    Spoil Your Wife Like Your Life Depends On It (TN: I¡¯m going to use the SWLL to abbreviate this because the other abbreviation is a pain in the ass)


    Chapter 1


    August 3rd, 6:30 pm


    The summer heat in Senchuan City is inhumane, and it is even worse on the set of the web drama ¡°Academy of Fine Arts¡±. Because of the male lead¡¯s schedule, the director is frantically speeding the progress of shooting up, and the various props scattered on the ground adds to that chaos.


    After filming a scene in the scorching sun, Ye Kehuan felt like she is being roasted.


    Sitting down, Ye Kehuan coughed twice and took the phone from her assistant¡¯s hands to browse the internet, opening a black post about herself only to see all the netizens scolding her¡ª


    [Troubled Netizen: ¡°Is Ye Kehuan¡¯s face built like walls? How many times has she had a facelift without some AC count in her heart? Can normal people grow that kind of European-style big double eyelids? Can her nose be so high? And still have the nerve to send out press releases every day for this and that, I really want to vomit when I see her face!]


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but touch her own face. Just kidding, it¡¯s natural. And the press releases were not what she wanted to send, ah ¡­¡­


    [Netizen 123: ¡°Is Ye Kehuan dead today? I¡¯ll ask again tomorrow if not. :)¡±]


    Seeing this message, Ye Kehuan squeezed her coke can until it was scrunched and said to herself, ¡°Don¡¯t come tomorrow, don¡¯t ask your Sister Ye, I¡¯m full of energy and alive and can still fight for another five hundred years.¡±


    Ye Kehuan left the post after.


    The assistant looked at the side, wanting to say something, and finally opened a bottle of water and handed it to Ye Kehuan: ¡°Sister Huan, take it easy, don¡¯t with those people!¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened, took the water, drank two mouthfuls, and nodded: ¡°I¡¯m not angry, I¡¯m not angry, only fools will be angry.¡±


    After hearing this, the assistant wiped a sweat, pursed her lips, and smiled: ¡°That¡¯s good, that¡¯s good!¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded and stopped talking. However, even though Ye Kehuan said this, her heart is still suffocated from those words.


    The company gave her a black and red route, and the current situation is more black than red. She is like a brick, moved to wherever a topic of interest is needed.


    At this time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s phone rang again. She picked it up and saw that all major tabloids were pushing the news of ¡°Jiang Laien returning to China¡±.


    After seeing the words Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan froze for several moments before she felt her temples exploding with pain and turned the news to the sky.


    Who is Jiang Laien? Jiang Laien debuted in her third year of high school, although she did not have frequent activities in the entertainment circle at that time.


    Nowadays, despite Jiang Laien being only 25 years old, she has been in the industry for more than eight years. She is known as the national goddess. All the TV series she filmed are hits, which also goes for movies. She became a queen of television two years after her debut, and a film queen three years after. She is a strong dark horse in the entertainment circle in recent years and is known as a rare genius of the century. Beauty and strength coexist, and popularity and acting skills fly together.


    However, what everyone doesn¡¯t know is that Jiang Laien is also an old acquaintance of Ye Kehuan. And also, a person whom she doesn¡¯t want to communicate with even when she¡¯s dying of old age.


    However, they are now peers by coincidence, and whereas Jiang Laien is experiencing good fortune, she herself is has become endlessly black (TN: black meaning hated/has a terrible reputation).


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan closed her eyes and let out a sigh to comfort herself: ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay. Our positions are different. You shouldn¡¯t be able to meet each other in the short term. It doesn¡¯t matter if you do your own thing. Namo Amitabha, good good1.¡±  After comforting herself, Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien on the screen again, which dredged up many unwanted memories, so she threw her phone aside again.


    At the same time, in Liangcheng International Airport


    After greeting the fans who came to meet her after her flight, Jiang Laien arrived at the airport parking building through the VIP access, put the suitcase in the trunk of a nanny car, and finally got in.


    Because she made two films abroad in a row and took a half-year vacation, she has not returned for a long time.


    In the blink of an eye, she felt as if the architecture of Liangcheng seem to have changed and become unfamiliar.


    After the driver drove the car out of the airport, her agent, Zhao Yunqing, spoke: ¡°By the way, Laien, would you like to consider participating in a variety show or something? I know you don¡¯t participate in these things, but domestic reality shows have become extremely popular recently!¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled after listening: ¡°I don¡¯t want to engage in these artificial things, I just want to concentrate on filming.¡±


    For her, the thing she wants to do most is film. As for fame and wealth, she doesn¡¯t have many thoughts. For fame, she¡¯s already popular enough, and she doesn¡¯t lack money whatsoever. So, for the entire time, she has been able to be very willful and unrestrained.


    ¡°Participating in a variety show can also be regarded as an adjustment since you haven¡¯t been in the country for a while,¡± Zhao Yunqing said, not giving up, ¡°Look at you, you¡¯re so popular but disappeared for a time. Everyone is looking forward to your return. So, if you do a reality show now, it would be absolutely explosive! Think about it, a national goddess who has never participated in a variety show, doing nothing else but personally finding ingredients to cook in the kitchen, and this alone is already very eye catching!¡±


    ¡°So I just need to catch the attention of fans.¡± Jiang Laien stroked her hair, revealing a white and elegant neck.


    Zhao Yun paused slightly a continued: ¡°Anyways, there¡¯s recently been a reality show called ¡°Food is Ready¡± that has been asking you to consider. Recently, everyone, men and women, young and old, have been watching it.¡±


    It¡¯s not unreasonable that Zhao Yunqing wants her to join this program, since after all, it is very popular. Although Jiang Laien doesn¡¯t need to participate in any variety show to break out on her own, who doesn¡¯t want their artists to become more popular? It¡¯s the same reason that people don¡¯t mind too much money.


    Jiang Laien still shook her head unconsciously and unlocked the phone to open Weibo that was recently downloaded to read the news.


    After scrolling and scrolling, when Jiang Laien saw an interactive Weibo about Ye Kehuan in the official ¡°Food is Ready¡± Weibo, her eyelashes trembled.


    Ye Kehuan? Is this Ye Kehuan the Ye Kehuan she knows?


    Then Jiang Laien looked at Zhao Yunqing again: ¡°This Ye Kehuan¡­ newly debuted?¡±


    ¡°She¡­Ah, yes, she is an older newcomer who has just debuted for over a year. She is as black as coal and was scolded half to death after she started.¡± Zhao Yunqing replied casually.


    ¡°Really¡­¡± Jiang Laien pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose.


    ¡°Yeah, you went abroad for too long and you haven¡¯t been online during your break. It¡¯s normal if you don¡¯t know. Ye Kehuan only debuted in the middle of last year. Although she has looks, her acting skills are terrible.¡± Zhao Yun sighed lightly.


    Zhao Yunqing continued to speak: ¡°In short, this person is full of negative scandals. They say she used to be a little lady¡­¡±


    Zhao Yunqing shifted in her seat and continued: ¡°They say she smoked, drank, and fought during her student days, had many abortions, coveted fresh meat small flowers, but also always sending what the press release, and her fans can wait to slap her to the ground¡­¡­¡±


    Truly? Jiang Laien looked at the phone. Why didn¡¯t she know that Ye Kehuan was such a person?


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien squeezed her fingers and pushed up her sunglasses. Quietly, she continued to scroll through Ye Kehuan¡¯s Weibo. Looking at the photos, she could tell that this is indeed the Ye Kehuan she knows and looks exactly the same.


    ¡°By the way, the show that Ye Kehuan is participating in is the ¡°Food is Ready¡± show that you asked me about, right?¡± Jiang Laien asked suddenly.


    ¡°Yes¡­¡± Zhao Yun nodded lightly, suddenly worried that Jiang Laien would refuse because of Ye Kehuan¡¯s poor reputation. She suddenly regretted that she had just said so many bad things.


    Jiang Laien pressed the sunglasses down a little to look at her, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes: ¡°Help me contact the program team.¡±


    It was Friday in a blink of an eye.


    After filming the last scene in the swimming pool, Ye Kehuan dragged her tired body a few steps before putting on her clothes and taking out a bottle of mineral water, leaving for the building of the variety show group for a meeting.


    Before reaching the door of the conference room, Ye Kehuan felt her phone vibrate as she held the door handle. She walked aside to pick up the phone: ¡°Hey, Sister Cheng.¡±


    ¡°The program group of ¡®Food is Ready¡¯ will be holding a meeting later, don¡¯t forget.¡± Her agent Cheng Xin said.


    ¡°I know,¡± Ye Kehuan paced down the corridor, looked out the window again, and whispered, ¡°I¡¯m already at the conference room door,¡± she whispered.


    ¡°Oh, that¡¯s good! By the way, you are lucky that this season¡¯s show is estimated to be a big hit! It will usher in unprecedented ratings!¡± Sister Cheng said almost every word with a smile. She can feel her joy listening through the phone.


    ¡°Ah? What do you mean?¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback.


    ¡°Do you know who joined this show?¡± Cheng Xin said, building suspense.


    ¡°Who?¡± Ye Kehuan asked casually after taking a sip of water.


    In the next second, Cheng Xin yelled with great enthusiasm: ¡°Of course it¡¯s Jiang Laien, the popular movie queen! A national goddess with her own traffic, isn¡¯t it crazy?!¡±


    Immediately, Ye Kehuan choked on the water and started coughing nonstop.


    Jiang Laien? Ha, could this be the legendary narrow road2? Ye Kehuan quickly turned her head and looked at the door of the conference room.


    Footnotes:


    1: ÄÏÎÞ°¢ÃÖÍÓ·ðÉÆÔÕÉÆÔÕ ¡ª I¡¯m not sure how to translate this? It¡¯s a Buddhist saying that has lots of nuance that idk how to explain so just think of it as ¡°peace be with me¡± or something I guess


    2: Narrow road: enemies on a narrow road, meaning that fighting is inevitable.


    Translator¡¯s note: I like this series. It¡¯s very cute and romantic. So I¡¯m lazily translating a couple chapters to see how it goes.

 CH 2

    Chapter 2


    Hold on, wasn¡¯t Jiang Laien someone who never participates in variety shows or something?


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Cheng Xin asked again when Ye Kehuan stopped talking.


    ¡°Nothing¡­¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she hung up the phone.


    After hanging up, she stared at the phone screen for a while, and finally stretched out her hand slowly to grasp the door handle of the conference room.


    Thinking that Jiang Laien should be sitting inside at this moment, Ye Kehuan pursed her lips tightly, her heartbeat speeding up inexplicably.


    ¡°Click¡ª¡±


    Finally, she opened the door.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes swept around the meeting room, only to see a woman with long, fluffy hair wearing smoky blue suspenders sitting inside.


    The woman¡¯s eyes were black and white, adorned with slightly raised, long eyelashes, and pupils that seem to hold a thousand stars. Her figure was perfect and exuded refined temperament that was exclusive to Jiang Laien.


    Although she was extraordinary, Jiang Laien did not seem to be conceited at all.


    ¡°Arrived?¡± Someone said to Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Ah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, turned to close the door, and walked toward the conference table, ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°Sit down, there¡¯s an empty spot there.¡± The program crew member pointed to the empty seat next to Jiang Laien and uncapped a pen.


    Ye Kehuan nodded, took a step forward, bowed her head, and walked in.


    Jiang Laien also tilted her head slightly and looked at Ye Kehuan next to her.


    ¡°Since we are all here, let¡¯s start now.¡± The crew member said.


    ¡°Very well.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded again when she heard the words. She pulled out a notebook and flipped it open.


    The sound of pages flipping filled the conference room.


    The content of the meeting was a bit boring, probably about the program or something. Ye Kehuan wasn¡¯t able to pay attention very well, likely because her focus was on Jiang Laien who was next to her. She kept glancing at her from time to time, distracted.


    Long ago, the Ye and Jiang families lived together as neighbors in the western suburbs of Fenghuang for several years. They were not only neighbors, but classmates as well. Originally, they had no intersection, but they later became glued at the hip.


    Jiang Laien probably moved in during the first year of junior high. When she first saw her, Jiang Laien was carrying a bright yellow backpack, wearing jeans and a large t-shirt, with some unpleasant acne on her body.


    Maybe it was because she had low self-esteem, or maybe it was due to her sensitive and introverted nature, Jiang Laien never took the initiative to talk to anyone and slowly became isolated.


    Almost no one wanted to be friends with her, and what¡¯s more, people even liked to bully her in groups, throwing her textbooks into the sewer, pasting glue on the backside of her pants, and confessing ¡°I love you¡± to the school grass in her name on the school forum.


    Later, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t stand it anymore, so she beat everyone who bullied Jiang Laien. And after that, no one dared to bully Jiang Laien again.


    From then on, Jiang Laien became Ye Kehuan¡¯s little follower. Almost where Ye Kehuan went, Jiang Laien would follow.


    It¡¯s not certain when it started, but later on, probably shortly after Ye Kehuan fell in love with someone, Jiang Laien¡¯s attitude towards Ye Kehuan also changed inexplicably.


    Originally, she would never conflict Ye Kehuan, but after that she began competing with Ye Kehuan on basically anything. She also started to refuse meeting at the bus station together, and even began to run away when she saw Ye Kehuan.


    Then, in the second year of high school, Jiang Laien transferred. Ye Kehuan originally wanted to send her off, but when she finally arrived at the airport, she didn¡¯t go forward but instead just watched from a distance.


    Later, Ye Kehuan also moved, and the two never contacted each other again. They became practically strangers, and Ye Kehuan officially crossed her out of her life.


    On the other side, Jiang Laien¡¯s mind was also wandering.


    Jiang Laien often thinks about this question: Why was she so obsessed with Ye Kehuan?


    Speaking of which, she and Ye Kehuan were old acquaintances, and even used to be particularly good friends.


    It can be said that no one has ever been as kind to her as Ye Kehuan had. No one has ever treated her with so much heart and soul.


    But later, this friendship was destroyed by her own hands. Maybe it was because she was young and ignorant. Or maybe because she was just crazy.


    It was good at first, but later, Ye Kehuan fell in love. After Ye Kehuan fell in love, she felt as if her world had collapsed.


    She originally wanted to ignore it, but she really couldn¡¯t help it since she liked Ye Kehuan. So, when she saw Ye Kehuan with others, she felt very uncomfortable, so much so that she couldn¡¯t watch and could only avoid and distance herself.


    Later, she changed schools.


    When she went to the airport, her heart was still full of reluctance and hesitation. She wrote a very long and very long apology letter to Ye Kehuan and attached new contact information and an address. She wanted to give it to Ye Kehuan, but Ye Kehuan never showed up at the last second, so she turned, left in tears, and broke contact with Ye Kehuan.


    Later, she found that Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t be found on any social media. From that moment on, she vowed that for as long as she lived, she would never repair her relationship with Ye Kehuan.


    But what she didn¡¯t expect was that she still obsessed over Ye Kehuan. Perhaps it was because adolescent feelings are always harder to forget.


    She also wrote many letters to Ye Kehuan, but at the end of the day, none of them were sent, all lying in a postmarked box.


    And now, the sole reason why she came to this show was Ye Kehuan. Yes, if it wasn¡¯t for Ye Kehuan, she wouldn¡¯t even have considered participating, since after all, she was in no shortage of heat.


    As the two minds wandered in parallel, the person from the program group suddenly said: ¡°How about this, the first stop is Bincheng Station, for the time being, Liaen and Ye Kehuan will be placed in a group together. Afterwards, you will choose your groups according to this¡­¡±


    Hearing what the person said, they looked at each other, surprised, but felt that it was reasonable.


    Ye Kehuan woke up from her daydream and suddenly came back to her senses. She glanced at the people in the program group as well as Jiang Laien who was sitting next to her.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, Miss Ye Kehuan, may I ask if there¡¯s anything you¡¯re dissatisfied with?¡± The program planner looked at her and asked.


    ¡°No, of course not.¡± Ye Kehuan was paused and quickly shook her head.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s reaction, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t say much either.


    After the meeting concluded and everyone had dispersed, Ye Kehuan arrived on the ground floor of the building, looked up at the sky for a while, and recalled what had just happened. After a moment of silence, she drove off.


    A few dozen moments later, Ye Kehuan bought some vegetables and fruits and went home.


    The summers in Liangcheng are very peculiar. Although it is hot enough to roast people during the day,it is very refreshing at night, probably because of the many trees.


    The villa that Ye Kehuan lived in wasn¡¯t actually one she bought since she wouldn¡¯t in Liangcheng for too long. She only rented it to be able to move freely for the past six months.


    All the residents in this area were rich, so not only was the landscape and decor very good, but the safety measures were also quite good. It¡¯s also close to the sea, so free time could be spent by the beach sunbathing, drinking orange juice, and digging shells.


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan thought of Jiang Laien again. They had discussed about living together in such a house when they were older.


    When Ye Kehuan was lost in thought, two eleven or twelve-year-old girls bounced past her car, hand in hand.


    The shorter girl held a chocolate bar in her hand and said, hesitatingly, ¡°I don¡¯t dare eat too much, so I¡¯ll give this to you.¡±


    The taller girl listened and blinked, ¡°Why?¡±


    The shorter girl said, ¡°Mom said that if you eat too much, you¡¯ll become ugly and never be able to marry.¡±


    At this time, the taller girl shouted, ¡°Then marry me when you grow up, I won¡¯t despise you!¡±


    Finally, the shorter girl stuffed the chocolate bar into the taller girl¡¯s hand: ¡°Ah, um, well, um, actually, I bought it for you, so take it!¡±


    Ye Kehuan watched and unconsciously chuckled softly. It was quite similar to how she and Jiang Laien was back then.


    Ye Kehuan still remembered that after she helped Jiang Laien beat those bullies, Jiang Laien wanted to get to know and thank her, but she didn¡¯t know how to say it and was still very awkward, so she put things on her table every day. A stack of collector¡¯s edition comics today and a bunch of desserts or something tomorrow.


    Every time Ye Kehuan asked who brought these things, everyone would point to Jiang Laien, and Jiang Laien would say an excuse, like, ¡°I bought the wrong thing, so I¡¯m giving it to you,¡± or ¡°I don¡¯t need these, so you can have them,¡± and many others.


    Later, Ye Kehuan still felt that accepting things like this wasn¡¯t very good, so she strongly refused, which made Jiang Laien anxious to the point where she shouted: ¡°I just want to be friends with you!¡±


    ¡­


    Thinking of this, Ye Ke lowered her head with a smile, and fell silent again.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan picked up her things, got out of the car, and closed the door. She noticed that a truck behind her had also stopped. She could vaguely make out the words ¡°Ankang Moving Company¡± written on it. Someone was unloading cargo from the truck.


    Is this the new roommate that the landlord mentioned before?


    Ye Kehuan pushed her glasses up and turned her head to look. She saw that another car had parked next to the truck. The car door opened, and a woman walked out.


    The woman¡¯s back was straight and elegant, her silhouette very charming. Although it was dark now and the person¡¯s face could not be clearly seen, it still seemed very familiar.


    ¡°That¡­¡± Ye Kehuan stepped forward.


    At this moment, a young boy on a skateboard suddenly rushed out, and because he was unskilled, he couldn¡¯t control the direction, and ran straight into the woman.


    The woman was startled. It was difficult to dodge.


    With sparks flying, Ye Kehuan dashed forward, grabbed the woman by the waist right before she fell on the ground, pulled her into her arms with a slight turn, and held her still.


    At the same time, the woman also wrapped her arms around her neck and nestled in her arms.


    The woman¡¯s body was very soft and exuded a faint fragrance. Inexplicably, Ye Kehuan¡¯s heart beat extremely fast. Her hands were still wrapped around the woman¡¯s soft waist when she asked, ¡°Miss, are you alright?¡±


    At this moment, the woman nodded gently in her arms, her voice soft and feather-like: ¡°I¡¯m alright.¡±


    After hearing the woman¡¯s voice, Ye Kehuan¡¯s body stiffened, and she hurriedly lowered his head. At the same time, the woman raised her head, revealing a small and familiar melon-like face.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s face was instantly filled with disbelief.

    Chapter 3


    The moment she saw Jiang Laien¡¯s face clearly, Ye Kehuan felt that the hand holding her became stiff and thousands of stars suddenly lost their color.


    Jiang Laien was also shocked. She retracted her hand and stood firmly. ¡°Thank you. If it wasn¡¯t for you, I would¡¯ve fell.¡±


    Ye Kehuan froze for a second before hurriedly letting her go like a hot potato. ¡°Why are you here?¡± She asked.


    When she heard that, Jiang Laien turned and pointed to the small villa where Ye Kehuan lived. ¡°I moved here.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her incredulously.


    ¡°The landlord is my friend. They heard that I was looking for a place, so they told me to stay here.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s words weren¡¯t entirely true. She was indeed looking for a house, but she came because she found out that Ye Kehuan lived here.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s back stiffened after hearing this. After a while, she turned her head and said, ¡°Then come in.¡±


    Ye Kehuan took her things after she finished talking, walked quickly with her head bowed, and opened the door first.


    Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s back, not saying much, only letting out a sigh of relief.


    ¡°This place is pretty good,¡± Jiang Laien spoke a moment later, after asking someone to carry her belongings in.


    Ye Kehuan poured a glass of water and held it. She nodded but didn¡¯t answer.


    ¡°Yingying, let¡¯s clean up first and then go out for a meal.¡± Jiang Laien said to her assistant.


    ¡°Sure, just the two of us? Or do you want to invite Sister Qi Li? She seems to be Senchuan as well and she¡¯d be very happy if you invited her! After all, you guys so close!¡± The assistant said.


    When she heard this, Jiang Lien smiled and said: ¡°Then I¡¯ll invite her.¡±


    Qi Li? Close? Ye Kehuan listened to their conversation while squeezing her cup and staring at the sofa. She suddenly felt like an outsider, a side character who had long drifted away from Jiang Laien¡¯s world.


    So many years had passed. They grew up, and their circle of acquaintances were different from each other. They were no longer each other¡¯s best friend, and these changes were quite uncomfortable.


    However, when Jiang Laien picked up the phone and scrolled through her contacts list for a while, she didn¡¯t call Qi Li, but instead took a step towards Ye Kehuan with the intention of asking her if she¡¯d like to have dinner together.


    But at that moment, Ye Kehuan suddenly put down her glass of water and turned around. ¡°You all must be busy. I have an appointment, so I¡¯ll head out first.¡±


    Ye Kehuan left.


    Jiang Lin looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s back and swallowed the words that had come up to her lips.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s assistant also looked over. She glanced Jiang Lai¡¯en and whispered lightly, ¡°I feel that it¡¯s difficult to get along with Ye Kehuan, she doesn¡¯t seem to have any expressions.¡±


    When Jiang Lai¡¯en heard this, her eyes darkened, and she took a deep breath. ¡°It¡¯s alright.¡±


    ¡°Sister Laien, did you invite Sister Qi Li?¡± The assistant asked.


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien came to her senses and shook her head. ¡°No, it would be too sudden. There¡¯s still work tonight, so let¡¯s invite her another time.¡±


    The assistant scratched her head.


    On the other side, after Ye Kehuan left home and got into the car, she pulled on her collar and glanced at the small villa. She slammed her foot on the accelerator without any residual hesitation and drove off to Xingxing Mutton Kebab Grill.


    The mutton kebab restaurant was opened for hobby by her friend Chen Lulu, a rich second-generation who didn¡¯t rely on it for income.


    When Ye Kehuan went to her private box, she directly ordered the entire menu of kebabs.


    ¡°Who upset you? Ordering so many things madly.¡± Chen Lulu spoke while holding a pen and writing on a small notebook.


    ¡°Do I look very upset?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yeah, like you¡¯re going to kill someone.¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s eyes swept at her up and down.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Ye Kehuan continued to look expressionless.


    ¡°Hey, are you sure you¡¯re fine?!¡± Chen Lulu pressed on her arm again.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan raised her head, her face frighteningly gloomy: ¡°I don¡¯t know what to say.¡±


    ¡°What the hell happened?¡± Chen Lulu handed off the menu to the kitchen in the back, sat down beside her, and poured herself a cup of tea.


    After Ye Kehuan told the story of what happened with Jiang Laien, she continued speaking: ¡°Jiang Laien suddenly came to participate in the same variety show with me and moved to the place I rented? What is she thinking?¡±


    After heading this, Chen Lulu¡¯s face instantly became grave. Finally, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Ye Kehuan¡¯s forehead: ¡°I know! She wants to harm you!¡±


    Ye Kehuan was confused and frowned.


    ¡°I¡¯ll stop joking. Then, what about you, what do you think?¡± Chen Lulu asked again.


    Ye Kehuan frowned again. ¡°Me?¡±


    Chen Lulu smiled suddenly. ¡°Yeah. Do you hate her? Do you want to move out? If she doesn¡¯t move, you can move. If you really don¡¯t want to see her, then you move out. Sister Chen can find you a good house in minutes.¡±


    However, Ye Kehuan suddenly stopped talking.


    ¡°What, are you going to?¡± Chen Lulu asked again.


    Ye Kehuan shook her head. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about that later. It¡¯s been busy recently.¡±


    Chen Lulu nodded when she heard this and said nothing more.


    After eating, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t feel like staying out for any longer, so she returned home.


    No one was in the villa, so it was pitch black.


    It seemed like Jiang Laien was not home. After Ye Kehuan went in, she turned on the lights, looked around, and threw the key aside. She changed her shoes for slippers, sat on the sofa, and randomly recalled the previous conversation with Chen Lulu.


    After thinking for a bit, Ye Kehuan stood up again and went upstairs to her room.


    Ye Kehuan washed up and idled in her room. She thought for a moment, and eventually opened the door again to peek out.


    It was quiet. Jiang Laien had not returned.


    So Ye Kehuan walked into her room again and closed the door quietly. When she was about to go lie down on her bed, she got a notification from the WeChat group for the program.


    Ye Kehuan picked up her phone and opened the group chat.


    Member 1: ¡°I¡¯m so excited to be seeing everyone later in the month!¡±


    Member 2: ¡°Yeah, me too! I hope this season gets great ratings!¡±


    Jiang Laien also texted: ¡°We¡¯ve got this! I¡¯ve never participated in such a variety show before, I hope everyone can give me pointers when the time comes.¡±


    As soon as Jiang Laien appeared, everyone in the group immediately became lively, and the more expressive ones even began to flatter each other.


    After Jiang Laien stopped talking, the group chat regained its silence and its members went to sleep one by one.


    However, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t sleep at all and clicked on Jiang Laien¡¯s WeChat portrait.


    Because she wasn¡¯t friended, she couldn¡¯t see Jiang Laien¡¯s Moments1 and could only see her account information.


    Suddenly thinking of what Chen Lulu said, Ye Kehuan turned around again.


    Does she really not want to see Jiang Laien? If she truly doesn¡¯t want to see her, the solution is quite simple. Just move elsewhere. After all, she¡¯s not short of money.


    Besides, when she went to the kebab shop tonight, was really because she was angry at seeing Jiang Laien? Or was it because she was angry that she didn¡¯t know what Jiang Laien meant by reappearing in her world once more?


    Wasn¡¯t it because of what Jiang Laien¡¯s assistant said? Wasn¡¯t it because she felt like she was so expelled from Jiang Laien¡¯s world that she wasn¡¯t even worth being a dinner companion?


    She felt irritable inexplicably.


    Ye Kehuan clicked on the group again and clicked on Jiang Laien¡¯s portrait.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s profile picture was a kitten with small, blushing cheeks, round eyes, and a cute harmless look.


    Ye Kehuan felt an inexplicable urge to add her, but she didn¡¯t have a reason. She felt a little upset.


    She threw the phone aside, but decided to turn around and grab it to play on it again.


    As a result, she didn¡¯t pay attention and accidentally clicked on ¡°Add¡±. Almost immediately, and too fast for her to react, the friend request was accepted.


    Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s profile picture on her list and couldn¡¯t help but be confused.


    After thinking for a while, she clicked on her Moments page.


    You could say that Jiang Laien¡¯s Moments was a typical business Moments page. Basically, it¡¯s almost all work and shows very little of her daily personal life.


    For example, she would forward posts about movies that are about to be started, launched, or finished. She would also post endorsements.


    However, while flipping through it, Ye Kehuan suddenly saw that Jiang Laien posted a status last year: ¡°Our Ahuang is too old to walk now, I really want to go back with you to see it.¡±


    Under it, there was a picture of an old cat squatting in the corner with squinting eyes. When Ye Kehuan saw it, she fell silent.


    Ahuang was the stray kitten they rescued together at the time. Because their families didn¡¯t let them raise pets at home, they let their neighbors keep it.


    After exiting her Moments page, Ye Kehuan looked slightly dejected as she held the phone.


    Suddenly, her phone vibrated. There was a message on WeChat. Ye Kehuan raised her head again.


    It was Jiang Laien who sent her a message: ¡°Are you still awake?¡±


    Ye Kehuan paused for a moment and replied: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°You added me so late at night. Is there something wrong?¡±


    When Ye Kehuan saw her question, she felt a bit hot. After thinking for a while, she made up a reason: ¡°No, it¡¯s just that we¡¯re all doing a show together, so I¡¯m adding everyone¡¯s WeChats.¡±


    ¡°Jiang Laien is typing¡± prompted on the chat window, disappearing and appearing again. Finally, Jiang Laien asked: ¡°That¡¯s it?¡±


    Ye Kehuan sat on the bed, scratched her head, and pondered for a moment: ¡°Yeah.¡±


    Jiang Laien replied a second later: ¡°Okay, I see. It¡¯s not early now, so go to sleep soon. Good night.¡±


    Ye Kehuan stared at the phone screen calmly, eventually sending a ¡°good night¡± emoji.


    Finally, after sending the ¡°good night¡± emoji out, she arranged her soft pillow, laid down on her back, and closed her eyes. She doesn¡¯t want to think anymore.


    After a while, the notification tone rang again. Ye Kehuan lazily grabbed her phone, only to see the other person respond with ¡°Sleep with you?¡±


    Sleep? Ye Kehuan froze for a second and hurriedly flipped through the chat history.


    It turns out that she sent the wrong emoji. She originally wanted to send ¡°good night¡±, but the one she sent wasn¡¯t that one.


    On the emoji that she sent to Jiang Laien by mistake, a large line of text wrote: ¡°Frankly explain, since you¡¯re still chatting with me, do you want to sleep with me?¡±


    Moreover, the characters on this emoji pack flashes and changes color, enough to blind a person¡¯s eyes.


    A moment later, Ye Kehuan rubbed her eyes and rubbed her eyes again. She determined at the end that she had sent the wrong emoji.


    Ye Kehuan stared at the phone, instantly bouncing off the bed like a frightened bird, and started hurriedly typing to correct it, her face flushed with crimson: ¡°No, that was the wrong message just now, I actually wanted to post this¨C¡°


    While texting, Ye Kehuan quickly opened her favorite emojis list again, scrolling to the ¡°good night¡± emoji with trembling hands, and sent it.


    However, the moment she sent it, she really wanted to hack herself to death.


    That¡¯s right, she sent the wrong one again. This time, it was a panda with a wretched smile. The panda held a Durex in its hand, with two large lines of text beside it, reading: ¡°Sister, buy a condom? I got a dozen here!¡±


    Footnotes:


    1: On WeChat, ¡°Moments¡± is their English translation of ÅóÓÑȦ (Friends Circle).


    Translator¡¯s Corner:


    If I sent those emotes to someone I was awkward with like that I¡¯d simply pass away on the spot lmao

 CH 4

    In the end, Ye Kehuan sent a simple ¡°Goodnight¡±.


    She stared at the unchanging phone screen, thought for a while, then laid on her back, staring at the ceiling motionlessly.


    She couldn¡¯t sleep. Even with her phone off and eyes closed, she still just couldn¡¯t fall asleep. Once her eyes shut, random thoughts would involuntarily appear in her mind.


    For a moment, Ye Kehuan rolled over and opened her eyes again silently, staring at the calendar placed on the bedside table.


    Time really flies. She was twenty-five in a blink of an eye. Other people had already accomplished much at this age, but she only just got started.


    In fact, it was her childhood dream to be an actor. She loved to pose in front of a mirror to imitate the actions and speech of various characters.


    At the time, Jiang Laien would always cooperate with her performances and play-acted along with her. When Ye Kehuan played as Spongebob, Jiang Laien would play as Patrick; when Ye Kehuan played as Guo Jing, Jiang Laien would play as Huang Rong1.


    However, because they were too unprofessional then, the two novices would always laugh at the scenes and continued to work to improve.


    So, it could be said that becoming on an actor was a long-cherished wish that had been rooted in her blood since she was a child.


    Unfortunately, her family was never supportive of this dream and even adamantly opposed to her entering the circle, which stumbled her. She worked in her father¡¯s company for the past few years.


    It wasn¡¯t until last year that she resolutely gave up all the achievements she had worked for so far and decidedly entered the circle to pursue her dreams. After all, it wasn¡¯t too late, since if it really was, she really wouldn¡¯t be able to break into the market.


    However, after entering the circle, she became a peer of Jiang Laien¡¯s.


    Honestly, she never thought that Jiang Laien would be an actor with her past social difficulties.


    Thinking of the entertainment circle and thinking of Jian Laien, she inexplicably remembered many things¡­


    Ye Kehuan took the quilt and covered her head for a while then slowly breathed out a sigh.


    Maybe she had lied down for too long and was inattentive to her body before, but she suddenly felt a bit hungry.


    ¡­


    On the other side


    ¡­


    After Jian Laien finished filming a toothpaste advertisement, it was already past two o¡¯clock in the morning and everyone had started feeling sluggish.


    Even if advertisements were only a few minutes long, the process of making them was tormenting. Jiang Laien spent two hours just on styling and makeup, not to mention that the shooting process itself takes a while.


    This was only a small portion of Jiang Laien¡¯s work.


    After she finished filming, she changed back into her clothes, took her phone, and incomprehensibly opened the message interface for Ye Kehuan and looked at the emotes that Ye Kehuan had sent by mistake.


    Does Ye Kehuan often chat with others? Otherwise, how could she have collected so many messy emotes? She should be considered a master of messaging others, though it wasn¡¯t known who she often messages.


    However, at first glance, it seemed like it wasn¡¯t a serious way of chatting, and those emotes were really hopelessly ugly.


    So, did Ye Kehuan actually go to sleep just now, or did she just started talking with others after saying goodnight to her?


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien slowly let out a long sigh.


    Speaking of, the weather had been a bit strange today. It was hot enough to turn on the AC, but once it was on, it was too cold. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t tell how she was feeling, but she felt that this alternation between hot and cold was very uncomfortable. Her eyes were a bit read, her throat was a bit sore, and her nose was a bit itchy.


    ¡°Sister Laien,¡± The assistant Li Yingying walked over to Jiang Laien. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Your eyes are so red.¡±


    When she heard this, Jaing Laien looked at her with a small smile. ¡°Nothing. I probably have a cold.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s really easy to catch colds in this weather. Several of my friends caught them already, so you should really pay attention! I¡¯ll give you some of my hometown¡¯s magic cold remedy tomorrow.¡± Li Yingying smiled sweetly.


    ¡°Thank you,¡± Jiang Laien smiled and looked at her. ¡°But it¡¯s alright, there¡¯s no need. You should also pay attention to your own health and not catch a cold.¡±


    ¡°Mhm!¡± Yingying enthusiastically nodded.


    After a moment, Jaing Laien turned her head to look at her again, and said thoughtfully: ¡°If two people used to be good friends, but then turn their faces for some reason, do you think they could continue to be friends in the future?


    After a while, Jiang Laien turned his head to look at her again, thoughtfully: ¡°If two people used to be good friends, but then fell out for some reason, how likely is it for them to continue being friends in the future? If one of the friends were willing to be the bigger person and seek reconciliation?¡±


    ¡°I think¡­¡± Li Yingying raised her hand in the air and then slowly traced a finger down.


    ¡°100?¡± Jiang Laien said, confused.


    ¡°Zero.¡± Li Yingying said, drawing a complete circle.


    After hearing that, Jiang Laien felt that her head started hurting even more. She didn¡¯t know what she was thinking of, but she knew that she felt that her whole brain was about to explode.


    Li Yingying hurriedly took Jiang Laien¡¯s arm. ¡°Sister Laien, what¡¯s the matter? Do you have a fever?!¡±


    Jiang Laien shook her hand.


    ¡°Hey, it might not be so,¡± Yingying spoke again.


    ¡°Hmm?¡± Jiang Laien looked up.


    ¡°As the saying goes, you can¡¯t speak too fully2. For some people, the chance of making up after a big fight is zero, but for others, this might not necessarily be so, because after all, aren¡¯t most things like this? There are no two identical leaves in the world, and this is the same for people and even souls3!¡± Yingying suddenly transformed into a philosopher.


    After listening, Jiang Laien stared at a random spot listless and finally let out a long sigh.


    Ten minutes later, Jaing Laien left the studio, go into the nanny car, and had the driver take her back to the small villa.


    Ye Kehuan had just finished cooking a bowl of noodles in the kitchen.


    The noodles were steaming, as if a layer of mist had shrouded it. Covered with a fried egg, the dish looked perfectly delicious.


    ¡°I really am a chef.¡± After clapping her hands, Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows and finally sprinkled some chopped scallions on the noodles. She took the noodles, walked out of the kitchen, and went to the small dining area in the living room to start eating.


    Unexpectedly, just when she had put the noodles down, the door was pushed open.


    Jaing Laien appeared with very delicate makeup. Probably because it was quite late at night, Jiand Laien looked a bit tired, and her eyes seemed red.


    At once, the eyes of the two met, and they both stiffened. After stumbling for a moment, they both continued to do their own thing.


    Ye Kehuan sat down to eat the noodles while Jiang Laien bent over to change her shoes.


    They were quiet the entire process, each thinking their own thoughts. Ye Kehuan ate her noodles and tapped on her phone, staring hard enough to bore a hole in it; Jiang Laien sat on the sofa and flipped through her script a bit impatiently. The air seemed to be frozen.


    ¡°Are you just now having dinner?¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but take the initiative to ask a question after a while.


    Ye Kehuan listened while picking up a bunch of noodles. ¡°Well, I was hungry, so I got up to make a snack.¡±


    The fragrance of noodles was unbearable to Jiang Lain, who was naturally hungry after having a small dinner and had been working until now.


    So, at this moment, her stomach decided to growl.


    ¡°Hungry?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her head when she heard it and asked hesitantly.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Jiang Laien swallowed her saliva. She took the glass of water and gulped a large mouthful.


    Growl~ However, her stomach rumbled again.


    Seeing this, Ye Kehuan held up the chopsticks and asked, ¡°Did you not have enough for dinner?¡±


    Ye Kehuan probably didn¡¯t even realize that her words sounded a bit sour.


    ¡°Qi Li?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan continued to stare at her phone for a long time before nodding. ¡°Yeah.¡±


    Jiang Laien combed her fingers through her hair. ¡°I didn¡¯t ask her in the end.¡±


    Ye Kehuan froze for a second when she heard this and raised her eyes. She looked at her awkwardly: ¡°She had no time?¡±


    ¡°I didn¡¯t make the appointment,¡± Jiang Laien finished, then looked at her, thinking for a while before she spoke again. ¡°I wanted to ask if you wanted to go together to eat, but you left before I spoke, so I ended up eating only a bit of bread.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard this, her brain buzzed. It turned out to be so¡­ Ye Kehuan wanted to say something, but when Jiang Laien turned over another page of the script and looked at it seriously, she stopped herself.


    But after that, Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Laien take a few candies out from her bag and watched her frown and put it back in, seemingly unsatisfied.


    After two or three minutes passed, Ye Kehuan finished the noodles, cleaned up the tableware, and turned around to go into the kitchen. She poured out the noodle water in the pot, cleaned the residue, and began to scrub.


    When she finished washing, she suddenly remembered what Jiang Laien said, and when the rumbling of her stomach could be heard again, Ye Kehuan paused. After a while, she turned around again, looked in the direction where Jiang Laien was sitting, and lowered her eyes.


    At the moment, Jiang Laien was in the living room inattentively looking through her WeChat instead of the script and clicked on Ye Kehuan¡¯s Moments page.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s Moments page was quite interesting. It was completely filled with reposts of game content. It was full of things like ¡°please come help unlock this¡± or ¡°come and see the new themes!¡± There was basically nothing on it that had to do with her daily life.


    After looking for a while, Jiang Laien finally saw a rare post related to Ye Kehuan¡¯s life. The photo was of a bracelet woven with red rope with lucky beads strung on it.


    The caption reads: ¡°Sure enough, there are few things in this world that don¡¯t fade.¡±


    The post was sent out by Ye Kehuan a year before. Jiang Laien could help but bite down gently on her lower lip when she saw it. It was the bracelet that she herself had made and given to Ye Kehuan.


    She didn¡¯t expect that Ye Kehuan had kept it since. She thought she surely would have thrown it away by now.


    Raising her head, Jaing Laien rubbed her temples and pressed on the bridge of her nose, which was a little sore. She turned her head and looked to the side with a feeling of not being able to breathe.


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien reached out and pressed on her lower eyelids again, but at this moment, a slender white hand suddenly placed a bowl of noodles in front of her. The egg on top was fried to a beautiful golden yellow, and there was a small star of oil floating on top of the soup.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s gaze followed the arm and looked up, seeing Ye Kehuan put her hands in her pants pocket again, her expression a little awkward, as if she wanted to look at her but didn¡¯t dare. ¡°Here, I added your favorite fried egg.¡±

    I finished my summer classes! Sorry for the long wait, but I¡¯ll probably have a bit of time now before college starts again in the autumn. I didn¡¯t do a second read through for this chapter after correcting the MTL, so if you catch any mistakes or odd phrasing, just leave a comment and I¡¯ll get that fixed.

 CH 5

    Jiang Laien glanced at the steaming bowl of noodles in front of her and said softly, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°No need ¡­¡± Ye Kehuan caught the look. ¡°It¡¯s just a bowl of noodles. Go ahead and have a taste, you don¡¯t need to be polite.¡±


    When she heard this, Jiang Laien picked up her chopsticks and took a small bite of the egg.


    It tasted the same as before, only more fragrant.


    This unconsciously drew up memories of Jiang Laien¡¯s life back in junior high. Because her family was often away from home, she often did everything she could to get Ye Kehuan to come over and play with her.


    She pretended to be tired of eating takeaway and pretended to not know how to cook, because only like this would Ye Kehuan be standing in her kitchen, wearing an apron to cook for her like an exclusive chef. These were the opportunities that gave them more contact.


    She loved to eat the things Ye Kehuan made, loved to watch Ye Kehuan¡¯s figure as she cooked, and loved to play games with Ye Kehuan after the meal.


    She was actually quite good at playing games, despite not playing it often and not being very good at it. She often deliberately lost to Ye Kehuan because she loved to watch Ye Kehuan cheer whenever she won.


    Those were her most cherished times.


    While thinking of this, Jiang Laien felt her eyes being enveloped by the steam emanating from the soup.


    Jiang Laien opened her vermillion lips slightly a beat later. ¡°Delicious¡­¡±


    ¡°If you think it¡¯s delicious, then have some more,¡± Ye Kehuan toyed with the small pendant on her phone case, her eyes never falling on Jiang Laien. ¡°Enjoy your meal. I¡¯ll go back to my room first.¡±


    However, as soon as she walked up the stairs, she heard Jiang Laien calling from behind: ¡°Ye Kehuan.¡±


    Ye Kehuan froze instantly and stood still, but Jiang Laien didn¡¯t continue.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Kehuan turned around and looked down after a moment.


    As she held the chopsticks, Jiang Laien felt that there were too many things swirling around her head that she wanted to ask, but she didn¡¯t know where to start. In the end, she simply asked, ¡°Do you¡­not want to see me?¡±


    She¡¯d always felt that they needed to sit down and have a good talk.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s back stiffened.


    She tilted her head slightly. ¡°Why are you suddenly asking this?¡±


    Jiang Laien tucked some stray strands of hair behind her ears and whispered softly, ¡°I noticed during the meeting today.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan looked up.


    ¡°When the director said that he arranged for us to be grouped together. You had quite the awkward expression on.¡± Jiang Laien squeezed her chopsticks and finally said the thing she¡¯d held back.


    When Ye Kehuan heard her words, she felt as if she¡¯d stabbed a sore wound and couldn¡¯t breathe. She couldn¡¯t help but to purse her lips tightly, lowering her to fiddle with the pendant on her phone again.


    Past scenes appeared all at once in her head. They were a tower of heavy boulders weighing down, suffocating her.


    She squeezed her phone and stared at the ceiling for a long while. Her lips stretched into a wry smile. ¡°What should I say?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her. ¡°Say whatever you want to¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help it any longer. She twisted around to look at her. ¡°Alright then. I want to ask: why did you do that back then? Were you dissatisfied with me? If you were, what could have changed to satisfy you1?¡±


    Ye Kehuan wore a smile, but the corners of her lips were raised in an odd way, making her expression look unnatural.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Jiang Laien choked on her words briefly, not knowing where to start.


    ¡°In all my life, I¡¯d never treated someone as well as I did to you. I¡¯d always put you first, but you¡¯d suddenly changed, first alienating me, then transferring schools. What am I to you? A virus? A plague? Something that you feared so much that you¡¯d avoid?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her calmly and raised a finger to point at her chest while she spoke.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s pupils tightened. What should she say? It was impossible to tell her that she¡¯d liked her at the time, and because she¡¯d started to fall in love, she got jealous and began to slowly distance herself, right?


    If she said this, and Ye Kehuan was straight, and perhaps even homophobic, wouldn¡¯t that just create a bigger barrier?


    ¡°I¡­¡± Faced with Ye Kehuan¡¯s questions, Jiang Laien was overcome with anxiety and could not explain herself. Suddenly, everything became a mess.


    ¡°So, how should I satisfy you2?¡± Ye Kehuan continued to ask, grinning.


    ¡°No, I¡ªI was¡­¡± Jiang Laien pressed down tightly on her lower lip, not knowing what to say.


    ¡°Since you didn¡¯t want to mind me then, go ahead and continue now. Continue ignoring me. What point is there asking these questions now¡­¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her, her voice slowly getting lower as she spoke.


    The atmosphere between the two became tense.


    Jiang Laien froze. She felt as if her heart had been pierced with a sharp steel needle. A fine layer of mist gradually appeared in her eyes, and she hurriedly raised her hand to brush a strand of hair behind her ear, turning away her head. Her nose also became a bit blocked soon after.


    ¡°Yeah. I understand what you mean.¡± A long while later, Jiang Laien nodded.


    It was Ye Kehuan¡¯s turn to freeze now. She didn¡¯t know what had just happened; her emotions seemed to fluctuate far too much just now, and her agitation should have scared her.


    Slowly letting go of her arm, Ye Kehuan looked at her, not knowing what to do. ¡°I just¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s throat was stuck again halfway through her words, and she was unable to say another word.


    Jiang Laien immediately grabbed a large potion of the noodles and stuffed it in her  mouth violently.


    Looking at Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan pursed her lips tightly. After some time, she said, ¡°Um, the noodles are a bit clumped.¡±


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter¡­¡± Jiang Laien bit the noodles and swallowed hard. There were still tears on her eyelashes, and the tip of her nose was red. ¡°There were still some teardrops on his eyelashes, and the tip of his nose was red. ¡°I love eating them.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded and raised her hand to brush her nose, her eyes moving with the chopsticks in Jiang Laien¡¯s slender fingers. ¡°Okay.¡±


    ¡°Do you have anything scheduled tomorrow?¡± When Jiang Laien felt Ye Kehuan still standing there after a while, she turned her head slightly to ask. Her voice was soft and a little mute.


    ¡°Oh¡­yes, there is a scene to be filmed tomorrow at ¡õ¡õo¡¯clock. I play a vicious female supporting role. It¡¯s almost finished.¡± Ye Kehuan touched the back of her head. (TN: those boxes aren¡¯t a formatting error)


    ¡°Then shouldn¡¯t you go to sleep?¡± Jiang Laien squeezed her chopsticks tightly. ¡°Otherwise, you won¡¯t have energy tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°Well, I¡¯ll go sleep now.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, moving her feet slightly.


    However, just when Ye Kehuan was about to turn and leave, she heard Jiang Laien cough violently behind her, so she turned to look back.


    Ye Kehuan picked up a glass of water and put it in front of Jiang Laien. ¡°Um, eat slowly, don¡¯t choke.¡±


    After saying that, she went upstairs.


    Jiang Laien glanced at her back, coughed twice, and picked out a piece of lettuce from her noodles and stuffed it into her mouth. She chewed twice, then put down her chopsticks. She raised her hand to cover her mouth, chewing while sobbing silently at the same time.


    Ye Kehuan returned to her room, quickly washed up, put her hands on the sink, and slowly closed her eyes.


    A few moments later, Ye Kehuan walked out of the bathroom, stood by the window, and raised her hands to poke open the blinds to lean over and look out. It was silent outside with the occasional security guard patrolling.


    Clenching her fist, Ye Kehuan gently smashed it against her forehead, feeling lost with her thoughts.


    The sound of footsteps and sniffing came from outside the bedroom door interrupted the silence, but it soon resumed. Ye Kehuan put down the blinds and looked over.


    She turned around and walked towards the door.


    After finishing her noodles, Jiang Laien returned to her bedroom. Just as she was about to make the bed, she found that the bed in her room was empty, save for a Simmons mattress.


    And the luggage she brought today was filled only with clothes, cosmetics, and toiletries.


    She had completely forgotten about the bedding. She didn¡¯t bring any over and she didn¡¯t buy it when she moved today, so she had nothing.


    Jiang Laien breathed a sigh. She sat on the bare bed while frowning, recalling what Ye Kehuan had just said. Her nose wouldn¡¯t stop feeling sour. She didn¡¯t even know what she was doing now.


    Throwing a piece of clothing on the bed, Jiang Laien lowered her head and buried her face in her hands. Not long after, warm, slippery tears leaked from every finger.


    Just then, a sudden noise sounded from outside her room. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but shake her shoulders. She immediately looked over and saw Ye Kehuan leaning against the doorframe.


    So, Jiang Laien hurriedly wiped away the tears with the back of her hand. ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Ye Kehuan slowly straightened from the leaning posture. ¡°Nothing, I just don¡¯t think you don¡¯t look too well, so I was a little worried. Are you crying?¡±


    ¡°No, I just caught a cold.¡± Jiang Laien immediately shook her head and continued to fold the messy pile of clothes in front of her. ¡°The weather has been weird recently, and I sneezed several times when I was shooting.


    ¡°Then did you go see?3¡± Ye Kehuan asked after a while.


    ¡°I just came back. There wasn¡¯t time to go.¡± Jiang Laien said. God was with her, letting her catch a cold so she could also cover up how she was crying like this.


    ¡°Then do you have medicine or anything?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t speak this time and just shook her head.


    ¡°It¡¯s late and your bed hasn¡¯t been made yet.¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head to look at the bedroom.


    ¡°I forgot to ask someone to arrange it. ¡°Jiang Laien lowered her head, folded a shirt, and put it next to her.


    ¡°Then how will you sleep tonight?¡± Ye Kehuan walked over as she spoke.


    Jiang Laien wiped her tears again, shook her head and said nothing.


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh. She raised her hand to rub her neck and said: ¡°Then, go to my room and sleep tonight.¡±


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t speak but put the folded pile of clothes aside. She raised her hand and covered her eyes.


    Ye Kehuan sighed again. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t you hate me¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice trembled slightly. ¡°If you let me go to your room, wouldn¡¯t you panic?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked up and closed her eyes. ¡°I just¡­I really just don¡¯t understand why you suddenly alienated me then¡­¡±


    ¡°Because I was jealous of you and Du Mingan being in that damn relationship!¡± Jiang Laien yelled, finally unable to hold it back any longer.

    2: That¡¯s not exactly what she said¡­ but I couldn¡¯t help it¡­ Literal translation: ¡°So, what exactly is it that I need to do to satisfy you?¡±


    3: The doctor. She was wondering if Jiang Laien went to see the doctor after she caught a cold.

 CH 6

    Ye Kehuan¡¯s brain seemed to be buzzing when she heard Jiang Laien yell that sentence.


    After a long period of confusion, Ye Kehuan slowly said, ¡°Jealous?¡±


    ¡°Yes, jealous.¡± When Jiang Laien said this, her nose suddenly became a bit blocked, and she looked quite embarrassed now.


    When Ye Kehuan heard this, a lot of things--various possibilities--flashed through her mind. Then, after a while, she said a little dazedly: ¡°What do you mean¡­¡±


    ¡°What else could I mean?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her sideways, trying to control her emotions.


    ¡°Is it because you liked him? So, watching me fall in love with him, you just¡­¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head slightly.


    ¡°Forget it, I¡¯m too lazy to tell you.¡± When Jiang Laien heard this, she shook her head, grimaced again, and continued to tidy up the things at hand.


    ¡°So, just because of this, you tore all face with me?¡± Ye Kehuan grabbed her arm again, her eyes a little red. ¡°Was it just for him?¡±


    ¡°What was it for him, am I such a person in your heart?¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien suddenly threw Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand away.


    ¡°That¡­¡±


    ¡°To tell you clearly, I have no interest in him for half a penny!¡± Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan sternly, torn between crying and laughing. ¡°Ye Kehuan, I am not that kind of person.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Ye Kehuan lowered her head. ¡°Then, what was it¡­¡±


    At this time, Jiang Laien sniffled and licked her lower lip. ¡°It was because of you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, staring at her with eyes wide open in disbelief.


    ¡°My heart is small; I am too possessive of you. I think you should be mine alone, so I thought he snatched you, snatched my friend¡­¡± Jiang Laien squeezed her arm with a slightly trembling hand. What she said was only half-truths, to see how Ye Kehuan understood it. Would she think of it as the jealousy of a friend or something else¡­


    She liked everything about Ye Kehuan. Whatever Ye Kehuan likes to eat, she pretends to like to eat. Ye Kehuan likes to play video games, and though she doesn¡¯t actually like playing them, she can pretend in order to stay with Ye Kehuan for longer. After a while, she also started to accompany Ye Kehuan to and from the arcade non-stop. Ye Kehuan liked acting, so she also began to wonder how to act.


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned. For a moment, she was a bit speechless.


    ¡°Believe it or not, in short, that was the reason.¡± Jiang Laien continued.


    ¡°So¡­¡± Ye Kehuan rubbed her temples for a while. ¡°Are you stupid?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked up at her, shook her head slowly, and then a fear fell from the corner of her eye.


    ¡°Even if I¡¯m in love, so what?¡± Ye Kehuan still stared at her firmly. ¡°Don¡¯t you know that I care more about you than love?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked into her eyes for a while, but didn¡¯t know how to answer. No, it¡¯s different. The problem was that she didn¡¯t treat Ye Kehuan as a normal friend. Therefore, even if Ye Kehuan cared about her more, Ye Kehuan will still be someone else¡¯s.


    ¡°Don¡¯t say any more, I have work tomorrow. I have to rest.¡± Jiang Laien wiped her tears again.


    So, Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief and looked down at the time: ¡°It¡¯s quite late now. Let¡¯s go to my room. It¡¯s time to take a shower and lie down to sleep.¡±


    Jiang Laien clutched a piece of clothing in her hands, and finally nodded.


    ¡°Then, let¡¯s go.¡± Ye Kehuan turned and walked towards the door as she spoke.


    ¡°Wait, I¡¯m looking for my pajamas.¡± Jiang Laien said, pulling out a set of pajamas from a large mess of clothes, then stood up and walked towards Ye Kehuan.


    Probably because Ye Kehuan walked too fast, Jiang Laien was following quite quickly. Therefore, when she stopped at the door, Jiang Laien suddenly stumbled.


    At that moment, she leaned forward and saw that she was about to hit Ye Kehuan, so she grabbed the door frame tightly to stabilize herself. Opening her eyes wide, Jiang Laien watched Ye Kehuan¡¯s black hair flowing down her back, and curled up her fingers unconsciously.


    When Ye Kehuan heard the movement, she turned around and looked at Jiang Laien, whose eyes were full of mist for a while, and finally let out a sigh of relief: ¡°You¡­ Be careful.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then hugged her clothes and walked into the room next to her with her head hanging down.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s room was quite big, with a bed and a sofa inside. The decoration is more Nordic, minimalist, not too exaggerated, and the color tones were mostly white and blue.


    Whether it was the bed or sofa, they all looked very fluffy and soft. They were the type where you could predict how comfortable they would be when lying on them at a glance.


    After Jiang Laien entered, Ye Kehuan set the air conditioner, and pointed to the bathroom: ¡°You should take a shower first. Move faster, so you can sleep longer.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Jiang Laien at this time was completely different from the lonely and beautiful person in front of the audience. She looked really embarrassed.


    ¡°By the way, I forgot to remove my makeup.¡± Jiang Laien eventually spoke again.


    ¡°I have makeup remover wipes,¡± Ye Kehuan said, and opened her dressing table. She took out a pack of makeup remover wipes from inside and handed it to her. ¡°Here.¡±


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Jiang Laien took the pack and walked towards the bathroom.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the bathroom door being closed, listened to the sound of washing water coming from inside, tilted her head, and then opened a drawer under the TV cabinet to take out a few boxes of medicine from it, and squatted there to look over again.


    After a while, the sound of the shower rang from the bathroom, so Ye Kehuan took the pill box and glanced over before walking to the side sofa and sitting down.


    Thinking back to Jiang Laien crying just then, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and rubbed her nose, then put down the medicine box, and suddenly said to herself: ¡°I wouldn¡¯t give a single fart for that sand sculpture love. It didn¡¯t mean anything, but turned Laien into¡­¡±


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan shook her head and got up, poured a glass of water, and tested the water temperature.


    After more than ten minutes, Jiang Laien finally walked out of the bathroom wearing a long t-shirt. Her nose was still red, and she was coughing from time to time.


    Ye Kehuan looked up at her, then stood up and walked towards her: ¡°Do you feel uncomfortable in any way?¡±


    ¡°No¡­¡± However, as soon as Jiang Laien finished speaking, she couldn¡¯t help but sneeze quietly.


    When Ye Kehuan saw this, she tilted her head and looked at her: ¡°Are you sure?¡±


    ¡°Not sure¡­¡± Jiang Laien pursed her lips and pointed at her nose: ¡°My nose is itchy.¡±


    ¡°Hey¡­ Let me see if you have a fever.¡± After Ye Kehuan let out a sigh, she slowly stroked her hand across her forehead. After a moment of probing, her eyebrows gradually furrowed.


    Feeling the head from the palm of her hand, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but raise her eyes and look at her again. Under such close observation, she found that Ye Kehuan¡¯s face was really perfect.


    Her skin was smooth and clean, her eyelashes were thick and upturned, and the edges and corners of her eyes were sharp but not too serious. She really was cool, just like Jiang Laien remembered. It was just that Ye Kehuan now had a more free and easy temperament about her.


    ¡°Your forehead is a little hot, is your throat sore?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    Perhaps because of being too close, Ye Kehuan¡¯s words resonated in her chest cavity. In addition, her voice was low and sounded somewhat hypnotic, which made Jiang Laien not dare to talk directly to her.


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°Somewhat.¡±


    ¡°Then, what about your head? Are you dizzy?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    Jiang Laien nodded again. ¡°A bit of that too.¡±


    ¡°Well,¡± Ye Kehuan looked up at her, ¡°just like I thought.¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan took back her hands, opened the two boxes of medicine, took out a pair of pills, and looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Why do you keep looking at me?¡±


    Jiang Laien lowered her head: ¡°I only look at you to feel better.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan heard that, her ears became a little hot, so she changed the topic: ¡°I¡­ Hurry up and take the medicine.¡±


    Listening, Jiang Laien immediately spread the palm of her right hand.


    ¡°The white one might be a bit bitter. Don¡¯t chew it. Just put water in your mouth.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she passed her a glass of water.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then put the medicine into her mouth, and her brow tightened instantly.


    ¡°Okay, go to bed, otherwise you will be in trouble if you miss work tomorrow.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she tore the blankets off the bed.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, and then lay down on the bed.


    When Ye Kehuan pulled the blankets up, when the fresh smell was covered up, when Ye Kehuan¡¯s arm swayed above her head, Jiang Laien suddenly had an illusion that she had gone back to the past.


    They used to read comic books, novels, and other things together in bed. Or else it was a TV series, and then when they were sleepy, they would hug each other to sleep.


    She didn¡¯t know when it happened. Once, when Jiang Laien woke up in a daze, she saw Ye Kehuan lying next to her, and her heart throbbed, and then¡­ She made a very bold decision and touched her lips.


    The girl¡¯s lips were like cotton candy and felt incredible. After that, whenever she saw Ye Kehuan again, something would suddenly confuse her heart. She had no way to suppress it at all.


    ¡°Then I will turn off the lights.¡± At this moment, Ye Kehuan spoke again.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded gently.


    So Ye Kehuan turned off the light, and the whole room sank into a thick silence, so quiet that she could only hear the other people¡¯s breathing. They used to lie down close together like this; lying down and chatting about everything in the world, and they were so happy until the sleepiness struck.


    But later, such days were long gone.


    Closing her eyes, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know how long it took before she fell asleep. But at three or four o¡¯clock in the morning, she woke up again. After going to the bathroom and returning, Ye Kehuan just sat on the bed when her wrist was grabbed by a hand.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and saw Jiang Laien pulling her with furrowed eyebrows: ¡°Don¡¯t go, don¡¯t hate me¡­¡±


    Hearing those words, Ye Kehuan felt a little lost for a moment. Did Jiang Laien dream of something? Or else¡­ Why would she say such a sentence?


    Under the night light beside the bed, Jiang Laien¡¯s sleep looked very beautiful. Ye Kehuan stared at it and fell into a daze. Lowering her eyes, she said, ¡°What are you talking about¡­¡±


    Thinking of what Jiang Laien said earlier, Ye Kehuan lowered her head again.


    After a long while, Ye Kehuan lay on her side and tucked the quilt in for her, then stretched out her hand and gently fiddled with the hair around Jiang Laien¡¯s ears. She arranged it for her and put it behind her ears, and then gently moved her fingers from her cheeks. After removing them, she lay down next to her again.


    At three or four in the morning, unknowingly, there was a pattering sound from outside the window from a bit of rain. Because of it, the air in the house seemed to have become a little humid.


    Inadvertently, there was a chill in Jiang Laien¡¯s feet, and she couldn¡¯t help but flex her toes and curl her feet up into the bed.


    Ye Kehuan, who hadn¡¯t been asleep at all, noticed it and was about to change the air-conditioning mode and put the quilt on Jiang Laien, but Jiang Laien suddenly stretched out her arm and wrapped it around her waist, making her unable to move.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was suddenly speechless, her whole body stiff, afraid to make any movements.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan turned her head slightly again: ¡°Asleep?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien replied in a daze, then rubbed her head against her back like a kitten.


    On this supposedly cold night, Ye Kehuan felt that it was getting hotter and hotter.


    The author has something to say: continue at 8 o¡¯clock tomorrow night~

 CH 7

    The rain outside the window was still falling endlessly, as if planning to renovate the land anew.


    However, Ye Kehuan was sweating a lot.


    Inexplicably, she felt like she was a bit perverted.


    In the end Ye Kehuan was so scared that she pushed Jiang Laien¡¯s arm away.


    At this time, Jiang Laien gently rolled her lower body, opened her lips slightly, and went back to sleep. Ye Kehuan sat up and looked at her for a while before eventually closing her eyes. She then picked up her phone and started playing games with headphones on.


    Tonight I don¡¯t think I¡¯ll fall asleep.


    After that, when she finished playing games, the sun was rising at seven o¡¯clock. So, Ye Kehuan went to wash quietly and then wandered to the kitchen.


    It was impossible to go back to bed then anyway, and it was too early to go to filming, so it was better to make breakfast.


    When she walked into the kitchen, she opened the huge three-door refrigerator. After Ye Kehuan swept her eyes around, she finally took out a carton of milk, a bag of bacon, some broccoli, and a few eggs.


    After closing the refrigerator door and bringing the ingredients to the counter, Ye Kehuan turned around and saw Jiang Laien walking over, stretching her waist.


    ¡°Good morning.¡± Jiang Laien smiled sweetly after stretching.


    For a moment, Ye Kehuan was a little dazed, remembering the strange thoughts that came to her mind when she was hugged last night. Ye Kehuan was a little uncomfortable so she opted to just nod awkwardly.


    ¡°Breakfast¡­¡± Jiang Laien continued to smile. It looks very nutritious.¡±


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, put the ingredients aside, and looked at her again. ¡°Remember to buy bedding today.¡±


    Jiang Laien was stunned after listening to Ye Kehuan¡¯s awkward words early in the morning.


    So, were all those gentle and considerate things last night an illusion? It seems like Ye Kehuan really doesn¡¯t want to take care of me.


    ¡°Thank you for your reminder.¡± Finally, Jiang Laien raised the corner of her lips and left the kitchen, returning to her room. She closed the door and leaned back against it, letting out a long sigh.


    Yes, Yingying is right. Even if you are very good friends, your relationship will fade if you haven¡¯t seen each other for a long time, let alone had a falling out.


    Although Ye Kehuan not only cooked noodles for her, but also found medicine for her and let her sleep in her bed, it was all just polite behavior.


    Maybe she really just wants to leave me alone. So, should I keep to myself and stay away from her? Bother her less? I deserve this, so maybe I shouldn¡¯t bother her anymore, or ask for forgiveness¡­


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien took another deep breath, and after washing, she changed into her day clothes and went out.


    After Ye Kehuan made breakfast and brought it to the living room, she realized that Jiang Laien had already left.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t think much about it, and after eating, she packed up and rushed to the studio.


    After a full week of leaving early and returning late, in the blink of an eye the filming of Ye Kehuan¡¯s role in the drama finally came to an end.


    On the last day, after Ye Kehuan got to the set, she put on makeup and got styled and waited for a long time before shooting. Because the director always shot other people¡¯s scenes first.


    The role she played could only be described as stupid and evil. In the end, she wanted to harm the heroine but instead ended up harming herself. She accidentally fell down the stairs and fell to her death.


    After the cameras and actors were all ready, at the director¡¯s order, everyone began to shoot nervously.


    In the blink of an eye, her role was finished. But when it was done, it was done. No one would come up to high-five or congratulate her, just like no one would come up to say words of praise.


    After Ye Kehuan changed her clothes, she turned and went to the bathroom. Just when she was about to come out from inside, she heard someone talking about her outside.


    ¡°Ye Kehuan should have squeezed into the show after stuffing money into someone¡¯s pockets and walking through the back door, right?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s disgusting, but how could she have so much money?¡±


    ¡°Heh, I heard that she slept with the head of the company, otherwise why would anyone be willing to spend money to hire her?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. But if she goes on that show, she will definitely be scolded to death, hahaha. You can clearly see her ten fingers have never held a knife in her life. She probably couldn¡¯t cut a scallion, let alone cook one.¡±


    ¡­


    Although the speaking voices of those people had been deliberately lowered, Ye Kehuan could still hear them. In the end, Ye Kehuan put her hands in her trouser pockets, raised her head,and snorted coldly.


    She wanted to see if she would really be scolded to death.


    After a while, Ye Kehuant went out, walked to the dressing table, and began to pack up her belongings with her assistant.


    Sitting next to her was Cheng Yan, who played the heroine.


    It can be said that Cheng Yan¡¯s pageantry when filming was completely different from her¡¯s.


    Ye Kehuan had a single assistant, while Cheng Yan had five or six assistants. Everyone had their own duties. Makeup artists, stylists and so on were also around her, constantly looking for topics to discuss with her.


    After all, Cheng Yan was decked out in a full set of luxury products when she debuted, and she was found to be living in a super luxurious mansion. She was a proper rich white beauty1. Who wouldn¡¯t want to pander to her?


    Even in the eyes of the general public, if someone was spreading gossip or rumors about Cheng Yan, everyone would think that that person was reversing black and white. After all, Cheng Yan is white and rich, so how could she need to steal someone else¡¯s role?


    Cheng Yan chatted with those people, talking about whether she should rob the scene or not. Everyone said that those who were unable to outshine and stumbled behind others were just trash.


    Those words seemed to have been deliberately said for Ye Kehuan to hear.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t respond either and just continued to pack her things.


    However, Cheng Yan suddenly laughed and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°What does Kehuan think, are we right?¡±


    At this time, those people also turned their heads, looking at them both with gossipy expressions.


    Ye Kehuan stopped, lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s really meaningless to rob a scene then flop. If you have the ability, you should use your own ability to fish for work. Going behind this or that¡­¡±


    When Ye Kehuan said this, she stared straight into Cheng Yan¡¯s eyes: ¡°It¡¯s really low.¡±


    Cheng Yan swallowed deeply, a little unable to sit still, feeling as if she was being ridiculed. Was she being ridiculed?!


    Next, Ye Kehuan put a backpack on her shoulders: ¡°I¡¯m done with the film; I¡¯m going now.¡±


    ¡°Well, if there¡¯s a chance, let¡¯s cooperate again.¡± Although Cheng Yan had scolded Ye Kehuan thousands of times in her heart, she still smiled harmlessly. After all, she had a public image to maintain.


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening. ¡°Of course, that¡¯s fine. Looking forward to it.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan turned and left.


    Cheng Yan glared at her back with eyes like knives, wishing she could cut a piece of meat from her.


    Yes, Cheng Yan and Ye Kehuan had a history.


    The two of them actually debuted at the same time. The one who didn¡¯t work for a big company, Ye Kehuan, just entered a small workshop. Meanwhile, Cheng Yan had good resources. One of them became popular, and remained popular. Whenever she wanted to scold Ye Kehuan, she would just open her homepage and look at all the fake rumors, so the string between them had long been cut.


    Originally, there was no intersection between Cheng Yan and Ye Kehuan, but since something happened later, the two came at odds.


    The cause was that variety show, ¡°The Food is Ready¡±.


    Originally, Ye Kehuan was not invited to participate. The program team decided on Cheng Yan. Only later, the program team probably thought that Cheng Yan looked too gentle, and the structure of the whole program was lacking in strong conflicts, so they replaced her with Ye Kehuan.


    After that, a weird atmosphere arose between Ye Kehuan and Cheng Yan.


    When on the crew, Cheng Yan and Ye Kehuan were like yin and yang when they spoke, and she even posted on Weibo, ¡°Regret is also a kind of beauty, and sometimes learning to leave opportunities to those in need is also a kind of happiness.¡± Such ambiguous words.


    As soon as that post was made, the majority of netizens immediately  turned into Holmes, and began investigating what she was saying. Afterwards, the netizens all thought that Ye Kehuan must have stuffed money into the back door of the program group of ¡°The Food is Ready¡± and took away Cheng Yan¡¯s chance to participate on the show. That was Cheng Yan¡¯s intention in sending out such a feeling.


    Just like that, Ye Kehuan was attacked again and again to the point that it was inexhaustible, saying that she was the rarest and most disgusting person in the entertainment industry in a century.


    In the face of those detractors, the program group did not say anything. After all, it was a good thing that they could get so much heat without spending money on marketing.


    After leaving the crew and getting into the car, Ye Kehuan looked down at her phone and realized that half an hour ago, her mother sent her countless messages: ¡°Darling, are you done? Mom is shopping today. X Street. By the way, I saw some people getting out of a car. Would you like to buy another car? This Lamborghini suits you well, and it¡¯s only nine million2¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes widened before replying, ¡°I don¡¯t want it.¡± She then clicked on Jiang Laien¡¯s WeChat chat box.


    After that night, because Jiang Laien had been working in the neighboring city, she was the only one left in the villa. They also didn¡¯t use the app to chat or anything, lying in each other¡¯s lists like corpses.


    But now, because the reality show was about to be filmed, Jiang Laien would return. Then she saw that just half an hour ago, Jiang Laien posted a Weibo: ¡°Thank you for all your birthday wishes from my heart~¡±


    In addition, Jiang Laien also posted on her friend circle: ¡°I¡¯m hungry, but there is still a traffic jam on the highway.¡±


    Ye Kehuan silently read the message she sent several times, then raised her hand to cover her forehead and squeezed her phone tightly.


    Later, while passing by a cake shop, Ye Kehuan raised her eyes and looked over to it. Looking at the cakes inside that looked dreamlike under the light, she only felt something was wrong in her head.


    Speaking of which, today is Jiang Laien¡¯s birthday. I should buy one for her¡­


    However, Ye Kehuan dropped her head again when she thought of the fact that there had been no contact between them for so many days, and the relationship between them still hadn¡¯t improved.


    Suddenly, it occurred to her that Jiang Laien likes to eat the layer of cream on the cake the most.


    Back then, every time she passed by a cake shop, Ye Kehuan would buy a cake, then give her the cream, and eat the inside herself. Every time Jiang Laien would eat she turned into the Cheshire cat.


    Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but curl the corners of her lips slightly and smile.


    After a long sigh, Ye Kehuan finally got out of the car, opened the door of the cake shop, and walked in.


    The cake shop displays were a dazzling array of cakes, all of which looked very delicious. When thinking of Jiang Laien¡¯s bright eyes while she dug for strawberries to eat, Ye Kehuan squatted down again and pointed for the clerk at a strawberry cake. ¡°Just this--wrap it up.¡±


    ¡°Okay, do you need anything else?¡± The clerk asked politely.


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she replied: ¡°A candle.¡±


    A moment later, Ye Kehuan came out with a mini cake in her hand. Half an hour later, there was a pile of vegetables in her hand, almost all the ones she and Jiang Laien liked to eat.


    Two and a half hours later, in the villa, Ye Kehuan made a table of dishes. She looked at the dishes on the table for a while, and then looked out.


    Why haven¡¯t you come back?


    ¡°What am I doing? Maybe she¡¯s already eaten. Hasn¡¯t she? Besides, she may not be willing to eat what I made¡­Just put it away¡­¡± Ye Kehuan thought for a while, and put her hands on the table.


    At this moment, the gate outside the villa opened. At the same time, Jiang Laien¡¯s car also drove in. The headlights illuminated the room, draining the color from Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes.


    Ye Kehuan was suddenly confused¡­ To hide it or not?


    TL/N


    1 - Having light skin has always been highly prioritized among Chinese women. Lighter skin means you come from a richer family, and therefore spend less time working in the sun. When the author describes a woman as white, that implies she is beautiful.


    2 - Assuming this is set in the real world, 1 USD is between 6.50 to 7 Yuan. Foreign cars also have a large import tariff in China, driving up the price. Because of this, rich families prefer to buy imported cars so they can flaunt their wealth.

 CH 8

    Before Jiang Laien opened the door, she hurriedly picked up the cake, slammed it back in its box, and moved it and the second set of tableware into the kitchen before coming out again.


    But when she reached over to serve herself a plate of steamed prawns, Jiang Laien had already opened the door and walked in.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s makeup that day was as exquisite and beautiful as ever, and she was wearing a light gray skirt with a waistband of soft cloth. The whole ensemble made it look like she had just come from a small banquet.


    Seeing that someone had come in, Ye Kehuan, who had planned to continue withdrawing, had her mind go blank, so she sat down at the table and picked up the silverware.


    After Jiang Laien came in, she saw a large table of vegetables in front of Ye Kehuan. She was shocked and could help but wonder to herself: Did she cook it for me? After all, today is my birthday.


    Taking a closer look, she saw a plate of steamed garlic prawns, a bowl of winter melon meatball soup, a plate of boiled cabbage hearts, and a plate of pickled and shredded beef on the table.


    Every dish looked extremely delicious and appetizingly presented. A lot of work must have gone into them.


    Although Ye Kehuan¡¯s chopsticks were in her hand, there was nothing on her dish yet.


    ¡°Back?¡± In the end, when Jiang Laien walked over, Ye Kehuan took the initiative to ask.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan also nodded.


    ¡°Why did you cook so many dishes?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien walked to the table and asked.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second, biting the tip of her chopsticks, and replied: ¡°Because¡­ I wanted to try a bit of everything, so I made so many inadvertently.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, she suddenly felt she was really a bit ridiculous.


    I suddenly felt that someone would only cook so many dishes because they remember that today is my birthday and they wanted to surprise me. What part of me is worth so much trouble?


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien could help but smile awkwardly and look to the side. ¡°It seems you have a good appetite--eat more.¡±


    After listening to her, Ye Kehuan coughed again, and then asked, ¡°Have you had dinner?¡±


    Jiang Laien grabbed a big suitcase and moved it up the stairs with force. ¡°I have eaten.¡±


    After speaking, Jiang Laien continued to bow her head and carry up her suitcase. She didn¡¯t know if God was against her or something, but the wheels at the bottom of the suitcase caught on every edge and corner of the steps, making ugly sounds. Jiang Laien¡¯s eyebrows furrowed without her even realizing.


    Ye Kehuan held her chopsticks and stared at her for a while before finally putting down the chopsticks and walking over. She took the suitcase and said, ¡°I¡¯ll help you get this.¡±


    ¡°No need¡­¡± Jiang Laien stroked her hair, ¡°Just eat your food. I¡¯m not that weak.¡±


    ¡°If you are not that weak, then why are you still stuck here¡­¡± Ye Kehuan answered.


    However, Jiang Laien stubbornly took the suitcase from her hand, and then stubbornly supported herself on the handrails and walked upwards with crooked and heavy steps as if she was about to fall down the stairs.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her from behind and couldn¡¯t help but ask: ¡°In a bad mood?¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice trembled a little, ¡°Of course I won¡¯t be in a good mood after being stuck on the highway for a few hours.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded and tried to carry the suitcase again. ¡°I see. Let me do it.¡±


    ¡°No, you leave me alone. I can do it myself.¡± However, Jiang Laien snapped again.


    ¡°Okay, I don¡¯t care!¡± Ye Kehuan was done, so she returned to her dining table to sit down again.


    Maybe because Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice was a little too loud, Jiang Laien suddenly felt a little uncomfortable while listening to it. Then she opened her mouth and let out a sigh. After carrying the suitcase up the last step, she finally turned her head to look downstairs. Jiang Laien opened the door of her room and walked in, then closed the door with a ¡°bang¡±.


    The sound was a little loud, and the crystal lamps in the room seemed to be swaying constantly.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the food on the table with her arms folded, and instantly picked up her bowl and chopsticks, grabbed a prawn, and took a big bite. ¡°You said you missed me earlier, as if you couldn¡¯t let go. Then you suddenly changed your attitude back later. I really don¡¯t understand it, don¡¯t care about it--who would want to care about you? Whoever cares about you is a pig.¡±


    After eating some, it was really too much, so Ye Kehuan packed everything into the kitchen, then opened a small cupboard, took the cake out from it, and directly stuffed a piece of cream into her mouth with her hands.


    Unexpectedly, after deliberating for a long time, she still couldn¡¯t let it go. Ye Kehuan turned on the faucet and began to wash her hands.


    The next day.


    Because Ye Kehuan¡¯s role was finished, and her reputation was still the same as ever, she was not so busy and instead quite leisurely, so she went out to prepare various things for participating in the show.


    Since this show was a tourism and food show, the general model is that the group of people go out to various places with famous food cultures to experience life, appreciate the customs of the world, and even play at some of the local sites. They would taste the local food, and in the end, each group would make the local food with their own hands, and the most authoritative local gourmet would comment on it.


    In general, this was a show of eating and drinking, and probably because the content of the show was relatively light, it was very relaxing, and suitable for people who were devastated by life in the modern era, so its ratings are very high.


    Because the filming of the show would take more than a month in total and spread across twelve cities, some necessary items would need to be prepared. Although Ye Kehuan had never participated in a reality or variety show because she was used to recording in a studio.


    After walking around, Ye Kehuan bought gauze, iodophor, medical cotton swabs, band-aids, some cold medicine, stomach-invigorating tables, compresses, and so on.


    It seemed like she was heading out for a large battle.


    While packing her suitcases in the evening, she felt that her two suitcases looked like a treasure bag of Doraemon with almost everything she wanted.


    After everything was packed, two big suitcases were picked out without paying attention. After thinking about it, Ye Kehuan re-packed in more affordable suitcases with cheaper clothes. She was trying to be as low-key as possible, as she didn¡¯t want people to focus their attention on strange things.


    Although Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien lived together, they set out for the recording separately in order to avoid being gossiped about.


    The recording started after arriving at the first stop and getting off the plane. Ye Kehuan just came out but was taken aback by the huge camera placed in front of her face.


    ¡°Hello, hello.¡± Ye Kehuan immediately spoke to the camera, but the cinematographer didn¡¯t speak, just nodding while carrying the camera.


    So Ye Kehuan pushed her sunglasses up: ¡°You can¡¯t talk, can you?¡±


    The camera clicked up and down again.


    ¡°Hey, okay, let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll get my luggage first.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she carried a small bag and walked towards the luggage conveyor belt, and started to wait to take her luggage.


    The first stop was recorded in a place called Bincheng [En. Beach City or Coastal City]. As the name suggested, it was close to the sea and had beautiful scenery. Although it was not a popular tourist city, the tourism industry had gradually developed in recent years. When the program team came there, it was tantamount to advertising it.


    After Ye Kehuan got her luggage and walked out of the airport, she took a taxi and went to the address given by the program group.


    In the blink of an eye, Ye Kehuan arrived at the small villa arranged by the program group.


    The small villa looked pretty. It was square with open-air balconies and huge swimming pools, but they would only stay there for two days, barely two and a half if they counted that day.


    Ye Kehuan pulled her suitcase, and when she arrived outside the villa, she reached out and pressed the doorbell, and the door opened.


    After entering, a white-born girl opened the door of the villa and greeted her. ¡°Hi. Hello. I¡¯m Bai Wei.¡±


    ¡°Hi, hello, I¡¯m Ye Kehuan.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her hand.


    Who was Bai Wei? Bai Wei was also a newcomer who had first debuted two years ago. She was currently only seventeen years old. She had the face of a first love. She looks very innocent, and a little innocent. She also had two dimples when she laughed, which placed her in a very popular type. Even in real life she looked very easy to get along with.


    ¡°Is it heavy? Let me help you.¡± After Bai Wei finished speaking, she stretched out a slender arm wearing a white ghost crystal1 bracelet towards Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°It¡¯s not heavy at all.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head. After carrying her things in, she looked around at her surroundings. ¡°Are you and I alone here now?¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Bai Wei shook her head. ¡°Sister Wen Xian, Brother Zhao Qi, and Brother Li Yuean went to the supermarket to buy things together, and then Sister Liu Yun, Sister Laien, and Brother Zhou Junyi are busy making dinner in the kitchen.2


    After Ye Kehuan heard Jiang Laien¡¯s name, her entire back stiffened, and then she smiled again: ¡°No wonder, I was wondering why it smells so sweet.¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan set her luggage aside, and walked to the kitchen with Bai Wei.


    The kitchen was quite large, roughly tens of square meters, but there were only three people standing in it. A little girl washing vegetables and the pair of Jiang Laien and Zhou Junyi.


    At this moment, the three people were talking and laughing, seeming to get along very well.


    ¡°Sister Kehuan is here!¡± Bai Wei shouted after entering the kitchen.


    As a result, all three people in the kitchen turned to look at her, including Jiang Laien.


    After Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Laien, she raised her hand and scraped the tip of her nose. ¡°Hello everyone.¡±


    ¡°Hello, you¡¯re here?¡± Liu Yun turned her head around and asked actively.


    ¡°Well, are you cooking?¡± Ye Kehuan walked over. ¡°Is there anything I can help with?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I can handle things here.¡± Zhou Junyi smiled softly at her after listening.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Ye Kehuan stood by the counter, nodded, and then looked at Jiang Laien who was silently cutting potatoes next to her.


    After a while, Jiang Laien fiddled with a thick potato on the cutting board and said softly: ¡°It¡¯s really difficult to cook. I think my potato is ugly.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she was about to speak. As a result, Zhou Junyi, who was standing with her, hurriedly rushed over and stood beside Jiang Laien. Looking at the cutting board, he smiled: ¡°It¡¯s okay, take your time. Beginners are like this; you are already very good.¡±


    ¡°Really? Are you comforting me? Such a big piece can¡¯t be used for braised beef, right?¡± Jiang Laien raised her head and frowned slightly.


    The next second, Zhou Junyi smiled again: ¡°How could I lie to you? It¡¯s okay, come on, I will teach you. First¡­ Then, this¡­¡±


    When Zhou Junyi said these words, the cameraman carried the camera over and gave them a close-up of each of their faces before giving them a close-up of the two in the same frame, which looked like he was going to give them a full CP3.


    Ye Kehuan could predict what kind of fangirl screaming around the details of the two of them would happen after the show started.


    For a while, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what was wrong with her. As soon as she turned her head and saw the two of them who seemed to be very close, she kept feeling choked in her throat and uncomfortable.


    Was Zhou Junyi made of gooey sugar? Do you have no spine? What are you doing so close to Jiang Laien?


    TL/N


    1 - Ghost crystal seems to be a kind of quartz. This is probably a bad machine translation and it means something else though, but I don¡¯t know what.


    2 - When speaking in a formal setting, regardless of what honorifics you give them, people are generally referred to by their full name. Using anything else is a bit informal. That¡¯s why Bai Wei, a girl, uses the full name for all of the men, but only the given name of most of the girls.


    3 - CP is slang for ship, as in the romantic kind. Because this is what is used in Chinese fandoms, I won¡¯t be changing it.

 CH 9

    Ye Kehuan heard the two people chatting about cutting vegetables next to her, and she felt that she was not welcomed anywhere.


    Then Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°I probably understand. I¡¯ll try again.¡±


    As a result, Zhou Junyi stepped a little farther away from her, yet he still looked at her with a smile on his face.


    Ye Kehuan watched for a while. Although she was still smiling for the camera, the pot of old vinegar in her heart could not be covered up after being spilled.


    Obviously, she and Jiang Laien were closer to each other than Zhou Junyi.


    ¡°Kehuan¡­¡± at this moment, Liu Yun stretched her hand from one side and looked at Ye Kehuan, which also made Ye Kehuan regain her clarity.


    ¡°Hey!¡± Ye Kehuan also looked at her. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°Come and help me remove the roots of these bean sprouts. I am a little busy here.¡± Liu Yun wiped the water drops splashed on her face as she spoke.


    Ye Kehuan glanced at Zhou Junyi and Jiang Laien one last time, and then walked towards Liu Yun: ¡°Come!¡±


    Ye Kehuan grabbed a handful of bean sprouts and was about to pinch.


    ¡°Come here, I¡¯ll teach you how to do it¡­¡± Liu Yun saw that Ye Kehuan was a young woman, and thinking that she should not know how to do so, she wanted to take the initiative to teach her.


    In response, Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°It¡¯s okay, I know how.¡±


    After listening Liu Yun was stunned: ¡°Unbelievable.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s incredible?¡± Ye Kehuan asked with a smile.


    ¡°Yes, there are not many young people who are willing to calm down and cook. My son only cooks instant noodles and orders takeaway.¡± Liu Yun shook her head as she spoke.


    Liu Yun was an interview program host. She was now in her forties, but she still looked charming and beautiful.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, everyone is good at different things.¡± Ye Kehuan said happily.


    Liu Yun laughed after listening, and looked back at her from time to time: ¡°I think you are different from what is shown on the TV news.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile. ¡°Where am I different?¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t tell you.¡± Liu Yun smiled and shook her head. ¡°Anyway, it¡¯s different.¡±


    At this moment, Ye Kehuan faintly heard Jiang Laien next to Zhou Junyi: ¡°It¡¯s amazing that you can cut so fine. You can cut better than my mother. Your knife skills are amazing.¡±


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Zhou Junyi smiled.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but look back and said, ¡°In fact, while he¡¯s quite proficient, cutting potato shreds is not a difficult task.¡±


    ¡°Can you cut that fine?¡± Liu Yun asked with a smile.


    ¡°Of course,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Then you can show us your skills!¡± Liu Yun continued to smile.


    After hearing this, Zhou Junyi handed the knife to Ye Kehuan: ¡°Then you can cut the remaining one.¡±


    After receiving the knife, Ye Kehuan smiled, turned her gaze, glanced at Jiang Laien, and then harrumphed. Next, she picked up the potato and slapped it down, then quickly cut it into slices as fine as silk.


    It was really trivial for her to cut things like that. She wanted to let Jiang Laien know that she was more skilled than Zhou Junyi.


    In an instant, both Bai Wei and Liu Yun began clapping. Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips twitched slightly, and she turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, only to find that Jiang Laien was advertising a meal replacement powder provided by a program sponsor.


    In other words, her handsome and compelling side was not seen by Jiang Laien.


    Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s back and not her surroundings, so while she was dazed she didn¡¯t notice her knife was deflected, and cut the top of her hand.


    ¡°Hiss¡ª¡± Involuntarily, Ye Kehuan twisted her browns and let out a light sigh.


    Liu Yun said, ¡°Naturally¡± when she saw it, and then immediately ran to Ye Kehuan and checked her hand: ¡°Oh dear, how could you cut yourself? Does it hurt a lot?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a half a second, then shook her head hurriedly, and said with a smile: ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay. Sister Yun, don¡¯t worry!¡±


    At that moment, Jiang Laien, who was posing to advertise for the sponsors, suddenly became tense, every muscle and cell in her body going stiff.


    Afterwards, Jiang Laien instantly put the merchandise to the side, then turned around, walked to Ye Kehuan, grasped Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand, and raised it in front of her eyes to inspect.


    The action was so sudden and smooth that everyone around her was dumbfounded.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s throat flipped up and down, her eyes moving up to that hand, and then she saw the owner of that hand¡ªJiang Laien.


    ¡°Does it hurt?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her and asked.


    ¡°Fortunately not.¡± Ye Kehuan scratched her head.


    After listening, Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief. Then, she pulled out a HelloKitty Band-Aid from her pocket and tore it open, and then kissed Ye Kehuan¡¯s fingers.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Ye Kehuan said in a low voice while stroking the wound under the band-aid.


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Jiang Laien turned her face to the side. ¡°I need to advertise, so please don¡¯t touch anything in the kitchen.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, her eyes still following Jiang Laien. Suddenly, she felt like a big pervert, so after a light cough, she hurriedly withdrew her gaze.


    After half an hour.


    When the dinner was finished, Wenxian, Li Yuean, and Zhao Qi who had gone shopping before were all back, along with the other two guests who came to participate in the recording of the show, veteran artist Chen Wanluo and Liu Jiangjia, and old opera singer.


    After exchanging greetings with each other, they were seated and ready to eat.


    ¡°Guess what we bought.¡± After everyone was seated, Li Yuean said mysteriously, smiling very brightly.


    ¡°What?¡± Liu Yun asked.


    ¡°A lot of ice cream.¡± Li Yuean raised his brow.


    ¡°What¡¯s so magical about ice cream?¡± Liu Yun almost spat water out of her mouth.


    ¡°Speaking of ice cream, it is indeed not magical, but this should be your first time seeing white wine flavored ice cream!¡± Li Yuean said, putting a bag of ice cream on the table.


    Ye Kehuan opened the bag curiously, and found that there was a lot of white wine flavored ice cream inside.


    ¡°It¡¯s really made of wine?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°It said it contained alcohol, but I thought it was okay when I ate it. It is just a dessert as long as you don¡¯t rush it.¡± Zhao Qi also took out one. ¡°Would you like to try it? I don¡¯t think it should be intoxicating.¡±


    ¡°Try it, I want to try it, it feels very fun,¡± Liu Yun said, and went to get one and unpacked it. After that, she took a bite, opened her eyes wide, and pointed to the ice cream. ¡°It really tastes like liquor, it¡¯s amazing, but not too strong.¡±


    Then Liu Yun looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Would you like to try it too?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien shook her head. ¡°I¡¯ll get knocked out.¡±


    She was indeed the knock-out type, not exaggerating at all.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, just think of it as a cold drink dessert or something.¡± Liu Yun said, picking up one and tossing it to Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien had to catch it, so she tore open the package and ate slowly. At first, she couldn¡¯t bear the smell, but afterwards, she gradually got used to it, and she ate most of the stick before she knew it. At the same time, her mind became a little confused inexplicably.


    In the end, Jiang Laien fell asleep right there. However, whenever someone tried to wake her up, she kept shaking her head, so everyone smiled and said, ¡°I will never let Jiang Laien drink in the future.¡± They had to let her stay there temporarily.


    After dinner was over and put away, everyone sat around the table again and started discussing the topic of sleeping. However, Jiang Laien was still a little confused. She kept supporting her head with her hands, and from time to time it would almost slip down, and her eyes were almost closed.


    ¡°There are ten people in total, and there are only five rooms. Therefore, two people must be put in each room. How do we divide?¡± Liu Yun said.


    ¡°You arrange it, we¡¯ll listen to you.¡± Bai Wei said.


    ¡°Let¡¯s do this. Junyi and Zhao Qi in one, Yuean and Jianjia in another. After all, they are all boys. Next, Wanluo and I, because we¡¯re both old. Finally, Wanwan and Weiwei are young, so they have a common topic. Laien and Kehuan, what do you think?¡±


    ¡°I think it¡¯s good!¡± Bai Wei nodded.


    ¡°I also think it¡¯s reasonable.¡± Wen Xian also nodded.


    Ye Kehuan looked sideways at Jiang Laien, who was a little drunk, and coughed without saying much.


    Then, everyone took their own things and went to stay in the room of their choice.


    After Ye Kehuan took her luggage into the room, she went back and got Jiang Laien¡¯s suitcase for her.


    The layout of the room was very small and fresh, with a large double bed insde, and pillows with the label of the program group on the bed.


    As soon as Jiang Laien walked in, she picked up a pillow from the bed and squeezed it, threw it towards the door, then picked it up and continued to squeeze, her whole person looking very confused.


    Ye Kehuan touched the HelloKitty band-aid wrapped around her finger. After watching for a while, she finally walked over and stood next to her: ¡°Are you okay?¡±


    ¡°En¡­¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    However, having said that, the next second, Jiang Laien¡¯s body suddenly leaned back, and then fell onto the bed. Then, Jiang Laien moved a bit to find a more comfortable position to lie on her side and fell asleep.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her for a while, then looked at the camera, and then stretched out her hand to pull at the hem of Jiang Laien¡¯s slightly rolled up jacket. ¡°I¡¯m going to get a damp towel to wash your face.¡±


    However, Jiang Laien shook her head the next second: ¡°I want to take a bath.¡±


    ¡°Take a bath?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned. ¡°Can you do it?¡±


    Then Jiang Laien went silent again.


    So, in the end, Ye Kehuan walked to her and leaned down to hug her: ¡°Then I will try to wash it for you.¡±


    However, the drunk Jiang Laien was exceptionally heavy, and Ye Kehuan clasped her shoulders tightly, almost using all her strength to finally stagger and carry her into the bathroom.


    The light in the bathroom looked a little dim. In order to ensure the privacy of the artists, there was no camera in it. The sound insulation effect was also good, so you could rest assured while you take a bath.


    But Ye Kehuan still closed the curtain, and after that, she closed the glass door again before slowly putting Jiang Laien into the bathtub.


    The shower was above the bathtub. When Ye Kehuan put Jiang Laien down, she inadvertently toggled the shower switch. In an instant, the pure and heavy water sprinkled from above, and instantly wetted both of their clothes.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s wet hair stuck to shining clavicles, like a smear of ink, making her skin look like white porcelain, and her lips were bright red.


    Ye Kehuan lost consciousness for a moment but was about to get up. However, Jiang Laien did not let go of her neck, but tightened her arms, making the distance between the two of them shrink rapidly.


    Ye Kehuan staggered, her heart pounding and skipping, and her breathing tight: ¡°Laien?¡±


    ¡°...Huh?¡± Jiang Laien frowned, then her red lips opened slightly, looking a little confused. She looked up and down at her, then stretched out her hand and gently stroked her shoulder, her eyes lighting up. Turning, she whispered: ¡°Why are you sweating so much, are you hot?¡±

 CH 10

    ¡°I¡¯m not.¡± Ye Kehuan settled down, then hurriedly shook her head.


    However, she said this sentence with a trace of a guilty conscience, and even she didn¡¯t believe it.


    ¡°Then you¡­¡± Jiang Laien raised her body slightly while she was talking, and continued to look at her. ¡°Why is it so hot?¡±


    I have to say that Jiang Laien¡¯s drunk and dim look is very charming¡­


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes, turned her head away, and gulped slightly: ¡°Because, it¡¯s summer.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her forehead with a little sweat, then she leaned close to her ear, looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s face at close range, and asked in a low voice.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Your ears are so red¡­¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand again and touched her ear as she spoke.


    However, the moment that Jiang Laien touched her, Ye Kehuan suddenly turned her head away.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien stared at her in confusion.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing, you can wash quickly. I will wash after you wash.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she ran out of the bathroom in a panic.


    In fact, most of Jiang Laien¡¯s drunkenness had disappeared. After all, it was just an alcoholic ice cream, which isn¡¯t much.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s escape from the back, she couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her hand and gently place it on her lips, thinking about some questions.


    Why? Why did Ye Kehuan¡¯s appearance just now look so abnormal? Also, when she was in the kitchen before, Ye Kehuan seemed to be watching her in secret all the time.


    Turning on the faucet, Jiang Laien stretched her slender hand into the water, litcking it again and again. The water drops slowly flowed down her tight calf, and the corners of her lips curled up.


    On the other side, Ye Kehuan returned to the bedroom. Ye Kehuan raised her hand to cover her forehead, and let out a sigh of relief. She didn¡¯t know what was going on with her; she was coveting Jiang Laien so greatly. Ye Kehuan felt that she was going crazy.


    Lowering her head, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but look at herself. She didn¡¯t remember what she was doing.


    After a while, Jiang Laien finally walked out of the bathroom wearing a set of conservative pajamas. After all, she was filming a show, so she can¡¯t dress too casually to avoid being made out as loose. This was the case in the entertainment industry, where you had to be cautious in everything you do.


    ¡°I¡¯m done.¡± Jiang Laien walked to Ye Kehuan as she spoke.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan, who was playing on her mobile phone, raised her head to look at her, then nodded. ¡°Then, I¡¯m going.¡±


    ¡°Go.¡± Jiang Laien kept staring at her.


    Jiang Laien suddenly felt that no matter what Ye Kehuan¡¯s thoughts were, wouldn¡¯t it be wise to approach her through the show and ease the relationship between them? Moreover, this was originally her biggest purpose in participating on the show. Otherwise, what else would she be doing here?


    Anyway, from the public¡¯s point of view, a girl who behaves intimately with a girl could just be close girl-friends. It didn¡¯t matter, and a good relationship between them could also help Ye Kehuan in her career. Thinking about this, Jiang Laien started brewing some small ideas.


    Ye Kehuan took her clothes and walked into the bathroom, then turned around inexplicably and looked at Jiang Laien. Jiang Laien was gazing intently at a book, so she turned around and continued to the bathroom. In the end, she accidentally bumped into the door frame, and she couldn¡¯t help but frown in pain.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien put down the book and asked her.


    ¡°Nothing, nothing.¡± Ye Kehuan covered her forehead and shook her head, trying to escape faster.


    The next day.


    Early in the morning, Ye Kehuan got up and found that Jiang Laien was no longer in the room, so she washed her face and brushed her teeth with a mess of long hair. She was about to go out when she happened to see Jiang Laien appearing at the door.


    ¡°Good morning.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her and said hello.


    ¡°Good morning. Your skin seems a bit dry. Have you been taking care of it recently?¡± Jiang Laien wore a light blue suspender skirt, which matched her very well, making her look gentle and showing some delicate skin.


    ¡°Recently, my work and rest have not been good, so my skin has become a little worse.¡± Ye Kehuan replied.


    ¡°Then try on this face cream, from the Antlers brand. I have used it a lot recently.¡± Jiang Laien picked up a tube of Antlers face cream as she spoke.


    This was provided by a sponsor of the program group. Everyone would advertise for them from time to time. Ye Kehuan just forgot about it.


    ¡°Thank you, I will apply it and get better.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she went to grab the cream and unscrew the cap, then dug out two small lumps and put it on her face.


    ¡°Wait a minute.¡± Jiang Laien stopped her again.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan was startled.


    ¡°No, you can¡¯t apply facial cream like this. Come, I¡¯ll teach you.¡± Jiang Laien said, and distributed the cream to Ye Kehuan¡¯s forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin. Hotly, she gently rubbed it into Ye Kehuan¡¯s face.


    Ye Kehuan was startled. Were these actions by Jiang Laien to advertise for the sponsor, or¡­


    Jiang Laien¡¯s hands were very warm, and her touch was very gentle. When Ye Kehuan met her slightly raised eyes, the back of her ears became hot inexplicably.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Finally, Jiang Laien withdrew her hand.


    ¡°Um¡­ Thank you, this one feels really good on my skin. I think I will buy one when I get back.¡± Ye Kehuan coughed after reading the advertisement. ¡°Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s have breakfast.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her back, and the corners of her lips twitched gently.


    After eating the group set out to go outside.


    It was obviously summer, but because it rained in the middle of the night, the street dust was washed away, and the trees shone a delicate green. The air was mixed with the unique fragrance of plants and trees, so it made people feel like everything was all right.


    Zhou Junyi came over to talk to Jiang Laien when he was free. Jiang Laien walked aside, like a cold-blooded killer.


    However, when Jiang Laien turned her head, Ye Kehuan looked at her and thought of the strange throbbing in her heart the previous night. She could help but lower her head to look at the ground.


    This morning they mainly used to play, because there is a room escape game that is said to be particularly scary, so the program team asked everyone to experience it together.


    When learning about this bit, Liu Yun looked very happy, pressing the fisherman hat on her head and said: ¡°I think things like this the most.¡±


    ¡°But, isn¡¯t it scary?¡± Bai Wei couldn¡¯t help asking.


    After listening, Liu Yun touched her chin: ¡°I don¡¯t get very scared when I think that they are all fake.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, which seemed unacceptable.


    At this time, Zhou Junyi turned his head to look at Jiang Laien and asked, ¡°Do you feel scared?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at him: ¡°A little bit, but it¡¯s okay.¡±


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter, I have the effect of warding off evil spirits.¡± Zhou Junyi smiled.


    At this time, the camera brother ran to them very dedicatedly and took close-ups of them.


    However, Jiang Laien¡¯s gaze simply bypassed the camera brother and locked onto Ye Kehuan¡¯s body.


    Ye Kehuan watched from the side and let out a small sigh. This guy wards off evil spirits, is he carved from peach wood or cinnabar?


    After a while, the group bought the tickets and went into the dark secret room one after another.


    ¡°When the time is up, if you haven¡¯t come out yet, you can extend for up to half an hour.¡± The staff in the secret room said through the door.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    Then, the staff in the secret room left, leaving only the program guests and the cameraman.


    The inside of the room looked terrifying. The horror was ingrained in the layout and soundtrack of the house. However, for Ye Kehuan, it was okay.


    After all, she didn¡¯t believe in ghosts or gods since she was a child.1


    It was quite simple at first, and soon a level was unlocked, but when the door was opened, a skull instantly rolled out, and everyone couldn¡¯t help but hug each other and scream.


    Afterwards, everyone rushed out again into the second room. After searching for a long time and opening a mechanism, a ghost hiding behind the door suddenly flew out! At the same time, there was still very gloomy music reverberating in the room. Bai Wei even burst into tears in fright, and plunged into Liu Yun¡¯s arms.


    He was just too scared. Therefore, when the ¡°ghost¡± chased after him, Zhou Junyi ignored Jiang Laien and the others who remained in the small room. He ran and opened the third door, then closed it behind him and shut it on Jiang Laien and the others, locking them in the small room.


    At the same time, the ghost wearing white clothes with long hair also ran up from behind, stretched out its hands, and suddenly slammed its face in front of Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien was stunned for a second, then suddenly hugged her head and squatted down, screaming sorrowfully.


    When Ye Kehuan heard her cry, she was taken aback and turned her head: ¡°Laien?!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m here¡­¡± After that, a small sob came from a corner. The voice was trembling, and it sounded very helpless.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan¡¯s entire brain was involuntarily stunned, only focused on finding Jiang Laien quickly to comfort her.


    So Ye Kehuan hurried over and immediately squatted down, hugging Jiang Laien hand pressing her head into her chest: ¡°It¡¯s okay, don¡¯t be afraid, I am here.¡±


    Jiang Laien, who was trembling at first, finally stopped shaking after being held in Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms. Then, she rolled her eyes and suddenly thought of something, so she stretched out her arms underneath Ye Kehuan¡¯s to hug her tightly. Then she moved her head to Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulders and whispered in her ear: ¡°Really?¡±


    Everything was normal at first, but at that moment, Ye Kehuan felt that her heartbeat rhythm began to become a little weird.


    Compared to the so-called ghosts, Ye Kehuan felt that Jiang Laien in front of her was more like a fairy.


    The author has something to say: I wanted to ask, is it true that one one watched it?

 CH 11

    Probably because there was not much space in the secret horror room, and there were so many people, everyone was crowded together, which made them feel a little embarrassed.


    In such a terrifying atmosphere, Ye Kehuand and Jiang Laien stood together closely, and without realizing it, a thin layer of sweat swelled in the palms of their hands.


    Under such conditions, even if the camera captured this anomaly, the audience viewers should not think it was anything except that she was scared of ghosts.


    ¡°Are you scared?¡± Ye Kehuan asked slowly.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Jiang Laien put her arms on her shoulders and nodded gently.


    After speaking to her, Ye Kehuan only felt that her body was getting warmer and warmer. Then, she nodded and stretched out her hand: ¡°Then you can follow me.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien said, touching Ye Kehuand¡¯s right hand and gradually clasping it with her fingers. Every step Ye Kehuan took, she would also take one step forward.


    After a while, the group of people finally came out of the horror secret room. Although they were finally saved, they still looked very embarrassed and sweaty.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien came out from inside, they finally let go of their hands, but only because someone offered water for them to drink.


    ¡°I think this secret room is good. It¡¯s really scary. It can rank among the top three of the horror secret rooms I¡¯ve experienced.¡± After Liu Yun took a sip of water, she raised her hand to wipe sweat from her brow and turned her head to observe the group.


    ¡°Yeah, it was terrible. I think I¡¯m going to have a nightmare tonight.¡± Bai Wei couldn¡¯t help but pick up the conversation.


    ¡°But, Kehuan, why are you so calm? I don¡¯t feel like you were afraid.¡± Wen Xian looked at Ye Kehuan as she spoke. ¡°When I saw the ghost trying to scare you, you accidentally stepped on her clothes. Your apology to her was very embarrassing.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was happy after listening. ¡°I¡¯ve always been bolder than most, so it¡¯s okay.¡±


    ¡°Haha,¡± Bai Wei suddenly laughed at this moment. ¡°Furthermore, Sister Kehuan just now got a new girlfriend, Sister Laien, I don¡¯t know if you saw it.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard this, she almost squirted out a sip of water. She raised her finger to her chest, her face covered in astonishment.


    Jiang Laien turned her head a little and looked at her.


    ¡°I saw it! Sister Laien was scared to death, and then Sister Kehuan ran over to embrace her,¡± Bai Wei said, trotting all the way to the side of Jiang Laien. She stretched out her hand to hold Jiang Laien¡¯s shoulder, and copied Ye Kehuan: ¡°It¡¯s okay, don¡¯t be afraid, I am here!¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard this, she was almost choked by the mineral water she was drinking.


    ¡°Hahaha, yes!¡± Wen Xian slapped her hands. ¡°If it weren¡¯t because you are girls, I would have thought you¡¯d grown a third leg.¡±


    At this moment, Jiang Laien laughed and looked at Ye Kehuan again. There seemed to be a pool of spring water in her eyes, and her voice was soft: ¡°However, being with Ye Kehuan indeed has a very reassuring feeling to it.¡±


    After hearing this, Ye Kehuan tightened her grip on the mineral water bottle in her hand. People would not know whether Jiang Laien¡¯s words were spoken from the bottom of her heart or were performed for the effect of the program¡­


    ¡°Ah! Really? I¡¯m going to scream!¡± At this moment, Bai Wei suddenly raised her face and screamed loudly. ¡°I don¡¯t know why, but I suddenly feel so excited!¡±


    ¡°Maybe you¡¯re just silly¡­¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her, then glanced at the cameraman who ran over to take pictures of her without stopping. Scratching her head, she walked forward first: ¡°It¡¯s okay, let¡¯s go have lunch. Go, go, I¡¯m starving to death here.¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Bai Wei raised her small fist.


    As for Zhou Junyi, after coming out of the secret room, he became much more taciturn. Probably because he knew he didn¡¯t perform well. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the show to get close to Jiang Laien, and then make another wave through CPs, but now he felt he had wasted all his previous efforts.


    After everyone came out, they all teased him for being so timid, saying that he was all hot air, but it was also a fact that his image had collapsed. You know, what he created in front of the public had always been a warm male image.


    Lunch was eaten in a restaurant by the sea. The restaurant was very distinctive. Inside were some old wooden tables. The roof was covered with many banana leaf-like things. There were many small pendants hanging in the house. There were also two wind chimes hanging at the door. When the wind passed by, they would make a crisp sound.


    After the group sat down and ordered their food, they began to chat. The content of the chat was messy, just like during a small gathering of friends on weekdays, making people forget that they were actually doing a show now.


    ¡°It¡¯s pretty beautiful here, isn¡¯t it?¡± Liu Yun took off her sunglasses and looked into the distance.


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s like a natural filter. Maybe this is the charm of the sea on a sunny day.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Hey, I want to record it with an SC camera.¡± At this time, Bai Wei took out the camera provided by the sponsor and pressed the shutter towards the scenery in front of her.


    ¡°Look at this beach, I absolutely love it. I have always wanted a sea-view room.¡± Wen Xian drank the drink that the waiter served, and pointed her finger into the distance.


    ¡°Me too,¡± Liu Yun curled her lips slightly, ¡°It¡¯s so comfortable to lie here and watch the sea when you get old.¡±


    At this moment, Zhao Qi suddenly smiled and said: ¡°Speaking of which, if you want to buy a house, come to me, my brother sells houses!¡±


    Wen Xian sneered: ¡°This young man¡¯s business is certainly broad.¡±


    After this incident, the atmosphere instantly became a lot more relaxed.


    In the blink of an eye, the lunch dishes were ready. Locally-sauced fish, local cold three-color wild vegetables, local bamboo fungus stewed loofah, tomato sirloin, mushroom chicken, oil-stewed eggplant, special egg fried rice; each one looked very delicious and exuded a fatal fragrance. Just looking at them made people salivate crazily, and everyone in the room made ¡°Wow¡± sounds one after another.


    Almost all of the people who had been acting all morning suddenly forgot they had to stay in shape, and gobbled them all up.


    In the blink of an eye, the lunch was swept away by everyone, and then the program team handed over a task card.


    After receiving the task card, Liu Yun cleared her throat and started reading: Dear members of ¡°The Food is Ready¡±: Tonight, you will cook sweet fish with local sauces, special egg fried rice, and tomato sirloin. The ingredients will be prepared by the program team in advance. At 5:30 in the afternoon, all members are invited to gather at Rock Creek nearby for a one-and-a-half hour match!¡±


    After Liu Yun finished reading, sounds of wailing began to start, and Bai Wei clasped her head: ¡°Ah, I¡¯m going to die.¡±


    However, Ye Kehuan smiled with her arms folded. The opportunity for her to give a big punch was here. None of those things were a problem for her.


    In the blink of an eye, it was five o¡¯clock in the afternoon.


    So, after the members cleaned up, they set off toward the assembly place one after another.


    When she got there, she saw that it was a big open space with five stoves lined up in the middle, and beside it were kitchen utensils, condiments, and fresh ingredients provided by various sponsors. Various types of photographic equipment were also prepared.


    When the other members saw it, they all moaned, but when Ye Kehuan saw it, her eyes shone.


    Then, after the host of the show, Barabara, the members of each group took their place and got busy.


    Jiang Laien, who had always been calm, was finally a little panicked at this time, standing next to Ye Kehuan: ¡°What should I do?¡±


    ¡°You should wash those things first, and then peel the garlic or something.¡± Ye Kehuan gave her the ingredients, and after thinking about it, she took out the fish for herself. ¡°These fish, they have many small bones. I¡¯ll get rid of them.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, the corners of her lips kept twitching upwards, and then she took the things.


    ¡°Wait.¡± But at this moment, Ye Kehuan stopped her again.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien turned around with the vegetable basket.


    ¡°Tie an apron.¡± Ye Kehuan opened an apron as she spoke.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien nodded and put down the vegetable basket.


    However, when Ye Kehuan reached out her hand and picked up the apron strings to tie them, Jiang Laien stretched out her arm to pull up her hair, and a jade bracelet exuding sophistication fell from her wrist. It had a very nice look to it.


    Ye Kehuan stared at the velvety hair and the porcelain-white skin on the back of her neck, her throat clenching. Hands trembling, she continued to tie the apron silently.


    I have to say that Jiang Laien looks very beautiful, no matter where she is.


    After Ye Kehuan got her tied, Jiang Laien turned her head slightly: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed slightly, ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡±


    Although the cooking area was quite big, because there was no air-conditioning, and it was the summer, it was full of heat. Without anyone noticing, they all began to sweat.


    Just when Ye Kehuan put the marinating fish aside, a lot of sweat was already coming out on her back and forehead, which was a bit uncomfortable, but her hands were really dirty, so even if she wanted to wipe the sweat as quickly as possible, she couldn¡¯t wipe it off.


    However, when she turned around, Jiang Laien, who was holding a handkerchief in her hand, appeared in front of her in a charming manner. For a while, the two of them were almost nose-to-nose, and their breaths lingered vaguely. A certain place began to throb.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, her throat clenching again.


    ¡°You sweat a lot.¡± After Jiang Laien finished speaking, she pressed the handkerchief to Ye Kehuan¡¯s cheeks and wiped them down little by little. Her movements were very light and soft.

 CH 12

    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Ye Kehuan turned around and quickly rushed to grab the sirloin next to her, lifted the kitchen knife, and quickly cut the sirloin into pieces.


    She didn¡¯t know what was going on. Although in recent years, she preferred seeing beautiful women more than handsome guys, it was only appreciation, but Jiang Laien had made her a little¡­


    In short, Ye Kehuan was more heated now.


    After tying her hair, Jiang Laien smiled and began to peel the garlic cloves, and then took the washed tomatoes and celery next to Ye Kehuan and cut them into pieces.


    Then, Ye Kehuan picked up a pot of cold water and put the sirloin in to blanch. After a while, a lot of blood foam boiled in the pot.


    After removing the sirloin, Ye Kehuan poured out the blanching water, and then began to wash the sirloin with water and dried it.


    After everything was ready, Ye Kehuan picked up another pot of oil and poured it in a circle. After the oil temperature was almost the same, she picked up a plate of ingredients and opened an advertisement for the materials provided by the program team: ¡°A great show is about to happen. First, we pour our Feihong brand peanut oil in to saut¨¦ our onion, ginger, garlic, and aniseed.¡±


    At this time, Jiang Laien picked up from Ye Kehuan¡¯s words: ¡°This brand of peanut oil smells really good!¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan chuckled, and followed Jiang Laien¡¯s words to continue advertising, ¡°I hope the program team can give me a few more bottles after the show is over.¡±


    Once the things were put in the pan, within a few seconds they were fried and crackling, and at the same time, the fragrance from the ingredients were perfectly melding.


    Wearing an apron with a large spoon in her hand, Ye Kehuan¡¯s movements were sharp and handsome. At this time, Ye Kehuan looked like a real chef. The people around couldn¡¯t help looking at her.


    Liu Yun knew that Ye Kehuan would definitely be able to cook, but she didn¡¯t expect that Ye Kehuan¡¯s cooking level seemed to be so high!


    ¡°Okay, now the aniseed and so on are all saut¨¦ed, we¡¯re almost done, let¡¯s put in the sirloin!¡± Then Ye Kehuan poured the cleaned sirloin into the pot, poured in a lot of wine, and held the handle of the pot, stir frying with a fiery light in her eyes. ¡°Stir well!¡±


    Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s stir-frying, some small oil stars gradually appeared on the skin of the sirloin, and then it became a little charred.


    This had just become the main topic: a scent which couldn¡¯t be hidden had begun floating out, causing everyone¡¯s stomachs to grumble. Jiang Laien watched the golden brisket gradually begin appearing in the pot, and couldn¡¯t help swallowing. She felt so hungry, and the more she looked, the hungrier she got. Involuntarily, Jiang Laien picked up half of the extra tomato and took a bite, but still felt that she couldn¡¯t satisfy her stomach.


    ¡°Remove the seasoning and add it to the saucepan!¡± Ye Kehuan yelled angrily, taking the seasoning away, and put all the saut¨¦ed sirloin pieces into a large saucepan. A lot of water was inside. ¡°Add water, cover, and boil on high heat!¡±


    The whole process was smooth and flowing, and the eyes of the people around her moved along with the movements of her hands. Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan from the side, and couldn¡¯t help but laugh again, then tilted her head and wiped Ye Kehuan¡¯s sweat with her handkerchief.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her and whispered, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    After nearly an hour passed, the aroma of the beef brisket pot became more and more intense. Ye Kehuan glanced at the time and started to make fish.


    Pouring the water from the pot, adding the dried bean curd, shiitake mushroom, and shrimps in, then blanch it again and remove it. Ye Kehuan started to fry the fish again, and continued to fry until it was golden on both sides before removing it.


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan put the diced beef, peanuts, garlic slices, shiitake slices, and green onions into the pan and fried them together to create a fragrant flavor. Then she added the sweet noodle sauce and the previously blanched stuff and fried them again. After a short while, a fresh fragrance began to pour into people¡¯s noses and made them salivate.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan poured cooking wide and water into the pot, stirred properly, put the golden-fried fish into it, and let it simmer slowly. Even though Ye Kehuan put a lid on it, with the prolonged cooking time, the scent it let out was hard to hide.


    After ten minutes passed, Ye Kehuan opened the pot and saw that the rich juice in the pot was still boiling, and the fish in it had been simmered so that the skin was wrinkled.


    Turning off the heat and removing the fish, Ye Kehuan placed it on a plate. Then she used a large spoon to scoop up the remaining thick broth in the pot and poured it over the fish bit by bit.


    In a short time, the sauced fish was ready. The whole meal was perfect, with the fish swimming in the delicious thick broth; even if you looked at it from a distance, it would stir your appetite and your tongue to salivate.


    ¡°It looks so delicious! I really want to eat it!¡± Bai Wei couldn¡¯t help screaming.


    ¡°It¡¯s just okay¡­¡± Ye Kehuan smiled shyly.


    ¡°I really want to eat the dishes you make¡­¡± Bai Wei narrowed her mouth.


    ¡°After this, if I have time, should I make you a meal?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°Yeah! I have to say, you are really too powerful!¡± Bai Wei took out her phone. ¡°And your personality is good too. Many people on the Internet are talking nonsense. I want to tell them that you are not that kind of person!¡±


    After speaking, Bai Wei posted on Weibo: ¡°I was shocked. The more I see, the more I feel that Sister Kehuan is so good, completely different from her legendary appearance!¡±


    It didn¡¯t take long for the netizen¡¯s messages to stun her.


    [Commercial lies?]


    [Weiwei, were you kidnapped by her? Don¡¯t be afraid, hold on!]


    [Lying about her¡­ Don¡¯t polish it, no matter how white she is, I still won¡¯t like that turd even if I die.]


    Bai Wei obviously couldn¡¯t help being stunned, and holding her mobile phone she aggrievedly said: ¡°I¡¯m speechless. Obviously what I said was true.¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯m used to it.¡±


    Next, Jiang Laien opened the lid of the sirloin under Ye Kehuan¡¯s instructions, and poured the diced tomato into it, added salt, stirred gently, and then re-covered it. Ye Kehuan gave the program a relatively simple meal. The more complex meal was started with Jiang Laien¡¯s beaten egg mixture, stirred evenly, and the two worked together under a division of labor, and they worked well together.


    To make this kind of egg fried rice, the rice should not be sticky, and the egg liquid should not be too much, otherwise it may fail.


    She started by heating the oil in the pan, and then Ye Kehuan poured the mixed rice in and started to stir fry quickly. Since each rice grain was wrapped in egg liquid, when the egg liquid solidified, the whole fried rice had a golden appearance.


    Ye Kehuan poured the diced tomatoes in and fried for a while, then added salt and chopped green onions. After a while, the aroma of egg fried rice floated to everyone¡¯s noses.


    Just as Ye Kehuan finished the loosely fried egg fried rice, Jiang Laien scooped the tomato sirloin out of the pot. Everyone in the court was shocked, but at the same time, everyone¡¯s stomachs began to grumble louder.


    In the blink of an eye, the time was up, and everyone was forced to stop no matter if they were done or not.


    Then, the gourmets sat all together, waiting for the various groups to serve their dishes.


    Zhou Junyi¡¯s was the first group, and he was quite confident when he was serving the dishes. After all, none of the people around him who had eaten the food he cooked said it was bad. In fact, they all boasted about it.


    In fact, after the foodies finished tasting, they nodded one after another, saying that it was not bad. Zhou Junyi couldn¡¯t help laughing. It seemed that he would be able to win this time.


    Then, after the gourmets finished tasting the other three groups, it was the turn of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but clench her fists.


    The gourmets scooped up a spoonful of Ye Kehuan¡¯s egg fried rice, chewed it and swallowed it, and were silent for a moment.


    After a while, one of them said, ¡°God. This is probably the best fried rice I have ever eaten!¡±


    ¡°Yes! Each spoonful is wrapped in golden eggs, slightly sour tomatoes, and fragrant green onions¡ªit¡¯s delicious!¡±


    Seeing that the egg fried rice was well received, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but laugh as a weight was removed from her heart.


    At this time, a gourmet moved on to the fish.


    Every piece of the fish looked so perfect. The skin on the outside was soft and glutinous, and the meat inside was very tender. When you eat it, the juice drips on your taste buds, which immediately creates a greatly enjoyable taste.


    After eating the fish made by Ye Kehuan, the gourmets couldn¡¯t help giving their thumbs up.


    ¡°With this kind of cooking skill, it would be okay to be a chef.¡±


    ¡°Yes, the taste of this fish is relatively heavy, but the taste of the meat still shines through. How did you do it?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan laughed, and then roughly talked about her ordinary skills.


    Then, everyone hurriedly picked up the tomato sirloin made by Ye Kehuan and put it in their mouths and tasted it carefully.


    After eating, a gourmet nodded: ¡°The sirloin is really soft and delicious, and the beef tendon is very good. They are delicious and delicious!¡±


    After he finished speaking, he continued to stuff his face, and poured a little bit of soup with just the right consistency onto the fried rice, stirred it and swallowed. He nodded as he ate, only feeling that it was so delicious that he couldn¡¯t speak.


    Bai Wei stood to the side and swallowed hard: ¡°Ah, I feel like eating this so much. I really want a bite!¡±


    Hearing Bai Wei¡¯s words like this, her partner patted her shoulder gently: ¡°I will make you something when we get back?¡±


    Bai Wei glanced at the food in front of her, and finally smiled awkwardly: ¡°I don¡¯t want it anymore.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed and looked at the judges again, and found that in a short period of time, everything she made had been eaten up by everyone!


    In the end, the gourmets hardly had any disputes, and the group of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien was selected as first place in this challenge!


    ¡°We did it, we did it!¡±


    Excited, Ye Kehuan turned around and hugged Jiang Laien, pressed her into her arms, and put her chin on her shoulder.


    Hearing the words, Jiang Laien gently hugged her back and nodded with a smile: ¡°Yes, that¡¯s great!¡±


    After realizing what she was doing, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but freeze.

 CH 13

    In an instant, Ye Kehuan hurriedly released Jiang Laien, and then took her hand back: ¡°Sorry, I was a little too excited just now.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Jiang Laien said softly.


    Then Ye Kehuan walked aside, squeezed out a glop of soap, and turned on the faucet to rinse herself.


    Jiang Laien stood by holding the handkerchief and looked at her quietly.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the water coming out of the faucet, thinking that she must be crazy. What was going on with her now? Why was it normal for some movements to be done with others, but when the target was Jiang Laien, she felt abnormal everywhere?


    While washing, Ye Kehuan unconsciously looked at Jiang Laien, so Jiang Laien, who had been watching Ye Kehuan wash her hands, instantly moved her eyes and locked eyes with Ye Kehuan.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan was stunned and almost knocked over a bowl next to her. Then, she hurriedly turned her head around and raised her hand to wipe her chin.


    Upon seeing this, Jiang Laien chuckled and poked her shoulder lightly: ¡°You, why are you keeping so far away?¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed, ¡°I¡¯m a little tired today.¡±


    ¡°Then go to bed early tonight.¡± Jiang Laien laughed.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    After a while, everyone was done tidying up everything, and then they sat with the staff in the Ben Thanh Hotel and waited for dinner.


    As far as Bencheng was concerned, this hotel had a long history and great reputation. It was said that many celebrities had come to film and some celebrities had come to eat; some photos taken by them were still hanging in the lobby.


    After the group finished admiring, they finally sat down at a large round table in a second floor box under the guidance of a waiter, and then began to order.


    ¡°Kehuan really opened our eyes today!¡± Wen Xian started the conversation while waiting for the meal.


    Although it was only the second day of the show¡¯s recording, Ye Kehuan¡¯s presence in the show was already obvious. It can be said that many topics and things were carried out around her.


    After Ye Kehuan heard Wen Xian¡¯s words, although her face was smiling brightly, she still stretched out her hand and waved it: ¡°You overpraise.¡±


    ¡°Where did you win your award? It looked just great, but they ate everything. I wanted to try a chopstick, but I didn¡¯t have a chance.¡± Liu Yun said.


    Everyone nodded one after another.


    There was a great amount of laughter during their dinner.


    Seeing that they were getting along so happily, Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief. Everything was stable, and it seemed that after the show was broadcast, the counter-response would be pretty good.


    After the meal was over, it was almost nine o¡¯clock in the evening. So, as everyone chatted, they walked towards the villa, and there was almost no interruption to their merriment.


    ¡°Huanhuan, are you 25 this year?¡± Liu Yun suddenly asked when she walked into the villa.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback after listening: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Jiang Laien also turned her head towards them and listened to their chat quietly.


    ¡°What are your requirements for your marriage partner?¡± Liu Yun continued to ask.


    When Jiang Laien heard this, she couldn¡¯t help squeezing her hands tightly.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan frowned slightly, looking forward and quietly thinking aloud: ¡°Well¡­ We would need to get along, and their moral aspect would also have to be good.¡±


    After listening to her, Liu Yun laughed: ¡°I think you are pretty good. I like you, and what¡¯s more, I have a nephew who is pretty good, and he¡¯s single now. If you have the opportunity, would you like to meet?¡±


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t expect Liu Yun to mention this suddenly, and she was stupefied.


    ¡°Ah--¡± But at this moment, Jiang Laien¡¯s scream suddenly came from the side.


    Everyone was stunned and looked at her hurriedly, only to see that Jiang Laien had fallen to the ground, her eyebrows deeply frowning, and she looked in pain.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t say a word first, immediately rushing forward with a single stride to reach out and half hugged her.


    Jiang Laien shook her head and looked at her back: ¡°I was looking and listening to your chat when I missed a step inadvertently and fell.¡±


    ¡°Where did you fall?¡± Ye Kehuan held her arm.


    ¡°Back shoulder¡­¡± Jiang Laien closed her eyes again.


    ¡°Would you like to go to the hospital?¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her shoulders.


    ¡°No, it¡¯s too far. It doesn¡¯t matter, it¡¯s not particularly painful. I¡¯ll just apply some ointment later.¡± Jiang Laien gently shook her head as she spoke.


    ¡°Hey, be careful!¡± A worried look appeared on Liu Yun¡¯s face.


    ¡°Sorry, I worried you.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, clapped her hands, then stood up, rubbed her back shoulders and continued to walk forward.


    Ye Kehuan followed behind her after watching her for a while, so the previous chat with Liu Yun ended in that way.


    After returning to the bedroom, Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien who was turning over things: ¡°You take a shower first.¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Jiang Laien turned her head and smiled, ¡°I¡¯m looking for something, you should first.¡±


    ¡°Oh,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded and picked up her pajamas, ¡°then I will go in first.¡±


    However, when she walked to the bathroom door, Ye Kehuan stopped again and turned around: ¡°You, are you really okay?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked up at her and nodded.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Oh, then I will go in.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan finally went into the bathroom this time.


    After her wash, Ye Kehuan came out of the bathroom, stood in front of the mirror to dry her hair, turned off the hair dryer, fiddled with her hair, and looked around.


    ¡°How come there are cameras everywhere, don¡¯t do it like this¡­¡± Ye Kehuan looked around and found that there seemed to be no camera on the mirror with the exaggerated decoration, so she finally sighed, ¡°Let¡¯s find something to cover those cameras.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan took a few towels and covered several cameras. Then she walked to the mirror, leaned close to it, and squeezed a bulge of skin on her forehead with a distorted face. It was only a little bit red. White acne.


    With a click, the acne popped, and Ye Kehuan showed a relaxed expression: ¡°What else is more interesting than drinking pop pearl milk tea and squeezing acne¡­¡±


    In an instant, the acne was squeezed out, but after Ye Kehuan stared at herself in the mirror for a while, the desire to perform came from the depths of her body again.


    So, Ye Kehuan cleared her throat and suddenly stood to the left, performing a show of collecting demons.


    ¡°Ha, monster, where will you escape!¡± Ye Kehuan chanted a line in a voice that was so low that only she could hear herself. She squinted her eyes and cooperating with her hand movements, she acted very well.


    After that, Ye Kehuan flashed to the right, raising her hand to cover her face: ¡°Ahhhh! Please, stay your hand, just forgive me this time!¡±


    Finally, Ye Kehuan jumped back to the left, raised her left hand and left it hanging in the air, then raised her right hand to her mouth, and squinted her eyes: ¡°No need to say more! Since you¡¯ve come to my doorstep, there¡¯s no need to leave!¡±


    However, what she didn¡¯t know was that there was also a small camera hidden in the exaggerated decals of green leaves on the mirror. After Ye Kehuan got closer to the mirror, the camera turned and made a slight noise. Ye Kehuan was also surprised.


    In other words, the poses she just made had actually been photographed¡­


    In an instant, Ye Kehuan blushed scarlet and pulled the camera out: ¡°They¡¯re too treacherous, there is a camera here that I hadn¡¯t found before¡­¡±


    Finally, Ye Kehuan snapped her fingers and leaned closer to the camera: ¡°Brother Editor, let¡¯s talk. Please help me cut out the series of activities I performed here! Please!¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan felt as though she had collapsed. She pulled down the various towels covering the cameras in all directions and put them away neatly. Then she opened the bathroom door and walked out.


    ¡°You¡¯re finished?¡± After seeing her coming out, Jiang Laien actively raised her head and asked.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded after unscrewing a bottle of mineral water and taking a sip.


    ¡°Then I will go in first.¡± Jiang Laien picked up a big shirt as she spoke, and then walked towards the bathroom.


    Ye Kehuan glanced at Jiang Laien¡¯s back, pursed her lips, then pushed open the door to the balcony, walked out, leaned on the railing, and looked into the distance.


    The local city at night seemed to be quiet, and the cool breeze was blowing in, revealing a bit of coziness and comfort. At the same time, it also sorted out all of her impetuousness from the day, such that people could see a kind of truth at that moment. It was a refreshing feeling.


    In the night sky, there were scattered stars all over, making her dazed.


    At this moment, there was a click in the room and the bathroom door opened.


    So Ye Kehuan also turned around and walked in. She saw Jiang Laien wearing a loose-fitting shirt with fluffy hair, and she was rolling up her sleeves little by little at that time. Perhaps because she shirt was too big, she looked more petite on the whole.


    Ye Kehuan released the door frame and looked aside: ¡°Have you finished washing?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded gently.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Ye Kehuan asked again, ¡°Well, are you taking medicine?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien frowned slightly: ¡°Ah, I accidentally forgot.¡±


    After speaking, Jiang Laien turned around again and picked up the medicine bottle that had been laid out, ready to go back to the bathroom.


    ¡°Are you too hot right now?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien looked at the medicine bottle in her hand, and her red lips slightly opened: ¡°I hurt my back, so I need to take off some clothes.¡±


    Listening to this, Ye Kehuan¡¯s whole being was dumbfounded, her brain buzzed, and then she coughed: ¡°That¡¯s fine, just cover the cameras and pull the curtains.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and nodded.


    Then Ye Kehuan went to draw the curtains and covered the cameras very skillfully.


    When she turned back, she saw that Jiang Laien, who was sitting at the head of the bed, had already unbuttoned and pulled the collar of her clothes down her shoulders, revealing a little white skin which looked very delicate.


    Ye Kehuan glanced over there, her eyes falling on Jiang Laien¡¯s smooth calf, and some indescribable pictures suddenly flashed in her mind. She hurriedly turned her head, leaned against the table, and closed her eyes.


    But just as Ye Kehuan tried to calm her thoughts, she heard Jiang Laien softly hiss, not heavy or light, scratching at her heart like claws.


    Ye Kehuan hurriedly collected all her thoughts: ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°The place I fell on is too far back and it¡¯s not easy to wipe. I couldn¡¯t determine the severity of it from the start.¡± Jiang Laien said softly.


    ¡°Then,¡± Ye Kehuan opened her eyes and gulped, ¡°what to do?¡±


    ¡°Can you rub it on for me?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was so soft, as if she could pinch water out.


    Ye Kehuan just listened to her question, and she felt as if it reverberated in her bones, and something seemed to be moving deep in her heart¡­

 CH 14

    ¡°Okay¡­¡± After a long time, Ye Kehuan finally responded.


    After responding, Ye Kehuan lowered her head and coughed, let out a deep sigh, and walked towards Jiang Laien, picked up the small medicine bottle, and held it in her hand: ¡°This is it? Just wipe this on?¡±


    ¡°Yes. A friend brought it back for me earlier, and the effect is very good. You know it¡¯s easy to bump into something on the set. With it, you don¡¯t have to go to the hospital for everything, big or small. Next time we talk, I¡¯ll tell her to bring a few for you, too.¡± Jiang Laien said, pulling on the hem of her shirt lightly..


    Ye Kehuan nodded after listening, ¡°Thanks.¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan pulled the strands of Jiang Laien¡¯s hair aside. Under the light, Jiang Laien¡¯s skin was as white as porcelain with a fine texture.


    Ye Kehuan looked a little lost, and then she lowered her head to squeeze the ointment into the palm of her hand and gently rubbed away.


    Jiang Laien tilted her head slightly. Seeing her drooping eyebrows and serious expression, a hint of warmth blossomed in her heart without her realizing it.


    Then, Ye Kehuan pressed the palm of her hand with the medicine to the bluish-purple area on her skin. After noticing Jiang Laien¡¯s body trembling, Ye Kehuan immediately asked, ¡°Does it hurt?¡±


    Jiang Laien bit her lower lip and shook her head.


    ¡°Be patient.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her for a while, and then waited for Jiang Laien to arrange her clothes before tearing off the clothes covering the cameras.


    ¡°Well,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then looked at her for a moment, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°What thank you, it¡¯s just a bit of effort¡­¡± Ye Kehuan played with the clothes in her hands.


    ¡°I¡¯m not talking about this.¡± Jiang Laien looked up at her.


    ¡°Then what?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned.


    ¡°Thank you for protecting me in the horror room.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    Ye Kehuan had a problem, which was, sometimes she couldn¡¯t listen to Jiang Laien¡¯s praise for her. As soon as Jiang Laien praised her, she would squirm.


    So Ye Kehuan twisted her head for a long time, then scratched her head and said, ¡°That¡¯s because¡­ I was close to you, so I¡¯ll just go¡­ and take a look.¡±


    ¡°Is that so?¡± Jiang Laien laughed.


    ¡°What are you laughing at¡­¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her.


    ¡°Thank you also for taking all the important tasks on yourself when you were cooking tonight, but leaving some light ones for me.¡± Jiang Laien smiled sweetly.


    ¡°Me?¡± Ye Kehuan said reflexively. ¡°When did I¡­¡±


    ¡°You did it.¡± Jiang Laien tilted her head.


    At this moment, the cameras in the room swept around, aiming at Ye Kehuan and shooting wildly.


    ¡°Wait, don¡¯t take that!¡± Ye Kehuan waved her hand frantically at the camera with a heated face.


    However, the camera shook and took all the pictures of her it wanted.


    So, Ye Kehuan once again covered them all like a robber: ¡°I let you shoot, I¡¯ll let you shoot alright. Shoot, shoot, continue, it¡¯s already, hahahahaha¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien sat on her bed, looked at Ye Kehuan with a gentle smile, and let out a deep sigh of relief. This was the person she liked, and she was still so familiar. Now if only she liked her back, that would be perfect.


    After a while, the time had become a little late, so Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien lay down to sleep.


