2. Please lie down.

◎If anyone's going to lie down, it's you, right? ◎

It wasn't until the two entered the bedroom that Yan Sui finally realized her mistake. She quickly turned her back and said, "Change into your pajamas first."

Jian Liyun really didn't understand what was going on in this new agent's head.

He suddenly barged into her house late at night, not to talk about work, but to give her a massage.

Jian Liyun took off her long dress, making a rustling sound.

Yan Sui, on the other hand, stared calmly at the wooden door of the bedroom.

[Host, are you not planning to let the female supporting character participate in that lifestyle variety show?]

Yan Sui responded to the voice in her head, "Yes."

If the female supporting character's contact with the protagonist is reduced, her fate should be changed.

"I've changed my clothes."

Jian Liyun's voice interrupted Yi Renyitong's conversation.

Yan Sui turned around and saw that Jian Liyun, who had just been wearing a fitted black dress, had changed into a soft beige nightgown.

The pajamas were very loose, and Jian Liyun hadn't buttoned the top button, so her alluring collarbone was faintly visible as she moved.

Yan Sui made no attempt to hide her probing gaze. Suddenly remembering something, she quickly walked towards Jian Liyun.

Jian Liyun was tall, and when she faced Yan Sui, who was half a head shorter than her, she inexplicably took a step back.

Yan Sui walked up to her in a few steps, "Lie down."

Jian Liyun: ?

Yan Sui thought she hadn't explained herself clearly, "Li Yun, please lie down."

Jian Liyun's eyes were unpredictable; it turned out her new agent had a taste for this.

"If anyone should be lying down, it should be you."

After a long pause, Jian Liyun finally uttered those words softly.

Yan Sui was puzzled, but she really had no patience left.

Pressing down on Jian Liyun's shoulders to force her to sit on the soft bed, she pursed her lips and said, "You don't have to lie down now."

Anyway, she can watch it too.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Sui grabbed Jian Liyun's right hand with her left hand.

Without the obstruction of clothing, Jian Liyun could clearly feel the other person's warmth and tenderness.

Yan Sui had no idea about the other person's complicated thoughts. She grabbed Jian Liyun's sleeve with her right hand and rolled it up—

Jian Liyun's fair and delicate arms were then revealed.

Yan Sui stroked the other person's wrist, and the cold yet delicate touch told her that there were no old injuries on the other person's wrist.

Relieved, Yan Sui released her hand and then checked her other arm in the same way.

With both arms fine, Yan Sui squatted down again and lifted up the other person's trouser leg.

The pajama pants were very loose, and Yan Sui easily rolled them up to her knees without much effort.

Recalling the plot of the original work, Yan Sui carefully chose the latter when considering whether to take off the other person's pants or continue to pull up his pajama bottoms.

A cold hand gripped her wrist.

"Yan Sui," Jian Liyun said, her expression unreadable, "what exactly do you want?"

Before the other person could answer, she continued, "Do you suspect that I've been unfaithful before?"

Messing around? What is all this nonsense?

Yan Sui frowned, "What nonsense? I..."

Jian Liyun remained calm, "I am very clean."

She took the initiative to unbutton her blouse, and her spring colors were about to be fully revealed.

Yan Sui hesitated, but ultimately did not stop the woman's actions.

Yan Sui stopped her as she was unbuttoning the third button.

That's enough.

She stood up, bent down slightly, and suddenly leaned closer to the other person.

Yan Sui's warm breath brushed against Jian Liyun's skin, but the person involved was completely unaware.

Jian Liyun lowered her eyes, but her other hand unconsciously clenched the bed sheet.

Yan Sui carefully examined the wounds for a long time and was completely relieved after confirming that there were no injuries.

"Okay, lie down now, I'll massage your head. The medication should be taking effect by now."

Jian Liyun's consciousness was already becoming somewhat sluggish. She didn't try to be strong anymore, and after giving a soft "hmm," she closed her eyes.

With just the right amount of pressure, he massaged her temples with both hands. Jian Liyun's consciousness became increasingly blurred, and she eventually fell into a deep sleep.

【Host. 】

Despite the emotionless electronic voice, Yan Sui inexplicably detected a hint of a sob in it.

She looked at the sleeping Jian Liyun, then tiptoed into the living room, closing the bedroom door behind her.

