After Yu Chen finished his work, he returned to the set, watched Ling Qing film, and waited for him to finish work.
Today was the first day of filming. Zhou Xiaochuan did not give everyone too many announcements. At around nine o’clock, he announced to everyone that they could call it a day and rest.
Everyone left chatting and laughing, and Ling Qing went to the dressing room with Yu Chen to remove his makeup.
Luo Chenghao had been paying attention to him. When he saw Yu Chen appear next to Ling Qing, he asked his agent in confusion: “Who is that?”
“I don’t know. It is said that he is Ling Qing’s friend.” said the agent.
“What a good relationship.” Luo Chenghao said.
The agent laughed and said, “He’s very popular now, so it’s normal for others to stick to him.”
It was normal, but it was also annoying.
Luo Chenghao sneered and went into his dressing room.
As the male lead, Ling Qing had an independent dressing room. He had only brought Xiao Liu in before, and now he brought Yu Chen in. The makeup artists in the dressing room were all excited.
“Have you finished the shoot?” asked Sister Zhang, who was in charge of his makeup.
Ling Qing nodded.
Sister Zhang picked up the makeup remover cotton, poured makeup remover water on it, and helped him wipe his face. “Brother Ling, your skin is really good. It’s finer than our girls’ skin.”
Ling Qing smiled and said, “Your skin is still good. Even if boys have better skin, it can’t be compared with a girl’s skin, otherwise how can Jia Baoyu say that girls are made of water and boys are made of mud.”
Sister Zhang was happy to hear this and smiled, “It still can’t be compared with yours.”
While she was removing Ling Qing’s makeup, Sister Zhang couldn’t help but peek at Yu Chen, and ask curiously, “Is this your new assistant, Brother Ling?”
Ling Qing almost laughed out loud and he looked up at Yu Chen, “What do you think? Xiao Yu?”
Yu Chen said calmly, “Life assistant.”
When Sister Zhang heard that he was really an assistant, she was no longer afraid of saying the wrong thing and praised, “Or maybe you are so handsome, Brother Ling, that even your assistants look like celebrities. Birds of a feather flock together after all.”
“That’s right. At first I thought he was a celebrity too. I was ready to search for what TV shows he had acted in.” said makeup assistant Mary.
“I thought you were a newcomer who came to the crew specifically to visit Brother Ling.” said another makeup assistant, Lisa.
Ling Qing also smiled, “I think he’s pretty good-looking too, but it’s a pity that he doesn’t want to debut.”
Mary sighed and said regretfully, “He’s so handsome but he still hasn’t debuted. It’s illegal to keep a handsome guy privately.”
Lisa asked curiously “Why don’t you debut? It’s so great to be a star.”
Ling Qing raised his eyes to look at Yu Chen, “Why?”
Yu Chen smiled, “Maybe it’s because if I debut, I won’t be able to continue to be a life assistant.”
Makeup Assistant: !!!!
What’s with this familiar dog food smell?
Mother!! I feel sweet now!!
Upon hearing this, Sister Zhang couldn’t help but look at Yu Chen again, thinking that what he said was too ambiguous.
However, she saw that Ling Qing didn’t say much and seemed to be enjoying it. She just thought the direction was strange, but she didn’t say much.
She had been a little moved when she first saw Yu Chen. And when she heard that he was not a star but just an assistant, she even thought about asking Ling Qing for his WeChat number. But now she thought it was better to forget it.
She felt like this WeChat account wasn’t that easy to get.
After removing his makeup, Ling Qing stood up and said to them, “See you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow.” The three girls said in unison.
Ling Qing turned around and walked out with Yu Chen.
The makeup assistant waited until the two of them left before she dared to whisper, “Wow, that guy is so handsome!”
“I didn’t even dare to say anything in front of Brother Ling just now, that guy is even better than the male stars online. He is so handsome!”
“And he has great temperament.”
“I just looked at his clothes. Although I didn’t see the brand, they looked very high-end.”
“I saw his watch. It cost seven figures.” Lisa smacked her lips.
Mary was shocked, “Oh my god, do life assistants make so much money now?”
“But I don’t think he is an ordinary life assistant.”
Sister Zhang smiled, “Life assistant, these four words are very connotative in themselves. Imagine it.”
“Sister Zhang, don’t say that. If you say that, I will think the wrong thing.”
“But that boy really was staring at Brother Ling, and his eyes never left him.”
“Tsk tsk, how come this is a bit sweet?”
Ling Qing did not return to the hotel booked by the crew, but went back with Yu Chen to a hotel Yu Chen had booked nearby. The reason was simple: the crew knew too many people at the hotel.
There were so many people around that it was inevitable that rumors would spread, so it was better to choose a hotel where fewer people knew them.
Of course, this was Ling Qing’s reason.
Yu Chen’s reason was much simpler and more straightforward than his. “The conditions in your hotel are too bad. Let’s change it to a better one for you.”
The director was about to cry and the producer had to remain silent after hearing this.
However, Ling Qing and Yu Chen hit it off immediately, so they secretly got together that night.
“Are you tired?” Yu Chen asked him.
“Not tired. What’s tiring about this?” Ling Qing walked in, sat down on the sofa, picked up the fruit on the coffee table and started eating.
These fruits were just bought by the cook Xiao Liu today, so they were still fresh. Ling Qing ate a cherry himself and fed one to Yu Chen.
“Is it sweet?”
Yu Chen looked at him with a smile, “You are sweeter.”
Ling Qing said, “You are so good at talking.”