    But, before going to bed, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help picking up her mobile phone and tapping Weibo. After all, she was an internet addicted girl.


    On the Internet, most people still laughed at her. In fact, things would always turn out like that, a fact which was really inseparable from her company. Because her parents were always trying to prevent her from entering the entertainment industry, and her age was indeed a bit older, big companies didn¡¯t want her. In the end, only a small workshop, Xinghua Entertainment, took her.


    But that small workshop was very immature in all aspects, blindly trying to copy the way others had been able to use negative press for a positive reputation. For example, when she debuted in the company, they madly posted a draft saying that she was the most beautiful newcomer after XX, would crush everyone, and so on. For example, as soon as a teaser picture came out when she appeared in a drama, the actor in it happened to stare at her, so the company began to fabricate labels such as ¡°the male **** harvester¡± and put them on her body, saying that people were fascinated by her. In addition, her acting skills were not very good at the time, and over time, the audience became annoyed whenever they saw her.


    Scrolling around, Ye Kehuan went to Jiang Laien¡¯s Weibo. She saw Jiang Laien and a very pure-looking actress Qi Li were very close, and they would either get together or take a group photo during festivals.


    Including, during the Dragon Boat Festival, Jiang Laien sent a photo of her holding Qi Li¡¯s face, with the text: ¡°Last night we talked about the various things we have experienced from our acquaintances from past ¡®till present. I want to sigh, thank God for letting me know her. I really like her, she is cute and pure, beautiful and kind, and most importantly, she is so sweet.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan saw that, she was stunned for a second, then clicked on Qi Li¡¯s Weibo and started scrutinizing.


    Qi Li was an A-list actress, she liked to let her hair down and wear dresses, so there were many pictures of Jiugongge, which looked really sweet.


    Does Jiang Laien like to be friends with such a sweetheart now? Inexplicably, Ye Kehuan felt sour.


    The next day.


    Since they were going to the second stop in Wulan (žõÌm¿h) to film the show in the afternoon, everyone was free for half a day in the morning, so they were ready to go out shopping. After all, they hadn¡¯t been shopping for souvenirs since they came there.


    Later, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what she was going crazy with. She originally took out a big comfortable shirt and prepared to put it on, but in the end the big comfortable shirt was still stuffed back into the suitcase by her, and she took out another one instead. She put on a puffy and light floral skirt and a little makeup.


    Just when Ye Kehuan was turning red, Jiang Laien entered the room. The moment she entered the room, Jiang Laien was stunned for a while after seeing Ye Kehuan, and finally lifted her hair, and said, ¡°You¡­ Dressing like this, I almost can¡¯t recognize you anymore.¡±


    Then Ye Kehuan remembered, whether it was past or present, she was the kind of person with a slightly careless and casual style. Even before Ye Kehuan debuted, she said that things like skirts were inconvenient to wear, and she would never wear such things in her life.


    ¡°Oh, um, actually¡­¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand holding the lipstick and her eyebrows, ¡°in private, I really like to wear clothes like this.¡±


    Jiang Laien still felt that she was under a little shock, but smiled anyway: ¡°It¡¯s good to try more new styles. Sister Liu Yun has already cooked breakfast. Come down when you are done, and then we will leave after we finish eating.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan put on lipstick and nodded.


    When Jiang Laien walked to the door, she looked sideways at her again, and suddenly felt that maybe time had really changed a lot of things.


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien lowered her eyes slightly and continued to walk forward.


    Because Ye Kehuan changed her usual look today, the men looked a little silly. However, Ye Kehuan had been paying attention to Jiang Laien¡¯s reaction.


    Paying attention to Jiang Laien¡¯s reaction when the meal was served, and also paying attention during the small talk while eating, but it seemed that Jiang Laien did not have any strange reaction; it was the same as usual.


    However, she didn¡¯t know if it was due to psychological effects, Ye Kehuan always felt that after changing into those clothes, her behavior was more elegant, not as rash and careless as before. She even had the illusion that she was descending from the heavens.


    After breakfast, the group set off.


    As the weather was very hot that day, even though it was only midday at the time, the entire Ben Thanh was completely bleached by the sun.


    Ye Kehuan wore straw sandals and walked with everyone on the wide street. At first glance, she looked like a beautiful fairy.


    ¡°Oh, my wallet!¡± At this moment, Liu Yun touched her bag, her expression turning solemn, and everyone immediately turned their heads and looked over.


    ¡°Gone?¡± Ye Kehuan asked immediately.


    ¡°Well, it was there just now¡­¡± Liu Yun frowned.


    So Ye Kehuan raised her head, looked around, and finally saw a gray old man running wildly.


    ¡°Stop!¡± So, in the next second, Ye Kehuan suddenly grabbed the hem of her skirt like a lady among ladies, and chased after him wildly.


    Two or three minutes later, Ye Kehuan, who was chasing the person, stretched out her leg and knocked the thief directly to the ground, and sat on his disheveled form: ¡°You! Return the bag!¡±


    Immediately, all the members of the program group present swallowed saliva.


    At the same time, Ye Kehuan heard a child holding her mother¡¯s hand not far away and saying in a childish voice: ¡°Mom, mommy, look at that sister, doesn¡¯t she look like Tarzan?¡±


    Ye Kehuan: ¡­..

 CH 15

    After hearing that sentence, Ye Kehuan fiddled with a handful of the hair scattered around her face. Her cheeks and ears were faintly hot, and then she didn¡¯t care about anything else, so she handed the overpowered thief to the program team and reported after. The team eventually handed the thief into the hands of a policeman, and that was the end.1


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s good to be happy!¡± After Liu Yun took the lost wallet from Ye Kehuan, she happily clutched it to her heart.


    Before participating on the show, she was almost led astray by the gossip about Ye Kehuan on the Internet, but since participating on it, she had discovered that she really liked the girl more and more. That kind of excitement and love was really indescribable.


    ¡°Look to see if there is anything missing from it.¡± Ye Kehuan scratched her head.


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Liu Yun nodded and opened the bag.


    ¡°Sister Kehuan is really amazing!¡± Bai Wei also trotted over and stood beside Ye Kehuan, smiling innocently.


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she kept smiling awkwardly: ¡°It¡¯s nothing much.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan deliberately or unconsciously looked for the shadow of Jiang Laien.


    However, after a while, she did not see her. Turning her head, Ye Kehuan fiddled with a mermaid tear shell necklace in a small shop, then took it out, held it in her palm, looked left and right for a while, and couldn¡¯t help but raise her lips.


    I still remember that year when I went to the beach with Jiang Laien and saw someone selling mermaid tear shell necklaces. Jiang Laien liked it very much at the time, but both she and I forgot to bring money.


    So, she hurried back to look for money, and when she returned to the beach, she found that the necklace was gone. For that reason, Jiang Laien was always thinking about it for a while, feeling deep regret. And, they had never seen such a beautiful shell necklace again.


    Today, she found one.


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan took out the necklace and went to the cashier to check out.


    ¡°Thank you for your patronage.¡± The cashier said with a smile.


    Ye Kehuan smiled and shook her head, then carefully put it into her bag.


    ¡°Kehuan.¡±


    At this moment, Ye Kehuan heard the voice of Jiang Laien behind her.


    Therefore, Ye Kehuan was stunned for a moment, then turned around after a moment and looked at Jiang Laien. Just when she was about to speak, Jiang Laien stretched out a slender hand and handed a glass of passion fruit juice to her.


    ¡°See you are all sweaty, I just went to buy some drinks.¡± Jiang Laien smiled softly, with two small pear-shaped dimples on both sides of her lips, which looked very sweet.


    ¡°Ah, thank you.¡± Ye Kehuan took the drink immediately, opened the plastic cover, and pinched it in her hand.


    Upon closer inspection, there was a small white label on the top of the cup with the words ¡°Freshly Squeezed Passion Juice¡± written on it. There were ice cubes inside, so there was a layer of fine water droplets on the outside of the cup, which was a bit cooling.


    Ye Kehuan held the cup of passion fruit juice for a few seconds.


    This is one of my favorite juices. I love it as much as pop pearl milk tea. From junior high school to now, she had loved it very much, because she really liked the sweet and sour taste. Every summer, there were countless passion fruits that died in her mouth.


    So, did Jiang Laien remember her little preferences?


    Putting in a straw and drinking a sip of juice, Ye Kehuan raised her head, her eyes following Jiang Laien, who was smiling at this moment and giving everyone a variety of drinks. She inexplicably felt that the drink that day had almost no sour taste; it was completely sweet¡­


    Ye Kehuan decided not to eat Qi Li¡¯s dog food today.2


    After going out, everyone walked around, and after another lunch, they boarded the plane together in the afternoon and set off for the next stop: Wulan City.


    When Ye Kehuan and the others arrived in Wulan City, it was already night. The sky was dark, but there was still an idle glow floating in the sky, and the whole city looked very beautiful.


    After putting down their luggage in a bamboo house with broad banana leaves growing in all directions, the group walked towards the night market with a smile.


    The supper market in Wulan City was said to be a must-see. Other places may just be a street for snacks, but there, it occupied a lot of space up, down, left, and right. Every night at 7 o¡¯clock, the stall owners would start. The stalls gradually spread, and the fragrance with it, hindering the hurried pace of passers-by.


    ¡°I¡¯m hungry.¡± Bai Wei mumbled after not much time.


    ¡°Me too. Then, let¡¯s find a place to sit down and eat a little bit.¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but touch her flat stomach.


    ¡°Then shall we eat barbecue? The night market seems to be mainly barbecue.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at the stalls on the left and right.


    Zhou Junyi glanced at Ye Kehuan, who had spoken out the lines he had prepared first, and finally squeezed his fists before swallowing again when he wanted to say.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s have a barbecue. How about this one?¡± Liu Yun said, pointing to a barbecue stall nearby.


    The stall owner hadn¡¯t waited for them to make a decision, he was already yelling: ¡°The Cuan family is the best, our family is the best! Don¡¯t look to that greedy screaming baby to the west! Look at this fish and see the meat, in one bite you¡¯ll know we can¡¯t be beat!¡±3


    ¡°It¡¯s pretty rhyming.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at him happily for a while, then turned to everyone. ¡°Then, let¡¯s eat at this restaurant.¡±


    So everyone made a decision right away. Some people put together a table at the back, while others went to the stall to choose dishes.


    I have to say that the barbecue stall here is really willing to use ingredients, which is completely different from the practice of stringing a leg for a few cubes of meat on a thin stick in many cities. Here he¡¯s using a few big bamboo sticks to affix a **** octopus together.


    After ordering the food, the stall owner began to cook, so everyone went back and took a seat, but Ye Kehuan was still standing by and holding her arms while watching.


    Although the oil fumes were a big heavy and choking her nose and eyes, Ye Kehuan still enjoyed seeing the raw ingredients being cooked. Especially the meat, after being roasted for a while, some oil would come out from inside, and it would look charred and delicious. At that time, if you brushed on some sauce, you would feel that your taste buds had been slaughtered like chickens.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t you sit down and wait?¡± Just as Ye Kehuan was watching the stall owner making the barbecue, a voice suddenly came out from behind her.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback, released her arms hurriedly, and looked at the sound source.


    She saw Jiang Laien, who was wearing a light blue suspender dress, standing next to her at the moment. She had glistening skin, and just looked too good-looking.


    ¡°I, see how he cooks it.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished stammering, she gently pressed her lips.


    ¡°But it¡¯s very hot here. Do you want to sit over there?¡± Jiang Laien smiled, raised her hand, and pointed to everyone behind the stall owner who was waving at them frantically.


    So Ye Kehuan finally nodded, and walked over with Jiang Laien.


    Seeing Jiang Laien¡¯s beautiful hair on her back, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but feel a little lost.


    After sitting down, it didn¡¯t take long for the barbecue to be cooked and served. There was a leaf on the plate, but she didn¡¯t know what it was.


    ¡°Great, I can¡¯t wait to taste it!¡± Bai Wei said, and immediately picked up a roasted oyster, but she looked near-death after eating it, and kept fanning her mouth. ¡°It¡¯s delicious, it¡¯s just a bit spicy!¡±


    ¡°This kid,¡± Liu Yun glanced at her, and handed over a glass of beer. ¡°Drink this to relieve the heat.¡±


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Bai Wei nodded, and continued to stick out her tongue, ¡°but it¡¯s really delicious. I think it¡¯s pretty spicy; I suggest you try it!¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien swallowed her saliva, and finally picked up one and ate it.


    ¡°Right?¡± Bai Wei asked.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Jiang Laien chewed, and was a little speechless for a while. Sweat faintly formed on her temples. ¡°But it¡¯s really delicious.¡±


    ¡°Hurry up, have a drink!¡± Liu Yun was stunned, and immediately poured her a glass of beer.


    ¡°No, no, she can¡¯t drink this.¡± Ye Kehuan turned to look at the stall owner at this moment. ¡°Boss, do you have any drinks here?¡±


    Jiang Laien raised her head and quietly looked at Ye Kehuan sideways.


    ¡°Yes! Coconut milk, Coke, Sprite, Wanglaoji, which one do you want?¡± The stall owner turned around.


    ¡°Sprite!¡± Ye Kehuan helped Jiang Laien choose without hesitation.


    Jiang Laien pursed her lips and smiled slightly when she heard this. It turned out that Ye Kehuan still remembered that she loved to drink this.


    Then Ye Kehuan got up and went to the side of the stall again, babbling a lot to the boss, and then came back again.


    ¡°Order again?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan rubbed her nose: ¡°What else, can¡¯t you not eat spicy foods?¡± I will let him make another dozen without adding the spice.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien tilted her head slightly: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°Ah, I¡¯m dying! Is it really good to be so spoiled?!¡± At this moment, a scream from Bai Wei broke the atmosphere.


    ¡°I, where am I doing that?! If you talk more nonsense, I will eat up your oysters!¡± Ye Kehuan blushed.


    In the blink of an eye, everyone was full of food and drink, so they took a walk to the residence as a means of digestion.


    As a result, something seemed off while walking. The wind was also blowing loudly.


    Sure enough, it didn¡¯t take long for it to rain. Their luck was absolutely absent. It rarely rained there, but they still got hit.


    ¡°Everyone, have you brought an umbrella?¡± Wen Xian asked.


    Jiang Laien said helplessly: ¡°No, the bag I brought is too small¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± At this time, Zhou Junyi finally aimed for an opportunity, took out an umbrella, and prepared to come like a hero from the United States.4


    But at this moment, Ye Kehuan stopped next to Jiang Laien and put her umbrella above her head to block the crackling rain.


    Jiang Laien froze for a second, then looked sideways at her: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    Water droplets fell on the umbrella cloth as Ye Kehuan met her gaze, and for a while, she felt that everything around them was separated from them, and then shook her head: ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡±


    At this moment, a truck came rushing, and Ye Kehuan saw it, so she immediately stretched out her free arm, took Jiang Laien¡¯s small arm, and pulled her to the side to hide.


    After that, Ye Kehuan hurriedly asked, ¡°Are you alright?¡±


    Hearing this, Jiang Laien slowly raised her eyes under the umbrella and shook her head: ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡±


    She didn¡¯t know what kind of spell it was. Maybe they were just too close, but she could feel the heat from Jiang Laien so closely. Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien and felt that her heart was beating a little faster.


    The author has something to say: I have not eaten dinner yet. I am hungry¡­

 CH 16

    Not long after returning to the residence, the rain stopped. It had only fallen for a while, as if it was deliberately messing with them.


    Because she was too lazy to allocate more rooms, Liu Yun suggested: ¡°Let¡¯s follow the previous allocation from Bincheng, and we won¡¯t change roommates. What do you think?¡±


    Maybe it was because everyone was easy-going, or maybe it was because they got along better now, but the big guys nodded one after another and said it was okay.


    Compared with the previous ones, the place where they were staying this time seemed to be much simpler. It was a bamboo house, but both the exterior and interior layout looked quite unique, and even smelled faintly scented.


    Ye Kehuan slept quite well that night.


    The next day, when Ye Kehuan got up, she thought about it for a long time, but she changed into what she was accustomed to wearing: an old-style white t-shirt and hot pants with holes.


    After changing clothes, she went to the living room to drink a bowl of porridge with mustard, plus two or three steamed buns. Ye Kehuan then put down her chopsticks and stared at the two remaining buns on the table.


    The steamed buns were really delicious. They were steamed under a pine needle mat, which gave them a delicate fragrance, had thin skin and a lot of stuffing, the right amount of fatness and thinness. After a bite, you would be left full of happiness and endless aftertaste.


    ¡°Huanhuan, do you still want to eat?¡± Liu Yun asked intimately when she took the plate.


    After Ye Kehuan came back to her senses, she waved her hand: ¡°No, no, I¡¯m a star, I want to stay in shape.¡±


    ¡°Oh, well, it¡¯s really hard to be a star.¡± Liu Yun sighed.


    ¡°I¡¯ll help clean up.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily, then stood up and picked up the plates with Liu Yun.


    However, after returning to the kitchen with the remaining plate of buns and mustard greens, Ye Kehuan stared at the buns for a long time, and finally couldn¡¯t hold back, picking up the remaining buns and putting them in front of her. ¡°Just a few more bites. No, just one. I just need to run a little more at night.¡±


    After talking to herself, Ye Kehuan tilted her head and bit down. After eating Ye Kehuan wiped her mouth, and then her eyes were firmly grasped by the other bun.


    After a fierce ideological struggle in her mind, Ye Kehuan grabbed it: ¡°It¡¯s fine, I just ate them all. Not one more, and not one less.¡±


    After eating both of the two buns, Ye Kehuan smiled contentedly, feeling that she was completely awake today.


    After breakfast, the program team took everyone to visit the Botanical Garden in Wulan City.


    After everyone entered the house with mineral water and tickets, Bai Wei took out the SC camera and began to snap pictures.


    Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan followed closely, and took pictures of all directions with their mobile phones.


    After walking around and admiring everything, everyone¡¯s feet were a little tired. In addition, the weather was hot, and it was almost time to eat again. Therefore, a crowd of people came out of the scenic spot and reached ¡°Shixiang Street¡± and went into a small alley. They walked to a restaurant called ¡°Chunjiang Huayueye¡± and stopped.


    After entering, a cobblestone path unfolded in front of you, and it took a while to formally enter the restaurant. There was a counter at the entrance, and a thin and tan-looking woman was next to an open ledger, quickly tapping on a calculator.


    ¡°Hello!¡± Ye Kehuan bowed to her after entering.


    After listening, the boss raised her head to look at them, and then smiled: ¡°Hello, hello, hello everyone. Want to eat? Then come with me first.¡±


    After speaking, the boss came out from the counter and led everyone towards a wooden staircase. The wooden stairs looked a bit old, and there were some vines around them, which was strangely beautiful.


    After the group went up, they picked a place by the window and sat down, only to find that the top was also beautiful and tight, with flowers and dried flowers decorating the surroundings at the same time, and the little sophistication revealed a lazy retro feeling.


    In the end, the few people ordered beef in sour soup, crispy pork belly, wild mushroom soup, secret sauced beef, big bon choi, dried tangerine duck, and Chunjiang fish soup.


    After half an hour, the dishes were served one after another.


    The skin of the crispy pork belly was charred, just the right thickness, and it was not greasy and smelly after the first bite; the fresh fragrance of the wild mushroom soup was completely brought out, and it was delicious when drinking with the pork belly¡­


    Very quickly, the big guys ate the dishes on the big table to the bones.


    Ye Kehuan checked her Weibo while listening to them chatting, the flipped through her photo album, posted the photos she had taken to Weibo, and typed: ¡°Good day!¡±


    As a result, a few minutes later, Ye Kehuan fell into silence as soon as she scrolled through the comments.


    Netizen 1: ¡°Unbelievable, this bad angle¡­ terrible, isn¡¯t it?


    Netizen 2: ¡°...Sister Ye, how hard would it be to post your next photos with a filter?¡±


    ¡­


    However, in the next second, Jiang Laien gave Ye Kehuan a thumbs up. The second after that, Weibo was reminded by the star Jiang Laien to pay attention to her. For that second, Ye Kehuan was shocked.


    Soon after, Ye Kehuan¡¯s Weibo was reposted by Jiang Laien: ¡°Because of you, it is twice as beautiful.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan saw that, she looked up at Jiang Laien inconceivably, and saw Jiang Laien put her phone aside, pick up her drink and have a sip, all with a calm smile on her face.


    After a minute of confusion, Ye Kehuan hurriedly returned to pay attention. Then, after typing and deleting for a long time under the Weibo reposted by Jiang Laien, she finally sent the word: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Looking back, Ye Kehuan found that the amount of likes and comments on her Weibo had shown explosive growth, as did Jiang Laien.


    There were conspiracy theories that this is for the effect of the show, and some people said that Jiang Laien must be too pure and na?ve, so she was deceived by Ye Kehuan, and they persuaded Jiang Laien to stay away from her so as not to get close to the ink, and some people clamored to be right, that Jiang Laien was a sellout.


    However, some people started to think about something: Jiang Laien was not the only one who said Ye Kehuan was good. Bai Wei had also boasted before, and Liu Yun also liked her. Moreover, the stars were far away from the audience, who knew their true colors? Ye Kehuan was a bit cute because she couldn¡¯t use filters!


    Soon after, everyone began to wonder what kind of person Ye Kehuan really was.


    [Suddenly looking forward to the show starting.]


    [When will this show be broadcast? I must be the first to watch it!]


    Among the public, such calls had gradually become louder.


    ¡­


    ¡°Hmph, when the show starts, you will know that I haven¡¯t said half a word of a lie!¡± At this moment, Bai Wei, who was also on Weibo next to her, murmured.


    ¡°Yes!¡± Liu Yun also nodded.


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening. Jiang Laien was right, the best part of the show was meeting everyone.


    In the blink of an eye, day turned to evening, and after eating, Ye Kehuan saw a mission card on the coffee table as soon as the group returned to their residence.


    So Ye Kehuan picked it up, and after looking at it twice, she yelled, ¡°Sister Yun, mission card!¡±


    The old rule was that Liu Yun was supposed to look at the task first. So, Liu Yun, *dengdengdeng* ran over to take the task card.


    ¡°Our rules have changed for this stop.¡± Liu Yun said after reading it.


    ¡°Ah? What¡¯s the change?¡± Bai Wei walked over and asked from behind.


    Liu Yun cleared her throat, and said, ¡°Dear members of ¡°The Food is Ready¡±, tomorrow you will have a whole day to prepare for the game, and then at 7 o¡¯clock in the evening, you will be selling at the midnight snack market in Wulan for a long time. For this three-hour barbecue supper, the ingredients will be prepared by the program team in advance (you can also prepare some yourself!). After the time is up, the stall which sells the most barbecue will be the champion!¡±


    ¡°In other words, we are selling midnight snacks this time. Whose stall sells the most and whose customers buy the most, determines the winner?¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly.


    ¡°I think it¡¯s good, and cooking skewers--feels like it¡¯s not too difficult.¡± At this time, Zhao Qi rubbed his hands and smiled like a crescent moon.


    ¡°Well, I also think this time I have a chance to win!¡± Bai Wei cupped her face with both hands.


    Ye Kehuan laughed but said nothing.


    Barbecuing, it sounded like it was really simple, but especially in this age, who doesn¡¯t have a microwave or something, how many people had never grilled a piece of meat? But if you did get into it, you would find there are many winding doorways inside.


    ¡°Are you going to wash and sleep? I guess we have a big day tomorrow.¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien asked next to Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°It¡¯s not too late. I want to go out and run a few laps before washing. Today I ate a little bit. I can¡¯t get fat after filming, then no one would come to me for more films. I don¡¯t have other resources.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Then I will go with you.¡± Jiang Laien walked towards the door as she spoke.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a moment, and then walked over.


    Even at night, the city of Wulan was still so hot. They were jogging the whole time, and it didn¡¯t take long for them to sweat. During this period, the two of them almost didn¡¯t speak at all, but Ye Kehuan felt a sense of peace of mind inexplicably.


    Eventually, the two stopped, and Ye Kehuan asked Jiang Laien: ¡°You liked and reposted, then followed me today. Are you not afraid of being smeared?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°A long time ago, someone told me that I should live as I want, and not care about others¡¯ opinions. I think it¡¯s quite right.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled softly after listening. Yes, I did say this to her before.


    ¡°Are you tired from running?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    After listening, Jiang Laien stopped, raised a hand to fan the wind beside her cheek, and shook her head: ¡°It¡¯s okay. But the road is quite dark.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, are you afraid?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    Jiang Laien tilted her head to think for a moment, then shook her head: ¡°Not afraid.¡±


    ¡°Why?¡± Ye Kehuan paced slowly.


    ¡°Hmm¡­¡± Jiang Laien held her hand gently on her chin. ¡°Maybe, probably, it¡¯s because you are by my side.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard Jiang Laien¡¯s words, her heart was stunned, and there was a heat rushing to the roof of her eyes, so she switched the topic: ¡°It¡¯s really hot here.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I suddenly wanted to go swimming. I really want to go swimming when I finish my work. It¡¯s a pity that I swim too badly and I¡¯m afraid.¡± Jiang Laien sighed.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, swim as long as you want, I¡¯ll watch you.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile. ¡°Such a big deal, let¡¯s buy a wreath and put it on!¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, the corners of her mouth gradually twitched: ¡°A flower wreath?¡±


    Start preparing for a funeral now?


    Ye Kehuan was also dumbfounded for a while, and choked: ¡°No, swimming¡­¡±

 CH 17

    ¡°Swimming, swimming laps.¡± In the end, Ye Kehuan still said those two words.


    Jiang Laien finally let go of her anxiety after listening, and smiled: ¡°Okay, I heard that there is a water park here that is pretty good and fun. We can go there.¡±


    ¡°Good.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    Then Jiang Laien frowned slightly: ¡°However, I found one problem. I didn¡¯t bring a swimsuit.¡±


    ¡°Then we can buy one when the time comes, and we can tell the others when we finish the challenge.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    When Jiang Laien heard this, she smiled and nodded, and then raised two small pear-shaped dimples: ¡°Let¡¯s do our best tomorrow!¡±


    ¡°Yes, let¡¯s win together!¡± Ye Kehuan squeezed her hand in front of her, looking like an energetic young girl.


    Jiang Laien wiped the hair on her forehead, turned her head to look at her, and there was an uncontrollable smile on the corners of her lips.


    Early the next morning, after the celebrities received the ingredients allocated by the program group, some people became confused again.


    Probably because there were too many ingredients, everyone became a little at a loss in an instant. Just the division of labor would require a lot of planning.


    However, Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan¡¯s cooperation in preparing dishes was rather harmonious.


    You peel and chop garlic, you peel and chop green onions, and you cut me skewers for vegetables. It was very efficient. Basically, the morning passed and no one had made a mistake, and all the ingredients provided by the show were cut up.


    At noon, after the preparations were almost completed, the two of them sat down and picked up the boxed lunches that the program crew had brought from nowhere. They sat next to the bunch of skewers.


    The quality of the box lunch did not seem to be particularly high. It was just a little different from the previous good fish and good meat. The rice was a bit too soft. The rice grains were sticking to each other. It was tufty and wet. There was very little meat in the chili-fried pork. Most of it was green peppers, and the rest was seaweed egg drop soup.


    ¡°The configuration for today¡¯s lunch is quite odd.¡± Jiang Laien grabbed a piece of pork and looked at it. ¡°It¡¯s just that the pepper seems to be a bit¡­ too much¡­ not many pieces of meat¡­¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan coughed. Then she picked up her chopsticks and put the chili into her bowl. She ate a big bite of white rice and nodded as she ate: ¡°This chili is so fragrant, it¡¯s so delicious!¡±


    Jiang Laien was dumbfounded after listening.


    So Ye Kehuan swallowed what was on her chopsticks, and then picked out all the shredded pork inside and put it in Jiang Laien¡¯s bowl: ¡°I¡¯ll give you all the meat!¡±


    ¡°Wait, you don¡¯t want any meat?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan pursed her lips and nodded, staring at the dish steadily, and continued to stuff the meat into Jiang Laien¡¯s bowl,¡± I don¡¯t like meat. I like peppers, they¡¯re delicious and refreshing. It¡¯s so flavorful!¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien raised her eyes to look at her, and a slight smile appeared in her eyes.


    After that, the two continued to eat. However, Ye Kehuan only ate a few chopsticks, so it was a little dysfunctional. She could really eat spicy food, and she had always been hailed as the king of the pepper world by people around her. But the chili there seemed to come from hell, and she found she had been dethroned.


    So, as she ate, Ye Kehuan¡¯s ears, nose, and eyes gradually turned red.


    In the end, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help it. She put down the box and rushed to the bathroom.


    ¡°Kehuan?!¡± Jiang Laien also hurriedly stood up.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. I¡¯m just too hot, so I want to wash my face!¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice came from inside.


    Jiang Laien was stunned, looked down at the box lunch in front of her, sighed, and smiled slightly.


    Then, Jiang Laien picked up her mobile phone, took a photo of the food on the table, and then sent a Weibo: ¡°@YeKehuan is absolutely adorable. Because she knows that I love meat and not peppers, she picked all the meat, and then, her side was full of green peppers, my side was full of meat, and she found it so spicy that she kept coughing¡­Really a fool!¡±


    As soon as the Weibo was released, fans once again were stunned with surprise.


    [Fuck, why is it a little sweet?!]


    [I admire¡­ this love¡­ hum hum¡­]


    [Sisters, dbq, I have turned my back. I said a few days ago that I didn¡¯t want to watch this show, but now I really want to watch it. What happened? ? ? Itchy!]


    ¡­


    After seeing everyone¡¯s comments, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but smile, and then put Ye Kehuan¡¯s box of lunch aside, then got up and went outside to buy another lunch that was not spicy.


    On the other side, Ye Kehuan finished washing her face, then stuck her face in front of the air conditioner for a while, barely expelling the spicy feeling, and then walked out again.


    However, as soon as Ye Kehuan came out, she found that Jiang Laien had disappeared.


    So Ye Kehuan went back and forth for a while. In the end, Ye Kehuan still decided to call Jiang Laien.


    As soon as she picked up her phone, Ye Kehuan saw the Weibo notification.


    Stunned, Ye Kehuan was stunned there. After clicking to open, Ye Kehuan swiped through the comments and laughed inexplicably.


    Some people were saying it looks like love.


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan patted her face again. What are you thinking about? Weird¡­


    At that time, Jiang Laien came back from the outside carrying a bag of things.


    Ye Kehuan immediately shut down the screen of her phone, looked up and asked, ¡°Where have you been? I was planning to go find you.¡±


    ¡°I went to buy lunch. You¡¯re so stupid. You can¡¯t eat stuff that spicy but you still wolfed it down.¡± Jiang Laien gave her some scorn.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan reached out and touched her head: ¡°I¡¯m not stupid¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled without saying a word, but stretched out her hand to open the bag, and then opened the packed box. She saw neatly packed dumplings inside, and the fillings could be vaguely seen through the skin. Just looking at them this way made people think they must be delicious.


    ¡°Steamed dumplings?!¡± Ye Kehuan swallowed. This was her favorite.


    ¡°Yes, you try to see if it suits your appetite.¡± Jiang Laien handed her a pair of chopsticks, and then opened a small box of vinegar sauce.


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she couldn¡¯t wait and picked up a dumpling and dumped it in vinegar, then put it in her mouth to chew, and then immediately raised a thumbs up.


    ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Jiang Laien smiled with bright eyes, and then she picked up a dumpling and tasted it slowly.


    After eating most of the dumplings, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at the bright white sun outside, and then said: ¡°I¡¯m going to the market this afternoon to buy some fish.¡±


    ¡°The kind of slap-sized fish?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, ¡°I saw everyone grilling it in the night market. I feel that it is also a major feature here, but the program group did not provide it.¡±


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go together later.¡± Jiang Laien took another bite of dumpling as she spoke.


    ¡°You can¡¯t do it, I can go by myself,¡± Ye Kehuan drank some ice water, ¡°It¡¯s too hot outside, don¡¯t go out.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, she replied: ¡°Do you care about me so much?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second, then coughed: ¡°Then we¡¯ll go together, but you, put on sunscreen!¡±


    Jiang Laien was also happy and nodded: ¡°Okay.¡±


    In the blink of an eye, after the two of them did their sun protection work, they got onto an electric scooter and went out.


    Ye Kehuan sat in front, Jiang Laien was carried behind, and the wind was circling along the way, making the corners of her clothes fly around. The afternoon sun fell through the dense canopy of trees on both sides of the road, covering them with a layer of fine marks. It was pretty cozy.


    Something was hit by the electric scooter on the way, and the scooter jumped a little. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help tightening the hand around Ye Kehuan¡¯s waist. Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but stiffen, and then bit her lower lip. She continued to drive the electric scooter, pretending that nothing happened.


    After more than ten minutes, the two people arrived at the aquatic product market.


    The area of this aquatic product market was quite large, but the selection was not rich, and the overlap was quite high. Ye Kehuan had a good memory, and at a glance, she recognized the kind of fish suitable for barbecue. In addition, she bought some other things, so the two people¡¯s purchasing activities became very fast.


    As a result, the day was far from over. On the way back, their originally good battery suddenly broke and became unusable. In the end, the two of them had to get off the scooter halfway and stand under a big tree with helpless faces.


    ¡°What to do,¡± Jiang Laien swept her hair and took off some things, ¡°How far is it from here to our place?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan looked down at her phone: ¡°1.2km.¡±


    It¡¯s not too far. That is, if you don¡¯t mention things like the weather being so hot. They would melt on the walk back.


    At this time, a truck with a bunch of piglets ran over the road, and the dust was kicked up all over the sky. Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien both squinted their eyes and raised their hands to place them in front of them, coughing non-stop.


    ¡°It¡¯s too hot today,¡± Jiang Laien wiped the sweat from her forehead with her free hand, ¡°It will be easy to get a heat stroke.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s simply not something people can stand. Give me those.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she stretched out her hand to grab the things in Jiang Laien¡¯s hand.


    ¡°No, you are already carrying some, aren¡¯t you tired?¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance and moved the things behind her with a strong attitude.


    ¡°I¡¯m not tired, I¡¯m Tarzan!¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s attitude was tougher, and she brought the things over as she spoke.


    Jiang Laien: ¡­


    After walking for a while, a motor vehicle rumbled past them, and Jiang Laien looked sideways at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Or, let¡¯s try to get a Didi back, okay?¡±1


    ¡°What?¡± Under the interference of the rumbling of the vehicle, and the fact she was too hot, lacking energy, and was a little faint, Ye Kehuan did not hear Jiang Laien¡¯s voice too clearly, so she turned her head to look at her.


    ¡°I said,¡± Jiang Laien raised her hand to her lips and shouted at her, ¡°Would you like me to call someone?¡±


    At this moment, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her, and shouted back with empty eyes: ¡°I never called a chicken!¡±


    The author has something to say: crooked, anyone? !


    TL/N

 CH 18

    When Jiang Laien heard Ye Kehuan¡¯s words, at that moment, she realized she had no way to continue the conversation¡­


    In short, after a busy afternoon, finally, everyone ushered in the evening.


    It was a little more than six in the afternoon by the time the members of each group had completed their preparations. Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien looked at each other and nodded, and put all the meat skewers into their secret grilling sauce that they made in the afternoon. After it soaked for a while, they went to the supper market.


    Ye Kehuan was responsible for setting up all the stoves, while Jiang Laien was responsible for setting out the various skewers and keeping them flat. After a few minutes, their stall looked so stylish, as if they really depended on this business for food.


    ¡°Do I look like a great cook now?¡± Ye Kehuan asked with a smile.


    ¡°You are the chef.¡± Jiang Laien replied, not giving any face.


    Perhaps it was because of the star halo, but after they started selling, the barbecue stalls of the entire program crew were surrounded with lines, and everyone was rushing over to see if they could buy a skewer. Of course, among the various teams, Jiang Laien had the longest line. After all, she had the largest fame and the highest national rank.


    However, in the back, gradually, after the customers of the other teams had eaten once, they all left silently and slowly, until there were no long queues anymore. Only Ye Kehuan was going strong. After buying one or two skewers to try, those people came back to line up.


    When people from the show team went up to interview them and asked them why they came back, they basically said:


    ¡°Because it¡¯s delicious!¡±


    ¡°The skin of this pork belly is charred, and the meat is not greasy and smelly!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know what seasoning was used. The taste is different from others. It¡¯s so delicious. I¡¯m afraid there won¡¯t be another store after this village, so I have to buy more to eat!¡±


    ¡­


    In short, the business of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien¡¯s group was obviously more prosperous than other groups.


    Later, Ye Kehuan¡¯s skewers were all sold out and she was ready to back up before heading back, but there were still a lot of other groups left. Everyone looked at each other helplessly, and then looked at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien with real admiration. Although Zhou Junyi¡¯s group sold well, it was still miles away when compared to Ye Kehuan.


    In the end, the result was obvious. The eyes of the masses were sharp, and the championship was captured by Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien!


    Unbelievably, Ye Kehuan won the second challenge on the show in a row! Moreover, before that, everyone in the program group had not listed her as a strong enemy, and even thought that she should be the kind of person who can¡¯t distinguish between onions and garlic, so they did not expect that she would be such a dark horse. After the episode was recorded, the celebrities admired Ye Kehuan more and more.


    After winning the challenge, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien announced that the prize money for this competition would go to the same place as last time. They would donate it to Hope Primary School. After, they cleaned up the stall together while singing songs.


    After everyone returned to their residences and took a shower, Liu Yun¡¯s voice spread from the living room to all directions: ¡°Eat watermelon! Have you all washed yet? Come out and eat watermelon after washing!¡±


    After Ye Kehuan finished listening, she hurriedly tied her blow-dried hair, and then flashed out of the bathroom: ¡°Who am I hearing say that there is watermelon?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°Sister Yun is calling from below. Do you want to eat?¡±


    ¡°Yes, what about you?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°I want to eat too.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s go down now?¡± Ye Kehuan walked to the door and pointed out.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Afterwards, Ye Kehuan opened the door and ran out: ¡°Sister Yun, here I am!¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Liu Yun, who was sitting below, nodded slightly, still smiling.


    After everyone sat down, they began to exchange what they had learned that day.


    ¡°I thought it would be easier to barbecue, but I found out that I was thinking too lightly, and I had to cut a large piece of meat, wash it, marinate and roast it or something. After a single day, I can¡¯t straighten my waist.¡± Bai Wei said aggrievedly.


    ¡°The main reason is that the scale of today¡¯s project was really huge. Compared to the last, I cried a lot.¡± Ye Kehuan took a piece of watermelon, took a big bite, and gobbled it up.


    ¡°Yes, that¡¯s it. It¡¯s not just about cooking, it¡¯s about personal hard work. I was thinking, tomorrow we should find something to do and decompress.¡± Liu Yun now looked like she had been fired. The green cabbage leaves had completely lost their green and shiny energy from before, and had become withered and wilted in the pot.


    ¡°Yes, I agree. Otherwise, the next shooting will be impossible.¡± Wen Xian couldn¡¯t help but yawn slightly. ¡°But what should I do better¡­¡±


    After all, for people of their age, it was quite stressful.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second when she heard this, then looked at Jiang Laien, then looked at everyone else, and finally took a gulp and said: ¡°What do you think about swimming?¡±


    As soon as Ye Kehuan¡¯s proposal was put forward, everyone immediately nodded and clapped their hands: ¡°Yes, this is good. I think it is perfect. Not only can we move and stretch the whole body, but also cool down in this hot season!¡±


    After the proposal was accepted by everyone, everyone began to plan together where they would go swimming the next day. Because there were quite a lot of places to swim; there were open-air water parks and ordinary hotel-style swimming pools and even gymnasiums.


    In the end, in order to have the most fun, everyone still went to the water park with the most praise. Then, Ye Kehuan counted the people who were going to go and placed an online order to buy the tickets.


    The next day, after the celebrities got up early in the morning and finished eating, all the girls put on sunscreen and looked raring to go.


    Regarding Jiang Laien, she wore very refreshing clothes that day. Flat-bottomed off-white straw woven shoes with a straw woven bag, and a light blue skirt with a halter neck. Her image management was superb. She insisted she would say if anything was wrong with her back. Remember, there was a small bruise on her back from when it was hit last time. Although the color had become a lot lighter, it had not fully recovered.


    Ye Kehuan followed behind everyone and suddenly felt that life was beautiful.


    After that, Ye Kehuan cleared her throat again, and raised her phone gently in the air: ¡°I found several shops selling swimwear and swimming gear in this place on the Internet last night, suitable for all ages and genders. I¡¯ll take you to see them one by one now, okay?¡±


    ¡°Good!¡± Bai Wei applauded.


    ¡°This kid is reliable in doing things,¡± Liu Yun still praised Ye Kehuan. ¡°She is really thoughtful to think about things like this, and she does it in advance even if the rest of us haven¡¯t.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, oh, why don¡¯t I have such a daughter?¡± Wen Xian looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s back and felt she liked it more and more, smiling motherlyly.


    Jiang Laien laughed and continued to promote topics that benefited Ye Kehuan: ¡°People still have to be in contact with each other to know if a person is good or not.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard what Jiang Laien said, her ears became hot again, and she walked forward quickly: ¡°Anyway, let¡¯s go to the first one!¡±


    After more than an hour passed, finally everyone had bought a swimsuit they were satisfied with. Of course, Jiang Laien also bought a big duck swimming ring.


    After the shopping, the group entered the water park.


    The swimsuit that Jiang Laien chose was relatively cute, mainly because the swimsuit was not too exposing, and there were many kinds of ruffles. It covered a lot, but it did not appear too conservative or boring, which was more in line with her company¡¯s external created character that would make men and women watch more.


    Although she would want to be sexier if she chose it personally.


    After everyone changed, they went to play together.


    Because Jiang Laien hadn¡¯t played like that for a long time, she was quite unskilled at first, and she didn¡¯t dare to enter the water.


    But later, slowly, she became proficient, and she completely threw the swimming ring aside, because she didn¡¯t need it at all.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but clap her hands, and then give her a word of praise: ¡°Awesome!¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°Yes, I am probably a genius. I should swim faster than you now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head after listening: ¡°Are you asleep?¡±


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien snorted: ¡°I¡¯m very awake!¡±


    Ye Kehuan: ¡°Then let¡¯s try? See if I catch you!¡±


    ¡°Okay, come and catch me!¡± So then, Jiang Laien smiled and swam in another direction, turning from time to time to splash water at Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°You wait!¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she sped up without saying a word.


    Jiang Laien was startled, and continued to swim forward very hard, but in the end, her wrist was still grasped.


    ¡°I¡¯ve caught you!¡± Ye Kehuan grabbed Jiang Laien¡¯s waist, pulled her towards her, hugged her tightly in her arms, and wiped the water from her face, smiling very brightly.


    At that moment, the water had wet both of their clothes, and also wet their hair and eyelashes. In addition Jiang Laien¡¯s plain makeup had a very young and sweet look. Therefore, in such a slightly backlit picture, she looked even better.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Jiang Laien pursed her lips, her glazed eyes turning, looking into Ye Kehuan¡¯s, ¡°I was caught by you all at once.¡±


    For a moment, Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand on her waist felt like it was burning, and her eyes didn¡¯t know where to focus. There seemed to be something implicated by the two of them. It was a bit strange and scary to Ye Kehuan, but she couldn¡¯t help but want to get more.


    Moreover, under that halo, Jiang Laien¡¯s slightly opened lips looked very beautiful, with the slight water and light makeup, which made people want to kiss her.


    The author has something to say: Kehuan: I find that I seem to be a little weird recently! What¡¯s wrong with me? !

 CH 19

    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien asked with her lips turned up slightly. ¡°Looking at me so stupidly.¡±


    After a while, the somewhat dazed Ye Kehuan slowly returned to reality.


    Shaking her head, Ye Kehuan let go of her, raised her hand and stroked her hair: ¡°Nothing¡­¡±


    Even though Ye Kehuan said so, the snare drum in her heart was still beating again and again, and it was even more frantic when her thoughts ran wild.


    Why did things turn out like this? Why did I give birth to these inexplicably nice thoughts?


    They were getting lewder by the second. If Jiang Laien knew that she had those weird ideas when facing her, then there was a high probability that they would really have to split again, right?


    With a heavy sigh, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and patted her face.


    Time moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, September arrived.


    Without noticing, a total of six or seven episodes of the tourist reality show had been recorded. At the same time, the editing of the first episode was almost complete, and the air time was getting closer and closer.


    Due to the fact that the program group occasionally put out some teasers and pictures for publicity, the degree of public attention on the program had been very high.


    When the program team was preparing to go to the next city to record the eighth episode, because Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had to go back to Morikawa to complete some work tasks, the two left  the program team early in the morning and went to the airport.


    After returning to Morikawa City, Ye Kehuan looked around from time to time after leaving the airport.


    ¡°What are you looking at?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    When Ye Kehuan heard, she fought a bitter smile: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, just seeing if we are really not being photographed anymore.¡±


    She had to say that she was a bit nervous after doing the show, and now she felt that she would be followed everywhere she went.


    ¡°They¡¯re gone, don¡¯t worry.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    The two continued to walk forward quietly. No one spoke, and a subtle atmosphere filled the air.


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡±


    In the end, the two spoke at the same time.


    ¡°You speak first.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her sideways and wanted to ask her if the tenderness she gave to her during the show was real, but she didn¡¯t know how to start, so she finally asked: ¡°Did you come back to film?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien shook her head: ¡°I don¡¯t want to film recently, because my company needs to take care of some matters. Then there is an endorsement and a magazine cover to be filmed. If the magazine is good to go, I will directly shoot it. Director Chen Fei and Xiao An¡¯an are both discussing it with me. They liked the makeup last time.¡±


    ¡°They¡¯re all famous things, really amazing.¡± Ye Kehuan praised her sincerely, without realizing how happy and proud she was.


    Jiang Laien turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan for a while, and then smiled: ¡°What about you? What is your job back here this time?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan¡¯s smile gradually disappeared, and she coughed again: ¡°My part in the movie ¡°Top of the Clouds¡± is about to be filmed, and the actor who happened to be my partner is also available.¡±


    Hearing this, Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°I¡¯ll watch it when it¡¯s released.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, a bit of joy appeared in her heart, but then she fell silent, and then said after a while: ¡°In fact, it¡¯s not necessary. It may only take a few minutes to cut out the scene.¡±


    Jiang Laien saw the loneliness in her eyes, thought for a long time, and asked: ¡°Do you really want to have a movie with a lot of scenes?¡±


    ¡°I want to dream,¡± Ye Kehuan coughed, ¡°but for now, I¡¯ll just be dreaming.¡±


    However, Jiang Laien¡¯s lips curled up: ¡°This dream will come true in a short time.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening: ¡°Are you sure?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    At this time, the two walked into the VIP parking building, so the chat ended.


    ¡°Then, I will go to work first.¡± Jiang Laien looked sideways at Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Okay.¡±


    ¡°Laien¡­¡± However, after Jiang Laien walked a few steps, Ye Kehuan stopped her again.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien turned around.


    ¡°That¡­¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her, clasping her hands in her pants pockets.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien asked again.


    Ye Kehuan held back for a long time: ¡°Remember to eat on time.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and nodded: ¡°I will. You as well. Then, I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°And¡­¡± But at this moment, Ye Kehuan stopped her again.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked back again in confusion.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan summoned her courage, stepped forward, stuffed something into Jiang Laien¡¯s hand, then straightened the hat on her head, grabbed the handle of her suitcase, and went to the car with her assistant. Ran away.


    Jiang Laien was stunned for a second, then slowly opened the palm of her hand, only to see a shell necklace in it. On top, there was a sticky note with a few words in ugly handwriting.


    Really, these words are still as ugly as back then¡­ However, Jiang Laien¡¯s nose was a bit sore.


    Ye Kehuan wrote: ¡°I¡¯m very happy to meet you again. If you don¡¯t dislike it, after these few days, can we play together before going back to the show?¡±


    ¡°Fool, idiot, of course!¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s nose was sore, and she couldn¡¯t help laughing.


    Yingying looked at her and then at Ye Kehuan, feeling that something seemed a bit wrong.


    On the other side, after Ye Kehuan got in the car, she saw Jiang Laien sent her a sentence on WeChat, ¡°Okay, big idiot!¡±


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan was so excited that she clenched her fist and shouted ¡°Yes!¡±, and the assistant was bewildered.


    After Ye Kehuan returned to Morikawa City, she went to the crew non-stop and began to move bricks. Although she played a little-known role, she still performed very hard. If she didn¡¯t pay attention, she wouldn''t have noticed that two days had already passed.


    Ye Kehuan returned home after filming the last scene of beatings with people in the swamp. She went to dry her body and changed her clothes.


    Because Jiang Laien was not there that day, Ye Kehuan casually cooked some noodles, made a drink, and began swiping through her mobile phone. After opening Weibo, she suddenly remembered that the show ¡°The Food is Ready¡± would premiere today!


    Since the show was about to be broadcast, the program team posted a blog post the previous night, and again at noon, which announced the launch of the official broadcast, and the guests also reposted it themselves.


    Although there was still a while before the broadcast time, the topic of #FoodIsReadySeason3Preview had been hovering in the middle area of the hot search list.


    Once it was broadcast, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem for it to soar to the top of the list.


    Speaking of which, Ye Kehuan had previously participated on a TV series called ¡°Little Chef¡± which was well received.


    At first it all looked pretty good, but seeing that her acting career was about to turn around, her opponents spread rumors about her on the Internet, saying that when she was on the TV series ¡°Little Chef¡±, she did nothing. If you knew nothing, you only had to show up, and they would use a substitute throughout the whole process. With those rumors, everyone¡¯s hatred of her became almost overwhelming.


    Therefore, ¡°The Food is Ready¡± was really important to her at that time--at least people would know that she really does cook, and there was no need to find a substitute.


    Ye Kehuan stared at the hot label of the show for a long time, but finally couldn¡¯t help it, and clicked on the Weibo published by the show group to read everyone¡¯s comments--


    ¡°This man is really conflicted. I really like Brother Junyi, but at the same time, I really hate Ye Kehuan, so, should I watch this show?!¡±


    ¡°Conflicted +1. I have liked Laien for three years. I have basically seen all her dramas and movies two or three times. I have been looking forward to seeing her performance on variety shows. Now she has finally participated in one, but there¡¯s this shit! Kehuan, you¡¯re making me bald!!¡±


    ¡°Hehe, I bet a dime on the hot strips that Ye Kehuan would be crazy and try to seduce my Brother Junyi in this show!¡±


    ¡°Yes, I¡¯m so angry when I think of that! The male gods I like are almost all tainted by her. As long as a man looks at her, she will send a notice saying that she is fascinated by him, I vomit!¡±


    ¡°Sit and wait for the **** to be beaten to heaven by netizens~hehe~¡±


    ¡°The person who can cook only shit, wait for Ye Kehuan to reveal her true shape tonight~ ha ha~¡±


    ¡°Is Ye Kehuan¡¯s cooking edible? I¡¯m afraid she can¡¯t even hold a knife. The things she makes should also poison people. Hahahaha, her teammates will probably be **** off by her! Hahahahahahahahahaha!¡±


    Sure enough, just as Ye Kehuan expected, although there were still some people who were curious about what Bai Wei and Jiang Laien posted on Weibo to support her before, and would wait to see what happened in the show, but for the general public, her existence was still very repulsive.


    Most people thought that she was bad, couldn¡¯t cook, and used underhanded methods. Therefore, before the show was broadcast, everyone began to express their dissatisfaction with her strongly.


    However, Ye Kehuan did laugh after reading it.


    At the same time, the marketing accounts were also in place, just waiting for Ye Kehuan to make a fool of herself, so that they could ridicule her to attract fans.


    As for the celebrities who wanted to be on the show, they paid more attention than anyone else. Every one of them wished that Ye Kehuan would act stupidly on the show and be drowned by the audience¡¯s saliva.


    Among them, Cheng Yan, even though she was on a set and her make-up was done, she was still holding her mobile phone to watch the live broadcast.


    She had always been very upset about the fact that she was replaced by the program team, and by Ye Kehuan of all people!


    She wanted to just let it go. It was also a joy to sit and watch Ye Kehuan be scolded as a super big head. Thinking of this, Cheng Yan felt a lot more comfort in an instant. After a grin, she turned her head and looked at the assistant who was standing by: ¡°Buy me some melon seeds later.¡±


    Finally, it was eight o¡¯clock.


    Ye Kehuan, who was originally on Weibo, slowly raised her head and clicked on the first episode of the variety show that was just updated on time.


    As the opening song of the show sounded, a barrage of comments gradually floated over¡­


    The author has something to say: If nothing happens, enter v in the next chapter, and leave a red envelope in the first three chapters after v~


    In addition, please read my work ¡°Marriage and Sultry¡±!

 CH 20

    ¡°Check in, waiting for Laien!¡±


    ¡°Check in, waiting for Junyi!¡±


    Although there was only an animated title card, and there was nothing happening and no one on screen, everyone on the bullet screen was very excited, waiting for their idols to appear.


    Among them, the loudest fans were undoubtedly Jiang Laien¡¯s. After all, this was Jiang Laien¡¯s first variety show. With Jiang Laien¡¯s fan appeal, even if she was quietly sitting in the show as a vase and not talking, everyone could still look on like idiots.


    Next was Zhou Junyi. After all, he was a popular idol. He was handsome, sung and danced well, and had captured the hearts of a lot of girls.


    In the blink of an eye, the intro was over, and the real film started, the cameras unfolding before countless different watchers.


    During that period, whether the screen showed Jiang Laien or Zhou Junyi, it was always responded to by countless screams.


    Not long after the broadcast began, the screen was already covered up by a blockbuster-like ¡°Ahhhhhhh, I¡¯m dead, Laien is so beautiful!¡± or ¡°Junyi is so handsome¡±. It was really booming.


    Some people even asked what brand of clothes Jiang Laien was wearing and which sunglasses Zhou Junyi was wearing.


    However, when the camera switched to Ye Kehuan¡¯s place, the painting style on the barrage suddenly became magical:


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to see her!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to +1, I really hate her, this mouse shit, why does this show have to invite her over to participate? I feel the entire level has dropped¡­¡±


    ¡°Yes, so angry! This woman is really poisonous and bad. The chance to participate in this show should belong to Cheng Yan!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll go to the toilet to vomit for a while, then come back after vomiting, you guys continue¡­¡±


    ¡­


    Sure enough, as soon as everyone saw her appearing, even if she did nothing, she would still be scolded.


    However, for Cheng Yan, she really did her all to grab this opportunity. Cheng Yan¡¯s fans were insisting on claiming that she had been robbed or something, which was enough to make people laugh.


    The barrage was really horrible¡­ To close it¡­ Ye Kehuan hesitated.


    But in the end, Ye Kehuan still didn¡¯t close the barrage, but bit the bullet and continued to watch.


    As the program progressed, Bai Wei, who was so innocent, kind and cute, appeared for the watchers this time, and at the same time she stepped on Ye Kehuan¡¯s foot, everyone feeling that they were not worthy of the same frame. Because Bai Wei was famous and so down-to-earth like the girl next door, but Ye Kehuan had more than one marketing account that would break the news about teaming up with big names or something.


    In the blink of an eye, the program was broadcast up to the kitchen where Ye Kehuan went into the small villa.


    Then, the show gave some scenes of Jiang Laien awkwardly cutting things, and also gave Zhou Junyi some close-up shots of him cutting.


    In those shots, Zhou Junyi looked very handsome, and the cuts were also very beautiful, and he smiled and guided Jiang Laien from time to time. The background music was very quiet and refreshing, and the whole mood left everyone imagining.


    As a result, the barrage was instantly maxed out:


    ¡°Ah, my male god is so good at cutting this, he cooks so handsomely, it is absolutely amazing, and, I can go to the store, I can go to the kitchen. I can, really I can!¡±


    ¡°The two of them really seem to be too good, right? They are so talented and beautiful!¡±


    ¡°My favorite male god and my favorite goddess are in the same frame, help me, my heartbeat can hardly breathe! Also, the look in Junyi¡¯s eyes when he looks at the goddess, my God!¡±


    ¡­


    When Ye Kehuan saw that barrage, she didn¡¯t know what was going on. She only felt a little sour in her heart.


    Right? Is it? Are you blind? Why don¡¯t I see anything that¡¯s right? Isn¡¯t it just a man and a woman standing together? Are you so excited? Okay, isn¡¯t it just cutting a vegetable¡­


    Then, the camera turned to the time where Ye Kehuan said that she could cut the potato to shreds, and cut it smoothly, so the comments burst into laughter again:


    ¡°She really knows how to cut?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t she always looking for a stand-in when filming food dramas before? Why, now she is going to lift a rock and drop it on her foot? Hahahaha¡­¡±


    Seeing this, Ye Kehuan hugged her arms and muttered to herself in a low voice: ¡°If you just watch it, you will know.¡±


    However, at the moment when Ye Kehuan picked up the potatoes and lifted the knife, the program turned away from the scene of Ye Kehuan cutting vegetables, instead switching to the scene of Jiang Laien taking things to advertise. Because Jiang Laien¡¯s advertisements were so good.


    In an instant, a barrage appeared on the video:


    ¡°Hahahaha laughing to death, I¡¯ll just say¡­¡±


    ¡°So this ad is to conceal Ye Kehuan who actually knows nothing? Manual-dog-head.jpg¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second.


    Then, there was a faint cry of pain that suddenly appeared in the program, and everyone on the screen stopped their work to look at her.


    Then, Jiang Laien also instantly put down the merchandise in her hand and walked over, pulling up Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand. Then, the camera switched to Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand and gave a close-up. There was a cut in the upper part, and blood was overflowing, which looked a bit scary. That¡¯s right, when Ye Kehuan picked up the knife for the first time there, she cut her own hand to that point.


    In an instant, the barrage suddenly intensified:


    ¡°Sure enough, she is a waste who knows nothing!¡±


    ¡°Where is she, just causing chaos, drag her back!¡±


    ¡°It seems the fact that Ye Kehuan was looking for a substitute in the food drama was confirmed. At that time, she also posted a draft saying that everything was done by herself alone. Fuck the Almighty Person, I vomit¡­¡±


    ¡°So, can you not have so many shots about her? I want to see Junyi!¡±


    Seeing this, Ye Kehuan was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, but then calmed down again. What hadn¡¯t she seen in all these years? She would be guilty if she hurt her liver over this kind of thing!


    In addition, everyone even stamped Jiang Laien and Bai Wei¡¯s praise that they were just promoting the show.


    Then, the program switched to the meal session, and a close-up of the table full of dishes was specially given. Just looking at it was very relaxing, and it started to look like a food show!


    Everyone in the comments was also frantically calling Zhou Junyi, calling him husband, and praising him to the sky. In fact, Ye Kehuan felt that Zhou Junyi¡¯s dishes were really pretty mediocre, just that he was good at plating, but the taste was not so amazing.


    So far, more than twenty minutes had passed since the start, but the evaluation of Ye Kehuan was still particularly low.


    In the blink of an eye, it was late at night. After Ye Kehuan came out of the bathroom, she stood still in the small room connected to the bathroom and looked around.


    Seeing this shot, Ye Kehuan immediately sat up straight? Hadn¡¯t her posing in the front of the mirror been cut out?!


    At this time, a special effects frame appeared on the program screen. The special effects frame was a cloud with a pair of mung bean eyes: ¡°What is she doing?¡±


    Then Ye Kehuan took some cloth and walked over to cover the lens.


    Special effects frame: ¡°Why cover our camera???¡± In an instant, the screen went black.


    But in the blink of an eye, the screen lit up again, and the shooting angle of the film had changed. The special effects frame reappeared: ¡°With hundreds of meticulous schemes, we also have a camera hidden in the mirror!¡±


    After that, everyone saw Ye Kehuan with one hand on her waist, swaying to imitate a supermodel, walking from the right, and then from the left, and finally striking a pose, raising her hand, smiling evilly, and saying: ¡°Hello everyone, I¡¯m supermodel Lilian.¡±


    However, Ye Kehuan during the filming didn¡¯t even know that she had been caught at that time. She continued to stroke her hair, brushing it to the floor, and then pointed her hand towards the mirror, saying in a voice that was too soft: ¡°Ah, I will be your flame!¡±


    All of a sudden, the barrage of hahaha exploded.


    ¡°This is a bit too real¡­ Isn¡¯t this me? After taking a shower, I always do some inexplicable things in front of the mirror¡­¡±


    ¡°Hahaha I laughed so much that I swayed like crazy!¡±


    ¡°? ? ? What did I just see? Ye Kehuan turned out to be like this in private?¡±


    ¡°Laughing myself to death, good pose! I decided to like you for a minute first, and temporarily postpone what I know about you, hahaha!¡±


    ¡­


    Originally, these things were the most embarrassing things for Ye Kehuan. She couldn¡¯t wait to sneak into the program group and delete them secretly. She couldn¡¯t help covering her eyes as soon as she saw them being broadcast. Unexpectedly, everyone¡¯s reaction to it was unexpectedly good¡­what the hell?! She really couldn¡¯t figure out if the public was cute!


    Is it true that my correct path should actually be¡­ a comedian?


    In the blink of an eye, forty minutes passed. Then, the program was sent to the horror secret room, and the scene of Zhou Junyi comforting Jiang Laien not to be afraid was played three times, and the word ¡°intimate¡± was typed next to it.


    In an instant, everyone in the comments began to scream again, shouting that Zhou Junyi was really her perfect boyfriend!


    However, after seeing Zhou Junyi, who was scared away, locking Jiang Laien and the others in a room and running away alone, the fangirls suddenly stopped talking, even though some resolute fans said, ¡°My brother was only scared all of a sudden, he¡¯s still there¡±, but the public still couldn¡¯t help raising some voices of doubt.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t count if you run away, and you lock people in the house. Isn¡¯t that too unjust?¡±


    ¡°Zhou Junyi¡¯s mindset is toxic, right? Oh my god, Laien has shrunk into a ball, what should I do?!¡±


    ¡°Oh my god, don¡¯t be afraid Laien, we will be with you! Cry¡­¡±


    ¡­


    If one person only ran away without looking back, maybe everyone would not say anything, but Zhou Junyi ran away and locked the door, leaving Jiang Laien and the others in the room, frightened. Yes, and Jiang Laien seemed to be very scared, so the audience were all angry and attacked him for a while.


    However, at that moment, the screen suddenly switched, and Ye Kehuan suddenly ran over, fending off the ¡°ghost¡± who frightened Jiang Laien, and hugged Jiang Laien to comfort her.


    It may have been that the scene was too shocking, but after a while, the comments became active again.


    ¡°God, I never thought that the most reliable person at a critical moment turned out to be Ye Kehuan¡­¡±


    ¡°I used to be unpleasant to her, but now I unexpectedly feel that the more I look at her, the more pleasing she is to the eye.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s so warm to be able to subconsciously make such a move when you are extremely scared¡­¡±


    ¡­


    Ye Kehuan also didn¡¯t expect that the actions she made in the face of this sudden situation turned out to cause a wave in people¡¯s hearts. But at the same time, she was really worried that Jiang Laien was frightened, so she rushed forward regardless.


    At this point, the show was half over. The audience¡¯s attitude towards Ye Kehuan had also changed visibly.


    And the people who were expecting Ye Kehuan to make a fool of herself were all dumbfounded at this moment. Cheng Yan was so angry that she almost threw the melon seeds to the ground. After all, what else was more uncomfortable than watching your dead opponent get up smoothly?


    In response, the surrounding assistants looked at each other but were afraid to speak. They were afraid that one would catch her ire.


    However, Cheng Yan laughed after being angry for a while. It was okay, the next step was to enter the challenge of making food, so Ye Kehuan¡¯s personality would soon collapse!


    Thinking of this, the corners of Cheng Yan¡¯s lips twitched again.


    Ye Kehuan was also extremely nervous at this time.


    After all, her previous scene of cutting potatoes had been cut out, and now she didn¡¯t know how many shots they would give her of formal cooking.


    As a result, surprisingly, she was the opening scene! At the beginning, she filled her apron, put it on over her clothes, grabbed the iron spoon, and raised her eyes. The whole process was edited into slow motion, so the comments chimed one after another:


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with her suddenly seeming a little handsome?¡±


    ¡°The bigger the posturing is, the worse the actual operation will be. This appraisal is complete.¡±


    ¡°My elder sister is so gentle, and she asked Laien to do simpler things. No wonder Laien will support her like that on Weibo. Come on, sister!¡±


    ¡­


    Although many people in the comments were still questioning Ye Kehuan, as the show progressed, as Ye Kehuan¡¯s awkwardness when she was cutting vegetables or cooking was shown, all those people were stunned. They were slapped, one after another.


    ¡°Oh my god, it¡¯s incredible. I didn¡¯t expect Ye Kehuan to be hidden, isn¡¯t this a real chef?! This knife skill, this OCD, it¡¯s really perfect!¡±


    ¡°Oh, so hungry, the bread in my hand instantly became dull¡­¡±


    Moreover, because the scene of Ye Kehuan¡¯s cooking looked too attractive, and the color was very beautiful, it was different from the clumsy feeling of the others. Therefore, when the camera was switched to other people¡¯s sides, the people in the barrage all yelled to cut the camera back quickly, they just wanted to watch Ye Kehuan cook!


    The entire cooking section was edited very tightly and tensely. That episode of the program became more and more interesting. Some people commented that they were tempted through the screen.


    After the cooking session was over, it was time for the comments of the food critics.


    However, the program team also specially gave the critics various close-ups when they bit the food. In this way, even the separation of the food and the dripping of the sauce were fully displayed, and the best ones were obviously made by Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien!


    When the foodies commented on Ye Kehuan¡¯s dishes, the people in the comments went crazy and expressed their desire to eat a lot. At the same time, they began to condemn certain marketing accounts that Ye Kehuan could not cook and act. The big names were therefore looking for scapegoats to act as substitutes.


    When Cheng Yan, who had just finished work, saw those comments, she clenched her teeth and slammed her phone on the table, and then rushed to the assistant who came over and shouted: ¡°So, you want to burn me? You want to burn me? Are you asking to die?!¡±


    After the crew looked at each other, they looked at Cheng Yan again, and they didn¡¯t dare to speak much. Cheng Yan¡¯s temper was really getting bigger and bigger. She was exploding every day, and her mind was too toxic, which made their hearts tired.


    In the end, the program was finished, and only the teaser for the next episode was left. However, the barrage of comments were all looking forward to it. At the same time, many people were still praising Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan smiled slightly after seeing them. God knew how unbelievable that was to her. Even she had a day when she was praised!


    If she were told this in the past, it would be something she would not dare to even imagine¡­


    Suddenly, Ye Kehuan wanted to share such joy with someone. Who was that person? That person was¡­


    After sitting up on the sofa, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand, picked up her phone from the coffee table, and opened Jiang Laien¡¯s WeChat chat box.


    Yes, she wanted to share that feeling with Jiang Laien.


    But after opening the chat box, she hesitated again.


    Jiang Laien seemed to have said that she would be very busy that day. Would it disturb her if she sent a message?


    Finally, Ye Kehuan sent a message to Jiang Laien: ¡°Are you still busy now?¡±


    After sending it, Ye Kehuan thought that Jiang Laien would reply to her later, but she didn¡¯t expect that Jiang Laien replied in the next second: ¡°I¡¯m not very busy now, just returned to the hotel.¡±


    Yes, Jiang Laien went to work in the next city again that day, so she didn¡¯t come back.


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she thought for a while, and then sent another message: ¡°Then you, have you eaten yet?¡±


    ¡°Not yet, I just got done.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    After reading the message, Ye Kehuan frowned, ¡°How can you always be so irregular?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this always the case in this industry? Just get used to it.¡± Jiang Laien also sent a smiling expression over.


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh and typed again: ¡°Then are you hungry now? Do you want to buy something to eat?¡±


    A few minutes later, Jiang Laien replied, ¡°I¡¯m a little hungry, but I don¡¯t know what I want to eat¡­ Actually, I know what I want to eat, but I can¡¯t eat it here.¡±


    Upon seeing this, Ye Kehuan hurriedly typed: ¡°Then what do you want to eat? I¡¯ll help you find out if there is any near you.¡±


    Then Jiang Laien¡¯s reply left Ye Kehuan stunned.


    ¡°There is none here, because I want to eat what you make.¡±


    Ye Kehuan held her phone and read the message from Jiang Laien several times. Her whole body was in disbelief, and at the same time, there was a faint sweetness in her heart.


    ¡°What I make¡­¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled up, ¡°Is it really that delicious?¡±


    ¡°As long as you make it, it¡¯s delicious.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    After seeing her reply, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but smile.


    ¡°Then I will do it for you later.¡± Ye Kehuan hurriedly typed.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien said with an emoticon, ¡°I¡¯ve remembered it.¡±


    After staring at the screen for a while, Ye Kehuan quickly typed: ¡°By the way, the variety show we participated in has already been broadcast.¡±


    ¡°Yes, everyone around me is talking about it.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    Ye Kehuan laughed: ¡°It¡¯s amazing. When I got to the end, no one scolded me.¡±


    ¡°Because you are really nice and cute, why would anyone want to scold you? People around me said that they liked you after watching the show.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan was still in a little disbelief.


    ¡°Really.¡±


    ¡°Ah, by the way, no matter what, you should have something to eat now. What you want isn¡¯t always possible!¡± Ye Kehuan was silly for a moment, and immediately sent that message to Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Well, well, I¡¯ll listen to you. I¡¯ll go see if there is anything vegetarian to eat. Then buy it, bring it back, and watch the show while eating.¡±


    ¡°Okay, go!¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily.


    After that, Ye Kehuan waited until the screen of the phone went out, then pressed the bright button again to unlock it, looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s portrait, and then clicked into her circle of friends and browsed.


    Then, Ye Kehuan saw that Jiang Laien had posted to her circle of friends half an hour before, in which she took a group photo of her and a group of people.


    Ye Kehuan noticed with a sharp eye that Jiang Laien was still wearing the shell necklace she had given her. The necklace was paired with a light blue skirt and looked very beautiful.


    Unexpectedly, she would actually wear it out. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what spirit she had caught, just that she couldn¡¯t stop grinning from ear to ear, and always wanted to laugh.


    Then Ye Kehuan chatted with Jiang Laien for a few hours. After the chat was over, she was idle and had nothing to do, so she played with her phone and clicked on Weibo again.


    When Weibo opened, Ye Kehuan was a little dumbfounded.


    It was really incredible. In a short period of time, her Weibo had gained countless fans, and her private inbox was about to explode.


    She couldn¡¯t remember how long it was since she experienced this influx. You know, in the past, everyone came to Ye Kehuan to curse for a few words and left. Where would they pay special attention?


    Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded, and then opened a private message with some trepidation. What was unexpected was that although there were still a lot of haters, who scolded her and satirized whether she was ready to start washing herself, most people sent words of encouragement.


    With a smile, Ye Kehuan picked out a few private messages and replied, ¡°Thank you for your support, I will definitely work hard¡±, and then swiped the homepage again.


    I wouldn¡¯t have known if I didn¡¯t do it, but I was shocked when I did. I saw my homepage was basically contracted by the program group for the show right now.


    Whether it was a marketing account, a star, or a director, they were forwarding some scripts and animations about the first phase of the show. Among them, the clip of Ye Kehuan cutting vegetables and cooking was the most reposted.


    Almost everyone was discussing Ye Kehuan¡¯s performance on the show.


    It seems that there are really many people watching this show today! Ye Kehuan thought for a while, and then went into the Weibo hot search list again.


    After entering, she discovered that the top few and even several topics in the middle of the Weibo hot search list were almost all connected by Ye Kehuan!


    #YeKehuan¡¯sFoodIsReady


    #YeKehuanDidAGreatJob


    #TreasureChefYeKehuan


    #TheLegendOfYeKehuanAndJiangLaien


    ¡­


    Finally, Ye Kehuan was no longer relying on anything this time. #YeKehuan¡¯sBeautifulFaceShamesTheCrowd or #YeKehuanIsAStunningMaleProtagonist and other topics came to the hot search!


    Her slender hand trembled slightly, and then Ye Kehuan held a pillow and clicked the hot search topics one by one, and began to read everyone¡¯s comments in her heart.


    You know, the previous commenters on her Weibo were very desperate after reading them.


    ¡°Sorry everyone, as a senior black fan of Ye Kehuan, I have spared no effort to black her out for a year. Today, I am about to say goodbye to this cause!¡±


    ¡°After watching the show, my biggest feeling is that in the future, I must not blindly follow the trend and try to slander someone. Reality shows are actually very good at showing character, because even if you have a Taiwanese book, it is impossible to hide it. It is easy to take care of some details. It will reveal that true nature is difficult to change. But from the performance of Ye Kehuan on this show, she is really good.¡±


    ¡°Oh my god, why is Ye Kehuan so crazy?! I really want to turn around and give her some love!¡±


    ¡°MMP, I just finished a diet today, but I was starved by Sister Ye. I opened the refrigerator and ate a pack of instant noodles, a can of coke, a kiwi, and some bread. It was crazy!¡±


    ¡­


    Ye Kehuan was finally relieved when she saw this, and when she saw the person who couldn¡¯t help but cursing, she laughed unconsciously, and couldn¡¯t help but give her a compliment.


    So, in an instant, Ye Kehuan received a reply from the netizen:


    ¡°I was praised by Sister Ye on my flop? Sister Ye, don¡¯t go out, come and stay, what should I do if I ruin my diet?!¡±


    Therefore, Ye Kehuan made a thoughtful expression with her cheeks lifted: ¡°You can regain your strength when you are full. Come on, you are the best!¡±


    Then, some netizens were touched and ¡°condemned¡± Ye Kehuan with the irritable sister.


    Of course, there were also some people who did not watch the show. After discovering the massive defection of the entire network, they all looked confused and went to Weibo to ask: ¡°What happened today? Why do I feel that the world has changed all of a sudden? Didn¡¯t everyone still scold Ye Kehuan for being so stupid yesterday? Why are you shouting to be her fan one by one now? Why?¡±


    Yes, after that episode was broadcast, everything seemed to be shuffled.


    Ye Kehuan sat there and continued to scan the comments for a while, feeling that 70% to 80% were positive, and everyone seemed to really like her a lot. At that moment, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help holding the phone to her chest, and looked up at the ceiling.


    ¡°It¡¯s great.¡± After a moment, Ye Kehuan said two words softly.


    After that, Ye Kehuan turned over and lay down again, looked at the laptop on the coffee table, laughed happily, and shouted: ¡°So happy!¡±


    What kind of feeling was that, like a person who had been trapped in a deep valley, was about to lose hope, when suddenly, someone tossed a vine and let her catch it, so then she climbed up and saw the sunshine again.


    Then, Ye Kehuan seemed to think of something, so she sat up hurriedly, held up the phone like a hamster, and clicked on her Weibo. After looking at the New Post button for a while, she finally clicked on it, and began to type:


    ¡°Have you all finished watching the show now? If you haven¡¯t watched it yet, remember to watch it. Everyone who participated in the show is super cute and super awesome. They took great care of me throughout the whole process. The staff also worked very hard. They are super hard workers.


    ¡°I, Ye Kehuan, am 25 years old this year, not a college graduate, but I had a dream of becoming an actor since I was young. I have been in the entertainment industry for a year and 267 days. I have made three TV series, a low-cost movie, and participated in two variety shows. My ratings are not very good, my acting skills are also relatively bad, coupled with a lot of things, it may make people have a bad impression of me. However, people will grow, and I will try to make myself grow. Although my progress was very slow when I was learning acting, I will not stop. Are you willing to wait for me to grow up?


    ¡°Finally, thank you all for your support. What everyone said today made me feel like I saw the light! I want to tell you aloud that I am not afraid of anything. I want to go further. I hope everyone can support me and encourage me. I will definitely reward everyone with better results!¡±


    After editing, Ye Kehuan looked at it again, and then sent the long Weibo post, and squatted on the sofa to continue reading the blog she had just posted.


    As soon as Weibo received the post, the members who also participated in the recording of the show, including Jiang Laien, all reposted it.


    Bai Wei: ¡°Sister Huan, I will support you forever!¡±


    Liu Yun: ¡°I covet this girl!¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Okay, I¡¯m waiting for you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled when she looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s words, then looked back, and found that she had received countless likes and comments from the netizens.


    After automatically filtering out the comments of haters and the doubters, Ye Kehuan looked at it and laughed. After that, she smiled, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red.


    In the comment area, someone said: ¡°It¡¯s okay to learn things slowly! I learn things very slowly. My brother learned to bike in half an hour. I took a whole month. But it¡¯s still done anyway, isn¡¯t it? Yes, your acting skills will definitely improve. Miss Sister, I will wait for you!¡±


    Someone said: ¡°It¡¯s rare to see celebrities saying these heart-wrenching things to people. It feels like Miss Sister has been wronged for a long time?! Sorry, I have been following you for a while, I¡¯m really sorry!¡±


    Others said: ¡°You are already my heart¡¯s flame. If you need light, then I will be your light to help you disperse the haze around you and illuminate the roads ahead. Miss Sister, duck! Like a warrior, venture forth!¡±


    After reading several replies, Ye Kehuan only felt warm in her heart.


    ¡°Duck!¡± Ye Kehuan laughed happily.


    The author has something to say: Warm reminder, after you V the first three chapters, leave a red envelope~

 CH 21

    At this time, in a neighboring city.


    When Jiang Laien watched the program, she was smiling the whole time.


    After that, while watching a few other shows, her phone vibrated.


    So Jiang Laien picked up the phone, unlocked it, opened WeChat, and saw the director Chen Fei had sent her another message: ¡°Laien, more than half a month has passed, how are you feeling about it? Would you like to join this movie with me? ?¡±


    After seeing this, Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and looked at the two scripts next to her.


    One was ¡°Black Bites¡± by the well-known director Chen Fei, and the other was ¡°The Good Times of Those Years¡± by the well-known director Xian An¡¯an.


    The former was a suspenseful script with dual heroines and a little bit of spirituality. It was about one of the heroines, Qi Luo, who was an actress that was murdered, and then became a ghost, wandering aimlessly. She accidentally runs into Su He, who had yin and yang eyes.


    Su He was a D-list actress who was not well-known. The audience dislikes her because of her outspokenness and poor acting skills, but she is actually very kind and introverted.


    Therefore, Su He decides to help Qi Luo resolve her grievances, but unexpectedly she gets involved in them and suffers from increasing suppression and cyber violence¡­


    In that script, Qi Luo and Su He encounter a lot of danger, but the communication between Qi Luo and Su He was filled with laughter. In the end, they develop a strong bond, like rivers running into the sea, and the plot was not too heavy, just thought-provoking.


    This script¡­ At first glance, I can tell it will be a big hit after it is released, and critically acclaimed.


    The latter was a small fresh BG love script like orange juice. It told the story of a man and a woman who were tired of the complications of urban life and went to the countryside to cleanse their souls. As a result, they are shocked when they accidentally meet each other.


    Jiang Laien bit her lower lip lightly, then touched her chip, and then typed: ¡°I like the script ¡°Black Bites¡±. It is very tense, and the themes in it are also thought-provoking.¡±


    ¡°So, are you agreeing to act?¡± Chen Fei looked a little pleased. After all, he had always been Jiang Laien¡¯s number one fan.


    ¡°I want to act, but, Director Chen, I would like  to take the liberty to ask: does Su He have a good actress?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Hey, I¡¯m still choosing, such a headache. There are not many people who are suitable for this role. After all, she is a kind of person who is a little careless and wears her heart on her sleeve, and isn¡¯t good at conversation. Many people can¡¯t understand playing a character to that degree. Otherwise, it will just be a bunch of people who have the acting skills but can¡¯t feel the soul.¡± Chen Fei seemed a little lost.


    After reading that, Jiang Laien thought for a moment: ¡°Then, I have someone who I want to recommend for it. I don¡¯t know if Director Chen is willing to let her have a trial.¡±


    ¡°Go ahead!¡± the genius Chen Fei replied.


    Jiang Laien sighed and typed: ¡°Ye Kehuan.¡±


    The next day.


    The activity about Ye Kehuan¡¯s participating still occupied hot searches from all walks of life, and everyone was still happily playing with some of the stuff from it, and even another topic: #YeKehuan¡¯sGirlfriend.


    The scene could be said to be very prosperous.


    Although there were still a lot of people who were stirring up trouble and throwing jabs, saying that everyone else was all dumb and had no brain of their own, many were swayed by Ye Kehuan¡¯s hype.


    And the one who disliked Ye Kehuan most was probably Ye Kehuan¡¯s rival Cheng Yan.


    The TV series starring Cheng Yan had come to an end. It should have been a very happy thing. The whole crew were happily preparing to attend a celebration dinner, but she was the only one who had an unhappy and dark face there. Swiping through her phone with an ugly face, the atmosphere among the crew also became weird.


    Why do you hate Ye Kehuan so much?


    In fact, there were two reasons. One was that when they first debuted, Ye Kehuan¡¯s profile hadn¡¯t been large at the time. Then, she saw a bunch of people putting Ye Kehuan in an edited video with herself. But they only talked about who Kehuan was and why she was so beautiful, and then completely ignored her.


    So at that time, she was a little upset with Ye Kehuan. It was not until two months later that Ye Kehuan¡¯s studio overhyped her, and then Ye Kehuan¡¯s performances were poor, and she was cast aside by everyone, that she was about to get over it and become happy.


    The second was about that show. Obviously, the program team got in touch with her in the beginning, but in the blink of an eye they gave up on her and chose Ye Kehuan. How could she be happy? Assuming that it was her who participated in the show, then the person who was occupying the hot search and inciting praise from the whole network should be herself!


    Thinking of this, Cheng Yan was quite irritable.


    At this moment, Cheng Yan¡¯s manager Liu Neng came from one side and sat down next to her, then tugged at the corner of her lips and said, ¡°Yanyan, don¡¯t care about her, even if she is a little popular now, so what? People are just taking advantage of the heat to watch the excitement. When the heat passes and the crowd disperses, if she still has no roles, she will still be forced to be slowly forgotten. In this entertainment industry, aren¡¯t there enough examples of this?¡±


    After listening, Cheng Yan choked for a long time, turned her head to the side, and said nothing.


    Then Liu Neng approached her ear again: ¡°Still unhappy? Then I will say something that will make you happy.¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Cheng Yan turned her head and looked at him.


    Liu Neng continued to speak: ¡°The next dual heroine movie ¡°Black Bites¡± directed by Chen Fei is already in the casting process.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Cheng Yan¡¯s interest was immediately mobilized.


    Who was Chen Fei? Chen Fei was a very well-known director in China. As long as the word film was mentioned, it would remind people of his kind of leading roles. Every film of his was almost always popular, and the people who participated in his movies were always at the top.


    However, it was not easy to become the heroine of Director Chen Fei, because he had never used people to act in his roles according to common sense. It would not matter if your acting skills were well received. Many of the actors he used were non-professionals. From the start, even if they did not have good acting skills, they must fit well with the character itself.


    Therefore, actors and celebrities who took the initiative to seek audition opportunities were always banging their heads repeatedly. Correspondingly, if Chen Fei took the initiative to ask you for an audition, it meant that there was a great possibility that you would join them.


    Liu Neng looked at Cheng Yan and continued: ¡°According to people in the circle, one of the heroines has been decided on: Jiang Laien.¡±


    ¡°What then?¡± Cheng Yan widened her eyes and continued to look at him.


    ¡°Then Director Chen contacted me today and asked you to audition tomorrow.¡± Liu Neng continued, ¡°Auditioning for the other heroine.¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard that, her eyes lit up. So, what that meant was¡­ If she was selected, she was very likely to squeeze onto the A-list?!


    ¡°Tomorrow at eight o¡¯clock in the morning, Room 2201. Hongyuan Building. Go.¡± After Liu Neng finished speaking, he smiled.


    When Cheng Yan heard this, she couldn¡¯t help raising her eyebrows, and the expression on her face finally eased.


    Yes, Liu Neng is right. I can¡¯t be angry with Ye Kehuan. In this circle, she still has to rely on her acting skills in the end, and everything else is only imaginary.


    So what about the booming variety show, just like that, could Ye Kehuan get an audition opportunity like this?


    Thinking of this, Cheng Yan became happy, and the smog on her face was swept away. Then she stood up, talking and laughing with the people in the crew.


    At this time, the other side.


    After Ye Kehuan finished filming her scene, she ran to the director again, watched the playback on the monitor, and wiped her sweat: ¡°Director, am I doing well?¡±


    The director looked at the monitor, looked at her again, and nodded: ¡°It¡¯s not bad. I think it¡¯s okay. The desperate look in her desperate eyes is really desperate!¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes lit up.


    ¡°Yes, yes, but the body language should not be so exaggerated.¡± The director said with a smile.


    ¡°Hey?¡± Ye Kehuan blinked.


    ¡°You think, what is it like when a person is pessimistic to the extreme? Would she keep doing all kinds of actions?¡± The director was well-informed.


    Ye Kehuan felt her chin and thought for a while, then suddenly became clear, and shook her head: ¡°No, maybe the muscles all over her body are still, or she can¡¯t gather her strength, so she just stands or sits there loosely.¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± the director smiled and folded his arms. ¡°Actually, I find you are quite savvy. It would be nice to be a monk like that halfway though!¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening, ¡°Then, want me to retake it?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, let¡¯s try another one!¡± The director nodded.


    In the blink of an eye, one day passed. Maybe it was because her enthusiasm was a hundred times stronger than before, or maybe because the director was not well-known, but he was very serious and not perfunctory. In general, Ye Kehuan felt that she had learned something.


    At 5:30 in the afternoon, the role played by Ye Kehuan was finished. After everyone on the crew said goodbye, Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief, and just got into the nanny car, and opened Weibo again.


    She was so grateful. After the show was broadcast, her company did not act stupidly!


    Then Ye Kehuan read through comments again.


    The number of comments on the post she made the last night had increased many times, as did the number of likes, and most of the hot comments were very similar to hers. For Ye Kehuan, this was truly a treat like never before in China.


    However, Ye Kehuan also understood very well that her current goodwill was only temporary and illusory. It could only be said that the positive enthusiasm about her had been raised, and the number of passers-by who had a good impression of her had increased, and the people who followed the trend to make her black had lessened, but most people were still just watching the excitement. There were not so many melon seeds who had turned into true fans. If she wanted to become really popular, she had to continue to work hard.


    However, she believed that she would be able to do it! It was just that in the previous years, she was too easily swayed by outside voices and her own emotions, so she could not control her acting skills, but now, she had figured out that everything was imaginary, and would be fine as long as she calmed down. Just like doing that show, she had to take it step by step, and there would be no problems.


    After browsing, Ye Kehuan also discovered that someone on Weibo had already set up a ¡°Ye Kehuan Support Club¡± for her; probably because it was just established, there were not many people in it.


    The avatar for the club was a profile photo of her, which looked a bit heroic.


    Ye Kehuan was startled when she saw it, and immediately clicked in. There was a fan group number at the top of Weibo, under which read ¡°If you want to protect our girl Kehuan with us, and grow up with her, then come join us! (Haters, please take a detour--see one, kick one!)


    Unbelievably, she also got a support club and fan group, You know, Ye Kehuan used to have only black fan clubs and the like. After paying attention to the support club, Ye Kehuan clenched her fists, and her determination to rise became more resolute!


    Swiping and swiping, at that moment, her agent Cheng Xin called.


    So Ye Kehuan immediately answered the phone: ¡°Sister Cheng?¡±


    In the next second, Cheng Xin¡¯s voice came from the phone: ¡°You got to bed early today, and then get up early tomorrow, and come to the Hongyuan Building 2201 at 8 o¡¯clock to audition!¡±


    Sister Cheng¡¯s voice revealed a feeling of urgency, which made people feel ¡°bang¡± and miss half the words.


    ¡°Audition?¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help being stunned.


    So, in the next second, Sister Cheng rushed out a long paragraph again: ¡°Yes, Director Chen Fei just called and contacted us, saying that he is going to let you participate for the second female lead of his movie ¡°Black Bites¡±. You are auditioning for the role of Su He!¡±


    Chen Fei! ! !


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she was stunned!


    The author has something to say: Thank you for your support! Reminder~ There are red envelopes in the first three chapters after V~

 CH 22

    ¡°You mean, he asked me to audition?¡± Ye Kehuan asked incredulously.


    ¡°Yes, so, you rest early today, and don¡¯t stay up too late! It¡¯s a pity that I¡¯m out of town now, otherwise I would accompany you to the audition.¡± Cheng Xin said.


    ¡°Good!¡± Ye Kehuan squeezed the phone in her hand and nodded.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯m going to get busy first. Go back and take a look at the script lines used in the audition that I sent you in my email and practice, and then go to bed early.¡± Cheng Xin said.


    ¡°Well, goodbye.¡± Even after hanging up, Ye Kehuan still couldn¡¯t recover. After finally regaining consciousness, Ye Kehuan laughed happily.


    Great, I must seize this great opportunity that fell from the sky!


    So, after returning home, Ye Kehuan ate something simple that night, and then pondered the character of Su He.


    After thinking about it, Ye Kehuan still sent a message to Jiang Laien before going to bed: ¡°Director Chen contacted me for an audition at 8 o¡¯clock tomorrow morning!¡±


    After a moment, Jiang Laien replied: ¡°How is it, are you happy?¡±


    Ye Kehuan lay on the bed and smiled: ¡°Happy, I have never thought that I would have such a chance. I was just a little afraid of **** up, so I was still thinking about how to play this role.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous, you can act however you want.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°I¡¯ll¡­try my best.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°However, if you are really nervous, I can also audition with you.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she was stunned, and then hurriedly said, ¡°Yes, can you? Are you busy?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°I¡¯m not busy anymore. Actually, I¡¯m already in Morikawa now, but my mother came suddenly, so I had to go shopping with her. I will come and audition with you tomorrow morning. After the audition, we will go out. What do you think of relaxing by eating, drinking, and playing?¡±


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she raised her lips: ¡°Okay!¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan searched for interesting places nearby, memorized them one by one, and then slowly fell asleep.


    Early the next morning, after Ye Kehuan got up under the influence of the alarm clock, she quickly washed up, changed her clothes, and then dressed in a simple dress. Jiang Laien, who had rushed over, headed towards the building with her bare face.


    Along the way, Ye Kehuan was restless, like a student preparing to take the college entrance examination.


    ¡°I found that I was still a little nervous.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be nervous, you can do it.¡± Jiang Laien leaned over as she spoke and helped her tidy up her collar.


    A fragrant smell came, and Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s delicate eyebrows and swallowed involuntarily.


    In the blink of an eye, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien arrived at the Hongyuan Building together.


    ¡°Then I will go to the acquaintance''s lobby and wait for you.¡± When she arrived near 2201, Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go out and relax together after the audition.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    ¡°Good!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded again.


    So, next, Jiang Laien waited in a rest area outside, while Ye Kehuan hurriedly entered room 2201.


    After entering, the first room was the reception room, and there was a small room tens of meters on the left hand side, with a staff standing next to it; it should be the real audition room.


    ¡°Miss Ye Kehuan.¡± At this moment, a staff member respectfully stood next to Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Hello.¡± Ye Kehuan bowed slightly to him.


    ¡°Come here and sit for a while.¡± The staff member pointed to a sofa next to him.


    ¡°Okay, thank you.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily.


    Then, Ye Kehuan turned her head and found that there were already close to ten actors sitting on the sofa. Among them, Ye Kehuan had never seen many, but that was not surprising. After all, Chen Fei¡¯s selection of people was sometimes so weird. Two of them were already familiar faces, and they belonged to the kind that were solid, but not popular. In addition, there was another one--Cheng Yan.


    Before Ye Kehuan came in, everyone was still chatting or something, but after Ye Kehuan came in, everyone stopped talking and looked at each other.


    Cheng Yan even wrote ¡°incredible¡± on her face. She suddenly wondered if she was entwined with Ye Kehuan¡¯s horoscope, otherwise, why would Ye Kehuan stick to her back no matter where she went.1


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, and then put on a soft smile: ¡°Hello everyone, I am Ye Kehuan!¡±


    ¡°Hello¡­¡± Everyone greeted her one after another, and looked her up and down.


    Ye Kehuan looked down at the sofa, and finally sat down in the empty seat next to Cheng Yan, and smiled and said hello to Cheng Yan: ¡°We met again.¡±


    After Cheng Yan listened, a smile appeared on her face, and she said with a hint of sarcasm: ¡°Yes, what a coincidence. I really didn¡¯t expect to meet you here at Director Chen¡¯s.¡±


    It probably means that you will appear here as rubbish. What kind of **** luck is this?


    After listening, Ye Kehuan simply smiled: ¡°I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here.¡±


    After listening to this, the smile on Cheng Yan¡¯s face almost fell apart. What did Ye Kehuan mean, was she also saything that she was not worthy to audition?


    ¡°Then let¡¯s work hard together.¡± Cheng Yan twitched her lips, and later she vowed she was going to let Ye Kehuan see what it meant to be an actress and what it meant to be trash. Ye Kehuan¡¯s poor acting skills weren¡¯t her opponent at all.


    Then everyone started to chat again.


    Auditioner 1: ¡°What should I do, I¡¯m so nervous before it even starts.¡±


    Auditioner 2: ¡°Me too, I have no acting experience¡­¡±


    Cheng Yan smiled after hearing this, ¡°I heard that Director Chen is very strict.¡±


    She was particularly good at fighting psychological warfare. It would be very beneficial to her to preemptively disrupt the enemy¡¯s mentality and let the enemy perform poorly.


    Sure enough, as soon as Cheng Yan said those words, the few people shivered even more.


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she smiled: ¡°It¡¯s okay. Director Chen often uses newcomers. He often values aura over plasticity!¡±


    Therefore, the newcomers looked at Ye Kehuan, breathed out sighs of relief, and nodded: ¡°Thank you, Sister Kehuan, for your comfort. I don¡¯t seem to be nervous anymore.¡±


    Cheng Yan glanced at Ye Kehuan and frowned.


    At this moment, an actor who was known for having acting skills but had not been popular, spoke again from the side: ¡°Kehuan is right. Director Chen will be like that, hey¡­ I suddenly became a little nervous. I¡¯ve been in this circle for so long, and still¡­¡±


    Cheng Yan turned her head to look at her, smiled again, and continued her psychological warfare: ¡°It¡¯s quite difficult, as Kehuan said. In front of Director Chen, you won¡¯t know if you have any qualifications.¡±


    After the actor listened, her eyes dimmed, and she shook her head and began to sigh.


    Upon seeing this, Ye Kehuan laughed again and comforted her: ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s okay. Director Chen treats others equally. He once used a man who had always been tepid to star in a movie. Later, he got a lot of awards.¡±


    Like a word to wake up a dreamer, the actor¡¯s eyes reignited.


    For a while, Cheng Yan was so angry that she almost wanted to vomit blood. Was this Ye Kehuan doing this specifically against herself?! What was more annoying is that in that short period of time, Ye Kehuan had even become friendly with her competitors, and everyone even started to boast that Ye Kehuan was there!


    This woman is really scheming! Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help but think to herself.


    In the blink of an eye, it was time.


    Then, the door to 2201 was pushed open, and the director, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a black peaked cap, and several other people walked in hurriedly. 2


    In an instant, everyone there stood up, and Ye Kehuan also stood up and bowed slightly to him.


    Director Chen nodded, and then walked into the small room on the left with the people around him, and it was just them again.


    All of a sudden, the atmosphere became more tense.


    But Ye Kehuan was more relaxed. She had gone through many bad things, so where would she go bad next? If she couldn¡¯t seize this opportunity, it just meant that her ability was not high enough.


    In the blink of an eye, the audition began, and after the first one was called, she was taken into the small room.


    Twenty minutes later, she came out. She didn¡¯t seem to be in a good condition, but she took her belongings and left without saying a word. Then, the second person¡¯s situation wasn¡¯t any better. When she came out, she just pressed her lips and said to everyone: ¡°Good luck, you guys,¡± and then left crying.


    For a while, everyone panicked. It seemed that Director Chen was really a bit scary.


    The next few were almost the same, and soon it was Cheng Yan¡¯s turn to audition.


    So after Cheng Yan stood up gracefully, she walked towards the door and entered the room under the guidance of the staff.


    After Cheng Yan entered, the people in Room 2201 sighed one after another. They only felt that the waiting was very painful.


    This time, it took a long time. About thirty minutes later, the door opened and Cheng Yan walked out with a big smile, a completely different appearance from the people who had left before.


    It looked like she was full of confidence. At the same time, when everyone saw Cheng Yan¡¯s appearance, they became less confident, and they began to discuss in a low voice.


    Auditioner 1: ¡°Cheng Yan should be pretty good, she¡¯s a superstar!¡±


    Auditioner 2: ¡°Yes, and she has been so popular recently¡­¡±


    After Cheng Yan came out, she smiled and looked at everyone: ¡°Then, I will go first. Everyone, good luck.¡±


    After speaking, Cheng Yan took her bag and walked out with swaying steps.


    At this time, the people in the small room were already making various comments about her performance just then.


    The small flat head next to Director Chen smiled: ¡°It is indeed Cheng Yan. The expressiveness was really good.¡±


    Then, another person nodded: ¡°Yes, I think she was really the best performer among the few people just now. She is a good seed.¡±


    After that, another person echoed: ¡°It¡¯s really a pleasure to watch her acting. Isn¡¯t it, Director Chen?¡±


    However, Chen Fei was just touching his chin with a cold expression: ¡°Oh, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    After the assistant heard Chen Fei¡¯s words, his smile gradually disappeared: ¡°Difficult, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    After listening, Chen Fei let out a professional ¡°haha¡± for a moment, and then his face instantly became sharp: ¡°Next.¡±


    At this moment, Ye Kehuan, who was drinking water in the reception room, immediately stood up and walked over there when she heard the staff call her name.


    After entering the small room, she saw that it was set up like a studio. Chen Fei, the screenwriter, and other staff were all in it, turning over her information in silence, which seemed to make people jumpy.


    After a while, Chen Fei raised his head, pushed his glasses, looked at Ye Kehuan from head to toe, and then nodded.


    Ye Kehuan sat there, staring a little vacantly at him.


    Then Chen Fei spoke with a faint voice: ¡°Let¡¯s start. Act as Su He eating noodles and watching her own scandal news on TV.


    There were no props on the scene. It could be said that everything depended on imagination. Don¡¯t worry, how do you usually eat noodles, let¡¯s act today!


    After listening, Ye Kehuan was taken aback, then raised her hand, making a gesture of holding a bowl of with one hand and a gesture of holding chopsticks with the other, then lowered her head to slurp the non-existent noodles, and then looked up at the non-existent TV on the opposite side. Then she pushed the hair that had fallen to her chest back to her ears.


    Chen Fei¡¯s lips curled when he saw Ye Kehuan tilting her head. Yes, girls with long hair tended to brush back their hair when they ate. However, Chen Fei didn¡¯t expect Ye Kehuan to grasp those details. After all, the scene he gave was very rough, and there was no such content at all.


    Then, Ye Kehuan, who was watching TV, rolled her eyes again, burped, scolded a few unscrupulous media, and burped again, then shrugged her shoulders and raised the soup to her mouth and blew on it. The essence of eating noodle soup with a bad temper was performed.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan ¡°drank¡± two mouthfuls of noodle soup, put down her chopsticks, and bowl in relief, and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand: ¡°I¡¯m so cool!¡±


    The whole performance was very short. However, afterwards, Chen Fei, who hadn¡¯t expected Ye Kehuan to be good, was completely stunned, his eyes almost shining!


    The author has something to say: After V the first three chapters leave a red envelope!


    TL/N


    1 - When someone gets mad, they frown, causing their brow to furrow. This is referred to in a lot of Chinese literature as causing ¡°black lines to form¡±. This is further derivated to those black lines linking together to create a character on the person¡¯s forehead.


    2 - Describing a police/military hat. Just look it up using those words, you¡¯ll get the right image.

 CH 23

    Next, Ye Kehuan performed several more prompts, with more lines than before, but Ye Kehuan had perfectly memorized the lines, and her performance was also very vivid. Chen Fei was dumbfounded, and not just Chen Fei, even the others thought she was very good.


    Chen Fei thought about it, and if he remembered correctly, he called Ye Kehuan for an audition on a whim. In other words, Ye Kehuan¡¯s preparation time was actually very short, but she was able to do this in a short time. It was unimaginable to be so good.


    Sure enough, Jiang Laien had said that Ye Kehuan had a high degree of affinity with the character, and she was indeed sincere and did not deceive him.


    Chen Fei stopped talking, and Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what Chen Fei was thinking. She just curled her hair and stood there awkwardly. Then, when Chen Fei looked at her, she smirked again: ¡°It¡¯s done? Or do you want me to continue acting?¡±


    Finally, Chen Fei nodded: ¡°Yes, not bad, you go back and wait for a message.¡±


    When the assistant director heard Chen Fei¡¯s words, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at him. It seemed that Director Chen was planning to use Ye Kehuan. After all, a characteristic of Director Chen was that if one fails their audition, he would either say, ¡°I think you may be more suitable to audition for XX drama¡± after the audition, or simply say, ¡°I think you are not very suitable for this role.¡± But if he was serious about someone, he would put on a paralyzed face and say, ¡°It¡¯s good, you go back first¡±--just like he did with Cheng Yan. It showed he was thinking about it, but he was not totally satisfied.


    Therefore, for Chen Fei to say, ¡°Go back and wait for a message¡± to Ye Kehuan showed that the really liked Ye Kehuan.


    When Ye Kehuan heard it, she hurriedly bowed, ¡°Okay Director Chen, then I will go back first.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan walked towards the door with a smile on the corners of her mouth. As a result, a staff member pushed in the door at the same time and hit her. The staff had not reacted yet, but Ye Kehuan had already touched her forehead and kept bowing, ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡±, which caused everyone in the room to let out a low laugh.


    ¡°Like a silly roe deer.¡± Chen Fei lifted his eyes and glanced at her back, then smiled and shook his head.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this Su He, haha.¡± The assistant director replied with a smile.


    After Ye Kehuan left the small room, she hung her bag on her shoulders, then looked at the people remaining in the room, sighed, and finally walked forward with clenched fists: ¡°I have to go now, sisters. Duck!¡±


    The remaining auditioners nodded: ¡°Yeah!¡±


    Then Ye Kehuan opened the door and walked out.


    That was the first time in her life that she had come into contact with such a big director. Originally, she thought that a big director would eat people like a big tiger, but when she came, she realized that it was not like that. Although he had a poker face, it wasn¡¯t the same. It wasn¡¯t scary, and he was pretty easy-going.


    I don¡¯t know if I can be selected. In short, Ye Kehuan was in a very beautiful mood now.


    After exiting the door, Ye Kehuan sent a message to Jiang Laien: ¡°I finished my audition, where are you?¡±


    In the next second, Jiang Laien replied: ¡°Okay, I am here in the 2015 room.¡±


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll come over right away!¡± After Ye Kehuan saw the message, she pulled the strap of her bag and put a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. After putting on a hat, she stretched her legs and walked quickly towards 2015.


    When she got there, she saw Jiang Laien, who was wearing a small white suspender and gray-blue wide-leg pants, had just come out of it, and was now bowing her head to close the door.


    Ye Kehuan hurriedly sorted her collar, and then looking up, she saw Jiang Laien turning her head and looking at her, so she put her hand down again.


    Under her fluffy hair and sunglasses, Jiang Laien¡¯s originally small face now looked more compact, while her soft red lips and pointed chin were particularly noticeable.


    ¡°How do you feel?¡± Jiang Laien asked, tilting her head.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know whether they are satisfied with me. Anyway, I tried my best.¡± Ye Kehuan stroked the straps of her bag, with a clear smile, ¡°I think I did a good job, but the result doesn¡¯t matter what I think.¡±


    ¡°Yes, it is important to maintain a good attitude at all times, otherwise things will get worse and worse,¡± Jiang Laien smiled and curled her lips, ¡°I am optimistic about you.¡±


    As the saying goes, people are prone to make mistakes in three situations: love, hate, and ignorance.


    For example, back then, because Ye Kehuan fell in love, she was just like that, always making mistakes, so after she became sober, she kept thinking about this warning.


    In fact, nothing could be done too hastily, otherwise, it would easily lead to a big mistake, and then one wrong step would lead to another, and it would be difficult to turn right. This is true in love or a career.


    ¡°Yes!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, then looked down at the time. ¡°Ah, time flies so fast, it¡¯s eleven o¡¯clock now. What do you want to eat? I searched and found several stores last night, and they all seem pretty good. Look, look.¡±


    While Ye Kehuan was talking, she opened all the stores collected in an App on her mobile phone, and then showed them to Jiang Laien.


    Finally free, they could finally have some time where the two of them belonged only to each other.


    However, just when Jiang Laien was about to look over, the door of Room 2015 opened again, and then a woman wearing a white halter jumpsuit and brown-red retro inner-buckle short hair came out.


    The woman had a three-dimensional face with delicate makeup, a silver prismatic purse hung off her wrist, and a pair of beige pointed high heels on her feet, which made her look very tall and compelling.


    So, was Jiang Laien playing with this woman just now? Ye Kehuan pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose.


    ¡°You haven¡¯t left yet?¡± The woman asked with a smile after seeing Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan.


    The voice was quite like a princess¡¯, and with that smile, she looked even more imperious.


    ¡°We are ready to go, why are you coming out now?¡± Jiang Laien looked sideways at her.


    ¡°Just now, there was a flash of inspiration, and I finished the design that had tortured me for a few days.¡± The woman smiled.


    ¡°That¡¯s good, so you can rest.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Ye Kehuan stood there, looked at them, and then looked at the time, coughing from time to time.


    ¡°By the way, let me introduce you. This is a friend from outside the circle, Lu An, who is an original fashion designer.¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien pulled Ye Kehuan by the corner of her clothes and pointed at Lu An. Looking at Lu An again: ¡°This is my friend, Ye Kehuan.¡±


    After listening, Lu An smiled and stretched out her hand: ¡°Fortunately, we were lucky to meet.¡±


    ¡°Hello¡­¡± Ye Kehuan shook her hand.


    ¡°By the way, are you going to have lunch now?¡± Lu An asked again.


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°I am planning to go.¡±


    ¡°Haha, do you mind picking me up?¡± Lu An continued to ask.


    ¡°Girl¡­¡± Ye Kehuan also spat out a word, but then before she could cause an accident, she looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Mind what, of course I won¡¯t mind, right?¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien was stunned for a second, and then she lifted the corners of her lips, not smiling: ¡°Yes, we don¡¯t mind, let¡¯s go together.¡±


    ¡°Okay, there is a nice western restaurant nearby. I want to go there, how about you?¡± Lu An asked again.


    ¡°Then we¡¯ll go there.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    Ye Kehuan also nodded, without saying much although she actually minded very much. She obviously only wanted to play with Jiang Laien. After all, time was precious, and they would continue to record the reality show the next day. What¡¯s more, she had made a lot of strategies in order to play with Jiang Laien, but now she felt that those strategies were no longer needed.


    After that, Lu An stroked her hair casually and pulled Jiang Laien¡¯s arm: ¡°Then, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at Lu An and Jiang Laien¡¯s arms holding each other, feeling flustered in her heart, but also feeling that she was insane. What¡¯s the matter, people are not allowed to have friends anymore? If you don¡¯t accept it, you can go up and hold Jiang Laien. But Ye Kehuan still chose to put her hands in her pockets, and even she didn¡¯t know how awkward she was.


    In the blink of an eye, the three of them arrived at the restaurant, which was very magnificently decorated. Because it was a work day, and it was quite expressive, for the moment, there were not many people in it.


    Under the guidance of a waiter, the three of them took their seats in a box on the second floor and began to order their meals. After Jiang Laien and Lu An finished ordering one after another, Ye Kehuan began ordering.


    However, at that moment, Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that she didn¡¯t want to eat anything. Everything on the menu became unattractive. At that time, she was like a pervert, listening to Jiang Laien and Lu An chat with cupped ears.


    The two of them seemed to have a very good chat. They talked about manicures for a while, and then makeup for a while, almost all topics involving Ye Kehuan¡¯s blind spot of knowledge. Yes, Ye Kehuan lived a rough life, as if she was raised as a boy by her family since she was a child.


    Were Jiang Laien and Lu An so happy to chat?


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s mind became more and more chaotic. She was clearly holding the menu, but she didn¡¯t know what she was looking at.


    At this time, the waiter intimately asked Ye Kehuan again: ¡°Hello, do you want me to recommend anything?¡±


    ¡°A yellow braised chicken.¡± Ye Kehuan said in an expressionless voice.


    Jiang Laien and Lu An couldn¡¯t help but look at her.


    The waiter also opened his mouth in a daze, as if shocked: ¡°Sorry, we don¡¯t have that one here.¡±


    Ye Kehuan came back to her senses and changed her words: ¡°Tomahawk steak and summer rose special drink.¡±


    ¡°Okay, a Tomahawk steak and a cup of summer rose, please wait a moment.¡± After the waiter finished speaking, he walked out politely.


    At this time, Lu An looked at Ye Kehuan and smiled: ¡°Miss Ye is quite humorous.¡±


    Ye Kehuan cleared her throat and held up a glass of water: ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡±


    At this time, Jiang Laien gently tapped on her arm: ¡°What¡¯s the matter, it feels like you have been out of it.¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback, and hurriedly shook her head to deny, ¡°I feel only calm, like Dinghai Shenzhen.¡± 1


    ¡°Really?¡± Jiang Laien asked suspiciously.


    ¡°Of course.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t speak anymore, but looked at Ye Kehuan with her hands on her cheeks.


    In the blink of an eye, lunch was finished. Originally, Ye Kehuan thought that that was the end and that Lu An would go back, but what she didn¡¯t expect was that Lu An then proposed to visit a mall.


    So, they went to the mall together¡­


    That stroll took more than two hours. When she came out, Lu An had a few more bags on her hands, all of which were her trophies.


    But it wasn¡¯t over yet. Next, Lu An took them to watch a movie. The movie was very thought-provoking but boring and long. After Ye Kehuan dozed off four or five times, it was finally over. She opened her eyes and looked at the cast at the end of the film, expressionless.


    ¡°I¡¯m a little hungry, do you want to eat dinner now?¡± Lu An asked again this time.


    Ye Kehuan, who was rubbing her eyes and yawning, suddenly stopped.


    Then, half an hour later, they sat down in a Chinese restaurant and ordered four dishes and one soup. In addition, Lu An ordered a bottle of wine and a small bottle of liquor.


    Ye Kehuan was not in a good state the whole time, probably because she was not happy, but felt that she had no reason to be unhappy at all, so she was very conflicted. Finally, after a bite of the food, her eyes focused on the wine.


    ¡°Miss Ye wants to drink too?¡± Lu An asked.


    After Ye Kehuan heard this, she simply nodded: ¡°Drink!¡±


    Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows and reminded her: ¡°You, don¡¯t drink too much.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Just a little bit.¡±


    So Lu An asked the waiter to bring a glass over, and then poured a glass of wine for Ye Kehuan.


    After Ye Kehuan took it, she took a sip, frowned, and then began to pour her second and third cups¡­


    Jiang Laien looked at her thoughtfully.


    Since her alcohol tolerance wasn¡¯t too good, and she drank a little too much, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t walk steadily after the meal was over.


    After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, Jiang Laien could only hold her waist firmly and looked at Lu An: ¡°Then I will go first, see you next time.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Lu An smiled. ¡°See you next time.¡±


    Then, Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief, got Ye Kehuan into the car, and helped her fasten her seat belt.


    ¡°Really, you drank so much even though I told you not to¡­¡± Jiang Laien fastned her seat belt as she spoke.


    ¡°I¡¯m not drunk yet¡­¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and slurred her words.


    ¡°Is this called not yet?¡± Jiang Laien asked amusedly.


    ¡°No!¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly stretched out her hand. ¡°Crabs have eight claws and they are so big with pointed ends. With eyes wide and neck shrinking, they crawl across the sand¡­ Shahe!¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien was stunned for a while, and finally smiled and shook her head, and then drove the car to the small villa.


    It was after nine o¡¯clock in the evening when they got home, and she stopped the car. After Jiang Laien got her out, she walked with great difficulty to the door and opened it.


    People who are drunk are really heavy; Jiang Laien felt as if her arms would be ruined by her in minutes.


    ¡°God¡­¡± Jiang Laien carried Ye Kehuan vigorously, closed her eyes and let out a sigh, and then dragged her into the door with the strength of break and milk.


    She vowed that she would never let Ye Kehuan drink half a drop of wine in the future.


    After struggling to hold Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien closed the door and took her to the sofa with labored steps.


    ¡°You¡­ You sit here for a while, and I will take you upstairs after I have the strength¡­¡± Jiang Laien panted, while preparing to put her on the sofa.


    However, the moment when she put down Ye Kehuan, she didn¡¯t pay attention and she fell on the sofa first. Then, because she was holding Ye Kehuan with her hand, Ye Kehuan also fell down instantly.


    ¡°Bad¡­¡± In the next second, Jiang Laien hadn¡¯t finished speaking when her next words were blocked by a pair of warm and soft lips.

 CH 24

    The atmosphere became a little weird for a while, and there seemed to be some restless factors in the air constantly moving.


    Every nerve of Jiang Laien seemed to be affected by her. Before she knew it, she seemed to be drowning in it, feeling as if she was expecting something and longing for more to come.


    After a moment, Ye Kehuan slowly opened her eyes and squinted at the woman in front of her. Ye Kehuan, who was dunking, had a heavy body, a heavier head, and even heavier breathing. She didn¡¯t even know what she was doing.


    ¡°Yes, Kehuan?¡± After Jiang Laien found out that she opened her eyes, she suddenly didn¡¯t know what to do, but just supported herself on the sofa cushion with her palms.


    ¡°...Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s nasal voice sounded, and she moved closer to her.


    Jiang Laien looked at her, swallowed involuntarily in her throat, and then indescribable pictures passed through her mind one after another.


    Seeing the distance getting closer, however, Ye Kehuan went unstable again and slid down towards the ground uncontrollably.


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Laien hurriedly grabbed her hand, trying to stop her from falling, but in the end she couldn¡¯t hold her, and they both fell to the ground.


    After Jiang Laien turned over and sat up, she looked at the eyebrows of the sleeping Ye Kehuan, and she couldn¡¯t help but be stunned.


    ¡°If I let you get so drunk again, I¡¯ll be a pig.¡± Jiang Laien closed her eyes, shook her head, grabbed Ye Kehuan¡¯s arm, and put it around her shoulder.


    After that, Jiang Laien continued to drink milk to bring Ye Kehuan upstairs.


    Although I am very conscious as an actress, and I often go the the gym, and my physique is not weak, even compared to a fat aunty, I can still compete, but this is still too difficult.


    At that moment, the entire image of the goddess she had worked so hard to manage over the years disappeared instantly.


    Jiang Laien vowed that she would install an elevator in her small villa after she finished her work and went back. She always felt that the indoor elevator was tasteless and hypocritical, but now it seemed that it was simply a godsend in a critical moment.


    It took about twenty minutes. Finally, Jiang Laien put Ye Kehuan into the bed in the bedroom while sweating.


    After turning on the central air conditioner for Ye Kehuan¡¯s room, Jiang Laien stood there for a while and went back to her bedroom to quickly take a shower and cool her head.


    After her whole body became refreshed, Jiang Laien opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of cold milk and poured several mouthfuls in one breath, before finally feeling that her life was saved.


    Then Jiang Laien took out the script and pondered it. She played the role of Qi Luo, a role she had never thought about playing--a female ghost--because she was afraid of ghosts. And, in fact, in the beginning, Jiang Laien was a bit hesitant to accept the script, but for Ye Kehuan, she still accepted it.


    But while looking at it, Jiang Laien was a little distracted, and she couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her hand and stroke her lips. Why did Ye Kehuan kiss her? Was it because she was drunk? Or because of¡­


    Thinking about the closeness between them just now, Jiang Laien felt her body warm again, so she lowered the air conditioner by two degrees. But even so, it still couldn¡¯t hide a certain feeling of emptiness.


    In the end, Jiang Laien still held the milk and walked to the door of Ye Kehuan¡¯s bedroom. She reached out and knocked on the door: ¡°Kehuan?¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­¡± A dumb voice came from the room.


    ¡°I¡¯m here?¡± Jiang Laien held the door handle.


    ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    So, with a ¡°click¡±, Jiang Laien opened the door.


    After the door was opened, she found Ye Kehuan on the bed, still in the same posture that she had left her in, but with a hand on her forehead, and her brows were also furrowed.


    Jiang Laien looked at her for a while, then pursed her lips, walked over, and said: ¡°If you don¡¯t have a bath¡­ Will you be uncomfortable? It should be uncomfortable just to get yourself drunk. Would you like to take a bath?¡±


    A half-dreaming and half-awake Ye Kehuan nodded again: ¡°Hmm¡­¡±


    ¡°Okay¡­¡± Jiang Laien said softly, and after looking around, she put the milk in her hand on a small table, and then pulled Ye Kehuan¡¯s arm again and put it on her shoulder, preparing to take her to the bathroom.


    Although Ye Kehuan was heavy, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but curl the corners of her lips, and subconsciously hugged Ye Kehuan tighter.


    After putting Ye Kehuan into the bathtub, Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s toiletries and asked, ¡°Are you not liking of Lu An? Or, do you not like to have people you don¡¯t know walk with us? Or, is there something bothering you?¡±


    But this time, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t answer at all, as if she was asleep.


    Jiang Laien turned around with the shower gel, looked at her for a long time, then walked a few steps towards her, and then whispered: ¡°Then, if you want to take a shower, I¡¯ll take them off for you, you don¡¯t mind?¡±


    Ye Kehuan still didn¡¯t respond.


    Then, Jiang Laien took a small stool and sat down beside the bathtub, put the shower gel aside, and reached out for Ye Kehuan¡¯s collar.


    When her fingertips touched her button, Jiang Laien stared at her neckline for a long time, then raised her eyes to look at her face, then blushed and unbuttoned the first button, and continued to ask: ¡°Are you used to the water cooler or warmer?¡±


    After Jiang Laien unbuttoned the first button for her, she began to undo the second one.


    However, at this moment, Ye Kehuan suddenly moved her eyebrows, stretched out her hands and rubbed her temples somewhat uncomfortably, and said in a daze, ¡°...what?¡±


    Jiang Laien stopped her hand: ¡°Are you sober?¡±


    However, in the next second, Ye Kehuan shook her head for a while and nodded. It seemed that she did not wake up, but continued to be confused.


    Jiang Laien was taken aback for a moment, and then continued to stretch out her hand.


    However, Jiang Laien found that her mind became more chaotic than before, and she felt like there was nowhere to start.


    After tossing around for more than an hour, Jiang Laien finally got Ye Kehuan clean and came out. For more than an hour, for her, it was simply torturous physical work, yet at the same time¡­


    Who could be upset when facing a fragrant and soft girl? What¡¯s more, the other party was still a person she liked, and so the difficulty had increased by several levels.


    After taking Ye Kehuan to bed, Jiang Laien returned to the bathroom, ready to turn off the lights.


    However, what she didn¡¯t expect was that when Jiang Laien turned off the bathroom lights, she suddenly heard Ye Kehuan, lying on the other side of the bed, muttering: ¡°Silly roe deer.¡±


    Hearing this, Jiang Laien was stunned, then walked over, sat next to her, and asked softly: ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Silly roe deer.¡± Ye Kehuan was completely unaware of the fact that she used the nickname she gave to others to scold her in a sleepy way.


    After listening, Jiang Laien thought for a while before she suddenly realized.


    So Ye Kehuan looks so abnormal today because of Lu An? Why don¡¯t you like her?


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien leaned over to the bedside: ¡°You were so depressed today. It¡¯s really because you don¡¯t like her. Why don¡¯t you like her?¡±


    Is it because you don¡¯t want to share your space and time with others?


    At this moment, Ye Kehuan yawned lightly, did not answer, and went to sleep again.


    Jiang Laien looked at her for a long time, and then asked softly: ¡°Is it because you just want to play with me? You don¡¯t want other people to intrude?¡±


    Ye Kehuan did not answer.


    Jiang Laien sighed softly, then smiled lightly. Although a good friend was scolded and it seemed to be unkind to laugh at herself, but people who are in love would care about this kind of thing, and it still makes those people feel like they saw a glimmer of light, and it was hard to think about whether it was happy or not. After all, who doesn¡¯t want to be taken care of by their lover?


    Thinking of this, Jiang Laien raised her hand under her nose, smiled again, and then climbed onto the bed, lying on her side next to Ye Kehuan, looking at her sleeping face quietly with her hands on her back.


    I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on. They all say that if one person looks at another for a long time, she will never get tired of it, but Jiang Laien had never tired of seeing her. Regardless of her eyebrows, lips and nose, or face shape, Jiang Laien felt that she could stare for a hundred and eighty years without getting tired of them.


    After a while, Jiang Laien became a little sleepy and didn¡¯t want to move. After a light yawn, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    The night was getting darker, everything was silent, and the whole community seemed to have fallen into a dream, calm and peaceful.


    However, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t sleep well. She was like that every time she got drunk. Others might sleep until dawn, but she was in a half-dream half-awake state, and it seemed that she couldn¡¯t wake up, and she didn¡¯t seem to sleep well either. In her dreams, there were weird things. There were all kinds of messy things. So she turned over a lot, and the quilt was also covering her then kicked off sometimes.


    After Jiang Laien was awakened by the movement of Ye Kehuan¡¯s turning over, she realized that the distance between her and Ye Kehuan at that moment was very close. It was really the kind of distance that might happen if she didn¡¯t pay attention. Besides, they were still in such a place.


    ¡°Why?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her for a while, moved closer to her, raised her hands to caress her cheek. ¡°Why do you kiss me when you are drunk? Did you kiss others when you were drunk before? Some kind of drunken kiss frenzy?¡±


    Ye Kehuan frowned, still with eyes closed, and did not reply.


    Then Jiang Laien moved closer to her: ¡°Or you only kissed me?¡±


    Finally, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyelashes trembled and her eyes opened slightly.


    Jiang Laien stared at her eyebrows, and then tentatively, gently, kissed Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips.


    ¡°Lai¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned, a little confused whether this was reality or if it was some dream, but gradually, she closed her eyes and began to respond to Jiang Laien.


    After a while, Jiang Laien¡¯s heart was beating quickly, and then asked in a soft voice like a whisper: ¡°You seem to enjoy it. Do you like kissing me?¡±


    The author has something to say: Happy National Day!

 CH 25

    Jiang Laien¡¯s fingertips lightly pressed on Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips, and her eyes took on a watery cast.


    Ye Kehuan only felt that her whole body was burning. However, when faced with Jiang Laien¡¯s question, she couldn¡¯t answer a word. She just looked at her with blurred eyes, then leaned forward and kissed regardless. Claiming her lips.


    The night was getting deeper and deeper, and everything should have been quiet, but some of the restlessness that was concealed under the blanket of night was becoming more and more difficult to suppress¡­


    When she woke up, it was 7:30 in the morning, and the alarm was particularly piercing. Ye Kehuan raised her hand and rubbed her head. After taking her phone, she looked at her eyes for a while, then turned it off and threw it aside.


    At that moment, she couldn¡¯t remember anything, but vaguely felt that something was still blurred deep in her brain, and she felt very uncomfortable.


    After squinting on the bed for a while, Ye Kehuan finally opened the warm quilt with amazing perseverance and sat up.


    After that, Ye Kehuan sat on the side of the bed and spent a while, then finally stood up and walked to the huge window to do some stretching exercises.


    After doing the exercises, Ye Kehuan opened half the window, smelling the sobering air outside, and listening to the crisp chirping of birds. Her originally blank brain and nerves were slowly entering recovery mode.


    What did I do last night? Why am I back here at dawn all of a sudden? Last night¡­ If you remember, it seems you were drinking¡­ Then, was Jiang Laien bringing her back?


    Next, Ye Kehuan went into the bathroom to prepare to wash, and then found that she was not wearing the same set of clothes that she wore when she went out yesterday, but a set of pajamas with neatly buttoned buttons.


    Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded. Did Jiang Laien put these clothes on me?


    Then, Ye Kehuan quickly finished brushing her teeth and changed her clothes. She hurriedly left the bedroom and walked to the door of Jiang Laien¡¯s bedroom. She reached out and knocked on the door: ¡°Laien? Are you up? Are you inside?¡±


    However, no one answered her.


    So Ye Kehuan ran down the stairs while pulling her hair behind her ears.


    As soon as she walked into the hall, a sizzling sound came from the kitchen. So Ye Kehuan hurried to the kitchen.


    In the kitchen, Jiang Laien was wearing a small sling while standing in front of the stove and frying eggs. The small sling was satin, pink, and had a very gentle and elegant appearance, and at the same time it made her skin look extra soft.


    The fog in the morning had not yet completely dissipated, and the sunlight shining in from the curtains was still somewhat cold. Jiang Laien bathed in it, looking like a woman from a painting.


    The moment Ye Kehuan saw her, her brain exploded again.


    Speaking of which, last night, I seemed to dream of her in those messy dreams, and dreamed of her many times. In the dream, I hugged and kissed her. It felt so real¡­


    But how could it be true? It was impossible, Jiang Laien¡­ Jiang Laien was her friend. Besides, she was also a woman¡­


    When she was about to explode, Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that she was really too perverted, and even had those kinds of thoughts about her friend in a dream. Why on earth? Why did she have those evil thoughts about Jiang Laien again and again? Could it have been that she was single for too long?


    In short, she would never let Jiang Laien know about those dreams.


    After closing her eyes and letting out a sigh, Ye Kehuan finally walked towards Jiang Laien.


    After Jiang Laien heard Ye Kehuan¡¯s footsteps, she turned her head and looked at her.


    She didn¡¯t know if Ye Kehuan remembered what happened the previous night. In the end, Jiang Laien just pursed her lips and smiled: ¡°Wake up?¡±


    ¡°Ah¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second, then nodded, ¡°Well, that, did you run a bath for me last night?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°Otherwise? In the summer, you are all sweaty, so how can you not wash it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed after listening, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Jiang Laien smiled lightly, then carefully turned the egg in the pot, knocked on the side, and asked, ¡°You were quite drunk last night.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her, then turned around hurriedly.


    ¡°Well¡­ When I brought you back, it took a lot of time and effort. You don¡¯t know what happened¡­¡± Jiang Laien knocked on the side again.


    ¡°Happened¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded, and turned her head to look at her, ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t remember?¡± Jiang Laien beat an egg into the pot again.


    Ye Kehuan gulped: ¡°What?¡±


    Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that Ye Kehuan may really not remember.


    So Jiang Laien smiled and shook her head: ¡°I moved you from downstairs to upstairs and almost collapsed. At that time, I felt like I was dying. I was going to die, and you would be on the news.¡±


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief and smiled awkwardly: ¡°I won¡¯t drink anymore.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled again: ¡°Then how did you sleep last night?¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard that and her back went entirely stiff, and she looked at her from behind and coughed twice: ¡°Fortunately, I just seem to have had a lot of dreams.¡±


    ¡°Dreams?¡± Jiang Laien aimed at her. Could it be that Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t actually forget about kissing last night, but regarded it as a dream?


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing, that¡¯s it.¡± Ye Kehuan touched her earlobe. ¡°I just had dreams that I had never had before¡­¡±


    ¡°Really? What were they like?¡± Jiang Laien asked after pouring out the omelette and continued to make sandwiches.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her profile, and for a while, she remembered the touch when kissing her. It was a taboo feeling, but it was fascinating.


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan was a little scared.


    In the end, Ye Kehuan chose a relatively insignificant dream with a guilty conscience and said: ¡°I dreamed of a big monster eating at broadcasting. After picking me up with chopsticks, it said to everyone, ¡®I¡¯ll show you a headshot, please double-click 666¡¯, and then bit my head in one bite.¡±


    Jiang Laien made a sandwich and smiled again: ¡°Your dream is quite interesting, and most people really couldn¡¯t dream it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t pick up that topic anymore, and instead looked at the plate of small tomatoes cut into cold salad next to her: ¡°Why did you suddenly remember to make breakfast by yourself?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, she picked up a sandwich that had been cut into small pieces, and took a small steel fork, and turned around: ¡°After participating on the show, I suddenly felt that cooking was also interesting, and I wanted to do it myself too. When I do it, I can only make something simple and untechnical. It¡¯s just that the ingredients are bought from a 24-hour convenience store. They may not be so fresh, but they seem okay.¡±


    ¡°Cooking is really fun. If you are interested, I can teach you some dishes tomorrow.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Okay, come on, let¡¯s taste what I made first.¡± Jiang Laien said, and fed a small sandwich to Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips.


    Ye Kehuan was startled, and then leaned down slightly, bit the sandwich, and chewed lightly. There was egg, lettuce, and mayonnaise in it, which was actually the taste of ordinary sandwiches. However, maybe because it was made by Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan thought it was quite delicious.


    When she raised her eyes, Ye Kehuan happened to meet Jiang Laien¡¯s crescent-like eyes, and she was so shocked and caught off-guard, she choked.


    ¡°To be choking like this¡­ You slow down.¡± Jiang Laien laughed, walked over and stretched out her hand to pat her back gently, and held up a glass of milk and handed it to her. ¡°You can drink some of this.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded when she heard the words, and drank two sips of milk in a hurry, but her heart kept beating and she didn¡¯t dare to look at her again.


    ¡°Is it delicious?¡± Jiang Laien asked again.


    Ye Kehuan nodded after listening: ¡°It¡¯s delicious.¡±


    Upon hearing this, the two laughed, and then they brought the food to the dining table together.


    After eating breakfast and clearing the table, Ye Kehuan looked at the time again and found that it was already 8:30, and their flight to the next filming location was at 10:30, so Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°By the way, let¡¯s got the airport soon. If you go early, your time will be more relaxed and you¡¯ll feel more at ease. Have you packed your luggage yet?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded when she heard the words: ¡°It¡¯s already packed.


    I¡¯ll only be able to shoot for a few days. I used to stay for four or five days, so this time I don¡¯t have to pack too many things; I¡¯m almost ready.


    ¡°Then we¡¯ll go to the airport together in a while.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll change my clothes and get ready.¡± Jiang Laien nodded and wiped her hands with a clean towel.


    Then, the two of them withdrew from the kitchen and went upstairs.


    After Ye Kehuan pulled her luggage out of her room, she stopped when she passed by Jiang Laien, and then she leaned on the door frame to look in, and shouted again: ¡°Laien?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien¡¯s voice came from the closet.


    ¡°Are you okay?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°I¡¯m a bit unsure of which one to wear back to the show crew. Would you like to pick it for me?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice floated out again.


    After hearing this, Ye Kehuan thought to herself that even she could help someone choose clothes. It shouldn¡¯t have been a big problem, so she replied, ¡°Okay.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan walked into Jiang Laien¡¯s closet.


    Although it was a temporarily rented house, the closet was almost filled by Jiang Laien. There were all kinds of styles, and they were also neatly arranged.


    ¡°This and this, which one do you think is better?¡± After Jiang Laien saw Ye Kehuan come in, Jiang Laien picked up a grape-purple dress and an ochre-colored skirt and placed them in front of her.


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head and looked at them, then pointed to the ochre-colored one: ¡°I think this one is pretty good.¡±


    ¡°Then I will give it a try.¡± Jiang Laien smiled, and then pulled down one of her shoulder straps.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll go out first¡­¡± After Ye Kehuan took a glance, she was about to turn around and go out.


    However, just as she turned around, Jiang Laien said again, ¡°What are you going out to do? Just stay here, wait to see me after I change.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, coughed lightly, and nodded: ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    When she turned her head, she saw Jiang Laien had taken off most of the sling, revealing a large smooth back. Ye Kehuan was shocked when she saw it, and subconsciously turned her head to the side.


    ¡°Kehuan, can you come over and help me zip up the zipper?¡± Jiang Laien said after a while.


    After Ye Kehuan heard it, she turned her head and saw that Jiang Laien had changed into that dress, but the zipper on the back had not been closed yet.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, and then walked towards her. She stopped behind her, reaching out to touch the zipper.


    As far as her eyes could see, Jiang Laien¡¯s skin was extremely delicate. She didn¡¯t know if it was because the space in the closet was narrower than outside, but Ye Kehuan felt that her breathing had obviously become heavier.

 CH 26

    Jiang Laien¡¯s back line was very smooth, and her waist was narrow, which was very beautiful. After Ye Kehuan was out of her mind for a while, she still pinched the buckle of the zipper and slowly pulled it up for her.


    ¡°Kehuan, why are you so out of sorts now?¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien asked softly while adjusting her hair in the full-length mirror.


    ¡°What?¡± After Ye Kehuan recovered, she hurriedly raised her head and looked at her.


    ¡°Before when you wanted to take a bath together, but I was too shy, you said that I was silly, and you had everything I had, and you wouldn¡¯t be rude to me.¡± Jiang Laien said, smiling. Turning sideways to look at her: ¡°Why, now, have I suddenly changed sex, where even if I change my clothes, you want to avoid it?¡±


    ¡°No, I just¡­¡± Ye Kehuan wanted to refute, but suddenly her brain went down and she didn¡¯t know how.


    She didn¡¯t know what was going on, just felt that she had been a little weird recently.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly.


    ¡°I,¡± Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know where to start, and finally, after holding back for a long time, she opened her mouth and made up, ¡°It¡¯s just that you have a very good body. I¡¯m afraid I will lose confidence if I look for too long¡­¡±


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien watched her for a long time before laughing, and then sorted out her hair and skirt.


    The dress was very retro, with a pinched waist design, and the neckline was relatively large, but not low. It showed the collarbone just right. It was not too conservative or too exposed, and it was just right to wear.


    After that, Jiang Laien turned and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Your choice was really good. I didn¡¯t expect you to be so discerning.¡±


    Ye Kehuan put her hands in her trouser pockets, looked at her for a moment, nodded, and the corners of her lips curled up: ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m great. I shouldn¡¯t lose sight of Lu An in terms of fashion.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled when she heard those words, then raised her hand and gently pressed her chin: ¡°Why do I always feel that you are constantly competing with her, is it just my imagination?¡±


    ¡°Competition, what competition or something, where am I doing that?!¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s ears were hot, and she retorted desperately.


    ¡°It¡¯s everywhere.¡± Jiang Laien picked up a bag as she spoke. ¡°After you got drunk last night, you yelled at her in your sleep.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she was stunned: ¡°Yes, did I?¡±


    ¡°Well, I feel that you don¡¯t like her very much.¡± Jiang Laien continued.


    ¡°No, no,¡± Ye Kehuan finished speaking, and walked to the door with her hands in her pockets, ¡°Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go, we should go to the airport now.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her panicked back and only thought it was cute, so she followed her out afterwards.


    The sun was still very bright that day, and at first glance, it was very beautiful. However, Ye Kehuan realized that she didn¡¯t dare to face Jiang Laien anymore. As long as she saw Jiang Laien, she would remember those ¡°dreams¡± uncontrollably.


    In the blink of an eye, the two flew to the spot where the show crew started filming.


    As soon as they returned to the program group, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien received a warm welcome from everyone in the program group.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had just taken one step into the house with their suitcases when Liu Yun immediately walked over, stretched out her arms, and hugged Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien one by one. ¡°Oh, my two girls, you guys are finally back. I thought I was going to die!¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed happily, and freed her hands to pat her on the back: ¡°Sister Yun misses us that much?¡±


    At this time, Wen Xian next to her said: ¡°No, no matter what she did before, she kept hanging her head. ¡®It would be fine if you were there¡¯, and ¡®it would be fine if you were there¡¯. When the show was broadcast, she also watched while eating. She¡¯s so proud of you.¡±


    After hearing this, Ye Kehuan covered her mouth and smiled again: ¡°Are you proud of me?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Bai Wei nodded wildly. ¡°I¡¯m really like an old mother, but I can¡¯t worry about it.¡±


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help laughing when she heard this. Liu Yun had always been a very prestigious person in the host industry, and had always been a person who loves hate and **** talk. To be honest, Ye Kehuan was able to be accepted by so many people at once partly because of Liu Yun¡¯s contribution. After all, everyone felt that Liu Yun couldn¡¯t make mistakes with her sight. Liu Yun liked Ye Kehuan so much, so Ye Kehuan might not be so bad.


    For a while, everyone was in harmony and the atmosphere was excellent.


    Of course, Zhou Junyi was more embarrassed. Because after the show was broadcast, it did not bring him any positive press, but brought some negative effects, which made him very uncomfortable, but he had to pretend that nothing happened.


    Then, the recording of the show continued in full swing.


    Originally, after Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien came back, there were only two episodes left to be recorded, so the time passed quite quickly, and while they were not paying attention, it was the last episode of the show¡¯s recording.


