Chapter 33

       Wen Jianing didn’t show his thoughts on his face.

  Before they finished the meal, Yang Wenchong suddenly burst in from outside. He laughed and greeted Lu Jinlang, “Brother Lu!* You are here!” They didn’t know where he learned the news that Lu Jinlang had come over.

       Then he came over and took Lu Jinlang’s hand. He patted him on the shoulder and said, “Today you also brought my little brother. Just in time! There are some things I want to discuss with you.”

        Wen Jianing felt a little funny. He wanted to say who is your brother? But he still had a smile on his face.

  “What’s the matter?” Lu Jinlang asked calmly, without hurry.

  Yang Wenchong said, “I would like to ask little brother Ke** to help me play a game. If he wins, I will give him 500,000 as a reward.”

  Lu Jinlang asked, “How much do you bet against someone?”

  Yang Wenchong laughed out loud, “It’s hard to say Jinlang, you’d better not ask.”

  Lu Jinlang looked at Wen Jianing, meaning to ask him if he would agree.

  In fact, Wen Jianing was already excited when he heard about the game. He propped his head with one hand and smiled and asked Yang Wenchong, “It’s snooker?”

        Yang Wenchong said, “It’s snooker, baby.”

  Wen Jianing was a little hesitant.

  Lu Jinlang then said, “If we lose, it had nothing to do with us. If we win, you can buy him a car.”

        Yang Wenchong hesitated for a moment, “What car?”

        Lu Jinlang then said, “He will pick the ones within one million.”

  Yang Wenchong thought for a moment and said, “Okay! No problem! The premise is to win!” But then he said to Lu Jinlang, “You are the boyfriend, but can not afford to buy a car for someone, and still come to blackmail me?”

        Lu Jinlang said frankly, “We talk about feelings, not money.”

  Wen Jianing smiled slightly when he said that.

  Yang Wenchong pointed to Wen Jianing and said, “Look at your guilty face, not promising!”

  Wen Jianing did not refute.

        After Yang Wenchong signed the bill for them, he hurried them to the billiard room now. When they arrived, Wen Jianing found that there were many people inside. He knew some, but he was not familiar with all of them.

  One of the big names that were present was a young master surnamed Li. His name was Li Rong. Like Yang Wenchong, he was famous for playing around. In addition, there was a tall and handsome young man named Yan Ruowei, who had acted in several plays, TV dramas and movies, and was a little famous, but was not a big hit. Others were mostly small stars, and Wen Jianing couldn’t even name them.

       However, Wen Jianing had been very popular on the internet recently. As soon as he came in, many people recognized him, but everyone’s attention was still on Lu Jinlang.

       Especially Yan Ruowei, his eyes suddenly changed when Lu Jinlang entered. He never looked away from Lu Jinlang.

        Lu Jinlang greeted Li Rong first.

  Li Rong said with a smile, “I had a meal with your second brother the day before yesterday.”

  Lu Jinlang smiled and said, “Is he okay? I haven’t seen him for a long time.”

  Li Rong said, “Pretty good, he seems to be living quite well.”

        Li Rong was a little different from Yang Wenchong. Yang Wenchong had money in his family but he had nothing to do in the family. However, Li Rong was also a ruthless character and did a lot of business outside, besides just playing around.

  After he spoke, Li Rong turned his head to look at Yan Ruowei, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pat his back firmly, and said, “If you want to say hello, just say it. Look, your eyes are about to fall out.”

  Yan Ruowei seemed a little embarrassed and looked away.

  Lu Jinlang took the initiative to greet him, “It’s been a long time since I saw you, Ruowei. How are you doing?”

  Yan Ruowei said softly, “Pretty good.” After speaking, he glanced at Wen Jianing again.

  Li Rong was also looking at Wen Jianing. He usually managed a lot of things, but he didn’t know who Wen Jianing was. He just thought Wen Jianing was a starlet brought by Lu Jinlang.

        A model next to him said, “This is Ke Xinhang, right? Young Master Yang taste is quite good.”

  She thought Ke Xinhang was brought by Yang Wenchong, so she joked with him casually.

  Yang Wenchong, who was asking for help from Wen Jianing quickly said, “Don’t talk nonsense, this is a friend of the great Film Emperor Lu.”

  Of course, the model didn’t dare to make a joke with Lu Jinlang. She was a little surprised, and glanced at several people around her, and then looked curiously at Wen Jianing.

  Yan Ruowei’s face instantly became sour.

        Wen Jianing watched all this silently, if he still couldn’t see what Yan Ruowei had with Lu Jinlang, then he had been living in vain for more than 30 years. At least Yan Ruowei’s interest in Lu Jinlang was one sidedly.

       Lu Jinlang was very calm, said a few words with Li Rong, and then said that he was just an audience. He waited for Yang Wenchong to come out to express his opinion.

  Yang Wenchong smiled and said to Li Rong, “It’s as agreed that we will do one game to determine the outcome and it’s okay for me to be substituted with my brother.”

  Li Rong asked him, “Where is your brother?”

  Yang Wenchong stretched out his hand and pulled Wen Jianing, “He’s here!”

  Li Rong sat on the high stool and snorted, “You just said this is Jinlang’s friend, how come he has become your brother now?”

