"Because I'm a woman who can marry and live in your house, so you can do whatever you want with me, can't you?" Yao Xiaoyan felt stifled. That was her first time, but she lost it in a daze!
Dugu Ling raised his head to look at Yao Xiaoyan's angry face. The lights outside the window kept hitting his handsome face, shaking his expression until it looked blurry.
Why did she think that? He clearly wanted to tell her that he would only be with her. Why did things become like this?
He was the one who dragged her to prove the marriage, he was the one who pulled her to live in the villa, even sleeping on the same bed, he was the one who forced her. In his heart, she was more precious than anyone else. It was because the weight was too heavy that he calculated step by step. He did everything he could to hide his intentions and make Yao Xiaoyan stay with him!
Dugu Ling had wanted to speak up several times, but when he looked back and saw Yao Xiaoyan's icy face, he swallowed his words back down his throat.
He didn't know how to explain, and he was even more afraid of it.
Once you're on the set, we're going to have a night show tonight.
Due to Yao Xiaoyan's illness delaying him for a day, coupled with the fact that she had to take part in the commercial, the director was in a hurry as she continued to shout "Hurry, hurry!" on the set.
The staff of the film crew were working back and forth.
"Yao Xiaoyan, today is a show where the male lead confesses to the female lead. It's very important. In a while, you must invest some of your feelings into it. Let's fight for it, do you understand?" The director was so anxious that he ran to the dressing room. While watching Yao Xiaoyan put on her makeup, he began to explain the drama to her.
Yao Xiaoyan was flipping through the script as she furiously memorized all the lines on the script while nodding her head.
The director went to the dressing room next door to communicate with Dugu Ling. However, when he saw his ice-cold expression, he quickly expressed his loyalty after saying a few words, "Shadow Emperor Dugu, I believe in you!"
Dugu Ling ignored him, his face expressionless.
"…" The director felt that the situation had turned serious and asked cautiously, "Dugu Xingdi, are you in a bad mood today?"
Dugu Ling waved his hands, "It's fine, I won't delay the filming!"
Only then did the director relax. "Then I'll go out first!"
Dugu Ling nodded.
Yao Xiaoyan had already finished her makeup and waited. According to the script, the male lead discovered that the female lead was together with the second male lead. The male lead accidentally injured himself while filming.
Yao Xiaoyan looked at the script and suddenly felt that this was indeed a comedy. Dugu Ling had not only lied to her, but had also lied to her!
Dugu Ling walked out wearing a linen housedress. He walked to the bed and looked at the script.
The first shot showed the female lead, who was played by Yao Xiaoyan, hurriedly leaving the male lead to rush back after receiving a call for help.
Yao Xiaoyan entered the luxuriously decorated living room and did not see the male lead. She immediately went up the stairs and lightly knocked on the male lead's door.
"Aiya!" In the room, Dugu Ling's originally cold and steady expression instantly turned exaggerated and funny. He blinked his eyes, rolling on the bed and shouting out like a child, suddenly realizing something and immediately closing his mouth tightly, helplessly curled up his body, pretending to be heavily injured.
Dugu Ling's performance caused the staff to laugh uncontrollably.
It was possible that this Dugu Ling was a rare sight in real life, so everyone found him to be more fun.
The female lead walked into the room and hurriedly stepped forward. She examined the male lead's body from head to toe, but didn't find any obvious injuries.
"Where did you get injured?" Yao Xiaoyan's eyes widened in anger. In that instant, she thought of the past few days of being tricked and her expression became extremely accurate.
"I'm not lying to you, I'm really hurt, right here!" Dugu Ling grabbed Yao Xiaoyan's arm and rolled up her sleeves like a wronged child.
His arm was only slightly swollen, as if it had been touched by something.
Yao Xiaoyan's expression turned even more impatient, "Your injuries are not serious!" Yao Xiaoyan followed the lines and said, "And I'm not a doctor, so it's useless to call me back. If you feel really painful, I'll call an ambulance for you!"
