[R18] These men are poisonous – “These Men Are Poisonous” Chapter 14 [English]

Chapter 14 Yu Haonan

“Sister Zuo Ning, did you really write this novel for Brother Gao Xia?”

Tong Ning’s words instantly silenced everyone at the table. Even Qiu Yibai and the two old actors looked at Zuo Ning curiously.

Zuo Ning was about to explain when he heard Gao Xia say, “Let it be ignored if such rumors spread outside. Let’s not talk nonsense ourselves.”

“It turns out it’s really fake!” Tong Ning seemed to be very disappointed, “I saw that what was said on the Internet was very serious, and it was on the top of the trending search today, and I was thinking of giving Sister Zuo Ning a red line.”

Zuo Ning smiled awkwardly: “What hot search?”

“See for yourself. The highest level of star chasing is to write a book for him and make him my unique leading actor. I can also have close contact with him on the set.”

Zuo Ning opened Weibo and discovered that seven of the top ten hot searches were about the drama “Home”, four of which were related to Gao Xia. There were actually three related to Zuo Ning, one was “Zuo Ning’s most beautiful screenwriter”, one was “Gao Xia Zuo Ning”, and one was “Zuo Ning’s highest level of star chasing”.

This was Zuo Ning’s first public appearance. She was a little surprised because this face was a hot search, but she was even more surprised when he was tied to Gao Xia.

If you think about it carefully, the connection between her and Gao Xia is just that when “Home” was the most popular, a reader asked her who she thought was the most suitable to play Fucheng, and she replied Gao Xia.

As for when she faced the media this morning, she praised Gao Xia for being handsome, good at acting, and being serious and responsible at work. Those were just stage words. Unexpectedly, netizens took them as her confession to Gao Xia.

Zuo Ning smiled helplessly: “If the media deliberately misinterprets it, I can’t help it. Let’s just treat it as promoting this drama.”

Jiang Chunxin, who was diagonally opposite, looked concerned: “But Sister Zuo Ning, I saw that your latest Weibo was scolded by many fans, aren’t you angry?”

“Ever since I wrote the novel, I have been scolded almost every day. If I really care about this, will I still be alive?”

“Sister Zuo Ning, you have such a good attitude. I want to learn from you. How about we take a photo together first?” After Jiang Chunxin finished speaking, she ran over to Zuo Ning and raised her phone to take pictures.

Zuo Ning didn’t like taking selfies, but he couldn’t refuse, so he could only smile in agreement. However, because Jiang Chunxin put his arms around her neck, the tickling feeling was very uncomfortable, so his smile was a little stiff.

“Boom!” The big clock on the wall rang, six o’clock sharp.

There weren’t that many ceremonies to be held. Qiu Yibai just said to the people around him: “Everyone, let’s eat. You can drink more tonight. I’ll deal with the aftermath if you get drunk.”

“Long live Director Qiu!”

“Director Qiu, I love you!”

Amid the noise of the crowd, Jiang Chunxin said sarcastically: “But Mr. Yu hasn’t come yet.”

“It’s okay, Mr. Yu won’t care about this.”

As soon as Qiu Yi finished speaking, a magnetic low voice came: “It seems that Director Qiu understands me very well.”

It seemed that he had heard the voice somewhere. Zuo Ning raised his head and saw a handsome face with an evil smile.

Is he?The man who forcibly kissed her in the villa that night.

Zuo Ning was a little stunned, but Yu Haonan didn’t look surprised at all. Instead, he stared at her without caring about the occasion: “What? You didn’t expect me to come?”

This sentence caused everyone present to look over curiously.

Zuo Ning smiled unnaturally: “Hello, Mr. Yu.”

“Our relationship is so close, why do we still call him Mr. Yu?” The smile on his face was a little frivolous, but also a little proud, “You clearly know that I came to this opening party for you.”

This time, not only the people at Zuo Ning’s table were surprised, but also the tables next door fell silent one after another and all looked this way.

Yu Haonan seemed very satisfied with the effect. He raised his hand towards Qiu Yibai and said with a smile, “Director Qiu, give up your position?”