  Yang Wenchong said with a sullen expression, “Why can’t Jinlang’s friend be my brother? If you can’t afford to lose, just say it. Why the sudden change of mind?”

  Yan Ruowei kept enduring it until he couldn’t hold back anymore, and said, “Young Master Yang, why do you find someone like this to play billiards with Boss Li? It’s more interesting to let him dance on the platform.”

        Lu Jinlang frowned slightly and looked at Yan Ruowei.

  Yan Ruowei lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

  Several starlets in the room gathered in one place whispering.

  Li Rong smiled and said to Yang Wenchong, “How are you so confident that he can beat me?”

  Yang Wenchong glanced at Wen Jianing and nodded vigorously, “Dare to gamble on this one?”

       Li Rong stood up, took off his jacket and asked Yan Ruowei to hold it for him, then slowly rolled up his shirt buttons, and said to Wen Jianing, “It is not fair to decide the outcome in one round, let’s do three rounds. But I have to make sure about one thing. Are you here to help Yang Wenchong win the bet?”

  Wen Jianing said, “Yes.”

  Li Rong smiled, “Well, if you win, I will surrender. But if I win, I want to change the conditions. Today you let me sleep with you.”

  Wen Jianing was a little bit dumbfounded for an instant.

  Lu Jinlang said calmly, “Boss Li, it’s too much. I said he was my friend.”

  Li Rong was not afraid of Lu Jinlang. He said, “Who told you to let your friend help Yang Wenchong? He either accepts the terms of the bet or withdraws himself from the hustle.”

       Before Lu Jinlang spoke, Wen Jianing first opened his mouth and said to Li Rong, “Boss Li, does it mean this is a gamble between us?”

  “Uh-huh,” Li Rong looked at him and waited for him to continue.

  Wen Jianing said, “In that case, I also want to change the conditions. The bet between you and Young Master Yang remains the same. On top of that, I’ll add another one. If you win, I’ll let you sleep with me, and if I win, you’ll let me sleep with you.***”

  The entire billiard room fell silent for an instant, leaving only the soft music on the stereo.

  Yang Wenchong wiped away his cold sweat and stretched out his hand to pull Wen Jianing.

        Li Rong half-squinted his eyes. It was unclear whether he was angry or not.

  At this time it was Lu Jinlang who came out to round things up, he put one arm around Wen Jianing’s shoulders and asked, “Do you want to sleep with Boss Li?”

       Wen Jianing turned his head. Of course, he didn’t want to sleep with Li Rong. Even if Li Rong agreed and really lost to him, he wouldn’t sleep with Li Rong unless he was crazy.

  He just wanted to distress Li Rong. What he was waiting for was that Lu Jinlang would not stand idly by. He said to Lu Jinlang, “What do you say? Let’s have a 3P tonight?”

       Lu Jinlang squeezed Wen Jianing’s arm with his fingers. He didn’t smile. He didn’t want to offend Li Rong, but Yang Wenchong, who was next to him, heard Wen Jianing say 3P, imagined the scene, and immediately buried his head and kicked the floor with his own leather shoes.

  Lu Jinlang said to Li Rong, “Boss Li, how about this, I will also participate in the bet. If you win, I’ll pay the bet together with Yang Wenchong; if you lose, you only need to pay the original share promised to Yang Wenchong, how about that?”

  Li Rong put his arms on his chest, looked at Wen Jianing and smiled.

  Lu Jinlang asked Wen Jianing, “Do you still want to have a 3P?”

  Wen Jianing said hurriedly this time, “I wouldn’t dare. I’m talking nonsense, don’t be angry, Boss Li.”

  The people in this room really didn’t know whether Li Rong was angry or not, but Lu Jinlang already made a clear statement. Li Rong would not offend Lu Jinlang for such a trivial matter. He nodded, compromising and agreeing to Lu Jinlang’s request.

  Just as the game was about to begin, Guan Xiaotian suddenly pushed open the door from outside.

  Looking at the people in this room, Guan Xiaotian was a little stunned, but he quickly reacted and greeted the people here with a smile.

  Guan Xiaotian and Wen Jianing were in the same social circle, and they were not familiar with people in the circle of Lu Jinlang and Li Rong, but since they were in the entertainment circle, they could still act superficially.

  Yang Wenchong invited Guan Xiaotian to stay to watch the game, and Guan Xiaotian did not refuse to stay.

  Wen Jianing didn’t have time to care about Guan Xiaotian at this time. He was a little nervous because he was sure to win against Yang Wenchong before because he had seen Yang Wenchong play, but he never had the opportunity to watch Li Rong play. And since Yang Wenchong came to him, Li Rong’s strength must not be under Yang Wenchong.

  What he said just now was a joke, but if Li Rong really agreed to his terms, maybe he wouldn’t dare to bet. Who knew if he or Li Rong would win. Even if he really won, Li Rong would not care to lie down and let him do him, and he might have no choice.

  Wen Jianing habitually rubs the club repeatedly with his thumb, which was a subconscious action when he was serious.

  No one else thought it was strange, but Guan Xiaotian, who was watching the game nearby, began to subconsciously observe him after noticing the movement of his hand.

  At this time, Yang Wenchong walked behind Wen Jianing and reached out to help Wen Jianing rub his shoulder, and whispered, “Don’t be afraid of him, I know Li Rong’s strength, and he’s not your opponent.”

