imo, that kind of 'familial affection', is beyond redemption. If i happen to be on that same kind of situation, I'd pack my bags and leave that house asap.
And @hy-d-ra  thanks for the spoilers.

CHAPTER 48

The ending of this chapter... damn

BXG was sad all night and next day was still a bit embarrassed around SQS and after coming several times SQS decided to give BXG some time to adapt. Su Luo on the contrary didn't come for more than three days and Jianming explained that she decided to go on a strike with the director. As a result Sun Xuan's play who was recommended by SL was reduced by a lot and faces the danger to become a background. And also unlike SQS's agent who determined the number of plays Sun Xuan doesn't have this specification in his contract. SQS was actually glad, what goes around comes around, the one who wanted to steal the role got his play cut in the end. The irony.
Later SQS called to HC talking about things that happened, HC heard him pretty happy. But also mentioned that if BXG hasn't helped he would be in trouble. SQS at the mention of BXG told HC their dialogue how he told BXG hes not his fan and he thinks that BXG is a little sad. To which HC laughed that it wasn't a little, at night he found HC to cry together. SQS asked why cry tgether? So HC went into details how he BXG misunderstood his approach and thought he concealed his identity to get together with SQS because he was in love with him, but since SQS said that he doesn't like anyone BXG thought HC was sad, so BXG filled this romantic story in his mind. SQS asked if he cried at night to which HC of course denied and said he worked as a support. While thinking that yesterday he finally found a person who suffered from SQS scum heart and could vent and so the SQS victim alliance was created.
On the other end SQS asked if he cries one day he must show. HC asked why? But unexpectedly SQS laughed that he'd record it to leave a small memory. HC thought if SQS was a younger brother to Han Yu?!
HC said that he's done, since you want to record the video don't mind him being impolite and he started to recite SQS's yellow novel with relish and great feeling, hearing SQS's screams on the other side before SQS finally couldn't handle and hung up. But afterwards SQS sent a good night, still thinking it's always like that. Why doesn't he have same chanting skills, HC is so bad.
On the other side Sun Xuan was furious, his play was cut and all thanks to Su Luo, the agent presuaded him to go and talk to Su Luo about this, after all with BXG as protagonist this drama is bound to become popular and if his play is cut it will be dreadful. SX was really angry, after all SL has her popularity and acted willful at his expense, but he doesn't have it.
When SQS saw Su Luo at the filming site again he asked Jianming what was going on, wasn't she on strike? To which Jianming explained they were at negotiations again, but director agreed only to some things, yet won't of course allow himself to be tossed this much, part of the play will be transferred from SX and Jianming assumes it will with certainty be SQS, since BXG has his hands full and viewrs for sure won't want to see another female lead around BXG, plus it may cause problems with main female lead played by Su Luo.
SQS couldn't help himself almost laughing at the turn of events. And facts proved that Jianming was right.
When SQS sent Jianming away he bounced a bit and called HC to tell the news. He was in a happy mood saying that if HC was near he'd happily give him a ride, but HC warned that believe it or not he can go to the crew at this moment, making SQS a bit honest but not less happy.
HC was spending this evening with the trio friends WY, ZJM and YMY. Who were interested if it was SQS and why he hasn't came out to play lately. HC shared that he was actually filming. All three looked at HC stupefied before someone said that his speech that evening wasn't a joke about wanting to film, isn't HC unwilling? HC said that he is indeed, but doesn't want to crush on SQS dreams after all. WY said that if he had a sweet boyfriend like that he wouldn't allow him to enter entertainment, which is like dark waters. HC parried that that's why he doesn't have a boyfriend.
On the other hand Sun Xuan who received the notice of his play being reduced and transferred to SQS felt angry, but SL's agent retorted that if it wasn't for his action he wouldn't end up like that. And if he does anything excessibe again it will under question the future of his role. SX instead said it wasn't him the director's anger was directed at, wasn't it SL who went on a strike? He was implicated and why it is his business. SL's agent couldn't believe his ear and tols SL to look at SX who is not only ungrateful, butalso pushed the po on her head. SX defended that he just told the truth. SL shouted - Enough! - and walked away in a bad mood, she was sour that SX didn't understand her. The two quarreled and even if in several days they made up, but the barrier of previous event prevailed. At least the crew calmed down.
Two weeks later the first trailer appeared. The style was really refreshing and romantic, with most shots directed at BXG, next to SL and third with the number of shots was SQS who had a beautiful shot shown that swept the people. Both book fans and actor fans were enthusiastic, especially about SQS no one knew about. The response was really good. The only one who got less enthusiasm was Sun Xuan's character, even if SX's bought water army retorted ppl that SX is also good the rest of ppl tacitly ignored those comment and continued to discuss SQS.
SX who watched the response saw that his follower count rose by 20k which made him excited, his agent was also glad on the side-lines. SX triumphantly went to search how SQS did only to ind that SQS's followers rose by 100k already and called people blind (ahem, they're not)))) crushing his phone.
On his end SQS was relieved and Jianming was pleasantly surprised, saying that when the drama comes out things will be better and cheered for SQS.
Somewhere, where YJY was having a meal with his friends one of the girls saw a trending and clicked on it seeing the trailer and marveled at the fresh boy on the screen, girl next to her joined the discussion wondering who it was and who is SQS. YJY's ears perked up and he asked SQS? The girls looked at YJY and asked if he knew him. YJY reached out his hand to take the phone to see.


