On his way back, Pei Yan was a bit worried about Su Yao. Since Su Yao wasn't answering the phone, she was probably in a bad mood. Pei Yan turned around and headed for Su Yao's place. He was a bit skeptical about Su Yao's attitude towards this matter and he wanted to figure out what was really going on.
"Yaoyao, open the door. I'm outside. I know who it is." Pei Yan brought the roast goose that Su Yao loved the most.
"Come in. Don't shout out there." Su Yao, in her pajamas, opened the door and dragged Pei Yan into the house.
"Yaoyao," Pei Yan wanted to ask about her and Chu Chao right away, but seeing Su Yao's state, he really didn't want to rip open her wound.
The two sat in front of the TV. Su Yao was watching "First Love", the work from her sophomore year in high school when she first won the Best Actress award. At that time, Su Yao was just a pure high - school girl. Even without makeup, she looked perfectly natural.
Su Yao took out ice cubes from the fridge and put them into the golden whiskey that was already poured beside the wine cabinet. She handed a glass to Pei Yan. Since Pei Yan couldn't drink cold drinks, he put it aside. Su Yao was really in a bad mood today. She didn't even pour room - temperature wine for Pei Yan and just started drinking on her own.
"Yaoyao, about Chu Chao..." After Pei Yan and Su Yao had sat shoulder to shoulder for an hour, the movie was coming to an end.
The An Ning played by Su Yao didn't end up with her first love in the end. On the screen, Su Yao's eyes were welling up with tears, her eyes and nose all red.
After she said the last sentence "We can't be together" to her first love, the movie ended. The melodious music started to play, and the video jumped to an interview with Su Yao. A reporter asked Su Yao what she would do if she experienced such a love in real life. Su Yao thought for a while and replied, "I'd beat him until he can't find his teeth on the ground. I'd beat him every time I see him."
Pei Yan smiled. This was so much like Su Yao in high school.
"I'd beat him until he can't find his teeth on the ground. I'd beat him every time I see him." Su Yao murmured when she saw this interview.
Pei Yan was a bit unhappy inside, or rather, he was jealous. From Su Yao's reaction, it seemed that she and Chu Chao had experienced a heart - wrenching love. And Chu Chao must have done something that made Su Yao run away, but Chu Chao never seemed to let go, and Su Yao hadn't forgotten him either. That's why this incident happened today.
"What on earth is going on between you and Chu Chao?" Thinking of this, Pei Yan's tone couldn't help but be a bit urgent. Su Yao still had another man in her heart.
"It's none of your business. Aren't you lovey - dovey with your A Yue?" Su Yao had drunk a lot of wine. She was starting to lose her senses and couldn't control what she said. She didn't care about Pei Yan's feelings at all.
"What on earth is going on between you and your A Yue?" Su Yao repeated.
"Let's talk about your business now. Do you really not care about your future? Yaoyao, you've shown amazing talent in acting. I don't want you to waste it, and I don't want to see you retire for Chu Chao." Seeing that Su Yao was still avoiding the topic, a certain flame in Pei Yan's heart rose rapidly, but he still patiently reasoned with her.
"A joke. Would I do it for Chu Chao?" Su Yao was also enraged by this sentence.
"Then why are you doing it?" Pei Yan's mind was completely controlled by jealousy. In his opinion, avoidance meant escape, and escape meant lingering feelings.
Su Yao stopped talking. She got up unsteadily and planned to go to the bedroom. But she tripped over the pillow on the floor. Pei Yan got up and caught Su Yao just in time before she fell. In an instant, he was surrounded by her body fragrance and the smell of alcohol, and also by Su Yao's body temperature. Su Yao's body was very hot, like a spark.
Pei Yan's jealousy was finally ignited by Su Yao's body temperature. He pinned Su Yao on the sofa and started to kiss her. Su Yao felt someone kissing her and responded passionately.
"Chu Chao, it's you again." A single sentence from Su Yao made Pei Yan go from being on fire to being frozen.
"Su Yao, do you still love Chu Chao?" Pei Yan knew he wouldn't get an answer from Su Yao. So he carried her to the bedroom. After putting her to bed properly, he drank a whole glass of wine and left Su Yao's place.
On the way, the night wind gradually sobered Pei Yan up. Could it be that Su Yao wanted to stay behind the scenes for him, Pei Yan?
Thinking of this, Pei Yan really wanted to slap himself. What had blinded the famous sharp - witted Lawyer Pei?
In Su Yao's bedroom, "If you dare to show up again, I'll smash your skull."
In a luxurious building, Chu Chao was sitting in his spacious office, looking through his phone. Miao Yue's call came in.
"Hello, Pei Yan came to see me. He said it's illegal to give false testimony." Miao Yue's panicked voice.
"Miao Yue, you're not as calm as you used to be. If you had the courage you had back then when you chased Pei Yan..." Chu Chao said slowly, "Don't worry. Pei Yan will never sue you."
"What should I do next?" Hearing this, Miao Yue felt relieved.
"Don't contact me anymore. I'll send someone else to contact you." After saying that, Chu Chao hung up the phone.
Looking at the endless stream of vehicles on the road outside the window, Chu Chao's thoughts drifted back to three years ago.
"Chu Chao, you jerk. You let Mimi out again. Look, it caught a mouse back again. Ahh, Chu Chao, come and catch the mouse quickly!"
"Chu Chao, buy me a four - scoop ice - cream today. One blueberry, one chocolate, one vanilla and one durian."
At that time, Su Yao was the same as now, except that he couldn't be by her side anymore.
If that incident hadn't happened, Su Yao would have been Chu Chao's wife by now. Because of that incident, he was driven away by Su Yao and was hated by her. But sooner or later, Su Yao would be his.
Chu Chao opened his phone and dialed Wu Tian's number.
"Hello, Wu Tian. Here's what to do about Yuyan Entertainment."
After the lawyer's letter from Pei Yan's studio was sent out, the public opinion about the "Su Yao as the other woman" incident turned to the view that Su Yao was the innocent victim.
Pei Yan looked at the online comments. Although he could catch a temporary breath, the other side's counter - attack would come in a few days. He had to be prepared.
Just as Pei Yan was about to turn off the computer and get something to eat, Sun Yang shouted. It turned out that the little fresh meat with a large following, Chu Dianlan, announced in a live broadcast that he was going to sign with Su Yao's studio.
Suddenly, there were a lot of comments on the Internet. Fans who had been concerned about the contract all supported Su Yao's decision to set up her own studio, and Chu Dianlan's fans also supported their idol's decision to sign with the Best Actress. Some netizens thought they deliberately released this news to promote their new drama. It seemed that Chu Chao still had no way to deal with Su Yao.
Pei Yan wasn't sure how long this wave of good news would last. He had to seize the time.
Thus, this round became a showdown between Pei Yan and Chu Chao. The two of them launched a battle for the goddess for Su Yao. Both were determined to win, and the final outcome was also unexpected.
