Chapter 17
Yu Shilan was true to her word. She really shamelessly followed Wang Yun back to the hotel.
Since Wang Yun already “knew” Yu Shilan’s sexual orientation, naturally, she could not invite the wolf into her room. The moment they reached the hotel entrance, she jogged all the way inside and found the young woman at the front desk, asking to open a new room.
The front desk girl smiled sweetly, her voice gentle. “We don’t have any standard rooms or queen rooms left. There’s one triple room left, but the room’s light is broken and hasn’t been repaired yet. Aside from that, there are premium suites. They happen to be discounted right now, only 998 yuan a night. Miss, would you like to book one?”
998 yuan for one night!
And she said “only.” Why didn’t they just rob people?
Wang Yun immediately waved her hand. “No need, thank you.”
Tao Xiaomei was strong and helped Yu Shilan carry her suitcase. As for Yu Shilan herself, she did not torment Wang Yun anymore. Aside from wearing a crossbody bag, she carried her travel bag herself. After entering the hotel lobby and sweeping her gaze around, she saw Wang Yun by the elevator. Yu Shilan was actually a little puzzled.
Could it be that Wang Yun really wanted to sleep in the same room with her tonight?
Although Yu Shilan only felt that Wang Yun was getting revenge for her stealing the role, and did not think Wang Yun truly believed she was a lesbian, the two of them were not very familiar with each other after all. Sleeping together at night would really be somewhat awkward. She had only been trying to scare her. Her original plan had been to open another room.
Tao Xiaomei, however, understood Wang Yun well enough. Seeing that Yu Shilan wanted to go to the front desk girl, she directly stopped her and said, “Yunzi must have already asked. There probably aren’t any rooms left. You know, this hotel is right beside B City’s filming base, and B City’s traffic is so bad. Even actors who have homes here mostly stay in hotels, so rooms are definitely tight.”
Oh. Then it seemed this was heaven’s will.
The three of them took the elevator up to the fifth floor. Wang Yun did not bring Yu Shilan to her room. Instead, she passed by her own room and kept walking farther inside.
Tao Xiaomei was not willing to sacrifice her own body for Wang Yun. Once she reacted, she immediately grabbed Yu Shilan. “Miss Yu, we’re here, we’re here. This is it. Yunzi is staying in 508.”
After being stabbed twice in one night by her own assistant, Wang Yun said with a smile that did not reach her eyes, “Miss Yu must be tired after sitting on a plane for so long. How can she sleep badly tonight? I snore and grind my teeth when I sleep. I’m very noisy, so Miss Yu will sleep in your room tonight, and you can sleep in mine.”
Tao Xiaomei held onto Yu Shilan and refused to let go.
Yu Shilan was actually willing to stay in a room by herself, but Tao Xiaomei was clearly unwilling, and Wang Yun’s unwillingness was even more obvious. Thinking of the wonderful thing Wang Yun had done, Yu Shilan did not mind continuing to “torment” her, so she stopped as well.
“It’s fine. I sleep deeply at night. Snoring and teeth grinding won’t bother me,” she said with a smile.
Wang Yun gritted her teeth and forced out a smile. “I really am very noisy. You haven’t heard it. If you did, you definitely wouldn’t be able to stand it.” As she spoke, she glared at Tao Xiaomei. “Xiaomei, hurry up. Stop dawdling!”
Tao Xiaomei wore a bitter expression and finally said, “Yunzi, I… there’s someone in my room.”
“Wh-what?” Wang Yun nearly bit her tongue.
Tao Xiaomei did not dare say who the person in her room was. She only said, “…It’s a man. So…”
So she could not drive that male comrade away, and Yu Shilan was even less likely to share a room with a man. Wang Yun could only be wronged. Wang Yun was so angry her face turned green. Tao Xiaomei was her personal assistant, and the two of them were almost always together. How had she not known when Tao Xiaomei had started dating?
She had even brought her boyfriend here!
Wang Yun walked back angrily, glaring fiercely at Tao Xiaomei with her eyes, telling her that she would definitely settle accounts later.
Yu Shilan entered the room and lazily sat down on the sofa. Watching Tao Xiaomei drop the suitcase and flee in panic, she could not help thinking that this really was heaven’s will.
It was already very late. Although there was no filming tomorrow, when there were no night scenes, female celebrities were still better off sleeping early to nourish their skin and complexion. However, after Wang Yun glanced at her own bed, she still decided to let Yu Shilan shower first.
Yu Shilan had no objections either way. She got up, opened her suitcase, took out underwear and a bathrobe, then entered the bathroom.
Her calm, open manner made Wang Yun’s heart pound wildly. She had come prepared! Wang Yun hurriedly lifted the blanket, rolled up the little camisole nightdress she usually wore to sleep, and stuffed it into her suitcase. Then she pulled out a gray tracksuit with long sleeves and long pants.