Time for the green tea art again, I suppose?)) Although with the light-hearted feeling of this novel I doubt there will be anything dramatic, plus SQS is an old bone in entertainment, not to mention that he is directly signed thanks to HC and the company won't leave him, if YJY decides to buy some splash waters (he has no proof too). After all HC negotiated that SQS is his good brother and treating SQS is the same as treating HC. But it'll be fun to watch

I am low key waiting for his realization and confession.
I also think that the brothers relationship is wholesome. not much drama, and also hoping the family dynamics on the Han family. There were no mention on mama Han and papa Han yet. And since the 'story universe' seems to be lgbt friendly, I'd hope there's no opposition on the Han family side when their relationship gets known. as it doesnt seem to be mpreg, but the novel MC is writing had an 'mpreg' on it, I wish to read fanwai on some kids too that were genetically created from both of them. 
 
  • #29
Ori Mc was even used by his family as  a step to climb "upper" class .
I really like mc instead of "reasoning"with green tea ,he will just go for some "life truth" on sqy

I don't feel like ml could be part of dog blood story , he is such a cool one

CHAPTER 33-34

Both HC and SQS visited the president of entertainment company, who is also HC's classmate. When going through contract SQS thought the contract was already pretty good and lenient, but HC wasn't satisfied and basically exploited his classmate to change the conditions to more favorable with talks of - don't you care for your brother? should you treat my brother as you treat me, who was the one who not once used to copy homework from him etc. Anyway shamelessly robbing best conditions and also asking to search for a fitting agent, after all he doesn't want to have an agent that is unscurpulous towards the artist and forces plays etc. HC's classmated couldn't handle it and changed the contract accordingly.
For such favorable contract HC fought for him SQS offered his thanks, only to get a strange look from HC with questioning if thanks should be only verbal and being shocked from four times SQS ended up lowering price down to three otherwise he thinks he'll die, which HC was satisfied with.
(Ch.33 is pretty short, it's mainly HC verbally fighting for favorable conditions, which is pretty funny, since HC is so shameless  )
While SQS waited for meeting new agent he knew he has less time for his novel so he tried to hurry it up and in his novel ML started to guess that the child look like him. HC smashed another round of rockets with a message that when ML will know it's cruciating to wait (Just before he was angry with his own hand that smashed money, but now he can't wait  )
To anyone who doesn't know SQS writes an mpreg novel that has ML and MC prototyped after him and Han Cheng, called Su Qing and Cheng Han respectively, it is a husband chasing crematorium. Anyway in the novel SQS writes Cheng Han's weapon reacted only to Su Qing, and Cheng Han who thought his problem is cured as a domineering president sent Su Qing away, but later found that his weapon wouldn't work anymore. Su Qing became pregnant, the novel has time skip of several years and Su Qing gave birth to twins, Su Ao and Su Bai. Su Qing meets Cheng Han again and they enter this weird inconsistent relationship, sometimes sleeping, sometimes fighting etc. The author actually asked readers if they should write this novel separately  So who knows what will happen when this novel will end ahaha. Back to novel.
In few days President Cen, later Brother Cen called SQS that the agent was chosen, HC tagged along to evaluate if the agent was good. They both agreed they had good impression. Though HC was still worried. It is now said that they lived together for more than half a month together. Before he was alone, but now SQS lived with him and suddenly SQS leaving he has to get used to it.
The agent called that he had a drama script for him. Agent's name is Zhou Jianming (which to me sounds like HC's friend's name, so I will simply call him either agent, or SQS's agent), he didn't hold much hope for SQS and didn't really want to play with this prince. He didn't know about SQS's origins but he knew about the backing. But if SQS is a prince type means if he's happy, everyone is happy and what if he's unhappy, would be others be miserable...
SInce he didn't hold much hope he will just do his job good, but success is not on him.
SQS who satyed at home was thinking that he might next write a campus idol drama, and even already fantasized writing, selling rights, then it being filmed and receiving awards and getting ton load of money. But he also thought that he is author of danmei, if it's found it will be his social death.
Spending half a month before filming his yellow novel entered the final stage, so he asked HC for a laptop to have at the filming set (as if he wants others to find out he writes danmei)))) So this evening HC dragged SQS to wash vegetables while he cooks and wondered why job like hsi wasn't good, he really wanted to lock the garage sometimes. SQS asked him to come visit the set when he has times, but when HC refused SQS understandingly nodded, while HC inside was surprised - why he doesn't persuade? already gave up? SO he was sour to say that old forest isn't good, now he is free. So SQS funnily promised that he will return to his old forest and promised not to have any unnecessary relationships with others. (Here is best phrase from the chapter to me, quoting)
HC: Do you still want to have relationships?! Over 8 years old, under 88 years old, you are forbidden to look at!
SQS: ...
Anyway sending SQS HC talked with SQS's agent and asked to watch after him, no visiting wine drinking and socializing, so he has no scandals with women, men and it's better to re-write scenes with kisses and sex scenes are out of question. SQS's agent could only look in a weird way at HC.

