Quick Wear: The host is really just a substitute!

Chapter 840: The 7 Constellations of Professional Stuntmen (53)

Mu Shi's fingers holding the phone trembled slightly, and her knuckles turned white: "No, I'm not here, what's wrong?"

She subconsciously lowered her voice, "When the boss was leaving the hotel, she was stopped by a man who said he was a friend she knew before."

There was a dull thud of a pen resting heavily on a solid wooden tabletop. Fu Yunzhi's voice came through the receiver, as low as the calm before a storm: "Send me the name and location of the hotel."

"Oh, okay." Mu Shi responded hurriedly, but before she finished her words, she heard a "click" and the call was cut off neatly.

Sang Xia and Jiang Tianmo watched her let out a long sigh and lean against the marble pillar like a deflated ball. They couldn't help but joke, "Who is so scary? Her boyfriend checking up on her?"

"Stop it, Xiao Jiang." Mu Shi weakly swiped open her phone, and her slender fingers quickly tapped the hotel address on the screen. "It's Sister Yue's boyfriend. He couldn't find Sister Yue, so he called me."

Jiang Tianmo's eyes widened, and she covered her mouth as if she suddenly remembered something: "Wait! Is it that person from before——"

She lowered her voice and imitated the cold male voice in her memory.

"The one who said 'she's not available' and then hung up?"

Sang Xia also became interested and took two steps closer: "Sister Mu Shi, you must have seen it before, right? Can you tell me what it is?"

The corners of Mu Shi's mouth twitched and she looked around vigilantly.

After confirming that there was no one else around, she hooked her finger mysteriously.

The three heads immediately gathered together to form a small circle for conversation.

"Fu Yunzhi." Mu Shi uttered these three words in a whisper. As soon as she finished speaking, she felt both her arms being pinched at the same time.

"What?!" Jiang Tianmo almost broke her voice and was covered by Mu Shi's hand over her mouth.

The little girl's eyes were wide open, like a frightened rabbit.

"Shh!" Mu Shi looked around nervously, "I'm only saying this because you guys are from the same family. Don't tell anyone!"

The two girls nodded frantically, and Sang Xia even made a gesture of zipping up her mouth.

Jiang Tianmo came to her senses and suddenly realized: "No wonder Sister Yue said she is not afraid of the Shen family..."

She swallowed and exchanged a knowing look with Sang Xia.

Mu Shi looked at the wonderful changes in expressions on the two people's faces and held her forehead helplessly.

As dusk fell, the court summons fell like a light feather.

Mu Shi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the hotel lobby, her fingertips stroking the paper notice with a bright red seal on it. The neon lights outside the window made her profile flicker.

"The trial will begin in a month." She whispered, and her voice produced a faint echo in the empty hall.

Sang Xia and Jiang Tianmo came over from the left and right to look, and the shadows of the three people overlapped into a strange shape on the smooth marble floor.

Jiang Tianmo took out her phone: "I have to tell Sister Yue quickly..."

"Wait, why can't I get through to Sister Yue's phone?"

Sang Xia had already started looking through her bag: "I haven't received a reply to the message I sent this morning."

Her nails unconsciously scratched the straps of the bag, leaving several tiny scratches on the leather surface.

Mu Shi suddenly realized something, and the sudden phone call in the morning re-rang in her mind - Fu Yunzhi's cold voice, the muffled sound of the pen resting on the table, every detail suddenly became meaningful.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on her back, soaking her silk business shirt.

"Don't panic." She took a deep breath. Her lawyer's instinct kept her voice steady, but she couldn't hide the trembling at the end of her voice. "Let's first..."

Halfway through her words, the sound of the elevator "dinging" interrupted her thoughts.

The three of them turned their heads at the same time, only to see a strange couple walking out together.

Sang Xia's fingertips had already dug into her palm: "Do you want to call the police?"

"It will take 24 hours." Mu Shi answered mechanically, but her brain was working fast.

She suddenly grabbed her coat and said, "But we can't just sit there and wait for death. Sister Yue can only go so far. Let's look for her."

At the same time, 300 kilometers away in Haiyuan City, the closing party of a dating variety show was reaching its climax.

The crystal chandelier illuminates the banquet hall like daylight, and the champagne tower reflects the dazzling light.

The camera's red light flashed, recording the guests' final interaction.

Pei Yu stood alone on the terrace.

Inside the glass door, Song Yue was surrounded and laughed by other MCs. She had specially chosen a backless dress today, and her butterfly bones looked like a pair of wings fluttering under the light.

