Chapter 23 The Unspoken Rules
Chi Zhao stayed with Yan Zhou in the ancient world until they grew old, and in the end, she gave him a daughter as he had wished.
The couple's daughter was mischievous, but Yanzhou was always very patient and doting on her, and she always stopped Yanzhou from disciplining her daughter.
Their lives were peaceful and uneventful. They weren't particularly wealthy, but they always had enough to eat and wear. In the end, Xiaozhou died peacefully in her arms.
He said he was happy every day he spent with her, and that if there was a next life, they would still be together.
Chi Zhao spent his entire life finally convincing Yu Zhouwan that she would never love another man and would always love him.
【99……】
Although I know this is just a world in a book, my boyfriend is a real boyfriend.
Even after she died, she couldn't hide her grief.
Her daughter, trying to hold back her sobs, comforted her, but she could only lift her aged eyelids slightly to indicate that she was alright.
Their children were well-educated and talented in their studies. One of them even became a third-ranked scholar in the imperial examinations, so she didn't need to worry about him too much. Now that Yanzhou was dead, she should leave too.
99 still looked like the little blue bee from when we first met, gently fluttering its wings, and even seemed a little sad. [Host, host, don't be sad, Xiaozhou has had a very happy life!]
Chi Zhao naturally knew she was taking good care of her boyfriend, so she nodded, unconcerned. Instead, as if hinting at something, she softly asked, "99, do you think I'll meet him again in the next world?"
As soon as 99's sadness subsided, she immediately looked up at the sky, feeling a little guilty. She spun around a couple of times, her voice even sweeter, "Host, host, 99 doesn't know either. We'll meet again if fate allows. Are you preparing to leave this world, host?"
[Okay, let's prepare to leave.]
Their daughters are already independent and mothers themselves; they can live without her.
That very night, the old lady of the Chi family also passed away along with the main husband.
Lord Chi was devastated and unable to attend court for several days.
When Chi Zhao woke up again, he was in a second world. He was surrounded by clinking glasses and dazzling, multicolored lights that were almost blinding.
She instinctively called out to the system, "[99, where did you send me?]"
The first world ended perfectly, and 99 was in an extremely good mood. She circled around the host before replying in a cheerful tone, "Nightclub, host, would you like to check the plot?"
...
Who is wearing this this time? Could it be some thug?
Chi Zhao remained silent for a while, then realized that his identity wasn't the issue, and asked with barely concealed eagerness,
Tell me first who the target of the mission is.
99 diligently searched through the data: [This time, we're going to rescue Lin Huai, the aloof male star in an entertainment novel.]
Chi Zhao was taken aback.
She thought she would hear a name related to Yanzhou.
Wasn't that how it was in the last world? Yanzhou, Zhouwan.
Isn't Yan Zhou the male supporting character in this world?
Chi Zhao frowned, paused for a moment, and then spoke, "Hmm, show me the plot."
She and Yanzhou will meet again. Even if they are no longer in this world, she will revive Yanzhou after completing her mission.
There's no need to confine ourselves to one world; there will still be opportunities to meet.
A dark glint flashed in Chi Zhao's eyes; he had finally grasped the plot.
A flood of information rushed into her mind, causing her to frown slightly in discomfort.
Until all the plot points unfolded in my mind.
This mission targets the villainous male supporting character in an entertainment industry novel, who serves to highlight the male lead's villainous nature.
He was originally aloof and resilient, praised by fans as a white lotus blooming in the mud, pure and unparalleled. But such a good description is never something a male supporting character can possess. Another white lotus that emerges from the mud unsullied debuts in the entertainment industry with the image of Xiao Lin Huai, and he will replace him.
Because of his handsome appearance, Lin Huai was frequently asked by investors to accompany them for drinks and engage in unspoken rules. He had a strong sense of pride and always refused firmly. However, surrounded by wolves, if he didn't agree, he would not have resources. Without resources, he would be looked down upon and humiliated. He encountered far too many disdainful looks, but he still held firm to his principles.
Until he shielded the male lead from disaster and was forced by the investors, and the incident was suddenly exposed, it didn't matter whether he was willing or not. All the audience knew was that his resources suddenly improved after spending a night with a certain sugar daddy.
