[Two Gongs...
26. I will get everything I want.
◎Including you◎*
"Huh?" Yan Sui didn't quite understand what the other person meant. "No, I didn't mean to restrict your movements, it's just..."
"OK."
Jian Liyun interrupted softly, her lips not actually curving upwards, but a gentle smile almost overflowing from her eyes: "If it's Sui Sui, she can understand everything about me, and she can also take care of me—"
"I'll do whatever Sui Sui says."
hiss--
Yan Sui gasped, scratching her face in bewilderment.
When did Jian Liyun become so subservient to her?
However, she had more important things to deal with at the moment, so Yan Sui stood up and said, "I suddenly remembered that I have a job to discuss with Director Kong. I'll be busy for a while, and you should rest well. We'll go to Miss Lu's house for lunch later."
Jian Liyun thoughtfully pointed in one direction, "The study is this way. If you need to use it, the computer inside doesn't have a password."
"Okay." Yan Sui walked into the study and closed the door.
She didn't turn on the computer, but took out her phone. She looked serious, but the phone screen was still black.
"system."
【Host. 】
Two voices rang in Yan Sui's mind at the same time. Yan Sui paused for a moment, then said, "System, you go first."
[Host, the male lead He Chenyu's behavior doesn't seem like he's helping Jian Liyun, it's more like...]
Yan Sui picked up the conversation, "To seize her luck points."
Yan Sui frowned. She was truly grateful to Lily from the original world for telling her so many stories about transmigration novels.
"If He Chenyu simply wanted to help Jian Liyun, then he wouldn't have needed to ask her to become an actress, because given Jian Liyun's situation at the time, it was practically impossible to get anything in return from her."
"Unless He Chenyu knew that Jian Liyun would become an excellent actress in the future."
Yan Sui remained calm. "And Jian Liyun has indeed become a good actress, and she has provided a lot of help to He Chenyu."
In the original novel, Jian Liyun's career was at its peak, but it quickly deteriorated after she started getting entangled with the male lead.
On the surface, Jian Liyun is troubled by love, but from the perspective of what Jian Liyun said today, it is quite intriguing.
[Host, your speculation makes a lot of sense. However, according to you, both the female and male leads are either awakened consciousness or reincarnated, but I've consulted my superiors, and they are indeed fine.]
Yan Sui lowered her eyes. "No."
"Perhaps it's not that these two people are without fault, but rather that your authority isn't high enough."
The system's electronic voice sounded dejected: "Host, I'm sorry, I'm really useless."
Yan Sui sighed, "This isn't your fault. Now is not the time to be discouraged. We still need to figure out one last thing."
[Host, I'm headless. What is it?]
"The true attitude of the female lead, Lu Shutian, towards the male lead, He Chenyu."
Yan Sui thought for a moment, "After the male lead seizes the female supporting character's luck points, will it be able to achieve his goal? Is his ultimate goal to be with the female lead, or something else? And what does the female lead think?"
"If the female lead is also hostile to the male lead, then we can consider forming an alliance with her. If the female lead hates both the male lead and the female supporting character, then we'll have to fight alone."
However, judging from Lu Shutian's attitude yesterday, which was to kill both the female supporting character and the male lead, she probably wanted to take revenge on everyone equally.
"[Host,]" the system's voice was weak, "[You just told the female supporting character that it wouldn't matter if she liked the male lead.]"
Yan Sui waved her hand, "Hey, I'm just trying to appease her. When she heard that He Chenyu might not be able to act, she got really angry when I tried to talk to her about it, right? So on the surface, I have to go along with her wishes. I'll show her the true colors of the male lead. I don't believe she'll still like him after she knows what he really is."
Moreover, Jian Liyun has repeatedly stated that she no longer likes He Chenyu.
【I see. 】
Yan Sui sighed, "Right now, I just hope that Lu Shutian won't say anything outrageous during lunch."
If Jian Liyun also awakens her consciousness or is reborn, then she shouldn't do this mission.
After finishing her discussion with one person at a time, Yan Sui finally dialed Director Kong's number.
Yan Sui pretended to talk to Director Kong about the promotional activities for Jian Liyun's upcoming movie, chatting for almost half an hour before hanging up the phone.
