Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, starting with the strategy of 95 flowers to counterattack

Chapter 173 Li Yitong's Unconventional Video Call
Zhou Ye took the cup of disastrous milk tea and suddenly noticed a sticky note on the bottom of the cup with a crooked smiley face drawn on it.

She turned her face away, but Tian Xiwei still saw the corners of her mouth turn up slightly.

"How did you get away?" Tian Xi asked, sipping her milk tea.

Gu Yang weakly made a gesture: "I promise to take a photo with the last fifty people."

"But there were more and more people! Finally, I took advantage of their inattention and rushed out..."

He pointed to his tattered clothes, "This is the price..."

The carriage suddenly became quiet.

The three of them looked at each other's disheveled appearance, and before anyone knew who had started laughing, it quickly turned into uncontrollable laughter.

Gu Yang laughed until his mouth hurt, Zhou Ye laughed until tears streamed down his face, and Tian Xiwei laughed so hard she fell onto Zhou Ye's shoulder.

"Hey," after laughing enough, Tian Xiwei suddenly nudged Zhou Ye, "You promised me hotpot..."

Zhou Ye glanced at her and said, "Add another serving of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes."

"make a deal!"

Gu Yang looked at them through the rearview mirror, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.

Or, should we discuss it with them later?
Shall we sleep together tonight?
It’s not impossible…

Gu Yang fell into deep thought...

……

Back at the hotel, the three parted ways and went to their respective rooms.

Gu Yang slumped onto the sofa in his hotel suite and asked a waiter to bring him an ice pack, which he then placed on his swollen lips.

"Ding Dong"

My phone vibrated; I received a message from Li Yitong on WeChat.

"Is it convenient to chat?"

Gu Yang immediately sent a video chat request.

Li Yitong quickly agreed, and a bright and beautiful face appeared in the video.

"Oh, Director Gu, why are you alone in your room?" Li Yitong's voice was languidly sweet.

She was wearing a burgundy silk slip dress with a very low V-neck, revealing her delicate collarbone and a large expanse of snow-white skin.

Her hair was casually tied up, with a few stray strands hanging down her neck, gleaming softly under the warm yellow bedside lamp.

Gu Yang was about to speak when he gasped in pain from his sausage-like lips.

"puff--"

Li Yitong suddenly burst out laughing, nearly knocking over her wine glass. "My God, what a mouth you have!"

"Hahaha……"

"Is what's trending on social media true?"

Gu Yang narrowed his eyes: "What trending topic?"

"#Gu Yang takes two beauties on a night trip to Sanya#" Li Yitong laughed uncontrollably, "#Tian Xiwei carries Zhou Ye away#, and..."

She deliberately dragged out the syllables, "#Gu Yang's lips turned into sausage lips from the spiciness#~"

Gu Yang grabbed his tablet; they occupied three of the top five spots on the trending topics list.

The most outrageous thing is that some fans actually turned a photo of his swollen lips into a meme...

Gu Yang's vision went black...

……

"So you're here to laugh at me?"

"Yeah...hahaha...your mouth...hahahaha!"

"Li Yitong," Gu Yang suddenly said seriously, "those tricks Xiaotian used today, you taught them, didn't you?"

The woman in the video blinked: "What trick? I don't know~"

"Surfing competition? Spicy food challenge?"

Gu Yang sneered, "With Tian Xiwei's straightforward nature, how could she possibly think of so many complicated schemes?"

Li Yitong took a sip of red wine, her lips glistening with moisture: "Oh, I was just offering a casual suggestion..."

She suddenly leaned closer to the camera, the neckline of her pajamas slipping slightly with the movement. "What's wrong? Not having fun?"

Gu Yang's Adam's apple bobbed: "You just wait, see how I deal with you next time we meet."

"How should we clean it up?" Li Yitong tilted her head, tapping her chin lightly with her fingertip. "Like what happened in the bathroom at the wrap party last time..."

She suddenly lowered her voice, "Just like in the hospital..."

Gu Yang's breathing became noticeably heavier.

He loosened his collar, his voice hoarse: "Li Yitong, did you do this on purpose?"

The woman in the video was laughing like a cat that had just stolen some fish.

She slowly lay down on the bed, her silk pajamas sliding down her curves to reveal her long, slender legs.

"I've been practicing yoga lately..."

She deliberately stretched, saying, "My flexibility is even better than before!"

