Love Apartment: Lying down makes me happy

Chapter 193: He who knows the current affairs is a hero

"Hey beautiful, I bet you a hundred bucks, if you turn around, I'll scream in amazement!"

Lu Ziqiao walked to the bar and struck up a conversation with a woman whose back was to him, while giving Zhang Wei a wink that said, "Watch me!"

When the woman turned around, Lu Ziqiao's eyes widened instantly; "Ahhhhhh!"

Yu Mo sighed helplessly: "This is the third time this week that you've accidentally struck up a conversation with me!"

"Attack from behind is risky, of course, and I don't have the full map revealed!"

Lu Ziqiao said with an innocent look on his face.

"What's the theme this time? Train perverts?"

"I'm not that bored. This trip is to train my new partner, Zhang Wei!"

As Lu Ziqiao spoke, he looked to the side and froze in shock.

Zhang Wei was nowhere to be seen in the bar; he had run away long ago while he was flirting with Yu Mo!

......

While Lu Ziqiao went to find Zhang Wei, Guan Gu was crying so hard that he even smudged his script!

He simply couldn't believe that Youyou was dead... in the script!

Zeng Xiaoxian tried to comfort him, but to little avail.

After cursing for a long time, Guan Gu finally came up with a solution—burn the script!

Zeng Xiaoxian exclaimed from the side, "You're an expert!"

However, it was all for naught; those who were destined to die still died.

Suddenly, Guan Gu had a flash of inspiration. He thought that since their word didn't count, he should find someone whose word did count—Lisa!

However, this time they did not blindly search, knowing that their voices were weak and insignificant.

So, they approached Chen Xiaobai's girlfriend, Lin Qingqing, as their intermediary!

Lin Qingqing couldn't guarantee that things could be changed after hearing this, as she clearly knew more than they did. Although Lisa was the producer, she also had to listen to her superiors, and this matter was obviously not something she could decide on her own.

However, seeing Guan Gu's expression as if he was about to commit seppuku at any moment, Chen Xiaobai still persuaded Lin Qingqing to invite Lisa out.

......

The bar downstairs (Is there no other space? Why are all the places downstairs bars? And if you're asking someone for a favor, shouldn't you at least book a nearby, upscale place instead of visiting them in person?)

Lisa took a sip of coffee and said calmly, "I've already heard about what Qingqing wanted to tell you. I can only say one thing: I can't help you with that!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Gu immediately became anxious; "Ah, Lisa, you have to think of another way! Youyou is really working hard, she stays up all night every day to memorize her lines, and..."

"stop!"

Lisa rubbed her temples, looking troubled, and said, "What do you take me for? The station manager?"

"I'm just a small-time producer. This matter involves a lot of issues, and it's not something I can decide. To be honest, I don't want to change the producer, as it could very well affect the ratings, but..."

Out of consideration for her best friend, Lisa warned everyone not to spread the word before finally telling the truth.

It turns out that the leaders in the production company didn't care about this TV series before, so the actors didn't care!

But things are different now. The TV series has become a hit, and the leaders in the group have taken notice of it. They insist on casting one of their own people as the lead actor, and the investor is a private hospital that wants to showcase the hospital's superb medical skills.

So the screenwriter staged a dramatic character swap. Youyou's character was shot and fell into an elevator shaft, suffering comminuted fractures all over her body. Fortunately, her brain was intact, so a brain transplant was arranged to replace Youyou's character's brain with that of a newly arranged person. The new body miraculously recovered and continued to fight crime.

Everyone: "..."

So even though Lisa was very annoyed by the group's recklessness, she had no choice but to let them do as they pleased; there was nothing she could do about it!

Therefore... Youyou is doomed!

Before leaving, Lisa said, "I think it would make her feel better if her friend told her about this!"

......

Back at the apartment, the four of them gathered in Guan Gu's room.

Guan Gu hesitated for a long time before looking at Zeng Xiaoxian; "You should be the one to say this, Teacher Zeng!"

"I'm not going to be the bad guy. Qingqing, you should talk to her. You're both girls, it'll be easier for you!"

Zeng Xiaoxian couldn't avoid it and quickly turned his gaze to Lin Qingqing.

"Ah I?"

Lin Qingqing stared at them in surprise, then looked at Chen Xiaobai and remained silent.

Chen Xiaobai instantly understood what was going on; the blame had been shifted onto him. He immediately turned his gaze to Guan Gu; "Guan Gu, you're so worried about her, why don't you go and talk to her!"

"I'm not nervous at all!"

Guan Gu immediately jumped up, then said helplessly, "I'll only get nervous if I have to say it myself. You go and say it!"

"You really want me to go and tell them?"

Chen Xiaobai teased, "Then I'll go tell Youyou that you're dead, and that Guan Gu has liked you for a long time!"

As he spoke, Chen Xiaobai got up and pretended to go find Youyou.

Guan Gu quickly stopped Chen Xiaobai, his eyes darting around as he said, "I didn't, you're talking nonsense!"

"Ha, you're still pretending!"

Zeng Xiaoxian sneered, "Even Xiaobai could see that. Do you think we're blind? I could tell from Youyou's last job interview—her pupils were dilated, she was fidgeting, and those 20-odd packs of instant noodles I bought last time were all crushed into flour. Was that you?!"

Zeng Xiaoxian became more and more miserable as he spoke. Who understands? You know the pain of coming home from get off work late at night wanting to cook a pack of instant noodles, only to find out that you need to steam buns instead!

Guan Gu said guiltily, "I didn't exaggerate that much!"

"Crack~ Crack~ Ptooey!"

Suddenly, the sound of cracking sunflower seeds drew everyone's attention.

Lin Qingqing waved her hand with an awkward smile, "You guys continue, I won't bother you!"

Everyone: "..."

After a heated discussion, everyone unanimously decided to let Guan Gu speak.

The minority must submit to the majority; Guan Gu had no room for rebuttal!

The main thing is, Guangu, you don't want Youyou to know that you like her, right...?

The power of those words was immense, and Guan Gu kept angrily protesting, "It's not fair! Those words belong to us!"

Chen Xiaobai smiled and said, "Then let me say something from our perspective. As the saying goes, 'A wise man submits to circumstances,' Guan Gu, you should think this through!"

Guan Gu: "......"

......

While Guan Gu was struggling with his decision, Lü Ziqiao brought Zhang Wei back.

He hid in the toilet and returned to his birthplace!

However, as expected of someone with a telepathic connection, Lu Ziqiao suddenly felt the urge to use the restroom after searching for a while. As soon as he flushed the toilet, he saw Zhang Wei sneaking away, preparing to run away.

For the sake of his mission bonus, Lu Ziqiao gave Zhang Wei another round of persuasion and a "Heartbreak Palm" (a powerful, agonizing blow), finally making Zhang Wei come to his senses and obediently follow him to pick up girls.

Upon reaching the bar, Lü Ziqiao introduced his ultimate indirect flirting method!

Yu Mo, who was standing nearby, questioned, "Zi Qiao, why are all your plans intermediate-level? Don't you have any advanced ones?"

"I'm afraid he won't be able to grasp the advanced level!"

Are you sure this method will work for Zhang Wei?

"Hmph, if I can't read his pulse, my veterinary license is useless!"
