Thinking of this, Yan Xi wobbled and she looked extremely weak. She glanced at Gu Shen’s expression from the corner of her eye and then held her head with both hands. She shouted unhappily, “What’s wrong? Why am I suddenly so dizzy? I need to go back to my room to rest for a while. If there’s anything you want to talk to me about, talk later.”

With that, she staggered towards her room without looking at Gu Shen’s facial expression.

Gu Shen chuckled. He did not forget to instruct Xiaolan, who was beside him.

“Go and hold Madam.”

After returning to her room and closing the door, Yan Xi heaved a sigh of relief.

Luckily, she got away with it.

Downstairs, Gu Shen asked Xiaoyue, “What has Madam been doing at home recently?”

Xiaoyue didn’t dare to not answer. “Madam has been reading medical books recently and often asks me to teach her cooking. A few days ago, she even secretly ate half a bucket of Haagen-Dazs.”

Gu Shen only placed his attention on the first thing she mentioned. “What medical book?”

“I don’t know either. It seems to be nerve-related. Madam is very impressive. She can remember it after looking at it once.”

“Is that so?” Gu Shen’s eyes darkened.

…

Because her legs hurt so much that she could not do anything, Yan Xi lay on the bed and opened the stock market app to check the funds she had bought with the red packet that Old Master Gu gave her a few days ago.

“Five million!”

Yan Xi sat up on the bed, then she hissed and fell back onto the bed in pain. However, she could not hide the surprise and excitement on her face.

The medical equipment fund and oil-rich chemical funds she bought a few days ago had increased by so much! A total of five million!

Yan Xi stared at the phone screen, counting from the single digit to the million digits. She still felt that it was a little unreal. If she had known earlier, she would have bought more and earned more. When the time came, she would use this money to invest in some films and television works, and she would be able to walk to live like a crazy rich lady.

While she was lost in euphoria, her phone suddenly rang and interrupted her dream.

Yan Xi looked down and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She thought for a while and picked it up. “Hello?”

It sounded like a middle-aged man. His voice was unsteady, as if he had not rested for several days.

“Hello, I’m Zhang Ning, the director of a drama called ‘The Duchess of Zhen’. Thank you for your love for this drama and your review of it. I’m sorry to inform you that this drama will be terminated because of funding issues. Thank you very much for your support…”

Yan Xi did not pay attention to the rest of what he said. “The Duchess of Zhen’ was the first drama Gu An acted in. Not only could it become popular, the profits were also enormous, and Gu An could become famous overnight.

However, she did not expect that they would run into financial problems and had to terminate it.

Because Yan Xi remained silent for a long time, the director asked, “Madam, are you still listening? I’m sorry if this news is making you sad.”

“I’m still listening.” Yan Xi knew that she had to invest her money somewhere to prevent herself from overspending. Before Zhang Ning hung up the phone, she quickly asked, “Director, there’s an investor here. Do you need her?”

Zhang Ning was stunned. He was still unable to believe that he would receive a windfall so easily.

Besides, judging from her pretty and lively voice, she was obviously a young lady. Was she bluffing him by talking about investors?

After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Ning asked, “Madam, who wants to be our investor?”

“Me.” Yan Xi smiled. “I’ve seen the script for this drama. The prospects are very good. I plan to invest ten million.” Five hundred from the funds and five hundred from the bank card that Gu Shen gave her.

“If you don’t believe me, you can come to Yan City to talk to me in person and sign the contract.”

Zhang Ning was struck dumb by every word that Yan Xi uttered.

“Are you busy?” Yan X said.

Zhang Ning answered immediately, “No! No! Please tell me when and where. I can come as you see fit!”

“Next Wednesday, Anxi Road Cafe.” By then, her legs should be better.

“Okay! No problem!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ning took a long time to come to his senses. He stood by the road and looked up at the blue sky. He immediately put his palms together and bowed piously.

God blessed him so that this drama could continue..
