Chapter 10
Only then did Lu Zixi realize that the hand he had put into his pocket had touched the "Prophet Card" that he had inadvertently brought out. Perhaps some hidden method of use was triggered, and it immediately verified the identity of the person closest to Lu Zixi - Yan Yunzhen, the Prophet.
In the Werewolf game, there can only be one prophet in a game. He didn't understand what the appearance of two prophets at the same time meant. What made him even more terrified was that no matter what the reason was, it confirmed one fact - Yan Yunzhen must have a "prophet card" in his hand that was exactly the same as his own!
He had this card because of the red envelope group, but what about Yan Yunzhen? Could it be that he also...
Lu Zixi shook his head, trying to drive out the absurd thoughts from his mind as much as possible.
His subconscious intuition told him that he should not act rashly, but should instead try to find out indirectly and ask the group of systems before making any plans.
It's hard to say... maybe some people have special physiques, born to be prophets, not born to be commoners. This is consistent with Yan Yunzhen's golden background. It's just an identity. It's enough to know that he is a good person.
Lu Zixi thought this as he rubbed his face, which was getting hotter due to his shy physiological reaction.
————
Yan Yunzhen kept his word and did not take him to a public hospital. Instead, he drove him to a private hospital himself. The itinerary was completely closed and there was not even a driver.
The warm midday sun streamed through the front window, shimmering down on the two of them. Yan Yunzhen, still habitually half-frowning, his slender fingers resting on the steering wheel, the dial on his wrist reflecting a cold metallic gleam. His fair skin, nearly Caucasian, shone brightly in the sunlight, yet not appearing excessively delicate, instead imbuing him with a unique beauty, like the perpetual snow-capped iceberg. Though mixed-race, Yan Yunzhen's eyes were long and upward-curved, their gleaming brilliance radiating a constant commanding presence. His eyes, the only thing that hinted at an Eastern influence within his otherwise chiseled face, allowed him to navigate a diverse range of subjects, both ancient and modern, both Eastern and Western.
It looks good, it is indeed good-looking, but when his stomach hurts, Lu Zixi has no time to appreciate it no matter how good-looking it is.
Lu Zixi huddled in the passenger seat, pressing down on his stomach that was starting to stir again. He couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have a pillow or a hot water bottle or something?"
Yan Yunzhen turned his head and looked at him strangely, his eyes clearly saying, do you think I am someone who should have these things?
"Okay, I asked in vain." Lu Zixi waved his hands in frustration, exhaled heavily, and tried to close his eyes, hoping to use sleep to resist the pain.
There was a hint of unintentional grievance in his tone, like a small hook, tickling people's hearts here and there, making Yan Yunzhen, who had originally intended to ignore him, couldn't help but glance at him again, wanting to see what expression he had.
His mouth was pouting, and his little face was twisted into a ball. He was a little thin due to long-term stomach problems and malnutrition. He looked like a steamed dumpling that was obviously made with cut corners, making people want to stuff meat into it.
"Didn't you have breakfast?" Yan Yunzhen suddenly asked.
"Ah?" Lu Zixi opened his eyes and looked at him confusedly.
"You have stomach problems, don't you know how to eat on time? It's almost lunchtime, and you tell me you haven't had breakfast yet?" Yan Yunzhen didn't know why, but he felt a surge of unknowing fire rising up. "If you don't want treatment, just say so earlier. Don't waste my time here."
"I forgot," Lu Zixi said confidently, "I wanted to eat it."
"You'd better not tell me that you are doing this to save your appetite for the next food show." Yan Yunzhen's tone was a little gloomy.
Then I might really consider taking back the money I spent on you, Yan Yunzhen thought.
"How is that possible? Do you think I want to be in this industry? I've figured it out a long time ago. If you don't have the skills, don't take on such a delicate job." Lu Zixi snorted, "My agent won't let me change my career."
"Then come to Yuanhong," Yan Yunzhen stared at him for a while and gestured, "There's food there, help yourself."
"The young master of Yuanhong hid bear biscuits in the car?" Lu Zixi opened the storage compartment and looked at it. He was delighted and grabbed a bag and looked at it over and over again. "You really have a childlike heart."
"Eat it or not." Yan Yunzhen retracted his gaze, and the coldness in his tone seemed somewhat deliberate.
"No, no, no, I love them." Lu Zixi didn't bother to be polite and directly opened the biscuit bag. "When I was a kid, I always believed that biscuits of different colors tasted different. In order to tell the difference, I ate countless bags of Little Bear biscuits and spent all my pocket money on them. Even so, I never got tired of them."
Yan Yunzhen didn't seem to realize he was smiling, but his eyebrows were indeed curved, and he looked in a good mood: "You're a boy, and you spend all your pocket money on food. Doesn't anyone laugh at you?"
"Not only that, my dad almost beat me up. He said I was a loser and that he gave me money so I could learn how to manage my finances, not so I could eat it all," Lu Zixi seemed to have forgotten even the stomachache as he ate while gesturing. "Then, when I was a kid, I was very short. I had a small head all the way to junior high school, with baby fat like hamsters on my cheeks. My dad was very disappointed with me, saying that if I ate too many cookies, I wouldn't grow taller... But hey, didn't I grow taller all of a sudden?"
"Aren't you an orphan?" Yan Yunzhen suddenly asked.
Lu Zixi was stunned. He only remembered that he had not mentioned this matter to Yan Yunzhen back then, so it was okay to just chat about it. In a moment of carelessness, he actually forgot that the original owner of his body was indeed an orphan. For a moment, he felt a little embarrassed to finish the conversation, so he could only casually explain: "I lost my father after junior high school."
Yan Yunzhen didn't say anything else, just looked away.
Lu Zixi's heart was pounding, and he continued to hold the biscuit and chew it.
