Shocking! The actress was dragged to the regent's bedchamber every night.

Su Wuli turned her head and saw a woman in a red dress walking towards her.

Her makeup was exquisite, and her smile was just right.

Xu Weiwei.

A rising star in the past two years, she debuted two years later and has played the second female lead in several popular dramas.

I've seen him a few times at events before.

"Weiwei." Su Wuli smiled as well.

Xu Weiwei walked to her side and took her arm. "I saw you from afar just now and thought I had mistaken you for someone else."

She smiled and said, "You didn't go to that event last month, and I was telling people it was a pity I didn't get to see you. I'm so glad we met today."

Su Wuli remembered that she did not attend that event because she was filming that day.

"I had work that day and couldn't get away."

Xu Weiwei waved her hand, "I know, I heard about your drama, you really put in a lot of effort. By the way, I watched the live broadcast of your nomination last time, it was such a pity, you'll definitely be the one next time."

Su Wuli smiled and thanked her.

The two chatted for a few more minutes.

Xu Weiwei also took the initiative to introduce Su Wuli to several people, all of whom were from the brand.

Su Wuli was led around in a circle by her, and the champagne in her hand was replaced with a third glass.

She didn't actually drink much; she only took a sip each time before putting the cup down.

But Xu Weiwei was always by her side, and every time she raised her glass, she smiled and gestured, and before she knew it, she had drunk a little herself.

"Wu Li, you're too low-key." Xu Weiwei leaned closer and lowered her voice. "You should move around more in these kinds of situations, otherwise people will think you're difficult to talk to."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli was stunned. She thought to herself, no wonder she debuted two years later than her, but has been gaining momentum recently.

Su Wuli had to admit that Xu Weiwei did a very good job in this regard.

Su Wuli smiled and said, "I'm used to it."

Xu Weiwei looked at her, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"By the way, there's an investor over there who's been wanting to meet you."

She pointed to the other end of the banquet hall.

Su Wuli looked in that direction and saw several middle-aged men standing there, dressed in suits and ties.

Xu Weiwei continued, "President Zhou, who works in real estate, has invested in several films in the past two years. He has been praising you and saying he really wants to work with you."

Su Wuli glanced at it again.

She had met that Mr. Zhou twice.

One was a cocktail party six months ago, and the other was a gathering of a production team.

He was unusually enthusiastic both times, to the point that she felt uncomfortable.

Later, Lin Liwen helped her fend off the contact a few times, and then they stopped having contact.

She looked away and replied casually, "I've seen you before."

Xu Weiwei leaned closer and lowered her voice.

"He's told me several times that he wanted to invite you to dinner, but he was worried you'd be too busy. Now that we've run into each other today, why don't you go over and say hello?"

Su Wuli glanced at her.

Xu Weiwei had a smile on her face and her eyes were full of sincerity.

"Wait a minute," Su Wuli said. "I'm going to the restroom first."

Xu Weiwei nodded, "Okay, I'll go over there first, you can come over later."

She smiled, waved, and turned to walk in that direction.

Su Wuli watched her retreating figure, placed the glass of wine in her hand on the tray of a passing waiter, and walked towards the restroom.

The corridor was much quieter than the banquet hall.

She stood in front of the sink, splashed cold water on her face, and looked at herself in the mirror.

The dark circles under my eyes are still there, and concealer can't cover them up very well.

But I feel a little better than I did a few days ago.

After gathering her thoughts, she pulled out a tissue to dry her hands, applied some more lipstick, and turned to walk back.

When they returned to the banquet hall, Xu Weiwei was still in the same spot, talking to several investors.

Seeing her approach, Xu Weiwei immediately smiled and waved.

"Kiri, over here."

Su Wuli walked over.

Xu Weiwei took her arm and led her to the group of people.

"President Zhou, this is Wu Lisu, the one you've met before."

Zhou Tao looked at Su Wuli and smiled warmly, "Miss Su, it's been a long time. I wanted to treat you to a drink last time, but unfortunately you left early."

Su Wuli smiled and accepted the champagne offered by the person next to her.

"Mr. Zhou, you're too kind."

Zhou Tao raised his glass. "Let's chat a bit more today."

Su Wuli also raised her glass and took a sip.

Xu Weiwei smiled and chimed in occasionally, creating a lively atmosphere.

The group chatted for a while, their conversation shifting from games to investments, and then from investments to the recent market.

Su Wuli stood there, occasionally responding with a few words, but mostly just listening.

Xu Weiwei stayed by her side the whole time, occasionally leaning over to whisper a few words to her.

"Wu Li, you haven't had enough to drink," Xu Weiwei whispered, leaning closer. "You have to show some respect in this kind of situation."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli looked at the glass of wine in her hand; the champagne in the glass had indeed barely been touched.

She looked up and saw that everyone else's cups were empty, but she was still holding a cup that was more than half full.

"I can't hold my liquor."

Xu Wei smiled slightly, "Alright, then do as you please. I just wanted to remind you, about President Zhou..."

She gestured towards Zhou Tao with her lip and whispered, "He seems quite happy today. Give him some face so we can cooperate better in the future."

Su Wuli glanced at Zhou Tao.

He was talking to the person next to him, his face beaming with smiles.

Su Wuli didn't say anything, but simply picked up the glass of wine and took another sip.

Actually, she didn't really want to cooperate with the other party.

"You're such a kind person," Xu Wei said with a smile. "If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know."

Su Wuli smiled but didn't reply.

She took another sip of wine.

The banquet continued, with people coming and going, their voices and laughter blending together.

Su Wuli stood there and suddenly felt a little hot.

The air conditioning in the banquet hall was on full blast; she shouldn't have felt hot.

She looked down at the cup in her hand, then looked up at Xu Weiwei.

Xu Weiwei was talking to the person next to her and didn't look at her.

The heat became increasingly noticeable, spreading from my chest to my face and then to my limbs.

Su Wuli's heart began to race, and she found it hard to breathe.

Not right.

She quickly put down the cup, trying to find an excuse to leave.

"Wu Li?" Xu Weiwei turned to look at her, her face showing concern. "What's wrong? Why is your face so red?"

His eyes were full of concern.

"It's a bit hot," Su Wuli said, her voice slightly unsteady. "I'm going to get some fresh air."

Seeing this, Xu Weiwei immediately supported her arm, "You're drunk so quickly? I'll go with you."

Her hands were steady as she helped Su Wuli walk outside.

Walk through the crowd, through the corridor, past the restroom, and keep walking forward.

This isn't the way to the door.

Su Wuli wanted to speak, but her tongue seemed to be malfunctioning.

She grabbed Xu Weiwei's arm, trying to stop her.

"It's alright, it's alright," Xu Weiwei's voice whispered in my ear. "The rest room is up ahead, you can rest for a while."

She was very strong and helped Su Wuli continue walking forward.

The things in front of me began to blur.

The lights and corridors all turned into clusters of light and shadow.

In the end, all Su Wuli heard was the sound of a door opening.

Then came Xu Weiwei's voice, "Get some rest, Wuli."