Yan Sui pushed open the study door and found Jian Liyun watching TV in the living room on silent.
Yan Sui walked over and asked, "Why isn't the sound on?"
"I don't want to interfere with your work," Jian Liyun said with a smile.
Yan Sui shook her head. "It's not that bad. The soundproofing of the study door is quite good. Speaking of which... I have to go out after lunch."
Jian Liyun sat up straight. "Is there something wrong at the company? Do you need my help?"
“No,” Yan Sui said somewhat awkwardly, but she had to say it, “It’s just… could I stay at your place for a while?”
Jian Liyun forced a smile, "Of course."
Yan Sui coughed lightly, "I'm sorry to bother you, but Miss Lu lives across the hall, and I'm really worried. I'm glad you agree. I'll go back to my place later and bring over some of my clothes and personal items. If you don't have any extra sheets, I'll go to the supermarket to buy some..."
“No need to buy sheets, you can just sleep in the same bed with me,” Jian Liyun interrupted.
"Huh? Sleeping together again?"
Yan Sui sensed something was wrong, "But now..."
It seems like they don't have any reason to insist on sleeping together anymore.
Yan Sui thought for a moment, then pointed to another tightly closed door, "Is this your guest room? Or should I..."
"No," Jian Liyun denied quickly.
Her tone held a hint of annoyance, "Is it difficult for you to sleep with me?"
Yan Sui looked away guiltily.
Not only did she not make things difficult, she even slept quite soundly.
Yan Sui tentatively asked, "Then shall we...sleep together tonight?"
Jian Liyun then condescended to nod slightly in agreement.
The two sat on the sofa, and Yan Sui looked at the silent TV, organizing her thoughts.
"Li Yun, you should talk less during dinner. I'll answer whatever she asks."
Jian Liyun remained silent.
Yan Sui couldn't hold back any longer. She grabbed Jian Liyun's arm with both hands, "Why aren't you saying anything? Did you hear me?"
Jian Liyun finally spoke, and she sighed, "You're so afraid of her, so if anyone's going to say anything, it should be me who does."
"She did scare me a bit yesterday, but I'm fine now." Yan Sui tugged at Jian Liyun's arm and shook it. "Can you please talk less later?"
"Your tone doesn't sound like you're asking for a favor." Jian Liyun calmly continued watching TV.
Before Yan Sui could continue, she glanced at her and said indifferently, "It's like she's being coquettish."
Yan Sui's ears quickly turned red. "I didn't..."
Jian Liyun picked up the remote and turned on the sound.
Laughter from the hosts and guests came through the television, and Jian Liyun's voice was also mixed in.
"But it's very useful to me."
...
Noon.
As soon as Yan Sui opened the front door, she saw Lu Shutian standing outside, ready to knock.
"Sisters, I was just about to look for you. I've finished cooking, come on over!"
Lu Shutian was wearing an apron with a puppy pattern, and she looked very excited.
Her pure and sweet face now had a slight blemish.
Yan Sui hesitated for a moment, "Miss Lu, there's a little flour on the tip of your nose."
Lu Shutian quickly reached out and wiped her nose, but luckily she didn't wipe the part that was covered in flour.
Yan Sui reached out and wiped away the flour.
Lu Shutian was a little embarrassed, "Thank you for your trouble, sister."
Standing behind Yan Sui, Jian Liyun lowered her eyes and remained silent.
What is this guy pretending for?
Fine, Sui Sui told her to talk less, so she'll talk less.
The three arrived at Lu Shutian's house and, seeing the even more lavish meal on the table than yesterday, Yan Sui's perception of Lu Shutian was once again refreshed.
If Lu Shutian had a tail, it would be smugly perked up right now.
"Sister, Senior Jian, please have a seat. These are just simple home-cooked dishes, plain food. I hope you won't find them offensive."
Yan Sui touched her nose.
She recalled her first meeting with Lu Shutian, telling her about the simple meals she and Jian Liyun had eaten—
Two dishes and a soup—that's true simple food.
Lu Shutian jogged to the kitchen and took off her apron. The three of them then finally sat down.
