Chapter 63: 63 National Idol (33)



“They got wet.” Su Jiu blinked innocently. “Do you want me to put them on?”

Su Jiu’s clothes were right next to him, and Chuzheng reached out to touch them. Sure enough, they were wet, even the bathrobe was damp.

What on earth had he been doing in the bathroom?

Chuzheng touched his forehead: “Why are you so cold?”

Su Jiu shook his head in confusion: “I don’t know.”

Chuzheng turned the temperature up a bit, and Su Jiu wrapped himself around her contentedly, not feeling the slightest bit guilty about deliberately wetting his clothes and taking a cold shower.

If he didn’t do something…

He might never have any real interaction with her in this lifetime.

He could only be more proactive.

The room’s lighting dimmed, as if the only sound were the slight breaths of the two of them.

“Chuzheng.”

Su Jiu suddenly called her.

“Mmm.” Chuzheng obviously hadn’t fallen asleep either, her fingers gently grasping his soft hair.

“I like you.” Su Jiu raised his head, looking at her through the faint light: “Can we date?”

Can’t do it.

[Little sister, let’s have a rewind!]

“We can.” What’s dating? It’s fine!

Su Jiu was first stunned, and then overjoyed: “Do you like me too?”

“No.”

“…” Su Jiu, all excited just a moment ago, felt as if he’d been doused with a bucket of ice water, his limbs stiffening: “Then why… did you agree to me?”

“You wanted it.” So I agreed, for the Good Person Card, charge!

Su Jiu fell silent for a moment: “Will you like me in the future?”

Chuzheng parted her lips, and after more than ten seconds, she replied faintly: “I don’t know.”

Su Jiu bit his lip hard. She agreed to date you, didn’t she? You can’t ask for more… Su Jiu, you have to control yourself.

“Could you try to like me, please?” Su Jiu, hugging her neck, spoke softly: “I’ll be very good.”

Chuzheng: “…”

The room fell into a silence.

Chuzheng’s gaze settled into the dark void, wondering blankly, what is like…? She hadn’t learned this, was there a tutorial?

After a while, Chuzheng pulled away his hands from around her neck and touched his head: “Let’s sleep.”

“Kiss me.”

“I’m going to sleep on the sofa.” Chuzheng got up.

“No kiss.” Su Jiu quickly held onto her: “I’ll sleep.”

But as Chuzheng lay back down, Su Jiu still quickly kissed her on the corner of her mouth: “We’re dating now; kissing is normal. You can’t refuse me; it would make me sad.”

Su Jiu hugged her grumpily.

“Then let’s break up.”

“…”

Then no kiss!

“An actor surnamed Liu died at four in the early morning, suspected to have had a confrontation with a fugitive murderer. The reason for their encounter is still under investigation…”

Su Jiu rubbed his eyes and sat up. The news broadcast on TV, the scene being that of Shanhai Road Warehouse.

The place was chaotic with police coming in and out.

Su Jiu watched the entire news in a stupor. Dead?

Liu Manman was dead. Two kidnappers were dead… the rest had escaped.

Chuzheng wasn’t in the room, Su Jiu could only find clean clothes and shoes. He fished out his phone to call Chuzheng, but the person who answered was a crew member, saying she was filming and couldn’t answer the phone right now.

Su Jiu changed into her clothes and went straight to the set to find her.

Chuzheng had just finished filming, holding her phone with the screen on the call interface, seemingly ready to return his call.

“Baby.”

Chuzheng’s fingers trembled, and she glared at Su Jiu expressionlessly, “What did you call me?” What kind of weird nickname is that? Are city people that scary?

“Baby, of course.” Su Jiu responded promptly, immediately changing the subject, “Have you seen the news? Liu Manman is dead, how could she die… Baby, you…”

Dead is dead, no more trouble, just what I wanted.

Wait a minute…

Chuzheng: “What about me?”

Su Jiu pulled her aside, a worried look on his face, “Will the police suspect you?”

“What’s that got to do with me?” Chuzheng was utterly confused.

“Last night…” She had lured Liu Manman to the kidnappers, wasn’t it her who directed those kidnappers?

“I just wanted them to teach her a lesson, how she died has nothing to do with me.”

She actually did want to get rid of Liu Manman. The King’s Account kept screaming, and even when she blocked it, it had the ability to break through forcefully, claiming it was some sort of emergency mechanism, with the right to correct any of her actions that could possibly lead to mission failure, to rewind and start over.

Chuzheng expressed: “???”

That damn thing could even forcefully break through the block!

What’s the use of blocking then!?

Is it just to deceive me?

The King’s Account probably felt quite complicated at the time. Is that the point? Is it?

But the King’s Account quickly explained that this emergency mechanism could be used up to three times on a single plane, with each online session lasting three hours.

Su Jiu: “Really?”

“Yeah.”

Su Jiu’s hanging heart settled, “That’s good… Baby, shall we have lunch together?”

“Takeout?”

Su Jiu: “…” You used to take me to five-star hotels, and now you ask me to eat takeout? Are you taking me for granted now that we’re together?!

“Yeah, sure.” Su Jiu agreed obediently.

“Don’t call me baby.” It makes her sound like she’s not weaned, affecting her image.

“Okay, baby.”

“…”

A passing crew member: “…” Can’t bear to look, it’s too much torture.

Due to media exposure of Liu Manman’s murder case, the authorities tirelessly inspected the site and searched for clues.

It was ultimately confirmed that it was Liu Manman who had first contacted those murderers, but what exactly she planned to do with them was not yet known.

Based on the scene, it appeared there was a conflict between the two parties; Liu Manman was stabbed three times, one strike hitting a vital point, and the other two murderers also had similar stab wounds, but one of them died from hitting the back of his head as he fell.

So this was likely the result of a mutual struggle.

The few who were still on the run, they would catch them as quickly as possible.

The traces of Chuzheng visiting with her bodyguards were wiped clean.

[Miss, have you been doing something behind my back?] The King’s Account was suspicious because it had a twelve-hour hibernation period after using the emergency mechanism.

During that time, it knew nothing about what she did.

She must never find out about this!

“No.”

[…] The King’s Account was skeptical; she was earnestly denying things she had done, and it wasn’t the first time, totally lacking in credibility.

“Are you doubting me?” This really had nothing to do with her! Was she that kind of person? Was she? No, she wasn’t!

[…] Don’t you have any idea if you will be suspected? [Miss, I’m just worried you might mess up the mission. You wouldn’t want a rewind, right?]

“If I did it, we would be rewinding right now,” Chuzheng spoke calmly: “Are we rewinding now?”

That damn thing actually doubt her! What about the trust between man and… no, between a person and a system? It needs a lesson!

[…] Miss is too scary!

The King’s Account indicated it needed to go offline to calm down.
