After Saving Her White Moonlight, She Blackened?! (GL) - Chapter 23
The skewers were soon ready. In the cool breeze of the summer night, the guests ate while the live stream continued.
“Where are my grilled bugs? Teacher Leng, did you grill them for me?” Lu Rang was still fixated on his grilled insects.
[This kid is a lost cause…]
[What are Lu Rang’s ‘girlfriend fans’ thinking?]
[No, no, no, my husband is still very charismatic when he’s actually acting.]
[Lu Rang’s girlfriend fans wish he’d spend more time acting and less time being himself.]
“I… burnt them. Threw them away.” Leng Yan looked at He Yinshao guiltily; in reality, she had just tossed them directly.
“Everyone, the production team will give you paper and pens in a moment. Write down what you want to say and give it to the person you choose,” Director Zhang shouted through his megaphone. Nearby, Assistant Director Xu and the staff were also busy eating skewers.
Seeing Assistant Director Xu eating away without handing out the stationery after a long wait, Director Zhang irritably kicked his stool, sending him tumbling to the ground.
“Ouch! Wait!!”
“Director Zhang, what’s the rush? We haven’t even finished the skewers yet,” Lu Rang waved his hand. His eyes rolled mischievously as his gaze darted back and forth between Leng Yan and He Yinshao.
[Son, what are you up to now?]
[Why do I feel like Lu Rang isn’t planning anything good?]
[It’s fine, it’s fine~]
Shortly after, the paper and pens were distributed to everyone.
“Director, does the content of the envelopes have to be shown to the audience?”
“Uh, no, it’s on a voluntary basis.”
Lu Rang wrote to Leng Yan, Leng Yan wrote to little Kunkun, little Kunkun wrote to Leng Yan, Lu Qian wrote to Lu Rang, and He Yinshao and Xi Mengyao both wrote to Leng Yan.
[Teacher Leng is quite the heartthrob~]
[My god, do this many people like my girlfriend?!!!]
[That’s my wife, when did she start dating you???]
[Is no one interested in the actual content???]
Leng Yan hadn’t expected to receive so many letters. she opened Lu Rang’s first; it contained only one sentence:
“The way she looks at you is far from innocent.”
??? She? Who? He Yinshao?
“Boring.” Leng Yan rolled her eyes at Lu Rang and opened the second envelope.
[What did Lu Rang write?]
[??? Did I just see my wife roll her eyes in my lifetime???]
[Ahhhhh!! I really want to know what was written!!]
Little Kunkun’s envelope:
“Sister! Huggy!”
Leng Yan smiled, picked little Kunkun up, placed her on her lap, and gave her a hug.
Little Kunkun snuggled happily into Leng Yan’s arms, then suddenly looked up and kissed her on the cheek before hiding her face back in Leng Yan’s chest.
[Ahhhhhhh, Wife!!! I want a kiss too!!! I want a kiss on the lips!!]
[Keep it down upstairs, you’re waking up my wife sleeping in my arms!!!]
[Well, congratulations to you, little Kunkun (hmpf).]
[My wife!! I’ll never fight with you again!! Don’t go around kissing other people!!]
Leng Yan hadn’t expected this. The original host wasn’t a good actress and didn’t have many fans, but here she was, gaining so many followers just by joining a travel variety show…
Leng Yan’s ‘girlfriend fans’ even shouted: “Wife, just be yourself and stop acting!!”
The world was truly turning upside down!
Xi Mengyao’s note was very simple: “Thank you, Teacher Leng, for the privilege you gave me earlier.”
“You’re welcome,” Leng Yan said with a smile toward Xi Mengyao.
“What’s ‘you’re welcome’???” Lu Rang waved his hand in front of Xi Mengyao’s eyes. “What did you thank Teacher Leng for??”
“None of your business.”
“…Unwanted man.”
“…”
For some reason, He Yinshao took back the letter she had intended for Leng Yan. “Don’t look at it. I’m not giving it to you anymore.”
“?” Leng Yan bristled slightly. “I don’t care anyway! As if I’d want it?!!!”
Hearing this, He Yinshao tightened her grip on the envelope—the one where she intended to ask Leng Yan who she really was—until her knuckles turned white.
Lu Rang opened Lu Qian’s note. It only said: “Don’t eat grilled bugs in the future…”
“Oh, no can do,” Lu Rang answered honestly. Lu Qian shot him a look, and Lu Rang felt a layer of cold sweat on his back.
“Hmph.”
Leng Yan opened the envelope she wrote for little Kunkun; it was also simple: “Wishing little Kunkun peace, joy, and happiness every day.”
“Now then, is anyone willing to reveal their envelope?” Director Zhang reached out his hand, hoping they would surrender them to satisfy the audience’s curiosity.
His hand stayed hanging in the air for a long time.
No one gave him anything…
“Haha… alright then.” Director Zhang awkwardly retracted his hand.
[I want to know…]
[Me too…]
[…Don’t be like this!!!]
The bullet comments were a sea of wails; they all really wanted to see the contents of those envelopes.
Unfortunately, Director Zhang didn’t have the authority; he had said it was voluntary.
The night’s live stream felt a bit rushed, tinged with regret and a sense of reluctance to part.
“Ha~” Lu Rang stretched lazily and patted Lu Qian’s shoulder. “Are we heading back tonight?”
“I’m fine with whatever.”
“I don’t really want to move, I’m so tired.” Lu Rang leaned back in his chair. “By the way, how much does it cost to rent this villa for a night?”
“This is my villa, it’s free,” Leng Yan spoke up lazily. “If you want, you can stay here until the second phase starts filming.”
Oh right, they almost forgot—Leng Yan was very wealthy.
“Is anyone leaving tonight then?” Lu Rang asked.
“Kunkun and I have to head back. She’s been out for so long, her family will worry,” Xi Mengyao said. “My ticket is for tonight; I have to start filming another short drama tomorrow.”
“Why are you filming short dramas more frequently than I act in movies?” Lu Rang was a bit speechless.
“Tsk, get out of here.” Xi Mengyao took little Kunkun and left for the airport.
Watching the two get into the car, a strange emotion spread through Lu Rang’s heart. He walked over to the directors who were still eating and asked, “Director? When does Phase Two start filming?”
“Not sure, probably in about two weeks,” Assistant Director Xu said muffledly, stuffing a grilled marshmallow into his mouth.
“Missing Teacher Xi already?” Leng Yan looked at Lu Rang with a teasing smile.
“I’m just concerned about my work schedule so I can arrange my time. Don’t start rumors, okay, Teacher Leng?” Lu Rang stood up straight.
“Say what you want. I’m leaving too. The driver will be here in a moment. I have a meeting tonight and a pile of company documents to process.” The smile on Leng Yan’s face faded. She checked her watch and stood up to leave.
He Yinshao wanted to reach out and pull Leng Yan back, but she retracted her hand. In this life, she had nothing yet—how could she hold her back now?
She felt so unwilling… In the first life, she only gained the power to stand against Leng Yan because of He Feng’s obsessive love, which gave her status and power.
He Yinshao clenched her fists secretly, her palms stung by her nails, her eyes reddening.
You’re so useless… He Yinshao.
