"Still here?" Yao Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment. She thought of the times Dugu Ling saved her. It was he who chased her out of the lake in the morning. Could it be that Dugu Ling was really her protector?

By the time Yao Xiaoyan reacted, the old lady and the old man had already disappeared. The sky was gradually darkening as Yao Xiaoyan walked out of the scenic area as she was afraid of the worry lake behind her.

She was afraid of disturbing Yao Xiaoyan's sleep, so she went shopping with the film crew and bought a lot of snacks. She wanted to eat with Yao Xiaoyan, but when she returned to her room, she found that Yao Xiaoyan was not there. She searched the entire hotel but could not find her.

"Xiaobai, let's go eat together. We'll have a meal together tonight." Zhao Xiaoyan's assistant came to call for Bai Xiaobai.

The idea of having a dinner was the director's idea. Dugu Ling lost his temper in the morning and everyone in the crew was very nervous. The director wanted to make use of this chance to have a meal to ease up the mood.

"My family's Yan Yan Yan hasn't come back yet. I have to go out and find her." As Bai Xiaobai spoke, he ran out of the hotel.

When Bai Xiaobai ran out of the hotel, Dugu Ling and Huzi happened to walk out of the elevator. Bai Xiaobai was a bit plump, and his actions were very eye-catching.

"It's Yao Xiaoyan's assistant, Bai Xiaobai. Something seems to have happened." Seeing that she was trying to curry favor with Dugu Ling, Hu Zi asked.

Dugu Ling stood there, not in a hurry to go to the cafeteria. He seemed to be waiting for something. After a while, Bai Xiaobai supported Yao Xiaoyan and limped in.

Yao Xiaoyan was in a somewhat sorry state. There was some black mud on her body and her feet were dirty. As she walked, she bent down as if her feet were injured. She walked very slowly and her face was pale.

Dugu Ling's eyes suddenly turned dark. Why couldn't he sense that Yao Xiaoyan was in danger?!

Hu Zi glanced at Dugu Ling, and deliberately stepped forward to ask, "Aiya, Miss Yao, what's going on? How did your foot get injured? "

Bai Xiaobai seemed to be very angry and could not help but scold, "Yan Yan went to that lake again and fell down by the lake. You know, that lake is very close to yours, what are you going to do there if you have nothing to do?"

The first half of Bai Xiao's sentence was to answer Hu Zi, while the second half was to blame Yao Xiaoyan.

Yao Xiaoyan raised her head and saw Dugu Ling. She thought that Dugu Ling might be the one who would be able to protect her and couldn't help but smile at him.

Yao Xiaoyan's face was pale, and her smile was particularly tender, causing Dugu Ling to feel his heart clogging up. His expression was terrible, and he resisted the urge to rush over to hug the woman to give her warmth, walking straight into the dining room.

Yao Xiaoyan's smile froze on her face. She looked at Dugu Ling's back and helplessly bit his lips.

Dugu Ling was an extremely cold and aloof existence to her. Even if he could protect her, how could he be willing?

Hu Zi let out a sigh in his heart and silently cursed, "The boss is an old monster. Why is it so awkward to treat women like this?"

"Miss Yao, let's hurry back to our room to rest." Hu Zi signaled Bai Xiao Bai to help Yao Xiaoyan get some rest.

Bai Xiaobai nodded and helped Yao Xiaoyan up the elevator.

The director and Zhao Xiao Ya were already there, waiting for Dugu Ling.

Dugu Ling walked into the restaurant with a cold face. The director immediately shouted at him, "Emperor Dugu, quickly sit here, hehe ~"

Zhao Xiao Ya also smiled and nodded at Dugu Ling.

As if he didn't see the two of them, Dugu Ling turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

"Huh?" The director was taken aback. He looked at Zhao Xiao Ya with a puzzled expression, "Where is the movie emperor going?"

Zhao Xiao Ya shook her head.

