The last game guest was Yu Lianyun.
As the “only” woman in the current show, she herself was a beautiful scenery and highlight.
She took her mission card from the game box.
“Jealousy!” After taking over, Jia Yun read out the content of Yu Lianyun’s task card to the camera, “As a woman, she is jealous and suspicious and has demands on her lover! Will Yu Meiren become hysterical when faced with this situation? Or will she remain calm and self-controlled as always? I’m very curious!”
Ai Xuan shook his head and sighed, “Oh! Is our game too difficult, or are all the guests unlucky? It seems that the task cards we draw are not simple.”
“For this, you should ask our great teacher Du Xiaoguang, Director Du!” Jia Yun secretly pointed in the direction of Du Xiaoguang as if no one else could see, “Because these task cards were all thought up by him, including the lines and questions in them!”
“You dare, but I don’t.” Ai Xuan skipped the topic without hesitation and pressed the shortcut dial key 1 on Yu Lianyun’s phone.
“Beep…”
“F**k!” Ai Xuan exclaimed and swore. He quickly handed the phone to Yu Lianyun, “Xiao Yun Yun, I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn’t expect it to work! Whose number is corresponding to shortcut key No. 1?”
The note name that appeared on the big screen was “Fourth Master”.
Who was this Fourth Master?
Why was it on Yu Lianyun’s quick dial key No. 1?
Everyone knew the specialness of key No. 1, and no one would just randomly set an unimportant number on it.
Did Yu Lianyun, who had never had any scandals, have any hidden secrets?
As the number was dialed, questions arose in everyone’s mind, followed by a strong sense of curiosity.
Yu Lianjun herself was obviously stunned for a moment.
She stood there holding the phone, her fingertips almost touching the hang-up button on the touch screen, but she hesitated to do so.
Time seemed to pass extremely slowly and yet extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, the phone rang twice.
“Lianyun?”
As soon as this voice appeared, everyone present was amazed.
There was a kind of sound that was as pleasant as the gentle touch of jade, which made people feel as if they are bathed in spring breeze, and their mood became peaceful and happy.
There was a kind of person who has this kind of voice. Even without seeing his appearance, just listening to this voice, the image of a gentle and elegant man with a breeze-like smile would naturally emerge in your mind.
“What’s the matter?” At this moment, the man’s voice coming from the speaker gave people such an amazing feeling.
“…Fourth Master.” Yu Lianjun came back to her senses.
“Hmm?” There always seemed to be a hint of smile in the man’s tone, but when you listened carefully it seemed like there wasn’t any.
Yu Lianyun was silent for another second, as if she had lost her usual calmness. Like an ordinary young girl, she was a little hesitant in facing her task.
Everyone was waiting, and the man on the other end of the phone seemed to be waiting as well. After about four or five seconds, the man spoke again, “If everything is fine…”
“Why can’t you care about me a little more.” Yu Lianyun suddenly interrupted him with a complicated expression, a little scared, shy and something else, mixed into an expression that was difficult to understand, but she bravely went to complete her task, “There are always so many outstanding women around you, and I’m just one of them. I’m nothing special to you!”
“…”
“I don’t care! You don’t know what it means to be considerate! I just want you to love me, and don’t look at any of them again! Even seeing you smile at someone can make me jealous and crazy!”
Yu Lianyun looked noble and fairy-like. She had always been regarded by men as a goddess who could be admired from afar but not desecrated. Suddenly saying such words, there was unexpectedly no disharmony.
Maybe it was because her expression was so vivid.
A low laugh came from the speakers.
The man’s laughter was as soft as water, and the lingering sound was lingering.
“Why are you suddenly throwing a tantrum?”
As soon as these words came out, it made people feel that everything Yu Lianyun said before was just a joke.
In fact, it was just a joke.
Yu Lianyun’s face turned red, but it didn’t seem like she was pretending, her face was really red. She lowered her head and asked the same questions as those written on the task card, “Promise me that you won’t get involved with other women again?”
“No.” His tone was like he was coaxing a child.
“You are not allowed to smile at anyone else. You can only smile at me, okay?”
“No way.”
Even though it was a rejection, people felt that it was not his fault, but rather that Yu Lianyun was being unreasonable.
