CHAPTER 65-68
Back to Shen parents. Father Shen proposed for SQY to move out, but mother Shen tried to argue that SQY is also their son, but father Shen retorted that compared with SQY now SQS who is also HC's boyfriend is much stronger. After all they want to cross to high society. Now they decided to find a way to contact SQS first and then decide. Since SQS is with HC he must also live with HC or at least HC might know, so both parents decided that mother Shen will go to HC's company to find out about SQS. And partially couldn't hold their imagination on high-end weddings, how no one will be able to point at them etc. Mother Shen happily went to choose clothes for tomorrow.
SQY who came back had no idea that just a while ago his parents were thinking of moving him out. He still as before showed filial piety, but now father Shen with his own calculatio didn't respond to it as usual. Only mother Shen who had compassion in her heart still showed her goodwill, thinking that it'd be nice if SQS would have been sensible and both brothers could live in harmony (like honestly, lady, you're dumb). In the early morning mother Shen went to HC's company with a look of a proud hen, but was made to wait in the lounge. HC received he news from his secretary and ordered for mother Shen to wait. Secretary thought that no family is peaceful and something might have happened between SQS and his family, after all his brother was chased out and now his mother received a cold shoulder from the president.
HC contacted SQS about this matter and SQS guessed they just want to find him through HC, after all now they found out who HC is and cannot wait and grab onto the golden thigh. SQS advised HC to let mother Shen wait and not mind her, so she'll get really angry. HC received his idea and for the rest of the day didn't bother about mother Shen.
On the other hand mother Shen who have been waiting and waiting had several attempts to inquire about HC, but front desk advised her to return first and HC is busy, yet mother Shen didn't leave thinking if HC didn't want to marry SQS, she is SQS's mother after all. But HC's identity is there and she can't complain about such things. In the end she was made to wait all day, HC left work without guilt, advised his secretary not to overwork (who also thought that mother Shen who was still waiting might have done something to SQS) and the front desk girl also was leaving saying to mother Shen that she of course can stay in the empty building, but that's her thing. Mother Shen had to leave, being completely angry and humiliated and cried from such humiliation, thinking if it is his attitude she won't allow them to be together (like anyone would listen to her lol).
Hearing news from HC, SQS said to let her up the next day and say that they broke up, after all it'd be more exciting to let them know how they almost had fortune in their hands but it slipped away. HC happily complied with this script. But also reminded that HC will go home after company which made SQS wish HC a happy new year in advance. Again breaking HC's worry, who thought SQS again said such heartless things when he is worried SQS will be left alone. Although SQS thought this was right thing to do, but felt down when HC was packing things. It was the first time when HC would leave, every time, even when filming, HC would always be here at home, but now he will be left alone. He asked if HC needed help, but HC refused. He also asked when he's going to get back, but in return SQS asked for how long is the leave and he was embarrassed to ask HC to return earlier, so he told him to use his entire leave to stay at home. Which of course made HC shocked. This guy is really not in a huryy! Fortunately he is not his lover, otherwise he'll be angry every day.
SQS saw his mood and again asked if he needed help, but HC refused, he asked if he will go to take the bath? Yeah. Are you going together with me? No. SQS touched HC's shoulder again inquiring - reallt don't go together? HC refused to look and SQS held his face to slowly kiss and come closer, which surprised HC. SQS asked him softly why he was angry, HC refused that he was angry. HC had a hard refuse for bathing together and sleeping, saying that refusing isn't a sign that he is angry. But SQS said that what should he do if he wants to sleep with HC. HC bit SQS's lip saying to sleep by yourself, thinking that young master is needed at these times, like a long-term worker. But SQS hugged tighter saying that HC will leave tomorrow and they won't be together for long. SQS in the end acted coquettish making HC comply and say dissatisfied that he does this every time! But SQS pressed their foreheads and asked to come back earlier.
HC: Want me to come back soon?
SQS nodded.
HC: I thought you didn't want to.
SQS felt he understood why HC was a little angry. He felt helpless and thought HC is really cute.
SQS: I am ashamed for the New Year make you leave your parents earlier to return back. We are nto the same, me and my parents have the worst relationship, but you, your brother and parents have a good relationship, and it is rare to be reunited, so naturally you have to stay longer with them. *hugging HC tighter* Master driver, I wish everyone who treats me well will be happy, not only smooth in career, but also have a healthy friendship and complete family. You are the best person in this world for me, so I hope you and your family are well. After you get reunited with them you return back to me, I'll be here.
HC, unconsciously holding tighter: I also hope you can be happy.
SQS, smiling: I will be, how can such kind and upright person not become happy?
HC laughed and broght SQS closer for a kiss. He also thinks SQS will be happy, with his optimistic and relaxed attitutde. HC asked if he still wants to bath together, SQS agreed if HC will hold him. HC sighed in his heart, how this obviously new car is so good at hooking people.
SQS, kissing HC's face: Brother is really nice
HC: Another one
SQS: Brother is really big!
HC: !!! That's it, don't think about leaving underwater world today!
SQS: Okay~
HC: !!!
Afterwards SQS who was brought back and wrapped in the quilt looked as HC finished packing. But when HC stuffed few items and zipped the bag went to bed and asked if they should do it again, SQS did not refuse, only asked to kiss him first.
In the morning HC woke up with SQS still sweetly sleeping next to him, only in a while he reached for the drawer and put the watch on SQS's wrist while SQS was still alseep. But feeling movements SQS woke up asking if HC was going to work and said he will see him off. Thinking that after today he won't see HC for some time. It wasn't until SQS sleepily entered bathroom and wanted to wash when he noticed the watch on his hand and thought it was familiar. He looked at HC in surprise.
SQS: You wore it for me?
HC: Otherwise?
SQS: Why give me a watch?
Finally SQS remembered where he saw the watch.
SQS: Did you collude with BXG?
HC wiped his face and knocked on SQS's head saying he wasn't stupid.
SQS looked at HC's back who was leaving the bathroom and at the watch and realized that it was return gift, it was much more expensive that the one he gave, he also put it on himself in secret and was worried that he would be too lonely to stay at home. SQS suddenly felt very moved and soft-hearted. As if his heart was exposed to the sun. He didn't take this NY to heart, but HC did take his NY to heart. SQS opened the bathroom door and ran, seeing HC who was choosing ingredients in front of the fridge he jumped on his back. HC feeling the extra weight on his back held SQS's thighs so he wouldn't fall down and heard SQS's soft voice rining in his ears - Come back soon, I will wait for you at home.
HC was leaving reluctantly in the afternoon, SQS told him to go carefully and return early. Both hugged for the last time and HC went to work. At the company he arrived at 2pm as he previously aske HY for half a day. Secretary told him that mother Shen was again here. HC was surprised but asked secretary to let her up at 4pm, which surprised the secretary, but she thought that SQS might have forgiven mother Shen which made HC reluctantly accept her.
Mother Shen didn't want to come today, she was so wronged, but considering that New Year is soon she had to do it. She waited all morning only to find out that HC wasn't in the company and he will come later. Later front desk informed her that the secretary will pick her up later and HC will see her. Mother Shen again felt proud that of course HC would see her, she is SQS's mother after all. The secretary waited until 4pm before picking mother Shen. Seeing secretary being sent mother Shen felt even more proud. Waiting for secretary to leave she looked around appreciating the style of the office, but only heard HC's indifferent question why she was here for two days. Mother Shen used 'Xiao Cheng' when she spoke with HC and inquire about SQS and wanted for SQS to go home, but HC asked if they were familiar? (hinting that she spoke too familiarly). Mother Shen said that of course they are familiar, she is SQS's mother and SQS is his bf. But HC dropped a bomb on her saying that they broke up, so this has nothing to do with him. Mother Shen was shocked asking why they broke up, but HC explained that SQS didn't understand him and his love. HC gives him a house, but SQS refuses, said that HC is too prodigal, where is prodigal when he loses a house worth 100mil, was it too much to be rich.
Mother Shen's heart trembled at such numbers, why would her son refuse? So she said she will apologize for SQS and educate SQS. But HC refused, saying he is tired of troubles and the coaxing, it is better to separate now. Mother Shen tried to refuse and point that HC loved him so much, but HC refused again saying that who made SQS always save money for him while he wants to make his life better. MS said SQS did it for his own good, how could they break u, but HC was unsatisfied asking her if she was teaching him right now? Who she was to do so? MS wanted to say it was for the two of them, but HC disagreed and waved her away saying that he and SQS are now separated and that's the end of it. MS lamented SQS for falling in love with such a flimsy person. And went away with her head down, humilated again after being chased out. Seeing her out HC happily called SQS and told him about what happened and SQS was very satisfied and said that now mother Shen will definitely have a bad year. HC hung up, now not owrrying about SQS's problems anymore.
But on the other hand mother Shen was angry and wronged saying that HC and SQS broke up. Both divided because HC bought him a house but SQS refused and they quarreled. Father Shen felt his heart hurt, he just missed a 100mil mansion. But mother Shen warned him that they now have nothing to do with Han family, if they go make trouble he will swallow their family. Anyway two parents lamented the dark hearts of rich families, that SQS fell inlove with such person, that he should have received a break-up fee etc. saying that SQS is stupid, not like the two of them, father Shen lamented that he won't see wedding of the century and now it was all gone. When father Shen had no idea that HC and SQS were together he wouldn't care, but now he knew that they were together for some time, but they missed the opportunity, he felt bad. Where can he find such son-in-law and wealth again.
SQY who got back and brought ginseng had no idea what was happening, but asking what was wrong father Shen who was in a bad mood told him that his brother was away from home on NY and hasn't been found and brought back yet. Mother Shen tried to protect, but father Shen retorted that if it wasn't for SQY then SQS wouldn't leave. After all if SQS was at home he'd knew about HC earlier. So he promised SQY not to expect good year if SQS doesn't return. SQY said he had no idea where SQS was. But father Shen told him what was the point of staying at home, he should have searched for his brother. SQY felt that even if they don't know about HC they still treat him like that, he also asked mother Shen if he was bad, but mother Shen calmed him down thinking it wasn't you who is bad, it's just SQS's boyfriend who is strong.
SQS had no idea about troubles of the Shen house he purposefully stirred, he stayed at home happily writing his novel, there were two days before NY. Since HC was probably worried he left a lot fo food that could be made easily at home. And if SQS wants anything he can order at noted places under HC's name. SQS thought he deserved the best driver award.
On the last night before NY he decided to give himself a break and relax, picking up phone he saw BXG being angry in Moments and wrote him a message. BXG was angry because father who promised to spend NY with him had something at the last moment. SQS said he also was spending NY alone, which made BXG a bit better, but SQS also offered to spend together, BXG thought HC would refuse and SQS for this decided to ask HC first. But surprisingly HC did indeed refuse, he thought that after SQS didn't want to go to Han house for NY, but was ok to g to others he didn't want to and refused. SQS who didn't want to make him angry, after all HC accomodated him a lot, actually wanted to accomodate him and agreed not to go anywhere and stay at home. HC wanted to rush home, wanted to pinch SQS's face. He obviously wanted to go, judging by his tone, but now refused just because HC is unwilling. SQS said he will explain to BXG the situation. BXG wasn't against it, he also would spend NY with his agent, who offered to spend NY together, so he was fine with refusal, he knew HC would not agree from the very beginning.
On the day of NY HC was woken up by his parents to meet the NY in a lively way.
SQS on his side watched the excitement of people exchanging on the Internet and still felt a bit sad. He missed home and his family and brother. Wondering is he really dead on that side? He just wished if it was true then his family would be able to overcome him leaving so soon, it is best for them to see a dream where he lives happily on this side, so they can rest assured ( ;_; )
He could only wish for his family would stay happy and healthy and not be sad at his departure. Same for his friends and fans, just remember that once he was there.
SQS was silent for a long time before he regained his spirit.
But thinking of home it made him remember his current "home". He called mother Shen. Mother Shen was putting jewellery when she received a call from SQS. She asked if he is coming back, but he refused with 'of course not', he just remembered that today is NY, so he should wish for NY. Mother Shen asked if he wasn't worried about his mother not comig home, but made SQS aks in return if she was really worried, he feels fine alone. She also inquired about him and HC but SQS stopped it explaining that they parted, he gave all the gifts back. SQS again played the small theater saying that HC is too materialistic, all the gifts and houses, he didn't want it. No love is forever. Mother Shen asked if he was too sad because of LH and doesn't believe in love? But SQS asked if SQY didn't tell them that he never loved LH. But MS wondered what it had to do with SQY? So SQS explained it was at that time SQY brought LH to make him and HC break up. He thought both parents knew about it. MS couldn't believe asking if SQY knew they were with HC? Of course he knew, don't these two parents know about it? MS thought that if she knew she'd go to HC earlier, but now. She asked if SQY really wanted to break SQS and HC to which SQS agreed that yes, it was indeed like that he brought LH to him thinking he loved him thinking it was for his own good. MS realized that how can you say that SQY was not jealous, for what reason he brought LH back while he claimed LH is a trash and rubbish person. How could SQY be like that?
So SQS broke up with HC because HC would always gift him, but he wanted love, he didn't fall in love with a human ATM, so he returned all things back. MS was surprised why he never discussed it with his parents, but SQS said he was with HC and never discussed such things with parents too. MS was aggrieved almost crying, which made SQS happier. She told him he deliberately pissed her off to which SQS said aggrieved that he called to wish a happy NY, but she said he was pissing her off, this is how you miss me and want me to go home, he knew she was lying to him, you can celebrate NY with the family of three, he will celebrate alone. And he hung up.
SQS was sad he won't be able to see the show that will happen after this phone call.
Father Shen came up saying he was waiting for so long for her, but MS explained what was said on the phone right now. FS wanted to peel SQY's skin but was stopped by MS, after all they had so many relatives now and couldn't act rashly. But FS was still angry thinking that SQY knew all along where SQS was, but never told them. Both agreed it wasn't time to fight or seek explanation, but MS was asking herself, they definitely sent SQY to university and such, so how could SQY become like this? Lying, full of vanity, trying to ruin brother's marriage.
