I am The Villain’s Dad
Chapter 24:

“What? You want to reject this drama?”

Tommy exclaimed in the dressing room.

He couldn’t figure it out. What kind of enchanted soup did Su Yuyang, that little white face, give to Liu Zizi? Didn’t she say they were going to divorce?

She just went back one night and then came running back the next day saying she wasn’t going to take the drama.

“How can you just refuse such a good opportunity?”

“Am I not already too busy? I already have two TV shows, a movie, and several commercials to shoot. I’ll pick up that one later. Do you want me to die of exhaustion?”

Liu Zizi glanced at Tommy.

Her contract with Tommy was about to expire this year. It wasn’t surprising that he would have hidden intentions regarding this. It’s just that the two of them have been working together for so many years, so she couldn’t believe that Tommy would do such a thing.

She would rather give him another chance.

As long as he stopped here, the agency agreement between the two of them could be renewed.

“No, you have to take this drama, and you’ll have one shot at becoming a Movie Queen with this.”

Tommy stood up and spoke very loudly as he became agitated.

If Liu Zizi refused, the reward he was offered would disappear. Perhaps there would be no way for him to get involved in the entertainment circle in the future too.

It might really be so even if he and Liu Zizi had been working together very close for so many years.

But no matter how deep the relationship is, it was only a working relationship, even if Liu Zizi was the first person he brought up from a newcomer and that Liu Zizi gradually gave him a place in the company.

But in face of huge profits, it’s better for a friend to die than to be a poor Daoist!

(TNote: it’s better for a friend to die than be a poor Daoist = a modern saying, meaning: dear friend, you sacrifice yourself so I won’t be a poor Daoist. Poor Daoist = the Daoist people in ancient times are known to be so humble and dislike money.)

Besides, he was also helping Liu Zizi by doing so. As long as she stayed obedient and listened, after returning to the Liu family, she wouldn’t have to work so hard outside.

That little white face couldn’t give her a happy life. She worked so hard and paid so much for him. In the end, didn’t she end up wanting a divorce?

“What are you talking about Tommy? I’m so young anyways. It’s going to be a long way for me to be a Movie Queen, and you’re making it sound like if I can’t be a Movie Queen now, I won’t have a chance later.”

Liu Zizi was unhappy.

“Oh, my Lady, I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just, you have to rush this kind of thing sooner rather than later, and that investor just happens to be a fan of yours…”

Tommy sensed Liu Zizi’s mood and immediately laughed a few times before stepping forward to explain.

“No, I said no.”

With that, towards Tommy, Liu Zizi was completely disappointed.

That night, when Su Yuyang told her to be careful about Tommy, she didn’t take it to heart. Tommy has worked with her for so many years, and she has never mistreated Tommy.

Tommy’s share was also 10% higher than average in the industry. Tommy has taken good care of her, and has never forced her to take jobs she didn’t want to take.

However, she knew Su Yuyang’s temperament deeply, and he wouldn’t just make things up. If he says something, she can’t help but pay attention.

With him drawing her attention to Tommy, she now noticed that Tommy wasn’t acting quite right.

Nowadays, every time he talked to her, it was always an ‘unintentional’ inquiry about her and Su Yuyang.

Next, anytime he received a phone call, he always made sure to avoid having people around before picking it up.

This time, she couldn’t help but follow Tommy to listen in on his phone call. She didn’t know who was on the phone, but then Tommy mentioned Liu Bujuan.

Although the eavesdropping was a very bad thing to do, what she overheard made her whole body uncomfortable.

Looking at Tommy’s current attitude, what else did she not understand?

She knew who Liu Bujuan was. She knew that before she left home, there were rumors that her parents wanted to adopt that girl as a daughter.

She threw a huge tantrum and felt that her parents did not love her.

It turned out to be a false rumor, and she was happy.

When she ran out of the house, her parents were angry and said they would adopt Liu Bujuan. At that time, she thought that this was also a good thing, as at least someone could take care of her parents.

She just hasn’t heard anything about it in so many years.

Regardless, whether or not this person became the adopted daughter of the Liu family, Tommy shouldn’t have any reason to be in contact with her.

Earlier, he strongly urged her to divorce Su Yuyang and participate in a dinner.

Wanting her to divorce and to associate with the Liu family, does he want her to go home?

But, if he wanted her to go home, what’s the point of having contact with Liu Bujuan? Why should she get the Movie Queen title?

Her parents have never liked her being with Su Yuyang, nor did they like her working in the entertainment industry.

Now that she had become suspicious of Tommy, she noticed that there had been more paparazzi around her recently.

Even around the house she rented with Su Yuyang, there were people waiting beforehand, and that address, only Tommy knew.

Tommy used to protect these kinds of things well.

If Su Yuyang and her daughter hadn’t moved beforehand, and that she hadn’t told Tommy about this new address, she was afraid that Su Yuyang and her daughter would have been exposed by now.

“You said she refused?”

Tommy didn’t know how to answer the question from the person who obviously used a voice changer on the phone.

Obviously, Liu Zizi had always listened to him before.

