Maybe it was because he was thinking about it all day that he even dreamed about it at night. That night, Zu Qi had a spring dream all night long. He dreamed that he was like a local gangster, pressing Xue Jue on the soft big bed in a flirtatious manner.
“You can scream as much as you want, even if you scream, no one will come to save you.” Zu Qi grabbed Xue Jue’s left and right wrists with both hands, then moved up and pressed them together on the top of Xue Jue’s head.
Xue Jue kept his usual iceberg face, looked at Zu Qi with cold eyebrows, and said, “You should be the one calling for help, right?”
Zu Qi: “???”
Immediately, he felt that the surrounding scene was spinning. Zu Qi quickly reached out and grabbed Xue Jue’s neck to maintain the balance of his body.
When he recovered, he found that he was pressed under Xue Jue, with no room for escape. Zu Qi suddenly panicked: “What are you going to do?!” After staring blankly at the ceiling for a long time, he finally felt a sticky lump under his body.
“F**k.” Zu Qi squeezed out one word from between his teeth.
He was about to turn over and get up, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the mobile phone placed next to the pillow with its screen still on. Inside, Xue Jue had lowered his head and seemed to be looking at something. His face showed a perfect arc, and his thick long eyelashes cast a layer of light shadow on his face.
So lovely.
As a senior face dog, Zu Qi almost became intoxicated again.
At first, when he saw Xue Jue motionless, he thought his cell phone screen was stuck during the video call last night, so he was about to turn off his cell phone.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached over, he saw Xue Jue on the screen suddenly raising his eyes and looking over.
“Are you awake?” Xue Jue said, “It’s only six o’clock in the morning, don’t you want to sleep a little longer?”
Zu Qi was stunned, and it took him a long time to open his mouth: “You just let the video call play like this all night?”
Xue Jue nodded and added: “I just happened to have some unfinished work, so I just left the phone like this. It had no impact.”
“…” Zu Qi took a closer look and realized that Xue Jue’s background seemed to be from the study room.
In fact, during the video call last night, Xue Jue was also sitting in the study, but the careless Zu Qi didn’t notice it.
After staying up all night, no matter how good Xue Jue’s skin was, he couldn’t resist the dark circles appearing under his eyes. His face was full of exhaustion, but he rubbed his eyebrows, and then cheered up and continued working.
For some reason, Zu Qi felt very uncomfortable when he saw this scene, as if there was a lingering depression squeezing in his chest, and it was densely spreading all over his body.
If it were in the past, Zu Qi would naturally not be nosy and concerned about these things, but now, he suddenly wanted to tell Xue Jue as Xue Jue told him last night that staying up late was not good for the body, even for work. A healthy body was the capital of revolution.
But he was afraid that Xue Jue would think too much, so after these words circled on the tip of Zu Qi’s tongue, they finally returned to his stomach quietly.
After a while, Zu Qi was about to get up, and Xue Jue’s work was coming to an end. He picked up his mobile phone and walked out of the study while reminding Zu Qi to remember to take cold medicine three times a day.
Zu Qi who was in a subtle mood, responded repeatedly, and then hung up the phone.
When Zu Qi lifted the quilt and got up, he suddenly felt the stickiness under his body. When he looked down, he saw that the newly put on underwear was indeed wet.
“…” Zu Qi sighed, thinking that it was lucky that he was sleeping alone, otherwise if Xue Jue was lying next to him, he might not know how awkward the atmosphere would be.
After packing up, Xiao Dengzi, who had been contacted in advance, knocked on the door. The two of them went to the hotel restaurant to have breakfast together, and unexpectedly met Qiao Yang and his group.
Qiao Yang was still wearing a thick and long down jacket, using a hat, sunglasses and a mask to cover his facial features. He sat quietly between Zhou Hai and his three assistants, with a large pile of food placed in front of him.
When they first met, Zu Qi thought that Qiao Yang was wearing this outfit to hide from the paparazzi and avoid being recognized by fans and passers-by. Now he thought about it, maybe Qiao Yang didn’t want others to see his skinny appearance.
“Best actor Qiao.” From far away, Xiao Dengzi gently pushed Zu Qi with his elbow and sighed in a low voice, “You can’t tell when he is wearing clothes, but he is so thin.”
Zu Qi pursed his lips, noncommittal.
The two people walked up to Qiao Yang and his group and said hello. Except for Qiao Yang who responded with a smile, everyone else’s attitude was relatively cold.
Zu Qi didn’t care much and found a nearby dining table to sit down.
His appetite was normal, not too much but not too little. However, Xiao Dengzi was a veritable big eater. He brought a table full of food from the buffet area in a few seconds, even more than what was placed in front of Qiao Yang.
Since they were not in a hurry, Zu Qi and Xiao Dengzi both ate very slowly. It took them half an hour to finish the food on the table.
Looking at Qiao Yang’s side, the four people except Qiao Yang had also finished all the food they brought. They seemed to have taken too much, and the expressions on everyone’s faces were a little uncomfortable.
Only Qiao Yang, who was wrapped into a rice dumpling, sat pitifully in the middle. He had no interest in the delicious food. He also tried to force himself to eat it, but it was a pity that he ended up in vain.
After such a breakfast, Qiao Yang became even more envious of Zu Qi and Xiao Dengzi’s good appetite.
So much so that when filming later, he took the initiative to find Zu Qi and pointed out the small mistakes Zu Qi made during the filming process.
Although Qiao Yang had lost weight and his appearance level thus dropped drastically, thanks to the rejuvenation skills of the makeup artist and costume designer, he was able to recover more than half of it. In addition, Qiao Yang’s acting skills were good and he was quick to enter the scene, which made up for his shortcomings in appearance.
They continued shooting like this for a week, but the originally smooth shooting process suddenly went awry.
At noon that day, Director Wang was taking a nap under the rest tent. The assistant came over in a panic and said, “Oh no, Director Wang! Teacher Qiao is acting like a monster!”
Director Wang suddenly sat up and asked blankly, “What kind of monster is he acting like? Really?”
The assistant said: “It’s just a big deal!”