On his side SQS got the delivery, which was a festive dinner. He reported to HC that dishes arrived and he ordered too much. But HC told him it is NY and it is supposed to be like that, he should eat whatever he wanted. HC felt a bit bad hearing SQS will eat and watch Spring Fest Gala, if it wasn't for him SQS would spend time with BXG instead of being alone.
When father Han wanted to pour drinks HC refused saying he'll go out in a while and he wanted to meet friends. Father Han was once young too, so he undertood the vigour and didn't refuse. But suddenly the topic changed to marriage and father Han asked when will they get married, mother Han who heard it also said that at their age both she and father Han were already married. Han Yu wriggled his way out that he didn't meet a right person and put out some high requirements, since he himself is such a high profile person. But acted as ok person who thought these were basic requirements that could be fullfilled. HC on his side said the person he is looking for must be intmate and like himself a lot. Mother Han said that they were waiting for HC because they had little hope for HY in this aspect. This was the only thing father Han could use to poke at HY who showed his excellence in everthing, that's what HC thought. But HC didn't laugh with them, since HY had such a handle, if they saw it, they'd laugh even more.
HC accompanied both parents before leaving, promising to be back in the morning. HY who saw his brother going asked if he needed HY to give him a lift, but HC refused, HC knew he was deliberate but HY asked who made HC lie to himself. HC admitted he wrecked SQS's NY ad wanted to compensate, but it was not enough for Hy and he asked why he wrecked it, was jealous? HC explained that he was selfish. It was first for HY to see someone being selfish out of jealousy, his brother is indeed pure. HY took out a red envelope and asked to give to SQS to compensate. HC asked to give him a red enelope too, so he can prepare a red envelope for SQS. HY teased that HC never gave his friend YMY a red envelope. And btw asked to return in the morning, HC agreed, so HY asked so he won't e back tonight? HY looked at his cute brother who was teased to anger.
The streets were empty, and he rushed all the way without obstacles.
SQS was sitting and tasting the dessert, skits on TV were not funny when he heard the door bell ringing. He wondered who it was so late, the person behind said it was express delivery with Mr Han as a sender, SQS opened the door only to see HC behind. HC teasingly asked if he would sign for the delivery, SQS who finally recovered asked how he should sign for it? HC asked shouldn't it be a hug? Which made SQS remember that he told this to HC that he will wait for him and when HC comes back he will give him a hug. He agreed and hugged HC tighter. He couldn't help laughing, the more he smiled, the happier he was. He was a little wronged, but he couldn't restrain his joy. he was happy, but wanted to complain a little. At this moment Shen Qing finally had a real sense of intimacy with this world. He rationally accepted that he was dead, and he was lucky to wear the book again, also calmly accepting the original parents and ex-boyfriends, who are not good people. He became an actor just like in his previous life, and continued to film and venture into the entertainment industry. But also did things he didn't do in his previous life - registered as author and wrote a novel. From the moment he walked through and opened his eyes, he knew that his life this time was for nothing. So he appreciated the world with a relaxed mind, doing things he wants to do that he has never done before, and does not plan what his future will be like or who he will meet. He has no sense of closeness to this world, only Han Cheng. Now, holding Han Cheng in his arms, for the first time, he felt close to the world. He is still a living person. Even if his family is gone, he hopes someone can accompany him to celebrate the New Year. I hope that person is the one I want. I hope that the other person will suddenly appear and hug him as he said. He held Han Cheng, his heart was tender and sour, joyful and wronged, it was a rare surprise, but he only wanted the other party to coax him.
SQS: How to sign? Stamp? Then you coax me first, okay? You kiss me first and I will kiss you next.
HC felt emotional complexity in those words, did not say much, only lowered his haead to kiss. SQS gladly responded, but still bit HC's lips and later licked as if soothing. HC felt the other person grievances thinking wasn't he happy to see him. Thinking that he should be, he asked SQS to stay home alone. He could only respond gently. He apologized for not letting him go to BXG, but SQS said he didn't blame him for that. he really didn't, he didn't want to spend NY with BXG, especially that now HC is here. He was just a little homesick and uncomfortable.
SQS didn't have any hardships growing up, his parents loved him, his older brother was tolerant, the only thing was his untimely death. Therefore he was still a bit childish, he hoped people who care about him will coax him. He has a strong side, so when he is alone he can fight with all negative emotions, but when he is next to HC who came back on such a special day he still felt the girevances in his heart were poked. SQS felt that he was a bit hypocritical wanting to be coaxed the more HC treated him, but he couldn't help it. He nestled in HC's embrace. HC didn't believe he was okay when he said he was okay. He ouched SQS's hair distressedly and picked him up and walked into the house. SQS managed to close the door in time before being brought to the sofa where he again nestled in HC's embrace. HC laughed thinking SQS was exceptionally clingy today. So both sat on the sofa contendedly hugging each other. Kissing from time to time and HC saying how can Qingqing be so cute, so well-behaved today. HC promised there will be no second time, but SQS explained that he didn't blame HC, he just could fully explain the situation so he simply said that it was a surge of emotions, getting so excited by his sudden appearance. HC accepted such an explanation.
Both shared a sweet time sitting and hugging. Sahring a kiss filled with taste of the dessert when SQS said that the food and desserts HC ordered are really delicious and he should taste one himself while he took the bite. Which made SQS hide into his embrace even tighter.
When it was almost midnight the host on TV started to count, SQS counted in his heart when he heard HC kiss his face wishing him a happy new year, SQS wished him a happy new year in return.
This year he has no family or friends, only Han Cheng beside him. He was lucky to meet Han Cheng.
SQS softly repeated wishing for a happy new year.
HC was the light that guided him into this world, full of brilliance and hope, slowly integrating into this world.
HC raised his hand blocking SQS eyes and gave him red envelopes. One from him as pocket money which made SQS amused, since he was not a kid, but second was from Han Yu, which made SQS embarrassed. But HC assured him that HY won't lack the money so he shouldn't care too much. And HC added that right now when it's midnight and red envelopes were given, it was time to go to bed, to which SQS readily agreed, saying he can stay up all night. HC looked at him in surprise saying he said it deliberately. SQS agreed and said he will toss with him tonight, okay? adding softly 'Brother' (Gege). HC asked him not to cry, but SQS answered that he cries only in his arms, which made HC surprised where he learnt all this!
When it was over SQS smiled knowing that HC was really reluctant to toss all night, which only made him hug tighter and act like a baby. He asked to wake him up when HC will leave, since he wants to send him off. But HC said that with how tightly SQS hugs him it is hard to leave unnoticed. SQS asked when HC is going back, but teased him that wasn't SQS the one who let him spend entire vacation at his parents, which made SQS angrily pinch him. HC promised to return as soon as possible, teasing that after all the baby is at home alone.
Back to Shen parents. Father Shen proposed for SQY to move out, but mother Shen tried to argue that SQY is also their son, but father Shen retorted that compared with SQY now SQS who is also HC's boyfriend is much stronger. After all they want to cross to high society. Now they decided to find a way to contact SQS first and then decide. Since SQS is with HC he must also live with HC or at least HC might know, so both parents decided that mother Shen will go to HC's company to find out about SQS. And partially couldn't hold their imagination on high-end weddings, how no one will be able to point at them etc. Mother Shen happily went to choose clothes for tomorrow.
SQY who came back had no idea that just a while ago his parents were thinking of moving him out. He still as before showed filial piety, but now father Shen with his own calculatio didn't respond to it as usual. Only mother Shen who had compassion in her heart still showed her goodwill, thinking that it'd be nice if SQS would have been sensible and both brothers could live in harmony (like honestly, lady, you're dumb). In the early morning mother Shen went to HC's company with a look of a proud hen, but was made to wait in the lounge. HC received he news from his secretary and ordered for mother Shen to wait. Secretary thought that no family is peaceful and something might have happened between SQS and his family, after all his brother was chased out and now his mother received a cold shoulder from the president.
HC contacted SQS about this matter and SQS guessed they just want to find him through HC, after all now they found out who HC is and cannot wait and grab onto the golden thigh. SQS advised HC to let mother Shen wait and not mind her, so she'll get really angry. HC received his idea and for the rest of the day didn't bother about mother Shen.
On the other hand mother Shen who have been waiting and waiting had several attempts to inquire about HC, but front desk advised her to return first and HC is busy, yet mother Shen didn't leave thinking if HC didn't want to marry SQS, she is SQS's mother after all. But HC's identity is there and she can't complain about such things. In the end she was made to wait all day, HC left work without guilt, advised his secretary not to overwork (who also thought that mother Shen who was still waiting might have done something to SQS) and the front desk girl also was leaving saying to mother Shen that she of course can stay in the empty building, but that's her thing. Mother Shen had to leave, being completely angry and humiliated and cried from such humiliation, thinking if it is his attitude she won't allow them to be together (like anyone would listen to her lol).
Hearing news from HC, SQS said to let her up the next day and say that they broke up, after all it'd be more exciting to let them know how they almost had fortune in their hands but it slipped away. HC happily complied with this script. But also reminded that HC will go home after company which made SQS wish HC a happy new year in advance. Again breaking HC's worry, who thought SQS again said such heartless things when he is worried SQS will be left alone. Although SQS thought this was right thing to do, but felt down when HC was packing things. It was the first time when HC would leave, every time, even when filming, HC would always be here at home, but now he will be left alone. He asked if HC needed help, but HC refused. He also asked when he's going to get back, but in return SQS asked for how long is the leave and he was embarrassed to ask HC to return earlier, so he told him to use his entire leave to stay at home. Which of course made HC shocked. This guy is really not in a huryy! Fortunately he is not his lover, otherwise he'll be angry every day.
SQS saw his mood and again asked if he needed help, but HC refused, he asked if he will go to take the bath? Yeah. Are you going together with me? No. SQS touched HC's shoulder again inquiring - reallt don't go together? HC refused to look and SQS held his face to slowly kiss and come closer, which surprised HC. SQS asked him softly why he was angry, HC refused that he was angry. HC had a hard refuse for bathing together and sleeping, saying that refusing isn't a sign that he is angry. But SQS said that what should he do if he wants to sleep with HC. HC bit SQS's lip saying to sleep by yourself, thinking that young master is needed at these times, like a long-term worker. But SQS hugged tighter saying that HC will leave tomorrow and they won't be together for long. SQS in the end acted coquettish making HC comply and say dissatisfied that he does this every time! But SQS pressed their foreheads and asked to come back earlier.
HC: Want me to come back soon?
SQS nodded.
HC: I thought you didn't want to.
SQS felt he understood why HC was a little angry. He felt helpless and thought HC is really cute.
SQS: I am ashamed for the New Year make you leave your parents earlier to return back. We are nto the same, me and my parents have the worst relationship, but you, your brother and parents have a good relationship, and it is rare to be reunited, so naturally you have to stay longer with them. *hugging HC tighter* Master driver, I wish everyone who treats me well will be happy, not only smooth in career, but also have a healthy friendship and complete family. You are the best person in this world for me, so I hope you and your family are well. After you get reunited with them you return back to me, I'll be here.
HC, unconsciously holding tighter: I also hope you can be happy.
SQS, smiling: I will be, how can such kind and upright person not become happy?
HC laughed and broght SQS closer for a kiss. He also thinks SQS will be happy, with his optimistic and relaxed attitutde. HC asked if he still wants to bath together, SQS agreed if HC will hold him. HC sighed in his heart, how this obviously new car is so good at hooking people.
SQS, kissing HC's face: Brother is really nice
HC: Another one
SQS: Brother is really big!
HC: !!! That's it, don't think about leaving underwater world today!
SQS: Okay~
HC: !!!
Afterwards SQS who was brought back and wrapped in the quilt looked as HC finished packing. But when HC stuffed few items and zipped the bag went to bed and asked if they should do it again, SQS did not refuse, only asked to kiss him first.
In the morning HC woke up with SQS still sweetly sleeping next to him, only in a while he reached for the drawer and put the watch on SQS's wrist while SQS was still alseep. But feeling movements SQS woke up asking if HC was going to work and said he will see him off. Thinking that after today he won't see HC for some time. It wasn't until SQS sleepily entered bathroom and wanted to wash when he noticed the watch on his hand and thought it was familiar. He looked at HC in surprise.
SQS: You wore it for me?
HC: Otherwise?
SQS: Why give me a watch?
Finally SQS remembered where he saw the watch.
SQS: Did you collude with BXG?
HC wiped his face and knocked on SQS's head saying he wasn't stupid.
SQS looked at HC's back who was leaving the bathroom and at the watch and realized that it was return gift, it was much more expensive that the one he gave, he also put it on himself in secret and was worried that he would be too lonely to stay at home. SQS suddenly felt very moved and soft-hearted. As if his heart was exposed to the sun. He didn't take this NY to heart, but HC did take his NY to heart. SQS opened the bathroom door and ran, seeing HC who was choosing ingredients in front of the fridge he jumped on his back. HC feeling the extra weight on his back held SQS's thighs so he wouldn't fall down and heard SQS's soft voice rining in his ears - Come back soon, I will wait for you at home.
HC was leaving reluctantly in the afternoon, SQS told him to go carefully and return early. Both hugged for the last time and HC went to work. At the company he arrived at 2pm as he previously aske HY for half a day. Secretary told him that mother Shen was again here. HC was surprised but asked secretary to let her up at 4pm, which surprised the secretary, but she thought that SQS might have forgiven mother Shen which made HC reluctantly accept her.
Mother Shen didn't want to come today, she was so wronged, but considering that New Year is soon she had to do it. She waited all morning only to find out that HC wasn't in the company and he will come later. Later front desk informed her that the secretary will pick her up later and HC will see her. Mother Shen again felt proud that of course HC would see her, she is SQS's mother after all. The secretary waited until 4pm before picking mother Shen. Seeing secretary being sent mother Shen felt even more proud. Waiting for secretary to leave she looked around appreciating the style of the office, but only heard HC's indifferent question why she was here for two days. Mother Shen used 'Xiao Cheng' when she spoke with HC and inquire about SQS and wanted for SQS to go home, but HC asked if they were familiar? (hinting that she spoke too familiarly). Mother Shen said that of course they are familiar, she is SQS's mother and SQS is his bf. But HC dropped a bomb on her saying that they broke up, so this has nothing to do with him. Mother Shen was shocked asking why they broke up, but HC explained that SQS didn't understand him and his love. HC gives him a house, but SQS refuses, said that HC is too prodigal, where is prodigal when he loses a house worth 100mil, was it too much to be rich.
