Shocking! The actress was dragged to the regent's bedchamber every night.

After thinking for two seconds, Su Wuli immediately dialed Lin Liwen's number.

It rang three times before being answered.

"The medicine will arrive tomorrow, don't worry," Lin Liwen's voice came through the receiver.

"It's not about the medicine." She switched the phone to her other ear.

His fingers rested on the edge of the table, tapping lightly unconsciously due to his excitement.

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and Lin Liwen remained silent for a moment, seemingly waiting for her to continue.

Without any preamble, Su Wuli asked directly, "Sister Wen, can you help me find someone? The author of the novel 'Meeting Mountains and Rivers,' Qingqing Zijin."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Lin Liwen glanced at the time; it was late at night.

Before speaking, Su Wuli considered several possibilities: the contract renewal, the endorsement, and what new developments had occurred online.

I never thought of this one.

Looking for novel authors.

"Is this novel going to be adapted into a TV series?"

Lin Liwen couldn't help but ask, "How come I haven't heard anything about this? Which film and television company is in contact? Who is the copyright holder? Where did you hear this from?"

Su Wuli replied eagerly, "It's not about filming a drama; we just want to find an author."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Lin Liwen remained silent for a moment, as there was neither news of a film or television adaptation nor any commercial collaboration.

Is it simply that you want to find someone?

Although she was puzzled, she replied, "Okay, I'll try to think of a solution for you."

Without asking any further questions, the call ended.

Su Wuli took the phone away from her ear and held it in her hand.

I didn't sleep well that night; I was so excited that I didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning.

After falling asleep, she immediately had a dream in which she found the author and successfully changed the ending of Yu Chen's story.

Everything is going smooth.

…………

The next morning, Lin Liwen sent a message.

A phone number, an address.

Su Wuli looked at the line of text, immediately copied the number, and dialed it.

The phone rang many times, but no one answered.

She couldn't help but dial again, but still no one answered.

I made more than a dozen phone calls, but no one answered.

Left with no other option, Su Wuli edited a short message explaining her purpose and sent it over.

There was no response.

During the waiting time, Su Wuli couldn't contain herself any longer and finally...

I called Lin Liwen.

No one answered.

Lin Liwen paused for a moment on the other end of the phone, "I'll try using the company landline for you. We don't answer unknown numbers, so the landline might be different."

"it is good."

Lin Liwen told me to wait for her message and then hung up.

Not long after, Lin Liwen called back, "No one answered. I called the landline and the mobile phone, but no one answered."

She paused for a moment, then said, "Perhaps the author didn't want to be disturbed, or maybe something happened."

Su Wuli took the phone away from her ear and looked at the number on the screen.

He paused for a moment with his finger hovering over the dial button, then flipped the phone over and placed it face down on the table.

After thinking for a moment, he quickly made a decision.

Su Wuli didn't want to wait any longer.

She checked the city where Qingqing Zijin lived; it was more than two hours by plane.

She didn't know if she would be able to meet the person, or if she would agree to meet them.

But she had to go.

Su Wuli quickly dialed Lin Liwen's number again, "I need to go find her."

"Where to?" Lin Liwen's voice came through the receiver, slow and hesitant, as if she hadn't quite caught up yet.

"I went to the author's city to find her."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Lin Liwen put down what she was holding and asked, puzzled, "Why do you insist on finding her? What's wrong?"

"I have something very important to do." Su Wuli's voice was not loud, but extremely firm. "It can't be delayed for even a moment."

Lin Liwen remained silent for a moment.

She had known Su Wuli for so long, from her debut until now, and she had rarely heard her speak in this tone.

She didn't know why Su Wuli wanted to find a novelist.

But Lin Liwen knew she couldn't stop them.

"I won't stop you," Lin Liwen relented, "but you can't go alone. Have Su Yuan come with you; it'll be good to have someone to look after you in an unfamiliar city."

"Okay," Su Wuli agreed. "Thank you, Sister Wen."

"be safe."

"Um."

After hanging up the phone, Su Wuli immediately went back to the sofa, sat down, and booked a plane ticket on her phone.

He sent another message to Su Yuan, telling her the departure time.

Su Yuan replied with a "Received" emoji.

I didn't ask her what she was going to do.

…………

The next morning, Su Wuli wore a black hoodie with the hood pulled up over her head.

Wearing a mask, only his eyes were visible.

Su Yuan was already waiting downstairs, dragging a suitcase in her hand. She was stunned for a moment when she saw her come out.

I guess I've never seen her dressed like this before.

Su Wuli didn't say anything, opened the car door and got in.

Su Yuan followed and sat next to her, and the driver started the car.

On the way to the airport, Su Yuan turned her head to look at her several times, her lips moved slightly, then closed again.

I finally couldn't hold back when we were almost at the airport.

"Kiri, what are we going to find for?"

Su Wuli turned her head to look at her, her face half-covered by a mask.

There were bloodshot veins in those eyes.

"Looking for someone."

Su Yuan looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

She didn't continue speaking, but turned back to look out the window.

Su Yuan shut her mouth and didn't ask any more questions.

The car stopped at the departure level. Su Yuan went to check in her luggage, while Su Wuli stood beside her, looking down at her phone.

The screen displayed Qingqing Zijin's address. She looked at it over and over again before putting her phone back in her pocket.

It was already afternoon when the plane landed.

Su Yuan hailed a car, and Su Wuli handed the address directly to the driver.

The car weaved through the city, turning from main roads into side streets, and finally stopped in front of a row of old residential buildings.

Su Wuli got out of the car and looked up at one of the buildings.

It has six floors and no elevator.

Qingqing Zijin lives on the fourth floor.

Su Yuan followed behind her, and the two of them climbed the stairs one after the other.

Su Wuli stood at the door and raised her hand to knock.

No one answered.

She knocked a few more times, but still nothing.

Su Yuan stepped forward and knocked, calling out, "Is anyone home?"

There was no sound from inside.

Su Wuli took a step back, leaned against the corridor railing, and put her hands in her pockets. "Wait a little longer."

"Mm." Su Yuan leaned her suitcase against the wall and stood next to her.

However, they waited from afternoon until dark, but no one came.

At nine o'clock, the door next door suddenly opened.

A middle-aged woman peeked out, carrying a garbage bag in her hand.

He saw the two of them standing in the corridor and glanced at them.

Then he turned and walked towards the stairwell.

Su Wuli quickly called out to her, "Excuse me, do you know when the person next door will be back?"