Lu Shutian smiled shyly, "My cooking skills are so-so, please excuse me."
Looking at the table full of delicious-looking dishes: ...
She smiled and said, "Miss Lu, you're too kind. Your cooking skills are even better than the food in restaurants."
Lu Shutian put a piece of pork rib on Yan Sui's plate, saying, "Why are you still being so formal with me, sister?"
Even though the other person was saying it with a smile, Yan Sui instantly got goosebumps.
So Yan Sui almost blurted out, "Tian Tian, thank you for putting food on my plate."
Lu Shutian's smile then became more genuine, "No need to be so polite with me."
The two interacted very naturally, but one of them looked increasingly worse.
Jian Liyun ate her food in silence, her eyes fixed on the rice.
After a lively discussion about how to make the dishes taste better, Lu Shutian raised her glass and said, "Sister, Senior Jian, let's have a toast. I have some good news to tell you!"
Yan Sui's brow twitched, a strange unease creeping over her.
The three glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound, but not a harsh one.
Yan Sui took a sip of slightly sour freshly squeezed juice. "What is it? Lu Xiao... Tian Tian."
Yan Sui didn't understand either. It was just a name, so why did it go so smoothly for her to call Jian Liyun "Liyun," but she always stumbled when calling this woman Tiantian?
Fortunately, Lu Shutian didn't hold it against her. She put down her glass and said with a smile, "I've already taken care of Jin Lan and her ex-girlfriend's matter. They will be participating in the show."
Jian Liyun paused, then remained silent.
Yan Sui, on the contrary, was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"
Lu Shutian proudly raised her chin. "Of course."
Buzzing.
Jian Liyun's phone started vibrating. She took it out and said, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."
Since the apartments were all the same type, even though it was Lu Shutian's home, Jian Liyun went to the balcony without any trouble. She closed the French windows, and the glass blocked out her voice.
In any case, if Jin Lan agrees to collaborate with Jian Liyun because she can participate in the variety show, it will be a great help to Jian Liyun's career.
So Yan Sui raised her glass and said, "Thank you so much."
Lu Shutian blinked, then grabbed Yan Sui's wrist, forcing her to put down the glass: "I'm not doing this so that my sister will thank me."
Yan Sui took a deep breath, trying her best not to let her body resist the other person's touch.
"What does Tian Tian want? As long as it's within my ability, I will definitely agree."
Lu Shutian caressed Yan Sui's wrist, her nimble, cold fingers like a venomous snake ready to coil around its prey.
She let go of his hand. "I don't want anything."
I just want you to see Jian Liyun's true colors.
I want you to choose me willingly.
Yan Sui said awkwardly, "Anyway, I'll owe you this favor for now. If you ever need my help in the future, I'll definitely do it."
Lu Shutian held up her little finger, "Let's pinky swear."
Yan Sui earnestly completed something with Lu Shutian that seemed like something only a child would do:
"A pinky promise is a promise that will last a hundred years; only a dog would lie to that."
There was no wind indoors, but after the two of them said those words at the same time, Yan Sui's hair was blown by the wind.
Along with it comes a faint, almost undetectable lychee aroma.
Yan Sui withdrew her hand and pressed her left hand firmly against her chest.
The lychee scent had actually been present when Yan Sui last met Lu Shutian, but at that time she was in a tense standoff with her and didn't pay any attention to the scent.
This time, Yan Sui could smell it for real.
But the flavor was so faint and the time it lasted was so short, almost instantaneous, that Yan Sui even wondered if it was just her imagination.
The fragrance awakened deep memories within her, and she couldn't help but recall her eighteenth birthday.
Lu Shutian seemed much more anxious than Yan Sui. "Sister, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell again? Should I call an ambulance?"
Yan Sui quickly stopped him, "I'm fine. Did you smell anything just now?"
Lu Shutian observed the other person's expression and hesitated, which was unusual for her. "...No. If I had to say, are you referring to the aroma of the food?"
It seems that Lu Shutian couldn't smell the lychee fragrance.
Yan Sui felt a little flustered, so she looked away and changed the subject, "Then I must have smelled it wrong. Speaking of which, how did you get Jin Lan's ex-girlfriend to agree to participate in the show?"
