After Saving the White Moonlight, the Black Moonlight Went Crazy - Chapter 22.2

Chapter 22.2: Three-in-One Premium Chapter

Lu Shutian’s voice wasn’t quiet, and Jian Liyun heard it.

“You’re in the hospital?! Which hospital? What’s the room number?”

Yan Sui’s soft voice tried to comfort her. “I’m really fine… I might have just had too much to drink yesterday, and my head hurt badly just now, so I came to the hospital to get checked out.”

“Don’t lie to me,” Jian Liyun’s voice was quick. “Where are you right now? If you don’t tell me, I’ll ask Director Kong.”

Helpless, Yan Sui could only give her the address.

But Lu Shutian was still there. After hanging up the phone, Yan Sui was communicating with the doctor on the surface, but in reality, she was secretly observing Lu Shutian.

Since the doctor came in, Lu Shutian had been standing behind the doctor. She always kept a certain distance from Yan Sui and kept her eyes down. Their gazes never met.

“Young lady, you’ve experienced a vasovagal syncope brought on by emotional distress and anxiety. In the future, you need to pay more attention to your health, have a regular schedule, and keep your emotions stable. If you encounter this situation again, the first thing you should do is sit or lie down to alleviate it.”

Yan Sui nodded. “I understand. Thank you, Doctor.”

“You can leave on your own after this saline solution is finished.”

After the doctor finished his instructions, he left.

Lu Shutian didn’t say anything and followed the doctor out.

Yan Sui lay back down on the hospital bed, and a huge wave of exhaustion finally washed over her. She said weakly in her mind.

“System.”

“Waaah, I’m here, Host. You scared me so much just now. I was just about to borrow points from my superior to come back and help you, but then the female lead took you to the hospital.”

Yan Sui closed her eyes. “You guys need to check out the female lead again. Something’s really wrong with her. She was practically revealing her cards with what happened tonight.”

“Okay. When I was borrowing points from my superior, I mentioned this to it, and it has already sent another system to investigate. Host, let’s avoid the female lead from now on. She’s really too terrifying.”

Yan Sui didn’t answer.

After this incident, she could feel that the female lead was indeed a little obsessed with her—

However, it wasn’t an obsession with Yan Sui herself, but an obsession with why she chose to save the supporting female lead, Jian Liyun, instead of the female lead, Lu Shutian.

This showed that the female lead most likely already knew the truth about this world.

It was even more likely that the truth of this world wasn’t as beautiful as the original novel described it—

But for Yan Sui, none of that mattered anymore.

Because Lu Shutian was truly too malicious. The “bad” side she showed tonight not only terrified Yan Sui, but also made Yan Sui want to stay far away from her.

Yan Sui thought that as long as she could protect Jian Liyun, that would be enough.

“System, please wake me up when the IV drip is finished. I’m going to sleep for a bit.”

“Okay, Host.”

…

Yan Sui’s sleep was not peaceful. She frowned slightly, and her eyelashes trembled unconsciously.

Until she smelled a faint jasmine scent.

Someone touched her face.

Yan Sui opened her eyes and saw Jian Liyun’s flawless face.

Jian Liyun’s eyes were filled with worry. “How did you end up like this after not seeing you for a little while? I’ll stay with you here tonight.”

Yan Sui wanted to say no, that the IV drip was almost finished and she would be discharged soon anyway.

Yan Sui also wanted to say that she was so glad Jian Liyun was okay.

But she couldn’t say anything. She just stared blankly at Jian Liyun, and tears unknowingly filled her eyes.

Jian Liyun is alive.

Although Yan Sui had already known this, when Jian Liyun was standing right in front of her, Yan Sui could feel her heart finally beating strongly again.

She tried to sit up, and when Jian Liyun noticed, she immediately held Yan Sui’s waist to help her sit up. As her posture changed, Yan Sui’s tears fell onto Jian Liyun’s white trench coat.

Yan Sui sniffled, feeling a little embarrassed. She simply buried her whole face in Jian Liyun’s embrace, and with the hand that didn’t have the IV drip, she hugged Jian Liyun’s waist.

“Liyun,” Yan Sui whispered.

Jian Liyun had many questions in her heart, but at this moment, she knew what she should be doing.