No conversation along the way.
"You'd better not be hiding anything from me," Yan Yunzhen gave Lu Zixi a warning look before getting off the car. "I hate betrayal and deception the most in my life."
Lu Zixi's hair stood on end when he saw that thorny look, and he shrank back into the car in fear.
Yan Yunzhen was still staring at him.
He just felt that there was something strange about this kid. It was an inexplicable intuition, or rather, when a person who has always closed himself off in all aspects suddenly finds that there is someone who can easily break into his life and even sit in his passenger seat and eat cookies, he will always have a sense of crisis that his private territory is being coveted.
"Here's one." Lu Zixi couldn't stand being stared at any longer. He looked left and right, up and down, but couldn't find what was wrong with him. He simply handed over the biscuits he had treasured all the way, and reluctantly said in a generous manner, "Forget it, the whole box is yours."
This was originally mine!
Yan Yunzhen felt as powerless as if he had punched cotton. It was like you thought you were in a fierce battle with a business competitor, calculating every move carefully, but in the end he thought he was just being coquettish with you and was even in the mood to raise his paw and meow at you.
"Keep it for yourself." Yan Yunzhen sighed heavily and strode into the hospital.
The private hospital was relatively quiet. To ensure privacy, the departments were largely separated, and the corridor Yan Yunzhen led him through was deserted. What surprised Lu Zixi was that Yan Yunzhen had hired a Chinese medicine practitioner for him. The old man had white hair and a youthful face, a rosy complexion, and a voice as loud as a bell, deafening. After taking his pulse and completing his examinations, he began to scold, "Young people, if you abuse your health at such a young age, you will suffer a lot when you are old!"
After saying that, the old man began to criticize his daily routine and diet. To Lu Zixi's surprise, the old man was almost right about what he said. At the end, he wrote down a few prescriptions and asked the apprentice who came with him to take them to get the medicine.
Lu Zixi was willing to be criticized by the doctor and was even a little grateful. The problem was that Yan Yunzhen was standing right next to him with an expression that said, "Yes, yes, yes, you're right to scold me." Lu Zixi glared at him again and again, but Yan Yunzhen ignored him and took out a notebook to start taking notes.
Lu Zixi was a little angry at first, wondering why this person was so happy when he was scolded. But as he watched, he suddenly understood.
Yan Yunzhen debuted early and became famous early. Since he appeared on the big screen, he has never left. This is basically the same as the normal path. The only difference is that he can completely give up his work in China and develop abroad wholeheartedly, but he insists on ensuring exposure in China. In the eyes of foreigners, this mixed-race person with a pair of beautiful and sharp eyes is a "familiar face of ours" rather than an outsider who steals business. His acting range is not limited to those defined "yellow-skinned images". This is an opportunity that countless people are scrambling for. But I don’t know if it’s because he was born with it, but Lu Zixi has never seen Yan Yunzhen care about it. Although his work focus is abroad, overall, he still handles both domestic and foreign work.
A few days before his death, I heard that Yan Yunzhen had taken on another film, which was set in the Republic of China and was about warlords fighting each other. The role was very interesting. He was not the general with a sword in hand that he usually played, but an old Chinese medicine doctor who opened a Chinese medicine clinic in a downtown area.
It seems that Yan Yunzhen is here to seek advice.
"Let's have dinner together first. Then, back to Yuanhong, you can play a scene with me." After Yan Yunzhen finished asking the question, he pondered for a moment while looking at his notes, and then made the decision, "Then let's have dinner together."
"I'm still a patient." Lu Zixi muttered pitifully.
"So I have to make sure the patient eats and takes medicine," Yan Yunzhen said, looking at him. "I want the person I recruited from Yuanhong to die in Changxing from a stomach ailment."
"Bah, you can say auspicious things..." Lu Zixi almost opened his mouth to retort again, but quickly took back his words, "Yeah, yes, thank you, senior."
"You still remember that I'm your senior." Yan Yunzhen glanced at him and picked up the wrapped medicine. "Let's go."
Lu Zixi followed him into the car and leaned on the back seat this time. Although Yan Yunzhen felt a little strange, he was not a curious person, so he just let him go.
He didn't know that Lu Zixi secretly took out his cell phone and opened the group chat.
[Eating Watermelon System]: I have a question for everyone! Has anyone online ever used the Werewolf Killing System... or the current Shengun System props?
【Seducing System】: What’s the matter? I’ve used it before.
[White Moonlight System]: Forget it, I will report you for cheating under real name.
【Seducing System】:???
[White Moonlight System]: You still have the nerve to ask questions. Let me ask you, who was the host who simply asked for a Cupid card when he couldn't complete the task?
[Apocalypse Survival System]: ...You mean, since its host couldn't seduce a man, it simply used Cupid's card to match the two of them as a couple, forcing them to complete their mission...
【White Moonlight System】: Haha, it’s not finished yet
【Eating Melon System】: Why?
[White Moonlight System]: [Smile] It didn't expect that it entered a Western fantasy world, and the target of the strategy is a real werewolf, the kind that howls at the moon. The good guys and the werewolves are together, and they need to kill everyone to win.
【Seducing System】: ...
【Eating Watermelon System】: ...
[Seducing System]: [Fuck your mother, little Jerry.jpg]
[White Moonlight System]: [Fuck your dad, Old Tom.jpg]
[Melon-eating system]: Hey, truce! Everyone, look at me!
[Eating Watermelon System]: Why did my host, holding the prophet card, find out another prophet?
【Seduction System】：? ? ? Unseen before
[White Moonlight System]: Unheard of
[Shengun System]: Well, I can’t say that absolutely, but theoretically it’s still possible.
[Shengun System]: For example... there is more than one host in a world.