  Wen Jianing did not speak.

  Yang Wenchong lowered his voice and said, “It’s all up to you, baby.”

  Wen Jianing finally glanced at him and said, “Don’t take advantage.”

        Yang Wenchong just took advantage with his words. After seeing him for so long, Lu Jinlang still took Wen Jianing with him and attached great importance to him. So he was simply just imagining other thoughts but didn’t intend to practice them. Of course, if one day Lu Jinlang has had enough, he could consider it. However, looking at Wen Jianing’s current momentum, he felt that even when Lu Jinlang had enough, the other party was probably not someone he could afford to play with either.

  The first game was a coin toss to set the opening ball, and Li Rong won to take the lead.

  He started very smoothly, with a series of red balls and a colourful ball falling into the pocket easily.

  Wen Jianing was originally standing next to the table, but then he retreated to stand beside Lu Jinlang.

       There was an orange light shining on his head. Wen Jianing’s face looked white and transparent under the light, and his cheeks were slightly red.

        Lu Jinlang was so excited that he put his arm around his waist and pressed his lips on Wen Jianing’s cheek.

  Wen Jianing stood still and just asked, “Do you think it is appropriate to do this kind of thing here?”

  Lu Jinlang whispered in his ear, “I just get a little excited thinking of you in bed like this.”

  Wen Jianing glanced at him.

  Lu Jinlang smiled.

  Guan Xiaotian, who was standing opposite the table, frowned uncomfortably when he saw the intimacy between them.

       Li Rong’s smooth start made Yang Wenchong’s palm sweat. Wen Jianing raised his hand and gently pressed his lower lip with his thumb. Only Lu Jinlang’s attention was put half on Wen Jianing. For example, he wanted to replace Wen Jianing’s fingers with his own.

       Yan Ruowei held his arms in front of his chest. Obviously, he was looking at Li Rong, but he kept looking in the direction of Lu Jinlang and the others, his face was cold and expressionless.

  A young model came to Guan Xiaotian to talk to him. Guan Xiaotian responded politely. At the same time, he was thinking about the starlet called Ke Xinhang. Ke Xinhang had many habitual actions that would be very similar to Wen Jianing.

       The music in the billiard room had stopped. Everyone didn’t dare to interrupt Li Rong’s play. They lower their voice when they want to talk, and the loudest sound in the whole room was the sound of two balls colliding on the table.

  A single tap made Yang Wenchong’s nerves tense.

  Thanks to the mistake made by Li Rong, it was finally Wen Jianing’s turn to hit the ball.

  But at this time, the position of the ball was not very good. Wen Jianing watched carefully by the side of the stage for a long time and aimed at the black ball with the highest score.

       The black ball’s position was not particularly good. If he couldn’t score with this ball, it would more or less be discouraging, to be honest.

  Guan Xiaotian looked at his movements and felt an unspeakable familiarity. He used to play with Wen Jianing and knew better than anyone else about Wen Jianing’s small habits.

  At this time, Wen Jianing, who had chosen a position, turned his head and glanced at Lu Jinlang. He didn’t know why he did this unnecessary action, as if he was subconsciously seeking support from the other party.

  Lu Jinlang walked to Wen Jianing, put his hand on the ambiguous position between his lower back and buttocks, and said, “I said it’s on me if you lose, so what are you afraid of.”

  Wen Jianing nodded.

  Guan Xiaotian was in a daze for a moment. He felt that he was obsessed, and even felt that this boy was a little like Wen Jianing. When he saw him standing next to people like Lu Jinlang and Li Rong, he was clearly a fat and juicy piece of fresh meat from the entertainment industry, provoking the group of men around, and was not ashamed of being touched and kissed by others.

  Guan Xiaotian shook his head and lit himself a cigarette.

Chapter 32

       Wen Jianing had not done a TV series for many years. When he first made his debut in his last life, he ran around as a minor character in a lot of TV series. After turning to the big screen, he never went back to film a TV series.

  The shooting pace of TV series was much faster and less elaborated than in movies, plus with the requirements of today’s domestic market, most of them were shot in a hurry and lacking in quality.

  ‘The Strange Fate of Hairpin and Phoenix’ could be regarded as a large-scale production with a relatively large investment. As a producer, Lei Xing wanted to use the TV series to promote Wen Lin and Ke Xinhang. Naturally, they had spent a lot of money and put forward the requirement of quality and speed to coexist.

  A simple opening ceremony was held the day after Wen Jianing’s arrival, and then they officially went into shooting.

  Wen Jianing’s first scene was an emotional scene with the heroine Ling Zhener played by Yuan Qian and Xiao Zongyi played by Wen Lin.

  Yuan Qian became popular a few years ago because of a Chinese historical movie*. Her acting skills were very mediocre, but she was beautiful, that was why she was very popular with the audience and was very popular on the internet.

  This scene was about Xiao Zongyan bringing a cricket into the palace to show it to Xiao Zongyi but accidentally hearing a maid and a eunuch talking about Xiao Zongyi staying in Ling Zhener’s palace last night. Xiao Zongyan endured the heartache and went to the Imperial Study Room to find Xiao Zongyi. He smiled and told him about crickets, and it happened that Ling Zhener was also there. The two were right next to Xiao Zongyi, secretly glancing at each other.