She slowly patted Yan Sui’s back, holding her in her arms like a protector.

“I’m here, Sui Sui.”

No one had ever responded to Yan Sui so gently.

Compared to gentle comfort, Yan Sui was more accustomed to firm commands.

But being used to something didn’t mean she liked it.

Yan Sui finally couldn’t hold back her sobs. “Liyun, I…”

“Mm,” Jian Liyun was very patient. “I’m listening. Take your time, there’s no rush.”

Tears fell like a broken string of pearls. Yan Sui didn’t know why she felt so sad and wronged.

Yan Sui couldn’t say a single complete sentence right now. She could only cry in Jian Liyun’s arms, her thin back trembling with her sobs, looking incredibly pitiful.

The woman’s embrace was still so gentle and warm, but her eyes instantly became sharp.

When Jian Liyun had rushed to the hospital, she had seen Lu Shutian standing outside the hospital room.

Lu Shutian had her arms crossed and was leaning against the wall. When she saw Jian Liyun arrive, she didn’t do anything, continuing to stand outside the room like a statue.

She looked very calm, if you ignored her reddened lower eyelids.

Jian Liyun slowed her pace. Seeing that Lu Shutian had no intention of blocking her, she walked into the hospital room.

But now, Lu Shutian, who had been standing outside the hospital room, was standing at the door.

She was gripping the doorframe tightly with her right hand, her whole body like a leopard ready to pounce, and her eyes were like those of a demon.

Her once bright and beautiful apricot-shaped eyes were now crimson, with red veins crawling all over the whites. Lu Shutian was staring intently at the hand Jian Liyun had around Yan Sui’s waist. Seeing that the other person had no intention of letting go, she looked into Jian Liyun’s eyes.

I really want to kill her.

This thought was swirling madly in Lu Shutian’s mind. Her eyes were so bloodshot they looked like they were about to bleed.

But no, if I do that, Jie will be sad.

I don’t want Yan Sui to be sad.

Lu Shutian tried her best to suppress those bad thoughts, and her expression became a little distorted.

Yan Sui had her back to Lu Shutian, but Jian Liyun, who was holding Yan Sui, made eye contact with Lu Shutian at this moment.

Seeming to feel Lu Shutian’s gaze, which was almost solid, Yan Sui unconsciously shrank into Jian Liyun’s arms.

Jian Liyun held her even tighter.

She comforted her softly. “Cry. You’ll feel better after you cry it all out.”

Jian Liyun’s voice was so gentle it could melt hearts, but her eyes were extremely sharp. She stared back at Lu Shutian without backing down, her eyes warning the other person not to come closer.

Yan Sui couldn’t cry when she was at her own home, but now in Jian Liyun’s arms, she couldn’t stop crying.

The contrast between the two situations made Lu Shutian feel like half of her was in an ice field and the other half was in a sea of fire. The cold and heat were so intense that they were driving her crazy—

Or maybe, she was already crazy.

“She’s mine,”

Lu Shutian mouthed these words to Jian Liyun.

Jian Liyun didn’t respond. One could even say she disdained to respond.

By the time Yan Sui had calmed down, Lu Shutian had been gone for a long time.

She pushed Jian Liyun away, keeping her head down, her cheeks flushed, unsure if it was from crying too much or from embarrassment.

“Host, the saline solution is finished. You need to take out the needle.”

Just as Yan Sui was about to press the call button on the bed, another hand pressed it faster than she could.

“Is this the only bottle?” Jian Liyun asked.

“Mm,” Yan Sui’s voice was thick with a nasal tone. “I can leave after this bottle is done.”

The nurse quickly came and removed the needle. Yan Sui stood up slowly, still feeling a little unsteady on her feet.

“Don’t move,” Jian Liyun stopped her, then knelt in front of her. “I’ll carry you on my back.”

Yan Sui rejected the idea without thinking. “No need. I can walk myself.”

Are you kidding me? Jian Liyun had several vials of bl00d drawn for her check-up during the day, then went to help the male lead with his script, and now she had rushed to the hospital to find Yan Sui. It was a miracle that Jian Liyun hadn’t fainted from exhaustion yet.

Let alone carrying Yan Sui on her back.

Jian Liyun didn’t stand up. “Sui Sui, be good.”