“The truth.”
“Chicken love words.”
“Obviously not cheesy.” Yu Chen retorted.
Ling Qing laughed, “Why, do you really admit that you are my assistant?”
“Isn’t it?” Yu Chen put his arm around his shoulders, “Isn’t it a life assistant who is responsible for taking care of your life?”
“Is the life assistant also responsible for accompanying the person?”
“That depends on what kind of person it is.”
Ling Qing laughed, “Xiao Yu, you are becoming more and more interesting.”
“My wife taught me well.”
Ling Qing patted his shoulders, “Keep going.”
“I will.”
The two talked for a while, then Ling Qing planned to take a shower and go to bed. Yu Chen followed him in. Ling Qing reminded him, “You are not allowed to do it today.”
“I know.” Yu Chen laughed, “Am I such a beast?”
“Aren’t you?”
Yu Chen reflected seriously for a moment and was surprised to find that he did seem to be quite beastly sometimes.
“Don’t worry, it won’t happen today. You just started filming your new movie, so I still have some awareness.”
“That’s great.”
Ling Qing took off his clothes. Yu Chen looked at his lower abdomen and reached out to touch it. “Qing Qing, I don’t think there’s any change.”
“Fortunately there’s no change.” Ling Qing was thankful, “Otherwise we wouldn’t be able to shoot this drama.”
Yu Chen smiled, “It seems our baby is quite well behaved and knows how to love his father. So he hid himself.”
“So obedient, just like me.” Ling Qing said shamelessly.
Yu Chen laughed.
Ling Qing looked at the smile on his face, “Am I wrong?”
“Yes.” Yu Chen nodded with a smile, “You are very well behaved.”
“I am really a very well behaved person.”
Ling Qing then turned on the shower, “And he has been in my belly for so long, listening to my voice every day, so he has to be like me.”
Hearing this, Yu Chen reached out and hugged him from behind, one hand covering his abdomen and the other holding his waist, “It’s good to be like you.”
He said, “You have a good personality.”
He kissed Ling Qing and gently felt the warmth of Ling Qing’s abdomen in his palm.
Ling Qing smiled and turned to look at him, “Then look like you and have a personality like me.”
“Yeah.”
“In this way, I only have to coax you.” Ling Qing said with a smile.
Yu Chen was caught off guard and was fed a mouthful of candy by him. He then hugged him and kissed his eyebrows, his eyes full of tenderness.
The two of them were intimate in the bathroom for a while, then they took a shower and returned to the bedroom.
Ling Qing picked up his phone and saw Yun He has sent him a message: [All-Star Friday is about to air. Xiao Liu has posted the promotional Weibo for you. Remember to watch it this Saturday. There will be a live show on Sunday. The magazine shoot might ask some variety show questions.]
Ling Qing replied: [Okay.]
He didn’t know if Su Shu could see it on time. He guessed he could only watch the online version, Ling Qing thought.
“Has Su Yue done anything recently?” he asked Yu Chen.
“I don’t know.” Yu Chen said honestly, “I don’t pay attention to him.”
“If you want to know, I can ask someone to check it out.”
“I don’t want you to get involved.” Ling Qing said.
Yu Chen touched his hair and said, “I’m just checking. I won’t get involved.”
Ling Qing agreed.
He didn’t know what Su Yue’s final ending was in the original book. That was not from the original owner’s perspective, so it was not mentioned in the outline. However, since he had known Su Shu before, it would be better for Su Yue to stay alive.
If he eventually crossed the legal line and broke the law, then the law would punish him, and it was more appropriate for him to accept legal sanctions than to die because of a private vendetta.
At least, that was the best case for Su Shu.
Ling Qing pulled the quilt over him and lay down, “Go to sleep.”
Yu Chen also lay down and hugged him, “Are you worried about Su Shu?”
“Not bad.” Ling Qing said, “Not too bad. Worried, I just thought of it, I hope he can live a better life, he already lacks love, if something happens to Su Yue again, he will lack love even more.”
“Don’t think too much.” Yu Chen said, “You are not suitable to think about these troublesome things now.”
Ling Qing nodded and turned off the light. “I am suitable to think about things after turning off the lights.”
Yu Chen: …
Yu Chen advised him, “Be careful with your words, I don’t have enough self-control.”
Ling Qing laughed instantly, “Then you underestimate yourself, your self-control is still very good.”
He smiled, closed his eyes, and leaned into Yu Chen’s arms.
The next morning, Ling Qing arrived at the set early.
At this time he took the script, sat on a chair, and read the script while drinking yogurt.
Yang Wenwen, who played Mo Tang’s girlfriend Liu Xi, then came over and asked politely, “Brother Ling, can we rehearse our scenes first?”
Ling Qing nodded and asked Xiao Liu to pull a chair for her, “Sit down.”
Yang Wenwen sat down obediently and said to him, “I watched you act yesterday. Brother Ling, you acted really well. Director Zhou kept praising you.”
Ling Qing was rarely humble, “That’s because Director Zhou taught me well.”
“That’s right. You learn well, but I don’t understand so well.” She said, pinching her fingers a little embarrassedly.
Ling Qing looked at her and examined her carefully.
Yang Wenwen looked to be around 20 years old, a little younger than him, with a cute and gentle appearance, and seemed to be more introverted.
She was the only real newcomer in this drama. According to Yun He, she got the role of Liu Xi through an audition.
Zhou Xiaochuan thought she was very talented, and Liu Xi didn’t have many scenes, so he chose her.
