Chapter 20

~7 min read 1,298 words

Yang Mi stood under a streetlight not far away, clutching the room card, looking at them gloomily.

As a man, in what situation is one most dangerous? Of course, when caught in the act.

But Zhou Jin had never claimed to be a good man.

Since he had been reborn, was he supposed to act like an incompetent husband, watching helplessly as the women he liked, and who liked him, fell for others one by one?

Zhou Jin felt the warmth on Reba's lips, while in his peripheral vision, he saw Yang Mi's murderous gaze.

He simply closed his eyes.

Pretending not to see.

Reba finally let go of Zhou Jin, the blush on her face not yet faded. When she turned her head, she froze completely.

"Ah! Mi-jie! Why are you here?"

Yang Mi walked over expressionlessly and handed her the room card: "Delivering your room card."

Reba took the room card, her voice trembling: "Then... then did you see everything just now?"

Yang Mi's mouth twitched, and she didn't speak.

Reba's heart, which had been hanging, died completely.

When she signed with the company, the contract stated in black and white that she was not allowed to date. Moreover, she and Yang Mi had always been close friends, and she truly respected this older sister. Now, she had openly violated the contract and had been caught on the spot by Mi-jie.

Reba weakly grabbed the corner of Yang Mi's clothes, her voice as small as a mosquito's: "Mi-jie, don't blame Zhou Jin. It's not his fault; I was the one who initiated it."

Yang Mi looked at her pitiful appearance and sighed helplessly.

Of course, she knew Reba had initiated it. If Zhou Jin hadn't sent her a WeChat message asking her to replace the room card, she wouldn't have known this silly girl was so brave.

"Alright, you go back first," Yang Mi said.

Reba looked at Yang Mi, then at Zhou Jin, her feet seemingly rooted to the spot.

"He's a grown man, and I'm a young woman; what could I possibly do to him?" Yang Mi said irritably.

Seeing Yang Mi say this, Reba finally felt relieved and entered the hotel, looking back every three steps.

【Detected close interaction between the host and top-tier female star Reba. Reward: Random Intermediate Entry x1, Luck Card x1.】

Zhou Jin was stunned for a moment.

Why didn't the system give a reward the first time he was intimate with Reba?

He had figured out the system's rules a little bit.

There were four stages of affinity with first-tier or top-tier stars.

The first stage was ordinary interaction.

The reward was a primary entry.

And there were two people who had achieved the second stage: one was Yang Mi, and the other was Reba.

The reward for this stage was an intermediate entry, plus another reward.

Yang Mi's reward was a Character Experience Card, while Reba's reward was a Luck Card.

Yang Mi was easy to explain; the two of them had played many intense "ball games."

And Reba was no longer just feeling a fondness for him; she had truly fallen for him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jin's gaze softened a lot.

【Do you want to draw a primary entry?】

Zhou Jin confirmed in his heart.

A slot machine appeared on the light screen, and the patterns on it rolled continuously.

【Entry draw successful—Primary Entry: Martial Scene Foundation.】

【Entry effect: Possess solid basic skills for martial arts scenes, making martial arts scenes more tense and coherent during performance, restoring the most textured martial arts presentation.】

Zhou Jin's eyes lit up.

If there was any shortcoming in the Ling Yue he played, it was that the martial arts scenes were not smooth enough.

With this entry, he could take on works with more martial arts scenes.

Zhou Jin looked at the Luck Card again.

【Luck Card: After use, you will enter a Luck State, which will increase your luck slightly at critical moments. Once the luck is exhausted, you will exit the Luck State.】

Zhou Jin was stunned for a moment, not expecting such a good thing.

However, seeing the introduction of the Luck Card, it was very ambiguous, without clear explanation or specific rules on how it affected good luck.

But Zhou Jin didn't have time to look closely because Yang Mi had already walked over expressionlessly.

Yang Mi was truly jealous this time.

Yang Mi comforted herself that the two were just ordinary "ball game" teammates, and it was Zhou Jin's freedom to play singles with whoever he liked.

But the more she comforted herself, the greater the fire in her heart burned.

Cheating behind her back was one thing, but cheating so openly in front of her was another.

The two tacitly went to Yang Mi's room.

The door closed.

Yang Mi sat on the bed and said expressionlessly: "Come here."

Zhou Jin walked over, standing very close.

"Hold me," Yang Mi ordered.

Zhou Jin did as told, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist and pulling her into his embrace.

"Kiss me."

Zhou Jin lowered his head and kissed her.

Then Yang Mi also hugged Zhou Jin, fiercely pressing him beneath her.

For a long time.

An intense "ball game" ended.

Yang Mi leaned against Zhou Jin's chest, her cheeks flushed, her breathing not yet steady, and only then did her expression reveal a hint of charm.

She had tried several times to defeat Zhou Jin, but unfortunately, Zhou Jin's singles ability was too strong.

She was defeated every time, and in the end, she could only beg for mercy in a soft, charming voice.

Yang Mi glanced at Zhou Jin, who was refreshed and still full of vigor, and sighed softly in her heart.

"Being young is good; you can use all your energy."

Zhou Jin looked down at her.

"I just followed your orders; now can you listen to mine?"

Yang Mi raised her eyes, somewhat curious: "What do you want to do?"

Zhou Jin pressed down on her head gently.

Yang Mi's eyes widened instantly.

"No, that's too absurd, absolutely not."

Then Yang Mi exerted force, pushed Zhou Jin down, and kissed him fiercely.

She raised her head and stared at him fiercely: "Don't even think about it."

Zhou Jin looked into her eyes and deliberately slowed his tone: "Mi-jie, I'm going back to Yanjing tomorrow, and I don't know when we'll see each other again."

Yang Mi's movements paused.

She was someone who always responded to soft tactics rather than hard ones and loved hearing sweet words.

Yang Mi's heart softened in the end; she glared at Zhou Jin fiercely, then brushed her hair aside and lowered her head.

Ten minutes later.

Yang Mi straightened up, glared at Zhou Jin, and cursed: "You bastard, this is the last time!"

Zhou Jin gently hugged Yang Mi's slender waist and said softly:

"Alright, alright, the last time."

Yang Mi finally breathed a sigh of relief, wrapped her bathrobe around herself, stepped barefoot on the floor, and walked toward the sink with sore legs.

Reba's room.

Reba lay on the bed, making a phone call.

On the other end of the line, Nazha looked at Reba expectantly: "So, is that Zhou Jin you like a scumbag?"

Reba's series of moves was, of course, seeking help from Nazha, who called herself a "Love Master."

Reba pouted and said: "I said I couldn't find the room card in my bag, and he leaned over. I thought he was going to kiss me. But he reached into my bag, rummaged around, and found the room card for me."

Nazha:...

Damn it, why was it different from what she predicted?

Nazha gritted her teeth and said: "Reba, don't be careless. This might be a feint."