"how?"

The system is really about to cry.

What were you doing just now? Thank goodness you stopped in the end. The female supporting character will hate you for doing that. This is a romance novel; the female supporting character doesn't like women.

Yan Sui frowned. "Of course I know this is a romance novel. I was just checking her body."

【ah? 】

Yan Sui patiently explained, "Although the book doesn't explicitly mention when Jian Liyun started self-harming, it must have been quite some time ago. Now that she's started taking sleeping pills, there's a strong possibility that she's already begun self-harming. The sooner we discover it, the sooner we can address it."

The system was speechless.

Yan Sui continued, "It would be disrespectful to check her while she's asleep. So it's better to check her now; it will put her at ease, and it will put my mind at ease too."

The system was completely at a loss for words.

Yan Sui flexed her wrists. "When she wakes up tomorrow, I'll take her on a trip to relax. She was too tired in the original story."

bite.

The phone beeped, and Yan Sui opened it, her face darkening.

"System, are you sure I'm the only outsider in this world?"

【Of course, host.】

Yan Sui waved her phone. "But the show's producer told me that the recording of this variety show has been postponed."

"I haven't even agreed or refused yet, why has this variety show, which was originally scheduled to be recorded soon, been suddenly postponed?"

It's terrifying to think about.

Even a rough thought is terrifying.

The system crashed and scratched its head, even though it had no head.

[Logically, you should be the only outsider in this world. Don't panic, host, let me check first.]

The system fell silent after it finished speaking, but Yan Sui's expression remained unchanged.

She pondered for a moment, then unconsciously raised her right hand, her five fingers naturally loosening, with her middle finger overlapping her index finger.

Realizing what she was doing, Yan Sui exhaled, and her original hand gesture of holding the chess pieces changed to clenching her fist.

"I really am..." she laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Never mind." Yan Sui quickly composed herself. "Anyway, we'll deal with whatever comes our way."

The next morning.

Jian Liyun opened the bedroom door with a tired look on her face, and the woman curled up on the sofa in her peripheral vision quickly caught her eye.

Her heart tightened, and when she got closer, she realized it was Yan Sui, who was curled up in a ball under a blanket.

After taking off her old-fashioned and boring glasses, and letting her low ponytail fall loose, Yan Sui's face became more gentle.

Her forehead was full, her nose was straight, and the shape of her pink lips was just right.

Looking at the other person's face, Jian Liyun, an actress who had seen countless faces, came to a conclusion.

True beauty lies in the bone structure, not just the skin, and the woman sleeping before me possesses the finest bone structure.

It was seven o'clock in the morning, and Jian Liyun was still hesitating whether to wake Yan Sui, but Yan Sui opened her eyes on her own.

Yan Sui has always been a light sleeper, and she woke up immediately after sensing someone approaching her.

Yan Sui yawned and slowly sat up. "Where are my glasses...?"

"here."

Jian Liyun handed her the gold-rimmed glasses that were on the coffee table, paused, and then said, "These glasses don't have a prescription, do they?"

Yan Sui answered honestly, "No."

Jian Liyun crossed her arms. "Then why are you wearing it?"

Yan Sui put on her glasses and said frankly, "It makes me look more professional."

Jian Liyun's lips parted slightly, but she couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Yan Sui picked up her phone, still half asleep. "What do you usually eat for breakfast? I'll order takeout."

Jian Liyun said calmly, "A cup of black coffee."

That's it?

Yan Sui was shocked because in her previous world, she had never paid attention to the entertainment industry and naturally had no idea how these seemingly glamorous celebrities would control their diets in an almost perverse way to maintain their figures.

"No, even if you want to go for a low-calorie diet, you still need to eat some carbohydrates, otherwise your brain won't work."

Yan Sui placed the order while muttering to herself, then waved to Jian Liyun, signaling her to sit down next to her.

Jian Liyun hesitated for a few seconds, but still walked over and sat down next to her.

Yan Sui had already prepared her reason, "I'm sorry, I was a little tired last night, so I didn't tell you in time. I lifted your clothes yesterday to check if you had any wounds. You... don't sleep well, and I'm worried that if this continues, you might develop some bad habits."