    The last episode was recorded in a place with quite ethnic characteristics. This time, the program group did not provide ingredients, but let them find them locally.


    In the morning before the sky was bright, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien went to pick some wild berries nearby to make a special improved version of dessert, then fished some fish, and then went to dig some wild vegetables.


    At the end of the day, they had a full harvest, and felt it was very interesting.


    Then, although Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien did not win the previous two challenges, they won again for the last time.


    It could be said that on the show, the two of them were indeed big winners.


    At night.


    After attending a bonfire party, the group sang and danced, then they sat down to eat barbecue and rest while chatting about life, feelings, and family.


    That day, the stars were all over the sky, and it looked extra beautiful. A cool breeze lingered, and everyone¡¯s mood had become extraordinarily relaxed. However, at the same time, there was some reluctance.


    But since it was a show, just like a TV series or movie, it had to eventually end. Therefore, no matter how long they saw each other off, they would part in the end.


    Ye Kehuan still felt very lucky to have been able to join the program group.


    After recording the show and Ye Kehuan returned to Morikawa City, the second episode of the show had also been broadcast.


    Compared with the first episode, she was more popular in the second one. She had never been on the hot searches so frequently before, and now she had a lot of fans. Everyone said that Ye Kehuan was a good laugh, and she even had a lot of memes about her.


    In addition, Ye Kehuan also discovered that #YeKehuanAndJiangLaienCPFeelings had slowly emerged on the hot search list.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help being stunned.


    The two of them, CP?


    After thinking about it, Ye Kehuan still looked into the topic.


    Then she saw those Weibo posts by fans:


    [Did only I notice that those two are not simple?! In the first episode, Sister Ye hugged Laien in the secret room. In the second episode, Sister Ye ate the spicy chili by herself in order to let Laien eat the meat. The result was a spicy pig¡¯s head. Then Laien bought her dumplings!]


    [Yeah, yeah, it¡¯s really sweet. And when they ran at night, Sister Ye asked Goddess Jiang if she was afraid of the dark. Goddess Jiang said, ¡°I¡¯m not afraid, because you are by my side.¡± Ah, ah, what is this if not love? This hits my CP!]


    [It¡¯s so beautiful, hit me, hit me with more! Today is another day to shed tears for other people¡¯s love. Hum hum¡­]


    ¡­


    After Ye Kehuan looked at those Weibos for a while, the assistant next to her suddenly said, ¡°Sister Kehuan, why are you smiling so happily?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, subconsciously slamming the phone screen down, and touched the corners of her lips: ¡°Am I?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± The assistant nodded.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan nodded. ¡°It¡¯s nothing, I just saw something funny.¡±


    ¡°Um¡­¡± The assistant stopped talking.


    So Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief and continued to flip through Weibo. Really, did she and Jiang Laien look good? Love or something¡­ Inexplicably, Ye Kehuan remembered the kiss again. In that ¡°dream¡±, my desire for Jiang Laien was so urgent¡­ really¡­ damn.


    While Ye Kehuan continued to browse, her agent suddenly called her and told her that Chen Fei decided to let her play Su He and asked her to sign the contract.


    After Ye Kehuan saw that, she was dumbfounded for a while. In fact, she really didn¡¯t have too high of expectations for winning the role, but she turned out to be¡­ what kind of luck fell on her?!


    She had to perform well in this movie! She must not be looked down upon! She couldn¡¯t disappoint those people who just became fans!


    Then, Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that after meeting Jiang Laien, her luck seemed to have improved greatly, and she was able to do everything well. Was it an illusion?


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan went to see Chen Fei with her agent immediately and signed for the role.


    When she walked out of the building, Ye Kehuan flipped through the contract and the full version of the script in her hand, her face still full of disbelief, and even her steps felt like she was floating on clouds.


    Then Ye Kehuan laughed happily, and called Jiang Laien. She found that whenever she had something, the first person she thought to share it with was Jiang Laien.


    After the phone rang, Jiang Laien picked it up.


    Then, Ye Kehuan immediately said: ¡°Laien, I got the role of Su He!¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Yeah! You didn¡¯t expect it, right? I didn¡¯t expect it either!¡± Ye Kehuan felt that she was now a daughter to the richest parents in the world.


    ¡°That¡¯s great, let¡¯s celebrate tonight?¡± Jiang Laien suggested.


    ¡°Okay, how should we celebrate?¡± Ye Kehuan asked with a smile. It was indeed a gratifying thing.


    ¡°Let¡¯s have a good meal tonight?¡± Jiang Laien said. ¡°I am taking a bath, so I don¡¯t want to go out today, and I prefer to eat what you make compared to restaurants outside.¡±


    ¡°Yes, which restaurant do you want to go to?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°How about at home? Didn¡¯t you say that you would teach me to cook?¡±


    Ye Kehuan thought for a while and replied: ¡°Sure, what do you want to eat or learn? I¡¯m going to buy groceries!¡±


    ¡°Um¡­ Steamed grouper, braised pork ribs, fishy eggplant, and any soup dish.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll go shopping for groceries first.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll wait for you.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice sounded a little soft.


    Ye Kehuan, while holding her phone, felt a little strange after hearing her voice.


    Then, Ye Kehuan went quickly to buy the ingredients, and then returned home.


    After the door was opened, Ye Kehuan finished changing her shoes and shouted: ¡°I¡¯m back!¡±


    So, in the next second, Jiang Laien, wearing a white shirt, walked downstairs lazily.


    It seemed that she had just finished her shower.


    The shirt was loose, neither long nor short, and it happened to cover Jiang Laien¡¯s thighs. In addition, it was very transparent, allowing people to glimpse her waistline and the beautiful shape of her chest. She really had a fairy-like figure.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her for a while, then hurriedly pulled back her gaze, lowered her eyelashes, and coughed, ¡°Could you be thorough?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly.


    ¡°I mean, your clothes.¡± Ye Kehuan weighed the things in her hands and felt her heartbeat speed up again inexplicably.


    ¡°So what?¡± Jiang Laien took a step towards her, and her lips curled up slightly.


    Ye Kehuan raised her eyes and stared at her, gulping again, and her voice became lower: ¡°What is it called? Do you know that if you dress like this it will easily lead to a crime?¡±


    ¡°Yes, but there is no one else here.¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and gently hooked Ye Kehuan¡¯s chin. ¡°Who can I lead to commit any crime? Will you commit a crime against me?¡±


    The author has something to say: Ye: What did you say?!

 CH 27

    ¡°I¡¯m a woman, thank you. If I was a man,¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head to the side and settled for a moment. ¡°Maybe you would already¡­¡±


    At this point, Ye Kehuan suddenly stopped her train of thought in time.


    ¡°If you were a man,¡± Jiang Laien slowly swept her eyes around Ye Kehuan, then put down her hand again, ¡°how am I now?¡±


    The buttons on Jiang Laien¡¯s shirt were not buttoned properly, and there was another strand of hair lying on her collarbone, looking very alluring.


    After staring for a while, Ye Kehuan hurriedly retracted her gaze, shook her head, and grabbed the things in her hands: ¡°No, nothing, I will put these things in the kitchen first.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    After that, Ye Kehuan walked into the kitchen quickly without saying anything. After putting the key on the counter, she lifted her head and let out a sigh.


    Jiang Laien watched her back, smiling lightly, then walked in, casually folding her arms, leaning on the side and watching Ye Kehuan put things on the table.


    She found that she was still the same as before; she loved to watch Ye Kehuan cook. Perhaps, she liked the way Ye Kehuan was cooking for her, or maybe she felt that Ye Kehuan and herself were like a family.


    In short, it made her feel that her relationship with Ye Kehuan was very close.


    After that, Jiang Laien walked over ,stood next to her, tilted her head, and watched her pour the grouper into a small bowl. ¡°Seriously, I never expected that after so many years, in such a busy life, you and I would still be cooking like before, and you¡¯re better than ever.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I am such a person.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    Jiang Laien laughed, then tilted her head again and saw Ye Kehuan¡¯s key on the counter. The small pendant on the keychain looked very old.


    ¡°The pendant on this keychain has been around for so many years. How am I only now finding out that you are still using it?¡± Jiang Laien picked up Ye Kehuan¡¯s key as she spoke.


    ¡°Hmm¡­ This may be my virtue. If I really like a wallet, or dress, or even a pen, I will use it until it breaks and can¡¯t be used anymore, and if I don¡¯t like it or it¡¯s inappropriate, no matter how expensive it is, I always throw it to the bottom of a box to forget it. My mother always said that I lost her face. ¡®She was born not bad, but she lives like a street urchin¡¯. Every time she took me to a big occasion, she had to take care of me from head to toe personally to make sure nothing was wrong.¡± Ye Kehuan said, turning on the faucet to let water submerge the fish, and began to scrub.


    Jiang Laien listened, put the key aside, and picked up the eggplant and the peeler, and started to peel with a smile: ¡°Yeah, you are really sentimental. I still remember that at that time you liked a game called Gomoku, and then one day I looked for Gomoku. But you went back and forth several times on the way to school every day.¡±


    The most amazing thing was that Ye Kehuan really found it in the end. Ye Kehuan laughed like a fool at the time.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan brushed the fish again, and then turned her head to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°It has nothing to do with the old days, but it has something to do with you.¡±


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien unknowingly stopped the peeling action of her hands, and turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°That was the first gift you gave me, and it was of great significance.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Do you even remember the first gift I gave you?¡± To be honest, Jiang Laien herself couldn¡¯t remember what the first gift she gave Ye Kehuan was.


    ¡°Well, the first gift you gave me was Gomoku, the second gift was a music box, the third gift was a crystal bracelet, the fourth gift was a rubber superman, the fifth gift was a brooch, and the sixth gift was a comic¡­¡± After Ye Kehuan put the marinating fish aside, she began to clean the pork ribs.


    After listening, Jiang Laien looked at her motionlessly. For a while, she felt as if she had been hit in her heart, and her nose was faintly sore.


    After a while, Jiang Laien controlled her emotions, and her lips opened slightly: ¡°You remember so clearly.¡±


    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because I care about it.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at the ribs, and then stretched out her hand to stir them several times. ¡°I will always put a lot of energy into the people or things I care about. That way, you will definitely be impressed.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard this, thinking of the past, she couldn¡¯t help closing her eyes: ¡°Sorry, I was too na?ve at the beginning. However, I really didn¡¯t expect that you would still be willing to come back to me.¡±


    ¡°Being childish or something, who hasn¡¯t been young before?¡± Ye Kehuan poured some water into the pot, put it on the stove, and lit the burner. ¡°If I want to reconcile or not, I also look at the person, and their attitude. If you treated me like that, I wouldn¡¯t necessarily be willing to look at you again. For example, if you were replaced by Du Mingan, it would be strange if I came back.¡±


    Hearing the three words ¡®Du Mingan¡¯, Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows lightly, cut the eggplant into three pieces, and softly said: ¡°When did you break up?¡±


    Finally, the two talked about feelings for the first time.


    ¡°We split up shortly after your transfer.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°So fast?¡± Jiang Laien was a little surprised, as she didn¡¯t expect that.


    ¡°Well, because you left, I was in a bad mood all the time, I looked a little languid, and then one day he said something. He felt that his presence was not as strong as yours for me, and he wanted me to be happy but didn¡¯t know where to start. Then he suddenly wanted to hug and kiss me, so I kicked him and ran away, and then we broke up the next day,¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head as she said, ¡°When we started dating, I said that I would not do anything before graduation. It¡¯s disgusting.¡±


    ¡°Then, after that, did you date again?¡± Jiang Laien cut the eggplant into small pieces slowly.


    Ye Kehuan walked to her right, peeled the two green onions and knotted them, and shook her head: ¡°No. Partly because I was disgusted by Du Mingan and suddenly lost interest in boys, partly because I felt that being single was pretty good. The people around me who were in love were always arguing and even fighting all the time. Just my time is quiet, why should I make myself unhappy?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien bit her lower lip lightly, in a daze. Lost interest in boys, really?


    Then, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, and asked about her emotional world for the first time: ¡°Then¡­ what about you? Have you ever been in a relationship?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and shook her head: ¡°No.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan put the sliced green onion, minced ginger, etc. into the pot, she pressed her fingers on the counter, looked at her sideways, and cleared her throat: ¡°Not once?¡±


    ¡°Well, no.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Unbelievable¡­¡± Ye Kehuan asked again after listening, ¡°Have you ever met someone who has moved your heart?¡±


    After hearing that question, Jiang Laien looked up at her, and shook her head after a while: ¡°I have met someone who was heart-warming, and I met them a long time ago.¡±


    Hearing this, Ye Kehuan slowed down unconsciously: ¡°What kind of person was he?¡±


    ¡°She¡­¡± Jiang Laien began to wash the vegetables, and the corners of her lips were stained with a soft smile, ¡°Is silly, upright, cute, and interesting. Without her, I wouldn¡¯t be who I am now.¡± 1


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands became more stiff after listening. That description really sounded like¡­


    Was this the legendary New Year¡¯s Perfect Lover? Who was that? Was it someone in the entertainment industry? He got such a high evaluation. For a while, Ye Kehuan felt a little uncomfortable.


    ¡°Kehuan?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien called her.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan recovered.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    Ye Kehuan coughed and turned the grouper in the pot: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, just thinking about why both you and my mother can¡¯t tell the difference between grouper and tiger grouper¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien lowered her head and continued to peel the eggplant: ¡°Speaking of which, has she been okay in recent years?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Very good. She can eat, drink, sleep, run, and jump. She travels around the world all day long, and she can buy whatever she wants.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°That¡¯s good, good health is the most important thing, otherwise, everything else is useless.¡±


    ¡°Yeah. Speaking of it, she still thinks about you, and always asks why I suddenly stopped playing with you.¡± Ye Kehuan blanched the ribs in the water, then shook the strainer again. ¡°Like this, after the show was broadcast, she was so happy that she kept sending me messages asking when I would take you home for dinner.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she closed her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief: ¡°I¡¯ll go when I have time.¡±


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, looking at the blanched ribs, ¡°Okay, it¡¯s almost done, we can start the real cooking. Do you want to learn braised ribs?¡±


    ¡°Of course I want to learn.¡± Jiang Laien walked closer to Ye Kehuan as she spoke, and slightly pulled her two sleeves out, covering half of each of her hands, very cautious.


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily: ¡°Afraid of being splashed by oil?¡±


    Jiang Laien turned her head: ¡°A little bit.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry,¡± Ye Kehuan said, pouring the oil into the pot, then put some sugar down, and then fried out the color, and said to Jiang Laien, ¡°Take the ribs and pour them in.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien immediately picked up the ribs and poured them into the pot! This downfall caused the pan to crackle and pop in an instant, which was scarier than the omelette. In an instant, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but take a step backwards, then her face discolored, as if she was about to slip.


    ¡°Be careful!¡± Upon seeing this, Ye Kehuan hurriedly stretched out her hand and pressed it behind her. As a result, her arm passed through her armpits inadvertently, and accidentally pressed on a certain inch of very soft skin. Even though there was a layer of clothing between them, Ye Kehuan¡¯s figure froze. She could feel the seemingly nonexistent touch of that dove¡¯s beak, and her whole body couldn¡¯t help but tremble.


    For a time, the atmosphere between the two of them became a little ambiguous. It was like a rainy night in the scorching summer.


    She was a mess, and her mind was messed up. Looking at Jiang Laien¡¯s lips, Ye Kehuan began to realize that something was really wrong with her¡­


    The author has something to say: Hello everyone, do you know about my new short story, ¡°Summer Fireworks¡±?


    Copywriting:


    When Yan Shuxin¡¯s missing ex-girlfriend appeared in front of her, she only said one thing:


    ¡°I will never get together with you even if I die.¡±


    Song Zhilin just heard it and said with a smile: ¡°Me too.¡±


    Later, Song Zhilin pressed her under her body again and again, leaving scarlet marks on her neck, like never-ending flames.


    Just like that summer ten years ago, only this time, she won¡¯t leave again.


    TL/N


    1 - Remember, no pronouns. Ye Kehuan thinks Jiang Laien is talking about a man.

 CH 28

    Because Ye Kehuan accidentally touched a sensitive area, Jiang Laien was also stunned. The subtle feeling was really hard to describe.


    After Ye Kehuan regained her senses, she immediately loosened her grip on Jiang Laien, and stood in front of the pot again with hot earlobes. Holding the handle of the pot, she started to fry the ribs inside, and said, ¡°Fry them well and give each some sauce. When the ribs are all nicely colored, then¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien stood by, trying to take Ye Kehuan¡¯s words seriously, but she couldn¡¯t concentrate. Jiang Laien kept feeling as if Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands were still covering her body, and the electric current-like touch would not dissipate for a long time.


    After a while, several dishes finally came out one after another, and the two took them to the dining table and sat down.


    Compared with other places, the lighting in the dining room looked a bit dim, but in that way, the food on the table appeared fuller and richer. Jiang Laien had been stunned by those foods even before she began to move her chopsticks.


    ¡°The dishes you cooked really look delicious.¡± Jiang Laien put her hands slightly together and placed them on her cheek.


    Ye Kehuan nodded.


    But the fact was that, to Ye Kehuan, the deliciousness of the food on the table did not seem to be as good as one ten-thousandth of Jiang Laien sitting on her side. Yes, Jiang Laien seemed to be more delicious than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas. Ye Kehuan found some weird thoughts in her heart begin to stir.


    Then, Jiang Laien poured two cups of drinks, one for Ye Kehuan, then lifted her cup into the air, smiling: ¡°Okay, come on, we will celebrate you getting the role of Su He!¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled slightly, and then she picked up her glass of drink, touched it gently, and drank the drink into her belly.


    At the same time, in a certain villa.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s rival, Cheng Yan, sat in front of a makeup mirror. After removing her earrings, she stared at herself in the mirror, and her eyes became blood red unknowingly.


    ¡°So, you mean, Director Chen asked Ye Kehuan to act as the heroine, and then he asked me to act as the vicious female partner Mo Jiaojiao?¡± Cheng Yan suddenly turned her head and looked at her agent, Liu Neng, who was standing next to her.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Liu Neng nodded.


    ¡°Ha.¡± Cheng Yan, after listening, suddenly slapped the dressing table. ¡°What a joke for the ages?! Ye Kehuan playing the heroine, but I am playing the vicious female partner in it? Why?! Ye Kehuan, is there something going on between her and Chen Fei?¡±


    ¡°Yanyan, don¡¯t be so impatient, we have to think of the good in everything, right?¡± Liu Neng put his hands on her shoulders, trying to stabilize her emotions.


    ¡°How do you think I can benefit? In a short period of time, the person surnamed Ye first took away my opportunity in the variety show, then took away my heroine role. What about you, what did you do? You didn¡¯t get anything for me! Good Liu Neng, what can you do; I think you should just change your name to Wu Neng!¡± Cheng Yan began to shake her head on the spot. 1


    Liu Neng frowned when he was being scolded, but he dared not speak, because Cheng Yan was born in a rich family and had a lot of businesses behind her, and he couldn¡¯t afford to offend her at all.


    ¡°Yanyan, at least we got the chance to participate in a film by Director Chen, didn¡¯t we? How many people don¡¯t have that chance in their lifetime?¡± Liu Neng smiled.


    Cheng Yan just tugged at the corners of her mouth, showing a nonchalant smile.


    After Liu Neng cleared his throat, he continued: ¡°What¡¯s more, Ye Kehuan¡¯s acting skills are so bad. When you compare, you will know which one is higher and lower. The audience are not fools. If they see you are so good but she is so bad¡­ She is basically useless in terms of word-of-mouth, and there is a high probability that it will arouse public ridicule. At that time, we will buy a marketing account and praise you for stepping on her, and the public¡¯s attention will return to you. Isn¡¯t it good?¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard this, her eyebrows moved slightly, her expression eased a little, and her lips curled: ¡°Okay, I know, you will be condemned by the heavens if you are not worthy. The more she is proud of her horseshit luck today, the more likely she will be to fall to pieces.¡±


    After seeing Cheng Yan, the super little princess, return to happiness, Liu Neng raised his hand and quietly wiped off a bead of sweat from his forehead.


    After that, Cheng Yan looked at Liu Neng again: ¡°Well, you go back, I want to rest.¡±


    ¡°Well, then, I¡¯ll go first.¡± Liu Neng nodded and walked to the door.


    In fact, after the news about Ye Kehuan becoming the heroine of the movie ¡°Black Bites¡± came out, it did cause quite a sensation and a lot of splashes on the Internet.¡±


    Some people had questions about Ye Kehuan¡¯s participation in such a large-scale film:


    [It is undeniable that Ye Kehuan performed very well on variety shows and was very pleasing, but it is also a fact that her poor acting skills are obvious, isn¡¯t it? Can this be ignored? ? ?]


    [I heard that Cheng Yan also auditioned for that role, but she was removed. Could it be that Ye Kehuan has been popular recently, so he is going to use her? Director Chen, please think twice!]


    [Cheng Yan¡¯s acting skills are like heaven and earth compared to Ye Kehuan. I¡¯m unconvinced.]


    ¡­


    However, some netizens expressed their support:


    [Before Ye Kehuan participated on the variety show, didn¡¯t you all think she would only leave soot behind and be a demon? But the result? If she got this role, it means that the director has taken a fancy to her, doesn¡¯t it?]


    [Yes, she used to have poor acting skills, but it doesn¡¯t mean that she hasn¡¯t made progress now. She can pass the screening of the director¡¯s all-seeing eyes. Doesn¡¯t it mean that she is quite capable?]


    In addition, there were some passers-by who were a bit disgusted with Cheng Yan¡¯s fans, and couldn¡¯t help but post: ¡°If your master can¡¯t compete with others, you have to blame others for not giving opportunities to your master? What kind of strange logic is that? ^^¡±


    Then someone commented: ¡°+1. I am really annoyed just watching. If Cheng Yan is really so good, why would her chance be stolen? Let alone the unspoken rules, who doesn¡¯t know how rich her family is. It should be her unspoken rules that drowns others.¡±


    ¡­


    The comments were good and bad, some were optimistic and some were not, some were mocking Ye Kehuan, waiting for Ye Kehuan to get embarrassed, and some supporting Ye Kehuan and cheering for her. That would be true until the end of the movie¡¯s opening night.


    However, Ye Kehuan was now more Buddhist, and she was automatically filtering out the harsher sounds.


    Since I am an artist, I should do my job well, complete all the announcements carefully, take performance classes seriously, and polish my acting skills.


    What was more, everything was developing in a good direction. In a short period of time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s Weibo followers could even be compared to Zhou Junyi.


    In the past, her Weibo posts usually only had about 2,000 comments, but now they had more than 10,000. The number of fans in the fan club had increased visibly, and had a more comprehensive fan system, and even had their own name--Coke. 2


    In the past, even if she was silent for half a month, no one would remember, but now, if she did not post on Weibo for a few days, someone would jokingly ask her where she died.


    Life was really peculiar. It went back and forth, and people¡¯s views on others were always changing. However, in the end, as long as it was developing in a good direction, it was fine.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know how to repay them. She just watched many film and television works every day, asked people for advice on acting skills, and read many books, trying to improve herself so as to live up to her expectations.


    In addition, whenever she saw fans posting pictures of her, no matter how ugly, she would carefully preserve the photos; she would also carefully read every handwritten letter sent by her fans, and after reading them, then carefully put it into a s small box she bought specially for storing letters.


    A few months passed, and Ye Kehuan felt that her condition was getting better and better.


    The official start time for the movie ¡°Black Bites¡± was in the middle of December, in winter, and it was shot in Chongyuan City.


    The temperature in Chongyuan City was lower than that in Senchuan City, and the cold wind blew on the skin, which was sharp as a knife and felt like it would erode bones. The streets there seemed to be completely blocked by an invisible fog every day, and the noon sun couldn¡¯t see through it, but that kind of atmosphere was quite compatible with ¡°Black Bites¡±.


    After all, it was a suspenseful and supernatural film, which originally needed a misty and gloomy feeling.


    There were two lodgings provided by the crew, namely Warwick Hotel and Huazi B&B. Warwick sounded grandiose, but in fact, the conditions of Huazhi were better for more ordinary chain hotels.


    Because Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan were both female protagonists, Chen Fei arranged them in the Huazhi B&B, each with one room, both on the third floor, and counter as neighbors.


    The decoration of the homestay looked pretty good. The balcony was large. The sliding doors were hung with elegant and clear curtains. There was a bunch of dried flowers in the vase on the low table in the room. There were several oil paintings on the TV wall. The sofa was very soft and the whole feeling was very soft, cute and fresh. The homestay was even equipped with a small kitchen with a refrigerator, oven, microwave, etc., but, probably because of potential safety hazards, only electricity was allowed.


    This was the most humane treatment from the crew that Ye Kehuan had been with. The accommodations provided by the crew she was staying with before were really in-humane and messy. She would wake up in the middle of the night to beat cockroaches and mice. If it weren¡¯t for that reason, she would not have chosen to rent a house near the crew later.


    It didn¡¯t matter whether she was dirty or messy when filming, but she still wanted to have a more comfortable environment when she was resting, which would also help replenish her energy and let her devote more energy to the next day¡¯s work.


    After putting down their luggage at the hotel, the two of them went to the Juxing Restaurant and everyone in the crew ate together.  After all, it was a ritual they still had to go through.


    Before they knew it, the two walked out of the hotel. Ye Kehuan let out a white breath, a little nervous. You know, it was not a variety show.


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien pushed in and walked to the table where the important actors were sitting.


    She saw that the people sitting there were all talented actors. The national rankings were extremely high. They belonged to the kind who would be recognized by anyone if they were asked.


    For example, Zhang Haotian, who often played a badass in high-rated movies, and Lu Yan, who often played mother-in-laws in high-rated movies, were all known as quality guarantees. Zhang Haotian was even an actor when he was young.


    In addition, at that table, there was Cheng Yan sitting, talking and laughing with others, her eyebrows and eyes were full of demeanor.


    That day¡¯s Cheng Yan was well-dressed, carrying the latest Hermes limited edition bag, wearing Prada clothes, wearing beautiful lipstick and exquisite eye makeup. It didn¡¯t look like she was there for dinner. It was more like going to Didi.


    When Ye Kehuan saw her, she smiled at her in a friendly manner.


    When Cheng Yan looked at her, she chuckled and pretended not to see her.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t care either, just sat down with Jiang Laien.


    After everyone saw Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan coming, they all took the initiative to talk to Jiang Laien, and automatically filtered her out.


    Acting was different from filming variety shows. As an actor, the looks of her peers were more focused as to whether she had the strength. They felt that she was not capable, because the stereotypes were particularly strong.


    For example, when it came to Ye Kehuan, who didn¡¯t know that Ye Kehuan was the queen of bad movies, plus, they weren¡¯t very popular. It was just that the reality show went viral recently. Therefore, everyone would rather chat with Cheng Yan, who played the vicious female partner, than her.


    After all, Cheng Yan¡¯s acting skills were still passable among the new generation of little flowers, and Ye Kehuan left no impression of them.


    Everyone even wondered if Director Chen was drunk when he was selecting the cast, after all, Director Chen was a drunkard.


    Cheng Yan smiled brighter when she saw Ye Kehuan¡¯s cold reception and no one wanted to take care of her. Her agent was right, in the end, everyone had to speak with strength.


    ¡°Xiao En, is this the third time we have cooperated?¡± At this moment, Zhang Haotian looked at Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s the third time. It must be fate.¡± Jiang Laien responded with a smile.


    ¡°It is really comfortable to film with you. Basically, there is no NG. It is especially easy. Children with high savvy are different.¡± Zhang Haotian had always admired Jiang Laien.


    ¡°It¡¯s great, that¡¯s the blessing of your predecessor¡¯s advice in this business.¡± Jiang Laien smiled very movingly.


    ¡°That also requires you to be talented. Hey, there are really not many children in the entertainment circle who are down-to-earth when filming like you. And talents like you are even rarer, and many people will be a bit fake. Looking for a stand-in, playing big names, not taking serious shots, making hype, or something.¡± Lu Yan said that she glanced at Ye Kehuan from the corner of her eye.


    She had a deep prejudice against Ye Kehuan, because her acting career was really full of ups and downs, so she especially looked down on people who would turn tricks, and in her heart, Ye Kehuan was such a person.


    That referred to what the grapevine said, and everyone there could understand who it was about.


    Jiang Laien looked at her for a moment, and suddenly smiled: ¡°Sometimes, I can¡¯t say anything. There are some people working behind the scenes that outsiders can¡¯t see.¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± At this time, the actor Chen Jiaxin looked at Cheng Yan.¡± Moreover, the entertainment industry is not so unbearable nowadays. Yanyan is pretty good, and Bai Wei, who is full of potential, will definitely shine in the future.¡±


    After listening, Lu Yan nodded immediately: ¡°Ah, yes, yes, Yanyan is very good, her eyes are very playful, very vivid!¡±


    In short, everyone deliberately avoided Ye Kehuan.


    At this time, Cheng Yan laughed: ¡°Everyone saying this, I am really flattered!¡±


    After Jiang Laien swept her eyes around everyone at the table, she slowly took her hand off the table and placed it on Ye Kehuan¡¯s lap under the table.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a moment, then looked at her. Then Jiang Laien patted her leg gently. Ye Kehuan understood that Jiang Laien was comforting herself silently, telling herself not to think too much, so she couldn¡¯t help but smile.


    No matter how cold it was in winter, Jiang Laien¡¯s actions were warm to her heart, enough to dispel all the coldness.


    In the next second, Jiang Laien opened her mouth and changed the subject: ¡°When will Director Chen arrive?¡±


    Zhang Haotian picked up his phone: ¡°I just sent him a WeChat message, and she said he has already arrived downstairs.¡±


    ¡°Good.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    After the topic was changed off, everyone began to talk about other things.


    After Chen Fei arrived, the waiter began to serve dishes one after another. The dishes were very rich, complete with chicken, duck, fish, as well as vegetables and fruits. The taste was not bad, but Jiang Laien felt that there was still something missing compared to Ye Kehuan¡¯s.


    The meal had probably lasted nearly two hours, everyone was chattering and drinking, and unknowingly, it seemed that everyone had become completely acquainted, except for Ye Kehuan.


    When the meal was over, when Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien packed up and left the hotel, as soon as they opened the door, Jiang Laien was shaken by the cold outside.


    When Ye Kehuan saw that, she stretched out her hand and twisted Jiang Laien¡¯s coat: ¡°You always wear too little, no wonder you are intolerant of freezing.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien looked up at her and blinked innocently: ¡°I just wanted to come out for a while. I only need to walk a few steps on the road. The restaurant has air conditioning, so I didn¡¯t wear too much.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan saw her winking innocently, she couldn¡¯t help but say she was cruel, but after pulling the zipper to the top, she put the hat on her head, and then walked towards the hotel with her.


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan suddenly said: ¡°Just at the dinner, thank you.¡±


    Jiang Laien turned her head to look at her and smiled: ¡°Thank you, I didn¡¯t do anything.¡±


    Ye Kehuan lowered her head to look at her and smiled: ¡°How can I say it, I can feel¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her for a long time, laughed, and rubbed her hands again: ¡°What do you feel?¡±


    ¡°Feel¡­¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her sideways. ¡°You care about me.¡±


    Jiang Laien continued to rub her hands, the corners of her lips still smiling: ¡°Fool.¡±


    Ye Kehuan discovered that Jiang Laien liked to laugh and scold her for being a fool. At the same time, she also found that she liked being scolded by her as a fool.


    ¡°Ye Kehuan.¡± At this moment, a strong male voice suddenly rushed out behind her.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien turned around, they discovered that the person who came was Chen Fei, who was wearing a cap that would last forever.


    ¡°Director Chen?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at him, wondering what was wrong, with him stopping her.


    ¡°The shooting will start tomorrow.¡± Chen Fei walked to her side, and when he spoke, some white air burst from his mouth.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Do you have a bottom line?¡± Chen Fei asked.


    Ye Kehuan slowly squeezed her hands and nodded: ¡°Of course.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good,¡± Chen Fei touched his nose. ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter what others say, and when you question yourself, please remember that you were chosen by this old monster. This is your biggest hole card.¡±


    After Chen Fei finished speaking, he chatted with Jiang Laien again, and then turned and left.


    Ye Kehuan looked at his back and laughed. Director Chen had personality, and she liked it!


    After returning to her residence, Ye Kehuan took out the script after washing up, carefully pondering the part that the director said would be filmed the next day.


    The next day, Ye Kehuan would mainly shoot three parts. One was the one she played during the audition, but the next day they would film it in a longer and more detailed manner. It would also cover Su He and people calling to make an appointment at the bar to complain.


    The second part was where she was ridiculed by Mo Jiaojiao, played by Cheng Yan, in the background when she was rushing for the announcement. After turning around and pointing to her face to counterattack, she closed the door and ran away.


    The last part to be filmed was the scene where she and Jiang Laien met on a snowy night. In that scene, she first jumped out of the nanny car, and then when she was about to go back to her apartment, she discovered a series of things that happened after she found a long-haired woman in white clothes in front of her.


    When it was over, Ye Kehuan found that she was okay in other places, but she couldn¡¯t do that part.


    Because she was not afraid of ghosts. She was not afraid of ghosts at all. She was full of socialist scientific concepts. How could she truly perform the feeling of being especially afraid of ghosts?


    How should she deal with that kind of fear? She tried several times in the mirror, but found that her performances were either very fake and exaggerated, or they were too polite and perfunctory.


    ¡°How can I act better here¡­¡± Ye Kehuan pulled her hair, tangled it for a long time, finally running out with the script, walked to the door of Jiang Laien, reached out and knocked on the door, ¡°Laien, are you asleep? Can I come in?¡±


    ¡°No, come in.¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien¡¯s soft voice came out from inside.


    With permission, Ye Kehuan opened the door and walked in without saying a word. As soon as the door was opened, she ran into Jiang Laien sitting on the sofa, applying some skin care products to her legs.


    Her legs were already beautiful, and her skin was soft and smooth. Under that light, she naturally looked more moist and white. At first glance, she looked like a cat. She was light and exquisite. No matter where she was, she looked great.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help staying in the doorway.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien, who was applying body lotion to her legs, put the small bottle on the table next to her, stood up, and looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze condensed on her lap for a moment, retracted, closed the door, squeezed the script in her hand, and raised it into the air: ¡°I found a very magical thing.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien approached her, looked at her, and then at the script, her eyebrows were like willow leaves, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s the first time that Su He saw Qi Luo. Wasn¡¯t she scared to death? I found that my acting was too fake. Maybe it was because I kept thinking about ghosts and weird things when I acted. Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan said, ¡°I just don¡¯t know what to do.¡±


    ¡°When filming, many times you have to let yourself take the role to feel. Imagine what you would do when facing a certain situation. But when you can¡¯t substitute in, you can substitute in another way, such as¡­ You don¡¯t have to imagine what would happen to you if you met a ghost, just think about, say, meeting a mentally ill patient, and he will stab you, and you don¡¯t have a weapon, what might happen to you.¡±


    After hearing this, Ye Kehuan suddenly gained enlightenment, and realized: ¡°That¡¯s right, I understand why you are so good!¡±


    ¡°Well, do you want to practice this scene with me?¡± Jiang Laien flicked the script to the chosen page.


    ¡°Good!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded without saying a word.


    Jiang Laien opened the script and looked at it.


    Then Ye Kehuan intuitively looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s profile. Gentle willow eyebrows, watery almond eyes, full and charming lips. Although she had a plain face, it was also poetic and picturesque. She was probably a descended fairy.


    Just as Ye Kehuan was staring at her, Jiang Laien looked at her suddenly, smiled and asked, ¡°What¡¯s the matter, is there something dirty on my face?¡±


    Ye Kehuan opened her lips slightly, raised her hand to touch the tip of her nose, and shook her head: ¡°No.¡±


    ¡°Then what do you think after watching for so long?¡± Jiang Laien let go of the script.


    Ye Kehuan looked into her eyes, only feeling that there were thousands of spring water droplets in those eyes, which made people feel like drowning in them.


    ¡°You are too beautiful.¡± Ye Kehuan finally spoke out.


    After listening, Jiang Laien smiled lightly, stretched her eyebrows, and moved closer to her: ¡°Really? To what extent?¡±


    Ye Kehuan stared at her: ¡°It will make people fascinated to a large degree.¡±


    The author has something to say: I fell asleep while writing and writing last night¡­


    TL/N


    1 - This is a common retort/dissing scheme in Chinese. Liu means Six, and Wu means Five. Cheng Yan is putting him down. Another example would be saying something like, "If you are Liu Neng, then I am Ye (Seven) Neng!"


    2 - So the word here is  ¿ÉÀÖ (KeLe). They are using the first character of Kehuan and Le meaning joy. It is also the word for Coke or any cola.

 CH 29

    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s words made Jiang Laien unable to help but laugh.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said, ¡°Let¡¯s¡­ let¡¯s play.¡±


    ¡°Good.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    In fact, they had already memorized the lines and all. With the help of Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan also got the hang of it. When it came to the scene, it was very easy and effortless, and it was completed soon.


    After Ye Kehuan returned to her room, she felt a little strange when she remembered the fascination with Jiang Laien.


    After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Kehuan shook her head, pressed on her temples, put down the script, turned off the light, and started to sleep.


    The next day, before five o¡¯clock in the morning, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien got up and set off for the crew. Because of the early sun in the sky, everything seemed to be deeply asleep, still far from waking up.


    After sitting down in the dressing room, the two of them seized the time to eat the cakes and sugar-free soy milk bought by the assistants while they were putting on make-up. They also went over the script a bit. Being an actor seemed to be like that. What was always displayed in front of the public was the glamorous side, which made people always think that they can make money by moving their arms and legs casually, but they didn¡¯t know that behind the screen, they put in a lot of effort.


    Of course, except for some little demons.


    Cheng Yan looked at Ye Kehuan from the side, only cursing in her heart, ¡°Really able to pretend to work hard¡±, then walked to Jiang Laien and smiled: ¡°Sister Jiang¡¯s skin is really good.¡±


    After finally being placed in the same cast as the heavyweight players in the entertainment industry, Cheng Yan would of course try to get closer. You know, if you could break into Jiang Laien¡¯s circle of friends, her reputation would increase a lot.


    When Jiang Laien heard the words, she looked up and smiled: ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    After saying the simple two words, Jiang Laien continued to read the script again, and she didn¡¯t want to talk to her at all, even chatting with Ye Kehuan about the dream she had the previous night.


    Cheng Yan was watching, but she couldn¡¯t figure out what about Ye Kehuan was so good, making Jiang Laien brush her off fiercely.


    After a while, after putting on makeup, Ye Kehuan walked out and saw that outside they were already shooting. The scene was Zhang Haotian¡¯s. He played a policeman. He was also Su He¡¯s friend in the movie. He handled a recent case in the department.


    Ye Kehuan stood there watching everyone filming, and suddenly she felt a rush of blood. It has to be said that a powerful actor is very powerful. A look and an action could always be done in a special zone, very life-like, with no traces of acting, as if he wasn¡¯t the character in a script, but he happens to be filmed accidentally.


    In the blink of an eye ,when Zhang Haotian¡¯s filming was over, it was Ye Kehuan¡¯s turn.


    Before in the audition, she took the part in a small room, but that day she would officially enter the apartment of the black sheep actress Su He.


    After entering, she saw that the layout was quite sloppy, whether it was the unfolded quilt on the bed, or the clothes on the ground, everything was messy. But it was messy but not dirty, and it was quite a recreation of the script.


    Since Ye Kehuan had performed that section once before, it was quite easy to perform it this time.


    Lu Yan cleared her throat after seeing it from the sidelines: ¡°She¡¯s not bad at acting.¡±


    Zhang Haotian looked at her, nodded, and said in his heart: No wonder Director Chen will use her. He felt that she was more suitable for the role than Cheng Yan.


    And after Cheng Yan watched Ye Kehuan¡¯s performance, she secretly chuckled. A good performance here doesn¡¯t mean that you can do it all the way through.


    In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and after the boxed lunch arrived and was distributed to everyone, everyone found a place to eat. Cheng Yan looked around and was about to go to Jiang Laien¡¯s side, only to find that Ye Kehuan had rushed to Jiang Laien¡¯s side like a monkey. She was so angry that she was forced to sit next to Lu Yan.


    After Ye Kehuan sat next to Jiang Laien, she opened her box lunch, broke her chopsticks, and put a chopstick full into her mouth, then turned to look at Jiang Laien, ¡°What do you think of my acting?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°Very good, compared to what you did in the past, your progress is very obvious and there is a qualitative leap.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°What would I lie to you for?¡± Jiang Laien tilted her head.


    Ye Kehuan smiled contentedly, and then frowned slightly: ¡°Wait, have you seen the roles I played before?¡±


    Jiang Laien paused her chopsticks that were about to pick up the vegetables, and looked at her sideways: ¡°If I say I watched them all, would you believe it or not?¡±


    The tip of her chopsticks moved a piece of potato, and Jiang Laien continued: ¡°Whether it was your debut, the one that was hacked the most, or the studio variety show, I watched them all.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was holding the box lunch, feeling a little embarrassed: ¡°Those dramas are bad, their plots are bad, the characters are bad, my acting skills are bad. I can¡¯t stand them, how can you watch them¡­¡±


    Some of those black histories were so horrible that she couldn¡¯t stand it herself, and Jiang Laien still watched them all.


    After listening, Jiang Laien put some of Ye Kehuan¡¯s favorite, spare ribs, into her lunch box, and said softly: ¡°Look at you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her plain white fingers holding the chopsticks ,and the corners of her lips were raised uncontrollably, and she picked up the only two prawns on her side: ¡°What can I see¡­¡±


    ¡°You love shrimp, don¡¯t give it to me, keep it for yourself.¡± The next second, Jiang Laien threw the shrimp back to her, and even picked up her own two.


    ¡°Sure enough, as the netizens said, this is **** love¡­¡± At this moment, the passing director Chen let out a sigh of emotion.


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, her ears started burning: ¡°Director Chen!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m just passing by, you continue.¡± Chen Fei stepped aside, took out a cigarette to light it, and waved at them.


    After pulling her eyes back from him, Ye Kehuan scratched her ears uncomfortably, looked at Jiang Laien, and smiled awkwardly: ¡°Director Chen is really humorous, right?¡±


    Jiang Laien laughed after listening.


    Because of being so busy, the filming schedule was very tight. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t take a break when she was resting. When Jiang Laien, Zhang Haotian, etc. were filming, she was watching and studying. So, she felt that the time was passing fast. Yes, while she wasn¡¯t paying attention, it was night, and it was time for Ye Kehuan and Cheng Yan to act as rivals.


    The scene took place backstage of a show where Su He and Mo Jiaojiao were both participating. Probably because it was Su He, Mo Jiaojiao had some reservations initially, so Mo Jiaojiao had always looked down on Su He. Mo Jiaojiao was an entertainer and the host of that show. When Su He came to participate on the show, Mo Jiaojiao mocked her and was scolded by Su He.


    ¡°Action!¡±


    After Chen Fei shouted out, Cheng Yan laughed, and after passing her water glass and mobile phone to her assistant, she walked towards Ye Kehuan. She never felt afraid of acting with Ye Kehuan or anything. She and Ye Kehuan had done many scenes together; which one was not an overwhelming victory?


    ¡°This must be fate, I didn¡¯t expect to meet you here again,¡± Cheng Yan looked at Ye Kehuan, her eyes narrowed, ¡°I heard that your family went bankrupt, so you entered the entertainment industry? What a pity¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan glanced at her, did not respond, turned her head, and continued to look in the mirror at the earrings provided by the sponsor.


    ¡°What¡¯s with your attitude?¡± Cheng Yan was inexplicably angry. Although she knew it was just filming, she couldn¡¯t help but substituting into reality, always feeling that Ye Kehuan in reality was doing the same to her.


    ¡°Who are you?¡± After Ye Kehuan handed the earrings to the sister of the sponsor who was standing aside, she looked at her, suddenly smiled and turned her head to the side, then turned back to look at her. ¡°Why should I give you face? My attitude? Are you high?¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Cheng Yan raised her hand to slap Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Ka----¡± At this moment, Chen Fei looked up from behind the monitor and looked over, ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you Cheng Yan?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Cheng Yan was stunned, her hands rigid in the air.


    ¡°Is it written in the script to slap people?¡± Chen Fei continued to ask.


    ¡°No.¡± Cheng Yan shook her head.


    ¡°You¡¯re improvising? Is it also improvising to slap a person?¡± Chen Fei continued to ask.


    ¡°Sorry, Director Chen, I was too into the role just now.¡± Cheng Yan immediately bowed her head to apologize.


    ¡°Well, let¡¯s start over.¡± Chen Fei said, before shooting again.


    Jiang Laien looked at Cheng Yan from the side, frowning. She felt Cheng Yan was really an eyesore.


    After the re-shooting, Cheng Yan¡¯s condition plummeted, and she couldn¡¯t bring herself back. Obviously it was a very simple plot, and there was no need for her to say too many lines, but she just couldn¡¯t shoot well, or she looked the same, or she talked with her hands, or she bit her tongue. In the end, she couldn¡¯t take the initiative. The eldest lady who went to make trouble and provoke trouble acted as an angry biddy who was forced to do things with a knife to her neck. She was always NG, and everyone around her was a little impatient.


    ¡­


    They didn¡¯t know how long had passed, but the scene was finally over. Chen Fei¡¯s expression was quite unsightly.


    The talented actors in the circle were also a little speechless because of Cheng Yan¡¯s bad acting skills, and they could only stare at each other.


    After Cheng Yan finished acting, she didn¡¯t talk to anyone anymore, she just bit her lips tightly with red eyes, and she was going crazy.


    Next, it was the turn of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien--the scene where Su He met the female ghost Qi Luo.


    After the two women put on their makeup and everything in the venue was ready, Chen Fei gave an order and the filming started.


    In the street late at night, after Ye Kehuan arrived at a high-end apartment in a nanny car, as soon as the car stopped, she picked up the strap of her bag and threw it over her shoulder and jumped out.


    The moment when she jumped down, Ye Kehuan was a little stunned. Regarding the next scene, could she make it? She was doing pretty well so far that day, and she hoped she could continue to do well and make a persistent effort¡­


    Okay! I can do it, I can do it. Jiang Laien said that I was pretty good in this scene last night.


    That day¡¯s Chongyuan City was still flooded with light snow, and it was late at night, that kind of depression was vividly displayed.


    Ye Kehuan jumped out of the car. After the car left, she rubbed her hands gently and said ¡°It¡¯s cold¡±. She raised her foot and walked forward, only to find a woman in a long straight white dress standing with her back to her in an instant. I¡¯m confused, it¡¯s not going to work, it¡¯s not going to work.


    ¡°That,¡± Ye Kehuan thought about the content of the script, then raised her foot and walked forward a few steps, ¡°Excuse me, miss, you¡­¡±


    At that time, Jiang Laien, who played the female ghost Qi Luo, turned sideways and raised her eyes to look at Ye Kehuan.


    Under the effect of the female ghost makeup, Jiang Laien was pale, and the blood on her forehead was still flowing down. In addition, her hair was extremely long, which hid both sides of her face, and she looked really gloomy and terrifying. Ye Kehuan had to say that Jiang Laien was really amazing. A look in her eyes showed the essence of Qi Luo.


    The moment that Ye Kehuan saw her, she opened her eyes wide, gulping, and backed away, her face full of horror.


    Afterwards, Qi Luo, played by Jiang Laien, completely turned around and followed her with a blank face.


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan stepped on a can prop that the team had put behind her in advance, and slipped off her feet. In an instant, she leaned back and fell backward, causing her bag to fall to the side and the contents inside scattered to the ground, very embarrassing.


    ¡°Huh¡­ Can you see me?¡± In the next second, Jiang Laien walked to her, squatted down, stretched out her slender and abnormally white hand, and gently touched her chin.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t answer, but immediately grabbed the bag next to her, and ran into the apartment, scrambling against the ground, even refusing to collect the skin care products and cosmetics from the ground.


    After running into the apartment, Ye Kehuan went crazy and pressed all the elevator buttons. While waiting for the elevator door to open, she kept turning left and right. She also subconsciously hugged her bag tightly, with blue veins protruding from the back of her hand. She looked very anxious all over, and her pacing back and forth that never fully stopped conveyed the feeling that her nerves were highly tense at the moment.


    Finally, the elevator door opened and Ye Kehuan ran in immediately.


    Chen Fei looked at Ye Kehuan from behind the monitor, and the corner of his lips twitched: ¡°Card----¡±


    After that episode, everyone around was stunned. Yes, everyone did not expect that Ye Kehuan would have passed it all at once, and the scene was not short. It could be said that she was in a very good state.


    After Ye Kehuan finished filming that scene, everyone around was stunned. No one thought that Ye Kehuan¡¯s performance among the little flowers was so good--it was incredible. Compared with that, little flower Cheng Yan, who was praised by everyone, performed very ordinarily that day. What was wrong with the world?


    The most embarrassed one was Lu Yan. After all, she mocked Ye Kehuan at the dinner table the previous night, but Ye Kehuan slapped her in the face that day.


    But Zhang Haotian, who had never been optimistic about Ye Kehuan, couldn¡¯t help but raise his eyebrows: ¡°This kid¡­¡±


    ¡°This kid is actually very smart. It is not difficult for her to learn to fly. She just needs someone to help her open the doors and windows.¡± Chen Fei looked at him sideways, and the corners of his lips raised lightly.


    Zhang Haotian held his hands behind him and nodded in agreement.


    ¡°Prepare for the next one!¡± Chen Fei looked at the staff.


    The next scene to be shot was Su He¡¯s performance after entering the elevator. The main reason was that her single emotion was the same, to show her fear after meeting a ghost. The scene was the same as before. Ye Kehuan still portrayed Su He very well, so the filming was finished soon.


    Next, there would be the last scene of the day.


    The last scene was when Su He got out of the elevator and arrived at the room where she was staying. She just inserted the key into the keyhole and found that the ghost sister appeared next to her again, and was frightened again by the content.


    The crew went up, set up the equipment, and set up the lights, and then the filming continued.


    ¡°ACTION!¡±


    Under the director¡¯s order, all the staff were in their positions.


    At this time, the elevator door opened with a ¡°ding¡± sound. After Ye Kehuan came out of the back, holding her bag like a fool, she let out a sigh of relief, looked back and forth down the corridor, and ran all the way to the door of her apartment. Then she took out the key from the inner pocket of her bag, inserted it into the keyhole and prepared to unlock it.


    At that moment, a strand of hair fell on her hand. Ye Kehuan¡¯s movements stopped in an instant, and she slowly raised her head, looking up along the hair. So, Qi Luo¡¯s pale face appeared in front of her in an instant--


    ¡°Damn--!¡± After Ye Kehuan shouted, she backed away in a panic, but there was nowhere to go. She just looked at Qi Luo in front of her, ¡°You, you, you, how did you come up?!¡±


    Jiang Laien still stared straight at her: ¡°I followed you up.¡±


    ¡°Fuck!¡± Ye Kehuan shouted again, then opened the door and slammed it shut.


    ¡°Ka--¡± Chen Fei said after the filming, ¡°Okay, were able to shoot this scene today.¡±


    After hearing Chen Fei¡¯s voice, Ye Kehuan opened the door and came out from inside, and then carefully asked Chen Fei: ¡°Director Chen, am I doing well today?¡±


    Chen Fei smiled: ¡°Well, not bad.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s good, that¡¯s good, I¡¯m afraid I might mess up.¡± Ye Kehuan held her face in both hands and paced back and forth a few steps.


    ¡°She had been thinking about the script last night.¡± At this moment, Jiang Laien smiled and pushed the hair blocking the sides of her cheeks away and pressed them behind her ears, and began to say good things about Ye Kehuan.


    After listening to what Jiang Laien said, Zhang Haotian nodded thoughtfully: ¡°How rare.¡±


    ¡°Right, here, here.¡± Just when Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were about to leave, Chen Fei handed them two scripts again.


    ¡°This is?¡± Ye Kehuan was a little confused.


    ¡°The part you are going to shoot tomorrow.¡± Chen Fei said.


    ¡°This script doesn¡¯t seem to be¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded.


    At that time, Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°It¡¯s long been known that Director Chen loves to change scenes of the script, really.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at the script, ¡°So, this is a new script?¡±


    ¡°In fact, some things have been added, which will be more interesting. I have asked my assistant to mark out the parts to be shot tomorrow.¡± Chen Fei nodded.


    Ye Kehuan nodded and turned over the script she held in her hand with her head down. As a result, she was stunned when she saw it, and even her stance became stiff.


    ¡°Tomorrow we are going to film¡­ Qi Luo makes Su He overflow with compassion. Su He saw her as a human being and thought she was dirty and pitiful, and then¡­ gave Qi Luo a bath, treated her wounds, applied skin care, makeup, and cooked?¡± Ye Kehuan closed the script and turned her head to look at him.


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she turned her head and opened the script, and then burst into laughter.


    ¡°Well,¡± Chen Fei folded his arms and nodded with his eyes closed, ¡°After all, I am still very commercial. I think young people would like to watch it.¡±


    Chen Fei¡¯s words were light, but Ye Kehuan¡¯s brain was already a mess. Here, give Qi Luo a bath? In other words, she was going to bathe Jiang Laien?¡±


    The author has something to say: Miss Jiang: ¡°Why, not willing?¡±


    Hey, it feels like no one is bubbling, I¡¯m a little bit out of motivation¡­

 CH 30

    ¡°This¡­¡± Director Chen¡¯s operation was too sudden, and Ye Kehuan¡¯s brain couldn¡¯t fathom it for a while. After a long time, she just smiled, ¡°Okay.¡±


    How should she put it¡­ She now felt very subtle about Jiang Laien. Every time she leaned close to her, her heart would be banging and her body would become a little stiff, so she was not sure whether she would be able to perform the scene well. But she would certainly not be stupid enough to argue with Director Chen in that regard. Because, Director Chen adding those elements really sounded interesting and reasonable.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Chen Fei fiddled with the equipment in front of him and began to lead everyone to continue shooting.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien took their assistants back to the cast dressing room and put on their own clothes.


    Probably because it was really late, the two assistants couldn¡¯t help but yawn slightly when they were packing up the costumes.


    Ye Kehuan stood in front of the makeup mirror and pulled the zipper of her big down jacket to the top. She looked sideways at Jiang Laien, who was still wearing ghostly makeup. She reached out and picked up a box of eyeshadow trays on the table and opened it to play with. ¡°Then shall we go back now?¡±


    ¡°Okay, but wait for me to remove my makeup first.¡± Jiang Laien put the down jacket on the chair, tied her hair, sat down at the dressing table, and then took some makeup remover wipes from her assistant. With her makeup as she was, if she walked out, she would scare people to death, and then she would get put on the social news.


    ¡°Well,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, ¡°then I¡¯ll take off my makeup here, too.¡±


    Her makeup was quite thick and ostentatious. After all, the role she played in the movie came off stage after a show.


    The dressing room was a bit messy; it looked like a utility room, and at the same time, it was very quiet. After all, the director¡¯s work was about to be finished. The young actors who were still waiting for their scenes had all put on their makeup and left. So in there there was only the two of them and their assistants, which made it quite relaxed.


    After taking out the makeup remover wipes, Jiang Laien paused, then turned her head and looked at her assistant: ¡°Yingying, you go back first.¡±


    Yingying, who had just put a small mirror in Jiang Laien¡¯s bag, raised her head. Her tired expression was wiped away in an instant, and there was a hint of joy in her eyes: ¡°Oh, good!¡±


    Ye Kehuan chuckled, and turned her head to look at her assistant: ¡°Chao Mingqing, you can go back too. You have worked hard, go back and have a good rest.¡± 1


    As for Chao Mingqing, she pulled the zipper of Ye Kehuan¡¯s bag, smiled at Yingying, and then grabbed her own bag, and ran out with Yingying arm in arm, and they were discussing as they walked. Would you like to eat something later?


    Jiang Laien looked sideways at the two girls leaving the dressing room. After a while, she turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan and pressed the makeup remover wipes in her hands: ¡°They look so young, don¡¯t they. Right?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, they are really young and energetic; I don¡¯t even know when they got so close.¡± Ye Kehuan pulled off her fake eyelashes and looked over with a smile on the corner of her mouth. ¡°They¡¯re sticking together like glue in the blink of an eye.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, the two of them have a good relationship now. When they were free, they would gather together and chat together, laughing the whole time.¡± Jiang Laien finally got the makeup off her left hand. The makeup was quite thick, and it was not only on her face, but also on her neck, lower arms, and hands--mainly to highlight the characteristics of a ghost.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan kept smiling, nodded, and used a very bold technique to remove her makeup.


    ¡°Hey, it suddenly occurred to me that it was like that when it was time for us to study.¡± Jiang Laien lowered her eyes and looked at her hand over and over again. ¡°Weren¡¯t we the same way back then? Every time I started to leave class, you ran out arm in arm with me. Once school was over, we rushed towards the dining hall together.¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s makeup had been removed, but she still took a wet wipe and pressed it on her face to make sure it was all gone. ¡°We really made a lot of messes at the time. It¡¯s something. I remember it was not very popular in the class to read novels, so we secretly circulated them. Then we fell into a pit when we stacked textbooks up in order to not be discovered by the teacher. So high it could only be to cover something up. In the end, we were found out, and then we were both picked up by the teacher and sent to detention.¡±


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Jiang Laien laughed. ¡°Ah, I suddenly remember the barbecue restaurant at the back door of our school at that time. It can be said that the doorway was almost broken by us.¡±


    ¡°Liu Ji, right?¡± Ye Kehuan smiled heartily.


    ¡°Yes, because we went too many times, the boss knew us. If others went, the boss would habitually ask what they want to eat, but when we went, the boss will directly say, ¡®Four skewers of grilled gluten and four skewers of dried tofu with four bunches of enoki mushrooms, right.¡¯¡± Jiang Laien pressed the makeup remover wipes to her left eye.


    ¡°Yes, once we just walked in, he just said that the roasted gluten is gone today, you should look at other things,¡± Ye Kehuan played with a small brush on the dressing table, squeezing her fingers on the soft bristles. ¡°I¡¯m so hungry. I want to eat barbecue.¡±


    ¡°I think so too.¡± Jiang Laien turned to look at her and nodded.


    ¡°Then I will check if there is a barbecue restaurant nearby? Anyway, Brother Haotian and Sister Lu Yan have to leave the crew the day after tomorrow. The director will film their scenes tomorrow. Our scene won¡¯t be arranged until the evening, so we don¡¯t need to get up early in the morning.¡± Ye Kehuan immediately picked up her phone.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s take a look.¡± Jiang Laien smiled and continued to remove the very thick makeup.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan found a barbecue restaurant that was close to their homestay there and within a walk of only two hundred meters. Looking at the app, everyone¡¯s evaluation of it was pretty good, and their closing time was very late. The two decided to go there.


    After walking down the street, Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief. She just raised her foot to take another step, but instead her arm was pulled. In an instant, Jiang Laien stopped walking. In the next second, Ye Kehuan stood beside her.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her sideways.


    Ye Kehuan used her other hand to pull on her collar, pressed the hat on her head again, and sorted out her mask, before coughing gently and looking at her: ¡°We can also go back like Yingying and Mingqing did. Arm?¡±


    After Jiang Laien looked at her for a long time, she suddenly laughed out loud.


    ¡°What, what¡­¡± Ye Kehuan looked a little awkward. ¡°What are you laughing at¡­¡±


    ¡°Of course we can, little fool.¡± Jiang Laien tilted her head and looked at her.


    ¡°Then you are a big idiot.¡± Ye Kehuan murmured, feeling that the palm of her hand was faintly sweating.


    ¡°Okay, shall we go now?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    The sparse snow had stopped at that time. There were few pedestrians in the street at night, and there were also few vehicles. The warm yellow street lights drew the shadows of the two people diagonally, and time seemed to pass slowly. It was cold in winter, but nestling with each other was the best heating device that season.


    After a while of the two following a map, they arrived. It was an old shop. Whether it was the signboard or the tables and chairs within, they looked quite flammable.


    Shockingly, the boss was a pretty young woman, wearing a black cotton coat and smoky gray pencil pants, with a half-bald head combed. Her face was small and angular, her drooping eyelashes were distinct, and her left ear was plugged with headphones. Standing behind the grill at that moment, grilling a lot of meat skewers in a very skillful way, she looked quite cool.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked over and stood still, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand: ¡°Boss, four skewers of grilled gluten, four skewers of tofu, and four enoki mushrooms!¡±


    After listening, the boss raised her head to show her narrow eyes, and glanced at her casually: ¡°Is that all?¡±


    ¡°I still want to eat chicken wings.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°Then add two more chicken wings.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°To go or eat here?¡± The boss sprinkled some cumin on the skewers, her tone light.


    ¡°Eat here.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at the store. There was no one inside, just a middle-aged diner in a suit and leather shoes.


    ¡°Good. Choose where you want to sit.¡± The boss nodded.


    So Ye Kehuan took Jiang Laien and sat down at a table in the corner.


    After sitting down, Ye Kehuan discovered that the well-dressed middle-aged diner in the store has a discordant face that was inconsistent with his clothes. He was red nosed while eating barbecue and drinking. He looked sad, but she had no way of knowing what happened. He covered his face with his hand as he ate, as if trying to suppress something.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what happened to him, but she sighed softly.


    At that time, the middle-aged diner suddenly said: ¡°I don¡¯t know why. I should be happy to see that Wanwan, who has been single for ten years, got married, but the truth is, I just can¡¯t get happy. I¡¯m not happy anymore. I¡¯ll never stand up again¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were stunned after listening. Was he crying to himself about something?


    ¡°Huh¡­¡± At that moment, the barbecue shop owner said lightly, ¡°I know you are not happy. You have been crying in this place for one round after another.¡±


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien glanced at each other. It turned out that they were chatting, but when they came in, their chat was interrupted.


    ¡°Really?¡± The middle-aged diner picked up a bunch of chicken drumsticks.


    ¡°Whether you come to me to cry after working overtime everyday, you would know, huh?¡± The boss replied.


    ¡°Yes¡­¡± The middle-aged diner smiled and pressed his heart with his hand. ¡°Because, here, it really hurts.¡±


    ¡°You asked for it yourself, who can you blame?¡± The boss¡¯s voice was still very weak.


    ¡°I asked for it?¡± The middle-aged diner looked at her.


    ¡°She¡¯s been alone for ten years, and she¡¯s been empty for ten years. In those ten years, you were as close as possible, but you never recognized what was in your heart and did nothing.¡± The boss put the grilled meat on the skewers.  Setting them on a plate, she leisurely walked to his table and put it in front of him. ¡°She has been waiting for you for ten years. Did you expect her to wait for you for a lifetime? Wake up.¡±


    After the boss finished talking, she went back to the grill and kept busy. The middle-aged diner continued to drink.


    After listening to their conversation, Ye Kehuan inexplicably stretched out her hand to press her heart, then looked at the middle-aged diner, and then at the barbecue shop owner for a while.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Jiang Laien asked at that moment.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her suddenly, as if something was choking her throat, and finally shook her head: ¡°Nothing¡­¡±


    After eating the barbecue and returning to the hotel, Ye Kehuan finished changing her shoes and took out the new script from her bag. The scene that she saw at the barbecue shop earlier was like a movie scene in her mind. It took her a long time to wake up.


    Shaking her head, Ye Kehuan put the script aside and entered the bathroom to start washing.


    After washing up, Ye Kehuan picked up the script and lay on the bed, preparing to recite the new items in the part to be filmed the next day. She had to say that Director Chen was really an old ghost, and it was really fun to deal with him normally. Just¡­


    When she saw the part of the bath, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and wiped it under her nose, and the words she heard in the barbecue shop sounded in her mind again.


    In addition, she remembered how she felt when she kissed Jiang Laien in her dream.


    ¡°Damn¡­¡± Ye Kehuan put the script on her forehead, feeling like she was about to die.


    ¡°How can this be? Damn, damn, damn!¡± Ye Kehuan picked up the script and hit her forehead several times.


    After finally getting rid of the messy thoughts in her mind, Ye Kehuan tried her best to memorize the script, and then she went to sleep with the lamp on.


    The next day.


    After Ye Kehuan woke up, although her time to come for filming was far away, she still put on a big down jacket and went to the crew to watch everyone acting early.


    The crew was really not a place for idlers. Except for the well-dressed actors and actresses who looked good, the other staff¡­ At first glance they seemed to have been devastated by the wind and frost.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan coming, Chen Fei looked up at her while filming: ¡°So early?¡±


    ¡°Came to study.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    Chen Fei nodded: ¡°Good attitude.¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°Thanks to the stars.¡±


    Then Ye Kehuan watched Zhang Haotian act in earnest.


    The movie actually told that Qi Luo was the first victim in a serial killer case, and Su He was the only person who could see her. Zhang Haotian, the policeman Lu Xun, was a close friend of Su He. He happened to be the policeman who handled the case, but he still had no clues until Su He met Qi Luo and got some clues from Qi Luo, so he and Su He used some clues provided by Qi Luo to investigate the case.


    As a result, after checking, Su He and Lu Xun accidentally poked the snake, and the bad guys behind the scenes used various methods to make everyone think that they were actually the serial killers. But in the end, the real serial killer and his assistants were arrested. After the truth was revealed and their innocence was proved, Qi Luo¡¯s grievances disappeared.


    At that time, Zhang Haotian was filming a scene where he and his colleagues were arguing about the director of the investigation. He almost showed the essence of anger in his performance. When he pointed at someone¡¯s forehead and shouted, ¡°Thank you, please take me seriously¡±, everyone was a little bit confused. Someone went to check if he was really angry with that actor or just acting.


    Zhang Haotian was really serious when filming. He didn¡¯t need a substitute at all. He did everything by himself, and he always strived for perfection, which was awe-inspiring.


    In the blink of an eye, it was night, and it was finally Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien¡¯s turn.


    Jiang Laien with good makeup looked gloomy and dirty, because there was a lot of blood and mud on her clothes.


    The scene was filmed from the Su He apartment.


    After everything was ready, Chen Fei looked at them: ¡°Action!¡±


    In an instant, Ye Kehuan stood close to the door with her back, gulping, acting out her fear.


    At that moment, a pale hand stretched out and poked her in the face.


    ¡°Damn!¡± Ye Kehuan looked sideways and found that there was blood on Jiang Laien¡¯s forearm. She instantly hugged her bag and prepared to hide aside, ¡°You, you, are you a ghost?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her, nodding after a while.


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she was ready to run away without saying a word.


    But at that moment, Jiang Laien spoke again, her voice extremely soft, like wings fluttering in the air: ¡°Am I scaring you? Sorry, don¡¯t be afraid of me, OK?¡±


    Ye Kehuan shrank: ¡°Who are you trying to fool? Who the **** can¡¯t be afraid of this kind of thing?!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry,¡± Jiang Laien said softly.


    ¡°Then can¡¯t you not follow me? I¡¯m afraid of ghosts, and I didn¡¯t harm you!¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°I know you are a good person.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s face had a pitiful expression, ¡°but no one can see me or touch me. Only you can. Therefore, I want to ask you for a favor.¡±


    ¡°Why, why, are you busy?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Come with me and help me find out,¡± Jiang Laien moved closer to her, ¡°the person who killed me.¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡± Ye Kehuan rubbed her head. ¡°Where do I have this ability? I can¡¯t, you find someone else!¡±


    After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, Jiang Laien slowly lowered her head, and then tears gradually fell from her face, and she cried silently.


    At that moment, she didn¡¯t know whether it was because she was too involved in the role or Jiang Laien¡¯s acting skills were too good. Ye Kehuan was also a little confused. She just knew that her heart was hit instantly and her whole body became uncomfortable.


    ¡°You, don¡¯t cry.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Please,¡° Jiang Laien looked at her, wetting her white lips, ¡°Please.¡±


    In the end, after Ye Kehuan scratched her head in embarrassment, she frowned and said, ¡°It¡¯s alright, I promise you!¡±


    ¡°Ka--¡± Chen Fei showed a satisfied look on his face.


    Before Ye Kehuan was able to get out of the role too much, Chen Fei saw that she was still in a good state, so he went on to take another one without stopping.


    The next one was Su He tidying up for Qi Luo.


    After shooting, Ye Kehuan quickly entered a good state again, raised her hand, touched the button of the room light, and looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Can I turn on the light? I have to ask, are you afraid of light?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay if it¡¯s not the sun.¡± Jiang Laien said softly.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll get it.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she pressed the button and walked forward two steps, then opened the refrigerator, took out a bowl of instant noodles from inside, soaked them, and sat on the sofa to prepare to eat.


    At that time, Jiang Laien stood in front of her again and looked at the bowl of instant noodles motionlessly.


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her. ¡°Do you want to eat too?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s weird that ghosts would even want to eat.¡± Ye Kehuan muttered and stood up and walked towards the refrigerator. ¡°What do you want to eat?¡±


    ¡°Instant noodles are good,¡± Jiang Laien turned her head, ¡°I haven¡¯t eaten human food for a long time.¡±


    Ye Kehuan, who had just opened the door of the refrigerator, stopped there instantly, glanced at her sideways, took out the instant noodles from the refrigerator, paused with her fingers, took out a box of lunch meat, an egg, a handful of vegetables, and closed the refrigerator door. She shook the things in the air: ¡°You wait a moment.¡±


    After a while, Ye Kehuan brought a bowl of noodles to the coffee table in front of the sofa, and put it in front of Jiang Laien: ¡°Eat.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, took the chopsticks, pinched a bunch, and ate slowly.


    ¡­


    Watching them from afar, Chen Fei smiled, satisfied, and nodded.


    Not bad. He always wanted to shoot a pure ghost. Jiang Laien played it well. Ye Kehuan also fit her role very well. Basically nothing was NG.


    The scenes for entering the house were filmed, the scenes that promised help were filmed, the scenes for making food and eating were filmed, and all that was left was for the ghost to take a shower and change clothes, and deal with the wounds on her arms and forehead.


    Ye Kehuan panicked in front of the group at that moment. Jiang Laien turned her head slightly and looked at her.


    ¡°Um, director, why is she doing that?¡± Ye Kehuan asked hurriedly.


    ¡°Take off your clothes and wash,¡± Chen Fei looked at her, ¡°Isn¡¯t that what the script said?¡±


    ¡°Um¡­ I¡­¡±  Ye Kehuan opened her mouth, ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    The author has something to say: I can¡¯t see it when I see someone say a comment. If I don¡¯t see the comment, I become lazy or something¡­


    But I can see it!


    The translator has something to say: Check the MTL if you want, these really aren¡¯t me¡­ But I also wouldn¡¯t mind more comments. Thanks for the thanks.


    1 - This person''s name is never translated properly. It is either Mingqing, Ming and Qing, or Ming and Qing Dynasties. So, I decided to make it Chao Mingqing. Assuming the given name is as it''s written when Kehuan refers to her, Chao means Dynasty, so Chao Mingqing.

 CH 31

    In the script, it was written that after a few mouthfuls of noodles, Qi Luo drank a few more sips of wine, and became a veritable drunk. Su He was forced to take her into the bathroom and wash.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked to the bathroom, the surrounding staff began to set up their seats.


    Obviously Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t need to undress in this scene--she was the one who undressed the other, but it was still her that was mixed up.


    ¡°Let¡¯s start.¡± Chen Fei said when everything was ready.


    Ye Kehuan blinked and nodded.


    ¡°Action!¡±


    Do my best! It¡¯s not a big-scale drama. It¡¯s neither kissing nor that. What are you afraid of?!


    Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien who was already lying in the bathtub, squatting down, muttering not to be NG in her heart, and said her lines: ¡°How long have you been floating outside dirty like this¡­¡±


    Trying to control her hands and not let herself tremble, Ye Kehuan opened the tap while unbuttoning the first button on Jiang Laien¡¯s shirt.


    Under her shirt, she didn¡¯t wear anything. If she continued to untie it, she would probably see some places she should look at¡­ Although Chen Fei¡¯s camera positions had avoided Jiang Laien¡¯s sensitive spots, and the staff may not be able to see from where they were, Ye Kehuan could see everything, even though the light was dim, and there was water in the bathtub.


    If, if all was untied¡­


    After realizing, Ye Kehuan was really dying, so she paused and sat down on the ground.


    Chen Fei raised his head and looked at her: ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Jiang Laien in the bathtub also opened her eyes, pulled her clothes slightly, and looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a moment, turned to look at her, bowed her head and apologized: ¡°Director, I¡¯m sorry!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Chen Fei looked at her for a while. ¡°Start again.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded and squatted down next to the bathtub again.


    ¡°Are you okay?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien held her hand on the edge of the bathtub, looked and Ye Kehuan, and asked softly.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her eyes and saw that her neckline and shirt were slightly open, revealing a small piece of delicate collarbone. She could not help but cough softly and shake her head: ¡°It¡¯s okay, that is, I just don¡¯t feel quite right today.¡±


    Ye Kehuan lied. She suddenly discovered that she seemed to have lied a lot to Jiang Laien lately.


    After listening, Jiang Laien was a little worried: ¡°Would you like to talk to Director Chen? Let¡¯s go to the hospital and check it out?¡±


    ¡°No, I¡¯m okay, let¡¯s continue shooting!¡± Ye Kehuan immediately shook her head when she heard the word hospital.


    ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Finally, after NG three times, Ye Kehuan took off Jiang Laien¡¯s clothes smoothly, and then forced herself to focus on the water surface instead of casting her eyes to some places under the water instead.


    ¡°Unexpectedly, I met the real version of Nie Xiaoqian¡­¡± Ye Kehuan continued to speak while wiping Jiang Laien¡¯s arms and shoulders with a towel.


    At that time, Jiang Laien began to groan, and grabbed Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand: ¡°Mom¡­¡±


    Yes, it was written in the script that the reason why Su He was determined to help Qi Luo was precisely because Qi Luo appeared pitiful from small details, which touches Su He.


    Ye Kehuan started at her hand, signed, and put her other hand on hers.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien suddenly hugged Ye Kehuan, buried her face in her shoulders and began to cry; tears and water wet Ye Kehuan¡¯s clothes.


    But Ye Kehuan wasn¡¯t fully able to enter the scene, and her whole person was a bit stiff.


    Too close, too close! Although she couldn¡¯t see it, Ye Kehuan felt the softness of Jiang Laien¡¯s chest that was close to her then. Such a touch made her want to rub Jiang Laien very much, into her own body.


    Are you crazy? If Jiang Laien knows that your mind is full of such dirty thoughts, she would definitely leave!


    Ye Kehuan calmed her mind, stretched out her hand to stroke her smooth back and patted gently, but she felt a little dry and her whole body was still stiff.


    What Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know was that Jiang Laien¡¯s body also reacted vaguely. She was just holding her like that, she obviously hadn¡¯t done anything, but she felt that her body was heating up, as if only Ye Kehuan¡¯s breath was needed. By lingering around her in that way, she would have some special desires.


    ¡°Card--¡± At that moment, Chen Fei called for a halt. ¡°Okay, next one.¡±


    Ye Kehuan woke up, hurriedly separated from Jiang Laien, looked away, and then looked at Chen Fei: ¡°The scene just now¡­ I¡¯ve passed it?¡±


    ¡°Yes, you acted well with Su He¡¯s complicated emotions.¡± Chen Fei nodded.


    This is a crooked beating, right? Complex emotions or something¡­ Ye Kehuan was conflicted.


    The next step was to film Su He giving her a bathrobe and blow drying her hair and treating wounds.


    Fortunately, there was no need for too much detail there. The clothes were actually put on by Jiang Laien herself. Ye Kehuan only needed to help her tie up the belt and organize some things.


    Inadvertently, that day¡¯s filming work was complete.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien took off their makeup, changed clothes, and left the set. It was midnight again.


    As she walked, Jiang Laien spoke first: ¡°Were you uncomfortable tonight? You felt a little weird.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a while, looked at her sideways, the thoughts in her head turning over and over, and finally pointed with her finger: ¡°It¡¯s just a little dizzy here.¡±


    ¡°Dizzy? Now? Do you want to see a doctor?¡± Jiang Laien immediately held her wrist, her expression full of worry.


    Ye Kehuan was panicked, and she shook her head with an awkward smile: ¡°No, that¡¯s not good. It¡¯s getting better now. Maybe because my hair blew too much during the day, because I was watching them film all day.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Jiang Laien frowned and looked at her with her head tilted.


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s okay, don¡¯t worry about it. My physical fitness is good, you know.¡± Ye Kehuan finished speaking and smiled at her.


    ¡°But, why don¡¯t you let me worry about it?¡± Jiang Laien glanced at her, ¡°I¡¯m not some nodding acquaintance.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, and her sense of shame became stronger for a while. Jiang Laien treated her so well, but she, like a stinky man, yelled at her from head to toe. That was just tarnishing Jiang Laien, and it was shameless.


    ¡°I will definitely take care of myself.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her head and looked forward and coughed. ¡°However, you also have to take care of yourself. You need to take care of yourself. You should eat regularly and not just instant noodles. Eat something real.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her sideways and smiled lightly: ¡°But the food I cook is awful, and I can¡¯t eat it at all, what should I do?¡±


    ¡°Then¡­¡± Ye Kehuan scratched her head, ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll do it for you if I have time.¡±


    ¡°So good?¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°Of course, I¡¯m your good Chinese girlfriend.¡± Ye Kehuan said stupidly.


    ¡°Good girlfriend?¡± Jiang Laien laughed.


    ¡°Yes, you still haven¡¯t gotten a family anyway.¡± Ye Kehuan thought of this inexplicably.


    After listening, Jiang Laien nodded and said, ¡°That¡¯s true¡­¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Speaking of which,¡± Jiang Laien rubbed her forehead and asked tentatively, ¡°My friend introduced me to someone a few days ago, saying that she would arrange for us to meet when I finished filming this segment. You say, should I see them or not?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan was suddenly confused when she heard that.


    In her mind, that kind of thing should be very far away for Jiang Laien, but it turned around so far?


    ¡°Why are you so shocked?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°I,¡± Ye Kehuan coughed, ¡°No, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be so fast. Are you not a career-oriented person? Anyway, how should I say, with this kind of thing, be cautious.¡±


    Jiang Laien stopped.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her. ¡°What should I be cautious about?¡±


    Hearing that question, Ye Kehuan almost broke her teeth and barely smiled: ¡°Yes, there are a lot of bad guys, and girls have to learn to protect themselves. I¡¯m not joking, that is, scumbags are really good. There are many, a lot of human faces and animal hearts. You can¡¯t relax.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her and nodded thoughtfully. Looking up again, they arrived at the hotel, and the two walked in together.


    After the two walked to the door of their respective rooms, Jiang Laien turned around again and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Get some rest early.¡±


    ¡°Oh¡­ Well, rest early.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, smiling like a family member.


    After watching Jiang Laien enter her room, Ye Kehuan¡¯s whole body, including her energy and spirit, collapsed a bit. She stood there for a while before opening the door of her room.


    Shutting the door, she threw her bag on the sofa, raised her hand to her forehead, stroked her hair again and again, looked up at the ceiling, and sighed. Her whole person looked a little languid.


    It feels¡­ a bit uncomfortable. Is Jiang Laien really going to go on a blind date? Really? Please, she¡¯s only 25, 25. What kind of dating, really¡­ Why do you want to get married so much?! You¡¯re not 52¡­


    Scratching her hair vigorously, Ye Kehuan tidied up and washed, and lay down on her bed. She planned to read the script, but she started to think again.


    She remembered the scenes when she was filming in the crew. She remembered what the CP fans said on Weibo. She also remembered the conversation between the drunk man and the boss in the barbecue shop the previous night, and she remembered that Jiang Laien might have a blind date.


    Her thoughts became vague and disorganized, and she couldn¡¯t sort them out.


    Why do I always have those thoughts about her? Why are you so afraid of her going on a blind date? Isn¡¯t it¡­ I don¡¯t know¡­


    Some disturbing and terrifying speculations sprang up in Ye Kehuan¡¯s head.


    Obviously, she was not someone who had never been in a relationship. She dated Du Mingan before, so how could she be so confused?


    But having said that, the love experience between her and Du Mingan was not of much reference value.


    She and Du Mingan didn¡¯t feel that way together. She and Du Mingan mainly found it fun to be together, not the kind of play that was with emotions, but the kind of fun that was very compatible in all aspects.


    For example, she and him both liked to play video games, they both liked to play table tennis, and they both liked a certain band, and they both had some strange brains, so they always got together.


    Later, she didn¡¯t know which day it started. People around them always said that they were very good together. Gradually, the two of them inexplicably got together.


    As for the acceleration of her heartbeat, it never existed. Even after getting together, it was still the same as before.


    Unexpectedly, her heart didn¡¯t race around Du Mingan, who had dated her, but with Jiang Laien. The world sure is chaotic, right?


    Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t sit still.


    Finally, Ye Kehuan turned on her phone, opened up Chen Lulu¡¯s WeChat, and sent her a message: ¡°Lulu, are you asleep?¡±


    A few seconds later, Chen Lulu replied: ¡°I was asleep, but you suddenly woke me up again.¡±


    ¡°Well, then I won¡¯t disturb you, you continue to sleep.¡± Ye Kehuan sighed.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯m awake anyway. What¡¯s the matter, is there something urgent?¡±


    Ye Kehuan pressed her fingertips on the screen of her phone, and after quietly thinking for a while, she replied: ¡°I just don¡¯t understand somethings.¡±


    ¡°Do you want me to accompany you for a chat?¡± Chen Lulu asked.


    After hesitating for a while, Ye Kehuan still typed a reply: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Immediately afterwards, Chen Lulu¡¯s voice request popped up on the phone screen.


    Ye Kehuan inserted her earbuds, clicked to answer, and put a pillow beside her.


    ¡°What do you want to understand?¡± Chen Lulu yawned lightly. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes and struggled violently psychologically: ¡°It¡¯s this, have you ever had your heart race for a woman?¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Chen Lulu yawned, ¡°When I was a kid, I made a mess of my house. After my mother came back, she slapped my face and my heartbeat accelerated so much.¡±


    To Chen Lulu¡¯s silly answer, Ye Kehuan died without myocardial infarction: ¡°You know I didn¡¯t mean that. That is, has your heart ever beat faster when you were close to a woman, and your mind is filled with all kinds of strange thoughts?¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Chen Lulu yawned again, ¡°Why should my heart speed up for a woman?¡±


    ¡°What if a peerless beauty takes off her clothes and stands in front of you?¡± Ye Kehuan fiddled with the earphone cord, circling it around her fingers.


    ¡°Bah, then I would be jealous.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Kehuan changed her position and lay on her side on the bed.


    ¡°Well, I would definitely be jealous. I am jealous of why the gods sculpted others so well and made me so shabby. However, if there was a handsome guy standing in front of me, hehe¡­¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice became fascinating. ¡°Even if he doesn¡¯t take off his clothes, my heart still beats faster, my face is red, and my nose is bleeding!¡±


    ¡°Really¡­¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s brows furrowed involuntarily, ¡°So, it¡¯s really rare for your heart to race for the same **** or something, right¡­¡±


    ¡°Just put it straight, your heart sped up for which girl?¡± Chen Lulu suddenly asked.


    Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a moment, and immediately denied: ¡°It didn¡¯t!¡±


    ¡°Is it Jiang Laien?¡± However, Chen Lulu unceremoniously picked up the name.


    When she heard that name, what Ye Kehuan wanted to do was instantly escape and deny it, but in the end, ¡°I¡­¡± Ye Kehuan frowned, ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s wrong with me.¡±


    ¡°Do you think that her frowns, smiles, and every move she makes is so cute, that she¡¯s completely drop dead 360 degrees flawless, if someone dared to pick her up you¡¯d say they are not good--even if they really are. You don¡¯t want to admit that anyone is good enough, and you want to slap that person into a pie?¡± Chen Lulu asked.


    Ye Kehuan tightened her lips and nodded: ¡°Yeah.¡±


    ¡°Are you thinking about her no matter what you do, and want to share everything with her first? You sit on WeChat and always wait for her to reply. Once you see her reply, will you respond in seconds? And, seeing her and certain other people get close makes you unhappy?¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice had swept away any of her previous sleepiness, and gradually revealed the vigor of eight groups of people eating melons.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan put her hand on her forehead and bit her lower lip. After a long time and a long ideological struggle, she finally said, ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°Congratulations, you like her.¡± Chen Lulu smiled.


    After Ye Kehuan listened, her eyes widened, her fingers squeezed the sheet tightly, her joints stiffened inch by inch, and her blood and meridians seemed to be irreparably clogged.


    The author has something to say: Thank you for your support, thank you for your comments~


    Writing a story is a very brain-intensive and lonely thing, because if there are no comments, it is really easy for people to fall into a state of self-doubt and lose confidence. If their state is not good, their writing will be very awkward¡­


    Therefore, I hope that friends who like Huanhuan can show up more and support me¡­

 CH 32

    Like her?


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to press on her chest, and she could vaguely feel her heart beating under her hand, and the rhythm was faster than before.


    With her throat sliding, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand to cover her face.


    She couldn¡¯t believe that she would like a woman, and that woman was also her own good friend.


    It was simply a double crit. She felt there must be something wrong. There must be.


    ¡°Are you still there?¡± Chen Lulu asked as Ye Kehuan was no longer speaking.


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°Can¡¯t digest it all at once?¡± Chen Lulu asked again.


    ¡°A little¡­¡± More than a little, Ye Kehuan was about to collapse, and she was hopelessly confused, ¡°How could it be possible, that, she and I, we are friends, I should have liked her long ago.¡±


    ¡°But life is like this, with a lot of uncertainty. Of course, whether you believe it or not, you should ask yourself.¡± Chen Lulu transformed herself into a philosopher.


    Ye Kehuan frowned deeply. After a while, she suddenly thought of something, and asked immediately: ¡°No, how can you analyze it so well? An inexperienced person can¡¯t know all that, right? I have been in love. Now, you haven¡¯t even fallen in love. Have you ever fallen in love?¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡± Chen Lulu suddenly became hesitant to speak, completely different from her usual agile energy.


    ¡°Are you hiding something from me?¡± Ye Kehuan continued to ask, ¡°I told you everything, but you didn¡¯t tell me anything. This is not fair.¡±


    ¡°Mainly because, it¡¯s too embarrassing. Moreover, there is nothing to say.¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice became much softer.


    ¡°Shame?¡± Ye Kehuan was keenly aware that there was big money hidden behind Chen Lulu.


    ¡°Well, it was when I went to Chongyuan City last year to have some barbecue with my little sister, and fell in love with someone selling barbecue at first sight. Because I really liked them so much, it didn¡¯t take long for me to confess. However, after the confession, the other party refused me without saying anything, saying that we were not in the same world at all.¡± Chen Lulu laughed, her voice becoming very low, ¡°So, although I have never been in a relationship, I understand that feeling too.¡±


    That seemed to have happened last spring.


    At the end of the night, on the day before leaving, she mustered up her courage to look at the woman who was wearing a motorcycle jacket and Martin boots, grilling her chicken wings and listening to music. She confessed: ¡°I like you! I want to date you!¡±


    As a result, the woman just raised her narrow eyes and glanced at her, and then faintly said, ¡°I am not interested in women or you¡±, shaming her half to death.


    ¡°So, this is also related to the fact that your pampered ladyship did not do it, but instead suddenly went to open a barbecue restaurant?¡± Ye Kehuan pondered and continued to ask, ¡°Do you still like him?¡±


    ¡°No, I just want to overthrow what that person said to me!¡± Chen Lulu retorted immediately.


    ¡°Um,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, ¡°Okay.¡±


    ¡°By the way, my mother recently made a lot of beef jerky for me. Do you want to eat it? If you want to eat it, I will send it to you?¡± Chen Lulu quickly changed the subject.


    ¡°Really? Good!¡± Ye Kehuan especially liked the small snacks made by Chen Lulu¡¯s mother.


    ¡°That¡¯s it! It¡¯s too late, I¡¯m so sleepy, good night!¡± Chen Lulu finished speaking and hung up the voice chat without saying another word. The screen showed that the voice call had ended.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the screen and sighed. After putting her phone aside, she picked up the script and flipped.


    The next day she was going to film some scenes in which Su He clashed with Song Yu, who played a female villain. Probably because Su He had offended Song Yu by speaking before, Song Yu saw that Su He was unhappy, so she deliberately punished her, and at the same time, Mo Jiaojiao from the same cast also added fuel to the fire.


    In addition, at some time Su He followed Qi Luo to a place where Qi Luo remembered that she had been before her death, and went there to find clues.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t concentrate on reading it, but felt that her brain was swollen, so she had to put down the script and go to the bathroom to wash her face.


    Chen Lulu¡¯s words were indeed completely consistent with her, without any deviation, was she really in a ditch?


    Once again, Ye Kehuan pressed her hand to her heart. Really? How is it possible? No matter how much I think, it is still too absurd. What is this possessiveness at the root of it?


    At that moment, in the next room.


    After taking care of her skin, Jiang Laien sat on her bed, remembering Ye Kehuan¡¯s reaction when she heard that she was going to have a blind date on the road before, and put her chin on her knee thoughtfully.


    Actually, she didn¡¯t plan to go on a blind date. She wanted to ask Ye Kehuan that way, just to see what Ye Kehuan¡¯s reaction would be if she knew she was going to have a blind date. Would she be called to not go?


    Sometimes, she felt that Ye Kehuan wanted pure friendship with her, but sometimes she felt that Ye Kehuan should like her a little bit, which was really unpredictable.


    Just when Jiang Laien thought about that, a text message suddenly entered her mobile phone, which was sent by Lu An, saying that she had helped her get a limited edition bag of a certain brand.


    After thanking her, Jiang Laien sent a message: ¡°An¡¯an, are you rushing to design now?¡±


    Lu An replied in a second: ¡°No, I¡¯m applying a mask, what¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Jiang Laien felt that she was not far from going bald and could no longer worry about it alone: ¡°Did I tell you before that I always had a crush on someone, but later, I lost her, and this year I have met her again when I got back?¡±


    Lu An: ¡°Well, what then?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her phone screen and fiddled with her hair: ¡°I was still a little unwilling to just be friends with her, so I used various tricks to test the possibility of her bending¡­¡±


    Lu An: ¡°How effective is it?¡±


    Jiang Laien lay on her bed, staring at the light on the ceiling, and silently replied: ¡°Sometimes I think she should not be straight, but sometimes, I think she is straight.¡±


    Lu An: ¡°When do you think she is curved and when do you think she is straight?¡±


    Jiang Laien thought for a while: ¡°Every time I seduce her, her eyes flickered a bit awkwardly. At that time, I felt that she was bent. But sometimes from the details of our chats, I feel that she was completely straight.¡±


    Lu An: ¡°Huh?¡±


    Jiang Laien sighed: ¡°For example, her thinking is still stuck in the idea that if I want to get married, I must be married to a man. Also, I said that a friend would like to introduce me to someone and asked her if I should see them. She didn¡¯t say not to go, but just told me to pay attention to my safety. Doesn¡¯t that mean that I should go, as long as I choose carefully? In other words, she doesn¡¯t want me.¡±


    Lu An: ¡°I don¡¯t think so.¡±


    ¡°Not necessarily?¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly.


    Lu An: ¡°Yeah, those of you who fall in love are so easy to get into your imaginary thorns. You think she doesn¡¯t like you, and she thinks you don¡¯t like her, and then it doesn¡¯t matter if you pretend to be indifferent. I¡¯ve really seen this situation too much.¡±


    Jiang Laien thought about it, and the corners of her lips rose again: ¡°That makes sense. Let¡¯s not talk about it, I¡¯m asleep.¡±


    ¡°OK. Good night~¡±


    Putting down her phone, Jiang Laien pulled up the quilt.


    The next day.


    Ye Kehuan woke up from a nightmare. When she woke up, her body was covered in sweat.


    She dreamed that Jiang Laien was going on a blind date, and the other party was a little milk dog, and he coaxed Jiang Laien into a relationship with just a few words. Not long after the blind date, the screen switched, and the little milk dog appeared in a church during the wedding march, holding Jiang Laien¡¯s arm. When the screen switched again, Jiang Laien gave birth to her first child, a harmonious family of three was born.


    In her dream, she tried to ask Jiang Laien out to play, but Jiang Laien said indifferently: ¡°Who are you?¡±


    Those three words were like a dagger, piercing Ye Kehuan¡¯s heart quickly and ruthlessly, making Ye Kehuan¡¯s tears fall like rain in her dream, spending the rest of her life with wine.


    Ye Kehuan swore that that dream was the most terrifying dream she had ever had in her little half of her life, and she still had lingering fears after waking up for a long time. Jiang Laien, she won¡¯t really go on a blind date or something, right?


    After tidying the room and herself up, Ye Kehuan just arrived on the site and saw that Jiang Laien was already filming.


    Ye Kehuan walked to the dressing room, and at the same time looked at Jiang Laien, but stepped on a prop and almost fell in dog shit.


    ¡°Sister Kehuan!¡± An assistant immediately went to help her with Chao Mingqing.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Ye Kehuan stood still, put her hands in her pockets, and continued walking into the dressing room like there was no one else.


    ¡°Is Kehuan coming?!¡± The makeup artist smiled and asked after seeing Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan walked to the dressing table and sat down.


    ¡°Why do you look so disheartened today?¡± The makeup artist walked over with a comb and scratched her hair.


    ¡°No idea, maybe it was because last night was so good I didn¡¯t want to sleep.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily.


    The makeup artist laughed after listening, and then began to style her.


    At that time, Jiang Laien walked in after her filming.


    ¡°Morning!¡± Ye Kehuan greeted immediately.


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°Morning.¡±


    After saying hello, Jiang Laien sat down beside Ye Kehuan and raised her face slightly so that the makeup artist could touch up her makeup.


    Ye Kehuan was still uneasy, and her eyes kept moving to the corners to look at her. She couldn¡¯t stop thinking about whether she was really going to go on a blind date.


    Fortunately, even though Ye Kehuan was still in a poor condition that day, her performance was still beautifully completed, and the scene where Su He and Song Yu fell out was quite tense. That probably had nothing to do with her personal experience in similar incidents.


    Seeing her performing so well, Cheng Yan, who had been expecting her to be bad, could be said to be even more angry.


    Yes, unknowingly, Ye Kehuan became the darling of the whole crew without knowing. Everyone loved to play and chat with her, but she became more and more forgotten. Jealousy was maddening, and Cheng Yan would feel depressed and breathless as soon as she reported the crew every day.


    After that, the director started filming the last place that Qi Luo took Su He to go to.


    It was written in the script that Qi Luo¡¯s body was found in a tunnel, but in fact it was not where she died. She was just thrown there. The real place of her death had not been found. Therefore, there was also a lot of evidence that hadn¡¯t been collected.


    Time kicked and stomped, and with the sound of the director¡¯s ¡°Action¡±, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked into an old and dilapidated street, and got into a neighborhood that seemed to be very old and lacking in repairs. She found a basement in a dark room, and found some small bottles and some calligraphy and paintings that were connected to cults in the drawers in the basement.


    The whole shooting process went smoothly, and nothing went wrong. The work ended very quickly, and it ended at 7 o¡¯clock in the evening.


    It was hard to pack up so early in the day. After removing their makeup and changing clothes, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were going to eat at a well-known restaurant recommended by the makeup artist. She heard that the soup served there was delicious, not just good. Anyone who drank the soup would fall in love.


    The cold wind on the road was still pervasive, blowing away people¡¯s bones and happiness, and the traffic of Chongyuan City under the light was very prosperous.


    Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Laien¡¯s ears were plugged up and couldn¡¯t help asking: ¡°Listening to a song?¡±


    ¡°Well, Liutong¡¯s new song.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, pulled out a headphone and handed it to her, ¡°Would you like to listen together?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at the little earphone in her fingers, nodded, took it and put it in her ear.


    In the earphone, a faint female voice sang: ¡°Unfortunately you don¡¯t understand that I was drunk for you, but unfortunately you think I am just obsessed with alcohol. I just want to be a simple and happy couple with you¡­¡±


    The tone was faint, with a trace of a sad mood, and at the same time, some complicated thoughts of Ye Kehuan¡¯s were inexplicably drawn up.


    At the end of the song, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, and wanted to ask her if she really wanted to go on a blind date, but she couldn¡¯t ask, so she could only give up in the end.


    Arriving at the restaurant, they sat down in a private room, and the two ordered a pot of duck soup and some added side dishes. As soon as the waiter exited the room, Jiang Laien¡¯s cell phone rang.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t pay much attention, just swiping Weibo.


    Immediately, Jiang Laien picked up the call and put her phone to her ear:


    ¡°Hey?¡±


    ¡°Are you coming to Chongyuan City too?¡±


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll have a meal with you when I have time. What, he wants to come too?¡±


    ¡°Um¡­ See you then. Bye.¡±


    The content of the call was very simple. After Jiang Laien finished speaking, she hung up the phone.


    However, Ye Kehuan, who was originally on Weibo, suddenly had a bad premonition and looked up at her: ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Jiang Laien put her phone aside: ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you last night? My friend wants to introduce me to her boss. This time they are coming here on a business trip together, so they asked me if I wanted to meet.¡±


    ¡°So, you agreed?¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly fell into an unprecedented panic.


    Seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s reaction suddenly becoming so great, Jiang Laien¡¯s fingers trembled a little while holding her cup, and looked at her: ¡°What¡¯s the matter, do you think I shouldn¡¯t agree?¡±


    The author has something to say: Ye Kehuan: ¡°Can I still be rescued?!¡±


    I ran to the hospital yesterday. There were too many people after the holiday, and the queue was dead¡­ After I came back, all kinds of exhaustion was gone _(:3] <)_ forgive me~

 CH 33

    Facing her Jiang Laien problem, Ye Kehuan was thinking about what to do.


    In that moment, she had an epiphany.


    ¡°It¡¯s just that it¡¯s too hasty, do you understand? What if the other party is greasy and their beer belly is big and round, won¡¯t you vomit when you look at him?¡± Ye Kehuan stretched out her arm to make a round boss.


    ¡°I have seen the photos, that man has long arms and legs, and his face is delicate, and his clothes are thin and fleshy.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    ¡°Among the four major sorceries in Asia, there is one called Plastic Surgery. After a one-stop service, a face-life, big eyes, slimming arms and legs, anyone can grow like that.¡± Ye Kehuan waved her hand.


    ¡°That¡¯s why I want to meet, and not be tied to the photo.¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows.


    It makes sense! Ye Kehuan choked.


    ¡°I just think that you are only in your twenties, so what are you being so anxious for at a young age?¡± Ye Kehuan changed the entry point hesitantly.


    ¡°Is there any specific relationship between a blind date, marriage, and age?¡± Jiang Laien raised a question.


    Ye Kehuan held back for a while after listening: ¡°If you get married now, what about your career? Are you worthy of those fans that like you?¡± Ye Kehuan blushed and thickened her face.


    ¡°Is there a conflict between marriage and career?¡± Jiang Laien asked rhetorically.


    ¡°Of course there is. In case you meet some superb parents-in-law, they will make you have children after you get married. If one is not enough, they will make you have two. Then you won¡¯t be able to take pictures of yourself. Even if you like a script, you may have a hard time getting it, or why would people say that marriage is the grave of life?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s thinking and logic were quite sharp.


    At that time, the waiter pushed their dishes into the room, and respectfully put the dishes on the table one after another.


    Ye Kehuan had no choice but to stop the conversation, her eyes following the waiter¡¯s hand, and fixing on Jiang Laien from time to time, uncomfortable.


    After the waiter left, Jiang Laien prepared a bowl of soup for herself and stirred it with a spoon: ¡°I am not a fool to worry about this and that. If I meet such a bad person, I can just break up without getting married. After all, I would have to do all that before getting married, like seeing their parents. It¡¯s better to know them from the source. But maybe I can meet someone who is particularly good and his family is also very good. I have always had good luck.¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t what I said still reasonable, in case you encounter something like that, won¡¯t you be badly injured?¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that the dishes on the table didn¡¯t look good anymore. ¡°As a friend, I am doing this for you. For your sake.¡±


    ¡°Then, as a friend, shouldn¡¯t you encourage me more?¡± Jiang Laien took a sip of soup.


    ¡°I, I didn¡¯t curse you for looking to embarrassment,¡± Ye Kehuan almost squeezed the chopsticks she had just picked up, ¡°I just think when it comes to this kind of thing you need to be prudent and prudent.¡±


    ¡°Of course I know this. It doesn¡¯t need to be emphasized, but people can¡¯t stop going out because there are murderers in the world.¡± Jiang Laien ended the topic.


    Ye Kehuan was speechless while playing with her cup. After thinking for a long time, she said again: ¡°Then go, it¡¯s okay, I¡­¡±


    ¡°How are you?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll go too!¡± Ye Kehuan slapped the table.


    There was a puzzled expression on Jiang Laien¡¯s face.


    ¡°I¡¯m not going to grab a man from you, I¡¯m not interested in that kind of animal. I¡¯ll check it out for you! I¡¯ve been in love, I have experience, I can see through men!¡± Ye Kehuan completely forgot about herself. That love affair of hers was just like playing house, it was not worthy of being talked about at all.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t understand Ye Kehuan at all. Was she really just worried about what bad man she might meet?


    Folding her brows and stretching again, Jiang Laien suddenly wanted to see what she was going to do: ¡°Since you are so worried, then you can accompany me on the blind date and check it out for me.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll be happy to say,¡± Ye Kehuan raised the bowl of soup in front of her, ¡°Cheers!¡±


    After looking at her with a foolish gaze, Jiang Laien put down her chopsticks in a daze, picked up her soup bowl, and touched theirs.


    Ye Kehuan drank the soup, put down the bowl, wiped her lips with a napkin, and then looked at her: ¡°When is it?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure yet. I¡¯ll tell you when I know.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice and expression made it impossible for people to see what emotions they contained.


    ¡°Good.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    In the end, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t have the courage to say ¡°Don¡¯t go¡± directly. Because she really didn¡¯t know what right she had to say those words.


    After returning to the residence, Ye Kehuan fell onto her bed and reached out and roughed up her hair twice.


    What the hell? It turns out that Jiang Laien not only decided to go on a blind date, but she also wanted to go on that blind date a lot.


    After venting, Ye Kehuan lay flat on her bed and put her hands on her chest, feeling that she was about to die.


    No, she had to stop it all, and could not let Jiang Laien just marry and have children¡­


    With a sigh, Ye Kehuan pulled out the script again.


    Two days after the next morning, Su He told Lu Xun (Zhang Haotian) about Qi Luo. At first, Lu Xun thought that Su He was joking. Only the police knew that Su He had said something about Qi Luo. Things slowly developed.


    And so, they also started a series of investigations with them on the things they found in that old community house.


    She had to say that Chen Fei¡¯s script was really well written, and Ye Kehuan had read it several times, whether it was related to her or not.


    In the blind of an eye, half a month passed since the filming started. Since the people who participated in the film were some very dedicated big names, their shooting schedules were also very reasonable, and the schedule was very busy, so the filming progress was very good. It seemed that work would be done around mid-February the next year.


    On December 31st, another snow fell on Chongyuan City. Although the snow was not strong, it was still so cold that people stomped their feet.


    In the crew, warm stickers and hand warmers had been flying all over. Even so, they still couldn¡¯t contain the erosion of the cold.


    Although filming in winter was very torturous, the good thing was that Ye Kehuan found that her acting skills were growing by leaps and bounds. However, she had such an excellent director and guidance, and there were so many excellent actors and actresses who played around her. If she didn¡¯t grow up, she would be a waste.


    At present, the movie had captured the bizarre death of Song Yu, a popular actress from the same cast who once disagreed with Su He. After Song Yu¡¯s death, everyone in the same cast went to cooperate with the police to make a transcript.


    After Ye Kehuan finished filming the part with the transcript, she had nothing to do with her day.


    However, today was that day, so she still had things to do.


    The date of Jiang Laien¡¯s blind date! As soon as she thought of that, Ye Kehuan started to get upset again.


    After returning to her residence with Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan changed into a new warming patch and then knocked on Jiang Laien¡¯s door.


    As soon as the door opened, Ye Kehuan discovered that Jiang Laien had redone her sweet makeup, and was applying lipstick in the mirror.


    ¡°Why put on makeup again?¡± Ye Kehuan walked over.


    Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at her for a while: ¡°Aren¡¯t blind dates supposed to be more careful?¡±


    Suddenly, Ye Kehuan¡¯s brain was struck by lightning: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Jiang Laien stood up, leaned to her ear, and asked softly: ¡°Then what do you think about my makeup? Does it look good? Would men like it?¡±


    More than just good-looking, she was a fairy descended to the world. Her eye makeup made her look like a small deer, innocent and lovely, and her lips were so moist and shiny that she seemed to want to embrace her waist and kiss her brutally.


    After thinking up a big lie, Ye Kehuan swallowed and waved her hand hurriedly: ¡°I don¡¯t think it will work.¡±


    ¡°Why?¡± Jiang Laien frowned.


    ¡°Blind dates or something¡­ Think, what if he superficially fell in love with your face, and then appeared very polite, hiding his dark side completely, wouldn¡¯t you lose sight of his essence?¡± Ye Kehuan smiled.


    ¡°I¡¯m a star, he already knows what I look like, right?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°Yeah, but that¡¯s you on the big screen. What he wants to see is you under the big screen. So we can create an ugly, badly dressed, and tanned under the big screen to meet him. If he sees you so ugly and is still such a gentleman, then it means that the other person is still okay. If he sees the ugly you and feels disillusioned and his face sinks, it means that this person is not good.¡± Ye Kehuan had a logical score.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°...So, what kind of makeup should I put on?¡±


    Ye Kehuan glanced at the cosmetics on her dressing table and picked up a brush: ¡°I¡¯ll make it for you.¡±


    ¡°All right.¡± Jiang Laien looked at her suspiciously, really wondering if Ye Kehuan was really doing her best to help her blind date.


    Within a few minutes, Ye Kehuan removed Jiang Laien¡¯s makeup and began to apply it again. This time, she didn¡¯t apply foundation or cream.


    Ye Kehuan used a brown eyeliner pen to spot some freckles on Jiang Laien¡¯s face, and then swept out a plateau-red blush on both sides of her cheeks, and then took out a **** lipstick and applied it to Jiang Laien¡¯s lips, using a bit to apply a corn whisker on her.


    After some creation, Ye Kehuan nodded in satisfaction: ¡°I think this should be fine.¡±


    After Jiang Laien was transformed by Ye Kehuan, she almost had a myocardial infarction as soon as she looked in the mirror. She really never thought that she could be so ugly.


    It¡¯s really¡­ Unique, and quite unique¡­


    Immediately afterwards, Ye Kehuan quickly created a set of clothes similar to that for Jiang Laien. The two put on down jackets, masks, and hats, and set off for the blind date together.


    ¡°By the way, in order to verify whether he is machismo, we still have to do a few things. If he asks if you can cook, you say no; if he asks if you like doing housework, just say you don¡¯t like it; if he asks how many children you want, you just say that you don¡¯t want any.¡± On the way, Ye Kehuan added.


    ¡°If he can¡¯t accept it, he doesn¡¯t have to think about me anymore?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her sideways.


    If all blind dates were like what she thinks, they would be pornographic, right?


    At 7:30 in the evening, the two finally arrived at the blind date--the second floor box of the ¡°Sega¡± restaurant.


    She saw that Jiang Laien¡¯s blind date was really sitting there. She had to say that when she saw him, Ye Kehuan felt nervous for a moment, and couldn¡¯t help but set aside her abacus to calculate her chances of winning.


    Because the other party looked exactly the same as Jiang Laien described, with a delicate appearance, and a lean body--a tall man with a suit and leather shoes.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien pulled off their hats and masks, they both revealed explosive Chow-Chow faces, with freckles and plateau-red cheeks.


    But the man on the opposite side still smiled at that, not only did he not show the slightest surprise, but also smiled and asked: ¡°It¡¯s cold outside, isn¡¯t it? Would you like to order two hot drinks first?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll just drink this lemonade.¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at the bottle of lemonade on the table and said lightly.


    ¡°Me too.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    ¡°Well, good. Let me introduce myself first. By next week, this Zhou will be Men Jizhou, completely surpassing him.¡± Zhou Yue laughed. 1


    ¡°Hell, this is Jiang Laien.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°Hello, Ye Kehuan.¡± Ye Kehuan almost glared a hole through him.


    ¡°Miss Jiang, did you just come over from the crew? Filming is very hard, right?¡± Zhou Yue smiled slightly and asked.


    ¡°No.¡± Jiang Laien shook her head and smiled.


    ¡°Ah,¡± Zhou Yue smiled softly again, looking a little gay. ¡°I thought you came from the crew with your look.¡±


    ¡°No, this is what we really look like.¡± Ye Kehuan seized the opportunity and said. ¡°In fact, Laien and I are just like this without makeup, and we were born with explosive heads. I wanted to take care of it today, but time was short, so please forgive us for coming directly like this.¡±


    He shouldn¡¯t be able to accept it now! After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, a smile appeared on the corners of her lips.


    However, Zhou Yue looked at Jiang Laien with a smile and said, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter; I think it¡¯s unusual and cute.¡±


    At that moment, there was a loud bang in Ye Kehuan¡¯s head, and the smile on the corners of her lips gradually solidified.


    The author has something to say: Ye Kehuan: (¨s¨F¡õ¡ä)¨s¦à©ß©¥©ß


    TL/N


    1 - There¡¯s no way I can translate this. I barely even know what it means. Basically, he¡¯s making a joke using surpass (Yue [Ô½]) and saying that he overcomes himself every week (Zhou [ÖÜ]). I think.

 CH 34

    ¡°Thank you for the compliment.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded. So the content of all those novels were true? Compared with Bai Fumei (Beautiful, Rich, White Girls), Gao Fushuai (Rich, Handsome, Powerful Men) preferred ugly ducklings? 1


    ¡°Mr. Zhou¡¯s aesthetic is really different from ordinary people.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips twitched slightly.


    Zhou Yue smiled again, shook his head, and continued politely: ¡°I just have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering beauty. Different girls have different beauty.¡±


    ¡°Mr. Zhou is quite good at talking.¡± Jiang Laien smiled again.


    ¡°Hehe,¡± Zhou Yue smiled, and handed the menu to them, ¡°Miss Jiang, Miss Ye, let¡¯s see what you want to eat.¡±


    It could be said that between Zhou Yue¡¯s words and actions, his every move was very gentlemanly, and it was really hard to fault. Ye Kehuan held her breath in her chest once more, uncomfortably tightly, but it was not easy to attack, and she had to accompany with a smile to pretend to be very interested in ordering food. For a second, she really felt that she had been honing her acting skills in the past month a little too well.


    After ordering the food, Ye Kehuan looked at Zhou Yue, who was sitting opposite, feeling he was dazzling no matter how she looked at him.


    After a while, the dishes were ready. After seeing the waiter leave, Zhou Yue turned his head and said with a small smile: ¡°It¡¯s really hard to filter out the noise. I originally thought that Miss Jiang, as a famous movie star, would be more difficult in private. Having met you, I find that you¡¯re very grounded, and don¡¯t hold people at arm¡¯s reach.¡±


    ¡°Thank you. Acting is just a job. Actors are also ordinary people in private.¡± Jiang Laien shook her head slightly.


    Grounded?


    Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien, then at Zhou Yue, and finally frowned at the table. Now she was really green with regret about making Jiang Laien into a girl with explosive freckles. 2


    At that time, Zhou Yue said again: ¡°Miss Jiang is destined to be extraordinary if she can say such things.¡±


    Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows slightly: ¡°I often hear my friends talking about you, saying that you don¡¯t say that you are from a well-known family, and that you have a good face and talk very well. I have seen it today, sure enough.¡±


    Zhou Yue smiled slightly: ¡°Then, does Miss Jiang like me like this?¡±


    Ye Kehuan, who was sitting next to Jiang Laien, suddenly couldn¡¯t sit still. What¡¯s this situation?! I thought the opponent was a rook, but he turned out to be a king? Have you flirted with love so soon?


    Suddenly, Ye Kehuan hurriedly spoke before Jiang Laien: ¡°Mr. Zhou Yue is good at this, and his little mouth is filled with honey. It shouldn¡¯t be possible to spew this sultry kung fu without thousands of trials, right?¡±


    When Zhou Yue heard those words, he smiled slightly, raised his hand and shook it slightly: ¡°No, Miss Ye is worried. However, since it is a blind date, you must pay attention to whatever is before your eyes. I just asked, I meant nothing offensive by it.¡±


    Worthy of being the king. However, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t intend to be trampled on the ground just like that.


    Ye Kehuan looked at him for a long while, smiled, and nodded: ¡°Since it is a blind date for the purpose of getting buried, you must pay attention to whether your three views are the same. Or, after the conversation, you might find the difference is too great. Quite tired? Well, you two might as well ask each other some questions that are of more interest to you, such as whether you smoke or drink or drink. Do you like cooking, or whether you want children or something.¡±


    Jiang Laien tilted her head and glanced at Ye Kehuan, and said in her heart: How come you know so much that you can ask about this?


    ¡°Yes,¡± Zhou Yue nodded, pondered for a moment, and looked at Jiang Laien, ¡°Madam first. If you have anything to ask Miss Jiang, then ask.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien said, ¡°Does Mr. Zhou usually smoke and drink?¡±


    Zhou Yue stared at the glass of alcohol on the table: ¡°I don¡¯t smoke, and I only drink a little alcohol when socializing.¡±


    ¡°Then, if we get married and your parents want to live with us after marriage, how would you respond?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    Ye Kehuan said in her heart: Good question! I used to see this problem in the posts of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law war when I was younger and mixed in the forums.


    ¡°Miss Jiang, you don¡¯t need to worry about this matter,¡± Zhou Yue¡¯s lips curled slightly, ¡°They are all very busy, and they are all very independent. I live by myself now, and they won¡¯t follow.¡±


    ¡°Can you accept AA marriage?¡± 3


    This question is also beautiful! Ye Kehuan knew that although AA marriages were no longer uncommon in foreign countries, there would still be many people in China who would not accept them and felt that that kind of husband and wife relationship was too unfamiliar.


    Zhou Yue listened and said with a smile: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded.


    Ye Kehuan froze.


    ¡°Miss Jiang, do you have anything else to ask?¡± Zhou Yue saw that Jiang Laien stopped talking, so he spoke.


    ¡°Nothing more,¡± Jiang Laien shook her head after slowing down, ¡°If you have anything you want to ask, just ask.¡±


    Zhou Yue smiled: Miss Jiang, you seem to like food on Weibo. Do you usually cook at home?¡±


    Jiang Laien shook her head, the corners of her lips curled slightly: ¡°I don¡¯t know how to cook. I just helped Kehuan in the show. Because it¡¯s too difficult, I don¡¯t plan to learn.¡±


    Zhou Yue listened, and suddenly smiled and lowered his head: ¡°Aha, interesting.¡±


    Interesting?


    Ye Kehuan was a little confused.


    Zhou Yue continued: ¡°You don¡¯t know, and you don¡¯t plan to learn. What a coincidence.¡±


    At that moment, a string of question marks floated on Ye Kehuan¡¯s forehead.


    ¡°Speaking of cooking,¡± Zhou Yue looked at Jiang Laien again, ¡°What about housework, does Miss Jiang like to do housework? Will everything be tidy and meticulous?¡±


    Jiang Laien pondered for a moment: ¡°I don¡¯t like it, no. I always look for a housekeeper.¡±


    After hearing that, Zhou Yue let out a sigh of relief: ¡°That¡¯s great.¡±


    Ye Kehuan fell further.


    ¡°My grandfather has an obsessive-compulsive disorder. The first thing I did every day was housework, and the last thing before going to bed was also housework. If I had even a single thing not neatly arranged, I would be called terrible.¡± Zhou Yue slowly told his hard history.


    Ye Kehuan got stuck.


    Then, Zhou Yue smiled and asked, ¡°Does Miss Jiang like children?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°I don¡¯t like them. So, I don¡¯t plan to give birth. I am from the DINK camp.¡±


    ¡°Ah,¡± Zhou Yue let out a sigh of relief, ¡°Miss Jiang, it seems that you are the person I am looking for?¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but utter.


    Zhou Yue stared at Jiang Laien, and his smiled became more obvious: ¡°I don¡¯t like children; I don¡¯t want any. Miss Jiang, do you think we are really destined?¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes went straight when she heard Zhou Yue¡¯s words. She really didn¡¯t expect that things would turn out like that, and in an instant, her heart became messy again


    Later, Zhou Yue spoke again: ¡°Miss Jiang, is it convenient to add my WeChat?¡±


    ¡°WeChat?¡± Jiang Laien aimed at Ye Kehuan from the corner of her eye.


    ¡°Miss Jiang, I don¡¯t mean to ask you agree to associate with me now. It¡¯s just that I think you¡¯re pretty good, so I want to know more about you so that I know what is appropriate. If you think I¡¯m good too, can you consider giving me your WeChat?¡± Zhou Yue continued.


    ¡°Sorry, I want to go to the bathroom first,¡± Jiang Laien smiled at Zhou Yue, then looked at Ye Kehuan, ¡°Do you want to go together?¡±


    Ye Kehuan recovered, looked at her, picked up her bag, and walked out of the private room with Jiang Laien.


    It may because the heating there was too good, but Ye Kehuan felt that it was a little hot. Jiang Laien walked in front of her, with an explosive head, like a little lion. Ye Kehuan looked at her back, raised her hand and stroked her eyebrows, trying to soothe the intricate emotions in her mind.


    After walking into the bathroom, Jiang Laien washed her hands in the sink and looked at Ye Kehuan sideways: ¡°Well, my good dear friend, do you think he is worthy?¡±


    Ye Kehuan stood by, suddenly petrified. She wanted to pick Zhou Yue¡¯s negatives, but found that she couldn¡¯t find any.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien washed her hands and took out a tissue to wipe them.


    ¡°He¡­ I don¡¯t think much of him.¡± Ye Kehuan hesitated.


    ¡°Why do you think so? There must be a reason.¡± Jiang Laien asked after breaking the packaging.


    ¡°It just feels inappropriate.¡± Ye Kehuan put her hand under her nose.


    Jiang Laien looked at her quietly, and after a long while, she threw the paper into the waste basket, and tentatively said: ¡°Hey, I almost think you like me.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly became stiff, and her mind became a mess.


    ¡°Why do you ask?¡± Because Ye Kehuan had nowhere to put her hands when she was nervous, she put her hands in her trouser pockets and looked at her sideways.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t dare meet her eyes, so she pretended to tidy up her hair in the mirror: ¡°Otherwise, why would you keep preventing me from going on a blind date? Even though that person is not bad, you still refused to let me try him. And he seems to like me.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan was stunned. After a long time, she grinned and said: ¡°No, why would I think so, how could I like you, I just¡­¡±


    Speaking like that, Ye Kehuan was stunned. Yeah¡­ What the **** was she doing? Why interfere with the emotional life of others? Everyone thinks the blind date is good. Moreover, that person is really good. As a friend, should she give her blessing?


    Ye Kehuan spoke again: ¡°I will not stop you. Since you think he is good, then, if you are willing to try with him, try with him. The choice is yours.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that sentence, her heart felt cold, and her breathing gradually became a little difficult. At the same time, it felt like someone had tied a huge stone to her foot and was holding her on the bottom of the sea.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Finally, Jiang Laien nodded.


    After Ye Kehuan heard the word ¡°okay¡±, her heart trembled again. Her whole mind was a confused mess at the time, and she didn¡¯t know what she was doing.


    After that, Jiang Laien pulled the strap of her bag and walked forward first.


    Ye Kehuan stood there and swallowed her saliva. Her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground. It took a long time before she took a step forward, her whole head hurting inexplicably.


    Back in the box, Ye Kehuan looked at the two people sitting in it, and saw that they had already started to eat.


    ¡°Miss Ye, are you back?¡± Zhou Yue looked up and smiled after seeing her back.


    Ye Kehuan nodded silently.


    ¡°I just decided to go to see the New Year¡¯s Day Special Flower Street in Chongyuan City with Miss Jiang and her friends and my subordinates. Will you go there too?¡± Zhou Yue asked.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien next to her, and then shook her head: ¡°I still have to go look at tomorrow¡¯s script, because there will be a lot of lines in the one tomorrow, so I won¡¯t go.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Zhou Yue nodded.


    ¡°Then I will go first.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Okay, pay attention to your safety on the road.¡± Zhou Yue smiled.


    Ye Kehuan nodded and looked at Jiang Laien who was still drinking soup, then turned around, walked out of the box, and closed the door.


    After leaving the restaurant, Ye Kehuan put on a mask and pulled up her hat to cover her head tightly.


    Since it was the last day of December and the next day was New Year¡¯s Day, the city at that time was very beautifully decorated. But Ye Kehuan was reluctant to appreciate it.


    This **** **** weather. I don¡¯t know why it¡¯s so cold. Ye Kehuan had never felt that she was so intolerant of freezing. She felt frozen--her whole body was trembling; her steps were fluttering; the world was hazy, and the lights became massive objects floating in the void.


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan¡¯s cell phone rang. It was Chen Lulu calling.


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she stopped slowly and answered her phone: ¡°Hello?¡±


    ¡°Kehuan! I am coming to Chongyuan City tomorrow? Are you surprised or surprised?!¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice sounded particularly excited.


    ¡°Um¡­¡± Ye Kehuan started into the distance, as if a puppet.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you?¡± Chen Lulu asked.


    ¡°It hurts¡­¡± Ye Kehuan narrowed her eyes. ¡°It hurts.¡±


    ¡°Hey? What¡¯s wrong? Where does it hurt, do you want to call 120?¡±


    ¡°Heart,¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand to her heart, ¡°it hurts.¡±


    TL/N


    1 - The term Bai Fumei comes up quite a few times in later chapters. As I put above, it basically means Beautiful, Rich, White Girls. Typically second-generation rich. However, it really breaks the flow to translate it in a lot of places because it''s a title, and therefore capitalized. I¡¯ll add a poll, asking if you¡¯d like it translated or just keep it as it is.


    2 - Turning green with jealousy. This is also a reference to ¡°getting a green hat¡±, which means having your lover stolen. If I remember correctly, the origin of this is that merchants would wear green hats, and while they were traveling, their wives would have an affair.


    3 - No clue. When English characters appear, it usually is for something made up, like calling something Z Hotel. Anyone have a clue?

 CH 35

    ¡°Heart, did you have a heart attack?¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice gradually became anxious.


    Ye Kehuan grabbed the clothes on her chest and squatted down. Her breathing became rapid. The noise of the surrounding vehicles and pedestrians was pulled far away in an instant, and she felt like she was in another world: ¡°No, it¡¯s just her going. During the blind date¡­ She fell in love with that person.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Chen Lulu was stunned. ¡°Jiang Laien?!¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan felt that she couldn¡¯t breathe fresh air, and her mind was a little dizzy. ¡°She, she likes that man very much.¡±


    ¡°Hey, you¡­¡± Chen Lulu muttered, ¡°I also advised you. I didn¡¯t like anyone until I was 25 years old. I matured late enough, and it¡¯s like this: It¡¯s better to be first¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid of being rejected after speaking out, and friends shouldn¡¯t¡­¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and her breathing became more and more rapid.


    ¡°Hey. Being rejected is uncomfortable, but it doesn¡¯t necessarily mean it¡¯s over forever. No, Kehuan, your panting¡­ What¡¯s the matter with you?¡± Chen Lulu began to panic.


    Ye Kehuan felt that she was unable to hold her phone firmly: ¡°Dizzy, breathing, so hard¡­¡±


    ¡°Well, it should just be your breathing. Cover your mouth and your nose, breathe slowly, and don¡¯t do anything else, just take a rest! Do what I say, do you hear?!¡± Chen Lulu was quite anxious.


    After listening to Chen Lulu¡¯s words, Ye Kehuan tremblingly covered her nose and mouth with her hands, and did what she said. After a while, she finally felt that her breathing became much more normal, but she felt exhausted, and the joints all over her body felt as though they had been dismantled and reorganized.


    ¡°Is it better?¡± Chen Lulu asked after hearing Ye Kehuan¡¯s silence.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s so noisy around you, are you outside? Go home!¡± Chen Lulu sighed.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan stood up, only feeling that her jaw was very stiff and sore.


    ¡°Oh, I¡¯m worried to death. You are about to have an accident. Where could I go to cry? Don¡¯t hang up, let me wait for you to get back safely.¡± Chen Lulu was like her mother.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± After Ye Kehuan mechanically walked to the side of a KFC, she stretched out her hand to stop a rental car, her body swaying like an empty shell with no soul.


    After she stopped the taxi and got in, Ye Kehuan reported the address, then turned her head and looked outside motionlessly.


    ¡°Sitting in a car?¡± Chen Lulu asked.


    ¡°Well,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded and held her bag tighter, ¡°It turns out, is this just liking someone? It turns out that it¡¯s so uncomfortable to like someone?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s uncomfortable because you didn¡¯t get her. If you got her, it wouldn¡¯t be so uncomfortable.¡± Chen Lulu breathed a sigh of relief. ¡°Sister, hold on, don¡¯t do stupid things, I¡¯ll be there tomorrow. If you want to cry or drink, I will accompany you!¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, letting out a sigh of relief in her heart.


    In the box.


    After Ye Kehuan left, Jiang Laien¡¯s soup drinking stopped.


    Zhou Yue put down his chopsticks and was about to say something, but found that Jiang Laien seemed distracted, so he whispered: ¡°Miss Jiang?¡±


    Seeing Jiang Laien still staring at the soup bowl and not speaking, Zhou Yue said louder: ¡°Miss Jiang?¡±


    Jiang Laien woke up from her reverie, and her fingers holding the spoon were slightly stiff: ¡°Huh?¡±


    Zhou Yue smiled: ¡°It looks like you are wandering, is there something on your mind?¡±


    Jiang Laien lowered her eyes, shook her head, took a piece of greens, put it in her mouth, took a bite, and chewed gently.


    ¡°Miss Jiang is in conflict with Miss Ye?¡± Zhou Yue asked tentatively. After all, after they came back from the bathroom, they became a little strange.


    When Zhou Yue asked, Jiang Laien¡¯s nose suddenly felt sour. She pressed her lips tightly to control her emotions, but her hands still couldn¡¯t help but tremble. Afterwards, Jiang Laien put down her chopsticks, frowned, and took out a piece of paper to cover her nose: ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m the one who lost my mind.¡±


    Zhou Yue was stunned: ¡°You¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien opened her mouth and took a breath, then raised her head and looked at the ceiling, trying to hold back her tears, but they still rolled down unceremoniously.


    Zhou Yue stood up instantly and walked towards her: ¡°Are you okay?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯m okay¡­¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and swayed, stood up with her bag, and put on a mask, ¡°Let¡¯s go. Ah Fen is already on Feature Street,, don¡¯t let her wait too long.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Zhou Yue nodded after hearing Ah Fen¡¯s name.


    When Zhou Yue went downstairs, after Jiang Laien got into the car, he got into the driver¡¯s seat and drove towards the characteristic street.


    On the way, Jiang Laien¡¯s nose sniffing sounded in his ears, but Zhou Yue didn¡¯t know what to do, so he turned on soothing music, hoping to calm her down.


    He didn¡¯t know how long it took before Jiang Laien finally stopped crying, leaning her body softly, staring at the street in front of her quietly, without speaking.


    After arriving at Feature Street, Zhou Yue stopped the car and walked to her side, opened the door for her, and politely reached out and made a request: ¡°Miss Jiang, we are here.¡±


    Jiang Laien returned to her senses and nodded: ¡°Okay, thank you.¡±


    ¡°Laien!¡± At that moment, a sweet voice came.


    Jiang Laien and Zhou Yue turned around together, and saw a baby-faced girl wearing a croissant khaki coat with a pear flower head with bangs standing there while gnawing on a pie, waving at them.


    ¡°Ah Fen, it¡¯s been a long time.¡± Jiang Laien reluctantly curled her lips.


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s been a long time¡­ Hey, why are you like this? OMG, why are you sporting such a face, wow, what kind of makeup is this, are you serious?¡± Ah Fen trotted over and looked at her N times, dumbfounded. She covered her mouth with her hand.


    ¡°My friend¡¯s idea was to test and see if Mister Zhou could accept me like this.¡± Jiang Laien said, her nose still very sour.


    ¡°What? I told you, our President Big Zhou is not a man who will only look at your face! Can I still recommend him to you if I didn''t know this?¡± Ah Fen looked at Zhou Yue with a pretty face. She turned an old mother¡¯s smile towards Jiang Laien: ¡°Well, were you charmed by our handsome Mr. Zhou? Are you holding hands?!¡± 1


    Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at Zhou Yue, after thinking for a moment, she said: ¡°Mister Zhou is indeed excellent, but¡­¡±


    ¡°But I¡¯m not the type that Miss Jiang likes.¡± Zhou Yue quickly answered for Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien was taken aback, looking at him a little surprised. How did he see it? However, Jiang Laien nodded in relief.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go, it¡¯s so beautiful here, let¡¯s take a stroll together.¡± Zhou Yue put his hands behind him, looked around, and smiled brightly.


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Ah Fen stood still and couldn¡¯t understand.


    Seeing that the two seemed to be very compatible with each other, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, how could it not work?!


    ¡°Hey, 155, what are you doing just standing there?¡± Zhou Yue walked a few steps, and found that Ah Fen hadn¡¯t followed, and looked sideways at her again.


    ¡°You¡¯re only 155!¡± Ah Fen strode forward bitterly, stood next to him, and glared at him like an angry bird.


    ¡°Sister Fen, your conscience won¡¯t hurt?¡± Zhou Yue smiled, raised his fingers to point to his heart, bent down to look at her face, and raised his eyebrows at her, smiling like a spring breeze.


    ¡°I have no conscience, hum!¡± Ah Fen turned her head to the left.


    Jiang Laien looked at them sideways: ¡°You seem pretty casual with your subordinates.¡±


    Zhou Yue always paid attention to speaking in front of others. Although he looked polite and gentle, he always wore a mask. But when he was with Ah Fen, he would take it off. If their relationship wasn¡¯t particularly good, it wouldn¡¯t be like that.


    Ah Fen listened and smiled: ¡°You forgot, I told you last time, I played with him since childhood, he was my buddy, and I kept with him for all of elementary school!¡±


    ¡°Yes, my brain is not too good these days.¡± Jiang Laien looked at Zhou Yue again, and only felt that Zhou Yue looked at Ah Fen with something wrong in his eyes, but Ah en only knew how to eat the pie in her hands.


    The three of them walked all the way, chatting, eating, and drinking, and they walked through the large area without knowing it. At the same time, it was midnight before they knew it. In an instant, the light show in Chongyuan City lit up, and the light beams of various colors were intertwined and swaying, embellishing the city extremely beautifully.


    ¡°Little Comrade Zhou Yue, take this for the family we love!¡± Upon seeing this, Ah Fen stuffed her milk tea into Zhou Yue¡¯s hand, immediately took out her mobile phone, pointed it at the colorful patch of colors and snapped pictures wildly.


    ¡°Yes, Sister Fen.¡± Zhou Yue looked at the milk tea in his hand and looked at the back of Ah Fen, his lips slightly pulled up, but his expression was slightly lonely.


    Sure enough, everyone has a story for themselves, Jiang Laien thought to herself.


    When Zhou Yue came on the blind date, he should have had a similar psychology to herself: to test whether the person he liked was really indifferent to seeing him and the blind date together.


    It was just that Zhou Yue seemed to be a bit more miserable than her. The person he liked arranged the blind date. Besides, Ah Fen seemed to be really apathetic to him. When she saw Jiang Laien with Zhou Yue, she was still curious. They did not succeed in holding hands.


    Jiang Laien suddenly understood why everyone liked to watch sweet dramas and read sweet novels, because in reality, things like ¡°I like you and you happen to like me¡± were really too few, and most of them were compromised.


    After watching the light show, Jiang Laien returned to the homestay, stood at her door, took out the room card from her bag, and prepared to open her door, then turned her head slightly and looked at the room where Ye Kehuan stayed.


    Finally, Jiang Laien turned her head, opened her mouth and let out a sigh, raised her hand to press her eyelids shut, opened her door with a red nose, and walked in. She closed it again, threw her bag aside, took off her jacket, put on her pajamas and walked quickly into the bathroom.


    4:30 in the morning the next day.


    Ye Kehuan, who had been suffering from insomnia all night, just fell asleep when her phone alarm rang, and her body trembled suddenly. Ye Kehuan opened her eyes, looked at the time above, closed her eyes again, raised her hand and rubbed her temples.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan got up, walked into the bathroom, and was about to brush her teeth when she was startled by herself in the mirror. She never knew that she could be so haggard. The redness in her eyes was a bit obvious, and her skin was pale.


    After washing up quickly and putting on her coat, Ye Kehuan went out and walked to Jiang Laien¡¯s door. Finally, she reached out and tapped a few times.


    However, no one responded to her. Eyelashes drooping, Ye Kehuan slowly retracted her hand.


    Ye Kehuan raised her head, paced back and forth, sniffled, blind, and quickly walked downstairs, and went to the studio with her assistant.


    The assistant was a little weird when she saw her. She wanted to ask but couldn¡¯t, just sighing.


    After arriving on the set, Ye Kehuan hadn¡¯t spoken yet, and a smoky ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day¡± greeting came at her. Ye Kehuan could only pull the corners of her mouth and nod.


    When she walked into the dressing room, she saw that Jiang Laien was already sitting there putting on makeup, and she was still talking and laughing freely, like usual.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her from a distance, furrowing her eyebrows, and for a moment, she felt short of breath.


    ¡°Kehuan is here?!¡± Just when Ye Kehuan was distracted, the makeup artist broke Ye Kehuan¡¯s claustrophobic world, and everyone looked towards her.


    Jiang Laien also glanced at her, but did not speak.


    So Ye Kehuan squeezed the strap of her bag and nodded to the makeup artist: ¡°Well, yes¡­¡±


    ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day!¡±


    ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, walked inside, and sat down beside Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Are you not feeling well today?¡± The makeup artist tilted his head and looked at her.


    ¡°I was up too late to watch the party last night, so I didn¡¯t sleep much.¡± Ye Kehuan did turn on the TV, but she didn¡¯t watch it at all.


    ¡°So that¡¯s it, did it look good? Which station?¡± The makeup artist smiled, rolling up his sleeves and getting ready to work.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned: ¡°It¡¯s okay, just from Chongyuan Station.¡±


    ¡°Looking at the photos of the light show posted by Laien¡¯s circle of friends, I thought it was you who went to see the light show with Laien. It didn¡¯t turn out?¡± The makeup artist smiled


    ¡°No.¡± Ye Kehuan felt like someone was pinching her throat. Zhou Yue¡¯s face kept floating in her mind, and she was completely unable to dispel it.


    ¡°Oh, come, raise your chin a bit~¡± The makeup artist still didn¡¯t notice anything unusual.


    Listening to their conversation, Jiang Laien next to them also felt a weight over her heart, unable to dissipate, and then continued to ponder the script.


    After a while, the makeup was finally done. The makeup artists were busy with others. Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked out of the dressing room together, preparing to shoot their first scene of the day.


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, hesitated for a moment, and finally took the initiative to say: ¡°What time did you come back last night?¡±


    ¡°After midnight.¡± Jiang Laien replied concisely.


    Ye Kehuan gulped, ¡°Did you go to see the light show with Zhou Yue?¡±


    Jiang Laien stared straight ahead: ¡°Otherwise?¡±


    Ye Kehuan choked: ¡°Then, did he send you back?¡±


    Jiang Laien still stared ahead: ¡°Otherwise?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan pursed her lips and nodded, the bridge of her nose a bit sour: ¡°No, nothing, I just want to say¡­¡±


    --I like you.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan stopped her feet, sweat dripping out of her palms.


    TL/N


    1 - This is not literal. It a reference to a dating show, I believe "If You Are The One", in which guests which decide to date hold hands with their partner. It is basically slang for getting along romantically.

 CH 36

    Ye Kehuan stared at the ground for a long time, smiled reluctantly, shook her head, and looked to the side: ¡°Unexpected, he¡¯s quite caring.¡±


    Jiang Laien grit her teeth for a long while, her jaw was slightly sore, and suddenly laughed: ¡°Yes, he was really a super invincible and caring person. No matter what I am thinking, he can understand it, and it was the first time we met.¡±


    How unlike you. You never know where my heart is.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s brain suddenly became a void of thought.


    After a moment, Ye Kehuan laughed again, but the corners of her lips trembled: ¡°Have you finally met the right person? Congratulations.¡±


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go, it¡¯s our turn to film, don¡¯t let Director Chen wait too long.¡± After that, Ye Kehuan did not wait for Jiang Laien to speak, coughed twice, and then hurried forward with her shoulders lowered and her head down.


