After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 309 - 303: I Want to See You
Lin Huan helplessly said, "Sister Yueqian..."
An Yueqian interrupted her directly, "It’s decided."
After their cooperation tonight, the relationship between the two became closer. An Yueqian complained, "You have no idea, I was tormented by the aroma of your food here yesterday all day and even woke up hungry last night!! It caused me to have no energy for filming all morning and the director even lectured me."
Qin Yun remembered, she had thought of some inappropriate things at the time.
Unexpectedly, it was because of her cooking...
"So, how do you plan to compensate me?" An Yueqian crossed her arms, her tone unconsciously a bit bossy and arrogant.
Qin Yun thought for a moment and sincerely said, "What do you like to eat? I’ll make sure all your favorite dishes are prepared for tomorrow?"
Before An Yueqian could reply, Lin Huan immediately reminded her, "Sister Yueqian, your figure! Your figure!!"
An Yueqian: "..."
"Eat normally at noon, or just eat a little bit of everything, and don’t eat at night," Qin Yun seriously suggested.
"Makes sense, let’s go with that then!" An Yueqian nodded in satisfaction, ignoring Lin Huan’s almost-crying eyes.
An Yueqian continued, "Qin Yun, you don’t seem to have any scenes tonight, right? That’s nice, I still have to film a night scene which will probably run late."
"Yes, I plan to watch you and Teacher Wei perform a scene together, learn a bit and then head back," Qin Yun said.
"Then I must perform well tonight, cannot let Old Wei overshadow me." As soon as An Yueqian heard Qin Yun was going to stay to watch them film, she was instantly energized.
Thus, Qin Yun got some special tutoring that night, with an award-winning actor and actress plus a renown director personally overseeing.
Qin Yun absorbed a lot of information that night, and when she returned, it was already 1 AM.
She stayed till they finished filming their night scenes and then went back to the hotel to rest.
She had told Pei Yan beforehand that she might return late from the hotel, so he shouldn’t wait up.
After showering, Qin Yun dried her hair, laid on the bed, and sent a message to Pei Yan: [Goodnight.]
Almost immediately, Pei Yan initiated a video call.
Qin Yun answered the call, propped herself slightly up against the headboard, and looking at Pei Yan on the other side of the screen, she asked, "It’s so late, you haven’t slept yet?"
Pei Yan, holding his phone, moved around the room, the camera occasionally shook, but Qin Yun could still see the redness at the corner of his eyes. Pei Yan looked down at the camera and said hoarsely, "Waiting for you, and handling some things in between."
"Did you finish what you were handling?" Qin Yun asked.
"Yes, now heading to bed."
Then the screen shook twice, and when she saw him again, Pei Yan was lying in bed.
As Pei Yan moved, his collar parted wide, revealing a fair piece of skin. Perhaps due to the large movement, one side of his neck showed a slight red.
Qin Yun’s throat tightened, suddenly realizing it had been almost three days since they last saw each other. This was the longest they hadn’t met since she came to this world with Pei Yan.
At that moment, Qin Yun suddenly felt she quite missed Pei Yan.
"Will you come for a visit?" Qin Yun asked.
"Do you want me to visit?" Pei Yan replied with a question.
Looking at Pei Yan on the other side of the camera, Qin Yun thought that she probably did want it, even if it meant being exposed, it didn’t matter.
"It would be alright." Qin Yun said reservedly.
Upon hearing this, Pei Yan suddenly laughed, the amusement slowly spread in his eyes, the cool curve of his lips lifted, and with a hint of late-night huskiness in his voice, he softly said, "Alright, I want to see you."
Watching Pei Yan laugh so flamboyantly, the whole person exuded a captivating charm, Qin Yun’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and her face inexplicably heated up.
Realizing her own anomaly, she shrank more into the blankets, inwardly cursing Pei Yan as a seductive fox demon!!
In the middle of the night, why flaunt such allure!!
It’s also her own fault for being weak; nothing had even happened and she had already surrendered.
"I’m going to sleep. Let’s talk again when you come, I’ll have Yuanyuan pick you up then." Qin Yun pretended to be nonchalant and said.
"Alright, goodnight," Pei Yan said.
Qin Yun hung up without hesitation. She rubbed her ears; although she had already hung up, it still felt like she could hear Pei Yan’s deep and resonant voice around her.
Qin Yun wrapped herself tightly in the quilt to block out all sounds.
Happily, it seemed somewhat effective; maybe because she was tired from filming, Qin Yun soon fell asleep.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Pei Yan had not slept yet. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Little C, can your system retrieve any of my previous things?" Pei Yan, after telling the system to stay away, actively asked.
"Your Highness, you mean to give it to Tang Yun, Your Highness?" Little C appeared excitedly, it hadn’t appeared in a while, and eagerly asked.
"Yes."
"Theoretically, it’s possible but requires a huge amount of Life Value. However, I wouldn’t recommend it, since items from the Immortal Realm aren’t suitable for this era and could cause unnecessary trouble," Little C replied cheerfully before cautiously adding.
"Is there anything available for exchange that is somewhat unique?" Pei Yan pondered and asked.
"Girls love beauty, you can exchange for this type~ The system shop has specific types to choose from, you can take a look yourself," Little C recommended based on its years of experience.
"Just unlock the highest level of access you can, I’ll choose myself," Pei Yan didn’t directly agree with Little C’s suggestion but instead said.
Though Pei Yan didn’t explicitly say, Little C felt somehow discriminated against: "..."
It still silently gave Pei Yan the highest level of access that he could currently reach.
Pei Yan browsed through but saw nothing appealing, not even comparable to his previous worst, nothing approachable.
"Will something like an Immortal Peach also have consequences?" Pei Yan pondered asking.
"If it’s food, the consequences are much smaller, but you can only exchange for one at a time and it requires a large amount of Life Value. As it stands, your Life Value isn’t sufficient to cover even one exchange," Little C honestly replied.
"Does each retrieval require all that Life Value?" Pei Yan asked.
"Each attempt requires a hundred thousand Life Value, and currently you only have over ten thousand Life Value remaining, which means if you want to exchange just once, I recommend living with Tang Yun longer," Little C’s voice was particularly sweet.
Little C continued, with a hint of glee in its voice, "Actually, during your last union with Tang Yun, there was a reward ~ a grand one, but because you restricted my appearance, it wasn’t claimed within seventy-two hours, so the system reclaimed it~"
Pei Yan: "...??"
He briefly wondered if something was wrong with his hearing?
"Wasn’t the reward for completing a hidden task supposed to be automatically granted?" Pei Yan’s expression turned stern.
