they still maintained a veneer of civility, especially since the Seven Fairies had formed a temporary alliance, creating a fragile “honeymoon period.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the “Happy Heaven and Earth: Seven Fairies” project ends, their careers will rise, competition will intensify, and resentment will deepen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, trying to bring them together—let alone stack them—would be far too difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, they’d all appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, their emotions were high, they were away from home for the holiday, feeling lonely, craving companionship, had drunk quite a bit, and were more relaxed, with a perfect excuse to let loose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wild, drunken mess tonight, then blackout tomorrow—nothing gets in the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go dream your fairy tale.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing snorted—she wasn’t short of men; why should she let this bastard treat her like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned to leave, but Yu Yanli pulled her back onto the sofa, wrapping his arms around her waist; she struggled, and he whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me have you once, I swear I won’t touch your sister—I’ll do whatever you want.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing’s movements slowed considerably; Yu Yanli pressed his advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next time you want a role, I’ll help you get it; any role I land that suits you, I’ll give it to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli had gone all in—these two Bing, no matter what, he’d start by painting the big picture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing was over thirty; she wasn’t some green newcomer anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grabbing her by the vital point, with enough incentive, Yu Yanli wasn’t some repulsive ugly man—physically, Li Bingbing didn’t lose out; if anything, she was the one getting the better deal, like an old ox nibbling tender grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides his flirtatious nature and occasional shamelessness, Li Bingbing genuinely admired and liked Yu Yanli himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he weren’t older, and if he’d shown even a hint of interest, she’d have taken him long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, when she tried to dissuade her sister from pursuing Yu Yanli, Li Bingbing had already entertained some bold ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She claimed it was for her sister’s sake, but there were countless ways to break up a couple—this aggressive strategy surely hid other motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli understood Li Bingbing’s meaning, which gave him the nerve to make his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worst case, he’d get scolded, then blame it on the alcohol; if she had no interest, then he was just a lecher—and getting hit with a bottle wouldn’t be too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at any other time, if Yu Yanli made his move and Li Bingbing didn’t outright reject him, a half-resistance might have been enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But today, Fan Xiaopang was right here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing was indeed open-minded, but not that open-minded—this bastard should’ve at least laid some groundwork gradually; no one starts this boldly on the first try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Li Bingbing hesitated, Fan Xiaopang was already ready to flip out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t sleep like this—what the hell do you think she is!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a dark face, Fan Xiaopang yanked Yu Yanli out from under her clothes, stood up to leave—but Yu Yanli pinned her down, and one sentence silenced her struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you want to hear her call you ‘Sister Bing’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though called “The Two Bing,” Fan Xiaopang was currently just a token player.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing starred in “The Mobile,” which became the 2003 box office champion, and she won the Hundred Flowers Award; last year’s “No Thieves Under Heaven” grossed over 100 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of how much credit she deserved, on paper, she was firmly in the top tier of mainland female leads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Happy Heaven and Earth: Seven Fairies” was a huge hit during the Spring Festival, and her appearance on the Gala further elevated her career.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xiaopang’s “Bingbing” was just a nickname; the real “Bingbing” was Li Bingbing’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Bing” might sound old-fashioned, but for Li Bingbing to be called “sister” by a group of younger actresses was, in itself, a sign of her fame and status—Fan Xiaopang couldn’t even guarantee anyone would respond if she tried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xiaopang got angry over the name “Jin Suo,” revealing her deep sensitivity and unwillingness to be sidelined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She resented being overshadowed by the two princesses in “My Fair Princess,” and now Li Bingbing overshadowed her—“Big Bingbing” and “Little Bingbing”—and she was bitter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli used this to control Fan Xiaopang—another vital point seized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t Yu Yanli using Li Bingbing to flatter her, elevating one Bing while belittling the other—he’d just lure her to bed first, then make Fan give it back later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli had full confidence in his persuasive abilities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the two Bing’s attitudes had softened—at least they hadn’t walked out directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But both were conflicted, clearly still struggling to accept it—the situation was stuck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Yu Yanli stopped his flowery persuasion and pulled out the liquor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s have a few drinks first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As always, alcohol isn’t good—but it’s a good excuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many things feel embarrassing or too awkward to do sober, but after drinking, things naturally fall into place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Bing didn’t agree, but they didn’t object either; Yu Yanli poured several glasses and took the initiative to ease the tension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Drinking straight is boring—let’s play a game.