After pondering for a few seconds, Shang Yan came up with a brilliant idea.
He smiled and said, "I have thought of a way, but I need you to take the lead."
Yu Sheng looked at Shang Yan with a puzzled expression: "Me, carry the banner? What do you mean?"
To prevent eavesdroppers, Shang Yan leaned close to Yu Sheng's ear and whispered the solution in a voice only the two of them could hear.
Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, I can't do it..."
Shang Yan said with a serious expression, "If you can't do it, I suggest we leave before they arrive, otherwise we'll definitely be exposed."
Yu Sheng naturally didn't want to leave empty-handed, so she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll do it! But... I'm afraid that if you're not here, I'll be exposed."
"As long as you act in a way that fits your persona, you won't be exposed. Simply put, it's about being cool!"
Yu Sheng looked at Shang Yan with a tearful expression: "What... are you pretending?"
To demonstrate to Yu Sheng how to serve, Shang Yan lit a cigar, sat down on the sofa, and placed his hands on the back of the sofa, striking a pose like a big shot.
He looked at Yu Sheng and asked, "Do you understand how to pretend now?"
Yu Sheng nodded awkwardly.
Shang Yan handed her the cigar: "Pack it up, let me see."
"..."
Yu Sheng was devastated at that moment.
If she had known beforehand that she would be carrying the entire burden alone, she would have attended an acting training course for two days in advance, but now it's too late to say anything.
Yu Sheng glanced at Shang Yan and said in a slightly reproachful tone, "You shouldn't have gone to find Sasha just now. If you hadn't gone to her, you wouldn't have had to worry about her finding out."
"Don't you want to know what Gu Ye and she talked about when they were together?" Shang Yan asked tentatively.
Although I know those things are meaningless, it would be a lie to say I don't want to know.
Yu Sheng didn't say anything more. She pursed her lips and took the cigar from Shang Yan with a stiff upper lip. Before she could even put it in her mouth, she was choked and coughed violently, almost bringing tears to her eyes. Luckily, she was wearing sunglasses, otherwise she would have looked very embarrassed.
Yu Sheng suppressed a cough, bit down on her cigar, and sat down on the sofa, mimicking Shang Yan's posture. There was no mirror in front of her, so she didn't know her own posture or whether she was convincingly acting, but Shang Yan's expression seemed to have already given her the answer.
Yu Sheng stood up timidly, took the cigarette from her mouth, and asked, "How is it? Is it alright?"
Shang Yan wiped his face, forcing back the smile that was about to spill out, and said in a tone that was hard to describe, "That's it then. There's no time for you to practice anymore. They're coming soon, I have to go. Remember what I just said?"
Yu Sheng nodded nervously.
Shang Yan squeezed Yu Sheng's shoulder. Although he was worried about her, he had to leave, not only because he was afraid of being discovered by Sasha, but also because he needed to take this opportunity to investigate some things.
"Call me immediately if anything happens."
"Um."
After Shang Yan left, Yu Sheng was left alone in the large private room.
Losing Shang Yan is like a child entering a den of wolves, forced to face everything alone.
She was very uneasy, nervous, and terrified; she couldn't sit still or stand still...
"Yu Sheng, don't be nervous. I told you, as long as you do what he says, you won't be discovered. Take a deep breath, inhale, exhale..."
As Yu Sheng calmed herself down, she caught a glimpse of the wine on the coffee table. Thinking that alcohol would embolden even the most timid, she unscrewed the bottle and took a few big gulps.
Because she rarely drinks alcohol and has no alcohol resistance in her body, her mind became hazy after just a few drinks.
She suddenly remembered a rap talent show she had watched a while ago, where the contestants were all incredibly arrogant, cool, and unique.
She had only one feeling at the time—they were living such carefree lives!
She didn't know if she would ever have the chance to live that kind of carefree life again, but tonight she could live it to the fullest!
As she was thinking this, Sister Hong walked in with five or six women of different styles.
Seeing that Yu Sheng was the only one in the private room, Sister Hong asked, "Little brother, isn't Daniel here?"
Yu Sheng lit a cigarette, held it at an angle between his lips, and looked at Sister Hong, saying, "Sister Hong, I'm not a little brother..."
Although her specialty is piano, she has studied vocal music and knows how to change her voice.
At this moment, her voice transformed into that of a boy, matching her physical appearance.
She deliberately spoke the last three words one by one, implying a hidden meaning that everyone present naturally understood. They not only laughed but also glanced at her 'there'.
"Alright, alright, Sister Hong, I misspoke. I should be punished!"
Sister Hong swayed her slender waist as she walked over, poured herself a glass of wine, downed it in one gulp, and then looked at Yu Sheng with a smile, saying, "Are you satisfied now?"
Yu Sheng didn't say anything, but clapped her hands lazily.
Her hands were clearly those of a woman, so the makeup artist paired them with leather gloves, which made her look both cool and aloof.
"I'm glad you're satisfied. Sister Hong, I still don't know your name."
While asking questions in a soft, gentle voice, Hongjie reached out to hug Yusheng's arm. Yusheng's body was even softer than hers, and she was afraid that if Hongjie touched her, she would find out. So, she dodged away before Hongjie could touch her.
Yu Sheng knew that everyone here used a pseudonym, so she used the name of Red, the male protagonist of "Gone with the Wind".
“Your name is as handsome as you, Sister Hong will remember it.” Sister Hong said with a smile, then asked, “Where’s Daniel?”
"I went to make a phone call."
Sister Hong had no doubts. "Since he went to make the call, we'll just leave him be. Anyway, he personally selected Sasha, so it's none of his business."
Yu Sheng noticed that after Hong Jie finished speaking, she looked at the last girl who came in.
