"Brother Xuan, no, don't freeze me out. I'll do anything for you, I'll kneel for you..." Mu Mu cried loudly.
"Get out!" Chu Mingxuan showed no mercy.
Before Mu Mu could say anything more, she was dragged away by security guards. Now she couldn't even be a third-tier celebrity.
Chu Mingxuan smiled at Li Se and said, "Why did you suddenly come to my company? Do you need a celebrity to endorse something?"
Li Se explained the need for a celebrity endorsement for the beauty ointment.
"Leave it to me." Chu Mingxuan patted his chest and said, "I'll find you a very good female star. Just pay this star a fee, and I won't take a cut."
With Chu Mingxuan's help, Li Se and Xia Bingyun found a female star who was excellent in temperament and appearance. She was also not demanding like Mu Mu and appeared very humble. After signing the contract, they left the entertainment company.
Xia Bingyun breathed a sigh of relief, "The celebrity endorsement is finally sorted out. I haven't interacted with celebrities much before, but I've heard that many of them are demanding. I've experienced it today and finally understand how arrogant some celebrities can be."
"Can we relax for a while now?" Li Se smiled.
Xia Bingyun gave him a look, "What are you thinking? This is just the beginning. There are still many things to do."
"You've worked hard," Li Se said, feeling a little concerned.
"You know I've worked hard?" Xia Bingyun huffed. It was rare for her to show such a girlish side; it would have been impossible before.
"Put down your work and rest for a while," Li Se said, truly concerned.
Xia Bingyun replied, "That won't do. The company is on the rise, and the new product is still on sale. We can't rest. There are too many things to handle. And once the publicity is in place and our beauty cream becomes famous, there will be countless companies wanting to cooperate with us."
Upon returning to the company, Li Se found that he couldn't help with anything. After staying for over an hour, he left and returned to the clinic. He found that Elder Huang and the others were gone, and Huang Shanshan was the one seeing patients. He knew that Huang Shanshan had the least medical skill in this traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
"Why are you seeing patients?" Li Se asked, confused.
Huang Shanshan replied somewhat displeased, "Do you think my medical skills are not good enough?"
"That's not it. Compared to your grandfather and the others, you're only fit to dispense medicine," Li Se said, rubbing his nose.
"Go to hell!" Huang Shanshan was annoyed, but what he said seemed to be true. A month ago, when Li Se was seeing patients, she wasn't even qualified to dispense medicine. However, in this traditional Chinese medicine clinic, with so many experienced TCM doctors, her medical skills were improving daily. Coupled with Li Se's guidance, her skills would definitely surpass Elder Huang and the others in the future, and she might even be eligible for imperial physician status.
Since Li Se was seeing patients, some people were initially skeptical of his skills. But upon hearing that it was the divine doctor Li, the queue became very long. Therefore, Li Se was extremely busy all day, almost without a break. Huang Shanshan, standing beside him, was all smiles.
Finally, as it was nearing closing time, a voluptuous woman entered. Her appearance and demeanor were in no way inferior to Huang Shanshan's.
For some reason, when Huang Shanshan saw this woman, a sense of hostility flickered in her eyes. Perhaps beautiful women would feel a sense of rivalry towards other beautiful women.
"Officer Tang, why are you here?" Li Se asked in surprise, looking at the woman before him, who was none other than Tang Xi.
Tang Xi noticed Huang Shanshan's hostile gaze, rolled her eyes, and said coldly, "Pervert, come with me."
"Damn it, Officer Tang, speak properly. This is defamation!" Li Se said angrily.
"Heh, it wasn't like this when you came to my house that day," Tang Xi retorted sarcastically.
Li Se was speechless. Noticing the cold gaze behind him, he immediately understood that Tang Xi was doing this on purpose. He quickly explained, "Shanshan, it's a misunderstanding, all of this is a misunderstanding..."
"Misunderstanding?" Tang Xi's anger flared. "You did that to me, and now you're calling it a misunderstanding? You climbed over the wall to my house yourself; I didn't force you. And now you say it's a misunderstanding? Heh, men are all like this!"
"My dear aunt, I'll go with you," Li Se said, extremely frustrated. If this continued, Huang Shanshan would explode.
Leaving the clinic, Li Se got into Tang Xi's car. "Tell me, what do you want?" he asked directly.
"A month ago, several people died in Fuxi county, and the cause of death was unknown. After my investigation, you happened to be back in Fuxi county during that period. Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you?" Tang Xi said coldly.
"Nothing," Li Se replied nonchalantly. "If you have evidence, then arrest me. I won't admit to anything I haven't done."
He had indeed killed several people that day, but the police would never find any evidence, nor could they even determine the cause of death. The reason Tang Xi suspected him was simply because she knew he possessed some unusual skills.
"You'd better confess!" Tang Xi said angrily.
Li Se acted as if he was a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, even looking at Tang Xi provocatively, "Confess what? Or how about I come to your house and give you a good explanation?"
"You!" Tang Xi was furious, but she had no way to deal with Li Se. His methods were too clever; even she couldn't figure anything out. However, she was very sure that these people were definitely killed by Li Se.
Taking a deep breath, she said, "You're only asking for trouble by acting like this. The law enforcement agencies have already noticed you, but I've suppressed it. For now, only I am watching you."
"Officer Tang, the way you say that makes it seem like me being watched by you isn't being watched by law enforcement," Li Se said speechlessly.
"Let's go, come with me to a place now!" Tang Xi stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped off. Soon, they arrived at a house that looked quite old, with at least a hundred years of history. Such houses were rare nowadays.
Just by looking at the feng shui of the house, Li Se couldn't help but admire, "This feng shui is extraordinary."
"You know feng shui too?" Tang Xi asked, somewhat surprised.
Li Se couldn't help but show off, saying, "This is clearly a 'mountain-leaning' feng shui arrangement. As the saying goes, 'live off the mountain,' and 'live off the water.' In feng shui, houses built leaning on a mountain have a certain aura of authority. Because the mountain it leans on is not just a physical mountain, but can also represent being a support for others. Therefore..."
He paused noticeably here, smiled, and continued, "The owner of this residence is no ordinary person."
