After Being Betrayed, I Married a Tycoon in a Flash

Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Ou Linlin Gets the Cold Shoulder

Ye Shu cast her gaze downward. She had already sensed the cold treatment Ou Linlin received from Yaoguang Entertainment, where she worked.

At the end of the day, it all stemmed from her.

It was because Ou Linlin insisted on having her by her side that Ye Xinyu targeted Ou Linlin.

If it had been before, there wouldn’t have been any significant issues, after all, Ye Xinyu was with Ye Entertainment, and the two women were not at the same company.

But now, Ye Xinyu had suddenly become the prospective Young Lady of the prestigious Gu Family in Jin City. Who in their social circle would dare offend the entire Gu Family for the sake of one entertainer?

Who didn’t know that Gu Zuocheng’s mother and Sheng Shaochen’s mother were sisters? The Gu family had the nationally renowned Sheng Family at its back. Who would dare provoke them?

Ye Shu crushed the ladies’ cigarette in her hand, lifted her arm, and tossed it to the ground, and when she looked up again, her eyes rippled with an appropriately polite smile, “Just this once.”

“Alright, alright, my beautiful Ye Shu, let’s go!”

The three of them arrived at Jin City’s biggest clubhouse—Rose Residence.

It was a gathering place for Jin City’s wealthy business magnates.

Despite it being broad daylight, the Rose Residence was already flickering with neon lights.

The dimmed lighting, the bizarre shadows cast by the lamps, and the fashionable hostesses that flitted by added a layer of ambiguity.

One could say this was a breeding ground for romance.

Ye Shu least liked setting foot in such places.

She instinctively followed behind Ou Linlin.

Ou Linlin, however, was unphased. As a popular actress with no background, who had to climb her way to the top step by step, these kinds of places were routine for her.

“It’s fine, I’m here!” Ou Linlin gripped Ye Shu’s hand, patted it lightly, and told her to relax.

But she kept close to Sun Nanjue, fearing that if she slowed down, Director Sun, her great supporter, would slip away.

Perhaps noticing the wariness on Ye Shu’s face, Sun Nanjue didn’t sit down where he usually lingered amongst the throng of women. Instead, he led them through a circuitous route to a secluded place—Shuian Blue Bay.

Here, a gold-diamond VIP perennially reserved the spot, with annual membership fees amounting to millions.

The room, built by the water, was constructed of pure huanghuali wood, exuding an anciently elegant charm.

Ye Shu and the others sat around a tatami mat by the artificial lake. In front of them was a low desk made of pure sandalwood. Sitting cross-legged gave the scene a certain charm.

The bank was overgrown with flora, and the sound of birds and insects lulled them into a calmness.

So much so that when Sun Nanjue poured Ye Shu a drink, she naturally took it and drank.

As for drinking, Ye Shu had picked up the habit about half a year ago. She drank to drown her sorrows; although the sorrows remained, her capacity for alcohol had surprisingly increased, and naturally, so had her craving for it.

Therefore, once this first drink started, it couldn’t be stopped.

As the drinks went around three times…

Ou Linlin was already struggling to hold up, and Sun Nanjue was slightly tipsy, yet Ye Shu kept on drinking energetically.

She kept finding ways to toast them. Sun Nanjue was so amused by the entertaining Ye Shu that a golden gleam began to sparkle in his eyes.

He suddenly raised his glass and clinked it heavily against the wine glass in Ye Shu’s hand, “This is indeed thrilling, it’s got to be you!”

He tilted his head back, downing the drink in one gulp.

“What do you mean ‘it’s got to be me’? You want to sleep with me, Director Sun? Dream on! I’ll tell you, even if you fall here, I won’t!”

Ye Shu stood up unsteadily, actually already a bit tipsy.

Her glass hit against Sun Nanjue’s empty wine glass, “What else can you people do, besides using these sleazy means to manipulate female stars? Linlin is foolish to think that you would be her revival!”