    Although there was no snow in Chongyuan City that day, the temperature was lower than before, and people couldn¡¯t help shaking from the cold. Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief and hugged her arms tightly, as if it would feel better.


    Jiang Laien looked at her back for a long time, stretched out her hand, and gently pressed it against the corner of her eye with her fingertips.


    At that moment, a tissue was handed to her silently. Jiang Laien looked sideways and saw Yingying¡¯s worried appearance.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Jiang Laien took out the tissue and continued to move forward.


    There were a total of three scenes that Ye Kehuan would be filming that day.


    One was when Su He took Qi Luo and Lu Xun to sit and chat in a hotel room; the other was when Su He heard Mo Jiaojiao mentioning conspiracy theories in the circle that she was related to Song Yu¡¯s murder, and became very angry. Finally, there was a scene where Su He and Qi Luo continued to dig out some new clues after running around.


    The first scene was shot in the hotel room. After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien arrived at the shooting location they saw that the camera was still in place.


    Apart of Zhang Haotian, Cheng Yan was also there. Because Ye Kehuan would often watch people filming without filming herself, and this won the praise of the whole crew, Cheng Yan did a good job in trying to make everyone admire her in the same way.


    It was a pity that after half a month, her status in the crew was still a lacking existence, which was no better than Ye Kehuan. Therefore, Cheng Yan¡¯s heart was overwhelmed.


    She really didn¡¯t understand why. Her acting skills were also online, so why did everyone praise Ye Kehuan, but not her?


    After Zhang Haotian saw Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, he immediately smiled and said: ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day!¡±


    Cheng Yan also followed up and said, ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day!¡±


    ¡°Happy New Year¡¯s Day.¡± Jiang Laien replied with a smile.


    Ye Kehuan, who was still a little distracted, nodded and smiled after hearing it, ¡°Have fun.¡±


    Cheng Yan looked Ye Kehuan up and down.


    ¡°By the way, did you watch the party last night? It was pretty good.¡± Zhang Haotian looked at the staff debugging the equipment with his arms folded.


    ¡°No, I went to see the light show with my friends last night.¡± Jiang Laien shook her head and raised her eyebrows slightly. She seemed to have a special function, always able to hide her emotions to the maximum in front of outsiders.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Jiang Laien who was smiling next to her. After a long while, she turned her head and looked at the staff who was working on the equipment. Inexplicably, she had a feeling that she couldn¡¯t fit into the world, and she was uncomfortable.


    ¡°Ah yes, you posted to Moments last night,¡± Zhang Haotian smiled and nodded, ¡°Did Kehuan go with you? You two have a very good relationship.¡±


    Suddenly called out, Ye Kehuan was stunned for a long time before she recovered, raised her head to look at him, and shook her head: ¡°I had something to do last night, so I didn¡¯t go.¡±


    After Zhang Haotian listened, he nodded and said nothing more.


    However, Cheng Yan on the side still looked at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien thoughtfully. The atmosphere between those two good sisters seemed a bit wrong. Could it be that trouble was brewing? Thinking of this, Cheng Yan¡¯s lips curled up.


    In the blink of an eye, everything was set up properly, and Director Chen said that he could start shooting, and everyone was in place.


    Zhang Haotian and Ye Kehuan sat behind a table. Jiang Laien stood to the right of Ye Kehuan, and then Chen Fei raised his hand: ¡°Action!¡±


    Zhang Haotian looked at a cup on the coffee table, then turned to look at Ye Kehuan with a solemn expression: How did you enter the old community house last time?¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien. For a moment, she persuaded herself to enter the scene quickly, then hurriedly turned to look at Zhang Haotian: ¡°Damn Luoluo, she can go in anywhere, the door was also opened by her. I just unscrewed the doorknob and went in. What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    Zhang Haotian exhaled and frowned: ¡°When we went to investigate the abandoned building for the second time, we found that there was a remote pinhole camera on the side that could take pictures of you opening the door and entering.¡±


    ¡°What¡­¡± Ye Kehuan pressed her hands on the sofa, and Jiang Laien also opened her eyes slightly next to her.


    Zhang Haotian raised his eyes and looked at her: ¡°You may have been targeted.¡±


    ¡°This¡­¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien for a second, speechless.


    ¡°It takes minutes for the blind hand behind the scenes to kill you. Speaking of this, Song Yu died two days ago. Before she died, you shared a dressing room. You could say that the other party killed the wrong person. He wanted to kill you, but killed her.¡± Zhang Haotian whispered, tapping his fingers on the table several times.


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to cover her lips.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s pupils shrank.


    ¡°However, I still have a guess.¡± Zhang Haotian shook his hands. ¡°He doesn¡¯t necessarily want to kill you--he may want to blame you. He has killed several people, and he definitely needs a scapegoat. Then you come in. Perfect.¡±


    Chen Fei gave a close-up of the expressions of the three of them at that time, and shouted: ¡°Cut--¡±


    The scene was basically Zhang Haotian reading lines. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t say much, nor did Jiang Laien, and the filming went smoothly.


    After that scene, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were going to change their outfits.


    After Ye Kehuan put on her coat, she turned to look at Jiang Laien, who was standing beside. When she was wearing her clothes, her hair was tucked under her collar, and she was a little messy, so she was about to reach out to help her tidy up.


    However, Yingying had already helped Jiang Laien tidy up just as soon as she stretched out her hand. Ye Kehuan took it back when she saw that.


    When returning to the dressing room to change clothes and take a break, the two of them also did their own things, and there was a touch of subtle atmosphere.


    Finally, the makeup artist couldn¡¯t help but speak: ¡°Kehuan is really silent today.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was startled, and then smiled: ¡°No, I just didn¡¯t have a good rest.¡±


    ¡°Hey, I¡¯m almost freaking out. Then you hurry up and sleep?¡± The makeup artist scratched her hair.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, then looked sideways at Jiang Laien, and saw that Jiang Laien was talking and laughing with Lu Yan, so she closed her eyes and turned her head, then raised her hand and rubbed her temple.


    So tired. After not sleeping the previous night, coupled with excessive emotional fluctuations, she was now so exhausted that she felt that she might die suddenly at any time.


    In Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes, is Zhou Yue so good? Is this love at first sight?


    Zhou Yue¡­ Zhou Yue.


    Unable to sleep at all, Ye Kehuan opened her eyes again.


    In the blink of an eye, another scene was filmed.


    At noon, after Ye Kehuan had a meal, she went to sit next to Jiang Laien. The food provided by the crew that day was pretty good. It might be due to the festive season. There were several kinds of meat dishes, all of which Ye Kehuan liked to eat.


    After sitting down, Ye Kehuan reflexively prepared to give Jiang Laien her favorite food, but after seeing her chatting with people very happily, Ye Kehuan put down the food.


    Jiang Laien seemed to really not need her presence. Moreover, she seemed to be very energetic and happy. That day, she had become more fond of communicating with people around her than usual. Is it because you met Zhou Yue, you¡¯re so happy?


    Her chopsticks moved the rice grains, and in the end, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t eat a bite, so she covered the lunch box and walked to the dressing room with it.


    After Jiang Laien lightly took a bite of the braised octopus, she turned a little sideways and looked at Ye Kehuan, then turned her head and stared at the food in front of her in a daze. Afterwards, Jiang Laien rubbed her temples, picked up her lunch, and began to gobble it up.


    Jiang Laien had always been like that. When she was in a good mood, she would be a very self-disciplined person in every aspect of her life, including eating. She would put down her chopsticks when she was 70% full. However, once her mood deteriorated, she would be particularly undisciplined in life, and she would be able to eat to the fullest.


    However, her mood hadn¡¯t been so bad for a long time.


    When Ye Kehuan walked to the door of the dressing room, she looked at the boxed lunch in her hand for a while, only feeling that she had no appetite, so she turned around and gave it to an extra before returning to the dressing room.


    She didn¡¯t know if it was because of a lack of sleep. Ye Kehuan kept feeling that the day was too long. From the beginning of the filming to the end of the filming, although the number of NG shots was not too high, there were a lot of scenes, and it was not until one o¡¯clock in the morning that the work was finally finished. To her, it was like a century passed, and she was walking unsteadily.


    After finishing work, after Ye Kehuan finished changing her clothes, she looked sideways at Jiang Laien who was removing her makeup next to her. She still walked over: ¡°I¡¯m a little sleepy, shall we go straight back later?¡±


    After hearing this, Jiang Laien continued taking off her makeup: ¡°You go back by yourself first, I¡¯m going to have some supper.¡±


    ¡°With anyone?¡± Ye Kehuan picked up her bag.


    Jiang Laien looked at herself in the mirror, and continued to wipe her cheeks with a wet wipe: ¡°If you are sleepy, go back. I have an appointment. Also, don¡¯t stay up so late anymore. Look at your dark circles for yourself. Seeing how low you are today, if you stay up all night, you will be dead by morning.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan nodded, and let out a sigh: ¡°Okay, then I¡¯m leaving now.¡±


    ¡°Well, see you tomorrow.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she turned and left the dressing room.


    Wait, there¡¯s an appointment¡­ Do you mean that you have an appointment with Zhou Yue? Seeing him so often, is it true that the two of you really became a couple?


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan suddenly stopped.


    After that, she immediately hid aside and spied on the door of the dressing room.


    After a few minutes, Jiang Laien and Yingying came out, so Ye Kehuan followed them without saying a word.


    Leaving the set and walking to the street, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were always tightly locked on Jiang Laien, never leaving.


    As she walked, Jiang Laien suddenly stopped and turned around, and Ye Kehuan squatted under a trash can.


    She heard Yingying asking: ¡°Sister Laien, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    Jiang Laien replied: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, maybe I¡¯m superstitious from filming. I¡¯m always afraid that I will be followed by some extraordinary phenomenon. Let¡¯s go faster.¡±


    Then they went on again.


    After Ye Kehuan stood up halfway cautiously, she had learned a lot and followed farther that time.


    A few minutes later, Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Laien and Yingying go to the barbecue restaurant where she had eaten with her before. So Ye Kehuan stood behind a billboard diagonally across from the barbecue shop and looked at it from time to time.


    Shouldn¡¯t Zhou Yue be here by now? Why are they both there? A cold wind blew, and her skin was cut like a knife. Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but pull on her clothes, and then looked down at the time on her phone.


    At that time, in the barbecue shop.


    After Jiang Laien and Yingying sat down after choosing their dishes, Yingying pursed her lips and whispered to Jiang Laien, ¡°Sister Laien, this boss looks so good! I think I¡¯m about to bend.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien raised her eyes to the young woman wearing a headset at the door, and exhaled: ¡°I don¡¯t know if she looks good or not, but the things she cooks are really delicious.¡±


    ¡°Of course you don¡¯t know¡­¡± Yingying pouted, ¡°It¡¯s impossible to look at other people if you have someone you like.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you have Sister Kehuan in your heart¡­¡± Yingying said. When she raised her head to meet Jiang Laien¡¯s gaze, she suddenly felt regretful and wanted to bite off her tongue. If you talk nonsense like this, you could lose your job, you know!


    ¡°How did you know?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s expression was suddenly serious.


    Yingying panicked instantly: ¡°I, I just saw it by myself and guessed it.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, glanced at the boss wearing her headset, approached her and warned in a low voice, ¡°Don¡¯t say this again in the future.¡±


    ¡°Well, I understand.¡± Yingying crossed her fingers.


    ¡°That¡¯s good,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, and then suddenly said, ¡°You said, when you are sad, you get happier when drinking wine? Because your brain will be paralyzed?¡±


    ¡°Ah¡­¡± Yingying rolled her eyes and shook her head, ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡±


    Jiang Laien let out a long sigh full of emotions, then stood up and walked to a cooler near her.


    Outside the barbecue shop, Ye Kehuan was still standing there, breathing in her hands every so often, and then looking at the barbecue shop again. Why hasn''t Zhou Yue come yet? Did the pigeons get lost or what?


    Ye Kehuan was thinking that way, when she suddenly saw what Jiang Laien was drinking. She was a little shocked. Is she really drinking? They were too far apart to see it clearly.


    Inadvertently, a long time passed, and the thick ink-like night sky gradually filled with  thin snow. Ye Kehuan wrapped her clothes tightly, looked up at the snowflakes, and couldn¡¯t help but grit her teeth.


    After standing for so long, it was cold outside, and Ye Kehuan felt that her hands and feet were almost not her own. When she looked up again, Ye Kehuan found that Jiang Laien had fallen asleep on the barbecue table, while Yingying was checking out.


    Is she drunk? Ye Kehuan was stunned, and then hurried into the store.


    The boss glanced at her: ¡°I¡¯m going to close.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded and continued to walk towards Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Hey, Sister Kehuan¡­¡± Yingying, who was about to take Jiang Laien away from the barbecue restaurant, looked at her incredulously, ¡°Why are you here? You haven¡¯t gone back yet?¡±


    ¡°Leave her to me, it¡¯s too late now, you should go back and rest first.¡± Ye Kehuan did not answer her question.


    ¡°Oh, okay¡­¡± Yingying nodded, and then handed Jiang Laien to Ye Kehuan. Originally, she wanted to say something to Ye Kehuan, but when she thought of what Jiang Laien had just said, she let it go. She didn¡¯t say anything, just pointed out, ¡°Then I¡¯ll go back first.¡±


    ¡°Go.¡± After Ye Kehuan hung Jiang Laien¡¯s bag on her left shoulder, she put a mask on Jiang Laien, pulled Jiang Laien up, wrapped her arm around her waist, and walked out of the barbecue shop.


    The barbecue shop owner took off her headphones and looked at their backs.


    The shop was handed down to her by her father, and it had been open for 20 years. Her father ran it for fifteen years, and she took over for five years. During those years, it could be said that she had seen countless people who were frustrated in business and love, and she had become a little numb.


    Withdrawing her sight, the boss turned around and collected the remnants on the table, turned off the lights, and closed the shop. She put on her helmet and rode away on her motorcycle.


    After Ye Kehuan took Jiang Laien out of the barbecue restaurant, she walked towards Huazhi B&B.


    Along the way, Jiang Laien was very well-behaved and didn¡¯t make any trouble, except that her whole body was dangling when they walked. Ye Kehuan could only hold her tightly.


    After reaching the foot of the hotel, Ye Kehuan showed her card to the security, then led Jiang Laien through the door, and after going upstairs, she searched for Jiang Laien¡¯s key card in her bag.


    Flipping through, Ye Kehuan saw what was inside, much of which was given to her by Ye Kehuan.


    After opening the door, she took her in, put her on the sofa, and turned on the central air conditioner.


    Then Ye Kehuan slowly turned around, unloaded her bag, put it on the corner of the sofa, sat next to her, shook her hands lightly, and looked at her quietly.


    After a while, when the heating was sufficient, Ye Kehuan took off her jacket and walked to Jiang Laien: ¡°You won¡¯t feel comfortable sleeping in a down jacket. I¡¯ll take it off for you.¡±


    Jiang Laien did not speak, but breathed quietly.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t ask anymore, just walked over, helped her unzip the zipper, and carefully took off her down jacket, and then carried her to the bed.


    Helping Jiang Laien take off her shoes and socks and putting them aside, Ye Kehuan put her legs on the bed again, and then walked into the bathroom.


    Turning on the faucet and rolling up her sleeves, Ye Kehuan poured water on her face several times, then wiped the water stains off her face, only to feel that her brain became clearer again. Afterwards, Ye Kehuan pulled down a towel, soaked it on hot water and wrung it out, then went out and stood beside Jiang Laien¡¯s and leaned down and began to wash her face carefully.


    Jiang Laien seemed to sleep soundly, except for humming from time to time, basically without any movement. It had something to do with the alcohol, but it also had something to do with insufficient sleep. In fact, she also didn¡¯t sleep much the previous night.


    Ye Kehuan stood up, hung the towel back in the bathroom, and returned to Jiang Laien¡¯s bed. She slowly squatted down, watching her, and suddenly remembered the scene of their first meeting.


    Jiang Laien at that time and presently were simply two different people. In the years since they were separated, Jiang Laien¡¯s growth rate could be described as amazing, and her changes were the same.


    In the past, Jiang Laien could not hide any emotions on her face, and she could always see through everything she was thinking about, but now Jiang Laien was sleek and sophisticated, like a perfect mask, impeccable even to wily media. There was no way for her to be suddenly caught depressed or angry.


    She is obviously perfect like a porcelain, but just now, she drank alcohol. I hope no one got a photograph, otherwise it will be a **** storm.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, stretched out her hand, and paused in the air for a second. In the end, she stroked her soft cheek, gently rubbing, staring at her eyebrows, and said to herself: ¡°It was because of being let go. Did you drink wine because of that pigeon?


    Jiang Laien frowned, opened her lips slightly, and groaned, then there was no movement.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her for a while, then let out a sigh, then pulled up the quilt to cover her body. After covering it, Ye Kehuan also half-laid down on the bed, tilted her head to look at her.


    Jiang Laien seemed a little uncomfortable in her sleep and started to move all kinds of ways, seemingly trying to remove the quilt.


    Ye Kehuan held down the quilt for her: ¡°Don¡¯t lift it, it¡¯s over if you catch a cold.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan looked at her for a while, and said, ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect that you would want to get married.¡±


    Speaking of that, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and rubbed her temples again: ¡°If I were¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s sourness grew stronger in her nose, and she help holding her hands: ¡°If I were a man, it would be fine, then, whether you liked me or not, I would definitely pursue you immediately.¡±


    ¡°But I am not.¡± Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of emotions. ¡°There are too few things that I can give you. It is impossible to give you a child, nor is it possible to give you a marriage that will be blessed by everyone¡­ Your dad would probably kill us both.¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s dad loved to compare. He was the kind that bought a Lamborghini if your family bought a Maserati. If your daughter was married to someone making tens of millions every year, then my daughter must marry someone stronger than this! Otherwise he would feel ashamed.


    What about Jiang Laien¡¯s mother¡­ She had expressed on a show more than once that she hoped her daughter could get married before the age of thirty, and then it would be best to have children.


    The most important thing was that Jiang Laien herself had the will to marry and have children, so what else could she do? Willfully go and forcibly bend others to stop them?


    In fact, didn¡¯t she also allow it¡­ As a result, Jiang Laien obviously didn¡¯t like her interfering with her, right? If she did more of that kind of thing, maybe she would hate her more and more.


    Maybe it was because she hadn¡¯t rested for too long, and her emotional system was broken. Ye Kehuan only felt that there was a mass of squishy things rolling in her mind at the time, and she didn¡¯t know what she was thinking.


    After a long time, Ye Kehuan finally let out a deep breath, calmed down her emotions, and looked at Jiang Laien on the side: ¡°Good night, Laien.¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan was about to lift the quilt and get out of bed when Jiang Laien suddenly rolled over, wrapped her arms around Ye Kehuan¡¯s waist, and buried her face in her chest.


    The author has something to say: More. Yesterday I was too tired, today¡¯s is yesterday plus today¡¯s weight together~

 CH 37

    At the moment Jiang Laien hugged her, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t dare to move, so she just let her hold her, and her breathing seemed to still. Then, she didn¡¯t know whether it was her emotions that promoted the rhythm of her heartbeat, or if her racing heart disturbed her thoughts and emotions. Various thoughts in Ye Kehuan¡¯s mind appeared one after another, entangling everything, and messing up her mind.


    She didn¡¯t expect Jiang Laien to make that move at all, and she suddenly didn¡¯t know what to do. She didn¡¯t know if Jiang Laien was awake or still drunk. If she woke up, she didn¡¯t know if she had heard what she said just then.


    After several minutes passed, she saw that Jiang Laien had no other reactions, but fell asleep with steady breathing, and Ye Kehuan¡¯s strained nerves were finally relieved.


    ¡°Laien?¡± Ye Kehuan called her softly, and seeing that she still didn¡¯t move, she closed her eyes.


    Slowly stretching out her hand, Ye Kehuan hugged Jiang Laien, put her chin on her head, and gently rubbed it.


    As the night got deeper and deeper, without knowing it, Ye Kehuan fell asleep hugging Jiang Laien.


    Probably because it had been too long since she had a good rest, Ye Kehuan slept for a long time that time, but her dreams did not change. First, she dreamed that she was rejected during her confession, and then she dreamed that Jiang Laien was going to be a housewife. Even in her dreams, she couldn¡¯t get the slightest peace.


    When Jiang Laien woke up, the sky was already bright, and sunlight filled the whole room. It was a bit difficult to adapt to and she couldn¡¯t open her eyes for a while.


    Retracting her gaze from the window, Jiang Laien opened the quilt and was about to get up, only to find that she had an arm resting on her abdomen. Following the arm up, Jiang Laien turned her head and saw Ye Kehuan, who was sleeping with her in her arms, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.


    Ye Kehuan breathed lightly and slept very soundly, but her eyebrows were furrowed, as if she was struggling with something in her mind.


    ¡°Kehuan? Why are you¡­ here?¡± Jiang Laien murmured.


    Seeing that Ye Kehuan was still not moving, Jiang Laien opened her mouth slightly, stretched out her hand, and stroked Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyebrows.


    At that time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyebrows trembled a little, so Jiang Laien immediately retracted her hand and turned her head to the side.


    After Ye Kehuan opened her eyes, she found that she was still lying on Jiang Laien¡¯s bed, and she was still holding Jiang Laien, and all her sleepiness disappeared immediately.


    ¡°You like holding me so much?¡± Jiang Laien asked at that moment.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan immediately released Jiang Laien, sat up cross-legged, and reached out to grab her hair, and muttered: ¡°You wanted to sleep with me¡­¡±


    ¡°Me?¡± Jiang Laien also sat up.


    ¡°You were drunk last night, and I brought you back. Then, you wanted to hug me to sleep, so I let you hug me. Later, when you fell asleep, it became me hugging you somehow.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°I¡­ Well, but how did you know where I was last night, and that is, if you were sleepy, why were you still outside at that point?¡± Jiang Laien looked sideways at her.


    ¡°Suddenly I wanted to eat barbecue, so I went down and looked, and then I saw you.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and gently rubbed her nose.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Why did you suddenly go drinking outside?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her again. Is it because of that pigeon? Did they blow up?


    After listening, Jiang Laien stared at the quilt for a long time, and shook her head with a smile: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, I just wanted to drink a few drinks suddenly.¡±


    ¡°No matter what the reason is, don¡¯t drink if you can¡¯t drink.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her with frowning eyebrows. ¡°Do you know how messy you were out there? What would I do if something went wrong?¡±


    Jiang Laien raised her eyebrows lightly: ¡°Are you so worried about me?¡±


    ¡°Nonsense,¡± Ye Kehuan let out a long sigh, blowing away a strand of hair on the bridge of her nose, and then turning her eyes, staring at her, pointing her finger to her chest: ¡°What about it? Would you like me to find a knife? Cut my chest open for you to see?¡±


    Perhaps it was because Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were too deep and her words were too sweet. Even if Jiang Laien knew that Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t like her, her heart was still drawn by it, and her ears were pounding suddenly and felt blazing hot.


    At that moment, a cell phone ringing suddenly sounded, and the two of them got out of bed to find their cell phones.


    As a result, it was Ye Kehuan¡¯s, and the call came from Chen Lulu.


    After Ye Kehuan picked up her phone, Chen Lulu¡¯s voice passed into her eardrums: ¡°Kehuan, are you free today? Will you still be shooting in the middle of the night?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a few seconds and then said: ¡°I won¡¯t film today. Today the director is filming other people¡¯s scenes.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Chen Lulu smiled, ¡°Then are you coming out now? Xiao Mo and I are wandering aimlessly outside now.¡±


    ¡°Xiao Mo is there too?¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a moment.


    ¡°Yes, are you surprised or are you surprised?!¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice sounded super excited.


    ¡°Well, it¡¯s almost noon now, then, do you have anything you want to eat?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yes, Hua Duiyue barbecue restaurant!¡± Chen Lulu said, then spoke again, ¡°Is there anything wrong with Laien? If it¡¯s okay, you can come together, anyway, we all know each other, and it¡¯s been a long time. More people makes it more lively and more fun.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was a bit dazed. Why would Chen Lulu suddenly ask her to bring Jiang Laien? There was no friendship between her and Jiang Laien. However, Ye Kehuan had no easy way to ask.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Ye Kehuan held her phone, turned her head slightly towards Jiang Laien, and finally said, ¡°Okay.¡±


    ¡°Then come half past twelve, see you later!¡± Chen Lulu¡¯s voice was still happy.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, ¡°See you later.¡±


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Chen Lulu nodded.


    ¡°Then I will hang up the phone first.¡± Ye Kehuan picked up her coat.


    After hanging up the phone, Ye Kehuan put her coat on, turned around, and looked at Jiang Laien, who was sitting on the bed and playing with her mobile phone: ¡°Chen Lulu is here to play. She asked me to ask if you are free. If you are free, come out and let¡¯s play together.¡±


    Jiang Laien listened, raised her head from the screen of her phone, and looked at Ye Kehuan for a while: ¡°If I go, would that be okay? I never really got along with her, and I haven¡¯t had any contact with her since then.¡±


    ¡°Do you want to go with me?¡± Ye Kehuan put her hand into her sleeve.


    Jiang Laien looked at her and suddenly felt that she was really hopeless. Last night, I made up my mind to keep my distance from Ye Kehuan, but now, I¡¯ve found I can¡¯t keep my word again.


    ¡°Then I will take a bath and change clothes.¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll wash up too, and then come to see you again.¡± Ye Kehuan turned around and picked up her bag.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    After watching the door close, Jiang Laien closed her eyes again and sighed. Ye Kehuan¡¯s face, why can¡¯t I get tired of it? Ye Kehuan, why can¡¯t I let go? Am I cured? Similar to the curse of Aztec gold coins?


    At 11:50.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien bundled up, they walked out together tightly.


    When they arrived at Hua Duiyue Restaurant, it was around 12:20.


    They saw Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo already sitting there.


    Chen Lulu, who could not cook, was the spitting image of an exquisite rich lady. Wearing a mid-length off-white double-faced cashmere coat with knee-length boots, her black hair was burned into a slightly curled appearance down the sides of her face to her chest. The makeup on her face was also exquisite, and it looked very picturesque.


    I have to say that Chen Lulu is a typical rich woman with an innocent girl character.


    As for Xiao Mo, she was much simpler than her. She was covered in sports brands all over her body, and she had no makeup, and she still had short hair. She looked very small.


    ¡°Come here, sit down!¡± Chen Lulu immediately greeted them when she saw them.


    So Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien sat across from them.


    ¡°Wow, it¡¯s really been a long time since I saw classmate Jiang Laien,¡± Chen Lulu smiled, and passed the menu and pen. ¡°We have just ordered some meat we want to eat, but we didn¡¯t order too much. It must not be enough for four people to eat. You can see if you have anything else you want to eat.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, long time no see.¡± Jiang Laien pulled down her mask and took the menu with a smile.


    Chen Lulu looked at her and blinked her eyes: ¡°Sure enough, a star is a star, and she can be so beautiful without makeup.¡±


    ¡°Where, I¡¯m overwhelmed.¡± Two pears appeared on the corner of Jiang Laien¡¯s lips.


    ¡°What about me?¡± Ye Kehuan pointed at herself.


    After listening, Chen Lulu curled her eyebrows and looked at her like a monster: ¡°You don¡¯t cut it.¡±


    ¡°Couldn¡¯t you make something up?¡± Ye Kehuan pressed the palm of her hand on the table, her lips twitching.


    At that time, Xiao Mo, who was playing with her mobile phone, said: ¡°The main reason is that we are too familiar with you. We grew tired of seeing your face 800 years ago.¡±


    ¡°Correct answer.¡± Chen Lulu nodded with folded arms.


    ¡°Hey, you two, give me some face, okay?¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but complain, ¡°Where are friends like you¡­ I think I look good, and many people even suspect that I had plastic surgery. It¡¯s good, right? Hey, is my face really tiring?¡±


    Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo suddenly laughed as they listened.


    When Jiang Laien, who was reading the menu, heard that, she finally couldn¡¯t help but whisper: ¡°Who said that?¡±


    Hearing those three words, Ye Kehuan was stunned.


    Jiang Laien turned her head and fixed her gaze on her face: ¡°You look good; I¡¯ll never get tired of it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was happy, so she leaned close to her, raised her eyebrows, and slightly hooked the corners of her lips: ¡°Really?¡±


    Their distance was really too close, and Jiang Laien could see her reflection in her eyes. Jiang Laien¡¯s hand stiffened slightly, and then she moved her gaze away from Ye Kehuan¡¯s sculpted face, and continued to look through the menu: ¡°Can I still lie to you?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan tilted her head to look at her and smiled.


    Jiang Laien flipped through the menu again, and finally couldn¡¯t help it, looking at Ye Kehuan uncomfortably: ¡°What are you looking at me for?¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°I¡¯ll never get tired of you either.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien was hit in her heart suddenly, staring at the menu for a long while, and whispered: ¡°Today¡¯s mouthwash came with honey?¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed: ¡°Because I¡¯m in a good mood.¡±


    Although it seemed to be very stupid, it was just like that. She was happy when she thought that Jiang Laien might have broken up with Zhou Yue. It should be broken, right? Otherwise, during their rare rest day, why would Jiang Laien choose to go out to play with her instead of looking for Zhou Yue?


    Chen Lulu, opposite them, looked at the two of them thoughtfully, and slowly took a sip of her milk tea, squinting her eyes, and a bright light came out.


    Is Jiang Laien really straight? Is Foolish Ye so sure? How come I feel that is not necessarily true?


    The author has something to say: Jiang Laien: I suspect you are teasing me!

 CH 38

    ¡°You¡¯re in a good mood, that¡¯s pretty good¡­¡± Jiang Laien muttered and turned her head, continuing to look through the menu.


    However, in Ye Kehuan¡¯s heart, did she really look so good? As a public figure, although Jiang Laien¡¯s appearance had been praised as early as 800 years ago, she almost felt nothing at such praise, but she did not expect that every time she was praised by Ye Kehuan, her head would still twitch. Saying she looked good by Ye Kehuan seemed to be different than it being said by others.


    Ye Kehuan still looked at her, the corners of her lips twitching endlessly.


    Jiang Laien could feel her gaze, and as a result, she could no longer concentrate on ordering food.


    ¡°What, haven¡¯t you ordered yet?¡± After a while, Ye Kehuan stretched out and leaned on the table again, looking at the menu.


    ¡°It¡¯s a bit difficult to choose.¡± Jiang Laien continued to look at the menu.


    ¡°Oh, then let me see.¡± Ye Kehuan leaned over to her as she spoke.


    After realizing that Ye Kehuan¡¯s breath was suddenly close at hand, Jiang Laien was stunned and looked at her sideways.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Kehuan looked away from the menu and over to her face.


    ¡°Nothing¡­¡± Jiang Laien shook her head, ¡°Then look at it.¡±


    She was really speechless. She knew that Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t mean anything by it, but she still felt like that. Ye Kehuan would always make her little heart jump wildly by some inadvertent actions.


    Sometimes, Jiang Laien really hoped to find something like Wang Qing Shui, so that she could get rid of all her emotions when she drank it. 1


    Opposite them, Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo drank milk tea and involuntarily glanced at each other. Then, Chen Lulu suddenly leaned in to Xiao Mo¡¯s ear and began to whisper.


    Xiao Mo listened, nodded, and finally laughed, covering her mouth with a treacherous grin.


    After ordering the meat, Ye Kehuan glanced up at them and held up a glass of water: ¡°What are you talking about shamelessly?¡±


    ¡°We said, you two look quite right.¡± Chen Lulu raised her eyebrows.


    Ye Kehuan had no idea that Chen Lulu would say such words so boldly and straightforwardly, and Jiang Laien was still beside her, so she became so nervous that she coughed.


    ¡°What¡­¡± Ye Kehuan squeezed the cup, winked at Chen Lulu in a panic, and motioned to her to stop talking.


    When Jiang Laien heard Chen Lulu¡¯s words, she was also taken aback, and then lightly stroked her hair: ¡°What are you talking about¡­¡±


    ¡°I just think you match. I¡¯m your CP fan from ¡°The Food is Ready¡±, the kind of invincible brain-dead type!¡± Chen Lulu raised her left eyebrow as she spoke.


    ¡°Ha? CP fan?¡± Why didn¡¯t Ye Kehuan know that she was a CP fan of her and Jiang Laien?


    ¡°Yes, I watched that show.¡± Chen Lulu nodded.


    ¡°When did you watch it?¡± Ye Kehuan froze.


    ¡°Please, who are you, you are the **** buddy of this Chen Lulu. You participate on a show? Of course I will watch it, no matter how busy. Let alone the show, I have watched all your bad movies.¡± Chen Lulu pouted.


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°Thank you for watching my bad movies.¡±


    ¡°Okay, don¡¯t change the subject. In short, they are really super-matching, aren¡¯t they Xiao Mo?!¡± Chen Lulu stretched out her hand to push Xiao Mo on the side.


    When Chen Lulu pushed, Xiao Mo nodded obediently like a mascot. Actually, Xiao Mo didn¡¯t watch that show. If it hadn¡¯t been for Chen Lulu saying that they were worthy of each other, she would not have paid attention.


    ¡°Where are we¡­¡± Jiang Laien only felt that her cheeks were too hot, and her heartbeat seemed to burst out of her chest.


    ¡°Let¡¯s put it this way, when Big Fool Ye was with us, she never left the things we loved to eat for us. It would be good if the dog didn¡¯t **** all the things from us. But in that show¡­ Surprisingly, she would actually give you all her favorite food.¡± Chen Lulu said ¡°tsk tsk¡± a few times.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Ye Kehuan became more and more panicked.


    ¡°Ms. Ye, please shut up for me first, this girl hasn¡¯t finished speaking.¡± Chen Lulu stretched out her hand hurriedly before Ye Kehuan could speak, making a ¡°stop¡± gesture, her voice a little bit sweet and a lot arrogant.


    So Ye Kehuan gulped and scolded her like a dog in her head. Chen Lulu, what are you going to do?


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t even dare look at Ye Kehuan next to her. Really? Was Ye Kehuan only doing that for her? Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help laughing, and then immediately gathered all her emotions and sat there like a big Buddha, as if she would not move even if the sky were to collapse or the ground to crack.


    They didn¡¯t know how fun it was to react to each other in the eyes of their crush.


    Then, Chen Lulu laughed again and stretched out a finger to dangle in the air: ¡°Also, when Big Fool Ye went to the haunted house with us, oh my god. I really wanted to hammer her dog head, I really did. After I went in, I was terribly scared. As a result, not only did she not comfort me, but also mocked me, saying my courage was like a rat¡¯s, and even frightened me with the ghost inside. But you are different, Laien, when you were in the secret room. There was a cry from inside and she hummed and hugged you. Isn¡¯t that love?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that, her eyes turned slightly. Is that really the case? Is Ye Kehuan so skinny in front of others? However, in front of me, I never seemed to have been skinned¡­ 2


    ¡°Well, you talk nonsense,¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and scratched her ear, ¡°Where did I treat you so differently¡­¡±


    ¡°Ah, what nonsense am I talking?¡± Chen Lulu folded her arms and stared at Ye Kehuan with anger, ¡°Will your conscience hurt?¡±


    Xiao Mo smiled: ¡°She has no conscience.¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand to touch her face, stroked her hair all the way up, and shook her head.


    ¡°CP in the entertainment circle is quite common, why, are you so unwilling to play with Laien as a CP? Don¡¯t you like Laien?¡± Chen Lulu blinked her big eyes, looking extraordinarily harmless.


    ¡°Who said that?¡± Ye Kehuan heard that and immediately looked at her.


    When she saw Chen Lulu curling her lips with a smirk, she realized that she seemed to have been baited.


    As a result, Ye Kehuan opened her mouth slightly, and it took a long time before she spat out another sentence: ¡°If I didn¡¯t like her, how could I become friends with her?¡±


    After listening, Chen Lulu instantly folded her arms and frowned, staring straight at Ye Kehuan like she was throwing a temper tantrum.


    She¡¯s so stupid, she has been given so many chances, and she didn¡¯t answer any of them!


    ¡°Yes, so, we¡¯re just ordinary friends.¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien, who had been silent, suddenly came out to make a sound.


    Chen Lulu sighed, feeling like it was time to think about some powerful medicine.


    ¡°Hey, why hasn¡¯t the barbecue come up yet, I¡¯m a bit hungry.¡± Jiang Laien tried to make herself laugh not strangely, and when she was talking, she poured herself a glass of water and turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Give me the jug.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± Ye Kehuan stretched her eyebrows slightly, and handed the pitcher over.


    At that time, a waiter walked in with a trolley, put their orders on the table, and politely smiled and asked if they needed anything else.


    After listening, Chen Lulu waved her hand hurriedly.


    The quality of the barbecue meat in that shop looked pretty good, both in color and thickness.


    Just when Ye Kehuan picked up the tongs to prepare the barbecue, Chen Lulu suddenly said: ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I sang. I want to sing a song tonight.¡±


    ¡°Sing¡­¡± Ye Kehuan put a few pieces of meat on the grill, put down the tongs, and raised her hand to touch her chin.


    ¡°Yeah, but with just the two of us, it¡¯s not very fun. You can come with us, okay?! After all, crowds of people are the only way to get energy!¡± Chen Lulu continued to fiddle with her milk tea straw, smiling.


    ¡°Yes, but you really don¡¯t like singing. If you don¡¯t, why do you suddenly want to sing?¡± Ye Kehuan kept feeling that Chen Lulu was a little weird that day.


    In her impression, Chen Lulu was the kind of person who basically did not use the microphone and only played games after arriving at KTV. Because she was tonedeaf, she would run anywhere else.


    ¡°Why can¡¯t I want to go now?¡± Chen Lulu narrowed her eyes and looked up and down Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°No, no, just go if you want. I haven¡¯t sung in a long time.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled at Chen Lulu, then turned to look at Jiang Laien, ¡°Want to go?¡±


    Jiang Laien was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded: ¡°Since we¡¯re already out, let¡¯s go. Anyway, we won¡¯t be filming until tomorrow afternoon.¡±


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll book the box now?¡± Chen Lulu picked up her phone and shook it slightly while she was talking.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan frowned again: ¡°Speaking of which, why did you suddenly run here to play again?¡±


    After listening, Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but pause for a moment while playing with her mobile phone, then raised her eyes to look at her: ¡°Didn¡¯t I want to switch to making clothes? I came here to look around. Isn¡¯t the clothing industry quite developed here? Design trends, factories, the lot.¡±


    ¡°Already tired of barbecue?¡± Ye Kehuan took out the power bank from her bag and plugged it into her phone.


    Chen Lulu breathed deeply: ¡°Because I think that if there are things you can¡¯t let go of, you should chase them bravely. But if you decide to let go, let go and start again.¡±


    Jiang Laien and Xiao Mo were at a loss, thinking that Chen Lulu was simply saying that it was her dream to make costumes. Now she was going to put down the barbecue and switch to costumes.


    But Ye Kehuan knew that she was talking about the barbecue shop owner who made her fall in love at first sight and refused her confession.


    ¡°Alright.¡± Ye Kehuan still admired Chen Lulu.


    ¡°Let go of what?¡± Xiao Mo kept feeling there was a story she didn¡¯t know.


    Chen Lulu fiddled with the tips of her hair for a long time, and finally sighed, ¡°What else can it be? Of course it¡¯s feelings.¡±


    ¡°Fuck, have you ever been in love?¡± Xiao Mo was incredulous. After all, Chen Lulu had never talked to her about those things.


    ¡°No,¡± Chen Lulu shook her head and looked at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, ¡°I just liked chasing someone. A woman. The owner of a barbecue shop. She is so cool, so I fell in love with her at first sight. But she didn¡¯t like me, and she firmly believed that I just wanted to have fun, so when I confessed, she unceremoniously refused. Everything started and ended there.¡±


    Xiao Mo couldn¡¯t help but sigh when she heard that, and patted Chen Lulu on the shoulder again.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Chen Lulu tightened her lips, then cleared her throat, ¡°I¡¯m not sad, really.¡±


    ¡°Do you like women?¡± Ye Kehuan was shocked. Didn¡¯t she say that she was not interested in women before? Therefore, Ye Kehuan thought that the owner of Chen Lulu¡¯s barbecue restaurant was a man.


    Next to her, Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes darkened when she heard Ye Kehuan¡¯s reaction. It turned out that Ye Kehuan really didn¡¯t even have the idea of homosexuality in her mind?


    ¡°Yes,¡± Chen Lulu laughed, a little helpless. ¡°It was the first time in my life that I felt such a strong attraction to a person, but it turned out like this.¡±


    ¡°Hey,¡± Ye Kehuan sighed and turned over the meat on the grill. ¡°The barbecue shop owner you mentioned is not from Huazhi B&B, right?¡±


    Chen Lulu froze: ¡°How do you know¡­¡±


    ¡°I went to check it out,¡± Ye Kehuan sighed, ¡°She has good craftsmanship. I think I am a very picky person, but I couldn¡¯t fault it. She was already really cool.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan said that, she threw the ball to Jiang Laien: ¡°Right?¡±


    Jiang Laien stopped her wandering thoughts, raised her head, and nodded: ¡°Yes, it was delicious. The boss was also good.¡±


    The boss was indeed very nice, regardless of her usual appearance of ignoring people, in fact, her heart was very soft. You could feel it from what she said to the drunkard.


    Chen Lulu was silent for a moment, and then laughed suddenly: ¡°Yes. She looks aloof, but she always does something very heartwarming. I still remember when I went to the barbecue, there were many people in it, and I was very hungry, too hungry. I was dizzy because of low blood sugar. When she was serving food and passed by me, she ¡®lost¡¯ two Snickers on my table. Then she walked away very smartly. When I thanked her, she didn¡¯t say a word, just turned her back and shook my raised hand casually. Such a cool rogue.¡±


    At that moment, Chen Lulu¡¯s heartstrings were suddenly moved, and she fell in love with her at first sight.


    Chen Lulu looked at the meat on the grill that was covered in oil and continued: ¡°What kind of person is she? She never takes the initiative to solicit customers to her business. She looks cold, but she will squat by the side of the road in the middle of the night to feed kittens. The kittens will get picked up, cleaned, and neutered before they are adopted¡­¡±


    Chen Lulu smiled: ¡°Do you believe it? She looks so cold. She usually listens to music with all kinds of heavy metal, but she likes all kinds of sweets. Pineapple buns, strawberry cakes, cheese buns, chocolates, etc¡­¡±


    ¡°It seems that you know a lot about her.¡± Jiang Laien picked up a piece of meat that Ye Kehuan had just put in her bowl, dipped it in some sauce, and put it into her mouth.


    ¡°Because I added her on WeChat, and I learned about her through her circle of friends,¡± Chen Lulu looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand that was holding the scissors to cut the meat, ¡°However, I have deleted her.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan put the new meat on, she raised her eyebrows: ¡°Lulu, let me ask you a question. Are you sure you can really let her go? Not fighting for her anymore?¡±


    Chen Lulu woke up like from a dream, raised her head, and pulled herself out of her memory: ¡°Ah, it should be possible, at least when I mention her now, I won¡¯t cry anymore.¡±


    God knew how miserably she was crying when she was rejected at first, and the swelling of her eyes didn¡¯t go away for a whole month.


    ¡°That¡¯s good,¡± Ye Kehuan sighed, and after thinking about it for a moment, asked, ¡°Then do you regret it? Tell her about it.¡±


    Jiang Laien swallowed the meat down her throat and raised her head.


    Chen Lulu continued to pick the table on the milk tea. After a long time, she raised her head: ¡°I don¡¯t regret it. Even if I didn¡¯t confess, what could I do? Will I be friends with her? Am I missing friends? I have close friends and friends, so there is no need for any more. Pulling a person you like to be your friend just hurts. I confessed and if she accepted, then everyone would be happy, but if she refused, then everyone is still happy because I am liberated.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened to her, she kept feeling that Chen Lulu was not only telling her personal feelings, but also conveying certain ideas to her. However, everyone knew that truth, but few people had the guts to practice it.


    Jiang Laien laughed suddenly: ¡°Lulu is still as free and easy as before; I really envy her.¡±


    ¡°Haha, no, no.¡± Chen Lulu raised her hand and stroked her hair, then took a deep breath.


    In fact, she still had some regrets. Would it have been better if she didn¡¯t confess so early, and contacted more people before confessing? At least, in that case, maybe she wouldn¡¯t be considered to just be having fun.


    Xiao Mo looked at her, sighed, and raised her hand to rub her curly hair.


    ¡°Why¡­¡± Chen Lulu chuckled.


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid you will be sad.¡± Xiao Mo stared at her flatly.


    ¡°I won¡¯t,¡± Chen Lulu finished, and put a piece of beef into her mouth. Then she shook her body while chewing with two fists. ¡°This meat is not bad, it¡¯s delicious!¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, and put a few more slices in her bowl: ¡°If you think it¡¯s delicious, eat more.¡±


    ¡°Thanks!¡± Chen Lulu finished speaking and continued to eat.


    Jiang Laien kept watching Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand turning the barbecue. Could the words Ye Kehuan said at least show that she had no resistance to homosexuality?


    After eating the meal, it was almost two o¡¯clock in the afternoon.


    The four people strolled around the major shopping malls in Chongyuan City. After buying a lot of things, they entered the pedestrian snack street and ate while walking. Time passed without anyone knowing.


    It gets dark early in winter. At around five o¡¯clock, it gradually got darker all around. At six o¡¯clock, the whole city was already bright and the temperature was getting colder. The pedestrians around were all wrapped up really tightly.


    As she walked, Jiang Laien felt a little cold and couldn¡¯t help but breathe into her hands.


    Ye Kehuan saw it, and hurriedly asked, ¡°Is it cold?¡±


    Jiang Laien shook her head when she heard the words: ¡°Fortunately, just my hands are a bit cold.¡±


    Ye Kehuan thought a little bit, then raised her head and looked around: ¡°Wait, I¡¯ll buy a cup of milk tea.¡±


    After that, before Jiang Laien could speak, Ye Kehuan ran to the milk tea shop on the side.


    Chen Lulu looked at her back and suddenly sighed: ¡°Wow, we haven¡¯t hung out like this for a long time, right?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°Yes, it¡¯s been eight or nine years.¡±


    Chen Lulu smiled, put her hands in her jacket pockets, and took two steps: ¡°Jiang Laien, do you know that at that time, Xiao Mo and I were jealous of you?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at Chen Lulu, who was tall, cute, and beautiful, and smiled: ¡°You¡¯re not bad, what are you jealous of me for?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s not that.¡± Chen Lulu stretched out a finger and shook it a few times, pointing to Kehuan who was buying milk tea: ¡°I am jealous that Ye Kehuan is so close to you.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t you¡­¡± Could it be that Chen Lulu actually liked Ye Kehuan?! Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help turning her head to look at Ye Kehuan.


    Chen Lulu smiled and touched her chin: ¡°I don¡¯t like her. It¡¯s just that, at that time, I thought we were all friends too, so why was she so caring about you, always on call, but do Xiao Mo and I look so cared for to you?


    ¡°This¡­¡± Jiang Laien suddenly shocked. It seemed to be the case. ¡°Maybe because I looked weaker at that time, so I depended on her more.¡±


    ¡°Then you¡¯re still being treated differently now. Look at how Xiao Mo¡¯s hands are frozen,¡± Chen Lulu smiled and pulled Xiao Mo¡¯s hand that was trembling, ¡°Hey, all morning she¡¯s been like this, and I haven¡¯t seen her pay any attention, let alone buy a cup of milk tea or something. When you get cold, she will immediately buy milk tea on her own.¡±


    She might not have noticed¡­¡± Jiang Laien tucked her hair behind her ears.


    ¡°That makes sense,¡± Chen Lulu let go of Xiao Mo¡¯s hand. ¡°Many times, people only notice the things they care about and those they care about. If they don¡¯t care, it¡¯s easy to lose sight of them.¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu smiled and ran towards the milk tea shop.


    After Jiang Laien watched her back thoughtfully, thinking of what she said, she clasped her arms involuntarily. However, if Ye Kehuan was really interested in her, how could she let her go on a blind date without saying anything, and behave so calmly when she knew that she was getting so close to her blind date?


    You know, in Ye Kehuan¡¯s mind, she was already getting along well with Zhou Yue. However, she didn¡¯t look sad at all, like it didn¡¯t matter at all. How could she like her?


    Maybe Chen Lulu was really just a CP fan who loves gossip.


    After getting the milk tea, the four of them went around for a while and then went to KTV.


    After arriving at the KTV box with the lights turning constantly, Chen Lulu threw her bag away and leaned on the soda: ¡°Comrades, let¡¯s order a song!¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know what to sing¡­¡± Ye Kehuan coughed, ¡°You order first.¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t know what to sing? Come on, let me order you one. Just order the one you and Jiang Laien sang during the school New Year¡¯s party. You two sang strangely and beautifully.¡± Chen Lulu said and sat down by the song station.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but be stunned. In the next second, the words ¡°I obviously love you very much¡± appeared on the screen.


    Ye Kehuan was 100% sure that Chen Lulu was doing it deliberately. Everything that day was set up by Chen Lulu.


    When Jiang Laien saw those words, her eyes widened instantly.


    ¡°Come on, sing you two, I want to hear it!¡± Chen Lulu walked over and handed the two microphones to Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan still took the microphone and turned to look at Jiang Laien, ¡°Old rules, I sing the male part?¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, squeezed the microphone, looked at the screen with some nervousness, then raised the microphone to her lips,


    ¡°How many people are by your side


    We all turn a blind eye


    We can¡¯t help but look at each other a few more times


    Feeling the warmth of your smiles


    Already let me know my limit¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was very sweet. People only knew that she was good at acting, but they didn¡¯t know that she was also good at singing.


    That song Ye Kehuan had practiced with her many times, mainly to perform at the New Year¡¯s Day party. But now listening to Jiang Laien sing it, it felt different from then. She kept feeling that the words seemed to be directed at her.


    Except for mistakes, she seemed to have never hinted anything to Jiang Laien--she just kept hiding.


    Later, Ye Kehuan also raised the microphone:


    ¡°I¡¯m ordinary and unremarkable


    And you are like a brilliant star that takes away my worries¡­¡±


    Singing there, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien as she did when rehearsing, and sang with Jiang Laien:


    ¡°He obviously loves you very much


    I want to be close


    But you are always crowded with flowers


    Why should I one by one


    Defeat all my love rivals


    Dare to say loudly to be your only one¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien sang and turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan. After discovering that Ye Kehuan was also looking at her, only Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were left in her mind, and the lyrics were instantly forgotten.


    Afterwards, Jiang Laien hurriedly turned her head and stared at the screen with a hot face, and continued to sing.


    The time of a song is very short, and it ended in the blink of an eye.


    Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo clapped vigorously beside them. After finished, Chen Lulu also gave two thumbs up: ¡°As expected of my one true CP, praise!¡±


    Jiang Laien fell into a panic inexplicably. She originally wanted to pass the microphone to Chen Lulu, but accidentally poked her chin and said in a panic, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sorry.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Chen Lulu touched her chin, smiled weirdly, and threw the microphone to Xiao Mo again, letting Xiao Mo sing.


    After Jiang Laien returned to her original position and sat down, she let out a sigh of relief, only to find that her body was shaking a little.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Are you still cold?¡± Ye Kehuan asked in the next second.


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°Um¡­ Yes, it¡¯s cold.¡±


    ¡°Then I will turn the heating higher.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she went to adjust the thermostat.


    Chen Lulu looked at Jiang Laien from the side and then at Ye Kehuan. After pondering for a while, she suddenly said, ¡°Would you like to play a game?¡±


    ¡°What game?¡± Ye Kehuan asked when she came back.


    ¡°Just roll the dice,¡± Chen Lulu picked up the dice on the table, ¡°We¡¯ll divide into two groups: me and Xiao Mo, you and Laien. Each time your group rolls a larger number of points, you win, and the other two have to accept a punishment. Sound good?¡±


    ¡°Punishment, wouldn¡¯t I be a fool to let you take advantage of me?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her suspiciously.


    After listening, Chen Lulu chuckled: ¡°How is that possible? You two are public figures, and I have to leave you some face. How about it, sounds like fun?¡±


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s play!¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°What about Laien?¡± Chen Lulu looked at Jiang Laien again.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien smiled lightly.


    ¡°Momo, don¡¯t sing, come and play the game~¡± In the next second, Chen Lulu went and slipped Xiao Mo over.


    After Xiao Mo desperately sang the last sentence, she slowly put down the microphone: ¡°Start again, start again. How are we playing?¡±


    Chen Lulu snorted, and after explaining the rules to her, she started to roll the dice.


    After one round, Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo had a total of 12 points, while Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien only had 7.


    Jiang Laien looked at the count, her face completely ashamed.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand and stroke her hair back: ¡°It¡¯s just the start of the game.¡±


    Chen Lulu shook her shoulders: ¡°Yes, yes.¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s talk, what is the punishment?¡± Ye Kehuan still couldn¡¯t forget that Chen Lulu asked her to imitate a gorilla and run wildly on the school playground yelling ¡°I am a superhero¡±.


    Of course, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t forget that Chen Lulu had her pose in a crowd and shout ¡°On behalf of the moon, I will destroy you!¡±.


    After Chen Lulu heard that, she let out a ¡°hey¡±, and the corners of her lips rose.


    Both Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were a little creeped out by her.


    Finally, Chen Lulu looked at them: ¡°Kehuan, go up and kiss Laien, with tongue, for three minutes.¡±


    Hearing that, Ye Kehuan¡¯s mind almost exploded. Chen Lulu did it on purpose. The reason she proposed to play the game was for this moment, right? Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, clenching and unclenching her hands a few times.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s hands on her knees couldn¡¯t help but stiffen, but she used her peripheral vision to sneak a look at Ye Kehuan who was sitting next to her. At that moment, she couldn¡¯t tell what kind of mood she was in, only that her heartbeat was beating faster than ever. Would she agree?


    What if she agrees? How does it feel to be kissed by her? If she refuses, what should I do? Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t think of what kind of experience it would be.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Can¡¯t do it? Don¡¯t gamble if you can¡¯t afford to lose! Be happy, hurry!¡± Chen Lulu said with a smile.


    Ye Kehuan clenched her first and coughed softly, only feeling that the aura rolling in her was quite unstable. Tongue kiss or something, isn¡¯t this what I want in my dreams? But, are you sure you won¡¯t sink deeper and deeper and completely fall for her?


    ¡°Ye Kehuan?¡± Chen Lulu frowned. If that fool didn¡¯t cooperate, she was really going to be angry! God knew how hard she thought to create this opportunity for her. When choosing KTV, she also deliberately checked the comment section to see if there were dice.


    Ye Kehuan stared at the KTV coffee table, gritting her teeth. Inexplicably, she remembered the lyrics of the song she had just sung with Jiang Laien.


    ¡°I think it might be possible to change the punishment¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes turned dark, she let out a sigh, smiled, and prepared to make a round.


    ¡°No need to change.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice rang.


    Before Jiang Laien had time to react, in the next second, her shoulder was suddenly held and pulled over.


    Facing Ye Kehuan¡¯s angular face close at hand, and her deep eyes and thin lips, Jiang Laien suddenly failed to react, her pupils suddenly tightened, and slightly opened her lips: ¡°Kehuan..¡±


    ¡°Close your eyes.¡± Ye Kehuan pinched her chin, her voice slightly low.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s limbs became stiff at that moment. Then, a soft and throbbing kiss fell on her lips.


    The author has something to say: Although it is late, I am much more! Should I be praised? !

 CH 39

    For a moment, Jiang Laien only felt that all her blood rushed to her brain, rolling endlessly, and all the surrounding voices gradually became farther away.


    Ye Kehuan was very restrained, very light, and kept forcing herself not to take any further actions.


    Chen Lulu and Xiao Mo tilted their heads to the side and couldn¡¯t help but snicker. Then Chen Lulu cleared her throat again: ¡°I¡¯m pushing you, is this kiss to that degree? Didn¡¯t you lose the bet? You want to fool me like this? This isn¡¯t a big deal.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her, and then suppressed the tumbling emotions in her chest again, leaning close to Jiang Laien¡¯s ear, and asking in a low voice: ¡°Can you?¡±


    Jiang Laien herself was probably truly poisoned by Ye Kehuan. At that moment, she only felt that Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice was magical and charming. Gulping, Jiang Laien opened her lips slightly, and her whole body was a little nervous, unable to relax.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan also sat up straight and looked at her. The plain-faced Jiang Laien looked different from the mature and enchanting one when she wore makeup, but her eyes were pure and free.


    ¡°Can¡­¡±


    However, before Jiang Laien had time to speak, Ye Kehuan turned her head again and kissed her again. At that moment, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help widening her eyes, and her heart seemed to lose its beating function. That time, it was a different kiss.


    Ye Kehuan originally wanted to restrain herself a little and glide to the end. However, she found that she couldn¡¯t control herself at all. Gradually, the two people had embraced each other.


    It wasn¡¯t until Xiao Mo¡¯s cell phone suddenly rang out that the thinking of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien was pulled back into reality and looked at her.


    ¡°Sorry, I¡¯ll go out and answer the phone!¡± Xiao Mo was stunned, then scratched her head and ran outside.


    After seeing the KTV door closed, Chen Lulu smiled and said, ¡°Oh, that¡¯s good, for six minutes! I couldn¡¯t bear to stop you.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien suddenly realized that she was still in Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms, and immediately whispered: ¡°I¡¯m going to the bathroom.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned, then let go of her hand.


    Jiang Laien walked into the bathroom and closed the door. She turned her back to the door and looked at herself in the sink mirror. She stroked her hair, let out a long breath, and kept patting her face with her hands.


    It¡¯s over, it¡¯s over. Jiang Laien now really felt that she might be trapped in the quagmire of Ye Kehuan for the rest of her life.


    That kiss was really suffocating, and really fascinating.


    After watching Jiang Laien go to the bathroom, Ye Kehuan lowered her head and raised her hand to touch her lips.


    Could it be that this is hormones? It¡¯s terrible, I feel like I¡¯m being completely manipulated and becoming like an animal. But really, if it hadn¡¯t been for Chen Lulu coming up with that so-called punishment, she probably wouldn¡¯t know how strong her deep desire for Jiang Laien was, and how she wanted to take her as her own.


    ¡°Hi!¡± Just when Ye Kehuan was distracted, Chen Lulu suddenly sat next to Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan glanced at the bathroom, turned to look at her, and whispered: ¡°Did you deliberately set up everything today?¡±


    ¡°So what, didn¡¯t you kiss her so fascinatingly?¡± Chen Lulu finished speaking, covering her mouth and laughing silently.


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her brow. Although she was shaking her head, she couldn¡¯t refute.


    ¡°By the way, are you really sure that she is straight?¡¯ Chen Lulu stopped laughing, her expression serious, and asked Ye Kehuan seriously.


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, she put down her hand and turned her head to look at her, but in the end she didn¡¯t say anything.


    ¡°To be honest, I personally think her feelings for you should be beyond the scope of friendship.¡± Chen Lulu smiled and whispered after she finished speaking, ¡°Believe it or not. Xiao Mo and I think so. Then, how should I put it, if you really like her, just work hard. Although hard work may fail, if you don¡¯t work hard and surrender directly, you will never succeed.¡±


    In fact, Chen Lulu really envied Ye Kehuan. After all, Jiang Laien really liked Ye Kehuan almost all the time, and her¡­ that person didn¡¯t like her, 100%.


    Chen Lulu shook her head and threw the image of that person out of her mind. Sighing, she continued: ¡°As for the practical problems you worry about¡­ I don¡¯t think it is necessary. Life is always very dramatic. Do you think it¡¯s better to give her a man? That¡¯s just what you think, but she might not agree. What if that man is cheap? Also, if she likes women, if you don¡¯t want her, she will look for another one. If she looks for another woman, then you¡¯ve got the same **** problem. So, why bother?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at Chen Lulu for a while, then turned her head and stared at the cup on the table.


    ¡°Finally, ask yourself, when you kissed her just now, how did she react? Was it resistance, routine, or enjoyment?¡± After Chen Lulu finished speaking, she smiled and took out a small book from her bag and threw it to Ye Kehuan, then got up and went to the song station to browse.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at the KTV screen. No one was singing at the moment, so only the accompaniment sounded reverberated.


    However, because the sound in the box was still too loud, and they sat farther away, Chen Lulu did not hear it either. After that, Xiao Mo walked in, so Xiao Mo began to sing again.


    Xiao Mo¡¯s styles were always so unusual. For example, then, she was singing folk songs; she really was an exceptional girl.


    At that time, the bathroom door was opened from inside, and Jiang Laien, who had been in for a long time, finally walked out and sat down next to Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan pondered Chen Lulu¡¯s remarks, and then looked at Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien, who had just managed to sort out her emotions, became a little flustered instantly after she took a look at her. She stroked her hair and said: ¡°Aren¡¯t you going to sing¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°I don¡¯t want to sing.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡¯ Jiang Laien nodded.


    Ye Kehuan held her hands lightly and put them on her lap, pondered for a moment, and stared at the table: ¡°Why didn¡¯t you refuse just now?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard those words, she suddenly squeezed her fists: ¡°What¡­¡±


    ¡°That punishment.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Ah. Didn¡¯t you say that you were willing to bet and lose? Besides, I¡¯m saying that we are so familiar, what is there¡­¡± Jiang Laien looked down and grabbed her hands.


    Was that it? However, Ye Kehuan was clear about Jiang Laien¡¯s character. If she really didn¡¯t want to do it, then she would always find reasons and gently refuse.


    For example, ¡°Excuse me, I seem to get angry after eating barbecue and have ulcers, so let¡¯s change the punishment.¡± After all, Jiang Laien was very good at being an actor.


    After a moment, Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°I kind of want to go back. I signed a drama before and started filming. It won¡¯t be long before the part with my role will be up, so I want to go back and read the script.¡±


    ¡°In that case, let¡¯s go, here is not far from there. Let¡¯s go back, we ate too much today, and we have to move.¡± Jiang Laien also picked up her bag as she spoke.


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, and then looked at Chen Lulu, ¡°Lulu, I want to go back and read the script, so I¡¯ll leave.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re going back so soon? We haven¡¯t been here for an hour.¡± Chen Lulu froze.


    ¡°No way, all actors are like this.¡± Ye Kehuan pulled the corners of her lips and smiled.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Chen Lulu nodded, and then suddenly thought of something, and spoke again, ¡°I¡¯ll drive you back.¡±


    Ye Kehuan put her bag on her back, stood up, and said: ¡°It¡¯s okay. We¡¯re very close to out bed and breakfast. It¡¯s only a ten-minute walk away.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± Chen Lulu nodded.


    But at that moment, Jiang Laien pulled Ye Kehuan¡¯s clothes, shook her head slowly at her, and then smiled and said: ¡°I don¡¯t really want to walk. Lulu, if you think it¡¯s convenient, let¡¯s go back, okay?¡±


    After Chen Lulu listened, her eyes lit up: ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go!¡±


    Xiao Mo: ¡°Will you come back after you drop them off?¡±


    ¡°Uh¡­ No.¡± Chen Lulu shook her head.


    Xiao Mo fainted: ¡°Hey, then I¡¯ll ask my other little sisters to come over and continue singing. I haven¡¯t enjoyed it yet.¡±


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll go first, don¡¯t miss me too much!¡± Chen Lulu came over and pushed Ye Kehuan¡¯s arm and walked outside the door first, ¡°Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go!¡±


    Ye Kehuan was a little dazed. Why wasn¡¯t Chen Lulu so positive about her before?


    Jiang Laien lowered her head and sighed.


    ¡°Why did you suddenly decide not to leave by yourself?¡± Ye Kehuan approached Jiang Laien and asked softly.


    ¡°Do you think Lulu is trying to send us off? She is just looking for a reason to meet the owner of the barbecue shop.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°It turned out to be like this, I didn¡¯t expect it at all.¡± Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that she was indeed a big fool sometimes.


    ¡°You idiot, what can you think of?¡± Jiang Laien shook her head, walked out of the box, and sighed.


    Ye Kehuan followed her out, closed the door, and took two steps forward lazily with her long legs: ¡°For example?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her sideways, saw her three-dimensional features, bold eyebrows, and her eyes were still looking straight at her. She suddenly remembered the scene when she kissed her--her heartbeat started racing, and she hurriedly shook her head: ¡°Nothing. Just saying it casually.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded without saying more.


    ¡°Go, go.¡± Chen Lulu stood at the end of the corridor, looking at them with her mobile phone.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien moved forward.


    ¡°What kind of drama is that drama?¡± After walking out of the KTV and next to the car she rented, Chen Lulu pulled the door and got in.


    ¡°Literary and artistic love movie.¡± Ye Kehuan also opened the rear door and let Jiang Laien get in.


    ¡°Then it¡¯s over.¡± Chen Lulu shook her head.


    ¡°What? I haven¡¯t filmed yet.¡± Ye Kehuan went around to the other side, opened the rear door, and got in.


    ¡°But in the dramas you¡¯ve been in, all those with you in love are always not very good-looking. It feels like they are either very awkward or missing something.¡± Chen Lulu had always said something and would not give her false consolation.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded. In fact, Ye Kehuan¡¯s emotional dramas had indeed been criticized all the time. Especially in the kiss scenes, even though they were all misplaced shots, it was still said that her kiss scenes looked like she was kissing someone with a knife to her neck.


    Seeing that she seemed to be a little deflated, Jiang Laien hurriedly said: ¡°It¡¯s okay. Acting and other things are meant to be slowly figured out.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    At that time, Chen Lulu spoke again: ¡°Anyway, you two know each other well. If you have time, you can learn something about drama with Laien, right? Everything will be fine if you do for sure.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked down at the bag placed on her legs: ¡°She is very easy to teach. She often asks me where to act, and often finds me to act against. In fact, she is quite talented, but she hasn¡¯t learned anything before. Everyone on the crew is complimenting her. When the film is finished, you will be amazed by her.¡±


    After hearing those words, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help looking at her, only to see that Jiang Laien¡¯s face was full of seriousness and more seriousness.


    Chen Lulu was also dumbfounded. In fact, what she said was just implying that Ye Kehuan could create some opportunities for close contact with Jiang Laien, but she didn¡¯t expect that Jiang Laien would take care of it in an instant.


    Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but smile with relief: ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll just wait with the onlookers to watch the acting pop off!¡±


    Jiang Laien let out a long sigh of relief.


    Then, without noticing, they were at Huazhi B&B.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien got out of the car, they shook their hands at Chen Lulu and entered the bed and breakfast.


    Chen Lulu looked at their backs for a while, then turned her head, staring into the distance, and muttered to herself: ¡°Should I go? When I go, I always feel that I am so spineless. I have already been rejected, hey.¡±


    Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand and start rubbing her temples.


    Inexplicably, her mind was filled with the appearance of that person, and it couldn¡¯t be dispelled.


    In the end, Chen Lulu glanced at the time, did not worry too much, grabbed her bag, opened the car door, and quickly walked towards the barbecue shop with a look of death. The heels of her high heels knocked against the ground, making stepping sounds reverberate in the alley.


    So what if she had been rejected, was she still not allowed to eat?


    After walking for about two or three minutes, Chen Lulu slowly stopped.


    Under the night, the other brightly decorated shops around were very petty bourgeoisie, with the atmosphere of an Internet celebrity shop, except that the barbecue restaurant was different from them. The sign on the top that said ¡°Four Seasons BBQ¡± was already very old, and the walls of the store too, but the tables were always clean.


    At that time, business in the store was very prosperous, the staff was full, and there were no seats.


    And she, the woman Chen Lulu loved, was busy calmly and skillfully grilling. As always, only one earphone was plugged in, presumably to free up one ear to listen to the needs of the guests.


    Looking around, before she knew it, Chen Lulu approached the store and stood in front of her.


    ¡°The vegetables are in the cabinet inside. Take what you want to eat and take the basket by yourself.¡± The boss still stared at the skewers in her hand intently, her voice as always was faint, without too much emotion.


    Chen Lulu nodded, walked into the shop with her arms folded, picked up two baskets, went to the freezer to take out vegetables to fill them up, and finally turned around, walked to the boss, and put them next to her: ¡°Old rules, spicy, hot!¡±


    At the moment Chen Lulu spoke, the boss¡¯s hand holding the skewers suddenly stopped, then she raised her eyes and looked at her.


    After a moment, the boss said: ¡°Don¡¯t be willful, you have a bad stomach.¡±

 CH 40

    So you still remember that I have a bad stomach,¡± Chen Lulu laughed as she spoke, ¡°Ji Changge, I thought you had forgotten me.¡±


    Ji Changge no longer looked at her, just put the skewers in her hand on the grill, glanced at the two baskets of vegetables she had chosen, then took up the brush and applied a layer of oil to her hand: ¡°If you really want to eat spicy, slightly spicy is recommended.¡±


    ¡°No, I¡¯m going super hot. Don¡¯t you think I¡¯m just a woman who likes to look for excitement? How can mild hotness be enough excitement to satisfy me?¡± Chen Lulu looked at her calmly, and after speaking, she sighed, lips tightened.


    She would always remember what Ji Changge said when she rejected her: ¡°You rich people like to look for excitement and can afford it, but I don¡¯t like being excitement.¡±


    At that time, Chen Lulu was really so angry. Obviously she was being sincere, but the woman in front of her unceremoniously trampled her into the dust. She was considered to be a flirty thrill-seeker.


    After listening, Ji Changge nodded.  After sprinkling some cumin and other powders on the skewers in her hand, she put them in a small tray covered in plastic wrap, walked out from the grill, and turned towards the inside with a lot of food for people at the tables.


    She seemed to always be that way, tall, loving to wear dark clothes and Martin boots, with no makeup and an indifferent expression. Her steps were neither hurried nor slow.


    After the food was served, Ji Changge came back and looked down at Chen Lulu¡¯s high heels: ¡°I just closed a table and there will be a seat right away. Go ahead. There are quite a lot of people at this point. I guess if you wait much longer, your high heels won¡¯t hold.¡±


    After that, Ji Changge returned to her job.


    Chen Lulu looked inside and saw that a table of people had indeed left, and then raised the corners of her lips: ¡°Can I understand that you are caring about me?¡±


    Ji Changge took out a basket of new vegetables, put them on the grill, and dipped the brush in oil: ¡°I care about every diner.¡±


    Chen Lulu raised her chin slightly: ¡°Okay, that is also a type of concern.¡±


    After Ji Changge finished oiling the vegetables, she tilted her head and said, ¡°Did you die back then? Why are you here again?¡±


    Chen Lulu smiled: ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to remember what I said quite clearly.¡±


    Ji Changge frowned and looked back at the barbecue on hand.


    At that time, a table of people in the store asked: ¡°Boss, do you have Coke at room temperature?¡±


    Ji Changge turned her head and was about to respond. As a result, Chen Lulu walked towards the freezer, crouched down, and opened a cardboard box next to her: ¡°Yes, how many cans do you want?¡±


    ¡°Three cans!¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± Chen Lulu quickly took out three cans of Coke, put them in front of the guests, clapped her hands, and smiled sweetly: ¡°Here, I wish you a happy meal!¡±


    When the guests saw Chen Lulu, they were shocked by her beauty, and then hurriedly said, ¡°Thank you, your shop is so delicious!¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s delicious indeed. If you think it¡¯s delicious, remember to come often!¡± Chen Lulu smiled.


    After that, Chen Lulu walked to the door of the store again and stood beside Ji Changge.


    ¡°I have told you some things very clearly before. You don¡¯t have to think about me anymore, and I can¡¯t give you what you want.¡± Ji Changge looked at her sideways.


    Her voice was the same as her expression, cold and faint. However, like a sharp knife, it pierced Chen Lulu¡¯s chest unexpectedly, causing piercing pain.


    Chen Lulu was a little out of breath, but she blinked and smiled sweetly: ¡°I know, don¡¯t you see that you are very busy? What, can¡¯t I help you as a friend?¡±


    Ji Changge just looked at her quietly, her gaze so sharp that it could pierce all her disguises.


    Chen Lulu¡¯s raised lips gradually stiffened, and then nodded: ¡°Well, I don¡¯t care about you. I will be a quiet guest.¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu turned and walked inside, took a bottle of beer and walked to an empty table.


    The moment she sat down, Chen Lulu¡¯s nose began to get sore, her eyes were ringed red, tears fell uncontrollably, and she couldn¡¯t stop anything.


    She didn¡¯t know what she was doing. She said yes to let go, she said yes to start a new life, but she ran back. Was she a hopeless M? How many times did she have to be rejected before waking up?


    Ji Changge glanced at her back, then turned around to continue cooking.


    In the blink of an eye, it was two o¡¯clock in the morning. The shop became empty, and only Chen Lulu was sitting in a corner alone, drinking for a while, eating barbecue for a while, playing with her mobile phone for a while, and giggling for a while. Her laughter was uglier than sobs.


    After Ji Changge finished cooking a takeaway order, handed the things to the rider, she withdrew from the grill, discarded the cling film and food residue on the plates, and put them away after cleaning them. Finally, she slowly walked to Chen Lulu¡¯s side.


    After hearing her, Chen Lulu looked up at her and smiled: ¡°Are you finished?¡±


    ¡°Well,¡± Ji Changge sat down opposite her, ¡°I¡¯m going to close.¡±


    ¡°Does time pass so fast¡­¡± Chen Lulu staggeringly raised her wrist to see the time.


    Ji Changge looked at her for a moment, lowered her head and inserted a straw into the cup of yogurt in her hand, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of her: ¡°This closing time starts now, and it has been advanced.¡±


    Chen Lulu looked at the cup of yogurt, pondered for a moment, and asked with a smile: ¡°Are you going to give yogurt to everyone who drinks too much? I am not an exception, am I?¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge pulled off her earphones, picked up her phone and looked at it: ¡°I¡¯m going to close the door and go home.¡±


    ¡°You haven¡¯t answered my question yet.¡± Chen Lulu looked at her, her eyes flushed.


    Ji Changge was silent for a long time. In order to prevent her from misunderstanding, she said: ¡°Yes.¡±


    After Chen Lulu listened, she felt a bowl of cold water poured over her head, her mind was completely messed up, and her hands were trembling.


    ¡°So, you occasionally give snacks to other hungry customers?¡± Chen Lulu put her hands on her legs and continued to ask.


    Ji Changge adjusted her headphone cable and closed her eyes: ¡°I said, don¡¯t expect anything from me.¡±


    Chen Lulu stared at the beer bottle in front of her, bit her lower lip gently, and then smiled again: ¡°I don¡¯t have any. I just want to make sure that I am in your heart, whether I might be different from others.¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu sniffled and coughed. She picked up her mobile phone and scanned the QR code picture on the wall: ¡°How much?¡±


    ¡°Ninety-eight.¡± Ji Changge looked at the pile of beer bottles and most of the unfinished meat dishes on the table.


    ¡°Turn you.¡± After Chen Lulu finished speaking, she grabbed her bag, picked up the yogurt and stood up, and walked out staggeringly.


    Ji Changge looked at her back for a while, and after clearing the table, she turned off the lights and went out, ready to go home.


    As a result, as soon as she walked out, Ji Changge saw Chen Lulu still squatting next to her store.


    ¡°Should I call you a car?¡± Ji Changge walked to her.


    Chen Lulu didn¡¯t speak, she just shook her head, then stood up with the yogurt, and walked erratically in the direction of Huazhi. After taking two steps, she didn¡¯t look very good.


    At that time, the roar of a car came from down the street. Under the shining of the white light, Ji Changge narrowed her eyes.


    Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but stay there. Seeing the car getting closer and closer to her, she couldn¡¯t step out to avoid it inexplicably. At that moment, a hand suddenly stretched out, grabbed her arm, and pulled her to one side!


    Staggering back a few steps, her heels smashed, Chen Lulu fell back uncontrollably, but after a while, she did not touch the cold ground, but lay in a gentle embrace. At the same time, a muffled grunt came from the throat of the person below her.


    ¡°Thank¡­¡± Chen Lulu was stunned for a few seconds.


    ¡°You¡¯re so worrying. I¡¯ll send you back.¡± At that time, Ji Changge¡¯s voice accompanied by all kinds of breathing sounded above her head.


    Worry? Chen Lulu turned to look at Ji Changge who was half sitting up. Half of her face was hidden in the night, half of her face was exposed to a street lamp, her brows furrowed, looking worried.


    Ye Kehuan returned to the homestay. After taking a shower and drying her head, she wiped off the mist on the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, raised her hand to touch her lips, then closed her eyes, and couldn¡¯t help but recall being in KTV, in that scene.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s lips and body were so soft that she was almost completely addicted, wishing to ask for more. Had she become a person like Du Mingan? She used to hate such people so much.


    However, she couldn¡¯t restrain her thoughts of possessing Jiang Laien. She really thought about it, and it took her over. Leaning on the edge of the washbasin, Ye Kehuan lowered her head and let out a sigh, forcing herself to stop being so obsessed with Jiang Laien. After turning off the light, she walked out.


    Picking up the script, Ye Kehuan lay down on the bed and read the script to be shot the next day a few times. The content to be filmed the next day was that Zhang Haotian and Su He discovered some clues about the boss behind the scenes, and the boss behind the scenes began to produce all kinds of evidence that Su He was the serial murderer.


    Chen Fei was really amazing. The progress was amazing. So much could be done in just half a month. If they didn¡¯t make too many mistakes, it was estimated that the work could be finished within two months.


    But it may also be because the scenes that were being filmed were still relatively simple. When the scenes that involve action fighting and the like started, it was estimated that the progress would slow down.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s memory was not bad, and she could recite lines quite quickly. In fact, the main problem with her previous bad acting was that the lines in the scenes were either too exaggerated or not emotional.


    Later, Ye Kehuan pulled out the script for another film. The movie was called ¡°The Most Beautiful You I Can¡¯t Reach¡±. It mainly told the story of a beautiful girl named Lu Jiayi who became disabled by an accident one day. With the help of a doctor named Wu Qiyun, she walked out of her haze. The story was about pursuing light and warmth, and at the same time, told the story of a gloomy male protagonist named Yu Junyi who was healed by her smile after meeting the female protagonist, and the two finally got married.


    The role that Ye Kehuan wanted to play was exactly the psychologist Wu Qiyun. In fact, she had a secret, that she was actually deep in the closet, and her family was always putting pressure on her to go on blind dates. She even decided to go, and finally met a sweet and lovely girl, Xu Qiao, and finally bravely became herself.


    When Ye Kehuan accepted the script, she never expected that she would become the same way so quickly.


    Speaking of which, this drama not only portrays love beautifully, but also has a lot of positive energy. Although the director is not well-known, and even has few qualifications, I¡¯m still looking forward to it.


    After reading the script for a while, Ye Kehuan raised her head again and looked thoughtfully at the TV opposite her.


    Those things that happened that day, like movie scenes, spread out in her mind one by one. At that time, her mobile phone suddenly reminded her that Jiang Laien had posted something, so Ye Kehuan picked up her mobile phone to unlock it and clicked in.


    She saw the content that Jiang Laien had just posted: ¡°I really overestimated myself, it¡¯s so hard to cut. Next time I¡¯ll buy the cut ones, regardless of whether they are new or fresh.¡±


    The picture was a pineapple that had been quartered by a knife.


    This guy with handicapped hands, even though she can¡¯t even cut apples well, she still dares to challenge a pineapple? Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help smiling. Later, Ye Kehuan remembered something. She squeezed her phone again, raised her eyes, fastened the belt of her bathrobe, turned over and got out of bed and went out.


    Ye Kehuan stood before Jiang Laien¡¯s door, raised her hand and knocked on it: ¡°It¡¯s me.¡±


    In the next second, the door was opened, and Jiang Laien, wearing a beige suspender nightdress, appeared in front of her.


    Her hair hadn¡¯t been completely dried, and it hung on her shoulders and chest, giving her a unique charm, and the fabric of her clothes was soft and skin-friendly, and it made her skin soft and creamy.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes fell on her and it was hard for her to move them away, like they were glued in place.


    Jiang Laien had been watched by Ye Kehuan for a long time, and her earlobes were a little hot, so she held onto the door fame and asked softly: ¡°Is that enough?¡±


    ¡°Not enough.¡± Ye Kehuan said as she approached her.


    Jiang Laien released the door, wrapped one arm around her waist, and lightly held her hair in the other. She stepped back, only feeling that the future covered in front of her made her heart severely palpitate.


    ¡°It¡¯s so late, are you¡­ What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien held her temple.


    ¡°Can¡¯t I visit without worries?¡± Ye Kehuan closed the door and looked at her sideways. 1


    ¡°I didn¡¯t mean that.¡± Jiang Laien suddenly looked up.


    ¡°Could it be that you are afraid of me getting physical with you?¡± Ye Kehuan said, holding the corner of her lips.


    ¡°What?¡± Jiang Laien glanced at her, turned around, and walked to the small kitchen next to the door. Holding the pineapple on the cutting board, she picked up the knife, ready to cut.


    But at that time, her hand was held by Ye Kehuan. Obviously that touch was very simple, but Jiang Laien felt that she was electrocuted, and some small bumps gradually appeared on her body.


    ¡°I¡¯ll cut it for you.¡± Ye Kehuan stood beside her and said softly.


    After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she drew the knife out of her hand, picked up the pineapple and squeezed it lightly, peeled off the skin very deftly, cut out the barbs, broke it into four petals, and started slicing.


    Jiang Laien leaned aside and looked at her slender, white, and well-knotted hands, and then looked at her delicate profile. She only thought that Ye Kehuan¡¯s appearance right then was extraordinarily sexy.


    Suddenly, Jiang Laien remembered the dazzling kiss. She couldn¡¯t hold back the thought. She just felt that she had started to overheat from within, but it didn¡¯t dissipate. Could it be that this is the legendary estrus? Facing someone who is not interested in you?


    Jiang Laien hurriedly shook her head, trying to get rid of all those terrible thoughts.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Where is it uncomfortable?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Nothing.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head and tried to smile as perfectly as usual.


    ¡°That¡¯s good. This one has been cut.¡± Ye Kehuan put down the knife and poured the pineapple into the glass bowl next to it.


    The pineapple cut by Ye Kehuan was really beautiful, with well-proportioned thickness, and it was not inferior to those cut by professionals.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Jiang Laien took the glass bowl, put a small steel fork in the bowl, turned around and sat down on the sofa, and put the bowl of pineapple on the coffee table.


    ¡°With our relationship, do you have to say thank you?¡± Ye Kehuan followed her, took a lazy step, sat down beside her, and looked at the coffee table. In addition to the pineapple, there was a small cup of sesame paste.


    ¡°If you don¡¯t like it, then I won¡¯t talk about it in the future.¡± After Ye Kehuan sat down, Jiang Laien deliberately sat a little farther away from her, pulling out a safe distance to avoid falling into her own desires.


    Ye Kehuan frowned when she noticed her move.


    Afterwards, Jiang Laien turned her head and asked: ¡°When are you going to the set of that romance movie?¡±


    Ye Kehuan clasped her hands and thought: ¡°This Saturday.¡±


    ¡°Where are you shooting it?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    She secretly hoped that Ye Kehuan would not be too far away from her. There was probably no cure for her illness. She always hoped that Ye Kehuan would be within eyesight, so she would feel more at ease. Even if she didn¡¯t like her back.


    ¡°Zhuangshi.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her.


    ¡°That¡¯s okay, it¡¯s pretty close, it can be reached by high speed rail in an hour and a half. It doesn¡¯t need to be too hard.¡± Jiang Laien had been there, and she was familiar with it, and she couldn¡¯t help but relax.


    ¡°Yeah, otherwise it would be too much trouble to run between two crews.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    Jiang Laien nodded and asked, ¡°What, are you confident in getting a breakthrough?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, anyway, I¡¯ll take my time.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head.


    ¡°Then, do you want me and you¡­¡± Jiang Laien frowned slightly. In fact, Chen Lulu was right. Ye Kehuan¡¯s emotional scenes were indeed immature, which always made people feel that they lacked a trace of spirituality, and her acting skills were superficial, and she needed to be taught.


    However, emotional dramas were very sensitive, and Jiang Laien was afraid that she would accidentally touch a strange switch, causing herself to sink deeper.


    ¡°Do you want to¡­¡± Jiang Laien hesitated.


    ¡°Do you want to say, do you want me to act with you, and then you can give me pointers?¡± Ye Kehuan said something for her.


    Jiang Laien turned the pineapple with a small fork: ¡°Well, if you can trust me.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her. After thinking for a while, she curled her lips and smiled: ¡°There are indeed some places I want to ask you.¡±


    ¡°Um¡­ Okay, but it¡¯s too late today. Find a time to come out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and then you can talk about your doubts, okay?¡± Jiang Laien tilted her head and looked at her.


    ¡°Good.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°Then, did you make a special trip to cut the pineapple for me today?¡± Jiang Laien forked a piece of pineapple and handed it to Ye Kehuan.


    However, Ye Kehuan did not take it, but directly, tilted her head and bit down: ¡°Came to see if you can?¡±


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t dare to look at her, turning her head, and took a sip of sesame seeds, ¡°Look at me? See what I did.¡±


    ¡°Did I scare you today?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her head and asked.


    ¡°What are you talking about?¡± Jiang Laien smiled as if she was sitting on pins and needles.


    ¡°After I kissed you, you didn¡¯t look okay, and you kept trembling,¡± Ye Kehuan put her hand on her lips, ¡°So, I was thinking, are you scared of me or what.¡±


    After Jiang Laien heard her words, her mind exploded again. It was not because of fear, on the contrary, it was a physiological reaction. That¡¯s why I went to the bathroom.


    ¡°Where, how is that possible? The shivering was just because I felt cold today. Besides, I am not¡­¡± Jiang Laien choked up when she said that.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her firmly.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t I respond to you too?¡± Jiang Laien squeezed the small steel fork hard. ¡°What¡¯s more, if I didn¡¯t want to, then how could I let you in? No, not in¡­¡±


    The more Jiang Laien said, the more she wanted to bite off her tongue, and the more she said, the more dirty she felt, so she finally turned her head away.


    After looking at her for a while, Ye Kehuan leaned over again, pinched her chin, and turned her face to her side.


    Jiang Laien hadn¡¯t expected Ye Kehuan to behave like that, and didn¡¯t know what she was thinking, the cells all over her body becoming agitated.


    After that, Ye Kehuan continued to approach her, staring down at her lips, only to feel that hers became dry again: ¡°In fact, there is one thing I haven¡¯t said.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Jiang Laien squeezed her hand. On the one hand, Ye Kehuan¡¯s appearance and behavior at that moment were extremely ambiguous, scratching her heart directly. On the other hand, she always remembered that Ye Kehuan said that she would not like her.


    ¡°When I was in Morikawa, once I was drunk and you took me back, and then I had a dream that night.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her, and finally spoke out her absurd dream. ¡°In my dream, you took the initiative to kiss me and asked me if I liked it.¡±


    She wanted to know how Jiang Laien would react if she knew that she had that kind of dream about her.


    When Jiang Laien listened, her brain suddenly went blank. What did Ye Kehuan mean? Did she realize that she liked her, and realized that the so-called ¡°dream¡± was actually not a dream, but a real occurrence, so she kept digging for the answer in a roundabout way?


    With her mouth slightly opened, Jiang Laien lowered her eyes. After a long time, she said: ¡°Since it was a dream, you can¡¯t take it seriously.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she moved closer to her. In an instant, the two broke through the safe distance again. Their breaths were intertwined, and sparks seemed to burst in the air.


    Jiang Laien gulped, staring at Ye Kehuan, and opened her mouth slightly: ¡°What do you want to do¡­¡±


    ¡°What do you think I want to do?¡± Ye Kehuan looked into her eyes and spoke in a low voice.


    The author has something to say: Hum, don¡¯t forget to feed the comments to add motivation to me~ The data is not good at all, the only fun is to read the comments.


    TL/N


    1 - This is a reference to a saying, that no one visits a temple without a reason. If you don''t have worries, then why would you go to a temple to pray?

 CH 41

    ¡°Huh?¡± the light in the room was snow-white, and Jiang Laien¡¯s skin was as delicate as a flower, white as porcelain, and her eyes were smart and beautiful. Ye Kehuan looked down at her moist lips, and her throat became more and more blocked.


    At that time, Jiang Laien¡¯s forearm supported her on the sofa was slightly numb, and if she accidentally failed to hold it, she could not help but fall backward. Under the guidance of her violently beating heart, she was short of breath, and her whole body trembled slightly. She opened her eyes and looked at Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°I just wanted to say that something is stuck on the corner of your mouth.¡± Ye Kehuan gently scraped a little sesame paste on the corner of her lips with her fingertips. However, besides that, she really wanted to do something to Jiang Laien. Moreover, the idea had been fermenting for several months, but she had been suppressing it all the time to avoid being seen by Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien held her breath and let out her breath again. It turned out to be that. Afterwards, Jiang Laien sat up straight, ready to reach out for a tissue: ¡°Sorry¡­¡±


    However, just as Jiang Laien stretched out her hand, Ye Kehuan had already pulled out a tissue and placed it in front of her.


    Jiang Laien paused for a while, took it into her hand, her eyes downcast, and then quickly looked up: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    She thought Ye Kehuan was interested in her, but it turned out she thought too much.


    Why was it always like that, she didn¡¯t know what she was still expecting. After having known each other for so many years, if she wanted her to fall in love with her, it would have happened a long time ago. Why would she wait until then?


    Thinking of that, Jiang Laien suddenly wanted to laugh, and suddenly wanted to slap herself away. Enough, really enough, since you are determined to only be friends with her, then you shouldn¡¯t be tempted by her anymore.


    Moreover, even if others didn¡¯t know Ye Kehuan, wasn¡¯t she clear enough? Hadn¡¯t the illusion of Ye Kehuan imagined by her been enough over the years?


    For example, when I was in school, I said that I didn¡¯t want to get married in the future. I wanted to be with her for a lifetime, and then I went and fell in love with her. After our performance at the New Year¡¯s Day party, Ye Kehuan put her arms around me and said, ¡°You look so good, like a peach--can I taste you?¡±, and after watching a **** movie secretly, she went downstairs and suddenly leaned in and said ¡°I suddenly discovered that your mouth is the legendary type suitable for kissing¡±.


    In the end, it was just a straight girl joking, and there was really only her own longing, and in the enter her longing heart was also lost there.


    After the scene of the wolf coming has been repeated so much, as long as you are not stupid, you should be immune and wake up, so why can¡¯t you remember that? I also keep feeling that she has something for me. She is simply a straight girl who ran away and is unaware of homosexuality. At most, she doesn¡¯t reject it.


    As for the fact that she was more constrained towards her than some time ago, maybe it was just because they had been separated for so long, plus there had been conflicts between them before, so she was that way. Now that she was familiar with her again, she had become so flirty again. There was no need to believe what Chen Lulu said about CP feelings and matching.


    Jiang Laien felt that her speculation was very reasonable.


    Vigorously scrubbing the mess of her mind, Jiang Laien reached out and picked up a piece of pineapple and chewed it in her mouth.


    Ye Kehuan sat on the side and observed her expression. After a while, she picked up the previous question: ¡°But, what did you think I wanted to do?¡±


    As soon as Ye Kehuan asked that, Jiang Laien was choked by the juice of the pineapple, coughing ceaselessly, and even raised her hand to hammer her chest several times.


    ¡°What, I didn¡¯t think you wanted to do anything.¡± Jiang Laien didn¡¯t expect Ye Kehuan to chase after that event and panicked, squeezing her small steel fork.


    ¡°Then why would you ask me like that?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze kept condensing on her, as if to bore a whole through her.


    Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze, Jiang Laien only felt that her whole body was beginning to get hot, and she kept feeling she was exposed in front of her at that moment.


    ¡°Seriously, your appearance just now was really familiar.¡± Ye Kehuan retracted her gaze, turned her head, and smiled lightly. Thinking about it carefully, she realized she had actually seen it many times before.


    ¡°Familiar with what¡­¡± Jiang Laien failed to react quickly, not knowing what she was thinking about.


    ¡°Well, probably today you suddenly reminded me of when we went to school.¡± Ye Kehuan clasped her hands and frowned slightly, thinking about the past.


    ¡°I don¡¯t know what you are talking about.¡± Jiang Laien tightly gripped the tissue in the palm of her hand. She was indeed like a frightened rabbit at that moment. Because she didn¡¯t know why Ye Kehuan wanted to mention that. Was it because Ye Kehuan noticed her strangeness and wanted to tear off her disguise?


    ¡°It was when we were in school,¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips raised slightly, ¡°Remember, we were eager to be fresh, so we went to play with a friend who lived in the country.¡±


    That friend¡¯s house didn¡¯t have many attractions, let alone any food, just because her father was a fruit farmer and had an orchard nearby, they went to pick peaches with their friend without saying a word.


    They were helplessly sighing that there was a documentary feeling there. The country life was so boring, but in the next second, they were caught off guard by pouring rain falling from the sky.


    When they ran back to the house in an embarrassing manner, their bodies were already wet, and there was even dirt on the top of their pants and shoe soles. After getting wet, it was definitely uncomfortable to take a bath, but it took too long and was too troublesome to wash one by one, so they decided to go in and wash two by two.


    Because of their good friendship, it was natural that Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were automatically divided into one group.


    However, just before the first group came out, Ye Kehuan took the clothes from her friend and took Jiang Laien into the bathroom to take a bath, but Jiang Laien suddenly escaped awkwardly and asked Ye Kehuan to wash first. She waited a while to wash, and then went out without speaking.


    In fact, Ye Kehuan still minded. Because Jiang Laien should not have been like that with her. For that reason, Ye Kehuan was actually unhappy for a while.


    ¡°You, just now, look like you who didn¡¯t dare to take a bath with me at that time, like a rabbit that was startled by the gunshots of a hunter.¡± Ye Kehuan said, leaning towards her again.


    The distance between the two people narrowed again, and the temperature continued to rise in an instant.


    ¡°What rabbits and not rabbits¡­ where are they?¡± Jiang Laien certainly remembered what she spoke about, but could only hurriedly deny it.


    ¡°Besides, what is very similar to before is that every time I get closer to you, you start to become awkward. But when you are with other people, you don¡¯t look like this. What, why?¡± Ye Kehuan leaned close to her cheek, ¡°Why is this, Laien, could it be said, what are you afraid of? Or, what are you nervous about?¡±


    What is the hidden meaning of Ye Kehuan¡¯s words? Is she doubting something? Suddenly, Jiang Laien was speechless, but stared at her with her eyes wide open. She couldn¡¯t tell Ye Kehuan that she was just nervous, and she was still looking forward to what she might do to her.


    Seeing that she was not talking anymore, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand and lifted the strands of hair that had rolled down from her ears.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s brain was all messed up by then, and she felt that she was broken, even though Ye Kehuan just stretched out her hand to help her fix her hair, her whole body reacted to it, and her brain was about to burst with some unspeakable scenes. How did she achieve such a desire?


    Facing Jiang Laien¡¯s reaction, Ye Kehuan remembered what Chen Lulu had said, and the reminiscences that she had sorted out and hadn¡¯t noticed before, and gradually began to feel that what Chen Lulu said might be correct.


    Otherwise, why would Jiang Laien have the best relationship with her, but she could only be with others but she dared not make too much close physical contact with her? It was impossible for her to hate her alone. If she hated her, then why didn¡¯t she have to defend herself everywhere, and she didn¡¯t have to stick to her all the time. Who would treat someone they hated like that?


    Also, she said that she was jealous of Du Mingan¡­ Was it really just the kind of possessiveness towards her friends who spent less time with her? Was it possible that she was a little interested in her at that time?


    Also, when I accompanied her on a blind date, when she asked in the bathroom if I liked her, was that also a temptation? And she was so drunk at the barbecue restaurant¡­ Was it really because of Zhou Yue?


    Ye Kehuan felt like Sherlock Holmes then. In their history of friendship, she had dug out almost every detail and speculated deeply.


    The most important thing was that during the kiss at KTV¡­ Jiang Laien was obviously very involved, her body even became a little limp, and she fell into her arms uncontrollably. Therefore, Ye Kehuan still felt something. Other things might have been guesswork, but what was exposed by the kiss was hard to conceal.


    Jiang Laien started at her in front of her, and became dumb.


    ¡°Where am I nervous?¡± Jiang Laien denied in a panic.


    Ye Kehuan still looked at her calmly, obviously not convinced: ¡°You aren¡¯t?¡±


    Jiang Laien raised her eyes suddenly, completely unable to guess what Ye Kehuan was thinking. After all, when she was in school, she often thought she had guessed correctly, but it turned out to be wrong. She always felt that Ye Kehuan liked her, but it turned out otherwise.


    Thinking of that, Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°No.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her calmly, and after a while, she nodded.


    ¡°Then why¡­¡± After a moment, Ye Kehuan picked up a strand of her hair, ¡°Why is it that I can¡¯t get in close contact with you often? Why is it that I am so special? Huh?¡±


    After Jiang Laien listened, she only felt that she was drowning in deep water, and she might suffocate and die at any time. Do you have to ask questions like this?


    ¡°You are so powerful, so able to conceal your emotions, so powerful that you are in the entertainment circle. For years, people from the outside world have never been able to touch your true appearance and true character, but in the end you kissed me. Why are you sometimes so embarrassed and nervous? I really want to know.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s question could be described as pressing hard.


    No one knew Jiang Laien better than her.


    Jiang Laien looked at her blankly, her heart beating uncontrollably, but she still didn¡¯t know how to explain it.


    In the end, Jiang Laien gulped, and like a dead duck raised her chin stiffly: ¡°Who said that?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head slightly.


    Jiang Laien looked at the coffee table, but her lower lip, then let it go, and smiled reluctantly: ¡°Who said I didn¡¯t dare to have close contact with you? Don¡¯t we hold hands all the time?¡±


    ¡°Am I talking about arm-in-arm?¡± Ye Kehuan looked down at her hands, what was holding hands, ¡°I mean, for example, when kissing. Why were you so nervous? Do you also do this when you are in a kiss scene with others? Or is it only with me?¡±


    Jiang Laien felt like she was almost out of breath when she was forced to answer, and finally frowned: ¡°I¡¯m not nervous¡­¡±


    ¡°I felt it.¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked into her eyes. She had to say that Jiang Laien looked quite nervous at the moment.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s pink lips were lightly opened, and then she chuckled with a sullen heart, stood up, and walked to the side of the cabinet and picked up a small ornament and played with it: ¡°Why can I say, do you want me to kiss you to prove that I am not nervous?¡±


    After saying that, Jiang Laien suddenly felt as if she had been emptied of all her strength, and a layer of fine sweat was covering the palms of her hands. She was so nervous that she didn¡¯t know what to do, but she kept playing with the small ornament.


    What mess was she talking about? Wasn¡¯t she pushing herself into a pit? Jiang Laien really suspected that she was mentally retarded.


    After Ye Kehuan heard what she said, her eyes instantly became wide.


    After a moment, Ye Kehuan put down her stretched legs, squeezed her hands loosely in front of her, and opened her mouth slightly: ¡°Okay.¡±


    The moment Ye Kehuan agreed, Jiang Laien choked and squeezed her fist. After the palm of her hand stung uncontrollably from the small ornament, she finally released it, looked at Ye Kehuan, and stroked it again. Haa, I just feel that I¡¯m covered with sweat all over, there is no way to calm down!


    ¡°What?¡± Seeing her standing next to the TV cabinet, Ye Kehuan also stood up, walked around the coffee table, and walked towards her.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± Jiang Laien turned around as she spoke, and found that Ye Kehuan was already standing in front of her.


    Ye Kehuan was originally taller than her, and Jiang Laien didn¡¯t wear high heels as she wasn¡¯t going out. The height difference between the two of them caused Ye Kehuan to bring her a sense of oppression.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t speak either, just watched her quietly. She had to say that Jiang Laien looked really weird. How could she not notice it before? In addition, Jiang Laien looked really small, like a cute cat, which made her want to hold her in her arms and pet her.


    Under her gaze, Jiang Laien finally decided to leave everything alone. After throwing the small ornament aside, she took the initiative to take a step towards Ye Kehuan: ¡°Kiss, right.¡±


    Ye Kehuan still didn¡¯t speak, but there was a trace of unspeakable emotion in her eyes.


    ¡°Isn¡¯t it just kissing?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien, who was doing her mental preparations, took a step forward after talking to herself and stretched out her hand to hook Ye Kehuan¡¯s neck.


    Ye Kehuan lowered her head, but still kept looking at Jiang Laien with a deep gaze, and at the same time, she secretly carried a trace of different feelings.


    For a while, Jiang Laien only felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable atmosphere around her. Under such an atmosphere, her earlobes gradually became hot, and she did not dare to meet her eyes.


    ¡°Laien¡­¡± Ye Kehuan lowered her eyes to look at her plump pink lips, and then raised her eyes to look at her smart and moist eyes, her throat becoming hotter and hotter.


    Afterwards, Jiang Laien leaned close to Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips. But just when she was about to touch her, Jiang Laien came to a halt. Her heart began to dance again uncontrollably, causing her to close her eyes involuntarily and swing her head.


    ¡°What,¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her, raised her hand and held her chin, and said in a low voice, ¡°You can¡¯t do it because you¡¯re too nervous?¡±


    ¡°Nonsense!¡± After Jiang Laien finished speaking, she leaned forward and kissed Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips in an instant.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyelashes trembled a little, and she closed her eyes, only to feel that certain cells deep in her body began to beat relentlessly. She liked Jiang Laien¡¯s breath; that kind of breath was particularly charming, and once she felt it, she only wanted to get more.


    At the moment when the corners of their lips touched, at the moment when Jiang Laien felt the scorching breath of Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien¡¯s brain also became blank for an instant. She suddenly couldn¡¯t tell where she was anymore, but felt that the lights in the room had become extraordinarily dazzling, making her unable to open her eyes. The touch on her lips made her feel like she was in a dream. Her brain also seemed to be congested, as it was about to explode. The feeling of being unable to breathe came again, leaving her at a loss.


    After regaining consciousness, Jiang Laien hurriedly left Ye Kehuan without staying too long, breathing heavily with her lips open. It was terrible. If it went on, she would never be able to free herself from the world of Ye Kehuan.


    After her breathing became stable, Jiang Laien panicked and released her again.


    ¡°What?¡± But at that moment, Ye Kehuan suddenly grasped Jiang Laien¡¯s loose right wrist.


    ¡°Nothing¡­¡± Jiang Laien hurriedly shook her head.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her for a long while, then quickly pulled her closer to her, and stretched out her hand to embrace her thin waist.


    Jiang Laien immediately raised her head to look at her, and gently twisted her wrist: ¡°Kehuan, you¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, bowed her head slightly, and moved closer to the tip of her nose: ¡°Is that it?¡±


    The aura spreading over from the other party made Jiang Laien shrink back and whisper softly: ¡°Is this not enough?¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows slightly as she listened to her slightly trembling voice, and then suddenly squeezed her delicate body a little bit into her arms, and said softly beside her ear: ¡°Not enough.¡±


    The author has something to say: Jiang Laien: ?!

 CH 42

    The warm breath spread to her ears, bringing out a trace of itchiness, and Jiang Laien¡¯s skin couldn¡¯t help but break out in goosebumps. Jiang Laien only felt a little intolerable, turning her head to look at her: ¡°Then what do you¡­ want?¡±


    Ye Kehuan pulled away from her ear a little, and then looked at her closely.


    With Ye Kehuan¡¯s close-up teasing, Jiang Laien once again felt that she was about to drown in her world, but in the end she put her hand on her shoulder: ¡°Kehuan¡­¡±


    Due to the tension of her nervous system, Jiang Laien found that she had some difficulties even speaking. In fact, she didn¡¯t fully understand what kind of state she was in then, and she clearly told herself to be steady, but she was inexplicably looking forward to something that could happen with Ye Kehuan. For example, something like the KTV. She didn¡¯t know what kind thoughts were racing through her mind. In short, she felt that she was a little addicted to the things that Ye Kehuan brought.


    Ye Kehuan heard the words, still looking at the person in front of her motionlessly, only feeling that her appearance was so beautiful, as if she had stepped out of a painting, making her want to embrace it, imprison her to her side, and let only belong to her. Thinking about that, Ye Kehuan pulled down the hand against her shoulder.


    Jiang Laien let out a ¡°hey¡±, and once again stretched out her hand to press against her shoulder, forcibly held her mind, forcing herself not to fall into Ye Kehuan¡¯s net, and raised her eyes and said softly, ¡°I am a little sleepy today. And at four we need to get up and go to the crew to put on makeup or something.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she was silent for a moment, tasting the so-called ¡°sleepy¡± with a certain degree of scrutiny. But considering that it was indeed late then, and that she would get up very early the next day, she still smiled and retracted her hand: ¡°Then time is indeed late. Okay, then you can rest early.¡±


    ¡°That,¡± Jiang Laien was finally relieved, and looked up at her, ¡°Good night.¡±


    ¡°Well, good night.¡± Ye Kehuan adjusted the collar of her pajamas and nodded with a smile.


    Jiang Laien looked at her smile, feeling that the smile was not the same as before. To be precise, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t look much the same that night as before, and now Ye Kehuan seemed to have become even more exciting. That kind of difference was like before and after the awakening of card characters obtained while playing a game. Or was it because she had kissed her so actively, so she always over-interpreted her every move and thought about it?


    After that, Ye Kehuan opened the door and walked out.


    Seeing the door closed, Jiang Laien¡¯s tense nerves finally relaxed, and then she sat on the bed and sorted her thoughts. It was horrible, I almost ruined my work and was almost led by Ye Kehuan to elope. After a while, Jiang Laien began to get nervous again. Ye Kehuan¡¯s actions that night were really abnormal. Could it be that her little secret had been discovered, so she was testing?


    So, what would she do if she knew that I really liked her? Thinking of that, Jiang Laien¡¯s back chilled.


    After Ye Kehuan walked out and gently closed the door, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and she let out a deep sigh. After standing in front of Jiang Laien¡¯s door for a long time, Ye Kehuan walked towards her room. After putting the script on the bed on the bedside table, Ye Kehuan turned over and lay down on her bed, and began to think about what Jiang Laien¡¯s various expressions and behaviors represented during that day.


    Saying that she was going to sleep or something, it was a lie in all likelihood. Jiang Laien didn¡¯t look like she was sleepy, she should have just wanted to interrupt everything.


    But why should it be interrupted? It couldn¡¯t be that she hated her, there was no reason. Then why was she so nervous like that? If she likes her, why would she stop it? But if she didn¡¯t like her, she didn¡¯t have to react like that when facing her provocation. On the contrary, if she was not interested in her, she should be unmoved.


    Ye Kehuan was a little confused there. She used all the skills used to figure out a character¡¯s psychology while filming to ponder the matter. She analyzed other places very reasonably, but she didn¡¯t understand why Jiang Laien interrupted her. If she liked her, then why would she do it like that?


    Ye Kehuan was not good at thinking about those kinds of things. What she had to think about every day was what is more delicious, what games are more fun, and so on. Suddenly she fell into an emotional vortex, just thinking that her head was about to explode.


    Picking up the phone, Ye Kehuan flicked Jiang Laien¡¯s Weibo again, and pulled out photos of actresses such as Jiang Laien and Qi Li. Among them were photos of Qi Li kissing her on the cheek and she was smiling very happily, and there were also photos of her generously holding Qi Li¡¯s shoulders.


    Ye Kehuan frowned slightly, and then opened an album in her QQ space that only she could see. In the album, there were almost a hundred old photos of herself and Jiang Laien.


    After switching to a more comfortable posture, Ye Kehuan opened the photos one by one from back to front.


    Looking at them, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh.


    ¡°This was taken by her when she was a freshman in high school¡­¡± Ye Kehuan muttered to herself after opening a photo.


    Jiang Laien in the photo was quite stocky, with a lot of flesh on her body, wearing a super long loose T-shirt and jeans, wearing a pair of sandals on her feet, holding a bottle of mineral water in her hands, very cute, but frowning. No, she didn¡¯t seem to be very happy.


    Why are you unhappy? Ye Kehuan magnified Jiang Laien¡¯s face, tilted her head, and stared at the center of her eyebrows. Ah, it seemed that it was because of Jiang Laien that day.


    Then, Ye Kehuan continued to scroll, only to see that Jiang Laien in every photo was getting more and more beautiful, her figure was smaller than before, and her curves became exquisite, but her expression was always awkward. For example, in a photo taken at Ye Kehuan¡¯s birthday party. It was crazy that day. When taking pictures, several girls embraced Ye Kehuan and took very intimate pictures with her, but Jiang Laien stood far away with a frown, reaching out and shouting with a V.


    Ye Kehuan still remembered that after the party that day, Jiang Laien¡¯s aura also became weird.


    However, Ye Kehuan at the time didn¡¯t know why she was weird, only that she became normal again after being bored for several days.


    ¡°Why are you unhappy?¡± Ye Kehuan squeezed her chin and looked at the phone screen, recalling what happened that day.


    ¡°Is it because I told her that I had received an anonymous love letter?¡± Ye Kehuan rubbed her lips with her hand. Yes, it was a day just for fun, and if something happened, that would probably be the only thing.


    She was very new to receiving love letters at that time. After all, although she thought she was good-looking, she had beaten up a lot of boys to establish her role as the big sister, and many boys were afraid of her, so she never thought about them. Even then, some people would like that, so they ran to Jiang Laien with love letters in a mysterious way.


    As a result, Jiang Laien asked her: ¡°Are you very happy?¡±


    After listening, she nodded without thinking: ¡°I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s not the type I like. Who could it be?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien turned around and went to play with Chen Lulu and the others.


    Is it because of this reason? Ye Kehuan raised her hands and rubbed her temples. Could it be that she liked her at that time, and then when she saw that she was very happy to receive a love letter, she became angry and started a cold war? After all, besides that, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t find out what was the precipitating factor of Jiang Laien¡¯s cold war.


    ¡°I¡¯m very angry but I won¡¯t say¡± was very characteristic of Jiang Laien. That characteristic was even more manifested during the interaction between her and Du Mingan. No matter how she looked at it, she should like her¡­ Then why would she refuse to kiss her¡­


    However, no matter what, no matter what, I must get her.


    Looking and thinking, Ye Kehuan gradually fell asleep with her mobile phone.


    On the other side, Jiang Laien lay on the bed, but she still did not fall asleep. She still remembered that Ye Kehuan once received an anonymous love letter. Ye Kehuan was very happy at first, but she was not happy about it. She was sad for several days and would cry into her blanket almost every night. She cried silently there, but Ye Kehuan suddenly changed her face later. She said that the writer of the love letter had been rejected.


    At that time, I asked her if she didn¡¯t talk to people because she wanted to focus on learning. Ye Kehuan shook her head and told me that it was because she found herself curiously tracking down the person who wrote the love letter through various clues. She didn¡¯t have feelings for him, so she didn¡¯t consider it. The reason why she sent people away with a clear attitude was to prevent people from wasting feelings on her.


    At that time, Jiang Laien was secretly happy about it for a while, but now, with the blessing of that matter, Jiang Laien was even more distraught.


    Thinking about that, Jiang Laien could help but clutch her arms and curl up.


    Four o¡¯clock in the morning.


    After Ye Kehuan woke up under the influence of her alarm, she went into the bathroom to wash up quickly, and then went out.


    When she went out, Jiang Laien happened to be coming out too. Ye Kehuan saw her, walked to her side, smiled and said, ¡°Hi.¡±


    Jiang Laien, who had just finished closing the door, was taken aback, turning her head and looking at her. Seeing Ye Kehuan standing loosely and watching her, she couldn¡¯t help her face getting hot and raising her hand to lift a strand of hair: ¡°Good morning.¡±


    ¡°It seems to be colder today than before.¡± Ye Kehuan pulled her backpack over her shoulder, and smiled and stepped forward.


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Jiang Laien smiled, ¡°I don¡¯t feel much in the room, but I feel like I¡¯ll be freezing all over once I go out.¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her lips, nodded, and then turned her head to look at her: ¡°Did you sleep well last night?¡±


    ¡°Hey?¡± Jiang Laien was dumbfounded for a moment.


    ¡°You have a lot of red blood in your eyes. It looks like you haven¡¯t slept well. Why, something on your mind?¡± After leaving the hotel, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her again.


    ¡°Ah, it¡¯s nothing, maybe it¡¯s because¡­¡± Jiang Laien coughed, ¡°Maybe it was because last night, before going to bed, I saw a very scary little story, so I didn¡¯t sleep well.¡±


    In fact, the fact was that she was there last night thinking about Ye Kehuan, so she couldn¡¯t sleep well.


    ¡°Pay attention to your body.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her.


    ¡°I will.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, and then blew into her exposed hands.


    ¡°Stupid.¡± At that moment, Ye Kehuan whispered a word.


    ¡°What about you, stupid?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her swiftly.


    ¡°Of course I mean you, otherwise who else could I mean?¡± Ye Kehuan looked ahead.


    ¡°I, why am I stupid?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s originally round eyes were now even more round, and they looked a bit cute.


    ¡°You¡¯re obviously afraid of the cold, but you never wear gloves and dress so thinly. Aren¡¯t you a fool?¡± Ye Kehuan really couldn¡¯t understand her sometimes.


    ¡°I couldn¡¯t find my gloves, and then I never had time to buy new ones¡­¡± Jiang Laien raised her hand and rubbed her earlobe.


    ¡°Remember to call Yingying to buy some today.¡± Ye Kehuan took a look at her, then took off her gloves and handed them to her, ¡°For now, I will give you mine first.¡±


    ¡°No, you can wear them yourself. You are also cold¡­¡± Jiang Laien refused.


    ¡°Be obedient, stretch out your hand.¡± Ye Kehuan stood still, raising a hand to hang it in the air.


    At four o¡¯clock in the morning, the city was still silent, not waking up at all. The halo of the street lamp was projected on Ye Kehuan, outlining her in a layer of velvety light, revealing an irresistible feeling.


    Jiang Laien gulped twice, and then she stretched out her hand.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her for a moment, held her slender hand, and frowned: ¡°It¡¯s so cold, don¡¯t be like this in the future, don¡¯t you know?¡±


    ¡°Know¡­¡±


    However, before Jiang Laien finished her words, Ye Kehuan raised her hand. At the same time, Ye Kehuan lowered her head, breathed into the palm of her hand, and began to rub it--not lightly or roughly--with a very serious look.


    Jiang Laien opened her lips slightly, only to feel a warm current in her heart.


    Later, Ye Kehuan put the gloves on her carefully: ¡°You don¡¯t worry about yourself, but there are always people around you who worry about you.¡±


    Jiang Laien stretched out her hands and gently closed them on her chest, quietly feeling the remaining warmth of Ye Kehuan: ¡°You mean¡­ you?¡±


    ¡°What do you mean? Okay, let¡¯s go.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head, smiled, put her hands in her pockets, and continued to walk forward.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien smiled lightly, looked down for a moment, and the pair of gloves on her hands were not cute at all, as if the gloves were only used by black hands, and she couldn¡¯t help but smile knowingly. However, it was so warm. And her hands were warm too.


    After that, Jiang Laien took a step forward and followed Ye Kehuan¡¯s steps.


    When they arrived on the set, it was only about half past four, but everyone was already busy. Although the crew and the cast arrived on time as always, with the lengthening of the shooting time, the mental outlook of everyone had obviously deteriorated compared to when they first joined the crew. They were disheveled, with dark circles under eyes and messy hair. Their clothes hadn¡¯t been changed in a few days, looking like a refugee camp at first glance. That¡¯s how that line of work was; it doesn¡¯t matter if people¡¯s work and rest were too irregular, it consumed lots of energy, and it was very exhausting.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had a lot of scenes to be filmed that day. Although they were arranged in the morning and afternoon, and if it went well, they would not be filming in the evening, but in general, the workload was still quite large.


    In the morning, Ye Kehuan mainly filmed her scenes with Zhang Haotian, and then she realized that she really seemed to be stronger than before. In the past, when she was acting with Zhang Haotian, the scene would be more or less dictated by him, but now, she could clearly feel that she could rely on herself to embrace the subtle emotions of the role of Su He. She was performing very well, so there was no need to rely on anyone to motivate her.


    After filming the last scene in the morning and before going to lunch, Zhang Haotian couldn¡¯t help but smile and nod, looking at her: ¡°Little Ye, your growth rate is really fast, visible to the naked eye.¡±


    ¡°Thank you!¡± Ye Kehuan smiled modestly after listening.


    At the same time, Cheng Yan, who was not far away, pricked her ears instantly after hearing their conversation.


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to be humble, you should be praised for doing things beautifully. You are making rapid progress, acting very seriously, and being praised is completely deserved,¡± Zhang Haotian continued to laugh, ¡°You can even think that you were terrific in some performances. Come on, gold will always shine. I am optimistic about you.¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard that, she clenched her hand instantly. Is Zhang Haotian insulting me? The assistants I brought along when I first joined the team were indeed a bit too many, and their performance was not really good¡­ But Ye Kehuan is not the victim. This scheming girl who always pretends to be a white rabbit in front of me, sickening. If you are so good, why were you so terrible before?


    The more Cheng Yan thought about it, the further her heart dropped. Ye Kehuan robbed her of her show, not to mention, she also robbed her of her heroine role, and now, the whole crew liked her so much. Why?! What was there about her that was worthy of being liked? How was she better than Cheng Yan? Cheng Yan always felt that Ye Kehuan¡¯s fans were blind, but she did not expect that everyone on the crew was also blind--Ye Kehuan is just a black lotus, and they not understand this?!


    Why, why was she spending so much money on her personal relationships in the entertainment circle, but the rewards in the end were no better than a low-born buffalo who wore miscellaneous brands?


    However, fortunately, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien seemed to have split up two days before. So she had another chance. To be honest, without talking about flattering or not, in fact, she herself quite liked Jiang Laien. Before she stepped into the circle, her private Weibo had always followed Jiang Laien. Now that Ye Kehuan was offline from Jiang Laien¡¯s world, she felt she had to seize the opportunity.


    Thinking of that, Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help but cook her lips and called an assistant: ¡°Where is the lunch I asked you to prepare? Why haven¡¯t you delivered it by now?¡±


    After Ye Kehuan and Zhang Haotian finished chatting, she smiled and chatted with Chao Mingqing who was standing next to her, and then turned around and prepared to go to Jiang Laien for lunch. However, before Ye Kehuan approached Jiang Laien, she saw Cheng Yan carrying a large box and walked towards Jiang Laien, who had just walked out of the dressing room.


    Ye Kehuan stopped, put her hands in her pockets, and frowned slightly.


    ¡°Why, what is Cheng Yan doing? When did she play with Sister Laien? Didn¡¯t she always play and eat with Lu Yan?¡± Chao Mingqing stood next to Ye Kehuan, full of doubt.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Chao Mingqing: ¡°That ghost only knows, maybe no one has eaten with her today.¡±


    ¡°But she also used the small stove specially today. The only time she used that stove, and she went to see Sister Laien¡­ What is she thinking?¡± Chao Mingqing stroked her chin.


    Ye Kehuan frowned deeply: ¡°What else can I think about? She is tired of the crew¡¯s lunches, so she used the small stove to cook her own, what else, could she fall in love with Laien overnight?¡±


    ¡°Sister Kehuan, Big Sister Ye, Boss, I didn¡¯t mean that¡­¡± It was the first time in Chao Mingqing¡¯s memory that Ye Kehuan looked so ugly, and she was instantly scared. ¡°I just think that our relationship with Cheng Yan isn¡¯t very good. Are you still looking for Sister Laien to eat with you today?¡±


    Ye Kehuan let out a long sigh, then looked at her and smiled kindly: ¡°Okay, I know. Eat, of course, why not eat together?¡±


    Ye Kehuan sneered, ¡°Maybe I can still get some delicacies from the seas and mountains.¡±


    ¡°Then I won¡¯t go, I don¡¯t like her, I always remember how she bullied us in the last crew. I¡¯m going to eat with Yingying, but Sister Kehuan, call me if you need anything.¡± Chao Mingqing smiled, then ran away.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her back for a while, smiled, and shook her head. She walked towards Jiang Laien and Cheng Yan.


    When she walked not far from them, she saw Cheng Yan was talking to Jiang Laien: ¡°Sister Laien, you haven¡¯t eaten yet? Would you like to eat with me? Today my brother made some dishes for me, and then, it just so happens that these dishes should suit your appetite.¡± 1


    In fact, the food that Cheng Yan brought that day was specially brought by an assistant from the hotel. The reason why she didn¡¯t tell the truth was to avoid being looked down on for not being able to bear the hardship or something.


    However, after Jiang Laien removed her hair from her clothes, she smiled slightly: ¡°Then I would be embarrassed to eat. Your brother made it for you specially, so you should enjoy it slowly. I don¡¯t care for it.¡±


    After listening, Cheng Yan¡¯s face became stiff, and she hurriedly said: ¡°But the portion is so large that I can¡¯t eat it all alone. If you don¡¯t eat it, it will be wasted¡­¡±


    ¡°That makes sense.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled and stood beside them.


    ¡°Are you finished filming?¡± After seeing Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien turned around and looked at her and smiled.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, and then asked again, ¡°Did Yingying buy the gloves?¡±


    ¡°They¡¯re ready.¡± Jiang Laien thought of her appearance of wearing Ye Kehuan¡¯s gloves, and a warm feeling grew in her heart.


    ¡°Then keep them, and remember to wear them outside in the future. Don¡¯t freeze.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Cheng Yan stood by and watched the interaction between them, and instantly squeezed the three-layered food box in her hand. Shouldn¡¯t they have broken apart? Could it be that her intuition was wrong?


    Damn it, Ye Kehuan to the end¡­ Cheng Yan looked at Jiang Laien, then at Ye Kehuan, her heart suddenly becoming furious. If it wasn¡¯t because she was in a public place, she really wanted to smash the food box on the spot. Why was everyone like that, opposite attitudes towards her and Ye Kehuan?


    ¡°What are the dishes?¡± At that moment, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Cheng Yan.


    Cheng Yan looked at her face, only feeling that the anger in her chest had burned too much to be suppressed, but in the end she laughed, ¡°Yes?¡±


    ¡°Can you add me? You can¡¯t waste it with me here.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily.


    Cheng Yan really wanted to stab her with a knife at that time, but she still smiled: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Then wait a minute, sister Laien and I will go over and make some white rice.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at Ye Kehuan. She didn¡¯t know what Ye Kehuan was thinking. This Cheng Yan obviously wanted to hug her thighs. She had seen a lot of people like that.


    After the prep, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien returned to Cheng Yan and sat down.


    Sure enough, Cheng Yan¡¯s food box contained a lot of dishes, and it looked very rich. There were salads, vegetable stir-fried side dishes, steamed fish and sweet and sour pork ribs, and white sliced chicken, all of which Jiang Laien liked to eat. Ye Kehuan frowned slightly when she saw them. Cheng Yan really did a lot of homework, did she really have some thoughts about Jiang Laien?


    ¡°Your brother cooks so well?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien was holding a box of lunch, and after sweeping her eyes across the brightly colored dishes, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Cheng Yan.


    ¡°Ahaha, he just likes to toss these things,¡± Cheng Yan smiled, ¡°come, have a taste.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then clipped a chicken wing, and put it in Ye Kehuan¡¯s lunch box, ¡°Come on, a chicken wing you like.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at the chicken wing on the rice, and couldn¡¯t help touching the corners of her lips. She picked up a piece of fish belly and put it on Jiang Laien¡¯s rice: ¡°Here, some fish belly you like.¡±


    When Cheng Yan watched the interaction between them, she only felt that her throat was blocked. She couldn¡¯t swallow anymore, and she almost died of anger.


    After eating lunch, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked towards the trash can, preparing to throw away the lunch box.


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan suddenly asked, ¡°do you think Cheng Yan is pretty?¡±


    Jiang Laien was stunned: ¡°I¡¯m not too interested, I didn¡¯t pay too much attention.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, the corners of her mouth curled up: ¡°Great.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien blinked.


    ¡°I mean,¡± Ye Kehuan touched the tip of her nose, ¡°it¡¯s great to have such delicious food.¡±


    Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at her thoughtfully, only to see her smiling brightly. Are you really just saying that the food is delicious?


    Cheng Yan turned her head to look at their backs which had gone far away, and couldn¡¯t help but bite her lower lip. Then, she turned on her mobile phone, held it tightly, looked ahead, and chuckled.


    After eating, they barely rested. Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien worked hard to fix up their makeup and film their next scene. While applying makeup, Ye Kehuan stared at Weibo.


    She saw someone on her Weibo rushing to comment, ¡°Sister Ye, pass the ball! Please ask Goddess Laien to change her blog, she has disappeared for many days!¡±


    Seeing those comments, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh. It seemed that in the eyes of netizens, the two of them had been locked up. It was quite fun to tease Jiang Laien or something. But¡­ Ye Kehuan looked at her screen and thought, if they could become locked in reality, it would be fine.


    Thinking about that, Ye Kehuan turned her head again and looked at Jiang Laien next to her.


    The filming in the afternoon went smoothly. When Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien finished work, it was only three o¡¯clock in the afternoon.


    After changing out of their costumes, the two of them left the set together, walked out with full arms, and walked slowly toward the hotel with their own thoughts.


    Suddenly there were only two people left with each other, and neither spoke, and the atmosphere became subtle again inexplicably.


    After all, neither could forget what happened the previous night.


    ¡°Kehuan¡­¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien suddenly stopped her.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan turned and looked at her.


    But at the moment Ye Kehuan turned around, Jiang Laien was stunned again.


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Nothing, it¡¯s just that I suddenly wanted to eat a small cake.¡± Jiang Laien finally swallowed what she wanted to say and pointed to a store by the road.


    ¡°Okay, then eat.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled and nodded, and in the next second, she led Jiang Laien to the store.


    Jiang Laien looked at her back and let out a sigh of relief.


    After entering the cake shop, Ye Kehuan asked directly: ¡°Boss, do you have a strawberry cake?¡±


    ¡°There are no slices, only twelve inches.¡± The shop girl pointed to an eight-inch cake in the window.


    ¡°Then you need twelve inches,¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile, and then asked, ¡°How many strawberries?¡±


    ¡°A lot, our shop uses a lot of ingredients,¡± the shop girl smiled, took out a strawberry cake, thought for a while, then suddenly raised her head to look at them, ¡°Oh, are you guys that Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien?¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned to look at Jiang Laien next to her, then smiled and nodded.


    ¡°I¡¯ve watched your show, oh my god, what good thing did I do in my last life, I actually met the real people¡­ I am your CP fan! OMG!¡± The shop girl was suddenly so excited that she covered her mouth with her hand and jumped several times.


    When Jiang Laien heard the words CP, she looked at Ye Kehuan next to her.


    ¡°Haha, CP fan?¡± Ye Kehuan smiled crookedly with her hands behind her.


    ¡°Yes, yes! I¡¯m begging you for an autograph, okay?!¡± The shop girl looked at them with her eyes wide open.


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening, ¡°Okay.¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien signed the small book spread out by the little girl in the shop.


    After putting it away, the little girl in the shop continued to talk while wrapping the cake: ¡°You two are so good! Oh my little heart, my maiden¡¯s heart, it¡¯s dysfunctional, I¡¯m going crazy.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed and didn¡¯t say anything. She liked to listen to those kinds of words.


    Jiang Laien listened, her heart racing, and it couldn¡¯t calm down for a long time, and her face was a little hot.


    After buying the cake, the two returned to the bed and breakfast.


    ¡°Here.¡± After standing at the door, Ye Kehuan handed the cake to Jiang Laien.


    After Jiang Laien took it, she squeezed her door card, thought for a while, and finally said: ¡°The cake is a bit big.¡±


    Ye Kehuan took her bag and paced for two steps: ¡°So what?¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t finish it alone.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°Then let¡¯s eat together, just like before.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, brushed open the door, first walked in to turn on the heating, then put down her bag and took off her mask.


    After Ye Kehuan went in, she also took off her mask: ¡°I thought you didn¡¯t want me to come in.¡±


    ¡°How come?¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help her eyes going round.


    ¡°Because in the past two days, every time you and I are alone together, it will become weird, making me feel like a dangerous person, let alone being alone in a room.¡± Ye Kehuan closed the door and approached her. Yes, she wouldn¡¯t be like that where there were many people.


    ¡°I, where is it like that¡­¡± Jiang Laien cleared her throat, holding the cake knife, ¡°Well, I¡¯ll cut the cake first¡­¡±


    Afterwards, Jiang Laien sat on the sofa, put the cake on the coffee table and prepared to slice it.


    ¡°It isn¡¯t?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her reaction, raised her hand and stroked her chin, walked to sit next to her, and gradually shifted her eyes from her delicate hands to her profile.


    ¡°Of course not, it¡¯s all your illusion.¡± Jiang Laien didn¡¯t know whether it was her own illusion. She kept feeling that Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice seemed to carry a guiding element. Afterwards, Ye Kehuan opened the cake box and picked up a knife to prepare to cut, but her hands were trembling a little.


    Ye Kehuan saw that, stretched out her hand, and took Jiang Laien¡¯s hand.


    Suddenly, Jiang Laien only felt that there was an electric current running through her skin. Was she ill, why did she suddenly develop such a strange reaction to being touched?


    Ye Kehuan smiled softly and curled her lips: ¡°Your hand is shaking so badly, let me cut it.¡±


    ¡°I¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t wait for her to speak, just took the knife from her hand and began to cut the cake seriously.


    Obviously Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t do anything, but Jiang Laien felt that it was too hot. After taking off her jacket and putting it aside, Jiang Laien adjusted the collar of her sweater and finally felt better.


    ¡°Here.¡± At that moment, Ye Kehuan handed a piece of cake that had been placed on a disposable small dish and a small transparent fork to Jiang Laien.


    After Jiang Laien thanked her, she took it. The cake was beautifully made, and there were many little watery strawberries on it, which looked very cute.


    ¡°In the past few days, you seem to have quite an appetite.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her.


    Jiang Laien dug a little cake and put it in her mouth, and smiled: ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because of winter. Isn¡¯t it the case in winter? It makes people want to eat high-calorie food crazily.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded. That was the reason. However, in her impression, Jiang Laien would eat a lot when she was in a bad mood or was extremely nervous.


    ¡°Instead of watching what I do, why don¡¯t you eat it?¡± Jiang Laien smiled and pointed to the remaining cakes on the coffee table after quickly eating most of the small cake in her hands.


    ¡°Because I¡¯m not interested in it.¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at the cake.


    ¡°Then what are you interested in?¡± Jiang Laien asked while holding a fork.


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head and stared at Jiang Laien firmly.


    Because her coat was taken off, Jiang Laien was only wearing a gray-blue knitted close-fitting sweater at that moment, and the contours of her body were perfectly outlined. In addition, her plump lips were covered with a little cream. Her soft and delicate skin and smart eyes looked a little pure, yet seductive at the same time. How many people could control themselves before such an appearance?


    ¡°I, I¡¯m going to pour a glass of water and drink.¡± Facing Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze, Jiang Laien was suddenly at a loss. After taking the fork out of her mouth, she put the leftover cake on the table and prepared to get up.


    But at that moment, her wrist was held by Ye Kehuan. When she thought of getting up, she instantly fell back to the sofa. Then, before she could react, Ye Kehuan leaned in front of her.


    ¡°Kehuan¡­¡± Jiang Laien stared at her, her mouth slightly open.


    Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s feather-like touch, Jiang Laien involuntarily shrank, only to feel that her body began to soften uncontrollably. Ye Kehuan got closer to her again: ¡°What to do¡­¡±


    ¡°What, what should I do?¡± Her posture, this atmosphere, was really too ambiguous, just like Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice and eyes, it was so ambiguous that it made her breathing difficult, and it also made her react inexplicably.


    ¡°I want to kiss you.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and pressed it on her lips. At the same time, she scraped off the cream from her lips and put it in her mouth. Her throat slid up and down, her eyes hot and squishy, ¡°I have endured it for a long time.¡±


    After listening to Jiang Laien, her eyes widened involuntarily. She was saying that she wanted to treat herself. In an instant, Jiang Laien only felt that her breathing became more and more cramped and burning, and her brain started to fill up with messy pictures.


    ¡°Don¡¯t you want to?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her shallow clavicle with a shining luster, and her voice became more and more dumb.


    ¡°Think¡­¡± Jiang Laien swallowed hard, only to feel that breathing was still very difficult, so she opened her lips and breathed.


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan grabbed the back of her head and kissed her lips.


    The author has something to say: I am unsatisfied with what I wrote before, so I am revised and amended now. Waiting for a long time¡­


    But this chapter is very fat.


    TL/N


    1 - I struggled with this passage. I wanted to change it to be a bit less obvious, because Cheng Yan shouldn¡¯t be that bad at playing the white lotus. But considering her EQ from earlier passages in this chapter alone, I decided to leave it be.

 CH 43

    It was midwinter, and although there was sunshine outside, it was also cold, sunshine hidden in the vast fog and deep chill, approximately equal to nothing.


    However, Jiang Laien felt that the temperature in the room at that time was stronger than the summer sun at noon. She only felt that she was constantly falling toward a roiling magma, and everything was so difficult to contain.


    In the end, Jiang Laien only felt that her brain, her consciousness, and her entire world were strongly controlled by Ye Kehuan. However, she had no resistance to it, only that all her thoughts seemed to be floating on clouds.


    And Ye Kehuan was also a little confused at that time, whether it was reality or a dream. She only knew that her breathing became more and more rapid, and her heartbeat became faster and faster. She could only close her eyes and feel a surge of energy. The world of Jiang Laien. What kind of person Jiang Laien was, she didn¡¯t know, only knowing that she was the person who would make her give up all her principles and submit to the court.


    She had never thought that she would like her friends before. She was afraid and lost because of it, but at that time, she wanted to participate in Jiang Laien¡¯s life more than those fears. Thinking about that, Ye Kehuan unconsciously hugged her tighter.


    At that time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s breathing was hot, overbearing, and too hard to resist. Slowly, Jiang Laien leaned from the sofa to the ground uncontrollably because she couldn¡¯t support herself. And just when she thought she was about to fall, Ye Kehuan immediately caught her in time.


    That time, the two were closer than before, and they could even feel the other¡¯s breathing. Jiang Laien raised her eyes to look at Ye Kehuan¡¯s face in front of her, and saw there was a strong sentiment in her eyes, like the strongest wine; a little touch and it could make people deeply intoxicated, with no route for escape.


    The breath of the two was very disordered, and they couldn¡¯t calm down for a long time, but they just leaned against each other gently. After a while, Ye Kehuan turned her head again and looked at Jiang Laien seriously. At that moment, there was a hint of mist in her eyes, with a hint of charming temperament, which made her heart ache.


    ¡°Do you like kissing me very much?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips were slightly bent, and she opened her mouth lightly, asking for a few words, her tone lazy and slightly dumb.


    After listening, Jiang Laien froze suddenly, glared at her, then bit her lower lip and turned her head to the side.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows and continued to examine her face carefully, ¡°Why don¡¯t you speak?¡±


    Jiang Laien fixed her eyes on her, opened her lips lightly, and finally admitted: ¡°I like it, so what.¡±


    ¡°Then before, why were you so unwilling?¡± Ye Kehuan picked up a strand of Jiang Laien¡¯s hair. Speaking of which, she hid so much the previous night.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Jiang Laien lowered her eyes, not knowing how to organize her thoughts, feeling that Ye Kehuan¡¯s every move at that time was quite disturbing.


    After a moment, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes became deeper and deeper, staring motionlessly at her rosy lips like cherry blossoms, leaning close to the corners of her lips and saying, ¡°Laien, your heart is beating so fast.¡±


    Jiang Laien tilted her head slightly, gulped, opened her mouth, and said in a whisper: ¡°Yours is too, it almost feels like it will jump out.¡±


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan pulled her firmly close to her and closed her eyes, ¡°It jumps so fast, who made me want to do something to you as soon as I saw you.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan kissed Jiang Laien again. She didn¡¯t know when it started. As soon as she saw Jiang Laien, she became very agitated and wanted to bully her. She had even imagined such scenes countless times in her mind. At first she felt guilty, but later¡­ later she couldn¡¯t extricate herself, and just wanted to actually perform those scenes with Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s eyelashes quivered slightly, and then she closed her eyes. At that moment, she felt as if a shallow layer of seawater was spreading her heart, filling every inch of the gaps of her skin, cells, and even nerves, making her unable to break free. Wanting to indulge and float in it, as if about to suffocate. However, the feeling was so addictive, and slowly, Jiang Laien¡¯s heart fluctuated more and more along with her breathing.


    After a while passed, Ye Kehuan finally let go of her, lowered her eyes, and quietly watched Jiang Laien, whose eyes were blurred and her mouth was slightly open. Jiang Laien in that appearance looked really moving, like a little wild cat.