Qiu Yibai was unhappy, but couldn’t say anything. He could only move his seat silently and sit next to Jiang Chunxin, who had already looked ugly.

As soon as Yu Haonan sat down, he put his right hand on Zuo Ning’s shoulder and whispered in her ear: “I have been looking for you. If I hadn’t seen the news today, I wouldn’t have known you were so close to me.”

The hot breath tickled his ears, and being stared at by so many pairs of eyes made Zuo Ning feel uncomfortable all over, but he couldn’t get rid of the hand on her shoulder.

Staring at him angrily, she whispered: “What do you want?”

“My head still hurts, what do you think I want?” He stretched out his left hand and gently played with her hair hanging on her shoulders. This action seemed so intimate.

Qiu Yibai and Gao Xia obviously had dark faces, but they could only hold back and look at them quietly.

“You deserve it. Who asked you… who asked you to use alcohol to act like a gangster?”

“I don’t mind playing badass again in front of everyone tonight.”

After he finished speaking, he actually leaned his face closer, which scared Zuo Ning and whispered: “What do you want?

”
“Stay with me for one night.”

“You’re dreaming!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you. I just have a few questions and I want you to give me answers.”

Seeing that he’s expression turned serious, Zuo Ning hesitated for a moment and nodded: “Then…then ten minutes. After you ask, I will go back with everyone.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Seeing him suddenly stand up from his seat, Zuo Ning was startled again. She didn’t expect that he actually left immediately, but now that he left with him in public, wasn’t it completely unclear to her?

Ignoring her hesitation, Yu Haonan bent down and put his arms around her waist, pulled her up directly, and then said to Qiu Yi in vain: “She and I have something to talk about.”

Zuo Ning was half-carried and half-dragged by her to a private room on the second floor. The moment the private room door was locked by him, she still felt panicked for no reason.

Why should you trust this man?If he wants to do something to her, she can’t resist at all.

“You said… you wouldn’t touch me.”

Yu Haonan leaned on the window sill, took out a cigarette and lit it, took two deep puffs before looking at Zuo Ning carefully, and said slowly: “Your pen name is Zuo Ning, your real name is also Zuo Ning, your surname is Zuo?”

Isn’t this nonsense?Zuo Ning wanted to roll his eyes, but he nodded honestly: “Yes.”

“Has your last name always been Zuo? Never changed your last name?”

He’s question is really strange, but Zuo Ning can only answer bravely: “Yes, I have been called this name since I was born. If you don’t believe it, I will go upstairs to get you an ID card.”

“No need.” He lowered his head, his eyes seemed a little lonely in the smoke.

“Well… I really didn’t mean to do it that night. Besides, I took you to the hospital and left after asking the doctor that you were fine.”

“I know.” After a pause, he seemed to remember something and looked at her again, “What are you doing in that villa area?”

Zuo Ning was very displeased with he’s tone of interrogating a prisoner. Did he want to ridicule her for not being qualified to go to such a wealthy area?

“I didn’t do much. I passed by by chance and got lost. I went in to see the mansion and give myself some motivation to work hard to make money.”

“Does the novel you write have a prototype?”

“Prototype? I guess there is. I started out by writing historical novels, and the prototypes are of course various historical figures. As for other things, I also refer to some of the things I have seen around me, or the news I searched online. I know there are too many people writing novels now, and there may be occasional conflicts, but Mr. Yu can rest assured that my novel is absolutely original and will not cause lawsuits.”

This time, Yu Haonan stopped talking and just kept lowering his head and smoking. The smoky environment made Zuo Ning cough twice and simply turned around and left.

Looking at her back, he suddenly said: “Do you like a mansion like that?”

“Huh?” Zuo Ning didn’t understand.

He looked at her with a very serious look: “Follow me from now on, and I can give you any mansion you want.”

Zuo Ning was stunned for two seconds before suddenly sneering: “Mr. Yu, are you trying to support me?”

Before he could answer, she shook her head again: “It seems that I have to thank Mr. Yu for looking up to me, but I am not blessed enough to enjoy those things. Mr. Yu should leave it to those who are willing to enjoy it.”
