Hidden Marriage 99 Days: Please Restrain Yourself - Chapter 219

Chapter 219: Because I’m Your Father!

Li Haoran was very upset at the incident too. “I’ve already got someone to settle this. And things on Weibo are only trendy for a while. Xueqing has already apologized and this will pass soon. It won’t affect Xueqing’s future.”

Fang Zhili still felt indignant.

Of course she knew this!

But how could she just let it go after her daughter had been attacked this way?

Fang Zhili was obviously unhappy with this outcome.

But she lay her hand on his chest gently. With a coquettish voice, she said, “Hubby, you’re not wrong to say that. But Xueqing has been pure and innocent all along. Everything that has happened, she has just been duped into playing along with it. I know Nian Nian is unhappy with us, but isn’t she being too mean to Xueqing…”

Li Haoran placed his hand over hers. “Nian Nian is my daughter too. But she’s really gone too far this time without considering the impact it’ll have on Xueqing.”

Fang Zhili was happy to hear that, but she maintained her composure. “Hubby, Nian Nian has made the headlines a little too much recently. I don’t think this is good for a girl. It might even affect her career in this industry. After all… the winds howl around the highest peaks. It’s better to be a little more low-key.”

She was drawing circles on his chest while talking.

Li Haoran couldn’t hold it back any longer and reached under her skirt. “You’re right, she’s too much.”

“Mm… ah… Hubby…” Fang Zhili grabbed his hand. “Isn’t Manya Chocolates looking for an endorser recently? I heard that the male lead is Qin Liangzhi. Let Xueqing do it, her image is the most suitable.”

“Sure, whatever you say.”

“Mm… Hubby, I love you…”

The parts to be shot on Shengnan Island could be done in about two weeks’ time.

But it took them an additional 23 days in total.

This was way more than expected, and it upset the Director.

They were planning to return to Guang City, but that was called off too. Instead, they had to head to another city to finish shooting the remaining parts.

Just as they were about to board the plane, Li Haoran’s call came in.

What a rare caller.

“What’s it?” Li Beinian leaned against the seat, her voice lazy.

Li Haoran immediately got upset at her attitude. “Is this how you talk to your dad? How rude!”

“Oh, I’m sorry, Dad. What’s the matter?” An insincere response.

Li Haoran swallowed his anger. “I heard you took up the Manya Chocolates advertisement?”

“Oh… that.” Li Beinian combed her fingers through her hair and smiled. “Yup.”

“You’re a newbie, this sort of advertisement has a high benchmark to hit. It won’t be good for your future progression.”

Li Beinian knew what he was getting at. Her eyes went cold as she slowly said, “It’s alright, I enjoy going for such challenging stuff.”

“You’re already in the limelight now. If you take this up, a lot of people will be jealous of you.”

“So?”

“So, you should let someone else have this instead.”

“And that’s because?”

Li Haoran did not know what to say initially but ended up bellowing. “Because I’m your father!”

He then realized that he’d been too harsh. He mellowed down and said, “Haven’t you been thinking of getting a new car? What model would you like? Dad will buy it for you!”