"The heavier injuries are here!" Dugu Ling tightly held onto Yao Xiaoyan's hand without letting go as she pressed on her chest. Her eyes were so tender that it made one's heart ache, "It hurts so much that I can't breathe!"
"…" Only now did Yao Xiaoyan realize that Dugu Ling was the most standard male lead in romance novels. The anger in her heart and the vexation in her heart vanished completely the moment he saw Dugu Ling's aggrieved expression.
"Knead!" Dugu Ling stared eagerly at Yao Xiaoyan.
"…" Yao Xiaoyan almost forgot her lines when she saw the look in the director's eyes. She took a glance at the director and expected him to be shouting "ka ka". However, she did not expect the director to be over there munching on the cane while enjoying herself.
"Like I said, I'm not a doctor. Your pain is a big deal. I'll call an ambulance for you!" Yao Xiaoyan could only follow the script. Just as she was about to turn around, Dugu Ling grabbed her and pushed her onto the bed.
"An Ran (female lead in the movie), are you leaving because that Ai Qing (male lead and second name) is waiting for you outside?" The male lead pressed down on the female lead, while his jealousy exploded.
The female lead who played Yao Xiaoyan turned silent.
"An Ran, was it because you loved me too much in the past, so in this life, do you have to torture me like this?" Dugu Ling pressed down on Yao Xiaoyan's small hand with his fingers interlocked.
A familiar yet unfamiliar electric current pierced through Yao Xiaoyan's heart. She raised her head to look at Dugu Ling and discovered that his apathetic gaze had turned deep and unfathomable.
"I don't care if you love me or not in this life. I love you!" Dugu Ling spoke in a low voice. These words belonged to the male lead of the show and also belonged to him. After he finished speaking, his lips slowly bent down, about to touch Yao Xiaoyan's.
Just as Dugu Ling's lips were about to kiss Yao Xiaoyan, he suddenly turned his face to the side. Dugu Ling's lips were only pressed against the corner of his lips.
However, it was impossible to see any flaws on the camera. It was as if he had actually kissed it.
"Ka, very good, I passed!" the director shouted.
Dugu Ling didn't get up quickly. Instead, he stared intently at Yao Xiaoyan as a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.
Yao Xiaoyan suddenly felt that everyone in the filming crew was looking at them. She reminded Dugu Ling in a low voice, "Shadow Emperor Dugu, the director is already shouting!"
Dugu Ling's eyes twitched, his eyes quivering as he let go of Yao Xiaoyan and turned around to leave.
Yao Xiao Yan held her chest as she sat there, gasping for air.
What the heck was Dugu Ling doing?
After filming the remaining photos, Dugu Ling drove away without waiting for Yao Xiaoyan.
"Yan Yan, I'll send you back!" Bai Xiaobai stepped forward and whispered.
Yao Xiaoyan glanced at her filming schedule and said, "There's going to be a filming tomorrow morning. Plus, it's already so late and it will take four hours to get back and forth. I don't want to mess around anymore. I'll sleep at the hotel tonight!"
Bai Xiaobai was stunned, and she lowered her voice even more. "Is that really possible?" "Then the Shadow Emperor …"
"Sure!" Yao Xiaoyan firmly said.
As if Bai Xiaobai wanted to ask something, Yao Xiaoyan waved her hand and said, "I'm tired. I just want to sleep!"
Bai Xiaobai did not ask anything.
After taking a bath and going to bed, Yao Xiaoyan closed her eyes for a long time before sending a message to Dugu Ling, "I'll accompany Bai Xiaobai at the hotel tonight. I'm not going back!"
Once the message was sent, Yao Xiaoyan immediately shut down her phone.
When Bai Xiaobai saw Yao Xiaoyan get on the bed, her movements became even more cautious, afraid that she would disturb her sleep.
Even though Yao Xiaoyan was lying on the bed, she could not fall asleep for a long time. Her eyes were wide open as she looked out the window. She did not feel sleepy at all until Bai Xiaobai came out from the shower and got into bed to snore.