    Jiang Laien was a little uncomfortable by her, and even a layer of scarlet floated on her snowy skin: ¡°So, it¡¯s all my fault?¡±


    ¡°Yes, blame you, blame you for being too sweet.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her reddish neck and suddenly felt that she might be the reincarnation of a vampire. Otherwise, why would she want to take a bite?


    ¡°What are you talking about, where is my sweetness?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s breathing was still very uneven, but her chin was still stubbornly raised.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan pointed to her lips: ¡°Here.¡±


    After that, when Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she leaned close to her ear and whispered, ¡°After all, I have only been in contact with this place.¡±


    Her voice was very ambiguous, and for a short while, Jiang Laien had another layer of goosebumps on her body: ¡°Don¡¯t say it.¡±


    Jiang Laien turned her head to one side, and then whispered: ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you are not interested in women? So what are you doing now?¡±


    ¡°I was originally not interested, but I blame you for being too charming.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were still locked firmly on her body.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t say that on the day of my blind date.¡± Jiang Laien clenched her teeth, her eyes gleaming charmingly.


    ¡°Then I want to take back what I said before,¡± Ye Kehuan tightened her hand around her waist and rubbed the tip of her nose. ¡°Is it too late?¡±


    Jiang Laien shrank slightly, her beautiful eyes seemingly filled with spring water, and then she rolled her eyes and looked at her without speaking.


    Ye Kehuan smiled, put her palms on her back, and whispered softly: ¡°Look how suitable we are. I covet you, but you didn¡¯t do anything to break away. So pliable.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien snapped her lower lip instantly, turned her head to the side with some shame, and retorted weakly: ¡°I¡¯m not¡­¡±


    ¡°No?¡± Ye Kehuan raised an eyebrow.


    ¡°No.¡± Jiang Laien shook her head.


    Ye Kehuan laughed happily and stroked her hair: ¡°I really want to bring a mirror in front of you to let yourself see what you look like now.¡±


    ¡°Me,¡± Jiang Laien swallowed, ¡°what else could I look like¡­¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan smiled again and approached her ear: ¡°Sexy and charming, and looking very satisfied!¡±


    ¡°Why are you like a stinky rascal!¡± Jiang Laien gave her a look, but felt that Ye Kehuan words were too shameful.


    ¡°Life is endless, and learning is more than enough. CP and humanities did not deceive me.¡± Ye Kehuan replied.


    ¡°What did you learn¡­¡± Jiang Laien glared at her, completely unable to look directly at Ye Kehuan like that, her cheeks turning red suddenly, and she said softly, ¡°It¡¯s okay to watch less serious things!¡±


    ¡°But, don¡¯t you like my learning results?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips twitched slightly, bringing her closer to herself, so close that she could fully feel how the other¡¯s heart was pounding.


    ¡°It¡¯s not¡­¡± Jiang Laien wanted to say something, but her lips were kissed again.


    Suddenly, Jiang Laien, who was still a dead duck with a hard beak, fell into it all of a sudden. She had never known that kissing was such a wonderful thing. For a long time, she thought it was those literary works that were exaggerated and coated with romanticism. But now, she found that those were all true.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan left her lips again, quietly looking at her appearance in front of her. She had to say that Jiang Laien at that moment was really cute. She was short of breath, and her fair skin was faintly pink. She was sweet and delicious. Just looking at her in that way was already very tempting.


    ¡°No? Don¡¯t you like it?¡± Ye Kehuan curled her lips slightly, ¡°If not, what are you doing now?¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her, then suddenly propped her shoulders, leaned over to look at her eyebrows, the bridge of her nose, and her lips. She paused for a few seconds, then bit her very quickly: ¡°Killing you.¡±


    Jiang Laien used a little force, making Ye Kehuan frown with pain. After that, Ye Kehuan opened her eyes again and reached out to touch the corners of her lips: ¡°Okay, as the saying goes, there¡¯s a ghost under every peony flower¡­¡±


    ¡°You have really,¡± Jiang Laien stared into her eyes, ¡°greasy lips.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s just slicking from your tongue.¡± Ye Kehuan stared into her eyes and spoke softly.


    Looking at her, Ye Kehuan suddenly felt dry, and moved closer to her lips.


    ¡°I have a question¡­¡± However, at that time, Jiang Laien reached out and pressed her shoulder.


    ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡± Ye Kehuan lowered her head.


    Jiang Laien twisted her fingers tightly, met her gaze, tangled for a moment in her mind, and finally asked: ¡°Do you just want to kiss me? Or¡­¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Ye Kehuan interrupted her before she finished speaking, her deep eyes seeming to penetrate into the depths of Jiang Laien¡¯s soul.


    ¡°That¡¯s¡­¡± Jiang Laien held her breath unconsciously.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan lowered her eyes, grabbed her hand, and leaned over to her ear: ¡°Jiang Laien, I like you. I like the way you laugh, like you when you were chubby and stupid and followed before mind. I also like the way you are always trying to maintain my face in front of others. If I can, I want to give you all my tenderness. If I can, I want to give you everything I can give. If I can, I want to take care of you for the rest of my life. If I can, I want to be with you.¡±

 CH 44

    After Ye Kehuan lowered her eyes and said those words, she gradually moved away from Jiang Laien¡¯s ears and watched her quietly, with seriousness in her eyes. Every word she said came from her heart. Her feelings for Jiang Laien had never been false, whether it was as a friend or an admirer. She just wanted to treat her well.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien held her breath, then she couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to cover her lips, mist filling her eyes. Was this a dream or reality? Happiness came so suddenly that she didn¡¯t even dare to believe that it all was true. She was afraid that those words were just illusions. With a little poke, the scene before her would disappear without a trace.


    ¡°You said you like me?¡± Jiang Laien took her hand away from her lips slightly.


    ¡°I love you,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, her eyes gentle and hot, and she fixed on Jiang Laien¡¯s body firmly, and finally spoke again, with a certain expectation in her voice, ¡°Laien, do you like me, are you willing to accept me?¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan held her breath and waited quietly for her to answer.


    Jiang Laien piety pinched her wrist, and then a layer of stars burst into her eyes. She wanted to say something, but her throat choked so hard she couldn¡¯t say a word. Until she let out a long breath in her chest, raised her hand to cover her eyes, and suddenly started crying and laughing.


    ¡°Laien?¡± Ye Kehuan called her again.


    Jiang Laien sniffled and dropped her hands, then nodded like a chicken pecking.


    ¡°Really?!¡± After Ye Kehuan saw her nodding, she was immediately as happy as a child who bought her favorite candy, even her eyes lit up.


    Jiang Laien cried and twitched, sniffling, looking at her with a red nose, tears still fluttering in her eyes, unable to speak.


    It had been so many years, she almost lost the courage to chase their relationship. Unexpectedly, just when she believed that she had no hope, the person she had only dared to look at from a distance finally turned her head and saw her, and walked over to her, telling her that she wanted to be with her. That was something Jiang Laien hadn¡¯t even dared to think about for a long time.


    ¡°Laien¡­¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and called her softly, choked up and frowned slightly.


    At that moment, after Jiang Laien wiped away the tears that overflowed from her eyes again, she suddenly rushed over, hugged Ye Kehuan, grabbed the clothes on her back, and buried her face in her shoulders, voice full of anguish: ¡°Idiot, I have liked you for a long time, do you think I would like this?!¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s body became stiff and she listened to her words. After that, she hugged Jiang Laien, looked up at the ceiling, and slowly tightened her arms: ¡°Sorry, I kept you waiting¡­¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re such a bastard, you told me to fall in love with Zhou Yue, is your IQ a negative number?!¡± Inexplicably, the more Jiang Laien said, the more she cried, ¡°You left me there and ran away. Are you so eager for me to be close with others?!¡±


    It was rare for Jiang Laien to show such excitement in front of people, whether it was when they were kids or adults. Ye Kehuan was stunned by her words. Afterwards, she felt guilty again, and couldn¡¯t help taking a deep breath, and buried her face in her shoulder: ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m a bastard, my IQ is negative.¡±


    With that, Ye Kehuan hugged her tighter.


    ¡°Are apologies useful? If an apology is useful, then what do the police do?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s cry was very clear, and her tears continued to slide out, dripping onto the clothes on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulders, bringing warmth and dampness to the clothing.


    The person who she liked confessing to her should have been a very happy thing, but Jiang Laien still couldn¡¯t help but feel wronged. Those emotions that she had kept in her heart for many years had been well hidden by her, but at that moment, they suddenly burst out like the mountains and seas. At that moment, she didn¡¯t care about her own image anymore, she just vented it out in front of Ye Kehuan regardless.


    In fact, Jiang Laien cried because of Ye Kehuan, not once or twice. The first time was probably on the first day that Ye Kehuan and Du Mingan confirmed their relationship.


    That afternoon, she was still doing her math homework, when Ye Kehuan patted her arm, mysteriously approached her ear and said: ¡°Laien, I¡¯ll tell you, I¡¯m finally in love too!¡±


    At that time, Jiang Laien¡¯s first feeling was that the sky was about to collapse, her brain was humming, and she was even a little dizzy. She couldn¡¯t even hear what Ye Kehuan said later, but only vaguely heard the name Du Mingan. After that, she gave an ¡°Oh¡± and did not make any comments. After class was over, she ran out of the classroom and squatted in a hidden corner of the campus, where she cried so loudly and waited until the class bell rang. She took out a tissue and wiped her eyes and went back to the classroom.


    Ye Kehuan asked if she was crying, and she shook her head and denied that she was, just blinded by the sand. Then Ye Kehuan simply thought she was really blinded by some sand, and asked her if she wanted her to help, but she refused. Because she found that she couldn¡¯t get along with Ye Kehuan calmly. The gentleness that Ye Kehuan gave her alone before was still there.


    Then that night, Jiang Laien returned home without eating. After returning home, she fell into her bed and cried. She forgot about her homework. She cried intermittently for the whole night. At dawn the next day, when she walked into the bathroom with disheveled hair and looked in the mirror, she found that her eyes were so swollen that there was only a seam left. But when ye Kehuan asked her what was going on, she still shook her head, saying only that it was because of watching a tragic TV show the previous night.


    That was also the first time Jiang Laien realized what it meant to feel heartache. Every day watching the person she liked playing ball, running, playing games and chatting about the world with others, it was really suffocating everywhere--extreme torment.


    She really fell into Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands.


    Facing Jiang Laien¡¯s appearance, Ye Kehuan froze for a few seconds before apologizing again: ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    Jiang Laien sniffed and coughed, but her eyes were still foggy.


    ¡°Sorry, at that time, I did not have a clear mind. In fact, after I left, it was also very painful. For the first time, I started to think about what was the problem. Why I always want to take some intimate actions with you. Why can¡¯t I see you go on a blind date¡­¡± Ye Kehuan sighed again when she said that. She still remembered the feeling of suffocation when she was walking down the road that day.


    With her eyes down, Ye Kehuan rubbed the soft hair on the back of Jiang Laien¡¯s head with her palm, and continued: ¡°I thought about it for a long time, and then Lulu told me that I was like that because I like you. At that time, I still didn¡¯t want to believe it, because I thought it was ridiculous. If you knew it, you would surely alienate me.¡±


    Hearing that, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but squeeze her clothes tighter.


    The corners of Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips turned slightly upwards, and she continued to tidy up Jiang Laien¡¯s hair: ¡°Actually, the reason why I dressed you like that was to hope that the other party would look down on you, and then I would tell you about it when it was over. But I didn¡¯t expect that things didn¡¯t go as I expected. At the time, I said something like that, on the one hand, it was a bit of anger, because you said Zhou Yue was very good, and I was a little unhappy. On the other hand, I thought you were straight, and I thought you really liked that man. I thought, what kind of lightbulb and I, I have no right to intervene in your feelings.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she suddenly hammered Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder: ¡°But I always ask if you like me, and you deny it. How do I know what you are thinking about¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan was shaken by her fist: ¡°Sorry.¡±


    ¡°Big idiot, Ye Kehuan, you are really a big idiot!¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but yell out.


    ¡°Yes, I am a big idiot, then I will only be your big idiot next time. Will you forgive me this time?¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, patted her back and stroked her hair. She dared not justify herself.


    Jiang Laien kept choking, but she didn¡¯t cry crazily anymore.


    Sometimes, people were very interesting, possessing many faces. For example, Jiang Laien, although she would always appear very calm in front of the public, even getting the title of ¡°Buddha Goddess¡±, in front of Ye Kehuan, she couldn¡¯t be such a Buddha. Her emotions were real.


    After Ye Kehuan felt that her emotions seemed to have calmed down, she slowly let go of her, and stared at Jiang Laien, whose nose was red and her eyes were red.


    ¡°Look at what I¡¯m doing.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s nose was blocked from crying too much earlier, a nasal bubble appearing in an instant.


    It was too embarrassing. It was not more than ten minutes before that she became a couple with Ye Kehuan and she already made such a big fool of herself. She also wanted face. Jiang Laien was stunned for half a second, and hurriedly blocked her face with her hand, and in instantly she seemed to become a different person.


    When Ye Kehuan saw it, she sighed, then smiled again, took out a tissue, leaned forward, and held her wrist: ¡°Take it off.¡±


    Jiang Laien listened, and then gradually put her hand down.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her flushed face, smiled again, then folded the issue and wiped the tears from her face: ¡°Look at you, crying like this, as if I just did something bad to you.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s as if you didn¡¯t do anything to be just now.¡± Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan and gently pulled the issue from her hand, wiping her tears herself.


    Ye Kehuan listened for a while, then raised her chin slightly: ¡°So, what did I just do to you?¡±


    ¡°You,¡± Jiang Laien was immediately annoyed when she saw her look, ¡°You don¡¯t know what you did to me¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh, you mean, a kiss? But don¡¯t you like me like that?¡± Ye Kehuan only felt that Jiang Laien, who was a little bit awkward and smiling at that moment, looked extremely cute.


    ¡°I¡¯m too lazy to tell you! I¡¯m going to boil water.¡± Jiang Laien was so ashamed that she was about to jump to her feet. After glaring at her, she stood up and walked quickly to the small kitchen next to them and picked up the electric kettle to boil water.


    However, Jiang Laien had just filled the pot with water when she felt a small shadow coming from behind her. Jiang Laien was startled, before she could turn her head to look around, an arm wrapped around her waist. As soon as her back touched Ye Kehuan¡¯s soft and warm embrace, Jiang Laien suddenly felt that countless ants were crawling on top of her skin, and only felt that her thinking became weird again, with her breathing speeding up.


    ¡°You,¡± Jiang Laien squeezed the electric kettle, turned her head sideways, and opened her lips slightly.


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes, tilted her head to her ear, and whispered: ¡°I have been thinking about holding you generously like this for a long time.¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s body was small and soft. Ye Kehuan felt like she was holding a soft cloud. She couldn¡¯t help but tighten her arms a little. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but loosen her grip on the electric kettle and move towards her, falling into her arms.


    ¡°Yes, was it?¡± Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s lingering breath, Jiang Laien¡¯s mind was full of numbness, and there was a burst of heat in her neck, which gradually spread all over her body.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan kissed her small and white earlobes, with a little nasal sound in her voice, which was particularly bewitching.

 CH 45

    Ye Kehuan¡¯s kiss was extremely light, but for Jiang Laien, even if she did not make any other outrageous actions, she still shuddered with a vague sense of ambiguity when her breath swept across her ears like wings. Jiang Laien fell into her embrace, putting her hand on Ye Kehuan¡¯s, and turning her head to look at her.


    ¡°Kehuan¡­¡±Jiang Laien¡¯s lips were slightly parted, and her eyes were as soft as a mountain stream.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her bright and somewhat blurred eyes, ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°No, it¡¯s nothing. I¡¯ll just boil some water.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s cheeks were slightly hot, and she picked up the kettle again, turned on the faucet, and collected the water happily.


    All of Jiang Laien¡¯s subtle reactions fell into Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes, which made her raise her eyebrows: ¡°Nothing?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, what else? I¡¯m dying of thirst.¡± After turning off the faucet, Jiang Laien closed the lid of the electric kettle and plugged it in.


    ¡°I¡¯m looking at you because you are thinking about something shameful.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled again.


    ¡°You don¡¯t see anything, you¡¯re full of yellow waste!¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sidelong glare.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t say anything. Isn¡¯t it you who is full of things like that?¡± Ye Kehuan followed up.


    ¡°You, you, I¡¯m a famous lady!¡± Jiang Laien turned around again, leaned close to her, and raised her collar, ¡°Don¡¯t try to smear my name.¡±


    ¡°Purity and desire are only one word different.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled and looked down at her hand. 1


    ¡°I won¡¯t play with you.¡± Jiang Laien let go of her, went aside, picked up two apples from the fruit basket, and returned to the kitchen.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her back and couldn¡¯t help bending her lips. How many good things did she do in her last life to cultivate such a blessing and obtain such a beautiful and lovely girlfriend? Perhaps she saved the universe.


    For the first time, Ye Kehuan felt that her world was as beautiful as it was flooded with endless light. If possible, she wanted to embrace that light ¡®til the last moment of her life.


    After thinking for a while, she suddenly remembered something. Ye Kehuan hurriedly lowered her head and took out her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Chen Lulu:


    ¡°Lulu, you really are a genius, thanks to you, I¡¯m with Laien~


    ¡°Are you still in Chongyuan? If you are, let¡¯s find time to have a meal. I have to thank you many times over.¡±


    However, Ye Kehuan waited for a while, but Chen Lulu did not respond. She may be busy. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t think too much.


    At that time, in an old residential area north of the city.


    Chen Lulu was awakened by the sound of notifications from her mobile phone.


    When she woke up, she only felt dizzy, and her temple seemed to have been punched by someone. Her mind was chaotic. Taking a deep breath, and then another, Chen Lulu turned her head, opened her eyes, and a small window on the opposite wall came into view. Chen Lulu realized that she was in a strange room at that moment.


    Chen Lulu was taken aback for a moment, and instantly sat up, propped herself up on the bed with both hands, and looked around.


    The layout of the room was very simple, with blue-gray wallpaper, beige cabinets, a small white desk, and a bed. The overall feeling was quite clean and tidy.


    So, where was this place? It took a while before she slowly remembered all the things that happened the previous night. Could it be that Ji Changge saw that she was drunk and took her back to her home? Without thinking about it or checking her WeChat messages, Chen Lulu just lifted the quilt, grabbed the jacket next to her and put it on, got out of bed and opened the door and went out.


    When she went out, she saw a very small living room. The walls were covered with oil painting frames. All the furniture was white or gray. The plants on the windowsill not only did not make the room more lively, but also seemed to exude a chilly taste.


    ¡°Boss Ji?¡± Chen Lulu tentatively called her name, walked to the kitchen, then to the bathroom, and finally opened another closed door. ¡°Ji Changge?¡±


    However, there was no one behind that door. However, Chen Lulu was taken aback for a while. The room was very small, the windows were sealed, the walls were covered with soundproof cotton, and there was an electronic piano, a desk, a computer, headphones, stereos, and pen and paper.


    Not only does she like music, but she makes it herself? Chen Lulu approached the small table and leaned over to look at a sticky note posted on the lower right corner of the computer. She saw it read: Luxury.


    What do you mean? Why are you so emotional? When Chen Lulu raised her hand and squeezed her chin and looked at the delicate handwriting, she suddenly heard the sound of an opening door. Chen Lulu was startled and turned around to leave the room. But just as she walked out the door, Ji Changge appeared before her.


    ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Ji Changge wore a black jacket, had one hand in her pocket, and the other hand carrying a bag of things, and looked at her calmly.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Chen Lulu was stunned, then the corners of her lips twitched: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, just woke up in a strange room suddenly, of course I had to see where I was, otherwise, in case it¡¯s the den of a perverted serial killer, wouldn¡¯t I die?¡±


    She didn¡¯t know if it was because Ji Changge¡¯s dress was completely black today, but her face looked extremely pale; even her lips were bloodless.


    Ji Changge looked at her, raised her hand to the door, and did not give her a second glance, just turned around and took her things to the kitchen: ¡°You were drunk last night, and I asked where you live. You said you live in Shuilian Cave, Mount Huaguo. What could I do? I couldn¡¯t throw you on the street, so I could only bring you to my place.


    When Chen Lulu listened, she closed her eyes and bit her left lower lip. Was she so drunk that night? Afterwards, Chen Lulu hurriedly followed up: ¡°It turned out to be like that. Then, what happened later, did I later go drunk crazy?¡±


    ¡°What do you think?¡± Ji Changge took the things out of the bag with one hand.


    Chen Lulu choked: ¡°What did I do?¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge glanced at her: ¡°Called me.¡±


    Chen Lulu looked at her, closed her mouth, held her breath, her eyes widened, her cheeks bulging like a hamster.


    After a while, Chen Lulu asked again: ¡°What did I scold you for?¡±


    ¡°Scumbag, vixen.¡± Ji Changge said lightly.


    ¡°No, no, I didn¡¯t think about you that way, I¡­¡± Chen Lulu was sweating coldly, and her intestines were almost blue with regret.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡± Ji Changge shook her head, put some things in the refrigerator, closed the door, unscrewed the lid of a carton of milk with one hand, lifted it up and took two sips.


    ¡°Then, is your store closed today?¡± Chen Lulu remembered well. Ji Changge¡¯s store opened at four o¡¯clock every afternoon, and it was now approaching five o¡¯clock. Could it be that she still had her own heart, and she was worried about her so she decided to stay at home?


    Thinking of that, Chen Lulu was vaguely happy again. What? She just looks cold as expected.


    At that time, Ji Changge put down the milk, turned her head to look at her, then took out her right hand wrapped in a piece of gauze from her pocket, and showed it to her: ¡°It¡¯s hurts, so I can¡¯t do business.¡±


    Chen Lulu was stunned again when she saw it: ¡°Could it be that you rescued me from an injury last night? Sorry, does it hurt so much? What did the doctor say? Is it okay? How long will it take¡­¡±


    Ji Changge glanced at her: ¡°Don¡¯t get drunk to that level anymore. You have to watch for cars when you walk.¡±


    Chen Lulu was stunned for half a second, and nodded: ¡°I know. I¡¯m sorry. Well, it should be very inconvenient for you to get hurt, right? Have you eaten dinner? If you haven¡¯t, I will cook it for you. I can also cook well!¡±


    Ji Changge set her hand, turned and walked out of the kitchen, stopped by the sofa, and raised her hand to check the potted plants placed there: ¡°Since you are now awake, you should be fine to go back by yourself.¡±


    Just as Chen Lulu wanted to follow, after hearing Ji Changge¡¯s words, she clenched her teeth on the kitchen door frame. The only emotion displayed in the voice of Ji Changge was indifference. Reminiscing about her own sentimental thoughts, Chen Lulu suddenly wanted to laugh. Even if she seemed to worry about her last night, maybe even if she replaced herself with someone else, Ji Changge would still do the same thing.


    In the end, Chen Lulu loosened her jaw, took a deep breath, smiled, and walked forward pretending to be relaxed: Ji Changge, do you feel it¡¯s annoying to even look at me now? Otherwise, why would you rush me away in such a hurry?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t think too much. I just think it¡¯s better to keep a distance between us, because we can¡¯t be together.¡± Ji Changge turned around.


    ¡°I know¡­¡± Chen Lulu hugged her slightly trembling arms, her smile a little ugly, ¡°I know we can¡¯t be together, but, can¡¯t we be friends?¡±


    Ji Changge just watched her faintly, without saying a word.


    As a result, Chen Lulu held the corners of her lips, smiling more and more reluctantly: ¡°I was not happy last night, but it wasn¡¯t because I wanted you to fall in love with me, but I just thought you were so unfeeling, and wouldn¡¯t even accept me as a friend. Let¡¯s talk about it. Didn¡¯t you say that it was inconvenient to hurt your hand? In addition, you did save me, so I¡¯m wondering if it¡¯s reasonable for me to cook a meal for you, okay?¡±


    It was undeniable that Chen Lulu¡¯s words were disjointed.


    Ji Changge turned her head to the side and stopped answering her words.


    When Chen Lulu saw that, her heart became cold again, and she nodded: ¡°Okay, I know, I¡¯m going, I won¡¯t disturb you.¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu returned to the room, took her bag, walked out, put on her high heels, opened the door, and ran out quickly.


    Ji Changge looked at the open door, coughed with her hand on her throat, frowned, and glanced at the time on her phone. She went to the coffee table and pulled out a drawer, took out a bottle of medicine, poured out a pill and swallowed it down with water.


    At half past seven the next day.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien arrived on the set, Ye Kehuan smiled and greeted everyone as usual, but everyone¡¯s expressions were a little weird. Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but glance at each other. Chao Mingqing and Yingying were also at a loss, but because they had to help Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien get some things or something, they didn¡¯t have time to ask them anything.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but asking after sitting down in front of the makeup artist.


    ¡°Have you read the news just now?¡± The makeup artist asked softly while holding a makeup brush.


    ¡°No, what¡¯s the news?¡± Ye Kehuan frowned, put her hand into the pocket of her army green cotton coat, and took her phone out to take a look.


    ¡°Hey, have a look.¡± The makeup artist sighed.


    ¡°Wait, let me see.¡± Ye Kehuan said, unlocking her phone.


    After Jiang Laien listened from the side, she couldn¡¯t help but frown, and then took back her phone that she had handed to Yingying.


    Ye Kehuan had just unlocked her phone when she saw that the notification bar was full of several push notifications. Those news messages were basically pushed over ten minutes ago.


    [Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan, why did you turn your face on the set? Is the friendship broken or the cooperation hype a failure?]


    [Shocking! The goddess of the nation was drunk at a barbecue shop late at night!]


    Seeing those, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help squinting her eyes, then turned her head to look at Jiang Laien, only to see Jiang Laien frowning. It was just that there were so many people there, so they couldn¡¯t talk about much.


    Ye Kehuan turned around and went on Weibo, only to see that she and Jiang Laien had been ranked in the top ten in the hot search within a short period of time. Ye Kehuan frowned and clicked on a hot search tag, only to see a blogger named ¡°Entertainment Baa Baa¡± post a long paragraph: ¡°The pictures are all here, what do you think?¡±


    The first video was of their lunch when they came to the set on New Year¡¯s Day. Jiang Laien was sitting with others on the set, and after Ye Kehuan took her meal and walked over, she only just sat down and then got up and left, and gave the meal to someone else. Picture two was the video was of Jiang Laien being drunk in that barbecue restaurant.


    Sliding her finger, Ye Kehuan clicked to open the comment section. In a short time, the number of comments in the area doubled, and everyone was discussing the matter in full swing.


    [Netizens ¡®See Through the Vicissitudes of the World¡¯: What do I think? Hahaha, what else could it be but the ship overturned? I think they are simply people who can¡¯t get along. It was estimated that they were together for cooperation and hype before, so they were forced to pretend to be good Chinese girlfriends, right?]


    [Netizen ¡®I Am The Most Beautiful¡¯: Haha, I think so. Looking at the first video, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t want to care about her at all, and she insisted on moving away. Why, not able to hold her thighs?]


    [Netizen ¡®I¡¯m A Big Fool¡¯: I know, it¡¯s so easy to change one face, but impossible to change one¡¯s nature, yuck! What kind of stupid thing is this, her fans still boast about her being a straightforward and hardworking girl every day, but they are really **** **** people!]


    [Netizen ¡®Little Jiang¡¯s Little Leaf¡¯: That¡¯s enough. Combining the two pictures, doesn¡¯t it feel like a quarrel between friends, and then Jiang Laien got drunk? If she got drunk because of sadness, doesn¡¯t it mean that their relationship is good? Were you all born without brains?]


    [Netizen ¡®Professional Lianjing¡¯: The question is, if they are indeed good friends, why would a person with such good temperament such as the Buddha be so angry that she does not care about her and even uses alcohol to relieve her troubles? Can it also be explained from the side that Ye Kehuan is like the one portrayed in the legend, who makes troubles everywhere? I think it¡¯s you fans who have no brains!]


    ¡­


    The comments on the Internet could be said to be full of tricks and speculations. Some people said that in the previous show ¡°The Food is Ready¡±, the various interactive sections of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were designed scripts, and they were just acting with the purpose of making a commercial CP.


    After all, it was the Internet. As long as any ordinary thing in life was moved to the Internet, it would be infinitely magnified, let alone celebrities.


    In addition, Cheng Yan¡¯s name also appeared again, probably because many people were sorry for her, feeling that she was ¡°robbed¡± of resources by someone like Ye Kehuan, which was simply pitiful. In that way, netizens picked up Ye Kehuan¡¯s previous ¡°black history¡±. Some people even began to try to persuade Jiang Laien to give up the act and leave Ye Kehuan behind, saying that red and black should not mix.


    As a result, some irrational fans of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien began to tear each other up. Some fans of Jiang Laien felt that Ye Kehuan was a scumbag who hugged her thighs, and wished she would die; some fans of Ye Kehuan felt that Jiang Laien¡¯s fans were talking nonsense and making trouble, and then went up to Jiang Laien, say something like: ¡°Before, when your Goddess posted on Sister Ye¡¯s Weibo, she was just holding her thigh? If your Goddess has the ability, she won¡¯t cooperate with Sister Ye to cool things down.¡±


    The scene was once again filled with gunpowder and chaos.


    Jiang Laien looked at those comments and was inexplicably upset. It wasn¡¯t because she minded about herself, but she didn¡¯t want to see Ye Kehuan being scolded in that way. Clearly, Ye Kehuan was not that kind of person.


    ¡°These people are really interesting. I look at you every day. Who doesn¡¯t know that you two are good friends? Just speculating like this,¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s makeup artist couldn¡¯t help but ridicule and puff up. ¡°Come on, raise your face a little.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, these people are really funny, raining wherever the wind is blowing, haha.¡± At that time, Cheng Yan walked in from the outside, saying that, but her face was red, like she was watching a big happy event.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her for a moment, then suddenly curled her lips and smiled: ¡°Are you here?¡±


    ¡°Yes, good morning.¡± Cheng Yan still had an invisible smile in her eyes.


    Ye Kehuan smiled again after listening, ¡°Speaking of which, I haven¡¯t thanked you yet.¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard that, she was taken aback, her smile quickly solidifying. Could it be that Ye Kehuan was sarcastic? Did she see through it so quickly and realize that she did it? Wasn¡¯t she just silly and sweet? Cheng Yan stared at her for a moment, grinning: ¡°Thanks, why?¡±


    Ye Kehuan stared at her steadily, her aura suddenly becoming a little gloomy, and the other people in the room couldn¡¯t help being frightened by her, looking from her to Cheng Yan.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan suddenly smiled again, with a crooked smile, innocent and harmless: ¡°What else could it be?¡±


    Cheng Yan looked at her, swallowing involuntarily: ¡°Why¡­ I don¡¯t understand?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked down and smiled like a white rabbit: ¡°Did you forget the meal you prepared for Laien yesterday? I really enjoyed it. Please help me tell your brother, his art of cooking is really great!¡±


    After Cheng Yan listened, she finally let out a sigh of relief, and didn¡¯t pay attention to whether Ye Kehuan hid something in her words: ¡°Well, there is nothing to thank me for, just eat happily.¡±


    After listening to the conversation between the two, the people around looked at Jiang Laien again, feeling that things weren¡¯t that simple.


    Cheng Yan laughed again at last, then walked to a dressing table and sat down and brushed her hair.


    Chao Mingqing stood next to Ye Kehuan, biting her lips, and didn¡¯t know what, today, she really couldn¡¯t stand seeing Cheng Yan.


    After Ye Kehuan sat down Cheng Yan, she pondered over the subtle changes in her expression, and gradually put away the smile on her lips. After a moment, Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her makeup artist, and smiled: ¡°I¡¯m sorry, please go ahead.¡±


    The makeup artist was stunned for a second, then nodded and smiled: ¡°Okay.¡±


    That day¡¯s filming was intensive. The same as the day before, from morning to afternoon, she didn¡¯t have time to rest. It was probably because Ye Kehuan had to leave in a few days, so Director Chen arranged her accordingly. The filming was an exciting time, because the mystery was being revealed step by step.


    After the filming of that day¡¯s scenes was finished, it was almost seven o¡¯clock in the evening. Jiang Laien took her phone and swiped it for a while before starting to remove her makeup and change clothes.


    After leaving the set, Ye Kehuan saw that Jiang Laien was still staring at her phone while she was walking, so she reached out to embrace her shoulder: ¡°Why, does the phone look better than me?¡±


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help turning her head to retort: ¡°How is that possible?!¡±


    ¡°Then why do you keep watching?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°I¡¯m just looking at the comments under the news today. It¡¯s too much. I¡¯m thinking, I have to post something to make them stop talking like that.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s eyebrows were almost twisted.


    ¡°I want to say that I have experienced untold online violence. Sometimes, even if you speak reasonably well, they won¡¯t listen to it and will just use it. Many people will only choose to believe what they are willing to believe.¡± Ye Kehuan said. Sometimes, you had to adopt other means, but whatever you chose, it would not wash away all prejudices.


    ¡°I¡¯m not afraid of them talking about me, I just can¡¯t see them talking about you. Look at those messy black materials, it¡¯s really absurd, and some people believe¡­¡± Jiang Laien became more and more angry.


    Ye Kehuan stopped when she heard that and looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s blushing face. The current Jiang Laien looked really angry, as if she was about to blow up. That was the first time Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Laien when she was reading news and comments.


    ¡°Why¡­¡± Jiang Laien blanked.


    ¡°I¡¯m happy.¡± Ye Kehuan said while laughing, her eyes clear.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have a fever, why are you happy to see this kind of thing?¡± Jiang Laien lifted her hand that had been difficult to move because of the thick and loving cotton clothes that Ye Kehuan chose for her the previous night, and stroked Ye Kehuan¡¯s forehead.


    ¡°I mean, you care so much about me, so I am really happy.¡± Ye Kehuan pulled down her wrist and continued to smile softly.


    Jiang Laien listened and look at her like a mentally retarded person: ¡°I think you are a fool.¡±


    ¡°Not.¡± Ye Kehuan touched her chin.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s face was hot, and she couldn¡¯t help lowering her head, chuckling, and glancing at her again: ¡°Don¡¯t change the subject. Hey, I¡¯ve been really angry all day today. Look at those people, this stuff is really messed up. I¡¯m saying, why are they talking about you holding my thigh, where do they see that?¡±


    ¡°Forget them, I have a girlfriend now.¡± Ye Kehuan continued to walk with Jiang Laien¡¯s arm.


    Jiang Laien froze and continued: ¡°The most important thing is that they will really affect your career. You are now officially on the rise. Sometimes people will have a herd effect, that is, who is being blown up on a large scale. If she has good acting skills, everyone thinks her acting is good, even if her acting skills are only above average, but if anyone is blown up with poor acting skills on a large scale, the public will acquiesce that her acting skills are poor, even if her acting skills are not that bad¡­¡±


    ¡°Forget them, I have a girlfriend now.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    Jiang Laien was stunned again, and said: ¡°Then, your resources will also be affected¡­¡±


    ¡°Forget them, I have a girlfriend now.¡± Ye Kehuan repeated.


    Jiang Laien finally couldn¡¯t help turning her head and looking at her: ¡°Why always repeat this sentence?¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened, pursed her lips and smiled, then stood in front of her and stretched out her hand to scrape the tip of Jiang Laien¡¯s nose: ¡°I just want to tell you that nothing else matters. You are my world.¡±


    Jiang Laien shrank her head, her cheeks becoming more and more red, and said softly: ¡°Sure enough, you are a big fool.¡±


    But Ye Kehuan continued to stare at her motionlessly, her eyes burning.


    ¡°Why look at me¡­¡± Jiang Laien didn¡¯t know what was going on. Every time she looked at her like that, she would feel very shy.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan laughed again, put her hand on her heart, and pointed to her head: ¡°If loving you makes me stupid, then I am willing to be a fool for ten thousand years.¡±


    The author has something to say: Jiang Laien: ¡°Mom, this person is teasing me again!¡±


    TL/N


    1 - Both words here use Yu, but one is Óñ (jade, purity) and one is Óû (want, desire)


    2 - Just look it up. I don¡¯t think this has any literary significance, but it is a really cool place.

 CH 46

    The streets were cold and windy and depressed. However, Ye Kehuan¡¯s smile was warmer than the spring breeze and brighter than the sun. Jiang Laien looked at her like that, and was inexplicably touched. Before, she had never expected Ye Kehuan to say such things to her.


    ¡°Ten thousand years¡­ Don¡¯t slap your face.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s lips curled up, and she hurriedly constricted her smile, pretending to be cold.


    ¡°How could I slap my face? Hey hey hey, Jiang Laien, I ask you, do I look like such an unreliable person?¡± Ye Kehuan blinked at her nose, not sure whether to laugh or cry. ¡°I¡¯m super reliable. If you recognize this, you will be someone who knows this for the rest of your life.¡±


    ¡°Who knows?¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance. There was a little tsundere in her words, and her eyes were full of anger.


    ¡°I know.¡± Ye Kehuan watched her quietly, her expression full of seriousness.


    ¡°You¡¯re really shameless.¡± Jiang Laien narrowed her eyes and said.


    ¡°I¡¯m just shameless. If I wanted to face on, I could take down any arrogant young noble. Can they even dream of beating me?¡± Ye Kehuan laughed and leaned over to look at her.


    Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and smashed her shoulder and whispered: ¡°What are you talking about? You are obviously incomprehensible and stupid. I once crawled on your bed and kissed you. You just regarded it as a dream when you woke up the next day, you¡­¡±


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback when she heard that, and turned to look at her, ¡°So you were, at that time¡­¡±


    She really didn¡¯t expect it at all. For a long time, she thought that it was just a dream, but it turned out to be real? Suddenly, Ye Kehuan felt that she really missed a lot. If she were sober that day, they would have been together long ago. Thinking about it that way, Ye Kehuan only felt that she might be a little stupid.


    ¡°Ah, I won¡¯t tell you anymore.¡± Jiang Laien finally gave her a coy look, and then took a quick step forward.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her hair flying in the air, put her hands in her pockets, and ran forward: ¡°Wait for me!¡±


    After trotting to Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan smiled slightly, then stretched out her hand, hooked the hand hanging beside her, and clenched it a little bit, as if to hold her other half firmly.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands were always very warm, which was completely different from the cold all the time Jiang Laien. Jiang Laien felt the temperature in her palm, glanced at her quietly with the corner of her eye, and then slightly pursed her lips.


    ¡°Thank you.¡± At that moment, Ye Kehuan smiled lightly.


    ¡°Suddenly saying something so silly.¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance.


    ¡°Thank you for waiting for me so long. If you wanted to be with someone else, I may have already lost your patience and love.¡± Ye Kehuan took a deep breath, staring ahead, only feeling that she was lucky for three lives.


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help turning her head to look at her, then lowered her head to stare at the ground: ¡°It¡¯s good that you know.¡±


    Ye Kehuan thought about it, approached her again, and asked a question that most couples always asked each other after being together: ¡°When did you like me?¡±


    ¡°Probably from the holiday from third grade to the first grade of high school.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°Then, what do you like about me?¡± Ye Kehuan continued to ask curiously.


    Jiang Laien listened, laughed, and looked ahead: ¡°You¡¯re kind and enthusiastic. Happy all day long, as if there is nothing to worry about. It¡¯s completely different from people like me.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s it? Nothing else?¡± Ye Kehuan scratched her hat and pressed her hand to her chest. ¡°For example, you were attracted by my beautiful and handsome face, so you got stuck in it and couldn¡¯t get out; or were you attracted by my magnetic voice--whenever you heard it, your adrenaline soared, hormones flooded, and you wanted to be held in my arms--is there really nothing?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien showed a standard smile and looked at her like a sand sculpture.


    ¡°You¡¯re making me a little flustered,¡± Ye Kehuan gulped and nodded, ¡°Well, if you don¡¯t have it, then that would be a no.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien chuckled, then lowered her head, and said softly: ¡°You are right, and it is true. The first time I felt that I thought about you unusually was when we were once watching TV together on the sofa. You suddenly came over and said to me, ¡®you are so beautiful¡¯. Then, I was inexplicably tricked.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was happy when she heard that, and then leaned over, gently fiddled with her scattered hair, and looked at her tenderly: ¡°But you are really beautiful.¡±


    Jiang Laien was taken aback, so she turned her head and looked at her. After meeting those deep eyes, her heart shook uncontrollably, and her ears became hot again: ¡°I hate you, walk.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed more happily, and then, after thinking about it, she said, ¡°Speaking of which, what happened on the Internet this time should be someone deliberately targeting us.¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s eyebrows were slightly twisted, and after a moment, she turned her head to look at her.


    ¡°The main reason is that this matter is quite unreasonable this time. Think, if it was captured by the media, why didn¡¯t they release the material as soon as we were caught in the dispute?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows. Before she entered the entertainment industry, she was also a management figure in her father¡¯s company; she still had a brain, and it was impossible to even ignore those problems.


    ¡°Yeah, this is indeed very strange. I don¡¯t want to understand. If these things were photographed, they can be released as soon as possible to ensure that they have the exclusive material. Otherwise, if someone else preempts the release, then it¡¯s not worth the loss. If I¡¯m a paparazzi, I wouldn¡¯t do it like this. I would work overtime to release it as soon as possible, so as not to be taken advantage of by other people who may have also gotten photographs.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Yes. If the paparazzi doesn¡¯t publish it as soon as the photo is taken, generally speaking, they may put an ambiguous material for everyone to guess, so that we would automatically contact them to pay for the material after seeing it. Going on, that is, they would use that to ask for hush money in disguise. But the other party did not do it like this, but after so many days, they broke the news of this kind of thing. Isn¡¯t it really weird?¡± Ye Kehuan laughed.


    ¡°It¡¯s really strange. So, it should be someone in the crew who can¡¯t understand us.¡± Jiang Laien looked at her and pondered, ¡°I thought of someone. I don¡¯t know if you have thought of them.¡±


    ¡°Well,¡± Ye Kehuan laughed happily, ¡°someone like Princess Cheng.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, she has never been able to understand you.¡± Jiang Laien had actually been staring at Cheng Yan for a long time.


    ¡°Maybe she had noticed something before, that our relationship was not in harmony or something, and then followed us to take pictures that made it look worse between us. And she did not choose to post it immediately, most likely because she wanted to approach you when we were in conflict. What she didn¡¯t expect was that afterwards her expectations fell through, so she sent it out.¡± Ye Kehuan remembered the look on her face when she tested her that morning, and felt that her guess should be close to perfect. After all, Cheng Yan looked too weird at the time.


    ¡°I always think that that person is not very righteous,¡± Jiang Laien had already noticed some of Cheng Yan¡¯s small movements, ¡°every time you have good resources, she will always make some insinuations that you have seized them from her on Weibo. What do we do next?¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed after hearing that: ¡°You should eat, drink, sleep, and if you want to show me affection on Weibo, then you can show affection on Weibo and make her angry.


    ¡°But if we act like we don¡¯t care, she will feel that we can¡¯t beat her bully and get worse. She should be warned.¡± Jiang Laien didn¡¯t actually have any intentions.


    It could be said that Jiang Laien could be that capricious in the circle. On the one hand, because her personality was really pleasing, although she rarely accepted interviews or went on variety shows, but every time she was interviewed, she was friendly to the media, so she got along well with the media even without needing her agents to operate, so the media would voluntarily make her look good; second, because her acting skills were indeed impeccable, it was really difficult to find points of attack; third, because her family still supported her. They were not like Ye Kehuan¡¯s father who opposed it, and they paved the way for her a lot in her early days.


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening to Jiang Laien¡¯s words: ¡°We  will continue to interact on Weibo as always, and as for the rest¡­ don¡¯t be stunned. Let me talk about it after I find some leverage on Cheng Yan. Speaking of which, Lulu knows a lot of people. Before she did barbecue, she also chased stars as an investor, and engaged in marketing and other things. I¡¯ll ask her to discuss how to implement it.¡±


    It could be said that Chen Lulu was simply a genius. At the time, Chen Lulu, as a fan of an actor she liked, was the strategist. Calling a bunch of people to write CP articles for him and buying a hot search to help him hype were the most basic of operations possible. Chen Lulu contributed a lot to the fact that the male star was so hot. However, Chen Lulu had a characteristic, that was, when her idol became popular, she would dislike them, and instead abandon them, and then look for another rookie star to continue to spend money to cultivate their image. This was commonly called having so much money you don¡¯t know where to spend it.


    ¡°Good.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    But at that moment, Ye Kehuan tilted her head again, frowned, and thought: ¡°I suddenly remembered that Lulu had not returned my message. I sent her a message yesterday afternoon, and it¡¯s been nearly a day and a night. It¡¯s really a bit abnormal. She is an Internet addicted girl and it is impossible to get her away from her mobile phone.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien frowned, ¡°Could it be because she was busy? Didn¡¯t she make clothes recently? When I get busy, I sometimes forget to check my notifications.¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s very lively, and she¡¯s a Weibo and WeChat madman. No matter how busy she is, she will reply to messages.¡± In Ye Kehuan¡¯s impression, Chen Lulu had always been like that. Even if Chen Lulu fell asleep, as long as she sent a message or made a phone call, she would always reply as soon as possible. Because her phone had never been muted.


    ¡°Then, how many more did you send? WeChat sometimes gets convulsions and does not prompt messages. If there is no prompt, and there are too many messages in the interface that haven¡¯t been cleaned up, she might not notice.¡± Jiang Laien suddenly remembered. She also ate Chen Lulu¡¯s vinegar when she was at school, because Ye Kehuan and Chen Lulu were too close at that time.


    Suddenly, Jiang Laien felt that she was really a bit ridiculous at that time. Obviously, Chen Lulu and Ye Kehuan were really just friends who played a lot.


    ¡°Well, then I¡¯ll send it to her again.¡± Ye Kehuan said, typing.


    However, after the message was sent, and after waiting for a while, Chen Lulu still did not reply. Ye Kehuan stared at her phone, and before she knew it, her brows were tight.


    Later, Ye Kehuan called Chen Lulu again, but Chen Lulu still didn¡¯t answer until the ringing timed out automatically. Ye Kehuan expression couldn¡¯t help becoming solemn.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter, she still didn¡¯t answer it?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Yeah,¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, let out a sigh, and held her phone up in the air, ¡°I¡¯ll look for Xiao Mo.¡±


    ¡°Good.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t wait for too long, and then dialed Xiao Mo¡¯s number.


    After waiting for about ten seconds, the call was connected, and Ye Kehuan hurriedly asked: ¡°Xiao Mo, have you contacted Lulu in the past two days?¡±


    ¡°I left Chongyuan on a fight yesterday. I haven¡¯t seen her again. I sent her a message, but she didn¡¯t reply. What¡¯s the matter?¡± Xiao Mo was stunned for half a second.


    ¡°I sent her a message and she never replied, and no one answered my call. I¡¯m afraid something happened. Do you know which hotel she¡¯s staying in?¡± Ye Kehuan hurriedly asked.


    ¡°Huh? That¡¯s really abnormal. She used to stay at the IFC Hotel, the one on Qinghu Road. If nothing happens, she shouldn¡¯t change it. Would you like to check it now?¡± Xiao Mo also revealed a faint worry in her voice.


    ¡°Okay, I see.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she hung up the phone.


    ¡°What did Xiao Mo say?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°She can¡¯t contact Lulu. Let¡¯s go, let¡¯s go to the hotel where Lulu stays.¡± Ye Kehuan turned on the navigation and looked up the location of the hotel.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s go.¡± Jiang Laien also suddenly became nervous for no reason.


    After Ye Kehuan looked up the detailed address, she took a taxi with Jiang Laien to go there.


    Since there was some distance to the hotel, it would take more than half an hour, so Ye Kehuan did not stop calling Chen Lulu along the way. However, from beginning to end, no one answered.


    Countless phone calls were the result of that, and the ominous premonition in Ye Kehuan¡¯s heart could not help but deepen a few more degrees. Jiang Laien looked sideways at Ye Kehuan and couldn¡¯t help putting her hand on her lap. She sighed as she watched her continue to dial seamlessly one call after another.


    At six o¡¯clock, the driver finally drove the car to the steps of the hotel that looked exceptionally magnificent.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien got out of the car, they quickly ran up the stone steps, entered the wide lobby, and ran to the front desk.


    ¡°Miss, do you have a reservation¡­¡± The girl at the front desk wore a black uniform, a burgundy bow tie, and had a simple face with a sunny smile, polite and clean.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not staying. I just want to ask, is Miss Chen Lulu still staying here? I and her other friends have not been able to contact her for two days, and she isn¡¯t answering her messages or calls. This is too abnormal. I know her very well, and I¡¯ve never seen this, so I¡¯m very worried that something happened to her.¡± Ye Kehuan stood still, rubbed her hand under her nose, and asked breathlessly.


    The front desk clerk originally wanted to say that the privacy of guests could not be leaked, but after hearing what Ye Kehuan said, her expression immediately became serious: ¡°Hello, please wait a moment, let me check.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    She saw the front desk clerk typing a bunch on the computer, and then looked up at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, two men who were heavily armed like black mountains, grabbed the landline phone and started dialing Chen Lulu¡¯s room landline number.


    However, no one answered. Afterwards, the front desk clerk dialed Chen Lulu¡¯s mobile phone number again, but there was still no one to answer, so she put it down again: ¡°No one answered.¡±


    ¡°Which room does she stay in? Please, let us go and see! Even if you don¡¯t let us go, you can go and take a look.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her intently.


    After listening, the front desk clerk frowned, then handed over her work to the person next to her, and took a key card and walked out: ¡°I¡¯ll take you there.¡±


    ¡°Thank you!¡± After Ye Kehuan thanked her, she and Jiang Laien followed the girl towards the elevator.


    After arriving at the room where Chen Lulu was staying, the front desk clerk rang the doorbell. After waiting for a while, no one opened the door, so she pressed again: ¡°Is anyone there?¡±


    That was repeated several times, but no one opened the door, so the front desk clerk had to pick up the car, swiped the door, and walked in.


    The entrance was a very spacious hall with a post-modern structural design and a very large area. It was a suite.


    After entering, the three people were stunned. They saw that the transparent arc-shaped coffee table was full of horizontal and vertical wine bottles, and a pile of white pills were scattered on the ground. Chen Lulu was wearing a champagne-gold long-sleeved set of pajamas, lying on the sofa behind the coffee table. Her hair was messy. Looking at the whole scene together, it was quite shocking.


    ¡°Oh my God¡­¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand involuntarily and put it on her lips, her pupils suddenly tightening.


    ¡°Lulu?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned for half a second, and immediately rushed over, squatted down beside Chen Lulu, stretched out her arms to hold her shoulders, then patted her face again and stroked the corners of her lips, which had a little foam.


    The front desk clerk was so frightened she could only stand there petrified.


    After Jiang Laien recovered, she looked at her instant: ¡°Call 120!¡±

 CH 46.5

    ¡°Okay, okay!¡± The front desk clerk opened her eyes, gulped hard, then hurriedly took out her mobile phone.


    Then, Jiang Laien picked up a medicine bottle on the ground and saw that it was sleeping pills. Looking at the inside and the remaining amount scattered on the ground, she probably didn¡¯t eat many. It was probably not that she wanted to die, but she drank too much alcohol, and when the two combined, it was easy to get into trouble.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the front desk clerk, turned her head, and stretched her trembling hand under Chen Lulu¡¯s nose to check for breath. Fortunately, she was breathing, but it was still scary. At that moment, Ye Kehuan only felt that her whole body was dominated by a kind of fear. She had read all kinds of news and heard about thousands of deaths, but never thought that that kind of thing would happen to those around her, especially to Chen Lulu.


    Putting her hands together, Ye Kehuan put her hands on her lips and fixedly looked at Chen Lulu in front of her, her whole body trembling.


    ¡°Kehuan¡­¡± Jiang Laien put her hand on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder and squatted down, ¡°She must be fine.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, then let out a sigh of relief, her eyes flushed.


    After a while, once 120 arrived, Chen Lulu was taken to an ambulance. After arriving at the hospital, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien completed the procedures for her together, and then Chen Lulu began to undergo examinations and gastric lavage.


    During the whole process, Ye Kehuan seemed a little upset. After all, Chen Lulu was her best friend. The two had known each other for more than ten years. Every time Ye Kehuan encountered a problem, Chen Lulu would not hesitate to stand up for her. Every time Ye Kehuan felt down, Chen Lulu always was the best listener. Sometimes Ye Kehuan felt that Chen Lulu really looked like a bodhisattva. However, she never expected that she would be like this one day.


    Jiang Laien sat next to Ye Kehuan and didn¡¯t know what to say, so she just lightly leaned her head on her shoulder and breathed quietly.


    She didn¡¯t know how much time passed before the gastric lavage was over. Ye Kehuan stood up immediately when the doctor came out and looked at him questioningly.


    The doctor looked at Ye Kehuan and said, ¡°Your friend has no problems. She didn¡¯t take much medicine, but she drank too much alcohol. The alcohol and medicine combined to cause acute poisoning. However, she should be fine after five to twelve hours, and she will wake up. Remember to urge her to drink less in the future.¡±


    ¡°Okay¡­ Thank you, doctor.¡± Ye Kehuan finally let out the breath she was holding.


    Then, Chen Lulu was pushed out of the operating room and transferred to the ward, still unconscious. Chen Lulu, who had no makeup, who was poisoned and had a stomach wash, looked particularly haggard at that time.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked in together, watched the nurse put her on the bed, looked at each other, and both frowned.


    After the nurse finished hanging up the IV, she explained some precautions to Ye Kehuan, and then went out.


    Seeing that the door was closed, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her forehead: ¡°Although the doctor said that there will be no trouble, I still can¡¯t figure out why she drank so much alcohol, what was the trouble? If whatever is weighing on her heart is not lifted, wouldn¡¯t it be easy for her to make this mistake happen again?¡±


    ¡°Could it be because of the barbecue shop owner?¡± Jiang Laien thought for a moment, staring at Chen Lulu, and said softly.


    Chen Lulu sent that back the night before last, probably just to see the boss. Then she poisoned herself by drinking.


    Ye Kehuan put down her hands and looked at her: ¡°It¡¯s possible.¡±


    Thinking of this, Ye Kehuan frowned, then opened a takeaway app and found the barbecue restaurant.


    ¡°What are you going to do?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°I want to know what happened, so I have to ask her to be clear.¡± After speaking, Ye Kehuan walked out of the ward and dialed the phone number.


    Jiang Laien looked at her back with worry in her eyes, and then sat next to Chen Lulu, staring at her, and sighed slightly. Fortunately, Ye Kehuan had a strong hunch, otherwise, something bad might have really happened. Even if she didn¡¯t die, her body might become useless.


    Outside the door, once Ye Kehuan dialed out the number, it took a while before the other party answered, ¡°Hello?¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re the owner of Four Seasons BBQ?¡± Ye Kehuan leaned against the wall with arms folded.


    ¡°Well, I¡¯m sorry, we¡¯re closed today.¡± The barbecue shop owner said in a cold voice.


    ¡°I¡¯m not talking about that,¡± Ye Kehuan let out a long breath, ¡°Chen Lulu knows you, right?¡±


    ¡°Knows.¡± The boss said concisely, and she couldn¡¯t tell what kind of feelings were in it.


    ¡°I am her friend, and I want to know, what happened between you before?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    This time, the boss was silent for a long time before asking, ¡°Why do you ask?¡±


    ¡°She took sleeping pills and drank a lot of alcohol, enough to cause poisoning, and now I sent her to the hospital. I really can¡¯t think of anything that would make her drink like that, unless it¡¯s because of you.¡± Ye Kehuan kept frowning.


    At that time, Ji Changge, who was still cooking soup in the kitchen, suddenly stopped stirring, raised her head, and looked at the white wall under the range hood. After a moment, her voice was slightly hoarse as she said, ¡°Which hospital?¡±


    One minute later, Ji Changge hung up the phone, pressed her lips, and stared straight at the boiling soup pot. After that, she turned off the fire, raised her hand to cover her mouth and coughed, turned pale and left the kitchen, walking to the sofa to grab a black coat and put it on. She went to the hallway to put on her shoes, opened the door, and walked out. She slammed the door shut with a bang.


    After Ji Changge rushed to the door of the hospital ward, she stopped and breathed deeply. Then she looked down and turned the doorknob, opened the door, and walked in.


    After hearing the movement, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien looked at her together. They only felt that she was thinner than the last time they saw her, and she seemed to be less energetic. Ye Kehuan originally wanted to ask her what happened between them, but seeing her appearance, she didn¡¯t speak, just turned her head around, stared at Chen Lulu on the bed, and tucked her quilt.


    Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s silent and serious profile, then looked at Ji Changge, and nodded at her: ¡°You came?¡±


    ¡°Well,¡± Ji Changge stretched her legs and walked towards the hospital bed. She fixed her eyes on Chen Lulu for a long while before lowering her head. ¡°What did the doctor say?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing serious, but I personally think that compared to this, her emotional instability is more terrifying.¡± Jiang Laien sighed softly.


    After listening, Ji Changge turned to the side and said to herself: ¡°I thought it would be better for her.¡±


    ¡°Do what?¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head abruptly and looked at her suspiciously, ¡°What does this sentence mean?¡±


    ¡°I just want her to understand that I won¡¯t like her. Instead of doing useless work here, she should take back those thoughts as soon as possible, be more decisive and cut them off,¡± Ji Changge said softly, ¡°I am just avoiding wasting her time and her youth. I am not worthy of her pursuit.¡±


    What Ji Changge said made sense, and Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t refute it. After all, dislike means dislike, and rejection is also allowed. If she didn¡¯t like her but still didn''t refuse, she would be scum. It could only be said that Chen Lulu was too unlucky.


    ¡°But¡­¡± At that time, Jiang Laien broke the calm of the room.


    Ye Kehuan and Ji Changge both looked at her and waited for the follow up.


    ¡°Excuse me, you still care about her, don¡¯t you?¡± Jiang Laien said softly, ¡°At least when I went to your place to eat, I never saw you give snacks to other people in the line. And, if you didn¡¯t care about her at all, you don¡¯t need to come here. Even if you met in the past, whether she is alive or dead, it has nothing to do with you, right?¡±


    Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that Jiang Laien was really too powerful in perceiving emotions and guessing people¡¯s hearts.


    ¡°Miss Jiang,¡± Ji Changge turned to look at her at that moment, ¡°You think too much.¡±


    Seeing her answer very firmly, Jiang Laien nodded and smiled: ¡°Okay, I¡¯ve offended.¡±


    Ji Changge shook her head and said nothing.


    TL/N


    Two reasons for cutting this chapter in half. One, it was pretty long, and I didn¡¯t feel like doing it all in one shot. The other, there¡¯s a nice amount of dramatic tension with Chen Lulu¡¯s life in the balance, and wasting it by proving her fine immediately felt like, well, a waste.

 CH 47

    After the atmosphere between them fell into silence for a while, Jiang Laien spoke again: ¡°There is a stool here, please sit down.¡±


    ¡°Thank you.¡± Ji Changge sat down.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head slightly to look at her, and decided against saying anything, then quietly looked at Chen Lulu on the bed.


    Time gradually passed, and while they weren¡¯t paying attention, it turned past 11 o¡¯clock at night. The nurse came in and changed the IV bag several times, but Chen Lulu still did not wake up.


    Ji Changge bit her fingernails and looked at her, her eyes gloomy.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien sat down and took a nap. Before she knew it, she leaned her head on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder. She woke up suddenly and continued to sit up. However, it could still be seen that she was really sleepy.


    Ye Kehuan saw that and put her hand around her waist: ¡°Are you sleepy? Do you want to go back to sleep?¡±


    ¡°A little bit,¡± Jiang Laien rubbed her eyes, ¡°I¡¯m okay.¡±


    Ji Changge saw them and looked at them: ¡°Go back. Are you not actors? You should be very busy. I¡¯ll just be here to watch.¡±


    Jiang Laien watched Ji Changge and looked to Ye Kehuan again, only to feel that her eyes were too hard to open. She slept a bit too late the night before, and got up too early. She might have been okay if she was moving around, but just sitting there, she really wanted to sleep.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan looked at Chen Lulu one last time, then patted Jiang Laien on the back again: ¡°Laien, let¡¯s go back and sleep.¡±


    ¡°But you are very worried about Lulu¡­¡± Jiang Laien opened her eyes vigorously.


    ¡°The doctor said that she¡¯s okay. Besides, the boss is here. Let¡¯s go back. You will sleep more comfortably in a bed.¡± Ye Kehuan said softly.


    Ye Kehuan sighed, stood up, and after getting Jiang Laien to the door, she looked at Ji Changge: ¡°Then I will ask you first. We will get up at about three in the morning tomorrow. If Lulu wakes up, just let me know.¡±


    ¡°How can I contact you?¡¯ Ji Changge asked.


    Ye Kehuan pulled up WeChat: ¡°Give me your WeChat QR code.¡±


    Ji Changge lowered her head, took out her mobile phone, pulled up her WeChat QR code, and lifted it up in the air.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll go first.¡± After scanning Ji Changge as a friend, Ye Kehuan stared at her.


    ¡°Okay, let me watch here.¡± Ji Changge looked at the hospital bed.


    Ye Kehuan nodded, and walked out of the ward with Jiang Laien.


    After watching the ward door open and close again, Ji Changge sat in Ye Kehuan¡¯s former position and fixedly looked at Chen Lulu on the bed.


    After a while, Ji Changge closed her eyes and lowered her head, breathing slightly heavily: ¡°What do you want me to do?¡±


    After talking to herself, Ji Changge looked at her motionlessly again: ¡°I am a mess with everything, and I don¡¯t know what you see in me.¡±


    After that, Ji Changge didn¡¯t say anything, just sighed and stared at Chen Lulu on the bed motionlessly.


    The night sky outside the window was like ink. As time went by, the night became deeper and quieter, and it was as if the air was condensed, and everything was like a deep sleep, and without knowing it, Ji Changge was also a bit sleepy.


    After Chen Lulu¡¯s consciousness gradually recovered, she only felt dizzy and nauseous, and felt uncomfortable everywhere in her body.


    Opening her eyes vigorously, Chen Lulu squinted at the ceiling, trying to move her body, but found that her body was a little unwilling and her stomach felt uncomfortable. After biting her lip and humming, Chen Lulu turned her head and saw a woman with medium-length hair and black coat lying on her bed and sleeping.


    ¡°Ji Changge?¡± Chen Lulu glanced at her, scanned the ward again, and finally looked at the infusion tube next to her bed, a little surprised.


    What was wrong with her? Looking at this, isn¡¯t this the hospital? Chen Lulu¡¯s brain was a little slow. She only remembered that she took sleeping pills because she couldn¡¯t sleep, but still couldn¡¯t sleep after eating them, so she ordered a lot of alcohol and drank it all, and then swallowed more sleeping pills, and then she couldn¡¯t remember what happened next. Ugh, I just want a good night¡¯s sleep, why did I wake up here?


    After swallowing hard, Chen Lulu, who had some discomfort in her throat, looked at the woman who was sleeping beside her again. Was it really Ji Changge? Why was she there? Was this all her own imagination or was it real? Chen Lulu looked at her again, and then gradually reached out her hand, put it on Ji Changge¡¯s hair, and carefully touched it.


    At that moment, Ji Changge¡¯s body trembled suddenly, then she frowned, grabbed Chen Lulu¡¯s hand, and slowly raised her head.


    The moment when her hand was grasped and she saw her familiar eyes, Chen Lulu was at a loss: ¡°Changge¡­¡±


    ¡°Are you uncomfortable anywhere?¡± Ji Changge asked.


    Chen Lulu frowned and opened her mouth, only to feel that her throat was burning like fire: ¡°It¡¯s very uncomfortable in my stomach and throat¡­¡±


    Ji Changge nodded, her eyes piercing like ice skates, but there was some fine red blood in her eyes: ¡°If I don¡¯t agree with you, you decide to behave like this, not taking your health seriously--are you happy?¡±


    She wanted to say something nice, but suddenly she was so angry that she really wanted to cut through Chen Lulu¡¯s head to see what was going on inside.


    Chen Lulu opened her eyes wide and looked at her. She took a deep breath, but couldn¡¯t let it out, and it just caught in her throat so she just looked at her with her lips tightly pressed.


    ¡°I told you a long time ago that you should drink less alcohol, why did you still drink and take medicine? Can psychiatric drugs be eaten like candy? If you have even a bit of conscience, what would you do if you let down the people who care about you?¡± Ji Changge¡¯s expression was as severe as a parent''s.


    ¡°I just wanted to get a good night¡¯s sleep, because the night passed inadvertently, and the morning did too. I was clearly sleepy, but I still couldn¡¯t sleep¡­¡± Chen Lulu suddenly blocked her nose, and then her eyes. There were also some tears, like glass beads soaked in water. While speaking, Chen Lulu looked at Ji Changge again, ¡°Who cares about me¡­ Does that also include you?¡±


    Ji Changge looked at her for a moment, and finally turned her head to one side: ¡°Including me.¡±


    In the middle of the night, after Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked out of the hospital gate, they were covered with a layer of dust by the cold wind blowing in the midwinter. The noisy and prosperous city in the daytime fell into the middle of the night, and under the cover of dim yellow street lights, it became extremely quiet and lonely.


    Seeing Jiang Laien shivering next to her, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand and pulled her clothes and hat over her head: ¡°I really don¡¯t know what you are thinking, wearing so little, are you not afraid of catching a cold?¡±


    ¡°To look good¡­¡± Jiang Laien replied with a guilty conscience.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want you to become sick.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s expression became a little serious when she thought of Chen Lulu. She didn¡¯t want the people around her to get sick or anything. ¡°But you would be accompanying me, so it might be your win.¡±


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you my girlfriend? Don¡¯t say anything so embarrassing.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head to look at her quickly and glared at her.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan smiled, and suddenly stretched out her hand to press on her left shoulder and bent down towards her: ¡°Yes, my girlfriend.¡±


    Seeing her suddenly making such a move, Jiang Laien raised her hand and scratched the hair around her eyes, and cleared her throat: ¡°You are really an old sow wearing a bra, going through one set after another.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned for half a second. What is this metaphor?


    ¡°Nothing!¡± Jiang Laien said, jumping down the stone steps, standing on the side of the road and starting to use some software to call a taxi.


    Ye Kehuan stared at her back, and couldn¡¯t help smiling slightly and she walked towards her quickly.


    After a while, Jiang Laien gazed at the wide and empty street in front of her, and sighed with relief: ¡°I still feel that the owner of the barbecue restaurant is actually very caring about Lulu. If she was not, well, she didn¡¯t need to come. It¡¯s not good to say, but if I were her and didn¡¯t like Lulu, then, even if Lulu died, I wouldn¡¯t care.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded, then raised her hand to scratch the hair around her ears: ¡°That¡¯s right, if it is someone I don¡¯t care about, I won¡¯t care at all. So, should Lulu still have hope?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know. If the boss likes her, and she knows that she likes her, but also rejects her, then the troublesomeness of the matter may be more serious than we thought. It is also uncertain.¡± Jiang Laien put her hands in her pockets.


    Ye Kehuan looked sideways at Jiang Laien. After a while, she stretched out her hand and gently wrapped it around her shoulder, and continued to look at her beautiful side up-close. Even though Jiang Laien was wearing a mask, just looking at her exposed smart eyes, it was already charming enough.


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Jiang Laien looked sideways at her, ¡°Looking at me with such a lustful squint.¡±


    ¡°This is called lustful squinting, huh?¡± Ye Kehuan deliberately moved closer to her again, her eyes still fixing on Jiang Laien¡¯s, ¡°I¡¯ll say, what are you thinking about in your little head?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s you, I¡¯m not,¡± Jiang Laien suddenly choked. At that time, a bright white car light came over, illuminating a small area, and Jiang Laien finally walked toward the car as if she had been rescued. ¡°I won¡¯t tell you, get in the car.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled as she watched Jiang Laien¡¯s beautiful figure jumping around, and then stepped away lazily with her into the car.


    Along the way, the car dove very smoothly. Ye Kehuan looked at the scene moving back gradually, then turned her head to look at Jiang Laien who was sitting next to her. When Jiang Laien was napping incessantly, she smiled slightly and moved her head over to make her lean against her shoulder.


    Under the breaking inertia, Jiang Laien woke up inadvertently and found herself leaning on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder. She was stunned for a second or two without speaking. She just pursed her lips and smiled and leaned on her warmth. She continued to close her eyes and fell asleep.


    When they arrived at Huazhi B&B, it was almost midnight. As soon as the two of them went upstairs, Ye Kehuan received a message from Ji Changge with a simple sentence: ¡°She is awake, everything is fine. I will be with her these days, don¡¯t worry.¡±


    After reading it, Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief.


    ¡°What?¡± Jiang Laien brushed the door and turned to look at her.


    ¡°Lulu is awake.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and poked her forehead.


    ¡°That¡¯s good, thank God.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s heart finally relaxed.


    ¡°Then, it¡¯s not too early now. Since you are so sleepy, take a shower and go to bed early.¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her watch and stroked her hair.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, and then suddenly thought of something, so she hurriedly said, ¡°Wait!¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan, who had just turned around, stopped immediately after hearing her voice and turned around.


    ¡°I still want to post on Weibo about that matter, but found that neither of us had a picture taken together.¡± Jiang Laien held her phone and pulled her hair behind her ears. In fact, posting on Weibo was secondary. The point was that she really wanted to have a picture with Ye Kehuan. They were already lovers, but they had no photos. No matter how she thought about it, it wasn¡¯t right.


    ¡°Want to take a selfie with me?¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    ¡°My, my only point is to post on Weibo, no need for a selfie!¡± Jiang Laien glared at her and hurriedly denied it.


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and surrendered: ¡°Okay, okay, what you say is what you say. Then, shall we take on now?¡±


    ¡°Whatever you want, I¡¯m not afraid to take pictures¡­¡± Jiang Laien said as she unlocked her door and walked in, turning on the central air conditioner.


    Ye Kehuan folded her arms, smiled again, followed her and walked in, then closed the door and put her bag aside: ¡°Shoot, of course.¡±


    After changing her shoes, Jiang Laien looked at her, pursed her lips, and smiled. She ran to a place with a good light source, and waved her mobile phone: ¡±Come here.¡±


    Ye Kehuan also smiled, then walked to her side and stood still, staring at the phone screen motionlessly.


    Jiang Laien felt that something was wrong while holding the phone, bot horizontally and vertically, because she and Ye Kehuan were a little far apart in height, which would make her look like a **** of the earth. Forced, Jiang Laien had to turn her head to look at her: ¡°Can you squat for a while?¡¯


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan followed instructions, and squatted on the ground without saying anything.


    Jiang Laien looked at the empty camera picture of a second and was stunned, and then looked down at Ye Kehuan, who was squatting on the ground next to her, and smashed her forehead with her mobile phone in a dumbfounded manner: ¡°I didn¡¯t mean that, ah, my goodness.¡±


    Ye Kehuan froze, stood up again, raised her hand to touch her earlobe, her face stunned: ¡°That¡¯s it?¡±


    ¡°You should squat a little bit shorter, and lower the gap with me¡­ Forget it, I¡¯ll save myself.¡± Jiang Laien said, turning around to take out a pair of ten-centimeter high heels from the shoe cabinet and wearing them. Going back to Ye Kehuan again, she turned on the beauty camera on the phone again, and continued to mutter, ¡°You are really something. You can¡¯t take selfies, don¡¯t know the beauty camera, and can¡¯t put on makeup. Your collection is also messy. Every day you wear dark casual clothes and ponytails and show the world. Did you know that many fans look at your face in particular? This face does not refer to your appearance alone, but also your whole¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned by what she said, but still keenly felt that she was dissed, so she immediately said, ¡°Then will you teach me?¡±


    ¡°Let¡¯s talk more when you have time,¡± Jiang Laien sighed and raised her phone again, ¡°Get closer to me.¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed, then moved closer to her.


    ¡°Closer,¡± Jiang Laien kept sighing, ¡°You have to act like my sister, not as if we are separated by a sea of blood and deep enmity. If you posted it like this, netizens will definitely jump on it. We are some business-oriented plastic sisters who conceal knives in laughter.¡±


    ¡°The point is to look intimate?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her chin, raising her eyebrows.


    Jiang Laien nodded, wondering what she was thinking.


    ¡°For example,¡± Ye Kehuan walked behind Jiang Laien at that time, then stretched out her arm and stretched forward from Jiang Laien¡¯s shoulders, and when she pulled back, she gently hugged her shoulders and brought her into her arms. Her voice was low, ¡°Such a posture?¡±


    Jiang Laien was stunned for a moment, and the hand holding her phone couldn¡¯t help tightening. She only felt that her whole body was a little warm under her envelopment, and she could not help but bite her lower lip: ¡°Hmm¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m suddenly curious, do you just want netizens to think we are close, or do you like this posture?¡± Ye Kehuan asked softly, looking at her white earlobes.


    Under the lingering breath of Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien¡¯s heartbeat began to speed up again: ¡°What are you talking about¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh when looking at her little arrogant appearance.


    ¡°Anyway, let¡¯s take a few.¡± Jiang Laien said, and after finishing her thoughts, she raised her phone again.


    After taking a few consecutive shots, Ye Kehuan approached her ear again and asked, ¡°Okay, do you want to take more intimate shots?¡±


    Jiang Laien found it hard to breathe under her breath. She couldn¡¯t help turning her head to look at her, but saw that there seemed to be some kind of inexplicably undercurrent in her eyes at that time.


    After a while, Jiang Laien turned her head: ¡°I don¡¯t understand what you are talking about.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll demonstrate it.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking in a low voice, she suddenly turned her face back. Afterwards, Ye Kehuan stared at her moist lips for a moment, and then kissed her in the next second.


    The author has something to say: Jiang Laien: ¡°I knew you had bad intentions!¡±


    The translator has something to say: Does anyone know how to update this story on Novelupdates? I tried making an account but gave up quickly.

 CH 48

    Originally, Ye Kehuan just wanted to stop, but once she started, she didn¡¯t know what happened. She found that even if she wanted to stop, she couldn¡¯t stop herself. Jiang Laien¡¯s breath, everything about her, was constantly hitting her, disturbing her sanity, making her want more and more, and making her breathing increasingly heavy.


    Before they knew it, the two kissed for several minutes.


    Under such a strong and intoxicating kiss, Jiang Laien gradually dissolved into Ye Kehuan¡¯s world like water, but still felt that it was not enough. It was like a drug, and she obsessed over the feeling. As they continued to deepen, finally, in the interweaving of each other¡¯s warm breath, Jiang Laien felt a kind of drowning.


    They didn¡¯t know how long it took, but finally, the two people gradually separated.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s white skin was already dusted with a crimson color, and it was even more charming. She looked like the first blooming branches of spring, flowers stained by morning dew.


    Ye Kehuan fluttered her long eyelashes and looked at her face with a smile: ¡°Do you understand now?¡±


    After Jiang Laien slowly recovered, she half-opened her eyes, seemingly filled with smoke and slightly blurry, and she still insisted: ¡°I don¡¯t understand.¡±


    Ye Kehuan lowered her head, smiled, and let go of her: ¡°Really?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t laugh.¡± Jiang Laien coughed softly, then turned her red-hot face to the side.


    Ye Kehuan wanted to say something, but at that time, her mobile phone rang with a message alert. So Ye Kehuan had to take it out.


    She saw a message from Cheng Xin on the screen of the phone: ¡°Although the company has already bought a marketing account and sent a bunch of pictures and texts to testify to your friendship, the effect is still not very good. Jiang Laien is too hot, and the size of this melon seed is too large. After being magnified, the public still laughed at us fiercely. At a glance, they knew that we were washing, but you just need to not take any reckless actions.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was dumbfounded for a while, and suddenly wanted to laugh, so she replied, ¡°You can rest assured.¡±


    Cheng Xin: ¡°What is going on with you and Jiang Laien? Weren¡¯t you fine before?¡±


    Ye Kehuan also tilted her head and looked at it for a long time, then replied: ¡°Sister Cheng, I and Laien are fine.¡±


    Cheng Xin: ¡°Laien Laien, do you know that your name for her is about to become a black spot? Everyone says that your face is too thick-skinned, and you don¡¯t even know how to recognize seniority. You neither call her Teacher Jiang nor call her Senior Jiang and don¡¯t know how high the sky is.¡±


    Upon seeing that, Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her temple. She also saw that today. There were some good things. Netizens also specially cut out the program pictures they recorded, and compared her with others. They said that other younger generations respected Jaing Laien¡¯s name, but she was the only one calling her by name, and it made people feel uncomfortable. It was really a wall that no one cared about at first, but was getting pushed by them all now.


    In addition, Ye Kehuan¡¯s previous ¡°black material¡±, ¡°experience¡±, and so on, were constantly rattling around out there. Even more ridiculous, there were even rumors that the reason why she got her role in ¡°Black Bites¡± was because she made some shameful deals. After all, Ye Kehuan¡¯s bad acting skills were well-known.


    As for what the transaction was, everyone¡¯s speculation was all being traded, because judging from what Ye Kehuan wore, everyone didn¡¯t think she would be from a rich background. As a result, everyone¡¯s brains became bigger, and they began to think about whether Ye Kehuan¡¯s previous resources were all obtained like that.


    As for Ye Kehuan¡¯s fans, some expressed that they wanted to get rid of their fan status, and some retorted that if Ye Kehuan really did those transactions, then how could she be so abused in terms of resources. It was a pity that after being incited, there were far more people who went crazy than stayed sane. To be honest, although Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t care what others thought of her, she still cared about her fans.


    Although some idol¡¯s fans were iron-wrought and quenched with time, everyone would experience such things from their fans, from being deafened to turned black and trampled on, but when it happened, it still made her feel very depressed.


    However, thinking of those who were still desperately defending her at that time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s heart suddenly became warm again. Fortunately, with them, she was fearless.


    On the screen, Cheng Xin sent another message: ¡°Anyway, you should be good, don¡¯t be stiff with Jiang Laien. She is a huge thigh, and you have to hug it, don¡¯t you know?¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and brushed her hair, a little bit dumbfounded. She was really bad a hugging the thigh, but she was good at hugging Jiang Laien.


    After replying to Cheng Xin perfunctory, and after agreeing to her various instructions, Ye Kehuan put the phone back in her pocket and looked at Jiang Laien.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± She didn¡¯t know if it was because the temperature inside the room had risen or something. Jiang Laien really felt that it was much hotter now than when she entered the room. Unable to bear it, Jiang Laien had to take off her jacket and throw it aside.


    Ye Kehuan stood in place, but her eyes moved along with Jiang Laien¡¯s actions: ¡°Sister Cheng sent a message, telling me not to be stiff with you, and told me to hug your thigh.¡±


    ¡°Thighs.¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but laugh, glance at her, then pick up her phone and started to post to Weibo.


    After picking and choosing, Jiang Laien selected three group photos that could barely pass for acceptable, and posted them on Weibo with a post saying: ¡°@ActorYeKehuan This fool thinks that my winter clothes are too thin, so she drags me along all the time. She went to buy such a big cotton suit that is so thick that I can¡¯t lift my arms¡­ Warm is warm, but it¡¯s ugly--really ugly. I think I need to improve her aesthetics.¡±


    ¡°Sent it out?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien rubbed her lips with her hand, and began to look at the comments after posting.


    There were so many night owls. Even at that point, her comments continued to increase. Every time she refreshed, the comments had doubled.


    Netizen Xiao Honghua: ¡°Look at this post, the return of a missing person?!¡±


    Netizen Jasmine Tea: ¡°Oh my God, a rare selfie! So, does this mean that you have a good relationship?¡±


    Netizen Can Be Sweet Or Salty: ¡°AWSL, my CP is real! So sweet!¡± 1


    ¡­


    However, gradually, some discordant voices also appeared. Some people who thought that everyone was drunk and they alone knew all began to speculate that Jiang Laien posted because Ye Kehuan did the show and created a CP and their new movie was being filmed together. Because it was difficult to get off a tiger once ridden, she just cooperated. Some believed and some didn¡¯t.


    After Jiang Laien rubbed her chin and looked at it for a while, she just wanted to laugh. Why did some people always like to speculate on others maliciously like that? Sometimes seeing was not necessarily true, let alone such unfounded ¡°speculations¡±. By the way, there were also some people who just like to listen to such crazy stories.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but curl her lips when she looked at Jiang Laien, who had been standing there attentively flipping through her phone. How could Jiang Laien be so cute, cute when she kisses her, cute when she scolds her, cute when taking selfies, and cute when defending her, so cute that she could find no fault.


    ¡°Will you continue to watch?¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her mobile phone screen, put her arm on her shoulder, and played with her hair casually.


    ¡°I¡­¡± Jiang Laien turned her head, but saw ye Kehuan smiled softly but with a little evil intent. She didn¡¯t know if it was from the angle or what, but Jiang Laien kept feeling that Ye Kehuan really got more and more charming the more she looked, making her fall deeper¡­


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    ¡°So what if I watch it, so what if I don¡¯t?¡± Jiang Laien squeezed her phone tightly.


    ¡°If we don¡¯t watch it, maybe we can do something else.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    ¡°What else?¡± Jiang Laien turned her head, her body temperature continuing to rise, ¡°I really don¡¯t understand what you are talking about.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her soft face for a moment, then took her mobile phone, threw it to one side of the bed, approached her, smiled a little harmlessly, a little evil: ¡°Really? But I think that you know it well. Look at yourself now, dare you to say that you are not thinking about anything right now?¡±


    Evil was that the temperament of Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyebrows were too attractive as she spoke, or because the smell on her body was too attractive, Jiang Laien suddenly felt that she had lit a fire in the depths of her body, and the fire was gradually changing. Once it became vigorous, she wouldn¡¯t be able to suppress it at all, and it had the potential to become a raging prairie fire. Except for being intolerable, she couldn¡¯t find any other words to describe her feelings at that moment.


    ¡°Is there¡­¡± Jiang Laien suddenly raised her chin, stretched out her slender left hand and pressed it on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder, her pink lips open slightly, ¡°Then you are going to tell me what I am thinking now.¡±


    Facing Jiang Laien¡¯s suddenly proactive approach, Ye Kehuan was stunned for a moment, only to feel that Jiang Laien at that moment was a bit coquettish and pure, and her eyes seemed to have hook in them, which made Ye Kehuan feel itchy. She also felt like a beast in her heart was awakening, and her throat was extremely dry.


    ¡°Of course you missed me.¡± Ye Kehuan held the corners of her lips.


    ¡°We stay together every day, when did I miss you?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s soft arms hooked to her shoulders and neck.


    ¡°What do I mean?¡± Ye Kehuan gulped, ¡°I mean, you are expecting me to do something to you.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien frowned and bit her lower lip: ¡°You are talking nonsense.¡±


    ¡°Oh? Then you¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t wait for Ye Kehuan to finish speaking, and suddenly leaned forward and kissed Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s kiss was very gentle, like a trickling stream. Although the momentum was not strong, it was devoted to catching people¡¯s hearts. After the kiss, Jiang Laien opened her eyes slightly, looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s chin, and moved closer to the corner of her lips: ¡°I¡¯m thinking, how should I eat you¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± At the same time, Ye Kehuan opened her eyes and suddenly tightened the arms that were originally around her back. ¡°How?¡±


    Jiang Laien gulped, her eyes falling from her eyes to the tall bridge of her nose and her smooth and delicate chin, moving down inch by inch. She was suddenly curious, what kind of picture would a shameless person like Ye Kehuan make when completely occupied by her? Would she still be as calm as she was now? Or would there be an unexpected contrast?¡±


    Thinking of that, finally, Jiang Laien suddenly pushed her aside.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t expect that she would suddenly act like that, staggering a little, and then sticking to the wall. Then, in the next second, a slender arm reached the wall on her left.


    Immediately afterwards, Jiang Laien approached her with a faint fragrance of perfume, raised her other hand, and hooked her chin: ¡°Didn¡¯t you read a lot of messy books, don¡¯t you know what it means?¡±


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but smile, stretch out her hand to hold her wrist, and gradually pulled her hand down, her eyes full of ambiguity, and she approached her ear: ¡°I read the scriptures, but listening to what you imply, you seem to have watched a lot of shameless people?¡±


    Breathing the scattered hair around her ears, Jiang Laien closed her eyes and raised her chin. Her light voice was no longer stable: ¡°You can continue to pretend to be pure¡­¡±


    ¡°I was pretty pure at first, but look, what did you do?¡± Ye Kehuan continued to whisper in Jiang Laien¡¯s ear.


    ¡°You¡¯re really too shameless. Saying this, won¡¯t your conscience hurt?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s breathing gradually became quicker, and her arms supporting her on the wall became weak.


    Ye Kehuan did not refute her, nor did she answer. She just rubbed Jiang Laien¡¯s ear again in the next second, and said in a low voice, ¡°You smell really good.¡±


    As a result, Jiang Laien¡¯s arm couldn¡¯t support her on the wall anymore, and her body staggered, but at that moment, she was suddenly pulled into the arms of Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Laien gulped again and again, feeling that the temperature was so high that her skin was about to burn, and her pupils suddenly tightened.


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°Don¡¯t fall. Look, your body acted more honestly than your mouth.¡±


    Jiang Laien bit her lips and looked at her, then stroked Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulders and neck, and immediately kissed Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips, sealing her messy words back inside. This time, Jiang Laien was different from usual. She became a lot more domineering. Under her entanglement, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her breathing was much heavier than before.


    After that, Jiang Laien panted and loosened her hold slightly, stretched out her hand to gently press on her slightly parted lips, and smiled: ¡°Do you dare to say that when I kissed you, you didn¡¯t react at all?¡±


    But at that moment, Ye Kehuan gently pulled down her hand again, and the emotions in her eyes became thicker, making her eyes deeper and deeper. Finally, Ye Kehuan hugged Jiang Laien into her arms: ¡°Of course, especially now, I want you more than ever.¡±


    Although Ye Kehuan hadn¡¯t said anything yet, when Jiang Laien heard her words, she couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. The redness on her face became more and more brilliant, and she didn¡¯t wait for her to recover--Ye Kehuan had already picked her up. The silence outside the window was as cold as an ice cave, while the temperature in the room was as high as roiling lava.


    The author has something to say: I really don¡¯t understand what Jinjiang¡¯s adult standards are.

 CH 49

    When she arrived at the bed, Jiang Laien put her hands on both sides, stepped back a little, and looked at the woman in front of her: ¡°But, it¡¯s not the time right now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan knelt on the bed with one leg, leaned down, and leaned close to her charming face: ¡°That¡¯s it? So what?¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s chin was slightly raised, and her breathing was unstable, and her voice slipped: ¡°It won¡¯t be long before it¡¯s time to go the the studio, don¡¯t you want to take a nap?¡±


    Indeed, it was really late by then. Both of them had not rested for the whole day, and, when it was three o¡¯clock, they had to go film again.


    After looking at her quietly for a while, Ye Kehuan lowered her head and stretched out her hand to stroke her arm upwards slowly: ¡°Are you sleepy?¡±


    Jiang Laien gulped again, and she wanted to say no, but in the end she just nodded nonchalantly.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan lifted her lips slightly and put them close to her ear: ¡°Then, take a good rest for tomorrow, Defense Minister.¡±


    Jiang Laien was no fool either. She naturally understood what she meant. She just felt that Ye Kehuan was getting more and more unbridled with her, so she twitched her lips: ¡°Yes, we¡¯ll have plenty of time in the future.¡±


    Seeing her act like a little cat, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh, and said again: ¡°What¡¯s wrong, acting so cold? Shouldn¡¯t you say goodbye to your girlfriend?¡±


    Jiang Laien glanced sideways at her again and brushed her hair back.


    ¡°Or, do you want me to sleep with you?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her with a smile in her eyes.


    ¡°Sleep together?¡¯ Jiang Laien looked at her, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice, ¡°Whatever you want.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed: ¡°Then I will sleep right here.¡±


    Jiang Laien glanced at her: ¡°It¡¯s not that I wasn¡¯t letting you sleep here.¡±


    Ye Kehuan lowered her head and smiled again, pulled off her jacket and put it in her arms, then leaned down and kissed Jiang Laien¡¯s forehead: ¡°Then you go wash first.¡±


    The kiss was very soft, and Ye Kehuan stared at her soft cheeks after kissing her, and the corners of her lips couldn¡¯t help lifting in a slight smile.


    Jiang Laien kept feeling that she was crazy. She found that as long as Ye Kehuan made any move, no matter how shameless, it would always make her heart pound. As long as she met Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes, her whole world would fall into a chaos without rules or boundaries.


    Then, Jiang Laien hummed again, got up from the bed, and walked towards the bathroom with her clothes.


    And what she didn¡¯t know was Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze following her almost the whole time. She had to say that Jiang Laien¡¯s figure, when she was wearing close-fitted clothes and light-blue pencil pants looked really beautiful. Every inch of her curves were outlined gracefully, and she had a kind of inexplicable charm when she moved. Just looking tested her control.


    Ye Kehuan took her phone and sat on the sofa until Jiang Laien entered, and then opened the Weibo that Jiang Laien had posted.


    In a short period of time, the amount of likes and comments on the Weibo had already reached a crazy point, and by daytime, it should have increased several times over. Jiang Laien¡¯s hardcore fans and passerby-fans were really so numerous they couldn¡¯t be counted.


    Ye Kehuan smiled, and then transferred the selfie that Jiang Laien had sent to get and posted it on Weibo with the sentence: ¡°You think that the clothes I bought for you are ugly? Am I ugly? Huh?¡±


    After posting, Ye Kehuan refreshed, and soon someone commented below.


    Netizen Yu¡¯er Loves to Eat Shrimp: ¡°Sister Huan, you really have a problem with your aesthetics. It seems that Jiang Laien really loves you. She also wore such clothes, haha!¡±


    Netizen Dreamer: ¡°It seems that the relationship between the two of you is really good. Can those who spread the rumors shut up now?¡±


    Netizen Lightly Gray Skies: ¡°Uwu, great. I¡¯ve been worried about you all day. There are so many vicious words against you out there. I¡¯m so angry. Seeing that you are all right, I can finally sleep at ease. I have to go to work tomorrow, wooo~¡±


    ¡­


    After Ye Kehuan saw them, she sighed softly. Being so cared about was something that she had never dared to think about before. Thinking about that, Ye Kehuan replied to several people one by one, asking them to go to bed early and avoid conflicts with rumormongers. A good mood was the most important thing.


    After that, Ye Kehuan checked her Weibo again.


    She didn¡¯t pay attention in recent days, but it turned out that her Weibo fans had risen so much, even to the point that she almost surpassed Zhou Junyi and was starting to be comparable to Cheng Yan, only a few million behind. The gap was getting smaller and smaller, but Cheng Yan also hated her more and more. She wanted to see what Cheng Yan planned to do.


    After a while, when Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were lying on the bed, it was already past one o¡¯clock in the morning. In order to ensure that they did not oversleep, both people set up an alarm clock.


    ¡°Then, let¡¯s sleep now?¡± Ye Kehuan put her phone on the side and charged it, then turned to look at Jiang Laien who had just climbed onto the bed.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien pulled her hair back from her soldiers, then tidied her pajamas, and then lay down on the bed.


    However, as soon as she lay on the bed, Ye Kehuan approached her from the side again, her eyes fixed firmly on her face, as if looking at a precious baby.


    ¡°Why¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s complexion flushed.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± Ye Kehuan chuckled, then pressed a kiss on her lips, ¡°Good night.¡±


    Although it was a gentle kiss, it was still enough to make people think about.


    Jiang Laien was stunned for a second, only to feel that the storm in her body had not subsided, and she was still roaming the waves, but in the end she nodded: ¡°Good night.¡±


    Ye Kehuan stroked her forehead, smiled again, and then went to kiss her again gently. Finally, Ye Kehuan pulled her into her arms before closing her eyes.


    However, even after a long while, Jiang Laien found that she still couldn¡¯t sleep.


    Staying so close to her was like being in a fire. That kind of longing in her heart could never be extinguished. Now she suddenly regretted that she had asked Ye Kehuan whether she was sleepy or not, and she also regretted that she said she was tired. She now felt quite conflicted. However, she didn¡¯t want to change her mind and ask for something.


    Looking at Ye Kehuan¡¯s closed eyes, Jiang Laien closed her eyes after swallowing hard.


    Ye Kehuan felt that she had hardly slept when the alarm rang.


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, only to feel that her eyes were very dry, but she got up for work anyway. When she got up, Ye Kehuan realized that Jiang Laien had already changed her clothes, and she was sitting in front of the dressing table with some small jars and bottles, smearing her face.


    ¡°Are you such an early riser?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her back, frowned, and raised her hand to rub her temples. The time she slept was too short, and she was a little dizzy.


    ¡°Um¡­ Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head and looked at her. It wasn¡¯t that she got up early, she just never fell asleep at all. She now felt that she couldn¡¯t sleep with Ye Kehuan during the filming. It was really terrifying; she had uncontrollable and inextinguishable evil thoughts tumbling around her head.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll go wash first.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled happily and then walked towards the bathroom.


    After Jiang Laien took out a small dollop of face-care cream and spread it evenly in the palm of her hand, she looked at her back. First, her face was full of fake disgust, and then the corners of her lips became higher and higher, and her smile became sweeter.


    After Ye Kehuan finished washing, she tied her hair into a loose ponytail in front of the mirror, then raised her hand to cover her heck, and walked out from inside shaking her head: ¡°Are you ready?¡±


    ¡°Well, how about you, do you want to use some of my skincare products?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, walked over, and stood beside her.


    ¡°Here.¡± Jiang Laien handed her the lotion.


    ¡°Your eyes are bloodshot.¡± Ye Kehuan took the bottle from her hand and said while pouring some into the palm of her hand.


    ¡°Shut up, it¡¯s because of you.¡± Jiang Laien said without thinking.


    ¡°Me?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows, ¡°What did I do?¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Laien looked at her, blinked, and pulled the zipper of her jacket upwards, ¡°I won¡¯t tell you, hurry up, let¡¯s go.¡±


    Ye Kehuan put down the bottle, looked at her and smiled for a while, then patted the lotion on her face, and then used some skincare products before going to the set with Jiang Laien.


    When Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien finished their styling and arrived in the dressing room, Cheng Yan came in. Compared with the day before, Cheng Yan¡¯s complexion had obviously changed a lot. She obviously looked very happy and energetic the day before, but today she looked like she was destroyed by some violent wind.


    Of course she was not happy. The day before she had managed to buy a lot of marketing accounts together to black up Ye Kehuan. As a result, she didn¡¯t expect that after Jiang Laien¡¯s Weibo was posted, most of those wind-blown grasses fell to Ye Kehuan temporarily. In that way, everything she did the day before was useless. It even seemed to give Ye Kehuan a wave of free publicity. Seeing that Ye Kehuan¡¯s heat just rose like that, but on her side, she was still the same ghost as before, the more she thought about it, the more angry Cheng Yan became. She really didn¡¯t know what she did wrong, so that everything messed up so badly!


    Ye Kehuan glanced sideways at Cheng Yan, and saw that Cheng Yan¡¯s violent temper was coming up again. Although she didn¡¯t speak, she was secretly radiating malice at the assistants beside her, making them bow their heads, afraid to speak.


    It was quite a coincidence that the scenes to be filmed that day were mainly of Su He being entangled by various rumors that she was the real murderer, so her original lack of resources had been drastically reduced. Many brands pulled her endorsements, and her scripts were withdrawn, saying that she would have a negative impact, and her company even suspected all of Su He¡¯s current work for that reason.


    And it was Mo Jiaojiao, played by Cheng Yan, who spread those rumors outside.


    After Ye Kehuan filmed another scene with Jiang Laien, she was ready to start shooting a rival scene with Cheng Yan. Her and Cheng Yan¡¯s rivalries mainly focused on black and white, without much middle area. However, every time Ye Kehuan filmed with her, no matter how short the scene was, she never felt good. Because Cheng Yan always made mistakes.


    This scene was shot in the dressing room.


    After the staff arranged the scene inside and placed all the cameras in place, they were all ready to shoot.


    Ye Kehuan was wearing a long silver sequined tube top dress. Her hair was curled into big waves and spread over her shoulders. Because of her tall figure, she had quite the aura, and everyone couldn¡¯t help but privately praise Ye Kehuan¡¯s appearance, saying that she would be so beautiful as long as she dressed up a little, and it made people unable to look away.


    As for Cheng Yan, her appearance was not as brilliant as Jiang Laien¡¯s--with no dead angles at three-hundred and sixty degrees--and her body was flat, so she didn¡¯t get as many compliments. As a result, she became even more angry. What she hated most was being treated like and not being noticed.


    ¡°Action!¡± At that moment, Chen Fei gave an order and officially started shooting. Jiang Laien sat next to Chen Fei and looked at the monitor.


    Ye Kehuan sat in front of the makeup mirror, picked a lipstick, and gently smeared it on her lips. After applying it, she smudged the edge of her lips with her fingertips. At that time, Cheng Yan opened the door and stood in the doorframe.


    After Ye Kehuan looked over, she put down her lipstick: ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you, Great Host?¡±


    Cheng Yan looked at her, smiled coldly, and walked in with her arms folded and hugging her chest: ¡°I just wanted to tell you that you don¡¯t need to be busy. The station decided to remove your part and you can go.¡±


    ¡°What? What?¡± Ye Kehuan stood up instantly, walked towards her, glanced at her, and then was about to go outside, ¡°I have to ask in person.¡±


    ¡°Ask in person? Why are you suspicious? Don¡¯t you already know why? Our show is high-class, why would we use you, an artist covered in stains?¡±


    In an instant, Ye Kehuan froze, turned around and looked at her, her eyebrows raised: ¡°Stained all over?¡±


    Cheng Yan lowered her arms and stepped forward on her red high heels, pacing to stand in front of her: ¡°Yes, aren¡¯t you? Don¡¯t you know what kind of news you have? How stinky is your reputation? You don¡¯t know yourself? With what you¡¯ve done, you still don¡¯t know?¡¯


    Ye Kehuan looked at her with sharp eyes like a knife. There was a hint of anger in her expression, but she didn¡¯t appear pompous: ¡°Of course I know. I didn¡¯t do anything. Not only am I very clear on that, you are also quite clear.¡±


    While speaking, Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled up and she approached her. Her steps were not rushed, but her whole bearing was quite oppressive, making Cheng Yan take two steps back unconsciously. Are Ye Kehuan¡¯s acting skills this good, or is she showing her true feelings? She didn¡¯t know, she just felt that every hair on her back was standing up. It was really frightening.


    Jiang Laien looked at the monitor, raised her head and took a sip of water, and continued to observe every subtle expression on Cheng Yan¡¯s face.


    ¡°What kind of person are you? You are jealous of people all the time, trying to trip them up. Your brain must be in polluted water, buying people for scandal hot searches or joint marketing accounts for all kinds of rumors. What do you think you are to have any qualifications to say that to me, eh?¡± Ye Kehuan continued to approach her, curling her lower lip, not smiling.


    Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze and pressure, Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help taking a step back, and there was a hint of panic in her eyes. That line¡­ that line had been changed by Ye Kehuan. There was an added sentence about buying hot searches and spreading rumors. Although Mo Jiaojiao did this in the script, what did she mean? Did she change the script temporarily or did she notice something so she deliberately called her out?


    Although the lines had changed a bit, Chen Fei did not call to stop. Instead, he touched his chin and looked at the monitor thoughtfully. Cheng Yan¡¯s acting skills were quite realistic all of a sudden.


    After Cheng Yan retreated to the wall, she looked at her with a blushing face: ¡°What nonsense are you talking? When did I do that kind of thing?! Do you have evidence? If you don¡¯t have evidence, this is slander!¡±


    Ye Kehuan paused, her expression serious, her eyes sharp: ¡°So you know the word slander?¡±


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan put her arms on the walls beside her, and her eyes were cold: ¡°Then when you spread rumors about me, did you show any evidence? Didn¡¯t you also spread rumors about me just for your own please? Yes? Mo Jiaojiao, enough is enough, lest retribution come to find you.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan turned and left the dressing room.


    Cheng Yan stood there, her body trembling slightly. In the lines, Ye Kehuan added some more. The words after the sentence ¡°When you spread rumors about me, did you show any evidence?¡± Ye Kehuan had added herself. What did she mean?! Could it be that she really found something, and was giving her a backhanded warning?


    In an instant, Cheng Yan became pale.


    After Chen Fei had taken shots of Ye Kehuan¡¯s back and some close-ups, he also hurriedly asked someone to get a close-up of Cheng Yan¡¯s facial expression. Jiang Laien raised her eyes to look at Cheng Yan, ang gently bit her lower lip.


    After ¡°CUT--¡± Chen Fei smiled with satisfaction, ¡°Cheng Yan, you performed really well today.¡±


    ¡°Many thanks for the compliment.¡± After hearing Chen Fei¡¯s voice, Cheng Yan, with sweaty hands, was still a little bit overwhelmed.


    She never expected that the first time she received Chen Fei¡¯s praise would turn out to be in such a situation. When her breathing calmed down, the door of the dressing room was opened, and Ye Kehuan walked in from outside.


    ¡°Wonderful, wonderful! This section is so tense, it can really get people invested!¡± Chen Fei raised his hands and clapped after seeing her. Jiang Laien also smiled along with him.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan said modestly: ¡°Sorry, I was too excited and changed the script without cooperation. In fact, it is mainly Miss Cheng Yan who cooperated well.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan looked at Cheng Yan again, her smile back to being harmless to humans and animals, and so cute she looked like she was bubbling.


    Cheng Yan opened her mouth, clasping her hands in front of her, feeling a little at a loss: ¡°Where and where?¡±


    She really didn¡¯t understand Ye Kehuan anymore. Ye Kehuan was warning her just now, right? What else did she know? Did she catch on to anything else? The more she thought about it, the more nervous Cheng Yan became.


    Ye Kehuan laughed again, said nothing, then changed her outfit and continued shooting.


    After the shooting for the day finished, it was almost six o¡¯clock in the afternoon.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had a simple dinner together, they went to the hospital again to visit Chen Lulu.


    After pushing open the door of the ward, Chen Lulu still looked a little weak and her face was pale and tight. After Chen Lulu saw Ye Kehuan, she sat up slowly. In a short time, Chen Lulu looked like she had changed herself, completely losing the vitality she had before. Fortunately, she was beautiful, so even while haggard, she was still a sickly beauty.


    After Ye Kehuan walked to her bed and sat down, she asked, ¡°Do you feel better today?¡±


    Jiang Laien followed closely and sat down beside Ye Kehuan.


    Chen Lulu nodded and smiled lightly: ¡°I¡¯m much better. Thanks to you, otherwise, I might have been drinking tea with Lord Yama in the underground palace right now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was silent for a moment after listening, ¡°Do you know how worrying that was?¡±


    ¡°I know. I have been scolded by Ji Changge, so you two don¡¯t try to scold me.¡± Chen Lulu twisted the quilt.


    ¡°You mean the owner of the barbecue shop?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Chen Lulu nodded.


    ¡°She¡¯s coming back even now?¡± Ye Kehuan looked around.


    ¡°Well, she¡¯s going back to cook some porridge. She¡¯ll come here when it¡¯s cooked.¡± Chen Lulu said, pursing her lips and tilting her head and smiling. ¡°She thinks that other restaurants are not clean.¡±


    That smile was as clean and pure as a teenage girl¡¯s. Ye Kehuan had never seen her like that before. Most likely, she would only be like that when facing Ji Changge.


    ¡°Going back to cook for you? Are you guys¡­¡± Ye Kehuan squinted slightly. Could it be that they, after this battle, got together?


    Jiang Laien was also a little curious. After all, to be honest, she actually hoped that they could achieve it.


    When Chen Lulu heard that, there was a flash of loneliness in her eyes, and then she shook her head slightly: ¡°No.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded and stopped that train of thought.


    ¡°Do you think I¡¯m stupid? I said I would let it go, but I never let it go at all. I even ate and drank, making myself like this. It¡¯s so embarrassing to say it.¡± Chen Lulu sniffled and raised her face again. At that time, her eyes were red.


    Seeing that, Jiang Laien shook her head: ¡°Don¡¯t think like that. If you say that you can let go, then it is not necessarily love, even if you think it is.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know¡­¡± Chen Lulu grabbed her hand, ¡°I might be too headstrong.¡±


    ¡°Okay, don¡¯t think about it so much. If you can¡¯t let it go, you can¡¯t let it go. Many things are like that; the more you force yourself to forget, the more you etch it into your memory, and the more you¡¯ll think about it.¡± Ye Kehuan sighed. In a light tone, ¡°Anyway, you just have to remember that I will stand beside you whenever you want.¡±


    Chen Lulu pursed her lips, nodded, and laughed again.


    At that moment, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Ji Changge walked in wearing a mask with a lunch box. It was also black, and at first glance, she looked ready for a mafia party.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien stood up when they saw her.


    ¡°We¡¯ll go first. I didn¡¯t sleep much last night. I have to go to bed earlier today.¡± Ye Kehuan lowered her head and tapped the screen of her phone to light it up, then looked at Ji Changge and Chen Lulu.


    Chen Lulu was taken aback, then nodded: ¡°Okay. You have to pay attention to your health.¡±


    ¡°Well, we will see you again when we have time.¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    ¡°Okay, goodbye.¡± Chen Lulu nodded again.


    After nodding at Ji Changge, Ye Kehuan put her arm on Jiang Laien¡¯s shoulder and walked out of the ward with her.


    After watching them go, Ji Changge pulled down her mask, pulled up the dining support beside the bed, then put the lunch box on top and opened it and took out a bowl of warm porridge and a spoon: ¡°Eat.¡±


    Chen Lulu looked at the movement of her hand and nodded. Then, she took the spoon, scooped a spoonful of porridge, and brought it to her lips. As a result, her eyebrows furrowed in an instant.


    ¡°What are you so anxious about? No one will take it from you. The porridge is very hot, blow on it a little.¡± Ji Changge frowned when she saw that.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Chen Lulu nodded her head like a little chicken pecking rice, blew on the spoon several times like a child, and said to herself, ¡°It should be okay¡­¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu swallowed the porridge, then raised her eyes to look at Ji Changge, and said with a smile: ¡°It¡¯s delicious.¡±


    After Ji Changge listened, she lowered her head and took out her mobile phone, called up a music app, and plugged in her earphones: ¡°Then you have to drink it slowly, or you won¡¯t be able to stand it.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Chen Lulu nodded, then, her eyes fixed on her earphones, ¡°What are you listening to?¡±


    ¡°Recently I wrote a song.¡± Ji Changge said.


    ¡°Oh,¡± Chen Lulu stirred the porridge, ¡°Can you let me listen to it?¡±


    Ji Changge raised her head and looked at her, her narrow eyes seemingly void of emotions.


    ¡°Then don¡¯t.¡± Chen Lulu was startled and hurriedly lowered her head to scoop some porridge.


    However, in the next second, she held an earphone in one hand and stuffed it into her right ear, and a melodious but slightly melancholic pure tune came into her eardrum. The stone seemed very cheerful, but when the notes hit her, there was a strange and slightly distressing feeling. However, it sounded really good, and it felt like the unique and compelling type. Chen Lulu froze and forgot to blow on the porridge.


    After several seconds, Chen Lulu slowly raised her head to look at Ji Changge. Two earphones, Ji Changge plugged in on one side, she plugged in on the other, inexplicably made Chen Lulu feel that there was some kind of connection between them.


    ¡°This song feels so sad.¡± Chen Lulu spoke after a while.


    ¡°Really.¡¯ Ji Changge turned over her phone with her eyes down.


    ¡°Well,¡± Chen Lulu coughed lightly, then asked tentatively, ¡°What is it called?¡±


    ¡°Lovel.¡± Ji Changge replied.


    Chen Lulu was stunned and asked, ¡°What is your name? I don¡¯t mean your real name, I know your real name. I meant your music name¡­¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge raised her eyes and looked at her thoughtfully.


    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t want to tell me.¡± Chen Lulu took another sip of porridge. She already remembered the melody and the name of the song anyway, and she would know it by searching.


    ¡°Yiyu.¡± But the next second, Ji Changge spoke again.


    Chen Lulu nodded and laughed again: ¡°It sounds good! I thought you wouldn¡¯t tell me. You would never reveal anything to me before.¡±


    While talking, Chen Lulu¡¯s thinking diverged again: ¡°Is it because I am weak now, and you are afraid of irritating me, so this is the reason? Isn¡¯t it that when I am discharged from the hospital, everything will go back to how it was before?¡±


    After speaking, Chen Lulu suddenly laughed again: ¡°Don¡¯t get me wrong, I am not threatening you. My hospitalization is purely accidental, not for your sympathy, I am not that bad¡­¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge, after a long while, let out a long sigh and looked at her sideways: ¡°You can enter my life.¡±


    In an instant, Chen Lulu¡¯s hand holding the spoon stiffened slightly.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien returned to the hotel at around 7 or 8 in the evening. Although it was dark outside, it was quite early for them.


    As soon as Jiang Laien opened the door, Ye Kehuan stood next to her.


    ¡°Is there anything else? Didn¡¯t you mean to go to bed early tonight?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°Yes, I want to go to bed earlier, but does that conflict with me wanting to sleep with you?¡¯ Ye Kehuan closed to her ear.


    Jiang Laien listened, gritted her teeth, and let go: ¡°What are you talking about?!¡±


    ¡°I said sleeping together, but you, what did you think of?¡± Ye Kehuan laughed so hard that she didn¡¯t know what to do.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t.¡± Jiang Laien glanced at her, then walked into the room.


    ¡°I¡¯ll come over once I go to my room to take a shower.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she turned and left from the door.


    Jiang Laien stood in the middle of the room, raised her hand and gently stroked her hot cheek, turned her head and looked at her, and touched her lips again.


    She had to say that she was really always like that, unwilling to leave her alone. How did things turn out to be like this? Why didn¡¯t she know that she was so bad before? She had always thought that she was pure-hearted and unwilling to be alone.


    After Ye Kehuan changed her clothes, closed the door, and stood in front of Jiang Laien¡¯s room again, she knocked on the door.


    ¡°Come in.¡± After taking a shower, Jiang Laien, wearing a suspender dress, appeared in front of the door.


    Her collarbone was small and exquisite, with two shallow depressions showing while she leaned back. The dress just barely reached her thigh, making her legs straight and slender. The color of the dress matched her very well, making Jiang Laien¡¯s skin white and delicate and especially moving. After Ye Kehuan¡¯s gaze fixed on her, she found it difficult to turn away.


    ¡°Looking at me like you fell asleep.¡± Jiang Laien stood there and looked at her for a long time, then finally released the door frame and walked to the bedside and sat down in a curvaceous manner.


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily, walked in, stretched out her right hand to close the door, and followed her to the bed. After lying down, Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien who was still sitting there playing with her mobile phone. She thought about it and asked, ¡°Why are you still playing, didn¡¯t you say you wanted to sleep?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien coughed and put the phone aside: ¡°You go and sleep.¡±


    But after Jiang Laien sat on the bed, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes seemed to be stuck to her. Jiang Laien, who only wore a thin nightdress, released all her fatal attraction upon her. That posture was so tempting that it made people really want to hold it firmly in their arms. Looking at her, Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips felt a little dry.


    ¡°Turn off the lights?¡± Jiang Laien brushed her black silk hair behind her ear, and looked at her with eyes that seemed to be caged with smoke.


    ¡°Come here first.¡± Ye Kehuan stretched out her arm and motioned for her to lie down.


    Jiang Laien looked at her arm and pursed her lips: ¡°Why¡­¡±


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you my girlfriend? Are you afraid of sleeping on my arm?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    Jiang Laien pressed her vermillion lips slightly, and eventually lay down to sleep on her arm: ¡°Are you satisfied?¡±


    ¡°Of course not.¡± Ye Kehuan turned sideways and looked at her quietly.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes were full of water, and her lips looked full and shiny.


    Delicious. Ye Kehuan only had that word in her mind.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan tilted her head and gently touched her lips: ¡°I can¡¯t bear it anymore. I want to kiss.¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice seemed to have a hormonal magnet. After rushing into Jiang Laien¡¯s ears, it immediately stirred up every cell in her body. The calm mood of the night became turbulent in an instant.


    ¡°You, are you sure you just want to kiss?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s breathing became rapid again, and her face was flushed red.


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Ye Kehuan pressed down on a certain emotion, and her voice became muted, ¡°Just a kiss.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan wrapped around her again and kissed her lips. The temperature in the quilt rose higher and higher, and Jiang Laien felt that the quilt covering her body was hot under her kiss. They traced outlines of the other¡¯s lip line and drew in the other¡¯s emotions, and for a while, both of them were somewhat on top.


    ¡°Are you sure you really just want to kiss¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was mixed with a trace of desire.


    ¡°I¡¯m not sure now.¡± Ye Kehuan panted lightly and swallowed her saliva, the expression in her eyes darkening.

 CH 50

    Ye Kehuan¡¯s voice was a bit dumb at the moment, and at the same time, it was laced with temptation. It was like a key, and a certain switch in Jiang Laien was turned on in an instant, only to feel that after a while, all the blood in her body started to boil.


    As the temperature in the bed rose, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t know what was going on. Surrounded by Ye Kehuan, she only felt that her mouth was too dry, and she couldn¡¯t control the throbbing in her heart. At the time, all her reservations were thrown out into the sky by her.


    ¡°Why are you not sure now?¡¯ Jiang Laien stroked her hair lightly, her chest heaving, her eyebrows raised, and her eyes filled with intricate charm.


    ¡°Yeah, who told you to dress like this? Are you deliberately seducing me?¡± Ye Kehuan turned over and fixed her eyes on her little sling.


    The woman in front of her was as soft as a snake, her milk white skin had a fine luster, and the lines of her shoulders and neck were elegant and smooth, which looked especially gentle and graceful against her avocado-colored suspender dress. Even if Jiang Laien didn¡¯t do anything, Ye Kehuan felt that the woman in front of her could seduce her regardless.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s teeth bit her lower lip slightly, and a little red glow was scattered across her pink skin: ¡°It¡¯s obvious that your mind is full of shameful things, and that¡¯s why you feel that way.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows slightly: ¡°Really? I just think you really look like a fairy.¡±


    A fairy who possesses an evil enchantment art which can hold people¡¯s hearts firmly and make them become ministers of her skirt without any effort.


    ¡°Then, do you like fairies?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice softened, and as her eyes turned, there was a misty and sultry feeling of confusion.


    ¡°Look, you also said that you didn¡¯t mean it.¡± Ye Kehuan only felt that her sanity had been completely broken, and she just wanted to take the fairy in front of her.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s lips twitched: ¡°What about you, do you dare say that you don¡¯t have an evil intentions towards me?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan smiled and lowered her head, close to the corner of her lips, and said with difficulty: ¡°Don¡¯t dare.¡±


    Jiang Laien gulped, and her breathing fluctuated more violently than before: ¡°You seem to be uncomfortable.¡±


    In the next second, Ye Kehuan tightened her hands and held her tighter and tighter: ¡°Yes, because my evil thoughts about you are so big.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan tilted her head again and kissed her. The temperature in the room was too hot, and after a while, there was a fine layer of sweat on the foreheads of the two of them. Suddenly, the two people felt like they were in a furnace, and the surrounding flames were burning fiercely, screaming and swallowing all the rational thoughts between them.


    By the end of the kiss, Jiang Laien¡¯s sling had already slid slightly without her knowing, hanging loosely on her shoulders, as if it could fall at any time. Under such an ambiguous atmosphere, Jiang Laien watched Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes, and finally couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her arms to wrap around Ye Kehuan¡¯s neck: ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to be such a person. You hid it for a long time.¡±


    ¡°You didn¡¯t expect a lot, then, do you want to gain more knowledge?¡± Ye Kehuan gently held her.


    She had long wanted to do something to that woman, and even before they began dating, she had already simulated certain scenes thousands of times in her mind.


    ¡°What more knowledge¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s aura was disturbed.


    So in the next second, Ye Kehuan leaned down and kissed her on her shoulder like a splash: ¡°For example, some excitement¡­¡±


    Jiang Laien was not stupid, of course she understood what Ye Kehuan meant. After closing her eyes and letting out a breath from her chest, Jiang Laien ignored opening her eyes again, and then when the sling slid down her shoulders, she hugged Ye Kehuan again and proactively offered her a kiss. ¡°Okay, then, let me see what excites me¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard the words, and a certain kind of strange feeling began to overflow. The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and Ye Kehuan leaned close to Jiang Laien¡¯s neck, only to feel that a piece of fragrance poured into her nose. Jiang Laien turned her head slightly, only feeling that under her lingering breath, she became gradually uncomfortable, always feeling that there was a gap in the depths of her soul, and she needed it to be filled urgently.


    And Ye Kehuan could no longer control her brain, she just wanted to enter the world of the woman before her, completely defeat all of her defenses, and occupy them all.


    The night was thick outside, and there was only a small night light inside the room that conveyed a slightly dim light, but it couldn¡¯t conceal the ambiguous fragrance within. Sweat soaked their hair, breath confused their minds, their clothes fell to the ground, the sheets wrinkled, the quilt fell to their feet, the pillows flew everywhere, and everything seemed messy and intense.


    The next day.


    When Ye Kehuan woke up, the alarm clock hadn¡¯t gone off, and the sky hadn¡¯t lit up. Only the light of the night light was shining shallowly in the room. She picked up her mobile phone and saw that it was four o¡¯clock in the morning, which was still relatively early, but it was not far from the time to wake up.


    Putting down the phone, Ye Kehuan turned her head and saw Jiang Laien asleep with her hand on her side facing her, half covered with quilt, showing thin arms like white jade; her sleep looked very peaceful and sweet, like a person in a painting. The corners of Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled slightly, and she couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her hand to flick her slightly messy hair, and then stretched out her hand to stroke her arm inch by inch.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s appearance seemed to be really good, so good that people felt that what she did to her the previous night was a crime. However, when she thought of that night, Ye Kehuan felt that her mind became a little dumb, and her eyes became a little weird. The smell on her body was so good, and her emotional appearance was so charming.


    When Ye Kehuan recalled those images, Jiang Laien moved her eyebrows slightly and slowly opened her eyes. After seeing Ye Kehuan in front of her, Jiang Laien sighed lightly, then said softly: ¡°Hug.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily, and then hugged her into her arms. Holding her fragrant and soft body like that, Ye Kehuan felt like she was holding a bunch of delicate flowers.


    ¡°What time is it?¡¯ After a moment, Jiang Laien asked softly, in a daze.


    ¡°Around half-past four.¡± Ye Kehuan continued to stroke her hair, with a hint of tenderness in her voice, and smiled, ¡°However, if you want to sleep for another ten minutes or something, it¡¯s still okay. At the moment, there is still plenty of time.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not too early, I¡¯d better get up.¡± Jiang Laien replied, opened her eyes again, and suddenly found that she had no strands of fabric on her body, so she asked, ¡°Where are my clothes?¡±


    ¡°What do you want clothes for, huh?¡± Ye Kehuan reached out and fiddled with her hair.


    ¡°Cut it.¡± Jiang Laien pulled the quilt to her chest, then got up and looked for clothes. As a result, as soon as she did, she felt faint aches in the joints of her whole body, as if she was going to the army to fight.


    However, as soon as her arm reached the edge of the bed, Ye Kehuan went over and hugged her gently. After her satin-like back fell into her arms, she put her chin on her small shoulder again: ¡°Where else on you haven¡¯t I seen, eh?¡±


    ¡°Really shameless¡­¡± Jiang Laien turned her head slightly, her pink lips slightly opened.


    ¡°Really, you must have forgotten what you did last night. Who is it that is not ashamed?¡± Ye Kehuan tightened her arms, pulling Jiang Laien¡¯s smooth back closer to her. Now, there was a hint of laziness to her voice. The previous night, Jiang Laien was really enthusiastic, and she took the initiative to send herself to her door, which was very satisfying.


    ¡°I won¡¯t tell you. I¡¯m getting up.¡± Her cheeks were flaming, and a strange temperature spread along the surface of her skin, and soon it had swept along her whole body. Jiang Laien raised her hand and pushed her forehead softly, then lifted the dress on the ground and put it on, and then walked towards the bathroom.


    After watching her walk in, Ye Kehuan sat on the bed and smiled. She picked up her phone and flipped through the news, then looked at Weibo.


    She saw that the Weibo sent by Jiang Laien had been fermented for a day and two nights. At that moment, many people who ate melon seeds had already stood by their side.


    Some people said that even if they had conflicts, who could never have conflicts with others in their lives? If there was no conflict at all in the process of getting along, then could it still be called friendship?


    However, there were still some people who firmly believed that the two of them were jointly speculating. After all, if the two people starred in the same variety show together, then went on to make a movie together, no matter how they looked at it, it was a cooperative relationship. Maybe making movies together was deliberately arranged by the top.


    That side also contained some fans of Jiang Laien. They couldn¡¯t get used to Ye Kehuan very much. They only thought that their idol and Ye Kehuan getting along was a kind of self-deprecation, which was very shameful, so they would rather choose to believe themselves. Their idol was just making hype with Ye Kehuan, and they didn¡¯t want to believe that Jiang Laien was really playing with Ye Kehuan.


    There were different opinions and all kinds of speculations. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t look at it any more and turned it off.


    Then, Ye Kehuan looked at her schedule again, frowning. Time flew so fast, and the day after next, she would go to the next city to shoot the movie ¡°The Most Beautiful You I Can¡¯t Reach¡±. In that film, Ye Kehuan and an actor named Qin Keyin would have a lot of pair scenes. After all, they were meant to play a couple in it.


    Qin Keyin looked like a relatively pure type, several years younger than Ye Kehuan in age, but also debuted earlier than her. She had been in the entertainment industry for two or three years, but she had always been tepid. The TV series and movies she starred in were not very famous.


    Judging from her Weibo, she felt that she was a person who had never been in business. In addition to sending flowers and flowers, she also posted flowers and more flowers. If it weren¡¯t for her certification as an actress, and her occasional reposting of work-related things, Ye Kehuan would have thought she was a plant blogger.


    In general, Ye Kehuan was not familiar with her, and she had never dealt with her, so she hoped she would be an easy person to get along with.


    Without thinking about it, Ye Kehuan also picked up her bathrobe and put it on, and got out of bed.


    At that time, Jiang Laien, who had finished washing, had already walked out of the bathroom. She probably didn¡¯t pay attention when she was washing her face. Her hair was dampened several times, and it fit on her soft and white cheeks, looking unique and sexy.


    After looking at her from a distance for a while, Ye Kehuan tightened the belt of her bathrobe, took a step forward, walked towards her, and finally stopped in front of her.


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± When the figure came over, Jiang Laien, who had planned to change her clothes, raised her eyes and looked at her, her face still flushed.


    ¡°Looking at you.¡± Ye Kehuan grinned and smiled softly, but it still made Jiang Laien melt.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you had seen everywhere, haven¡¯t you seen enough?¡¯ Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes rolled around her body, and after speaking, her heart suddenly throbbed, feeling like she shouldn¡¯t have said such words at that time.


    ¡°Of course I didn¡¯t see enough.¡± Ye Kehuan bowed her head slightly and her eyes fell on her lips.


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Laien shrank her neck and raised her hand to lift her hair. ¡°What are you going to do?¡±


    Ye Kehuan held her shoulders and pushed her against the wall, her eyes getting deeper and deeper: ¡°Do you not know?¡±


    Inexplicably, in an instant, Jiang Laien felt that her body became hot again, and she did not dare to look at her, but licked her lower lip: ¡°It¡¯s time to start work.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan rubbed the tip of her nose: ¡°I¡¯ll be faster.¡±


    The author has something to say: Jiang: I, of course I know¡­

 CH 51

    The temperature in Chongyuan City that year was particularly low, and the snow fell very frequently. That day, it started from 8 or 9 o¡¯clock in the morning until the evening. In the heavy snow, the streets were covered in silver, and the mood was bleak, and the pedestrians were wrapped up tightly, as if they had lost their vitality, except for children--running around like animals that seemed to be injected with chicken blood all year.


    After a day of filming in the snow, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien and the crew said goodbye, and they went to a fish hot pot restaurant that day. Coincidentally, the hot pot restaurant was located diagonally across from the Four Seasons BBQ restaurant, which was also very close.


    The snow had stopped by then, but the temperature had not risen yet, but it had become colder than before. However, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t feel cold that day, because she was urged by Ye Kehuan to wear a massive jacket and all kinds of warming equipment, making her look like a matryoshka. She estimated that even if she stood in front of her mother, her mother would not recognize her. She just wanted to bury her head in the sand and never come out again.


    Although it was inconvenient to move, Jiang Laien was still very happy under that package of love from her girlfriend.


    When Ye Kehuan walked to the fish hot pot, she glanced at the barbecue restaurant whose door was closed. She didn¡¯t know how those two people were, which was worrying.


    Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan turned her head, sent a message to Chen Lulu, and asked her about her situation, and then went into the fish hot pot with Jiang Laien, and then walked into the box with the instructions of the waiter who seated them.


    The design in the box looked pretty beautiful. Various wall decorations were assembled from pictures of various fishes. They looked lively, interesting, and gorgeous. Even the drinking cups were printed with stamps of little fish, stylish and suitable for the scene.


    Jiang Laien loved to eat fish, especially the ones with no bones, because she was lazy and hated to pick the bones out. In addition, she also loved very tender meat. Therefore, after searching the Internet for a long time, Ye Kehuan finally locked onto this place.


    After ordering a mandarin duck pot and a few other items, the two waited for the waiter to serve the food.


    Ye Kehuan picked up her cup and took a sip of tea, then slowly put it down, her eyes concentrated on Jiang Laien who was playing on her phone: ¡°I¡¯m leaving tomorrow. I will stay there for a week.¡±


    Jiang Laien rubbed the lip of her cup with her fingers: ¡°I know this, you said it before.¡±


    ¡°So¡­ That¡¯s it?¡± Ye Kehuan froze while touching her cup. She originally thought Jiang Laien would have another reaction.


    ¡°What¡¯s it?¡± Jiang Laien continued to drink water.


    ¡°In the TV series, the young couple would get separated for a period of time because of something. Isn¡¯t the other party always particularly reluctant?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes widened.


    ¡°You just said, it¡¯s a TV series. Who would watch a TV series if it was not hypocritical?¡± Jiang Laien brushed her hair behind her ears.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Ye Kehuan nodded sullenly, saying that she was unhappy.


    In fact, what she wanted to say was that her birthday was also in a few days. Wasn¡¯t Jiang Laien planning to take the time to visit her set or something? Anyway, without Ye Kehuan in Chen Fei¡¯s crew, Jiang Laien would be relatively free. After all, Jiang Laien¡¯s most of Jiang Laien¡¯s role was to be played with Ye Kehuan.


    But after thinking about it, Ye Kehuan felt that she wouldn¡¯t talk about it, and felt that some things were not suitable for her to reach out and ask for. If she stretched out her hand, she always felt like she was not good enough.


    After noticing Ye Kehuan¡¯s depression, Jiang Laien looked at her and tilted her head: ¡°Unhappy?¡±


    ¡°No, am I such a na?ve person?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand to rub her neck, and began to look at the door, ¡°I¡¯m just a little hungry, why didn¡¯t they serve food yet.¡±


    As soon as Ye Kehuan finished speaking, two waiters opened the door and came in, one carrying a pot with soup base, and one pushing in a lot of dishes. After putting the dishes on the table respectfully and politely, the two waiters walked out.


    Ye Kehuan took off her jacket, rolled up her sleeves, tilted her head and looked at the beating flame under the soup pot, adjusted the fire a bit, and muttered to herself: ¡°I¡¯m starving to death.¡±


    Jiang Laien glanced at Ye Kehuan, who looked like a child with ADHD. After a while, she finally couldn¡¯t help but smile: ¡°I really don¡¯t want you to leave.¡±


    After hearing those words, the child with ADHD stopped her series of actions with their hands and raised their eyes to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°Really?¡±


    ¡°Yes,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, ¡°and you will be gone for a week the first time you go.¡±


    She also wanted to stay with Ye Kehuan more. At first, they had very little time. They were filming during the day, and only had time to spend some private time together at night. Now they had to be separated. Who wouldn¡¯t be glum?


    Ye Kehuan laughed when she heard that and cleared her throat: ¡°It¡¯s okay, and it¡¯s only a week. We have many days to spend together in the future, don¡¯t we?¡±


    ¡°Furthermore,¡± Ye Kehuan continued to dance with joy, ¡°now that the Internet is so developed, can¡¯t we still video chat? Don¡¯t be too sad.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan, who had changed her face in an instant, and finally couldn¡¯t help it, laughing delightedly: ¡°Yes, you are right.¡±


    At that time, the soup base in the pot boiled, and bubbles burst into the air. So Ye Kehuan lowered the fire slightly, and then started to put food in it: ¡°When I¡¯m not here, you have to do this. Take good care of yourself, wear more clothes, and drink plenty of hot water when it is cold. Even if you don¡¯t care for yourself, there will always be someone who cares for you.¡±


    Jiang Laien listened, looked away from Ye Kehuan to an empty plate next to her, turned to look at Ye Kehuan again, and smiled slightly: ¡°I know, I will take good care of myself. Leave it, my heart has already healed.¡±


    ¡°What do you know? How often do you say you know, but still mess up?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyes to look at her and shook her head.


    ¡°Then what should I do, take a picture before each meal and send it to you, and then take a picture and send it to you every morning after getting up and dressing?¡± Jiang Laien quipped.


    After Ye Kehuan finished putting in the food, she raised her hand to touch her chin and nodded: ¡°I think that¡¯s okay, just do it like that.¡±


    ¡°Am I in a relationship or have I found a mother¡­¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help laughing again.


    Ye Kehuan folded her arms: ¡°You started to hate me so soon?¡±


    ¡°Where and where, I dare not dare!¡± Jiang Laien hurriedly raised her hand and chook it, for fear that Three-Year-Old Ye might have misunderstood something.


    Ye Kehuan laughed with satisfaction. At that time, her mobile phone rang with a message alert, so she picked up her mobile phone ,and saw that it was a message from Chen Lulu, and the content seemed to be full of vitality: ¡°I am going to leave the hospital! Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m alive and kicking again now!¡±


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief and replied, ¡°That¡¯s good.¡±


    In the next second, Chen Lulu replied again: ¡®There is another good news. She doesn¡¯t exclude me from approaching her. She said, we can be friends. Are you surprised or surprised?!¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at it and replied: ¡°Isn¡¯t it just being a friend? Look at how happy you are.¡±


    ¡°But this is already a great leap forward, don¡¯t you think?!¡± Chen Lulu continued to text, ¡°Moreover, we also exchanged WeChat and phone numbers. I even know her birthday, her stage name, there are things I didn¡¯t dare to expect before, okay?¡±


    Ye Kehuan could only imagine the expression on her face just then by looking at Chen Lulu¡¯s words. Seeing her so happy, Ye Kehuan was also happy, but she didn¡¯t know why, but there was still a faint worry in her heart. She had no prejudice against Ji Changge, but she felt that Chen Lulu was in too deep, and feared that she would be hurt by Ji Changge in the future.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but asking when she saw Ye Kehuan frowning and staring at the phone in her hand.


    ¡°It¡¯s Lulu and Boss Ji. I don¡¯t know, maybe I¡¯m overthinking. Forget it, I can¡¯t manage other people¡¯s emotional affairs.¡± Ye Kehuan spread her hands and put the phone on the side. She took a hot ball from the pot and put it into Jiang Laien¡¯s small bowl.


    At that time, in the hospital.


    Chen Lulu was still very excited after returning to Ye Kehuan the news. She was good at changing gears. When Ji Changge gave her a little sunshine, she would be bright, but she would flood with a little water. Chen Lulu suddenly felt that this incident wasn¡¯t too bad. If it weren¡¯t for it, she still wouldn¡¯t know that she still had some status in Ji Changge¡¯s heart.


    No matter how small that status was, Chen Lulu had been happy for a long time. If she continued to work hard, she thought she had some chance of making Ji Changge like her one day.


    In a short period of time, Chen Lulu rebuilt her confidence and turned back to a granddaughter, full of vitality and confidence.


    After finishing the discharge procedures with Ji Changge, Chen Lulu took her belongings and left the hospital with her.


    ¡°Are you going back to the hotel now?¡± When she walked out the door, Ji Changge looked back and forth on both sides of the street, then turned her head to look at Chen Lulu.


    After listening, Chen Lulu was startled for a moment, then immediately shook her head: ¡°I don¡¯t want to.¡±


    ¡°Then what are you going to do?¡± Ji Changge frowned.


    ¡°In order to celebrate that we are now good friends, I want to eat something delicious. I have eaten liquid food for a few days. If I don¡¯t eat any delicious food, I will die.¡± Chen Lulu finished speaking, revealing a very sweet smile.


    Ji Changge walked to her motorcycle: ¡°This kind of trivial thing should also be celebrated?¡±


    ¡°Of course it is worth celebrating. All the good things in life need to be celebrated. This can deepen the memory. When you are old, you can lie on your bed or sit in your rocking chair and think about it slowly. Helps, right?¡± Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but clapping her hands when she was excited.


    ¡°When I get old¡­¡± Ji Changge said to herself, staring at the ground.


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Chen Lulu eyes were bent into crescent moons.


    ¡°Who knows if I can live to be old.¡± Ji Changge picked up her helmet and fiddle with it in her hands incredibly casually.


    ¡°Of course, you are such a kind, caring, and talented person, you can definitely live a long life!¡± Chen Lulu stretched her hand into the air and nodded.


    Ji Changge loosened her jaw and looked at her: ¡°I hope so.¡±


    ¡°Then do you want to eat with me?¡± Chen Lulu trotted to her side, looking at her with big doe-eyes.


    ¡°What do you want to eat?¡± Ji Changge picked up a helmet, put it on her head, and carefully tied the strap on her chin.


    ¡°Let me think about it¡­¡± Chen Lulu pinched her chin, racked her brain and thought about it for a long time, then said, ¡°Steamed vegetables!¡±


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll take you to the steamed vegetables I¡¯ve been to. My friends said it was quite delicious. Put this on.¡± After Ji Changge finished speaking, she handed another helmet to Chen Lulu.


    ¡°Yessir!¡± After Chen Lulu took the helmet, she stood in a military pose for a second, holding the helmet in one hand, and putting the other hand on her head, like a fool.


    Ji Changge raised her eyes to look at her and couldn¡¯t help but smiling.


    ¡°You laughed?!¡± At that moment, Chen Lulu looked like she had discovered some new world, her eyes widening in disbelief.


    Ji Changge shook her head and looked to one side: ¡°I am not a robot, of course I will laugh. What¡¯s so surprising?¡±


    ¡°No, I just think that I haven¡¯t seen you smile before, just thinking, it¡¯s amazing. Oh my God, you look so good when you smile!¡± Chen Lulu instantly praised her overwhelmingly.


    ¡°Hurry up and put your helmet on.¡± Ji Changge leaned against her motorcycle, her expression becoming severe again.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Chen Lulu put the helmet on her head after listening.


    Ji Changge stood up straight, straddled her long legs on the super cool motorcycle, turned her head slightly, and said concisely: ¡°Come on.¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± Chen Lulu said, and then sat on the seat behind Ji Changge. She hadn¡¯t ridden one before, and was a little scared, so she asked indignantly, ¡°Your driving skills should be alright?¡±


    ¡°I think it¡¯s not bad. If you are afraid, hug me tightly.¡± Ji Changge stepped on the ground with one foot and the pedal with the other, quite handsome.


    Chen Lulu listened, and the corners of her lips rose with satisfaction, and then seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wrap around Ji Changge¡¯s waist. Tightening, and tightening again, she clasped her hands together and pressed her face completely to her back.


    ¡°So scared?¡± Ji Changge felt that she had shrunk into a ball.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Chen Lulu leaned on her back like a koala and nodded frantically, ¡°I am very greedy for life and fear death.¡±


    Hearing that, Ji Changge let out a sigh, looked down at her hands tightly clasped around her waist, couldn¡¯t help being amused, immediately entered gear, started up her motorcycle, and rushed forward with Chen Lulu.


    In winter, the cold wind was violent and blew like a knife. However, Chen Lulu didn¡¯t feel cold at all, she just felt that it was getting warm, and she couldn¡¯t help hugging Ji Changge tighter again.


    After a while, seeing that they were approaching their destination, their speed slowed down, so Chen Lulu asked again: ¡°By the way, why did you sigh just now and wonder if you could live to be old?¡±


    When asked about that, Ji Changge suddenly braked, so Chen Lulu slammed into Ji Changge¡¯s back with her inertia.

 CH 52

    Chen Lulu hugged Ji Changge in a hurry, her mind going blank.


    At that time, Ji Changge said: ¡°It¡¯s only a secondary illness, so don¡¯t worry about it.¡±


    ¡°Secondary?¡± Chen Lulu raised her head and looked at the nape of her neck.


