Returning to the set, I finished my last scene and successfully wrapped up shooting.

　　After work, the director insisted on throwing me a farewell banquet.

　　I had a few more drinks and, feeling a bit dizzy, went outside to call my manager.

　　I asked her to send an assistant to pick me up.

　　After hanging up the phone, I walked towards the window at the end of the corridor, wanting to feel the cold air and sober up.

　　However, my body was getting hotter and hotter.

　　It felt like there was a fire burning inside me, making my steps unsteady, forcing me to lean against the wall.

　　Memories from my past life suddenly surged up at that moment.

　　It was Lu Huanzhou again.

　　He was determined to lead me to my death, even if I had been cautious and avoided encountering those people from my past life."

　　"He still actively bribed someone to drug me and let those people come to me.

　　I took off the brooch with trembling hands, the needle pierced my flesh, drawing a bloody wound.

　　The intense pain gave me a moment of clarity, and I stumbled towards the elevator.

　　The scream about to escape was forcefully silenced by a large hand.

　　Lu Huanzhou is done for.

　　A cornered dog will jump over a wall.

　　I was afraid you would get into trouble.' He originally wanted to take me back.

　　But the vacation resort was very far from the city, at least a three-hour drive.

　　So, in the end, Shiyu booked a suite on the top floor.

　　And as soon as we entered the room and locked the door, I pulled on his collar and rolled with him on the soft, long-pile carpet.

　　'Brother, brother, help me...' I awkwardly used my teeth to bite his buttons.

　　Shiyu raised his hand to block, and I bit his fingertips.

　　'Slow down, Yinyin,' he said.

　　He didn't dodge, even when he was bitten and blood was drawn, he didn't even furrow his eyebrows.

　　He just hooked my hair and left tender, dense kisses.

　　'Night has just begun.' 'We still have the whole night.' There was no rain outside the window, but the moon seemed to melt, dropping one by one into the clouds.

　　In the end, every inch of my skin was covered with the scent of wormwood.
