Chapter 25

Although Alice had caused some trouble, the outcome might not have been as clear at the beginning, but he still managed to complete his plan. Moreover, it was a pleasant surprise he had never expected. Therefore, after bidding farewell to Li Su Jing and her daughter, Li Zhengxi's mood was quite good.

Especially when he saw Alice, who was very unhappy beside him, his mood became even better. He deliberately teased her, "Hey, darling, what's wrong with you? You were so热情 to me just now!"

Then he deliberately stared at her full, almost overflowing, snow-white chest, smacked his lips, and said teasingly, "Wow, fiancée, I still want to live a few more years!"

Hmph! Alice gritted her teeth. She really didn't expect that before she could even start her mischief, she had already lost. This guy was just too lucky, having met the Jeong sisters and even started to have ideas about them.

More importantly, although she had caused trouble, according to the timeline, the talent scout from S*M Company wouldn't discover the sisters for several months. This meant that the possibility of this guy succeeding was not small.

She was almost driven mad, but now that things had come to this, she couldn't do anything about it. The more angry she got, the more pleased this guy would be. So, after pinching Li Zhengxi hard, she immediately turned sunny, hugging him with a grin and cooing, "Alright, I won't mind that you shouted at me just now. Let's go!"

This was too strange, there must be a conspiracy! Li Zhengxi thought, and he pretended to be exhausted, then tried to say, "I'm really too tired. Why don't we go home first and come back tomorrow?"

Poor Alice, besides giving him an extremely disdainful look, completely ignored him.

It was another crazy shopping spree, and another hour passed. Li Zhengxi held over ten shopping bags of various sizes, including a jar of braised pig's trotters, but this wasn't for him to eat; it was to feed the still energetic demon in front of him.

As if to deliberately torment him, during this hour, he had to feed her several snacks, while he didn't even get a sip of water.

He really couldn't take it anymore. On the third floor of Lotte Department Store, Li Zhengxi, who was both tired and hungry, started to act like a scoundrel. No matter how Alice pouted and pulled, he refused to move, thinking to himself, "If you have the ability, carry me!"

Seeing him like this, Alice first became angry, then her eyes darted around. After a while, she seemed to compromise again, saying, "Alright, then you have to wait for me!" and made a threatening gesture with her small fist.

Li Zhengxi pursed his lips, but finally, he was relieved to be free from this demon. His eyes lit up as he quickly focused on the braised pig's trotters and started to enjoy them.

Ding-dong, just as he was eating happily, his phone rang. Li Zhengxi wiped his hands with a tissue and opened his phone, somewhat annoyed. But when he saw the number, he smiled and said to the other party, "Uncle, I'm very busy now!"

On the other end, Park Dong-jae laughed and said, "Busy flirting with girls, huh!" This surprised Li Zhengxi, making him think Park Dong-jae was in the department store, so he quickly looked around.

In the phone, Park Dong-jae continued, "Alright, no more jokes. I want to ask you if you're interested in going to scout locations with us?"

Scouting locations, selecting locations is the last task in the pre-production phase. After this, they could start filming. However, this work is usually done by the producer, director, cinematographer, art director, and even the sound engineer, not the screenwriter.

But Park Dong-jae's initiative to invite him showed his trust and closeness. However, Li Zhengxi didn't want to go. He was busy with his new study plan, but he could help out if needed.

Thinking this, he opened the Devil Entertainment in his mind, checked the information, and then replied, "No, Minister Park, but I do have a few good suggestions. Actually, when I wrote the script, I based it on those impressions!"

Park Dong-jae was surprised, "Oh!" and then continued, "For example, the beach where the main characters stay, I thought of Haejinpo Beach in Goseong County, Gangwon Province. It's very famous and beautiful. You can check it out. And there's more..."

"Wait, Zhengxi, wait!" Park Dong-jae clearly valued Li Zhengxi's opinion and immediately stopped him. After preparing paper and pen, he let him continue.

"Okay, there's also Hyanggye Elementary School in Hyanggye-ri, Yangyang County, Gangwon Province; then there's Samyang Ranch in Hwacheon-ri, Pyeongchang County, Gangwon Province; and Cheongho-dong Village in Sokcho City, Gangwon Province. These are places I've been to, and they have great scenery, suitable for filming..."

After a while, Li Zhengxi finished giving the general information, took another bite of the pig's trotter, and said teasingly, "Minister Park, if my suggestions are suitable, remember to give me some compensation!"

Park Dong-jae on the other end was delighted and teased, "Sure, if you come with us, I can even consider changing the female lead to your favorite Song Hye-kyo..."

Before he finished, a fragrant breeze filled the air, and Alice's head came close, just in time to hear the last part. She gave him a disdainful look and spat, "Shameless!"

How was this shameless? Li Zhengxi pursed his lips, too lazy to deal with her, and hung up the phone. However, when he saw two men eyeing him from a distance behind Alice, he felt a sense of foreboding. Unfortunately, he couldn't escape.

Alice had already tightly hugged his arm and dragged him to a Versace counter about ten meters away. She pointed to a set of elegant, light beige dresses in the counter and cooed, "Darling, I really like this set of clothes..."

What did she mean? Any man who wasn't too stupid would know that this was the time to spend money to make the beauty happy. However, this demon had always paid for herself before.

He glanced at the price tag and was shocked. It was 1,280,000 Korean won, not some cheap market goods. He couldn't agree to this.

However, with so many people watching, he couldn