  Xiao Zongyan, played by Wen Jianing, had the look of a flirtatious prince, always with a carefree look

  Xiao Zongyan put the cricket cage on the table, and when Xiao Zongyi, played by Wen Lin looked down, Xiao Zongyan looked up at Ling Zhener across the table. The moment the two eyes met, Yuan Qian saw the other party’s smile instantly shrink, his eyes seemed to be bitter and hateful, and his emotions almost overflowed.

       Yuan Qian didn’t enter the play so quickly. At this time, when she looked at Wen Jianing, she was taken aback for a moment, and forgot to say the lines she had prepared.

  The director called to stop and asked to start again, but he paid more attention to Wen Jianing.

  When it was time to start over, Yuan Qian found the state, but from her perspective, she could clearly see Wen Jianing’s expression change freely. When talking with Wen Lin, he had a silly smile, and as long as it was with her, he spoke with a bit of pain in his smile.

  At the end of the scene, during the break, the director watched the shots of Wen Jianing, especially the close-ups of his face several times, and asked the assistant director next to him, “What do you think?”

  The assistant director looked at it carefully and said, “Not bad.” But after watching it for a while, he sighed, “It’s just that he looks so handsome that it’s easy to be distracted from his acting skills.”

        Compared to Wen Jianing, Wen Lin, who was filming for the first time, was much more nervous.

  The first scene was mainly the interaction between Wen Jianing and Yuan Qian. Fortunately, in the second scene between Wen Lin and Yuan Qian, NG was always inevitable.

  During the break, Wen Jianing told him to not be nervous, and to not worry too much with some details. Acting was always a process of progressing and he didn’t have to force himself too hard.

       Afterwards, the filming went a little smoother, although Wen Lin’s acting skills were still very green. Wen Jianing actually felt that for someone like Wen Lin who had never acted in a drama before, it was better to start with the minor role and supporting roles. It was inevitable that he was feeling nervous about such an important role.

       However, Lei Xing as an entertainment company, of course, would not let Wen Lin to slowly settle down and accumulate experience. They wanted to use the afterglow of the Voice of the Soul to promote both Wen Lin and Wen Jianing.

       After the first day of shooting, when they returned to the hotel, Wen Jianing asked Wen Lin if he wanted to have a snack. Wen Lin was too tired to move. He said, “I’m going to bed.”

  Wen Jianing couldn’t help but laugh a little and patted him on the shoulder, “Go get some sleep.”

  He and Wen Tinghuan were left to eat seafood noodles at an outside noodle shop, but when Wen Jianing ordered, Wen Tinghuan didn’t order anything.

  “You are not going to eat?” Wen Jianing asked.

        Wen Tinghuan looked at him with her hands on her face. “You’re still eating noodles so late. Aren’t you afraid of getting fat?”

  Wen Jianing smiled upon hearing this, and said, “It won’t be that easy to gain weight.”

  This was not to make Wen Tinghuan annoyed, but it was the truth. On the contrary, the 34 years old Wen Jianing, would not dare to eat like this. He still needs to spend a lot of effort to maintain his figure. But as a 20 year old Ke Xinhang, things were really different. He often had to warn himself to eat more, otherwise, he would lose a few pounds if he were a little tired.

       As a man, he was too thin, and in fact, he didn’t look good. He liked Lu Jinlang’s hanger shelf figure, with wide shoulders and narrow waist. He looked good in everything.

  Wen Tinghuan sighed, “You just make me angry.”

  Wen Jianing smiled and asked her, “Are you really not eating?”

  Wen Tinghuan shook her head. She said, “Today, the assistant director told me that you are good at acting. Have you learned acting before?”

  Wen Jianing said, “No, I learned it by myself.”

       Wen Tinghuan took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. She said, “Xinhang, no matter if you are born with good acting skills or you become good because you learned it, I think what the assistant director said today is right. You should think more about it in the future. This kind of idol drama makes it easy for people to ignore your acting skills. After I go back, I will discuss with it Zheng laoshi** and carefully plan your future development path.”

  Wen Jianing said with a smile, “Thank you, Ting jie.”

  Wen Tinghuan said, “What are the thanks for? This is part of my job. Now you go eat quickly and go back to sleep after eating.”

       The shooting of the TV series ‘The Strange Fate of Hairpin and Phoenix’ went well. Although Wen Lin’s acting skills were still green and Miss Yuan Qian’s acting skills were also mediocre, it was enough for a youth idol drama. At least the whole scenes were pleasing to the eye.

  The creative staff understand the psychology of today’s young audiences very well. The clothes do not necessarily have to conform to historical characteristics, but they must be beautiful, such as Yuan Qian’s fluffy muffler and cloak, Wen Jianing’s chic and elegant white tunic, and clean and meticulous actors’ makeups. The background tones of the TV series were bright and beautiful. The plot was also fast-paced, relaxed and cheerful in the early stage, and with fierce melodramatic scenes in the later stage.

       The official Weibo of the TV series releases some live photos and shooting highlights from time to time, and there were a lot of reposts on the internet. The readers of the original novel were originally young women and both Wen Lin and Wen Jianing satisfied most of the readers in terms of appearance and style. Gradually, they were not so concerned about whether the production followed the original plot. Some girls’ attention also had shifted from the TV series to the actors themselves.

