have a way to make your father stop gambling. Do you want to hear it?”
“What is it?” Xiang Wan asked instinctively.
“Brainwash your father. Brainwash him so much that he’s afraid of gambling.”
“…”
Tang Li stood up straight and glanced at everyone before saying to Xiang Wanwan, “You can leave with your dad now.”
The security guard standing at the side heard this and immediately said loudly, “They can’t leave. They have to return the money.”
“Call the manager of this floor over.”
The manager rushed over and greeted her, “Miss Tang.”
“Call me Fourth Madam.”
The manager immediately changed his tone. “Fourth Madam, what can I do for you?”
“I’ll pay back what he owes.”
Xiang Wanwan had a look of disbelief on her face. Then she said seriously, “I’ll return this money to you.”
“Of course, you have to return it. I’m lending it to you, not giving it to you.”
As a ‘businesswoman’, Tang Li never helped people for free.
The manager, who was standing at the side, had a troubled expression on his face. However, he still whispered to Tang Li, “Fourth Madam, Fourth Master said that you are to pay for all your expenses tonight. He will not pay a penny for you.”
Tang Li: “…”