HC is so done for

CHAPTER 51

(In which YJY proves once again that he is disgusting)
BXG looked at YJY who seem to be too shocked and decided to help the difestion of such news.
BXG: So you'd better persuade Shen QingShu's younger brother, as far as their family business has something to inherit in the future, the Han family will get half of their family business to Shen QingShu. If he wants to film he can do whatever he wants, so there' nothing to worry about.
YJY still not giving up: That’s not necessarily true. Who can tell if this is not the last one? If Shen QingShu is smart, he should leave yourself a way out.
BXG: That's because you didn't see the way Han Cheng treats him *thinking how he cried with him last night* He spent so much money, dug his heart out and Shen Qingshu still dismissed him
YJY: ... Brother Xiao Bai, have you read too many novels?
BXG could only sigh seeing that the love of his friend seemed too unrealistic. It is too true love. Who can believe that second son of the richest man can humble himself? Touching.
BXG: It's okay, you can digest it, this kind of thing is really unbelievable, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it either. But it doesn't matter, this is also a good thing. After all a good friend have someone they like, wait the next time you get together again, you should call him sister-in-law.
YJY - sister-n-law?
BXG: Of course I don't need it, he wants to calls me teacher hahaha Then I'll go now.

YJY felt as if his heart was broken,no matter what both SQS and HC said he believed it was fake, but a third person tells him it's true love. Is HC really close to SQS? From highschool intentionally or not he has been sending info of HC's character and since he was HC's friend no one doubted his words. Because of this many people decided to shrink after hearing about HC's "nature". Not everyone is confident to become that special one among the other flowers, that was the reason why Han Cheng hasn't been with anyone. He arranged everything waiting to pick a fruit of his labour. If Han Yu loves him, he will be with Han Yu, if Han Yu doesn't love him, he still has Han Cheng. He always wants one from the Han family. But now he lost both. This is not fair, why is this happening? At this time he felt really lost, the day the quarrelled he still felt that they would reconcile and didn't take it to heart, but now he was truly lost.
Suddenly his mobile phone vibrated, surprisingly it was Han Cheng.
YJY: Yes.
HC: Have you gone to find Shen QingShu?
YJY, annoyed: You called me just to ask this?
HC: Otherwise? Is there anything else we can say between us.
YJY: Han Cheng! I am your friend! I have known friends for ten years!
HC didn't want to talk about bad things, but thsi instistence made him
HC: I didn't call you to tell you this. I wanted to tell you that if you have something, you can come directly to me, don't go to Shen QingShu, the matter between us has nothing to do with him. What is your ability to look for him?
YJY: You are quite protective of him. Did he come to you with a lawsuit so you rushed to me to catch the criminal?
HC was speechless, he better listen to SQS complain than him "chanting". If YJY comes to SQS several times again then he is afraid the chant will change to - Han Cheng YJY uses you as a spare tire to your brother. So heartbreaking, he lived half his life under the shadow of his brother and could not escape.
HC: He didn't come to me, don't think anyone is like you plotting behind people's back. I don't want you to find him, that ok?
YJY: Why? Afraid I will provoke him?
HC, sneered: You think too much, how can you succeed in provoking him, I'm afraid he will see you and be upset, you jump up and down like a flea who will not be upset. (not sure about this phrase, it's 3 am, don't throw bricks at me)
YJY: Han Cheng, you said that to him! How long has he known you, and how long have I known you!
HC: It shows how disgusting what you are doing now is, even your ten-year friend can’t stand it, I advise you to be a man, and not continue annoying people like this.
YJY: Don’t you think about my mood at all?
HC: Have you thought about me when you hooked up my brother and teased me? Have you considered my mood when you went to Shen QingShu behind my back? You don't think about anything, but you want me to think about your mood. Are you dreaming? Yan Jiayu, I have been very polite to you. From beginning to end, if you hadn't been in front of me and kept reminding me of what happened in the past, I had no intention of going over the old accounts with you. It's you who is rushing to find me, my brother and Shen QingShu, and then you say that I don't consider your mood. You are so funny, don't you think it is ridiculous when you say this?
YJY: That's also because I care about you! If it wasn't for liking you, how could I catch up like this?
