My Virtual Girlfriend-Chapter 67: Drunk (Request for Monthly Tickets!)

The money Chen Yan casually threw around was a simple, direct, and complete demonstration of his financial power.

It also confirmed to the actors that he was indeed a wealthy "rich person."

The entertainment industry is very pragmatic.

Without money or status, you are surrounded by "bad people."

But with money and status, you are surrounded by "good people."

So, after Chen Yan demonstrated his worth, those actors who had initially come just to coast through their days and clung to Lu Man’s popularity changed their attitude quickly. They took turns eagerly toasting to Chen Yan and Lu Man.

They fully demonstrated what it means "if you have money, you can do anything."

Even Yu Qiao Qiao, who obviously had a special relationship with Chen Yan, was not unaffected as they had also respectfully toasted her.

After all... abundance of courtesies offends no one.

However, even though it was Yu Qiao Qiao who ordered the red wine, she was only a "tool person" and had never really drunk wine before.

Thus, Chen Yan was worried about her drinking too much, so he kept blocking it for her.

Still, Yu Qiao Qiao felt embarrassed and sipped a little each time just to show courtesy.

But even then, by the end of the meal, Yu Qiao Qiao’s face was flushed red, and her eyes were slighted squinted as if drunk, which made Chen Yan slightly worried as he watched...

After dining, Chen Yan added several actors to a WeChat group, then sent them the upcoming shooting plans and schedule.

Since the most important actors were Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man, the shooting schedule was entirely planned around their availability.

Yu Qiao Qiao’s schedule was all day Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoon, and she would stay directly here over the weekend to work overtime.

Almost all of Lu Man’s schedule was booked. Whenever she was free, except Yu Qiao Qiao, all others had to come to support the scenes.

Among them, Chen Yan was the toughest as the male lead. Since he had the most parts, he had to shoot scenes with several actors normally, and when Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man were available, he also had to act in dual scenes with them.

Even during the night, he had to work overtime to shoot his solo scenes.

The only thing Chen Yan was thankful for was: when he was designing this game due to limited funds, to save money, he planned for a "pseudo" video made up of pictures plus voice acting.

If he were filming a "real" video, it would probably be even more exhausting.

After the gathering, Chen Yan called the waiter and settled the bill with his card.

After the others left, Chen Yan looked worriedly at the drunken Yu Qiao Qiao.

This was probably Boss Qiao Qiao’s first time drinking, and combined with the aftereffects of the red wine, she got even more intoxicated after the gathering, barely able to open her eyes.

Chen Yan hesitated for a moment, then tentatively supported her by one arm and put her over his shoulder, wondering whether to just help her back to the hotel.

But Boss Qiao Qiao had such a good figure, plus she was limp from the alcohol.

As Chen Yan supported her, she completely leaned against him.

Her exquisite body and her advantages over the other girls clung tightly to Chen Yan, causing him, who had rarely been close to girls, to blush a bit.

Luckily, all the other actors had left, only Lu Man was still there; Chen Yan’s embarrassed look wasn’t seen by others.

With no outsiders around, Lu Man returned to her playful, carefree self.

She glanced at the intoxicated Yu Qiao Qiao, then at the embarrassed Chen Yan, and with a playful expression on her face, she leaned over and asked with a smile, "Need some help?"

"It seems you’re a bit inconvenienced."

Seeing Lu Man coming to his rescue, Chen Yan quickly nodded.

Lu Man put her luggage next to Chen Yan, then put on a hat and sunglasses to make sure she wouldn’t be recognized, and came over to take over from Chen Yan, supporting Yu Qiao Qiao.

When Chen Yan let go, the weight of Yu Qiao Qiao’s body pressed onto Lu Man, who then somewhat surprisingly remarked, "She’s so light."

Chen Yan secretly straightened his clothes while absentmindedly responding, "Hmm... indeed not heavy."

Lu Man did not notice Chen Yan’s odd reaction; she curiously looked down at the part of Yu Qiao Qiao resting against her, surprised a bit, and then pouted, "It’s just not fair. How does she grow like this?"

"What?" Chen Yan asked, not catching what she said.

Lu Man waved her hand, "Nothing."

She supported Yu Qiao Qiao and with snapping fingers said briskly, "Stop dawdling. Go! Go! Go! Let’s head back to the hotel."

Chen Yan picked up Lu Man’s luggage and agreed, "Alright. Let’s go."

With Lu Man’s help, Chen Yan and Yu Qiao Qiao quickly returned to the hotel.

