Chapter 668 Book 1 Dream 9
Shangguan He was dressed exceptionally exquisitely today, looking like a butterfly from a distance. She was beautiful, but a little dazzling.
He strode towards her, but just as he was about to reach her, he suddenly tripped and fell forward uncontrollably.
Then, feigning fear, he threw himself at her, saying, "Oh dear, Miss Cheng, save me!"
"What are you doing?" Huang Chengzhu raised her hand to stop him. "Are you doing this on purpose?"
Seeing that his plan had failed, Shangguan He could only smile and straighten up: "Miss Cheng, you misunderstand. I just tripped by accident."
"A martial arts practitioner is so easily tripped? You're kidding me."
"Hehehe, I really didn't mean to."
"To be honest, what's your purpose in coming here today?"
"I really have nothing to say..." Shangguan He said, only halfway through his sentence.
Finally, under her gaze, he wisely spoke up: "Okay, okay, I admit it's just a small matter."
He made a small gesture to indicate that he didn't ask for much.
"What is it? Is it something I'm not telling you?"
Huang Chengzhu knew his purpose to some extent, and after watching the plot, she also knew his personality.
"Then can you tell me?" Shangguan He looked at her expectantly, revealing what he thought was his most handsome smile.
Since he couldn't beat her, he had no choice but to sacrifice himself and use his greatest advantage to attract her.
Huang Chengzhu remained unmoved: "No."
Upon hearing this, the smile on his face instantly turned into aggrieved: "Is there really no room for negotiation?"
"It's not the right time yet. Don't ask, I won't tell you even if you do."
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Shangguan He had no choice but to give up. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but she was just too determined.
"When will that be?"
"Wait until the right time."
The two talked for a long time, one speaking in riddles, and the other getting nothing but an uncertain answer.
Shangguan He told her that Nan Heng wanted to see her again, but Huang Chengzhu refused.
There's no point in seeing Nan Heng anymore. He's already realized that bringing the female lead along can change the plot, so there's no need to see the male lead again.
As for the mechanism where the male lead always comes to the rescue when the female lead is in danger, she doesn't plan to get involved, otherwise she would have to go and rescue people all the time.
Xiao Qi: "Host, I've noticed that you haven't seemed very enthusiastic since you arrived in this world?"
Huang Chengzhu leaned against the railing, which was three stories high behind her, and she put her weight on it without a care.
"A fake world, full of illogical two-dimensional characters, how could I possibly be interested in that?"
"No wonder, host, you have no patience for anyone, and it's the same with how you talk."
"Going to sleep, nothing's wrong, eating, drinking and having fun is more suitable for me."
Huang Chengzhu entered the room, washed up, and immediately collapsed onto the bed, falling asleep.

"Song Yimeng, over here!" Huang Chengzhu stood upstairs, looking down at the people below.
"Oh dear, they're here." Song Yimeng looked up and saw them coming upstairs with a maid and a girl.
Seeing the three people panting as they ran upstairs, Huang Chengzhu invited them into the room.
Song Yimeng followed her inside, poured herself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp: "I'm exhausted. Luckily you're here, otherwise I wouldn't know where to run."
"How come you've caused trouble as soon as you arrive?" Huang Chengzhu's gaze swept over the woman behind her.
"I just arrived and saw people being auctioned off here. Do you think I could just stand by and do nothing? Why didn't you tell me sooner that these shady deals were being done here?"
"I don't know, I've never seen it before."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, the person has been rescued, and I will definitely take them away and make sure they are settled in properly."
Upon hearing this, the mute girl behind her immediately knelt down to express her gratitude.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't kneel down all the time, get up quickly." Song Yimeng quickly told Yingqiu to pull the person up.
Just then, several footsteps and voices came from outside the door.
"We're doomed, Old Huang, the people chasing us are here."
Huang Chengzhu stood up: "You all stay here and don't come out. I'll go check on things."
Song Yimeng quickly pulled her back: "You shouldn't go out either, those people are not easy to mess with."
"It's alright, don't forget who I am."
Identity? Oh right, Old Huang is also a martial arts master.
"Then be careful."
"Ah."
Huang Chengzhu opened the door and saw Shangguan He negotiating with those people.
It seemed she didn't need to do anything herself, so she leaned against the door and watched.
Shangguan He sent those people away before turning back.
"Miss Cheng, this is an internal mistake by our Canjiangyue. We've caused you some trouble. I'll have someone bring you some drinks later."
"Thank you," Huang Chengzhu nodded and said casually.
"You're welcome, I have to go now." He had things to do and didn't have time to say more to her.
"Go."
Back in the room, Song Yimeng was relieved to see that she was alright: "What happened?"
"It's nothing serious, just an unexpected incident within Canjiangyue."
"I see. Never mind, Yingqiu, take your people to the outer room. We need to talk alone."
"Yes, Miss." Yingqiu nodded and led the people out.
After the two had walked away, Song Yimeng spoke up: "Little Huang, the Lantern Festival is not far away."
"I know."
Tonight's plot is different too. Chu Guihong didn't come to Canjiangyue to test Ye Youshen. He was investigating the matter of Qianyu Army sending someone to ask Nan Heng for help back then.
Huang Chengzhu had previously revealed to him that there were hidden details about what happened back then, which changed the plot.
“You haven’t read the script, so you don’t know what will happen that day? Many people will die that day, and I can’t bear to ignore it.”
Song Yimeng recounted all the details of the Lantern Festival.
Huang Chengzhu glanced at her; of course she knew all this, so she also planned to go to the street that day.
However, she doesn't intend to say it directly.
"Then you can find someone to help you with fire prevention."
Song Yimeng nodded: "This is my plan. This matter is still related to Nan Heng. I need to tell Chu Guihong in advance so that he can make preparations."
After saying that, she suddenly looked angry: "You don't know, that Nan Heng has been coming to ask me out lately. He must be trying to use me to get the Song family's help."
"Did you see him?" Huang Chengzhu asked casually, drinking his tea with little interest and listening to her speak.
She wasn't curious about or concerned about the relationship between the male and female leads, nor did she care whether they could spark a romance, as long as the plot took a different turn.
"Of course I won't see him. I've been hiding in the manor every day lately. But this Nan Heng is really shameless. He went directly to visit my father."
"So you still saw him?"
"My father called me, I can't not go. Nan Heng will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, he's shameless..."
Song Yimeng berated Nan Heng, making Huang Chengzhu want to sleep.
She breathed a sigh of relief after everyone left; listening to people talk was quite tiring.