When Dugu Ling heard the news that Yao Xiaoyan was not coming home, her brows knit together tightly.
He looked at the fresh flowers beside him and grabbed them. Then, he threw them into the trash can.
When he was angry and was about to go home, he passed by the flower shop and walked in. He bought a bunch of flowers and initially wanted to ease the relationship between him and Yao Xiaoyan, but now …
Dugu Ling stood fretfully in front of the window, his mind thinking back to today's kissing scene when Yao Xiaoyan avoided him.
Fifteen hundred years ago, she did not love him. Fifteen hundred years later, she still did not love him!
As Dugu Ling thought like this, a sense of sadness engulfed him.
Fifteen hundred years ago, he used his power to keep her by his side, and in the end caused her soul to return to the Yellow Springs. Even if she was reincarnated, she would be bullied by evil spirits.
"Great movie emperor, is human cake oil good? This time, we have another batch. Do you need more? " His phone rang. Dugu Ling picked it up and sent Wu Mei's message.
Dugu Ling directly made Wu Mei black out.
On the other side, Wu Mei was looking at her phone with a slight frown. She raised her eyes and said to Li Yu, "The Great Shadow Emperor has been dumped by someone!"
Li Yu, who was snuggling in the sofa, was busy replying to the beautiful woman's text message. He was surprised. "How did you know?"
"He's made me black!" Wu Mei shook her phone, "The last time I had a falling out with him was when Linda was the emperor. I saw him lonely for a thousand years, so I kindly found a girl who was identical to his concubine and gave it to her. In the end, she ignored me for 400 years!"
Li Yu shook his head. "Then you're in trouble. You also know that Boss has a big temper. I'm afraid this time you'll have to wait for another 400 years!"
Wu Mei curled her lips, "Who's afraid of him!"
Li Yu intentionally asked, "How could the Boss be willing to forgive you after this?"
Wu Mei's expression changed. Wuu wuu, it can't be, could it be …
When Yao Xiaoyan saw the small cottage in front of her, she knew she was dreaming again. This time around, she had a faint sense of anticipation. She wondered what she would dream of this time.
"How can you treat Brother Leng like this?" A young girl's shrill voice sounded.
Yao Xiaoyan slowly walked over and saw a girl in black quarreling with the young lady in red.
A black light flashed in the girl's hands as a black python coiled around her. She said in a deep voice, "Since you were bewitched by that evil creature to the point that you lost your Yao Family's nature, I will help you kill him. If you kill him, you will give up on him and not hurt Big Brother Leng like that!"
The black-robed maiden turned and left.
The red-clothed girl leaped up and grabbed her. "You aren't his match at all, you …"
"So what if that's not the case? At the very least, it's still better than being a perverted servant!" The black-clothed girl ruthlessly pushed away the red-clothed girl and quickly left. Underneath her, the giant black python was actually riding on clouds and fog.
Yao Xiaoyan felt that her dream was becoming more and more absurd. This was a plot that would only appear in fantasy novels, right? She had never read that kind of novel before so how could she …
As the dream spun around, she saw the black-clothed girl fighting with a black-clothed, silver-haired man. Earth-shaking beast roars constantly echoed out and the entire ground trembled. Everything around was shaking, as if the world within the dream world was about to collapse!
"Yao Ling'er, don't you remember this scene?" Do you want me to help you remember? " Suddenly, a faint female voice rang beside Yao Xiaoyi's ears, "This girl in black is your big sister, Yao Xiaoyi. Have you forgotten? Do you remember that man? "
Yao Xiaoyan felt as if her dream was being manipulated by someone. Someone wanted her to clearly see that man's appearance.
The man's face turned to her, his long silver hair, his reddish eyes, and that …
Ah!" Yao Xiaoyan was jolted awake. The instant she opened her eyes, she discovered that the little azure dragon had dashed out of her bag with a swoosh, disappearing from her sight in an instant.
