Su Chen gritted her teeth inwardly; for now, she could only pretend to be stupid.
She excitedly grabbed the female lead's hand and said, "Oh my! Li Nuo, what brings you here too? Isn't that the kind person we met yesterday? Why are you two here together?"
This barrage of questions completely baffled Lin Nuo, and she realized that she had indeed gone to the bar with Lu Fan yesterday, but now she was in Lu Fan's bed...
Is the kind person referring to Lu Fan?
Then Su Chen looked at the male lead.
"I'm so sorry to have troubled you to help Li Nuo yesterday. I had a stomachache and went to the toilet, and when I came out, you two were gone. I guess you took her home! Thank you so much! You're such a kind person!"
Su Chen looked extremely grateful, bowing and scraping as she thanked him.
This left the male protagonist at a loss. He had initially suspected she had left on purpose, but now it seemed unlikely. Instead, it was his own actions yesterday...
Lu Fan coughed awkwardly: "You're welcome."
Su Chen knew perfectly well what the male lead was embarrassed about; he must be blaming himself for what he did yesterday.
Meanwhile, the female lead's face turned pale for some reason, and her hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly.
Su Chen tilted her head: "What happened to the system's female lead? Did she get a terminal illness?"
System: "Can't you wish people well for once?! Do you even know anything about terminal illnesses?!"
"Oh dear! Novels! TV dramas! Which female lead doesn't have some kind of illness? That's what makes it interesting!" Su Chen was now certain that the female lead had some kind of illness.
The system sighed helplessly: "Look! They're heartbroken and shocked!"
"Huh? Is it sadness or shock?"
"How should I know!"
"Alright, alright!"
The female lead gave a stiff smile and said, "Excuse me, I'm not feeling well, I'll be leaving now."
"Oh? Li Nuo, are you feeling unwell? I'll have my husband drive you to the hospital."
The villainous boss next to her was unfortunately called out, and raised an eyebrow when she heard her say "my man".
"No need, I can go back by myself," Lin Nuo declined.
Su Chen didn't try to stop her. What was the point of trying to stop her? Would she be waiting for the female and male leads to continue doubting her? Would she be trying to sow discord between them?
She feigned regret and said, "Oh, I see... Okay then, be careful on your way home! Watch out for cars! Call me when you get home!"
Admittedly, calling is just a polite gesture, and the female protagonist didn't have her number either.
"Okay, goodbye." Lin Nuo turned and left.
Lu Fan frowned and followed.
Watching the two figures disappear into the hall, Song Ming whispered in his ear, "How come I didn't know you had a friend named Li Nuo?"
Su Chen's heart skipped a beat, but she remained outwardly calm.
"There are a lot of things you don't know! Like, after being married for so long, do you even know if I'm a man or a woman?"
"Hmm...it could also be a man?" Song Ming chuckled.
"Ah! Who knows, I might be a cross-dresser. You don't even know that, yet you think you know me." Su Chen glanced at the villain with feigned disdain.
"Well... I'll have to check it out." Song Ming's lips curled up.
The handsome man's smile was originally a pleasing sight, but now, Su Chen felt goosebumps all over her body at that smile.
What is the villain up to? Could it be...?
Thinking of this, Su Chen quietly moved to the side.
Although they're practically husband and wife now! And although the villainous boss is handsome and has a great physique!
However! Su Chen still couldn't bring herself to go to Wushan with him.
