Help! The Seductive Villain Chases Me Everyday to Expose My Other Identities!-Chapter 2
Chapter 2: Battle In The Shower
The man stiffened for a moment before pushing Shi Ran away.
His perfect hands that looked like a work of art, touched her fair neck and rested on the artery.
As his knuckles brushed across her skin, he whispered softly like a lover. “Tell me, who sent you here, huh?”
The man’s hand slid over her beautiful collarbone and continued down around the shoulder, circling her smooth, tender arm.
Despite such a flirtatious gesture, his gaze still looked pure. Only his smile seemed to have widened.
His palm eventually stopped at her wrist. The man suddenly retracted his hand and grabbed her forcefully. His grip was so strong that it seemed like he wanted to crush her hand.
Then, he pulled her closer.
Panting, Shi Ran looked up.
The surrounding mist made the setting even more amorous as their eyes met.
However, the sharp pain in her wrist reminded her that this was not a scene of spring and autumn.
This man was extremely dangerous!
She regained her focus as she stabbed the tip of the pen into her thigh. The smell of blood started to spread through the water.
The man raised his eyebrows, looking surprised.
“I apologize for the accidental intrusion,” she said hoarsely.
The man ran his fingers slowly over her wrist.
“Oh? Accidental intrusion?”
Shi Ran didn’t want to explain.
The feeling of being stared at like this felt like having a knife held against her back. She had to leave now.
However, as soon as she got up, the man gripped her wrist even harder, not intending to let go.
She narrowed her eyes and leaned forward suddenly. Her eyes were like silk, and there was a hint of water in them which made them look sparkling and seductive.
“Sir, do you really not want me to leave?”
Her soft words brushed past the side of his ear.
And her fingertips tapped across his solid chest.
The man stiffened slightly.
In the next second, Shi Ran pulled out the pen and stabbed at him!
The man immediately backed away!
“Pa!”
Water splashed everywhere.
There was a bright flash as the man dodged to the side. When he looked up again, he could only see the corner of Yaoyao’s clothes and the pen that had been pierced deeply into the wall.
The bathroom had become empty.
Chu Jinchen froze for a moment before the corners of his lips slowly curled up.
Interesting.
At that moment, there was another knock on the door.
“Third Young Master, Old Master is calling.”
He got up, picked up the white bathrobe from the wall and wore it before stepping out.
Chu Jinchen had just stepped out of the door when his assistant handed over the phone with both hands. When he looked up, he could see the dark red mark on Chu Jinchen’s neck.
The assistant’s eyes widened in shock and immediately turned his head back towards the open bathroom. ‘Was there a woman in there just now?’
After Chu Jinchen hung up the phone, he turned his black eyes to the balcony. He then walked over and examined the balcony next door. He could see extremely light footprints on the railings.
“Find out who lives next door,” Chu Jinchen asked calmly, his hand on the railing.
“Next door? She’s a female celebrity. She just became a trending topic.”
“Third Young Master, this is the trending content.” The assistant said as he handed him a tablet with the trending page on it.
Chu Jinchen quickly scanned the contents before landing on a name.
... .
Shi Ran was wearing a pure white custom-made shirt with a pair of black pants that she had taken conveniently earlier on. Her shirt was tucked into her Western-style pants, and the bottom of her pants was rolled up to her ankles which made the look pretty decent.
Shi Ran then opened the door of a black Volkswagen that was parked at the entrance of the hotel and got in.
She was wide awake by then. The lingering effect of the drug had worn off thanks to the pain.
Having survived the hellish training as the heir of her family in her previous life, this pain was child’s play to her.
As soon as she entered the car, she could hear her manager mocking her before she even looked up. “Shi Ran, you’re really something. You’re always trending on the internet with some guy every other day.”
The manager then threw the notebook in her hand at Shi Ran and said impatiently, “I’m sending you to a live interview show now. This is the script. Memorize it and don’t make another mistake!”
Shi Ran casually flipped through the script, reading through quickly and sneering at the same time.
In the novel, the original owner of this body was photographed by reporters meeting three men in a hotel. After that, she was forced by her manager to participate in a live interview. After the interview ended, the character had once again become a trending topic. She was just like a street rat that everyone wanted to step on.
The manager led Shi Ran to the backstage dressing room. As soon as she entered, a cup flew towards her.
She waved the script in her hand and the cup soared back in the direction it was thrown from.
“Ah!” Shi Wenfei screamed as she stood up, her face white with fear.
The glass had exploded a few centimeters from her face. When she saw the culprit, Shi Wenfei’s face twisted. “How dare you throw a glass at me!”
However, when she saw Shi Ran’s manager, she immediately put on a pitiful look. “I was really frightened just now. Elder Sister, why did you throw a cup at me?”