Lin Huai began to face a barrage of insults. The innocent and pure Bai Lian fell into the mud, and his career was ruined. The male lead he had saved stepped on him and became the new Bai Lian in the entertainment industry. They said he was a rich young master, innocent and pure, and would never accompany a woman for resources. Only such a person is a true Bai Lian who remains untainted by the mud.
Only Lin Huai unintentionally learned that he used to be just an unknown 18th-tier male star in the entertainment industry. Everything he had was also obtained through the help of the powerful figures behind him. The so-called rich second generation was just a persona created for him by the powerful figures. Even that incident was orchestrated by the powerful figures to help their mistresses rise to fame. The other party was also there on the day he was forced, but she only took away her canary...
They did the same thing, so why is he covered in mud while the other person is spotless?
As a result, Lin Huai turned to the dark side. He actually found an opportunity to stab the female and male protagonists, as well as all those who had bullied him, to death, and his little world collapsed.
After reading it, Chi Zhao took a deep breath, feeling so angry that he was about to have a heart attack.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Huai's actions.
I even feel that the female lead and the male lead are crazy. They are both big shots, so why don't they just throw resources at the people they like and make them famous? Why do they have to debut under someone else's name? Debuting is one thing, but kicking someone when they are down is another. If you don't offend people, who will?
If you don't die, who will?
"Sister Chi, you always come alone. How about we pick two handsome guys to serve you properly today?"
Chi Zhao pressed her throbbing temples, opened her eyes and scanned the people in the booth. There were both women and men, and the colorful lights were dazzling. She could tell that it was probably a peaceful era before the apocalypse, and she felt a little nostalgic.
Of course, it's a nostalgia for peaceful and stable times, not a nostalgia for nightclubs.
The woman on the sofa suddenly stood up, picked up her sunglasses from the table, put them on, and said with a slightly indifferent expression, "No need, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, I'll be leaving now."
After she finished speaking, without giving anyone time to react, she grabbed her suit jacket from her lap and strode away.
The others seemed used to her leaving whenever she wanted and didn't say anything.
The system told her that today, investors would be engaging in unspoken rules with the male supporting characters.
The male supporting character got drunk and was sent there by the director and his agent. He almost got sexually assaulted, which severely damaged his mental health and indirectly led to his mental instability. Later, he turned evil and went on a killing spree.
She had to get there quickly to save Lin Huai.
Even though Yanzhou may not exist in this world, she still wants to do her best.
.
According to the system data, the original owner's car was parked outside, and the driver was waiting in the car.
Chi Zhao bent down to get into the car and gave an address.
"I have something urgent to attend to, please drive faster."
Fearing he might delay things, the driver quickly responded, and the car sped up to the top speed.
99 was frantic, pacing around in circles. [Host, hurry! The male supporting character has been made drunk, and they're bullying people in the private room!]
Chi Zhao was also anxious, afraid that she wouldn't be able to revive her boyfriend if she didn't complete the mission. She was extremely irritable, and the system's words only made her more agitated.
[I know, but can I even fly there? You don't have teleportation abilities, so shut up!]
99, who hadn't been told to shut up in a long time: 【!! Hmph, I'm in a hurry, but what are you going to do later? The character I created for the host has a very high status, she's the female lead's aunt, the president of the Lanka Corporation, the host can use her power to bully people~】
Okay, I understand.
The identities the system gave her were all suitable for her to act in. Regardless of whether Lin Huai was Yan Zhou or not, she looked down on the kind of unspoken rules.
Soon, a luxury car pulled up outside the hotel.
99 kept urging, "[Hurry, hurry, host, you can still make it there! Oh, they're making the male supporting character beg them! Oh my god, my poor little... little Huai!]"
Chi Zhao didn't notice the other person's sudden change in address. She was also anxious, her clothes fluttering as she rushed in through the door. Following 99's directions, she finally found the private room for the crew's dinner. Outside, it was quiet, as if nothing had happened, but inside…
She stepped forward with a cold expression and kicked open the door to the private room.
The hotel manager happened to see it and screamed, "What are you doing!"
The people inside the room who were about to molest the man stopped abruptly. Displeased, they looked out and saw that the room reeked of alcohol and had a lingering lewd smell. Several women were holding men in their arms, their postures making people want to vomit.
Chi Zhao's gaze swept past the crowd and landed on the slender figure kneeling on the ground, curled up, and trembling in the very center.