HC: Don't talk about it all by yourself. Do you care about me? Do you also care about confessing to my brother before you return home? You just don’t want your captive fish to enter someone else’s pond. You feel that you are at a loss. You think I don’t know the little moves you made behind my back? Yes, I did not pay attention to it at first, nor did I care, but I am not stupid. After discovering your true face, I thought about it for a while and know what your purpose is. Isn’t it just you being afraid that I’m going to get better with other people? If I’m with other people, how can I be a spare tire for you?
YJY: I am not.
HC: You believe it?*laughing* Yan Jiayu, pretend less. Perhaps to you I am indeed a friend of yours, but more of a tool you use to calculate and measure value. When my brother appeared, you had a better choice, so you don’t need me, just your medium, providing opportunities for you to meet. And when you find that you can’t beat my brother at all, you need me again, because I am the one you have the who is most valuable, isn't it?
YJY: I...
HC: I don't need your explanation, let alone your sophistry. I don't care about it. What I care about is that this matter has nothing to do with Shen QingShu, it is me who will pursue him, I like him, it was not he who teased me first, so you don’t have to worry about him. As long as I like him, and if he really doesn’t like me someday and we break up but I won’t be together with you. I will only think of him and try to get back together with him. I won't even look at you at all.
YJY: What's so good about him? You haven't been so proactive with me before! I took the initiative so many times, and you didn’t respond once!
HC, coldly: That's why I don't like you. I don't like you and naturally won't respond. If you ask me now, then I must think he is good everywhere. So I am willing to take the initiative, I am willing to be nice to him, is it hard to imagine? This is love. Oh, I forgot, you have never experienced it, your true love does not love you back, so you have never experienced the sweetness of love. It's sad, but don't worry, my brother has a good impression of Shen QingShu. I will let them get along.

HC finished this warning and hung up. After all SQS was pulled into this by him and he has responsibility to protect him, after all Yan family has more money than Shen family and it is no big deal for YJY to deal with SQS, so he must protect SQS thoroughly.
BXG returned and saw SQS reading the script and took initiative to talk, SQS who was surprised for previous embarrassed BXG to come to him put the scipt and asked him to sit right away.
BXG: I have something to tell you.
SQS: What?
BXG: Does your family not support you in filming?
SQS: I don't know.
BXG: What do you mean by don't know?
(It's my assumption that the phrase SQS said meant that some people are dead, but they keep on living (like in other people's hearts), but other people are alive, but they're no different from being dead. And he said his family situation is exactly the second)
SQS: Why do you suddenly ask?
BXG: Do you know Han Cheng's friends?
SQS: I do.
BXG: Know Yan Jiayu?
SQS: Know, but the relationship is not good, why?
BXG: Because he wants you to go home to inherit the family business?
SQS: Who did you hear this from? Me, inheriting the family business? If I can inherit the family business, would I come out to film?
BXG: But Yan Jiayu said that.
SQS: He lied to you.
BXG: Lied?
SQS: Otherwise? Could it be that I lied to you?
BXG shook his head remembering the previous words of YJY
BXG: So what he said. Is it fake to let you go home and inherit the family business, is it true that he wants me to help him bully you?
SQS: He still wants you to bully me?
BXG retold him the conversation he has with YJY which made SQS laugh after listening.
SQS: You really told him that?
BXG: Otherwise? I'm such an honest person.
SQS: Then he is probably going to be very depressed. The double blow, especially your invisible blow, is the most deadly.
BXG: SO YJY really doesn't like you, why? *interrupting SQS before he spoke* I understand! It's about Han Cheng, right? He is jealous of you? Does he like Hancheng, right?
SQS: he doesn't like Han Cheng.
BXG: That is, although he regards Han Cheng as a friend, he has enjoyed a lot of benefits, so he can't accept that his friend suddenly focuses his attention and focus on the other person
SQS, nodding: You understand it well.
BXG: I've seen so many novels and TV series, and I've been familiar with these plots for a long time. I didn't expect him to be so conscientious, and even wanted to borrow a knife to kill people and let me be his knife. *despicable!*
SQS: Yes, but he must be very depressed, because you stabbed him with this knife directly backwards, hahahaha, is this the legendary self-killing behavior? Love it.