Mother Shen's heart trembled at such numbers, why would her son refuse? So she said she will apologize for SQS and educate SQS. But HC refused, saying he is tired of troubles and the coaxing, it is better to separate now. Mother Shen tried to refuse and point that HC loved him so much, but HC refused again saying that who made SQS always save money for him while he wants to make his life better. MS said SQS did it for his own good, how could they break u, but HC was unsatisfied asking her if she was teaching him right now? Who she was to do so? MS wanted to say it was for the two of them, but HC disagreed and waved her away saying that he and SQS are now separated and that's the end of it. MS lamented SQS for falling in love with such a flimsy person. And went away with her head down, humilated again after being chased out. Seeing her out HC happily called SQS and told him about what happened and SQS was very satisfied and said that now mother Shen will definitely have a bad year. HC hung up, now not owrrying about SQS's problems anymore.
But on the other hand mother Shen was angry and wronged saying that HC and SQS broke up. Both divided because HC bought him a house but SQS refused and they quarreled. Father Shen felt his heart hurt, he just missed a 100mil mansion. But mother Shen warned him that they now have nothing to do with Han family, if they go make trouble he will swallow their family. Anyway two parents lamented the dark hearts of rich families, that SQS fell inlove with such person, that he should have received a break-up fee etc. saying that SQS is stupid, not like the two of them, father Shen lamented that he won't see wedding of the century and now it was all gone. When father Shen had no idea that HC and SQS were together he wouldn't care, but now he knew that they were together for some time, but they missed the opportunity, he felt bad. Where can he find such son-in-law and wealth again.
SQY who got back and brought ginseng had no idea what was happening, but asking what was wrong father Shen who was in a bad mood told him that his brother was away from home on NY and hasn't been found and brought back yet. Mother Shen tried to protect, but father Shen retorted that if it wasn't for SQY then SQS wouldn't leave. After all if SQS was at home he'd knew about HC earlier. So he promised SQY not to expect good year if SQS doesn't return. SQY said he had no idea where SQS was. But father Shen told him what was the point of staying at home, he should have searched for his brother. SQY felt that even if they don't know about HC they still treat him like that, he also asked mother Shen if he was bad, but mother Shen calmed him down thinking it wasn't you who is bad, it's just SQS's boyfriend who is strong.
SQS had no idea about troubles of the Shen house he purposefully stirred, he stayed at home happily writing his novel, there were two days before NY. Since HC was probably worried he left a lot fo food that could be made easily at home. And if SQS wants anything he can order at noted places under HC's name. SQS thought he deserved the best driver award.
On the last night before NY he decided to give himself a break and relax, picking up phone he saw BXG being angry in Moments and wrote him a message. BXG was angry because father who promised to spend NY with him had something at the last moment. SQS said he also was spending NY alone, which made BXG a bit better, but SQS also offered to spend together, BXG thought HC would refuse and SQS for this decided to ask HC first. But surprisingly HC did indeed refuse, he thought that after SQS didn't want to go to Han house for NY, but was ok to g to others he didn't want to and refused. SQS who didn't want to make him angry, after all HC accomodated him a lot, actually wanted to accomodate him and agreed not to go anywhere and stay at home. HC wanted to rush home, wanted to pinch SQS's face. He obviously wanted to go, judging by his tone, but now refused just because HC is unwilling. SQS said he will explain to BXG the situation. BXG wasn't against it, he also would spend NY with his agent, who offered to spend NY together, so he was fine with refusal, he knew HC would not agree from the very beginning.
On the day of NY HC was woken up by his parents to meet the NY in a lively way.
SQS on his side watched the excitement of people exchanging on the Internet and still felt a bit sad. He missed home and his family and brother. Wondering is he really dead on that side? He just wished if it was true then his family would be able to overcome him leaving so soon, it is best for them to see a dream where he lives happily on this side, so they can rest assured ( ;_; )
He could only wish for his family would stay happy and healthy and not be sad at his departure. Same for his friends and fans, just remember that once he was there.
SQS was silent for a long time before he regained his spirit.
But thinking of home it made him remember his current "home". He called mother Shen. Mother Shen was putting jewellery when she received a call from SQS. She asked if he is coming back, but he refused with 'of course not', he just remembered that today is NY, so he should wish for NY. Mother Shen asked if he wasn't worried about his mother not comig home, but made SQS aks in return if she was really worried, he feels fine alone. She also inquired about him and HC but SQS stopped it explaining that they parted, he gave all the gifts back. SQS again played the small theater saying that HC is too materialistic, all the gifts and houses, he didn't want it. No love is forever. Mother Shen asked if he was too sad because of LH and doesn't believe in love? But SQS asked if SQY didn't tell them that he never loved LH. But MS wondered what it had to do with SQY? So SQS explained it was at that time SQY brought LH to make him and HC break up. He thought both parents knew about it. MS couldn't believe asking if SQY knew they were with HC? Of course he knew, don't these two parents know about it? MS thought that if she knew she'd go to HC earlier, but now. She asked if SQY really wanted to break SQS and HC to which SQS agreed that yes, it was indeed like that he brought LH to him thinking he loved him thinking it was for his own good. MS realized that how can you say that SQY was not jealous, for what reason he brought LH back while he claimed LH is a trash and rubbish person. How could SQY be like that?
So SQS broke up with HC because HC would always gift him, but he wanted love, he didn't fall in love with a human ATM, so he returned all things back. MS was surprised why he never discussed it with his parents, but SQS said he was with HC and never discussed such things with parents too. MS was aggrieved almost crying, which made SQS happier. She told him he deliberately pissed her off to which SQS said aggrieved that he called to wish a happy NY, but she said he was pissing her off, this is how you miss me and want me to go home, he knew she was lying to him, you can celebrate NY with the family of three, he will celebrate alone. And he hung up.
SQS was sad he won't be able to see the show that will happen after this phone call.
Father Shen came up saying he was waiting for so long for her, but MS explained what was said on the phone right now. FS wanted to peel SQY's skin but was stopped by MS, after all they had so many relatives now and couldn't act rashly. But FS was still angry thinking that SQY knew all along where SQS was, but never told them. Both agreed it wasn't time to fight or seek explanation, but MS was asking herself, they definitely sent SQY to university and such, so how could SQY become like this? Lying, full of vanity, trying to ruin brother's marriage.
On his side SQS got the delivery, which was a festive dinner. He reported to HC that dishes arrived and he ordered too much. But HC told him it is NY and it is supposed to be like that, he should eat whatever he wanted. HC felt a bit bad hearing SQS will eat and watch Spring Fest Gala, if it wasn't for him SQS would spend time with BXG instead of being alone.
When father Han wanted to pour drinks HC refused saying he'll go out in a while and he wanted to meet friends. Father Han was once young too, so he undertood the vigour and didn't refuse. But suddenly the topic changed to marriage and father Han asked when will they get married, mother Han who heard it also said that at their age both she and father Han were already married. Han Yu wriggled his way out that he didn't meet a right person and put out some high requirements, since he himself is such a high profile person. But acted as ok person who thought these were basic requirements that could be fullfilled. HC on his side said the person he is looking for must be intmate and like himself a lot. Mother Han said that they were waiting for HC because they had little hope for HY in this aspect. This was the only thing father Han could use to poke at HY who showed his excellence in everthing, that's what HC thought. But HC didn't laugh with them, since HY had such a handle, if they saw it, they'd laugh even more.
HC accompanied both parents before leaving, promising to be back in the morning. HY who saw his brother going asked if he needed HY to give him a lift, but HC refused, HC knew he was deliberate but HY asked who made HC lie to himself. HC admitted he wrecked SQS's NY ad wanted to compensate, but it was not enough for Hy and he asked why he wrecked it, was jealous? HC explained that he was selfish. It was first for HY to see someone being selfish out of jealousy, his brother is indeed pure. HY took out a red envelope and asked to give to SQS to compensate. HC asked to give him a red enelope too, so he can prepare a red envelope for SQS. HY teased that HC never gave his friend YMY a red envelope. And btw asked to return in the morning, HC agreed, so HY asked so he won't e back tonight? HY looked at his cute brother who was teased to anger.
The streets were empty, and he rushed all the way without obstacles.
SQS was sitting and tasting the dessert, skits on TV were not funny when he heard the door bell ringing. He wondered who it was so late, the person behind said it was express delivery with Mr Han as a sender, SQS opened the door only to see HC behind. HC teasingly asked if he would sign for the delivery, SQS who finally recovered asked how he should sign for it? HC asked shouldn't it be a hug? Which made SQS remember that he told this to HC that he will wait for him and when HC comes back he will give him a hug. He agreed and hugged HC tighter. He couldn't help laughing, the more he smiled, the happier he was. He was a little wronged, but he couldn't restrain his joy. he was happy, but wanted to complain a little. At this moment Shen Qing finally had a real sense of intimacy with this world. He rationally accepted that he was dead, and he was lucky to wear the book again, also calmly accepting the original parents and ex-boyfriends, who are not good people. He became an actor just like in his previous life, and continued to film and venture into the entertainment industry. But also did things he didn't do in his previous life - registered as author and wrote a novel. From the moment he walked through and opened his eyes, he knew that his life this time was for nothing. So he appreciated the world with a relaxed mind, doing things he wants to do that he has never done before, and does not plan what his future will be like or who he will meet. He has no sense of closeness to this world, only Han Cheng. Now, holding Han Cheng in his arms, for the first time, he felt close to the world. He is still a living person. Even if his family is gone, he hopes someone can accompany him to celebrate the New Year. I hope that person is the one I want. I hope that the other person will suddenly appear and hug him as he said. He held Han Cheng, his heart was tender and sour, joyful and wronged, it was a rare surprise, but he only wanted the other party to coax him.
SQS: How to sign? Stamp? Then you coax me first, okay? You kiss me first and I will kiss you next.
HC felt emotional complexity in those words, did not say much, only lowered his haead to kiss. SQS gladly responded, but still bit HC's lips and later licked as if soothing. HC felt the other person grievances thinking wasn't he happy to see him. Thinking that he should be, he asked SQS to stay home alone. He could only respond gently. He apologized for not letting him go to BXG, but SQS said he didn't blame him for that. he really didn't, he didn't want to spend NY with BXG, especially that now HC is here. He was just a little homesick and uncomfortable.
SQS didn't have any hardships growing up, his parents loved him, his older brother was tolerant, the only thing was his untimely death. Therefore he was still a bit childish, he hoped people who care about him will coax him. He has a strong side, so when he is alone he can fight with all negative emotions, but when he is next to HC who came back on such a special day he still felt the girevances in his heart were poked. SQS felt that he was a bit hypocritical wanting to be coaxed the more HC treated him, but he couldn't help it. He nestled in HC's embrace. HC didn't believe he was okay when he said he was okay. He ouched SQS's hair distressedly and picked him up and walked into the house. SQS managed to close the door in time before being brought to the sofa where he again nestled in HC's embrace. HC laughed thinking SQS was exceptionally clingy today. So both sat on the sofa contendedly hugging each other. Kissing from time to time and HC saying how can Qingqing be so cute, so well-behaved today. HC promised there will be no second time, but SQS explained that he didn't blame HC, he just could fully explain the situation so he simply said that it was a surge of emotions, getting so excited by his sudden appearance. HC accepted such an explanation.
Both shared a sweet time sitting and hugging. Sahring a kiss filled with taste of the dessert when SQS said that the food and desserts HC ordered are really delicious and he should taste one himself while he took the bite. Which made SQS hide into his embrace even tighter.
When it was almost midnight the host on TV started to count, SQS counted in his heart when he heard HC kiss his face wishing him a happy new year, SQS wished him a happy new year in return.
This year he has no family or friends, only Han Cheng beside him. He was lucky to meet Han Cheng.
SQS softly repeated wishing for a happy new year.
HC was the light that guided him into this world, full of brilliance and hope, slowly integrating into this world.
HC raised his hand blocking SQS eyes and gave him red envelopes. One from him as pocket money which made SQS amused, since he was not a kid, but second was from Han Yu, which made SQS embarrassed. But HC assured him that HY won't lack the money so he shouldn't care too much. And HC added that right now when it's midnight and red envelopes were given, it was time to go to bed, to which SQS readily agreed, saying he can stay up all night. HC looked at him in surprise saying he said it deliberately. SQS agreed and said he will toss with him tonight, okay? adding softly 'Brother' (Gege). HC asked him not to cry, but SQS answered that he cries only in his arms, which made HC surprised where he learnt all this!
When it was over SQS smiled knowing that HC was really reluctant to toss all night, which only made him hug tighter and act like a baby. He asked to wake him up when HC will leave, since he wants to send him off. But HC said that with how tightly SQS hugs him it is hard to leave unnoticed. SQS asked when HC is going back, but teased him that wasn't SQS the one who let him spend entire vacation at his parents, which made SQS angrily pinch him. HC promised to return as soon as possible, teasing that after all the baby is at home alone.

CHAPTER 63-64
After finishing speaking Han Yu took SQS along and went away, leaving YJY behind.
SQS apologized for abrupt acting, since he had no time to explain the situation with YJY he thanked HY for cooperation and explained that he doesn't like either HY or HC. Which surprised HY, but he wondered why he pissed off YJY in case they're just friends with HC? SQS explained that it was solely because what YJY did was too disgusting to him, additionally after so many years YJY doesnt feel that he did anything wrong, so SQS wanted him to feel the same he did to others. HY said that SQS cared about HC. To which SQS agreed for the reason that HC treats SQS really well and he helped to deal with mother Shen, so he pays back with interest. HY looked at SQS wondering, from the look HC likes SQS, but it seems to be one-sided. It made him wonder what really is going on between the two. Are they still in the period of ambiguity and haven't talked it out? If so, it'd explain HC's wish to hide their relationship with SQS.
Back at the box HC asked why they came back together. He was about to answer to HY's excuse that after talking to the manager he also went to the bathroom, but his phone rang and it was YJY. HC hung up directly. SQS inquired if it was YJY? And said that he can answer him this time, because he and HY played a little heater for YJY right now. HC thought for SQS it's a light comedy, sure thing for YJY it's more like a horror movies. HC looked at HY who confirmed.
