Chapter 666: Chapter 350 (Grand Finale) Xu Pei, Xu Lin, a fulfilling life, how fortunate.
Xu Qingyan was baffled for almost a minute; all the careful plans he had prepared in his mind were rendered useless.
It had been too long, and he was somewhat slow to respond.
Perhaps it was the high-intensity work, plus the occasional scriptwriting in his study, that made him overlook the speed of communication between the two women.
Just a few days ago, their relationship was rather strained.
But today, they’re talking like they’re bound by the saying “not letting benefits flow to outsiders”—did they…
make up?
He couldn’t help feeling dazed, all his schemes and preparations hadn’t been used at all.
It seemed the two women just needed an excuse to step down.
So, did he inadvertently create that excuse?
Xu Qingyan shook his head, instinctively denying this absurd idea.
Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou…
This was almost like a dream, it couldn’t possibly be real, could it?
After pondering, he turned to the two women on the sofa.
“Each of you give me a slap.”
Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou were both stunned, looking at each other.
“Why should we hit you?”
“Don’t ask, who will go first?
Or should you both do it together?” Xu Qingyan looked somewhat abstract and mentally unsettled, scaring both women.
They were really afraid that the stress of the past month had driven Xu Qingyan mad.
“Are you okay?
Why are you talking nonsense?” Pei Muchan stood up, drew him over, and touched his forehead, “Are you feeling unwell?”
Lin Wanzhou also came over, looking worried as she felt around his body, asking where it hurt.
Xu Qingyan: “…”
The three of them talked for a long time in the living room, almost having their first meaningful long conversation.
They didn’t talk about future relationship issues; instead, they discussed information each had gathered.
Lin Wanzhou: “Yun Yi is failing, its capital chain won’t last three months.”
“How do you know?” Xu Qingyan was curious.
“Sister Yun has a contact in Yun Yi, this information isn’t top-secret, many can sense it, just not in so much detail.
It must be true.”
“This is a good opportunity; who would complain about having too much money?”
Pei Muchan spoke, “Right now, many film and music studios are losing money.
They’re still in the wait-and-see phase; if we can step up now…
it would save a lot of effort.”
Truly, Hamster Pei is thinking of shortening the effort needed.
To become the Queen of Heaven, at least two platinum albums are needed.
If it’s done now, when the usual competition is fierce, there would be far fewer competitors.
Sometimes success is about being well-prepared.
And then waiting for the wind to come.
The meaning behind Pei Muchan’s words was easy to understand; the rideable wind hadn’t arrived.
But a tornado did come, half-depleting the competition, affecting their work and performances.
Before, she and Lin Wanzhou were competitors, but not anymore.
They figured, given the current mess, it’s a done deal.
Why not set aside personal grievances and seize this opportunity to pool resources from three sides?
It’s not that the grievances were minor, but that the opportunity is too rare.
Besides, Pei Muchan suspected that Lin Wanzhou was waiting for her to let go, and with multiple factors combined, it created this slightly odd situation, which wasn’t too strange.
Locked together for a month, despite being separated by several walls, weren’t they all eventually…
Xu Qingyan, while still somewhat dazed, managed to discuss everything rationally until it was all settled.
Only at night after taking a bath did he head unconsciously towards Pei Muchan’s room, but ended up finding both women.
That moment, he felt a sense of peace settling in him.
It was as if something had been fulfilled.
It was the most exhausting night and morning he had spent; Pei Muchan and Lin Wanzhou were extremely tired as well.
At noon, nobody mentioned it.
A little, unnoticed corner; a tiny sisterhood punishment alliance quietly crumbled.
Pei Muchan gave up, calling off the punishment.
Purely tormenting herself.
Lin Wanzhou, three years younger and obviously with more stamina, could still hold out.
In the end, love’s hardship was still hers to bear.
Convinced, thoroughly convinced.
As the night fell.
Pei Muchan got up intending to make space, but was grasped by a terrified Lin Wanzhou.
“Sister, don’t leave.”
“Silly girl, I’m not going anywhere.
Sister is just going to use the bathroom.”
“I’m not stupid, you need to go back to your room and lock it just to use the bathroom?” Lin Wanzhou clung to Pei Muchan, refusing to let go, “I want you to sleep with us.”
“You’re all grown ups, you should stick with him.
I want some quiet rest tonight.” Pei Muchan excused herself.
“I wish I could.” Lin Wanzhou’s face went pale, licking her lips, “Sister Pei, did you say something that set him off?
It feels like he’s misunderstanding something.”
“I didn’t, what else do I have left?” Pei Muchan responded somberly, “Always blaming me, I resign to fate.”
Hearing this, Lin Wanzhou thought hard for a moment.
“Sister, how about…
you have a fight with him?”
Pei Muchan: “…”
Haha, Sister, the most unlucky thing isn’t just being trapped by Mr.
Xu, but also getting wrapped up by you.
No, little sister.
Even in love, you stir things up?
Xu Qingyan glanced at the two tugging at each other, frowning.
He gulped down the medicinal liquor, the slight spiciness momentarily stiffening him.
Here goes, time to fight a crucial battle.
A week went by.
Pei Muchan became especially attentive to any signals of easing restrictions, watching the news for any safe sign.
Hurry and lift the restrictions.
She just couldn’t stand these days anymore.
The New Year arrived amidst this atmosphere.
The three even made dumplings at home, while others in the neighborhood posted about their store-bought dumplings.
After finishing the dumplings, they each video-called friends and family.
Pei Muchan initially didn’t feel like calling, but upon seeing the sparse display of fireworks burst outside…
very few were lit, making the New Year noticeably colder.
What do you think?
