    ?

    In the luxuriously decorated hotel, the round steam waiter machine shuttled among the chatting and laughing crowd with wine glasses.

    "The attendance rate of yesterday's performance dropped by a quarter. I think this is affected by the content of the second act of "Lake of the Giants."

    "During the two days after the second act was released, we received at least ten anonymous threatening letters, all without exception, asking us to delete the part about Liang Hui, the watch apprentice, and replace it with someone else as Jane's companion. OK  In yesterday's scene, Liang's role started to go back to normal."

    "Dorothy? Are you listening? Dorothy?"

    Dorothy was a little absent-minded, she sighed, and inserted her fingers into her long rose-red hair in distress: "Yes, manager, I'm listening."

    The performance manager of the Black Rose Theater is a balding middle-aged man with a fat belly that almost tears his white shirt.

    "Such a major performance accident is unique in your acting career, and the show is under a lot of pressure! Last night's performance was not a big problem, just highlight the positive image of the steam princess, don't call that Liang again  Show off."

    Dorothy's face suddenly became serious: "Don't interfere with my performance, don't touch my actors, is this what is expressly stipulated in the contract?"

    The performance manager raised his hand: "Okay, okay, I won't mention it."

    He tidied up the messy documents on the table, and suddenly said: "In a few days, all the performances in San Francisco will be over. Mr. Mayor would like to invite you to the banquet that night, which will be held at the Tower of Eros."

    "What kind of banquet is it?"

    asked Dorothy.

    "The fifth anniversary of the completion of the San Francisco Maritime Railway. Enfield Company, which is in charge of this project, has won a high reputation in the industry not long ago because of the protection design of the dangerous section. Enfield Company strikes while the iron is hot and wants to take advantage of this dinner  , contributed to a professional award called the "Enfield Steam Award", and presented a high reward of 5,000 US dollars to their chief engineer Robert."

    Dorothy laughed when she heard this: "Give the award to yourself? Isn't that funny?"

    "In recent years, Robert has made achievements in many fields of triathlon application. Many people call him the most amazing steam rookie in the past ten years. Enfield awarded him the award, which is not aimless."

    "Dorothy." The girl in the gypsy hat came over: "It's time for your lunch break."

    "In that case, I won't bother."

    The manager stood up tactfully.

    "I'm really sorry. As for the banquet you mentioned, I will attend it on time after the performance."

    The bald manager nodded and said, "Then it's settled."

    After seeing off the theater manager, Dorothy put on her sun hat and skirt and went upstairs.

    Menchi was unscrewed, and Dorothy raised her head, subconsciously exclaiming.

    Li Yan, who was wearing a blue woolen sweater, was sitting on a rattan chair, holding a photo album and looking at it with gusto.

    The girl behind Dorothy opened her mouth to shout, but Dorothy covered her mouth.

    "You go out first, tell others that I am asleep, and tell them not to disturb me."

    The girl nodded suspiciously.  Dorothy let go of her hand, stepped into the room, and closed the door with her slender fingers.

    "Sir, your behavior is too rude."

    Dorothy feigned anger.

    "The guards here won't let me in. Do you want me to make a big deal about Dorothy dating a Chinese man in a hotel?"

    "Then why did you flip through my photo album?"

    Dorothy was reluctant.

    Only then did Li Yan close the album: "I'm sorry, I can't be idle."

    "well, I forgive you."

    Dorothy sat by the bed, took off a few hairpins, and said, "You didn't come to the performance yesterday, and Liang Hui behaved like an idiot, and Jane almost went crazy."

    "Then yesterday's performance must have been good."

    Li Yan joked.

    Dorothy thought about it for a while: "I know, you and your comrades have been in trouble recently. I can assure you that not everyone in this city has ill intentions for you. If there is anything I can do to help  place, just open your mouth."

    "Dorothy, there are no knots and unties in this world, let's talk about something else, for example, how are you thinking?"

    Dorothy was silent for a while, and then said: "I still hope that you can drive it away for me, I have had enough."

    "Even if you lose your?Is it a high-profile position?  "

    Dorothy nodded wearily but firmly: "I'm really tired, this tour is over, I want to give myself a vacation, as for future performances"

    She tilted her head playfully: "It's not all the credit for those celebrities to pursue me. In many cases, Dorothy's signature is much more important than Dorothy's performance. With my previous background, I can fool around casually."  A few years, it¡¯s just a gimmick, and I¡¯ll retire when I earn enough.¡±

    Li Yan laughed loudly after hearing this: "I like you a little bit, Miss Dorothy."

    "Mr. Li Yan." With loose hair, Dorothy walked to the front of the vanity mirror and faced Li Yan. Amidst her natural and beautiful facial features, there was a trace of unresolved depression and fear: "Please help me."

    A dense black mist rolled out of the mirror, and a fur cloak emerged from the mist.

    "I want to talk to you."

    Li Yan spoke.

    A black tentacle protruded from the makeup mirror and wrapped itself around Dorothy's neck. Li Yan's eyes sharpened, and the white dragon came first after breathing out fog, causing the tentacle to shrink back.

    The black mist seemed to be stimulated, and it burst out of the mirror suddenly. A gloomy cloak emerged from Dorothy's shoulders.  Weird stuff.

    Dorothy's face was pale, she closed her eyes tightly in fright, and couldn't help trembling. Slowly, Dorothy's eyelids stopped trembling, and she fainted.

    "Are you going to offend me for this lost soul? Outer God?"

    Behind Dorothy, the voice under the black mist cloak was hoarse and unpleasant.

    Li Yan was silent for a while, he spread his hand, and there was a drop of golden water lying quietly.

    Forgive soul water.

    The room was silent, but Li Yan could feel an indescribable surging emotion, mixed with surprise and fear.

    "Even if you have faced the Wingless Emperor, you cannot protect her forever."

    The voice under the cloak cooled down.

    "I once faced a being who claimed to be a great yogurt. I know that you have no entity and only convey your will to mortals. The will is indelible, but it can be expelled."

    "How dare you compare the survivors of the old emperor with historians?"

    Cloak's voice was hoarse and calm.

    "What is a historian?"

    There was a long silence.

    "The curiosity of the Outer God is ten times stronger than that of the most daring mortals. If you want to explore more, let me see what the Outer God, who can face the Wingless Emperor, has the ability to expel a historian.  "

    As soon as the words fell, the black mist and cloak shrank into the mirror and disappeared, and Dorothy also collapsed limply.

    Li Yan held Dorothy's shoulders and placed her beside the bed.  Looking back, the vanity mirror had broken into dozens of pieces.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