HC: You two? And still a love comedy? *looking at SQS* What did you do?
SQS: What can I do? Of course piss him off and let out some steam for you.
HC: Really?
SQS: Otherwise? I'm so obedient.
HC - you're not as obedient as you show!
HC: Explain.
Inquiring why did you suddenly added male number two into the play, why never greeted him before doing those things? And it's a perverted HY to begin with, what role does he get? Cage sender? He looked at SQS thinking that this disturbance of the script looks too familiar, they hooked up the same way. This scumbag!
SQS leaned closer to say all the things that happened into HC's ear. HC looked at him as if he was insane.
HC: Are you crazy?
HC - What productive dreams, both brothers fell in love with him! And even the older one broke the sackles of morality and abandoned his brother to fall in love. He silently looked at HY as if asking if he was crazy too. HC suddenly felt sad, why he missed such a scene without even knowing about it. He should have seen how crazy his brother is, then also record it and leave it as a handle. The more HC thinks about it the more he hates it.
HC: Is the bathroom monitored?
HY: How is that possible?
Ah he was so angry, why haven't they called him secretly for acting?
HC: Why didn't you notify me of such a big event in advance?
SQS: The incident happened suddenly, but you see, he called you just now, so the latter part is your play.
HC - Can this be the same? One is a two-man show while other is just a one-man show. It should have been better if he caught these two in the toilet and later two ppl would kneel before him and SQS would later chase him, but he would dismiss it. Was this bad?
HC was mad, his new character can't be realized now! At this moment YJY called. SQS said it's time for him to play, but HC looked at the phone without interest. He was about to connect but remembered about one person and asked HY to go out. HY refused.
HC: You influence my performance!
HY: It can be seen that you are still not good at acting. An excellent actor should not be influenced by people and things from the outside. You have entered the industry earlier than me, and you are not as professional as I am.
But before HC could show any skill the phone stopped ringing, instead it was HY's phone.
HY: Brother will show you how it's done *picks up the phone*
YJY: Tell me this is not true. You two were lying to me, right?
HC and SQS looked at each other.
HY: Lie to you? Are you worthy?
SQS - Killing the heart. Brother you are so cruel at heart. But I like it! Good job!
YJY: How can you do this? Are you worthy of Han Cheng?
HY: What qualifications do you have to mention Xiao Cheng? I am sorry for him, are you worthy of it? Yan Jiayu, you and I are both sorry for him, so if you really have some feelings for him, don't take this opportunity to tell him about the matter. When I fully understand it, and when he is ready, I will naturally tell him about me and Qingqing.
SQS tried to give a thumbs up, but his palm was pressed by HC. HY looked at it and thought that his brother and future sister-in-law were interesting.
YJY: You don't want Han Cheng to know, do you? Then you come to see me tonight alone, and we have a good talk.
HY: Are you threatening me? You really don't understand me. Go and tell Xiao Cheng, I am willing to explain to him.
HY finished speaking and hung up.
HY: Did you see it? This is the self-cultivation of actors. No matter how many people are there, whoever is there, you can act as you please.
SQS: That's right! Brother, you are really amazing! You are simply an Oscar-winning actor! Without you in the domestic film industry, it is not only the loss of the audience, but also countless directors and screenwriters.
HC: ... Didn’t you just tell me this before? Didn’t you just award this award to me? Why give it to him now!
SQS: Double actor for the both of you.
HC: !!! *he is not happy at all!*
HY's phone rang again, but he mercilessly hung up, it seemed YJY gave up on HY and switched to HC.
HC looked at his ringing phone and looked at HY, today he will demonstrate his true skills. HY leaned on his hand admiring the view with interest.
HC: Yes. What's the matter?
YJY: Don't you know? Do you know what I found?
HC: What did you find?
YJY: Shen Qingshu and your brother! Han Cheng, this is the man you like, this is the little baby you think is innocent and harmless? The result then? Now he is with your brother behind your back, do you know about it?
HC: Don't spout nonsense! *HC glanced at SQS, who was coming to watch the show, and squeezed his face* How could Qingqing do it? Don't slander him.
HY looked at the hand movements and took his phone to record at the angle he won't be caught. Don't blame him, since the love signs of his brother are too obvious. SInce SQS indulged in HC's small movements he didn't refuse.
YJY: He won't? You really look down on him! He is already with your brother now!
HC: Do you have evidence?
YJY: Of course I do. He came to xx with your brother today. I happened to ran into SQS while eating. He personally confessed that he liked your brother. If you go to him now, you might still see your good brother whom you admire so much!
When HY heard the word respect, his eyes lit up slightly, did Han Cheng still respect him? Really good! He said that his brother is the cutest in the world, so better buy him a car this Chinese New Year!
HC: What are you saying is true?
YJY: Otherwise? Would I still arrange this kind of thing?
HC: Oh, are you embarrassed to say? Why does he have such an idea and do such a thing? Isn't it your inspiration for him?
YJY: Me?
HC: Wasn't it you that ran to him and told him about you, me and my brother. How could he try to hook up with my brother after being with me! It was you who inspired him!
YJY, almost vomitting blood: I didn't!
HC: Why now? You keep saying that he doesn't really love me, just loves my money, then you go to him and tell him that I still have a brother, and my brother is richer, don't you? Just to come back to me, so let him leave me and find my brother?
YJY: How could I want him to be with your brother!
HC: Of course you could. Didn’t you say that you don’t love my brother anymore and you like me. You want to be with me. That’s why you are unscrupulous and desperate to break us apart, aren’t you?!
YJY: !!! I want you to be separated, but I didn't want him to be with your brother, because he is shameless and stepped on two boats!
HC: Enough! How can you say that Qingqing did something wrong, he is still a child, he just didn't stand up to your temptation for a while. It’s your mistake! You instigated him, misled him with your logic! Otherwise, how could he accidentally get with my brother? It’s all you, if you didn’t act, he wouldn't go to my brother at all!
SQS: !!! *surprised by this twisted logic of switching black and white, pretty!*
HC: I didn't take good care of him, leaving him alone in the filming on the crew, giving you an opportunity to bully him, I am sorry for him, I haven't fulfilled the duties and responsibilities of a boyfriend. I won't do it anymore. I will protect him and you, you'd better never show up in front of him, or don't blame me for being impolite.
Yan Jiayu I was so angry that I could hardly speak.
YJY: Are you crazy? At this time you are still defending him! What about your previous conviction? At this time, you don't think he destroys your brothers' feelings, don’t you think he used you as a springboard?!
HC: What nonsense are you talking about, do you think everyone is as twisted as you? How could Qingqing want to destroy our brotherly feelings, he simply isn't as dirty as you!
YJY: Han Cheng! He is going to give you a cuckold, do you still think he is innocent?!
HC: So according to you, my brother is the third wheeler?
SQS: ...
HY: ...
SQS silently pulled on HC's sleeve to advise cherish his life. But HC was too immersed in his role.
HC: I don't believe it, my brother is so upright, so serious, so full of justice, how can he be a junior?
HY: ...
YJY: ...
SQS tried to pull HC's sleeve, but it was futile.
HC: Why don't you speak?
YJY couldn't say that his male god is a mistress. More impossible to be one for SQS.
YJY: Shen Qingshu must have seduce him, he doesn't know anything at all!
HC: So you mean my brother is too stupid? I was fooled so easily?
HY: ...
YJY: ...
HC: Even if you think my brother is stupid, I won't think so, after all, that's my brother!
SQS: ...
YJY: I don't mean to talk about your brother, I mean to talk about Shen Qingshu!
HC: I told you everything. It's my fault. I didn't protect him well. I will protect him well in the future.
For the first time YJY felt this world is wrong.
HC: So don't bother to instigate our relationship, I tell you, even if one day he really leaves me, then I will miss him and bless him, you will never be able to replace him in my heart!
After this HC hung up the phone.
SQS: That, our script character is like this. I fell in love with you two at the same time, so my brother is not a junior. He hesitated when I chased and did not give me the answer, so you know it, mainly because I am a slag and my brother is a good man! He is not the third wheeler
HC: !!! So am I a spare tire again?!
SQS: No, no. You are not a spare tire either. I really like you too. While I am chasing him, I also chase you. When confessed, I also confessed to you, probably... confessed in WeChat group message, he received it one second earlier than you.
HC, sighing: Then you really are a scumbag!
SQS: Yes. The main reason is that I am too scumbag, so you are not a spare tire, and your brother is not a junior. It is all my fault. I do two things with one heart.
HC: I still think that you have to follow the order. Since you have promised me, he should be a junior.
HY looked at his brother comitting a crime as if he didn't want to live anymore and offered to watch a video with SQS together, HC played cool, but HY offered to get a prjector and play for entire family. Which made HC play a different tune saying that his brother can't be a junior and it is SQS who is a scumbag, his brother is too hinest and too good.
SQS raised his hand asking what video, he wanted to watch.
HC covered his mouth saying he didn't want it, so let them go home. He offered to finish the meal and said he'll go home in few days. SQS tried to ask for the video being interested what type of video made HC so guilty. HY looked at his brother, though he didn't really plan to play it, he just wanted to tease HC a bit, and while he was now satisfied he offered to go home. HY drove them home and then took HC's car to drive back to which SQS said that HY is really kind, first drives them back home and then he returns by himself. HC said that his brother is an ok person, if not for his occasional pervertness. SQS asked what video he was trying to show all the time, which made HC helplessly sigh and explain it is their performance from back when he and SQS had a play in underground parking lot in front of SQY and LH. So this makes HY know about the cage, no wonder he was aware of the cage thing. So shameful! HC said that he paid so much for SQS, SQS in return instantly tried to smooth things out comforting HC. But after this he remembered that SQS called his brother 'brother' when he promised to call only HC like that, but SQS argued how else he should call HY then? And HC had to admit that it'd be weird to use anything else and stepped back.
While Spring Festival approaches things for the Shen family were not as simple. Of course both parents praised their Xiao Yu who stayed in the company overtime, was liked by employess, unlike one ungrateful son who lived who knows where. Just remembering the encounter made mother Shen anger rise. She explained how she met SQS at the market and that he was with a person who looked good and was named Han Cheng, who was obviously mad about SQS. Last name Han did ring the bell for them, but it was too fantastical for SQS to get together with the Han clan. Mother Shen refused the most the idea, since their meeting was so unpleasant. But they suddenly thought of Xiao Xu (Xu Qi) and mother Shen decided to call XQ and inquire. XQ on his end promised SQY not to tell Shen parents about HC, but since Shen parents figured HC's relationship with SQS by themselves he didn't find the need to stay silent and sold the two right away saying that HC is the same HC as he is the second son of the richest man. These news made both parents ecstatic and they went on a rampae praising SQS how he is loved by people and what is good about SQY, they should try to invite SQS back and best HC should come along. But the fantasies were interrupted in mother Shen's head by the image of her parting with SQS and HC when she heard the phone notification that the user is busy. Both parents fell into sadness again, who would feel okay knowing that their son was connected to such a person, but their own son didn't recognize their parents.
Not long after getting home SQS got video and voice calls from both Shen parents and thought why would they get so active. HC thought they might miss him, but SQS explained that with ppl like Shen family it is impossible to be this simple, it must be something else. And the call from Xu Qi actually clarified his guess, now he knows that Shen parents finally knew HC identity and it made him extremely happy and comfortable (he even managed to joke with XQ that he will spend the New Year by himself, otherwise if he meets Han parents he won't be able to get rid off HC ever, at this point HC stuck to his back and joined the play, which made XQ have goosebumps by their perverted and oppressive love. HC warned XQ to call hm directly next time and hung up on XQ). SQS explained that Shen parents now know who HC is and actively invite him back, but all three were blocked by SQS, when they wanted to contact him the most, they couldn't contact him. He wanted to see if his parents and Shen Qingyu could live well this year. He wished them not to have a good year outloud and was ready to take a bath but HC stuck and said they should go together and he also wishes Shen family not to have a good year eharing SQS in a good mood not only not refusing bathing together, but going to the underwater world. The two had a pleasant evening.
Next day HC went to work and founf HY for a small chat asking not to tell the family about SQS and when HY asked why when HC obviously liked SQS so much, HC actually refused those words and said that he and SQS are not in this type of relationship and he didn't like SQS. This surprised HY, who thought HC signs were obvious, but now it made sense, he was only stepping on the path of his first love, so he promised to not tell Shen parents about SQS.
HC rarely thought about his future boyfirned, but he definitely new what type he'd like, he must be someone who is obedient and good and most importantly must love him very much. His bf must take the inititative to case him. As for SQS... They are just riders, he never thought of turning riders into lovers. Love should start from the heart, first he should fall in love. How can it be that you first ride the car, but then start to explore. SQS may become one of his friends in the future, but he will not become his lover.
Before leaving HC reluctantly agreed to go home and asked for a half day off, since he still thought that SQS being home alone was sad.
SQS on the contrary didn't feel sad. He was almost finished with the campus story, after all he didn't plan to make it long. While Shen parents still tried to actively invite him back home, but a ppity their numbers were blocked and SQS didn't pick up unknown numbers.
On the other end Shen parents almost had a small fight with father Shen accusing mother Shen always indulging SQY and how could SQY be absolutely guiltless if SQS didn't like him, if SQY is so perfect. In the end father Shen proposed to let SQY move out.
I'm a bit late this time, was busy first and now got myself a cold But damn, the hypocritical Shen parents. It's a pity that they're a bit too one-dimensional, but still it's fun to see their faces slapped.
After finishing speaking Han Yu took SQS along and went away, leaving YJY behind.
SQS apologized for abrupt acting, since he had no time to explain the situation with YJY he thanked HY for cooperation and explained that he doesn't like either HY or HC. Which surprised HY, but he wondered why he pissed off YJY in case they're just friends with HC? SQS explained that it was solely because what YJY did was too disgusting to him, additionally after so many years YJY doesnt feel that he did anything wrong, so SQS wanted him to feel the same he did to others. HY said that SQS cared about HC. To which SQS agreed for the reason that HC treats SQS really well and he helped to deal with mother Shen, so he pays back with interest. HY looked at SQS wondering, from the look HC likes SQS, but it seems to be one-sided. It made him wonder what really is going on between the two. Are they still in the period of ambiguity and haven't talked it out? If so, it'd explain HC's wish to hide their relationship with SQS.
