The moment Liu Wanqing received that phone call, she was in a luxurious suite at a five-star hotel. Outside the window, the city lights twinkled, creating a dreamy and warm atmosphere with the soft lighting inside.
Her voice, still carrying a hint of languid magnetism, softly said "hello," but the urgent instructions from the other end of the phone instantly extinguished all her leisure like cold water.
She had just stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped only in a thin, white bath towel. The edge of the towel draped gently over her shoulders, swaying slightly with her movements, revealing large expanses of snow-white, delicate skin that shimmered softly under the light.
Her hair was still dripping with water droplets, and a few stray strands clung to her cheeks, adding a touch of unintentional tenderness to her appearance.
From this angle, Liu Wanqing's beauty is quite distinctive, which is also one of her assets.
Liu Wanqing knew that she could definitely win over that kid if she wanted to, but she was unwilling to give up her body.
Beauty is something that is both pure and subtly alluring, like the dew on a summer morning—fresh and refined, yet unexpectedly reflecting an alluring glow.
Beneath the bath towel, her figure was graceful and her curves were exquisite. Even in such casual attire, it was hard to conceal the charm that emanated from her very being.
Meanwhile, sitting on the sofa in the suite was her best friend, Lin Youran, a rising star who had just entered the entertainment industry.
Lin Youran's beauty is completely different from Liu Wanqing's, yet equally stunning.
She has a classic oval face, fair and radiant skin that seems to glow, and large, bright eyes that are lively and expressive. Every blink is like the brightest star in the night sky, impossible to ignore.
Her nose is small and straight, her lips are full and elastic, and when she smiles, the corners of her mouth turn up slightly, forming two sweet dimples that make people want to get close to her.
Lin Youran's temperament leans towards sweetness and cuteness, yet she also possesses a grand and elegant air; she is the kind of beauty who can easily pull off a variety of styles.
Her outfit was simple yet stylish: a loose white T-shirt paired with denim shorts and white sneakers. It was casual and understated, but her outstanding temperament was undeniable.
Even in such a casual outfit, her long, straight legs and perfect body proportions cannot be hidden, making people sigh that she is a natural clothes hanger.
Someone who can be best friends with Liu Wanqing must be no ordinary person.
Liu Wanqing's gaze lingered on Lin Youran for a moment, a wicked plan forming in her mind.
Although Lin Youran has only been in the industry for a short time, she has already made a name for herself in some low-budget films and TV series thanks to her outstanding appearance and unremitting efforts. However, she has been unable to become a big star due to the lack of a strong background and sufficient resources.
In this highly competitive industry, sometimes beauty and talent are not enough to guarantee everything; opportunity and connections are equally important.
Do you want to become famous?
Liu Wanqing didn't want to sacrifice herself, as it was not worth it, but her mother was asking her to do it.
"Yes, of course I want to."
Lin Youran pouted. She had no resources at the moment and could only play a maid.
"If you help me accomplish something, I'll invest a huge sum of money in you and make you the leading lady."
Liu Wanqing walked over and whispered something in her best friend's ear.
Upon hearing this, Lin Youran's eyes widened.
this?
Is this a way of asking me to seduce that rich young master?
Is it for real? Or just acting?
Lin Youran said in a low voice again.
"What do you think? It would be best if it were real, but otherwise we'd have to leave some traces."
Liu Wanqing looked at her best friend.
"trace?"
Lin Youran didn't understand.
Liu Wanqing spoke softly again, and Lin Youran's face flushed slightly.
Is this okay?
"I've already pulled the strings, you figure it out."
Liu Wanqing said with certainty.
"Okay, it's settled then. I'll help you, and you have to invest in me."
Lin Youran has no acting opportunities now; she either has to sleep with clients or she's been blacklisted.
Spending time with an old man is the same as spending time with a young master.
Besides, Liu Wanqing is my best friend, she wouldn't betray me.
"Yes, I'll set things up. I'll get him involved."
Liu Wanqing said with certainty.
My mother made me come, but I didn't want to. I was only with that boy for his own benefit. Now that he's no longer of any value, she definitely doesn't want to give him her body.
He has no right to touch himself.
And since his mother was so badly harmed, it must have been him who did it, even though there's no evidence.
But my mother only went through the north gate because she believed him.
Then an accident happened.

shop.
Zhang Fan looked at some prescriptions left at home. Luckily, he had X-ray vision and could analyze the ingredients of these remaining pills; otherwise, he really wouldn't have been able to make these things.
The reason no one dared to touch this shop was because of the "Unbreakable Pill," something the old man absolutely needed.
There's nothing else available, and the medicines from outside don't work for the old man; only this old family remedy works.
Now, taking advantage of my free time, I've made some more "Unbreakable Pills" in the shop.
With X-ray vision, one can accurately determine the ingredients, and successfully research it using the alchemy furnace left over from the family.
However, some other pills kept failing, and Zhang Fan didn't know why.
Many people are now eyeing what's inside.
My family has been in the medicine business for generations, and we were once imperial physicians. We also had a famous Taoist priest, so we know these things.
Zhang Fan held a milky-white pill, a beauty-enhancing elixir made of all-natural ingredients. As for its effects, he didn't know; he would need to find someone to try it to find out.
Nowadays, no one in China believes in so-called ancient remedies anymore; they think they're all scams. Of course, there are just too many scammers, and not enough fools to go around.
Authentic ancient remedies still have their uses.
Looking at the pills in front of him, Zhang Fan put them into the jade box, intending to have a few minor celebrities try them out and see how they worked.
Because of limited funds, we could only look for companies that weren't very well-known.
Looking through his contacts, Zhang Fan thought of Lin Youran. She had only recently debuted, so her prices shouldn't be too high. He wanted to try contacting her and then offer her a small commission.
So Zhang Fan dialed Lin Youran's number to see what her quote was.
Zhang Fan had no idea that Lin Youran was with Liu Wanqing and was even plotting an evil scheme against him.
Zhang Fan just thought Lin Youran was quite naive. Of course, the two weren't familiar with each other; they had only met a few times.
I had no idea I would fall into this trap.
There was a moment of silence on the other end, as if they didn't believe he would call her, and then they said they would come right away.
He seemed a little excited.
Zhang Fan didn't know what she was so excited about. Did she think she was still the eldest son of the Zhang family?
There's still a lot of money?
She hasn't inherited any family property yet, so where did the money come from? Besides, she issued a notice saying she wanted to give up her inheritance, so she should have noticed that.
Wanting a high endorsement fee won't work; I can't afford it!