After that came a long wait.
Her hands tightly gripped the tracksuit, and her eyes stared straight at the bathroom door. Wang Yun was extremely afraid that Yu Shilan would be shameless and come out naked. That would be the scariest. Second scariest would be if she came out wearing only underwear. Third would be if she wore underwear but came out with her bathrobe open.
Wang Yun kept imagining things. After only a little while, she fiercely shook her head, because she felt as if she had actually seen those images. It was truly—blinding!
The so-called long wait, according to the theory of relativity, was actually only a short fifteen minutes for Yu Shilan. She showered quickly. Because she had to sleep with another person, she had not originally wanted to wash her hair, but she specially washed it anyway. Then she dried herself, put on her underwear, wrapped her bathrobe tightly around herself, rubbed her hair, and opened the door.
The moment the door clicked, Wang Yun abruptly stood up. Perhaps because she had imagined too much, seeing Yu Shilan wrapped up tightly actually made her feel a little unused to it.
“You, you’re done?” she asked, stammering.
“I’m done.” Yu Shilan did not think much of it and said openly, “Go wash. Wash up early and come sleep early. Don’t you still have work tomorrow?”
Tao Xiaomei had said these words countless times before, and Wang Yun had never felt anything. But when Yu Shilan said them today, she felt those words were impure, as if they definitely carried some kind of hint.
She hugged the tracksuit tightly and did not even look at Yu Shilan before entering the bathroom.
She showered and washed her hair, wasting more than half an hour. But when she thought of Yu Shilan outside, who might already have stripped naked and be lying in bed waiting for her to come out, Wang Yun felt that she had still washed too quickly.
But no matter how slowly she moved, she still had to go out eventually. When her fingers had soaked until they were wrinkled, she could only come out.
Before coming out, she had imagined many possible situations, but she absolutely had not expected that Yu Shilan was too tired. After she came out, what she saw was Yu Shilan already lying down asleep.
It was like gathering all the strength in your body while waiting to be hit, only for the other person to not even touch you in the end. All that strength had been gathered for nothing.
Wang Yun’s expression instantly became very ugly. It was clearly something she should feel lucky about, yet right now, it left her unbearably depressed. But in the end, she was still afraid Yu Shilan might suddenly unleash her beastly nature, so she did not dare wake her up. She took the hair dryer to the bathroom, dried her hair there, then quietly came back, turned off the lights, and got into bed.
Yu Shilan was a light sleeper. Just now, she had been tired, and she had been listening to the steady sound of water, so she had unknowingly dozed off. Once Wang Yun turned on the hair dryer, she woke up. Watching Wang Yun carefully turn off the lights and get into bed, Yu Shilan curved her lips and smiled.
This person was not entirely without merit. At the very least, she did know how to respect and take care of others.
Yu Shilan slept very well that night, but Wang Yun suffered. She slept facing the opposite direction, and despite the air conditioner being on in the room, she was still wearing a lot. Afraid of waking Yu Shilan, she slept sideways near the edge of the bed the whole night and did not dare move. By the time Yu Shilan woke up full of energy at ten the next morning, Wang Yun not only had dark circles under her eyes, her whole body was so stiff she did not dare move.
Yu Shilan smoothed her long hair. Seeing that Wang Yun had sat up, she yawned and smiled at her. “Morning. Did you sleep well last night?”
Wang Yun tried hard to squeeze out a smile, but she really was in no mood to talk, so she only nodded.
Yu Shilan lifted the blanket and got out of bed. Her two snow-white, slender legs were exposed in front of Wang Yun’s eyes, but Yu Shilan herself did not care. Pointing at the bathroom, she asked Wang Yun, “Don’t you have scenes today? Is it late now? I just checked, and it’s already ten.”
Wang Yun had no choice but to speak and lied, “Oh, I received a text this morning saying the morning scenes were canceled. They’re only filming in the afternoon.”
Yu Shilan said, “Is that so? Perfect, then. Last night, you treated me to late-night snacks, so today it’s my turn to treat you. I’ll treat you to lunch. I’m familiar with B City. Whatever you want to eat, we’ll eat somewhere nearby.”
Eat again? Hurry up and leave!
Wang Yun shook her head and declined. “No need. Don’t be so polite. I still have filming this afternoon, so I don’t have much time at noon either. Let’s talk about it another time.”
Yu Shilan smiled and said, “Another time will be another time. But today, I came because there’s something I’d like your help with.”
“What could I possibly help you with? I’m just an eighteenth-tier little artist. I don’t have any ability at all.” Wang Yun did not want to listen at all.
“Oh, is that so.” Yu Shilan looked at Wang Yun and said with some regret, “I had originally wanted to ask you about Amy from Qinglin Entertainment. Since you don’t know, then…”
“Amy from Qinglin? You want to join Qinglin?” Wang Yun was so surprised that she directly interrupted Yu Shilan.