Crossing the lobby, the trio entered the elevator, took out the room card, and swiped for Yu Qiao Qiao’s floor.

As the elevator doors closed, with no outsiders around, Lu Man mischievously said, "Chen Yan. Did you notice how others looked at you just now?" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Chen Yan was still thinking about how to care for Yu Qiao Qiao, and hearing her question, he absentmindedly replied with an "Eh?" before regaining his focus and asking, "Was there something off about their expressions?"

Lu Man grinned slyly, "They definitely think you’re a playboy, taking two girls back to your room. And you even got one drunk. Clearly up to no good!"

Chen Yan: .....

Is she really not acting crazy?

Also, why is she so enthusiastic about such a topic!

At such a critical time, can she switch back to being the graceful, reserved Lu Man?

When they reached the 18th floor, Chen Yan took out Yu Qiao Qiao’s room card and helped her into her room first.

Chen Yan and Lu Man together lifted Yu Qiao Qiao onto the bed.

Then... as they gazed at Boss Qiao Qiao, who had already fallen sound asleep, they exchanged glances.

Lu Man curiously asked, "What should we do next?"

Chen Yan rubbed his temples, "Just leaving her here doesn’t seem proper."

Lu Man looked disdainfully at Chen Yan, "You’re not planning to stay and take care of her, are you?"

"Chen Yan. I really didn’t expect you to look so noble yet be so heartless."

"Such a cute girl, and you dare to take advantage of her when she’s drunk!"

Chen Yan: ....

Can someone manage this drama queen?

He held his head, "What I meant was, should I maybe call a friend of hers, or perhaps a female colleague to come and look after her for a bit?"

Saying this, Chen Yan looked at Yu Qiao Qiao worriedly, "She’s okay now because she’s asleep. But once the alcohol wears off, it might be tough."

While the two were discussing arrangements for Yu Qiao Qiao, the girl lying on the bed turned over, her cute mouth slightly open, murmuring adorably, "Ah...mi...ma...pa..."

Apparently having a pleasant dream, Yu Qiao Qiao’s face, reddened by alcohol, also displayed an expression of happiness.

Chen Yan, Lu Man: ....

Momentarily.

"Poof." Lu Man couldn’t help but let out a laugh.

And a smile inevitably appeared on Chen Yan’s face.

Lu Man, looking at Yu Qiao Qiao, sighed, "This girl is really cute."

"Just like a blank slate."

"What kind of family could raise such an adorable girl?"

Chen Yan knew about Yu Qiao Qiao’s background: to mention a family, this child had grown up in an orphanage since she was little.

Actually, when Chen Yan learned of Yu Qiao Qiao’s background, he felt a bit sorry for her.

But at this moment, he thought... maybe Yu Qiao Qiao had a happy life?

The teachers and the head of the orphanage must be really good to have raised such a cute girl... right?

Possibly because of Yu Qiao Qiao’s cuteness, she "conquered" Lu Man.

Lu Man’s eyes flicked as she raised her eyebrows looking at Chen Yan, saying, "Chen Yan, it’s already 9 PM. Calling someone from the city would be too much of a hassle for them. How about I stay and take care of... this... this..."

Chen Yan reminded, "Yu Qiao Qiao?"

Lu Man said, "Right! Yu Qiao Qiao!"

"I’ll take care of her for you."

Chen Yan looked at her skeptically, "You? You’ll take care of her?"

"You, a big celebrity, usually needing to be taken care of, now taking care of someone else? Are you kidding me?"

Lu Man, annoyed, said, "Why can’t I take care of someone else! I’m a girl too. I’m quite good at taking care of people."

Saying this, she jumped off the bed, then pushed Chen Yan towards the door, "Alright, alright. Just leave it to me. I promise no problems will arise!"

While talking, Chen Yan was pushed outside by Lu Man, and just as he thought to struggle, he was "bang!" shut out of the door.

Through the door, Chen Yan could still hear Lu Man’s assurances, "Don’t worry! With me taking care of her, she definitely won’t have any problems!"

Chen Yan: .....

You’re not making me feel confident at all!

Standing outside the door, Chen Yan did not leave.

He thought for a moment...

He took out his cell phone, opened the Virtual Girlfriend game, wanting to see what Lu Man was up to.

If she was indeed taking good care of Boss Qiao Qiao, that would be fine.

But if she was up to mischief, then he would have to go in and "save the day!"
