The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 1138: Chapter 1112: After Being Possessed 22

Li Hai went from Hai City to the Capital to avoid Anning.

He grew up in Hai City, and of course lived in the Capital at times, but compared to the Capital, he still preferred staying in Hai City.

This time, going to the Capital, Li Hai naturally had work to do. After arriving, he first discussed several collaboration projects, then began indulging in play.

Li Hai also had friends there in the Capital, and a group of second-generation kids played quite wildly.

Li Hai joined a few car races, then went with friends to some clubs.

As a result, he got entangled with a girl.

Honestly, the girl was truly beautiful, seemingly gentle and soft on the surface, yet inherently alluring.

Initially, Li Hai thought the girl looked really attractive, a relationship could be developed, so they started flirting, but it turned out she was quite intense, playing hard and clinging tightly to Li Hai.

Like this, Li Hai felt quite uneasy inside.

He found that when he was with this girl, he kept thinking about Yan Anning.

It seemed that one of Yan Anning’s personalities was somewhat like this girl.

How to say it, able to hold herself well amidst people but very relaxed in private.

Honestly, after the matter with Anning, Li Hai really couldn’t appreciate such girls.

Upon discovering this girl’s certain characteristics, he hurriedly broke up with her, but the girl refused, scaring Li Hai into quickly returning to Hai City from the Capital.

Upon returning to Hai City and inquiring around, he learned that Anning had fallen out with the Yan Family and was now back together with her ex-boyfriend. He indeed breathed a sigh of relief.

Before Li Hai could fully relax, he received a call from Anning.

Li Hai was truly puzzled; he changed his phone number and even switched up his WeChat, yet Anning still managed to find his number.

The call came in, Li Hai had no choice but to pick up.

With a heavy heart, he answered, ”An...Anning.”

Once the call connected, he heard Anning’s laughter: ”Young Master Li, long time no see, hope you’re well.”

”Not well, not well. I say Miss Yan, can you stop messing with me like this, I’m really terrified. I admit, I had thoughts about you before, but now I have no thoughts left. Damn it, I swear I’ll never play around again. All I want is to find a virtuous woman to honestly settle down and have kids, okay?”

Li Hai felt goosebumps all over upon hearing Anning’s laughter and couldn’t help but start swearing.

Anning laughed even more heartily, ”Alright, a prodigal son returning is worth more than gold. Young Master Li, I called not to rekindle old flames but for something serious.”

Li Hai finally felt at ease, ”Okay, just tell me what it is.”

”I want to collaborate with you on a project, it’s also because my funds are insufficient. Besides, I want to leverage the Li family’s connections, otherwise, I wouldn’t offer such a good deal to you.”

Talking about cooperation, Anning became much more serious, ”I’ll send you a location, come over and take a look, we need to discuss how to collaborate properly. I’m telling you, if this works out, you’ll surely make history.”

”Making history is not my aim; just don’t mess with me.”

Li Hai chuckled, ”Alright, send me the location, and I’ll come find you right away.”

Regarding cooperation, Li Hai was fairly assured with Anning.

Being in the same circle, and having grown up together with Anning, they both were well aware of each other’s temperament.

Anning was always a top student; she looked quiet and shy but was very decisive.

Moreover, Li Hai had heard about Anning’s private stock trading and knew her capabilities well.

But Li Hai only thought about earning some pocket money with Anning’s collaboration, he never considered making big money.

Anning quickly sent him the location, and when Li Hai saw it, he was taken aback.

He thought Anning was in Hai City but unexpectedly, she was in a small village.

Since Li Hai didn’t have much to do and feared Anning might do something to him if he didn’t go, he hurriedly called his assistant and secretary to drive to Fengtai Village.

Early in the morning, Anning called Li Hai, then followed Si Linna to visit some elders in the village, and went to the village head’s house to discuss developing Fengtai Village.

Fengtai Village was truly not prosperous; in these years, farming hadn’t been profitable, most young people in the village went out to work elsewhere, leaving mostly old folks and children. The village head also worried about it; hearing Si Linna talk about investing in rural tourism and wanting to develop agriculture, the village head felt it was a good idea.

If they genuinely made it happen, youngsters wouldn’t need to leave home to work far away, and children wouldn’t grow up without seeing their parents often.

If the village grew prosperous, young men could find partners, and families wouldn’t fret over marriage issues anymore.

After chatting with the village head for a while, it was near lunchtime. The village head wished to have Si Linna and Anning for lunch at home. Anning checked the time, thinking Li Hai should soon arrive, explained to Si Linna, and Si Linna quickly declined the village head’s kind offer.

The two left the village head’s house and received Li Hai’s call.

Li Hai had already arrived at the village entrance, so Anning drove Si Linna’s pickup truck to meet him.

Anning drove to the village entrance and saw Li Hai getting out of an SUV, looking around at the scenery of Fengtai Village.

”Miss Yan, why did you ask me to come here? Is this shabby place your so-called investment environment?”

Anning laughed, ”Don’t rush, come with me, we’ll discuss properly.”

As she got into the car, she added, ”Not bad, a trip to the Capital, corrupted flowers catching up with you.”

Talking about this, Li Hai cursed his bad luck, ”That girl was truly fierce, someone like me is still scared to death, otherwise, I’d still be playing in the Capital, not running back here under your command.”

Anning smirked, ”My apologies, I’ll have my sister make you some delicious food as a compensation later.”

”Why not cook yourself?”

Li Hai stepped into the car, bantering with Anning.

Anning pointed at herself, ”I say Brother Li, we’ve dated, you know my virtues, can you really count on me to cook? Aren’t you scared to be poisoned?”

Li Hai said nothing.

Before picking Li Hai up, Anning called Xiao Yuan to come over. By the time Anning brought Li Hai to the Shi Family, Xiao Yuan had arrived on his motorcycle.

This time, both ex and current partners were present, Si Linna glanced at Xiao Yuan and Li Hai, covered her face, and asked Anning quietly, ”Aren’t you afraid of causing a chaotic scene?”

Anning shook her head, ”No, Young Master Li is broad-minded, A Yuan isn’t someone petty, they won’t fight.”

Sure enough, they didn’t cause any trouble.

Li Hai sized up Xiao Yuan, smiled and approached, ”Heard a lot about you.”

Xiao Yuan shook hands with Li Hai, ”I’ve heard a lot about Young Master Li too, honored to meet today.”

Xiao Yuan, being cunning, secretly applied pressure while shaking hands, nearly breaking Li Hai’s bones.

Li Hai might seem laid-back but wouldn’t lose face by crying out in pain in such moments, so he endured.

Anning chuckled and said, ”Alright, everyone, let’s get inside quickly.”
