Movie variety show soul travels between two worlds to become a rich man

Chapter 637 I'm really doing this for your own good!

The sunlight, like a sharp knife, pierced through the gap in the curtains and went straight into Yue Qianling's eyelids.

She let out a weak groan and instinctively raised her hand to cover herself, only to find that this simple action made her entire right arm feel as if it were being stabbed by thousands of needles at the same time.

The pain started in my temples and spread like a drill inside my skull, reaching every inch of my skin.

"Uh..." Yue Qianling curled up on the messy silk sheets, her long hair spreading out like a black waterfall, with a few strands sticking to her sweaty forehead and cheeks.

She slowly opened her eyes, her eyelashes trembling like wounded butterfly wings, her dark pupils contracting in the bright light, and an unnatural redness tinged the corners of her eyes. Her delicate features were slightly distorted by pain, yet they could not conceal her breathtaking beauty.

The room looked like it had been swept by a hurricane—one high heel was on the bedside table, the other hanging on the lamp, clothes were piled up on the floor in wrinkles, covered with suspicious, glaring stains, and underwear shimmered blindingly in the sunlight.

Pale-faced Yue Qianling tried to sit up, but a violent wave of dizziness made her fall back onto the pillow. Her body ached terribly, as if she had been hit and run over repeatedly by a car.

Where am I?
Yue Qianling struggled to open her heavy eyelids, the sound escaping her throat hoarse as if it had been rubbed with sandpaper. She subconsciously raised her hand, but the movement pulled at all the aching muscles in her body.

"Hiss—" She gasped, her delicate brows furrowing as she surveyed the unfamiliar room. Sky-blue silk sheets, minimalist Scandinavian furniture, and two bowls on the bedside table. This wasn't her apartment, nor any place she knew.

"What's wrong with me?" she murmured, a hint of fear in her voice. Her temples throbbed, as if someone were tapping them with a small hammer. She raised her hand to pound her forehead, trying to relieve the nagging headache, but froze the moment she moved—

A sharp, indescribable pain shot through her, instantly changing her expression. Yue Qianling's hands trembled as she threw back the covers, and what she saw made her fingers recoil as if burned.

"boom--"

Something seemed to explode in her mind. Yue Qianling bit her lower lip tightly, her long eyelashes trembling violently. Although her memories of last night were fragmented, the sensations in her body and the evidence before her were enough to explain everything.

The police station... Fu Xiaojun's brother-in-law...

Fragmented images flashed through her mind. She remembered Gao Dongxu's tall figure, his sharply defined handsome face when he looked down at her, her burning cheeks, and her uncontrollable behavior.

"Oh my god." Yue Qianling buried her face in her palms, hot tears seeping through her fingers. She wasn't some naive and clueless girl, but this bewildering experience was something she couldn't accept.

What alarmed her even more was that, besides shame and panic, there was also a strange, inexplicable flutter in her heart.

Fu Xiaojun's brother-in-law, whom she had only met twice, why did he stir up such strange feelings in her heart?

At this moment, Yue Qianling's mind was filled with those blurry yet intense fragments of memory.

This realization made her even more panicked. You see, before, her heart was set on the aloof and outstanding Gu Xun.

But now, as memories of Gu Xun resurface, she is surprised to find that those heart-fluttering moments that once kept her up at night have become completely unmoved, even distant and blurry.

“Crack—”

The door suddenly opened, startling Yue Qianling. She frantically clutched the edge of the blanket, only her head peeking out, staring intently at Gao Dongxu as he entered. "You're awake—"

Gao Dongxu smiled and walked to the bedside, looking at Yue Qianling, whose pretty face was flushed, whose eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and who was staring at him intently.

"You—I—"

Yue Qianling's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of her chest. She should be angry, she should question this man who had taken advantage of her, but deep down, a corner of her heart was secretly anticipating something.

Seeing Yue Qianling's reaction, Gao Dongxu breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't try to kill herself, nor did she scream or cry. All she felt was helplessness and shyness. It seemed that the two bowls of water last night really worked.

"Don't get agitated, let me explain slowly—" Gao Dongxu sat down on the edge of the bed, startling Yue Qianling, who quickly shifted her body, clutching the blanket tightly, her pretty face flushed, and she said in a trembling voice, "You, you don't come any closer—"

Gao Dongxu chuckled, looking at Yue Qianling who resembled an ostrich burying its head in the sand, and said with a smile, "Last night at the police station, you and Xiaojun's girlfriend suddenly became confused and acted strangely. It turns out that those four 'mud brothers' had drugged the drinks they gave you..."

"You beast—" Yue Qianling immediately cursed angrily.

“Yes, they are indeed some beasts who haven’t fully evolved. But don’t worry, they have been expelled from school and ordered to leave the country within 48 hours. They have been blacklisted and will never be allowed to enter the country again,” Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

"They got off too easily, they should be in jail—" Yue Qianling said through gritted teeth, her face full of anger, while a wave of fear washed over her. What if those black devils had succeeded last night...? She shook her head, afraid to think about it further, because just thinking about it sent chills down her spine.

"And then—"

"Later, I picked you up and prepared to take you to the hospital. However, on the way, I consulted a friend who is a doctor. He told me that even if I took you to the hospital, there was no good way to treat you except for gastric lavage.

"Gastric lavage is an extremely painful procedure, and even if you have it done, you won't fully recover. The best solution is for me to help you..." Gao Dongxu explained shamelessly.

"You—" Yue Qianling's pretty face turned bright red. She glared at Gao Dongxu, who was clearly taking advantage of her vulnerability but spoke so righteously and shamelessly, as if he didn't need to thank her. She was so angry that she almost laughed.

"Shameless—taking advantage of someone's misfortune!"

“Okay, you’re not wrong to think that way. But after all, I saved you and prevented you from being embarrassed in front of countless people. Besides, I’m willing to take responsibility for you,” Gao Dongxu said with a smile.

Originally, Yue Qianling was both angry and ashamed listening to Gao Dongxu's sophistry. When Gao Dongxu said he was willing to take responsibility, her beautiful eyes widened, she stared at Gao Dongxu, her heart raced, and she even felt a sense of joy against her will. She subconsciously asked in a trembling voice, "What did you say?"

"I said I'm willing to take responsibility for you. After all, I'm your first man. I wouldn't dare to take advantage of you or make things worse. Since it's happened, I can only face it," Gao Dongxu said gently with a smile.

"You...you...but aren't you Fu Xiaojun's brother-in-law?" Yue Qianling, who had been feeling touched and happy, suddenly turned pale and looked at Gao Dongxu with complicated emotions, saying in a trembling voice.

"Yeah, but I'm not married to his sister, and we're in a long-distance relationship, so that doesn't stop us from being together," Gao Dongxu said shamelessly.

"You're shameless—you want me to be a liar?" Yue Qianling was genuinely amused by this.