Yu Lianyun pursed her lips and said, “Can you come and see me? I’m recording a show!”
When the last question came out, everyone would know that Yu Lianyun’s abnormal words before were just acting during the recording of the show, and everyone would feel a little unhappy.
The man’s voice was still gentle, “What program?”
Yu Lianyun: “Infinite Collapse.”
“Hmm.” The man didn’t know what he was thinking of and laughed again, “It’s indeed broken.”
He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but it seemed that the man’s laughter this time was more real and beautiful, which made people’s heart beat faster.
“I’m back in Country Z. Since you’re busy, why don’t we meet on the show?”
These gentle words made the blush on Yu Lianyun’s face fade away, and she did not respond to the man.
Because she understood that the man was not talking to her.
“You go ahead and be busy. See you next time.”
Yu Lianyun said softly, “Okay, see you next time.” Then she hung up the phone.
Once the call was over, there was no outburst, but there were some murmurs in the audience.
Ai Xuan cleared his throat and asked Yu Lianyun, “Xiao Yunyun, could you please tell us who this Fourth Master is?”
Yu Lianyun put away her phone, smiled mysteriously, and did not answer his question.
This smile could express so many things that it was hard to guess.
Jia Yun came out and changed the topic elsewhere with one sentence, “Ahaha, Fourth Master! Fourth Master! The Fourth Master in history was a big ice cube, but the Fourth Master here is a very warm man. His voice drives me crazy! Oh, my favorite is still Your Majesty, but I also appreciate the warm man in Yu Meiren’s task, the domineering man in Your Majesty’s task, and a little sheep like Le Xian!”
“You are already a fangirl, there is no need to say it again.” Ai Xuan couldn’t help but despise her again.
In the end, based on the completion of Yu Lianyun’s lines and questions, she and Le Xian both scored a full five points!
The game session ended and it was time for lunch break.
Backstage.
Du Xiaoguang invited Si Huang and others to have dinner together with a smile on his face.
When the staff put the takeaway food on the table, Ai Xuan laughed, “Teacher Du is so generous today that he didn’t even let us have lunch boxes!”
“If you perform as well as you did today, I will treat you to big meals every day.” Du Xiaoguang said generously, and it could be seen that he was very satisfied with the results of today’s show.
Ai Xuan and Jia Yun also laughed. They didn’t look as crazy off the stage as they did on the stage. Jia Yun said, “Senior Taishu and the others are really awesome. They don’t look like it’s their first time participating in a reality show.”
Wu Taishu had already started eating. He looked up when he heard that, “I still like you calling me Uncle Wu. It’s so special.”
“Hahaha!” Du Xiaoguang laughed happily.
Si Huang also laughed twice, then had her lunch quietly.
After finishing the meal, everyone recorded some details of the program in the afternoon and ended today’s work in Infinite Collapse.
Before leaving, Mi Lu’s agent came to see Du Xiaoguang again, hoping that he could be more forgiving.
The wonderful recording of the program put Du Xiaoguang in a good mood, and he was no longer so embarrassing towards the woman, but he still said: “I must see Mi Lu tomorrow, otherwise don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the woman’s face, and she responded: “No problem! Teacher Du, don’t worry.”
“…”
Du Xiaoguang did not comment on this.
Along the way, he reminded Si Huang and the others, “We’re going to shoot outside tomorrow, so you all should be prepared.” Seeing them nod, he specifically asked Si Huang, “Have you taken all the vacations?”
“Yeah.”
“You won’t fall behind in your studies, will you?”
Si Huang didn’t expect that he would still care about this, and said with a dumb smile, “No, I will bring my textbooks.”
“Okay, okay.” Du Xiaoguang narrowed his eyes and smiled, “I would remind you to bring them even if you didn’t say it. Last time you were studying in the crew of “The Emperor’s Path”, you became a top student in Jinghua University, which made a big gimmick for “The Emperor’s Path”. Now you have to become the top student in the grade in Infinite Collapse, that’s fair!”
Si Huang: “…”
The others also seemed a little speechless.
….
There was no special work announcement in the afternoon.