Yan Sui put it very tactfully, but Jian Liyun understood immediately.

A strange emotion welled up inside her, but Jian Liyun's expression remained unchanged. "I'm fine. After all, my body is also a commodity. If it's damaged, I won't be able to sell it for a good price."

Yan Sui frowned, then turned to look at Jian Liyun seriously. "Don't talk about yourself like that. It's true that you've brought profits to the company, but you are yourself first and foremost."

"I'm your agent," Yan Sui silently added in her mind, "and also your comrade-in-arms."

"So, if you feel unwell or have any difficulties, please tell me. We'll face it together, and I'll do my best to help you solve it, okay?"

Yan Sui's tone was so sincere that Jian Liyun could tell that she was 100% genuine and there was no element of pretense or acting.

Jian Liyun avoided eye contact, just as the doorbell rang.

Yan Sui immediately stood up. She knew it was most likely a food delivery driver, but she was just in case.

Smiling, Yan Sui accepted the takeout bag and called to Jian Liyun, "Come and have breakfast."

At the dining table.

As the two chewed on the bland toast, Jian Liyun suddenly spoke up, "Why did you sleep on the sofa last night?"

Yan Sui took a sip of milk. "The other room doors were all closed. I was worried there might be something private inside, so I didn't open them. My home is a bit far from here, and I had things to do with you today, so I slept on your sofa for the night."

Seeing that Jian Liyun didn't speak, Yan Sui quickly said, "If you think it's dirty, I'll wash the sofa cover and blanket right away."

“No need,” Jian Liyun said calmly, “you…”

"What's wrong with me? Li Yun, if there's anything bothering you, you must tell me."

She was exhausted when she transmigrated last night and didn't pay attention to many things. Now that she has slept well, her mind is much clearer. She is being very careful with Jian Liyun, afraid that the other party might break at any moment.

Jian Liyun pursed her lips. "I don't feel uncomfortable."

Yan Sui is a very strange woman.

He did something so inconsiderate to her yesterday, yet now he's maintaining a very polite social distance from her.

She considered herself good at understanding people's hearts, but she couldn't understand Yan Sui's thoughts.

Yan Sui had no idea what was going on in the other person's mind. She hummed in agreement, "That's good. I'll arrange a full physical examination for you in a few days. After breakfast, pack your luggage, and I'll take you out."

"Is it that variety show?" Jian Liyun asked, lowering her eyes.

Yan Sui frowned slightly. "You've seen that document?"

Jian Liyun nodded, "Yes, I should be qualified to watch, right?"

Yan Sui pursed her lips, "Yes, there is... but I don't plan to let you participate in that variety show."

Jian Liyun paused, "Why? The production team behind this variety show has already created several phenomenal hit shows. If I go, it will greatly help boost my popularity."

Why would I do that? Naturally, I don't want you to disturb the two main characters' sweet moments on the show.

In the original storyline, Jian Liyun kept showing affection for the male lead on the show, but the male lead just didn't appreciate it. Instead, he turned around and partnered with the female lead, and the chemistry between the two quickly soared.

Yan Sui remained unfazed. "You're an actress, you should focus on making more films. Let's not talk about this anymore, go pack your bags."

Jian Liyun didn't ask any more questions. After finishing breakfast, she turned around and went back to her room to pack her luggage.

Yan Sui casually tied her hair up and started scrolling through her phone again.

[Host! I'm back!]

Yan Sui squinted at the voice and thought helplessly, "System, could you please lower your voice? Even if we're communicating with our minds, your voice is so loud it's about to explode."

The system apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, host, I was just too emotional."

Do systems also experience emotional fluctuations?

Yan Sui paused for a moment, then said, "Tell me what happened."

[Host, I've explained the situation of this small world to my superiors. They quickly dispatched another system to investigate, but the results show that you are indeed the only outsider in this world.]

So why did the plot deviate from its intended course?

The system's voice was also filled with confusion: "Because this world hasn't shown any signs of collapse yet, my boss said... let's leave it at that for now, and contact us again if something really happens."

What a beautiful mental state.

Yan Sui put down her phone, looked out at the blue sky, and smiled gently.

"Yes, how did the plot go off track?"

That's really "hard to guess".

The system hesitated, then said, "Host, please stop laughing, it's scary."