"Dragon?" Yao Xiao Yan put on her slippers to open the door to the hotel. The hotel's corridor was covered with a scarlet carpet and a green shadow instantly disappeared from the end of the corridor.
Yao Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment before chasing after him in her pajamas.
Before the sky brightened, two figures, one green and one green, were fighting by the artificial lake in the hotel. In the end, the green figure seemed to be at a disadvantage, diving into the lake and disappearing.
The green shadow landed by the lake and transformed into a seven or eight-year-old boy. He was extremely beautiful and heroic as he coldly looked at the gradually turning turbid lake and frowned, "Evil creature, you actually dare to make a move on my head. See if I'll scare you to death or not!"
"Stop boasting. Without the chants of the Yao family, you won't be able to subdue it!" Lying on the reef by the lake, Baili Yi was smoking a cigarette as he coldly said, "Without Yao Xiaoyan's order, you are just a decoration!"
"Yao Xiaoyi?" Long Long Yi looked at Baili Yu, his eyes filled with pleasant surprise, "You're still alive?"
Baili Yi immediately raised his hand, "Ai, don't pretend that you're very familiar with me!"
"Since you're still alive and you see these monsters harassing the master, why don't you stand by and do nothing?" Long Long asked in a deep voice.
"Master? Yao Ling'er personally destroyed you fifteen hundred years ago and caused you to fall into hell. Baili Yi coldly looked at the dragon, "Look at your current appearance. You're clearly the most noble Nine-clawed Winged Golden Dragon. Right now, you're no different from a Minor Serpent. You really hold no grudge!"
Long Long Long's eyes dimmed, "In the end, she is my master. We, the dragon spirits from past generations, acknowledge you as our master. She is the Yao family's dragon spirit and she is the Yao family's dragon spirit!"
"I'm also a spirit daughter of the Yao family. Why didn't you vote for me back then?" Baili Yi said hatefully.
Long Long Yi glanced at Baili Yi, his eyes filled with disdain, "You're even uglier than Ling'er!"
Baili Yi's expression changed. With a wave of his palm, a huge hole appeared in front of Long Long's face.
The dragon looked at the crater and shook his head. "It seems that even though you survived, the Soul-Returning Incense has tied up your spirit energy. You're only a witch now, not a spirit woman anymore!"
Baili Yi bit his lips. In order to obtain immortality, she had used the Soul-Returning Incense. It was also because the Soul-Returning Incense was a yin substance that could counter her Yao Family's spiritual energy, so she didn't have much spiritual energy left. But even so, it was still better than Yao Ling'er who was being abused by ghosts!
"Who did I become like this? Isn't it all because of that good master of yours? " "For a man, she destroyed the entire Exorcist Dragon Clan!"
The dragon stood there, a trace of unspeakable vicissitudes on his young face. "So, you clearly knew that there was someone who wanted to harm Master, yet you still watched without doing anything?"
Baili Yi turned his gaze towards the dark lake, "She deserves to be punished for his crimes!"
The dragon shook his head. "I don't believe that you will not save me, otherwise why would you come here?"
Baili Yi laughed coldly, "How can I let Yao Ling'er take the consequences for herself? Can't I do the same?"
The dragon was silenced by her.
Not far away, a white figure slowly approached. The dragon said in a low voice, "Master is here!"
Baili Yi said coldly, "Then why aren't you wagging your tail at your master?"
Long Long Yi glared at Baili Yi as he walked towards Yao Xiaoyan to welcome his.
Baili Yi let out a cold snort. After confirming that the dragon had gone far, he took out a paper crane and threw it into the gloomy lake. The water in the lake immediately let out a miserable shriek.
"A trash like you is worthy of bullying my Yao family!" Baili Yi snorted coldly, clapping his hands in a relaxed manner as he headed in the opposite direction.
After Baili Yi left, a man in a black suit walked out of the artificial garden. It was none other than Ah Yi. He took out the jade hairpin in his hand and chanted an incantation, calling out to the lake. However, nothing happened.