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do we play?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The game didn’t matter—what mattered was starting to drink and easing the atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli had been to countless banquets—he had a whole arsenal of drinking games; he started with some normal ones to warm things up: rock-paper-scissors, “seven,” truth or dare, and so on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few drinks, the mood opened up, and they moved to more advanced games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli didn’t dare go too far—he feared they’d snap or revolt and ruin everything—so he stuck to games that built intimacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xiaopang was young and close to Yu Yanli, so she played more wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In one game where they fed each other wine or fruit—originally done by hand—Fan Xiaopang held the wine in her mouth and the grape between her lips, batting her peach-blossom eyes at Yu Yanli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could Yu Yanli refuse her? He took it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing watched from the side, silently cursing the little vixen for being shameless—but she too was subtly drawn into the mood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, in a game where she and Yu Yanli bit into a biscuit, the biscuit between them disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more they drank, the wilder the games became; sensing the atmosphere was ripe, Yu Yanli suggested the suite was too noisy and proposed moving to another room to play in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Bing said nothing, but didn’t resist when Yu Yanli pulled them along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the new room, Yu Yanli raised the stakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No more fancy games—rock-paper-scissors to decide losers: loser either drinks or takes off one article of clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, regret was useless; the two Bing dropped their reservations and even began competing—each hoping to win first, forcing the little bitch to drink her own leftover broth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>New Year’s Eve, cold winter night\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst bursts of firecrackers, frozen crystals were torn apart by howling winds, cracking with sharp, crisp sounds...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the first day of the New Year, Li Bingbing woke to a ringing phone, fumbling for her mobile on the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sis, where are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing suddenly snapped awake, sat up, shoved aside the thigh pressing on her, checked the time, and forced calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m in the restaurant—drank too much with Xiao Fan last night, helped her back to her room, fell asleep there, just woke up hungry and came downstairs to eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xue didn’t think much of it, grumbled a bit, and hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing didn’t dare delay—she jumped up to get dressed, but a large hand pulled her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you going?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing slapped away the meddling hand: “It’s almost eleven—aren’t you afraid Dong Xuan will find out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve already arranged it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli had a good liquor tolerance and high energy—he woke much earlier than Li Bingbing and had cleared his tracks; Dong Xuan now thought he’d returned to the company for an emergency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t rush—I’ll tell the hotel to send your sister’s meal up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli assured Li Bingbing, his hand already stirring again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was radiant, beautiful, and fiery; the other was spirited, crisp, and decisive—combined, they made Yu Yanli’s memories of last night especially exquisite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing looked at him helplessly: “Are you done yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She now knew Yu Yanli hadn’t been boasting—he was truly formidable; even together, she and Fan Xiaopang had been utterly defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the wildness was over; now that the alcohol had worn off, they should return to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A hangover doesn’t clear so easily.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli ignored her—he might never get another chance like this with the two Bing; if he didn’t enjoy it now, he’d regret it later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing tried to escape, but she was no match for him—she was pinned down in seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli also teased the nearby Fan Xiaopang: “Stop pretending—your ears are already red.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Xiaopang opened her eyes and cursed: “Ass.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for the compliment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli didn’t care—he pulled her over and, with both hands at once, moved mountains and filled seas...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Li paid no mind, yanked her over, and with two tasks at once, moved mountains and filled seas…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around two in the afternoon, Fan Xiaopang and Li Bingbing finally showed up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for that man, fearing awkwardness or signs of retaliation, he kept busy with company matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lin and her husband had secured their tickets and were already packing to head to the airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Lin and her husband got the plane tickets and have already packed their things and headed to the airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One left, but three arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning how much fun Jiang Xin and others had at last night’s gathering, they came over after spending the New Year with their families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yanli didn’t cancel the hotel room—let them play as long as they wanted; a couple extra days’ rent wasn’t worth worrying about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why do all three of you seem weird?