Lu Shutian chuckled, "This matter is very simple. All we need to do is find out why her ex-girlfriend broke up with Jin Lan and tell that person how to resolve the issue."
"So what is the reason?"
On the surface, Yan Sui followed Lu Shutian's lead, but in reality, she was calling out to the system in her mind.
"System, I remember you said you smelled a foul odor on the male lead, He Chenyu. Just now I smelled a lychee scent, did you smell it? Is that the scent coming from her?"
[Host, I...no...]
The system's speech was interrupted halfway through by gibberish; the electronic voice became harsh and intermittent, and Yan Sui couldn't understand what it was saying at all.
Lu Shutian stood up and came behind Yan Sui.
She gripped the other person's shoulder with just the right amount of pressure, then bent down and whispered in their ear.
"Sister, the reason doesn't matter. What matters is that I can solve your problem."
Yan Sui tried to shrink back, but Lu Shutian's hands held her firmly, preventing her from moving.
Oh no, the female lead is going crazy again.
Yan Sui sensed something was wrong and was thinking about how to get Jian Liyun away when she saw Jian Liyun finish her phone call on the balcony and turn around to face the two of them.
Lu Shutian and Yan Sui were in a rather intimate position. Noticing Jian Liyun's gaze, she gave her a provocative smile, then put her arm around Yan Sui's waist and helped her stand up. She then took off the gray coat that Yan Sui was wearing.
Jian Liyun opened the French windows, and her voice finally came in: "Sui Sui".
Yan Sui remained relatively calm. "Have you finished the call?"
Lu Shutian interrupted their conversation, "Sister, your coat is too big. I have a cashmere trench coat that would really suit you. Come with me to the room to change. Senior Jian, please eat first."
The heroine's heart is as unfathomable as the bottom of the sea.
Yan Sui glanced at Jian Liyun, indicating that she shouldn't worry, and then went into the dressing room with Lu Shutian.
The two entered the dressing room, and the atmosphere became somewhat too silent.
Yan Sui could only make small talk, "Thank you so much for Jin Lan's matter."
“Sister,” Lu Shutian opened the closet and took out a beige coat, “Let’s all stop acting now, I’m quite tired too.”
Yan Sui's heart skipped a beat.
Lu Shutian took the coat and carefully draped it over Yan Sui's shoulders, her tone revealing an undisguised malice.
"I can solve any problem in this world."
Yan Sui pursed her lips, "You..."
As if touching a precious treasure, Lu Shutian carefully stroked Yan Sui's soft cheek with the back of her fingers.
She smiled sweetly, "Sister, am I wrong? I'm the protagonist in this world, and protagonists are omnipotent, of course."
Yan Sui was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Although she knew that Lu Shutian probably already knew the truth about this world, Yan Sui was still shocked to hear her say it so directly.
She finally found her voice: "Aren't you afraid of being punished for saying something like this?"
Lu Shutian raised an eyebrow. "Is my sister feeling sorry for me? I'm so touched."
...That's not necessarily true.
Yan Sui thought to herself that she was complaining, but she didn't say anything on the surface.
Seeing that the other party did not answer, Lu Shutian suddenly began to unbutton the buttons on her chest.
Yan Sui was so frightened that she took a big step back, only to bump into the cold wall behind her.
Lu Shutian pressed on, "Sister, don't be afraid of me, I will never hurt you."
She finally unbuttoned a few buttons on her chest, and Yan Sui's pupils constricted.
The location of Lu Shutian's heart...
There is an ugly and hideous scar.
"The protagonist will also be punished, sister."
Yan Sui was filled with mixed feelings, and she didn't even know why she looked away: "...Does it hurt?"
Lu Shutian slowly buttoned up her clothes. "Sister, it hurts, but I'm not afraid of pain."
What I fear more is having no choice.
"You..." Yan Sui really didn't know what to say. She tried to call out to the system in her mind, but she didn't get a response.
"Sister, don't pity me for this," Lu Shutian smiled languidly, tucking a strand of Yan Sui's black hair behind her ear. "I'm the protagonist of this world. What I want, I will definitely get—"
"Including you."
