chapter 33

With such familiar actions and tastes, Su Yuanyuan saw Zhuo Feng’s shadow in Fang Lizhe. She shook her head vigorously, attempting to get rid of this notion. After all, she had come to another world. Fang Lizhe was the person she had to guard now, and it would be unfair to regard him as someone else. However, when she bit into the chicken legs he cooked, her doubt only grew stronger. This chicken leg tasted exactly the same as the ones cooked by Zhuo Feng. How can two different people be so similar as to even have the same cooking skills?!

Su Yuanyuan sat up and stared at Fang Lizhe without blinking to scrutinize his every move. Shockingly, even his eating demeanor and his every expression were really similar. At this point, saying that it was just her projection of Zhuo Feng onto him was very forced. If it wasn’t for his different face, she would have thought Zhuo Feng had followed her over!

She couldn’t help but ask questions in her mind, [What’s going on? Fang Lizhe is so much like the Scholar! Did you do this on purpose? Are you afraid that I can’t let go of the Scholar, so you found me a body double? 001, what are you thinking? The Scholar is unique in my heart, and I don’t need a body double!]

By the end of it, Su Yuanyuan grew faintly angry. She had sincerely guarded Zhuo Feng for 70 years. Getting a body double was simply an insult to this sincerity!

Yet, 001 denied it.

[Host, to ensure you never grow too attached to any character in the illusion world, I would never arrange a body double for you. On the contrary, I also specifically chose different people to set it up. Fang Lizhe is very persistent in pursuing his dreams, and he is almost a workaholic. On the other hand, Zhuo Feng is very easy-going, and he mostly worked hard to have a relaxing life. They should have different personalities. Last time, I said there was a little problem with the data. Now, I have found something, but I haven’t figured it out yet. These uncanny similarities should be related to it. Just, Fang Lizhe and Zhuo Feng even have the same little habits, so it is a big deal. I’ll be sure to figure out the reason as soon as possible.]

001’s voice carried a little self-reproach as it was puzzled by the current situation and felt guilty because it had caused troubles for the host. It was originally formed by immortal essence and blood, and naturally, it has pride in its abilities. However, it didn’t expect to have problems in just its second world, which made it a little frustrated.

Su Yuanyuan softened her tone when she heard that 001 didn’t mean for these things to happen, and comforted it, [Never mind. You have helped me a lot too, so just try your best. If it weren’t for you, I can only lament with one tail in my arms. However, I still think Fang Lizhe is too much like the Scholar. Please check this aspect and see if it is possible that he is the Scholar…]

In truth, both she and 001 thought it was impossible. Since the characters in the illusion world couldn’t go back to the real world with them in the end, it wasn’t good to grow too attached. Regardless, at this moment, Su Yuanyuan still missed Zhuo Feng. She looked at Fang Lizhe, hoping ever so faintly… If only he were really Zhuo Feng…

Fang Lizhe turned to look at her and wondered, “Isn’t the chicken leg delicious? Why aren’t you eating?”

Su Yuanyuan bowed her head and sniffed the familiar smell, and bit into it.

Delicious! Of course, it is delicious! Zhuo Feng’s cooking is trained according to her taste, and she liked everything that he cooked. How can it not be delicious?

Fang Lizhe was relieved to see her eat happily. Ever since he found out that the little one was a fox, not a Pomeranian, he was a little worried that he couldn’t care for it. After all, there were too few people who raised foxes, and he didn’t have much experience to learn from. But now, it seems that it wasn’t very difficult after all. The fox was so smart that he didn’t need to worry about her going to the bathroom at all. It was if he had a new companion instead of a pet at home. He was very lucky to come across such a relief on his first time raising pets.

Both the person and fox had a good appetite, and they ate the two dishes and one soup cleanly. Then, Fang Lizhe carried Su Yuanyuan into his arms as they sat on the sofa, ready to watch TV. Since he was an agent, he pays great attention to every occurence in the entertainment circle out of habit. When he opened the latest movies on the VIP channel, he started to pick films from the perspective of choosing stars and scripts, intending to analyze and study them.

As he scrolled through the list of films, Su Yuanyuan saw the cat and dog comedy movie ranked first and immediately patted Fang Lizhe’s hand with her paw as she barked twice at the TV. Then, she jumped to the coffee table to stare at the screen to show her love, even shaking her tail!

Fang Lizhe really noticed her, looked at her and the comedy, and smiled lightly, “Xiaobai wants to see animals? That’s right. I have watched those you probably don’t like to watch, so let’s watch this film.” He grabbed Su Yuanyuan and pinched her little ears as he clicked on the play button. He didn’t know why, but he liked to hold Su Yuanyuan in his arms ever since he saw her. Clearly, she wasn’t a stuffed animal, so why can’t he put her down?

After the movie began to play, Su Yuanyuan peeked at Fang Lizhe’s expression, and barked softly at the TV from time to time. Finally, she simply jumped on the coffee table and began to imitate the pet dog inside. When it rolled, she also rolled. When it danced, she danced, and even when it jumped with a swish, she jumped high. Scared, Fang Lizhe quickly took her back, laughing, “What are you doing? Is it fun?”