Shi Ran sat down on the sofa in the dressing room and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. “I merely slapped the flying cup out of my way.”
Shi Wenfei suppressed her anger and smiled at the manager. “Sister Qing, I have something to tell you. You-”
“You two talk.” The manager immediately knew better and retreated.
Only Shi Ran and Shi Wenfei were left in the lounge so Shi Wenfei stopped pretending.
“You!” Shi Wenfei pointed angrily at Shi Ran and demanded, “Where the hell did you go tonight?”
“You’re not the one who had someone take me to my hotel room?” Shi Ran asked.
“You’d better not play any tricks. I’m the biological daughter of the Shi family. Now, you’re just a dog raised by our family. Be sensible and don’t covet what doesn’t belong to you!”
With a scornful smile, she picked up the script on Shi Ran’s lap and flipped through it. She raised her chin and looked down at her. “I suppose you haven’t been in touch with your sickly brother for quite some time?”
Shi Ran’s eyes narrowed.
The original owner of this body had a twin brother and they always depended on each other. When they were young, Old Master Shi had adopted both of them.
However, because her younger brother had leukemia, he had been sent overseas for treatment since he was young. The medical fees were expensive, and the Shi family had always been the one paying for it.
After Old Master Shi passed away, her younger brother’s medical fees fell on her adoptive father.
Shi Wenfei had taken advantage of the fact that the original owner of this body cared about her younger brother and had threatened her many times with that. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
Shi Wenfei sat opposite Shi Ran, crossed her legs, and fiddled with her red manicured nails as she said casually, “You’d better follow the script for the interview later and think before you speak. Otherwise, if that sickling dies because his medicine is stopped, you, as his sister, will be the one to blame.”
Seeing that Shi Ran was silent, thinking that she was afraid, Shi Wenfei smiled even more smugly. Her laughter was sharp and ear-piercing. “You are afraid now? Then do as I say. Go along with whatever I say. What an idiot. Think of that sickly person. His life is in your hands!
The show is about to start, so you don’t have to put on makeup. It’s useless even if you do.” Shi Wenfei’s eyes were like knives as they swept across Shi Ran’s bare yet beautiful face. However, she quickly revealed a sly smile.
So what if she was beautiful? After tonight, she would only be known as a rotten slut!
The show officially began with an audience already streaming the live broadcast. The bullet screen started to get lively, but this time it was different from usual.
[Damn it, how can this loser be on the same show with Wenfei?]
[Is the production team blind? They actually invited Shi Ran. What could this idiot celebrity know?]
[The standards of a good show like this have actually become so low. There’s no man on this show either. Why is Shi Ran here? To ride on Feifei’s popularity?]
Amidst the curses, the host finished his opening statement.
“Now let’s welcome everyone’s favorite Wenfei and Shi Ran!”
As soon as the two of them went on stage, the comments began to flood the screen.
[Feifei! Feifei is so beautiful!]
[Feifei is too beautiful! She’s simply crushing everyone!]
[I’m not exaggerating. I think Shi Ran looks better than Wenfei.]
[Shi Ran bought bots to support her, right?]
Under the barrage of comments, Shi Wenfei and Shi Ran sat down on the soft white sofa one after another. Opposite them was the host, dressed in a trendy outfit.
The host first introduced Shi Wenfei and Shi Ran briefly before asking some questions. The entire time, he asked Shi Wenfei questions, ignoring Shi Ran like she was air.
Even though the comments were mostly praising Shi Wenfei, Shi Ran could not be bothered. She was just happily leaning back in her chair and even yawned lazily in front of the camera.
The scene was captured by the camera, and the bullet screen was filled with taunts again.
“Wenfei, many people say that you’re a trending topic. You can be trending for almost anything. What do you think about this?”
Shi Wenfei sighed helplessly. “Frankly, I don’t mind being on the hot search list to increase my popularity, but sometimes things can go wrong. Like the hot search the day before yesterday.”
“Are you referring to the scandal between you and Young Master Zhou?”
“Right.” Shi Wenfei nodded and looked at Shi Ran who was sitting beside her with a sweet smile.
“Although I was only acknowledged by the Shi Family and brought back later, my sister and I had hit it off at first sight. We’re extremely close and I actually have a really pure relationship with my future brother-in-law. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the person involved.”
She pretended to be caring as she placed her arm on Shi Ran’s shoulder and said coquettishly, “Big Sister, quickly tell everyone what’s going on with Brother-in-law and me. I’m about to be scolded badly by the netizens!”
The sickling was still in her hands. Shi Ran would definitely not dare to resist her.
As long as Shi Ran helped her clarify, she would be able to put all the blame on Shi Ran according to her original plan and when that happens, she would never be able to turn things around.
At that time, not to mention the entertainment industry, even the Shi family would not allow this disgraceful Shi Ran to remain in the family!