    ¡°Well, we¡¯re at that steaming restaurant now, won¡¯t you get off the bus?¡± Ji Changge turned her head slightly.


    Chen Lulu looked at her thin and sharp jaw. After a few seconds in a daze, she immediately loosened her grip on her waist and jumped to the ground with a ¡°hey¡±. She saw that the street was full of all kinds of restaurants, and there were a lot of people. It was full of smoke and fires.


    ¡°It¡¯s this one.¡± Just as Chen Lulu was admiring the environment, Ji Changge¡¯s voice came over.


    ¡°Oh!¡± Chen Lulu retracted her curious gaze, followed behind Ji Changge, and walked towards a restaurant called ¡®Youke Steamed Vegetable Restaurant¡¯.


    The restaurant looked ugly, all its facilities were outrageously old, but the business was very busy, and there were no empty seats. If it weren¡¯t for the two of them happening to come as a table of diners finished their meal, they would have had to wait.


    After sitting down at a position by the window, a waiter came over and handed the drinks list and menu to her.


    After Chen Lulu ordered a cup of coconut milk, steamed pork ribs, sea cucumber steamed egg, and steamed tofu with shrimp, she pushed the menu and pen to Ji Changge: ¡°I have ordered what I want to eat. You can see what you want to eat!¡±


    After Ji Changge took the menu and pen and looked for a while, she ordered a yam and red date pork rib soup and handed the menu to a waiter passing by.


    Fortunately, the food was served very quickly in this restaurant. Chen Lulu felt that it didn¡¯t take long for the food to come out one after another. Her food filled the table, but Ji Changge just ordered soup.


    ¡°Do you like pork ribs and yam?¡± Chen Lulu asked with a smile, looking at Ji Changge who was eating her soup.


    After listening, Ji Changge put her spoon aside: ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s mainly about keeping in good health.¡±


    Chen Lulu said ¡°Oh¡±, picked up a piece of steamed pork ribs, took a bite, then hurriedly raised her head, pointing to the ribs with her chopsticks: ¡°This is delicious, try it!¡±


    Ji Changge let out a sigh, grabbed her chopsticks to grab a piece, took a bite, and chewed it slowly.


    ¡°How is it?¡± Chen Lulu asked.


    ¡°Hmm. Today, it isn¡¯t steamed soft enough, the meat and bones are tightly connected, and the taste has changed a bit. I don¡¯t know if they changed the chef.¡± Ji Changge commented on the food in the store like a professional gourmet, being harsh and critical. Chen Lulu hallucinated her holding up a sign saying ¡°I only give five points.¡±


    Chen Lulu was stunned. After Ji Changge finished eating the ribs, she continued to drink her soup slowly. After drinking a bowl, she dug several spoonfuls of egg custard and put it in her bowl.


    ¡°Oh, I think it¡¯s pretty good.¡± Chen Lulu smiled and continued to eat. However, to be honest, she didn¡¯t expect that although Ji Changge was in the barbecue industry, her own appetite was so light. The shop also had a lot of heavy-tasting dishes, but she didn¡¯t order them.


    After a while, Chen Lulu asked again: ¡°Changge, are you originally from Chongyuan? Or are you just doing barbecue here?¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge shook her head: ¡°No, my parents used to cook barbecue here when I was young, so I followed. Later, my father fell ill and died, and my mother remarried back to my hometown, so I stayed here alone.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s sad. Will you go back to your hometown to accompany your mother in the future?¡± Chen Lulu continued to ask.


    ¡°No. She is just a stepmother. My mother is long gone, and there is no relationship between me and her.¡± When Ji Changge said those words, her expression was light, as if she was saying some very ordinary things.


    ¡°Sorry.¡± Chen Lulu squeezed her chopsticks, not knowing what to say besides apologizing.


    Ji Changge shook her head, put down her chopsticks, and took out a tissue to wipe the corners of her lips.


    ¡°You don¡¯t want to eat anymore?¡¯ Chen Lulu looked at the dishes left on the table and looked at Ji Changge. Ji Changge seemed to have a bowl of soup, a piece of ribs, and half a bowl of egg custard.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ji Changge nodded, then lowered her head and took out a blue portable pill box from her coat pocket and poured one of the pills into her palm.


    ¡°You should eat more. If you don¡¯t eat well, you will become a skeleton.¡± Chen Lulu stared at her closely, furrowing her eyebrows. The last time she came to Chongyuan, Ji Changge didn¡¯t look so thin, and now she really looked like a piece of paper.


    ¡°You eat. I¡¯m full.¡± Ji Changge put the medicine in her mouth, picked up a bottle of mineral water on the table, unscrewed it, took a sip with her head up, and put the lid on the side.


    Chen Lulu still looked at her motionlessly, her eyes staring like a Persian cat.


    Connecting it with the emotions of Ji Changge before, Chen Lulu immediately panicked in her heart. Was it a serious illness? Was it serious enough to kill people? Thinking about that, Chen Lulu became even more nervous: ¡°What kind of medicine are you taking, are you sick?¡±


    After Ji Changge opened the bottle of mineral water, she raised her eyes and looked at her motionlessly, making it difficult to see what her emotions were. After a long while, Ji Changge shook her head: ¡°It¡¯s just vitamins.¡±


    Chen Lulu nodded when she heard it. The next second, she stretched out a hand to her carelessly: ¡°Vitamins, I want some too!¡±


    Ji Changge looked at her for a moment and nodded: ¡°No problem.¡±


    After that, Ji Changge lowered her head and reached out to dig in her pocket, then took out two small bottles and handed them to Chen Lulu.


    Chen Lulu took a look at the small bottles and saw that they were vitamin B2 and C. It was really vitamins. Chen Lulu finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her worries were unnecessary.


    After putting the small bottle aside, Chen Lulu put a few more spare ribs into her bowl: ¡°I will eat faster, so you won¡¯t have to wait too long.¡±


    Ji Changge raised her eyebrows: ¡°It¡¯s okay, slow down, don¡¯t worry. Anyway, I¡¯m free today.¡±


    After speaking, Ji Changge paused for a few seconds. Then, she stretched out her hand and took out the blue medicine box from her pocket to take a look, her eyes filled with gloom. After a moment, Ji Changge put it back in place, unscrewed the mineral water and took a sip, looking at Chen Lulu, who was sitting on the opposite side and gnawing on the ribs.


    Chen Lulu took a bite of the ribs and soup, and added a shrimp tofu ball from time to time. When she got up, she would shake her body, which was very cute. Looking at her, a faint smile appeared on Ji Changge¡¯s lips.


    Fish hot pot restaurant.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had settled their bill and left the box and walked out, because both of them just ate, Ye Kehuan decided to go shopping outside first, and then go back to pack up her things later.


    Before they knew it, the two of them walked from the restaurant to the main street.


    At night, the city was bustling with traffic and dimly lit, and it had a unique view. The two people walked side by side, their shadows drawn on the ground by the street lights, and everything seemed extraordinarily quiet and natural. The feeling was actually pretty good.


    While the cold wind was blowing, Ye Kehuan, wrapped in her clothes, stared into the distance, and sighed, ¡°Laien.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her sideways.


    But at that moment, Ye Kehuan shook her head, and after a while, she suddenly laughed.


    Jiang Laien also laughed: ¡°What did you think of, laughing so happily?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing. I just think¡­¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head and looked ahead. ¡°It¡¯s still a bit unbelievable. I really can¡¯t believe you became my girlfriend.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s because you are stupid, as I have explicitly said so many times.¡± Jiang Laien looked at the ground and muttered, dissatisfied.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her sideways and did not argue, but just held her hand and continued to walk slowly: ¡°Then you are not allowed to do that thing where you run away without saying anything again.¡±


    Jiang Laien heard that, looked down at her and held her hand firmly, and sighed: ¡°What are you talking about¡­¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t know how sad I was after you left.¡± Ye Kehuan took a deep breath, her jaw loosening. ¡°At that time, everyone around me said that I was like a different person, and almost no one dared to talk to me¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and scratched her forehead, smiling a bit foolishly: ¡°Because they never knew when I would explode, and then it would hurt everyone. No one dared to replace you for me, because I won¡¯t even bother learning their name.¡±


    After Jiang Laien heard that, she couldn¡¯t help squeezing Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand.


    ¡°I used to intend to completely block you from my memory, but I still couldn¡¯t help but look through the movies you starred in in the middle of the night, and then continued to pretend that nothing happened that day. I really, I¡¯ve never been able to forget a person like this, so, if you can, I hope you can always stay with me¡­¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her.


    With their eyes facing each other, Jiang Laien¡¯s nose suddenly became sore: ¡°You thought I wanted to leave you. If it weren¡¯t because I couldn¡¯t watch you in love with someone else, how could I make such a choice? Who wouldn¡¯t want to stay with their love? Maybe there are some people who can bear the pain of the cuts made by someone they like.¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard that, her body stiffened, and then she hurriedly stood in front of her: ¡°Crying?¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Jiang Laien sniffed, ¡°Do you think I was better off after I left? No. No matter what I did, I would think of you. I wrote you a lot of letters, but I didn¡¯t send them out.¡±


    When Jiang Laien said that, she grinned again: ¡°In order to forget you, I actually forced myself to like others, but I couldn¡¯t help but compare them to you. Then I found out that there was no way I could like others, because you were always in my heart.¡±


    Ye Kehuan frowned and looked at her: ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    ¡°What ¡®I¡¯m sorry¡¯, you didn¡¯t like me at that time, and you didn¡¯t do anything wrong.¡± Jiang Laien frowned.


    ¡°I made you feel wronged.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her hair.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Jiang Laien shook her head, ¡°let¡¯s go back, you have to pack things today, after all, you will go to your next crew tomorrow.¡±


    Ye Kehuan originally wanted to say something, but at that moment, her mobile phone rang suddenly. Ye Kehuan had to take out her phone first, and saw Cheng Xin¡¯s number displayed on it.


    Upon seeing this, Ye Kehuan immediately picked up her phone and asked as she walked: ¡°Hello? Sister Chen, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s this. Charles Schwab said today that they want to invite you to participate in a reality show! At present, the guests they want to invite include you, Jiang Laien, and Cheng Yan. Such a hot lineup! This is true. It¡¯s a rare opportunity!¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s voice was extremely excited, even though she was on the phone, one could imagine her smiling face complete with foaming mouth.


    ¡°Why is Cheng Yan¡­ Schwab?¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback for a half a second, looked at Jiang Laien, and then continued with her call, ¡°What kind of show is it?¡±


    ¡°¡®My Mother and I: Travel Diary¡¯, the shooting time is one month. It will probably start shooting in March and April. I don¡¯t know if you have watched the previous season. This is mainly about shooting you and your mom traveling together. Those who eat, drink, and have fun will not suffer, and there will be no financial pressure, but you can also bring your own money to spend.¡± Cheng Xin smiled.


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned again, ¡°Wait, I think it might not work well, my mother doesn¡¯t even like me mixing in the entertainment industry¡­¡±


    ¡°Why? To be honest, I know someone on the crew very well. I heard that this show was something your mother stuffed you in¡­¡± Cheng Xin was a little confused.


    ¡°What?¡¯ Ye Kehuan was more confused than her, how could that be? At that moment, Ye Kehuan¡¯s shock was no less than that of being blown away by a guided missile.


    ¡°Wait a minute, I¡¯ll call her first to ask.¡± After quickly sorting out her thoughts, Ye Kehuan hung up Cheng Xin¡¯s number after speaking, and instead dialed the number of her mother.


    After the phone rang for half a minute, the call was finally connected. Before Ye Kehuan could speak, she heard a rustling ring out on the other side of the phone. Then, her mother¡¯s voice came: ¡°This bag looks pretty good, how much is it? One hundred eighty thousand, which is quite cheap. If I get one for you, how much will it be? Three hundred and sixty thousand? Okay, I¡¯ll have it. Gee, this bag is really beautiful¡­¡± [Approximately 54,000 USD for comparison.]


    Obviously, her mother was not talking to her, but instead an employee in a luxury store. Sure enough, her mother was either on her way to buy something or on her way to eat. The most important thing was that this powerful woman not only spent money, but also had a lot of money. Ye Kehuan and her dad often had to ask her mother some questions.


    Sighing, Ye Kehuan finally couldn¡¯t help it: ¡°Mom!¡±


    ¡°Hey! Girl, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Mommy Ye finally realized that she was called by her daughter, ¡°I told you, I just saw a bag that is very beautiful. I bought it for you and asked them to send it to you, don¡¯t you want it?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want¡­¡± Ye Kehuan felt helpless, ¡°Mom, I just heard that you spent money to put me in a show?¡±


    Mother Ye laughed twice: ¡°Are you talking about ¡®My Mother and I: Diary of Showing Off Wealth¡¯?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s a travel diary!¡± Ye Kehuan corrected.


    Mother Ye said ¡°Oh oh¡± twice: ¡°What did you say about spending money, how vulgar, this is called an exchange of interests. I give people what they want, and people give me what I want. It is reasonable, you know?¡±


    ¡°It seems that changing the wording to a pleasant statement can change the essence¡­¡± Ye Kehuan muttered, ¡°No, don¡¯t you and dad hate me entering the entertainment industry? Why did you intervene now?¡±


    She really didn¡¯t understand. Could there be a conspiracy?


    ¡°Yeah, it was originally annoying, but what is that compared to being bullied by others?!¡± Mother Ye¡¯s voice was like an ice queen¡¯s.


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°I heard that the surname Cheng has been shadowing you every day? Chao Mingqing told me that she used to bully you on crews before, and she always uses yin and yang language to satirize you as a poor ghost. Poor ghost. There are also those netizens who always say that you sleep for money for resources and connections, and the speculations are too ugly. Even if you don¡¯t want face, I, your mother, want face, ha ha ha ha ha.¡± Mother Ye punctuated her tirade with eerie laughter. 1


    ¡°So, Mom, what do you want to do?¡± Ye Kehuan was stunned.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t I just participate on the show with you, why, do you not want to spend some time with your little mother?¡± Mother Ye replied.


    For a moment, Ye Kehuan was choked, but there was nothing she could say, and her brain could not keep up with her mother. She just felt that her mother¡¯s purpose was not so simple.


    At that moment, Mama Ye suddenly changed the conversation and her voice smiled: ¡®My dear, have you worked hard in filming recently? Is that enough money for you to earn? I¡¯ll just give you tens of millions as pocket money.¡±


    ¡°No need, no need--¡± Ye Kehuan refused immediately.


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s late, I have to go.¡±


    Ye Kehuan almost choked to death on her own saliva.


    ¡°Okay, I won¡¯t say more. I¡¯m going to try the best food there. Say hello to Jiang girl on my behalf, and goodbye.¡± After Mama Ye finished speaking, she hung up the phone casually, leaving Ye Kehuan alone facing her phone screen in a daze.


    Ye Kehuan put down her phone and was about to talk to Jiang Laien, but saw that she was tapping on her phone at the moment.


    ¡°Laien?¡± Ye Kehuan put her phone in her pocket.


    ¡°Are you going to participate in that show?¡± Jiang Laien asked, raising her head.


    ¡°Are you going to?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°If you go, I¡¯ll go.¡± Jiang Laien said, brushing the hair on her shoulders.


    Ye Kehuan laughed after listening, ¡°Do you really want to work with me so badly?¡¯


    Jiang Laien listened, snorted coldly, and continued to walk quickly: ¡°Narcissistic.¡±


    Ye Kehuan stood there laughing for a long time, then trotted to follow her: ¡°Then I will you as you want.¡±


    ¡°Shameless.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head to glare daggers into her again.


    Ye Kehuan smiled brightly: ¡°You always knew that I was shameless.¡±


    ¡°Then I should go.¡± Ye Kehuan said, opening Cheng Xin¡¯s chat box.


    After Jiang Laien glanced at her from the corner of her eye, a sweet smile appeared on her cheek.


    When they returned to the homestay, it was not too late. After Ye Kehuan opened the door, Jiang Laien also followed her in.


    Turning on the central air conditioner, Ye Kehuan went to the cabinet again, and then pulled a large black suitcase out of it, ready to pack her things.


    ¡°I forgot to ask you, how big is your role in this movie?¡± Jiang Laien saw Ye Kehuan¡¯s script on the bedside table and picked it up.


    ¡°It¡¯s not too much, after all, it¡¯s just a supporting role. It shouldn¡¯t take too long in total. I guess it will take ten days all in all.¡± Ye Kehuan opened the closet and looked at the line of clothes inside, thinking, what to bring to the set.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Jiang Laien nodded, opened the script, and paced there slowly, ¡°I forgot to ask you before, who are you acting as here?¡±


    Ye Kehuan took out a black coat, put it on the bed, and folded it: ¡°Wu Qiyun. A psychologist. She¡¯s cool, gentle, and intellectual. I haven¡¯t played this kind of role before. It¡¯s quite far from me, but I¡¯m quite looking forward to it.¡±


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t speak anymore, just rubbed her chin and looked at the script. She read very fast, plus she only picked the parts played by Ye Kehuan to read. That way, it would be faster. Before she knew it, she finished reading.


    After reading it, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but frown: ¡°Why are there so many kisses?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her.


    ¡°Why are there so many kiss scenes? Your overall scenes are not much, yet there are still so many kiss scenes¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s brows were almost twisted into flowers, and she flipped through the script back and forth, her whole aura turning unmistakably sour.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan stopped putting her clothes in the suitcase, then stood up, grinned at the corners of her lips, walked behind Jiang Laien, stretched out her hands to caress the sides of her waist, and put her chin on her shoulder, nodding gently: ¡°Are you jealous?¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s whole body was slightly stiff, her shoulders slouched slightly, her head turned halfway, and she turned to look at the script: ¡°Where do you see that?¡±


    ¡°No? Then why is the word ¡®upset¡¯ written on your face?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and pulled her hair to one side, revealing a small white and delicate neck.


    ¡°If you shoot, just shoot, who cares about you. I bet you¡¯ll enjoy filming it.¡± Jiang Laien said, closing the script and throwing it back on the bedside table.


    ¡°Really angry?¡± Ye Kehuan walked around her and looked at her with a smile.


    Jiang Laien glanced up at her and shook her head: ¡°Why should I be angry?¡±


    ¡°Because you don¡¯t want to see me kissing other people,¡± Ye Kehuan raised her chin and raised her eyebrows. ¡°No?¡±


    ¡°No¡­¡± Jiang Laien met her gaze, only feeling that her gaze seemed to be hot, igniting every cell in her body.


    ¡°It¡¯s all fake,¡± Ye Kehuan stared into her eyes, and stroked her lips with her fingers, ¡°I¡¯ll only ever be real with you.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan tilted her head and kissed her lips. Suddenly, Jiang Laien¡¯s breathing became hurried again. She found that as long as she was in front of Ye Kehuan, she was really hopeless. She was still sour and unhappy, but as long as she was tempted by Ye Kehuan, she could forget everything, and would become happy in an instant. Some thoughts that were difficult to describe were brought up.


    With lips almost still connected, Ye Kehuan growled, ¡°Hold me.¡±


    Jiang Laien gulped, and inexplicably did what she said.


    ¡°Teeth, loosen.¡± Then Ye Kehuan gave the next command in a lazy and gentle voice.


    Jiang Laien only felt that she had fallen into her world completely, and her hands could not help but clutch the shirt on her back¡­


    TL/N


    1 - Yin and yang language refers to someone who is good at reversing the yin and yang, or changing black to white, and many other ways of saying it. Basically, they use sarcasm to insult people by praising them and things of that nature.


    I don¡¯t like to add notes mid-chapter, but I feel like it¡¯s worth putting that note for the money in, to give context to just how disgustingly rich Ye Kehuan¡¯s family is. No point in hiding it anymore.

 CH 53

    The next day.


    In the afternoon, after Ye Kehuan finished filming her scenes, she was about to rush to her crew in the next city.


    She wanted to talk to Jiang Laien, but because Jiang Laien was still filming, Ye Kehuan had to watch from a distance. At that time, Jiang Laien was filming the part of Qi Luo¡¯s memories during her lifetime, which was also part of Qi Luo¡¯s participation in a gala during her life.


    She was wearing a chic tailored aqua-blue dress, walking down the spiral staircase of the magnificent hotel, holding a wine glass in her hand as she shuttled among the crowd. That day, Jiang Laien¡¯s face was exquisitely made-up, and her long, thick, dark hair was laid out like seaweed, and her every move was very charming. Although everyone on the scene was used to seeing beauties, they still could not withstand seeing her live.


    Chao Mingqing had a big bag on her shoulders. Standing next to Ye Kehuan and looking at Jiang Laien in front of her, she couldn¡¯t help but ¡°wow¡± and sighed: ¡°How can there be such a beautiful person like Sister Laien in this world? Ah, God really favors her too much. Sure enough, some people are just born different.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan laughed, folding her arms and continuing to look at Jiang Laien¡¯s figure: ¡°She is such a person.¡±


    Chao Mingqing nodded, and continued to sigh: ¡°There must be a person who saved the galaxy in their previous life in order to marry her.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her: ¡°Do you think I look like a person who saved the galaxy?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Chao Mingqing was stunned for half a second.


    ¡°Just kidding.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand and waved it.


    ¡°You look like a person who bombed the Milky Way.¡± Chao Mingqing muttered.


    Ye Kehuan heard that, but didn¡¯t bother to care about her. She didn¡¯t know when it started. The relationship between her and Chao Mingqing had surpassed the relationship between celebrities and assistants, just like two bosom buddies.


    Not long after, Jiang Laien finished filming the scene. After watching the monitor for a while, she walked towards Ye Kehuan in her dress.


    ¡°Are you going to leave now?¡¯ Standing in front of Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien looked at the bags that she and Chao Mingqing each pulled over their shoulders.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan looked down at the time, ¡°it¡¯s time to go.¡±


    ¡°Then you must pay attention to your safety on the road.¡± Jiang Laien loosened her dress and looked in her eyes.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°I will, so you as well, remember to take good care of yourself. Don¡¯t miss me too much.¡±


    ¡°Who would miss you.¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance.


    ¡°Hahaha.¡± Ye Kehuan laughed happily, then picked her bag up again.


    Chao Mingqing, who had been somewhat dull at first, looked at them, and suddenly realized, were these two people too close?


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s not life or death. You¡¯ll see her in a few days.¡± At that moment, Chen Fei walked by and dropped a word casually.


    Ye Kehuan was happy: ¡°Director Chen, wait until I come back to bring you some specialties from over there!¡±


    ¡°All right, bring me some local cigarettes from there, I really like them.¡± Chen Fei finished speaking, and continued to walk to the monitor.


    Ye Kehuan yelled in response to him, turned her head, and looked at Jiang Laien with a smile: ¡°Then I¡¯m leaving.¡±


    ¡°Go,¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and patted her arm. ¡°As for the role, please find me if you don¡¯t understand.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded, let out a sigh of relief, tightened the strap of the bag on her shoulder, and then turned around together with Chao Mingqing and walked outside the hotel.


    After watching her leave, Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and stroked her arm, only to feel a little unhappy, as if she was hollowed out. It was a strange feeling, which Jiang Laien never felt as long as Ye Kehuan was there.


    When Cheng Yan on the other side saw Ye Kehuan leave, she lifted the corners of her lips and laughed.


    Finally, that obnoxious guy left. Taking advantage of her absence, she had to forge a good relationship with the people on the crew. Thinking of this, Cheng Yan walked to Jiang Laien: ¡°Senior Jiang, are you free tonight?¡±


    Jiang Laien turned to look at her, and asked in confusion, ¡°Is there something wrong?¡±


    ¡°In fact, it¡¯s nothing, but I heard that there is a net red fish hot pot in Chongyuan. It has a good reputation and seems to be delicious. Would you like to try it?¡¯ Cheng Yan smiled innocently.


    Jiang Laien raised her hand to arrange her earrings: ¡°I was there last night. If you really want to go, ask someone else, such as Sister Lu Yan. I am a little tired today, and I want to go back to rest soon.¡±


    That was half true, she had indeed been there, but she was not tired, instead she didn¡¯t want to be with Cheng Yan.


    Cheng Yan¡¯s mouth twitched when she heard that, but she could only smile and nod her head, but she felt uncomfortable. They were all human beings. When Ye Kehuan made an appointment, Jiang Laien ran with her. She took the initiative to lower her face to make an appointment, but she always missed the nail. The more she thought about it, the more irritable she became. Cheng Yan condensed her eyebrows and bit her lip, looking at Jiang Laien¡¯s departing back, almost exploding.


    After Ye Kehuan and Chao Mingqing walked out of the hotel together, they got into the nanny car that was parked outside with a black film reel on it.


    It was two o¡¯clock in the afternoon. If there was no traffic jam, it would be almost four o¡¯clock in the afternoon when they arrived. Along the way, Ye Kehuan was bored, and repeatedly looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s Weibo.


    She used to be jealous of Jiang Laien¡¯s photos with others, but now she was not jealous. Anyway, Jiang Laien was hers. Clicking on the photo Jiang Laien took with her that day, zooming in further and further, Ye Kehuan grinned from ear to ear.


    Chao Mingqing, next to her, saw it and blinked a few times, biting into a chocolate bar: ¡°Boss Ye, you look like an idiot now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened and glanced at her: ¡°Eat your chocolate bar.¡±


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Chao Mingqing bulged her cheeks.


    ¡°Wait, share it with me.¡± Ye Kehuan spread her hands.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Chao Mingqing handed her the chocolate bar.


    So Ye Kehuan unceremoniously broke off two-thirds and delivered it to her mouth.


    Chao Mingqing looked at the tiny chocolate bar she had left, grieving: ¡°Boss Ye, I want to crucify you on Weibo and say that you bully your assistant and take your assistants only food they have. It¡¯s inhumane!¡±


    ¡°Go, go petty man.¡± Ye Kehuan held the chocolate bar and continued to open a CP article between herself and Jiang Laien, in a good mood.


    ¡°Oh, by the way, boss, these are some gifts, letters, etc. you have received recently.¡± Chao Mingqing said, putting a big bag of things next to Ye Kehuan.


    Upon seeing that, Ye Kehuan quickly finished eating her chocolate bar, put down her phone, and checked the contents of the bag.


    Because she emphasized on Weibo that she did not accept gifts and only accepted letters, over time, even if her big fans gave gifts, they were mainly handmade gifts.


    In the bag, there were dozens of handwritten letters, some fan-made keychains, puppets, etc. They were very cute. Picking up a fan-made keychain and dangling it in the air, Ye Kehuan tilted her head and asked Chao Mingqing: ¡°How is it, cute, right?¡¯¡±


    ¡°Good-looking!¡± Chao Mingqing nodded frantically.


    ¡°I won¡¯t give it to you even if it looks good, my fans gave it to me.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she added it to her keyring carefully.


    Chao Mingqing sat next to her, pouting contemptuously: ¡°I don¡¯t want it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan grinned, then took out a small box from the bag and opened it. She saw a small card laying in it, and when she looked at the handwriting, it was from her mother. She took a closer look, and as expected, she saw her mother¡¯s writing on the top: ¡°Baby, I saw this watch today and it feels very suitable for you. I will buy it for you. Remember to wear it. Don¡¯t hurt your old mother¡¯s heart!¡±


    After reading it, Ye Kehuan raised her hand to hold her forehead, then smiled and shook her head, picked up the watch, and put it on her wrist. After putting it on, Ye Kehuan raised her wrist and looked at it. It was strange that hers and her mother¡¯s aesthetics finally crossed.


    After that, Ye Kehuan took out the stack of letters from the bag and looked at them carefully.


    Those letters came from all corners of the world. They were written by men and women, elementary school students to adults. Their contents were different, but they had many similarities. Some comforted her not to be affected by certain vicious remarks on the Internet, some expressed their crazy likes to her, some asked her to cheer, and some were concerned about her health and told her to remember to stay warm.


    After touching her chin and reading them one by one, Ye Kehuan laughed. After that, she neatly packed the letters into the mezzanine of her bag, and then posted a Weibo: ¡°I have finished reading the letters. Thank you for your concern. I will continue to cheer!¡±


    After more than two hours, Ye Kehuan and Chao Mingqing finally arrived at their destination together.


    When she got out of the car, Ye Kehuan passed a box to Chao Mingqing and went to the hotel to check in. After putting down her things, she hurried to the studio.


    At that time, there was turmoil on the set. After seeing Ye Kehuan, the people who were idle would still actively greet her on the surface. After all, Ye Kehuan was now completely different from before. Not to mention her popularity, **** was much less than before, and she also had a good relationship with actress Jiang Laien. Who didn¡¯t want to have a good relationship with her? It was just another matter of what they thought in private.


    ¡°Hello there.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan was fascinated by the filming of the male and female protagonists, a voice suddenly rang out behind her. After Ye Kehuan heard it, she immediately turned around, only to see that the person who came with Qin Keyin, who was going to play a couple with her.


    Her eyebrows were light, not pretty, but they were very neat, and her clothes were simple and plain. Her down jacket, jeans, and single ponytail were quite reserved, without the aura of a big star. However, the feeling shown on Weibo was very different. In reality, she didn¡¯t look cold and imposing.


    After Ye Kehuan saw her, she immediately laughed, ¡°Hello.¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m Qin Keyin, playing Xu Qiao.¡± Qin Keyin stretched out her hand, showing a clean and fresh smile.


    ¡°I¡¯m Ye Kehuan, playing Wu Qinyun,¡± Ye Kehuan shook hands with her, smiling brightly, ¡°I would like to look forward to our cooperation.¡±


    ¡°I saw you and Jiang Laien on your last show,¡± Qin Keyin said and smiled. ¡°You cook really well, I was almost drooling looking at it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled and looked at the ground: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°I haven¡¯t even started praising you. You haven¡¯t seen how dark my cooking is. I learned your method and made a candied potato, and almost burned the pot through.¡± Qin Keyin said, shaking her head and stretched her eyebrows and she sighed.


    ¡°In fact, cooking is quite simple. Just try a few more times. Generally speaking, it is because of inexperience.¡± Ye Kehuan folded her arms. After all, kitchen geniuses like herself were rare.


    ¡°Okay, then I will try more, maybe it will be fine,¡± Qin Keyin looked at her thoughtfully, and then said: ¡±Seriously, I feel that you look much better than on TV.¡±


    ¡°Ha, do I? Thank you,¡± Ye Kehuan paced on the stop, coming and going, ¡°you too.¡±


    ¡°Qin Keyin!¡± At that moment, the director shouted towards them.


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s time for me to shoot, I¡¯ll be going first.¡± Qin Keyin finished speaking, took off her jacket, wearing a white shirt and black pleated skirt with youthful vitality, and hurried over there.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t speak either, just watched her go. I feel that this person is pretty good and easy to get along with?


    No longer staying there, after looking at the time, Ye Kehuan and Chao Mingqing also walked into the dressing room, ready to do their styling. After all, she was in a hurry. If the crew ran on two sides, the time would be fully utilized. Therefore, although Ye Kehuan came there today, the director also arranged a filming plan for her.


    When Ye Kehuan entered the dressing doom, two actors who passed by her saw Ye Kehuan, rolling their eyes secretly, and started whispering when they left:


    ¡°I really don¡¯t understand why she is popular.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand either. Hey, did you see the watch on her hand? It seems to be worth millions.¡±


    ¡°It was given by a gold master. It seems that what the Internet said is correct. If it weren¡¯t for having a gold master, how could her resources be so good that she could even receive a role in Chen Fei¡¯s drama?¡± 1


    ¡°Hey, the entertainment industry really sucks. There is not much attention toward talented people like you, but idiots like her get popular.¡±


    ¡°No way, this society is so sick now¡­¡±


    ¡­


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what they were talking about, but was attended to by the stylist quietly there. Her styling was not complicated. After all, she was played as a psychiatrist, so she wore simple clothing and her makeup was very low-key, close to the appearance of plain makeup, and it took almost no time to finish.


    At first glance, it doesn¡¯t feel much different from what I usually look like, but my clothes have changed.


    At 7:30 in the evening, it was finally Ye Kehuan¡¯s turn to act.


    She was going to shoot two scenes that day. One scene was to enlighten the heroine Li Jiayi and provide psychological counseling for her, and the other was after she got off work, she was blocked by Xu Qiao at the entrance of the hospital. The two go together to the supermarket to buy vegetables and go back to cook or something.


    When the actors in the crew saw Ye Kehuan walk next to the director, they basically sneered at her. Lao Pujie thought she was a little flower who knew nothing. Lao Pujie also felt uncomfortable. Everyone felt that he was strong and that he should be red, but he did not become red. In that way, Ye Kehuan¡¯s existence was very eye-catching.


    At the same time, everyone was waiting for Ye Kehuan to make a fool of herself while filming. After all, who didn¡¯t know that Ye Kehuan was the queen of bad movies, the queen of NG? Ye Kehuan¡¯s previous roles were only for spicy eyes.


    After Ye Kehuan followed the director into a furnished office, she was officially ready to shoot.


    The first scene was simple and not simple. She only needed to wear a white coat and sit in front of the office desk, chat with Li Jiayi to find her psychological crux, and then gradually enlighten, but some small movements and flickers of the eyes were required to pass off the character.


    With the sound of the director¡¯s ¡°Action¡±, the actor Feng Lin, who played Li Jiayi, sat down in front of Ye Kehuan, while the other people also stood by and watched the scene.


    ¡°Tell me about your situation, how have you been feeling recently?¡± Ye Kehuan released the mouse, looked away from the computer at her, smiling at the corners of her lips, naturally giving out a free and easy feeling.


    Although only one line was spoken and there were no major physical movements, Ye Kehuan showed the character¡¯s personality very naturally. What kind of feeling was that? That was the kind of feeling where she was not acting at all, that she was the character herself.


    Feng Lin and the other people around looked at each other, and couldn¡¯t help being stunned. They had all seen Ye Kehuan¡¯s dramas before, and obviously, her acting skills were pretty bad. No matter who she played, she looked the same. Who was this? Did she really defeat Cheng Yan to get the heroine role of ¡°Black Bites¡± with her own strength?


    ¡°Recently, I always feel scared and afraid of everything. If there is a little movement in the house, I suspect that someone is prying the door open to come in and kill me. I am also afraid when I go out. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because of the accident that caused me to be afraid of seeing similar things. Am I just a delusional victim?¡± Feng Lin rubbed her hands, her voice very soft.


    Ye Kehuan turned and wrote, her expression light and her voice gentle: ¡°Are you very sure that someone will harm you or are you just worried that someone will harm you?¡±


    Feng Lin was silent for a moment: ¡°Worried.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded and didn¡¯t make any movement. She just looked at her: ¡°You are just overly sensitive, but you don¡¯t have any bad symptoms. Your nerves are just too tight right now.¡±


    Feng Lin looked at Ye Kehuan, and suddenly felt that the other party really seemed to be a doctor. Acting with Ye Kehuan, she didn¡¯t feel any awkwardness or smoothness. Moreover, her emotions could also be stirred by her, and she couldn¡¯t help but start to doubt the rumors about her on the Internet.


    She felt that this person was very strong.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the first scene was filmed, one shot, no NG, even though Ye Kehuan had a lot of lines. She didn¡¯t make any mistakes, and everyone around was shocked. They felt like they saw someone¡¯s real consultation there, and then it was over. Qin Keyin was also a little surprised, and then laughed again.


    After it was over, the director was also dumbfounded. Ye Kehuan¡¯s growth rate was too fast, and her acting skills were much better than when she auditioned.


    Ye Kehuan also let out a sigh of relief. Originally, she was worried that she would not be able to act a character who was a bit far from herself, but she did not expect to control it easily.


    In the blink of an eye, the second scene began to be filmed, and everyone evacuated the entrance of the hospital.


    After turning on her phone, Ye Kehuan walked out of the hospital, stood at the door and looked at the tableau below, and then looked around. Compared with the previous consultation, Ye Kehuan¡¯s expression changed a little, as if she was tired.


    At that moment, Qin Keyin in a white dress suddenly ran out from the side, stood behind her, jumped, and then stretched out her hands to cover her eyes from behind: ¡°Guess who I am!¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips twitched: ¡°Qiaoqiao, stop making trouble.¡±


    ¡°Oh,¡± Qin Keyin replied, and flashed to her side, ¡°I am free today, do you want to have dinner together?¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and glanced at her: ¡°My mother sent me some sauces she made. I plan to buy some dishes and make them by myself, so I won¡¯t go out to eat.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll be with you, okay? I want to taste the sauce made by auntie too.¡± Qin Keyin said, putting her hands behind her back, looking very pretty, completely different from before. Yes, Qin Keyin actually had some acting skills.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s go.¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at her again, and then continued down the steps.


    She behaved quite naturally throughout the process. The director and the people around were stunned again. Working with Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t seem to cost much brain-power at all. Gradually, everyone began to feel that there was a reason why Cheng Yan was pushed down by Ye Kehuan.


    Filming and filming, they eventually arrived at the scene of returning home after buying vegetables.


    Entering the apartment, Ye Kehuan took out the key to open the door and walked in. Qin Keyin followed closely: ¡°Qiyun, do you really want to go back to your hometown for a blind date?¡±


    Ye Kehuan put down the things in her hands and bent over to change shoes: ¡°No, after all, I am at this age. If I don¡¯t go on blind dates, I may really not find a partner.¡±


    ¡°Do you want to find someone that way?¡± Qin Keyin closed the door and hurriedly followed her forward.


    Ye Kehuan took a glass of water: ¡°I¡¯m not looking for someone. Can you take care of me?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll take care of you!¡± Qin Keyin smiled.


    Ye Kehuan squatted down while holding the cup, her eyebrows seemed to be covered with a faint sorrow, and then she leaned on the wall, her eyebrows stretched, pretending to be relaxed, and said, ¡°You are kidding again, you take care of me? The little girl who can only boil water, wants to take care of others?¡±


    ¡°I,¡± Qin Keyin stared at her, then suddenly turned around and picked up the two bags at the door, and walked towards the kitchen, ¡°I will show you! I am not only capable of boiling water!¡±


    Everything went smoothly, until they moved to the kitchen to continue filming, when something went wrong. Because Qin Keyin really didn¡¯t know how to use a knife in reality, so when they were filming, she just took a knife to cut vegetables, and she slanted in. She made a cut on the index finger of her left hand, and blood burst out instantly, which was shocking.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a moment on the spot, then hurriedly turned her head: ¡°Director, she cut her hand, pause for a while, I¡¯ll go grab a band-aid!¡±


    ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    Then, Ye Kehuan ran out, took out a Zhang Band-Aid from her bag and returned to the kitchen, stood next to Qin Keyin, and handed it to her: ¡°Here, wrap it up.¡±


    Qin Keyin took the band-aid, looked at Ye Kehuan, then smiled and curled her eyes: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡±


    However, after Qin Keyin opened it up to put it on, she stopped moving, as if she didn¡¯t know how to put it on properly. Ye Kehuan wanted to finish the filming and go back to chatting with Jiang Laien, so she took the band-aid directly from her: ¡°I¡¯ll put it on for you.¡±


    ¡°Thank you¡­¡± Qin Keyin raised her eyes and looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s serious and handsome face, feeling a little warm inexplicably.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s continue shooting?¡± Ye Kehuan asked after wrapping her quickly.


    ¡°Okay, continue shooting.¡± Qin Keyin nodded.


    After the two scenes were filmed, it was almost nine o¡¯clock in the evening. Fortunately, it was not too late--after all, she was less NG.


    After she and Chao Mingqing ate something casually outside, Ye Kehuan went back to the hotel, put down her bag, and stretched out her hand to rub her shoulders and hammer her waist. Today, she had been in the car for so long and then filmed for a long time. If she said she was not tired, she was lying.


    However, she felt that the crew was quite poor, and the accommodation provided was completely inferior to the ¡°Black Bites¡± crew. But compared to some crews that Ye Kehuan used to stay with, it wasn¡¯t bad. The room was a standard single bedroom with no balcony or bathtub, but the environment was still very clean and tidy, and at least no paint was peeling from the walls.


    After washing up quickly, putting on comfortable pajamas, and drying her hair, Ye Kehuan lay on the bed with her mobile phone, opened Jiang Laien¡¯s WeChat chat box, and sent her a message: ¡°I¡¯m back at the hotel, how about you? ?¡±


    She didn¡¯t know what Jiang Laien was doing, but she didn¡¯t reply to her message quickly. So, Ye Kehuan turned to her circle of friends.


    She saw that Jiang Laien posted a picture of dinner half an hour ago, with the text saying: ¡°Suddenly I feel that eating alone is quite boring.¡±


    Was she expressing in disguise that she wanted to accompany her? Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help laughing, and then gave her a thumbs up.


    After going through her circle of friends for a while, Ye Kehuan returned to the chat interface, only to see that Jiang Laien finally replied: ¡°I¡¯m just coming back. What about over there, are the people in the crew okay to you?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at it and immediately replied: ¡°It¡¯s okay. The girl who acted with me is okay and talks to me more. For other people, I saw them for the first time today, and I started acting as soon as I came. I don¡¯t know much.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°As long as no one bullies you, then I will rest assured.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned over with a smile, and continued typing: ¡°I suddenly felt that God treats me very seriously. Arranging the work of the two of us in this way, instead of telling people that we are a couple.¡±


    There were so many young lovers in the entertainment industry who wanted to work together. They were staying together all the time. Ye Kehuan was really moved to tears.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°You are so beautiful. Speaking of taking mom to the reality show, I suddenly remembered that I haven¡¯t seen your mom for a long time, and I¡¯m still a little nervous about participating in the show and recording together.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was happy: ¡°What are you nervous about? She likes you so much, don¡¯t be nervous.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Yes, yes, does she often go online?¡±


    Ye Kehuan recalled: ¡°Yes, her mobile phone does not leave her hand. In addition to watching some financial matters, she is either playing mentally handicapped games or reading the day¡¯s headlines.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Then did she watch the show we participated in before? What did she say about it?¡±


    Ye Kehuan thought very carefully, then replied: ¡°She said that you look beautiful, your clothes are good, and your personality is good. At first glance, you look like a little padded jacket. In contrast, I am not gentle enough, my clothes are bad, and my mind is not delicate. I don¡¯t know what it is, but she said I look like an iron vest. The heat in the summer makes it suffocating, and the winter chills it too much. She wants to bring me back and put my head into the furnace to rebuild.¡±


    She was really a mother. When she resented her, her mouth seemed to be poisoned, and her words were biting.


    Jiang Laien sent over a smile and crying expression: ¡°Auntie is really interesting, then, does she know ¡®Jiang Ye CP¡¯? If she knows, what does she think?¡±


    Speaking of that, Ye Kehuan wanted to vomit blood and reluctantly typed: ¡°She knows that. She also read a lot of our CP articles. After reading it, she concluded that fans in the world are really na?ve, just like me. Don¡¯t talk about you being a woman, even if you¡¯re a man, she would still look down on you.¡±


    Jiang Laien made a series of laughing expressions: ¡°Auntie, she is really funny, hahaha.¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head, suddenly remembering something, and hurriedly asked, ¡°What about your mother?¡±


    After a while, Jiang Laien replied, ¡°She said that your facial features are exquisite and three-dimensional, but you grew too tall. I don¡¯t know why I didn¡¯t inherit my father¡¯s 1.83-meter excellent gene and grew into a dwarf. She also said that you cook very well. You are very cute, and she would love to try your dishes if she has the opportunity.¡±


    Ye Kehuan felt happy in her heart, and sure enough, she was still a flower loved by all.


    ¡°Okay, then tell her that next time I go to your house to play, I will cook whatever she wants to eat.¡± Ye Kehuan almost grinned with joy.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Okay, okay, I will definitely convey it. By the way, are you comfortable over there?¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows: ¡°Not very comfortable.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Why?¡±


    Ye Kehuan touched her chin and thought for a while: ¡°Because you are not by my side, I always feel empty in my heart, as if something is missing. Say, did you feed me something?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Yes, I gave you a Gu. It is very poisonous, and if you dare to move a little away from me in your mind, it will start to attack, and then your whole body will fester, your life will be worse than death, and finally the Gu will disappear.¡± 2


    Ye Kehuan lay down in a different position, smiling stupidly: ¡°Wow, are you so cruel to me?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Yes, I am super fierce!¡±


    The picture was of a little tiger with an open mouth. It was fierce and cute, and it fit well with Jiang Laien herself.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s thoughts turned: ¡°Yes, yes, super fierce. However, why are you so fierce but as soon as I push you down, you start to purr?¡±


    It was too dirty, Ye Kehuan felt that her thinking was too dirty, but there was no way, she just couldn¡¯t control it.


    In the next second, Jiang Laien sent a series of question marks, which exploded: ¡°This surnamed Ye, do you have the ability to say that again?!!!¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed and continued typing with a smile: ¡°You can only reply like that because you know it deep down, don¡¯t you.¡±


    Jiang Laien seemed to be silent. But before long, Jiang Laien sent a small video over.


    In that little video, water was rippling, and a pair of perfect legs with a hyperbolic curve could be vaguely glimpsed underneath. Then, a white and slender hand suddenly broke into the screen with a little yellow duck, and instantly squeezed tightly: ¡°Did you see it, this is you, you are dead!¡±


    ¡°It is my honor to be strangled to death by you.¡± Ye Kehuan replied.


    Jiang Laien sent a full row of blank eyes. But in that way, Ye Kehuan felt that she was even cuter, and couldn¡¯t even keep up her duplicity and arrogant appearance for an instant.


    Ye Kehuan played the little video back and forth several times, only to find it very tempting: ¡°Are you taking a bath?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Yes, it soothes your body and mind.¡±


    After reading the message, Ye Kehuan¡¯s mouth was slightly dry: ¡°Can the video be taken a little larger?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    ¡°I just think that since you have tempted me, why not be completely tempted?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at the empty bed, and a sense of loneliness emerged spontaneously.


    They had just separated, and somehow, she missed Jiang Laien again. She missed the way she kissed her, the way she hugged her with unfocused eyes, and the taste of her.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°You are talking nonsense again, when did I seduce you? It¡¯s just that your own thoughts are dirty, not pure at all, and you put a pot on me, shameless.¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand to rub her lips and continued typing: ¡°Oh? My thoughts are dirty and impure? Then tell me, what kind of impure thoughts are in my mind now?¡±


    ¡°Who knows?¡± Jiang Laien sent a humming expression.


    ¡°You really don¡¯t know?¡± Ye Kehuan lay down on the bed.


    After a while, Jiang Laien replied: ¡°Stop this, let¡¯s talk more¡­¡±


    ¡°Well, are you going to be wet at that time?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes became a little darker after typing. She didn¡¯t know what Jiang Laien was doing at that time. She only felt that she was like a ball of flame burning her body, but she couldn¡¯t find a catharsis, so she fumbled around.


    Jiang Laien became angry from embarrassment: ¡°You shut up!¡±


    Of course, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t shut up, and even continued typing, and made a request: ¡°I want to open the video, can I?¡±


    After the message was sent, Ye Kehuan stared at the screen. Before she got a reply, she sent a video request directly.


    Since the video popped up for a long time and the other party didn¡¯t pick up, Ye Kehuan thought that she would not pick it up, but unexpectedly, the video was still connected in the end, and Jiang Laien¡¯s appearance instantly jumped onto the screen.


    In the video, Jiang Laien¡¯s wet hair was scattered on her small shoulders, her red lips were contrasted to her snowy white skin, and her eyes were dizzy with mist, so soft. She really looked like a fairy.


    That kind of look was undoubtedly very delicious, and Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but raise her lips, as she looked similar to when she was ¡°emotional¡±.


    ¡°Why are you smiling?¡± Jiang Laien lightly opened her mouth and frowned, pretending to be disgusted.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t really¡­¡± Ye Kehuan turned over and half leaned against the head of the bed, her lips grinning slightly, a meaningful smile appearing.


    ¡°I haven¡¯t, do you think I am someone who only has that kind of thing in my head?¡± Jiang Laien denied with red cheeks, but her heart beat faster, and her legs couldn¡¯t help but slowly close together under the camera.


    ¡°Okay, you said no, then it¡¯s no,¡± Ye Kehuan said, her eyes flashing on her face, then turned to her small white collarbone, and whispered, ¡°But, I want to see a little more.¡±


    She didn¡¯t know why she was so hungry and thirsty, like a person who had been short of water for a long time, and Jiang Laien like the water she desperately needed. Even if she might drown herself in it, she was willing.


    Jiang Laien bit her lower lip tightly, only feeling that her heartbeat became more intense, and licked her lips: ¡°Don¡¯t you think, don¡¯t you think it¡¯s weird?¡±


    ¡°Strange? I just said I wanted to see you, but I didn¡¯t ask for you to do anything in front of me¡­¡± Ye Kehuan said, her voice becoming lower and lower.


    ¡°If you say that, do you want me to do anything else?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s breath had obviously become a little erratic, and her expression gradually turned weird, as if she was trying her best to endure something, her face twitching from time to time. She turned to the side, avoiding the camera, and didn¡¯t face Ye Kehuan.


    Originally, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t want her to do anything, but after she said that, looking at her appearance, she suddenly wanted her to do something. After gulping, Ye Kehuan slowly said, ¡°Then, can you do something I usually do to you? That way, maybe you don¡¯t have to endure so desperately?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand what you are talking about.¡± Jiang Laien put a hand on the bathtub and couldn¡¯t help but squeeze the edge tightly.


    ¡°Why not try?¡¯ Ye Kehuan continued.


    Jiang Laien clenched her lower lip, her eyebrows frowning, and then gradually loosened her grip on the edge of the bathtub, put her hand in the water, stroked her knees, and went all the way up.


    After a moment, the camera shook, and Jiang Laien lifted her chin slightly, her expression becoming particularly enchanting: ¡°I¡­¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan held her breath and looked at her.


    Jiang Laien tightened her lips again, swallowed, and said, ¡°I miss you.¡±


    Before she knew it, her voice had already taken on a little tremor, just like when Ye Kehuan asked her for it.


    ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s wet hair slipped down to her collarbone, and as a result, it was even more delicate: ¡°I¡¯m thinking about everything you do.¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened to her voice, only feeling that there seemed to be a fire burning in her throat at that time, and her eyes became darker.


    ¡°Damn it, you are really good at tormenting people.¡± Ye Kehuan felt that she had become more and more empty.


    ¡°I miss you hugging me.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was as light as a feather, but it made people feel itchy.


    ¡°Other than hugs?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows and continued to ask in a low voice. If it weren¡¯t for their distance at the time, she really wanted to rush over and hug Jiang Laien.


    ¡°There are also kisses.¡± Jiang Laien bit her lip and stared at her, her eyes full of temptation.


    ¡°Where did I kiss?¡± Ye Kehuan clenched her hand into a fist and placed it on her lips. Even at such a distance, all her senses were stimulated and infinitely magnified by the woman in front of her.


    ¡°Here.¡± Jiang Laien lifted her slender white fingers gently, pressing them to her full lips.


    Such a picture was really too stimulating for the human senses, and Ye Kehuan¡¯s throat slipped.


    ¡°Where else?¡± Ye Kehuan locked her eyes on her lustrous lips and lowered her voice.


    In the next second, Jiang Laien tilted her head slightly, took her hand from her lips, and lightly touched her white and elegant neck: ¡°Here.¡±


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes, and some pictures of her and Jiang Laien suddenly appeared in her mind, and then she continued to ask in a dumb voice: ¡°Where else?¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s chest rose and fell with her breathing, and her eye gradually blurred. After a while, a whispering voice came out from her lips: ¡°Below.¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened, squeezed her right hand, a thin layer of sweat forming on her forehead, and she couldn¡¯t help but internally scream.


    TL/N


    1 - Gold master is what we in the West might refer to as a sugar daddy. ¡°A golden palace¡± often refers to where a wealthy man keeps mistresses.


    2 - Gu is an interesting word. It is often translated as insect, but that isn''t accurate. It refers to any poisonous or magical small creature, from ants to snakes to scorpions. If you are a Wuxia, Xianxia, or Xuanhuan reader, you might see it often.

 CH 54

    Ye Kehuan suddenly regretted then, regretted that she had given such guidance to Jiang Laien. Now, she dug a hole for herself, got excited, but was so far away from her, even if she wanted to do something, she couldn¡¯t do anything.


    ¡°Want to come over and play with me?¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien looked towards her again, her red lips pressed close and opened slightly.


    Ye Kehuan endured, ¡°Yes, I want to come over and take you.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s a pity you can¡¯t come.¡± Jiang Laien finished speaking, raising the corners of her lips slightly, and holding the phone away, her appearance pure and gorgeous.


    ¡°When I meet you, you will feel better.¡± Ye Kehuan said in a low voice, staring at her intoxicating appearance in the video.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes gleamed, her pink lips slightly opened, and her voice was soft: ¡°Okay, I¡¯m waiting for you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes and let out a sigh. If it weren¡¯t for work the next day, she really wanted to rush out and take a taxi directly to Jiang Laien.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien left the bathtub, making Ye Kehuan smile. Unfortunately, she held her phone extremely high the entire time, and she didn¡¯t reveal anything Ye Kehuan wanted to see: ¡°Show¡¯s over, I¡¯m going to put on clothes.¡±


    ¡°Must the phone be that high?¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her eyes. The only thing shown on the entire screen was Jiang Laien¡¯s face.


    ¡°Yeah, what can you do about it?¡¯ Jiang Laien fiddled with her hair, revealed her small earlobes, and then put her mobile phone in a place where she could not even see her face.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the white flowered wall displayed on the screen of the phone and sighed, ¡°You are so presumptuous because I¡¯m not next to you, right?¡±


    ¡°Smart.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice came from afar, mixed with the sound of shifting clothes.


    After a while, Jiang Laien reappeared in front of the camera after putting on her pajamas, smiling: ¡°I¡¯m ready.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, finally sneered, and shook her head: ¡°You are ruthless.¡±


    ¡°Okay, I won¡¯t talk to you anymore. I¡¯m going to blow my hair and go to bed. Because I will be busy in the next two days--I asked the director to arrange my role tightly for these two days, so I have to get up early.¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand and ran it through her wet hair.


    Although Ye Kehuan wanted to chat with her for a while, after hearing what she said, she could only hold back her thoughts and nod: ¡°Okay, then you should rest early, keep your spirits up, and don¡¯t break yourself down.¡±


    ¡°Okay,¡± Jiang Laien pursed her lips and nodded, ¡°Then, good night.¡±


    ¡°Good night.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded with a smile.


    After hanging up the video, Ye Kehuan lay on her back on the bed and stared at the ceiling blankly, still feeling empty. With her fingers slightly bent, she raised her right hand and looked at it before her eyes. Then she turned over and got out of bed, walked quickly to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and gave herself a cold water wash to her face. The flames in her depths ignited by Jiang Laien were extinguished.


    However, when she returned to her bed, Ye Kehuan closed her eyes, but Jiang Laien¡¯s various unforgettable appearances could not stop appearing in her mind.


    After reading the script and picking up her phone again, Ye Kehuan checked her circle of friends.


    She saw that Chen Lulu posted a circle of friends two hours before. It was a selfie of her and Ji Changge standing under a tree covered with colorful lights. In the photo, Chen Lulu smiled like a fool, and Ji Changge was wearing a mask, her eyes cold, as if she was reluctant to take pictures, looking like a killer.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, and then sent a message to Chen Lulu: ¡°Are you still in Chongyuan? Are you not returning to Senchuan?¡±


    In the next second, Chen Lulu returned her message: ¡°Yes! I plan to find a house in Chongyuan!¡±


    ¡°Then will you still make clothes?¡± Ye Kehuan asked again.


    Chen Lulu: ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it later, chasing happiness is more important. I decided, I want to try again!¡±


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll go to bed first.¡± Ye Kehuan also admired Chen Lulu. If the average person failed repeatedly, she wouldn¡¯t be able to persist, but this girl was so persistent.


    ¡°Well, okay, bye, I¡¯m going to get her!¡± Chen Lulu sent a series of laughter.


    Energetic enough, very good. Ye Kehuan looked at her phone screen and smiled, then put her phone aside. She didn¡¯t know how long she struggled before she fell asleep.


    After talking to Ye Kehuan, Chen Lulu jumped up from the hotel bed in the next second, grabbed a jacket and put it on, then ran out of the room with her bag and drove to the Four Seasons BBQ.


    After arriving at the destination and getting out of the car, Chen Lulu slammed the door and ran to the entrance of the barbecue restaurant.


    Chen Lulu was quite noticeable, and Ji Changge knew she was there without looking up, so she said, ¡°Don¡¯t ask me to cook for you.¡±


    ¡°I know, I didn¡¯t want to talk about that! Look, what is this?!¡± Chen Lulu said, and immediately showed two tickets in front of Ji Changge.


    ¡°NL¡¯s solo performance?¡± Ji Changge stopped the oiling action of her hand and leaned over. She hadn¡¯t been online much recently, so she had no idea about this matter.


    ¡°Yeah! Tonight from midnight to half-past one, are you going to go? Don¡¯t you like him?¡± Chen Lulu slapped the ticket on her cheek.


    It was really perfect. She was still racking her brains thinking about what reason she had to see Ji Changge that day. But when she checked Weibo, she found that Ji Changge had posted on her Moments before about a singer-songwriter and popular producer that were going to have a small concert in a large bar in Chongyuan. Therefore, she bought tickets without saying a word.


    After listening, Ji Changge checked the time, and then looked at the customers in the store. Seeing that the current diners were almost done eating, she said: ¡°Yes. Thank you.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome!¡± Chen Lulu smiled. Starting from the other party¡¯s hobbies, she only felt that she could be compared to a genius.


    At 11:20 in the evening, the two arrived at the destination and took the elevator to the second floor. After verifying the tickets, they walked to a seat next to a deck under the leadership of a bartender. Afterwards, the bartender put a tablet in front of them, and deliberately bypassing the lowest-grade beer worth 888, he recommended thousands of drinks every second.


    ¡°What do you want to drink? I¡¯ll treat you.¡± Chen Lulu turned her head to look at Ji Changge, and whispered again, ¡°It¡¯s not very good to not drink here, there is a minimum consumption.¡±


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll look at it.¡± Ji Changge said.


    Chen Lulu nodded, then smiled and ordered a wine and fruit plate.


    ¡°But, wait a bit longer and drink less, have you forgotten your lesson of blood from last time?¡± Ji Changge looked at her sideways.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I know.¡± Chen Lulu reached out and patted her chest. ¡°I drank too much that day, and I didn¡¯t take any medicine today.¡±


    Hearing this, Ji Changge nodded and said nothing.


    After a while, the drinks arrived, but because it hadn¡¯t reached midnight, NL hadn¡¯t come out yet.


    After Chen Lulu sent away the lingering bartender, she put a few ice cubes into her and Ji Changge¡¯s wine glasses, and then began to pour the wine: ¡°I heard that the alcohol content of this wine is quite like, basically the same as juice.¡±


    Ji Changge took the wineglass from Chen Lulu, looked around, and then looked at her: ¡°Speaking of which, why do you have sleeping pills?¡±


    Chen Lulu put down the wine and held her chin in her hand: ¡°I was a little anxious and could not fall asleep easily, so the doctor prescribed it. Later, I felt less anxious, but I kept taking the medicine because I still had some. Besides, it would be too sad if I couldn¡¯t sleep anymore. Don¡¯t worry, I don¡¯t have any major problems.¡±


    Ji Changge heard her words and nodded: ¡°That¡¯s good, physical and mental health is the most important.¡±


    ¡°Then, cheers!¡± Chen Lulu said, holding up her glass of wine to Ji Changge.


    Ji Changge touched her cup, then took a sip, frowning. The alcohol content in this wine was still a bit strong. Of course, it may also be because she didn¡¯t know how to drink since she was young. Putting down the cup, Ji Changge was choked with a soft cough.


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you used to drinking?¡± Chen Lulu held up her cup and sat close to her.


    ¡°A little bit.¡± Ji Changge turned her head and looked at her, only to see that she was looking up at her, and the light of the bar created a galaxy in her eyes, which was particularly beautiful.


    Afterwards, Ji Changge turned her head again, took a slice of watermelon, and took a bite.


    In the blind of an eye, midnight arrived, and the surroundings suddenly boiled as one after another person walked onto the dance floor in front, and pictures with the name of NL appeared on the big screen. So the two people left the deck and went to the dance floor with people around.


    NL was a very diversified original musician. Ji Changge had been listening to his songs before stepping into that circle. Even if she was not a diehard fan, she was considered an old fan. But she didn¡¯t know why, she didn¡¯t have much drive to listen on that day, as her eyes would always float to Chen Lulu next to her from time to time, and she saw Chen Lulu being so hilarious next to her, as she danced with those around them.


    Chen Lulu didn¡¯t really listen to this type of music before, but maybe by love or something, because Ji Changge liked it, she gradually felt that it sounded very smooth.


    When she turned her head, Chen Lulu noticed Ji Changge was looking at her, so she smiled: ¡°Why do you keep staring at me, do you like me?¡±


    Ji Changge recovered and shook her head: ¡°Don¡¯t think too much, that¡¯s impossible.¡±


    Chen Lulu heard that, her heart sighing. Although she knew it, no matter what, every time she heard Ji Changge say those words, it was quite uncomfortable. Finally, Chen Lulu grinned and said, ¡°I know, I¡¯m just kidding. Don¡¯t be so serious, it¡¯s really just a joke.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t make this kind of joke often.¡± Ji Changge was expressionless.


    It was another critical hit. Chen Lulu opened her mouth, finally swallowed the whispers in her heart, and nodded: ¡°Okay, yes, I absolutely will never make this kind of joke again!¡±


    Ji Changge stared straight ahead with an inscrutable expression, and finally just said: ¡°I¡¯ll go to the bathroom.¡±


    ¡°Oh, then you go!¡± Chen Lulu smiled.


    Subsequently, Ji Changge turned around and left. After Chen Lulu watched her leave, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and she instantly felt a little unhappy. How afraid was Ji Changge of her liking her? Thinking of that, Chen Lulu reached out and hugged her arms, feeling a bit cold inexplicably, and goosebumps were almost coming out.


    Not long after, a man stood next to Chen Lulu.


    After looking at Chen Lulu for a while, the man finally said, ¡°Miss, can I get your WeChat?¡±


    Distracted, Chen Lulu turned her head and glanced at him, ignored it, and just continued to look at NL in front of her.


    But what she didn¡¯t expect was that the man didn¡¯t stop there. Instead, he continued: ¡°Miss, did you hear me? How about adding a WeChat to make friends? I¡¯ll invite you to drink.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t need it, thank you.¡± Chen Lulu felt unwell and frowned.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be so unfeeling, are you here alone? Isn¡¯t it more fun to have company?¡± The man chuckled, and while talking, he pulled on Chen Lulu¡¯s arm. He looked obviously drunk.


    ¡°I said I won¡¯t want it!¡± Chen Lulu shook her arm and stared at him.


    ¡°Don¡¯t be so stubborn¡­¡± The man said, and reached out to her again.


    At that moment, Chen Lulu originally wanted to say something, but she was suddenly dragged into a warm embrace by one hand, and she was stunned.


    Shrinking from one set of arms, she looked at the arm around her, then slowly turned her head. She saw Ji Changge standing behind her, speaking to the man with a cold expression: ¡°Stay away from her.¡±


    Immediately afterward, before Chen Lulu was able to recover, Ji Changge held her hand and walked out of the noisy bar.


    After going downstairs and reaching the ground floor, a cold wind hit, and Chen Lulu shivered instantly. Then, Chen Lulu twisted her hand: ¡°Okay, it¡¯s okay ,you can let go.¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge paused, but finally let go of her hand: ¡°Shall we go back now?¡¯


    Chen Lulu nodded and was silent.


    Ji Changge glanced at her, without saying more, and walked towards the place where Chen Lulu parked.


    ¡°Hii¡­ whee¡­¡±


    As she walked, Ji Changge turned to look at her after hearing the sound of Chen Lulu behind her. She saw that she was breathing into the palms of her hands, rubbing them together, and zipping up her open collar, looking like it was quite cold.


    Ji Changge turned her head, intending to leave her alone. But before taking a second step, she stopped again. She didn¡¯t even know what she was thinking. She knew that she should keep her distance from her, but she couldn¡¯t see her distressed, whether it was sick, drunk, hungry, or cold. She knew she couldn¡¯t care about her. She couldn¡¯t do it.


    Closing her eyes, Ji Changge turned and stood in front of Chen Lulu.


    ¡°Why don¡¯t you leave?¡± Chen Lulu sniffled her flushed nose.


    Ji Changge was still silent, but in the next second, she tore off the scarf from her neck and put it on Chen Lulu¡¯s neck.


    Chen Lulu shrank her head and looked at her with eyes wide open, but when she met her gaze, she hurriedly lowered her eyes to look at the ground.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Ji Changge put down her hand, put it in her pocket, and said a little, then turned to the parking place and continued walking.


    Chen Lulu grabbed the scarf on her neck with Ji Changge¡¯s warmth, squeezed it tightly, then raised her lips and laughed, and ran forward: ¡°Wait for me!¡±


    ¡­


    The cold winter wind was raging, and people were wrapped up like dumplings, but as an actress and filling a role, Ye Kehuan was still wearing autumn clothes, just like a warrior.


    In the blink of an eye, Ye Kehuan was there for four days. In the past few days, her role was very full. After all, time was limited, so the director allocated more to her.


    Some people in the crew who looked down on her at first came around. Seeing that her acting was really good, they slowly warmed towards her.


    It was just that some people who couldn¡¯t understand her were still uncomfortable. Given her history, there were always countless reasons to hate her. This was also impossible to force. What¡¯s more, the cast of this film were basically roaming empty streets, and only she had more traffic, and the more they roamed the empty streets, the lower their horizons. Although Ye Kehuan also thought it was funny, those people were forced to eat their own jealousy.


    On Tuesday night, when Ye Kehuan finished filming a scene, she just sat down and was about to rest. Chao Mingqing poked her in the arm and handed her her mobile phone: ¡°Hurry up, look, that Cheng Yan started posting innuendos again.¡±


    ¡°What the hell.¡± After Ye Kehuan took her phone, she saw a talk show called ¡°Interview with the Stars at Night¡±, and then she continued watching where Chao Mingqing had paused.


    During the show, Cheng Yan, dressed in Dior¡¯s latest clothing and luxurious jewelry, sat on a beige sofa with a smile on her face, looking really rich and beautiful.


    She listened to the host¡¯s question: ¡°Everyone knows that there is a lot of chaos in this circle, especially as an actress, it¡¯s easy to suffer. You are likely to be embarassed or called to do some services other than work. Have you ever had such trouble?¡±


    Cheng Yan smiled, raised her hand and ran it through her hair, revealing her earrings: ¡°I think generally speaking, generally speaking, that only affects people who have no background, or their strength is weak, so they can¡¯t act in anything. Well, people who desperately want to be popular will have such troubles, and then they are very likely to embark on such a crooked road.¡±


    The host sighed: ¡°So, this world is also very cruel. How pitiful.¡±


    Cheng Yan laughed: ¡°If it is forced, it may be pitiful, but if it is voluntary, I don¡¯t feel any pity. First of all, these people have a problem with their mentality. They don¡¯t know how to improve themselves and take shortcuts instead. I personally feel that their kind of performance harms themselves and others.¡±


    ¡°You don¡¯t think it¡¯s very reasonable?¡¯ The host raised her eyebrows.


    Cheng Yan nodded: ¡°And it also brings unfair treatment to other competitors. For example, a resource was originally yours, but she took it away by some improper methods. I really don¡¯t want to face it.¡±


    The host laughed again: ¡°Then have you ever had this experience? The experience of being robbed of resources.¡±


    Cheng Yan smiled without saying a word, and then said directly: ¡°Can we not talk about this topic?¡±


    ¡­


    After listening, Ye Kehuan raised her hand to caress her neck and tilted her head.


    ¡°Look, isn¡¯t it particularly annoying?¡± Chao Mingqing squatted beside Ye Kehuan, trying to lower her voice, ¡°Isn¡¯t she crazy, doing this deliberately? The last sentence really stands out. What a good white lotus! After losing to you, she¡¯s started to make stuff up. These people on the Internet are also crazy, they even ran out and said that the kind of person she was talking about should be you, and that you are just a poisonous stone, robbing her of resources. Isn¡¯t she the poisonous one?¡±


    Chao Mingqing took back the phone, clicked on a tag on Weibo, and handed the phone to Ye Kehuan: ¡°Also, Boss, you are on the hot search again. Everyone is jumping on the interview with Cheng Yan. The content scolds you to death!¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened and looked at her phone confusedly.


    She didn¡¯t know, but she was shocked when she saw it. The reason why she was being searched at that time was because of the watch on her wrist.


    She didn¡¯t know who took the photo of her wearing the watch and uploaded it to the Internet, but there was a marketing account that started making a fuss. The same copywriting was: ¡°Someone photographed Ye Kehuan wearing XX on her wrist. What do you think of the new limited edition watch?¡±


    A piece of popular science about the watch was attached at the end. It said that the price of the watch¡¯s brand started at one million, and the price of the piece that Ye Kehuan had was as high as nearly 10 million, and barely any were sold worldwide. Those who wanted to get one not only needed to spend a lot of money to buy it, but even needed to rely on relationships to have the chance.


    As a result, the people in the comment section exploded in an instant.


    ¡°How could Ye Kehuan afford such a watch? It¡¯s nearly ten million, not nearly 10,000!¡±


    ¡°I think this watch should be either a fake, or she was indeed packaged.¡±


    ¡°She must be wrapped up. Have you seen that interview with Cheng Yan? It felt like she was saying that Ye Kehuan slept with someone or was bought by someone, and then took a shortcut to grab her resources. Look, Ye Kehuan used to be so poor, wearing cheap brands or even miscellaneous brands, and occasionally a brand out of season, how could it be possible for her to afford such expensive watches?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, her resources have suddenly improved these days, and then there is such a photo, plus it has been said that Cheng Yan¡¯s resources have been seized before, what is going on, think for yourself.¡±


    ¡°Fuck! Yes, Ye Kehuan is really shameless, see how her fans are still doing fancy washing!¡±


    ¡­


    After Chao Mingqing followed Ye Kehuan after reading a bunch of comments, she was really angry: ¡°Boss, are you really sure to let her do this? Your role was earned by your strength, okay? I really can¡¯t bear it. And, it¡¯s not like she said, she is a barren¡­ I¡¯m sorry I¡¯m so crude, I¡¯ll correct it, what kind of green onion is she? Does she think her dad¡¯s small and broken company can talk down to you this way?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t care about her, let her do it if she loves it.¡± It was completely different from Chao Mingqing¡¯s reaction--Ye Kehuan just smiled indifferently.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Chao Mingqing was not appeased, and continued to mumble, ¡°Why don¡¯t you care, look, she is just stupid, but everyone in the Internet is praising her, praising her acting skills as enough to crush all the young flowers of the new generation, praising her as so white and beautiful. That she¡¯s not the same as those usual glamorous and cheap goods, she¡¯s about to be made into a saint, like she¡¯s so pure and clean and not stained with dust. I really¡­¡±


    ¡°Mingqing, have you ever heard this saying?¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her with a smile.


    ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°The higher you fly, the more painful your fall. She will fall sooner or later.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    To be honest, the main reason why she was being questioned now was that her previous acting skills were too poor, which gave people an indelible impression, and that¡¯s why this situation was brought about. But her current self was different from her previous self. When the movies she was filming now came out, the public¡¯s wind would definitely change. In any case, she was quite confident in her current acting skills.


    ¡°Okay¡­¡± Chao Mingqing was still panicked, but in the end she didn¡¯t say anything.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to continue filming.¡± After Ye Kehuan returned her phone to Chao Mingqing, she adjusted the collar of her clothes, stood up, and walked towards the director.


    In the blink of an eye, the day was over.


    When Ye Kehuan returned to the hotel, it was already past 11 o¡¯clock in the evening.


    Going to the bathroom and taking a show, Ye Kehuan poured a glass of water and drank it. She just picked up the script to read it, but suddenly remembered something. The next day was her birthday! Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan glanced at her phone again.


    It was already 11:45 in the evening, and there were only fifteen minutes left! Would Jiang Laien remember? Would she send her a message or make a phone call or something? Ye Kehuan wandered around the room with her mobile phone, like a child looking forward to the New Year.


    Opening WeChat, Ye Kehuan looked at the chat record between herself and Jiang Laien, and saw that the last message in the record was sent by herself, half an hour before, but Jiang Laien had not responded to her yet.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to stroke her chin. What was she doing? Why didn¡¯t she reply to her message? Was she still filming?


    Lying on the bed, Ye Kehuan thought for a moment, and then sent her a message: ¡°I¡¯m back from work, what about you, what are you doing?¡±


    After sending the message, Ye Kehuan glanced at the time again, quietly waiting for her reply. However, after a few minutes passed, Jiang Laien still did not show up.


    After turning and tossing on the bed for a long time, Ye Kehuan jumped out of the bed again, stretched out her arms, and started various stretching exercises.


    In the middle of them, her phone suddenly sounded with a bunch of message pings one after another. Ye Kehuan was happy when she heard them. She immediately turned and jumped into bed, stepped on the bedsheets and ran to the side with her Floating Dragon Footsteps to look at the news.


    Queen Mother: ¡°Happy birthday, baby! Do you have any plans for today? Have a good meal!¡±


    Chen Lulu: ¡°Happy birthday, old iron! I wish you 18 years old forever1¡±


    Supreme Emperor: ¡°Happy birthday.¡±


    Ming and Qing Dynasties: ¡°Boss, I wish you a prosperous new year and be loved by everyone!¡±


    ¡­


    However, the person she put on the top still remained silent. Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help lying back on the bed again. Did you forget it? Or are you busy now? After all, Jiang Laien said before that she would be very busy today. Maybe, I¡¯ll wait a while?


    Thinking about it this way, Ye Kehuan took the script again and turned it over. However, after reading the script for a while, she kept looking at her phone again. Whenever there was an incoming message on the phone, she would pick it up without saying a word. It was just that none of them were sent by Jiang Laien. Even Chen Fei and Liu Ting and Bai Wei posted, but there was still no Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Calm down, she may be busy.¡± Putting down her phone, Ye Kehuan let out a sigh and started doing sit-ups on the bed.


    Time moved slowly, and it became one o¡¯clock in the morning. Ye Kehuan was really a little lost at that moment, and even visited the emotional section of a forum.


    After browsing for a long time, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but grab her phone and dial Jiang Laien¡¯s phone number.


    After about twenty or thirty seconds, finally, the call was connected, and there was a yawn.


    ¡°Were you asleep?¡± Ye Kehuan held her phone and stood by the window, dazed.


    ¡°I¡¯m a little sleepy, so I accidentally fell asleep¡­ Hey¡­¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice did sound very tired, and it felt a little dazed.


    ¡°Then, you, do you want to continue sleeping?¡± Ye Kehuan said softly.


    ¡°No, I slept enough. It seems that I have slept for more than an hour.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice gradually became clear.


    ¡°Well,¡± Ye Kehuan lowered her head to play with the curtains, ¡°Well, today¡­¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong today?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    Ye Kehuan loosened the curtains, scratched her head, and walked to the side: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, but didn¡¯t you say that you are very busy? Are you all done now?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m almost there, oh my god, my legs are so numb¡­¡± Jiang Laien sighed.


    ¡°How did it happen? Did you massage it?¡± Ye Kehuan asked hurriedly.


    ¡°Well¡­ It¡¯s better now,¡± Jiang Laien said.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan heard a ¡°bang¡± sound on the phone, and then, the click of high heels rang, and she asked: ¡°Are you still out this late?¡±


    ¡°Yes, because there is one more thing to do. Calling me so late, do you miss me?¡± Jiang Laien laughed.


    Hearing this, Ye Kehuan thought she still didn¡¯t seem to remember what day it was. For a time, her heart was mixed: ¡°I miss you very much.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯ll see you soon,¡± Jiang Laien said.


    ¡°There are still two or three days.¡± Ye Kehuan frowned.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t speak, but laughed.


    ¡°Actually, I called you to say¡­¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t get the words out of her mouth. In any case, it was too strange to call to remind someone that today was her birthday.


    ¡°Okay?¡±


    ¡°Just wanted to say, you have to take care of yourself when I¡¯m away. Also, this night is so cold, did you wear enough?¡± Ye Kehuan sat on the bed, turned around and picked up the script and threw it on the bedside table and began stroking the sheets.


    ¡°Enough.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    ¡°Okay, then¡­¡± Ye Kehuan raised her head and looked at the ceiling, ¡°Then, you should be busy. I plan to read the script and then go to sleep.¡±


    From beginning to end, Jiang Laien never remembered that today was her birthday. Ye Kehuan lay on the bed and suddenly began to doubt life. Why, because she was not important enough in her heart? In the passed, if Jiang Laien¡¯s other friends other friends had birthday, Jiang Laien, who rarely posted in ten thousand years, would send congratulations on Weibo at that time, but when it was her turn, and she even made a phone call¡­


    Was she inferior to her friends? Although Ye Kehuan thought that made no sense, she couldn¡¯t help but get into those kinds of thorns and couldn¡¯t get out.


    At that time, Jiang Laien just responded indifferently: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Subsequently, the call hung up.


    Ye Kehuan sat there looking at her phone, and was stunned for half a second. Suddenly, the door of her room was banged, and she was so scared that she bounced up and said, ¡°Who is that?¡±


    ¡°Room service!¡± The voice was thick and low, with a unique sense of vicissitude.


    Ye Kehuan walked over and opened the door: ¡°I didn¡¯t call for room service¡­¡±


    However, because Ye Kehuan had finished speaking, a huge bouquet of flowers suddenly slammed in front of her, directly shocking Ye Kehuan to the point of speechlessness.


    After a few seconds, the flowers were lowered, and a beautiful face appeared in front of her. The visitor wore a khaki coat with long, soft hair and a smile like honey.


    After Ye Kehuan saw her, she couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to cover her mouth, released the door frame, took two steps back, and covered her mouth with both hands, surprised and delighted, completely speechless. After a while, she exclaimed: ¡°Oh my god, is this real? Laien? Are you really Jiang Laien?¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter, you don¡¯t recognize me after a few days apart?¡± Jiang Laien groaned.


    ¡°No, I just really¡­¡± Ye Kehuan stepped aside, reached out to the wall, and turned around again, ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect you to come over, you didn¡¯t warn me at all!¡±


    ¡°Then are you happy that I¡¯m here?¡± Jiang Laien continued to ask.


    ¡°Happy, of course I am happy, I¡¯ve yet to go insane!¡± Ye Kehuan said, and walked towards her quickly.


    ¡°You¡¯re incoherent,¡± Jiang Laien corrected. ¡°Fool.¡±


    Ye Kehuan just smirked.


    ¡°Happy birthday.¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien gave her the flowers.


    ¡°I¡¯m very happy!¡± Ye Kehuan carefully hugged the flowers, fiddled with their delicate petals, and smiled from ear to ear, and then hurriedly said, ¡°Come in, come in, it¡¯s cold outside.¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded, and then walked in the door with a cake.


    After Ye Kehuan placed the flowers next to the TV, she tilted her head and looked at them for a moment, then smiled and clapped her hands and turned to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°Are you thirsty? I¡¯ll pour you water!¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded, took off her backpack, and put the cake on a small table.


    When Ye Kehuan got the water and walked over, because she was in a good mood, she didn¡¯t pay attention and almost tripped over a chair. Seeing this, Jiang Laien stood up immediately: ¡°You slow down.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was still happy, and handed the water to Jiang Laien: ¡°I¡¯m fine, let¡¯s drink water.¡±


    Jiang Laien held the water glass, smiled helplessly, and shook her head.


    ¡°Brought me cake?¡± After Ye Kehuan sat down beside her, she pointed to the cake on the table.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Then I will open it.¡± Before Jiang Laien could reply, Ye Kehuan stretched out her hand with a smile on her face to take apart the cake box in a huff.


    Jiang Laien turned her head to look at her profile, and seeing her so happy, her mood became extremely clear, and her heart was full of happiness.


    After unpacking the box, a very cute light blue fondant cake was displayed in front of her, and there were clouds on it, as well as love balloons and the words ¡°Happy Birthday¡±.


    ¡°It¡¯s so beautiful.¡± Ye Kehuan said, and immediately took out her mobile phone and pictured it wildly from all angles.


    Jiang Laien waited for her to finish her photography, then picked up a candle, inserted it into the cake, took out a lighter, pressed the igniter, and lit it: ¡°Come on, make a wish.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan put down her phone, put her hands under her chin, lowered her head, and started to make a wish.


    She had many wishes, but after a while, she couldn¡¯t think of anything else. Her only wish was to be able to stay with Jiang Laien for a lifetime and never be separated.


    After making a wish, blowing out the candle, and cutting the cake, the two ate it together.


    ¡°To be honest, I really thought you had forgotten my birthday.¡± After taking a bite of the cake, Ye Kehuan bit her fork and turned her head to look at her.


    ¡°How is that possible, you think I am you?¡± Jiang Laien dug out a little cake and held it in her mouth.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her.


    Jiang Laien put down her fork and glanced at her awkwardly: ¡°Did you not express anything on my last birthday?¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard that and coughed: ¡°I actually didn¡¯t forget that day. I made a large table of dishes and bought cake. It was just that our relationship was very delicate at that time, so I ended up rushing to remove them all before you came back.¡±


    Jiang Laien was stunned when she heard that, and then, the corners of her lips gradually bent: ¡°So that¡¯s it, fool¡­¡±


    Because of that incident, she was depressed for a long time.


    After eating the cake, it was almost two o¡¯clock in the morning. It was getting late, so Jiang Laien went to take a shower, and Ye Kehuan walked to the bunch of flowers and took a look, and after a long time, she raised her hand and fiddled with them, then dropped her hand and smiled. Why didn¡¯t she think that flowers were so beautiful before? Sure enough, flowers must be given by the right person to make people feel their beauty?


    Walking back to the bed, Ye Kehuan listened to the sound of running water in the bathroom and opened the script again. However, she found that she still couldn¡¯t get into it.


    Her mind was filled with scenes from that video chat, and combined with the sound of water in the bathroom, her mind became uncontrollable.


    My heart has distracting thoughts, and when I read the script, I only feel that the words in it are moving randomly, and I can¡¯t read them at all.


    At that moment, there was a ¡°click¡± from the bathroom door, and Ye Kehuan instantly raised her head and looked over.


    In the mist, Jiang Laien came out wrapped in a bath towel. The silken hair was like ink, her eyebrows like paintings, and her skin was so delicate, like it could be broken by a touch.


    Looking at her, Ye Kehuan closed the script.


    ¡°Why did you come out directly wrapped in a bath towel today?¡± Ye Kehuan put the script aside, as she didn¡¯t usually see her in such an outfit.


    ¡°Forgot to bring pajamas in.¡± Jiang Laien squeezed the bath towel tightly, and walked around.


    Ye Kehuan stood up, approached her, put her hands on her waist, fixed her eyes on her, and pulled her into her arms: ¡°Really?¡¯


    Jiang Laien glanced at the hand she placed on her waist, then raised her face to look at her: ¡°Do you think I¡¯m tempting you or suggesting something to you? Do I look like a person with such a strong need?¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips lightly curled: ¡°Aren¡¯t you?¡±


    Jiang Laien denied: ¡°Of course not, do you think that I would lie to you?¡±


    ¡°Your mouth often doesn¡¯t tell the truth, do you think I still believe it?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°I,¡± Jiang Laien gulped, ¡°when did I do that?¡±


    ¡°No?¡± Ye Kehuan chuckled and smiled, and moved closer to her ear. ¡®During the video that day, I don¡¯t know who it was that kept saying that I couldn¡¯t do anything. Later, I couldn¡¯t get those images out of my head. Who was that?¡±


    Under the lingering breath of Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien bit her lower lip with some trembling, unable to speak a word.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her snow-white neck, and then drifted her hand down: ¡°Why don¡¯t you show me whether you are lying or not?¡±

 CH 55

    What Ye Kehuan¡¯s words meant, Jiang Laien naturally knew, and wanted to refuse, but when her hand was firmly held by her and pressed somewhere and couldn¡¯t move, she instantly felt that she was a little disobedient. Inexplicably, she found herself being moved. With her lips and teeth slightly opened, Jiang Laien lifted her face slightly, only to see those eyes that looked pitiful and very moving.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Ye Kehuan saw her as being a little unstable, so she hugged her.


    ¡°Why are you so extreme, good and bad?¡± Jiang Laien loosened her lips and frowned slightly.


    ¡°Really? Aren¡¯t you bad?¡± Ye Kehuan remembered how she teased her in that video. ¡°If you set a fire without putting it out, sooner or later, the first will burn you.¡±


    Jiang Laien listened to her words, a layer of sweat gradually appearing on her forehead, and a certain kind of yearning rolled in like a wave, making her unconsciously lower her head and open her mouth to breathe. Ye Kehuan looked at her as she endured it to the extreme, only to feel that there was a heat on her back, and couldn¡¯t help but mutter: ¡°Is it so fun to play with yourself?¡±


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t barely answer, but still bit her lip and shook her head: ¡°I don¡¯t want it, to play with myself.¡±


    ¡°Then you want me to accompany you?¡± Ye Kehuan took a shot and raised her face slightly, making Jiang Laien look at her.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s throat slipped, her mouth slightly opened: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Damn it. Ye Kehuan felt that she was completely consumed by the person in front of her. Jiang Laien¡¯s voice an expression, for her, had such powerful lethality, which could always make her sanity disappear in an instant, only wanting to completely claim her. Ye Kehuan stared at her, then slammed her towards her, then tilted her head to cover her lips.


    Under the slightly dim light of the hotel, two pliable figures were closely attached, entangled in one place. As their clothes and bath towel fell to their tin white ankles, as their breaths mixed, the surrounding air seemed to change, becoming far thicker¡­


    Three o¡¯clock in the morning.


    The room became quiet again, but through the crumpled bedding, one could still see how fierce the battle was just then.


    Jiang Laien lay in Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms, her eyes closed and breathing steady. After a while, she opened her eyes again and said softly: ¡°I really missed you. Why is this happening? We barely separated. Heaven, but it feels like months have passed.¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard that and dropped a soft kiss on her forehead: ¡°Me too, thinking about you makes me crazy.¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Jiang Laien adjusted the sleeping position of her head so that she could see Ye Kehuan¡¯s face.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Kehuan closed her eyes and nodded, ¡°Even if you don¡¯t do anything, as long as we can stay together quietly, I am very satisfied.¡±


    ¡°Even if you don¡¯t do anything? Humph.¡± Jiang Laien suddenly let out a mocking smile.


    ¡°What?¡± Ye Kehuan opened her eyes and looked at her.


    ¡°I don¡¯t think you can do nothing.¡± They had not been dating for many days yet, but Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t remember how many times she had been tossed by her. Forget staying together quietly, that woman probably wouldn¡¯t even stay quiet with a ghost.


    ¡°I¡¯m so flippant in your heart?¡± Ye Kehuan asked with a smile, holding her small shoulder.


    ¡°Whether you are serious or not, don¡¯t you know in your heart?¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance.


    Ye Kehuan chuckled: ¡°Actually, under normal circumstances, I¡¯m pretty serious, but I don¡¯t know why, once I see you, I can¡¯t be serious anymore. I just want to be like you.¡±


    Jiang Laien lowered her eyes: ¡°Am I so fun?¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°Well, you¡¯re usually cute, but your look when you can¡¯t be separated from me is even more cute when you¡¯re emotional. Who would have thought that there would be such a side to the innocent Red Buddha in private. Only I can see it.¡±


    ¡°Shut up, if you continue, I will find a needle to sew your mouth!¡± Jiang Laien got anxious.


    ¡°Okay, okay, I won¡¯t say anything.¡± Ye Kehuan laughed loudly, and then hugged Jiang Laien tighter, like a baby.


    After a while, finally, Jiang Laien hesitantly said, ¡°Should I ask someone to bring a new bed sheet?¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan stroked her hair.


    ¡°The bed sheet on my side seems to be,¡± Jiang Laien hated saying it, so she closed her eyes and forced it out, ¡°It¡¯s soaking in a big place.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she realized that she couldn¡¯t stop laughing immediately.


    ¡°Why are you still laughing, it¡¯s your fault!¡± Jiang Laien suddenly became angry.


    ¡°Blame me? Did I wet the sheets?¡± Ye Kehuan played with a strand of her hair.


    Jiang Laien was so angry that she grabbed her hand and bit into it.


    ¡°Hiss--¡± Ye Kehuan frowned, then raised her eyebrows again, ¡°How does it taste?¡±


    ¡°What would it taste like?!¡±


    ¡°I still have someone¡¯s¡­¡± Ye Kehuan smiled.


    ¡°Okay, shut up.¡± Jiang Laien grabbed Ye Kehuan mouth like a little yellow duck, her eyes red and hot as all her blood rushed to them.


    ¡°I¡¯ll stop teasing you,¡± Ye Kehuan chuckled. ¡°Hurry up and put on your clothes. Then I¡¯ll call the front desk and tell them that I accidentally got the sheets wet when I drank water and ask to change them.¡±


    ¡°Oh.¡± Jiang Laien got up from her arms, her ears still too hot. She always thought that that kind of exaggeration would only appear in novels or adult movies, but she didn¡¯t expect that her own physique was not inferior to adult movie heroines. It was really exaggerated.


    After Ye Kehuan put on her pajamas, she looked at Jiang Laien and smiled. She only felt that she was more sensitive and cuter than before.


    After changing the sheets, the two lay down again, picked up their phones, and swiped them.


    Then, they saw some dumbfounding remarks. Netizens really liked to expand infinitely on any small detail, and then diverge their thinking and develop a series of weird associations.


    For example, today was Ye Kehuan¡¯s birthday. Since many people in Ye Kehuan¡¯s circle sent her birthday wishes at the time, but Jiang Laien didn not, everyone began to discuss whether the relationship between the two of them was really blurred, and whether it was all a show before. After all, every time one of Jiang Laien¡¯s friends¡¯ birthday popped up, Jiang Laien would send her blessings within an hour after midnight.


    In fact, Jiang Laien was rushing there in a car at that time, and then fell asleep because she was too tired. When she arrived, she met the person herself. Who cared about playing Weibo?¡±


    ¡°A certain netizen said that Goddess Jiang must have seen White Lotus Ye¡¯s face and knew that White Lotus Ye wanted to hug her thighs, so she didn¡¯t want to play with her anymore. They started to celebrate with the rest of the world,¡± Ye Kehuan held Jiang Laien, swiping Weibo with one hand, then smiled, ¡°Goddess Jiang, what do you think?¡±


    ¡°I have really seen your true face,¡± Jiang Laien glanced at her and poked her forehead, ¡°shameless, nasty. Her mind is full of harmful garbage.¡±


    Ye Kehuan stared at her: ¡°Then why do you still love to play with me so much?¡±


    ¡°Huh.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head to the side.


    After a while, Jiang Laien said again: ¡°Didn¡¯t you take a picture of the cake? Send the picture to me, let¡¯s post it together.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she sent the pictures of the cake that she had taken before to Jiang Laien¡¯s WeChat.


    After receiving the photo, Jiang Laien was stunned. How could Ye Kehuan make a cake so ugly and so muddy? Obviously it just stayed there quietly, and it looked pretty good, so why did it feel so earthy when she pictured it? Oh God¡­ If you travel with her or something in the future, you must not let her take any pictures of you.


    After spitting in her heart, Jiang Laien picked two photos that barely looked passable and adjusted their filter, and then posted on Weibo: ¡°I will finally catch up. Happy birthday @ActorYeKehuan, hope you are magnanimous in your new year¡¯s journey, stay happy and healthy!¡±


    After sending it out, as soon as Jiang Laien refreshed, she saw Ye Kehuan had also posted. There was a set of ugly nine-square grids without filters. The picture had all kinds of strange angles, and there were a lot of blurs.


    ¡°This cake is so beautiful.¡± Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t realize that her lover was cursing her in the depths of her heart at that moment, her eyes crooked like a moon with a smile.


    As soon as the Weibo of the two people were posted, there were comments immediately.


    Netizens who eat melons: ¡°Wow, the rumors should finally stop? Did Jiang Laien personally buy a cake to give to Ye Kehuan? Wait, isn¡¯t it said that Ye Kehuan is now filming in another place? Jiang Laien went there in person?¡±


    Internet keyboard detectives: ¡°It¡¯s just some hype, isn¡¯t it just a picture of a cake? Just take a picture. I think it should be because they saw some netizens who identified them as plastic sisters, so they took a picture randomly, then sent it out together. Why not just come out and admit it? This year¡¯s netizens are very kind.¡±


    Disappointed netizens: ¡°I really liked Jiang Laien before, but how could she be so good with Ye Kehuan? I can only say goodbye.¡±


    Reasonable passersby: ¡°Some people are quite drunk, making it seem like they know everything. If the relationship between others is good, these monsters show up from nowhere to make stupid remarks.¡±


    CP followers: ¡°Hey, it¡¯s so sweet! I¡¯ll send more cakes! My CP is really true!¡±


    ¡­


    Seeing those things, Ye Kehuan let out a sigh, then suddenly turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    ¡°What are you apologizing for?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    ¡°Because of my relationship, you also¡­ how to put it, before I came out, you have always been an untainted person, but now¡­¡±


    ¡°Do you care what they sat? Do you think I care about them?¡± Jiang Laien interrupted her.


    Ye Kehuan lowered her head: ¡°I just feel tired for you, so I feel sorry for you.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I don¡¯t care,¡± Jiang Laien looked at her motionlessly with clear eyes, ¡°I only care about you.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan was stunned for a while, and then suddenly she hugged her tightly and rubbed her head: ¡°Laien, you are so good, so good!¡±


    ¡°Okay, don¡¯t shame me bald¡­¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I know a doctor who treats baldness!¡±


    ¡­


    The next day.


    When Ye Kehuan got up and was about to go to the set, Jiang Laien hadn¡¯t woken up yet. It was probably because the running around was too hard the night before, and she slept too late, so she was sleeping quite soundly at the moment.


    Ye Kehuan lay on her side and looked at her for a long time, pulled the quilt up, and covered her tightly, then looked at her eyebrows motionlessly. It was said that a good partner would fill one¡¯s life with sunshine, and everything would become positive. Ye Kehuan felt that Jiang Laien had that kind of magic. Because of her, her acting skills had made a qualitative leap. Because of her, her mentality had become much more calm. Because of her, no matter how bad things were, she could still ignore them.


    In the end, Ye Kehuan leaned over and kissed her forehead lightly, then lifted the quilt and went to the bathroom quietly. In order to avoid waking Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan only opened the faucet a little bit, and rinsed gently under a wisp of water.


    After that, Ye Kehuan quietly changed her clothes and shoes, and finally looked at Jiang Laien, who was sleeping on the bed, before turning around and walking out of the room, gently closing the door.


    The temperature was still extremely low that day, but Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t feel cold at all. When she walked out of the hotel, Ye Kehuan looked up at the dark blue sky, stretched out her arms and closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and put her hands in her pockets. She only felt that this cold season was not that annoying.


    Along the way, Ye Kehuan and Chao Mingqing looked at everything around them as they walked. They kept feeling that what they saw was pleasing to the eye. Why? Probably because she was in love. She was a person in love who thought, no matter what the outside world was, her world would always be in spring.


    Upon arriving at the set, Ye Kehuan started modeling without stopping. She didn¡¯t have many scenes. It was estimated that half of her filming would be completed in those few days.


    After filming a scene, Ye Kehuan walked to the director behind the monitor and watched the replay. She was quite satisfied with her performance. The Wu Qiyun she created was nearly flesh-and-blood. She interpreted the feeling of being casual on the surface but heavy in the heart. The director was also very satisfied. He always laughed and said, ¡°What happened before? I actually found this treasure.¡±


    Ye Kehuan and the director were talking when there was an exclamation in the distance. At the same time, Chao Mingqing suddenly pulled on the corner of Ye Kehuan¡¯s clothes: ¡°Sister Huan, is that Sister Laien?¡±


    Ye Kehuan immediately turned her head and saw Jiang Laien, wearing a big gray padded jacket, walking towards her, stopping from time to time to say hello to the people who ran over to look for her, and then continued to move towards her. Jiang Laien walked there, yawning as she walked.


    Ye Kehuan saw her and ran towards her immediately.


    After Jiang Laien realized that the road ahead was blocked, she raised her head and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Kehuan.¡±


    Why did you run over without saying a word? You¡¯re still yawning, did you even wake up?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded with sleepy eyes.


    ¡°Then why don¡¯t you continue to sleep?¡± Ye Kehuan was really a little bit dumbfounded. Seeing her walking like that, she would have thought it was an evil spirit if she didn¡¯t know her.


    ¡°I just want to stay where you are.¡± Jiang Laien looked at her baffledly.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned for a second, then laughed: ¡°Really, have you eaten breakfast?¡±


    ¡°No.¡± Jiang Laien answered honestly.


    ¡°Then, wait a minute,¡± Ye Kehuan turned around and trotted aside, took a paper bag of props that she used for filming, and quickly walked back to Jiang Laien, and handed it to her, ¡°Eat this. This is today¡¯s fresh bread. I just used it for filming. It wasn¡¯t touched by anyone. It¡¯s not dirty.¡±


    ¡°Oh, good.¡± After holding the bag of props with food, the confused Jiang Laien opened the mouth of the bag and finally took out a croissant and took a bite.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go over there and sit down to eat.¡± Jiang Laien, who was sleepy and confused, looked like a child. Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but smile, then pointed to a stool not far away, and the two of them walked there together.


    The people around who originally thought Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were just hype were also a little dazed at that moment. Judging from the interaction between the two, it didn¡¯t look like they were pretending; they had to have a good sense of real affection to show such an effect.


    If Jiang Laien came to the set to meet others, and then Ye Kehuan ran up to show courtesy or something, it could be said to be fake. But Jiang Laien made a special trip to visit Ye Kehuan. In that way, the reverse post could not be established. Suddenly, everyone suffered a particularly big shock. But Qin Keyin stood at a distance and looked at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, and then looked at the gossiping people next to her. In the end, she did not participate in those gossips. She just stretched out her hand and stroked her arm and turned to the dressing room.


    The role of Wu Qiyun was quickly digested by Ye Kehuan, and Qin Keyin was also quite capable, so the shooting was fast. In less than a week, she finished all the scenes that the director originally planned to shoot. In order not to waste time, the director adjusted some scenes originally scheduled for the next filming and continued filming.


    After the filming was over, Ye Kehuan and Jian Laien rushed to sign the contract with the mom variety show. After everything was done, they returned to Chongyuan City to continue shooting ¡°Black Bites¡±.


    At that time, the plot of ¡°Black Bites¡± had completely heated up, and various action scenes had been arranged. After all, the behind-the-scenes boss in it was not a vegetarian, and was always trying to harm Su He and Lu Xun, even attacking violently. Fortunately, Qi Luo was a ghost, who could keenly see many things that ordinary people couldn¡¯t, which helped Su He and Lu Xun escape many dangers.


    If the previous filming work was very tiring, then the current filming work was very hard. Few scenes did not mean that as long as they had good acting skills, they could shoot them all at once. It depended on physical strength and so on. As a result, the shooting speed was also significantly reduced.


    Ye Kehuan and Zhang Haotian had the most difficult task, because they had to run frequently during the shooting and fight with the assassins sent by the boss behind the scenes. They would often have minor injuries and knocks after shooting for a day. It was more common to encounter something. All kinds of plasters barely had a chance to be taken off, making them look like dead fish when resting, but once the shooting started, the dead fish turned over and entered the zone instantly. Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that she was really a wizard.


    Fortunately, with the arrival of spring, although the weather was still very cold, it was not as terrible as the midwinter, and it would not be too sad when filming.


    After more than a month passed, the filming of ¡°Black Bites¡± was nearing the end, and the plot was almost over. Behind the scenes, the boss was captured by Lu Xun, played by Zhang Haotian, and gave all the victims an explanation. Su Ye, played by Ye Kehuan, was freed from public opinion.


    In Jiang Laien¡¯s last scene, she was no longer in a female ghost costume. Just after the judge convicted the boss behind the scenes, Su He walked out of the court and returned home and wanted to talk to Qi Luo, only to find that Qi Luo had regained the appearance she had right before her death. Her skin was no longer pale, her smile was bright, and she looked like a living person.


    When the scene was filmed, Ye Kehuan stood at the door and saw Jiang Laien inside, just like Su He was described in the script, dumbfounded. Because Jiang Laien looked so beautiful and sweet, she seemed to be shining. Such a person was extremely beautiful from any angle.


    After Ye Kehuan walked in, she smiled, squeezed her fists and raised them in the air, full of vitality: ¡°We made it!¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard the words, she smiled and nodded, showing white teeth: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°Why are you thanking me? Ah, great, we should go to celebrate. Where do you want to go? When it gets dark at night, I¡¯ll take you there!¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    Jiang Laien smiled and nodded vigorously: ¡°I want to play the crane, but I also want to see the river.¡±


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll take you there!¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    In that scene, the two people stood face to face and performed almost without any action, but relying on the interpretation of their eyes and facial expressions, plus those lines, they just turned that out. The feeling of understanding came out, very contagious.


    After that, as soon as the screen changed, they arrived at an arcade full of claw machines.


    Qi Luo could not play by herself, after all others couldn¡¯t see her. If she played, the machine would automatically grab the doll or something, which would scare people. Therefore, Su He coined the whole process, and then held Qi Luo¡¯s hand to grab the doll.


    After Ye Kehuan put in the coin, put her hand on Jiang Laien¡¯s hand, and turned her head and smiled and looked at her, she suddenly remembered when they were in school. At that time, they would often catch dolls, but Jiang Laien often couldn¡¯t catch them. Even if she was angry and put a few hundred yuan into the machine, it was still useless. And she was a master of the claw game, so she would often catch whatever Jiang Laien wanted and send her off.


    ¡°Which one do you want?¡± Ye Kehuan looked around that time and asked in a low voice.


    ¡°The blue one is very cute.¡± Jiang Laien pointed to a blue mouse in the claw machine.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head, took Jiang Laien¡¯s hand, and started to grab it. Because the grip of the machine had been debugged by the crew, it was much easier to grab than ordinary machines.


    One, two, three, four, five. In an instant, the two grabbed a large pile, put them in a bag which Su He carried, and then walked slowly on the street together, chatting as they walked. Qi Luo told Su He many stories about her childhood, saying that when she was a child, marshmallows were what she wanted most, so Su He went to the supermarket to buy marshmallows for her. Su He also told a lot of her own stories.


    Finally, the two reached the riverside together.


    In the spring, the riverside of Chongyuan was still cold and windy, causing an icy itch, and goosebumps on the body.


    After Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan stood on the edge of the river together, Jiang Laien looked at the river in front of her: ¡°I have always had a wish before, that is, to go to see the sea with the person I like most. Unfortunately, I still have. I never found the one I liked, and I died.¡±


    Ye Kehuan held the bag of dolls, turned her head and looked at her motionlessly.


    ¡°But¡­¡± Jiang Laien said then, laughed, and looked at Ye Kehuan, ¡°I met you, the only one in my life who treated me sincerely, my best friend. It¡¯s great. Since there is no sea, we can watch the river together.¡±


    For a while, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t tell whether it was the script or reality. Perhaps Jiang Laien¡¯s smile was too contagious, and her performance was too amazing. At that moment, the tip of Ye Kehuan¡¯s nose was slightly sour.


    ¡°It¡¯s great, I also think it¡¯s great to meet you.¡± Ye Kehuan gazed forward with a smile, her smile becoming extraordinarily soft.


    ¡°Su He, I still have something to tell you.¡± Then Jiang Laien spoke softly again.


    ¡°Well, let¡¯s talk about it, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Ye Kehuan let out a sigh, and turned her head to look at her carelessly.


    ¡°I¡¯m leaving.¡± Jiang Laien looked down.


    ¡°Where to?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s smile was stagnant.


    ¡°My wish is over, it¡¯s time to leave this world and go where I should have been.¡± Jiang Laien looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan gazed at her, opened her mouth, and rubbed her nose with her hands. The bridge of her nose suddenly became sore. Finally, she dropped her hand into her trouser pocket and looked at her with red eyes, ¡°So fast?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Okay,¡± Ye Kehuan held back for a while, then let out a sigh of laughter, ¡°Okay, then you¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at the river, gulped, and nodded her head unconsciously: ¡°I will miss you.¡±


    ¡°If there is fate in the next life, I will come to you.¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien smiled again.


    Ye Kehuan just nodded and sniffled, but didn¡¯t speak.


    ¡°Then, I¡¯m leaving.¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was soft.


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Finally, Ye Kehuan nodded, but kept looking at the river.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan turned her head slowly when she heard that there was no movement next to her. At that time, there was no one beside her. Ye Kehuan was stunned, looked around, then looked down the railing, calling Qi Luo¡¯s name, looking for her trace. But in the end, nothing was gained. Ye Kehuan looked down at the bag of dolls she was carrying, and said to herself: ¡°Since you like dolls so much, at least take one with you¡­ What a fool.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan wiped away the tears that had fallen from the corner of her eyes, and then walked forward with the dolls in her arms.


    The shot was cut from close-up to mid-range, then to distant view, and finally the night sky of the city in the end.


    At the end of the shooting, everyone applauded. Ye Kehuan still walked forward, until someone stopped her, then she came back to her senses, tightened her grip on the bag in her hand, and walked towards Chen Fei. At the same time, everyone in the crew, including Jiang Laien, gave her a thumbs up and praised her.


    Ye Kehuan collected herself, took a deep breath, and bowed to everyone as she walked: ¡±Thanks to the director, the assistant director, the staff¡­¡±


    ¡°Awesome! Ye Kehuan, I really didn¡¯t misunderstand you!¡± Chen Fei patted her on the shoulder with invincible emotion. The strength of his palm was really strong, not gentle at all, and Ye Kehuan¡¯s body staggered.


    ¡°Thank you for the compliment, you have guided me well.¡± Although Ye Kehuan returned to reality, the smile on her face was still somewhat reluctant, and her emotions were still immersed in the role.


    Then, Chen Fei looked at Jiang Laien again: ¡°Laien, your vision is really good. If you hadn¡¯t recommended me to let Kehuan come to audition, I would have lost a lot.¡±


    Jiang Laien was stunned, never expecting that she would be cued so suddenly, and then smiled awkwardly and politely: ¡°The main reason is that she is indeed a piece of gold.¡±


    Ye Kehuan walked over, looked at Chen Fei, and then at Jiang Laien. She was dumbfounded. It turned out that the reason why she got the audition for the role of Su He was because of Jiang Laien? She thought, why would Chen Fei come to find her for no reason? Suddenly, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know what to say. It turned out that Jiang Laien had done so much for her behind her back.


    ¡°Okay, okay, let¡¯s call it a day!¡± At that moment, Chen Fei waved his hand, and then began to pack things up with the staff.


    After more than two or three months, the movie finally came to an end. Ye Kehuan felt like she had had a dream, and was left a little bit muddled.


    After the filming was over, the director asked everyone to go to a nearby hotel to have a meal. In an instant, everyone responded in full, and their voices were louder than ever.


    After a few months of exhaustion, everyone could finally relax. During the meal of chatting, chatting, drinking, and drinking, all of them turned ruddy, and the exhaustion that had previously clung to their expressions disappeared.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien didn¡¯t drink, so they just drank juice and chatted with everyone. Fortunately, Cheng Yan had already left the crew because of her role, so Ye Kehuan and the others didn¡¯t have to meet her, so the evening wasn¡¯t ruined.


    During the meal, Chen Fei suddenly put down his chopsticks, then pointed at Ye Kehuan and faced everyone: ¡°You, Ye Kehuan, are you taking it now?!¡±


    ¡°Serve, take!¡± everyone said in unison. 1


    Ye Kehuan was completely stunned.


    Chen Fei picked up his chopsticks and clamped a slice of beef with soy sauce and put it it, ¡°That is, how could this old master Chen¡¯s eyes go blind? Even if it was a little bit, they all questioned me one by one. When the movie comes out, they will know that they are wrong. How outrageous.¡±


    Speaking of this, Chen Fei looked at Ye Kehuan again: ¡°Comrade Ye Kehuan, no matter what others say, please walk forward without fear!¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, she was moved suddenly, and nodded vigorously: ¡°I definitely will, thank you director!¡±


    Chen Fei waved his hand, and then drank with the others.


    After three rounds of wine, the crowd was already drunk with warm faces and ears. After eating, it was almost midnight. One by one, they left the table drunkenly.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien returned to the bed and breakfast, they began to pack their things non-stop, because they would take a flight back to Morikawa early the next morning to have a meeting with the variety show group.


    After all, the show was about to start filming, and although the mothers didn¡¯t have to come to the meeting specially, the children must be there. Although there would be no script for the show, there were still some precautions to be mentioned, such as how to place advertisements, such as where to travel, and so on. Originally, the program group was not in Morikawa, but considering that four of the guests were in Morikawa, they came by themselves.


    And this meeting was scheduled for two o¡¯clock in the afternoon the next day, which was quite makeable. Fortunately, other than the show, Ye Kehuan hadn¡¯t had any jobs recently, just a bunch of clothing endorsements and photos to take. Speaking of which, she was also a spokesperson now. Although it was not a big brand, it was still a big improvement compared to the past.


    After finishing everything, Ye Kehuan went to Jiang Laien¡¯s room again. She found that she really wanted to stick to Jiang Laien whenever she had a chance, and she didn¡¯t want to mess even a second.


    Lying on the bed, Jiang Laien saw Ye Kehuan staring at the ceiling, so she pulled her arm: ¡°What¡¯s wrong? It feels like you¡¯ve been a little unhappy since we finished the movie.¡±


    ¡°Nothing, just a little scared.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head.


    ¡°Huh? Are you afraid of the meeting?¡± Jiang Laien continued to ask.


    Ye Kehuan sighed and turned her head to look at her: ¡°It was the last scene of the day. I was suddenly a little scared that you would leave someday. No matter what, I am sure that there is no way I would accept that.¡±


    Jiang Laien heard that and waved her hand: ¡°Little fool, what are you thinking about? That¡¯s just a movie. Su He is Su He, and you are you. Qi Luo is Qi Luo, and I am me.¡±


    Ye Kehuan listened and nodded: ¡°I know, I¡¯m just¡­ worried¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her, and finally said softly: ¡°I suddenly left that year, which cast a big shadow on you. I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, for fear that she would fall into self-blame, she immediately shook her head: ¡°No no, was just caught up in the show just now, so I was talking a lot of gibberish, don¡¯t take it to your heart. I know you won¡¯t leave me, really.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled when she heard those words, nodded, and put her head on Ye Kehuan¡¯s arm: ¡°Then stop thinking about it, okay, go to sleep. It¡¯s too late.¡±


    ¡°Well, good night.¡± Ye Kehuan kissed the center of her eyebrows.


    ¡°Good night.¡± Jiang Laien kissed her lips.


    The next day.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien woke up, they rushed to the airport early in the morning with their luggage and assistants.


    When they arrived at Morikawa, it happened to be noon. Because they didn¡¯t have a public itinerary, no one came to welcome them from the plane, and it was pretty chill.


    The two went back to put down their things in the small villa, and after another meal, seeing that their time was almost up, they got up and went to the meeting.


    The meeting place was in the meeting room of the director¡¯s company of the program group.


    There were five stars participating in the show including Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, who were equivalent to five groups of families. The other three were Cheng Yan, Yu Mei, and Xiao Mingguang.


    Cheng Yan was a new generation flower, and Ye Kehuan¡¯s enemy, so nothing more to say.


    Yu Mei was a small flower who was once popular but soon faded. Her appearance was outstanding among ordinary people, and medium in the entertainment circle. She had a thin body and was about the same age as Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien. She and Cheng Yan were friends, and they played a lot. Ye Kehuan heard that her family was rich and bought all kinds of resources for her, but the mud couldn¡¯t support a wall, and soon withered.


    After she was no longer popular, Yu Mei began to form a group with Cheng Yan to set up Bai Fumei. Their Weibo was full of eating, drinking, and having fun every day. There were a lot of photos of cruise ships and private jets on it.


    As for Xiao Mingguang, he was the only male there. He was also a newcomer with a creamy taste and a good-looking appearance. In his first two years since entering the entertainment industry, he had been tepid because of his introverted personality. That was until the year before, when he had a drama that suddenly became popular, and his popularity rose rapidly. He was especially popular with passersby, so his company was currently pushing him.


    When Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien walked in, they saw that three people were already sitting inside.


    After seeing Jiang Laien, the people inside all greeted her with enthusiasm and initiative, but for Ye Kehuan, only Xiao Mingguang appeared enthusiastic.


    When Cheng Yan looked at Ye Kehuan, she couldn¡¯t help laughing. Dressed like that, shabby. She didn¡¯t see her wearing that watch anymore. It must be a fake, right? It was put away after being dismantled? What a shame. Looking at her like this, her mother shouldn¡¯t be much better; maybe she was also in rags.


    Thinking of that, Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help but want to laugh. It was so pitiful. Thinking that she had been arguing with such a poor worm, Cheng Yan suddenly felt that it was not worth it. Raising her hand and pulling down the new Hermes bag in her hand, Cheng Yan took out a small mirror from it and sorted her hair.


    After a while, people from the program group walked it, so everyone started the meeting.


    When the meeting was midway though, the program team stated that the filming of the program started when everyone was at home and they and their mother were packing their luggage, so the program team had to collect the home address of each parent¡¯s current residence. When ye Kehuan heard that, her body shook instantly.


    Ye Kehuan felt that she was about to die from a myocardial infarction. Her home, was her home a place for people?! She really didn¡¯t want others to focus on her family background, only hoping that everyone could pay attention to her work and acting skills. In that way, her little dream was going to be completely finished. But the contract was signed so she could work with Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Miss Ye Kehuan?¡± At that moment, the producer called her.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan sorted her thoughts immediately and looked up, ¡°Yes!¡±


    ¡°Do you have any questions? You don¡¯t seem to look right.¡± The producer continued to ask intimately.


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°No, I don¡¯t have any questions.¡±


    Seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s appearance, Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help wondering: Her family must be in tatters and be very shameful, or why would she be so scared? It seemed that there had been rumors that Ye Kehuan¡¯s family was so poor that she lived in an earthen house. She couldn¡¯t read books when she was in school. After that, she ran to spread her legs because of a lack of money. Because it was ridiculous, not many people believed it. But now Cheng Yan felt that it might be possible.


    After being pressed down by Ye Kehuan, it was finally her chance to turn over.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s continue talking about it.¡± The show producer nodded and continued the meeting.


    However, Ye Kehuan was unfocused until the meeting ended.


    After walking out, Ye Kehuan instantly hugged her head--


    OMG, my mother¡¯s grandiose home, that grandiose garden, that grandiose fountain, that grand sculpture, that grandiose build, that grandiose crystal lamp, that grandiose decoration, that grandiose elevator¡­ Kill me!


    The author has something to say: What about people on the third of every day?


    Will it be bubbling if I sat that every day?


    Lie to me T_T


    TL/N


    1 - Not a single clue what they are saying here.

 CH 56

    Ye Kehuan could imagine what people would pay attention to once the show was broadcast.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Sitting in the back of the car, Jiang Laien saw Ye Kehuan¡¯s expression was weird, so she turned to ask her.


    ¡°It¡¯s nothing.¡± Ye Kehuan finished speaking and smiled reluctantly. At that moment, her phone rang suddenly, so she picked it up and saw that it was her mother who was calling. Without pause, Ye Kehuan held the phone to her ear, ¡°Hello?¡±


    ¡°Baby, is the meeting finished?!¡± Mama Ye¡¯s voice came from the phone immediately.


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked her forehead, saying a thousand words in her heart, but suddenly she didn¡¯t know how to say them: ¡°Yes, what¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°Jimmy, this black tea is too sweet. Be careful next time.¡± On the other side of the phone, Mama Ye turned to talk with Ye Kehuan after talking to others. ¡°Isn¡¯t that show going on this Friday? It¡¯s Monday, when are you coming back?¡±


    Ye Kehuan pushed her hair back: ¡°Thursday. There will be work tomorrow and the day after.¡±


    After hearing that, Mama Ye laughed twice: ¡°Okay, mom is waiting for you, oh yes, what do you want to eat? Mom will make it for you herself!¡±


    Ye Kehuan closed her eyes: ¡°I think it will be safer for Chef Yi to do this kind of thing. He is a professional after all. He will not blow up the kitchen, and at the same time, he can cook a large table of delicious dishes¡­¡±


    ¡°Okay, then don¡¯t blame me for not letting you taste the taste of maternal love.¡± Mama Ye smiled.


    Ye Kehuan rubbed her temples: ¡°In terms of the taste of mother¡¯s love and the safety of life, I choose the latter.¡±


    Her mother, Ye Ling, was a magical woman who could only make a few desserts such as sandwiches and cupcakes, but she would never make anything else. And the reason why she would do that was because she wanted to chase after Ye Kehuan¡¯s dad, Ye Bingquan. Later, they got married, and she didn¡¯t do much. By now, she had probably forgotten how to do it.


    ¡°Well, what a ruthless daughter, then I¡¯ll wait for you. See you on Thursday. The hair stylist has arrived.¡±


    ¡°Okay, goodbye.¡± After hanging up, Ye Kehuan let out a long sigh.


    Why did she not like exposing her family background? Apart from not wanting to let others focus on things other than her acting skills, it was also related to some of the encounters she had as a child.


    Because of her family background, she always had people spreading rumors about her since elementary school, and she couldn¡¯t make true friends. Many people who approached her were actually for her money. Unpleasant things happened several times, and after changing a few schools, she began to hide herself habitually. When attending high school, apart from Chen Lulu and Jiang Laien, almost no one in the class knew about her family.


    But now, she was going to be exposed. Even if she didn¡¯t want to be exposed, her mother would be.


    Netizens also exploded about the fact that Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien, Cheng Yan, Yu Mei, and Xiao Mingguang were all going to participate in the travel show. They all knew that Cheng Yan and Ye Kehuan were at odds, and they all knew that Cheng Yan and Yu Bei were both properly Bai Fumei. Needless to say more about Jiang Laien--it could really be said to be full of potential highlights.


    Seeing that the public¡¯s attention was so high, Cheng Yan felt so happy in her heart, as if she could smell the opportunity to turn over.


    For a long time, her family status had been a point of concern for netizens. After seeing the various luxury goods and luxury travel logs she exposed, they all developed a considerable curiosity about her life and wished to stand up and look at how rich people lived.


    But now, her dad had bought her a new European-style villa of more than 1,000 square meters, which was very compelling inside and out. If it was broadcasted, it would definitely attract a lot of people¡¯s attention. After all, it was every modern person¡¯s dream to be filthy rich. And when Ye Kehuan was compared to her, she would probably be humbled down to the center of the earth. After thinking about that, Cheng Yan laughed.


    Because this house was located in an expensive area, and it was larger than the place where her parents lived, Cheng Yan decided to let her mother come to her villa to record this time. After all, that looked more compelling and shocking.


    After finishing their work, Cheng Yan and Yu Mei met again in a luxury store to buy the next season¡¯s products and prepare to wear them on the trip. After all, this kind of variety show opportunity was rare, and she had to make herself look beautiful, rich, and charming.


    In the blink of an eye, Thursday finally arrived.


    Early in the morning, after Ye Kehuan woke up, she took the watch her mother had given her on the bedside table and squinted her eyes, only to see that it was eight o¡¯clock in the morning. Putting down the watch, Ye Kehuan lay back in her original position, stretched out her hand to the side, but found that there was no one on her side.


    With a frown on her face and eyebrows, Ye Kehuan turned her head: ¡°Laien?¡±


    She yelled twice, but didn¡¯t see her. Thinking that she should have gotten up, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t want to sleep anymore, so she turned over and got out of bed and entered the bathroom, went downstairs, and followed some small movements to the kitchen.


    In the bright and spacious beige-toned kitchen, the layout was simple and generous, and there were verdant plants on the island, which was quite refreshing. At that time, Jiang Laien, who was wearing a loose silk rose-gold shirt, was cutting something on the counter. There seemed to be some soup in a small pot next to her, which was boiling at that moment.


    The drape of the shirt was very good, covering her body and making her legs look long, with an elegant taste everywhere.


    Ye Kehuan leaned at the door, tilted her head to look at her, and smiled for a while, then left the door frame, walked forward quietly, and reached out to touch her waist: ¡°What are you making?¡±


    A lazy, slightly nasal voice came from behind her. Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but accidentally cut a small tomato in half while holding a kitchen knife. Then she turned her head slightly: ¡°Borscht, fried yellow croaker, and vegetable and fruit salad.¡±


    ¡°These are all my favorites, are you cooking for my appetite specially?¡± Ye Kehuan put her chin on her shoulder.


    ¡°Yeah, so what? I¡¯m quite virtuous, aren¡¯t I?¡± Jiang Laien put down the knife, picked up a small piece of tomato, and fed it to Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips.


    After Ye Kehuan ate the small tomato, she smiled: ¡°Why have you started to study cooking recently?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard her words, she turned off the fire below the soup pot, turned around, and folded her arms around her neck; her eyes were like water, but her red lips were like fire: ¡°Because if you want to hold someone¡¯s heart,  you must first hold their stomach.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily, tightened the hand placed on her waist, lowered her eyes, turned her head, and gently touched her full and soft lips: ¡°However, nothing is enough to hold my heart.¡±


    Jiang Laien gulped, clasping her hands behind her neck: ¡°Really?¡±


    Ye Kehuan did not speak, but kissed her again, and at the same time, Jiang Laien responded to her. Before she knew it, Ye Kehuan¡¯s breathing was no longer steady and restful, but at that moment, her wrist was held.


    ¡°There isn¡¯t enough time. We have to hurry up and eat breakfast, and then it¡¯s time to take a flight home.¡± Jiang Laien whispered.


    ¡°So you mean, if you have enough time, you are willing to do something with me?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her hand, put it to her lips to kiss, and looked up at her again.


    ¡°Take this and block your mouth!¡± Jiang Laien was annoyed by her shameless appearance, instantly picked up the fried small yellow croaker and omelette, stuffed it in her hand, and turned around to open the lid and serve the borscht.


    Ye Kehuan smiled while holding the plate of yellow croaker, then looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s back, only thinking that she was unbearably cute.


    After eating breakfast, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien changed their clothes and rushed to the airport with their luggage, ready to go home. After sleeping the whole way, when she arrived at Fenghuang Qiuyun Airport, it was exactly 2:30 in the afternoon. After Ye Kehuan took her luggage and walked out of the VIP channel, she saw her driver, Old Qin.


    Old Qin wore a small black suit and combed his hair meticulously. After seeing Ye Kehuan, he was about to bow but was stopped by Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan looked around, and then under the leadership of Old Qin, walked warily into the parking building, stood next to a Bentley car and put in her luggage.


    Old Qin opened the car door, so Ye Kehuan sat down, and the car door was closed. She reached out and put her hand on her forehead, closing her eyes to do some mental reconstruction for herself.


    Afterwards, Old Qin also sat in the car, and drove the car out in the next second. After about an hour, the car left the hustle and bustle of the city and drove to an old logging road surrounded by green trees. Eventually, it slowed down at a white gate, and after the gate was opened, it drove inside. After passing a small garden with white sculptures and fountains, they continued to move inside, and finally reached the front of a huge building before stopping.


    Before Old Qin came to open the door, Ye Kehuan got out of the car first, and saw six servants standing on the left and right sides of the door, and a housekeeper in a suit and leather shoes standing in the middle. At that time, everyone was looking at her with a smile and welcomed her home.


    Grandiose, Ye Kehuan thought secretly in her heart. She glanced at the meticulously manicured lawns on both sides of the house. She let out a sigh, and then walked up the stops with the driver who helped her carry her suitcase and walked in the door.


    The next day.


    The program team was divided into five groups and went to the homes of the five groups of families.


    At eight o¡¯clock in the morning, one of the groups drove to Cheng Yan¡¯s home.


    They saw it was a two-story villa with a small garden. It seemed to occupy a large area. The small garden was also very beautiful and delicate. There were green plants climbing up the fence, and the lawn was simple and generous.


    ¡°What a great¡­¡± The program crew couldn¡¯t help but let out heartfelt sighs, then walked to the door of Cheng Yan¡¯s house and reached out to knock on the door.


    After a moment, the door was opened by an auntie, and then Cheng Yan in a white dress appeared in front of their eyes.


    ¡°Hello, please come in.¡± Cheng Yan said with a smile after seeing the camera, pushing her hair behind her ears.


    ¡°Hello, hello.¡± After the program crew got their permission, they walked in carrying the camera. After entering, they saw a magnificent area in the living room, and every inch of the European classical decoration oozed wealth.


    Cheng Yan saw that the people in the program group were dumbfounded and was in a good mood, so she turned her head and looked at the housekeeper: ¡°Auntie Xu, let¡¯s prepare some biscuits and water for everyone.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± After Auntie Xu responded, she turned and walked towards the kitchen on the side.


    ¡°No need, we are not thirsty.¡± The people in the program group smiled and waved their hands.


    ¡°All right, I don¡¯t have makeup yet. I¡¯ll go up and put on some makeup first.¡± Cheng Yan smiled. In fact, she had already put on the bare minimum makeup to make herself look presentable.


    ¡°Okay.¡± The program crew nodded, and then followed her upstairs, not forgetting to look back and show the big house from time to time.


    ¡°My mother is watering the flowers in the backyard and will come in a while.¡± Cheng Yan opened her bedroom door while she was talking, turned her head and smiled, walked in, sat in front of the dressing table, and started putting on makeup.


    When putting on makeup, Cheng Yan deliberately opened several boxes of lipsticks, and chose the color number to use that day. Of course, choosing which number was false, she just wanted to show off. Those lipsticks were all expensive imported red with full color numbers. When the young lady from the crew saw it, she couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to cover her mouth, barely resisting yelling ¡°OMG¡±. At the same time, the cinematographer followed and took close-ups on the cosmetics. All the TF, Armani, Chanel, what ordinary girls could only think of, were all there, and many more. Ordinary people might only have one, but she had rows.


    Cheng Yan smiled, then got up again: ¡°Sorry, I came back too late last night, and I haven¡¯t had much time to clean up yet.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s early.¡± The faces of the crew hurriedly filled with smiles.


    Cheng Yan tucked her hair, and then walked into her closet.


    After the closet was opened, everyone was stunned again. The closet was almost larger than many people¡¯s bedrooms. The clothes, bags, shoes, and accessories inside were arranged in zones, neatly organized, and everything was very expensive, belonging to the high-end price even among luxury goods.


    ¡°Wow, isn¡¯t this bag the LV limited edition bag that was snatched up a while ago?¡± The girl from the crew asked when she looked at a bag on the shelf.


    ¡°Yes, but I was a little tired after carrying it a few times, so I left it there. It¡¯s a bit dusty, please don¡¯t laugh.¡± Cheng Yan smiled, took off a Prada dress from a rack, then held it up to look at it. She had ordered several branded clothes, some of which were high-end customs.


    After finishing, Cheng Yan walked to the jewelry cabinet on one side, opened it, and took out a necklace worth millions of dollars. She stood in front of the mirror wearing Chanel clothes and posed. After that, she picked up some other jewels and continued to pose.


    In fact, her purpose was very simple: to make her valuables shine in front of the camera.


    It was undeniable that the effect Cheng Yan wanted was achieved. Seeing the room full of luxury goods, the crew was completely stunned.


    At the same time, on the other side, people from the program group were about to arrive at Ye Kehuan¡¯s house.


    ¡°What kind of place is this?¡± After the car drove a few turns, the crew couldn¡¯t help but mutter. They were not locals, and they were not familiar with the area at all.


    ¡°Hey, we are so unlucky, why did we come to shoot Ye Kehuan?¡± Anyway, they were still being paid, so they came out there without hesitation.


    ¡°Well said, what will Ye Kehuan¡¯s family look like? Suddenly, I¡¯ve become a little curious. Some online said that she was an invisible rich, and some said her family was too poor to eat the dirt. I don¡¯t know which one is credible, although I believe she is poor. Most people eat dirt.¡±


    ¡°Even if she is not so poor, she shouldn¡¯t be well-off. If she was rich, would she still need to be so desperate to stick to someone else¡¯s superiors that she would sell her body in exchange for resources¡­ Damn it!¡±


    As the people in the program group were chatting, seeing the place in front of them as the car stopped, they were suddenly dumbfounded.


    They saw a white gate in front of them, and could faintly see a huge garden inside, and behind the garden, a huge white European-style building stood upright. The building occupied too much area, and with its architectural style, if not because it had to be new, could pass as a relic.


    ¡°Fuck! Is this a castle?!¡± One person couldn¡¯t help but go boggle-eyed.


    ¡°Is it here? Ye Kehuan¡¯s house?¡± The camera operator couldn¡¯t help but ask a bespectacled girl who was in charge of the navigation.


    ¡°Yes, right¡­¡± The glasses girl was dumbfounded, ¡°I¡¯ll go ring the doorbell.¡±


    The next second, the glasses girl went to ring the doorbell, and then, a man¡¯s face appeared on a screen.


    ¡°Hello, may I ask, is this the Ye family?¡± Asked the girl.


    ¡°Yes, are you from the travel show?¡± The man always kept a perfect smile on his face.


    ¡°Yes.¡± The glasses girl nodded.


    ¡°Okay, please wait a moment.¡± After the man spoke, he hung up the video.


    Afterwards, the gate slowly opened. Seeing that, the glasses girl hurried back to the car: ¡°Let¡¯s go, it really is!¡±


    Everyone was dumbfounded, and then drove the car in. After entering, they only felt that they had come to some famous plaza. In the center stood a lifelike sculpture and fountain. The lawn was spread out from both sides of the road, and the flowers and plants were meticulously trimmed. Everyone in the car looked at those next to them, unsure of reality anymore.


    After a while, the car finally stopped in front of a huge building, and they saw a middle-aged man in a suit with slick hair and white gloves standing in the middle of the doorway, smiling at them.


    After the crew got off the car and ran up with the equipment, the glasses girl froze and said, ¡°Are you¡­ Mr. Ye?¡±


    Hearing this, the man smiled: ¡°No, I am the housekeeper of the Ye family. Please come with me, everyone.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± The girl licked her lower lip and walked in with everyone.


    As soon as the door was opened, they saw the entrance was a huge hall, the ceiling was horribly high, like a church, there were various famous paintings on the walls, and there were various art pieces shining under crystal lamps. All those seemed extraordinarily luxurious, but because the design contained a great sense of postmodernism, it didn¡¯t look ostentatious.


    What was more frightening was that there were still many servants within.


    Was this really Ye Kehuan¡¯s house? It looked too¡­ terrible here. This was no longer an ordinary rich person, right?! The program team looked around, and found it was impossible to measure the area of that hall with the naked eye. They only knew that the hall was also divided into several areas for different designs. There seemed to be an office-style reception room.


    The cinematographer paned his camera over everything without stopping.


    ¡°Excuse me, Miss Ye Kehuan, she¡­¡± After regaining consciousness, the crew tentatively asked the butler.


    ¡°Young Madam hasn¡¯t gotten up yet.¡± The butler answered with a smile.


    ¡°Young Madam?!¡± The program crew were confused again by such a title.


    ¡°Then, Mother Ye¡­¡±


    ¡°Madam is in the gym. Do you want me to take you there?¡± the butler smiled.


    ¡°Okay¡­¡± A person from the crew nodded, already wondering what to say.


    In the next second, the butler walked to the right, arrived at an elevator door, pressed the button, folded his hands in front of him, and stood straight until the elevator door opened, and walked in. Everyone in the crew also followed in.


    The glasses girl couldn¡¯t help pushing her glasses. What kind of situation was this, a handsome tall and handsome butler, a slender servant, a beautiful castle-like mansion, and even an elevator inside, this was Ye Kehuan, what was going on?!


    On the third floor, the elevator door opened. The butler glanced at the corridor and walked to the right. After passing four or five rooms, he turned and came to a spacious gym where he stood still.


    The gym looked very bright because of the huge floor-to-ceiling glass. They saw that Ye Ling was practicing pilates on a mat at the moment.


    Although Ye Ling was forty-eight years old, she was in a very good shape, without a trace of fat on her waist, and her muscles were perfectly smooth. At that time, she was wearing a ponytail and a gray sports vest with elastic fitness pants of the same color doing bending exercises.


    The crew was stunned again. Could this be Ye Kehuan¡¯s mother? She looked a bit too young, right?


    After watching the people from the program group for a while, the housekeeper walked through a pile of treadmills and other fitness equipment, and led them to Ye Ling in front of the mirror to stop: ¡°Madam, the program group members are here.¡±


    After hearing the butler¡¯s voice, Ye Ling stopped her movements instantly, got up from the ground, clapped her hands and looked at them: ¡°You came?¡±


    ¡°Yes. Mrs. Ye is beautiful.¡± The glasses girl looked at her face with light European and American makeup, as if she was barely over 30 years old, ¡°You look so young.¡±


    ¡°Thank you for the compliment.¡± Ye Ling smiled. She looked really young, to the point where every time she went out with Ye Kehuan, she was considered to be her older sister.


    At that time, the servant next to Ye Ling looked at Ye Ling again: ¡°Madam, do you want to wake up Young Madam now?¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll call her myself.¡± After Ye Ling finished speaking, she smiled, and then pulled the shawl off the bottle of the practice exercise, put it on her body, and walked out.


    After walking for a while, entering the elevator, and going down to the second floor, Ye Ling walked out, down the corridor for a while, and then finally stopped in front of a door. The people from the show group stood beside her, looking at each other. To be honest, they couldn¡¯t believe that this was Ye Kehuan¡¯s home until they saw Ye Kehuan herself.


    Boom, boom! Ye Ling called out after knocking on the door for a while, ¡°Baby, are you awake?¡±


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan, who was lying on a big bed in the room, frowned, turned over, and finally sat up. She chatted with Jiang Laien for too long the previous night, thinking that someone would wake her up today, and didn¡¯t set an alarm clock, so she ended up oversleeping accidentally.


    After stroking her messy hair, Ye Kehuan put on slippers, stood up from the bed, stretched her waist, and then took lazy steps, bypassing a glass coffee table, towards the door. Walking over and opening the door: ¡°I¡¯m awake, I¡¯m awake.¡±


    As soon as the door opened, not only her mother was standing at the door, but also a few strangers. Ye Kehuan looked at the camera and immediately understood that they were people from the program group.


    ¡°Hello, you came so early, thanks for your hard work.¡± Ye Kehuan was taken aback, so she scratched her hair, smiled, and bowed immediately.


    The crew were instantly stunned and bowed back to her in a panic: ¡°Hello! You¡¯re welcome, you¡¯re welcome, you¡¯re working hard, and you have to get up early in the morning to record the program.¡±


    ¡°What are you wearing?¡± At that moment, Ye Ling walked to Ye Kehuan, but stretched out her hand to pull on her collar, frowning.


    ¡°It¡¯s good quality and it¡¯s comfortable to wear.¡± Ye Kehuan folded her arms.


    ¡°Where is the nightdress I bought for you yesterday?¡± Ye Ling glanced at her. It was from a big brand.


    ¡°It¡¯s uncomfortable that the skirt will always slide up when you wear it to sleep.¡± Ye Kehuan frowned and replied.


    Ye Ling wanted to scold her very much, but she resisted it, instead pulling on her hair: ¡°Why do you sleep with your hair like this?¡±


    ¡°Hey, I¡¯ll go and wash it.¡± Ye Kehuan caressed her neck happily.


    However, Ye Ling immediately turned to look at the butler waiting at the door: ¡°Contact Mike.¡±


    ¡°Yes ma¡¯am,¡± The butler nodded, then took out his mobile phone like an AI and started to make the call, ¡°Hello, Master Mike, can you please come over now, our eldest lady needs a look. Okay.¡±


    The people in the crew were once again stunned. It seemed that this was the pattern of having a private stylist? Everyone gulped again.


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her hand and brush her hair. It was a mess, but wasn¡¯t it just ordinary black and straight? She could just wash it.


    Then Ye Ling continued to walk forward and entered Ye Kehuan¡¯s bed room: ¡°Have you packed all your clothes for the show?¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s bedroom was also quite large, and everything in it was quite luxurious.


    Ye Kehuan pointed to a large suitcase that hadn¡¯t been closed yet: ¡°There it is.¡±


    Ye Ling walked to Ye Kehuan¡¯s suitcase, squatted down, picked up a piece of clothing, and looked at it: ¡°Your clothes are not good-looking.¡±


    ¡°Well, I think they¡¯re fine. They¡¯re very versatile.¡± Ye Kehuan took the clothes from her hand and folded them, then threw them back into the suitcase.


