Chapter 24

“Anyone who can catch Director Wang’s eye is certainly no ordinary person.”

This woman was too good at flirting.

Her gaze was practically spinning silk.

She wasn’t as charmingly seductive as Yang Mi.

Nor was she as bewitchingly gorgeous as Sister Reba.

Yet, she was very good at seducing people.

Yang Mi was a voluptuous beauty.

Sister Reba was a venomous snake.

Xin Xin Zhilei was more like a fox.

She knew exactly how to hook a man’s soul!

Papi Jiang said in a manic way: “Su Chen, how did you grow up to be like this? You’re too handsome!”

“There aren’t many in the entertainment industry as handsome as you, and they’re all here on set.”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Su Chen also had high emotional intelligence.

He immediately raised his glass to toast the King of Sunglasses.

“Thank you, Director Wang, for giving me this opportunity to act in *Blossoms Shanghai*.”

“This might be the perfect opportunity for me to skyrocket to fame.”

The King of Sunglasses also raised his glass.

“What are you saying? With your image, temperament, and acting skills, becoming a top-tier superstar—”

“—and perhaps even surpassing Liang Liang Chaowei in the future, is just a matter of time.”

“It’s just that filming my work will save you from taking a few detours.”

Following that.

Su Chen looked toward You You Benchang.

He poured himself a full glass of liquor, a two-tael serving.

Saying he grew up watching Tang Yan’s shows was a joke.

But You You Benchang’s *Ji Gong*.

Su Chen had truly watched it dozens of times as a child.

Furthermore, You You Benchang had excellent character and took great care of the younger generation.

He was absolutely a person of both virtue and artistic merit.

By comparison.

The other, more famous Monkey King, was a bit lacking.

“Teacher You, I’ll finish this; you just drink some tea.”

“Drinking too much alcohol affects your health.”

After saying this.

Su Chen swallowed the white liquor in one go.

This gave You You Benchang a start.

“Good child, you don’t have to be so polite.”

“You’re young, but you shouldn’t drink white liquor like that.”

Drinking too much alcohol is indeed harmful to the body.

But everyone’s constitution is different.

Su Chen’s Nine Yang Body had an incredibly strong ability to metabolize alcohol.

It could infinitely weaken the damage caused by alcohol.

After the opening banquet.

The King of Sunglasses clapped his hands.

“Everyone, go back and get some good rest; we start filming officially the day after tomorrow!”

“People say I film slowly, dragging things out for years.”

“With this drama, I want to clear my name!”

“Everyone, let’s get to work, starting with me.”

………

At night.

The lights began to twinkle.

The entire Magic City was shrouded in a vast sea of neon lights.

Extremely prosperous.

The street where the theater was located was a simulation of the 90s.

But it was still lined with high-rises, filled with red lights and green wine.

After all, this international metropolis had been a city that never sleeps for a hundred years.

Su Chen wandered around the street.

Then he picked a dance hall with an open door and walked inside.

This dance hall wouldn’t be used for a while.

It was in an idle state.

There was no one inside; it was very dark.

Su Chen turned on the lights and went to the third floor.

Gazing at the night view in the distance.

Such an empty dance hall.

Let alone at night.

Even in the daytime, anyone with a bold heart would feel fear if they went in alone.

But Su Chen’s Yang energy was overflowing; he was full of courage.

He wasn’t afraid of the dark at all.

Nor was he afraid of any female ghosts.

Even if there really were a female ghost.

If she were pretty.

Su Chen would pin her to the ground and rub her!

If she were ugly.

He’d twist her head off and rub it on the ground!

“Ah—”

Just then.

A scream rang out.

Su Chen was startled.

“Damn! Is there really a female ghost?”

He was instantly excited.

A married woman can trigger a Cao Cao attribute.

What about a ghost wife?

…………

【New book uploaded, begging for flowers, monthly tickets, and comments! Begging for all support】.

Following the sound of the "female ghost."

Su Chen went down to the second floor.

He saw a corner of the second-floor lobby.