Yan Sui pursed her lips, muttering, “I’m so old, and I’m still having someone carry me on their back. It’s too…”

Despite saying that, Yan Sui still patted Jian Liyun’s back. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Liyun.”

Jian Liyun carried Yan Sui on her back, and then she weighed the person on her back. “Do you have to manage your weight as an artist? You’re so light.”

Yan Sui answered with a different question. “Liyun, your hair smells good today, too.”

Jian Liyun laughed. “Mm. Speaking of which, I still haven’t returned the hair tie you lent me.”

It’s just a hair tie. You can have it if you like it.

Before Yan Sui could say what was on her mind, Jian Liyun spoke first. “But, since I’m carrying you home, consider it my payment?”

Yan Sui was very generous. “Of course, that’s fine. I have a lot more at home. You can have as many as you want!”

Seeing that Yan Sui finally had some strength in her voice, Jian Liyun was relieved.

“I’m not a greedy person,” Jian Liyun said with a smile. “This is enough for now.”

The two of them took a car back home. After getting out of the car, Jian Liyun still wanted to carry Yan Sui on her back, but Yan Sui, with a flushed face, pushed her away.

“It’s only a few steps. I’ll walk myself.”

Jian Liyun didn’t insist this time. She took Yan Sui’s hand. “Okay, then.”

Jian Liyun’s hand was still as cold as ever.

But it made Yan Sui feel at ease, and she unconsciously tightened her grip.

All the terrifying things Lu Shutian had said and the horrible things that had almost happened drifted further and further away from Yan Sui. They floated into the air and finally disappeared.

Ding.

The elevator doors opened, and the two of them entered the confined space.

Jian Liyun pressed the button for their floor, then heard the person next to her fidgeting.

“Liyun…”

“What is it?” Jian Liyun asked softly.

“I want to…” Yan Sui hesitated.

“What do you want?”

Jian Liyun’s voice was incredibly gentle, and Yan Sui said honestly, “I want to hug you.”

I want to confirm one more time that you’re still alive and well.

I can’t bear the pain of reliving that again.

But after saying that, Yan Sui took a step back. She lowered her head, and a blush appeared on her pale cheeks. “I’m sorry, just pretend I didn’t say any…”

Before she could finish, she was already in a warm embrace.

Jian Liyun’s voice was extremely soft. “Sui Sui, don’t be afraid. It’s all in the past.”

The camera at the top of the elevator recorded everything.

Meanwhile, somewhere else.

Lu Shutian sat on an expensive leather chair, expressionlessly staring at the two people embracing each other on the screen.

“Jie is just being bewitched by this b1tch,” she laughed. “It’s my fault. I wanted to prove myself too much, and I scared Jie. But it’s okay if I can’t kill her.”

I have many other ways to make you fall into the mud and wish you were dead.

A slender, well-defined finger gently touched the cold screen. Lu Shutian stroked Yan Sui’s back on the screen.

“Don’t cry, Jie.”

She touched her own chest. “When you cry, my heart hurts, too. How strange.”

This shared pain seemed to have been a bond for a long time.

Lu Shutian inexplicably felt this way, but she had only known Yan Sui for a short time. This idea was simply absurd.

…Was it really absurd?

And on Yan Sui’s side, after the elevator reached the correct floor, she reluctantly let go of Jian Liyun.

Jian Liyun also noticed her disappointment. “You can hug me as much as you want when we get home.”

Yan Sui’s eyes lit up. “Really?”

At this moment, Jian Liyun didn’t look like the cold beauty she usually was. She smiled, her eyes crinkling. “Really. If I’m lying, I’m a puppy.”

Yan Sui couldn’t help but smile. “Okay.”

After the two of them quickly washed up, they were ready to rest.

Last time, Yan Sui had been drunk, which was why she slept in Jian Liyun’s room. This time, she was perfectly sober.

But the events of the evening were still vivid in her mind. No matter how much Yan Sui tried to ignore them, as long as Jian Liyun was out of her sight, the fear would quickly return.

Yan Sui changed into the beige pajamas Jian Liyun had prepared for her and timidly grabbed the corner of the other person’s clothes. “Liyun…”

Jian Liyun’s heart softened completely, and she had no intention of teasing her. “I get scared sleeping alone at night. Will you sleep with me?”