Back at the box HC asked why they came back together. He was about to answer to HY's excuse that after talking to the manager he also went to the bathroom, but his phone rang and it was YJY. HC hung up directly. SQS inquired if it was YJY? And said that he can answer him this time, because he and HY played a little heater for YJY right now. HC thought for SQS it's a light comedy, sure thing for YJY it's more like a horror movies. HC looked at HY who confirmed.
HC: You two? And still a love comedy? *looking at SQS* What did you do?
SQS: What can I do? Of course piss him off and let out some steam for you.
HC: Really?
SQS: Otherwise? I'm so obedient.
HC - you're not as obedient as you show!
HC: Explain.
Inquiring why did you suddenly added male number two into the play, why never greeted him before doing those things? And it's a perverted HY to begin with, what role does he get? Cage sender? He looked at SQS thinking that this disturbance of the script looks too familiar, they hooked up the same way. This scumbag!
SQS leaned closer to say all the things that happened into HC's ear. HC looked at him as if he was insane.
HC: Are you crazy?
HC - What productive dreams, both brothers fell in love with him! And even the older one broke the sackles of morality and abandoned his brother to fall in love. He silently looked at HY as if asking if he was crazy too. HC suddenly felt sad, why he missed such a scene without even knowing about it. He should have seen how crazy his brother is, then also record it and leave it as a handle. The more HC thinks about it the more he hates it.
HC: Is the bathroom monitored?
HY: How is that possible?
Ah he was so angry, why haven't they called him secretly for acting?
HC: Why didn't you notify me of such a big event in advance?
SQS: The incident happened suddenly, but you see, he called you just now, so the latter part is your play.
HC - Can this be the same? One is a two-man show while other is just a one-man show. It should have been better if he caught these two in the toilet and later two ppl would kneel before him and SQS would later chase him, but he would dismiss it. Was this bad?
HC was mad, his new character can't be realized now! At this moment YJY called. SQS said it's time for him to play, but HC looked at the phone without interest. He was about to connect but remembered about one person and asked HY to go out. HY refused.
HC: You influence my performance!
HY: It can be seen that you are still not good at acting. An excellent actor should not be influenced by people and things from the outside. You have entered the industry earlier than me, and you are not as professional as I am.
But before HC could show any skill the phone stopped ringing, instead it was HY's phone.
HY: Brother will show you how it's done *picks up the phone*
YJY: Tell me this is not true. You two were lying to me, right?
HC and SQS looked at each other.
HY: Lie to you? Are you worthy?
SQS - Killing the heart. Brother you are so cruel at heart. But I like it! Good job!
YJY: How can you do this? Are you worthy of Han Cheng?
HY: What qualifications do you have to mention Xiao Cheng? I am sorry for him, are you worthy of it? Yan Jiayu, you and I are both sorry for him, so if you really have some feelings for him, don't take this opportunity to tell him about the matter. When I fully understand it, and when he is ready, I will naturally tell him about me and Qingqing.
SQS tried to give a thumbs up, but his palm was pressed by HC. HY looked at it and thought that his brother and future sister-in-law were interesting.
YJY: You don't want Han Cheng to know, do you? Then you come to see me tonight alone, and we have a good talk.
HY: Are you threatening me? You really don't understand me. Go and tell Xiao Cheng, I am willing to explain to him.
HY finished speaking and hung up.
HY: Did you see it? This is the self-cultivation of actors. No matter how many people are there, whoever is there, you can act as you please.
SQS: That's right! Brother, you are really amazing! You are simply an Oscar-winning actor! Without you in the domestic film industry, it is not only the loss of the audience, but also countless directors and screenwriters.
HC: ... Didn’t you just tell me this before? Didn’t you just award this award to me? Why give it to him now!
SQS: Double actor for the both of you.
HC: !!! *he is not happy at all!*
HY's phone rang again, but he mercilessly hung up, it seemed YJY gave up on HY and switched to HC.
HC looked at his ringing phone and looked at HY, today he will demonstrate his true skills. HY leaned on his hand admiring the view with interest.
HC: Yes. What's the matter?
YJY: Don't you know? Do you know what I found?
HC: What did you find?
YJY: Shen Qingshu and your brother! Han Cheng, this is the man you like, this is the little baby you think is innocent and harmless? The result then? Now he is with your brother behind your back, do you know about it?
HC: Don't spout nonsense! *HC glanced at SQS, who was coming to watch the show, and squeezed his face* How could Qingqing do it? Don't slander him.
HY looked at the hand movements and took his phone to record at the angle he won't be caught. Don't blame him, since the love signs of his brother are too obvious. SInce SQS indulged in HC's small movements he didn't refuse.
YJY: He won't? You really look down on him! He is already with your brother now!
HC: Do you have evidence?
YJY: Of course I do. He came to xx with your brother today. I happened to ran into SQS while eating. He personally confessed that he liked your brother. If you go to him now, you might still see your good brother whom you admire so much!
When HY heard the word respect, his eyes lit up slightly, did Han Cheng still respect him? Really good! He said that his brother is the cutest in the world, so better buy him a car this Chinese New Year!
HC: What are you saying is true?
YJY: Otherwise? Would I still arrange this kind of thing?
HC: Oh, are you embarrassed to say? Why does he have such an idea and do such a thing? Isn't it your inspiration for him?
YJY: Me?
HC: Wasn't it you that ran to him and told him about you, me and my brother. How could he try to hook up with my brother after being with me! It was you who inspired him!
YJY, almost vomitting blood: I didn't!
HC: Why now? You keep saying that he doesn't really love me, just loves my money, then you go to him and tell him that I still have a brother, and my brother is richer, don't you? Just to come back to me, so let him leave me and find my brother?
YJY: How could I want him to be with your brother!
HC: Of course you could. Didn’t you say that you don’t love my brother anymore and you like me. You want to be with me. That’s why you are unscrupulous and desperate to break us apart, aren’t you?!
YJY: !!! I want you to be separated, but I didn't want him to be with your brother, because he is shameless and stepped on two boats!
HC: Enough! How can you say that Qingqing did something wrong, he is still a child, he just didn't stand up to your temptation for a while. It’s your mistake! You instigated him, misled him with your logic! Otherwise, how could he accidentally get with my brother? It’s all you, if you didn’t act, he wouldn't go to my brother at all!
SQS: !!! *surprised by this twisted logic of switching black and white, pretty!*
HC: I didn't take good care of him, leaving him alone in the filming on the crew, giving you an opportunity to bully him, I am sorry for him, I haven't fulfilled the duties and responsibilities of a boyfriend. I won't do it anymore. I will protect him and you, you'd better never show up in front of him, or don't blame me for being impolite.
Yan Jiayu I was so angry that I could hardly speak.
YJY: Are you crazy? At this time you are still defending him! What about your previous conviction? At this time, you don't think he destroys your brothers' feelings, don’t you think he used you as a springboard?!
HC: What nonsense are you talking about, do you think everyone is as twisted as you? How could Qingqing want to destroy our brotherly feelings, he simply isn't as dirty as you!
YJY: Han Cheng! He is going to give you a cuckold, do you still think he is innocent?!
HC: So according to you, my brother is the third wheeler?
SQS: ...
HY: ...
SQS silently pulled on HC's sleeve to advise cherish his life. But HC was too immersed in his role.
HC: I don't believe it, my brother is so upright, so serious, so full of justice, how can he be a junior?
HY: ...
YJY: ...
SQS tried to pull HC's sleeve, but it was futile.
HC: Why don't you speak?
YJY couldn't say that his male god is a mistress. More impossible to be one for SQS.
YJY: Shen Qingshu must have seduce him, he doesn't know anything at all!
HC: So you mean my brother is too stupid? I was fooled so easily?
HY: ...
YJY: ...
HC: Even if you think my brother is stupid, I won't think so, after all, that's my brother!
SQS: ...
YJY: I don't mean to talk about your brother, I mean to talk about Shen Qingshu!
HC: I told you everything. It's my fault. I didn't protect him well. I will protect him well in the future.
For the first time YJY felt this world is wrong.
HC: So don't bother to instigate our relationship, I tell you, even if one day he really leaves me, then I will miss him and bless him, you will never be able to replace him in my heart!
After this HC hung up the phone.
SQS: That, our script character is like this. I fell in love with you two at the same time, so my brother is not a junior. He hesitated when I chased and did not give me the answer, so you know it, mainly because I am a slag and my brother is a good man! He is not the third wheeler
HC: !!! So am I a spare tire again?!
SQS: No, no. You are not a spare tire either. I really like you too. While I am chasing him, I also chase you. When confessed, I also confessed to you, probably... confessed in WeChat group message, he received it one second earlier than you.
HC, sighing: Then you really are a scumbag!
SQS: Yes. The main reason is that I am too scumbag, so you are not a spare tire, and your brother is not a junior. It is all my fault. I do two things with one heart.
HC: I still think that you have to follow the order. Since you have promised me, he should be a junior.
HY looked at his brother comitting a crime as if he didn't want to live anymore and offered to watch a video with SQS together, HC played cool, but HY offered to get a prjector and play for entire family. Which made HC play a different tune saying that his brother can't be a junior and it is SQS who is a scumbag, his brother is too hinest and too good.
SQS raised his hand asking what video, he wanted to watch.
HC covered his mouth saying he didn't want it, so let them go home. He offered to finish the meal and said he'll go home in few days. SQS tried to ask for the video being interested what type of video made HC so guilty. HY looked at his brother, though he didn't really plan to play it, he just wanted to tease HC a bit, and while he was now satisfied he offered to go home. HY drove them home and then took HC's car to drive back to which SQS said that HY is really kind, first drives them back home and then he returns by himself. HC said that his brother is an ok person, if not for his occasional pervertness. SQS asked what video he was trying to show all the time, which made HC helplessly sigh and explain it is their performance from back when he and SQS had a play in underground parking lot in front of SQY and LH. So this makes HY know about the cage, no wonder he was aware of the cage thing. So shameful! HC said that he paid so much for SQS, SQS in return instantly tried to smooth things out comforting HC. But after this he remembered that SQS called his brother 'brother' when he promised to call only HC like that, but SQS argued how else he should call HY then? And HC had to admit that it'd be weird to use anything else and stepped back.
While Spring Festival approaches things for the Shen family were not as simple. Of course both parents praised their Xiao Yu who stayed in the company overtime, was liked by employess, unlike one ungrateful son who lived who knows where. Just remembering the encounter made mother Shen anger rise. She explained how she met SQS at the market and that he was with a person who looked good and was named Han Cheng, who was obviously mad about SQS. Last name Han did ring the bell for them, but it was too fantastical for SQS to get together with the Han clan. Mother Shen refused the most the idea, since their meeting was so unpleasant.

CHAPTER 43
Get ready for the phenomen of each danmei novel - vicious female~ (I won't put the snake emoji here, since we actually have Xiao Qi and she is way cuter than the Su Luo girl).
QYY tried to stop BXG from going, saying that if he defends him now and gets things back as they were it will help SQS only once here, but Su Luo will remember and might target SQS after this drama is over. But because SQS is now a son-in-law to BXG he can't stand aside and also Su Luo just went to screenwriter as an okay person never considering asking him if he is okay with such changes, so while Su Luo and Sun Xuan were flirting (I mean they fit each other, both disgusting ppl) SL saw BXG coming and asked if he had something, but BXG poured his opinion on her, never actually mentioning SQS, but stating the fact that he brought 80% of sponsorship, he doesn't care what she acts in other crews, but since he's here he won't allow the poor quality, but she risked the future popularity of this drama and changed it to however she liked and if she was ready to be responsible, because if it continues like this and drama thanks to book readers and others will end up unsatisfactory, he won't give her face and will tell everyone that it was her insistence that brought the biggest change to this drama.
SL who for the first time was being scolded since becoming popular said that she doesn't want to play with SQS and what will it be in the end, but BXG argued that he can also not want to play with her and if she wants to play with Sun Xuan so much he can give her the opportunity, he will go to director and screenwriter, will wrap things up and change his male lead to Sun Xuan. And when the drama is filmed and the reporter will ask questions he will answer them truthfully.
SL was made tp bend, but BXG didn't give in saying that she might angry and not convinced, but who made him more popular. SL asked if his fans knew what he looked like, but BXG said that yes and also he is underage, as his agents says in the second phase of puberty, so what does she want to do with a child?
BXG turned back to QYY with proud chest and absolute victory, though QYY wondered why he feels proud about the whole puberty thing and not being ashamed. But BXG said that he just humbly accepted that QYY every day calls him a second grader.
When SQS just woke up from the nap he got notice that his play changed again. He asked why, so Jianming shared the situation. Good thing his name never surfaced in the argument and he can later thank BXG.
SQS took Xiao Qi after confirming via WeChat that BXG is in his room and went to his room, at the elevator he met SL who saw the pet snake, but as a gentleman SQS let her use elevator first and with the attention on the snake said it's just a pet snake, not poisonous. But it triggered SL regardless accusing why he brought a pet to the filming, dirtying her eyes etc and despite SQS trying to reason that it wasn't his she still went off on him. SQS realized that she just wants to vent her anger with whatever attitude he shows her, so he stopped caring (and she called the snake ugly and compared SQS and snake as both snakes and rats, like he didn't do anything actually same as the snake), since he've seen it all and he won't submit and be humble, since it won't make things better maybe even worse I'm not sure about the part he told her, something about to act like a femme fatale but nto being beautiful enough for it? he changed the phrasing, which wasn't anything big in wording but insulting in its' sense). SL's assistant and agent went off at SQS for his words and asked him to apologize, but because before SQS used I'm sorry I was wrong before he corrected him on non-beautiful femme fatale he said he already apologized ( here comes master of the word). SQS said that he is willing to apologize, but is it the same for Su Luo, if she was willing to apologize to him?
SQS: There is no reason for me to apologize alone? How lonely is that? Two people apologize together, that is the real apology. Right?
