Chapter 34

Shen Shuyao lowered her head with tears dripping down her legs, and said hoarsely, "It was my fault, I shouldn\'t have gone to the dinner party. If I hadn\'t gotten drunk, I wouldn\'t have walked into the wrong room..."

Ji Nian grasped the keywords "walked into wrong room" and suddenly understood. The plot has arrived! The book wrote that the female lead was forced by her agent to go to a dinner party and got drunk by the lecherous director.

By a stroke of bad luck, she walked into the wrong room and encountered the drugged tyrannical boss male lead, and that was how the two of them began their relationship...

"When did this happen?" Ji Nian was excited that the plot has arrived, but still asked with a concerned look on her face.

Shen Shuyao looked up, despair in her eyes as she looked at the woman and said painfully, "Last night."

"Should we report this to the police?" Ji Nian asked. Her heart was thumping, afraid that the female lead would really go report this.

"Absolutely not!" Shen Shuyao said agitatedly, fear in her eyes. "Besides...I\'m an actress, I can\'t let scandals get out..." After finishing, Shen Shuyao broke down crying.

Ji Nian comforted her, gently patting her back, trying to get her to calm down.

Shen Shuyao leaned her chin on the woman\'s shoulder, her whole body leaning against her embrace. Extremely aggrieved, she said, "I know we\'re all adults, but I...I just feel awful."

"It\'s okay. Since we can\'t solve this by going to the police, we\'ll just treat it as a one night stand. What did the man say?" Ji Nian consoled.

Shen Shuyao was stunned for a moment. She suddenly recalled the cold and aloof face of the man when she woke up that morning, his deep and profound eyes filled with shock. She recognized that man, he was a famous figure.

"He told me to take a check," she murmured softly, confusion in her eyes.

Ji Nian was shocked. She silently admired to herself, how come no man has given her a check? She suddenly felt very envious.

"Did you take it?" Ji Nian asked.

Shen Shuyao shook her head angrily, "I don\'t want it! What does he take me for?!"

Ji Nian shouted internally, don\'t give it to her! If she remembered correctly, the novel wrote that the male lead had given 3 million!

"You did the right thing!" Ji Nian righteously said, "How could we submit to money! You were right to reject it!"

Shen Shuyao was confused by her words. Wiping the tears from her face with a tissue, she nodded silently.

"Are you feeling a bit better now?" Ji Nian asked.

Shen Shuyao\'s eyes were still red. With an aggrieved look, like a frightened little white rabbit, she said softly, "Thank you."

Ji Nian saw Shen Shuyao\'s messy hair. She reached out to tuck the strands behind Shen Shuyao\'s ears, and said, "Why be so polite between us? Don\'t be upset anymore."

Looking at the woman\'s gentle demeanor, Shen Shuyao felt a warmth wash over her. She didn\'t know why, but she trusted the woman deeply from the bottom of her heart. She could tell her something so private without any hesitation.

Just then, a ringtone broke the tranquility of the room. Shen Shuyao looked over - it was her agent Elder Sister Ling calling. She didn\'t want to answer, but had no choice.

"Hello, Elder Sister Ling."

"Are you home? Director Lin called me last night. Why did you leave by yourself without letting me know?" Elder Sister Ling\'s tone carried accusation.

Shen Shuyao\'s eyes suddenly turned cold. She said, "Do you know what Director Lin wanted to do to me?"

The other end of the phone paused in shock, before answering, "Director Lin promised to give you good resources. Isn\'t that good? The TV drama you were in yesterday received great reviews and is becoming popular online now."

"Elder Sister Ling, you\'ve gone too far! If you keep this up, I\'ll have to lodge a complaint against the company!" Shen Shuyao was very angry.

"Shen Shuyao!" Elder Sister Ling\'s tone turned cold over the phone. She yelled, "I hope you can understand your place! Competition is intense in this industry. If you don\'t aggressively climb upwards, opportunities will go to others instead!"

"I don\'t want opportunities like this!" Shen Shuyao hung up the phone and tossed it aside. Her eyes were filled with anger.

Ji Nian knew the plot. The female lead\'s first agent wasn\'t a good person. Overtly and covertly, she wanted the female lead to trade her body for better resources.

"What kind of agent is this, engaging in such dirty deeds." Ji Nian couldn\'t help but criticize.

Shen Shuyao looked very aggrieved, her eyes red. Angrily she said, "The company won\'t care too much about this either, they tacitly allow these things to happen in private."

"It\'s okay, no one can force you if you don\'t want to. Don\'t get angry over these irrelevant people." Ji Nian consoled her.

At this time, Shen Shuyao was really tough, even daring to argue with her agent. If she hadn\'t been forced to attend that dinner party, nothing would have happened last night. The more she thought about it, the more stifled she felt.

"You must be tired too. Do you want to go rest first?" Seeing Shen Shuyao\'s somewhat weary expression, Ji Nian asked.

Shen Shuyao looked over with a pair of tearful eyes, red from crying, filled with innocence and grievance. She asked, "Are you leaving?"

Ji Nian was startled. She asked, "Do you want to be alone then?"

Shen Shuyao shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes again. She answered, "I\'m scared alone."

"I\'m not leaving, I\'ll accompany you today." Seeing her helpless state, Ji Nian coaxed, "Go sleep for a bit first, I\'ll be with you."

Shen Shuyao nodded. She held on to Ji Nian\'s hand tightly, slowly walking to the bedroom. Opening the door, she lowered her head and said, "Stay with me."

Ji Nian was stunned for a moment but nodded. The female lead needed company! In the future there would be wealth and prestige, she had to cling on to Shen Shuyao\'s coattails.

"Alright, I\'ll accompany you."

At this time, the hot search topics on the internet were still ongoing. But at the same time, a new topic was also added.

One was the continued popularity of the "Ordinary Road" video. The other was the actress who played a supporting female role in the adapted drama of a wildly popular novel, she had become famous overnight.

At this moment, the name Shen Shuyao was trending beyond just the circle of fans, because of her sweet image and positive role in the TV drama. She received countless praise overnight, attracting many original novel fans to watch.
