After Saving the White Moonlight, the Black Moonlight Went Crazy - Chapter 14

Chapter 14: The Female Lead is Getting a Little Unhinged

◎This isn’t your home address, is it?◎

Before Yan Sui could answer, Director Kong answered for her.

“Of course she can. This topic is very new and fresh. As long as the love and hate stories of the ten non-celebrities are compelling and the five guests are eloquent, it’s hard for it not to be a hit. Although little Jian has always performed well in her film and TV work, she hasn’t participated in a variety show recording yet.”

Since Director Kong had already said that, Yan Sui was in a difficult position. She still held on to her last bit of stubbornness. “This is indeed a great opportunity. But after I get back, I have to re-check Liyun’s work schedule just in case there’s a time conflict…”

“There won’t be, there won’t be,” Lu Shutian shook her index finger. “This kind of variety show is different from other reality shows. Each recording session doesn’t need a whole day, just a few hours. And the whole season won’t be too long. The guests can finish recording it by coming three or four times.”

“Given Senior Jian’s status, if she’s on a film set at the time, it shouldn’t be difficult for the production crew to make some time for her to come and record the show for one day, right?”

Lu Shutian’s series of words left Yan Sui completely unable to fight back.

Director Kong had already made the decision for Yan Sui. “Okay, then it’s settled. If this show gets off the ground, our little Jian will definitely participate.”

Everyone else also started recommending their own people at this time.

Yan Sui couldn’t smile. She knew that if she smiled, she wouldn’t be able to stop herself from giving a wry smile.

What is the female lead’s game plan here?

She was still engaging in feigned civility with these people, and she hadn’t forgotten to communicate with the system in her mind.

“System, I think this female lead is very strange. She’s definitely either reborn or has awakened.”

“But Host, we really didn’t detect any abnormalities with the female lead before. Forget it, if the supporting female lead has to participate in this variety show, then so be it. At least the male lead isn’t involved, so it should be fine.”

“Come, come, everyone, let’s have a drink together.” Director Kong, who was having a great time, raised her wine glass, signaling for everyone to join in.

Yan Sui also stood up and responded to the system. “Everything the female lead is doing now seems harmless to the supporting female lead, and it might even help her career. What exactly is the female lead’s intention?”

Not being able to see a person’s intention is very dangerous.

The system also couldn’t answer.

Yan Sui clinked glasses with everyone and then drank it all down. But before she could put down her glass, another soft, boneless hand covered the back of her hand.

Although Lu Shutian looked like a sweet-faced beauty, she not only had unexpectedly long legs, but her fingers were also long and slender with distinct joints.

She leaned intimately against Yan Sui’s left shoulder, and her cheek rubbed against Yan Sui’s. Before Yan Sui could react, she took the wine glass from her hand.

“Jie, have another drink with me.”

It seems she’s not even pretending anymore; she’s just forcing me to drink.

Although she had on light makeup, Yan Sui’s cheeks had already turned a faint pink. She knew she wouldn’t last much longer before getting drunk.

Meanwhile, Director Kong, who was even more enthusiastic than Yan Sui herself, said, “Come on, Xiao Yan, have a drink with Miss Lu.”

Lu Shutian continued to act spoiled, but her right hand had silently wrapped around Yan Sui’s waist.

The table blocked most of their upper bodies from view. The others didn’t know that Lu Shutian was making such a move on Yan Sui.

And Director Kong, the only one who could see, was completely focused on the conversation at the table and wouldn’t have noticed anything amiss with the people next to her.

Yan Sui still seemed to be keeping her composure. She stared at the wine glass that had been taken from her. “Alright, Miss Lu.”

Lu Shutian had one arm around Yan Sui’s waist, and her other hand, holding the wine glass, reached out to Director Kong. “Could you please help me pour some wine, Director Kong?”

Yan Sui was very unaccustomed to being touched so intimately.

Even in her original world, her incredibly clingy college roommate, Lili, would only link arms with her at most, and hug her when she got excited—

But she wouldn’t be held by the waist like this, unable to move.

“System,” Yan Sui said calmly in her mind as she watched Director Kong pour the wine into the glass. “Can you electrocute me?”

The system was shocked. “Host, what are you talking about?! I’m different from other systems; I don’t have a punishment mechanism. Please be careful with your words. I don’t want to get a complaint.”

Yan Sui’s breath caught. “No, that’s not what I mean. I’m afraid that Lu Shutian will get me drunk and try to get information out of me. If I get too drunk later, and your reminders don’t work, if possible, please knock me out with a shock.”

Originally, Yan Sui had planned to find an excuse to leave, but seeing how Lu Shutian was completely in her element at this party, she knew it would be difficult to leave early.

This Lu Shutian wouldn’t stop until she got her drunk.

“I’m sorry, Host, I really don’t have the electrocution function. At most, I can only communicate and remind you like this.”

Before the person and the system could finish their conversation, a new, full glass of wine was brought to Yan Sui’s lips.

Lu Shutian held the wine glass. Yan Sui wanted to hold it herself, but the other person showed no intention of letting go.

“I…”

Yan Sui had just said one word when the cold glass was pressed against her lower lip. Lu Shutian tilted her hand slightly, and the wine flowed into Yan Sui’s mouth.

Yan Sui had no choice but to drink it.

Fortunately, Lu Shutian only fed her less than a third of the glass before putting it down. She smiled broadly. “Jie, drink slowly. If you drink too fast and get drunk all at once, that wouldn’t be good.”

“She said all the nice things, even though she’s the one trying to get you drunk.”

The system’s voice sounded a little angry.

