Chapter 56 Jealousy
There was no reluctance or lingering affection. After Xi Leng sent Li Ruan back to Xingsheng Hotel, he quickly left with his people.

Liruan also received a notice from the crew that the filming will resume tomorrow. After confirming that she can film, in order to take care of the injured Liruan, she was only scheduled to have three scenes tomorrow.

This is a completely different treatment from the previous days when she had to work around the clock. She can also sleep in.

After Xi Leng left, manager Qiao and Xiao Yuan finally saw their own artists.

"Liruan, you are awesome! You caused such a big mess that the entire company's PR department is working overtime to control the comments for you, but you are so busy being sweet with your sponsor that I can't even see you!"

Xiaoyuan stood aside and watched Sister Na get angry with a smile without saying anything.

Li Ruan sat slumped on the chair in the room, her short skirt tightly wrapped around her upper body, revealing her good figure completely. Her two long legs were so smooth that not even a pore could be seen, let alone sweat hairs. After taking a glance at her, Joanna's momentum suddenly weakened.

"Liruan, I think it would be a waste if you don't participate in a variety show with your looks and figure.

No, let’s take another one.”

Judging from Liruan's current appearance, she can attract a lot of fans just by standing there and doing nothing, right?
"I never said I wouldn't take on variety shows, but it has to be the right time and the right variety show. Right now, the crew of "The Immortal and the Devil" is almost using one day as two days. If I take time off to shoot a variety show, Director Ming will probably go crazy."

"Okay then. I'll get you a variety show after you finish filming this drama. Director Wang has contacted me before. He's going to start a new variety show and can give me a spot. I don't know what variety show it will be, but Director Wang is reliable. I'll get you in when the time comes."

She was speechless. She was put on this variety show without even knowing what it was. If she didn't know Qiao Na's character, she would have suspected that this woman would sell her out one day.

"Okay, my dear sister Na, you can make the arrangements."

"I say, are you really okay?"

Li Ruan: "Do I look like I'm in trouble? I'm fine!"

Qiao Na was still worried, so she reached out to pull Li Ruan's wrist: "I still won't be assured unless I see it with my own eyes. Let me take a look at the wound on your hand first. Did you change the dressing on time?"

Li Ruan did not stop her. The wound on her wrist was not a big deal. If she was not afraid that others would think too much, she would take one pill and it would definitely not even leave a white mark.

Joanna finished the examination quickly and then silently rewrapped the gauze.

Anyway, I was speechless after watching it.

"The police only found the prop master and no other clues. You should be careful in the crew. People's hearts are hidden. Who knows if that person has given up?"

Li Ruan nodded obediently, "Yes, I know."

Qiao Na's ears and hands felt a little itchy, and she wanted to touch the little girl's head. This girl was so delicate even when she cut her finger before, but this time after falling from such a high place, she neither posted on Weibo to complain to her fans nor complained or lost her temper. She really changed and became more sensible.

Seeing that Sister Na's anger had subsided, Liruan looked at Xiaoyuan and said, "You have lost at least 15 pounds, right?"

Xiao Yuan immediately ran to her side and squatted down holding the armrest of the chair, "Sister Ruan, I really admire you. Your eyes are like a scale. I have lost exactly 15 and a half pounds today. Look, am I not very slim now?"

Qiao Na suddenly perked up, "Li Xiaoruan, speaking of this, I have to talk to you. Have I ever let you down in the past three years of taking care of you? I am both your father and mother, worrying about you and working hard for you, and you hide good things secretly without knowing it..." Li Ruan quickly got up and rummaged through the suitcase, took out a small medicine bottle and threw it to Qiao Na, "Here, this is the bottle, one pill a day, as long as you don't eat a pig a day, you will never get fat."

Qiao Na took the medicine bottle in a hurry, with a smile on her face. After laughing, she couldn't help but ask: "Is this medicine only for me, or did you give it to each sister?"

Liruan rolled her eyes at her, which was rare. How come Sister Na still has a bit of Daiyu's flavor?
"I made three bottles in total, Xiaoyuan, you, Shen Qianqian, and nothing else."

Qiao Na was jealous: "I'm actually ranked behind Shen Qianqian? Three years, three years, isn't even worth the few days you and Shen Qianqian have known each other?"

Liruan: ...It's her fault! She will never make this mistake again. She really can't stand Sister Na's jealousy!

"Sister Na, is there a possibility that I didn't give it to you because you have such a good figure that you don't need to lose weight at all?"

Qiao Na thought about Xiao Yuan's previous figure, and then thought about Shen Qianqian's face shape, and immediately all her jealousy disappeared, and she was even so happy that she almost lost her mind.

After dinner, Joanna returned to her room, and Liruan had time to ask Xiaoyuan about the pharmaceutical factory.

"The approval process has already been completed. My father has found management personnel for me at the pharmaceutical factory. We don't have to worry about the approval, production and marketing of the drugs."

The patent application process is a bit slow, but the drug can be produced once it passes the review. Liruan uses a pure Chinese medicine formula, and the approval speed is faster than that of Western medicine.

Xiao Yuan, "Sister Ruan, my dad asked me to ask you how we can cooperate on this pharmaceutical factory. He said that if you want to have full control, he can just sell the pharmaceutical factory to you at the original price. I say, doesn't Sister Ruan have a financial backer? Why not just use this pharmaceutical factory to test his strength."

Why would such an outstanding person like her sister Ruan be accepted by that so-called sponsor?

But now that he has taken advantage of everything, naturally he has to pay something.

This incident can also help us see how sincere the sponsor is towards Sister Ruan.

Liruan: That’s a good suggestion, but don’t suggest it next time.

"Although the pharmaceutical factory has not yet opened, you know the effect of the weight loss pills, and you will definitely make a lot of money in the future. If you let others get involved, wouldn't that just put the profits into other people's pockets?"

Xiao Yuan: That's not what she meant, okay? She meant to let Ruanjie's sponsor give it away for free. But forget it, Ruanjie definitely doesn't want to take advantage of others, so she said that.

"So what Sister Ruan means is..."

"I will invest in you with a prescription. In addition to the weight loss pills, I will give you two more prescriptions. One is for men to strengthen their virility, and the other is for women to tighten their skin. The effect will be visible to the naked eye after you lose weight.

I want a 40 percent stake in the three prescriptions.

Your family's investment also accounts for 40%. If you feel that the prescription is not worth 40% of the shares, I can invest more money.

Also, if you manage the company, you will be given another 5% of the shares, and the remaining 15% will be distributed to executives who have made outstanding contributions to the company."