SQS thought it was really funny, but BXG didn't laugh and thought how to convey to his good brother that his friends is such a person.
He looked at SQS and tentatively asked.
BXG: You seem to know HC liked you? Do you like him?
SQS: I'm working hard on that.

BXG wanted to ask if SQS was aware of HC's identity but stopped. Returning at night he described the situation with YJY to HC and advised to stop associating. But HC answered back that the relatonship has already been broken.
BXG: YJY said that he still knows SQS's brother.
HC: Really? Things gather together to share tea.
BXG: Btw I helped to ask SQS today and he said that he tries to like you, so you have a chance, He is willing to like you. Cheer on.

HC knew this is the line they previously discussed. After all it'd be too abrupt for him to say he liked HC now, totally different from his own setting, why is it so humble, as if only he is working hard. It is so unfair.


Like honestly, YJY is such a bitch. I'm not even creating these, I practically quote the original text. But yay for HC.

CHAPTER 71-74

This will be the shortest spoiler post by far. The thing is it is basically based on dialogues and covers SQS recording the program.
HC was unable to go with SQS due to contract discussion with his dad, after all in their family HY is a bit narcissistic and HC is more sunny and can compliment his brother in parts where he lacks. Thus SQS went to record on his own. The program is a debate theme, this time program just sold the debate topics to the person whose gold master is sponsoring the program, but that person didn't appear in the first issue and SQS took this opportunity to steal the limelight. The process was swift and mainly involved the debate and public reaction, SQS arrived, did his make-up, chose his side of debate, warned his teammates that he might talk a lot in the end if it was ok with them. The topic for discussion was - My husband who is dying wants to see White Moonlight before his death, should the wife agree. SQS of course stood at the side of disagreement, surprisingly many ppl answered that yes, she should. But in the ed with SQS's brilliant logic and conviction he managed to win the public with his strong three views. It also made people like him and it sent SQS to the hot search even without any water army, purely by the power of netizens. HC who finished the business actually took part in the live broadcast and since it was on a platform he sent prizes encouraging SQS and saying that he is only his, sending the legend of domineering tyrant sister, fan circle even invited HC to their circle but when HC entered and saw ppl call him sister he said that he was actually a man. The post-broadcast live section involved SQS and his team, but SQS pushed them forward despite earning MVP of debate and said it was a team work and sister Mei, resident of the progra promised to invite them to dinner and he was hungry from all the talking, which also made ppl feel good about SQS who cared about his teammates and didn't completely block everyone. Due to popularity of SQS director of the program sent someone to make a planning for next issues that will encourage ppl with money to spend them and those who don't have to support program with views. This concluded a very productive day and a first true hot search for SQS.
But it was funny how HC sent the encouraging messages and that SQS will go home with him, because basically it's ture, yet he still ate vinegar unknowingly when girls started to want to be SQS's gf thus making him spend money to show off. Sweet detail is that SQS although chose clean image not to look as if he tried too hard, he still had platinum chain with the pendant on his neck, which HC noticed him wearing.


This was basically it, I wish this novel would be picked up, it's really funny and debates were fun too but also were sensible from SQS's point of view. I'm not putting any dialogues here, since I think they should be enjoyed in full galore and I have a splitting headache to type too much, so instead this type of summary is produced. Stay healthy