Assistant: Are you joking? Sister Su apologizing to you, who do you think you are?
SQS: Then I need to apologize to Sister Su, who does she think she is?
Assistant: Who do you think she is! Shen Qing Shu, when we talk to you, it's all about giving you face, do you understand?
SQS: Do you want this face for yourself?
Assistant: Of course!
SQS: That's easy. *stretched his hand and pointed* Come on, you apologize to her. *looking at SL* Sister Su, you can start cursing people, just follow the same pattern as you just cursed me, your assistant wants it.
SL: !!! SQS!
SQS: I'm here, so don't call me, why do you miss me so much, your assistant wants this face, don't you want to give him a copy?
Assistant: Shen Qingshu, you don't talk to our Sister Su like this!
SQS: What did I say? Didn't you want the face, I kindly helped you out. No wonder Sister Su doesn’t like you and not giving you the face, you are so irrelevant!
Assistant tried to push SQS but SQS stepped back and SL on the other hand wanted to slap him, but when SQS raised his hand to stop her it uncovered the snake on his hand and Xiao Qi feeling the danger also looked at the sourse of danger = Su Luo, which stopped SL from moving, but then she remembered that the snake is harmless, but still went off accusing that SQS wanted the snake to bite her, but SQS argued that if it wasn't for her wanting to hit him he wouldn't raise his hand and it woke the snake up and it let them meet. SL continued that she doesn't care saying that now she is frightened and he must deal with the snake or more precisely give her the snake to deal with it.
But during the last argument the voice of Han Cheng sounded behind, SQS was surprised to find that the next elevator had HC and Jianming standing next to him. SQS walked to him in surprise.
SL asked who he was, but HC simply said that he's SQS's driver and he is grumpy when somone tries to get in the way (ahahahahaha damn). But of course it didn't stop SL, she accused HC of being rude, entire SQS team being bad, demanded both to apologize and give her the snake. But Jianming intervened saying to SQS that BXG called him and asked him where he was, pushed both into elevator, ignoring SL's demands that he can't go anywhere (damn, she's so annoying, can we change her huh).
SL's assitant who wanted to stop HC and SQS, was instead stopped by Jianming who told SL that first come, first serve, Teacher Xiaobai has been waiting for some time and they can't offend him. SL went off saying that Jianming is good too (in a bad sense of course) and entered the second elevator, but inside when out of sight slapped her assistant for being confused by few words from SQS.
Assistant who was retaliated like that several times before had his own grievances, but stayed silent and then contacted director.
*All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version
Asking HC to apologize, girl, if HC goes all out you'll be cold the next day. I often meet in reviews how danmei has little adequate females and mostly they are vicious like Su Luo, but we already have two green tea bags, we need female energy here for a change jokes aside I always want to question back - then how do you build conflicts without conflicting people? SL is the needed evil here. But damn, first time for me a girl is worse than an actual snake
Get ready for the phenomen of each danmei novel - vicious female~ (I won't put the snake emoji here, since we actually have Xiao Qi and she is way cuter than the Su Luo girl).

SQS realized that she just wants to vent her anger with whatever attitude he shows her, so he stopped caring (and she called the snake ugly and compared SQS and snake as both snakes and rats, like he didn't do anything actually same as the snake), since he've seen it all and he won't submit and be humble, since it won't make things better maybe even worse I'm not sure about the part he told her, something about to act like a femme fatale but nto being beautiful enough for it? he changed the phrasing, which wasn't anything big in wording but insulting in its' sense). SL's assistant and agent went off at SQS for his words and asked him to apologize, but because before SQS used I'm sorry I was wrong before he corrected him on non-beautiful femme fatale he said he already apologized ( here comes master of the word). SQS said that he is willing to apologize, but is it the same for Su Luo, if she was willing to apologize to him?
SQS: There is no reason for me to apologize alone? How lonely is that? Two people apologize together, that is the real apology. Right?
Assistant: Are you joking? Sister Su apologizing to you, who do you think you are?
SQS: Then I need to apologize to Sister Su, who does she think she is?
Assistant: Who do you think she is! Shen Qing Shu, when we talk to you, it's all about giving you face, do you understand?
SQS: Do you want this face for yourself?
Assistant: Of course!
SQS: That's easy. *stretched his hand and pointed* Come on, you apologize to her. *looking at SL* Sister Su, you can start cursing people, just follow the same pattern as you just cursed me, your assistant wants it.
SL: !!! SQS!
SQS: I'm here, so don't call me, why do you miss me so much, your assistant wants this face, don't you want to give him a copy?
Assistant: Shen Qingshu, you don't talk to our Sister Su like this!
SQS: What did I say? Didn't you want the face, I kindly helped you out. No wonder Sister Su doesn’t like you and not giving you the face, you are so irrelevant!
Assistant tried to push SQS but SQS stepped back and SL on the other hand wanted to slap him, but when SQS raised his hand to stop her it uncovered the snake on his hand and Xiao Qi feeling the danger also looked at the sourse of danger = Su Luo, which stopped SL from moving, but then she remembered that the snake is harmless, but still went off accusing that SQS wanted the snake to bite her, but SQS argued that if it wasn't for her wanting to hit him he wouldn't raise his hand and it woke the snake up and it let them meet. SL continued that she doesn't care saying that now she is frightened and he must deal with the snake or more precisely give her the snake to deal with it.
But during the last argument the voice of Han Cheng sounded behind, SQS was surprised to find that the next elevator had HC and Jianming standing next to him. SQS walked to him in surprise.
SL asked who he was, but HC simply said that he's SQS's driver and he is grumpy when somone tries to get in the way (ahahahahaha damn). But of course it didn't stop SL, she accused HC of being rude, entire SQS team being bad, demanded both to apologize and give her the snake. But Jianming intervened saying to SQS that BXG called him and asked him where he was, pushed both into elevator, ignoring SL's demands that he can't go anywhere (damn, she's so annoying, can we change her huh).
SL's assitant who wanted to stop HC and SQS, was instead stopped by Jianming who told SL that first come, first serve, Teacher Xiaobai has been waiting for some time and they can't offend him. SL went off saying that Jianming is good too (in a bad sense of course) and entered the second elevator, but inside when out of sight slapped her assistant for being confused by few words from SQS.
Assistant who was retaliated like that several times before had his own grievances, but stayed silent and then contacted director.
*All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version
Asking HC to apologize, girl, if HC goes all out you'll be cold the next day. I often meet in reviews how danmei has little adequate females and mostly they are vicious like Su Luo, but we already have two green tea bags, we need female energy here for a change jokes aside I always want to question back - then how do you build conflicts without conflicting people? SL is the needed evil here. But damn, first time for me a girl is worse than an actual snake

CHAPTER 50
(I must admit that SQS and HC when they talk have such a trust for each other and share anything that many dating couples don't have, but also can troll each other and despite the fleating anger still go on)
As HC was talking he realized.
HC: Wait, Yan Jiayu?
SQS: Yeah
HC: Not Shen QingYu?
SQS: No
HC: The if I.. he'd say it to..
SQS: Don't worry. Just that sentence doesn't describe our suffocating love, don't worry. I just thought of this, so I immediately hung up for fear that your next sentence will be about buying me a cage.
HC thought he'd be happy if YJY ignored his sentence and won't babble
HC: We need to set a code.
SQS: Code?
HC: When it is someone from your side you call me 'Han Cheng', so I can satisfy your suffocating love, but if it's someone from my side is bothering you call me 'dear' and it will show how you love me so much.
SQS: My dear?
HC: Thta's it.
SQS: But "My dear, let's break up" sounds weird.
HC: That just means you still like me and don't really want to break up.
SQS: Let's do it then.
HC: So what did Yan Jiayu say to you? Why would he know where you are? He went there specifically?
SQS: Of course it was to provoke us. Our drama had a clip posted today and went on a hot search. He may have seen it on the hot search and found that I turned out to be an actor. He felt that I was approaching you for this purpose, so he couldn’t wait to come over to teach me and provoke me. Of course, in the end he can only leave in despair.
HC: Next time you don't meet him, it will save time.
SQS: Well, that's still. Otherwise how can I get unexpected gains?
HC: Gains?
SQS: Dear, Han Cheng, driver, brother, why on earth do you hate Yan Jiayu so much?
HC: ... *having a bad premonition* What do you want to say?
SQS: I didn't want to say anything, I'm just curious, can you help me answer it?
HC: No. It's because of you, so don't ask.
SQS: Is it? Isn't it because Yan JiaYu used you as a spare tire?
HC: !!! What are you talking about?!
SQS: Am I right? Hahahahahaha, Yan JiaYu actually used you as a spare tire, you are too miserable.
HC, gritting teeth: Shen QingShu, I advise you to be kinder.
SQS: I don't. How many times have you bullied me? Finally, now I have the 'chanting' skills, why don't you let me use it?
HC: You want to chant? Okay, then don't blame me for being rude.
SQS: Come on~ You just read my article with emotion~
HC being angry and opening the article and tryig to read: He raised his hand and slowly stroked..
SQS: Yan JiaYu treats you as a spare tire.
HC: Stroked his face..
SQS: Yan JiaYu treats you as a spare tire.
HC: His face is red and warm..
SQS: Yan JiaYu takes you as a spare tire.
HC: Enough! *leaning and looking as if he was dead* He never thought there would be such a day. SQS turned into a chanter and even suppressed him, the wealthy landlord. So frightening!
SQS, hearing no answer: Do you feel very depressed? Isn't it painful? Do you want to plug your ears so that you have never heard it again?
HC: Humph! *SQS is no longer the person of yesterday, he is now a person who posseses a curse*
SQS: My dear, why don't you speak?
HC:... DO you still want me to talk?
SQS: Of course~ I respect your right to speak, but I also respect my right to use skills.*smile* So Han Cheng, brother, it's better to be nice to me in the future, otherwise... hee hee.
HC feels desperate
SQS: Then I'm going to film my dear, I'll talk at night~
HC: No need, filming is so hard, you should go to bed early. Staying up late is not good for your health!
SQS: How can it be done? Wasn't it you who asked me to reflect on my life and report to you once in the morning and in the evening? I remember~
HC:... *cheap mouth, now there will be more tonight. he shouldn't have let SQS so free in the end, he should buy him a cage and lock him up!*
HC leaned back in his chair thinking how miserable he was, he never told SQS for this exact reason, he knew SQS would laugh, but he not only laughed but used it. He's not human. Has no heart! He wants to gain "chanting" skills regardless of the fragile heart of this old driver. YJY you're too good! Why didn't I kill you at that time? It was better to fight so you won't open your mouth again and become a pig so soon (pig teammate reference). HC can't wait to sharped a knife and cut him, since there's New Year soon it's a time to eat pork, but thsi meat will be cursed anyway and affect IQ of the eater.
YJY didn't know that he was chopped by HC and waited for one person. When he saw BXG he switched on his compassionate caring personality.
BXG: Are you looking for me?
YJY: Yeah. I just passed by. I heard that you were filming here, so I came to see you.
BXG frowned, they didn't have such a great relationship, they saw each other only several times at max. What type of visiting when passing by?
BXG: Thank you.
YJY: You're welcome, by the way, before I returned to China, I ate with your brother several times abroad.
BXG, disgusted: I still have a brother? (recalloction for those who don't remember, BXG's father married the woman, she also brought a step-son, when BXG's father divorced both mother and son went abroad, judging by following words from BXG the relationship isn't that great, so YJY choosing this to attack is really......)
YJY: That's Wu Jing.
BXG, indifferently: I don't remember.
YJY: Don't you remember? He still cares about you.
BXG: Is that so? There are more people who care about me
YJY: ...
BXG: Is there anything else? If not then I'll go.
YJY: I want to trouble you.
BXG: You say.
YJY: Shen QingShu of your crew, how's the relationship between you?
BXG thought of previous things that happened and didn't answer at first which YJY interpreted as if relationship was bad so he went with it.
YJY: I know his brother, and their family is actually different. They didn’t support his development in the entertainment industry, but he insisted on going his own way and then joined the crew, so I hope you can give him some pressure so that he can understand that the entertainment industry is messy and let him go home as soon as possible to inherit the family business. It’s a kind deed for you, XiaoBai, you should be willing to fulfill their family’s painstaking efforts, right? (it's like such an obvious lie I want to punch him and BXG hates being called Xiao Bai)
YJY worked on this excuse while in the car and thought that despite the relationship being good or bad he can use this "for his own good" rhethoric, especially now when relationship is bad. He was waiting for BXG answer, but.
BXG: Did you not tell Han Cheng this before you came?
YJY shocked, why did he know that HC and SQS are together?
YJY: Why mention Han Cheng suddenly? Did someone tell you something about him?
BXG thought that YJY was friend with HC so he kidnly reminded: If you do this, Han Cheng will be angry with you. (what a good boy)
YJY: Why?
BXG: Of course because he liked Shen QingShu.
YJY: Did Shen QingShu tell you that?
BXG: Of course not, Han Cheng told himself.
YJY: !!! What did you say? He told you personally?
BXG: Otherwise? He just left a few days ago.
YJY: ... *so he really does like SQS. Not only helped with resources but also accompanied him to the filming* Brother Xiao Bai, did you misunderstand something?
BXG: I know it's hard to believe. After all, he just put down his persona in order to get close to Shen Qingshu, disguised his identity only wanted to be able to stay by his side. Quite unrealistic, but it is really true and I am also surprised.
YJY thougt who is he talking about, Han Cheng? Disguised his identity? Han Cheng the proud son of heaven?
This is basically all re-telling the dialogues, but if it wasn't obvious it's the main thing XD I wonder if BXG will share his encounter with YJY to SQS who is now in sensitive period but I think they will end up being friends anyway, otherwise I'd be sad, BXG is such a good boy and deserves space in the future development
(I must admit that SQS and HC when they talk have such a trust for each other and share anything that many dating couples don't have, but also can troll each other and despite the fleating anger still go on)
As HC was talking he realized.