  A girl went to visit the set, took a video with her mobile phone and posted it on the internet.

  In the video, Wen Jianing was helping Wen Lin sort out the jade pendant hanging on his belt. He half squatted beside Wen Lin and raised his head to talk to Wen Lin while sorting it out. The video appeared ambiguous and the sound couldn’t be heard clearly. But after Wen Lin lowered his head to respond to him, the two looked at each other and smiled.

       Later, this video also became a hot topic of the day, which aroused an enthusiastic response from many people.

       The official Weibo also discovered the influence this topic brings, so from time to time, several photos of Wen Lin and Wen Jianing together were posted, and another day a behind-the-scenes video was also posted. The video was filming Xiao Zongyi and Xiao Zongyan was having a confrontation in front of Ling Zhener. It was the scene of Xiao Zongyi grabbing Xiao Zongyan’s lapel and berating him loudly. However, because Yuan Qian who was standing behind said the wrong line it resulted in NG. Wen Lin suddenly laughed and let go of Wen Jianing and stretched out his arms to hug him.

        Various topics of this TV series are boiling on the internet.

  Wen Tinghuan said to Wen Jianing, “Just wait for it to be popular.”

  Wen Jianing didn’t say anything.

  Wen Tinghuan said again, “Let me ask you, do you want to take advantage of the buzz to make more TV series next, or slow down your steps and move in the direction of acting in a movie?”

       Wen Jianing said to her, “I told you before, I want to stand higher than Lu Jinlang.”

  Wen Ting smiled, “Okay, I get it.”

  The TV series took four months to shoot, and midway through the shooting, the news of ‘October Fireworks’ came, and only then did Wen Jianing remember that he hadn’t seen Lu Jinlang for a long time.

       Lu Jinlang called Wen Jianing. That night Wen Jianing was rushing to the filming, and the phone was in Wen Tinghuan’s hands. Wen Tinghuan saw that it was Lu Jinlang who was calling and didn’t answer it for him. She just returned a text message and said that Wen Jianing was going to shoot.

  It was late at night when work ended, and Wen Jianing did not call Lu Jinlang back.

  When he called Lu Jinlang the next day, Lu Jinlang said to him that he was out on vacation and that he would see him again when Wen Jianing’s scene finished.

  “Okay, have a nice trip,” Wen Jianing said to him.

       Wen Jianing ended his part of the play earlier than Wen Lin. When he returned to the airport by plane, he found that there were fans to pick him up. For his fans, Wen Jianing had always been gentle. He would try his best to satisfy everyone’s requirements for taking photos and autographs because he still remembered those young girls crying sadly at his funeral.

       However, it was obviously impossible to do that at the airport. When he saw so many people gathered at the airport, security personnel were dispatched to escort Wen Jianing out, and he was not allowed to stay at the airport for too long.

  When he got in the car sent by the company to pick them up, Wen Ting smiled and asked him, “How do you feel?”

  Wen Jianing said, “I am a little touched and a little happy.” This is the truth. Although he had enjoyed such treatment in the past, he once again felt surrounded by enthusiasm after such a long time, so he couldn’t help feeling a little more moved.

  The driver kept driving him back home.

  Wen Tinghuan said to him, “Take a few days off, and you don’t have to go back to the company right away. When Wen Lin comes back, you have to record the theme song. Wait for my call.”

  Wen Jianing said goodbye to her.

        Back home, Wen Jianing emptied his head and thought about nothing. He intended to make up for two days of sleep. But when he has just fallen asleep, he received a call from Lu Jinlang.

  Lu Jinlang said as if joking, “You didn’t even tell me you were back?”

  Wen Jianing asked, “Are you back?”

  Lu Jinlang told him, “I heard that your filming is over, I can’t wait to come back.”

  Wen Jianing smiled lightly.

  Lu Jinlang asked him, “What are your plans for the next two days?”

  Wen Jianing thought for a moment, “Nothing is planned yet.”

  Lu Jinlang said, “Then let’s go out and find a comfortable place to stay.”

  The comfortable place Lu Jinlang said referred to Lanlu. Lanlu had a small courtyard for guests to stay, a wooden building guest rooms in front of a small courtyard with a single door. The room inside was a very luxurious, comfortable, and modern suite.

  Lu Yunan drove Wen Jianing to Lanlu. The first thing Wen Jianing did after arriving was sleeping. He slept on the soft big bed in the guest room until the next morning. When he woke up, he saw Lu Jinlang sitting under the window, reading a newspaper on a single sofa.

        When Lu Jinlang saw him waking up, he asked him, “Did you get enough sleep?”

  Wen Jianing nodded, “I’m so hungry.”

  Breakfast was delivered to the guest room, Wen Jianing ate a small bowl of beef noodles, topped with cake, fried eggs and coffee.

  After he ate, he walked into the yard in his pyjamas and stretched out, taking a deep breath of the fresh mountain air.

  Lu Jinlang came over and hugged him from behind, and said, “Do you miss me?”

  Wen Jianing grabbed his hand and said, “Now I’m thinking.”

  If he wanted to describe it more precisely, Wen Jianing felt that his body was starting to miss Lu Jinlang. It was strange that for so many years as Wen Jianing, he had always felt that these things were nothing more than a kind of outlet and had never tried to crave so much.

