CHAPTER 77: CHAPTER 77: CAMPING

"It’s indeed a vacant number, I suspect it’s a disguised one."

Gu Lili pondered secretly; using a disguised number just for a call must mean the person is no ordinary individual. "Got it."

She shared this matter with Long Yubei, her husband. Gu Lili hardly kept anything from him; she shared everything with him.

Long Yubei instructed her to take more bodyguards when going out, "Although you are skilled in defense, it’s always good to prevent problems before they arise."

"Okay."

"We have a two-day break the day after tomorrow. Liang He has just finished his filming and is persistently asking to go camping for a vacation; it’s a good opportunity to take you out for a change of scenery."

Gu Lili inquired, "Isn’t Shen Congmo going?"

"He went abroad today." Long Yubei chuckled, "Liang He scolded him fiercely, saying he wanted to go on vacation together, but he ended up traveling abroad."

"Alright, then I’ll go prepare the clothes and items we need to take with us."

He nodded.

When Long Yubei returned to the bedroom, he saw she had packed a suitcase, "What did you bring?"

"All the essentials, even though it’s just for two days, but I still want to bring everything we need to fully enjoy ourselves." Gu Lili shoved the suitcase aside and hugged him, "Let’s head out early tomorrow, it’ll be cooler in the morning."

"Okay."

The next morning at six o’clock, Liang He showed up at Qin Garden on time with his agent, Shi Xiaotian.

The four of them took a car together, heading to the beachside villa area.

This location was chosen by Liang He.

Vacationing in the upscale villa area was charged by the day.

The daily expense started at tens of thousands.

After settling in their luggage, the sun rose high, and the temperature soared.

The four changed into swimsuits and set out to sea on a yacht.

The freedom and pleasure of leisure time made Gu Lili feel delightful from head to toe, inside and out. She liked these moments of relaxation.

After playing the entire day, the tents were pitched by the seaside in the evening.

Eating barbecue and drinking beer, the group felt refreshed and sat together.

Liang He’s WeChat kept buzzing. After looking at the messages, he turned to Long Yubei, "President Su asked me to inquire if your company’s department store chain has finalized its new celebrity endorser?"

"Not yet."

Liang He puckered his lips, "What do you think about Sun Qianqian?"

"Not a bad reputation, you two are from the same agency, right?"

"Correct, now she’s the lead actress in both TV dramas and movies, a first-tier star." Liang He suggested, "I think her image is pretty good; you could consider her."

Long Yubei raised an eyebrow, "Noted."

Liang He raised his beer, clinking it with his, "It’s a pity for the little sister-in-law. Had she entered the entertainment circle, she would have been sensational. With your martial skills, you’d look really cool in action movies."

"She won’t enter the entertainment circle." Long Yubei stroked Gu Lili’s long hair, "The pursuit of fame and wealth in the entertainment circle leads to profound schemes, Lili isn’t suited for that. Besides, with the title of Young Madam of the Long Family, whatever she does, people will see only her halo and not her efforts. Aren’t you also trying to make people recognize your acting skills and strength, ignoring your family background? That’s why until now you haven’t revealed your identity to the public."

"The entertainment circle really is a deep water. I haven’t used my family’s background because I want to be acknowledged as an actor, not just a male star. I’ve achieved this now, but it wasn’t easy getting here, and I’m the only one who knows how hard it was."