"Are you still angry?" The director sat down and said nervously, "Such a big accident was indeed a big deal. Who knew that Yao Xiaoyan was so stupid that she could overturn it even when she was on a boat!"

Zhao Xiaoyan's attitude suddenly turned cold, "Director, with your attitude, even if it's the Monarch Dugu, she won't be able to solve the problem."

Zhao Xiao Ya stood up and took her bag, "I've finished eating. Goodbye."

"…" The director was speechless. It was as if the empress was defending Yao Xiaoyan. Since when did she become so familiar with Yao Xiaoyan?

Not long after Zhao Xiao Ya left the restaurant, Shi Jia Ying followed her out.

"Sister Zhao …" Shi Jiayin stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Sister Zhao, why do you seem to be helping Yao Xiaoyan? Aren't you …"

Zhao Xiao Ya turned around and looked at Shi Jia Ying. The look in her eyes made Shi Jia Ying's hair stand on end.

"About that, I was just about to toast the director when I happened to hear what you said to the director, so I didn't intend to eavesdrop." Shi Jiayin quickly explained.

"Jiayin, Yao Xiaoyan will be my little sister from now on. Just like you, do you understand what I mean?" Zhao Xiaoya said with a faint smile.

Shi Jiayin's heart tightened. Previously, she had found out that Dugu Ling had treated Yao Xiaoyan very differently and had specifically told Zhao Xiaoyan that she wanted his to deal with Yao Xiaoyan. But Zhao Xiaoyan actually said that she treated Yao Xiaoyan as her younger sister?

"Sister Zhao, Dugu Xingfeng, he …" Shi Jiayin still wanted to convince Zhao Xiao Ya that this spear was not that good and almost took her position as the mistress, but Shi Jia Ying still wanted to try.

"Jiayin, when I set out on my path, you were still in middle school." "You can't hide your intentions from me."

Shi Jiayin's face turned red and she was left speechless.

"However, I still have to thank you." Zhao Xiao Ya's eyes became gloomy, "If I didn't meet Yao Xiao Yan, perhaps I would have harmed …"

"Sister Zhao, what did you say?" Shi Jia Ying looked at Zhao Xiao Ya with a puzzled expression.

"Just remember, from now on, Yao Xiaoyan is my little sister. If you don't get along with her, then you're going to get along with me. You better take care of yourself." After saying that, Zhao Xiao Ya stepped onto her 10 cm high heels and directly entered the elevator.

Shi Jiayin bit her lips. At first, she thought that the reason she told Zhao Xiao Ya about Yao Xiaoyan was to find a gun. However, she didn't expect that it was to find a backer for Yao Xiao Yan.

Shi Jiayin stomped her foot fiercely but when she thought of Yao Xiaoyan, she couldn't help but sneer. "Even if I didn't create trouble for her with that kind of trouble, she wouldn't be able to stop it."

Dugu Ling arrived at the lakeside. The sky had already darkened, and the lakeside was growing more and more gloomy. The lakeside was completely dark, and if one looked at the lakeside, they would feel suffocated.

Dugu Ling knitted his brows. Earlier, when Yao Xiaoyan was almost dragged down, he did not sense her presence at all. He looked back at the distance between the lake and the hotel. It was a bit far, but she shouldn't have been completely oblivious.

Dugu Ling slowly approached the lake and frowned coldly. His dark green eyes suddenly turned blood-red and the lake water slowly started to churn. His gaze penetrated the dark and heavy lake water and directly reached the bottom of the lake where the white-clothed female ghost was curling up and shivering.

The white-clothed female ghost's hair scattered in all directions at the bottom of the lake, causing the color of the lake to darken. When the white-clothed female ghost was forced to raise his head due to Dugu Ling's immense pressure, Dugu Ling saw the Water Repelling Pearl hanging around his neck.

"Water-Repellent Pearl?" His eyes darkened as he suddenly thought of something.