Although she didn’t like to participate in this kind of dinner, she wouldn’t refuse as long as he suggested it, especially at this juncture when she was about to divorce Su Yuyang. He was her only reliance and she wouldn’t want their relationship to turn bad.

“I will try again.”

“No, it’s too late.”

Liu Bujuan hung up the phone.

Right now, she was just an 11-year-old child who couldn’t do anything. She could only call Tommy with a voice changer and tell others to carry out orders.

The timing of her crossing over was good though, and there was still room for everything to operate, even if she could just make things go bad from Su Yanran’s mother, Liu Zizi.

(TNote: crossing over = this means she time traveled back to herself, she is not some other person’s soul transmigrating.)

For her, Su Yanran was the heroine of this world, and she could only be trampled under her feet. Before she crossed over, Su Yanran returned to the Liu family with Liu Zizi as the young lady of the Liu family, with her living a smooth life and parents and grandparents around to spoil her.

Her mother was a Movie Queen, and her father was in charge of half the resources in the entertainment industry.

When she grew up, there was an amazing young man who loved her. If he wanted to study, he would become a genius. If he wanted to act, he would be a three-time award winner. If he wanted to do business, he would take over her father’s company and gain respect from everyone.

Such a person was really hateful, she thought. In her original life, she could only act as a supporting character and was very miserable because of the so-called heroine halo.

Now that God had given her a chance to cross over, she knew better than everyone what had happened and what had not happened. Of course, she must plan well.

Unfortunately, right now, things didn’t work out the way they were supposed to. The one named Tommy was too stupid.

Liu Zizi herself wanted to divorce Su Yuyang, and he didn’t take advantage of this opportunity.

Liu Zizi ran away again.

If this doesn’t work, then another month later, Liu Zizi’s parents would take her back to the Liu family.

In what world could parents bear to argue with their child for long?

Even if they no longer liked Su Yuyang, the son-in-law, Su Yanran was their granddaughter, and Liu Zizi was also their biological daughter.

When the daughter is suffering outside, of course the parent’s heart would ache.

In her original life, Su Yuyang, the son-in-law, was competent enough to realize what was going on after Liu Zizi filed for a divorce. Thus, in a month’s time, he was actually able to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry.

This gave Father Liu and Mother Liu an opportunity to bring them back.

After all, both of them were famous, and the chances of them being photographed together were much greater. If they were still left outside, and the media exposed their daughter’s unmarried pregnancy, it would be a great blow to them.

If Liu Zizi cannot be destroyed within this month, she herself wouldn’t be the adopted daughter of the Liu family.

Since she couldn’t start with the Liu family, she could only start with her cheap father and mother.

“Su Yanran, when will your father come home?”

Since he first ate Su Yuyang’s dishes, the little fatty, Liang Jinxuan, no longer thought of having any other food. Even a pineapple bun from the cafeteria couldn’t satisfy him.

He really admired Su Yanran. After eating delicious meals made by Father Su, she could still eat other food so calmly.

Could it be that his parents’ craftsmanship was too bad that they formed such a strong contrast?

Unfortunately, he went to Su Yanran’s house for three or four days in a row but he couldn’t meet Father Su, let alone eat the food that Father Su made.

“Why would your Dad hide from me? What did I do wrong? Say it, and I will change!”

He said as such with exaggerated expressions and painful eyes. Su Yanran had become accustomed to his daily shenanigans at the same table.

“My Dad goes to work. Don’t your parents work too?”

“Aw! Money is so evil! How can it exploit and enslave such a good cook as Daddy Su… Ah no, such a good man! Come on, I’ll give you and Daddy Su all my pocket money, and I’ll support you later!”

After that, he reached for his small wallet and took out a mere two or three yuan. He proceeded to blame himself for being too gluttonous and not saving much money.

However, it didn’t matter to him. In the future, he planned to hand over all the pocket money given to him by his parents, and intended to even ask them to increase his pocket money. If they don’t meet his demands, he will run away from home and live in the Su’s house!

“…”

Seeing that Liang Jinxuan was struggling, searching his whole body up and down, and handing her the 99 cents he found from the schoolbag desk, Su Yanran wanted to swear.

She didn’t want Liang Jinxuan to raise her! Neither does Dad!

“Cough cough, there’s only a little money, but this is me giving it to you wholeheartedly. I will work hard to make money to support you.”

Su Yanran felt like hitting someone.

However, the thought had only crossed her mind before people started cheering in the classroom.

“Oh! Liang Jinxuan proposed to Su Yanran!!!”

“Liang Jinxuan wants to provide for Su Yanran with 99 cents!!!”

As she heard that, Su Yanran felt ashamed and angry. What is this all about? Liang Jinxuan clearly just wanted to eat. How did it turn to a proposal?

However, Liang Jinxuan didn’t explain, but still stretched his hand out in front of her, looking at her like he wouldn’t stop until she did.

In fact, Liang Jinxuan was also a little stunned by the crowd, but then thought, ‘well, if he married Su Yanran, Father Su would be his father, and a Father should take good care of his son!’