CHAPTER 44
HC and SQS went down in the elevator and HC asked if this is the actual turn of events unlike what he reports him, SQS felt guilty, but said usually that girl was all ok, only today she decided to confront him and he already solved everything
Jianming sent a message how all is clear and HC can come up to take a rest. HC asked what he's going to do, so SQS explained he'll get the pet back and showed the small white snake and when he's done he'll come back. HC wonders if it's the same snake that Su Luo talked about, while the snake looked harmless. But where did he get it, so SQS had to say he helped to raise it, but HC had the sour smell asking who and SQS already not knowing how HC has no confidence talked about BXG who is 17 y.o.
Looking at the snake HC asked why it behaves, so SQS proudly said that maybe he is Xu Xian, but HC insisted that he is Xiao Qing, after all he has same name. So the jokes are all about it that although SQS insisted that he's a man, in thousand of reincarnations you can change gender etc.
(Note: To get this reference you need to know Legend of the White Snake. Since in basic story Xu Xuan is the beloved to the white snake lady, and Xiao Qing is a good sister who was rescued by the White Snake)
SQS was flustered and snorted for HC to go back and not affect his work and HC asked if his job is to see the snake's old man? (lol BXG turned into old man). So HC joked to bring a Leifeng pagoda next time (in the legend the white snake lady was imprisoned in this pagoda. That's why SQS told him he's too cruel). HC sent the snake and Xiao Qing to see the father.
When SQS saw BXG he thanked him for this time and showed him the white snake, but actually BXG called him son-in-law, later corrected to future son-in-law and explained since his girl, the white snake, likes him so much so he's future son-in-law, which made SQS surprised that again the legend of white snake.
SQS cautiously said that he's just a human and the snake is 1000 years away from obtaining wisdom, but BXG said that kids can. So SQS had to say that he's a law abiding citizen in republic of China and the two better live their own lives. BXG confirmed that he dislikes it, to which SQS refused saying the race is different, that he's shallow person bound by race, despite BXG profound phrase that love is never bound by race. But SQS went for the kill saying he treats the snake as a friend ( lol what am I reading I cry).
BXG decided t drop the son-in-law matter ad said that when they're frirneds now he can call him uncle. SQS: ....
SQS and BXG talked how they should address each other and talked a bit and leaving Xiao Qi behind he went back, but before asking Xiao Li to bring BXG his stuff back he got visitors, Su Luo, Sun Xuan, SL's assistant and some crew members. From the get-go SL accused him to raise snakes and instigating them to attack her and the crew member asked SQS to give the snake and apologize with Sun Xuan repeating like a parrot and saying isn't SQS a psychopath to raise a snake (I mean dude, you're the one).
SQS played as if he lost the pet and was about to go search fearing the snake might scare BXG, walked outside followed by SL's assistant and met HC and Jianming. HC grabbed his hand asking what he's doing and SQS whispered that he's playing~ and said that he invites him to watch the play, director, screenwriter and actor is his only little car.
SQS pulled ppl along and started acting saying he's scared that BXG might be scared to death, what should he do. HC looked and asked himself if the play already started, isn't he too fast to enter into the role. SL snorted thinking SQS's dead
BXG heard a knock and thought it was SQS with incubator so he unsuspectingly opened the door only to see the trio. SL screamed and pointed at the snake while Sun Xuan tried to reach out and catch it, but BXG asked what he was doing. But Sun XUan said that he shouldn't be scared he will catch this disgusting creature, it's because SQS brought such a thing to the crew, would a normal person raise a snake. BXG: !!! what did he say? And SL's assistant added to the drama saying that just now SQS instigated the snake to bite SL and if it wasn't for her fast reaction she'd be on her way to the hospital, only people with unhealthy minds would raise snakes. SL added on top that SQS is deliberate so he can loose the snake and when BXG gets scared SQS will come over and save the day/beauty. But she will call the crew chef and ask them to cook the snake soup, so SQS won't design again.
SQS watched with relish that the effect was what he wanted to see, same was HC who looked at close at this masterpiece.
SQS came and called for Xiao Qi, which instigaed the crowd to say few more things. But SQS winked at BXG and kept playing, saying the his pet went loose and BXG supported the play that it was okay. But SL said that SQS is deliberate. BXG nodded, so SL turned to SQS and said that see you don't know good or bad, with how BXG helped him on the front foot he calculated BXG at the hind foot.
SQS played the white lotus and asked BXG to believe him. SL expected BXG to not believe, and as long as BXG hates SQS things will be good. But BXG said he believes, which made SL unbelievable. Despite hearing BXG say that all pets are friends, but SL said that snake is the most disgusting pet. But BXG retorted calling SL the disgusting one, snakes are also pets and he also saw the legend of the white snake when he was a kid and this white snake is one from his dreams so he asked SQS to bring it to play. SQS said he was glad but pretended to be pitiful that it will become a snake soup, so BXG said that if they dare! BXG turned to SX and asked if he wants to eat other people's pets, is he still a human? SX tried to defend that it's a snake, but BXG told him to shut up, how can he say things like snake soup in front of animal activists, and called him an ugly human. SQS asked if he doesn't find snakes disgusting and that people who raise them are abnormal, but BXG retorted how can such a cute pet be disgusting? and SQS is a kind person, unlike some, he looked at SL, who have human form but disgusting heart. Only then SQS turned to SL and asked if she still wants to catch the snake, but BXG interrupted that if she dares. But SL really didn't dare. SQS turned to BXG and said that for paying for this life-saving grace he will give the snake to him, otherwise he fears it will not escapte the fate of becoming a snake soup one day. BXG played a happy person calling SQS the cutest person and claiming him a best friend. Which left others speechless. BXG turned and asked others to hurry up and apologize to his friend and his pet for calling them disgusting and abnormal and those who scolded happily now apologize.
HC outside this circle watched the scene with relish and thought he now understand why his brother refuses to delete the video, it's actually so much fun to watch it like this and the little car in his play just made these people to apologize through their teeth. If his friends WY, YMY and ZJM all have same experience watching he may start collecting money for selling tickets.
BXG is not only a good boy, but a smart boy, he caught up the play and had the chance to call all these people disgusting to their faces and the situation turned tides in such a cool way. But I also died for HC's reaction, he has sense of humor
HC and SQS went down in the elevator and HC asked if this is the actual turn of events unlike what he reports him, SQS felt guilty, but said usually that girl was all ok, only today she decided to confront him and he already solved everything
Jianming sent a message how all is clear and HC can come up to take a rest.

But SQS went for the kill saying he treats the snake as a friend ( lol what am I reading I cry).
BXG decided t drop the son-in-law matter ad said that when they're frirneds now he can call him uncle. SQS: ....
SQS and BXG talked how they should address each other and talked a bit and leaving Xiao Qi behind he went back, but before asking Xiao Li to bring BXG his stuff back he got visitors, Su Luo, Sun Xuan, SL's assistant and some crew members. From the get-go SL accused him to raise snakes and instigating them to attack her and the crew member asked SQS to give the snake and apologize with Sun Xuan repeating like a parrot and saying isn't SQS a psychopath to raise a snake (I mean dude, you're the one).
SQS played as if he lost the pet and was about to go search fearing the snake might scare BXG, walked outside followed by SL's assistant and met HC and Jianming. HC grabbed his hand asking what he's doing and SQS whispered that he's playing~ and said that he invites him to watch the play, director, screenwriter and actor is his only little car.
SQS pulled ppl along and started acting saying he's scared that BXG might be scared to death, what should he do. HC looked and asked himself if the play already started, isn't he too fast to enter into the role. SL snorted thinking SQS's dead
BXG heard a knock and thought it was SQS with incubator so he unsuspectingly opened the door only to see the trio. SL screamed and pointed at the snake while Sun Xuan tried to reach out and catch it, but BXG asked what he was doing. But Sun XUan said that he shouldn't be scared he will catch this disgusting creature, it's because SQS brought such a thing to the crew, would a normal person raise a snake. BXG: !!! what did he say? And SL's assistant added to the drama saying that just now SQS instigated the snake to bite SL and if it wasn't for her fast reaction she'd be on her way to the hospital, only people with unhealthy minds would raise snakes. SL added on top that SQS is deliberate so he can loose the snake and when BXG gets scared SQS will come over and save the day/beauty. But she will call the crew chef and ask them to cook the snake soup, so SQS won't design again.
SQS watched with relish that the effect was what he wanted to see, same was HC who looked at close at this masterpiece.
SQS came and called for Xiao Qi, which instigaed the crowd to say few more things. But SQS winked at BXG and kept playing, saying the his pet went loose and BXG supported the play that it was okay. But SL said that SQS is deliberate. BXG nodded, so SL turned to SQS and said that see you don't know good or bad, with how BXG helped him on the front foot he calculated BXG at the hind foot.
SQS played the white lotus and asked BXG to believe him. SL expected BXG to not believe, and as long as BXG hates SQS things will be good. But BXG said he believes, which made SL unbelievable. Despite hearing BXG say that all pets are friends, but SL said that snake is the most disgusting pet. But BXG retorted calling SL the disgusting one, snakes are also pets and he also saw the legend of the white snake when he was a kid and this white snake is one from his dreams so he asked SQS to bring it to play. SQS said he was glad but pretended to be pitiful that it will become a snake soup, so BXG said that if they dare! BXG turned to SX and asked if he wants to eat other people's pets, is he still a human? SX tried to defend that it's a snake, but BXG told him to shut up, how can he say things like snake soup in front of animal activists, and called him an ugly human. SQS asked if he doesn't find snakes disgusting and that people who raise them are abnormal, but BXG retorted how can such a cute pet be disgusting? and SQS is a kind person, unlike some, he looked at SL, who have human form but disgusting heart. Only then SQS turned to SL and asked if she still wants to catch the snake, but BXG interrupted that if she dares. But SL really didn't dare. SQS turned to BXG and said that for paying for this life-saving grace he will give the snake to him, otherwise he fears it will not escapte the fate of becoming a snake soup one day. BXG played a happy person calling SQS the cutest person and claiming him a best friend. Which left others speechless. BXG turned and asked others to hurry up and apologize to his friend and his pet for calling them disgusting and abnormal and those who scolded happily now apologize.
HC outside this circle watched the scene with relish and thought he now understand why his brother refuses to delete the video, it's actually so much fun to watch it like this and the little car in his play just made these people to apologize through their teeth. If his friends WY, YMY and ZJM all have same experience watching he may start collecting money for selling tickets.
BXG is not only a good boy, but a smart boy, he caught up the play and had the chance to call all these people disgusting to their faces and the situation turned tides in such a cool way. But I also died for HC's reaction, he has sense of humor

CHAPTER 89-90
(Happy Women's Day, let's cry together)
SQS wrote it off as him being emotional. To consider SQS's mood HC agreed to sleep separately. EVen though SQS was the one who offered it he felt reluctant, but agreed.
HC squeezed his face, told him to rest early and left. SQS watched him off before slowly closing the door. He stood leaning against the closed door before slowly returning back to room. Instead of sleeping he continued to read the script, since when he reads the script he calms down. Reading for a while he heard a knock, behind the door were two assistants of the earlier arrived heroine, Lu Xue, who gave SQS fruits box they prepared for the crew. He picked up half and went to HC with the other half, but no one answered when he knocked on the door. He took out his cellphone and called after no one answered his second knock and asked if HC was outside. HC asked if he was looking for him and told SQS to wait, he'll be back in a minute. But SQS heard BJ's voice on the other end of the phone asking if it was him and if he was looking for HC. SQS didn't say anything, it was the second time that in a place he didn't know HC met BJ again. This si so-called fate, destined love. So SQS brushed it off that it was nothing and he didn't need to come back. HC wanted to answer, but SQS already hung up. HC looked at BJ and said he's going back. BJ thanked him for helping him again and asked him out to have dinner as a 'thank you', but HC resolutely refused again and walked away without looking back.
HC went to SQS's room, SQS was surprised to see him and asked him why he got back, thinking wasn't he with BJ? But HC asked if he wasn't looking for him. SQS smiled slightly and went back to get fruit box and explained that the actress shared the fruits boxes with the crew and he wanted to share it with HC. HC picked up all the fruits that SQS and left those for SQS.
SQS asked if he was with BJ and HC said they weren't destined. Speaking of it HC was a little helpless and explained that after he got the room card he saw BJ being bullied, so he helped. SQS asked if it was a hero saving, but HC didn't take it seriously, he just helped. SQS again said he should admit that the two were quite fateful to meet, it was the second time and this time BJ is even part of his crew. HC said that every time it's just like encountering trouble. But SQS insisted that it's not a trouble, it's fate. HC laughed and asked if he knew what fate is, he advised to read his script carefully, knocking on SQS's head. SQS thought that he does not only know what fate is, but how deep fate is between you two. When he thought of this he felt it won't take long for HC and BJ to know each other and fall in love.
SQS, gently: Han Cheng, let me ask you a question.
HC: What?
SQS: Do you still remember those riders before me? You never mentioned it to me. How does myself as a rider compare with those before me? Is it particularly good, particularly qualified?
HC: !!! Why asking this suddenly?
SQS: Just curious, which cars have you driven.
HC: I forgot. I had so many riders, who can remember them one by one. When should I remember them?
SQS: There wasn't at least one you rmember?
HC: No. It's all in the past. Whoever has sense will turn over this memory.
SQS listened, feeling as if he was stabbed by something. HC won't remember. But indeed, who will look through such memory. It's to nappropriate.
SQS blinked and looked at the person in front of him silently. He really has a good looks. The tail of his eyes is upturned, the bridge of his nose is straight, and his lips are thin, but he doesn't make people feel unkind, probably because of him. The eyes are good-looking, peach blossoms, and they seem to be filled with friendliness. Every time they look at you, it is as if you are in his heart. It seemed really affectionate.
HC asked why he looked at him like that suddenly, but SQS asked back if he knew a poem '偶然' by Xu Zhimo? And SQS quoted the lines about the cloud in the sky, projecting emotions, but they don't need a rejoice in return, they will disappear in an instant, since one has their own direction, same as the other has their own direction, it's better to forget this randezvous when lights shine on each other.
HC: Why do you say this suddenly?
SQS, smiling: You look so good.
HC, proud: That's true. But what does this have to do with the poem?
SQS, chuckled: Go back, it's late, I'm going to sleep.
HC: So you just suddenly became poetic?
SQS: Can't I? I'm an author, can't I think of some literary creations.