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Siyan studied Dong Xuan and the other two, sensing something off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing felt guilty; Fan Xiaopang defended: “We had too much fun last night, drank so much alcohol—we’re still dizzy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Bingbing agreed, Dong Xuan couldn’t deny last night’s private meeting with Yu Yanli, so she nodded in agreement; even Li Xue thought Hu Siyan was overreacting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Siyan listened, then carefully observed all four of their conditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xue’s face was pale, her lips dry; Li Bingbing had faint dark circles, her eyes weary; Fan Xiaopang’s cheeks were flushed, movements sluggish, voice hoarse; Dong Xuan was relatively the best, but faintly carried the scent of alcohol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm, everyone shows hangover symptoms differently—maybe she was just being overly suspicious…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps last night’s revelry had drained them all; the group mostly chatted and searched online for feedback on the Spring Festival Gala.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gala Masterpiece: The Seven Fairies Dance on Clouds, Enchanting All Nine Provinces”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Bingbing and Fan Xiaopang Appear with a Harem at the Gala: The Seven Fairies Stage a Musical Spectacle”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Debuting at the Gala, Igniting the Spring Festival Box Office: The Seven Fairies Become the 2005 New Trend”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Forum Buzz: Who Is the Most Beautiful of the Seven Fairies? The Li-Bingbing Rivalry Reignites, Hu Siyan Emerges as a Dark Horse”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Insiders Reveal: Huayi Plans to Sign Hu Siyan, Jiang Xin, and Others, Bringing the Seven Fairies Under Their Umbrella”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Four Dan, Seven Fairies? Can the Seven Fairies Become the New Face of Mainland’s Young Actresses?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xue read the final few headlines, glanced at Dong Xuan and Hu Siyan, then met her sister Li Bingbing’s eyes—they nodded in silent agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They hadn’t promoted the “Four Dan, Two Bing” concept for long, yet now someone was already trying to latch onto “Four Dan, Seven Fairies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Bing were both rising stars; Li Bingbing’s recent momentum could even rival the Four Dan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Seven Fairies? That was pure forced labeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were grouped together only because of the TV drama’s marketing and the Gala performance—none of them were even in the same league.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Li sisters strongly suspected the remaining few—or their corporate teams—were trying to forcibly tie themselves to the two Bing for promotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, they’d hesitated whether to enjoy more of the Seven Fairies’ benefits; now, after the New Year, Li Bingbing should sever ties with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tying herself to Fan Xiaopang was at least a mutually beneficial alliance—they had real connections, and the future looked promising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest? The Li sisters weren’t running an orphanage…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Li sisters pondered, Fan Xiaopang silently watched them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d discussed it with Yu Yanli: during the New Year, to preserve the Gala’s profits, they’d hold off on gossip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once “Happy Heaven, Happy Earth: The Seven Fairies” began full reruns and widespread promotion on local channels, they’d launch the rumors—maximizing profits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, the two Bing would officially “break ties” with Yu Yanli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, her career focus would shift from Huayi to Yi’an, led by Yu Yanli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether she’d terminate her contract outright or take legal action would depend on negotiations with Huayi and Hua-jie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Huayi, she’d been tightly suppressed by the Li sisters; joining Yi’an, with Yu Yanli’s planning and support, would be the real showdown between the two Bing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Bing each had their own agendas; others had theirs too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Xue and Jiang Xin thought simply: the collaboration went well, they’d gained plenty of exposure; Boss Yu was generous and sentimental—just keep clinging to his leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng” had already assigned them each a lead role in a standalone episode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With roles secured and continued closeness to Yu Yanli, when Yi’an had suitable projects, they’d be first in line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Siyan also wanted to cling to Yu Yanli’s leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Dong Xuan kept her at arm’s length—even Fan Xiaopang, who considered herself the future top star of the company, didn’t want a troublemaker disrupting her plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice—Hu Siyan had to turn elsewhere. Fortunately, “Happy Heaven, Happy Earth: The Seven Fairies” had given her plenty of fame; with some maneuvering, good opportunities wouldn’t be hard to find.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, she’d remembered this grudge—she’d reclaim her dignity someday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Xuan exhaled deeply; dealing with this group of fairies was exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You had to stay alert, yet also charm and soothe them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, things would quiet down—she wouldn’t need to deal with several of them anymore; just play with those willing, and watch out for one or two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Yi’an Film & Television, Yu Yanli, being interviewed by a journalist about the Seven Fairies, spoke of his feelings toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, they have an exceptional bond—close, affectionate, helping each other; sometimes it feels like their sisterhood runs deeper than blood…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2484,"2026-06-19T16:16:52.605Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","42ae4a04fc06914ece19f04d8c1e17c0bcfd6858a176f477a542d8083019a2a0","the-intelligence-king-of-chinese-entertainment-chapter-168","the-intelligence-king-of-chinese-entertainment-chapter-166",405,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-intelligence-king-of-chinese-entertainment-cover.jpg"]
