Huayu: We're asking you to act, and you're playing a superhuman?

"Ring ring! Ring ring!"

The incessant ringing of the cell phone was like an electric drill drilling into my temple, relentlessly stirring.

Despite the throbbing pain in her head, Liu Shishi reached for her phone, which had been ringing for who knows how many times.

Even when she was finally caught, she only squeezed a slit open above her left eye to check incoming call information and answer the phone.

"Hey, K-sister, what's wrong?"

"Shishi, where are you right now?"

"Hmm... I think I'm at a hotel?"

Liu Shishi answered groggily, her hangover making her forget what happened last night, and her physical weakness making her unwilling to get up and check.

Hearing that she was in a hotel, Cai Yinong felt much more at ease.

"It was alright at the hotel, but the paparazzi reported what happened last night, and now everyone online is saying that Mr. Liu is your rumored boyfriend. Those bastards..."

"Wait a minute, K-sister, what boyfriend?"

Liu Shishi was jolted awake by the keywords, and her mind became much clearer.

"Of course I know that's not what happened, it's just paparazzi making things up! But thankfully there were paparazzi last night, otherwise we wouldn't know how we would have gotten away..."

Cai Yinong's ramblings reached Liu Shishi's ears via mobile phone.

But she wasn't listening at all at that moment.

As Liu Shishi sat up from the sofa, the wool blanket slowly slid off, and she subconsciously began to check her surroundings.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, lush greenery stretched out, and morning light streamed through the glass onto the wooden floor. The entire interior was decorated and furnished in a modern style, making it seem nothing like the furnishings of a hotel suite.

Then, why was she sleeping on the sofa with only a blanket covering her?

"...The company will find a way to clear up the rumors for you. Just stay in the hotel and rest for the next couple of days."

Cai Yinong's concluding remarks reached my ears.

Just as Liu Shishi realized what was happening and was about to ask a question, there was no response from the other end of the phone.

Just as she was about to call back, footsteps and voices approached from afar.

Liu Shishi curled up, clutching her phone. Before she could even start to anxiously think about all sorts of things, the voice of the person who had just arrived echoed the traces in her memory.

"Yes, my demand is still to resolve the issue peacefully."

"Just negotiate according to the terms of the contract, and compensate me according to the terms, but I don't want to be taken advantage of."

"Okay, you go in and talk to them first, we'll contact you later... Sister Shi, you have a good alcohol tolerance! You were so drunk last night, but you're still awake so early today."

Wang Weili, wearing a blue wool bathrobe, held a phone in one hand and a bag of groceries in the other, and said with a mocking expression.

After removing his Indian makeup and beard, Wang Weili had medium-length black hair, a broad forehead, high eyebrows, a straight nose, and clear facial features, but his deep eyes made him look somewhat cold.

But it is precisely this sense of distance that makes Wang Weili even more popular, which is why Cai Yinong thinks he can become famous just because of his looks.

Seeing his attire, Liu Shishi paused for a few seconds before quickly looking down to check herself.

Thankfully, the clothes are the same as last night's, and there's nothing wrong with my body...

Huh? He actually left a beautiful woman like me in the living room without caring about me at all?

Liu Shishi's expression shifted rapidly from surprise to fear and then to anger, far exceeding her usual acting skills, leaving Wang Weili amazed.

Just as Liu Shishi's chest heaved and she stood up resolutely, Wang Weili interrupted her singing.

"Would you like some breakfast? I ordered two servings, but I didn't order douzhi (fermented mung bean juice), I don't know if you're used to it."

"I'm not going to drink soy milk!"

"Oh, then come along."

"I……"

Liu Shishi pointed, but Wang Weili ignored her and turned to enter the restaurant.

Although she still didn't understand what had happened, Liu Shishi was still angered by his dismissive attitude.

Even if you, Wang Weili, are favored by Sister K and have the opportunity to succeed Brother Hu as the new number one in Sugar Man, you still need to know how to respect your seniors!

"Hey, I'm talking to you..."

"If you want to eat, come and sit down; otherwise, get out."

Wang Weili sat in the chair, raised his hand and pointed to the door, showing no politeness whatsoever.

Liu Shishi stood there stunned, and it took her a long time to react: "Is this your home?"

"Um."

Wang Weili opened the food bag and started eating the shrimp dumplings by himself.

"Five ants!"

Wang Weili's sudden loud voice startled Liu Shishi: "What are you yelling about? And why am I here?"

"I was saying the shrimp dumplings were delicious. As for you, last night I was driving in the St. Regis Hotel's underground parking garage when you suddenly jumped out and lay on the hood. I told you to get down, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on coming home with me. I had no choice but to bring you back."

Wang Weili showed no awareness of controlling his calorie intake; after finishing one shrimp dumpling, he went to eat a second one.

As he spoke with such conviction, Liu Shishi's suspicious expression gradually became less trustworthy.

As her mind, which had been sluggish from trying to figure it out, began to reconcile the chaotic memories with the help of the language index, it slowly began to become clear. It seemed, perhaps, maybe, probably... that she really had fallen onto his car in the underground parking garage.

Liu Shishi pursed her lips guiltily, her eyes darting around, and quickly tried to cover it up: "What? I jumped on your car? I haven't even asked you how you ended up there!"

"Can't I go to the hotel?" Wang Weili asked back.

Liu Shishi was speechless: "Why did you dress up like that to go to the hotel..."

"It's normal for celebrities to disguise themselves when they're out and about, right?"

"You, me, this... never mind, let's eat first."

Unable to find a solution, Liu Shishi had no choice but to strategically change the subject.

Wang Weili glanced at her with amusement, but didn't continue.

After taking the breakfast out of the plastic box, Liu Shishi discovered that it was all Cantonese-style morning tea.

As she ate, she thought to herself that the dead man, Wang Weili, was still the same old deadbeat. He was so irresponsible even though they had just met, and he even went to that room to go over the script in the middle of filming...

Thinking back to last year when the "Xuan-Yuan Sword" crew started filming, Wang Weili and Naza were introduced to Cai Yinong by Hu Ge, which clearly indicated that they were to be given special attention and cultivation.

The first thing Wang Weili said to her was, "Sister Shi, we're playing a couple in this drama, do we need to rehearse beforehand?"

Because of that remark, she often gave Wang Weili a hard time during filming, resulting in repeated takes and ultimately affecting her own performance...

Damn! How come I'm the one who always gets scammed when I interact with him?

Liu Shishi, grumbling as she chewed on her radish cake, glared at Wang Weili's strange gaze and snapped, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen me eat before?"

"Um...do you usually like to eat without brushing your teeth?"

Wang Weili's backward leaning motion seemed to rob Liu Shishi of her ability to move, leaving her frozen in place.

"Ugh~"

Looking at Liu Shishi hugging the trash can, Wang Weili thought: There really are people who drink alcohol without vomiting, but feel nauseous because they didn't brush their teeth and ate something...

Just then, the phone on the table rang.

Hearing the familiar ringtone, Liu Shishi stopped vomiting and turned to look.

Wang Weili glanced at the caller ID and knew what kind of raging fury awaited him, but he still had to face what he had to face; he just needed to be kind to his ears.

Connect and turn on speakerphone.

The next second, a powerful Lion's Roar echoed throughout the restaurant.

"Wang Weili!! What do you think you're doing?! The company just made you famous, and you want to terminate your contract and even send a lawyer to handle it!!"
