CHAPTER 64: INNOCENT LITTLE RABBIT

"I didn’t..."

"This is making me anxious! Xu Yongchang ruined a female actor just a few months ago. Wen Nuan is no match for him. Go ask if anyone knows Cai Xiaojing’s phone number."

"That girl is very clever. If she senses something’s wrong, she’ll call for help herself," another veteran actor said. "These girls nowadays look pure and innocent, but who knows what they’re thinking? Maybe she’s willing. Old Zhang, just don’t get involved in this. Otherwise, it won’t be worth it if the whole drama gets ruined. Which actor hasn’t experienced something like this?"

...

Casablanca, the most famous bar and KTV in A City.

Many people in the industry came to this bar to drink, sing, and have fun. The interior decoration of the bar was elegant yet exuded a very luxurious extravagance, with dazzling lights and the sounds of revelry.

The dance hall was large, and a band was rushing between gigs, singing the most popular songs of the moment. On the dance floor, teenagers twisted their waists, dancing fiery dances with passionate energy that hit you in the face.

When Xu Yongchang arrived with over ten people from the crew, several investors, producers, and media tycoons had already booked a huge private room. The group walked through the dance hall in a grand manner towards the private room.

Casablanca had dozens of large private rooms with excellent soundproofing and security, rarely experiencing any incidents. As soon as Xu Yongchang led them in, several rather beautiful women were already accompanying the others.

Wen Nuan swallowed hard. Bai Xiuwen was among them, and what surprised her even more was that two of them were quite famous pure and innocent female singers, their on-screen image being pure and beautiful. At this moment, they were wearing bright red halter dresses, revealing half of their thighs, and black fishnet stockings added an alluring charm, making them incredibly seductive. This flirtatious style resembled that of bar hostesses, with none of the noble purity they displayed on screen.

Wen Nuan’s perception was greatly shaken, and the image of the pure and innocent female singers instantly shattered.

They were all dressed exquisitely, with great figures. Wen Nuan, however, was a bit dazed at this moment. The alcohol had worn off. Besides those women, there were also two handsome young men in the private room serving a middle-aged man with a beer belly, the debauchery exceeding Wen Nuan’s imagination.

She was like an innocent little rabbit who had never seen the world, suddenly barging into a group of heavily made-up. Zhuo Bingbing, who had seen more of the world than her, and Chen Hang each supported Wen Nuan as they sat her down.

"Young Master Xu, these are the actors from the ’Pure Lotus’ crew?" a middle-aged man with a receding hairline asked, a cigarette dangling from his lips, smoke curling around him. His lecherous gaze swept over Zhuo Bingbing, Wen Nuan, and several other women.

"Say hello to them. This is Brother Xiong, Brother Qiang, Producer Gao, and Director Zhuang. Be smart, serving them well will be good for you. If you catch their eye, it’ll be your blessing," Young Master Xu said.

The entertainment industry in A City had inseparable ties to the underworld. Among these people, Brother Xiong and Brother Qiang were prominent gang leaders, and few in the underworld dared to provoke them.

Wen Nuan was completely sober now, her face expressionless. Zhuo Bingbing, Chen Hang, Li Chengming, and others greeted them. Wen Nuan opened her mouth, forming the words but making no sound, her palms sweating nervously.

How did she end up in a place like this in such a daze?

"They all look so fresh," Brother Qiang whistled. "But I like it."

Gu Yiting sat beside Xu Yongchang and offered him a drink. Young Master Xu said, "Bingbing, why don’t you and the others go serve Brother Qiang? If you serve him well, this young master will increase your pay this time."

Wen Nuan’s heart skipped a beat. She reached for Zhuo Bingbing’s hand. Zhuo Bingbing smiled at her, let go of Wen Nuan, and with a smile, sat down next to Brother Qiang with two other women. After a while, two wealthy ladies also arrived. Wen Nuan heard them say they were all daughters of prominent families with significant backgrounds, dressed in glamorous attire. But as soon as the private room door closed, they could swear and drink heavily. They liked handsome guys, and Chen Hang and Li Chengming had no choice but to patiently go over and serve them.

These two ladies had quite the temper, especially looking down on actors, their words laced with humiliation. Chen Hang and Li Chengming forced smiles as they offered them drinks.

"Not bad figure, how did you build these muscles? Do you go to the gym often?" One of them impolitely lifted Li Chengming’s shirt to fondle his abs. The people present didn’t feel awkward at all; only Li Chengming felt embarrassed.

Those singers and actors played along without any restraint with the influential people present, kissing, feeding, and toasting, as if it were as common as eating a meal, something they did often.

Zhuo Bingbing was a decent girl, but at this moment, she also forced herself to toast Brother Qiang, enduring her discomfort. As actors, they simply couldn’t afford to offend the people here. If they wanted to continue in the entertainment industry, they had to abide by the rules here.

If she was like this, let alone the others. The entire large private room was like a large-scale... scene. Wen Nuan finally believed Young Master Ye’s words that she had indeed seen little of the world. That’s why only she felt uncomfortable with such a scene. Everyone else had lowered their stance, obeying and catering, while she alone held her head high with pride.

Bai Xiuwen, who was serving beside Brother Xiong, had some past grievances with Wen Nuan. At this moment, she said to Brother Xiong with a smile, "Brother Xiong, look at Wen Nuan. Isn’t this your favorite type? Pure, just like a high school student. It’ll be really fun to play with."

Wen Nuan’s face was expressionless. Her usual smile seemed to have vanished. Poor Miss Wen had been raised in a greenhouse since childhood, spending her days chasing after Fang Liucheng. After the Wen family’s downfall, she hadn’t suffered much before being taken into Ye Feimo’s private domain.

After entering the entertainment industry, with Ye Feimo backing her and Cai Xiaojing’s skillful management, Miss Wen had almost never encountered such a scene. For a moment, she could only watch everything coldly with an expressionless face.

It seemed like a proud and aloof fox coldly and disdainfully watching a group of lustful pigs and vixens making a fuss, but in reality, it was a group of big bad wolves circling a little white rabbit.

Brother Xiong’s gaze swept over Wen Nuan, his vulgar look making every hair on Wen Nuan’s body stand on end.

Young Master Xu stretched an arm over, hugging Gu Yiting on his left and Wen Nuan on his right. "Brother Xiong, this is the one I’ve taken a liking to. You wouldn’t steal someone’s love, would you?"

Wen Nuan looked at the hand across her shoulder, frowned slightly, and strongly resisted the urge to brush it off.

Gu Yiting playfully punched Xu Yongchang. "Young Master Xu, you’re so bad! You’re not satisfied with me, and you still want others to serve you. If Brother Xiong likes her, just let him have her."

She didn’t want Wen Nuan to come and steal Xu Yongchang’s favor from her.
