After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 101 Jealousy Makes People Ruthless
Let's rewind ten minutes.

Yan Yu, who was moving freely among the guests, suddenly smelled a fragrant breeze.

Very subtle, fleeting.

Then he started to feel dizzy and gradually became distracted.

His agent, who had worked with him for many years, noticed almost immediately that something was wrong with him. Then, taking the opportunity to hand him juice, the agent whispered, "Yan Yu, you don't look well. Why don't you go to the lounge on the second floor to rest?"

Yan Yuxing's eyes were slightly dazed: "No need, I might just have caught a cold. I'm the main character today, it's not appropriate for me to leave—those people on the second floor seem to dislike each other, going up there would only make me more uncomfortable."

“But you look like…” the agent thought for a moment, “The last part of the birthday plan is a magic show, the really popular ‘disappearing act’. How about I arrange to move that magic show forward, and then use that opportunity to switch you with someone else so you can get some rest?”

Yan Yu felt his energy waning and nodded.

Then, while his agent went downstairs to prepare, he forced himself to drink a glass of juice to refresh himself and continued chatting with people.

The host is also a shrewd person who has been in the entertainment industry for many years.

He noticed that Yan Yu wasn't in good spirits, so he pulled him away from the group of celebrities and back to the center of the banquet hall: "There are fewer people here, and the air is better. Why don't you chat with your millions of fans here a bit longer?"

Yan Yu nodded.

Seeing this, the surrounding livestreamers once again zoomed in on Yan Yu with their cameras—

The young man seemed somewhat tired, but that tiredness did not diminish his handsomeness in the slightest; instead, it added a gentle and obedient quality to his appearance.

The host asked with a smile, "Yan Yu, the connection between you, Li Yubai, and the Crown Prince of FY is truly amazing! Just minutes after your official announcement, Li Yubai and the Crown Prince also made their official announcements one after another... Did you two plan this together?"

Yan Yu did not follow Weibo.

However, he only paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Some things don't need to be agreed upon beforehand."

"So what do you want to say about their official announcement?"

Yan Yu tilted his head and thought for a moment, then sneered, "Jealousy makes people stop at nothing, I have nothing to say."

host:"……"

The host changed the subject: "Now that Yan Yu is an adult, will you be taking on some romantic roles? There are rumors in the industry that you are preparing to switch to romantic dramas."

Yan Yu leaned over and picked a handful of baby's breath, playing with it in his hand. He casually remarked, "I'm planning to take on some diverse romance dramas, but I refuse any intimate scenes. Host, you have a sharp eye. Tell me, if I train in the entertainment industry for a couple of years, is it possible for me to outshine the most beautiful woman in the capital and that femme fatale prince?"

The host didn't dare to respond to that!
[Haha! My husband Yan Yu should just stay this pure and innocent! Why bother trying to emulate the ascetic beauty Li Yu Bai or the legendary femme fatale prince?]

I can't imagine how many people this pure and adorable young man will seduce if he's transformed into a seductive and sexy figure by the entertainment industry someday!

……

The host cleared his throat: "Yan Yu, you're already the dream of millions of fans! — Speaking of romance dramas, I heard you've taken on a big production by Director Chen called 'The Banquet of Gods.' When will filming begin?"

"It'll be summer vacation," Yan Yu said with a hint of helplessness. "We haven't found a suitable female supporting character yet."

"Oh? I heard that he auditioned for every actor in the entertainment industry, from top to bottom, all wanting to play your beloved supporting role. But you weren't satisfied with any of them..."

“Since she’s my white moonlight,” Yan Yu retorted, “shouldn’t I be captivated by her at first sight? If I have no feelings for them, I won’t be able to get into the mood.”

The host smiled wryly: "Alright, alright! Whatever you say! So, what are your plans after the birthday party?"

"I should take a few days off to go out and find some inspiration," Yan Yu said, as the dizziness in her head became more and more pronounced, and she couldn't help but gently rub her temples.

Just then, the agent, having arranged everything, walked over.

Then he whispered a few words in the host's ear. The host nodded and stood on the stage: "Thank you to all the celebrities for their wonderful performances! It's also a pleasure to have all these social elites enjoying themselves tonight! Now we will have the last program of the birthday banquet - the 'Spatial Human Transfer Technique' magic show, personally planned by Yan Yu's host, the puppeteer, and meticulously crafted by the world's number one magic troupe! And our protagonist today, Yan Shen, has been temporarily chosen as a guest to assist the magic troupe in their performance!"

[Haha! Besides the music and film industries, is my husband going to venture into the world of magic?]

[Puppets! Puppets are everywhere! Jealousy has distorted my appearance! I want to marry a puppet and inherit his several male gods...]

[Yan Yu's husband is so incredibly thoughtful! He even performed magic for us after the show! I love him so much!]

……

On stage, after a few minutes of setup, Yan Yu walked through a prop door amidst the star-studded audience. Then, with a flourish, the magician revealed a red-haired stranger in his thirties when the door opened again!

The red-haired man, dressed in a magic troupe costume, appeared with a wicked smile and immediately performed a highly difficult flexibility act, drawing rounds of applause!
No one saw the magician's momentary bewilderment.

Just then, Jiang Shu, having resolved the internal conflict, leaned halfway out from the second floor and looked down:

"Hey, where's Yan Yu?"

Downstairs in the lobby, amidst the bustling banquet, the agent, taking a moment when no one was looking, asked the red-haired man, "Where's Yan Yu?"

A strange light flashed in the red-haired man's eyes as he softly replied, "Young Master Yan has already gone back to rest. He asked me to tell you that he's going on vacation, so don't disturb him these next few days, and don't tell anyone."

The agent, unsuspecting, knew this wasn't the first time his young master had gone missing. He nodded and said, "Understood."

The red-haired man started performing another hot dance! His dance moves were mesmerizing and enchanting, drawing countless applause!

Amidst the applause, Jiang Shuchen, sitting on the second floor, looked up, puzzled, at the red-haired man on the stage…

Behind him, Feng Li leaned in with a sarcastic tone: "You're also infatuated with this kind of old and crazy man?"

“No.” Jiang Shu said thoughtfully, “He… looks a bit like Uncle Zhou from my village!… But Uncle Zhou isn’t this young; his face is so wrinkled you could trap a mosquito!”

If I can't figure it out, then I'll stop thinking about it!

Jiang Shu sighed softly, "This is my first time seeing a live magic show... It's really amazing!"

In the hall, amidst waves of applause, the red-haired man gracefully bowed in thanks and turned into the prop door. The magician, still somewhat bewildered, reflexively made another transition with a flick of his sleeve.

When the prop door opened again, there was no one there, only a cluster of vibrant violets, delicate and beautiful.

The host's voice was filled with enthusiasm: "Distinguished guests present! And our viewers watching the live stream! The birthday banquet has now come to a close! Please keep your love for Yan Yu alive and join him on his next adventure!"

As the soothing music of the curtain call began to play, numerous bodyguards entered, maintaining order and politely seeing the guests off…

Half an hour later, the birthday banquet hall was finally empty!
Jiang Shu and the others slowly came down from the second floor.

The agent was looking down and crossing out Yan Yu's schedule for the next few days.

Jiang Shu asked, "Where's your Yan Yu?"

The agent quickly replied, "He's gone back to rest! He said he's going on vacation soon and told us not to bother him unless it's absolutely necessary."

Vacation...

Jiang Shu thought of the agreement she had recently made with several men to "separate for a few days," nodded knowingly, and stopped thinking about it.

As night deepened, among the crowds leaving the island, a group of magicians carrying a large box separated from the main group and gradually blended into the night.