There seemed to be an invisible barrier between the two of them, and they even avoided looking at each other.

The director wiped his sweat and paced back and forth in front of the monitor, whispering into the headset from time to time: "Team A, keep an eye on Pei Yu, Team B, make sure Song Yue stays in the main stage area."

The back of his suit was already stained with dark sweat. "We must not allow them to appear in the same frame."

What happened between Pei Yu and Song Yue two days ago was more or less seen by others on the Internet.

If they were to appear in the same frame, it would probably trigger netizens' memories of what happened that day.

It does the program no good but only harm.

At eight o'clock sharp.

As the last cluster of fireworks exploded in the night sky, the brilliant flames illuminated the entire seaside stage.

The program team displayed the words "The End of the Show", and there was warm applause and cheers from the audience.

Amidst the flying ribbons, the MCs hugged each other goodbye, the camera slowly turned off, and this weeks-long dating variety show finally came to an end.

Pei Yu did not take part in the final group photo.

He stood at the edge of the crowd, his slender figure flickering in the fireworks.

The phone screen lit up, and it was a message from grandma: [I must return to Lincheng tonight. ]

Six short words that cannot be refused.

What concerned him more was another piece of information: [Unable to find out who Fu Yunzhi’s girlfriend is].

Pei Yu's fingertips tapped lightly on the edge of the phone, and his eyes darkened.

Lincheng is different.

There, he had plenty of ways to find the person.

He turned and left, quickly disappearing in the direction of the parking lot.

Song Yue stood there, watching him leave expressionlessly.

The assistant handed over the coat carefully: "Sis, it's just a variety show, don't take it too seriously."

"I know." Song Yue took the coat, but did not put it on. She just casually put it on her arm.

She suddenly turned her head, and a meaningful smile appeared on her red lips.

"I have something to do these few days, so I'll tell Sister Wang that I'll postpone the announcement."

The assistant was immediately anxious: "Sister! Sister Wang is already very dissatisfied with your negative attitude during this period. If you continue..."

"I'm getting married." Song Yue interrupted her lightly, her fingertips circling the ends of her hair. "It's one of the three great happy events in life. Sister Wang wouldn't even allow this, right?"

The assistant's eyes widened, and the schedule in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang": "Get married?! With whom..."

Song Yue chuckled, leaned over to pick up the schedule, and patted the assistant's stiff shoulder: "Don't worry, you must know the person."

She blinked, "And...it definitely won't affect my career."

She spoke the last sentence softly, but it gave the assistant an inexplicable chill.

In the distance, the last firework went out in the night sky, leaving only a wisp of smoke that slowly dissipated.

【Host. 】

The voice of System 7342 sounded faintly in Song Yue's mind, like a radio that was about to run out of battery, issuing intermittent warnings.

[I sincerely remind you... before you get the marriage certificate with the male lead Pei Yu... please don't tell anyone about this. 】

Its sound was slower than usual, and even had a hint of electrical noise, as if it would completely shut down at any time.

[My current energy... is only 5% left... The chance of success of this... is very small...]

Song Yue made an impatient "tsk" sound in her heart, quickly swiped the screen of her phone, and booked the fastest flight to Lincheng.

"I know, I'll buy a plane ticket now." She curled her lips and sneered in her heart, "Aren't you known as the most powerful system in the heroine department? It takes so much energy to let you bind me to the hero, and I only have single digits left."

She rolled her eyes, opened her red lips, and silently uttered three words: "What a rubbish."

After a pause, he added maliciously: "You are suspected of false advertising, don't you understand?"

7342: ...

Who is responsible for the repeated decrease in its energy?

If it weren't for this host's incompetence, relying on the system for everything, having no points and having to take out loans in advance, and failing missions repeatedly, how could its energy drop to single digits!

I clearly said that increasing the male protagonist's favorability can replenish energy...

The results of it?

After all of Song Yue's operations, her favorability didn't increase at all, but her disgust value did increase a lot. This was all because he used a plug-in to forcibly bind her to the male protagonist.

Let's boost our energy...

7342 thought desperately.

It really doesn't want to be bound to this host anymore!

However, 7342 didn't know that

The real reason why its energy plummeted from double digits to single digits actually came largely from the second task that Song Yuesheng was carrying out: helping the original heroine out of trouble.

But at this time, Song Yuesheng was in a deep coma due to system punishment.

**

In the penthouse suite of the most luxurious hotel in Yuncheng, a heat wave was blowing in the face.

The air conditioner was turned to the highest temperature, and the heater, electric blanket, and even the temporary small solar heater were all aimed at the large bed in the center. The indoor temperature was close to 50 degrees, and even the air was slightly distorted due to the high temperature.

