Ancient Sorcerer was just joking, but to his surprise, Kong Ying nodded and said, "Yes, so we need to be careful. It's fine for me, but you would have a big problem. I assume you don't want those paparazzi to report and follow you around, right?"
Startled, Ancient Sorcerer immediately shook his head and said, "Of course, I think it might be better if we just don't go. That would be the safest option."
"Once you're on the pirate ship, there's no way to get off," Kong Ying said.
As soon as she finished speaking, her face flushed slightly. She realized that her pronunciation seemed to have a little issue; she had mixed up "ship" and "bed."
Stealing a glance, she noticed that Ancient Sorcerer also looked a bit awkward. Kong Ying panicked and blurted out, "I didn't mean that! I meant... 'ship' not 'bed.'"
"Ah?!"
Ancient Sorcerer was taken aback but quickly reacted, saying, "This..."
Kong Ying's face turned bright red; even her chest felt warm. She understood that she had overthought it; Ancient Sorcerer did not misunderstand her.
"I..."
Kong Ying couldn't find the words.
"However, if it really were 'bed,' that would be great! It must be a matter of life and death!"
It seemed as if he spoke without thinking; only after saying it did Ancient Sorcerer realize how inappropriate that statement was.
Kong Ying's face was flushed with embarrassment as she turned to glare at Ancient Sorcerer, saying, "What do you mean by that?"
Seeing her reaction, Ancient Sorcerer silently lamented. He thought to himself that he hadn't initiated this situation; how had it turned out that he was the one in the wrong? However, he dared not say this aloud and could only respond with silence. The atmosphere in the car grew increasingly awkward and ambiguous.
The car drove away from Guanghai City District, entering a winding mountain road before arriving at a Villa Area, stopping in front of the last villa.
"We're here."
Kong Ying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The atmosphere in the car had been too "oppressive," and if it continued like this, she might not even be able to drive anymore; it was quite embarrassing.
Looking up at the villa in front of them, Ancient Sorcerer noticed that behind the villa was a steep cliff, with tall trees on either side. Numerous cameras were installed in both bright and dark areas, and there were security guards in front of the villa as well as several patrolling around.
Shaking his head, the Ancient Sorcerer said to Kong Ying, "Is your celebrity friend planning to turn this place into a fortress where not even a mosquito can get in?"
Kong Ying smiled and replied, "If that were possible, she would really want to do that."
"Such arrangements are not enough to deal with true professionals, but they might work against those paparazzi."
In this regard, the Ancient Sorcerer was indeed a true professional and had the qualifications to say such things. To others, these arrangements might seem impenetrable, but he could breach them in less than five minutes.
"If she hears you say that, she'll definitely be upset."
As Kong Ying spoke, she led the Ancient Sorcerer inside. It was clear she was a regular here; the security guard greeted her and let them pass.
In front of the villa was a yard, about three hundred square meters in size, with grass and various flowers planted. A worker was watering the plants.
"Let's go inside; she's at the back of the villa."
Upon entering the villa, the first thing that caught their eyes was a huge swimming pool. The clear water shimmered with golden light under the sun, and in one corner stood several umbrellas and beach chairs. In the distance, they could see a young woman lying on one of them.
Kong Ying quickly walked over, but the Ancient Sorcerer remained still. It seemed inappropriate to approach a woman by the poolside who was covered with a towel; he wondered if she was naked underneath.
After a moment, seeing Kong Ying wave at him, the Ancient Sorcerer walked over. However, he was immediately taken aback when he recognized the woman next to Kong Ying. No, it should be said that everyone might recognize her.
"Hello, Mr. Luo. I'm Zhong Wenxin; thank you for coming over."
While he was still in shock, she had already extended her hand. The Ancient Sorcerer quickly reached out and shook hands with Zhong Wenxin before giving a wry smile and saying, "Sister Kong Ying has kept this under wraps; she only mentioned it was a celebrity but didn't say it was a big star."
The Ancient Sorcerer hadn't expected Kong Ying to be talking about Zhong Wenxin. Just after returning to Guanghai City, he had seen her music video on billboards in the city. Zhong Wenxin had risen to fame in recent years and had won numerous domestic awards as well as several Grammy Awards in America; it was hard not to know someone like her!
"Just an actress."
Zhong Wenxin paused for a moment before continuing, "Mr. Luo, since you are Sister Kong Ying's friend, I won't stand on ceremony. I've been having some health issues lately and would like you to take a look."
Zhong Wenxin had been feeling quite depressed recently; she fainted every few days and felt terrible when she was awake. More importantly, doctors couldn't find any issues during her hospital visits.
Having worked hard for ten years since she was thirteen to achieve her current success, what would she do if there really were problems with her health?
Give up everything?
It would be better to kill myself!
Previously, Kong Ying mentioned that the young man called Ancient Sorcerer had cured her precious son's night crying syndrome. Especially since, according to Kong Ying's recollection of the treatment process, it seemed somewhat "strange," she thought to let Ancient Sorcerer take a look.
"Did you have any hallucinations before you fainted? For example, did you see any bizarre and terrifying scenes?"
Zhong Wenxin's heart trembled as she replied, "How do you know?"
Zhong Wenxin never expected Ancient Sorcerer to say such a thing right away. She was shocked and exclaimed—every time she fainted, she would see a strange old man wrapped in snakes, each snake with its mouth open, spitting out blood-red tongues as if they were screaming at her. Then she felt all her mental energy being drained away, and everything went black before she fainted.
"How about this? Find all the MTVs you've filmed during this time. Also, if you've choreographed any dances during this period, try to gather the relevant materials for me. I want to take a look."
Zhong Wenxin couldn't help but glance at Kong Ying. She had come to see Ancient Sorcerer for treatment, but now he wanted to see her MTVs and dance rehearsal materials? She had never heard of such a way of treating someone.
"Wenxin, just do as Ancient Sorcerer says."
Kong Ying was also unsure what kind of tricks Ancient Sorcerer was playing.
"Okay, no problem. I'll have my assistant organize it, and I can give it to you in two hours."