Si Huang sat in the nanny car and asked Yu Xi to take him to the sales company.
“You want to buy a house?” Yu Xi asked in surprise.
“Yeah.” Si Huang said, “I suddenly found that it’s a bit troublesome not having my own private residence.”
Yu Xi thought for a while, “It’s not easy to find a good property on a temporary basis, but…” He paused and reminded Si Huang, “Didn’t you think of Li Jiming? He is the eldest son of Wanheng Group. He must have the best property resources. And your roommate Su Banyue’s family is also in real estate.”
Si Huang was stunned for a moment, then laughed, “I almost forgot.”
Her mind had been on other things recently, and she didn’t even think about this, but Yu Xi reminded her instead.
“Puchi.” Yu Ling on the side laughed softly.
Si Huang took out her cell phone and called Li Jiming.
After the two talked for a few minutes, the house issue was settled: a commercial house in a community in a central area of Beijing, and a two-story villa in the suburbs.
The security in the former community was very good. According to Li Jiming, many celebrities owned properties there, and those living there were rarely harassed by paparazzi. The latter villa was located in a very quiet and remote area, built against the mountain.
Li Jiming also gave an internal price for the two properties. Si Huang tried to refuse but was blocked by Li Jiming’s words.
“We are all brothers, there’s nothing to say. Besides, you helped me teach that bast**d Guo Song a lesson, and I haven’t thanked you yet. Now it’s settled. If you are short of money, I can arrange installment payment for you. How about a 10% down payment? Haha.”
Si Huang didn’t mind his teasing and transferred the money directly to the account he sent.
“Thank you for your concern for my business. Remember to find time to go through the formalities and pick up the property certificate.” Before hanging up the phone, Li Jiming made a special invitation: “Luona is still thinking about you, and my mother likes you very much. We can have dinner together or something then. Okay, that’s it. I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”
Si Huang said goodbye and hung up the phone.
She looked at the address book on her mobile phone. After finishing work, her mind became active. She thought of Qin Fan and Xia Qitong’s voice coming from Yu Lianyun’s phone.
Xia Qitong’s voice was as recognizable as Qin Fan’s, and no one who had heard it would forget it.
Yu Lianyun made her debut at the age of 18, became an instant hit at the age of 21, and won the title of Best Actress. Others speculated that she had a powerful backer behind her.
Now it seemed that her backer should be Xia Qitong, or the Wildfire Group?
Yu Lianyun was an artist of Century Tianxiong Entertainment Alliance Group, so the boss behind Century Tianxiong Entertainment Alliance Group was most likely Xia Qitong.
Thinking about it this way, Si Huang found it a bit strange. Since there was already a well-established entertainment giant, Century Tianxiong Entertainment Alliance Group, what did Xia Qitong want to do with her Fenghuang Entertainment in the beginning? They even proposed cooperation, which was a way of lowering their status.
The figure of Xia Qitong appeared in her mind, with his handsome face and warm smile.
Si Huang relaxed and smiled.
Maybe she was overthinking it. For a person like this to do that, perhaps he was just respecting herself.
Around eight or nine o’clock in the evening.
Before leaving after finishing a day’s work, Yu Xi reminded Si Huang: “Go to bed early today, it might be very hard starting tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Si Huang watched him leave and put down the textbook in her hand.
An hour later.
A very ordinary and inconspicuous taxi stopped on a street a hundred meters away from a villa complex.
The passenger door opened, and Si Huang, wearing a sweatshirt and trousers and a mask, walked out. She handed the money to the driver, then turned and walked towards the residential area.
She did not go through the main gate, easily avoided the surveillance, and climbed over the wall to enter the community.
Ten minutes later, she stood in front of the door of the villa she rented two days ago, opened the door with the key and walked in.
….
“Click——”
the lights in the room turned on.
Si Huang squatted down and opened the locker door.
The naked woman inside seemed to have fainted, her body an unnatural red and purple.
“Hmm…” The weak sound was like the buzz of a mosquito.
Mi Lu struggled to open her eyes a crack, but her eyes, which had been swollen from crying for a long time, seemed to no longer be able to shed tears. She was dazed and couldn’t see clearly.
Her cracked lips moved, but no sound came out.
