The Canary and Little Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 14
The first scene of “Starlight for You” was a night shoot. After helping Bo Shuyi and Lin Nanyun unpack their luggage, He Hua went out to buy ingredients and daily necessities, as she planned to cook a proper dinner.
After He Hua left, Lin Nanyun urged Bo Shuyi to take a nap. “I do not know how long the filming will last tonight,” she said.
Bo Shuyi changed into a hazy blue silk slip nightgown. Her skin appeared radiantly white, and a small red mark near her shoulder looked like a red plum blossom in the snow, both enchanting and moving. She lay lazily on the soft bed and let out a light yawn. Her thick, dark eyelashes lowered over her half-closed eyes, and a misty, shimmering light rose within her pupils.
Bo Shuyi patted the space beside her. Her dark eyes grew moist, carrying a hint of a pitiful, delicate charm. “Nanyun, come and sleep with me.”
Lin Nanyun was dazed for a moment. Her eyes wandered, not daring to look at the soft curves rising and falling beneath the exquisite collarbone of Bo Shuyi. Even though she possessed the same features herself, Lin Nanyun could not help but feel a wave of bashfulness upon seeing them.
She took a deep breath, looked at her toes, and said, “Close your eyes and rest first. I will join you after I change into my pajamas.”
The air conditioning in the room was quite cold. Bo Shuyi draped the quilt over her shoulders, gave a soft “Mhm,” and closed her misty eyes.
Lin Nanyun breathed a sigh of relief, though her heart continued to thud loudly in her ears.
[Host, with such beauty before you, I think you could take a step further.]
Lin Nanyun was shocked. She thought that Shuyi was only nineteen years old and that the system had become impure.
[Tsk. Nineteen years old is an adult.]
Lin Nanyun blushed. She told the system that it was forbidden from making explicit comments.
[Okay.]
The system thought to itself that there would come a time when she could not help herself.
Lin Nanyun found her pajamas and changed her clothes while facing away from Bo Shuyi. Her pajamas consisted of a small camisole and shorts. The white silk fabric was printed with small red strawberries. The V-neckline was somewhat low, leaving nothing of her good figure to the imagination; she looked cute, playful, and sexy.
Bo Shuyi suddenly opened her eyes after Lin Nanyun finished changing. A dark color flickered in her eyes as she glanced at the long, slender legs of Lin Nanyun.
Lin Nanyun turned around and met the gaze of Bo Shuyi, which gave her a start. Fortunately, Bo Shuyi was already using the quilt to cover the areas that made the heart of Lin Nanyun race. Lin Nanyun composed herself, walked to the other side of the bed, climbed in, and burrowed into the quilt.
“Sleep. I am with you,” Lin Nanyun said.
A faint red tint of tiredness appeared at the corners of the eyes of Bo Shuyi. She moved closer to Lin Nanyun, reached out to hug her waist, and buried her face in the side of the neck of Lin Nanyun. “Good,” she replied. Her slightly raspy voice scraped against the eardrums of Lin Nanyun.
Bo Shuyi inhaled the comforting scent of Lin Nanyun, gave her a light kiss on the chin, and closed her eyes to sleep.
Lin Nanyun lay with her eyes closed for a long time but could not fall asleep. She asked the system if it knew how two girls did such things.
[I know.]
Lin Nanyun asked if it could tell her about it.
[Sorry, Host. 199 is forbidden from making explicit comments.]
Lin Nanyun was speechless. That was right; she had just issued that ban herself. She finally experienced what it felt like to lift a stone only to drop it on her own foot. Eventually, Lin Nanyun grew sleepy. She hugged the waist of Bo Shuyi back and closed her eyes.
Bo Shuyi woke up at half past four and found that Lin Nanyun was completely nestled in her arms. Soft strands of hair were scattered across the pillow, and the white cheeks of Lin Nanyun were flushed from sleep. Her curled eyelashes trembled slightly with her breath, and her mouth was slightly open, revealing a glimpse of her pink tongue.
Bo Shuyi lowered her head to give Lin Nanyun a light peck on the lips. In a pleasant mood, she got up and went to the living room to handle some work.
Lin Jiu reported the latest investment progress to Bo Shuyi from the other end of the computer. “President Bo, after Zhang Haisheng was removed from the investor list for ‘The Order of Chaoyang,’ his investment amount was covered by another company, Happy Entertainment. ‘The Order of Chaoyang’ is expected to start filming in September this year. The female lead has been confirmed as Wang Anran, and the male lead will likely be Yun Fei. Both are currently very popular stars with fame and good looks. They both graduated from professional film academies and have solid acting foundations. The professional department has evaluated their market effect; based on their fans alone, ‘The Order of Chaoyang’ should earn two to three times the investment at the box office.”
Bo Shuyi believed that professional matters were best left to professional people, so she had no objections regarding the leads. She was more concerned about another matter. “Is there any news regarding Zhang Haisheng?”
Yang Jiu replied, “After the hospital confirmed that Zhang Haisheng was ruined, he could not accept it and hurried abroad for treatment. His company is now under the full control of his wife, Ren Jingjing.”
Bo Shuyi propped up her chin lazily. “Having a husband famous for wanting to take advantage of young stars, the married life of Ren Jingjing must have been very unhappy. Find someone to help her. Ensure that Zhang Haisheng leaves the marriage with nothing.”
Yang Jiu gasped and could not help but give a thumbs up. “President Bo, you are amazing.”
He thought to himself that Zhang Haisheng was truly unlucky. Of all the people he could have offended, he chose the Great Demon King Bo Shuyi. Now he was finished. Yang Jiu could not help but shed a sympathetic tear for him.
At five o’clock, Bo Shuyi finished her work. He Hua knocked on the door, bringing a large bag of ingredients to help them cook dinner. Bo Shuyi went to the bedroom to wake Lin Nanyun.
Bo Shuyi sat by the bed. The cold silk slip nightgown felt cool against her skin. She leaned down, kissed the forehead of Lin Nanyun, and whispered in her ear, “Time to wake up, Nanyun.”
In her dream, Lin Nanyun felt her ear was itchy. She reached out from under the quilt to scratch it, but her hand encountered something cool and soft along the way. Lin Nanyun gave it a squeeze, causing Bo Shuyi to let out a sharp intake of breath.
[Host! Wake up quickly!]
Lin Nanyun was shouted awake by the system. She opened her eyes and tried to sit up, only to bury her face in a soft area that felt very similar to what she had just touched.
Bo Shuyi was silent.
After pulling away, Lin Nanyun saw Bo Shuyi and the area below her collarbone. Her brain immediately stalled, and she was almost unable to speak. “I, I, I. You, you.”
The face of Lin Nanyun grew redder and redder, her eyes filled with shy moisture.
Bo Shuyi stood up and said with a normal expression, “It is good that you are awake. Sister He is making dinner. I will change my clothes first.”
Bo Shuyi turned to the wardrobe. Lin Nanyun sat stupidly on the bed for a while, not daring to recall what had just happened. She thought to herself that she must stop thinking about her hand and her face.
Bo Shuyi finished changing her clothes with her back to Lin Nanyun. She placed her pajamas on the back of a chair and spoke to Lin Nanyun, who still had a flushed face and a lowered head. “Nanyun, I am going out first. Come out quickly after you change.” She then left the bedroom.
Bo Shuyi was also a little surprised by what had happened. She figured Lin Nanyun must be very embarrassed, so she decided to let her stay alone for a while. She would take it slow; Bo Shuyi would never let the little white rabbit who was about to be eaten escape.