! ! ! ! !

Just as Gu Yang was about to speak, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Tian Xiwei's voice came through the door: "Gu Yang! I bought you some ointment!"

In the video, Li Yitong immediately made a "shh" gesture, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

She deliberately pulled down the straps of her pajamas, her red lips slightly parted: "Are you going to hang up, darling, or..."

Gu Yang glared at her through gritted teeth: "You just wait."

After saying that, he quickly hung up the video call and put the ice pack back on his mouth.

When the door opened, Tian Xiwei was holding a tube of ointment, her eyes sparkling.

"This is amazing! Wait, why is your face so red?"

"It's spicy." Gu Yang took the ointment without changing his expression. "Thank you."

Tian Xi glanced suspiciously at his burning ears, then at the phone lit up on the bed, and suddenly realized, "Oh~ I get it!" She skipped away, "I won't bother you while you're 'cooling down'!"

? ? ? ? ?

You understand? What do you understand?

The moment the door closed, Gu Yang's phone lit up again.

Li Yitong sent a voice message, and when I opened it, I heard her whimpering voice: "Next time, we can do something different during our video call..."

Gu Yang tossed his phone aside and lay back on the bed.

He stared at the ceiling, realizing that it wasn't just his mouth that was swollen...

……

next room
Zhou Ye had just finished applying a face mask when her phone screen lit up with a video call invitation from Meng Ziyi.

She pressed the answer button, and Meng Ziyi's exquisite face immediately appeared on the screen, with the background being a suite in a high-end hotel.

"I heard you were carried away by someone today?" Meng Ziyi asked excitedly, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "The photos that went viral were quite beautiful."

Zhou Ye gave a soft hum and propped her phone up on the dressing table.

She slowly applied hand cream, deliberately speaking in a casual tone, "Tian Xiwei is quite strong."

Meng Ziyi raised an eyebrow: "So, are we still going to buy her milk tea as planned tomorrow? The double sugar kind?"

Zhou Ye stared at her slightly reddened ear tips in the mirror, hesitated for a few seconds, and said, "Buy it. She helped me today after all..."

"You should always thank them..."

Her voice trailed off, "And another dessert, please."

Meng Ziyi: “…”

"Great! I'm relieved!"

After hanging up the video call, Meng Ziyi immediately dialed another number.

"Hey?"

Gu Yang's hoarse voice came through the background, which was the hotel bathroom.

"I heard your lips are swollen like sausages?" Meng Ziyi leaned against the headboard, her fingertips twirling the ends of her hair. "Those two little brats are so insensible..."

"They have no sense of compassion at all..."

Gu Yang turned off the shower and casually grabbed a bath towel to wrap around his waist.

Water droplets slid down his muscular abs, appearing and disappearing in the phone camera lens.

“Sister Meng…” he sighed, “I’m very angry right now.”

Meng Ziyi's red lips curved slightly, and she deliberately pulled down the neckline of her pajamas: "I can tell..."

Her gaze swept over Gu Yang. "Do you need your sister to help you cool down?"

Gu Yang's Adam's apple bobbed.

He stared at Meng Ziyi's barely concealed curves in the video, finding her incredibly beautiful!
"real???"

"Hmm!" Meng Ziyi chuckled and adjusted the camera angle. "Then why don't you take a look at my legs first..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was a knock on Gu Yang's door.

Tian Xiwei's energetic voice came through the door again: "Gu Yang! Are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry again..."

"Let's go eat instant noodles together..."

Meng Ziyi laughed heartily on the other end of the video call: "Looks like you'll have to deal with your own 'anger'~"

She blew a kiss and said, "Goodnight, my little brother!"

Gu Yang stared at the blacked-out screen, then looked at his obvious reaction under the towel, gritted his teeth, grabbed an ice pack, and pressed it to his mouth.

Xiaotian, are you a glutton? How many meals do you eat a day?

I just came back from the night market.

And he was hungry too!!!

Tian Xiwei continued knocking on the door from outside: "Gu Yang? Are you alright?"

"Want to go get something to eat?"

"I'm not eating!" Gu Yang scratched his hair in frustration. "I'm fine, I'm just...doing squats!"

"Oh," Tian Xiwei's voice was tinged with doubt, "Then... will you continue?"

Gu Yang buried his face in the towel and let out a painful groan.

When will this damned journey of the three mute characters ever end?
