Because she saw Xu Yi standing next to Zhao Yuan again.
Xu Yi didn't want things to turn out this way either; she had wanted to quit last night.
But Bao Xiaoxiao tried to persuade her for more than two hours, from the laws of nature to human morality, but in the end she was still unmoved, which made Bao Xiaoxiao so anxious that she almost cried.
Xu Yi reluctantly agreed. Since they changed locations, Zhao Yuan's demonic energy had been almost completely depleted, and she had managed to endure it for the past month. She could just bear with it for the next few days.
Xu Yi only needs to place herself next to Zhao Yuan like an exorcism talisman. The righteous energy of the Heavenly Dao within her body will automatically purify the filth around her without causing any offensive effects. Therefore, Zhao Yuan will not be harmed due to the excessive strength of her righteous energy.
But this approach would make Xu Yi feel incredibly bored.
When she was bored, Xu Yi liked to secretly watch Miss Gu.
A few days ago, when filming, Gu Yueyue was completely immersed in the role, and her joys and sorrows followed the emotions of the character in the play. Xu Yi naturally could not subtly perceive her displeasure.
Today is different.
Xu Yi sensed a faint sadness hidden among the crowd.
What happened to Miss Gu?
Xu Yi frowned slightly. Why was she unhappy?
After the short drama ended, Yin Yu invited everyone to go eat.
"Everyone's worked hard! We're going to Hainalou for a big meal! It's on me!"
The Hai Na Lou restaurant near the Seaside Film and Television City is a major attraction of the city. It brings together various Chinese cuisines, with renowned chefs from different schools personally leading their teams to prepare dishes. There's nothing they can't make if you sign up for it.
Hainalou has been developing better and better in recent years. The prices on the first and second floors are relatively affordable, while the third and fourth floors offer more privacy and a more prestigious feel. The floors above are unique and secluded places that require membership to access, and there are different levels of membership.
The members that Yin Yu had were only entry-level members.
Upon arriving at Hainalou, the group followed Yin Yu to a private room on the fourth floor. When the waiter left, he addressed Yin Yu respectfully, telling the esteemed member to rest well.
Yin Yu's face darkened upon hearing the word "member".
A month ago, she was almost bankrupted by the membership fees, and a few days ago, she was tempted by something and opened a membership to the underworld with Master Xu.
Master Xu said he would make sure the client understood all the membership privileges, and after she fell asleep at night, he would take her to the underworld like a dedicated tour guide.
Who among you can understand her suffering and her pain?
Why would she spend money to suffer? Why think about what will happen after she dies while she's still alive?
Yin Yu looked unwell.
Sitting next to her, Gu Yueyue looked even worse.
"Hey. What's wrong? Does Zhao Yuan owe you money?" Yin Yu nudged Gu Yueyue's arm, glancing at Zhao Yuan while secretly looking at Xu Yi, and whispered, "What's going on with your little one? Why is he always sticking to Zhao Yuan lately?"
Fortunately, the person sitting here now is Gu Yueyue, who has been reincarnated and become a mortal, so the wine glass in her hand was not crushed.
After Yin Yu asked the question, Xia Lan pulled her aside to talk to her.
Gu Yueyue was left heartbroken alone.
Xu Yi naturally wanted to sit next to Miss Gu, but Zhao Yuan had already chosen that spot in advance.
She didn't know how much longer they could stay together. According to her judgment, it would take another thirty-six hours to clear the remaining demonic energy from Zhao Yuan's body.
But the show has already ended, and there's a final interview tomorrow. I don't know if we'll be able to get enough people to participate.
She didn't want to leave the show and wanted to find another opportunity to contact Zhao Yuan privately.
Various delicacies have been delivered.
As expected of Hainalou's products, everyone enjoyed the meal. Even Gu Yueyue, who was feeling confused, depressed, and dejected, was eating quite comfortably.
She quietly comforted herself, telling herself to eat well and not to look up at Xu Yi and Zhao Yuan sitting opposite her.
"Ah—" Chen Sha exclaimed softly, looking apologetically at Zhao Yuan, "I'm so sorry, it's all my fault for being so clumsy. Teacher Zhao, would you like to go wash it first? I'll make it up to you later."
Zhao Yuan looked at the soup stains on his suit jacket and smiled. "No need, no need. It's just a piece of clothing."
"I'll go take care of this." Zhao Yuan got up, straightened his clothes, and left with a troubled expression.
Xu Yi put down her chopsticks. "I'm going to the restroom."
Xu Yi left.
A loud 'bang' rang out.
The sound wasn't loud, but it still attracted everyone's attention.
All eyes turned to Gu Yueyue.
Gu Yueyue immediately clenched her teeth in nervousness, and quickly added, "I...I'm full."
"Huh?" Yin Yu frowned. She hadn't eaten much.