       It was probably because he had not experienced the kind of pleasure that makes his whole body tremble. He felt that he had reached the top, but the person in control of his body was telling him by his actions that it was not enough, and he had to continue to make him comfortable to the point that it was almost painful. Or maybe he was actually physically gay, but he didn’t know it for many years.

       It certainly was inappropriate and a waste of time to do this kind of thing in bed in the morning, but Wen Jianing felt it was a little difficult to control himself. He felt Lu Jinlang put his hand over his mouth and said in his ear, “Shh—” but his eyes were moist and shook his head. He felt that his mind had been controlled by his body. He couldn’t think about what kind of response to make.

       After all, they had been separated for four months.

       When it was over, Lu Jinlang stood by the bed and dressed. Wen Jianing saw a scratch on Lu Jinlang’s shoulder, which he had just left. Although his nails are not long, he must’ve scratched them very hard.

  Lu Jinlang noticed that he was watching. He sat down close to let him see and said, “You are very fierce today.”

  Wen Jianing sat up and kissed lightly on his shoulder.

        Lu Jinlang looked at him intently, then leaned in and kissed his lips.

  They didn’t walk out of this small yard until dinner. Lu Jinlang said that he would go to eat sushi with him, but Wen Jianing felt a little weak in his legs. He really didn’t want to admit that his 20-year-old body was not as good as the 30-year-old Lu Jinlang. It was a pity that Ke Xinhang’s body was relatively weak. He began to think about spending an hour out for a run every day.

  Lu Jinlang originally walked a bit ahead of him, then stopped and stretched out his hand to him, held his hand and walked together.

  Instead of small private rooms, this sushi house had rotating sushi.

  When they went in, they saw a friend inside. In fact, it should be said that it was Wen Jianing’s former friend, not Lu Jinlang’s.

       That person was Guan Xiaotian. He was also a well-known actor. He made his debut at about the same time as Wen Jianing, and the two people have always had a deep friendship. But the last time he saw Guan Xiaotian, it was at Wen Jianing’s own funeral, and a year has almost passed in the blink of an eye.

       Guan Xiaotian was accompanied by a twenty-seven or eight-year-old woman. She was not very beautiful, but she looked gentle and quiet. It was his girlfriend named Le Shu. He heard that Le Shu had a good family background. She also graduated with a master’s degree, and her education was much higher than Guan Xiaotian. Guan Xiaotian told Wen Jianing in the past that he was serious about Le Shu and that the two were going to get married. Now it had been another year, but he didn’t know if he had pulled the marriage certificate.

        When Guan Xiaotian saw Lu Jinlang and him coming in, he took the initiative to say hello to Lu Jinlang, the kind that was very polite. Guan Xiaotian was not familiar with Lu Jinlang, and Wen Jianing knew it well.

  Lu Jinlang sat down with Wen Jianing, and Lu Jinlang personally helped him pour soy sauce on the plate.

  Le Shu couldn’t help raising her head to look at them, then turned her gaze away.

        In Lanlu, if you didn’t want to be seen, you could stay in the private room and enjoy private space all the way. Most people who came here wouldn’t do so, because those who came here knew the rules, otherwise, they wouldn’t be qualified to come again in the future.

  The sushi house was very quiet, with only very soft music. Lu Jinlang were helping Wen Jianing to get some sushi and told him which one he thought was delicious.

  Guan Xiaotian and Le Shu were talking in low voices, and after a while, their voices became a little louder, as if they were quarrelling.

  Wen Jianing raised his head and looked at them.

       Guan Xiaotian suddenly put the small plate in front of him on the table. When Le Shu saw this, she got up, picked up her bag and went out. Guan Xiaotian didn’t chase her either, and sat alone gloomily.

  Wen Jianing wanted to go over and persuade him just like how it is in the past, but he would not do such a foolish thing in front of Lu Jinlang.

  Lu Jinlang watched him getting distracted while taking a piece of sushi with his chopsticks, so he asked, “It’s not delicious?”

  Wen Jianing shook his head, “It’s delicious,” he smoothly picked up the sushi and fed it into Lu Jinlang’s mouth.

       Guan Xiaotian suddenly stood up, signed the bill and went out. He never looked at Wen Jianing from beginning to end.

       Wen Jianing suddenly remembered that Guan Xiaotian had said in the past that he hated that kind of person who looked neither male nor female, and Wen Jianing suddenly realized that this was probably how Guan Xiaotian saw him now. Wen Jianing felt a little uncomfortable, not because of his relationship with Lu Jinlang, but because he knew that his body was really the type that Guan Xiaotian had described.

Chapter 4 – Fulfillment requires cooperation

The clone of a lover who eventually became a real lover
Fulfilment requires cooperation

There’s no shame in admitting that Tan Yunxiao feels strongly jealous of Feng Sheng’s original lover.

After the two confided in each other and shared their hearts, Feng Sheng only smiled and watched as Tan Yunxiao removed the photo of the two from the bedroom and replaced it with the photo of them when they went to the amusement park last weekend. He calmly allowed Tan Yunxiao to redecorate the house, slowly but surely in an attempt to completely obliterate any traces of the original Tan Yunxiao’s life.