But the girl on the bed was still as cold as ice.

Fu Yunzhi stood by the window, clutching the curtains with his knuckles turning white. His expensive suit jacket had long been thrown aside.

Lu Xingyi changed the towel on Song Yuesheng's forehead that was heated by his body temperature for the third time, and water droplets slid down his tense jawline.

Blue Sparrow looked at the five male protagonists who were guarding Sister Yue's bedside.

Two hours ago, these five men brought the unconscious Song Yuesheng out of the Chinese medicine clinic.

Now they were guarding the bed like five trapped beasts, and no one was willing to give in.

"Ugh."

Blue Sparrow sighed.

Sister Yue not only had murderous intentions, she also sent a message directly in the group. The double violation extended the punishment time to ten hours.

If there had been a longer interval between the two violations, it would have been possible to just record the offense without any punishment...

It scrolled through the forums irritably.

We have returned to our home ground, why are there still such restrictions?

"Si Shu, what do you want to do?"

Lu Xingyi suddenly shouted and grabbed Si Shu's wrist as he was reaching towards Song Yuesheng.

Veins bulged on the two men's arms, and they looked like two volcanoes about to erupt in the steaming room.

"Take her back to S City." Si Shu's voice was like ice, and sweat slid down his sharp brows. "What good will come of continuing to waste time here?"

"You can't take my sister away now."

Jiang Xu interrupted in a hoarse voice, the boy's originally clear voice was made hoarse by the high temperature.

He stood in front of the bed, the sweat dripping from his hair leaving dark marks on the Persian carpet: "She can't stand it."

Si Shu sneered, his eyes bloodshot: "So what do you say we should do? Just sit there and wait?"

His question echoed in the silent room.

Xu Yanheng took off his glasses and slowly wiped the lenses with the cuff of his shirt.

The rising heat soon covered the lenses with a thin layer of mist again, and he had to repeat the action, his knuckles turning slightly white from the effort.

"Jiang Xu is right." His voice was as calm as the sea before a storm, "You can't take Shengsheng away."

The eyes behind the lens suddenly became sharp, "Even if Ruan Lan has a way to wake her up——"

Xu Yanheng paused, put on his glasses again, and the lenses reflected a cold light: "Si Shu, do you think she will let Sheng Sheng go with this physique?"

The temperature in the room seemed to rise a few degrees.

"Let's take a step back," Xu Yanheng walked to the bedside and looked at the motionless girl on the bed, "Even if Ruan Lan thinks of family affection, her team is not just her."

He leaned over and tucked the quilt for Song Yuesheng. "His body temperature was as cold as ice, but he was breathing. He was unconscious, but he was still alive. And he stopped breathing before, but he survived..."

His fingertips stopped an inch away from Song Yuesheng's neck: "If these characteristics are spread out, what awaits her is endless human experiments."

Fu Yunzhi suddenly sneered and walked out from the shadows.

"And your big brother."

He casually unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, revealing the scar on his collarbone. "Don't we always say that scientists are all perverts?"

Fu Yunzhi looked at Si Shu provocatively, "But...if you want to take it, then take it. Let's see whether your plane is faster or my bullet is faster."

Si Shu suddenly took off his watch and threw it over, and it instantly broke into pieces at Fu Yunzhi's feet.

"If anyone is going to die, you should die first!"

He hated Fu Yunzhi's face the most.

Just talk about those little things from childhood over and over again.

The most outrageous one is Shengsheng.

He actually said that it was all because of Fu Yunzhi's inspiration that he was able to live a normal life in the Shen family for fourteen years.

Although he knew Shengsheng didn't mean that, he was still very angry.

Si Shu's chest heaved violently and he turned to look at the person on the bed.

The high fever made his vision a little blurred, but Song Yuesheng's pale face was exceptionally clear.

"Shengsheng," he said, his voice suddenly softening, "it's time to wake up."

Just as he reached out to touch her, Lu Xingyi suddenly jumped up and kicked him away. Si Shu hit the wall hard, and his expensive suit scratched the wallpaper.

"Don't touch her with your dirty hands." Lu Xingyi stood in front of the bed, like a wolf guarding its food.

Si Shu coughed up a mouthful of blood foam and suddenly laughed.

Oh shit!

I almost forgot there is this lunatic!

Lu Xingyi is the true founder who treats all people equally.

Shengsheng's tears and so on...

Si Shu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He had figured it out a long time ago.

Don't care at all.

Unlike the other three idiots.
