The Super Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO
Chapter 699 716: A BMW Gifted to a Beauty
"Got it!" Li Qiming nodded, today was an eye-opener, someone driving a Xiali can also afford a BMW, and a limited edition one at that.
"Boss Lin, how about I give you this car?" Li Hengji suggested.
Lin Mu waved his hand, "No need, I've already paid for it. Alright, there's nothing more for you here, off you go!"
"Alright then, Boss Lin, have a meal with you sometime, I'm off!" Li Hengji nodded and then dragged Li Qiming out of the 4S shop!
Outside, Li Qiming looked at Li Hengji in confusion, "Dad, what's the deal with that Boss Lin? Why are you afraid of him?"
"You just know how to cause trouble, that's Lin Mu from Flying Dragon, you get it?" Li Hengji said, as he gave a frustrated knock on Li Qiming's head.
"Uh..." Li Qiming felt a sinking feeling and was still puzzled, "But Dad, why is he driving a lousy Xiali to buy a BMW?"
"What he drives is his business, I'm telling you, with his money, buying a hundred BMWs is no big deal, from now on learn to be more low-key, it's lucky you didn't annoy him today, otherwise neither of us would face good consequences!" Li Hengji said.
Li Qiming nodded painfully, secretly cursing in his heart, "Damn it, why pretend to be such a pauper when you're rich!"
Li Qiming's incident was just a small detail, but it didn't affect Lin Mu's good mood. There are many flies in the world, and it's inevitable that one lands on you, Lin Mu had long been used to it!
"Sir, here are your car keys, please take care!" The sales lady handed the car keys to Lin Mu with great respect.
It was obvious that Lin Mu was definitely not an ordinary person, and the sales lady breathed a sigh of relief that she hadn't looked down on him earlier!
Lin Mu took the car keys, "Hmm, leave the car here for now, I'll have someone come pick it up this afternoon."
"Certainly, sir!"
"That's it for now, we're leaving!" Lin Mu put his arm around Zhou Xun's shoulder and waved.
"Take care, sir!"
Lin Mu returned to the Xiali with Zhou Xun!
"Here!" Lin Mu handed the car keys to Zhou Xun.
"What for?" Zhou Xun looked at Lin Mu, not understanding.
"It's your birthday today, it's your birthday gift." Lin Mu smiled and said.
"My birthday?" Zhou Xun frowned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Ah right, it really is my birthday today, how did you know, Brother Lin?"
"Hey, you're always in my heart, of course, I remember!" Lin Mu laughed.
Zhou Xun looked at Lin Mu, and tears immediately welled up in her eyes, "Brother Lin, thank you."
"Uh... Sis, what's this?" Lin Mu looked at Zhou Xun, and as people say, girls can be moved to tears over a small matter, it seems true indeed.
"Brother Lin, thank you for remembering my birthday, I'm really touched." Zhou Xun wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Alright, stop crying, this car is my birthday present to you, just accept it!"
"No, it's too valuable, I can't accept it!"
"Come on, sis, you're one of my people now, what's the big deal? I earn so much money for what reason? Isn't it for you girls to spend? Now that you're a famous person, you need a car, taking the bus all the time isn't practical!" Lin Mu said.
"Well... thank you!" Zhou Xun said.
"Hey, sis, don't be so formal with me, let's go shopping, buy a cake, and celebrate your birthday tonight!" Lin Mu said.
"Okay." Zhou Xun smiled.
Lin Mu drove the Xiali, taking Zhou Xun to the mall, accompanying her as they wandered around, and at the same time, Lin Mu called Earth Wolf to have him pick up the car from the 4S shop in the afternoon and sort out the paperwork and license!
Zhou Xun happily dragged Lin Mu around, though they didn't buy much, just a few pieces of clothing!
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was noon!
At noon, Lin Mu and Zhou Xun found a restaurant intending to grab some food. They ordered some snacks, and Zhou Xun ate happily. It was obvious Zhou Xun was genuinely happy today. Of course, the happiness wasn't because Lin Mu bought her a global limited edition BMW, but because Lin Mu remembered her birthday!
For Zhou Xun, this was more touching than any expensive gift. As they were eating, Lin Mu's phone rang!
He checked the phone; it was a call from Nanny Yu!
"Hello, Director Yu, how did it go?" Lin Mu asked on the phone.
"Boss Lin, there's a problem!" Nanny Yu said over the phone.
"What problem?"
"This morning I contacted the Happy Camp director. There's no problem going on the show, but the schedule was pushed back a month!"
"Pushed back a month? No way, now is the summer season, the peak time for shows to be popular, pushing it back by a month would mean 'Palace Locks Liancheng' would be delayed too. By then, the best timing would be missed, and it wouldn't be relevant anymore!" Lin Mu said.
"But I heard from the assistant director over there that the people scheduled for this episode have some connections with the Happy Camp director, so without connections, we definitely have to delay it!" Nanny Yu said.
"Wait for me at the company, I'll discuss it with you when I get back!" Lin Mu said.
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xun looked at Lin Mu, "What's going on?"
"The Happy Camp wants to push back the schedule. It's the best time to air now and also the time with the most audience engagement. Pushing it back a month would likely reduce this buzz, and as we've already announced the airing time, continuing this way would damage credibility with the audience!" Lin Mu explained.
"What are we going to do?" Zhou Xun asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I have a way to solve it. Let's finish eating, and then head back to the company together!" Lin Mu said.
"Okay," Zhou Xun nodded.
Ten minutes later, the two finished eating, left the restaurant, and drove back to the Flying Dragon Film and Television Company. As soon as they got back to the office, Lin Mu called Nanny Yu in!
"Boss Lin, how do you want to handle this?" Nanny Yu asked, sitting on the sofa.
"What company is the opposing company?" Lin Mu asked.
"It seems to be Qi Jin Studio, the most popular Qing dynasty dramas right now are all played by their studio, and that Qi Jin is some relative of the Happy Camp director." Nanny Yu reported.
"Did you try raising the price?"
"We did, but they said no matter how much we offer, it won't work!"
Lin Mu rubbed his chin, then took out his phone and dialed Elder Ren.
"Haha, Elder Ren." Lin Mu chuckled and said.
"Lin Mu, you little rascal, do you have something important?"
"Hey, I have a small thing to trouble you with."
"Just tell me what it is!"