Then, he took the tablet and searched out a recording of a scene shoot from the film. He pointed to it and said, “Silly Xiaobai, don’t imitate everything from the film. You see, when they jump, there are cushions for them to fall onto. It’s not the real balcony of a tall building at all. You will get hurt if you learn from it.” He looked at Su Yuanyuan’s drooping ear and rubbed it to comfort her. “But, our Xiaobai is really awesome, much more powerful than the protagonist inside. It took many times for them to get this cut, but you only learned it once. Awesome!”

Su Yuanyuan immediately looked at him with bright eyes. She really didn’t know that all films were made this way. After reading the tidbits, she felt that the dogs were too stupid. Thanks to that, she even thought that they all had opened their spiritual intelligence. She should really be quite good to get a compliment from Fang Lizhe, the agent, right?

Su Yuanyuan’s desire to perform greatly increased. She barked at the TV twice and imitated it again happily. Furthermore, she not only did so once, but also during a spy war film they were watching after that. She was eager to imitate the pets in the movies from beginning to end! If Fang Lizhe still thought she was cute before as she imitated so many cute movements, then when she imitated the stealthy movements imaginatively, Fang Lizhe was stunned!

He looked Su Yuanyuan up, down, left and right several times, and touched his chin. He was excited and speechless. “I dreamed of meeting an acting genius my whole life, but how come the first time I met one, it’s a little fox?!”

What’s wrong with little foxes? A little fox can turn your life around too! Su Yuanyuan grunted twice and reluctantly turned her back, giving him the back of her head.

Fang Lizhe was stunned. He chuckled lightly a few times as he picked up Su Yuanyuan and gave her a kiss on her brow! Laughingly, “My Xiaobai is so powerful, the artists who will sign in the future will definitely be more powerful. You must be my lucky star and brought me good luck when you appeared! Let’s go to bed early today. Tomorrow, I will go to the university to look for new people. Maybe I could find a good prospect that would be willing to sign with me!”

Su Yuanyuan was in a hurry, so she grabbed his ear and shouted, [I’m glad to encourage you! But I’m not asking you to find someone new, I’m asking you to sign me! Sign me! I’m amazing! I’m sure to be a hit!!!]

However, Fang Lizhe couldn’t understand fox language. After washing, he held her into the quilt as he searched the information of the university with a tablet, smiled and said, “Let’s go here tomorrow and hope for a good result.”

Su Yuanyuan saw that the university was very close to the place where the junior director was doing auditions and immediately stopped making any noise. It was just right to go there, so she didn’t have to sneak out.

At first, both of them thought that sleeping in the same bed with each other would be awkward at first, but unexpectedly, they fell asleep quickly and slept very soundly until dawn. Upon waking up, Fang Lizhe smiled and kissed Su Yuanyuan. “It seems that we were destined to meet each other.”

After saying that he himself felt a little dumbstruck before he laughed at himself as he lifted the quilt and carried Su Yuanyuan to wash up and eat.

Later, Su Yuanyuan had to follow him when he went out. Fang Lizhe had no choice but to take her with him, and she was told multiple times not to run around. Su Yuanyuan naturally understood what he was saying, but when Fang Lizhe went to the bathroom, she rushed to the room rented by the junior director for auditions.

Chen Zhou, the junior director, and Liu Lan, the screenwriter, were a couple. They used to have great enthusiasm for this film, but they lost their excitement for the film when they kept having to face obstacles at every turn. Even after waiting all morning, no one came for an audition. Liu Lan disappointedly squeezed the script and said, “Chan Zhou, let’s forget it. Maybe the script I wrote is really bad and not mainstream, so no one wants to read it. Let’s stop wasting time.”

Chan Zhou knocked on the table in annoyance, “No! It’s your painstaking effort, and I must film it. Besides, I think your writing is very good. As long as I film it, it will definitely blow up!”

“But…”

Before Liu Lan finished speaking, she suddenly saw a little Pomeranian barging in and backing up in panic when it saw them, as if it had gone the wrong way. Liu Lan’s eyes lit up and he tugged Chan Zhou’s hand and pointed at it, “Look at that! It’s so cute! Is it exactly the same as what I wrote? No, it’s even cuter than what I wrote!”

She immediately stood up and walked toward Su Yuanyuan, who pretended to be frightened. After she got closer, it suddenly became stiff and plopped down.

Liu Lan was stunned, and then couldn’t stop laughing. “Chen Zhou, Chen Zhou, look! It can actually play dead. Hahaha too cute, so there really is such a cute and adorable puppy huh?”

Chen Zhou’s eyes lit up, too. He approached Su Yuanyuan, and Su Yuanyuan immediately moved back quietly, still maintaining the state of playing dead. How cute is that? It simply could make people melt. Chen Zhou clapped his hands with a smile, “That’s it! It can definitely play Susu well! Come on! Let’s find out where its owner is. If we can get it to act, we’re halfway there!”

Su Yuanyuan laughed in her heart when she heard it, and sure enough, she could fix everything as soon as she got out. Then, she slowly retreated to the door, jumped up and ran outside. Chen Zhou and Liu Lan naturally followed her and ran to the university gate in a hurry.

Fang Lizhe was anxiously looking for Su Yuanyuan everywhere. When he saw them chasing Su Yuanyuan back, he immediately hugged Su Yuanyuan, frowned and warned, “Why are you chasing my Xiaobai? Is something wrong?”

Chan Zhou froze when he saw him, then pointed at Su Yuanyuan and asked, “Agent Fang, is this… Is this your pet?”