This was quite amusing. It was obvious that the two had the same memories and shared similar hobbies, but Tan Yunxiao stubbornly chooses to wear colors that he has no liking towards, eat foods that he didn’t like and does things he didn’t like to do before. Over time, he really did begin to like to wear different colors, and was more willing to eat foods he was originally unwilling to, as well as became less ashamed to try different positions in bed. Before, when they made love, they only had a few basic positions, but now there were too many for them to try – to the point that it’s ridiculous.

Tan Yunxiao also became more pampered as Feng Sheng indulged him gently, which changed greatly from his originally gentle and considerate temperament. Sometimes after a long night, Tan Yunxiao even stayed in bed until it was time to get up for work instead of spending time preparing breakfast.

Other times, Tan Yunxiao would whisper to the mirror when he was alone: The appearance he had right now, was it really his ‘real appearance’? When he thought about what his ‘real appearance’ might look like, he would always be reminded of the original Tan Yunxiao which would make him feel like throwing up. No, he mustn’t give his lover to someone else, even if that person is technically himself.

Sometimes, Tan Yunxiao has the smugness to think: Doesn’t Feng Sheng also like him as he is now, despite him already being different from the Yunxiao before? He was originally made by Feng Sheng and every bit of his body was made according to the other’s tastes. Even if he was different from his old lover, it was Feng Sheng’s own mind that has really been changed.

Perhaps what Feng Sheng really saw in him was his heart. Thinking of this, Tan Yunxiao couldn’t help but smile giddily at himself in the mirror. If he could’ve met Feng Sheng earlier, perhaps there was even a chance that he would choose him over his lover in the end!

Sometimes Tan Yunxiao feels sad, what does he need to do to be able to overtake a dead person in someone’s heart? Should he utilize his similar-looking face, or should he be more s/utty in bed?

Tan Yunxiao has spent many late nights awoken from his dreams. Stroking his sleeping lover’s cheek in the darkness, he recalled the events that have transpired over and over again.

After finding out about his true identity and Feng Sheng’s strong feelings towards his deceased lover, Tan Yunxiao was sad at first, thinking that he was just some substitute, before rejoicing because he was the one who got to enjoy the handsome and affectionate lover, and then feeling jealous again. The one who really owns his lover is some guy who had already died for a long time, and perhaps he was just a clown wearing the skin of his lover’s ex.

But after all the propositions have been said, Tan Yunxiao feels at ease again. Maybe Feng Sheng can’t refuse him because he had the same face as his lover, maybe this was just some fake affection being shown to him in exchange for experiencing a fabricated love. But it did not matter.

Everyone had to learn to see the good in the bad, and at least all his lover’s sweet words, caresses and kisses are now his own exclusive properties. No matter what his lover makes of this new love, he can no longer get away.

His deep affections have already weakened him, and he was deathly afraid of loss so the pair will stay together until their hair turns white, or even be joined in death.

This was enough. Tan Yunxiao was not that naïve to believe in Feng Sheng’s promise of this love they shared now. Who cares if this love is incomplete or lacking? He is already satisfied. A tear escaped from the corner of Tan Yunxiao’s eyes.

He quickly hid his face in his collar, when he reopened his eyes, he was still the same Tan Yunxiao who had loved Feng Sheng wholeheartedly. Tidying his mind, he sank himself deeper into Feng Sheng’s arms.

“Xiao Xiao…” Hearing his lover calling out his name in his dream caused Tan Yunxiao’s heart to beat warmly. Choosing to put away the jealousy and anger behind him before falling asleep peacefully.

Tomorrow will be a new day.

Under the cover of darkness, someone’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

(end)

 


T/L notes: Eheh, there wasn’t much smut in this short story but I hope you still enjoyed it nonetheless. I enjoyed translating this quite a bit as there was just so much potential for the story. Even if it was simple, I hope it brought you some joy or gave you a bit to think about.

Life is short, and we should grasp the present moment with our own hands like Yunxiao did. There’s more I could say, but I’m sleepy so I’ll go rest now. Thank you for coming on this short journey with me (OAO)/

Chapter 3 – Turn around, your true love is waiting

The clone of a lover who eventually became a real lover
Turn around, your true love is waiting

Feng Sheng has already left while Tan Yunxiao worked a rotational shift today. He unhooks the buttons in front of the large mirror in the bathroom, revealing his smooth chest and shoulders. Sneering at the sight, he tossed his shirt aside.

Carefully, he used a small blade to make an incision on the skin near the collarbone, which caused blood to spill from the wound profusely. He had injected himself with a stimulant earlier to keep himself from fainting, and carefully peeled off the skin, looking for bone.

“Ah, found it.” He sighed softly.

There was a code engraved on the bone, casting a soft blue glow.

“Ah.” He sighed again.

Slumping weakly to the floor, he was immediately attended to by a medical robot. His last hope had been dashed.

When evening came, Feng Sheng returned home with a handful of daffodils that he had just purchased on the street. As soon as he entered, he was greeted to the sight of his lover huddled over on the sofa and flustered.

Before he could change his clothes, Feng Sheng hurriedly stepped forward, half-kneeled on the ground as he put his arms around his lover’s shoulders and quietly soothed him, only for his lover to raise his tear-stained face at him.

“What’s the matter, dear?” Feng Sheng wiped away his lover’s tears, in distress.

“Do you love Tan Yunxiao?” His lover asked in a whisper.

“Of course.”

“Do you love me?”

