<strong>Chapter 125: Humans Are Scary</strong>
Sounds of heavy breathing were heard, each carrying with itplex emotional undertones. As Ye Lingchen heard it, his cheeks turned red with warmth.
The sound came from the second floor. Ye Lingchen looked up at the window and checked his surroundings. He then took a deep breath and climbed up along the wall in a few steps, after which hey prone on the windowsill.
As he looked through the window, he almost forgot to breathe. His entire body stiffened and his eyes turned red.
The interior was decorated with a pinkish hue with some dolls on disy. The room clearly belonged to a girl. Surprisingly, there were two women on the bed.
Their figures were absolutely stunning with jade-white skin tone, hugging each other in an overly passionate way.
Their cheeks were flushed and eyes closed with a blissful expression on their faces, continually moaning, obviously lost in their own world.
This... this... how could this be?
Ye Lingchen felt that his heart almost leaped out of his chest. He looked around frantically while swallowing hard, stopping himself from screaming out loud.
To avoid detection, he shifted his body slightly and stared intently.
“OMG! Humans are too much, this is too perverted!”
“Scary! Humans are scary!”
The crazed chirping of those birds went to another level.
Ten minutester, the moaning died down. By then, the two women were covered in sweat, lying exhausted on the bed.
Ye Lingchen was finally able to identify the faces of the two women. With that one look, he felt as though he was struck by lightning. Covering his mouth tightly with his hand, he quickly jumped down and ran for his life, not daring to slow down the slightest bit.
‘OMG! F*ck! It’s those two!’
After running for a few hundred meters, Ye Lingchen finally let out a deep breath. He ced his hand over his heart that was beating like crazy and looked back with a sense of dread.
Ye Lingchen knew both of them. One was Li Muxue, and the other one Huang Xiaomeng!
No wonder Huang Xiaomeng had always hated him. After all this time, one woman was trying to exact her revenge on me because of another woman. Their friendship was going slightly overboard.
‘What am I?’
‘Am I the third wheel? Is this a battle of jealousy?’
Although he had his suspicions before, it was different when he witnessed it with his own eyes.
This incident challenged Ye Lingchen’s worldview. He felt the need to distance himself from those two women. It was unfortunate that Li Muxue was such a beauty.
If that information were to be made public, countless boys would be crying their eyes out.
He frowned suddenly, trying to recall the earlier memory of the scene.
Huang Xiaomeng looked very different earlier. Without that thickyer of foundation, she seemed to be a lot prettier...
Back home, Zhang Yunxi had prepared breakfast on the table. Even Little Green and Little Gray’s portions were ced by the side.
“I n to get Little Green and Little Gray a kennel in the yard. It’d be nice to get some clothes[1] too,” suggested Zhang Yunxi.
“Okay, you can make the decision,” Ye Lingchen nodded.
He disliked troublesome stuff, especially these trivial matters. It was nice to have Zhang Yunxi settle them for him.
Huo Yuanjia’s actor listing was slowly being filled, hence Ye Lingchen did not need to head to Hengdian Studios that day. He left it to Li Tai to manage. He only needed to be there asionally to guide them through the fighting scenes during filming.
After breakfast, he went with Zhang Yunxi to sign the rental contract with the store owner, then returned to his room to prepare material for his next stream.
Grave Robber’s Chronicles wasing to an end. Ye Lingchen estimated another five more live stream sessions should bring it to a close. He needed to contemte on the next topic for streaming.
His brain ran on overdrive, continuously reflecting on the books he had read,piling and piecing together the information. This matter affected his poprity. Carelessness was not tolerated.
At the same time, Huo Yuanjia’s audition was ongoing.
Li Jing stood nearby for a long time. After a long consideration, he finally gripped his fist tightly and approached the audition location.
His face was lined with worry and nervousness.
When he recalledst night’s incident, it felt unreal, as though it was a dream.
Even then, he was not sure whether it was an illusion or not.
Who was that person? Could he be Huo Yuanjia’s lead actor? Was it just a whimsical joke?
Li Jing was gued by those questions the entire night, feeling both excited and worried at the same time.
The lead actor in a movie was very important. In his current state, even just appearing as a supporting character was already a good deal, much less the idea of him getting the lead role.
However, whenever he thought of Ye Lingchen’s figure and aura, he had a gut feeling that the young man he met was no ordinary person. He would not stoop to lying to him about this.
Regardless, this was a chance that he had to take! Even if he failed, that would be fine as he had nothing to lose.
He calmed himself again and again as he approached the audition location. If someone paid closer attention, they would notice that his body was trembling.
“Eh, Li Jing?” Just as he reached the door, a woman in a red dress coincidentally walked out of the room. As they met each other, she looked at Li Jing with surprise.
“Y-y-yang Yue?” Li Jing’s expression suddenly turned dark, looking ufortable.
Yang Yue immediately let out a chillingugh, “As expected, you’re still the same. I’m so d to have broken up with you long ago, otherwise, who knows how much suffering I’d have to go through.”
“Hahaha, I told you right from the start to ditch him and follow me instead. You won’t regret it. See this now? I was right.” A fat guy hugged Yang Yue by her waist and threw a disgusted look at Li Jing. “This guy is done for, doomed to be trash forever!”
That fat guy was shorter than Yang Yue, had a beer belly and a chubby face.
A look of humiliation shed through Li Jing’s eyes. He opened his mouth but no words came forth.
Yang Yue was Li Jing’s ex-girlfriend. When Li Jing was famous, their rtionship was good. She amodated Li Jing all the time. However, when Li Jing faced persecution and faced growing struggles in his life, her attitude had taken a 180-degree turn. She constantly criticized Li Jing for being useless. She even pushed Li Jing to beg Wu Han for forgiveness. Li Jing naturally did not agree, hence their explosive conflict started from that point on.
At longst, Yang Yue refused to struggle through the hard times with Li Jing andtched onto a small-time director Chen Feng, ditching Li Jing.
“What? Could it be that you’re here to audition for a role in Huo Yuanjia? With your looks, who would want you?” Yang Yue gave Li Jing a derisive look. “It was because you cared so much for your stupid dignity that it brought your own downfall in the first ce. What’s the point of struggling now? If I were you, I’d hurry to kneel in front of Wu Han and beg for mercy. You might be of some use that way.”
“What I do is none of your business!” Li Jing retorted, throwing an icy look at Yang Yue.
“Hehe, stubborn fool!” Yang Yue harrumphed. “What else can you do apart from wail?”
“Yue’er, this is the type of person that would go to all extents to save face. He is talentless, yet he remained prideful to the end. What a joke.” Chen Fengughed out loud, then shot Li Jing a cruel re, “If you’re here for Huo Yuanjia’s audition, then you should just leave. You have no chance!”
“That’s right.” Yang Yue stared coldly at Li Jing, “So long as Director Chen has a word with Director Li, you won’t even have a chance to be an extra in the movie!”

[1] In raw it’s written as clothes without any specification. We believe that it is likely referring to some pet clothes rather than Zhang Yunxi asking for more clothes as a few chapters ago they pretty much bought all the clothes from Vatti’s store. It is up to you readers to decide if the clothes here refer to human or pet clothes. It’s not an important detail in the overall story. Just some small rifications. ~With love from the team.
