Rong Liya was eager to see if her phone had really received the video.
But threatened by Chen Zao, she dared not make any more requests.
"Hurry up and drink! My patience is limited!"
Chen Zao was nearly driven mad by Rong Liya's persistence and felt like forcing the drink down her throat.
With no other choice, Rong Liya took a deep breath, pinched her nose, and gulped down the Medicinal Liquor.
She didn't even dare to taste the liquid in her mouth; she simply tilted her head back and swallowed it whole.
Unlike Chen Zao, who was already accustomed to the taste of Medicinal Liquor, this was Rong Liya's first time drinking such a high concentration of Beast Oil Tonic.
As the strong liquor and Beast Oil exploded in her stomach, which suffered from chronic gastritis, Rong Liya felt as if a fiery beast had erupted inside her, clawing and tearing at her insides!
"Ah!!!"
Sweating profusely, Rong Liya cried out in pain and crouched down, hugging her legs, trying to curl up into a ball.
"If you're really feeling unwell, just throw up. You don't have to force yourself. My Medicinal Liquor is potent; most people can't handle it."
Chen Zao guessed that Rong Liya would surely vomit because when he first drank Beast Oil, he had been tricked into consuming a diluted version that was slightly too strong, and he ended up throwing up immediately.
The shocking tearing sensation from that experience was something Chen Zao would never forget.
It felt like a scalding bolt of lightning had split through his body, threatening to tear him apart.
Only after drinking much lower concentrations of Beast Oil for a long time did he manage to adapt to its effects on his body.
Today, giving Rong Liya this concentration of Beast Oil, Chen Zao had anticipated that she would have a terrible vomiting episode.
However, unexpectedly, Rong Liya's resistance turned out to be even stronger than his.
Squatting on the ground for half a minute, she had been groaning in pain but surprisingly did not vomit!
After enduring the initial reaction period, Rong Liya's body began to feel warmer and more comfortable.
The heat rising from within her body was making her originally snow-white skin turn red.
The constant pain that had tormented her for almost a week, the gastrointestinal cramps, seemed to have vanished in this wave of warmth.
Her previously dizzy mind became clearer and clearer.
It felt like a sudden enlightenment!
She increasingly experienced a refreshing sense of clarity, which was completely different from the unbearable feeling of frustration she had felt before.
The fatigue that had made her drowsy was also swept away.
It was as if she had been reborn, or had just undergone the best spa treatment; she hadn't felt this completely relaxed in a long time!
Everything that suddenly happened felt like an illusion. Rong Liya touched her face and hands, feeling incredibly real, confirming that it was all true!
What on earth was added to this drink that made her feel so good?
She had consumed numerous supplements, but none had ever brought her such shocking comfort.
When she looked at Chen Zao again, Rong Liya's eyes were bright and clear, no longer filled with previous flirtation; her face glowed with vitality and energy.
She exclaimed loudly, "What kind of wine is this? It's amazing!"
She took a sniff, suddenly feeling nauseated by the foul smell emanating from her mouth and body. Rong Liya forced a smile and added, "It just smells a bit bad, but it's really amazing!"
Chen Zao secretly marveled. Rong Liya looked so thin, yet she could endure this!
Such a high concentration of Beast Oil liquor, and she didn't even throw up? She actually enjoyed it?
What a surprise!
He had initially wanted to see Rong Liya suffer and throw up as a way to punish this willful and spoiled star.
But now it seemed that this bottle of Medicinal Liquor was completely enjoyable for Rong Liya.
Chen Zao smiled helplessly.
Since Rong Liya absorbed the Beast Oil so well, he had nothing to worry about.
He stood up and said to Rong Liya, "Now that you're awake, I won't linger here any longer."
He picked up the bottle cap that Rong Liya had thrown on the ground, capped the bottle, put on his baseball cap, and pretended to leave. Before he walked away, he reminded Rong Liya, "If Qin Sheng gives you trouble after his birthday, have him find me at the food street in Gubei Film City. My Meat Sandwich Shop is called Braised Meat Sandwich; I'll be waiting for him there."
Rong Liya was already used to Chen Zao's crazy tone.
She wanted to remind Chen Zao once more that Qin Sheng was truly not someone to mess with and that he should prepare himself.
But thinking about Chen Zao's insane arrogance, she felt it unnecessary to waste her breath on him.
She knew Chen Zao wouldn't listen anyway.
"Thank you."
Rong Liya sincerely thanked Chen Zao for the first time tonight.
"You don't need to rush to thank me. Do you have any more scenes to shoot in the next two or three days? Are there any kissing scenes with male characters? You don't have a boyfriend in real life, do you?"
Rong Liya felt a tightness in her chest. Why was Chen Zao suddenly asking her this?
Could he be stalking her?
She seemed to sense a hint of something perverse from Chen Zao, and she didn't dare to answer recklessly.
Chen Zao wasn't really interested in hearing Rong Liya's response. He smiled and said, "I forgot to mention earlier, my Medicinal Liquor is great everywhere except for its smell. After drinking my liquor, you should expect that foul odor to linger in your mouth for the next two or three days, no matter how much you brush your teeth; everything will taste bad. The sweat on your body will also smell particularly awful. I suggest you avoid going out for work and just stay home for a while, so you don't scare anyone. You definitely can't do kissing scenes with male actors; even if it's staged, you'll end up making them feel nauseous. If you have a boyfriend, I recommend not meeting him privately; otherwise, you'll leave him with an unforgettable stench memory, heh heh."
Imagining such a scene, Chen Zao actually laughed maliciously.
Rong Liya was dumbfounded. Was this guy serious or just messing with her? She felt inexplicably stinky already.
Without lingering any longer, Chen Zao walked toward the balcony, waving his hand at Rong Liya without looking back. "You don't need to see me off. I hope we won't meet again; just a quick farewell."
"The door is over there!"
As Rong Liya reminded Chen Zao, his figure had already disappeared into the night on the balcony.
In the living room filled with the smell of blood and foul odors, only Rong Liya remained.
Suddenly, Rong Liya shivered. It felt like a dream; she could hardly tell whether Chen Zao was human, ghost, demon, or fairy. How could there be such an eccentric person in this world? Truly, the world is vast and full of wonders!
She couldn't afford to dwell on the mental shock brought by Chen Zao. The bloody mess in the room made her feel an overwhelming chill inside.
The previously unstoppable feeling of enlightenment gradually faded away.
Instead, the gradually returning effects of alcohol were not unpleasant.
It was the foul smell in her mouth and on her body that truly made Rong Liya uncomfortable.
What troubled her even more was the beastly behavior of Qin Sheng that night; her future and prospects could potentially be ruined by that bastard!
Thinking of the video that felt like a lifeline, Rong Liya hurried to the bar to check her phone.
Chen Zao had indeed kept his word and sent her the video.
This brought a strange warmth to Rong Liya's ice-cold heart.
Watching Qin Sheng's beastly actions in the video, she felt as if her heart was being torn apart.
She deeply regretted associating with a cultured scoundrel like Qin Sheng!
She couldn't even imagine what the outcome would have been if this night had not been saved by Chen Zao, the star-gazing pervert!
Sighing heavily, Rong Liya called her assistant Song Jing, asking her to drive overnight to take her to the county hospital.
She needed to recount everything that happened that night to Rong Zhe, seeking his advice to help her through this ordeal.