    ¡°Ouch,¡± Ye Ling glanced at her disgustedly again, then stood aside and clapped her hands. So, a servant walked in from outside, pushing two rows of clothes, and stood still in front of Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°I bought these clothes according to your size. You can try them. If you look good, just pack them in your suitcase.¡± Ye Ling stretched out a Valentino coat and twisted, turning her head to look at her.


    ¡°I don¡¯t want them. Such needless exaggeration. I still like to buy them myself.¡± Ye Kehuan glanced at it and said stubbornly.


    The people from the crew finally understood that it wasn¡¯t that Ye Kehuan was able to wear big name clothing, but she didn¡¯t take big names seriously at all!


    ¡°It¡¯s so ostentatious, so beautiful,¡± Ye Ling fiddled with the clothes, ¡°As far as these clothes are concerned, just put on one piece and you can become the brightest star in the night sky.¡±


    ¡°I bring my own beauty, even a piece of linen can¡¯t stop my beauty.¡± Ye Kehuan pointed at her pajamas.


    ¡°I think you are just a piece of sackcloth.¡± In the end, Ye Ling let go.


    ¡°If I¡¯m sackcloth, then what are you?¡± Ye Kehuan replied with a yawn.


    Ye Ling laughed with anger, reached out, and slapped her arm: ¡°Your mouth is itchy, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Yes.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan leaned over and kissed her cheek: ¡°Okay, it stopped itching.¡±


    Seeing this, Ye Ling couldn¡¯t help but chuckle, then waved her hand: ¡°Okay, what do you like to wear?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was happy, and then pulled out a set of paired dresses, and showed them to Ye Ling: ¡°Mom, let¡¯s wear this, what do you think? It¡¯s rare to be on a variety show together. I specially asked my friend to help us design it¡­¡±


    Ye Ling glanced at the two sets of clothes, only to see the pinyin of both of their names embroidered on the top. She suddenly smiled, and patted her on the shoulder: ¡°Fine, what do you do with this kind of thing?¡±


    ¡°Then you¡¯re saying you want to wear it with me?¡± Ye Kehuan frowned.


    Ye Ling listened and took the clothes from her hand: ¡°Okay, I will wear them.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Ling turned around and walked out of Ye Kehuan¡¯s bedroom.


    The members of the crew suddenly laughed out of control when they saw the two people bickering with each other. Suddenly they felt that the way this mother and daughter got along was a little cute.


    After watching Ye Ling go out, Ye Kehuan turned around and looked at the clothes that Ye Ling had carefully selected for her. Finally, she breathed out a sigh of relief and took out some of the clothes from her suitcase, removing two stacks. Then she took a few pieces from the other clothes and put them inside.


    ¡°You¡¯re still going to wear them?¡± The glasses girl asked with a smile?


    Ye Kehuan stood up, looked at her, clapped her hands, and nodded: ¡°After all, it is her heart. She just wants me to look beautiful. So, it won¡¯t matter if I wear it.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan took her own paired dress, and pointed to her closet: ¡°I¡¯m going to change clothes. You can sit and rest for a while, this camera must be tiring to carry.¡±


    ¡°Okay, you go.¡± The girl hurriedly smiled.


    Seeing Ye Kehuan walking into the closet, the glasses girl and her colleagues stared with big eyes. They invariably reached out and patted their chests, then turned to look at Ye Kehuan¡¯s bedroom. That bedroom was even bigger than ordinary people¡¯s halls¡­


    After a while, finally, Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling both finished their styling, put on makeup that matched the casual dress, and then they wore the pair dresses together. They walked arm in arm with their luggage, got in the crew car, and headed to the airport.


    At two o¡¯clock in the afternoon, Ye Kehuan and Mama Ye arrived in Jingcheng, and then they drove straight to the villa book by the program team.


    After taking out their luggage, Ye Kehuan and Mama Ye walked to the door of the villa, took off their sunglasses, and reached out to press the doorbell.


    ¡°They¡¯re here.¡± Cheng Yan trolled over in the villa.


    The author has something to say: This can also lock¡­

 CH 57

    Hearing a ¡°click¡± sound, the door opened, and Cheng Yan appeared in front of her, making Ye Ling¡¯s eyebrows raise slightly.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling, Cheng Yan looked at them from top to bottom. To be honest, she was a little surprised. Could it be that the very young woman with a single ponytail in front of her was Ye Kehuan¡¯s mother? To be honest, she looked pretty good, and she felt like the type that could spark desires. Cheng Yan suddenly disliked the pile of fat on her mother¡¯s body. Just like Ye Kehuan, her mother would definitely steal a lot of the limelight.


    However, those two people dressed really casually, or should she say they were shabby? Without wearing jewelry or anything, the shoes on their feet and the suitcases in their hand were also worth a little money, but they were not new products. It seemed that her family was not well off.


    Thinking of this, Cheng Yan smiled lightly: ¡°This is Mama Ye?¡±


    Ye Ling looked at her, and the corners of her lips rose slightly: ¡°Yeah, I am Ye Kehuan¡¯s mother, Ye Ling.¡±


    ¡°Well, please come in.¡± Cheng Yan smiled, then let go of the door frame, and finally took a look at Ye Kehuan, and then walked lazily towards the others inside.


    Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan shared a look, and then walked in without saying a word, holding each other¡¯s arms.


    The small villa seemed to be well-decorated. It was not crowded and had a large space. Although it was not as good as Ye Kehuan¡¯s house, Ye Kehuan felt that such an area was more suitable for humans.


    When they walked to the sofa, they saw a middle-aged woman wearing a peacock-blue sequined skirt sitting next to Cheng Yan. The middle-aged woman was quite white and fat at the same time, with layers on her belly, like a swimming ring. Although she was not pretty, she was wearing Bvlgari earrings and necklaces, a diamond ring from Chopard, a Piaget watch, and a Van Cleef & Arpels brooch. This was probably the legendary ¡°when just money is not enough, use brands to enhance¡±.


    She was really messy. Ye Ling looked at the things she was wearing and couldn¡¯t help but think, if she were those brand designers, she would probably have fainted. After all, the soul of her work would have been presented like this. It was all ruined. Truly, this was the nouveau riche.


    Cheng Yan¡¯s aesthetic looked better, but she seemed to have overthought everything. Her beige one-piece dress and light brown windbreaker gave her an elegant and cold look, but she wore no earrings. It was obviously more suitable for heavy makeup, gorgeous and aggressive earrings. Also, her necklace was the type with a complicated design, which looked too cumbersome.


    Speaking of which, the designer of that necklace was Ye Ling¡¯s friend. She knew that if her friend saw that the jewelry he designed was worn in that way, he would vomit blood and attempt suicide. But Ye Ling just looked right in her eyes, kept her thoughts in her heart, and said nothing with her mouth.


    At that time, Mrs. Blue Peacock was flipping through a magazine, and when she saw Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling were coming, she looked up and down and couldn¡¯t help but sneer. Where was Ye Kehuan worthy of competing with her daughter?


    ¡°Hello,¡± Mrs. Blue Peacock smiled after a while, ¡°I am Yanyan¡¯s mother, Liu Yixin.¡±


    ¡°Hello, Ye Ling.¡± Ye Ling said with a small smile.


    ¡°There are a few rooms upstairs, you can go choose one you¡¯d like to stay in.¡± Cheng Yan took a sip of water, raised her eyebrows, and pointed to the stairs.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go up first.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, and then took Ye Ling¡¯s arm and walked towards the stairs with her.


    After walking halfway up the stairs with her heavy suitcase, Ye Ling couldn¡¯t help but sigh: ¡°The design of the steps is really unscientific; too narrow, too high. They blindly paid attention to the appearance. It is easy to get tired when walking. No practicality at all; it¡¯s time for this designer to reflect.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at her: ¡°Okay, let me carry the suitcase in your hand, so it will be easier to walk.¡±


    Ye Ling let out a sigh: ¡°No, I have hands and feet, and I¡¯m only 18 years old this year. I¡¯m upright, young, and strong. Why would I want you to carry it?¡±


    After hearing this, Ye Kehuan laughed again: ¡°Yes, my dear eighteen-year-old girl, come on, victory is here!¡±


    Yu Mei¡¯s house.


    Yu Mei was putting on makeup in front of her dressing table at the moment. Because she was dissatisfied no matter what, her makeup was constantly removed and applied, then removed again, striving for perfection. She didn¡¯t care about Ye Kehuan, because she didn¡¯t put the poor woman in her eyes at all, but when she thought of going on the show with Jiang Laien, she felt that she couldn¡¯t lose.


    Speaking of which, Yu Mei made her debut earlier than Jiang Laien. At the beginning her limelight overwhelmed Jiang Laien, and she was sought after by everyone as soon as she debuted. She was known as the dark horse with the most potential in the entertainment industry and had an unlimited future. But after appearing in a movie alongside Jiang Laien, her limelight was overshadowed by the latter. Obviously she was the leading actress, but everyone was paying attention to the supporting role of Jiang Laien, and even said that the leading role was not as good as the supporting one. Whether it was acting or appearance, the supporting role played the leading role. She was really angry.


    Later, she tried to rise, but she was still crushed by Jiang Laien. Every time she finally bought a hot search, it would eventually be overwhelmed by Jiang Laien. When the TV series she starred in started, it would compete against Jiang Laien¡¯s movies. The public attention was thus shifted from her to Jiang Laien.


    For that reason, she really couldn¡¯t get along with Jiang Laien. Later, she finally shocked everyone in the circle by exposing her family background. As a result, Jiang Laien¡¯s parents forced Jiang Laien to a celebrity gathering and she was photographed and posted to the Internet, which caused a greater sensation.


    Later, Yu Mei stood in front of her private jet and uploaded it to the Internet, which aroused heated discussion. As a result, Jiang Laien was photographed on her family¡¯s ultra-luxury private yacht to go out for fun. She was praised for being really white and beautiful. In that way, she had deep resentment towards Jiang Laien, and she often secretly fought her in private.


    Now they were going to participate on a show together, and she swore, this time, Jiang Laien would never be able to overwhelm her.


    The crew took a close-up of her applying lipstick for a while, and then took a photo of her dressing table. Let alone cosmetics, her dressing table alone was scary enough. They saw that there were shiny diamonds at least an inch wide on the sides of the square makeup mirror. Under the shining of the light, their brilliance flowed, which made people stunned.


    In addition, the design of Yu Mei¡¯s house also revealed a strong and luxurious style in every inch. With the blessing of champagne and Italian luxury furniture, it looked like a queen¡¯s palace.


    After putting on her makeup, Yu Mei, who was wearing a black dress, turned around, looked at the people from the program group, and looked at the door: ¡°I have done all this, why hasn¡¯t anyone delivered any food and drink¡­?¡¯


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, we are not hungry!¡± the crew said hurriedly.


    Yu Mei sighed, stood up, walked towards the door, and opened the door, only to collide with the maid who had just brought the just and walked up. In an instant, the tray in the maid¡¯s hand fell to the ground, the biscuits on it fell to the ground, and the drinks in the glasses also dripped onto Yu Mei¡¯s body.


    The crew smelled big gossip, and immediately ran over to help her--with their equipment.


    When Yu Mei saw that, blue veins on her temples floated to the surface. If it weren¡¯t for the fact she was recording a show right now, she would have wanted to slap them.


    Seeing that she had made a mistake, the maid remembered how Yu Mei usually treated people who made mistakes. She instantly felt a chill thinking about it. She knelt down and trembled and said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m sorry, I didn¡¯t mean it. Please forgive me! Give me a chance, okay, I will never do this kind of thing again¡­¡±


    The people in the crew couldn¡¯t help but stare at each other. After the maid made a mistake, her reaction was so big, did it show from the side that Yu Mei was actually a terrible person? In fact, a person on the Internet who claimed to be a former employee of Yu Mei¡¯s used their Weibo to complain about Yu Mei, saying that she had a bad temper and did not regard employees as human beings. The account was deleted, and everyone thought that all of that was what the person said when trying to be trending, so they didn¡¯t care.


    Yu Mei looked at the maid in anger, but still smiled: ¡°What are you talking about, it doesn¡¯t matter. Don¡¯t worry about it.¡±


    However, the maid still shivered, completely disbelieving: ¡°Really, really?¡±


    ¡°Of course, what are you nervous about?¡± Yu Mei smiled awkwardly.


    The people in the crew also seemed a bit embarrassed.


    Afterwards, Yu Mei cleared her throat: ¡°I¡¯ll see how my mother is preparing. If we are ready, let¡¯s go.¡±


    At that time, Jiang Laien was at home.


    Jiang Laien was wearing a simple white T-shirt from Xiao Xiong Jia¡¯s basic line, with two pigtails, squeezing juice and baking cupcakes in a white minimalist Nordic-style kitchen.


    ¡°Do you usually cook for yourself?¡± the program crew asked.


    ¡°When I¡¯m busy with work, I don¡¯t cook for myself, but recently, I became a little interested in cooking, so I started to try to make some simple things.¡± Jiang Laien raised her head and smiled. She looked very awkward without makeup. It was refreshing, and it was especially moving when she laughed.


    ¡°It¡¯s hard work, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    ¡°In fact, it¡¯s okay. In this world, as long as you are alive, everyone has to work very hard, and so do you. You run around every day, and you have to carry such a heavy camera,¡± Jiang Laien took out the cupcakes from the oven while talking and filled some glasses with juice, and handed them to the crew. ¡°Today, my pastry chef is not at home. I am definitely not as good as him, but if you don¡¯t dislike it, you can try it.¡±


    The crew were dumbfounded and hurriedly said: ¡°Oh, you¡¯re really too polite!¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and shook her head: ¡°Taste it. I¡¯m sorry to have you wait so long, but I can do this at least. My mother said that she has almost handled everything in the company, so she should be back in a moment.¡±


    Jiang Laien was gentle and considerate when she spoke, putting on no airs at all. The people in the crew were inadvertently captured by her. In their heart, it was no wonder that Jiang Laien was so popular, there was a reason.


    Then Jiang Laien spoke again: ¡°I¡¯m going to put on some makeup now.¡±


    The members of the crew immediately smiled and nodded, and then walked out of the kitchen with her.


    The Jiang¡¯s decoration style was clean and simple. Whether it was lamps or furniture, the shames and lines were very unique. The overall color scheme was mainly gray and white, a bit desolate but very comfortable, and the whole place captured low-key luxury. Coupled with the large space and clever use of many frame divisions, it gave a sense of post-modern futurism at a glance.


    After the group arrived at Jiang Laien¡¯s bedroom, they were surprised the moment they entered. They saw a very strong character hanging in her bedroom. After seeing the red badge, wasn¡¯t it the character of a famous calligraphy artist? It was said that the old man¡¯s handwriting was very hard to find, and he never easily picked up a to write for others, but they did not expect that he personally wrote a whole sentence for Jiang Laien: ¡°Laien must be a great woman, with kindness and generosity¡±.


    If nothing else, just this piece was already invaluable, right? To be appreciated by the old gentleman, Jiang Laien could already be regarded as a winner in life in the entertainment circle by this alone.


    In addition, Jiang Laien did not accumulate too many cosmetics on her makeup table. The lipstick did not have a full color number, and the cosmetics were not a set, because she only bought the ones that suited her. But every cosmetic and skin care product could be regarded as a high-end product among luxury products, such as Guerlain¡¯s golden brick lipstick, which was worth 350,000, and Cle de Peau Beaute¡¯s 30th anniversary limited edition cream, which was worth 780,000 per bottle. At first glance, she was very low-key, but it was really not so on closer inspection.


    The people in the crew ate the cupcakes baked by Jiang Laien, and shed tears of happiness, and then hurriedly took out their phones and took pictures of the cakes that had not been finished. Yes, there were very few people who could eat a cake made by the very rich and famous actress Jiang Laien. At that moment, everyone felt that they were the winners in life in this world.


    After Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling had selected a room, they opened their suitcases and then took out the contents within. The expensive clothes were neatly hung in the closet, and the skincare products and cosmetics were placed on the dressing table one by one. After all the items were put away, Ye Ling walked to the mirror again and tilted her head to look at the clothes she was wearing.


    The white vest and black oversized baseball uniform jacket, with Ye Kehuan¡¯s name embroidered on the top, looked quite good and pretty. Ye Ling looked in the mirror for a while and was very satisfied. 1


    After that, the Ye family mother and daughter went downstairs again together.


    When they walked to the sofa in the living room, they realized that Yu Mei and her mother Li Yaolin, and Xiao Mingguang and his mother Guo Yuqin had also arrived.


    When Yu Mei saw Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling, she just glanced over, greeted them in a calm manner, and sat next to Cheng Yan. After seeing Ye Ling, Li Yaolin was a little stunned by her face, and smiled: ¡°You look so young. Do you have any secret medicines?¡±


    After listening, Ye Ling smiled and said, ¡°Thank you for the praise, the secret is to exercise more. Set aside at least one hour a day to exercise. This way, you can improve your base-level metabolism and make your mentality more and more healthy.¡±


    After listening, Li Yaolin laughed: ¡°It¡¯s great to have time for exercise. Unfortunately, I just don¡¯t have much time to exercise. I am too busy. There are always so many things in the company that I can¡¯t handle. Ah, so tiring. My husband has too many responsibilities. To support thousands of employees, I also have to be there to help. I really can¡¯t neglect anything at all. Therefore, a layman like me can only buy skin care products. I really envy people who live a leisurely life.¡±


    The literal meaning of Li Yaolin was actually quite simple. It was to show off that she was a master, so she was busy like an emperor, unlike ordinary people like Ye Ling, who were just idle.


    At the time, Cheng Yan¡¯s mother Liu Yixin also spoke up: ¡°Yes, I am too tired, there are too many things to deal with. Hey, to be honest, sometimes I really envy those who don¡¯t have to be busy with their careers, women who have it relatively simple. Money is actually useless, and simplicity is the best.¡±


    Ye Ling smiled after hearing what they said. Of course she could hear the meaning in their words. It seemed that they were envious of ordinary people, but in fact, they were showing off how wealthy they were, incomparable to normal people.


    At that time, Li Yaolin sat next to Liu Yixin and looked at her clothes: ¡°Your clothes are really beautiful.¡±


    ¡°Haha. really? I took the last one. There was another customer at the time, but I paid an extra 200,000 in order to secure it¡­¡± Liu Yixin said, laughing from ear to ear.


    On the other hand, Cheng Yan and Yu Mei nestled together on the sofa and flipped through a fashion magazine, talking about some of the items in it and some emerging designers who had recently emerged. They hardly paid any attention to Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan. At the same time, Cheng Yan also had a sense of superiority. The feeling of stomping Ye Kehuan under her feet was really great.


    Ye Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, and didn¡¯t say much, but walked to the side of Xiao Mingguang and Guo Yuqin, and took the initiative to greet them.


    Seeing this, Guo Yuqin hurriedly smiled and said, ¡°Hello!¡±


    ¡°Are you sore?¡± Ye Ling asked Guo Yuqin, who had been rubbing her legs and shoulders.


    Guo Yuqin smiled embarrassedly: ¡°It¡¯s just, the restaurant at home has been too busy recently. After a long time, my waist and back ache. Besides, thinking of recording this show today, I didn¡¯t sleep well last night.¡±


    Guo Yuqin seemed to be a very simple woman, dressed very simply, not of any brand. She was just a woman who ran a small restaurant. Her son had only recently become popular. Although she had made some money, she had been thrifty all her life. She had become accustomed to not spending money, so even if she had money to spend now, she was reluctant to do so. To give her some time to rest, Xiao Mingguang forced her to come on the show.


    Ye Ling laughed after listening to Guo Yuqin¡¯s words, then walked around behind her and stood still, and rolled up her sleeves: ¡°I have recently learned a few massage techniques that can relieve pain. I¡¯ll do some for you.¡±


    ¡°Oh, why must you embarrass me?¡± Guo Yuqin turned her head to look at her, a little embarrassed. She was a person who was very afraid to trouble others.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, you relax, what embarrassment?¡± Ye Ling said, putting her hands on her shoulders and neck, and slowly pressing them up.


    Xiao Mingguang saw it and ran to Ye Ling to see how she massaged her.


    ¡°What, do you want to learn?¡± Ye Ling looked at him and asked with a smile.


    ¡°Yeah, I will give my mom a massage after I learn it.¡± Xiao Mingguang smiled heartily and cleanly.


    Ye Ling smiled again when she saw that, and then began to teach him.


    ¡°Oh, it seems to be a lot better already! Sister, your technique is really good!¡± Guo Yuqin finished speaking, and then immediately picked up a large black basket that she had placed at her feet, and then took out a few things from it. ¡°This is a special cake in our hometown, and I made it by myself. There are no preservatives added. I brought a portion for everyone. Come, try it, try it, it¡¯s very fragrant!¡±


    Saying this, Guo Yuqin stood up with the packages of specialty products and distributed them to Cheng Yan, Yu Mei, and Ye Kehuan.


    After Cheng Yan and Yu Mei took them, they said thank you on the surface, but there was still an indescribable look floating in their eyes. Cheng Yan even glanced at Guo Yuqin¡¯s hands that were a bit dirty because of the work she had done. She put it down, and whispered in Yu Mei¡¯s ear: ¡°Won¡¯t this be poisonous to eat?¡±


    Yu Mei chuckled, not responding, and just nodded. She just put the cake aside and forgot about it, let alone tasting it.


    After Ye Kehuan got hers, she tore it apart without saying anything, then took out the cake and took a bite, and said excitedly: ¡°Auntie, your hands are so clever, this cake is really delicious, very crispy. It smells so good!¡±


    Guo Yuqin laughed from ear to ear when she heard that: ¡°Is that right? If you like it, then you can eat more, and I will send it to you later!¡±


    ¡°Thank you Auntie!¡± Ye Kehuan said, smiled, and took another bite, and walked to Ye Ling again, took out a piece and fed it to her mouth, ¡°Mom, try it too!¡±


    Ye Ling took a bite and after tasting it carefully, she also nodded: ¡°Yes, it¡¯s delicious, it¡¯s really delicious.¡±


    When Guo Yuqin saw that they liked the cakes that she made by herself, she felt happier. Then she sighed, looked around, and said, ¡°This house is so big and beautiful. I have lived for so long, but it¡¯s my first time in such a place.¡±


    Xiao Mingguang laughed, then squatted by her and looked up at her: ¡°Mom, when I make more money in the future, I will buy you a big house like this.¡±


    After listening happily, Guo Yuqin raised her hand and waved it: ¡°No, I¡¯ll just sigh, no big house, not a big house. It will be troublesome to clean if it is big, and cleaning it will cost money. I think where I live now is pretty good too.¡±


    The mother and daughter of the Cheng family and the mother and daughter of the Yu family were sitting aside, looking at Guo Yuqin and Ye Ling from a distance, secretly mocking them. Sure enough, there were sixty-nine divisions between people. Common people were only suitable to be with common people.


    Because Jiang Laien¡¯s mother was busy that day, the two of them were supposed to arrive in the afternoon, but unfortunately there was a flight delay, so they didn¡¯t rush over. They were not seen until 5:30 in the afternoon, and they were still on the plane. However, everyone in the villa had already begun to scream.


    Finally, Cheng Yan said: ¡°Are you hungry?¡±


    Guo Yuqin smiled and said, ¡°I¡¯m hungry.¡±


    Yu Mei nodded: ¡°Well then, let¡¯s eat first.¡±


    ¡°Where can we eat?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°What do you think of this restaurant?¡± Cheng Yan took out her tablet, turned on an app, found a restaurant, and showed it to everyone.


    They saw a restaurant named ¡°Drunken Flower Workshop¡± on the top, and below it was an introduction, pictures, and comments about the restaurant. It was a high-end Chinese restaurant with antique decoration and many double-sided embroidered screens, which was very atmospheric and compelling. In addition, the price was very expensive. However, those had had eaten said it was very good, and that it was the best Chinese food they had ever eaten. The ingredients were exquisite, fresh, and high-quality, and they were very conscientious.


    Seeing this, Guo Yuqin was a little nervous: ¡°It looks pretty good, but it should be expensive, right?¡±


    Because Guo Yuqin saw someone comment: ¡°I went to Drunken Flower Workshop with my friends on Sunday and ordered a few dishes and a few small drinks. I ate very comfortably and was very full. There were no no bad dishes for 20,000. Among the high-end restaurants, they are a rare one with conscience, and they did not water down anything.¡±


    A few people and a few dishes cost 20,000 yuan. What was this concept? Guo Yuqin hurt when she thought about it. The most expensive meal she ever had was only a few hundred yuan.


    When Cheng Yan saw that, the corner of her lips twitched slightly, and she glanced at Guo Yuqin, then at Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan: ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯m inviting you. I have already made an appointment.¡±


    What kind of place was Drunken Flower Workshop? Drunken Flower Workshop was a very famous high-end restaurant. Most people basically just passed by it and had a look. Everyone who went in was rich. And even if you were rich, it didn¡¯t mean you could get in if you wanted, because you had to make an appointment. Why was Drunken Flower Workshop so famous? First, there were always a lot of celebrities who came to dine at Drunken Flower Workshop, which was an invisible promotion. Second, the ingredients at Drunken Flower Workshop were really top-quality ingredients, and the freshness was even better. Those frozen products were incomparable. In order to ensure the freshness and naturalness of the food and vegetables, the restaurant also raised some poultry and planted some vegetables. Some wealthy people even went to the restaurant¡¯s farm and ranch to directly buy fruits and vegetables and so on.


    In addition, the chefs of Drunken Flower Workshop were all internationally renowned chefs, who perfectly guaranteed the taste of the dishes, and the satisfaction of everyone who ate them. Therefore, although the price of the restaurant was very high, their guests were still an endless stream, and there were even many local tyrants who came all the way to Jingcheng just to have a meal at Drunken Flower Workshop. 2


    Therefore, Cheng Yan had already planned to go to Drunken Flower Workshop.


    Ye Ling smiled slightly after hearing this, ¡°Well, since you want to go to Drunken Flower Workshop, then let¡¯s go to Drunken Flower Workshop.¡±


    After the decision was made, the members of the four groups of families took action, walked out of the villa, each took a few cars prepared by the program group, and set off together towards the Drunken Flower Workshop.


    The sky in Jingcheng in March was much warmer than that of Senchuan, and the trees on the road also sprouted, which looked very refreshing.


    Arriving at Drunken Flower Workshop, the car slowly stopped, and a magnificent storefront was exposed in front of everyone.


    Immediately after the car stopped, someone came over to help open the door, and the service was also very comprehensive.


    After entering the restaurant, they saw a pool in the center with smoke entwining the rockery and water lilies lying in the water. The background was a picture of a beautiful flying sky, and the air was filled with a faint incense. It was really beautiful. Ye Kehuan swept around with her hands behind her back, and saw that it was already full of people who were dining. It looked very lively, and the taste of the food was tangy, which drew people¡¯s tongues.


    After confirming that Cheng Yan had an appointment, the waiter led them to a box on the second floor.


    The box was more expensive than dine-in, but Cheng Yan didn¡¯t care, after all, what she wanted was to show off.


    This box was quite large, and the decoration was antique. The front partition in front was pasted with 3D peach blossoms. In the center was a picture of a beautiful girl. There was a small stool and a short table in front of the picture. The partition in the back was written with Chinese cuisine recipes. In addition, the tables and chairs were made of mahogany, including windows and doors. The windows and doors were also carved in Chinese style, exquisite and extravagant. After pushing them open, the night view of Jingcheng could be seen completely, the lights were dim, and it was very beautiful.


    After the waiter handed over the menu, Guo Yuqin glanced at the price, not daring to order, thinking that it was too expensive.


    Cheng Yan heard the words and smiled and said: ¡°It¡¯s okay, you order, anyway, I¡¯m hosting, I still have this little money, so you don¡¯t have to worry.¡±


    However, Guo Yuqin still shook her head and handed the menu to Ye Ling: ¡°I¡¯ll forget it, you can order it.¡±


    Ye Ling smiled when she heard the words, then took the menu, took a look, and said, ¡°Then I want a silver silk hibiscus shrimp, Dongpo meat, and a small fried black mountain pig.¡±


    ¡°Baby, what do you want to eat?¡± Ye Ling looked at Ye Kehuan.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°I won¡¯t order any more. I like everything you ordered.¡±


    ¡°Okay, that¡¯s it.¡± After ordering Ye Ling gave the menu to Cheng Yan and Yu Mei.


    After Cheng Yan and Yu Mei took over the menu, they ordered a few more dishes with their family members before returning the menu to the waiter.


    ¡°Okay, please wait a moment.¡± After the waiter filled a cup of tea for everyone, he bowed his notebook and walked out.


    At the same time, a woman in a cheongsam walked in with a guzheng. After slightly nodding at everyone, she smiled and walked to the beauty picture, sat on the small stool, and put the guzheng on a low table. She lowered her head, raised her eyes, and started to play.


    ¡°Wow, there are beautiful women playing tunes.¡± Guo Yuqin felt that she had opened up a new world.


    Yu Mei smiled and said, ¡°Yeah, that¡¯s why it¡¯s so expensive. Because it is very good in all aspects. Every time I come to Jingcheng, I must come to Drunken Flower Workshop.¡±


    Yu Mei¡¯s focus was on the two words ¡°every time¡±. The average person may never come here once, but she can come many times, just because she had money.


    ¡°Me too, and I especially love our country¡¯s classical culture, including music, so I really like the guqin sound here, so melodious. I feel that my whole body and mind have been purified. This Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms sounds really good.¡± At this time, Cheng Yan also hurriedly spoke.


    Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows. Was she serious? Guqin?


    At that moment, Ye Ling looked at Ye Kehuan, pursed her lips, and looked up at Cheng Yan: ¡°It¡¯s a guzheng.¡±


    After Cheng Yan listened, the expression on her face instantly froze: ¡°Yes, isn¡¯t it?¡±


    Ye Ling smiled, turned her head to look at the person who was sitting in front of the beautiful tapestry, and said, ¡°I¡¯ll tell you the most obvious difference. Guqin has seven strings, and guzheng has 24 or 26 strings. In addition, the guqin has a calm tone and the zither is mellow and melodious.¡±


    Cheng Yan became more and more embarrassed: ¡°Yes, that¡¯s it¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan took a sip of tea and looked at the guzheng: ¡°Also, this is not Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms. This is High Mountain Flowing Water.¡±


    Cheng Yan listened and raised her hand to tuck her hair: ¡°Oh, I just got stuck in my head. I¡¯ve been too busy filming recently, so it¡¯s a bit easy to crash.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded, did not say much, and just put down her teacup.


    ¡°In short, I think it¡¯s really good here, very interesting.¡± Cheng Yan continued to smile awkwardly and politely, but she greeted Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling a thousand times in her heart.


    After the show was released, if this segment was not cut, she would definitely be laughed at for her ignorance. She didn¡¯t know what the two people surnamed Ye were playing. Wasn¡¯t it just having a deeper understanding of ancient culture? Looking at them like this, they could only brush up their sense of existence in this respect.


    Yu Mei glanced at them, and did not participate in any chat content related to ancient culture, consciously pretending to be dead, and did not make a stand for Cheng Yan. Anyway, they were plastic sisters, and it was more important to keep her face.


    After a while, finally, the waiter brought the first dish. It was a plate of Silver Silk Hibiscus Shrimp. It was an improved version of it. At the same time, it was not deep-fried like normal. It only used larger shrimps, and each one was cut into four slices without separating. Once it was cooked, it would curl and turn into a flower. After being plated, it looked like a huge hibiscus flower, which looked perfect.


    ¡°Please, eat.¡± Cheng Yan raised her hand.


    ¡°Then, thank you.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she reached out and grabbed a shrimp in her mouth and chewed it carefully.


    Ye Ling and Guo Yuqin also extended their chopsticks.


    The prawn meat was firm and had a bit of elasticity. When you eat it, you would know that the ingredients were very fresh, and the taste was also very delicious, faintly revealing the fragrance of hibiscus. However, it still felt like something was missing.


    After Cheng Yan ate a shrimp, she was full of praise. Then, she took another shrimp for her mother Liu Yixin. After she ate it, she asked, ¡°Well, isn¡¯t it good?¡±


    After listening, Liu Yixin nodded immediately: ¡°It¡¯s delicious. This shrimp is really good. I¡¯ve never tasted such a delicious shrimp. The exquisite sweetness and the fragrance of hibiscus blend together. It¡¯s absolutely perfect!¡±


    Guo Yuqin also nodded: ¡°Yes, there is a reason why expensive things are expensive!¡±


    Yu Mei smiled and said, ¡°Otherwise, how come so many celebrities would rush to eat here?¡±


    But Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling both put down their chopsticks and didn¡¯t pinch them anymore.


    Immediately afterwards, the waiters successively brought up the dishes they ordered.


    The table was full, and the presentation of each dish was very good, very exquisite, and it looked like a piece of art. With that guzheng music, it made people feel like they had come to an ancient royal banquet.


    Cheng Yan and Yu Mei laughed openly and talked about their knowledge of these dishes.


    When it was almost done, Cheng Yan looked at Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan: ¡°It¡¯s really good here, don¡¯t you think?¡±


    Poor people should be ecstatic to come to such a place, so of course, she had to interview their feelings.


    Ye Kehuan nodded and picked up a small piece of Black Mountain pork: ¡°Most dishes are really delicious, especially this one.¡±


    Ye Ling smiled: ¡°Indeed, most of the dishes are pretty good, but some are slightly flawed.¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard Ye Ling say that, her face turned black again. What was their emotional intelligence, to speak that way? Was she still picky when she was paying for them? Afterwards, Cheng Yan thought again and felt that, no matter what, let her do it. So pick and choose, and see if the netizens will spit her to death.


    ¡°Oh, for example?¡± Cheng Yan asked.


    ¡°For example, this Silver Silk Hibiscus Shrimp, I am very dissatisfied.¡± After Ye Ling finished speaking, her face suddenly became a little horrible, and immediately afterwards, she rang the dinner bell.


    Whether it was her expression or her tone of voice, Ye Ling suddenly changed her personality, and everyone in the box was dumbfounded. Ye Kehuan was also a little startled, and couldn¡¯t help putting down her chopsticks, turning her head to look at her mother.


    Soon, the door was pushed open, and a waiter walked in and asked respectfully: ¡°Is there anything I can help with?¡±


    Ye Ling tilted her head: ¡°Call your manager here.¡±


    The waiter was a young girl who was shocked by Ye Ling¡¯s aura, then nodded hurriedly: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Then, the waiter retreated.


    Cheng Yan, on the side, looked at the door, and then at Ye Ling. Could it be that Ye Ling was going to do something dumb? This would be fun, she was making trouble? She started making trouble just because it didn¡¯t suit her taste? Good, make a fuss, it would be best to fight, and wait for the show to air, then the Ye family mother and daughter would definitely be spat to death. The more she thought about it, the happier Cheng Yan became.


    Not long after, a flat-headed man in a suit and leather shoes walked in. He just stood next to Ye Ling. Before he started speaking, Ye Ling said, ¡°What¡¯s the matter with you? Are the vegetables so expensive? Isn¡¯t it just for the sake of quality control to give people the best taste and experience? Why is the result so perfunctory? Then the hibiscus in the hibiscus shrimp is also a defective product, right? Why did you use a defective product to make it?¡±


    Ye Ling looked very angry: ¡°Why?¡±


    The manager stood on the side, but he was mute and pale.


    Cheng Yan watched from the side, and calmly lifted her glass of water and took a sip. Ye Ling was too much. Even if the taste was not good, just say so, it wasn¡¯t a big deal to let the store pay for a share. Speaking of which, could she even taste if it was good or bad? She was afraid that she was deliberately looking for a sense of existence.


    What, you want a few more shots? Okay, just let her have a few more shots, and then get scolded to death. Cheng Yan still remembered the enmity of the guqin versus guzheng just then.


    Immediately afterwards, Ye Ling went on to say: ¡°You are fooling around like this, are you worthy of the diner¡¯s trust in you? Are you worthy? Now, immediately, and immediately, delete this dish from the menu, and throw away all the stock of hibiscus! When it is back in season, let me have a look, don¡¯t you dare serve this dish again!¡±


    Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t help but laugh. She thought of herself like she would make a look.


    However, at that moment, the flat-headed man suddenly bowed deeply: ¡°Yes, boss! Sorry, boss!¡±


    The author has something to say: Cheng Yan: ____________________


    TL/N


    1 - I don¡¯t know when their clothes changed from dresses to baseball jackets. It makes more sense to me, because Kehuan doesn¡¯t like dresses and skirts, but I don¡¯t think I¡¯ll change the previous chapter.


    2 - A local tyrant is just a rich person. They are rich enough to do whatever they want within their own territory. I believe this term came about from extremely rich merchants being able to hire thugs and pay off magistrates to basically become a ruler.

 CH 58

    ¡°Okay, you can go now.¡± Ye Ling said sullenly, and with a wave of her hand, the manager exited the box nervously.


    Next, Ye Ling looked at the woman playing the guzheng: ¡°Thanks for your hard work, go and rest too.¡±


    Ye Ling¡¯s expression had eased down, becoming polite and approachable, liked by everyone.


    After listening, the woman pursed her lips and nodded with a smile, and then left the box with the guzheng in her arms.


    At that moment, Cheng Yan and Yu Mei had already been stunned at the table. They never thought that this shabby woman in front of them would be the owner of Drunken Flower Workshop. Drunken Flower Workshop was not an ordinary restaurant. It meant that there was at least a small amount of money in her hand. Anyway, she must not be an ordinary person. At least, not as poor as they thought.


    Li Yaolin and Liu Yixin stared blankly, a little dumbfounded.


    Cheng Yan looked at Ye Ling, then at Ye Kehuan, still holding a sigh of frustration in her heart. How was it possible? In any case, the two people in front of her still looked shabby, but the shock they brought her was like seeing a beggar driving a Maserati on a flyover.


    At that time, Ye Ling smiled and said: ¡°Since this meal today did not reach the level it should have, I will treat everyone to eat.¡±


    Cheng Yan gritted her teeth with hatred, but she still had to smile on the surface.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Ye Ling: ¡°When did you open this restaurant?¡±


    Their span was too big.


    Since the Ye family¡¯s massive business was very large and involved, she, as the Ye family¡¯s daughter, had many things she was not clear about. Coupled with the fact that she had been working hard in the entertainment industry for the last two years, she didn¡¯t know much about family matters. She had always heard that Jingcheng had opened a restaurant that could only be afforded by local tyrants, and the business was booming. There were many people who invited Ye Kehuan to go there, but Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t know that this high-end restaurant was originally her own.


    Ye Ling laughed after listening, ¡°Why, your mother is not allowed to engage in catering?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t mean that.¡± Ye Kehuan shrugged.


    She had to say that her mother was really a terrible woman, and she never forgot to make money when she went out to play. Just like this. On the surface, she seemed to be accusing the restaurant, but in fact, the showed the strictness of the restaurant management¡¯s control of ingredients. This way, after the broadcast, the restaurant would definitely be praised to the sky, and then would attract more passenger flow. Ye Kehuan suddenly understood what was called the river of wealth. It was not unreasonable that her parents would climb all the way up the rankings of the rich.


    ¡°Haha,¡± Ye Ling laughed shortly, and then looked at everyone present, ¡°Then shall we go out for a stroll in Jingcheng?¡±


    Cheng Yan listened and said with a smile: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Afterwards, the group left the Drunken Flower Workshop and walked out.


    Cheng Yan and Yu Mei followed closely behind them and couldn¡¯t help looking at each other. Li Yaolin and Liu Yixin looked at the beautiful Ye Ling in front of them, and they couldn¡¯t help but feel jealous and unhappy in their hearts. Not to mention anything else, just talking about Ye Ling¡¯s face, they already felt very uncomfortable--she was at the age of a vixen, so why was she pretending to be tender? If it weren¡¯t because they were filming the show, they would have sat down and made complaints a while ago.


    But¡­


    After a while, Cheng Yan quickly adjusted her mentality again. After all, wasn¡¯t it just opening a restaurant, and having a few small dollars in hand didn¡¯t mean much. Such a restaurant could not create too much of a problem. Maybe the Ye family used all of their own assets to open it, and she didn¡¯t know if they were the original owners. After all, it seemed to have made a lot of money, but the rent was so expensive that even Cheng Yan might have balked, and there were so many bells and whistles that cost money. Calculating carefully, this way, a month¡¯s net profit might not even reach one or two million, thank God.


    Otherwise, why would they dress so shabbily? Something was wrong.


    Moreover, such a restaurant, if her father wanted to open one, it would be easy, and it could even be opened as a side business, which was nothing remarkable.


    Thinking about it this way, Cheng Yan felt that she was worrying unnecessarily, so she felt that her family was awesome, and that her father¡¯s business was much larger than theirs. How could Ye Kehuan and her family run a restaurant? They only had the Drunken Flower Workshop, and were nothing without it.


    In the blink of an eye, the group of people walked out of Drunken Flower Workshop. Since Lin Yaolin said she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, Yu Mei accompanied her to the villa first. In that way, only Cheng Yan, Xiao Mingguang, and Ye Kehuan were left to continue wandering in Jingcheng.


    Not long after, the few people came to the commercial pedestrian street in Jingcheng.


    The pedestrian zone in Jingcheng looked pretty nice and had its own characteristics. Although every city had such a street, most of them were too commercial, and they were not worth seeing, but Jingcheng loved to play with flowers.


    The houses on both sides of the street looked antique, and every three or five steps there would be a very suitable place for taking pictures, either with lifelike murals engraved on the walls, carvings of nature¡¯s splendor, or other things, like illustrations of ancient books. In addition, there were some small lanterns hanging above the street. At that time, the small lanterns were lit, and they looked very stylish.


    Crossing a beautifully shaped arched bridge, they saw on the river flowing under the bridge, there were boatmen on both sides carrying passengers on tours, and there was a small lantern on each boat. Looking at it from a distance, it seemed as if the river was a galaxy of floating stars.


    After crossing the river, they entered a famous snack street in Jingcheng.


    They saw the vendors on the snack street next to each other, and their screams were very lively. There were so many kinds of snacks there, it was dazzling. Ye Kehuan, who had just eaten, suddenly felt hungry again.


    After passing by a seemingly flamboyant-looking sauced chicken shop, Liu Yixin glanced at the store and was tempted in an instant, then raised her hand and touched her stomach: ¡°This sauced chicken looks like a good one.¡±


    Cheng Yan listened and said with a smile: ¡°It¡¯s pretty good, this store is very popular on the Internet recently.¡±


    Ye Kehuan once looked at the sauced chicken restaurant, and was vaguely impressed, thinking it was something that was baked at a high price. Cheng Lulu had come to eat when they opened, but according to her feedback, this shop was really unpalatable, mainly because tourists who would smile at getting ripped off came.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s try it.¡± Liu Yixin said, walking over there.


    ¡°Go and see?¡± Ye Ling raised her eyebrows at Ye Kehuan.


    ¡°Okay, I also want to see what this famous sauced chicken looks like.¡± Ye Kehuan said, holding Ye Ling¡¯s arms, and standing in front of the small window and watching.


    She glanced at the menu at random and saw that it had written: 198 yuan; half a catty. [Approximately .6 kgs or 1.4 lbs]


    When Cheng Yan saw it, she bought one without blinking, and asked the store to divide it into two lunch boxes.


    Ye Ling turned her head and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Do you want to eat?¡±


    Ye Kehuan took a look, sniffed again, and finally shook her head and whispered, ¡°It¡¯s a bit expensive.¡±


    The taste of this sauced chicken did not smell authentic. And it didn¡¯t look very good on the surface, there was no sugar color, and it was too dark. She didn¡¯t know how many soy sauces had been poured on. This was laziness in production, right? Ye Kehuan¡¯s sense of smell for food had always been as keen as a police dog.


    If it was made well, Ye Kehuan would think nothing if it were sold at that price, but it was just like that. It was not for dine-in, and they did not sell the environment or service, so it was too high. If you had this spare money, why not go to a good place to eat? Expensive things were not impossible to buy, but they must be worth it. This was Ye Kehuan¡¯s way of spending money.


    Ye Ling smiled and raised her hand to hook Ye Kehuan¡¯s pointed chin: ¡°Okay, then we won¡¯t eat.¡± In fact, Ye Ling felt that way too. Although Ye Ling¡¯s cooking was not delicious, her tongue was very powerful.


    ¡°Touching me like this again,¡± Ye Kehuan looked down at her hand, ¡°Am I the pug you raised?¡±


    Ye Ling smiled, then put her hands on her face again and shook her back and forth: ¡°Yes!¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t be like this, I¡¯m filming a show, how can I be photographed when you knead me like this¡­¡± Ye Kehuan was helpless.


    Ye Ling laughed louder.


    Cheng Yan turned her head to look at them, her heart full of disdain. Even this kind of sauced chicken was too expensive? Sure enough, it should be just as she expected, the Ye family was not too rich, at best they could only be regarded as middle-class or even lower. If you had money, who cared about such a small amount of money? Even if it didn¡¯t taste good, for so little money, just buy it.


    Soon, Cheng Yan¡¯s sauced chicken had been bought. After Liu Yixin tasted a piece, she immediately smiled and looked at Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan: ¡°Want to buy some?¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°No, it¡¯s a bit expensive.¡±


    ¡°Well, do you want to try it?¡± Liu Yixin continued to smile.


    Ye Kehuan took Ye Ling¡¯s waist and nodded, ¡°Then I¡¯ll have a taste.¡±


    She wondered how unpalatable it could be. As a result, as expected, Ye Kehuan regretted it after picking up a piece and putting it in her mouth. It was really not tasty. Just this could sell for 198 yuan a catty, then couldn¡¯t she make it for three or four hundred a catty?


    Afterwards, Liu Yixin looked at Guo Yuqin instead: ¡°What about you, do you want to taste it?¡±


    Guo Yuqin hurriedly nodded, but after taking a bite, she sighed: ¡°This one is really expensive. In our town, something like this would cost 38 yuan at most! I think you have been ripped off.¡±


    Cheng Yan¡¯s face was a little stretched when she heard that. She didn¡¯t like the words ¡°ripped off¡±. What she needed was for others to envy her because she could afford everything, instead of saying that she was ripped off as if she was a fool. Afterwards, Cheng Yan smiled, and the corner of her eye flickered to Ye Ling¡¯s side, and insinuated, ¡°No matter how expensive it is, it¡¯s not more expensive than Drunken Flower Workshop. This kind of thing is trivial compared to that.¡±


    However, Guo Yuqin waved her hand immediately: ¡°It¡¯s different.¡±


    Cheng Yan looked at her with a forced smile on her face.


    ¡°Drunken Flower Workshop has beautiful rooms and beautiful surroundings, and beautiful women playing guzheng. The food is also very delicious, and the ingredients are all top-notch. Mingguang just told me that none of their meat is frozen. All of it is delivered directly from the ranch after being slaughtered. Their customer group is also rich, and this shop¡¯s customer group is ordinary people, who can¡¯t be compared to each other.¡± Guo Yuqin was extremely straightforward. She ran a restaurant, and she understood some truths.


    ¡°Yes, you are right.¡± Cheng Yan almost exploded on the spot. But Guo Yuqin didn¡¯t know.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t listen to them much, just took out her phone and found the Jingcheng food guide that Chen Lulu had sent her. Chen Lulu loved to eat for fun. Her taste was almost as good as Ye Kehuan¡¯s. Besides, she had been to Jingcheng, so Ye Kehuan felt that she could trust her.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan raised her head and said, ¡°I want to eat dou fu nao. Do any of you want to eat some?¡±


    ¡°Okay, I love that.¡± Guo Yuqin said with a smile.


    Cheng Yan pursed her lips and smiled: ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go to Yangji Dou Fu Nao, how about it?¡±


    That one specialized in making tofu brains, and it was also a very popular shop. Of course, the price was relatively expensive among similar shops.


    Ye Kehuan shook her head, ¡°It¡¯s too far away. My friend here recommended a small shop to me. It feels pretty good. It¡¯s near here. It is said to be cheap and delicious. The price-performance ratio is very high. It has been open for two decades, let¡¯s go there.¡±


    When Cheng Yan heard Ye Kehuan say that it was cheap and delicious, she was sure that her previous guess was correct. The Ye family was nothing more than that. If they were really rich, why would they care about the difference between thirty and fifty yuan?¡±


    When Guo Yuqin heard that, she nodded immediately: ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go there!¡±


    ¡°Well, wait a minute, let me open the navigation!¡± Ye Kehuan said, opening the map on Gaode, entered the address, and led everyone to walk there, saying, ¡°I heard the brown sugar bread, beef bread, and so on are very delicious. If you can still eat, you must try it later.¡± 1


    ¡°Okay, okay!¡± Guo Yuqin nodded happily.


    Cheng Yan frowned when she heard that. She had eaten bread-buns when she was very poor when she was a child, and once she had money, she never bought it again, because she always felt that that kind of roadside snack was too demeaning.


    The location of the shop was relatively remote. Although it was not very far from the snack street, it was turned around and it took several small alleys to get there. After arriving at the store, they saw that the tofu nao store was really small, with only three or five tables inside, and it looked a bit tattered.


    After Ye Kehuan saw it, she ran over excitedly and stood looking at the menu on the wall. There were many types of tofu nao, both savory and sweet, and the price was very affordable, basically between 5 and 10 yuan, the more expensive, the more ingredients.


    After several people each ordered a bowl, Ye Kehuan bought another beef bun, paid the bill, sat down at a table in the shop, took a bite, and then nodded: ¡°The taste is really good, as expected of an old shop!¡±


    ¡°Yeah, this is really too conscientious compared to that sauced chicken!¡± Guo Yuqin ate tofu brain, feeling that the money spent was easily worth it.


    Cheng Yan wanted to roll her eyes, and she said that she was reluctant to spend money on cheap food instead of refined ones. This was also a first for her. Taking a look at the bread-bun in her hand disgustedly, Cheng Yan reluctantly took a bite, only to find that it was quite delicious.


    Just when the few people finished eating, Ye Kehuan¡¯s cell phone rang.


    She took a look at her phone and saw that it was a call from Jiang Laien. Ye Kehuan felt as if she had been injected with chicken blood in an instant: ¡°Laien!¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s roar instantly shocked everyone in the store into looking at her.


    Ye Kehuan held her phone, and then laughed again: ¡°Are you here? Are you coming out? Have you eaten yet? Yeah, we are at the snack street now. Okay, we will come to Moon later. Let¡¯s meet!¡±


    After hanging up the phone, Ye Kehuan stood up and said, ¡°Laien and her mother have arrived. They are sitting at the Moon Caf¨¦ on the side of Huaxing Plaza. Let¡¯s meet them!¡±


    Cheng Yan and Liu Yixin listened, and were taken aback for a moment, then immediately took out some small mirrors and started to touch up their makeup.


    It was rare to participate on a variety show together, and Cheng Yan would not let go of the chance to get close to the Jiang family. Speaking of which, a while ago, her father had some business dealing with the Jiang family ,and she also attended a party, so she could be considered a familiar face. No matter what, the Jiang family would definitely not regard her as a stranger now. Moreover, at the party, she had a face-to-face meeting with Jiang Laien¡¯s mother. At that time, her mother also praised her as being very beautiful.


    Thinking of that, Cheng Yan felt happy in her heart. If she could have a good relationship with the Jiang family, then her personal position in the hearts of the public would at least be raised a lot.


    However, Guo Yuqin was a little tired, so Xiao Mingguang accompanied her back, only leaving the two families of Ye Kehuan and Cheng Yan.


    After that, the Ye and Cheng families set off towards Huaxing Square. After about half an hour, finally, the few people came to the Moon Caf¨¦ in Huaxing Plaza. They saw that the caf¨¦ had a strong sense of design, and its irregular shape looked like a science and technology museum.


    After entering, under the leadership of the waiter, the group arrived at the place where Jiang Laien and her mother were sitting.


    They saw Jiang Laien wearing a white windbreaker with loose jeans and white shoes. Her seaweed-like hair fell on her left chest, and the five-pointed star studs on her right earlobe were simple and elegant. She dressed very simply, but was still dazzling. She was sitting by the window at that time, smiling and communicating with her mother who also had long curly hair, wearing a black shirt and long trench coat.


    Both of them looked intellectual, elegant, and charming.


    Ye Kehuan immediately waved: ¡°Laien!¡±


    Suddenly, Jiang Laien and her mother Fan Qiuyue stopped chatting and turned their heads together, with smiles on their faces.


    Cheng Yan hurriedly rushed forward, leaving Ye Kehuan behind and strode up to them first: ¡°Hello Senior Laien, Auntie!¡±


    ¡°Ah, it¡¯s been a long time since I have seen you, you have become more beautiful!¡± At that time, Fan Qiuyue raised her eyebrows slightly, smiled, and opened her arms, ¡°Come over and let me see!¡±


    Cheng Yan was very happy when she heard that, thinking that sure enough, she still remembered her!


    However, just as Cheng Yan said, ¡°You like it¡­¡±, Fan Qiuyue walked by her side and came straight to Ye Kehuan, and held Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms. She stretched her eyebrows and continued to praise: ¡°You¡¯re such a beautiful girl, you¡¯re still so tall, but how did you get so thin? There is no flesh on your face.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed when she heard those words, and then turned to hold Fan Qiuyue¡¯s hand: ¡°Auntie, I still have meat on my body! Auntie, you look so young. Have you eaten some kind of elixir of rejuvenation?¡±


    Fan Qiuyue laughed after listening, and then looked at Ye Ling next to her: ¡°Your child¡¯s mouth is as sweet as ever.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I have a toothache all day long, she shares this virtue with her father. But, she was right this time, you look so young.¡± Ye Ling walked to them and smiled.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien also came over, stood in front of Ye Ling, and said softly: ¡°Auntie.¡±


    When Ye Ling saw Jiang Laien, she tilted her head and smiled, ¡°She¡¯s all grown up as a big girl, but she¡¯s so pretty and she has a good temperament.¡±


    Cheng Yan and Liu Yixin were standing there, their whole bodies feeling petrified.


    Especially Cheng Yan, she didn¡¯t expect that the words Fan Qiuyue just said were not to her, but to Ye Kehuan. She actually ignored her and went straight to Ye Kehuan. Moreover, looking at them like that, they seemed to be quite familiar? Could it be that Ye Kehuan¡¯s family really had a background?


    Cheng Yan didn¡¯t know where to direct her anger, but she felt that her temples were faintly aching at that time.


    At that moment, Liu Yixin stood next to fan Qiuyue and said with a smile: ¡°Sister Fan, hello.¡±


    Fan Qiuyue, who was recounting the past with Mama Ye, only noticed the existence of Liu Yixin. However, after taking a look at Liu Yixin¡¯s dress, she hesitated: ¡°You are¡­¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m Liu Yixin, Yanyan¡¯s mother and wife of Cheng Dong,¡± Liu Yixin said, turning around and pulling Cheng Yan over again. ¡°We met at the Dongli Lake project reception last time, and you praised Yanyan for her looks.¡±


    After Fan Qiuyue listened, she nodded her head in hindsight, ¡°Ah, it¡¯s you.¡±


    Was that worth boasting about? Generally speaking, when meeting someone, as long as the person was not ugly, she would praise them casually. She had praised too many people. Then, in fact, that project was a small project, and Fan Qiuyue was not personally responsible for it, and there were many people who she met that night, so it was normal not to remember her.


    After saying hello, Fan Qiuyue looked at Liu Yixin¡¯s dress, and looked at the jewels worn by Cheng Yan, vaguely feeling a bit spicy. Although she could fully understand the comparison, as it was normal to compare ordinary people to the ordinary, rich people to the rich, and the super-rich to the super-rich, it had to be very methodical. If it was inappropriate, it was really self-defeating and looked very weird.


    ¡°Yes, do you remember it?¡± Liu Yixin continued to ask with a flattering smile on her face.


    Fan Qiuyue stared at her peacock blue dress and brooch of the same color, nodded, and then changed the subject: ¡°Are you going to have something to drink?¡±


    Liu Yixin wanted to continue to say something, but Cheng Yan held her back. Even if she was a flatterer, her mother¡¯s behavior was too shameful. It was no way to flatter people. It would only make their family look inferior.


    ¡°I won¡¯t. I just ate too much food, and now I can¡¯t eat anymore.¡± Ye Ling replied.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s take a stroll? I bought a pretty dress, but I forgot to bring the jewelry for it.¡± Fan Qiuyue naturally took Ye Ling¡¯s arm.


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go to the shopping mall next door.¡± Ye Ling smiled.


    After Jiang Laien settled the bill, she also stood next to Ye Kehuan: ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±


    ¡°Okay.¡± After Ye Kehuan replied, she took her hand and followed Fan Qiuyue and Ye Ling.


    After leaving the coffee shop, Ye Kehuan tilted her head and looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s face again, and asked, ¡°Your dark circles seem to be a bit heavy. Didn¡¯t you sleep well?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance: ¡°I talked with you all night, and didn¡¯t sleep much, what do you think?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, and then immediately said: ¡°I was wrong. I should urge you to go to bed earlier. Are you sleepy now? Do you want to take a break?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien shook her head: ¡°I made up for a lot of it on the plane, and now I am not sleepy. Let¡¯s go shopping.¡±


    At that moment, Ye Ling, who was walking in front, suddenly chuckled, turned her head, and looked at them: ¡°You two really are the same as before. You can¡¯t separate them once they stick together.¡±


    Fan Qiuyue also looked back at them: ¡°After all, they grew up together. Speaking of which, at that time, her dad and I were always away from home. It was really thanks to Kehuan for taking care of her.¡±


    Ye Ling smiled, shook her head, and continued to walk forward.


    When Cheng Yan heard the content of their chat, her heart suddenly shook. Then she stepped forward and asked with a smile: ¡°So they knew each other before?¡±


    Fan Qiuyue turned her head and looked at her: ¡°Well, they started as classmates in junior high school, and continued to high school. They were not only classmates, but also friends.¡±


    That was it. Cheng Yan finally understood why Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan got together inexplicably after they met, and she finally understood why Jiang Laien didn¡¯t care about the black history of Ye Kehuan at all. It turned out that they were acquainted from a long time ago. In that way, it was no wonder that Ye Ling and Fan Qiuyue were so familiar.


    Suddenly, Cheng Yan choked up and couldn¡¯t say a word. So, that was to say, when the program was broadcast, if everyone saw this segment, Ye Kehuan could instantly turn white without doing anything? All the work promoting the fake friendship between them would turn to nothing? Maybe, even their pair CP would become more popular than before? Thinking of that, Cheng Yan¡¯s whole body felt poor. The program was still being recorded and broadcast, and it would not be too long. In other words, after a long time, Ye Kehuan would finally be able to turn over a new leaf?


    Wait, she shouldn¡¯t be too pessimistic. If they were classmates, did it indirectly mean that the Ye family didn¡¯t have much background. Just because Ye Kehuan happened to be studying at the same school with Jiang Laien and they got on, that¡¯s why the two families met?


    In that way, Cheng Yan became more confident. Also, if the Ye family really had some background, why bother to give so much ground in some details? The reason why Cheng Yan hoped that the Ye family was worse than her own was not unreasonable, because she currently only had the trump card of her family left. Only that would be able to overwhelm Ye Kehuan in this show. If even that was overshadowed by the Ye family, she would be completely and utterly defeated.


    After regaining her confidence, Cheng Yan smiled again and said, ¡°It turned out to be like this, but I didn¡¯t ever hear them mention it.¡±


    ¡°No one interviewed us about the issue,¡± Ye Kehuan shook Jiang Laien¡¯s hand and walked forward lazily. ¡°Why should I mention this inexplicably? If I mention it in that way, everyone would just say that I am hyping.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was telling the truth, but Cheng Yan¡¯s mentality was already a little sick. She always felt that when she opened her mouth, she was stabbing her. It was more like showing off, as if she was saying to people, ¡°Look, I am a superstar. From childhood friends to adults, our relationship is very good. You guys who scolded me for posting these days have been beaten in the face.¡± It was the same.


    ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± At that moment, Cheng Yan really felt that she lost the favor of the gods, and she was dying of misfortune.


    Since the shopping mall was very close to the coffee shop, on the other side of the square, there was almost no walking, and the group of people arrived at their destination.


    The shopping mall had a huge area, like a city, and just from its appearance, it was very shocking. After entering, the southern area on the first floor was full of luxury stores. Posters of various supermodels and internationally famous movie stars were posted on it, which looked very glitzy.


    As she walked, Ye Kehuan saw a poster of Jiang Laien posted outside a big-brand watch shop. The makeup of Jiang Laien on the poster was like a blue sea mermaid, with curly black hair like silk and satin spreading on the long dark blue dress. Her hand wearing the watch gently pinched her chin, dignified and invincible. In this kind of high-end brand stores, Ye Kehuan had only seen Jiang Laien as a domestic spokesperson thus far.


    Her beauty was so unique and unforgettable. Looking at it, Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips gradually curled up.


    After that, Ye Kehuan immediately patted Jiang Laien on her shoulder and pointed to the side: ¡°Look at you! That poster is really beautiful.¡±


    Jiang Laien turned to look and smiled: ¡±Why, you mean, I¡¯m not as beautiful in real life?¡±


    Ye Kehuan froze and turned her head, her eyes full of desire for survival: ¡°How is that possible? I didn¡¯t mean that, you are so much better than the photos!¡±


    Jiang Laien listened, pinched her chin again, rolled her eyes, and looked at her: ¡°So, my photos are not good-looking?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was so anxious that her ears were about to smoke: ¡°Of course not, you are beautiful no matter what, real person, photos, all beautiful! You are the only one in this world!¡±


    Jiang Laien laughed so hard that she wheezed, then took a look at her and said softly, ¡°Fool.¡±


    ¡°Where am I stupid?¡± Ye Kehuan muttered.


    ¡°You are really stupid, when I was living abroad, you prepared some surprises for me, but in the end you withdrew.¡± Jiang Laien walked slowly.


    ¡°It¡¯s just because I hadn¡¯t seen you for a long time, and I suddenly saw you, and then prepared those, I¡¯m afraid you think¡­¡± Ye Kehuan sighed.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯m just talking about it.¡± Jiang Laien smiled sweetly.


    After hearing the content of the conversation between them, Ye Ling turned her head and fixed her eyes on the hands they held tightly. She looked at Ye Kehuan, then at Jiang Laien, and finally turned thoughtfully. After going over, she continued to chat with Fan Qiuyue.


    Cheng Yan watched them talk so intimately, and felt that she and Liu Yixin were like passers-by who couldn¡¯t integrate into their world at all, their mentality really collapsing to the point where it couldn¡¯t collapse again. She really couldn¡¯t understand why Ye Kehuan could easily own things that she couldn¡¯t, even after racking her brains.


    The ground of people talked and laughed, strolling around, and then walked into a high-end jewelry store.


    Probably because it was not early anymore, only the store assistant was left in the jewelry store. Of course, it may also be because the things in there were too expensive, and ordinary rich people could not afford it, so no one came in. When the assistant saw someone coming in, she immediately walked over to the reception with a smile.


    Under the dazzling white light, the jewels in each showcase released their own brilliance to the maximum, so beautiful that they could only exist in the illusory world. Ye Kehuan was not very interested in jewels, but she felt that the jewels in the store looked very good with Jiang Laien, and they seemed to have a common temperament between them. That was, low-key gorgeous, and restrained extravagance.


    ¡°This brand of things looks really good.¡± Fan Qiuyue said to Ye Ling as she walked.


    Ye Ling nodded. She knew the founder of this brand, not only knew him, but also met to watch some football matches when she was abroad. Although the old man was very old, his spirit was very good, and he was very humorous. Once she came and went, they became good friends, and she even became friends with his son, and she felt lucky to have received some customized jewelry from him.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan walked to a counter and stopped, tilted her head to look at a necklace inside, and raised her hand to touch her chin.


    ¡°Do you like it?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t not or shake her head. In fact, she didn¡¯t like it, she just wondered, why were so many people obsessed with jewelry? She couldn¡¯t tell how charming that thing was.


    At that time, the assistant hurriedly said: ¡°Madam, this is a recent addition. It only costs two million when it is discounted. If you like it, you can try it on.¡±


    However, Ye Kehuan shook her hand: ¡°No, I¡¯m just looking.¡±


    Cheng Yan watched from the sidelines and couldn¡¯t help laughing. She was probably reluctant to spend money, so she just took a look but didn¡¯t buy it. However, Cheng Yan owned jewelry of this brand. Moreover, she was carrying it now, because this brand currently had a store in Jingcheng, so she brought it here for maintenance. Speaking of which, it was given to her specially by Liu Yixin on her birthday. It was a limited edition release since the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the brand. It was a subversion of the brand¡¯s previous style. It was more luxurious, and with only ten in the world, the price was high to the point of being outrageous, and most people really couldn¡¯t afford it. Even if it was her, she couldn¡¯t bear to buy it.


    Cheng Yan felt that she had to do maintenance anyway, so it was better to just take it out now to let people see it.


    Thinking about that, Cheng Yan took out a box from her bag, as well as a receipt certificate, etc., and showed it to the assistant: ¡°This is what my mother bought from you before. Can you take care of it now?¡±


    ¡°Okay, please wait a moment.¡± The assistant smiled and nodded. The photographer ran over and took a picture of the necklace.


    Ye Kehuan looked at Cheng Yan, and without much thought, went on walking with Jiang Laien. It didn¡¯t take long for Jiang Laien to stand in front of a necklace with a very unique design. It was a silver necklace with a beautiful sapphire embedded in the pendant, but because of its simple design, it did not look too exaggerated, but rather refreshing.


    ¡°The gemstone used in this necklace is an unheated Burmese sapphire of 21.23 carats. Look, its transparency is very high, the cracks are also very small, and the internal reflection color is blue-purple. If you look closely, it is very beautiful. Yes, we don¡¯t have much of this one, we just make it when someone buys it, and this sapphire still has a lot of room for appreciation, which is quite collectible,¡± the assistant saw Jiang Laien¡¯s gaze rest on it, and asked, ¡°Would you like to try it on?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at the necklace, then at Jiang Laien, and then smiled: ¡°I think it suits you well, so, try it on?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Jiang Laien was a little excited, and nodded.


    The assistant laughed. In the next second, she took out the necklace and put it on Jiang Laien. After wearing it, she covered her mouth: ¡°You are so beautiful, you are so radiant.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien was taken aback: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°Come on, see for yourself, isn¡¯t it beautiful? I didn¡¯t lie to you, did I?¡± said the assistant, pointing her finger to a mirror on the counter.


    After Jiang Laien looked at her reflection, she stroked the necklace with her hand, and the corners of her lips raised slightly. The photographer also hurried over to take close-ups. In fact, the shop also cooperated with the program group and spent money to let them advertise.


    ¡°Do you like it? I think it matches you.¡± Ye Kehuan stood behind her, put her hands on her shoulders, and slightly bent her head to look at Jiang Laien wearing the sapphire necklace in the mirror.


    ¡°I like it,¡± Jiang Laien looked at it and sighed softly: ¡°It just feels a bit expensive¡­¡±


    The Jiang family¡¯s wealth was far less than the Ye family¡¯s, but it was not bad. However, although she was not short of money, she had never been willing to spend money on jewelry. Moreover, more than ten million was not a small sum.


    ¡°But it suits you very well. Sometimes when you buy things, you should pay attention to your heart.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at her.


    ¡°Hey?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her sideways.


    Ye Kehuan chuckled, then turned around and said to the assistant: ¡°Wrap it up, I¡¯ll buy it.¡±


    ¡°What? You¡­¡± Jiang Laien touched the necklace chain, instantly stunned.


    ¡°Well, consider it a late birthday present from me.¡± Ye Kehuan smiled innocently. She had always wanted to make up to her, but she had never known how to make it up. It was rare to encounter something that Jiang Laien liked, so it must be bought.


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help but raise her hand to cover her mouth: ¡°But it is so expensive!¡±


    ¡°You are worth the price.¡± Ye Kehuan put her hands behind her, tilted her head, and a smile stretched to her eyes.


    In an instant, Fan Qiuyue and Ye Ling, who were looking at a simple bracelet, both turned their heads and looked at them. Ye Ling couldn¡¯t help but fold her arms. Were the two of them really a pair, or were they putting on a fake show for their CP? Ye Kehuan was the flesh that fell from her body, and how stingy she was in ordinary times, no one knew better than her. But now she was so generous and reasonable?


    Cheng Yan was petrified in place.


    Wha, what the hell?! Just buy it? And give it away? Ye Kehuan, Ye Ling, what is the origin of this family? They are obviously dressed so shabbily, with the total worth of everything on their body estimated to be just a few thousand yuan, so why¡­


    Cheng Yan suddenly felt a little hypoxia in her brain. How many things did the Ye family still not have revealed? In that way, wouldn¡¯t Ye Kehuan completely seize the limelight on this show? Not only the show, but even in life, once her established rich second-generation image collapsed or was overshadowed by Ye Kehuan, then she really couldn¡¯t beat Ye Kehuan.


    Just when Cheng Yan was thinking about that, the assistant suddenly came back and called her, and put all her things in front of her.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Cheng Yan asked.


    ¡°Madam, I¡¯m sorry, our shop does not provide maintenance services for non-brand jewelry.¡± The assistant said politely.


    ¡°What? It¡¯s obviously something from your store.¡± Cheng Yan didn¡¯t lash out at her. She just didn¡¯t know what she meant.


    The assistant looked at her, sighed, and said bluntly: ¡°Lady, this limited edition necklace you bought is an imitation, so our shop cannot provide  you with maintenance services.¡±


    Cheng Yan was stunned, looked at the camera operator next to her, and then at Liu Yixin, who was silent next to her, sweating profusely: ¡°Is there something wrong with this certificate? Didn¡¯t we buy it from here? Didn¡¯t we?¡±


    The assistant smiled awkwardly: ¡°The certificates are all fake.¡±


    Fan Qiuyue, Ye Ling, Jiang Laien ,and Ye Kehuan who had just received the wrapped necklace all looked at her.


    Ye Ling raised her eyebrows lightly. Funny.


    The author has something to say: Today is Ba Zonghuan!

    Cheng Yan never expected that the necklace Liu Yixin bought for her would turn out to be a fake. She was so ashamed she wanted to drown at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.


    Clenching her first, Cheng Yan couldn¡¯t hold back anymore, flushed, turned around, and pointed to the necklace to question Liu Yixin: ¡°Mom! What¡¯s going on? Why would you buy fakes?!¡±


    Liu Yixin was stunned by her, and she stubbornly said: ¡°I was watching you all the time and you said that you liked it. One of the people who knew happened to be a purchasing agent. She said that she could get the goods, so I bought from her. I didn¡¯t know it was fake--if I knew it was fake, I wouldn¡¯t have bought it.¡±


    Cheng Yan was still very angry when she heard that, but she really couldn¡¯t afford to be too harsh: ¡°Then why did you want to find a purchasing agent? Can this kind of thing be bought casually?¡±


    Liu Yixin was stunned by what she said, and didn¡¯t know how to explain it, and finally gulped, deciding to tell the truth: ¡°Because she said there would be discounts through her channels¡­¡±


    She didn¡¯t want to do that kind of thing at first, but there were some problems in her husband¡¯s company, and it wasn¡¯t in a great spot, so their funds were not enough. But, she did not want to lose face among her sisters because she couldn¡¯t afford some valuables. So she thought of this way. Speaking of which, most of the things she wore these days were not bought at a store, but bought from that friend. The reason why she bought them was because she trusted that friend very much, but she didn¡¯t expect that her friend was not a good person.


    When Cheng Yan heard her mother say such a thing, she was even more angry, and almost fainted. Didn¡¯t this just insult her even further? As a rich and beautiful lady, her mother went to buy something for a discount. Wasn¡¯t that just laughable? She didn¡¯t know what people online would think of her now.


    Her temples pounding, Cheng Yan felt herself go dizzy, and she didn¡¯t know what to do, so she ran out angrily. Liu Yixin followed and chased after her.


    It was really a good show. Ye Ling couldn¡¯t help but shake her head, then turned her head to look at Fan Qiuyue next to her: ¡°What do you think?¡¯


    Fan Qiuyue smiled and pointed to a necklace with a very simple and low-key design and said to the assistant: ¡°Just this.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan retracted her gaze from the doorway, she had no thoughts about the farce just then, and she didn¡¯t care at all. She just shrugged her shoulders and turned her head to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°Right, do you want to wear it for me now?¡±


    Jiang Laien was taken aback for a while, looked down at the bag in her hand, and then smiled: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Ye Kehuan laughed when she heard her response. After taking the box with the necklace out of the bag and opening it, Ye Kehuan stood behind Jiang Laien, tilted her head, clasped it gently, and then pulled her hair out of the necklace.


    She had to say that the design of the necklace was really wonderful. The thin chain looked simple and not exaggerated, and the sapphire was transparent and free of impurities, which made a very pure beauty. In addition, Jiang Laien had always been particularly suitable for blue, so it complimented her even more, as if it was tailor-made for her.


    ¡°You¡¯re so beautiful.¡± Ye Kehuan walked around her again and looked at the woman with curly hair and eyebrows in front of her, and she couldn¡¯t help feeling very good.


    She didn¡¯t have many thoughts about money before, and she didn¡¯t spend much money herself. Her mother would buy it for her if she lacked anything, so she didn¡¯t feel much about spending money, and she wouldn¡¯t feel anything special because of shopping. But now, she finally found the joy of spending money. She found that spending money on Jiang Laien was much more interesting and satisfying than spending money on herself.


    At that time, Fan Qiuyue came over, stood beside them, looked at the necklace on Jiang Laien¡¯s neck, looked at Ye Kehuan, and said with a smile: ¡°You are so good to Lai¡¯er. Auntie really doesn¡¯t know what to do to thank you.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan shook her head and smiled: ¡°She and I are just that close, so there is no need to talk about thanking or whatnot.¡±


    Fan Qiuyue listened, smiled, and said nothing more. She watched those two children grow up. She knew that they were playing well before, but she didn¡¯t know that they would be so close now.


    At that moment, Ye Ling walked over and put her hand on Ye Kehuan¡¯s shoulder scornfully, and looked at her sideways: ¡°My dear, you have grown up.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t understand what she meant, and was a little confused.


    ¡°It¡¯s not too early now. It¡¯s time to go back, everyone, let¡¯s go. Now that everyone is here, I have to distribute my prepared gifts to everyone.¡± However, Ye Ling stopped talking about it. Turning, without saying more, she walked out in a curvaceous manner.


    Fan Qiuyue looked at her back and couldn¡¯t help but smile, and turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Your mother is really getting younger and younger. This figure is too hot.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh while looking at her mother¡¯s back.


    The show stayed in Jingcheng for about three days, and then flew to other places without stopping. Every place they stayed was quite nice, but the pain was still to come.


    It was like that in the last season too. It was very humane at first, but when it came to the last two seasons, they were suddenly thrown into the desert. At that time, all the guests were dumbfounded. Traveling in the desert was very primitive and very tiring.


    But they had to say that those two seasons were also the two with the highest ratings, probably because everyone was tired of watching big cities and glitzy life. Suddenly they could see the suffering of the stars, and they were very happy.


    And this season, naturally, there was such a layout, but instead of going to the desert, they were going to a scenic spot that had just been developed but had not yet been officially operated. To put it nicely, it was a holiday destination, but to put it bluntly, it was just mountains and valleys. Fortunately, there was no need to experience that part yet, so everyone was still seizing the time to enjoy a temporary good and comfortable life.


    After recording two episodes, the first episode of the show had been edited and was ready to be broadcast. It could be said that their efficiency was quite high. Of course, that was also consistent with the style of this show.


    On the day the first episode was broadcast, Ye Kehuan and the others were recording the third episode.


    It was due to broadcast at night. During the day, everyone on the internet was already boiling. At that time, the heat was much higher than that of ¡°The Food is Ready¡±.


    First there was Jiang Laien on the show, and then it was that Ye Kehuan and Cheng Yan had always been at odds. Everyone was curious about what kind of dramatic things would happen if the two of them got together. The third was¡­ well, for many of them, they just wanted to scold Ye Kehuan; scold her for being a low-born dog, scold her for the hype, scold her for being a high-level chicken¡­ Among these people, some were haters of Ye Kehuan, some were fans of Cheng Yan, and many were fans of Jiang Laien.


    Although Ye Kehuan herself had many fans at the time, there were too many people that resented her, and she had been telling her fans not to fight others. Therefore, their fighting power was completely worthless, and she would constantly be attacked instead. The army was overwhelming.


    In the evening, after the program began its broadcast on time, the public gathered to watch the program before the TV. Holding melon seeds and natural mineral water in one hand, and holding their mobile phone with Weibo in the other, they kept swiping, one by one, and were very excited.


    After the intro was over, the first broadcast was of Xiao Mingguang¡¯s house. They saw that it was an ordinary two-bedroom, very simple, with Guo Yuqin in it being generous, with a very kind smile on her face all the time, so simple.


    When she stuffed the pancakes she made into her suitcase, she couldn¡¯t fit it, and took out some clothes. She continued to stuff it in, saying, ¡°I made this by myself, and I have to let them try.¡± Wei Wei. A lot of words similar to Xiao¡¯s mother being care, cute, and so on rang out instantly in the comments.


    And Xiao Mingguang¡¯s appearance at home was also very popular. He was not at all like some spoiled little brat, he also cooked breakfast for his mother, and took the initiative to help her pack her things. Everyone was saying that he was really handsome and nice, and they all expressed the hope that he would not be **** and hyped by Ye Kehuan, who had just gotten hot, and hoped that Ye Kehuan could let this child go.


    Finally, after Xiao Mingguang packed up his things, dragged out his suitcase with his mother, and said bluntly ¡°Go¡± in front of the camera, the camera switched and cut to Cheng Yan¡¯s house.


    At that moment, the netizens exploded!


    ¡°Oh my God, is this a house where humans live? Isn¡¯t it too big? My Yanyan is indeed Bai Fumei!¡±


    ¡°I might not be able to live in such a house before I die! Is there something sour in here? It smells sour!¡±


    ¡°Oh my God, it¡¯s so pretty, call me crazy for Yanyan, she really deserves to be called a rich woman!¡±


    Afterwards, the program crew entered Cheng Yan¡¯s home, and the camera showed every corner of her home, including everything on Cheng Yan¡¯s dressing table, her luxurious closet, bags, and clothes of various brands. Her shoes, accessories, and jewelry looked magnificent under the camera.


    Netizens:


    ¡°Aaawsl, many big names, oh my god, there are some of them that can cover my salary for ten years, ah, a lot of TF, my favorite lipstick!¡±


    ¡°Yanyan really cried, I¡¯m sorry, this poor man¡¯s imagination is too spicy!¡±


    ¡°Big Sister Yanyan! There is really a big difference between people and people. People born with a golden spoon can have so much. Unlike some people who can only sell their body and soul and go to the top in exchange for material things. That, of course, still might not be able to change too much, hehehe.¡±


    After Cheng Yan¡¯s house was exposed, her fans still did not forget to stop on Ye Kehuan while praising her. Ye Kehuan¡¯s fans finally couldn¡¯t help it. Someone posted on Weibo saying that that behavior was disgusting, but instead they were besieged on all sides.


    After Cheng Yan, it was Yu Mei. Because Yu Mei¡¯s house was decorated more gorgeously than Cheng Yan¡¯s, netizens couldn¡¯t help but boil again. They all said that the stars of this season were really too much. They were all rich ladies. They didn¡¯t know if Ye Kehuan could take it. After all, Ye Kehuan¡¯s family should have been the poorest among them all. It wasn¡¯t a crime to be poor, but she was poor but vain, such an awful mentality.


    After seeing Yu Mei¡¯s house, the screen immediately switched to Jiang Laien¡¯s house.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s home was very different from the previous two. Jiang Laien¡¯s home seemed to have a low-key sense of luxury, but gave a unique and fresh feeling. The most important thing was that Jiang Laien herself looked very pleasing. She appeared on the scene, dressed very simply, and revealed a kind of pleasant temperament all over her body.


    Netizens:


    ¡°I like this kind of house. It looks so comfortable and simple!¡±


    ¡°Me too, worthy of Laien, such good taste! And Laien¡¯s face is so beautiful, like a peach among watery peaches, I really want to rub it, ah~¡±


    ¡°Ah, the goddess is the goddess, I love you, and you even baked snacks and squeezed juice for the staff. She¡¯s so sweet. How can my idol be so perfect? I¡¯m going to die!¡±


    ¡°Laien¡¯s pigtails are so cute, like an eighteen-year-old girl, ah, ah, please marry me! Otherwise, I will start to make trouble!¡±


    Of course, there were still people who didn¡¯t forget to mention Ye Kehuan again, saying, ¡°It would be great if Jiang Laien didn¡¯t play with Ye Kehuan. I really can¡¯t like them playing together. After all, these sorts of things should gather in groups. Divide, what kind of pot goes with what lid¡±, and such.


    A black and black pair, there were many echoing comments below.


    After Jiang Laien¡¯s part was almost done, finally, Ye Kehuan¡¯s part was about to be ushered in. The netizens immediately turned up to twelve. To be honest, the houses of all of the other stars had actually appeared on Weibo more or less during selfies. Only Ye Kehuan¡¯s house had never appeared in the public¡¯s sight.


    Netizens:


    ¡°Ye Kehuan¡¯s house shouldn¡¯t be anything to see, right? I¡¯m more curious about what her mother looks like. If she looks so ugly, it would be embarrassing. Aren¡¯t there rumors about Ye Kehuan getting plastic surgery? Hahaha.¡±


    ¡°Ye Kehuan is a chicken who has no strength and shamelessly grabs resources!¡±


    In the next second, the picture on the screen was officially switched. The lens first gave the door a close-up, then a middle show, and finally a wide shot, showing a 360-degree panorama. European-style appearance, super-wide buildings, exaggerated fountains, huge gardens, no matter how you looked at it, it looked like a huge castle. The visual aspect was extremely shocking. Many people sitting in front of the TV eating melon seeds had their eye bulge, feeling like they were going silly.


    Then, a small kawaii arrow flew out of the screen, with a special effect subtitle: ¡°Who would live in this castle-like house?¡±


    In an instant, everyone picked up their mobile phones:


    ¡°Don¡¯t you dare tell me it¡¯s Ye Kehuan! Impossible! Maybe some other guest was temporarily hired?¡±


    ¡°Is the fifth one really Ye Kehuan¡¯s family????? My mind is messed up!¡±


    After shooting the found, the trees, the flowers, and the details of the white tables and chairs placed on the lawn, the scene of the show crew finally stopped playing the mystery, and the camera froze on the respectful person in front of the gate. The housekeeper.


    Netizens:


    ¡°I¡¯ve really seen it all now. This is the first time I saw something like this in three dimensions¡­ This is the housekeeper from various comics?!¡±


    ¡°Ah yeah, I want to slow down, is this really Ye Kehuan¡¯s house?! The housekeeper said he was the housekeeper of the Ye family, I T_T¡­ I¡­¡±


    Just when the netizens choked up and couldn¡¯t speak, the camera continued to advance inward. The servants, the prosperous retro crystal lamps, all kinds of art-like furniture, and the huge hall were exposed. Immediately afterwards, the program crew walked into the elevator, reached the third floor, walked through a long corridor, and then turned into a gym full of fitness equipment. Ye Ling appeared. Ye Ling in the lens still looked very young, with perfect body lines, a single ponytail, deep facial features with a western style, and her smile was sunny, confident, and easy-going.


    Netizens were so shocked that the melon seeds in their hands were almost lost:


    ¡°This is Ye Kehuan¡¯s mother? Oh my god, this is too young!¡±


    ¡°Ah, Ye Kehuan and her mother look alike¡­ the nose and the eyes are exactly the same, but the lips are a little thinner than her mother. It seems that it is really just genes?¡±


    ¡°No, something must have gone wrong. I still can¡¯t believe that this is Ye Kehuan¡¯s home!¡±


    Then, the screen switched to a door. On the screen, after Ye Ling knocked on the door, they saw Ye Kehuan wearing a basic set of home pajamas, with fluffy and messy hair that looked like a chicken coop appearing on the camera.


    The moment she spoke, Weibo almost exploded from the screams of netizens:


    ¡°Fuck! I can¡¯t be stimulated by this alone. I didn¡¯t go to watch the variety show with moms. Now, immediately, I must see it!¡±


    ¡°Oh my God!¡± I never thought that Ye Kehuan was so rich at home. I was wrong. I must be blind to think she is so poor! ;(¡°


    ¡°Ah, ah, Sister Ye is really amazing, it turns out that she is the winner of life in the entertainment circle, oh my God, Sister Ye is so mighty!¡±


    Immediately afterwards, Ye Kehuan¡¯s bedroom and the two rows of luxury clothes were all exposed to the camera.


    Netizens:


    ¡°Ma, it¡¯s all top luxury accessories. I don¡¯t know what words to use to express my feelings. I thought Ye Kehuan was a pawn, but she turned out to be a king!¡±


    ¡°Ah, it turns out that Ye Kehuan is the real Bai Fumei, and is so low-key. Oh my god, I love love it. If you don¡¯t like to wear famous brands, please give them to me?!¡±


    ¡°Sister Ye is too cute, just wear comfortable clothes, this sentence is really amazing!¡±


    ¡°Weak question: Sister Ye, is your family short of dogs? The kind that can eat, drink, and spend money!¡±


    After Ye Kehuan¡¯s family background was exposed, the entirety of Weibo boiled to the point of paralysis but for a few minutes. Even Ye Kehuan¡¯s Weibo fans were rising, and not long after, they surpassed the person not far apart, Cheng Yan, and under the Weibo that she reposted at the end of the welcome show, the number of comments were growing at a rate of several thousand per minute. In a short time, she had reached 100,000 comments and was still continuing to climb.


    With that effect, more people turned on the TV, basically wanting to see how rich Ye Kehuan was. At that same time, Ye Kehuan¡¯s evaluation could also be said to have become rave reviews in an instant.


    Let me ask, if the family¡¯s rascal had money, but was usually very low-key, did not have disputes with others, cooked well, looked good, and focused on acting, who would not like them?


    Inadvertently, people¡¯s mood for watching the show had changed. Originally they wanted to see how Ye Kehuan got embarrassed, but now they just wanted to watch Ye Kehuan¡¯s life.


    Slowly, the program reached the point where Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling met Cheng Yan. In fact, Cheng Yan¡¯s attitude in the show did not see to be very arrogant, at most she was just not enthusiastic, but she hid it well, and did not directly convey her disgust towards Ye Kehuan, but the audience watching at the time felt quite delicate.


    Every look and action from her, including those expressions of her and Yu Mei after they got the pancakes from Guo Yuqin, were picked up by the public for various interpretations. Some even directly expressed that they hated the artificial feeling from her even more. Some people expected her to react after learning that Ye Kehuan¡¯s family was very wealthy. After all, the reason why the various rumors about Ye Kehuan spread so quickly was because she fanned the flames from behind.


    The show hadn¡¯t ended yet, but many people on Weibo had already expressed that their favor with Cheng Yan was extinguishing bit by bit, and they wanted her fans to change their ways. It was quite amazing. Everyone had been waiting for the show for so long, but there had been such a big reversal. Who could accept it? Especially the part in the Drunken Flower Workshop, where Cheng Yan thought a guzheng was a guqin, and that Mountain Valley Flowing Stream was Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms. She had to rely on the mother and daughter of the Ye family to correct her. She was ridiculed by all groups without mercy.


    After learning that Drunken Flower Workshop was opened by the Ye family, and seeing Ye Ling¡¯s strict control over the quality of the ingredients, netizens were amazed, and praised Ye Ling one after another, saying that she was beautiful, and not to mention, very conscientious, no wonder she could be so rich.


    Looking at it all the way, the shocks that the netizens had received had been in wave after wave. Before they could digest it, the Ye family took the stage again. At the same time, perhaps because they knew that Ye Kehuan¡¯s family was rich, some of Ye Kehuan¡¯s seemingly ¡°shabby¡± behaviors became cute in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°She¡¯s so cute. It turns out that rich people don¡¯t just spend money randomly when buying things. That chicken is really ugly! It¡¯s unreasonable to sell it so expensive!¡±


    ¡°Wow, the navigation used by the rich is the same as mine, somehow I suddenly feel great!¡±


    ¡°Sister Ye eating tofu brains is so cute! Sister Ye, let me tell you, that store is not the only one in Jingcheng that sells delicious and affordable tofu brains, there is a family in the west of the city, and the owner¡¯s tofu brains are so delicious! It¡¯s also very cheap, at five bucks a bowl!¡±


    Then, the picture changed again, and it was where the two families of Ye and Jiang met.


    At that moment, netizens were shocked again:


    ¡°What?! So Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were not only old classmates but also best friends?!¡±


    ¡°Wow, all those people who cried hype should come out! In a situation like this, do you still need those sickening posts?!¡±


    ¡°Anyone who scolded Ye Kehuan for chasing headlines, come on out, what¡¯s wrong, are you all mute now?!¡±


    While marveling at that, everyone began to compare the clothes of the Cheng family¡¯s mother and daughter with that of the Jiang family¡¯s mother and daughter. They couldn¡¯t help but sigh again. Sure enough, the real rich were different. The Cheng family looked like the nouveau riche¡­ Jiang Laien dressed so neatly and refreshingly, like she was smiting Cheng Yan from a thousand miles.


    That night was destined to be a restless one. Netizens covered their little hearts one after another, and the amount of information was too large. After a while, it was really really a bit late. Just when everyone thought they could finally calm down, in the show, the group walked into the jewelry store. The program footage also deliberately gave a huge close-up of the store sign.


    The public shuddered when they saw the sparkling jewelry with extremely high prices in the store. Most people really couldn¡¯t afford those things. Especially when Jiang Laien tried on that sapphire necklace, the public almost went crazy after seeing the price through the lens, and they all lamented on how beautiful the world of the rich was.


    And when Ye Kehuan waved her hand to buy the necklace for Jiang Laien, everyone was shocked.


    ¡°Oh my God, I¡¯m going to die. President Ye is too domineering and handsome, she just waved her hand and gave her girlfriend, ah no, her friend a necklace worth ten million yuan. Officer, is this a human!?¡± 1


    ¡°I can¡¯t do it anymore, the phrase ¡®you are worth it¡¯ is really too sweet, my maiden¡¯s heart is about to burst!¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t do it anymore. Did you see the look in President Ye¡¯s eyes when she looked at Laien? She¡¯s so affectionate. Don¡¯t stop me, I¡¯m going to turn on my computer and create something for them now!¡±


    ¡°Spend big money I can!¡± 2


    When everyone was sighing at how sweet Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were, the camera switched to the conversation between Cheng Yan and the jewelry store assistant. Cheng Yan probably did not expect that all the footage that she asked the crew to cut, which were not good for her--including this video of the fake--were eventually released. She couldn¡¯t think of it, because the reason why they were released was because Ye Ling called the head of the station, so the station followed her instructions.


    Ye Ling had never been a bodhisattva. She would not deliberately punish people, but she would never allow others to touch her daughter¡¯s hair.


    Almost in an instant, Cheng Yan¡¯s Bai Fumei status fell like an avalanche, completely unstoppable. Everything she worked so hard for was in vain.


    Netizens had turned on their mocking mode:


    ¡°Actually fake, tut¡­¡±


    ¡°Well well, what about Bei Fumei and a rich foundation? It turned out to be nothing but that. She¡¯s really too shameless. She has been guiding public opinion to attack Ye Kehuan. In contrast, Ye Kehuan is really more agreeable, and from beginning to end, just ignored her.


    ¡°Aha, upstairs, take care of her discount, how could Little Cutie Ye take such a discount?¡±


    ¡°Probably, this is the difference between fake Bai Fumei and real Bai Fumei!¡±


    ¡°The funniest joke I¡¯ve heard in my life: Cheng Yan is Bai Fumei!¡±


    After the show, the names of Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien, and Cheng Yan had almost dominated the hot searches, and they did not back off for a long time.


    At the same time, #YeKehuanAndJiangLaien¡¯sWeddingDress, #YeKehuanAndJiangLaienAreAPerfectMatch, #YeFamilyMansion, #YeKehuan¡¯sBackground, #ChengYanFake, #TheLegendOfTheYeFamily, and so on also boarded the hot searches one after another.


    Almighty netizens even started memes about Ye Kehuan.


    For example, someone dug up some photos of Ye Kehuan squatting on the floor while eating cold noodles in an enamel bowl while filming, and added the caption ¡°I¡¯m poor just for fun, but you are poor for real¡±.


    In the center of a picture where Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms spread out, they cropped her house into the background, and added the caption: ¡°My family has such a big industry, just ask if you are afraid of it!¡±


    On a photo of Ye Kehuan running and laughing: ¡°You can be beautiful if you have money!¡±


    A caption under a photo of Ye Kehuan holding a rose: ¡°Give me your heart, and I will spend a lot of money on you.¡±


    ¡­


    Unknowingly, Ye Kehuan¡¯s image was broken like a sand sculpture by netizens, and everyone was searching for more pictures and sorting them into photo albums.


    In addition, the CP fans of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were even more emotional and fell even further. They also deliberately cut the scene where Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands were placed on Jiang Laien¡¯s shoulders, and they were looking at each other, and ran it in slow motion. The passage was a little ambiguous and many screamed.


    Of course, Ye Ling was also on the hot search. Even though she didn¡¯t dress up very much in the show, and she didn¡¯t dress as deliberately as other people did, she was still praised by the public as the most beautiful star mom. The pictures of her Pilates exercises were even used by some marketing accounts to write articles on how important exercises were.


    On the whole, Cheng Yan fared the worst, Xiao Mingguang was praised by some people, and Yu Mei, at best, was just treated as air. Cheng Yan received a lot of scolding. Her Weibo had been attacked in a disastrous manner.


    However, there were still some of her iron fans who were defending her, presumably that the fakes were not what she wanted to buy, and there was nothing wrong with her. Her mother¡¯s desire to save money should not be discredited, but praised. At the same time, they quibbled that Cheng Yan had never clearly stated that Ye Kehuan was the person who robbed her of her roles, and that it was all in the minds of others, and Cheng Yan shouldn¡¯t be responsible for that.


    In addition, Cheng Yan¡¯s fans also said that even if Ye Kehuan¡¯s family did not have money, Cheng Yan would not be a nouveau riche. If she were only a nouveau riche, why was Cheng Yan invited by an American rich man to attend a gala? If Cheng Yan¡¯s were just nouveau riche, how could Cheng Yan be proficient in eight languages and also play the piano? After all, the nouveau riche would not focus on cultivating those talents. 3


    While netizens were discussing the show in full swing, at that time, in a magnificent hotel in Hua City, the show was still being filmed.


    The content recorded that day was that all the members would participate in a hotel anniversary ball. Of course, they could participate in this mainly because the hotel and the program team had cooperated to advertise, so such a period of content was designed.


    There were a lot of guests participating in the dance party, and the scene was particularly grand. After all, it was a very famous hotel, and there were several dance floors. Therefore, the five groups of guests in the show arrived at the hotel after a game, and they were transformed into dress-up dolls in the hotel dressing room, so as not to make mistakes in waiting for a while, and at the same time, to make sure that they would stun everyone.


    That day¡¯s Ye Kehuan put on the clothes that her mother prepared for her. However, it was still not a dress. She didn¡¯t like wearing dresses, because she found them inconvenient, so she chose a Velentino¡¯s slim-fitting black high-definition suit. The cut was simple and generous, and her body looked straight and tall.


    She hadn¡¯t taken care of it much, but her aura instantly shot up. After tying a bow on the collar of her white shirt, Ye Ling, who was wearing a champagne backless dress, looked at her, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: ¡°Baby, this look is really suitable for you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked in the mirror, raised her hand to adjust her neckline, and then looked at her mother who wore an old-fashioned face and raised her eyebrows slightly: ¡°Really?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Ling folded her arms, her posture as graceful as a work of art.


    Ye Kehuan laughed when she heard her response, ¡°Okay.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan went to sit down again, and the makeup artist applied her makeup. Ye Ling leaned on her side and looked at her, and then at herself in the mirror, only to feel perfect.


    Cheng Yan and Liu Yixin were also in that room, and they glanced at Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling from time to time with complicated emotions in their eyes, along with a lot of jealousy and envy. Because, that day¡¯s Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling seemed to be too glamorous, and they felt that there were no problems with shooting a fashion magazine like that.


    Cheng Yan looked at them, resisting her displeasure, and suddenly tightened the strap behind her mother: ¡°Mom, tighten your abdomen!¡±


    Liu Yixin said ¡°Ouch!¡±, and she was a little breathless.


    Ye Kehuan and Ye Ling raised their eyebrows, and after everything was settled, they left the room holding each other¡¯s arms.


    After walking out of the room and standing on the escalator, the two looked down together, and saw that a lot of guests had already arrived below, and they were all dressed very decently.


    When someone below looked up and saw Ye Ling and Ye Kehuan, they showed a happy expression.


    ¡°It¡¯s Mrs. Ye!¡± They didn¡¯t know who shouted, but one after another, several people looked up at them.


    Ye Kehuan retracted her gaze, looked at Ye Ling, tilted her head slightly, and made a ¡°please¡± gesture. Ye Ling pursed her lips and smiled, putting one hand on her daughter¡¯s arm, and one hand gently lifting her dress, and walked down gracefully. The lights of the hotel hit them, making them look more exquisite and charming, as if they were exuding a galaxy-like bright light.


    The moment they went down, people immediately surrounded them with wine glasses. Ye Ling took a glass of wine from the tray of the waiter next to her and touched it lightly: ¡°Cheers.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked sideways at her mother¡¯s profile and couldn¡¯t help but smile. Her mother was really charming. No wonder her father, even if he had lived with Ye Ling for nearly 30 years, was still afraid that others would covet his wife.


    When Ye Ling was talking to someone, Ye Kehuan inadvertently looked up and saw Jiang Laien and Fan Qiuyue also appearing on the stairs.


    That day¡¯s Jiang Laien was wearing a long, silver-gray one-shouldered dress. The fabric seemed to be covered with stars, and the luxurious luster was glowing like the night sky. The fabric was light, the dress was elegant, and her skin was fair, with her hair like seaweed. Her lips were red and her teeth were white, like a princess walking out of a fairy tale. At that moment, she seemed to be looking for something. While walking, her gaze kept facing downwards, and her little confused look seemed even more lovely.


    Upon seeing that, Ye Kehuan smiled and turned her head to say a few words to Ye Ling and the guests in front of her, and then walked towards the stairs. The camera operator also ran over quickly.


    ¡°Laien.¡± Standing at the foot of the stairs, Ye Kehuan called her softly.


    When Jiang Laien her her words, she immediately turned her eyes, and then smiled: ¡°I was just looking for you just now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her and leaned over slightly: ¡°Me too.¡±


    ¡°Okay, you two go play, I¡¯ll find Sister Ling.¡± Seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s arrival, Fan Qiuyue left after a few words.


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily, and then stretched out her hand to Jiang Laien.


    When Jiang Laien saw that, she put her hand in her palm, and after walking down the last step, the two of them hooked their arms and walked towards Ye Ling.


    At the same time, Cheng Yan and Liu Yixin also came down from above. Liu Yixin¡¯s dress didn¡¯t fit very well, but because she thought it looked more expensive, she still brought it, but she was panicked. Cheng Yan was a little impatient and wanted to roll her eyes, but because of the camera there, she couldn¡¯t. In short, the whole process was almost suffocating.


    She didn¡¯t know what the show looked like after it was broadcast, because she had been busy all day. She really wanted to look at her phone then, but it was impossible. Her phone wasn¡¯t even on her body. Her mind was messy and, especially, upset.


    After going down, Cheng Yan and Liu Yixin looked around and found that they knew no one, so they had to walk towards Ye Kehuan, so at least they would not just stand there awkwardly.


    But after standing next to Ye Kehuan, Cheng Yan only saw Ye Ling, Ye Kehuan, and Jiang Laien were all talking to people. The other party was a foreigner. They were talking in a whisper, and it didn¡¯t sound like English. She didn¡¯t know who they were. She didn¡¯t understand what they said. They were all smiling, but Cheng Yan was dumbfounded.


    At that moment, Guo Yuqin suddenly came over and pulled Cheng Yan¡¯s arm.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Cheng Yan asked, turning around.


    ¡°Yanyan, what does he mean? I don¡¯t understand. I heard that you speak eight languages. Can you help but translate?¡± Guo Yuqin smiled embarrassedly, and pointed to the person standing next to her at that moment. A foreigner.


    Cheng Yan felt her mind go blank, and the corners of her lips were about to twitch: ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    So, the foreigner looked at her and talked a lot.


    Cheng Yan¡¯s entire mind was instantly stuck. The so-called eight languages were nothing more than her hype, because that would make her seem very powerful. But in fact, she didn¡¯t even speak English very well, let alone other languages.


    ¡°What does he mean?¡± Guo Yuqin asked Cheng an.


    ¡°He, he meant¡­¡± Cheng Yan pursed her lips and squeezed her fingers. She was about to draw blood from her lips.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan turned around, looked at Guo Yuqin, and said in a low voice: ¡°He said that he just saw you standing with Xiao Mingguang, so he came to you, because his daughter loves Chinese culture very much, and likes Xiao Mingguang¡¯s dances and songs a lot. If possible, he wants to ask for an autograph for his daughter.¡±


    After listening, Guo Yuqin suddenly smiled at the other: ¡°Okay, okay, he¡¯ll be here soon!¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan laughed and looked at the foreigner again: ¡°§°§ß§ã§Ö§Û§é§Ñ§ã§á§â§Ú§Õ§×§ä.¡± [He¡¯s coming now.]


    The foreigner nodded, looked at Cheng Yan, then looked at Ye Kehuan, and finally smiled and said something in English: ¡°Thanku.¡±


    After the music started, Ye Kehuan led Jiang Laien through the crowd gracefully and walked towards the center. Cheng Yan stood on the spot, looking at Ye Kehuan¡¯s back, her teeth clenched tightly, and her eyes seemed to be about to gouge out two holes in her back.


    The author has something to say: I¡¯m so tired, my hands are numb, on the Nth day of the ten thousandths, praise me!


    TL/N


    1 - A reference to what I remember being the most popular genre of novel in China, the domineering CEO.


    2 - Cameo by Yoda.


    3 - Changed a passage here, but I think you deserve the original, because it¡¯s very funny. The machine translation of one line: ¡°...why was Cheng Yan invited by an American rich man to attend a pajama party?¡± Now, this is obviously not what it meant, but I find the idea very wholesome, that the elite of the world gather together for slumber parties and have pillow fights while discussing who has a crush on who.

 CH 60

    After the end of the day¡¯s activities, everyone talked and laughed back to the small villa, relieving the fatigue of the day, and prepared to rest.


    After Cheng Yan returned to her room, she turned on her mobile phone without saying anything to check the status of the show after it was broadcast. It didn¡¯t matter. She was shocked when she saw that she was basically scolded on the Internet by everyone, and the line of defense of her fans almost collapsed. Even if there were some fans on Weibo who were scanning their screens in an organized and regular manner, some passersby were not. Neutralizing remarks were suppressed, and the speed of their counters were too slow. Every second, some new comments mocking her were posted, really hateful.


    ¡°Are you stupid? You have the face to say what other people do for money? As a public figure, spreading such rumors, are you really a star?¡±


    ¡°I used to like you a lot. My phone wallpaper lock screen and all kinds of avatars were all you, but it¡¯s really a pity that I can¡¯t like you anymore. You can do it yourself, goodbye.¡±


    ¡°The day before yesterday, I had a tattoo of you. Now I really regret that to my death. I guess I¡¯m blind. I poked myself.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t you really want to be on the show? Haven¡¯t you been complaining about Ye Kehuan for taking your opportunities? Now that you are on the show, how are you feeling? Isn¡¯t the drama of someone collapsing nice?¡±


    ¡­


    Netizens even began to talk about the moisture content in her luxury goods, wondering whether they were really genuine. She had no warning, and she was shocked. It turned out that the necklace that Liu Yixin wore on the show was also a fake, because it had one more petal than the original one.


    The discovery immediately caused a wave of ridicule, and some even said that they would never buy products supported by her account again. After all, what if it was a fake? As a result, some people who had purchased some before posted the pictures of the transaction records on the Internet, inviting people to verify the authenticity. As a result, it was found in the appraisal that a bottle of perfume was also a copycat.


    In a short period of time, Cheng Yan was dubbed the title of ¡°Princess of Fakes¡±, and anyone could step on her and laugh.


    Cheng Yan looked at those comments, and her panic was like a huge wave, engulfing her whole body. She had never experienced such a thing before. She had always lived a life of a moon surrounded by stars. How could she have experienced such a thing?


    With trembling fingers, Cheng Yan put on her earphones and started watching the first episode, fast-forwarding the whole process, and only stopped to take a closer look when the camera came to her. After a glance, her whole face was almost white with rage. She clearly to program group to delete those shots, and even promised to give them money, but they still broadcasted the scenes regardless.


    Clenching her fist, Cheng Yan clicked on those hot searches about Ye Kehuan, and saw that the whole of Weibo were talking about her, seeming to be teasing, but in fact they were expressing their likes.


    Cheng Yan¡¯s mentality was completely broken at that time. Obviously she was far ahead of Ye Kehuan, whether it was in acting, popularity, or word of mouth, but why was it like that now? Looking at Ye Kehuan¡¯s Weibo homepage, looking at the praises sung about Ye Kehuan, Cheng Yan was really jealous and felt her heart bleed.


    Her agent, Liu Neng, sent her a lot of news, but she didn¡¯t check it. She just got red eyes and started editing her Weibo content: ¡°Because you are a public figure, you should bear online violence? When you attack a person online, have you ever considered whether what you are doing is evil?¡±


    However, after Cheng Yan¡¯s Weibo that seemed reasonable was posted, no one bought it at all.


    ¡°You said that we are violent, but when you guided your fans to be violent towards Ye Kehuan, did you ever consider if what you were doing was evil? Have you ever considered Ye Kehuan¡¯s mood?¡±


    ¡°Most people are just mocking you, knowing that you don¡¯t have the skills, but you still have your history towards Ye Kehuan and selling fake goods. Isn¡¯t that true? Now it¡¯s cyber violence? You dare to put it like that, huh?¡±


    ¡°When you were violating others on the Internet, you felt so at ease. When you are mocked by a few netizens, you become glass-hearted? You sure are an interesting little ****.¡±


    ¡°The funniest joke I heard today: Cyber violence leader rejects cyber violence.¡±


    ¡­


    When Cheng Yan saw that everyone was continuing to mock her in unison, she became angry and wanted to smash everything in the house to pieces, but she still controlled it. However, after a while, she finally couldn¡¯t help it, got up suddenly from the bed, opened the cabinet, took out all her clothes inside, and threw them into her opened suitcase.


    Liu Yixin, who had just taken a show, came out of the bathroom and looked at her in amazement: ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    Cheng Yan sniffled and continued to fold her clothes: ¡°I¡¯m not recording anymore.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Liu Yixin was stunned, unable to comprehend.


    ¡°I said, I don¡¯t want to record that **** bad show!¡± Cheng Yan turned to look at her, shouted hoarsely at her, then closed her suitcase, put on her jacket, and went to leave with her suitcase.


    ¡°But, the liquidated damages¡­¡± Liu Yixin ran in front of her to stop her.


    ¡°Our Cheng family can¡¯t even afford this little money?! What are you worried about?!¡± When Cheng Yan heard Liu Yixin¡¯s worry about money, it ignited the anger within her instantly, and she ignored the fact that there were still many cameras in the room filming. Pulling her suitcase, she pushed Liu Yixin aside and walked out.


    Cheng Yan was crying along the way, her tears falling in a stream, her nose was too red, and when she went down the stairs, she was so blind that she nearly fell. She really couldn¡¯t stay any longer. At that moment, she just wanted to quickly escape from there, escape from it all, without thinking about the consequences.


    After hearing the movement, the rest of the house opened their doors and looked at her. They saw that Cheng Yan had left the house and the door was slammed shut.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with her?¡± Ye Ling looked at Liu Yixin who was standing on the stairs.


    ¡°She¡¯s not recording anymore.¡± Liu Yixin turned her head and glanced at Ye Ling, unable to tell what kind of look she had, and then returned to her room and began to pack things up.


    ¡°Cheng Yan left?¡± At the same time, Li Yaolin and Yu Mei walked to the corridor.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Ling nodded and smiled, ¡°Maybe she¡¯s just too tired. I¡¯m also a little tired. I¡¯ll go to bed first. See you tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°Good night.¡± Li Yaolin looked at Ye Ling up and down until she watched Ye Ling return to her room, before going back to theirs. That Ye Ling really looked like a vixen, pretending to be tender at a young age.


    After Yu Mei returned to bed, she flipped through everyone¡¯s comments on the Internet, clicked on a screenshot of Jiang Laien, and her lips tightened involuntarily.


    That was the case every time, as long as Jiang Laien was there, everyone¡¯s eyes would be firmly attracted by her, and then no one would pay attention to her anymore. That was the case when they made that movie back then. She was obviously the protagonist, but she was overtaken by a supporting role, and that was the case now. With her on the show, everyone¡¯s attention was fixed on her, and not even a few people discussed Yu Mei. Her own existence seemed to be a decoration, or just air.


    Thinking of that, Yu Mei closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. Obviously her family was similar to Jiang Laien¡¯s, and her appearance was not bad, and she was even redder than her at first, but why did she become like this later?


    Just because Jiang Laien had a pleasing face? Was it just because Jiang Laien looked like a bodhisattva without fighting or grabbing? They were all talking about her unique style, but the entertainment industry was created by many people, didn¡¯t they know?


    Seeing that she was twenty-seven or twenty-eight, but still mixed up like this, Yu Mei was really unwilling. This show was a great opportunity to stand up. After all, many people who had passed out of public view relied on reality shows to stand up. She definitely couldn¡¯t keep going as she was, she had to do something that would attract the public¡¯s attention. However, she definitely couldn¡¯t show off her wealth like Cheng Yan, doing so would be an instant loss. There was Ye Kehuan on the show; who could be richer than her?


    After thinking about it, Yu Mei thought of a way. That was, to create a pleasing character, one that was more pleasing than Jiang Laien, and one that would be fully remembered by the public. For example, a talented woman, or filial one, or kind, or¡­


    After thinking about it, Yu Mei had some ideas.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan was in her room.


    After Ye Kehuan took a shower and lay her head down, she habitually read Weibo. Swiping, Ye Kehuan turned over and looked at Ye Ling: ¡°Mom, have you been online?¡±


    Ye Ling, who was doing a plank on her bed, turned her head to look at her upon hearing that, ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡±


    ¡°Netizens are praising you as the goddess of frozen age.¡± Ye Kehuan also made a plank like her.


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Ling smiled happily, and raised her eyebrows. ¡°Netizens really have insights.¡±


    Ye Kehuan glanced at her, smiled, and shook her head. If it were not her mother, she really wanted to retort with ¡°shameless¡±. No longer doing a plank, Ye Kehuan lay back on the bed, crossed her legs carelessly, and continued to look at her phone.


    Ye Kehuan was stunned after seeing the pile of memes that netizens made of her. Aside from the laughter, she was a little worried that everyone¡¯s focus on her would be off the right track. In the future, would everyone only care about the gossip about her home, and not pay attention to her acting skills?


    That was until Ye Kehuan swiped and read a letter from a diehard fan to herself on Weibo, and her eyes went a little red.


    Seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s sudden silence, Ye Ling turned to look at her and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡±


    ¡°I read a letter written by a fan on Weibo.¡± Ye Kehuan squeezed her chin and whispered.


    ¡°Let¡¯s listen to it?¡± Ye Ling lay on her side, slowly raising her leg into the air, and then put it down.


    Ye Kehuan cleared her throat after hearing her words, ¡°To my dear Miss Ye Kehuan. I am considered an old iron fan of yours. I have been paying attention since you first debuted. Although others have always misunderstood and attack you, and there are a lot of them, and they have also mocked my aesthetics and taste because my idol is you, I haven¡¯t changed my love and expectations of you. After those silly things finally saw you today, I broke down. I was so happy, so happy that I was rolling in bed! Great, please continue to work hard in the future, try to be a good actor, and work hard to realize your dreams. Please continue to shine!¡±


    After reading that paragraph, Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were a little moist, and she said to herself: ¡°I will definitely work hard, and I will definitely not let down your expectations of me.¡±


    After hearing that, Ye Ling stopped the exercise she was doing, looked at her thoughtfully, and finally exhaled and lay down: ¡°It seems that you really love this job. No matter how much we objected.¡±


    Ye Kehuan heard her words and turned to look at her: ¡°Of course.¡±


    ¡°Then go for it. I¡¯ll talk to your dad; we won¡¯t stop you anymore.¡± Ye Ling closed her eyes.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan smiled and nodded vigorously: ¡°Yeah!¡±


    After a while, Ye Kehuan swiped enough on Weibo, and then tapped on Jiang Laien¡¯s chat box: ¡°Are you asleep?¡±


    After a moment, Jiang Laien replied: ¡°I just laid down and was about to send you a message.¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled slightly, and she turned over, putting her back to Ye Ling: ¡°Why, miss me?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°I see you every day. What do you want to talk about?¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at it, smiled, and continued typing: ¡°It¡¯s different. This is different from out two-person would, isn¡¯t it? For example, if there are only the two of us, we can do something that we can¡¯t do when we are with everyone.¡±


    After reading the message from Ye Kehuan, Jiang Laien on the other side of the phone clenched her teeth, ¡°Isn¡¯t there a single serious thing in your mind?¡±


    Ye Kehuan continued to smile: ¡°Then you can talk about if, what am I saying, where do Iook dishonest?¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°? Do you want me to say it? You said it yourself, you want to do something that you can¡¯t do when we are with everyone¡­¡±


    Looking at her words, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but imagine her little arrogant and shy appearance, so her mood of wanting to tease her became even stronger.


    ¡°Then what do you think I want to do that I can¡¯t do?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s smile widened after sending it over.


    Jiang Laien: ¡°That kind of thing¡­¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her words and her lips became dry inexplicably: ¡°Yeah, I really want to do that with you. I want to see you under me¡­¡±


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you sleeping? Who are you talking to?¡± However, while Ye Kehuan was still typing, Ye Ling suddenly half propped up and patted her on the shoulder.


    Ye Kehuan was shocked instantly, the phone fell directly onto the bed, and then she turned around to look at Ye Ling with a horrified expression: ¡°Mom, what are you doing, scaring me to death!¡±


    Ye Ling looked at her and raised her eyebrows: ¡°You usually don¡¯t do anything wrong, and you¡¯re not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. What are you so nervous about?¡±


    Ye Kehuan coughed: ¡°You appeared so suddenly, who wouldn¡¯t be scared?¡±


    ¡°Really?¡± Ye Ling looked at her with interest, glanced at her phone, and then retreated again, ¡°Okay, I won¡¯t talk to you. I¡¯m going to sleep, turn off the lights.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Ling flipped the light off.


    Ye Kehuan was holding her phone and staring at the ceiling in the darkness. After a long sigh of relief, she sent a message to Jiang Laien: ¡°My mother suddenly appeared and urged me to go to sleep. I was scared to death. Then, I will go to sleep first, see you tomorrow.¡±


    Jiang Laien: ¡°Okay, see you tomorrow.¡±


    Putting down her phone, Ye Kehuan took a deep breath, turned her head, and looked at Ye Ling, who was lying next to her. After a long while, she turned her head again. Recently, she suddenly wanted to come out. She just didn¡¯t know if the two Bodhisattvas in her family would accept her liking girls.


    However, she really didn¡¯t want to hide in the dark with Jiang Laien all her life. She wanted to be together and upright.


    Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan smiled again.


    At that moment, Ye Ling opened her eyes, quietly observing her daughter, who couldn¡¯t fall asleep over and over, in the dark, and began to recall all the appearances of her daughter when she was with Jiang Laien. Was she worried? But she had never seen Ye Kehuan look at others with such eyes, whether it was a man or woman. However, she had seen such a look in other people¡¯s eyes, and she had seen Ye Kehuan¡¯s father, Ye Bingquan. When Ye Bingquan looked at her, he always had that look in his eyes.


    Good girl, falling in love so quickly, but not even talking to her mother about it. Furthermore, it was a girl? Ye Ling closed her eyes and let out another sigh. Although she really liked Jiang Laien, she still felt a little worried.


    Because Cheng Yan insisted on quitting the recording of the show, after the communication with the program group failed, the group decided to let her go. The next trip would be completed by the four groups of families traveling together.


    After Cheng Yan¡¯s withdrawal from the show was leaked by the staff, a storm once again set off. However, most people were scolding her glass heart for having no sense of responsibility. Ye Ling liked to hear about it, but she really didn¡¯t expect Cheng Yan to be so stupid. At that kind of time, it was better to keep recording without saying a word, and then create a new good image for herself. However, she preferred to just go away. With that kind of temperament, it seemed that she was not long for the entertainment industry.


    In fact, Ye Ling¡¯s idea was correct. After the second episode was broadcast, Cheng Yan was beaten into a pig¡¯s head. Originally, her impression in the hearts of the public had been reduced to zero. After being exposed as a fraud in the eight languages department, her temper was exposed to everyone, and she even left the show in anger. Her impression with the public swiftly reached the negatives.


    Even her little friends who used to play with her all kept away from her like a rabid animal, for fear they would be bitten by her poor reputation. Even Yu Mei didn¡¯t say anything for her, for fear of her own situation worsening.


    At the same time, her former assistant who had always hated her for a long time also ran out and started a blog, accusing her of her arrogance and snobbery, and not treating the poor as people. As a result, Cheng Yan was hated by the public even more, and some people even said that they would never watch a TV series starring her again.


    On the contrary, the popularity and praise of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were rising steadily. Everyone was licking their CP, looking for various loving interactions on the show, and making some animations go viral. Especially the scene of the two dancing, making netizens shout so sweet, this girls¡¯ heart is about to explode. The Jiang Ye CP was locked in by the public in that manner.


    In late March, after recording two more episodes, the group packed up and rushed to another city--Chucheng.


    Perhaps the most famous part of this city was its food. It didn¡¯t have many attractions. Everyone came there to eat, and all kinds of tourist strategies focused on eating. Since it was a show, everyone would first go to a restaurant that cooperated with the program group to enjoy the food.


    After arriving in Chucheng, and unpacking in their new residence, it was almost time for dinner, so the four groups of families went to the ¡°Heise¡± restaurant to enjoy local dishes.


    The decoration of the restaurant was very interesting. There were lotus leaves and lotuses everywhere, and although they were fake flowers, they were still very charming visually. The group of people walked to a round table and took their seats. After ordering a few dishes on the recommendations of the clerk, they chatted with each other.


    Chucheng was a magical place. It was cold everywhere else at that time, but it was already a bit hot there, and two layers could not be worn, so you had to wear a single layer or short sleeves.


    Before long, a kid wearing a red dress and braids suddenly ran over there with a small notebook and a pencil. After standing next to Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, she said: ¡°Sister Ye, Sister Jiang, I like you, can you sign for me?¡±


    The child¡¯s cheeks were immature and milky, making her look extremely cute. Everyone was amused by her.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Without saying anything, Ye Kehuan took her pencil, signed her big name in the notebook, and handed it to Jiang Laien.


    ¡°How old are you this year?¡± Jiang Laien asked her when signing.


    ¡°Six years old!¡± The little girl stretched out six fingers, looking like a soft little steamed bun.


    ¡°You¡¯re so cute.¡± After Jiang Laien handed the notebook back to her, she reached out and touched her little head.


    ¡°I¡¯m not cute, you are cute, you are a little fairy!¡± The kid smiled with bright eyes, and blocked half of her face with the notebook.


    In an instant, everyone at the table laughed, except for Yu Mei.


    ¡°Haha, if she is a little fairy, what about me?¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head and looked at her, pointing her finger to her chest.


    The little girl rolled her eyes and continued to smile: ¡°You are also a little fairy. Only a little fairy and a little fairy can be together.¡±


    What a childish speech. Everyone was overwhelmed with joy in an instant. Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien, and the two couldn¡¯t help but lower their heads with a smile.


    At that time, the little girl ran to Xiao Mingguang: ¡°Big brother, can you also sign for me?¡±


    Xiao Mingguang listened, showing a very sunny smile, and took the pencil from her hand: ¡°Okay.¡±


    After the little girl got the autograph, she sent him a kiss, which made everyone laugh again. Finally, the little girl walked to Yu Mei. Yu Mei, whose face had been stiff, became energetic in an instant, and she was even ready to sign for her. However, what she didn¡¯t expect was that the little girl didn¡¯t make a stop, and just hopped around her to find her mother with the notebook in her arms.


    In other words, among the celebrities at the table, everyone else was asked for an autograph by the little girl, and only one was left behind. Yu Mei looked at the kid¡¯s back and held her breath in her heart. She was extremely uncomfortable and didn¡¯t know what to do.


    She was really stimulated. She was also in the entertainment industry. Even Xiao Mingguang had people asking for autographs, but she was regarded as air, so she was ignored. Who could bear it?


    The people at the dinner didn¡¯t know that Yu Mei was already so angry that she was about to explode, and then they went to the next chat topic. Inexplicably, Guo Yuqin talked about her son¡¯s feelings, saying that one of the downsides of her son¡¯s business was that he had no time to fall in love. His peers were all married at the time, but her son would be single for the foreseeable future.


    After listening, Li Yaolin laughed: ¡°No, so is my daughter. She is devoted to her career and has no time to fall in love. There seems to be nothing in her heart that can be compared with her career, such as dating. She¡¯s never sad. She¡¯s different about filming from other things. I¡¯ve seen it a lot. Even if she is sick or tired to death, she will keep filming with just willpower.¡±


    On the surface, Li Yaolin¡¯s remarks seemed to be complaining about her daughter¡¯s lack of prospects, but it was in fact an expression of how hard her daughter worked on acting.


    Yu Mei was very satisfied with her mother¡¯s remarks. In that way, people across the country would know that she was a very dedicated actress. Although she rarely did that kind of thing.


    Fan Qiuyue listened and said with a smile: ¡°It¡¯s good to work hard, but the body is still important. After all, your body is your capital. If you really can¡¯t stand it, it¡¯s good to take a rest. If you refill your energy, you will have more energy to film more.¡±


    Yu Mei listened and smiled gracefully: ¡°There is no other option. In order to complete the task, many times I have had to work hard. In my life, work is always first. I can¡¯t let the whole crew wait for me. I may not be as talented as Laien, and my resources and popularity are not as good, so I can only work harder.¡±


    That passage seemed to be very good, and Jiang Laien was also praised. But in fact, she was stepping on Jiang Laien, implying that she worked harder than her, and implied that Jiang Laien was also much luckier than her.


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help raising her eyebrows when she heard that. Yu Mei, work hard? Why didn¡¯t she remember it? She just remembered that every time she worked with her, she liked to have little temper tantrums. The plot there was not satisfying and she didn¡¯t want to film, or the plot here was not satisfying and it needed to be changed. The weather was too hot, and in order to avoid heatstroke, she needed to take a break¡­ That was really¡­ Did you work hard, or does everyone else remember it wrongly?


    The be honest, Jiang Laien had a blacklist on filming with Yu Mei.


    Jiang Laien would never forget the appearance of Yu Mei frequently making low-level mistakes during the second time they cooperated when filming a rival scene. She was visiting her aunt in that scene, and Yu Mei pushed her into a pond. Yu Mei made the simple action countless times. After the scene was finally filmed, she got sick.


    ¡°Meimei¡¯s mood is not difficult to understand. It¡¯s quite right. Which of these children here doesn¡¯t fight, right? She¡¯s not the only one. I heard Mingguang spent all his time for sleep and food rehearsing a performance last year, and finally fainted. He was sent to the hospital. The doctor advised him to rest more. After he woke up, he went to rehearsal again. I remember that after the performance, he went to the hospital again immediately after stepping off the stage, right?¡± Ye Ling curled her lips and looked towards him with a smile.


    After listening, Xiao Mingguang smiled and shook his hand: ¡®Because you don¡¯t want to drag everyone down just because you couldn¡¯t stand up. It¡¯s nothing.¡±


    ¡°You,¡± Ye Ling smiled and pointed at him, ¡°are really humble.¡±


    Before Ye Ling came to participate on the show, it could be said that she got to know everyone.


    After that, Ye Ling looked at Jiang Laien again: ¡°And Laien also, for the purpose of filming, in order to better perform a terminally ill person, did not eat much for a whole month, and got far too skinny. She was sent to the hospital for nutrient solutions and almost got anorexia, right?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she smiled: ¡°In fact, it wasn¡¯t a big deal. However, if you want to lose weight in reality, don¡¯t do it like that.¡±


    Ye Ling smiled again: ¡°They are all humble children.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Ling looked at Li Yaolin and Yu Mei: ¡°So, I really understand. After all, everyone is like this.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Ling smiled.


    Looking at Ye Ling, Yu Mei felt suffocated for a moment. She was trying to make an image, and Ye Ling saying that destroyed her uniqueness in an instant, and she abruptly turned things into everyone¡¯s hard work, nothing for her.


    ¡°Yes, yes, haha.¡± Yu Mei smiled awkwardly while holding the cup of tea in front of her.


    ¡°Yes, Kehuan also works very hard. It is obvious that her family is powerful, but she doesn¡¯t borrow its stripes, and she fights with her own fists. Even if she is mocked, she has no complaints at all, and she continues to work hard. Obviously, she could rely on the money at home to select good scripts and bring funds to the group, and pave the way for herself, but she did not. It¡¯s really rare.¡± At that time, Fan Qiuyue also added with a smile. 1


    On the surface, they were just chatting, but in fact, there was a palace drama being staged there.


    Yu Mei knew that she was mocking her, saying that she had bought her way onto a certain team. Although no one knew about that, the Jiang family knew about it because she had squeezed out the role of Jiang Laien. Thinking of that, Yu Mei¡¯s face went green then white, but she calmed down quickly, and squeezed a reply from her lips: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°I think that being an actor mainly depends on your strength. If you aren¡¯t strong, even if you have enough famous names, you will still wallow in the shallows.¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s words were not meant for Yu Mei, just her true thoughts, but she accidentally stepped on Yu Mei¡¯s achilles'' heel. Especially the phrase ¡°wallowing in mediocrity¡±. In order to make herself popular, Yu Mei could be said to have spent a lot of money over the years, and even used money to forge plastic friendships with a group of others with small traffic in the circle, in order to keep up with their popularity when necessary, and at the same time, she was in a lot of dramas and show, but she didn¡¯t know why, they never made a splash, and people only went to her Weibo to watch her show off her wealth.


    Until a few days later, when she saw some critics¡¯ commentary on herself in a post, saying that she had no defining characteristics, moderate beauty, and mediocre acting skills, which made  people feel that she would never be too popular. At that time, she was really about to explode.


    ¡°Yes.¡± After pulling at the corner of her lips, Yu Mei finally clenched out another reply.


    ¡°Wow, the food is finally up, it¡¯s ready, come on, chatting can come later, but I am starving to death!¡± At that time, the waiter came in with a tray and put the dishes on the table one by one. Guo Yuqin picked up her chopsticks.


    ¡°The dishes in this restaurant look pretty good.¡± Ye Ling looked around the table, and saw that the dishes were delicious in color and fragrance, which made people salivate.


    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s so hearty. It looks like I really have more appetite when it isn¡¯t western food!¡± Guo Yuqin was really not used to western food, feeling it was dull and tasteless. She couldn¡¯t taste the spice, and it felt stinky.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s eat, otherwise, it will be cold later.¡± Fan Qiuyue smiled.


    When Jiang Laien picked up a piece of fish, Guo Yuqin suddenly smiled and opened her mouth: ¡°I suddenly remember the show that Kehuan participated in. Kehuan is also very good at cooking. I rewatched that whole show from beginning to end. I saw it all, and I¡¯d really like to try it out.¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan smiled and said, ¡°I am just an amateur, and nothing more than that.¡±


    Guo Yuqin put a piece of beef into her bowl, and continued to smile: ¡°What¡¯s the matter, you are not a chef, and you are already very good. These children, one is lazier than the other. Let alone cooking, many people can¡¯t even boil water to cook noodles and just burn the bottom of the pot. Children like you are really rare.¡±


    ¡°Yes, Kehuan is really amazing. I can¡¯t do it at all. The things I make are just barely enough to eat. They are not delicious at all.¡± Jiang Laien sighed along the way and looked at Ye Kehuan. Her eyes were also full of pride.


    Seeing that the focus had shifted to Ye Kehuan again, Yu Mei, in order to improve her sense of presence and improve her image, immediately said: ¡°In fact, cooking is something that is pretty easy to do. It just takes a lot of practice to master the skills.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard her words, she smiled briefly: ¡°Yes, but I may not be talented, so I can only cook some small dishes, and they are not delicious.¡±


    ¡°Come slowly. I didn¡¯t know anything before, but after careful study, I found that it was actually quite simple.¡± Yu Mei smiled slightly.


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡®It seems that your cooking skills should be good?¡±


    Yu Mei raised her hand and gently lifted her hair: ¡°It¡¯s okay, generally, it¡¯s just enough for a single meal.¡±


    After listening to their conversation, Guo Yuqin praised Yu Mei again: ¡°That¡¯s really rare. People from family backgrounds like you and Kehuan obviously don¡¯t have to do it yourself.¡±


    When Yu Mei heard Guo Yuqin¡¯s praise, she laughed: ¡°Actually, sometimes if our chef Auntie is too busy, I will help make things together. In my heart, being rich is not a privilege. Doing it yourself is a real privilege. It¡¯s fun. It would be too boring to just open your mouth and have dinner delivered. Moreover, cooking is a thing that can cultivate sentiment, and it can also encourage a person to calm down complicated thoughts and figure things out. It really helps my mind.¡±


    Yu Mei¡¯s remarks made it seem like she not only possessed skills, but also contained a lot of connotations.


    Guo Yuqin felt that she was speaking profoundly and reasonably, and she couldn¡¯t help raising her hand to applaud her: ¡°Well said! People who are educated really speak differently!¡±


    ¡°Where, I just say what I feel.¡± Yu Mei smiled. The personal setting for being able to cook had been established.


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t say much, just put a piece of spare rib into her mother¡¯s bowl, and then asked her if she would like to drink soup.


    Ye Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, and did not speak, but ate food quietly.


    Ye Kehuan looked at Yu Mei, tilted her head, picked up her chopsticks, and reached out to a dish on a plate.


    Chucheng was not a big city, and there were not many scenic spots. Basically, it was just eating. Therefore, the group only recorded for three days, took photos of a few restaurants, and ate some street food, and then it was time to enter the next link.


    A frightening link, because, at the next stop, they would never be able to live the same kind of life with ¡°good clothes and jade food¡±. In the next stop, they would be taken to a scenic spot that had not been officially opened to the public, and even the farmhouses were in their preparatory stage.


    And where they were going, deep in the mountains, had no traffic, no skyscrapers, no takeaways, and no five-star hotels. There, it was still a remote area, and there was no wireless network. Let alone 4G, even the 2G was very unstable, and could cut out at any time. The above information was currently being disclosed by the program group. Because it was special, the program group held a small meeting for everyone, so that everyone could buy some necessary things, such as mosquito repellent.


    When the program staff finished speaking, everyone except Guo Yuqin was stunned. After all, only Guo Yuqin had suffered. Guo Yuqin lived in the country before, and Xiao Mingguang had also spent several years in the mountains when he was a child. But the others were all born and raised in the city, and they were well-off families and very wealthy.


    Everyone knew that they would go to the country, but no one would have thought that the conditions would be so difficult. Fortunately, both Ye Ling and Fan Qiuyue had something overseas, so they could fly away temporarily and escape the disaster.


    ¡°Then, where do we stay?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry about where you will stay, the program group has already arranged it.¡± The staff answered with a smile.


    ¡°That¡¯s good.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, finally letting out a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Then, in such a place, is there a restaurant or something?¡± Li Yaolin couldn¡¯t help asking.


    The staff smiled: ¡°Of course not.¡±


    When Li Yaolin heard that, her expression changed instantly: ¡°Then how can we solve the problem of eating? Do we eat at a peasant¡¯s house in the village?¡±


    The staff member listened, shook his head, and said with a smile: ¡°There is no village. There are no farmers.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien heard that, they couldn¡¯t help but stare at the staff.


    ¡°Then?¡± Li Yaolin was a little panicked.


    ¡°There are only a few bungalows, only you will be there, and there is no one else for a few kilometers. So, if you want to eat, get it yourself.¡± The staff was still smiling.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Yu Mei¡¯s eyes widened in an instant.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter with Meimei?¡± Guo Yuqin looked at Yu Mei. ¡°Cooking should be a trivial matter to you. There is nothing wrong with it, right?¡±


    Yu Mei opened her mouth, nodded, and smiled: ¡°Of course¡­ no problem.¡±


    She felt like dying. Cooking? She was a person who could only burn the bottom of the pot when boiling water, and she had to cook? Although Yu Mei had a Buddha-like smile on her face, her heart was as flustered as if she was being trampled by 10,000 alpacas.


    TL/N

    However, after Yu Mei¡¯s unhappiness lasted for a short period of time, she quickly adjusted her mentality. It wasn¡¯t wrong that she was a wealthy daughter, and she had been spoiled since she was a child, and it was not wrong to keep her skin out of the sun. But! In order to calm herself down two years before, she had spent three and a half months in the country with her best friend, so she was quite experienced in living in the country.


    As for cooking, it was okay. Li Yaolin could still cook. When the time came, she could let her make it. After all, they could just buy more instant noodles. Who wouldn¡¯t know how to soak noodles those days? The program team did not say that it was not allowed to bring food. In that way, after the show was broadcast, she shouldn¡¯t be air anymore. After all, as a Bai Fumei, but very comfortable with such things as rural life, everyone would give her a few words of praise when they saw that.


    Since the operation of the program group was really a bit too nasty, and Li Yaolin, Jiang Laien, and Ye Kehuan had basically never been in contact with the countryside, and had never lived in the country, their minds were a bit dizzy. Especially when they heard that there was no wireless network there, and even the 4G might be unstable, the expressions of Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien gradually became stiff.


    In this world, what was closer to dying than having no access to the Internet? As an Internet addicted girl, Ye Kehuan could accept all the hard work, but really couldn¡¯t accept the state of being without Internet. Would she die if she couldn¡¯t use Weibo?


    Yu Mei couldn¡¯t help laughing when she saw Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien¡¯s expressions turning cloudier and cloudier. It seemed that in the upcoming episodes, their brilliance ought to dim. Compared with Bai Fumei who could not eat bitterness, Bai Fumei who could were naturally more pleasing.


    When the meeting was over and disbanded, Jiang Laien turned her head to look at Ye Kehuan, opened her mouth, and said nothing in the end. Ye Kehuan also showed the appearance of traveling in space.


    After a while, Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Do you think there will be wild animals in the mountains? Will they surround our place at night?¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien raised her hand and stroked her hair unnaturally: ¡°It should be¡­ no.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded, and then continued to ask: ¡°What do you think our place will be like? Will there be Simmons?¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled without smiling: ¡°Should¡­ there should be, and the program group shouldn¡¯t treat us too badly.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded again: ¡°Yes, after all, we are not doing ¡®The Metamorphosis¡¯.¡±


    At that time, Yu Mei smiled: ¡°Actually, I think the countryside is pretty good, and there is no need to panic so much. Moreover, the air in the countryside is very fresh, which cannot be found in a big city. It¡¯s quite extravagant, and I¡¯m looking forward to it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows and nodded.


    Yu Mei went on to say: ¡°Moreover, it is not a bad thing to have no Internet or anything. Modern people have been immersed in the Internet for too long. They should also take time to put down their mobile phones, look outside, and focus on the people around them. Actually, that might be what living really is.¡±


    Guo Yuqin was very agreeable, and turned to look at her son: ¡°Have you heard, Meimei said so much, you shouldn¡¯t play with your mobile phone all day long.¡±


    After listening, Xiao Mingguang coughed and put down the phone in his hand: ¡°I see.¡±


    ¡°Senior Yu¡¯s philosophy on life is really quite rich.¡± Ye Kehuan said with a smile.


    After Yu Mei listened, her lips curled up again: ¡°It¡¯s just that I have fortunately experienced a lot of things, so I have seen a lot of things. By the way, there will be many mosquitoes in the country, so you need to bring some insecticide spray. When you go to bed, you should also use the spray, and buy some ointment. Another thing is to bring sunscreen, and then, there is also a flashlight. You can also use it in case you have to go out for an emergency at night.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°You know so much; I have been taught.¡±


    Yu Mei smiled slightly and glanced at Jiang Laien again. Seeing that Jiang Laien¡¯s expression still seemed unnatural, her smile became even stronger.


    In the afternoon, after everyone had prepared everything they were going to buy, they took their luggage and boarded the program group¡¯s van and set off for the countryside.