“… What do you mean? What are you talking about? Honey, aren’t you Tan Yunxiao?” There was a warm smile on Feng Sheng’s face.

It was a pity that his smile quickly turned cold and was abruptly shattered, after Feng Sheng saw that Tan Yunxiao was smiling to himself and unresponsive.

His heart skipped a beat as he called the medical robot. After checking the treatment records, his heart sank.

Feng Sheng was still half-kneeling on the carpet next to the sofa. He shifted himself and sat on the ground. Taking out a cigarette from the inner pocket of his coat, he took a shaky drag of nicotine on the spot as smoke filled out the space between the two of them, covering their respective expressions.

Ah… just when did Feng Sheng learn to smoke…?

“So you already found out that you aren’t really him.” Feng Sheng spoke suddenly, his tone was still soft.

“That… I… I already know.” Tan Yunxiao sniffed again.

There was another long silence.

“So what now? Do you wish to leave me? Feng Sheng had said bitterly while smoking a cigarette, his cool demeanor long gone.

“I… I…”

“Do you blame me? I implanted his memory inside you, tricked you into thinking you were him and lied about us. Your AI level is high so you should choose your own life, instead of being held down by a coward like me who prefers to play pretend.”

Feng Sheng was interrupted by Tan Yunxiao who kissed him on the lips fiercely. The taste of smoke in the man’s mouth was off-putting but Tan Yunxiao didn’t care, in fact, he was even more excited for it, biting Feng Sheng’s lips but stopping just short of tearing flesh.

After the kiss ended, both of them were breathless.

“I still want to be your lover, even if the memory from before was implanted, we can still make fresh new ones after. I am not angry at all that you tricked me, because I already liked you from the first time I saw you. Even without his memories, I still like you.”

The two hugged each other tightly, with a new sort of spark igniting between them as they renewed their love for one another.

Coming close to losing something was bound to make anyone insane, and for Feng Sheng, who has a habit of toughing-it-out and holding everything inside wouldn’t be able to avert it, this insanity. He has been waiting alone for too long, and the long length of time could change or destroy a person.

Feng Sheng used to be arrogant. He still managed to fall asleep peacefully on the night he received the news of his lover’s death, but he never thought that it would be the last gift that the god of insomnia would bless him with. He thought he could redirect all his attention and focus on work instead, but found that everywhere he looked, everyone sported the look of his dead lover. What was he to do? How should he do it? He’s even prayed to god countless times that someone who shared their past memories as lovers would appear before him.

However, the prayers could never come true, so he decided to become his own god, through the process of countless re-rendering of his personality and failure of his specialized organ parts, Feng Sheng would be disappointed and slowly destroyed over and over again.

He picked up smoking along the way, using this destructive pastime to try and restore his racing mind to some semblance of peace from before that he knew was fake. When the scent of smoke began to cling to his fingers, Feng Sheng had the revelation that he had already gone insane, whether he wanted to resurrect his lover or whether he was successful in his endeavors, he would soon lose it.

It is said that a thousand tries will be met with a few thousandths of chances. When he procured the present Tan Yunxiao from his culture solution, he was nothing short of ecstatic. Wiping that face he had seen umpteen times before with his sleeves, he couldn’t even bring himself to feel nauseous, only anticipation.

He knew that the god of technology had bestowed upon him this gift, for he must cherish it well this time.

It was unbeknownst to them who made the first move, or who’s lips touched the other but the two rolled on top of each other while tearing at the other’s clothes, eager for each other’s touch.

When Feng Sheng became one with Tan Yunxiao’s body, his brain had already been unable to think as he obsessively pressed Tan Yunxiao under him, ignoring the other’s writhing. He did it harshly as he bit down on his shoulder, unwilling to let go.

“fvck, my head hit the headboard of the bed, have you gone mad?”

Feng Sheng was only slightly relieved when he heard Tan Yunxiao reprimanding him, kissing his lover’s collarbone as compensation as he turned his petite partner over so that he was now sitting on top of him.

“What are you doing?” His lover sounded impatient.

“Move yourself.” Feng Sheng had said meekly.

With their lips and lower halves connected, Tan Yunxiao didn’t even have the chance to move twice before he was broken under Feng Sheng’s ministrations and could only lie pliantly on Feng Sheng’s chest and allow the other to move inside him from time to time, with broken moans escaping his lips which only fueled Feng Sheng’s lust.

Unlike previously, this time had been more intense. Chalking it up to the new position, or shift in mood between the both of them, they were both exhausted by the end of it.

The two laid in bed side-by-side, staring at the ceiling, breathing heavily like fishes out of water.

“Ah.” Feng Sheng had broken the silence first. “This isn’t a bad idea dear, to change one’s taste.”

“En, I guess that makes sense.” Tan Yunxiao replied as he turned around, only to see Feng Sheng’s quiet expression.

He smiled silently as his eyes sparkled.

 


T/L notes: I had to do a double-take when I saw our precious Yunxiao swearing. And wow, it really did say 他妈的 ^^;
I guess it isn’t all that bad since he’s beginning to learn how to be human (?) or that he’s changing to become his own person? Well, maybe not… I just have a terrible habit of often overanalyzing simple stuff, so don’t mind me!

Hope you enjoyed the chapter, there’s still one last one left for the ride and I think its more of an epilogue than anything else, so buckle up 😀