Jian Liyun of course knew that something bad had happened between Yan Sui and Lu Shutian today, but Yan Sui’s condition was too poor for her to ask too many questions.

Letting the other person rest was the top priority.

Yan Sui was relieved. “Okay.”

“The supporting female lead is a good person,” she sighed to the system in her mind. “She’s a person who likes to be alone, but she probably saw how miserable I was and reluctantly let me sleep with her.”

“Host…”

The system hesitated to speak.

Actually, the system wanted to say that it wasn’t reluctant at all.

“What is it, system?”

“The supporting female lead would probably faint from anger if she knew you called her a good person.”

Yan Sui was dissatisfied. “But she really is very good, except when it comes to the male lead. But no one’s perfect. If she loves the male lead so much that she can’t leave him, there’s nothing I can do. I’m really tired today. I’ll have a good talk with her about the male lead tomorrow.”

Jian Liyun also pulled back the covers at this moment. She patted the bed. “Sui Sui, come on up.”

Yan Sui happily got into bed. She and Jian Liyun lay in bed, and the warm light from the bedside lamp softened Jian Liyun’s once cold features.

Yan Sui just stared at the other person’s face without moving.

Beautiful, and full of life.

Even though Yan Sui’s behavior was far beyond a normal social distance and could even be considered rude, Jian Liyun didn’t feel uncomfortable. She even moved closer and blinked.

“Do I look good?”

Jian Liyun knew she looked good, but she just wanted to ask the question anyway.

Yan Sui nodded slightly. Her head was resting on the soft, fluffy pillow, and her whole body felt weightless.

“Of course you look good, Liyun is the most beautiful person in the world—”

“But I’m the one who’s declaring it, hehe.”

Yan Sui smiled foolishly, then looked at Jian Liyun deeply and said softly, “Good night.”

With the person she cared about by her side, Yan Sui quickly felt sleepy.

Jian Liyun quietly got up at some point and turned off the lamp. She was also a little tired after a long day.

But she hadn’t fallen asleep yet when she felt the person next to her shudder, then start to gasp for breath.

Seeming to realize that there was someone sleeping next to her, Yan Sui tried her best to suppress her gasps.

She had been about to fall asleep, but for some reason, she was suddenly startled awake. Her heart started beating faster, so fast that her body couldn’t handle it.

Yan Sui suppressed the pain caused by the stress reaction. She was just about to get up and go to the living room to calm down by herself when she heard Jian Liyun’s worried voice.

“Sui Sui?”

Yan Sui spoke and found that her voice was terribly hoarse. “It’s nothing. I’m just a little thirsty.”

In the darkness, Jian Liyun touched her face.

Yan Sui’s cheeks were very soft and slightly warm.

That’s good, she hasn’t cried yet.

Jian Liyun was relieved. She pulled back the covers. “I’ll go get some water. Wait for me.”

When Jian Liyun came back with a cup of water, she turned on the bedroom light and saw Yan Sui curled up in bed, clutching her chest.

After helping Yan Sui drink some warm water, Jian Liyun was no longer sleepy. “Tomorrow, no, after you’ve had a day to rest. The day after tomorrow, I’m taking you for a full physical.”

Yan Sui shook her head. “A heart disease is difficult to cure.”

Jian Liyun fell silent.

She was very curious about Yan Sui’s past, but she also didn’t want to expose the other person’s most painful wound because of it. That would be like hurting Yan Sui all over again.

“I don’t know what you went through at Lu Shutian’s place today, and I don’t know… maybe there’s something from your past that’s making you feel this way, but Sui Sui,” Jian Liyun took the water cup from Yan Sui and placed it on the nightstand, then gently hugged the other person. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

There was a time when Yan Sui felt so much pain she wanted to die but couldn’t. No one was there to catch her pain, and no one understood her suffering.

Everyone thought that a genius like her shouldn’t feel sad over trivial things. She had more important things to do.

But whether something is important or not should never be judged solely by worldly rules.

Even someone as strong as Yan Sui could be sad, could cry, and could break down.

And now, finally, there was someone who was gentle and patient…

To catch the falling Yan Sui.

In her embrace, Yan Sui’s voice was muffled.

“Liyun, do you want to hear a story?”