Ah Yi cried out inwardly as she turned to Baili Yi, leaving in a hurry.
Wearing white pajamas and dragging paper, Yao Xiaoyan stepped on the cobblestone path beside the lake. She softly called out, "Dragon, Dragon!"
"Why are you calling me?" With a cool expression on his face, Long Long walked towards Yao Xiaoyan.
"Dragon, did you …" Yao Xiaoyan asked in a low voice, "Did you help me drive something away?"
Long Long Haochen gave Yao Xiaoyan a sidelong glance, "What is it?"
Yao Xiaoyan couldn't help but say once more, "Since you came from below, you should know what I'm talking about!"
"I was just feeling depressed and came out for a walk. Today, I've been hiding in your bag all day and haven't even gone to the toilet!" The dragon stretched lazily, "Your bag is too small, it makes me feel very uncomfortable!"
Yao Xiaoyan clearly felt that her dream had been manipulated by someone. Furthermore, she had heard Peng's explosive voice a moment ago.
"Oi, little girl, you're dressed like this. Aren't you afraid that others will treat you as a female ghost?" The dragon glanced at the white pajamas on Yao Xiaoyan's body.
Yao Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment. At this moment, a voice and light came from not too far away. It should be the hotel's security guard.
Yao Xiaoyan was still an actress after all. She didn't want to cause too much trouble, so she quickly walked into the alley.
The dragon transformed into a small dragon as it laid on Yao Xiaoyan's shoulder, stretching lazily.
Entering the hotel through the back door, Yao Xiaoyan closed the door before letting out a sigh of relief.
The dragon once again snuck into Yao Xiaoyan's bag, rolling its belly as it closed its golden eyes, looking as if it wanted to sleep and no one would be disturbed.
Yao Xiaoyan sat on the bed and looked at Xiao Xiaolong's body with a slight frown. Could Xiao Long be related to the Exorcist Demon Dragon Clan that Goddess Li mentioned before? Perhaps in a few days, she should pay another visit to the Yin Matchmaker!
But the man in the dream …
Yao Xiaoyan's memories of her dreams were fragmented. However, she knew that her dreams revolved around the red-clothed girl and her beloved man. Just what was the relationship between her and the red-clothed girl? Who was the black-clothed girl Yao Xiaoyi?
Yi walked into Li Tiancheng's study and placed the tarnished jade hairpin on the table.
Li Tian Cheng frowned and asked, "You met him?"
"No, it's a girl dressed entirely in black. I've never seen her before. She's the one who suppressed her soul at the bottom of the lake!" Yi said.
Li Tian Cheng was stunned, "All dressed in black? Could it be her? "How is this possible …"
"Miss, then what about Xue Xianzi? She …" A'Yi asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry about it!" Li Tiancheng said in a low voice, "I will personally bring Xue Consort back!"
Yi nodded.
After Yi left, Li Tiancheng walked to the back of the row of bookshelves and pressed a button. The bookshelf slowly moved, revealing a hidden door behind it.
Inside the secret door, on a rosewood table, there was an exquisite mahogany box. Opening it, a black round object was placed inside. As soon as the box was opened, a burst of strange fragrance immediately wafted towards one's face.
Li Tiancheng took a bit from the top and set it on fire. A black light enveloped the entire study room. After a while, a pool of water appeared in front of the sandalwood table, and a figure slowly emerged from the water.
Water droplets slowly spilled out as a beautiful, pale lady appeared in front of Li Tiancheng. The only difference was that she had no legs. Under her green skirt, it was completely empty.
"Queen Li …" The woman called out in a low voice.
"Is that her?" Li Tian Cheng said softly.
The woman nodded.
"How could she not have died?" Li Tian Cheng couldn't believe it. Back then, when Long Ling was destroyed, the Yao family wasn't, but Yao Ling'er and Old Heavenly Master Yao were all dead. How could Yao Xiao Yi not be dead?
"She smells of the Soul-Returning Incense!" She said.