A woman in red was howling in heart-wrenching agony.

If it were a normal person,

seeing this scene late at night would have scared them into wetting themselves on the spot.

As a firm, good youth of materialism,

Su Chen turned on his phone's flashlight.

At first glance, he recognized that this red dress belonged to Xin Xin Zhilei!

Her signature thick lips

quickly confirmed Su Chen's suspicion.

"Sister Lei, is that you?"

Su Chen's voice was warm and steady.

It was like a calming pill,

instantly making Xin Xin Zhilei calm down.

She stopped screaming.

She slowly lifted her slightly frantic, pretty face and let out a long sigh of relief.

"I..."

She stammered for a long time, unable to speak.

Su Chen pulled her up.

"In the middle of the night, you run to this empty dance hall to play a female ghost—who are you trying to scare?"

Xin Xin Zhilei had a resentful expression.

"Who's playing a female ghost? I saw you enter this dance hall, so I followed you in."

"Who knew... I had only walked halfway when you turned off the lights."

"It was pitch black just now, and I tripped over something."

"A big ball rolled right past me!"

"I couldn't help but imagine some terrifying scenes, so..."

Humans fear the unknown.

In the vast darkness, everyone will feel fear.

Often, the more afraid one is,

the easier it is to imagine terrifying scenes.

"You followed me?"

Su Chen was startled.

Isn't this something only a stalker would do?

It turns out women do it too!

It seems that as a boy out and about,

he must always be mindful of his safety.

Otherwise, he arrived perfectly fine,

but by the time he went back,

his body might no longer belong entirely to Sister Reba and Yang Mi.

"I... I didn't follow you, did I?"

"I saw you acting sneaky, so I followed out of curiosity."

"Turn on the lights, please; I'm very afraid of the dark!"

Su Chen pointed upstairs.

"There's a lounge area on the third floor; let's go up."

Xin Xin Zhilei's expression twisted.

"I fell just now and twisted my foot..."

"Can you carry me up?"

Xin Xin Zhilei's acting skills

are considered quite top-tier among actresses of her age.

Especially her performance in *Brotherhood of Blades*, which was extremely brilliant.

However,

Su Chen still instantly saw through the authenticity of her expression.

He chose to play along with her performance.

Su Chen slowly squatted down

and hoisted Xin Xin Zhilei onto his shoulders.

"Sister Lei, it's time to lose some weight."

Xin Xin Zhilei gave him a light punch.

"Do you want a beating? Who calls a girl fat?"

"I only weigh 96 jin! Also, just call me 'Sister' from now on."

"Don't call me 'Sister Lei'; it makes me think of the Thunder God."

Arriving at the third floor,

Su Chen caught Xin Xin Zhilei off guard

and grabbed her left ankle with his large hand.

In an instant, Xin Xin Zhilei had no reaction,

followed immediately by a delicate moan.

"Ah—it hurts, be gentle..."

"Don't use so much force!"

Su Chen was startled.

What kind of seductive sound was that?

Thank goodness no one else was around.

Su Chen sat on the sofa.

Xin Xin Zhilei sat with her long, fair legs raised, leaning to the side.

Her perfect body curves were fully revealed.

She licked her hot, spicy lips.

"Can you tell me why you ran to this ghostly place in the middle of the night?"

"It's so eerie!"

The same place,

in different environments, can give people different feelings.

Take this dance hall, for example.

If there were a performance, it would be packed.

That would be a very lively scene.

But at night, you can't even see a ghost.

It becomes a living hell, a Shura field.

It could scare someone to death!

Su Chen shrugged.

"People have curiosity and an adventurous spirit."

"I'm bold, so is there any problem with coming in to take a look?"

"The point is you—you're so timid, yet you still play the stalker!"

Xin Xin Zhilei grunted unconvinced.

"What stalker? Do you mean a woman who is infatuated?"

Su Chen laughed out loud: "Yes."

Xin Xin Zhilei propped her head up with her forearm, her eyes alluring.

"Now, I am infatuated with a man!"
