Chapter 29.2
Cheng Yu and Lin An Lan went back to the hotel, but just after they entered their respective rooms, Cheng Yu got a call.
“Jiang Xu tried to call Mr. Lin today too, but Mr. Lin hasn’t removed him from the blacklis yett.”
Cheng Yu smiled lightly, “That’s good.”
“But he also called Zhuo Siya.”
“For how long?”
“Zhuo Siya didn’t answer this time. He answered it previously twice, but both calls ended within 30 seconds.”
Cheng Yu was surprised, “So he’s quite self-conscious.”
The person on the other side: “….”
“Alright, I understand.” Cheng Yu laughed, “Is there anything else?”
“He hasn’t gone to see Mr. Cheng again this week.”
“Oh?” Cheng Yu sat down on a chair on the balcony, “He has actually given up?”
“Yes, but he hasn’t picked up any new dramas for himself either, just a few magazine and advertising shoots.”
“Then it seems he still can’t bear to let go.”
Cheng Yu looked out the window at the night sky. An actor who didn’t take up a drama during his prime was either too tired and wanted to take a break, or had other plans.
Jiang Xu was undoubtedly the second type, except that his plan was destined to be a failure.
Cheng Yu didn’t even bother going head-to-head with him, there was no need to.
There were a lot of things that were already predetermined from the moment of birth. As long as his name was Cheng Yu, then no matter how much Jiang Xu jumped about, he wouldn’t gain anything.
But it was a pity that Jiang Xu still didn’t understand.
“He really thinks everyone will be like An An, that people would really take him seriously.”
“So childish.”
Cheng Yu sighed then stood up, getting ready to take a shower.
Lin An Lan finished his shower, laid down on the bed, picked his phone up and sent Cheng Yu a WeChat message Cheng Yu.
Lin An Lan: [What are you doing?]
He waited for a while, but Cheng Yu didn’t reply. Lin An Lan guessed that he was probably in the shower or had already gone to sleep.
Lin An Lan thought about it for a moment, then planned to wait for half an hour– if he didn’t reply after half an hour, then it meant he was asleep.
He opened the reading app on his cell phone and started reading a novel, however, he was just halfway through a chapter when he heard a knock on the door.
He could only sit up then walk to the door to open it.
Standing before him was Cheng Yu dressed appropriately, a script in his hand, smiling as he waved it at him.
Lin An Lan let him in, asking, “What scene do you want to practice?”
“The bed scene.” Cheng Yu replied.
Lin An Lan: ……
“It’s very late, so we can only discuss the bed scene.” Cheng Yu had a serious face.
Lin An Lan couldn’t help but smile, “Did I promise to practice bed scenes with you?”
Cheng Yu pretended to be shocked, “Baby, my heart hurts. Do you want to leave your husband alone during this time of our passionate love? How can a couple in love be separated from each other? We are lovers, but are separated by walls? What is stopping us from being together? And what makes us say goodbye in tears? Is it morality or warped human nature – is it love or the case of beating Mandarin ducks apart? You’re welcome to read ‘Sweetheart, love me again’ favourably.”
Lin An Lan: ……
Cheng Yu, “The main character, Xiao Cheng’s state of mind is longing, extreme longing. The farthest distance in the world is not life and death, but you standing on one side of the bed and me standing on the other side. We have the same bed, but we can’t discuss bed scenes together.”
Lin An Lan: ……
“If I remember correctly, this is my bed, isn’t it? We don’t share the same bed….. do we?”
Cheng Yu changed the poem immediately ,”When I was a child, desire was but a flimsy picture. I was outside the picture and you were inside the picture. After I grew up, I desired the broad stage. I was below the stage, but you were on top of the stage. Later on, the desire became a soft bed; I was at this end of the bed, but you were at the other end.”
Lin An Lan: ……
Lin An Lan couldn’t help but give a standing ovation. “You didn’t learn for nothing.”
“So I’m qualified to discuss bed scenes with you?”
Lin An Lan couldn’t help laughing, “I’m afraid if I don’t let you get into bed, I’ll have to fall asleep listening to modern poetry tonight.”
Cheng Yu said modestly, “That’s not necessarily true. I only remember a few modern poems.”
“Oh?” Lin An Lan was doubtful.
“But starting from today, I’ll learn a few more.”
Lin An Lan: “…. It’s not necessary.”
Cheng Yu, “It is — one has to continue learning as long as he lives.”
Alright, Lin Anlan nodded, his flower was learned!
To be honest– Lin An Lan hadn’t actually expected Cheng Yu to come sleep in the same bed with him. After all, they were all in the same hotel. One, it wasn’t necessary, two they could avoid suspicion.
It wasn’t like when they had been recording the variety show where the two of them stayed in the same room because once the cameras were turned off, no one else would know what they were doing.
But Cheng Yu was right. They were dating, moreover they were in love– it was normal for Cheng Yu to not want to sleep alone.
Lin An Lan was very rational in his heart, but he couldn’t help but turn soft with Cheng Yu standing in front of him, hence he turned a blind eye his reasoning and switched off his rational side.
Having been granted the right to discuss the bed scene, Cheng Yu walked towards the bed with his arm around him in satisfaction.
“I took a shower, but I didn’t bring my pajamas with me because it would have been too obvious, so you’ll have to give me one of yours.”
“At least you have the presence of mind to know that it would have been too obvious.” Lin An Lan smiled as he said, “I thought you didn’t have that concept.”
“Isn’t it because I’m doing it for you.” Cheng Yu sighed, “If it were up to me, I’d stand on the highest point in the city with a loud speaker and tell everyone, you’re my boyfriend, we’re a couple. “
“But you won’t allow that will you?” Cheng Yu gave Lin An Lan a sad look as he finished.
Lin An Lan: ……
What else could Lin An Lan say? He could only pat his shoulder, “I commiserate with you.”
“Ai.” Cheng Yu sighed again, “What other choice do I have, who made my wife boss?”