    Because it was quite far away from the city, the car had been driving for three hours and it hadn¡¯t arrived yet. The people in the car were quite tired. They had sore buttocks and felt numb, making them uncomfortable.


    Before they knew it, the sky was dark outside, and the modern city had been replaced by large forests, the roads became narrower, and a thick sense of desolation had swept across the sky. Even before reaching their destination, their mobile phone network was already quite unstable, and it would switch to 2G from time to time, and it took a long time to send a message to someone successfully.


    At 7:30 in the evening, the group finally arrived at the place arranged by the program group.


    Sure enough, there were a few bungalows side by side, and they were not very inhabitable from the outside, looking quite dirty.


    After a few people got out of the car, each group of families moved in after choosing their own house, with Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien choosing the same house.


    After pushing the door in, they saw a bed covered with a mattress, a quilt stacked at the end of the bed, a small wooden table, two benches, and an old wardrobe. Going further inside was a kitchen with pots and pans, and the stove was a typical wood-burning stove. No Simmons, no food, only seasoning, and, mercifully, rice.


    But, in any case, everything about it felt so miserable. Jiang Laien could only keep an awkward and polite smile on her face.


    ¡°I have never burned a wood stove before, how should I arrange this¡­¡± Jiang Laien turned her head and looked around, ¡°We don¡¯t even have much firewood.¡±


    Ye Kehuan walked to the stove with hands on her hips, and reached out to unlock the lid of a big iron pan: ¡°It can only be split tomorrow. I just saw a lot of wooden sticks outside.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan picked up an iron spoon and weighed it: ¡°Suddenly it seems to be quite fun. I have never used such a big iron pan to fry vegetables. I have only watched it on TV before.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien walked over from the water tank and looked at the big iron spoon.


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t it feel like you¡¯re doing a house restoration?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her with the big iron spoon with a smile on her face. She took two more steps, looked around, and raised her hand to get rid of a spider web. ¡°It¡¯s like playing a game like big life transformation, which is to transform a house with nothing into a place where you can live!¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien stared at the spoon in her hand and nodded: ¡°It seems to make sense.¡±


    ¡°Just think although we have nothing at the moment, but tomorrow, when we fill the kitchen with firewood, go out and find a pile of food, and then enjoy the scenery in the downtime, isn¡¯t it particularly interesting? Sounds like more fun than the mobile phones we always use!¡±


    ¡°You make sense!¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s eyes flashed instantly, ¡°Unfortunately it¡¯s too late tonight, and it¡¯s not easy to go out, otherwise I would want to play this game right now!¡±


    ¡°Then let¡¯s eat some bread and ham sausage to satisfy our hunger, then wash and sleep, and start our transformation plan at dawn tomorrow!¡± Ye Kehuan suggested.


    ¡°Good!¡± Jiang Laien echoed.


    At that time, on the other side.


    After Yu Mei and Li Yaolin entered their house, the smiles on their faces gradually solidified.


    It was true that Yu Mei lived in the countryside, but she lived in¡­ a newly developed countryside.


    It was a new place with soft beds, simple houses but still whitewashed, and refrigerators, color TVs, and washing machines, not houses with nothing. This was really beyond her scope.


    Putting down her luggage and taking out some things, Yu Mei looked around, and then walked slowly a few steps before suddenly walking in front of a cobweb. She immediately stopped, and slowly raised her head, looking up, only to see a big spider hanging above her in a mocking posture. Yu Mei¡¯s scalp went numb with fright. She screamed and dodged several steps behind her in a hurry.


    After seeing the spider, Li Yaolin also screamed after her.


    On the other side, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien looked at each other for a while after hearing the two howling like slaughtered pigs, nodded, and left together to enter the house of Yu Mei and Li Yaolin.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Spider, spider¡­¡± Yu Mei stretched out her finger in a certain direction, hesitating.


    Ye Kehuan listened, looked at them, then turned around and picked up a bottle of insecticide that Yu Mei had taken out and put on the bed. Ye Kehuan calmly stepped forward and sprayed the spider. After a while, the spider fell to the ground. Yu Mei hugged Li Yaolin tightly again and screamed. Ye Kehuan stepped forward, calmly stretched out her foot, squashed the spider, and then turned around and smiled: ¡°Okay, it¡¯s gone.¡±


    Yu Mei¡¯s emotions were still quite agitated at that time, her aura exceptionally disturbed, and she just nodded awkwardly.


    But at that moment, a dark figure suddenly sprang out of the kitchen, and then hid under the closet.


    ¡°Ah! Mouse!¡± Yu Mei was even more scared than before. Li Yaolin gritted her teeth and endured the pain of having her feet stepped on, and reached out and patted Yu Mei¡¯s shoulder.


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, dumbfounded for a while, then turned around to find a laundry stick, squeezed it in her hand, and walked to the place where the mouse was hiding, and tapped the closet gently. Feeling the danger, the mouse immediately sprang out from under the cabinet. At the same time, Ye Kehuan quickly swiped the stick in her hands, and knocked the mouse to death on the ground.


    After that, Ye Kehuan stepped forward, grabbed the tail of the mouse that was dead, turned around, and smiled at Yu Mei: ¡°Okay, this is solved too. Don¡¯t be afraid.¡±


    Yu Mei looked at Ye Kehuan, who was holding the dead mouse with a smile, and gulped, her eyes full of horror. Inexplicably, she felt then that Ye Kehuan was more terrifying than spiders and mice!


    ¡°Then let¡¯s go back first.¡± Ye Kehuan dropped the laundry stick, and walked to the door with Jiang Laien and the mouse. ¡°You can call me if you need anything. I¡¯m right next door anyway.¡±


    ¡°Okay, thanks, thank you ¡­¡± Yu Mei was still holding Li Yaolin, her legs trembling.


    At that time, Jiang Laien looked at the mouse in Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand and said, ¡°This is the first time I have seen a real mouse.¡±


    ¡°Me too.¡± Ye Kehuan replied.


    ¡°Actually, the mouse is very cute, but it¡¯s too bad.¡± Jiang Laien signed again.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°If it weren¡¯t because it¡¯s bad and easy to spread diseases, I would really like to raise one.¡±


    Jiang Laien sighed: ¡°Yes, it¡¯s a pity that it¡¯s bad and there are so many viruses, so it can only be killed.¡±


    ¡­


    Yu Mei looked at the backs of the two and listened to the content of the conversation between them. Her mind couldn¡¯t help being messed up. Those two must be demons!


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien disposed of the dead mouse, they returned to their room, took out the bread they were carrying, and began to eat.


    ¡°If we knew it, we should have bought more small breads. It would be miserable if we couldn¡¯t find food tomorrow.¡± Jiang Laien said while eating.


    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I will definitely not make you go hungry.¡± Ye Kehuan looked quite optimistic.


    Jiang Laien also laughed under her infectious nature.


    Since there was no Internet, the two of them boiled water, took a shower in the bathroom, turned off the lights, and started to sleep.


    The next morning, just after dawn, the two of them got up from the bed. Since they had not searched for ingredients yet, they still ate bread with milk for breakfast.


    After breakfast, Ye Kehuan went and knocked on everyone¡¯s door one by one, asking everyone if they would go out for food with her.


    Xiao Mingguang, with his hair messed up from sleep, yawned and nodded when he heard that, ¡°Okay, where should we go for food?¡±


    Ye Kehuan replied: ¡°Laien and I are going to go fishing in the nearby river. The director said there are fish there.¡±


    The program crew already prepared fishing gear and bait for them helpfully.


    ¡°Okay, I¡¯m going right now!¡± Xiao Mingguang¡¯s eyes lit up as soon as he heard fishing.


    At that moment, Yu Mei and Li Yaolin also opened the door of their house and walked out, supporting their sore waists.


    ¡°Do you want to go fishing together?¡± Ye Kehuan looked at them.


    ¡°Fishing¡­ Okay.¡± Yu Mei laughed. She had never tried fishing or anything, but she still had confidence in herself. Just hang the bait on the hook, then put the line in the water and wait quietly, how hard could it be? Moreover, she only wanted to appear in every scene from now on, so she definitely couldn¡¯t be air.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s pack up and get ready to go!¡± After Ye Kehuan said with a smile, she turned around and returned to her room, and packed up with Jiang Laien.


    After more than ten minutes, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien took the fishing tackles, bait, and buckets and walked out of their house together, joined everyone, and set off towards the river together.


    The mouse road was uneven, narrow, and rugged, and there was a little rain the previous night. At that time, the soil was slightly moist, and their feet sank into the soil a little, which made their shoes dirty. Fortunately, for the sake of comfort, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien brought flat shoes for this trip, so they were not tired when walking.


    But Yu Mei was miserable. Because she never thought that the so-called county would be such an undeveloped place, instead thinking that it was the kind of country with tarmac roads, and she was relatively short and loved beauty, she only brought stiletto high heels. Now walking in them was simply suffering. Those expensive shoes not only failed to make her look elegant and rich, but they instead made her look extraordinarily funny.


    Yu Mei really wished she stayed in her house then. Although that would look poor, it was better than taking the mountain trail.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien reached the side of the small river, they saw green trees on both sides of it, and various unknown small wildflowers shyly showing their faces in the grass. They were very cute, and the river was gurgling. Over time, it seemed to wash the human soul. Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help raising her arms, raising her head, and taking a deep breath: ¡°I love it here!¡±


    Yu Mei looked at her back and couldn¡¯t help thinking: Bah, drama queen.


    ¡°Then shall we start fishing now?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Ye Kehuan smiled.


    ¡°Should we make a game to see who catches the most in the end?¡± Xiao Mingguang raised his eyebrows.


    ¡°Yes, but I think I will lose.¡± Jiang Laien sighed.


    ¡°You haven¡¯t started fishing yet--your instinct may be inaccurate!¡± Xiao Mingguang sat down with a smile, tore open a bag of bait, and poured it into a small bowl.


    ¡°But we have a great fisherman here,¡± Jiang Laien looked at Yu Mei, ¡°I remember the ear before or so, Meimei posted a Weibo with a photo showing a bucket full of fish, all of which she caught¡­¡±


    When Yu Mei heard that, she was taken aback for a moment: ¡°Me, you do?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Yu Mei was thunderstruck for an instant, and then finally remembered it slowly. Yes, it seemed that there had been such a thing. At that time, her cousin took her to go fishing, and then her cousin caught a bucket full of fish. She was happy when she saw it, and she posted a Weibo with the article: ¡°Today I went fishing with my cousin. I have gained a lot and I am happy.¡±


    Originally, she did not want to say that she fished them herself, but after the release, fans praised her for her greatness. She was not only beautiful but versatile. She wanted to improve her image, so she didn¡¯t clarify that it was her cousin fishing. Yes, she even posted a shy expression under a hot comment that praised her, which was tantamount to tacitly acquiescing that they were fished by her. After a long time, everyone seemed to agree that she was very good at fishing.


    Thinking of that, Yu Mei froze again. After that, Yu Mei¡¯s brain turned sharply, and she smiled instantly: ¡°Well, that is, I don¡¯t feel very comfortable today, and my head hurts a bit, and I may not be able to catch up with you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded when she heard that, and then kindly asked, ¡°You¡¯re not feeling well? Is it a cold or a migraine?¡±


    Yu Mei smiled and said, ¡°It should just be a cold from last night.¡±


    ¡°Is it serious?¡± Li Yaolin was startled when she heard her words, and she wanted to raise her hand to check her forehead, her eyes filled with worry, ¡°Oh, what can I do?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s just a little uncomfortable.¡± Yu Mei smiled and blocked her hand a little unnaturally.


    After listening, Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Pay attention to your body.¡±


    After she finished speaking, Ye Kehuan went in her backpack again, took out two boxes of medicine from it, and then took out a bottle of water, and handed them to Yu Mei: ¡°It just so happens that I have cold medicine in my bag. You can take it.¡±


    Yu Mei stared at the medicine she handed over, and finally took it from her with a smile: ¡°You are so sweet, thank you, I am really touched.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled innocently when she heard her words, and waved her hand: ¡°You¡¯re welcome, you¡¯re welcome, we should take care of each other when we are traveling.¡±


    ¡°Kehuan is really nice.¡± Guo Yuqin said with a smile.


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily, without saying much, just lowered her head and opened the bait bag and used the clear water to wash it, doing her pre-fishing work earnestly.


    Yu Mei opened the medicine, took out one, put it in her mouth, drank another sip of water, and swallowed it with her eyes closed. It shouldn¡¯t matter if she took some medicine when she was not sick, right? Although some people may have side effects, she should not be so unlucky.


    After a while, everyone¡¯s preparations were completed, and they sat down by the river and were ready to go fishing.


    ¡°Then let¡¯s see who catches more in one or two hours!¡± Xiao Mingguang looked at the watch on his wrist.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Ye Kehuan accepted the challenge.


    ¡°Okay, it¡¯s 9:30 in the morning, start!¡± Xiao Mingguang raised his brows and threw his hook into the water.


    Yu Mei sat between them, looked around, gulped, and started fishing. Fortunately, she was witty enough to use the excuse of being sick, or else she would make a fool of herself that day. Now everyone knew that she was sick, so she just needed to act realistically, then in the end, even if she didn¡¯t get anything, everyone would think it was normal.


    When Ye Kehuan was a child, she often went fishing with her father Ye Bingquan. Because she was so active and could not sit still, her father did so in order to train her to meditate. What he didn¡¯t expect was that Ye Kehuan would fall in love with fishing because of it, and gradually, fished more than her father. Therefore, Ye Kehuan had no burdens when fishing.


    As for Jiang Laien, she had also fished a lot with her parents, so there was no pressure.


    Ten minutes later, Ye Kehuan easily caught one. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Laien also caught one. Xiao Mingguang and Guo Yuqin had too. But on Yu Mei¡¯s side, nothing happened. Yu Mei wiped the sweat from her forehead and continued to pretend to have a headache. Li Yaolin was also a little anxious. The fish on her side was too old to fall for the bait, but it finally bit. As a result, she moved her pole anxiously and the fish got away.


    As time passed, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were like two assassins with no emotions, and they inadvertently caught half a bucket of crucian carp. Time was up, and they called it a day.


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien immediately got together with Xiao Mingguang happily, and counted the number of each other¡¯s catch. In the end, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had a total of nine fish, while Xiao Mingguang and Guo Yuqin had a total of eight. Although the fish were relatively small, there were plenty of them and enough to eat.


    However, Yu Mei and Li Yaolin were in a miserable situation. After two hours, there were no fish at all, and their small bucket was still empty.


    Upon seeing this, Ye Kehuan immediately fished out three crucian carp from her bucket and put them into Yu Mei¡¯s bucket: ¡°I¡¯ll give you some.¡±


    Yu Mei froze for an instant ,and smiled awkwardly: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°We¡¯ll give some to you too. We can¡¯t finish eating so much at once, and there is no refrigerator.¡± Xiao Mingguang said as he also fished out two fish from his bucket for them, and smiled very brightly.


    Li Yaolin held the bucket and tucked her hair: ¡°I¡¯m really sorry, thank you.¡±


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s okay!¡± Guo Yuqin smiled, ¡°It¡¯s great, I¡¯ll have fish for lunch today!¡±


    After speaking, the group walked back, talking and laughing, with the exception of Yu Mei and Li Yaolin. The two of them followed at the back and said nothing during the whole process, just listening to the previous few people sharing their fishing experience.


    On the way back, Ye Kehuan also picked some wild vegetables under the guidance of Guo Yuqin. In that way, their meat and vegetables were matched, and the nutrition was abundant.


    After arriving at their houses, it was almost noon, and it was time for lunch.


    Jiang Laien was responsible for making the fire and burning the wood, while Ye Kehuan washed rice and cooked it, then rolled up her sleeves and sat outside the door and started preparing the fish. Doing so was not a difficult task for her. She used the knife with one hand to cut the gills, scraped off the scales, and took the internal organs from the belly, and then cleaned it up. Then she washed the wild vegetables and cut them with a knife, then sliced the green onion, ginger, and garlic into sections. In just 20 minutes, the vegetable preparation was completed.


    Immediately after that, she was cooking in earnest.


    Ye Kehuan had never used such a big iron pan before, and she was a little excited for a while. She added oil to the pan and poured in all the process small crucian carp into it. Soon, the small crucian carp was fried to a golden-yellow body, and at the same time, it exuded the unique fragrance of fish.


    After it was almost fried, Ye Kehuan took it out again, left the bottom oil in the pan, added the wild garlic, bean paste, star anise, and bay leaves until fragrant, added the cooking wine and other seasonings, and finally added the stir-fried fish. She added water to cover it all, clapped her hands, and walked to sit next to Jiang Laien behind the stove.


    ¡°It¡¯s so fragrant, I feel so hungry now.¡± Jiang Laien ate some potato chips, then took out one and fed it to Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan smiled happily while she bit the potato chip: ¡°I¡¯m so hungry too. I haven¡¯t eaten anything today.¡±


    ¡°But hey, it feels quite interesting here, and there is a feeling of learning.¡± Jiang Laien said, raising the back of her hand to wipe her face, ready to continue eating potato chips.


    ¡°Wait.¡± At that moment, Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows suddenly.


    ¡°Huh?¡± Jiang Laien looked at her, puzzled.


    Ye Kehuan took out a pack of wet-wipes, tore it open, and gently wiped her face: ¡°Look at you, the fire soot has turned you into a little cat.¡±


    Jiang Laien met her gaze, feeling stunned, and then turned her head to look at the tongue of fire in the stove: ¡°Well, is it a cute little tabby cat?¡±


    ¡°Lovely,¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her with a smile in her eyes, ¡°whatever you say is cute.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien felt hot behind her ears, and the corners of her lips curled up, and then she coughed: ¡°Okay, go and see your fish. I¡¯m starving to death.¡±


    Ye Kehuan looked at her, smiled again, and finally put her hands on her knees, stood up, and walked back towards the pot.


    Uncovering the pot, an even stronger scent puffed out in an instant, and the tip of her tongue couldn¡¯t help secreting saliva. At that time, there was not much water in the pot, and the fish was boiled red and attractive. It trembled, as if inviting someone to taste it. Finally, Ye Kehuan set aside the lip and waited for the fire to finish collecting the juice, then put it on a plate, and sprinkled it with chopped green onion, and a perfect plate of watercress crucial was completed in that way. The color and fragrance were equally delicious, and Jiang Laien¡¯s stomach made grunting noises again.


    After that, Ye Kehuan sped up and fried some wild vegetables, then served the cooked rice, put the things on the table, and sat down with Jiang Laien to enjoy.


    ¡°Come on, your favorite, fish belly.¡± Ye Kehuan put a piece of fish belly into Jiang Laien¡¯s bowl.


    The juice on the fish was stained with plump rice grains, glowing with a bright luster, and just looking at it, you would know it was delicious. Jiang Laien brought the fish to her mouth with the white rice, closed her eyes and chewed, and after swallowing, she gave her a thumbs up and licked the corners of her lips: ¡°It¡¯s delicious!¡±


    After Ye Kehuan was praised, her eyebrows relaxed, and she picked up the bowl and began to feast.


    At the same time, Yu Mei and Li Yaolin were in chaos.


    ¡°How to kill this thing?! Oh my god, it keeps moving!¡±


    ¡°Drop it, smash it!¡±


    ¡°No, I can¡¯t do it!¡±


    ¡°Chop the head off directly with a knife!¡±


    ¡°Ah! Still not working, still moving!¡±


    ¡°Ah, it¡¯s gone!¡±


    After tossing for a long time, Li Yaolin and Yu Mei looked at the smashed fish with dumbfounded faces.


    ¡°Mom, you are really good.¡± Yu Mei swallowed and looked at Li Yaolin.


    ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I cooked. I can¡¯t help it. And it¡¯s this kind of stove, and this kind of pot¡­¡± Li Yaolin was suffocating in her heart. Since she participated on the show, everything had really gone wrong.


    In the end, Yu Mei reached out and gently knocked her on the head: ¡°Forget it, let¡¯s eat instant noodles.¡±


    Li Yaolin sighed, and then took apart the instant noodles with her daughter.


    The smell of rice from next door came through the crack in their door, causing the two people¡¯s stomachs to growl. They took deep breaths, and finally opened the lid, and began to eat the shabby instant noodles. Yu Mei didn¡¯t want any sense of existence anymore, she just hoped that the **** show would end soon. She wanted to go home and have a good night¡¯s sleep. She wanted to go home and enjoy all kinds of delicacies made by their chef back home. When she got back, she vowed to eat everything she wanted.


    Just as Yu Mei finished her last bite of noodles and put down her chopsticks, there was a knock on the door.


    So Yu Mei stood up again, walked over, and opened the door.


    As soon as the door opened, she saw Ye Kehuan standing there, smiling.


    ¡°Is there anything?¡± Yu Mei¡¯s face quickly lit up with a smile.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled slightly, then she stretched out her hand and handed over two boxes of cold medicine: ¡°I heard your mother say that you didn¡¯t prepare cold medicine, so I came to deliver medicine. If you have a cold, you should take the medicine, okay?¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s open-minded look was like a living Buddha.


    The corners of Yu Mei¡¯s lips twitched, and she took the medicine, looked at it, then looked at her: ¡°You are so careful. I am so touched that I don¡¯t know what to say.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡®You¡¯re welcome. Have some.¡±


    Yu Mei nodded: ¡°Okay¡­¡±


    Taking out two pills, she gave the medicine box back to Ye Kehuan and smiled again, then put them in her mouth, turned around and picked up a glass of water, then raised her head and drank it.


    Putting down the water glass, Yu Mei closed her eyes, turned to look at her, and smiled.


    ¡°Then I¡¯ll go over there first.¡± Ye Kehuan said, turned around, and left Yu Mei¡¯s room. She returned to her house, rolled up her sleeves, and started chopping wood.


    Yu Mei stood at the door, looking over at Ye Kehuan, who was sweating over there like rain. At that time, she really wanted to go over and kill her. However, there were cameras all around, and she didn¡¯t even know where to start. Besides, she had to maintain her image.


    At that time, Yu Mei¡¯s stomach churned suddenly, and there was a faint pain. Her expression changed. Yu Mei hurriedly picked up the toilet paper and ran towards the toilet. No, did she really run into the side effects of cold medicine? She heard that there was a certain chance of vomiting or diarrhea if you took cold medicine without a cold. Yu Mei really wanted to cut Ye Kehuan to pieces at that time. Who told her to be so enthusiastic?!


    After Ye Kehuan and Xiao Mingguang finished cutting the firewood, they set off again with Jiang Laien to pick mushrooms in the small forest. The three of them talked and laughed along the way, quite happy.


    The air in the mountains was good, and from time to time there were birds flying around, making a peaceful image.


    ¡°Did you live in the mountains when you were young?¡± Ye Kehuan turned to ask Xiao Mingguang as she walked.


    ¡°Yes, I had always lived in the countryside when I was young. I also hunted and caught rabbits with my dad. In the summer, I would go to the river to catch crabs. It was really fun,¡± Xiao Mingguang laughed. ¡°Coming here to record this show this time, I really feel like I¡¯m back when I was a kid, and I¡¯m very happy.¡±


    ¡°It sounds like fun.¡± Jiang Laien wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled.


    ¡°Yes, although I live in the city now, and I am not as poor as before, sometimes I think of it. I feel that the old days were good. Leisurely, and free of pressure.¡± Xiao Mingguang smiled.


    ¡°I also think the countryside is pretty good. Even if there is no Internet, I am still very happy. I want to live here right away.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her surroundings and exclaimed sincerely.


    ¡°How many people wish they were as rich as you, lived in big houses in big cities and ate the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and you want to live in the country?¡± Xiao Mingguang turned his head and looked at her.


    Ye Kehuan laughed: ¡°It¡¯s probably because there is no intrigue out here. The rich have the problems of the rich. I was never able to make friends as a kid. I used to talk to a nice person, and I thought she treated me well, like a true friend. Until one day, because I made a mistake, my dad cut off my financial resources in order to punish me, which caused me to think carefully about buying a two-yuan ice cream, let alone get one for her to share. After seeing me like that, she stopped playing with me, you know? She just went to play with others.¡±


    Speaking of that, Ye Kehuan shook her head with a smile: ¡°So later, I didn¡¯t reveal my family background. Only after that was I able to make some real friends.¡±


    After listening, Xiao Mingguang sighed, ¡°Indeed, there are troubles for the poor, and troubles for the rich.¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled and said nothing, just pointing to a tree: ¡°Mushrooms!¡±


    Then, the three people began to pick mushrooms happily.


    At the same time, Yu Mei went to the toilet again.


    After she walked out of the latrine clutching her belly, her steps began to weaken, and she was also sweating. All she felt was that she was floating, and her soul was about to leave her body, and she was not far from hanging up.


    After pushing open the door of her house, and sitting down beside the bed with her stomach in her hands, Yu Mei¡¯s eyes gradually became hollow, and she fell into a kind of confusion.


    ¡°My daughter, is your cold affecting your stomach? Is that why you have diarrhea so badly? Hey, what can I do?¡± Li Yaolin looked at Yu Mei with worry in her eyes.


    Yu Mei swallowed her saliva and turned her pale face to look at her mother: ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡±


    ¡°Are you really fine?¡± Li Yaolin was very anxious. ¡°Let¡¯s leave the show, and go back to the city to see a doctor.¡±


    ¡°No,¡± Yu Mei decided to stick to her hard-working image, ¡°What¡¯s a little sickness and pain? I¡¯m here to participate on the show, not to be a princess. If a person doesn¡¯t even have a professional spirit, what do they have left?¡±


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Li Yaolin looked at her and sighed.


    At that time, Yu Mei¡¯s expression became weird again, and she instantly covered her stomach with her hand, then stood up and ran out of the door.


    Upon seeing that, the cinematographer was also ready to go out.


    Yu Mei became a little impatient, turned her head to suppress her emotions, and used a lot of effort to say calmly: ¡°There is no need to shoot again, I¡¯m just going to the latrine. It feels a bit strange to keep shooting. After all, I am a girl.¡±


    After listening, the camera operator stopped, and this time he didn¡¯t keep up.


    A few minutes later, Yu Mei came out of the latrine again, really feeling that she was going to collapse. However, when she was about to push open the door to her house, from the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught sight of a snake, and her eyes widened. She didn¡¯t dare look away. At that moment, the snake stopped in front of Ye Kehuan¡¯s door, and finally, she saw it lower its head and slither under the door-gap.


    Upon seeing that, Yu Mei immediately returned to her room, looking at the cinematographer and Li Yaolin: ¡°I just¡­¡±


    ¡°What happened just now?¡± Li Yaolin asked hurriedly.


    Yu Mei¡¯s words reached her lips and she swallowed them back. Was she really going to tell them that a snake entered Ye Kehuan¡¯s room? Why would she talk about it? She obviously hated Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, so why should she help them? It was better to let the snake kill them without paying attention. In that way, she would get rid of one of the thorns in her eye, and everyone would be happy.


    ¡°Meimei?¡± Li Yaolin put her hand on her shoulder, her eyes filled with concern.


    Seeing her daughter having diarrhea like that, and her expression being so strange, she felt distressed as a mother.


    At Li Yaolin¡¯s call, Yu Mei gradually recovered her senses and smiled again: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, but I just remembered that I haven¡¯t looked for ingredients this evening. What should I do? If there are no ingredients tonight, we will probably only eat instant noodles again. Should I go out now?¡±


    After listening, Li Yaolin sighed, ¡°It¡¯s okay. You are not feeling well. Just rest here. I¡¯ll go out to find something to eat. You¡¯re already like this. You can¡¯t eat instant noodles anymore.¡±


    Yu Mei smiled when she heard her words: ¡°Well then, Mom, you have to pay attention to your safety. You have worked hard.¡±


    Li Yaolin nodded, sighed again, and then went out.


    Seeing that the door was closed again, Yu Mei closed her eyes, exhaled, and slowly sat down beside the bed with her hand on her stomach, her whole body listless. However, after sitting for a long time, she ran to the toilet again.


    At 4:30 in the afternoon, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien came back, talking and laughing. After Yu Mei heard the movement, she opened the door and looked out, only to see that Ye Kehuan was taking out the key to open the door. Yu Mei¡¯s heart was pounding. Would she be bitten?


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Ye Kehuan opened the door and looked at Yu Mei.


    ¡°No, I¡­¡± Yu Mei was taken aback, and then smiled, ¡°I just wanted to see if my mother was back.¡±


    ¡°Oh, well, I¡¯ll cook first.¡± Ye Kehuan opened the door and smiled.


    ¡°Okay, you go.¡± Yu Mei smiled, and then returned to her room.


    She hoped that the snake would give them a big bite. Thinking about that, Yu Mei lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and prepared to sleep for a while.


    One and a half hours later.


    ¡°Boom boom boom.¡± The door sounded.


    Yu Mei, in her sleep, had to get up again, quite tired. She walked over and opened the door. Then Ye Kehuan appeared in front of her with a smile.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Yu Mei looked palely at the small bowl of soup in her hand.


    ¡°I caught a snake in my room today, so I made it into snake soup. Good things should be shared with everyone. I¡¯ll give you some.¡± Ye Kehuan said and gave her the small bowl of snake soup.


    Yu Mei held the snake soup, her mouth twitching. Was the woman in front of her the devil?


    At that time, the devil smiled again, taking out two boxes of cold medicine: ¡°If you have a cold, you should keep taking medicine!¡±

 CH 62

    Yu Mei took the cold medicine, looked down at the box, and looked at Ye Kehuan, who was standing in front of her. She tugged at the corners of her lips, feeling like her face was about to cramp: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± After Ye Kehuan finished speaking, she returned to her room.


    Sitting down at the table, Ye Kehuan held up her chopsticks and looked at the snake soup, salt and pepper mushrooms, and cold wild vegetables on the table. She felt very rich and in a good mood, so she looked at Jiang Laien: ¡°Okay, let¡¯s eat!¡±


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Jiang Laien smiled and nodded, drank a sip of snake soup, picked up a few chopsticks of wild vegetables, and ate a bite of salt and pepper mushrooms. She felt that this kind of pastoral life was indeed quite comfortable. Although there was no air conditioner, no Internet, and no TV, she felt a bit like a fairy.


    Yu Mei never would have thought that Ye Kehuan had been a terrible problem child when she was younger. She stabbed bird eggs with others, caught caterpillars in the school yard, beat the fat principal''s grandson, and would even cut off the heads of pet snakes and lizards owned by her uncle..


    Even when Ye Kehuan went to play with a distant relative in the countryside during a summer vacation, she threw cow dung, and would run around the mountain with a stick, pretending to be a bandit. When she came back every day, her whole body was covered in mud, not like a lady at all. It really hurt the brains of the Ye couple.


    Because she was so horrible, when she was in the fifth grade of elementary school, her parents even changed her name to Ye Wenjing. But after the change, they found that it was not useful at all. Ye Kehuan still jumped up and down like a monkey. Instead, the name became a kind of irony, so they changed it back. 1


    Because their daughter was too horrible, her parents hired various professionals to treat her, and after pinching her financial resources so that she could not even afford candy, Ye Kehuan slowly began to become honest. Therefore, Yu Mei was right, Ye Kehuan was indeed a brutal little demon by nature.


    After dinner, and the tableware was cleaned, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien were taking out their dirty clothes to prepare to wash them. As a result, they heard noisy footsteps outside the door.


    The two looked at each other, then stood up, opened the door, and went out to see what was going on outside. They saw that Yu Mei was holding her stomach and getting into a van with Li Yaolin¡¯s support.


    ¡°She¡¯s seriously ill, are you going to see a doctor?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    After listening, Li Yaolin turned her head to look at her with complicated emotions, and then nodded: ¡°Yes.¡±


    Ye Kehuan sighed, ¡°Then remember to be safe on the way back.¡±


    Yu Mei turned her head and looked at her with a pale face and half-opened purple lips, and gave her a smile more ugly than a grimace: ¡°Thank you.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± Ye Kehuan waved her hand.


    Soon after, Yu Mei and Li Yaolin got in the car, and the driver drove them away slowly.


    Ye Kehuan looked as the car¡¯s tail lights faded into the darkness, sighed, and turned to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°See this? You must take care of yourself. The body is the capital of the revolution, and health is the most important thing.¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard her words, she nodded, ¡°Yes.¡±


    ¡°This show is really amazing. People have been leaving from beginning to end.¡± Ye Kehuan stared at the dark courtyard in front of her, sighing with emotion, not realizing what she had done.


    ¡°Yes, this is the first time I have encountered such a situation.¡± Jiang Laien nodded again, and then turned around to start washing clothes.


    At that time, Yu Mei was in the car, clutching her stomach, her teeth gritted with hatred. During the show, she did not have any shining moments, but she ended up like this, and was even forced to stop recording. In fact, she still wanted to bite her teeth and insist on it, but the people on the crew saw that her situation was really not good, and probably because they were afraid something would happen to her, and then she would make a mess, they insisted on sending her away.


    Yu Mei was really unwilling. That was a great opportunity to turn over. She had a chance to stand up again, but she ended up like this. Next, she would still have to live as a passerby under the starlight of Jiang Laien, after coming to close to regaining some for herself¡­


    Also, was Ye Kehuan a fool?!


    Thinking of that, Yu Mei¡¯s stomach hurt worse, and her head started to go dizzy with anger, making her feel like she was dying.


    Li Yaolin saw drops of tears falling from the corner of Yu Mei¡¯s eyes, and was even more anxious. She kept saying: ¡°Daughter, hold on, hold on, hold on, we¡¯ll be at the hospital later, you¡¯ll be alright!¡±


    On the other side, Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, after washing their clothes and drying them, boiled a pot of water, took showers, and then returned to their room and blocked the door with a wooden stick, lying down on the bed.


    The bed was a bit hard. Although there was a cotton mattress underneath, it was directly laid on a wooden board after all. It did not even have a palm mat. For people who were accustomed to sleeping on Simmons and rubber mattresses, it was indeed quite hard.


    After Jiang Laien laid down, looked at the time on her phone, and found that it was only nine o¡¯clock in the evening, which was quite early, and laid there without a trace of sleepiness, she had to take out her phone and open a video app.


    ¡°Do you have a network?¡± Ye Kehuan pulled the quilt on her body and looked at her sideways.


    Jiang Laien shook her head: ¡°No, just, before coming here, the people in the program group said that the network here was unstable, and there was no guarantee, so I downloaded some movies and saved them on my phone so that I could watch them without the Internet.¡±


    ¡°Witty, I forgot that I could do that.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips curled slightly.


    ¡°Because you are a fool.¡± Jiang Laien glanced at her sideways and shook her head helplessly.


    Ye Kehuan laughed happily, coughed lightly, and then said, ¡°Which movie did you download, let¡¯s watch it together, anyway, there is nothing to do.¡±


    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Jiang Laien raised her finger and swiped the screen, ¡°Several of them, including ;Love in Time and Space¡¯ starring Wang Liangxing, and ¡®Dreamland of Me and You¡¯ by Bai Wei, and ¡®I Love You, Needless to Say¡¯ by Xu Pianpian.¡±


    ¡°Are they all literary romance movies?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Yes, I prefer to watch quieter movies. Which one do you want to watch?¡± Jiang Laien stopped her hand scrolling the screen and turned to ask her.


    After thinking for a moment, Ye Kehuan said, ¡°Then let¡¯s watch ¡®I Love You, Needless to Say¡¯.¡±


    Even though Ye Kehuan just read the name of the movie there, Jiang Laien felt that she was saying that to herself when she heard her words, and a subtle and strange feeling immediately arose in her heart.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, and then clicked on the movie.


    After she clicked on it, Ye Kehuan moved her body closer to her. In that way, her breath scratched Jiang Laien¡¯s neck, bringing out a strange tickling sensation. Jiang Laien gulped, and then clicked on the movie.


    The film looked very cute and fresh from the beginning. The subtitles at the beginning of the film were very small and neat. With the background music, it seemed to be filled with a touch of sadness.


    The male protagonist in the film was a deaf and mute person. After getting acquainted with the female protagonist, he fell in love with her at first sight. Unfortunately, the gap between them was too large. Whether it was their family backgrounds or other things, in general, it was too great of an obstacle, so he had always hid his love in his heart because of his low self-esteem, and was careful to not let it be discovered by others.


    However, what he didn¡¯t know was that the female lead actually fell in love with him at first sight too, and even deliberately learned sign language in order to get close to him, just to communicate with him.


    In the end, the two finally got married, and it was a very warm ending.


    After watching it, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but sigh slightly: ¡°It¡¯s really not easy.¡±


    Jiang Laien put down her phone and nodded: ¡°Yes, fortunately, I didn¡¯t miss it. This is also a kind of luck.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded, and then stopped talking, just resting her hands and turning her head to look at Jiang Laien, who was lying on her side.


    Seeing that she had been staring at her like that, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t know how to react for a while, so she just stretched out one hand and played with her hair for a bit. Then, gradually, she noticed that Ye Kehuan reached out and took the hand she had lying on the bed.


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands were warm, with a fascinating temperature, but at the same time, it was eager and flustered.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Laien looked up at her.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan just smiled, looked at her, and asked, ¡°Is there really love at first sight in this world?¡±


    Jiang Laien was shocked when she heard her words, and then said: ¡°From a hormonal point of view, it exists. Because love originates from the secretion of hormones. And they will only appear when you meet the right person, a person you like. So, theoretically speaking, love at first sight exists, but strictly speaking, a long-lasting love is relatively rare.¡±


    ¡°That seems to make sense. Otherwise, why are you saying that if you want to like them, you already liked them, so how could you wait so long?¡¯ Ye Kehuan nodded to the ceiling.


    ¡°Well, there are exceptions¡­¡± Jiang Laien continued.


    Ye Kehuan turned her head and looked at her again: ¡°Of course there are exceptions.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at her, and inexplicably, she felt that a little sweat was leaking from the palm of her hands. Ye Kehuan¡¯s eyes were ambiguous and scorching, which would always make her want to fall.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s complexion was ruddy at that time, her lips were full, and she looked beautiful. Looking at her in that way, Ye Kehuan¡¯s throat gradually began to dry out without her realizing it. How long had it been? How long had she not tasted her? Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s face, only to feel that there was a certain kind of restless sentiment flowing in blood and through her body at that time.


    It had been more than 20 days since the shooting began. She hadn¡¯t touched her for more than 20 days. At that time, Ye Kehuan was like a starving traveler walking in the desert under the scorching sun. She really wanted to touch her, but there were cameras all around, and she couldn¡¯t do anything at all.


    Gently stroking Jiang Laien¡¯s hand under the quilt, Ye Kehuan gulped, and her voice was a little hoarse: ¡°It¡¯s not too early now, it¡¯s time to go to sleep.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked up when she heard her words, and finally nodded: ¡°Yeah.¡±


    Reaching out and turning the light off, the two closed their eyes and prepared to fall asleep.


    It was just that the two of them were only a little sleepy, and each had their own thoughts, and felt that the temperature in the quilt was steadily rising. Gradually, a thin layer of sweat floated on Jiang Laien¡¯s forehead.


    After an unknown amount of time, finally, the two people fell asleep.


    After shooting two episodes there, the group rushed to a new city to continue shooting without stopping. At the same time, Fan Qiuyue and Ye Ling also dealt with their own affairs, and returned to the show to continue recording. In that way, because there were enough people, it seemed to be quite lively.


    At the same time, after Ye Kehuan inquired about the ward where Yu Mei was staying, she ordered a bunch of flowers remotely and sent them to Yu Mei¡¯s ward. Yu Mei, who was about to be discharged from the hospital and prepared to return to the program group to continue to participate on the show, and then try her best to brush up her sense of existence, received the bouquet of flowers, suddenly rolled her eyes and sneezed countless times, and collapsed onto the floor. There were small, dense pimples all over her body not long after, and painful tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, which caused the nurse to call the doctor in a hurry.


    Yes, she was severely allergic to pollen.


    If the person Yu Mei used to hate the most was Jiang Laien, then Jiang Laien was no longer at the top of her resentment list. Now, she really hated Ye Kehuan to death.


    The last stop of the variety show was filmed in a city with a lot of ethnic customs and culture. The people there looked very energetic, the girls had clear eyes and were good at singing and dancing, and the boys were also full of enthusiasm.


    After finally leaving the countryside and living in a luxury bed and breakfast, Ye Kehuan suddenly felt that such a place was much better than the countryside.


    After putting down her things and turned around in the room, Ye Kehuan was like a child who had never seen the world before, her eyes gleaming.


    ¡°Look, mom, there are chairs with cushions!¡± Ye Kehuan picked up a chair and raised it above her head.


    ¡°Mom, look, Simmons!¡± Ye Kehuan rushed over and jumped onto the bed.


    ¡°Mom, look, there is air conditioning!¡± Ye Kehuan pointed upwards.


    ¡°Mom, look, there is a TV!¡± Ye Kehuan walked next to the color TV, put her hand on it, and struck a pose.


    ¡°Mom, look, hot water!¡± Ye Kehuan turned on the shower and cupped some water.


    ¡°Mom, look¡­¡±


    Ye Ling looked dumbfounded, and finally folded her arms, shook her head, and sighed: ¡°What have you experienced before?¡±


    Ye Kehuan fell on the bed: ¡°It¡¯s nothing, there was nothing in the countryside. I seemed to have been about to become a primitive person. Suddenly seeing these things, I feel that I have entered modern society again, and I am very excited.¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t the country fun?¡± Ye Ling opened her suitcase, sorted out her clothes one by one, and hung them in the closet.


    ¡°Fun is fun, but in comparison, I really like this place better.¡± Ye Kehuan said, walked over, and started tidying up her clothes.


    ¡°Well, hurry up and unpack, and when you¡¯re done, we¡¯ll go out for a stroll.¡± Ye Ling glanced at her, her eyebrows raised slightly.


    In a moment, after unpacking all their luggage, the group went out together to visit the famous local attractions.


    The first thing they went to was a very famous tropical park. The park was huge, and the tickets were quite cheap. After entering, the trees were luscious and there were many forked roads. It felt like a very beautiful picture.


    In addition, there was a large lake with no head or tail. There were some small boats drifting on the surface of the lake. There were also girls in local costumes cleaning things by the lake, probably employed by the garden as staff.


    ¡°This place seems to be more beautiful than before.¡± Ye Ling suddenly said as she walked.


    ¡°Have you been here before?¡± Fan Qiuyue turned to look at her.


    ¡°Yes,¡± Ye Ling looked into the distance. ¡°At that time, the scale was not as large and the tickets were even cheaper. I came with my now husband. We hadn¡¯t fallen in love yet. Then, while we were walking here, my husband suddenly grabbed my hand.¡±


    Ye Ling laughed at that point.


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you chase him? He confessed first?¡± Ye Kehuan was a little surprised.


    ¡°Is there a problem?¡± Ye Ling gave her a look.


    ¡°No problem.¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows.


    ¡°Anyway, we were here to confirm the relationship. After confirming it, he asked me shyly if he could hold my hand.¡± Ye Ling looked at the lake with her arms folded, and shook her head with a smile.


    ¡°Sounds really interesting, so sweet.¡± Fan Qiuyue looked at Ye Ling. To be honest, she was quite envious of Ye Ling. She was very successful in her career, love, and family.


    Ye Ling smiled after listening, ¡°So, sure enough, sometimes it is important for people to stick to their own ideas.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Fan Qiuyue didn¡¯t understand why she suddenly talked about that.


    ¡°At the beginning, my parents wanted me to marry a very wealthy person who I didn¡¯t like, but I finally refused,¡± Ye Ling smiled, ¡°then I met my husband. It turned out that I didn¡¯t have to obey. Only by chasing everything in your heart can you find happiness.¡±


    After that, Ye Ling turned her head and looked at Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien, raised her eyebrows slightly, then lifted a hand and tapped the air: ¡°This is the advice I will give you juniors, if you meet someone you like, remember not to give in to your surroundings, do not bow your head, and insist on pursuing your own happiness. Got it?¡±


    After listening, Ye Kehuan was stunned, and then laughed: ¡°Yeah!¡±


    Jiang Laien also nodded slightly after looking at Ye Ling for a few seconds.


    Fan Qiuyue was dumbstruck. Because she suddenly thought of herself.


    In everyone¡¯s opinion, she seemed to be perfect, but in fact, that was only her career. She was not very close to her children, and she had slept in separate rooms from her husband for many years. They said they were husband and wife, but they only existed as such in name only. She and Jiang Laien¡¯s dad would only pretend to be close on important occasions, and otherwise would not mix river water and well water. Also, their marriage was arranged to start with, so where would they have built real feelings? 2


    Thinking of that, Fan Qiuyue stared in front of her, raised her hand to tuck her hair, and sighed slowly: ¡°Sister Ling is right.¡±


    Ye Ling listened, looked at the lake, and then at the sky: ¡°I want to eat fruit, how about you?¡±


    ¡°Okay! Let¡¯s go!¡± Ye Kehuan was the first to agree.


    Ye Ling looked at her daughter like a fool for a while, then shook her head, turned, and walked in a certain direction.


    Jiang Laien walked next to Ye Kehuan, looking at Ye Ling¡¯s back in front of her, and felt that she seemed to be suggesting something. Was it because of her?


    Soon, the show was recorded amidst the laughter of a bonfire party.


    After that, everyone boarded planes and returned to their lives.


    Since Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had no schedule in the near future and could rest for a few days, the two decided to return to their Morikawa City house for a few days before making other plans. After all, they just recorded a month-long program, and before that, they were filming. They hadn¡¯t gotten serious rest for several months, and they were quite exhausted.


    After two or three hours of turbulence, the plane finally landed. After the two people put on overcoats and retrieved their luggage, they walked to the side of the car.


    While watching the driver put their luggage in the trunk, Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help yawning.


    Ye Kehuan opened the car door and motioned for her to sit: ¡°Are you sleepy?¡¯


    ¡°Well,¡± Jiang Laien nodded, ¡°a little bit.¡±


    ¡°You can have a good rest when we get back.¡± Ye Kehuan closed the car door, walked to the other side, and opened the other door and got in.


    Probably because they had spent so long in Morikawa, even if it was not their birthplace, they still had a strong sense of belonging to it. As the car started, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but sigh as she looked at the bright city passing by the windows. ¡°We finally came home.¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I really rarely do such high-intensity work. Tomorrow, I will wake up naturally.¡± Jiang Laien stroked her neck and yawned.


    Ye Kehuan smiled: ¡°Okay, you can sleep as long as you want.¡±


    After speaking, Ye Kehuan¡¯s WeChat rang. She saw Chen Lulu sent her a picture. The picture was her newly released meme, which looked like a screenshot from the variety show. It was funny.


    The corners of her lips were slightly lifted, and Ye Kehuan asked, ¡°Are you still in Chongyuan now?¡±


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Chen Lulu responded in seconds.


    Ye Kehuan thought for a moment, then continued to ask: ¡°Then how are you and boss Ji now?¡±


    Chen Lulu: ¡°We¡¯re friends, what else¡­ But, I will definitely make her like me. At least she doesn¡¯t dislike me now. That means it is still possible for her to like me, right?!¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head and sent an ellipsis.


    Chen Lulu was still continuing to send messages over: ¡°By the way, I won¡¯t talk to you anymore. Today is her birthday, and I am going to prepare a surprise for her now, goodbye!¡±


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head, shook it, and finally opened Weibo.


    With the release of the program, her fans on Weibo had also increased dramatically. Moreover, many people who were not prepared to watch the show, in the end, couldn¡¯t help but start watching some of the CP animations between her and Jiang Laien.


    Cheng Yan¡¯s fans either stopped being so or stepped back. Many who believed that Cheng Yan was not a black lotus, and were dissatisfied with Ye Kehuan, still dared not say anything loudly.


    However, some people still mocked Ye Kehuan, saying that she was an incompetent second generation rich. Every time she went on the hot search, it was never based on her acting skills or film and television works. She always relied on gossip news or variety shows. With her family background, she should just go and focus on variety shows, and not insult the word actor any further.


    Moreover, there were quite a few such voices. Those who mocked her indeed stopped talking about her selling herself to bosses, but instead started to bring up her terrible acting. Many were eagerly awaiting her film ¡°Black Bites¡± to be released, so they could pick her apart even further. In general, this group of people secretly hoped she would be terrible. That way, the director of public opinion would definitely change. After all, the heat brought by variety shows and her family background were temporary. In the end, only her skills would really speak.


    Others suspected that the reason why Ye Kehuan became the heroine of ¡°Black Bites¡± was because she paid for the character. After all, her family was so rich that it was impossible to be unable to afford that little money.


    Ye Kehuan looked at the comments on the Internet, raised her hand, and stroked her lips.


    She knew that someone would take those things as an example. Therefore, she didn¡¯t want to expose her family history. However, Ye Kehuan also just glanced over it now. As long as people wanted to black her out, then no matter what she did, there would always be someone who had a reason.


    In general, most people on the Internet liked her, and the discussion around her was even comparable to Jiang Laien, with most of them being positive.


    Just as Ye Kehuan flipped through those things, her shoulder suddenly felt heavy. Turning her head, she saw Jiang Laien perched on her shoulder.


    She fell asleep, but she kept touching her arm with her hand, and she looked a little cold. The temperature in Morikawa was still a bit low after all.


    Ye Kehuan saw it, looked at the driver, and whispered, ¡°Boss, please raise the temperature of the air conditioner.¡±


    ¡°Sure.¡± The driver nodded.


    After Ye Kehuan retracted her gaze, she looked at Jiang Laien¡¯s face again, only to think that she was really cute like that, and a smile accidentally dyed her lips.


    At that time, in a hospital in Chongyuan.


    Ji Changge, dressed in black, sat behind the doctor¡¯s desk, quietly looking at the doctor who was studying her test report.


    After a while, the doctor put down the examination report, folded his hands, placed them on the table, and looked at Ji Changge: ¡°You have been undergoing this operation for three years, right¡­ Your situation is not optimistic now. There are signs of recurrence and deterioration.¡±


    After listening, Ji Changge let out a sigh, and suddenly smiled: ¡°Really?¡±


    ¡°Yes, but you don¡¯t have to worry too much. There is still a high chance that we can control it with chemotherapy.¡± The doctor looked at her.


    After listening, Ji Changge let out another sigh, only feeling a little tired, and said with a smile: ¡°I¡¯ll think about it.¡±


    The doctor furrowed his eyebrows, and pushed the examination report to her: ¡°Just think about it. If the cancer cells metastasize too far, it will be even more difficult.¡±


    Ji Changge nodded and put away the inspection report: ¡°Then I¡¯ll go first. Thanks for your hard work.¡±


    After speaking, Ji Changge turned and walked out of the doctor¡¯s office. The doctor looked at her back, pushed down his glasses, and sighed.


    After leaving the hospital, Ji Changge folded the examination report, leaned against her motorcycle, looked at everything around her, and clasped her arms tightly. Had she finally reached the limit of the five-year survival rate? The doctor¡¯s words sounded pretty good, but if she was the doctor, she would probably comfort people in that way. After all, he had to keep the patient optimistic, right? But was it really necessary to waste time on treatment?


    She hadn¡¯t explored all her options yet, but if the treatment was useless, wouldn¡¯t she have hoped for nothing, and then leave with regrets? Moreover, in this life, she had not been very happy. Maybe it was better to die than to live, and once her eyes were closed, she would get rid of it once and for all.


    It was just¡­ Ji Changge picked up her phone, looked at the words ¡®Chen Lulu¡¯ on the contract list, put down her phone again, and closed her eyes. The way she was now, should she really let her stay close? Was she sure she wouldn¡¯t just hurt her twice over in the future?


    Putting on her helmet, Ji Changge rode her motorcycle and drove towards the river.


    At the same time, in a high-end community in Chongyuan.


    Chen Lulu was learning how to make a cake according to a recipe in a beige kitchen. Her hair was pulled casually, and her off-white sweater covered her thighs, making her legs slender and tight, which was extraordinarily sexy.


    She was not very good at making desserts, but because Ji Changge said that when she was a child, she once cried because she didn¡¯t get to eat a rainbow pony cake, so thought of making a rainbow pony cake for her. If she received it, she should be very happy, right? Thinking of that, Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help but bend her eyes with a smile.


    Cakes were very difficult for Chen Lulu to make, and she couldn¡¯t always grasp the details. Fortunately, she did it in the end. Looking at the round cake in front of her, Chen Lulu smiled so much that her eyes turned into crescent moons. Afterwards, Chen Lulu used a spatula to spread the whipped cream on the cake base little by little, and then put some edible materials in the middle to form a rainbow pony.


    After finishing the rainbow pony, Chen Lulu squatted and looked at her, her smile too sweet for words.


    Finally, Chen Lulu put the remaining cream into a piping bag, hummed a little song, and framed the cake in flowers.


    ¡°It¡¯s so beautiful¡­¡± Chen Lulu picked up the cake, tilted her head for a while, and said to herself, ¡°She should like it? She said that the thing she wanted to eat most when she was a child was cake. Even now, this obsession should be maintained while she grew up¡­¡±


    Imagining the joyous expression Ji Changge might show when receiving the cake, Chen Lulu felt happy in her heart.


    After packing it up, Chen Lulu washed her hands, trotted all the way back to her bedroom like a bird, opened her closet, chose a feminite white slim knit dress and brown jacket, put it on, and looked in the mirror. She raised her hand and compared it with a pair of scissors, then went back to the dressing table and sat down and started putting on makeup. After her ensemble was completed, the girl in the mirror was really charming and gentle, and even when she saw it herself, she was heartened.


    After putting some lipstick in her bag, Chen Lulu checked the time, and immediately took her bag, picked up the cake, ran out the door, and went to the underground garage.


    After getting into her car, Chen Lulu began to call Ji Changge. However, the phone rang until the phone was hung up, but no one answered.


    Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t help being a little dazed.


    Was she busy? Or was her phone muted? Thinking about that, Chen Lulu called again, but the result was the same as before, and no one answered at all.


    Chen Lulu didn¡¯t give up and made another call, but at that time, a familiar female voice was heard inside. The voice said: ¡°Hello, the phone you dialed is turned off.¡±


    Slowly putting down her phone, Chen Lulu tightened her lips, staring at the steering wheel blankly. Why didn¡¯t she answer her phone, and why did she shut it down? Was she bored of her? No, that shouldn¡¯t be the case. Yesterday was fine. Yesterday she brought mouse traps to help her catch mice¡­


    It should be because she was busy, so she didn¡¯t answer her phone ,and then her phone automatically turned off when it ran out of power.


    It should be like that. Thinking about that, Chen Lulu put down her mobile phone, drove her car out of the garage, and set off for the Four Seasons Grill.


    However, when she arrived there, Chen Lulu discovered that the barbecue restaurant was not open that day.


    Chen Lulu tightened her lips and called Ji Changge again, but it was still turned off.


    Sighing, Chen Lulu drove her car to Ji Changge¡¯s house. If she was not at her barbecue show, was she at home?


    Arriving in the garage of Ji Changge¡¯s community, Chen Lulu parked her car and jumped out with the cake, and walked quickly to the building where Ji Changge lived. The community was relatively old, but all kinds of facilities were quite complete.


    Once she arrived at Ji Changge¡¯s door, Chen Lulu reached out and knocked on it: ¡°Changge!¡±


    However, no matter how much Chen Lulu knocked, no one answered her at the door.


    Finally, the next door over opened, and a middle-aged woman holding chopsticks poked her head out: ¡°Are you looking for someone?¡±


    Chen Lulu was stunned when she heard the voice coming from the house, and nodded: ¡°Yes, I¡¯m looking for the beautiful woman who lives here.¡±


    The middle-aged woman raised her hand and stroked her nose: ¡°She went out in the afternoon and may not be back.  You can call and ask.¡±


    After listening, Chen Lulu was startled, and then bowed: ¡°Okay, thank you.¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re welcome.¡± After the neighbor spoke, she closed the door again.


    Seeing that the door was closed, Chen Lulu picked up her phone, put in Ji Changge¡¯s number, pressed her lips tightly, and called her again. However, it was still shut down.


    ¡°Hey, where did you go¡­¡± Chen Lulu leaned back against the door, let out a sigh, and decided to wait for her.


    However, there were no chairs there, and she was wearing high heels. Suddenly, her legs were numb, so Chen Lulu had to go downstairs and walk to the bench on the right side of the building exit and sat down with a white-haired old man, and chatted with him while waiting for Ji Changge to return.


    The old man told her a lot of interesting things about when he was young, and Chen Lulu could always laugh at his stories.


    That was until the old man talked about the death of his wife ten years before, and when the old man¡¯s eyes went red, Chen Lulu couldn¡¯t laugh. Although birth, old age, sickness, and death were all natural, it was still saddening.


    The sky gradually darkened, and the people next to her on the bench changed a few times. Chen Lulu listened to many stories, and several hours passed. In an instant, it was ten o¡¯clock in the evening. However, Chen Lulu still didn¡¯t even see the shadow of Ji Changge. Her phone was still turned off.


    Her legs were numb again. It was cold. Chen Lulu had to stand up, put the cake on the bench, and started stretching exercises under the street light. After she jumped up and down a few times, she finally felt a little warmer, but her feet were really uncomfortable. If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that the ground was too cold, she really wanted to take off her shoes.


    At that time, on the riverside.


    Ji Changge stood up from a pavilion, walked slowly to the riverside, looked across the river, and finally let out a sigh and turned around. She returned to her motorcycle and went home.


    After arriving at the garage and stopping, Ji Changge got off, put her hands in her coat pockets, and walked to the building where she lived.


    However, after seeing Chen Lulu from a distance, Ji Changge couldn¡¯t help but shrink her pupils and pause.


    Then, when Chen Lulu turned around, Ji Changge instantly withdrew to the side, and turned her head halfway to listen to her movement. She didn¡¯t know what she was doing then, she just felt that her mind was terribly messed up. At the same time, her chest cavity felt faintly stuffy, and the physical discomfort made her frown.


    Turning around, Ji Changge went to another bench and sat down, staring in front of her with her eyes open, preparing for Chen Lulu to go in.


    However, after waiting for an hour, Chen Lulu still didn¡¯t show up. Ji Changge frowned, got up again, took a deep breath, and walked over there. Chen Lulu was sitting on the bench with her arms wrapped, shivering with cold, and even sneezed twice.


    Closing her eyes, Ji Changge walked over quickly and stood still in front of her.


    After realizing that there was someone standing in front of her, Chen Lulu opened her eyes dizzily, her gaze falling on a pair of Martin boots, and then gradually moved upwards, and saw that the extremely thin Ji Changge was standing in front of her at the moment, and she smiled instantly. She got up, her legs no longer sore, her body no longer cold, and her brain no longer throbbing. She dragged a toe across the ground: ¡°You came back?!¡±


    Ji Changge¡¯s gaze shifted slightly as she got up, and then said: ¡°You have been waiting for me?¡±


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Chen Lulu smiled, then hurriedly picked up the cake on the bench and gave it to her, ¡°Changge, happy birthday, I wish you all the best, to be happy every day!¡±


    ¡°Ah thweet!¡± After speaking, Chen Lulu turned her head away and sneezed.


    Ji Changge had no choice but to take the cake from her: ¡°Thank you. Come with me.¡±


    ¡°Hey?¡± Chen Lulu was still a little dizzy.


    ¡°Come up and have some hot water.¡± Ji Changge pressed the elevator button.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Chen Lulu felt a fire in her blood, and trotted over to stand beside Ji Changge, and from time to time she secretly glanced at her profile.


    After arriving in the room, Ji Changge put the cake on the coffee table, went to the tap and turned on the hot water, turned on the air conditioner, and closed the kitchen and bedroom doors. After a while, Ji Changge took off her jacket and threw it on the sofa, took another cup of hot water, and handed it to Chen Lulu: ¡°Drink, slow down, don¡¯t worry.¡±


    ¡°Yeah!¡± Chen Lulu nodded, holding the water glass.


    Ji Changge watched her drinking the water, paced, and finally said: ¡°Are you sure you have no other feelings towards me?¡±


    As soon as she asked that, Chen Lulu choked on the water and coughed constantly.


    ¡°Why, why did you suddenly ask me that again? Today is your birthday. As a friend, can¡¯t I give you a cake, right?¡± Chen Lulu smiled reluctantly, holding the water glass.


    Ji Changge turned her head away: ¡°I just wanted to check again.¡±


    ¡°Haha, confirm?¡± Chen Lulu suddenly laughed, ¡°Why, are you so afraid of being liked by me?¡±


    Ji Changge looked at the ground, and finally nodded silently.


    After Chen Lulu saw her nodding, her eyes went red involuntarily, and her throat started choking up. After a while, she sniffled: ¡°Really? You¡¯re so scared? To you, am I a virus?¡±


    Ji Changge turned her head and looked at her: ¡°It has nothing to do with you. It¡¯s just that I can¡¯t give you the happiness you want. That¡¯s why I have always emphasized that you shouldn¡¯t spend your thoughts on me.¡±


    Chen Lulu looked at her with a sigh of relief in her throat, her eyes filled with tears, and then, when the tears flowed out, she suddenly yelled out: ¡°But I just like you, what can I do? I just like you! If I could find a way to forget you, why would I be stalking here?! Also, what does it mean that it¡¯s impossible to give me the happiness that I want, what do you mean? I don¡¯t like it, why is it impossible to give me happiness? Tell me clearly!¡±


    Ji Changge looked at her, closed her eyes, then opened them again, fully bloodshot, and raised her finger to herself: ¡°Because I¡¯m **** sick, I can die anytime, do you understand that?!¡±


    In an instant, the glass in Chen Lulu¡¯s hand fell to the ground, and shattered to pieces.


    ¡°Wh, what¡­¡± Chen Lulu stood up incredulously and walked towards her, ¡°What¡­¡±


    ¡°What can a dying person give you? What can you get? Tell me.¡± Ji Changge smirked.


    Chen Lulu stared at her blankly, and then suddenly reached out her hand to cover her mouth, the tears in her eyes gathering more and more, and her shoulders trembled.


    ¡°Thinking about it, it¡¯s scary, isn¡¯t it? I¡¯m scared. Do you dare to love me like this?¡± Ji Changge said, taking two steps backwards.


    However, at that moment, Chen Lulu suddenly rushed up, wrapped her neck, pulled her head down, and handed her a kiss that was so hot it could burn people¡¯s souls.

 CH 63

    Chen Lulu could feel Ji Changge¡¯s body trembling, with her lips and teeth touching each other carefully. Chen Lulu closed her eyes, tears slipping and rolling into the corners of her lips, which were salty.


    Ji Changge¡¯s eyes closed slightly, her breathing became a little awkward, and she only felt that her whole body was stiff. Chen Lulu¡¯s movements were very light and gentle, and at the same time, a bit clumsy. She didn¡¯t know how to kiss. Everything was going based on feelings. She just wanted to let the other party understand in the most direct way that she really loved her. No matter what happened in the future, that would not change.


    Under that touch, the breaths of the two intertwined, and the last line of defense and reason in Ji Changge¡¯s heart was gradually torn apart by the woman in front of her, and it was difficult for her to recover. Gradually, Ji Changge began to stroke Chen Lulu¡¯s back, and then pushed her away and took two steps backwards, panting lightly: ¡°Do you know what you are doing?¡±


    ¡°Why can¡¯t I know? Of course I know! I love you, I want to be with you, I want to take care of you¡­¡± Chen Lulu said, tears falling.


    ¡°You don¡¯t know, you are jumping into a fiery pit.¡± Ji Changge leaned against the wall and looked up at her, her breathing still very disordered.


    ¡°Then you think you pushed me out when you pushed me away? I told you, I¡¯ve fallen off the edge a long time ago, and can¡¯t climb up!¡± Chen Lulu approached her, sniffling, her eyes full of tears, and her makeup already ruined.


    Ji Changge looked at her for a long while, then looked down at the ground, as if she was about to grind her teeth.


    ¡°You like me too, don¡¯t you? If you really didn¡¯t like me, you could just reject me and block me, but you can¡¯t do it because you care about me,¡± Chen Lulu opened her mouth, breathing heavily, and continued to step forward in a daze, walking right up to her, ¡°right?¡±


    Ji Changge raised her head and looked at her: ¡°Am I worthy of you?¡±


    Chen Lulu looked at her and continued to sniffle: ¡°Answer me, you like me too, don¡¯t you? When I just kissed you, you responded to me, and really responded to me. Doesn¡¯t this prove that you like me?¡±


    Ji Changge squeezed her arm, her eyebrows still furrowed: ¡°Don¡¯t be like this, I¡¯m not worthy of it¡­¡±


    ¡°Whether you¡¯re worth it or not is my final say, not yours, your thoughts can¡¯t replace mine!¡± Chen Lulu shouted again.


    Ji Changge¡¯s back pressed against the wall: ¡°What do you want?¡±


    Chen Lulu stared at her intensely, biting her lower lip, and finally, she let out a sigh of relief, and said in an inaudible voice: ¡°Be my girlfriend.¡±


    At that moment, she had no worries. She just wanted to be with Ji Changge. No matter what the future was, she just wanted to be with her, for as long as she could. If she was sick, Chen Lulu would find a way to treat it with her. If she had any troubles, they would go through them together.


    ¡°Be my girlfriend.¡± Chen Lulu opened her mouth to breathe, her eyes wide, and she looked straight into Ji Changge¡¯s eyes.


    Ji Changge looked at her for a moment, then suddenly dragged her into her arms, reached out her hand to clasp the back of her head, brought her in close, and pressed their foreheads together: ¡®Why are you so stubborn?¡±


    Chen Lulu¡¯s heart was racing, and her lips were tightly pressed: ¡°Because I love you.¡±


    ¡°I really lost to you.¡± Ji Changge stared at her full lips, then turned her head and kissed them.


    At that distance, in addition to being able to feel the heat of the other party, it seemed that you could also feel the other¡¯s heartbeat. At a glance, they were open and intense. Chen Lulu¡¯s body was as soft as cotton wool, soft and light. Ji Changge¡¯s hands roamed down her back and she couldn¡¯t help bringing her closer to herself. Under the erosion of her somewhat domineering aura, Chen Lulu felt that her whole body had become weak, and her heartbeat was so fast that she couldn¡¯t distinguish between reality and illusion.


    After Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien returned home, it was already past five in the afternoon. Originally, it was time to cook and eat, but Jiang Laien fell asleep on the bed because she was so sleepy after taking a shower.


    Seeing her very tired, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t bear to wake her up, so she let her sleep. After that, Ye Kehuan left the room, put on a mask, a hat, and a pair of black spectacle frames, then went out and was driven to the supermarket.


    Their refrigerator at home was empty, and Jiang Laien needed something to eat after waking up. However, she could definitely not eat takeaways anymore. After all, not every restaurant strictly controlled the quality of their ingredients like Drunken Flower Workshop, let alone takeaway shops. Many places even directly used bags of frozen steamed vegetables. When they were torn apart, it was poured directly on the rice and sent out.


    Along the way, Ye Kehuan was paying attention to the scene moving backwards outside the window, always thinking about the little things she had with Jiang Laien from time to time, and she was laughing there alone. The driver looked at Ye Kehuan through the rearview mirror from time to time, constantly wondering if the child was stupid.


    Half an hour later, Ye Kehuan walked into a high-priced supermarket in the eyes of the public, and rolled her cart to the fruit and vegetable section. The advantage of such a place was that because the price was too high and the flow of people was relatively low, she did not have to worry too much about being discovered, and she would be more comfortable when shopping for goods. The disadvantage was that while prices were high, the freshness of the ingredients was far from the market. But there was no other way, her current national ranking had gone up, and she had to travel cautiously.


    Picking a pineapple that Jiang Laien liked to eat, she chose some more fruits and put them in a bag. Then Ye Kehuan pushed her cart and walked to the meat area. Remembering that Jiang Laien had just said that she wanted to eat barbecue when she fell asleep in the car, Ye Kehuan laughed and picked up a few boxes of fine beef and two boxes of pork belly, plus some other messy things, and put them all into her shopping cart.


    While pushing the cart back to the vegetable area, Ye Kehuan laughed inexplicably when she looked at the items in the cart. In the past, although she could cook by herself, she didn¡¯t do it often, because when she cooked a lot of things carefully, she always felt lonely if she only ate it by herself.


    But now it was different. Ye Kehuan smiled contentedly when she thought of eating with the sleeping piglet later.


    After picking lotus root, shiitake mushroom, and potatoes, Ye Kehuan pushed the cart to get some barbecue sauce and black pepper sauce, and then went to the cashier to check out.


    Half an hour later, when Ye Kehuan returned to the small villa, Jiang Laien was still sleeping, and the house was quiet. In order to not wake her up, Ye Kehuan walked gently, like a cat on tiptoes.


    After carrying the things to the kitchen and closing the kitchen door, Ye Kehuan relaxedly let go of that and started her own business.


    She washed the meat separately, soaked and sliced all the vegetables to be ready, and then put them into fresh-keeping boxes separately, and stuffed them into the fresh-keeping compartment of the refrigerator. After closing the refrigerator door and putting the milk in, Ye Kehuan left the kitchen.


    She cautiously ran upstairs, where she pushed open Jiang Laien¡¯s bedroom door and saw that she was still asleep on the bed, so she walked in and squatted down beside her.


    In her sleep, Jiang Laien was sleeping messily, hiding her face with her hair, and holding a pillow in her arms, looking very cute. Ye Kehuan looked at her with her cheeks supported, and inexplicably sketched out what they looked like when they got old, walking half in hand on a path in a park. Such a picture was very beautiful. There should be such a day, right?


    Thinking about it, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but stretch out her hand to fiddle with the hair at the corner of her lower lip, and let out a sigh.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien opened her eyes in a daze.


    ¡°Wake up?¡± Ye Kehuan put one hand on her wrist, and the other hand continued to play with her hair.


    ¡°En¡­¡± Jiang Laien moved her body slightly, squinting at Ye Kehuan, ¡°Why are you squatting there?¡±


    ¡°Watching you sleep.¡± Ye Kehuan pulled her hair behind her ear.


    ¡°What¡¯s so nice about me sleeping¡­¡±  Jiang Laien muttered, stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, then yawned a little.


    ¡°You don¡¯t understand,¡± Ye Kehuan retracted her hand, ¡°In my heart, you look good in every way. Every angle, every expression, every movement, every moment is beautiful.


    After listening, Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°You are quite good at talking. Why didn¡¯t I find that you could talk like this before?¡±


    Ye Kehuan also smiled, ¡°Want to eat barbecue?¡±


    ¡°Yes, I just dreamed about it.¡± Jiang Laien nodded.


    ¡°Then get up. I bought some meat, which has already been cut, and when I take out the barbecue machine later, it can be grilled and eaten.¡± Ye Kehuan said.


    ¡°Okay!¡± Jiang Laien laughed, and stretched out a lazy wrist, ¡°You have to hug me with love before I get up, otherwise I will sleep in bed.¡±


    After Ye Kehuan listened, she couldn¡¯t help but laugh out loud. She leaned down and hugged her: ¡°Alright?¡±


    ¡°I still can¡¯t get up, what should I do?¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her arms and put them around her back, pouting and acting like a child.


    Ye Kehuan was happy. If Jiang Laien¡¯s fans knew that Jiang Laien had such a cute side in private, they would be surprised. It was a bit that they couldn¡¯t see it. Jiang Laien would show that picture to herself alone.


    ¡°Then, do you want me to carry you down?¡± Ye Kehuan tilted her head and asked in her ear.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Laien nodded like pecking rice.


    Ye Kehuan look at her, let go of her, and then crouched down on the side of the bed, stretched out her hand and patted her shoulder: ¡°Come on, I¡¯ll carry you down.¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Jiang Laien smiled, then she leaned on her back and put her hands crossed in front of her neck.


    ¡°Are the passengers ready? If you¡¯re ready, the plane will take off!¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and asked.


    ¡°Passengers are ready, let¡¯s take off!¡± Jiang Laien nodded and giggled.


    ¡°Yo, xi, one, two, three!¡± After Ye Kehuan finished counting, she suddenly got up and rushed out the door with Jiang Laien on her back. ¡°The plane may be bumpy, please buckle your seatbelt!¡±


    Jiang Laien was so amused by her that she couldn¡¯t help but tighten her hands that were wrapped around her: ¡®It¡¯s fastened!¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan ran down the stairs with Jiang Laien on her back.


    ¡°Is it cool?¡± Ye Kehuan panted and asked after running to the bottom.


    ¡°Cool!¡± Jiang Laien smiled.


    ¡°We have arrived at our destination, do you want to disembark?¡± Ye Kehuan asked with a smile, pacing to the side of the dining table.


    ¡°Yes.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then let go of Ye Kehuan and jumped from her back to the ground.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan turned around again, looked at her, and fiddled with her messy hair: ¡°Are you hungry?¡±


    ¡°Somewhat.¡± Jiang Laien stretched out her hand to caress her belly, frowning slightly.


    ¡°Say that you love me. I¡¯ll get the barbecue machine.¡± Ye Kehuan put her hands on her waist and raised her eyebrows lightly.


    Jiang Laien let out a chuckle: ¡°Idiot.¡±


    ¡°You too.¡± Ye Kehuan brought her closer to her.


    Finally, Jiang Laien smiled: ¡°I love you.¡±


    After speaking, Jiang Laien gently pressed a kiss on her lips. From up close, Jiang Laien watched her drooping eyebrows, with a misty color in her eyes, looking enchanting: ¡°Eat barbecue or me first?¡±


    Jiang Laien¡¯s voice was very soft, but had a kind of deceptive magic power, making one involuntarily fall into it, unable to extricate themselves. Ye Kehuan stared at her gleaming eyes and most and shiny crimson lips, couldn¡¯t help gulping, and finally hugged her soft and boneless body into her arms, and approached her ears. At the same time, she said with difficulty: ¡°What barbecue could be as delicious as you?¡±


    After Jiang Laien got close to her, her heart suddenly thumped, and then she raised her eyes to look at her, and gradually, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her lips. Such a Jiang Laien looked very moving, possessing a kind of temptation that made people unable to resist.


    ¡°You are really a fairy.¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s breathing became deep, staring at her eyes firmly and speaking softly.


    Under Ye Kehuan¡¯s breath, Jiang Laien gulped, her curved neck slightly raised, only to feel that the skin all over her body was prickling like needles, and she whispered, ¡°Really?¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan looked down at her, ¡°All the time, you are tempting me.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien gulped again, then looked at her lips again, and whispered: ¡°It¡¯s obviously that you are thinking about some messy things all day long, even when recording programs¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh? What happened when I was recording the show?¡± Ye Kehuan¡¯s lips gained a grin after listening.


    ¡°That day, in the bed, you, do you dare to say that you had no evil intentions?¡± Jiang Laien¡¯s cheeks were red, and her skin was soft and bouncy, flushed slightly pink, and looking very cute.


    ¡°I did.¡± Ye Kehuan rubbed the tip of her nose, her voice muted. ¡°Didn¡¯t you?¡±


    ¡°I, yes, I did.¡± Jiang Laien said, raising her chin slightly, and at the same time gently put her hands on her shoulders that were faintly exuding heat. The look in her eyes was even more deceptive than before. It was like a little minx.


    Ye Kehuan stared at her, and only felt like a piece of dry soil at that moment, desperately in need of salvation by a spring rain. Her eyes gradually became ambiguous, and then she hugged her tightly, lowered her head, and covered her lips.


    The author has something to say: Happy Singles¡¯ Day~


    I went to meet my girlfriend.

 CH 64

    An hour later, after Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan took showers and came down from the upper floor together, Jiang Laien¡¯s stomach groaned twice, causing her to raise her hand to cover her abdomen. She was a little hungry before, but later she did that kind of thing, and she was now even hungrier.


    ¡°Your stomach screams so happily.¡± Ye Kehuan turned her head and smiled, and even reached out to touch her abdomen.


    ¡°It¡¯s because of you.¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glance and pushed her hand away.


    ¡°Why blame me? Who was it that asked whether I wanted to eat barbecue or her first?¡± Ye Kehuan folded her arms and repeated what Jiang Laien had said before.


    ¡°But, who knew you, who knew you would go for so long¡­¡± Jiang Laien finished speaking, and quickly ran down the stairs with a flushed face.


    Ye Kehuan tied the straps of her pajamas, smiled, and looked at her back, then walked down, and trotted to her side: ¡°Then why do you look so comfortable?¡±


    ¡°You go away.¡± Jiang Laien pushed her away and walked into the kitchen. ¡°Where is the meat?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s in the refrigerator.¡± Ye Kehuan walked to the wall next to the refrigerator and leaned against it.


    ¡°Oh.¡± Jiang Laien nodded, then opened the door of the refrigerator and took out a box of pineapples from inside, ¡°You also bought this?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, don¡¯t you like them?¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    Jiang Laien laughed, opened the lid, and grabbed a piece and chewed it.


    ¡°Is it delicious?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    Jiang Laien nodded while chewing, gave a thumbs up, and then took out several boxes of meat from inside, smiling so that her eyes were bent: ¡°A lot of meat, so good.¡±


    ¡°Haha,¡± Ye Kehuan smiled, stepping to the side and opening the door to a closet, and took out a barbecue machine from inside. ¡°I have had this stuff for a while, but because I was living alone before, I never used it, but now it¡¯s handy.¡±


    Jiang Laien took out a few bottles of drinks, closed the door of the refrigerator, and walked to Ye Kehuan: ¡°I suddenly remembered, you said that you were single and were free to do everything you wanted. You could eat whatever you want, play whenever you want, and no one would stop you. The good life. What about now?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was stunned, turned her head immediately, and looked at her very seriously: ¡°Reporting, if you were not in the world, I would be single, but you are, and I am happy!¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien laughed, and then took a drink and went out first: ¡°You are smart enough.¡±


    Ye Kehuan shook her head with a smile, and then walked out with the barbecue machine.


    After putting everything on the dining table and plugging in the barbecue machine, the two of them started roasting the meat by themselves.


    After the beautifully textured meat was put on the barbecue machine, it was gradually roasted in oil, sizzled, and slowly curled. After roasting, it was dipped in sauce and eaten. The deliciousness was not lost despite not being at a barbecue restaurant. Jiang Laien was very satisfied with the food.


    Ye Kehuan was in charge of cooking and Jiang Laien was in charge of eating. Such days were really leisurely and beautiful.


    However, while eating, Jiang Laien¡¯s cell phone screen suddenly lit up.


    About to grab more meat, Jiang Laien¡¯s chopsticks froze. She put them down and looked at her mobile phone. There she saw the three words Jiang Yijun floating on the screen. Her eyebrows couldn¡¯t help but rise, and the expression on her face became a little unnatural.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°My dad,¡± Jiang Laien answered the phone after uttering those two words softly, and put the phone to her ear, ¡°Hello?¡±


    After turning the meat on the barbecue machine, Ye Kehuan turned to look at Jiang Laien, frowning. Jiang Laien had a fear of Jiang Yijun since she was a child. First was because Jiang Yijun was always expressionless and solemn. Just looking at his face gave people a feeling of inaccessibility. Secondly, Jiang Yijun was always very strict with Jiang Laien, and had a strong desire for control. He always hoped that his daughter would listen to everything he said and must not rebel. If Jiang Laien did not follow his requirements, he was likely to explode.


    Therefore, when Ye Kehuan first met Jiang Laien, Jiang Laien was like that. Because she lived under the authority of her father since she was a child, Jiang Laien had already lost herself a bit. Apart from studying, she was dull in every other sense. Later, because of the expanding businesses of Jiang Yijun and Fan Qiuyue, they often couldn¡¯t return home, and Jiang Laien was freed a little.


    However, even with that, Jiang Yijun would always ask about her grades on the phone. If she dropped even a little bit, punishment would follow, such as removing her nanny and forcing her to live on her own, or deductions in pocket money, or asking teachers to give her extra discipline in class, and so on.


    What was ridiculous was that the reason why her father was so strict with her was only because Fan Qiuyue gave him a daughter, and what he wanted was a son. Fan Qiuyue was unable to bear more children because of her body, so he wanted to make Jiang Laien better than the sons of his brothers and sisters, otherwise he would lose face. It could be said that that feudal dross was deeply ingrained in him, and he reflected that extremely vividly.


    Therefore, Jiang Laien didn¡¯t like staying with her father. Even during the Spring Festival, she would rather stay on the set of a movie, or just spend time with her mother.


    After Ye Kehuan sandwiched some roasted meat into her bowl, she turned her head and looked at Jiang Laien again.


    ¡°What, you mean, you are in Senchuan now?¡± Jiang Laien looked sideways at Ye Kehuan who was sitting next to her, ¡°Oh¡­ because there is something to do here?¡±


    Holding the phone in one hand and the table in the other, Jiang Laien frowned tightly: ¡°I, I¡¯m¡­¡±


    She wanted to say that she was not in Morikawa then, but she just took a picture of eating barbecue at home and posted it on Weibo. It was impossible to lie.


    In the end, Jiang Laien closed her eyes and reported the address.


    ¡°You¡¯ll come here in a while?¡± Looking at the barbecue machine in front of her, Jiang Laien gripped the table tighter, ¡°Oh, okay, do you have a place to stay tonight? Oh, okay. Then, see you later.¡±


    Hanging up the phone, Jiang Laien immediately stood up: ¡°I¡¯m going to clean up the room. If there is something messy, I will be scolded again!¡±


    ¡°Hey--¡± Ye Kehuan looked at her back, hurriedly unplugged the cord of the barbecue machine, and ran upstairs behind Jiang Laien.


    The last time Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Yijun was several years before. She couldn¡¯t forget the scene where Jiang Yijun stood on the stairs and warned Jiang Laien not to engage in homosexuality when she was talking about Ye Kehuan hanging out at their house. That look was really scary. However, Ye Kehuan did not expect that after so many years, Jiang Yijun would still be the same. Although Ye Kehuan hadn¡¯t seen him yet, she had expectations from Jiang Laien¡¯s reaction.


    After entering the room with Jiang Laien, Ye Kehuan helped her clean up the room non-stop.


    Taking out clothes from the suitcase, folding them and putting them in the closet, putting boxes away and into cabinets. The bottles and cans on the dressing table were all neatly arranged, the quilt was made up, the sheets were pulled flat, the stool was placed under the table, and the ground was quickly cleaned. After everything was sorted out, Jiang Laien let out a sigh of relief, lifted her phone to check the time, and wiped the sweat from her forehead.


    Finally, both of them changed their clothes and went downstairs together.


    ¡°Will your dad stay here tonight?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    Jiang Laien shook her head: ¡°He¡¯ll stay at a hotel. Besides, although there are extra guest rooms here, there are no shops.¡±


    ¡°So he just came to have a look?¡± Ye Kehuan sat back down next to the barbecue machine with Jiang Laien.


    ¡°Yes, but,¡± Jiang Laien stroked her head and raised her hand to support her forehead, ¡°it should be nothing good. Generally speaking, he doesn¡¯t come to see me when he is in a good mood.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Is he still the same as before?¡±


    ¡°Pretty much.¡± Jiang Laien turned her head, picked up a bottle of drink, and drank quietly while lowering her head to the straw.


    The only difference was that the current Jiang Yijun was not as loving as when she was younger, but he wouldn¡¯t be picky on trivial things like before either. But that did not mean that he was not scary. Because he was still trying to make Jiang Laien follow his chosen path in life.


    ¡°How is that okay? You are an independent person, and he is not qualified to control you.¡± Ye Kehuan frowned.


    ¡°I can¡¯t talk about controlling or anything. Now, it¡¯s okay. In fact, it doesn¡¯t matter if my room is not cleaned. At most, he¡¯ll just say a few words rather than scolding me to death. But, I have probably formed a kind of conditioned reflex.¡± Jiang Laien smiled helplessly when she said that, and continued to bite her straw.


    Ye Kehuan sighed, stretched out her hand, and put it on her lap.


    ¡°You know, I¡¯m just a little confused,¡± Jiang Laien raised her eyes and looked at the ceiling, her beautiful eyes seemingly covered with water vapor, ¡°I don¡¯t even know whether he loves me or not.¡±


    ¡°Laien¡­¡±


    ¡°I just think that he is so sick, and his psychology is distorted. Even if he is harsh on me because he wants me to be successful, I absolutely do not agree that it is love,¡± Jiang Laien sniffled, unconsciously shaking her head, ¡°Love is not like this. It is not.¡±


    Sometimes Jiang Laien really envied Ye Kehuan¡¯s family. She still remembered the peaceful scene she saw when she was a guest at Ye Kehuan¡¯s house. For example, the family sitting together watching TV, eating, and chatting would be a very luxurious thing at her house. First of all, Jiang Yijun would not allow people to watch TV while eating. Secondly, what Jiang Yijun liked to watch was always sports programs, and he never cared about what anyone else wanted to watch. So, every time, she and her mother went back to their rooms to watch TV.


    Later, after she bought a house for herself, she rarely went back to that house. This year, she went back only once to shoot the last variety show.


    ¡°Laien.¡± Seeing Jiang Laien distracted, Ye Kehuan leaned over and hugged her gently.


    ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Jiang Laien was taken aback for a moment when she returned to reality, and then smiled.


    Ye Kehuan nodded, but still hugged her motionlessly.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Are you so soft?¡± Jiang Laien laughed.


    Ye Kehuan shook her head: ¡°Nothing, I just want to protect you, protect you for the rest of your life.¡±


    Jiang Laien immediately laughed happily after hearing that: ¡°Okay, then we¡¯re all set.¡±


    ¡°Yeah.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded, and stroked her hair with a smile.


    At that moment, the doorbell rang suddenly, and Jiang Laien was taken aback, then got up from Ye Kehuan¡¯s arms and ran to the door. Pressing the answer button on the digital doorbell, Jiang Laien saw her father in a suit and leather shoes standing at the door outside.


    After Jiang Laien saw him, she raised her hand to unlock the door and slowly opened the door. After that, Jiang Laien opened the villa door and looked out again. Not long after, she saw Jiang Yijun carrying a briefcase and striding over without an expression. At the same time, an old man holding a cane followed behind him.


    The old man was Jiang Laien¡¯s grandfather, Jiang Fugui.


    After Jiang Yijun approached the door, he asked, ¡°What¡¯s the smell?¡±


    ¡°Barbecue.¡± Jiang Laien replied.


    ¡°Okay.¡± Jiang Yijun nodded, and stretched out his hand to straighten his tie.


    At the same time, Jiang Fugui slowly poked his head in from the side, and then stood next to Jiang Yijun.


    ¡°Hey, grandpa, you are here too?¡± Jiang Laien was a little surprised. In the doorbell video, she did not see Jiang Fugui coming. Of course, it could also be because Jiang Fugui was old and short, so it was blocked.


    ¡°Ahem, yeah,¡± Jiang Fugui smiled, holding a cane, ¡°Grandpa misses you!¡±


    Unlike Jiang Yijun, Jiang Fugui was very kind and always smiled, which made people feel good when looking at him.


    At that moment, Ye Kehuan also trotted over and looked at them: ¡°Esteemed Uncle Jiang, Esteemed Grandpa!¡±


    ¡°Hey, okay, okay!¡± When Jiang Fugui saw Ye Kehuan, joy burst into his eyes.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan, Jiang Yijun looked her up and down: ¡®You also live here?¡±


    ¡°Yes.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s been a long time.¡± Jiang Yijun looked at Ye Kehuan with a strange expression.


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s been a long time.¡± Ye Kehuan was a little leery of him.


    ¡°I¡¯ve watched a few episodes of your variety show.¡± Jiang Yijun said, walking to the sofa and sitting down.


    ¡°Haha, have you?¡± Ye Kehuan also helped Jiang Fugui walk over, while Jiang Laien reached out and closed the door.


    ¡°The Ye family is really big and can buy millions worth of gifts for friends on a whim.¡± Jiang Yijun looked at Ye Kehuan steadily. He did watch several episodes, and even read a lot of comments from everyone on the Internet, including various fan animations of the two of them. Of course, he also watched the variety show that they participated in together called ¡°The Food Is Ready¡±, mainly seeing the clips chosen by netizens. That¡¯s why he came there.


    Jiang Laien¡¯s eyebrows couldn¡¯t help but furrow. What did Jiang Yijun mean? In his words, she felt that there were messages hidden.


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, she smiled slightly: ¡°Laien is not just as simple as an ordinary friend to me. I¡¯ll go and pour you a glass of water.¡±


    After letting Jiang Fugui sit down, Ye Kehuan turned and walked towards the tap. Jiang Yijun looked at Ye Kehuan¡¯s back with a weird expression. To be honest, if it weren¡¯t for the Ye family¡¯s wealth and power, he really wouldn¡¯t show Ye Kehuan any face. Her personality was too girly, and at the same time, she was too ambiguous with Jiang Laien. That was enough for the camera, but he didn¡¯t expect them to live together in reality.


    But Jiang Fugui looked at Ye Kehuan with a different expression. He had met Ye Kehuan several times before, and he sometimes met her alone. They would drink tea, play chess, and chat and play together. As an old rascal boy, he could be said to like Ye Kehuan. He got cheerful just by being around her.


    After that, Jiang Laien, who closed the door, walked over and sat down on a single sofa next to her father. She didn¡¯t want to be too close to him, so she was a little bit resistant.


    After Jiang Yijun looked at his daughter for a while, he looked at Ye Kehuan on the side, and immediately spoke sarcastically: ¡°You two have a really good relationship, just like what the netizens said.¡±


    After listening, Jiang Laien turned her head to look at him quickly, gulping: ¡°Dad, just tell me, is there anything wrong with me, suddenly coming here today?¡±


    Jiang Fugui ignored their chat, but kept looking at Ye Kehuan with a smile.


    Jiang Yijun looked at Jiang Laien for a long time, then took out a tablet from his briefcase, unlocked it, opened an album, enlarged a picture, and threw the tablet in front of Jiang Laien.


    The picture showed a man who looked like he was in his thirties. He was average-looking and thin, with triangular eyes.


    When Jiang Laien saw it, she turned her head to the side instantly.


    At the same time, Ye Kehuan, who was holding a water cup, walked over. After seeing the photos on the tablet, a bad premonition rose in her heart, but she still passed the water to the two elders without saying a word.


    ¡°Liu Guoliang, 32 years old, general manager of Shengrong Food Co., Lld., has a good family background, good job, good financial resources. You can meet when you have time.¡± Jiang Yijun held up the water glass and sipped.


    ¡°I¡¯m not going.¡± Jiang Laien replied without thinking.


    ¡°Why?¡± Jiang Yijun squeezed the cup tightly.


    ¡°He¡¯s ugly.¡± Jiang Laien pushed the tablet back to him.


    ¡°This is the reason? The last time he was tall and handsome, why didn¡¯t you want it?¡± Jiang Yijun stared at her firmly.


    Jiang Laien put her hands on her knees and let out a sigh: ¡°I just don¡¯t like him, so I don¡¯t want a blind date. It¡¯s that simple, do you understand?¡±


    When Jiang Yijun heard that, he suddenly slammed the water glass heavily on the table, and the sound instantly frightened Jiang Laien stiff. Upon seeing that, Ye Kehuan hurriedly sat next to Jiang Laien and asked in a low voice, ¡°Are you okay?¡±


    Jiang Laien shook her head and pressed her lips tightly.


    ¡°You don¡¯t want to go, and you said you don¡¯t like him, but you don¡¯t know anything about him. Have you talked? Been in contact? How do you know that you don¡¯t like him?¡± Jiang Yijun asked one after another. At the same time, seeing Ye Kehuan being so intimate with her, another surge of irritation appeared in his heart.


    When Jiang Fugui heard that, he couldn¡¯t help frowning.


    ¡°Dad, let me take charge of my own affairs, okay? I am no longer a child, you know? I used to listen to you for all kinds of big and small things, is that not enough? I am also an independent individual. My life is obviously my own decision.¡± Jiang Laien closed her eyes, then turned to look at him, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.


    ¡°What do you mean by that, do you think I am just thinking for myself? Who doesn¡¯t want their children to do well in the world? I just want you to stay on the right track, but you think I¡¯m too harsh?¡± Jiang Yijun said, turning red, and he knocked the coffee table with his hand, ¡°What an ungrateful thing!¡±


    Listening to his speech, Jiang Laien suddenly snarled: ¡°I don¡¯t think I can communicate with you.¡±


    The father and daughter pair were filled with gunpowder, and Ye Kehuan was surprised to see it.


    That kind of scene, in the Ye family, was absolutely impossible to see. Even when they were very angry, her parents would not educate her by yelling or beating. Looking at Jiang Yijun in front of her, it was as if he could grow a giant mouth to eat people at any time.


    ¡°In short, you must go on a blind date this time,¡± Jiang Yijun pointed to the tablet, ¡°tomorrow.¡±


    In the next second, Jiang Laien said: ¡°I won¡¯t go.¡±


    ¡°Marriage and childbirth are something everyone has to go through. You are already twenty-seven, not eighteen years old. What time do you have left to spend? You don¡¯t even have a stable family. Do you still want to be a happy woman?¡± Jiang Yijun said. After that, he tapped his fingers on the tablet again, his expression serious.


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she suddenly laughed: ¡°Happiness? Are you happy? Are you? Do you think my mother is happy? So what if you two form a family? In public you are in harmony with each other and pretend to be affectionate. But in private? You¡¯re no different from strangers. Is this called happiness? A marriage without love is what sadness is. If you want to deceive yourself, then deceive yourself. Why do you want me to follow your old ways?!¡±


    When Jiang Laien said that, her shoulders trembled slightly, uncontrollably.


    Jiang Fugui also listened with his heart.


    Upon seeing that, Ye Kehuan hurriedly pressed her shoulders, hoping to relax her. However, Jiang Laien still looked very excited. It could be said that Ye Kehuan had never seen Jiang Laien look so out of control before.


    After listening to what Jiang Laien said, Jiang Yijun¡¯s lips tightened, and his hands trembled slightly with anger: ¡°Okay, you are really grown up, you know how to attack you father and talk back to me now?¡±


    When Jiang Laien heard that, she laughed again: ¡°I¡¯m attacking you? Am I not telling the truth?¡±


    Ye Kehuan saw Jiang Yijun¡¯s expression and hurriedly looked at Jiang Yijun: ¡°Uncle, what Laien meant is that everyone understands happiness differently, and everyone should have a choice for themselves. Happiness is very subjective. Only the person concerned can feel it, and there is no way for others to feel it on behalf of them. Just as it is impossible for Laien to perceive whether you are truly happy from your perspective, and you do not know what real happiness is for Laien.¡±


    Jiang Yijun heard that and looked at Ye Kehuan. If she weren¡¯t Ye Bingquan¡¯s child, he would tell her to shut up and leave.


    ¡°I¡¯m talking to her.¡± In the end, Jiang Yijun said, with a grimace forming on his lips.


    ¡°But she was right. What she said is what I want to say.¡± Jiang Laien immediately turned her head and looked at him.


    At that moment, the smell of gunpowder between the father and daughter pair seemed to be stronger than before.


    Jiang Fugui¡¯s gaze wandered among the three of them, trying to speak, but a little stuck.


    ¡°You never talked back to me before.¡± Jiang Yijun put his hands on his knees, the back of his hands bulging.


    ¡°Rabbits will bite people when they are anxious, not to mention that I am still a living person.¡± Jiang Laien was really fed up with him. Sometimes Jiang Laien wondered, if she didn¡¯t meet Ye Kehuan, who was optimistic, cheerful, and playful, would she live like a pool of stagnant water all her life and never see the light?


    Jiang Yijun slowly squeezed his hand into a fist: ¡°Then tell me what your happiness is, and what happiness you want to pursue is like.¡±


    Jiang Laien looked at him, tightening her lips, and for a moment, she could not speak.


    At that moment, Jiang Yijun raised his hand into the air, and suddenly pointed at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Is it her?¡±


    Both Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien lost their breaths, and their eyes bulged in disbelief.


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Fugui craned his neck instantly.


    After seeing their reaction, Jiang Yijun immediately understood: ¡°Sure enough?¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡± At that moment, Jiang Laien, who was sitting with her back straight, looked at her father and let out all the air in her chest, ¡°I like her! I don¡¯t want anyone except her!¡±


    After Jiang Yijun heard that, his face suddenly showed a sullen expression. After that, Jiang Yijun stood up, walked in front of Jiang Laien, looked at Ye Kehuan and finally raised his hand and slapped Jiang Laien¡¯s face vigorously: ¡°Asshole! Shameless thing!¡±


    Upon seeing that, Jiang Fugui picked up his cane and prepared to hit Jiang Yijun. However, at that time, Jiang Laien was suddenly pulled aside by Ye Kehuan¡¯s hands, causing Jiang Yijun to hit the air harmlessly.


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Jiang Fugui took back his cane.


    Ye Kehuan guarded Jiang Laien behind her back and looked at Jiang Yijun: ¡°You¡¯re all grown-ups, but what are you trying to do? You are deliberately insulting, beating, and hurting others. If you do it again, I will call 110 for the police!¡±


    Hearing that, Jiang Yijun smiled and said, ¡°I am disciplining my daughter. You said I deliberately hurt others? My daughter is my family member, if I can¡¯t who is allowed to beat her?¡±


    Ye Kehuan stared at him and didn¡¯t retreat in the slightest: ¡°According to what you said, if your daughter thinks that you are arrogant and have interfered heavily in her life, she can slap you and say it¡¯s just educating her family?¡±


    When Jiang Yijun heard that, he was so angry that he burst out, ¡°What kind of misconception, that is not filial piety, it is just a rebellion!¡±


    Ye Kehuan still didn¡¯t admit defeat: ¡°According to what you said, why is it that you have been abusing your daughter? Even wild tigers don¡¯t eat their children. She was beaten by you since she was young. Does that just mean that you have lost your conscience?


    Ye Kehuan really couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. Since childhood, Jiang Yijun as a father, for Jiang Laien, was really worse than none.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Yijun was so angry that he finally squeezed his fist and blurted out, ¡°I¡¯m your **** uncle!¡±


    Ye Kehuan¡¯s sharp tongue: ¡°My uncle did something wrong again. He has been dead for more than ten years.¡±


    *pa* *pa* ¡°Well said!¡± At that moment, Jiang Fugui suddenly clapped his hands. In an instant, everyone looked at him.


    Jiang Fugui stood up using his cane, walked slowly to Ye Kehuan, and took out his mobile phone: ¡°Oh¡­ You are such a cute kid. Let¡¯s add WeChats!¡±


    Jiang Yijun fainted.

 CH 65

    After listening to Jiang Fugui¡¯s words, Ye Kehuan came back to her senses, stopped looking at Jiang Yijun, and smiled and nodded.


    After that, Ye Kehuan took out her mobile phone casually, opened WeChat, and looked at Jiang Fugui: ¡°Grandpa has started using WeChat now?¡±


    ¡°Yeah, I not only use this now, but I also play Werewolf Killing Miles.¡± Grandpa Jiang laughed while holding his phone.


    In fact, he was quite old. It stood to reason that people at his age should have no energy to learn new things, but he was different. He liked to learn and try whatever new things he saw. He didn¡¯t like being around young people though. When chatting with them, he found that he couldn¡¯t get involved, and he couldn¡¯t keep up with the Internet¡¯s feelings about modern society. So now, he just plays all kinds of social games.


    ¡°Awesome! Let¡¯s have a match another day?¡± Ye Kehuan raised her eyebrows after scanning the QR code and adding Jiang Fugui. She also played that game.


    ¡°Good, good!¡± Jiang Fugui said happily after listening, ¡°Are there any other fun games you can recommend me?¡±


    Ye Kehuan smiled heartily: ¡°Definitely, definitely!¡±


    Jiang Laien, who was originally very nervous, had relaxed a lot in an instant after such a scene, and then walked to Jiang Fugui: ¡°Add me too, okay?¡±


    ¡°Okay, okay?¡± Jiang Fugui stretched out his hand and held Jiang Laien¡¯s hand, his eyes narrowed from his smile.


    ¡°Dad?!¡± At that moment, Jiang Yijun, who was left hanging aside, looked at Jiang Fugui, with ¡®incredulous¡¯ written on his face. He was really going to be finished off on the spot by the three people in front of him.


    He couldn¡¯t have imagined that his dad would have abandoned him at this time, and even had a relationship with a yellow-haired girl from a foreign family. Was this still his real dad? The person who prevented his son from going to Taiwan? If his mother was still alive, he would definitely not see such a scene, right? 1


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Jiang Fugui slowly put his phone in his pocket, held his cane in both hands, and looked at him.


    ¡°Are you aware of the seriousness of this matter?!¡± Jiang Yijun strode forward, glanced at Ye Kehuan next to him, swept his gaze to Jiang Laien on the other side, and looked at Jiang Fugui again, and stretched out his hand in the air to show his helplessness.


    ¡°I know what I know,¡± Jiang Fugui closed his eyes and nodded, ¡°You want to kill my lovely granddaughter.¡±


    Jiang Fugui was always able to speak in a light tone to make people want to vomit blood, smiling while stabbing them with a knife.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Yijun looked at him, instantly boiling with anger, fuming, and couldn¡¯t say more.


    In the end, Jiang Yijun¡¯s face was red and his neck was thick: ¡°Nonsense, when was I going to kill her? I just want to educate her!¡± 2


    ¡°Bah!¡± Jiang Fugui raised his cane and tapped towards him: ¡°When En¡¯er was in elementary school, you almost beat her to death once, don¡¯t think I forgot!¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s how long ago¡­¡±


    ¡°I have a grudge.¡± Jiang Fugui stared at Jiang Yijun with a serious face.


    He really liked his little granddaughter. He had several children and several grandchildren, but his favorite was Jiang Laien. But because Jiang Yijun was a really headstrong and irritable person, he always felt very sorry for Jiang Laien. When Jiang Laien was young, as long as he had nothing to do, he would accompany Jiang Laien, or let Jiang Laien spend her winter and summer vacations with him.


    After Jiang Yijun heard Jiang Fugui¡¯s words, he blushed and waved his hand: ¡°I¡¯m not talking about that. I mean, are you aware of what your granddaughter is doing right now?¡±


    ¡°She¡¯s working hard as an actress,¡± Jiang Fugui answered, turning his head to look at Jiang Laien with a smile, ¡°When will your new movie be broadcast?¡±


    Jiang Yijun listened and wanted to vomit blood, and hands slowly rising from his hips until he folded his arms: ¡°I¡¯m not talking about that, I mean, do you know what the two of them are doing?!


    Jiang Yijun stretched out his hand to Jiang Laien, then pointed to Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan looked up at him with cold eyes. Although he was Jiang Laien¡¯s father, he is really bad. Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t want to respect him too much. Jiang Laien looked at her grandfather to the left or her and her girlfriend to her right.


    ¡°They, they¡­¡± Jiang Yijun¡¯s finger was shaking in the air, ¡°They are being gay!¡±


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Fugui listened, turned his head to look at his granddaughter, then looked at Ye Kehuan next to her, and finally nodded, ¡°I know.¡±


    ¡°You, you know?!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not deaf. I heard everything from when you just quarreled.¡± Jiang Fugui¡¯s expression seemed to be saying that there was no big deal.


    ¡°Then you¡­¡± Jiang Yijun felt even more incredulous. ¡°Do you know what homosexuality means? Not only that they are good girlfriends, but that they are just like men and women¡­ You know?¡±


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Fugui looked at Jiang Yijun, his eyes widened, and then turned to look at Ye Kehuan, ¡°Are you going to marry my precious?¡±


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, her face turned red. She coughed, turned her head, and looked at Jiang Laien next to her, and then at Jiang Fugui: ¡°Grandpa, you¡­¡±


    She still felt disbelief. Although she knew that Laien¡¯s grandfather had always been a very fashionable old man, and his thoughts were not conservative at all, and he loved Jiang Laien very much, she still didn¡¯t think he would accept homosexuality so easily. After all, that topic was still a reverse scale for many elders, and it could even instantly turn a gentle and lovely mother into a shrew holding a kitchen knife and shouting that she would kill you. 3


    Jiang Fugui clenched his cane again and asked, ¡°Do you want to?¡±


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and gently rubbed her nose and nodded, her cheeks a little hot.


    Jiang Fugui smiled and turned his head to look at Jiang Laien: ¡°Then, precious, what about you, do you want to marry Kehuan?¡±


    Jiang Laien didn¡¯t know what medicine her grandfather was peddling, but she nodded and said softly, ¡°Yes.¡± 4


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± Jiang Fugui turned his head and looked at Jiang Yijun, ¡°That¡¯s that.¡±


    To be honest, he really liked Ye Kehuan. In addition to finding Ye Kehuan interesting, he also felt that Ye Kehuan was really good to his granddaughter, and she was very courageous. Regarding the incident just then, he estimated that many people would be swayed when facing such an irritable Jiang Yijun. Even if it was a man, they may stop Jiang Yijun from hitting someone, but after they did, they would definitely try to talk him down and soothe him, basically continuing to condone his bad temper.


    But Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t, and Ye Kehuan could have. Moreover, Jiang Laien lacked such a partner who protected her at all times and was able to stand in front of her.


    ¡°Dad?¡± Jiang Yijun was even more incredulous this time. He had no idea how his father¡¯s brain circuits were operating. ¡°Don¡¯t you object?¡±


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help raising their hands to cover their lips when they heard Jiang Fugui¡¯s words, and looked at each other dumbfoundedly. So, what Grandpa meant was that not only did he not object, but he supported them?


    ¡°The two of them are in agreement, and they didn¡¯t take this lightly. Feelings are people¡¯s own businesses, and is it your turn to oppose nature?¡± Jiang Fugui put it rightly and methodically.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Yijun was about to vomit blood and fall to the ground. ¡°But they are homosexuals, do you not know that homosexuality is against the laws of nature?! Since ancient times, the combination of yin and yang has allowed all things to grow endlessly. If everyone engages in homosexuality like them, the world would end and humans would go extinct. From the perspective of natural law, it shows that they are pathological and unreasonable!¡±


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± A hint of sarcasm crept onto Jiang Fugui¡¯s face, ¡°You are quite great, so concerned about the common people. Your love surpasses all boundaries, and your logic is so perfect. Why can¡¯t you understand that existence is the simplest truth?¡±


    Jiang Yijun scratched his next: ¡°Existence¡­ I won¡¯t debate this, so I will ask you, do you know what others will say about their morbid love?¡±


    ¡°I know,¡± Jiang Fugui continued with a smile, ¡°there are their support clubs on Weibo. I often go in to chat, and everyone says it¡¯s cute.¡±


    ¡°Grandpa, you go to our CP page?¡± Ye Kehuan felt that she had opened the door to a new world.


    Jiang Fugui chuckled: ¡°Yeah, yeah, they even write novels for you, but I can¡¯t get into things too much yet, it gives me a headache, so I chat!¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled, only to feel that huge rock fell to the ground from her heart. Although her father tried his best to oppose, as long as her grandfather was on her side, she would have nothing to fear. After all, the elders of the Jiang family would always have the greatest say.


    Jiang Yijun raised his hand to cover his chest: ¡°I¡¯m talking about reality. Go out and ask and see how many people can accept their deformed relationship!¡±


    After Jiang Fugui listened, there was a trace of contempt in his eyes: ¡°If you believe yourself to be right, go your own way, and let others talk.¡±


    Jiang Yijun nodded, then took out his phone and pulled up the address book: ¡°Don¡¯t talk about others, just ask Fan Qiuyue to see how she will react. They want to be together, and I am definitely not the only objector!¡±


    Jiang Fugui did not answer the conversation and even yawned.


    At that time, Jiang Laien¡¯s heart rate was also raised instantly, feeling a little at a loss. She didn¡¯t care about her father, but she still cared about her mother and didn¡¯t want her mother to be hurt by this incident. But at the same time¡­ Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan. She couldn¡¯t leave Ye Kehuan either, she simply loved Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien, stretched out her hand, and walked around behind her grandfather, held Jiang Laien, and applied a little force, beckoning her to not worry too much.


    At the same time, Fan Qiuyue¡¯s phone finally answered.


    After dialing, Jiang Yijun pressed the speaker option: ¡°Qiuyue.¡±


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter, tell me.¡± Fan Qiuyue¡¯s voice sounded cold and faint during the call.


    After all, the couple hadn¡¯t really talked about anything for a long time, and contacting each other was basically because of some affairs.


    Jiang Yijun got straight to the point: ¡°I am here with my daughter now. Moreover, I have discovered an extraordinary thing.¡±


    ¡°Well, say it.¡± Fan Qiuyue¡¯s voice came through the phone.


    Jiang Yijun closed his eyes: ¡°Jiang Laien is gay.¡±


    ¡°What?¡± There was finally a hint of emotion in Fan Qiuyue¡¯s voice.


    At that moment, Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan both held their breaths. What did Fan Qiuyue¡¯s reaction show?


    Seeing that a normal person finally had the same reaction as his own, Jiang Yijun felt confident in his heart, and instantly raised the phone: ¡°Jiang Laien and Ye Kehuan, they are not good girlfriends at all. They are in love. Did you know?¡±


    Jiang Laien couldn¡¯t help holding Ye Kehuan¡¯s hand together.


    On the other side of the phone, Fan Qiuyue was silent for a while.


    ¡°Hello?¡± Jiang Yijun frowned.


    At that time, they heard Fan Qiuyue talking to herself: ¡°It turns out that what Sister Ling said that day meant this¡­¡±


    ¡°Hello? What are you talking about? Jiang Yijun frowned even deeper.


    Fan Qiuyue was still talking to herself: ¡°Actually, I also thought that there was something wrong with them, but it¡¯s just that, I didn¡¯t expect it to be this way¡­¡±


    ¡°Hello?¡± Jiang Yijun was stunned, ¡°So, what do you think? Are you going to let them develop like this?¡±


    At that time, Fan Qiuyue finally came back to her senses: ¡°Otherwise, what should I do, learn from my parents and separate me from the person I like, and then forcefully marry me to you? I don¡¯t want to be such a big villain anymore. It¡¯s up to her to choose how to live her own life. I won¡¯t intervene. Don¡¯t talk about this for now, let¡¯s talk about divorce first.¡±


    ¡°You¡­¡± Jiang Yijun turned off the speaker in an instant, and looked at the three people who were looking at him. Holding his phone and pacing to the side, he said in a low voice: ¡°What about a divorce? You¡¯re not young. What do you want others to think about the divorce?¡±


    On the other side of the phone, Fan Qiuyue¡¯s voice was cold: ¡°I care what others think? Why should I want my life to be ruined under the eyes of others? I am not living for others. I have no feelings for you and can¡¯t live with you. It is better for me to not have you, so I want to leave. It is as simple as that. I have already drawn up the document and sent it to your mailbox. You can take a look at it when you have time.¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Jiang Yijun was so angry that his chest was heaving, and he felt as though the sky was about to collapse.


    For a long time, because he and Fan Qiuyue had pretended to be very affectionate in front of others, people around them called them a model couple, and envied them. With a divorce all of a sudden, where would he put his face?


    ¡°Qiuyue, I firmly disagree with this matter.¡± Jiang Yijun looked down at the ground.


    However, Fan Qiuyue sneered: ¡°I don¡¯t care about you, isn¡¯t it just for the sake of face? Why should I always wrong myself for your face? If you don¡¯t agree, I will sue for divorce.¡±


    Afterwards, Fan Qiuyue hung up the phone.


    Jiang Yijun slowly put down the phone and looked at the screen, making everyone confused.


    Then, he looked at the three people in the room: ¡°Anyway, I firmly disagree with you about this matter¡­¡±


    ¡°Your opinion is shit.¡± Jiang Fugui dismissed Jiang Yijun¡¯s words instantly, and then grabbed Ye Kehuan with one hand and Jiang Laien with the other, ¡°I agree.¡±


    TL/N


    1 - Ye Kehuan has black hair. This is just an expression for something completely foreign.


    2 - Various ways of saying that he is shameless.


    3 - Chinese (and some others) legends say that dragons have a single reverse scale, which is their most sensitive spot.


    4 - Shady Chinese merchants sell shady medicines. Shady merchants in the West sell snake oil. Basically the same, as it turns out.

 CH 66

    Jiang Yijun finally turned and left in anger, preparing to rush back overnight to find Fan Qiuyue: ¡°I¡¯m too lazy to argue with you! I still have something to do now! Dad, I¡¯m leaving now, you can go home with your assistant tomorrow.¡±


    After watching him leave, Jiang Fugui didn¡¯t follow out. Instead, he shook his head, sat on the sofa again, raised his hand, and patted his shoulder.


    ¡°Grandpa, I¡¯ll beat your shoulders!¡± Ye Kehuan immediately walked around behind him when she saw it, and beat him on his shoulders with great enthusiasm.


    ¡°Ohhhhh, good, very comfortable. Jiang Fugui grinned openly.


    ¡°Grandpa, here is some tea.¡± Jiang Laien also opened a drawer, pulled out a packet of tea, boiled the water and soaked it, poured a small cup, and handed it to Jiang Fugui.


    ¡°Delicious, delicious.¡± Jiang Fugui gave a thumbs up.


    Ye Kehuan changed her technique: ¡°Grandpa, I really didn¡¯t expect that you would agree with us.¡±


    Jiang Fugui smiled and shook his head: ¡°Do you know what I am most afraid of when I¡¯ve lived to this age?¡±


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head: ¡°What?¡±


    ¡°Of course its death.¡± Jiang Fugui said.


    ¡°Grandpa, you are such a good person, you¡¯ll live on and on and on and on until a thousand years!¡± That topic was a bit heavy, and Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t even think about it.


    Jiang Laien, who had been clearing up the coffee table, also paused.


    ¡°Haha,¡± Jiang Fugui laughed loudly, ¡°A thousand-year-old tortoise, I am neither a bastard nor a tortoise.¡± 1


    Ye Kehuan gave a light cough, ¡°I just think that kind of thing must be very far away.¡±


    Jiang Fugui laughed: ¡°I just want to say that what I fear most now is death. No person, rich or poor, famous or unknown, will ever escape death. For all things, it¡¯s all about life and death, there¡¯s no need to dig out the details. Happiness is the most important thing. Otherwise, your whole life will be in vain. Since you are going to die anyway, why not choose what you like while you are living, why should you embarrass yourself, right?¡±


    Jiang Laien nodded gently. She had liked chatting with her grandfather since she was a child. Every time she chatted with the old man, she felt like her heart was soothed. Jiang Fugui had such a magical power.


    ¡°If you like money, then make money. If you like to travel around the mountains and play, then go out. If you don¡¯t want to get married, then don¡¯t get married. If you like a girl, then chase her. It¡¯s a simple truth, but unfortunately, some people just don¡¯t understand it. It should be like this, but many ignore it and don¡¯t choose to be themselves. As long as they don¡¯t commit crimes, it should be their own business, and outsiders are not qualified to interfere.¡± After Jiang Fugui finished speaking, he laughed happily.


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°As expected of Grandpa, what you said makes sense.¡±


    Jiang Fugui smiled: ¡°It¡¯s not difficult. This is probably the perception I have from living for so long. So, I also hope that the people I love, like my granddaughter, can have what they really want. Happiness. Let every smile be a smile from the heart. If that is the case, I will be satisfied.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°Well, Grandpa, don¡¯t worry, I will treat Laien well in the future, and make her smile brighter day by day.¡±


    Jiang Laien sat next to him, laughed, and then felt her nose was slightly sore because she was touched. Holding Jiang Fugui¡¯s arm, Jiang Laien leaned her head on his shoulder: ¡°Sure enough, Grandpa is the best.¡±


    ¡°Hey, of course!¡± Jiang Fugui was not modest.


    Then, the room burst into laughter.


    In the middle of the night, the two of them returned to their villa after sending Grandpa Jiang back to the hotel together.


    ¡°Your mom really wants to divorce your dad?¡± Ye Kehuan picked up the barbecue machine on the table and walked to the kitchen.


    ¡°Well, she has actually thought about it for several years, but she hadn¡¯t made up her mind.¡± After Jiang Laien threw the food residue on the table into the trash can, she followed Ye Kehuan with the plates.


    ¡°Yes, it must be very tiring to spend time with someone like your dad.¡± After Ye Kehuan disassembled the barbecue machine, she picked up the soap and prepared to clean it.


    ¡°It¡¯s more than tiring, she always wanted to cry but had no tears. So in the early years, my mother had been working hard to develop her career and strive for complete independence. That way, a divorce wouldn¡¯t ruin her quality of life. Later, she became independent. Maybe it¡¯s because she¡¯s getting older, and she thought it was okay if they didn¡¯t bother each other. But in recent years, my dad has become more and more weird, and she really can¡¯t stand it. This time it¡¯s probably because she heard what your mother said, so she really made up her mind,¡± Jiang Laien also rolled up her sleeves, ¡°the two of them should settle it soon.¡±


    Ye Kehuan nodded: ¡°He really hurt you and your mother.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and shook her head: ¡°It¡¯s okay, anyway, I met you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help but laugh when she heard that: ¡°That¡¯s great, so now, we can say that we have successfully come out at your house?¡±


    ¡°We should¡­¡± Jiang Laien squeezed the plate and nodded, ¡°I think we can. If my mother disagreed, she would directly ask my dad to put me on and then chat with me.¡±


    Jiang Laien was quite aware of her mother¡¯s temperament.


    ¡°That¡¯s great.¡± Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help sighing again, and then let out another sigh of relief.


    At that time, while rushing to the airport, Jiang Yijun received a message from his secretary. The phone number of Ye Kehuan¡¯s father, Ye Bingquan, was displayed on it.


    Jiang Fugui was right, what he said was nothing, but if Ye Kehuan¡¯s parents knew it, it wouldn¡¯t be so. Even if Jiang Fugui agreed to that matter, if the Ye family disagreed, then Jiang Fugui¡¯s words were also considered shit.


    Thinking of that, Jiang Yijun dialed the number. After a while, the phone rung, and Ye Bingquan¡¯s voice came out from it: ¡°Hello?¡±


    Jiang Yijun heard the sound and coughed twice: ¡°Is this Bingquan?¡±


    ¡°Ah, yes, you are?¡± Ye Bingquan¡¯s voice sounded quite mild.


    ¡°I¡¯m Yijun,¡± Jiang Yijun added, ¡°Jiang Laien¡¯s father.¡±


    ¡°Oh, it¡¯s you, long time no see, what¡¯s the matter?¡± Ye Bingquan asked.


    ¡°I discovered something today. I think, as Ye Kehuan¡¯s father, you need to know the truth.¡±


    Jiang Yijun sighed, and after a moment, he said, ¡°Your daughter is gay, and she is in love with my daughter now.¡±


    Ye Kehuan and Jiang Laien had just started to clean their things when Ye Kehuan¡¯s cell phone rang. Drying her hands, Ye Kehuan picked up the phone, and saw Ye Bingquan¡¯s name displayed.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter?¡± Jiang Laien asked.


    ¡°My dad called me suddenly. He normally wouldn¡¯t call me at this time.¡± Ye Kehuan looked at Jiang Laien.


    Jiang Laien frowned, thought for a moment, and muttered: ¡°Could it be my dad who told him about the two of us? That is what my dad would do.¡±


    Ye Kehuan squeezed the phone and nodded: ¡°Anyway, I¡¯ll answer first.¡±


    After that, Ye Kehuan pressed the answer and held the phone to her ear: ¡°Dad?¡±


    ¡°Kehuan.¡± Ye Bingquan¡¯s kind voice came from the other end of the phone immediately.


    ¡°Well, what¡¯s the matter, Dad?¡± Ye Kehuan reached out and put her hand on the faucet, feeling it up and down.


    ¡°The day after tomorrow, your cousin is going to get married. I heard that you are quite free lately, right? Since you are free, come and participate.¡± Ye Bingquan said.


    ¡°Ah, is that so?¡± Ye Kehuan let out a sigh of relief.


    ¡°Yeah, so, you will come to Beicheng tomorrow to pack up, and we will go too.¡± Besides that, Ye Bingquan didn¡¯t say anything else.


    ¡°Okay, then, is there anything else?¡± Ye Kehuan stared at the barbecue oil pan in the sink.


    One characteristic of Ye Bingquan was that he settled accounts slowly, and talked about things slowly. Moreover, many times he may not directly object to something by losing his temper, but the way he stopped people was very different.


    One thing Ye Kehuan remembered most was that she wanted to get a gift from Santa Claus at Christmas--a box of spicy sticks--and even made a wish. Ye Bingquan was not happy to give her that kind of junk food, but he did not directly say that she would not get it. On Christmas Day, when Ye Kehuan found that there were no spicy snacks on the head of her bed, he smiled and said to her, ¡°Santa must have broken his legs this year, wait for next year.¡± Ye Kehuan later discovered that Santa Claus would have his legs broken every year.


    ¡°When you come back we¡¯ll talk about it. I¡¯m going to sleep.¡± Ye Bingquan hung up without saying a word.


    With that, Ye Kehuan was a little panicked instead. Didn¡¯t her father¡¯s words mean that there were other things for them to talk about?


    Seeing that her call was over, Jiang Laien asked, ¡°What did he say?¡±


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh: ¡°My cousin is going to get married the day after tomorrow. My dad told me to go back and join them. But I think there should be other things when I get back. I think he might already know what happened between us.¡±


    ¡°Hey, hold on, don¡¯t worry, Uncle and Auntie are very understanding.¡± Jiang Laien said.


    To be honest, Jiang Laien thought that Ye Ling should agree. After all, Ye Bingquan had a very strict wife. Moreover, being able to be liked by someone like Ye Ling showed that Ye Bingquan should not be a conservative and pedantic person. After all, it was difficult for two people who were too different to get together, and even if they could get together, it was easy for something to happen in the meantime. She just hoped her hunch was not wrong.


    ¡°Well, I¡¯m not in a hurry. Even if they object, I will scold them well. Moreover, they can¡¯t stop the things I have decided. Besides, I have grown up now, and he can¡¯t use my financial resources to threaten me,¡± Ye Kehuan smiled, glanced at the dishes in the sink, and said hurriedly, ¡°You go and rest. I can just wash these. It¡¯s greasy and dirty.¡±


    Jiang Laien glared at her: ¡°I don¡¯t want to, I will be here with you. It is because it is dirty, so I have to share the burden with you.¡±


    ¡°Haha¡­¡± Ye Kehuan picked up the rag and began to clean the oil pan of the barbecue machine, ¡°You are so kind.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled sweetly: ¡°I must be.¡±


    ¡°Then you have to go back and stay for a few days?¡± After cleaning up the kitchen, walking out of the kitchen, turning off the lights, and going up the stairs, Jiang Laien turned sideways and looked at her again.


    Ye Kehuan thought for a moment: ¡°I¡¯ll go back tomorrow afternoon, attend the wedding the day after tomorrow, and come back the day after that. It won¡¯t be too long, because my parents are also very busy. Even if I want to accompany them, they don¡¯t have time to accompany me.¡±


    ¡°Oh¡­¡± Jiang Laien nodded, turned, and continued upstairs.


    ¡°Why, you don¡¯t want me to go?¡± Ye Kehuan followed her up and asked with a smile.


    ¡°Of course, you¡¯re so beautiful, I don¡¯t want.¡± Jiang Laien gave her a sideways glare, opened her door and walked in, and when she reached the window, she drew the curtains.


    ¡°But, you have it written all over your face, ¡®No, don¡¯t go¡¯.¡± Ye Kehuan closed the door, then walked over, stood behind her, stretched out her arms, and hugged her into her arms.


    Jiang Laien turned her head and snapped at her: ¡®Only if you can make up for it.¡±


    Ye Kehuan put her chin on her small shoulder: ¡°Okay.¡±


    Jiang Laien smiled and patted the hand around her waist: ¡°Well, since you are leaving tomorrow, can you pack up now? Have you chosen your clothes for the wedding?¡±


    ¡°Not yet.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head.


    Jiang Laien turned around and reached out and poked her forehead: ¡°Then I¡¯ll pick it for you, do you want to wear a dress or not?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to wear a dress.¡± Ye Kehuan shook her head.


    ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll help you choose a suit suitable for formal occasions.¡± Jiang Laien said, pushing the door open, and walked to Ye Kehuan¡¯s room.


    Ye Kehuan followed behind her and laughed. Suddenly she felt that she really seemed to have her own small family. Thinking of that, Ye Kehuan sighed again.


    In any case, she would definitely tell her parents clearly about her and Jiang Laien¡¯s affair.


    The next day.


    Because her cousin¡¯s wedding was held in Beicheng, the home that Ye Kehuan went back to this time was not the castle-like home from before, but their house in Beicheng.


    The Ye¡¯s real estate could be said to be scattered everywhere. Then, because of their work, it was actually difficult for their family to stay in a certain place for a long time. Those houses were usually vacant most of the time, and basically there were only people responsible for cleaning and watching them.


    The small villa on the north side was in the simple Nordic style that Ye Kehuan preferred. The decoration was mostly off-white. It looked simple, not ostentatious, and very clean.


    When she arrived, Ye Ling and Ye Bingquan had just arrived. Ye Ling still wore delicate makeup as always, looking too young. Ye Bingquan was a bit older compared to her, but it was okay, probably because he exercised under the leadership of Ye Ling, his body still looked quite vigorous.


    After seeing Ye Kehuan, Ye Bingquan tidied up the cuffs of his shirt without raising his eyes and said, ¡°So the bull is back?¡±


    That¡¯s right, the bull was Ye Bingquan¡¯s nickname for Ye Kehuan, from young to adult. Because Ye Kehuan was really a difficult child, and she didn¡¯t listen to carrot or stick.


    After Ye Kehuan heard that, she became unhappy, and took off her coat and put it on the coat rack next to him: ¡°Dad, that name is not good.¡±


    ¡°You also know it¡¯s not good? Who told you to be disobedient?¡± Ye Bingquan took a cup of black tea from the servant and blew on it, looking up at her.


    Ye Kehuan put her hands in her pockets and turned her head to the side: ¡°I¡¯m not always disobedient¡­¡±


    ¡°Oh, you still don¡¯t admit it? Shameless,¡± Ye Bingquan smiled after he finished speaking, ¡°I don¡¯t know who you took after to be such a fool. Why did you not inherit the good genes between your mother and I?¡±


    Ye Kehuan was unhappy, and took a step forward: ¡°Who said that, you see, you are so tall, and I am so tall. My mother is so beautiful, and I am so beautiful. Isn¡¯t that all excellent?¡±


    ¡°Yes, excellent.¡± At that moment, Ye Ling came down from the upper floor with a tablet, walked to Ye Bingquan, and sat down.


    ¡°How many days are you going to stay here?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°Until the day after tomorrow, and then travel.¡± Ye Ling¡¯s eyebrows were the same, with a big smile.


    ¡°Traveling again¡­¡± Ye Kehuan felt that her mother had never stopped the business of traveling.


    ¡°Yeah, envious? Why do you want to be a broken star when you can¡¯t be a top-tier, don¡¯t have a lot of money, and you still have to suffer?¡± Ye Bingquan raised his eyebrows and looked at her. ¡°Can you easily become a Jiang Laien?¡±


    Ye Kehuan sat on the sofa and collapsed: ¡°I¡¯m happy.¡±


    ¡°All right, you like it.¡± Ye Bingquan put down the black tea in his hand and picked up a magazine.


    After a while, Ye Bingquan shook his magazine twice: ¡°There has been some improvement in your career recently, right?¡±


    ¡°Well, it¡¯s okay.¡± Ye Kehuan nodded.


    ¡°So, emotionally?¡± Ye Bingquan opened a page of the magazine.


    When Ye Kehuan heard that, her heart tightened instantly. Had they finally reached the point? Did he already know? Or was he just asking casually?


    But, whether he knew or not, Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t want to keep it a secret. Thinking again and again, Ye Kehuan sat up straight: ¡°I¡­¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡¯ Ye Bingquan raised his eyes. Ye Ling also looked at Ye Kehuan.


    Ye Kehuan reached for a cup of tea, took a sip, and then put it down: ¡°I like someone.¡±


    ¡°Oh?¡± Ye Bingquan closed the magazine, ¡°Who?¡±


    Ye Ling took another sip of tea and moved slowly.


    ¡°She¡­¡± Ye Kehuan held her hands in front of her. It was the first time that she was so nervous in front of her parents.


    But, at that moment, Ye Bingquan¡¯s cell phone rang. Ye Bingquan had to put down the magazine and picked it up. After chatting for a few words, Ye Bingquan hung up and looked at Ye Ling: ¡°Chen Ming said that they have already set off.¡±


    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go too.¡± Ye Ling put down the teacup and stood up.


    Ye Bingquan nodded and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°Your mom and I have something to go do. We may not be back tonight. You can do what you want tonight. See you at the wedding tomorrow.¡±


    Ye Kehuan clenched her hands, still a little bit unstable: ¡°Oh, okay, then, you go.¡±


    Ye Bingquan nodded, and then walked towards the door holding Ye Ling¡¯s arm.


    Ye Kehuan raised her hand and stroked all her hair back, only to feel that she was being tortured. She almost said Jiang Laien¡¯s name a little bit. She didn¡¯t know what would happen when Jiang Laien¡¯s name was really spoken.


    After Ye Bingquan and Ye Ling got in the car together, Ye Bingquan was silent for a moment, and then said: ¡°It turned out to be true.¡±


    ¡°Of course it was true. You didn¡¯t believe it when I told you I suspected that they had a thing.¡± Ye Ling turned on her phone.


    ¡°Really¡­¡± Ye Bingquan put his hands on his knees, ¡°It shouldn¡¯t be¡­¡±


    ¡°Men who like men and women who like women are just drops in the ocean. What shouldn¡¯t be?¡± Ye Ling was also a person who had seen many people in the world, so that kind of thing was not unfamiliar.


    ¡°It still feels incredible.¡± Ye Bingquan shook his head.


    ¡°Why, you can¡¯t accept it?¡± Ye Ling¡¯s tone seemed to be talking about something very common, similar to what she looked like when discussing which store was better.


    Ye Bingquan stared ahead, tilted his head slightly, and said, ¡°How can Ye Kehuan fall in love? How can she fall in love with someone else? She always thought that love was the grave of life. Falling in love is the most nutritious thing in the world, far more than junk food. Doesn¡¯t she only like junk food?¡±


    Ye Ling: ¡°...¡±


    On the other hand, Ye Kehuan, who was at home alone, was emotionally unstable, so that she couldn¡¯t stay still. She switched the TV channel back and forth, then went to the gym to check various equipment, and then sat in the KTV and began to sing. But no matter what she did, her heart was always suspended in the air, but felt like it weighed a thousand tons.


    As long as Ye Bingquan didn¡¯t answer, it was like a thorn, piercing deeply in her heart.


    The next day.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t sleep well at night. After dressing and recalling the makeup artists¡¯ tricks, she ran to Ye Ling¡¯s room and stole some of her cosmetics. After putting on some light makeup, she also set off for her cousin¡¯s wedding.


    The wedding setting was an open-air lawn wedding, which was beautifully decorated with many guests and was extremely lively.


    From a distance, Ye Kehuan saw Ye Ling and Ye Bingquan talked with a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman at a long table, arm in arm, and the atmosphere looked polite and unfamiliar.


    ¡°Dad, Mom.¡± Ye Kehuan looked around, walked up quickly, and stood beside Ye Bingquan and Ye Ling.


    Then Ye Kehuan looked at the lady again: ¡°Hello.¡±


    ¡°Oh, Kehuan? You¡¯ve grown so big in the blink of an eye!¡± After seeing Ye Kehuan, the lady smiled brighter than before.


    Ye Kehuan didn¡¯t remember her a bit, thinking she was a relative she¡¯d almost never met, and just kept smiling.


    Who knew the lady¡¯s next sentence was: ¡°Have you married yet?¡±


    Here it came again, sure enough, on such occasions, people around always liked to ask such questions, as if a person¡¯s life had no meaning other than getting married and having children.


    ¡°She hasn¡¯t yet.¡± Seeing Ye Kehuan¡¯s expression turn slightly subtle, Ye Ling smiled and replied.


    ¡°Oh, you have to hurry up, she is almost 30, right? If you don¡¯t hurry up, there will be no good opportunities in the future. Career is important, but family is also very important. My daughter, I taught her, in terms of career, it is enough to make do with it, just find a reliable man, so that you will have a very stable future,¡± the lady said, and laughed again, ¡°Well, I can introduce you.¡±


    Ye Kehuan was really impatient when she heard that, so she looked down at her watch.


    Ye Bingquan glanced at Ye Kehuan, then looked at the lady, and smiled: ¡°I don¡¯t like hearing what you said. What stable and unstable, you mean, our Ye family is not enough to give her the best stable life? Our Ye family can¡¯t compare to a man? A man must be stable?¡±


    After hearing Ye Bingquan¡¯s words, Ye Kehuan instantly raised her head and wanted to give her dad thirty-six likes.2


    The lady was suddenly embarrassed and waved her hand to change her words: ¡°No, no, I didn¡¯t mean that, I just think that at this age, I would have to find someone to live with. If I stayed alone, I would be lonely in the future.¡±


    Ye Kehuan let out a sigh, and said in her heart: There is more to be done.


    But at that time, Ye Ling smiled: ¡°How do you know that she is not in love?¡±


    The lady was stunned again: ¡°Can you fall in love?¡±


    Ye Bingquan nodded: ¡°Well, she already has someone she likes, so I won¡¯t bother you to introduce someone.¡±


    Ye Kehuan turned her head to look at Ye Bingquan, and the hand holding her watch increased its strength. Did Ye Bingquan know that the person she liked was Jiang Laien? He didn¡¯t know yet, right?¡±


    The lady was dumbfounded, and she laughed again after a long while, and looked at Ye Kehuan: ¡°That¡¯s it? Oh, that¡¯s great, then, what kind of job does he have?¡±


    Ye Kehuan really felt a little suffocated. She only had one thing she could not understand before, and that was why Santa¡¯s legs broke every year, but now, she had a new incomprehensible thing: why did relatives always so love to gossip?


    Ye Bingquan curled his lips when he heard that, ¡°Profession? Of course it¡¯s love Kehuan.¡±


    The lady was further dumbfounded.


    Ye Bingquan smiled and pointed in a certain direction: ¡°Sorry, we have to go over there first.¡±


    ¡°Oh, yes, go.¡± The lady nodded repeatedly.


    Ye Kehuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and walked to the side of Ye Bingquan.


    The three people walked for a while, and they were relatively silent all the way.


    In the end, Ye Kehuan couldn¡¯t help it anymore: ¡°Dad.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Ye Bingquan turned his head and looked at her.


    ¡°Well, didn¡¯t you ask who I liked yesterday?¡± Ye Kehuan thought for a long time, and finally decided to confess everything and come out.


    ¡°Well, I asked you about it,¡± Ye Bingquan nodded, and then, his eyes were attracted by a strange-shaped balloon, and he turned to look at Ye Ling, ¡°Look, it looks like the kind of balloon we used when we got married?¡±


    Ye Ling nodded: ¡°Indeed, it looks a lot like it.¡±


    Seeing the two of them inexplicably talk about other things, Ye Kehuan stayed silent for a while before continuing to follow up: ¡°Dad, aren¡¯t you curious about who I like?¡¯


    ¡°I¡¯ve eaten more salt than you¡¯ve had rice, what could I be curious about?¡± Ye Bingquan stood under a tree, looked up at the decorations above, and looked at Ye Ling. ¡°Our company¡¯s holiday scenery can refer to this.¡±


    Ye Ling nodded and wandered around the tree: ¡°I think it¡¯ll be a success.¡±


    Ye Kehuan tilted her head and stood in front of Ye Bingquan: ¡°You know?!¡±


    Ye Bingquan nodded: ¡°Yes, Jiang Laien, right?¡±


    Ye Kehuan almost bit her tongue: ¡®Then you¡­¡±


    Ye Bingquan sighed and raised his eyebrows: ¡°I loved to hear it. You have lived for more than 20 years, and finally fell in love. I thought you were really going to be single until you were old.¡±


    ¡°So, Dad, what do you mean?¡± Ye Kehuan was overjoyed.


    ¡°Treat her well. She is a good girl.¡± Ye Bingquan smiled.


    Ye Kehuan covered her lips incredulously, and then asked: ¡°By the way, how did you know?¡±


    ¡°Her father, Ye Yijun, called and told me.¡± Ye Bingquan spread his hands.


    ¡°Then what did you tell him?¡± Ye Kehuan asked.


    ¡°I just said, I¡¯m too old to spend time on children¡¯s affairs. If you are too old and worry about it, you will die quickly.¡± After Ye Bingquan finished speaking, he took Ye Ling¡¯s hand and moved to the side to keep walking.


    The author has something to say: Two more~


    TL/N


    1 - Reference to the saying ¡°a scourge lasts a thousand years¡±, lamenting that the good die young while the evil stay alive.


    2 - This has probably come up before and I¡¯ve never explained it. Squares are very important in Chinese lore, and not the shape. I¡¯m not sure why. I did some quick searches but none of them were very useful. 3 is a very important number for many reasons, among which are its similarity in sound to the word life. Every multiple of three has something associated with it. Six-six-thirty-six, or six squared, as well as nine-nine-eighty-one show up frequently in Wuxia and similar novels.
