Chapter 825 Nothing Happened
After entering, Wang Ziyu stood awkwardly against the wall at the doorway.
The hotel rooms are all small, and Liu Tong's room is no exception. You can see the whole layout at a glance. Besides a bed, there is only a small table and a chair in the room.
The sound of the door closing made Wang Ziyu's body tremble. Liu Tong saw this and a meaningful smile appeared in his eyes.
Having been in the industry for many years, he knows actresses all too well. He knows exactly which actresses are easy to seduce and which methods are effective.
For someone as innocent and naive as Wang Ziyu, all you need to do is be sincere enough for the other person to completely trust you.
"Brother Tong, I... I've practiced for several hours. I can film this scene well."
Wang Ziyu spoke cautiously, afraid that Liu Tong would give her role to someone else again.
Liu Tong smiled gently at her: "Of course you're fine. Don't just stand at the door, come in."
With that, he turned around and walked to the bedside to sit down.
Wang Ziyu looked at the bed, then at the chair next to the table, and pulled out the chair to sit down. However, because the space was so limited, even sitting down, the distance between them was still very close.
Liu Tong moved closer to Wang Ziyu's position.
Wang Ziyu quickly took out her phone and, while searching for her lines, said, "Brother Tong, I'll read it to you now. I've improved."
Liu Tong raised his hand and pressed it down, patting it reassuringly: "Don't rush, you're too nervous right now, you're likely to make mistakes. If you don't perform well, I might..."
One sentence was enough to make Wang Ziyu visibly nervous.
Liu Tong revealed a triumphant smile: "I was just teasing you. Let's have a quick chat first to ease your tension."
Wang Ziyu pursed her lips, not wanting to talk but not daring to refuse.
Liu Tong spoke first: "Is this your first time going abroad?"
"Yes." Wang Ziyu nodded.
Do you like living abroad?
"It's alright, but I still think it's better in China."
"That's normal. Look, everyone's saying they want to go back soon. Just bear with it a little longer, it'll be over in a few days."
Wang Ziyu nodded obediently again.
After chatting for a few minutes, her nervousness actually eased a bit.
Looking at her so closely, Liu Tong couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion. She was truly beautiful; her eyelashes fluttered like two small fans when she lowered her eyes.
They knocked him unconscious!
"You actually really hate me, don't you?" Liu Tong suddenly asked.
Wang Ziyu was terrified and instinctively shook her head repeatedly in denial: "Without Tong-ge, how could I hate you?"
How dare she?
"It's alright, I understand." Liu Tong smiled and said, "Actually, this is the norm in the entertainment industry. You're so beautiful and have no background, so it's only natural that you'd be targeted."
"If you want to continue acting and stay in this industry, you'd better be mentally prepared. This may sound scary, but you know, everyone says the entertainment industry is the most chaotic place, but the reality is even scarier than what's being said."
Wang Ziyu looked away in fear. She had only been in the industry for a short time, but she had already experienced a lot of malice firsthand.
She didn't think Liu Tong was deliberately scaring her, because she had experienced it and was experiencing it now.
"Sigh." Liu Tong suddenly sighed with regret, "I feel bad for you too, but there's nothing I can do. You all know the relationship between Ke'er and me. Since she chose to follow me, as the man behind her, I must do my best for her, right?"
Wang Ziyu's mind went blank, and she nodded when she heard the question.
Seeing her nod, Liu Tong continued, "So, if you want to develop well in this industry and get more resources, you'll need to find a backer!"
"Ziyu, look at you..."
Just as Liu Tong was about to get to the point, the room suddenly went dark.
The power is out!
Wang Ziyu is terrified of the dark, and in such a tense atmosphere, the sudden darkness around her caused her to scream uncontrollably.
"ah--"
Her scream startled Liu Tong.
The hotel was old and not soundproof, and although he was cunning and shrewd, he didn't want to make a big fuss about it.
So Liu Tong instinctively reached out to pull Wang Ziyu: "Shh, shh! Ziyu, don't shout!"
Upon feeling Liu Tong's touch, Wang Ziyu's hair stood on end. She screamed and stood up, but in her panic, she accidentally knocked over the chair behind her, tripped, and fell backward.
Liu Tong grabbed Wang Ziyu, and her small body also lunged forward.
A muffled "bang" was heard.
Due to limited space, Wang Ziyu fell and hit the back of her head against the wall behind her, then sat down on the ground with a thud.
Liu Tong then pounced on her.
Ignoring the pain in the back of her head, Wang Ziyu desperately pushed Liu Tong away, yelling, "Get away! Get away!"
In a panic, Liu Tong groped in the dark to cover Wang Ziyu's mouth, his hands fumbling in front of him, finding Wang Ziyu's waist, chest, and neck...
Once they found the mouth, they covered it tightly, whispering, "Don't scream, don't scream, don't let anyone hear!"
Wang Ziyu was terrified and kicked and struggled wildly with her hands and feet, tears streaming down her face in the dark.
"Tzuyu! Tzuyu! Listen to me... I didn't mean to do anything to you, calm down!"
"Shh-"
Liu Tong restrained her hands and feet, covered her mouth, and kept comforting her.
About five minutes later, the lights in the room finally came on.
Those five minutes felt like an eternity to Wang Ziyu!
Her pretty face was flushed from crying, and her hair was disheveled as she stared at Liu Tong.
All of this happened unexpectedly for Liu Tong. The dilapidated hotel always had power outages from time to time, and tonight was such a coincidence.
He originally intended to lure Wang Ziyu into willingly taking the bait by coaxing her; he never intended to force Wang Ziyu, nor did he ever force anyone else.
Because if the development is done willingly, there will be no problems later.
The nature of coercion is completely different; he's not stupid!
"Look how scared you are. I didn't do anything to you. You're still not used to a power outage? Your scream really scared me."
Liu Tong tentatively loosened his grip: "Don't shout anymore!"
Wang Ziyu was breathing heavily due to excessive tension, and the rise and fall of her chest made Liu Tong unconsciously look in that direction.
Upon seeing this, Wang Ziyu clutched her chest, used her other hand to get up from the ground, and quickly ran outside.
Liu Tong didn't chase after her, but coldly said from behind, "Don't gossip to others, nothing happened between us."
Wang Ziyu couldn't hear what Liu Tong was saying at all. She opened the door and ran away, forgetting even her phone.
Was that a scream just now?
In Shen Li's room, she looked at Xiao Yun and asked uncertainly.
The next second, her room door was pounded on, accompanied by Wang Ziyu's urgent cries: "Sister Shen Li, Sister Shen Li, it's me, open the door."