HC thought he was a little strange, but it is true, who made him an author besides an actor, but he would occasionally become a literary artist.
HC, warmly: Then, I'm leaving.
SQS sent HC off and walked as the other person walked further and further away.
It was another night with unsteady dream, when awake SQS couldn't remember what the dream was about. Getting out of bed he sent HC a message inquiring if he was awake, HC answered to open door for him in two minutes. SQS who opened the door saw HC with holding a bag with breakfast. He let him in asking why he woke up so early. HC said that it's thank to sleeping in separate rooms he got up so earlt, all thanks to SQS, since it's been a long time he slept alone. SQS asked if he wasn't sleeping alone on business trips, but HC asked how could those two be compared. SQS told him to eat more, since he worked so hard.
They finished eating and SQS was ready to go film, after dressing up and make-up he was called by MZ, this time HC didn't follow, just watched from the distance. MZ invited him to the movies with only the two of them under the guise of looking at other people performances. SQS thought that HC would definitely not agree to this, so he refused with excuse he had things that day. MZ asked to change it for the other day or the problem was that he doesn't want to go with him. SQS refused this notion, but MZ laid out his assumption that it might have been SQS's friend (HC) who doesn't like him, so SQS might not like him as well. He also asked if HC is a friend, which SQS confirmed. SQS excused HC that it wasn't about like or dislike, just him not paying to emotions at times, but with no ill will.
MZ: Really? I thought he didn't like me walking too close to you?
SQS: No
MZ, asking suddenly: Are you single?
SQS, subconsciously nodded: Um.
MZ: If you are single, you don't have to worry about other people's opinions, you can follow your own ideas. Go back and think about it, I'm waiting for your reply.
SQS was a little helpless when he heard his words, but MZ is a senior, and he takes care of himself. At this time, if he is rejected twice in a row, it's a bit too bad. Although he didn't want to have a deep friendship with Meng Zhi, he didn't want to have any bad ties with him, so he nodded politely, planning to wait until tomorrow to find another interface to refuse.
SQS: Then I will go back and check the time. If you really can't arrange it, don't blame me, Brother Meng.
MZ: Of course.
MZ watched SQS leaving and thought that SQS answered yes to being single and if he is single now, it's good then.
HC who heard from SQS about MZ's request only confirmed that MZ was up to no good. With so many people he only asked SQS to watch the movie. HC asked SQS to agree, but it will be three of them to watch it and he will let MZ watch enough. He knew his intuition was nto wrong, now this spicy chicken tries to pry his corner and eyes his supercar, despite other people.
HC: I want him to see whose you are.
SQS - ... I will soon be no longer yours, wake up, yours is over there!
SQS: I'm not going.
HC: Why?
SQS: You made it clear that you are going to make trouble, why should I promise you. Brother Meng is good to me, accompanies to read the lines and guides me, I don't want you to do things.
HC with mood worsening: Oh, I didn't see it, you're still protecting him.
SQS: Anyway, I won't watch the movie. Whether it's the two people he proposed or the three people you proposed, so don't always target him. He can see that you have opinions on him.
HC: Then he should reflect why do I have an opinion on him.
SQS: ...
SQS - As expected of Han Cheng.
SQS expected to talk about it later, but did not expect MZ find him right after the play. But he still refused MZ excusing for being busy.
MZ: Qingshu, you should be able to feel it, I actually have a good impression of you, so I want to get in touch with you further, and I want to ask you to watch a movie. Is this okay?
SQS was shocked. He could really feel MZ's care for him, but he didn't expect Meng Zhi to be like this to him.
SQS: I'm sorry I...
MZ, interrupting: Don't refuse in such a hurry. You can think about it again. You are single and I am single. You don't reject me and I will treat you well, so we can definitely go one step closer. You can try to contact me more and give me a chance. If later you find it inappropriate and you don’t like it, you can stop at any time. The initiative is in your hands. Is it not good?
SQS: I...
MZ: I said, don't be anxious to refuse, you can think about it.
SQS: But...
MZ: Qingshu,you have rejected me three times today, and I am your senior, occasionally give me some face, this request is not too much, right?
SQS: ...
SQS didn't speak anymore.
MZ: I hope you can seriously consider it. My conditions are actually pretty good. Although friends are very important, you shouldn't even talk about love for your friends?
SQS looked up, knowing he meant HC.
They bid farewell, MZ saw SQS walk away and thought if it wasn't for him to pierce this paper window, SQS might not be single by that time and he will lose any qualifications to talk. He sat on the sofa remembering the first time he saw him and having a good impression of him.
SQS returned to the room and sat on the sofa a little dazedly. Thinking that MZ actually liked him? What could he like in him? Face? Or something else? He couldn't understand, but his heart was completely calm after this confession. Therefore he definitely doesn't liek MZ. But what he actually liked? A gentle person? MZ should be gentle. Good looking? MZ fits that too. What else? Can he understand and respect him? Seem to be able to do these things. He realized that MZ was in line with what he'd like to see in his partner, but to his surprise he felt nothing for MZ. He thought why this was the case? Maybe because they didn't have much contact. But then why MZ has feelings for him?
SQS sighed that it was difficult. No wonder he didn't fall in love in his previous life. This made him think that his biggest regrets before death were that he never drove a car and never fell in love. he never experienced that passion everyone talked about. But now that he had driven the car, only love left. And from this perspective MZ was not out of options. Feelings can be cultivated. MZ also meets his standards. MZ also said that if he won't feel it, he can stop anytime. He was struggling only to hear a knock on the door, finding HC standing.
HC checked the time and though he didn't want SQS to meet with MZ, but who made MZ the senior on court, if SQS doesn't go who knows how it might affect his career. HC said that it's better to become an actor if he wants to accompany SQS, SQS said that there is no better career than being the boss. HC questioned why he was still an actor then, but SQS answered that he has no capital, if he was born as a son of a richest man, he wouldn't become an actor either. HC felt better after these words. He stretched out his hand, leaning, ready to kiss SQS, but SQS unconsciously stepped back.
HC: ???
SQS: ...
SQS tried to excuse that it was because of the character settings. HC felt that something was wrong, although the movie is a more serious matter, but he doesn't act as a monk, just a little sunny policeman right after graduation.
HC: Really can't kiss?
SQS *nods*
HC: Then I will sleep with you tonight.
SQS: Didn't you say you will sleep in your room?
HC: I can't sleep well, I had bad time sleeping last night.
SQS: Then you try again tonight?
HC: I said that I didn't sleep well and you want me to try again?
SQS: In the face of setbacks, we have to face the difficulties, actively defeat it, and overcome it?
HC: What's the matter with you? Whether it was filming before or recording a variety show, didn't I share the same bed with you? Since we met each other, we can count the number of times we slept separately. You suddenly don't want to sleep with me now? Shen Qingshu, are you not telling me something?
SQS: No.
HC: Then we will sleep together tonight.
SQS: We use two quilts.
HC: ...
HC, approaching and whispering: In a quilt I hold you to sleep, not only do I hold you, but I also have to give you good night kisses, good morning kisses and various kisses.
HC bit the apple he was holding with such look as if it wasn't an apple his was biting, but SQS's flesh and blood.
SQS: ...
SQS stopped arguing and let it go. But when HC asked him to go to the bathroom and he could take him he went by himself. HC thought of that look and though is it a blatant dislike, something happened and the matter is big. He waited for SQS to come out before asking:
HC: You really have nothing to hide from me?
SQS: Of course not.
HC: That's the best.
HC went to take a shower. Coming back and opening the quilt he patted the place beside him.
HC: Come on, baby~
SQS: Is it really impossible to have two quilts?
HC: How can this work? How can I kiss you and hug you with two quilts? We not only want a quilt to sleep, we also have to treat each other sincerely, you have me in you, and you in me.
SQS: !!! I'm not on the road tonight.
HC: Don't worry, if you say you won't, I'll just hug you.
SQS was worried, in case HC wanted to hug and kiss, it wasn't impossible at all, but HC's future boyfriend lived in the same hotel. How can he be in a quilt with him and hug him?
HC: Not coming yet?
SQS felt that he was about to collapse. It is impossible for him to know that BJ is upstairs, and he is unscrupulously is close to HC. This is too much, he can't do it. He looked at HC, no matter how much he didn't want him to be sad, but they will always have this day, and HC will end the relationship with him, not now, but in the future. He worked hard and hopes that HC will like BJ as soon as possible, and then transfer his interest to him, and later talk to himself to dismiss the car-friend relationship, so that he will not feel uncomfortable because this relationship ends. However, he really couldn't wait for that day. He couldn't stay close to HC after BJ appeared. His morality didn't allow him to do so, so in the end, he had to end this relationship.
SQS: I...
SQS looked at HC who had a smile in his eyes, it was too familiar. With a bit of proud look, but holding back a smile, because of making jokes. He would do this every time he wanted to make him laugh, and then smile and hold him after his success, while kissing and coaxing. SQS never hated HC for teasing him, so every time HC was able to succeed. But this time he was destined not to continue to smile and hold him like before.
SQS: Han Cheng, I can't sleep under the same quilt with you. *saying quietly* Let’s dissolve the car-friend relationship, I’m sorry.
Partially I think SQS doesn't realize at this moment that his thoughts of HC meeting BJ somewhere he doesn't know about might not be that HC and BJ are destined, but it has sour taste of subconscious jealousy. I might be wrong, just imo.
Every time I spend several hours intermittenly writing spoilers I hope people still read this.
(Happy Women's Day, let's cry together)
SQS wrote it off as him being emotional. To consider SQS's mood HC agreed to sleep separately. EVen though SQS was the one who offered it he felt reluctant, but agreed.

Good looking? MZ fits that too. What else? Can he understand and respect him? Seem to be able to do these things. He realized that MZ was in line with what he'd like to see in his partner, but to his surprise he felt nothing for MZ. He thought why this was the case? Maybe because they didn't have much contact. But then why MZ has feelings for him?
SQS sighed that it was difficult. No wonder he didn't fall in love in his previous life. This made him think that his biggest regrets before death were that he never drove a car and never fell in love. he never experienced that passion everyone talked about. But now that he had driven the car, only love left. And from this perspective MZ was not out of options. Feelings can be cultivated. MZ also meets his standards. MZ also said that if he won't feel it, he can stop anytime. He was struggling only to hear a knock on the door, finding HC standing.
HC checked the time and though he didn't want SQS to meet with MZ, but who made MZ the senior on court, if SQS doesn't go who knows how it might affect his career. HC said that it's better to become an actor if he wants to accompany SQS, SQS said that there is no better career than being the boss. HC questioned why he was still an actor then, but SQS answered that he has no capital, if he was born as a son of a richest man, he wouldn't become an actor either. HC felt better after these words. He stretched out his hand, leaning, ready to kiss SQS, but SQS unconsciously stepped back.
HC: ???
SQS: ...
SQS tried to excuse that it was because of the character settings. HC felt that something was wrong, although the movie is a more serious matter, but he doesn't act as a monk, just a little sunny policeman right after graduation.
HC: Really can't kiss?
SQS *nods*
HC: Then I will sleep with you tonight.
SQS: Didn't you say you will sleep in your room?
HC: I can't sleep well, I had bad time sleeping last night.
SQS: Then you try again tonight?
HC: I said that I didn't sleep well and you want me to try again?
SQS: In the face of setbacks, we have to face the difficulties, actively defeat it, and overcome it?
HC: What's the matter with you? Whether it was filming before or recording a variety show, didn't I share the same bed with you? Since we met each other, we can count the number of times we slept separately. You suddenly don't want to sleep with me now? Shen Qingshu, are you not telling me something?
SQS: No.
HC: Then we will sleep together tonight.
SQS: We use two quilts.
HC: ...
HC, approaching and whispering: In a quilt I hold you to sleep, not only do I hold you, but I also have to give you good night kisses, good morning kisses and various kisses.
HC bit the apple he was holding with such look as if it wasn't an apple his was biting, but SQS's flesh and blood.
SQS: ...
SQS stopped arguing and let it go. But when HC asked him to go to the bathroom and he could take him he went by himself. HC thought of that look and though is it a blatant dislike, something happened and the matter is big. He waited for SQS to come out before asking:
HC: You really have nothing to hide from me?
SQS: Of course not.
HC: That's the best.
HC went to take a shower. Coming back and opening the quilt he patted the place beside him.
HC: Come on, baby~
SQS: Is it really impossible to have two quilts?
HC: How can this work? How can I kiss you and hug you with two quilts? We not only want a quilt to sleep, we also have to treat each other sincerely, you have me in you, and you in me.
SQS: !!! I'm not on the road tonight.
HC: Don't worry, if you say you won't, I'll just hug you.
SQS was worried, in case HC wanted to hug and kiss, it wasn't impossible at all, but HC's future boyfriend lived in the same hotel. How can he be in a quilt with him and hug him?
HC: Not coming yet?
SQS felt that he was about to collapse. It is impossible for him to know that BJ is upstairs, and he is unscrupulously is close to HC. This is too much, he can't do it. He looked at HC, no matter how much he didn't want him to be sad, but they will always have this day, and HC will end the relationship with him, not now, but in the future. He worked hard and hopes that HC will like BJ as soon as possible, and then transfer his interest to him, and later talk to himself to dismiss the car-friend relationship, so that he will not feel uncomfortable because this relationship ends. However, he really couldn't wait for that day. He couldn't stay close to HC after BJ appeared. His morality didn't allow him to do so, so in the end, he had to end this relationship.
SQS: I...
SQS looked at HC who had a smile in his eyes, it was too familiar. With a bit of proud look, but holding back a smile, because of making jokes. He would do this every time he wanted to make him laugh, and then smile and hold him after his success, while kissing and coaxing. SQS never hated HC for teasing him, so every time HC was able to succeed. But this time he was destined not to continue to smile and hold him like before.
SQS: Han Cheng, I can't sleep under the same quilt with you. *saying quietly* Let’s dissolve the car-friend relationship, I’m sorry.
Partially I think SQS doesn't realize at this moment that his thoughts of HC meeting BJ somewhere he doesn't know about might not be that HC and BJ are destined, but it has sour taste of subconscious jealousy. I might be wrong, just imo.
Every time I spend several hours intermittenly writing spoilers I hope people still read this.