"I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back and rest first. Please enjoy your meal." Gu Yueyue picked up her bag, looking rather disheveled as if she were fleeing in panic.
The crowd was puzzled, but everyone sitting there had seen their share of ups and downs, so it was obvious that something was wrong.
Yin Yu silently put down his wine glass and said in a deep voice, "You guys keep eating, I'll go out and take a look."
Instead of chasing after Gu Yueyue, Yin Yu went to the restroom and blocked Xu Yi.
"PD Eun, is something the matter?"
Yin Yu clenched her fists, almost shoving them into her face, but fortunately she managed to control herself. She was very angry, but she wasn't someone who could be controlled by anger.
"Xu Yi, let's talk." Yin Yu led her aside. There were hardly any people coming back here, making it a good place to do bad things.
"Tell me honestly, do you have feelings for Yueyue or not?"
Yin Yu spoke rather subtly, but Xu Yi still understood.
Xu Yi became wary.
Ever since Zhang Ya explained the entertainment industry to her, she has kept in mind the rule that idols shouldn't have personal feelings for their idols.
Even though Yin Yu is Miss Gu's good friend, she still has to be careful.
Seeing that Xu Yi didn't speak, Yin Yu became a little anxious.
"Do you know how much Yueyue cares about you?" Yin Yu was already getting angry, and she blurted out all the things Gu Yueyue had asked her to do.
She originally thought Xu Yi was a good person, treated Yueyue well, and was someone Yueyue liked, so she was happy to help Yueyue. Naturally, she put a lot of effort into making Xu Yi famous.
So what's going on now?
Xu Yi thought Zhao Yuan was very famous and wanted to curry favor with him.
So Yueyue was just working hard to benefit someone else?
“I, Yin Yu, have been in this industry for almost ten years. I’ve seen all sorts of people and I’ve never been wrong about someone. You don’t seem like an ungrateful wretch.”
"I'm here today to ask you, what exactly is going on between you and Zhao Yuan? Explain yourself clearly, or don't blame me for being impolite."
"You should know that I can make you famous in a short time, and I can also make you have no place in this industry. I, Yin Yu, mean what I say. If you don't believe me, you can try me."
How do you explain that?
Xu Yi thought for a moment, then decided not to beat around the bush.
She's a sword cultivator who loves to be straightforward; asking her to suppress her thoughts and do things would only make things difficult for her.
Fortunately, Yin Yu seems to be a straightforward person.
Xu Yi then explained the whole story of how she clung to Zhao Yuan.
A few minutes later, after Xu Yi finished explaining the last question, he saw Yin Yu take two steps back in surprise.
"Are you Master Xu's senior sister?"
Yin Yu's attitude suddenly changed; it didn't seem like reverence, but rather a mixture of fear and regret.
"If you don't believe me, you can call her to verify."
Yin Yu already believed it in her heart.
After Xu Yi told Yin Yu about the Yue family's courtyard, Yin Yu believed her identity.
"You are Master Xu's senior sister, so are you even more powerful than Master Xu?"
In terms of swordsmanship, she was indeed stronger than her junior sister, but her junior sister's cultivation was very diverse, including music, talismans, formations, medicine, beast taming, weapon crafting, and so on. Although her swordsmanship was better and her cultivation was higher than her junior sister's, she knew fewer things than her junior sister.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Yi replied, "She can't beat me."
"Since you're so amazing, then you..." Yin Yu became a little worried. Would Yueyue's love end in heartbreak?
If Xu Yi were just a newcomer to the entertainment industry, she could still believe that Xu Yi had a spark of affection for a senior in the industry, but the person in front of her was a big shot.
Does this powerful man like her sisters? What's his motive?
Xu Yi blushed slightly, and she struggled to suppress her smile, maintaining a relaxed and normal demeanor. "I admire Miss Gu."
Yin Yu found it even more unbelievable.
How can two people from completely different dimensions fall in love?
What if Xu Yi changes her mind in the future? What can Yueyue do about it? Besides secretly grieving and feeling sad alone, Yueyue has absolutely no control over this relationship.
"You, you, you, you..." Yin Yu thought of the stories often written in novels and questioned Xu Yi, "You wouldn't have come to our Yueyue to go through some kind of love tribulation, would you?"
Xu Yi was stunned. "How did you know?"
"It really is!" Yin Yu's expression changed. "You're not going to kill your wife to prove your Dao, are you?"
"Kill your wife to prove your Dao?" Xu Yi was enraged upon hearing this. "That's something only evil cultivators do. I am a disciple of the Cangyun Sect, a righteous sect under the Heavenly Dao!"
Yin Yu sensed the disdain and contempt in her tone towards the idea of killing his wife to prove his Dao, and a weight was lifted from his heart.