Only now did Li Tian Cheng come to a realization. She had used her 10th life to find out how to use the Soul-Returning Fragrance. She didn't expect that the Yao family's concubine, the unpampered Yao Xiaoyi, would actually know about the effects of the Soul-Returning Fragrance.
"You've injured your Essence. Go back and rest. Relax, I know what you need the most right now!" Li Tian Cheng said in a low voice.
Xue Xin bowed. "Thank you, Young Master Li!"
Xue Concubine transformed into a wisp of green smoke and drilled into the jade hairpin. The previously dim jade hairpin once again began to emit a mysterious lustre.
It was precisely because Yao Xiaoyi had used the Soul-Returning Fragrance to injure his elemental energy that Xue Concubine did not immediately disperse her soul, right?!
Li Tian Cheng walked up, placed the jade hairpin on his head and slowly walked out of the secret chamber.
The door to the secret room closed, and the bookcase closed.
Li Tian Cheng called out to Yi to come in. "Your concubine's spirit energy has been greatly damaged. You should know what to do!"
Yi nodded.
In the evening, it was school time. A little girl wearing a rose-red dress was standing by the roadside, looking in both directions.
Mom always came at this time to pick her up from school. What happened today? Why was it so late?
"Little sister, are you waiting for your mother here?" A light man in a black suit walked up and asked with a smile.
The little girl instinctively took a step back.
"Little sister, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, can I give you a toy?" As the man spoke, he gave the little girl a small, exquisite red house.
The little girl blinked in curiosity and took the house. Just as she wanted to thank him, there was no one in front of her.
"Huanhuan, mom is late!" After a while, the little girl's mother rushed over and carried the little girl onto the bus.
That night, the police received a call from the mother of the little girl.
Within a few days, there were already nine children missing from this small city. All of them were seven or eight years old. On WeChat and QQ, there were all news of more than a hundred outsiders coming to the city to steal their children, and the disappearance of their children as well as the previous organ sale case. In a few days, the number of disappearances reached over thirty children, and 12 of them had their organs dissected. Soon, some primary school kindergartens were closed, and on the street, everyone wearing black masks and black pants was being stared at.
The city was in a state of panic.
Yao Xiaoyan spent the next few days filming and stayed in the hotel at night.
Yao Xiaoyan and Dugu Ling were a couple in the movie, but after the movie ended, the two of them sat in their respective resting chairs, reading the script and reciting the lines without saying anything unnecessary.
"Yan Yan, what exactly did you do with Dugu Yingdi?" After holding it in for a few days, Bai Xiaobai finally could not hold it in anymore and could not help but ask.
Yao Xiaoyan glanced at the nearby Dugu Ling. Dugu Ling sat there with no expression on his face. After a while, he seemed to notice Yao Xiaoyan's gaze and looked over at his with an indifferent expression.
Yao Xiaoyan lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, "Nothing!"
Bai Xiaobai let out a faint sigh and pointed to a piece of news on his Wechat Moments. "Another child lost. They said there are 45 of them already. Why are there so many lost children these days?"
Yao Xiaoyan's heart skipped a beat as she quickly took out Bai Xiaobai's cell phone. The news from her Wechat Moment had her panicking.
Yao Xiaoyan's cell phone rang. It was Captain Yu.
"Little Yan!" It seemed that every time Captain Yu made a call, his voice was very tired, "Liu Tao's body was found in a ditch 50 miles outside of the city. His whole body is rotten, and we can't even find his DNA! However, he has the phone that you lost on him. If I'm not wrong, it would be Tao. Don't worry! "
Yao Xiaoyan already knew that Liu Tao was dead. She asked, "I know." Are you busy with child disappearances lately? "
Captain Yu paused, "This case is indeed strange, but little Yan, you're not a police officer after all, so I don't want to trouble you this time!"
"Yu Dui, another person reported that the child is missing!" Yao Xiaoyan heard someone shouting from the other end of the phone.
Captain Yu's voice suddenly became much deeper, "I won't say anything else for now. I'll call you when I have time!"