Yan Sui didn’t look any different from when she first arrived. She gave Lu Shutian a faint smile. “Some wines are meant to be sipped slowly to appreciate their quality.”

She hadn’t even finished this glass when Director Kong, with great foresight, refilled it.

Lu Shutian’s smile was sweet, and she seemed to be acting spoiled. “Jie, I don’t know much about wine. I just drink a lot of it if I think it tastes good, and I don’t drink it if it doesn’t.”

After saying that, Lu Shutian simply leaned her head on Yan Sui’s shoulder—

Of course, the hand that was wrapped around Yan Sui’s waist still hadn’t let go.

“Jie, do you know a lot about wine? Will you teach me how to appreciate it someday?”

Yan Sui secretly let out a breath.

Hold it in, Yan Sui, you have to hold it in. This is the female lead.

She can be reckless, but you can’t.

Yan Sui, who had prepared herself mentally, said word for word, “If there’s a chance, I’d be more than happy to.”

Lu Shutian stared at Yan Sui’s reddening ears, smiling to herself, and took a few sips of her own wine.

A strong gaze was also fixed on Yan Sui.

Yan Sui tilted her head slightly and found that it was Director Kong staring at her.

The meaning was clear: Lu Shutian is drinking. Why aren’t you continuing to drink with her?

Yan Sui had no choice but to pick up her glass and take a few sips.

Her mind was still relatively clear, so she gave the system one last command.

“System, if I get drunk later, just repeat one sentence in my mind.”

“Repeat what?”

“Lu Shutian is very scary. Yan Sui cannot speak recklessly.”

The system seemed to short-circuit for a moment before stuttering, “O-okay.”

In all its years of work, the system never thought it would have to act as a voice recorder.

Lu Shutian didn’t mention the word “wine” again, but every time she and Yan Sui had a brief conversation, she would naturally raise her glass and clink it with hers.

Yan Sui had no reason not to drink.

During this time, others also came to chat and clink glasses with Lu Shutian, and Lu Shutian also smiled and drank it all down.

“System,” Yan Sui felt her head starting to spin. “The female lead has clearly had more to drink than me, so why doesn’t she look drunk at all? Is she acting too?”

The light makeup on Yan Sui’s face could no longer hide her flushed cheeks. She felt like her whole body was on fire.

But thankfully, even though her mind was foggy, her facial expressions were perfectly managed, so she could still fool people for a while.

But Lu Shutian was different. She wasn’t faking it; she was genuinely not drunk. Not only could she find time to get Yan Sui drunk, but she could also chat and laugh with others.

“Host, the female lead doesn’t look drunk at all. She has a very high alcohol tolerance.”

Yan Sui blinked and then yawned.

The corners of her eyes were glistening with tears, and sleepiness was coming on fast.

Lu Shutian noticed it immediately.

She put down her wine glass and greeted everyone, getting ready to leave. “Everyone, I have another work engagement, so I’ll be leaving now. Please excuse me.”

Naturally, no one objected.

Lu Shutian also took the opportunity to say to Director Kong, “Jie looks a little tired too. I’ll have my driver give her a ride home.”

Director Kong nodded.

Yan Sui wanted to refuse. “I…”

Lu Shutian smiled and took her hand, leading her out of the room. “Jie treated me to a meal, so it’s nothing for me to give her a ride home.”

Leaving the noisy room, the cold wind brushed against her cheeks, and Yan Sui’s mind finally cleared up a little—

But she still wasn’t completely sober.

Lu Shutian held her hand and walked to the parking lot. Her voice was sweet and pleading. “Jie, can you really not take on another artist?”

“You are…”

You’re the female lead. I’m already trying to avoid you, so how could I possibly take you on as my artist?

The system let out a sharp beep.

“Host, don’t talk nonsense!”

“Lu Shutian is very scary. Yan Sui cannot speak recklessly!”

The system’s voice was frighteningly loud in Yan Sui’s mind. Yan Sui frowned and shook her head.

Lu Shutian also noticed this. She stopped walking and said softly, “Headache?”

I knew I shouldn’t have gotten her so drunk.

Yan Sui pursed her lips and didn’t speak. She just kept shaking her head.

Even the cold wind couldn’t sober her up. Yan Sui’s mind was completely muddled now and she couldn’t think.

The only thought left in her mind was:

Don’t talk to the female lead, Lu Shutian.

This situation continued until the two got into the car.

Lu Shutian said to the driver in the front seat, “Take her home first.” She then looked at Yan Sui, who was sitting with her in the back. “Jie, where do you live?”

Although she already knew, she still had to ask on the surface.

Yan Sui blinked. Just as she was about to continue to stay silent, the system reminded her, “Host, you can say this. You still need to go home.”

So Yan Sui gave the address.

The air in the car suddenly seemed to become much thinner. The driver in the front seat felt an inexplicable sense of suffocation and pressure.

Lu Shutian asked the driver to turn off the lights in the car, and it instantly became extremely dark.

Like a poisonous snake hidden in the forest at night, she silently coiled around her prey.

“Jie,” Lu Shutian pulled Yan Sui into her arms in a position of complete control, her warm breath hitting the other person’s sensitive earlobe. “This isn’t your home, is it?”

This feeling was very uncomfortable. Yan Sui endured it and said slowly, “This is where I’m going.”

She had promised Jian Liyun that she would go to her place tonight.

Lu Shutian was silent for a long time.

Finally, she slowly loosened her grip on the other person, and her right hand lightly pinched the back of the other person’s neck.

“Let’s go.”

Lu Shutian said to the driver with a blank expression.
