Yun Shudai had just returned from receiving an award and was preparing to celebrate with Mr. Bai in her online space.
As soon as I entered the space, I saw Lao He standing there in a daze.
"Old He, what's wrong?"
"Waaah, Lao Yun, I'm just feeling sorry for He Wanning in the book. Do you know who picked up that 1,200 yuan on the train?"
"Whose money did you lose on the train?"
"Liang Shurui, he's disgusting. I never thought he was this kind of person. Sure enough, the male lead isn't such a kind person either."
"Him...no way, how could it be him?"
"Right? You can't believe it, can you? If his sister hadn't let it slip and I hadn't overheard it, who would have guessed it was him? Unbelievable, it shattered my worldview."
Yun Shudai hugged He Wan and comforted her, "If that's the case, I can understand. After all, it was Chen Qing who commissioned someone to write the novel. She's a very wicked person with so many tricks up her sleeve. The editor she hired was probably very demanding, or she didn't pay him the full amount of the royalties, so he deliberately left this plot hole."
Upon hearing this, He Wan's eyes lit up and she immediately perked up: "Definitely, he must have offended the editor. I knew it, how could the male lead have any blemishes on his character?"
"So, the plots in the book aren't necessarily accurate. Now that we're both involved, they're even more outrageous. Look, I could win Best Actress now."
Looking at the trophy in her hand, He Wan's gloomy mood vanished instantly, and she gave Yun Shudai a hug: "Old Yun, well done! As an actor, as long as you have the talent, you won't be afraid of being unrecognized. Come on, come on, come on, I'll take you to find your 'gigolo' for a secret rendezvous, and let him praise you properly."
Yun Shudai stood up and said, "Tonight, let's celebrate together for finding money for me and for you."
"Absolutely, I extorted a lot of money from Chen Qing today."
"How many?"
"Ten thousand."
Upon hearing this number, Yun Shudai almost tripped over her own feet as she exited the space, exclaiming in shock, "How could she give you so much money?"
"Because Liang Shurui is afraid of going to jail."
"That's true, not returning found money is also a crime."
"Wrong. On our side, if someone finds out they've picked up money and don't return it, the most we'll do is make them pay it back and give them some compensation. That's all."
Of course, this isn't exactly something to be proud of. If I were to report it to the police station, the gossip and strange looks would utterly destroy him. How could they not be afraid?
"If you ask me, just tell her. We're not short of her ten thousand yuan."
"I just wanted to find out how much savings Chen Qing has now."
"Have you figured it out?"
"At most, no more than 100,000 yuan."
"What are you two talking about that makes you so happy?"
When Yun Shudai saw Mu Yin waiting for her in the living room, she quickly ran over, snuggled into his arms, and waved the trophy in front of him: "Honey, you're so happy about this."
Bai Muyin disregarded He Wan's presence, cupped her face and kissed her hard: "I watched the whole live stream, my wife is amazing."
"Not suitable for children, you two should stop now."
Bai Muyin smiled helplessly. There was always a third wheel around, and the worst part was that there were always plenty of third wheels around. What could he do but treat him like a god?
I made a phone call to a five-star hotel and ordered a table full of delicious food.
However, after finishing her meal, Yun Shudai moved to another location the next day to film a movie.
Bai Muyin also got busy.
