Chapter Ch77 - Everything Would Be Full of mories, Everything Would Be Full of Love.

Editor: Amaris

When he saw Gu Xi approaching him at first glance, Ye Chen followed his instinct to take a step back.

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows. “What are you afraid of?”

Ye Chen, “...” I’m afraid you’ll be fierce towards .

He did not need to say anything, Gu Xi already knew what was on his mind.

Ye Chen had shot two movies with full preparations. Gu Xi guided him through the whole process, which had extrely worn him out.

At first, he was very patient, explaining and teaching everything to him. Afterwards, he deeply realized that God was fair. There was an absolute principle that if he opened one door, another was bound to be closed.

A Chen was good at a lot of things, but his -100 acting skill was beyond saving.

Gu Xi kept on teaching him again and again without getting much result that his irascible temper ca out. It was inevitable for him to scold Ye Chen.

In the past, this boy would definitely fight back upon being scolded. Still, he had always been dedicated to his work and he had known very well that he didn’t act well. What Gu Xi said was reasonable, thus he listened to him properly.

But when he put on such a pitiful look, Father Gu couldn’t help but soften. The second he softened...he began to spoil his child again.

With how things had gone on, yep, there would be sothing fishy if Ye Chen’s acting skills could improve.

Gu Xi swept his eyes over the script as he said, “Co, I’ll walk you through.”

Ye Chen thought inside his heart: I’d be fine if it’s with you, but when you left...

Gu Xi adjusted his feelings. He started to talk, “Who’s that? Introduce her to , she’s so pretty.”

Ye Chen paused for a mont, he had yet to adjust to the mood. But the mont Gu Xi shot a aningful glance at him, countless mories welled up in his mind with a swish. Without thinking much, he blurted out the lines, “She’s only a classmate, don’t jump into conclusions.”

Gu Xi bantered with him, “How did you know that I’m jumping into conclusions?” He used his arm to nudge Ye Chen. “Co on, isn’t there sothing else? I really can’t fathom it, you’re actually quite popular.”

Gu Xi’s tone and behavior instantly made Ye Chen feel a bit proud of himself. He spoke according to the script, “What about it? Am I not allowed to?” He naturally revealed the cheerfulness of a youngster as he joked around familiarly with a friend.

Director Li who was watching on the side imdiately clapped his hands and cheered, “Perfect! That’s it! The feeling is just right!”

Gu Xi promptly stopped acting, then raised his eyebrows as he looked at Ye Chen. “You already know how you should act, right?”

Ye Chen, “...” Know what?

Movie King Ren was singing Ye Chen praises, “That was excellent, you’re doing wonderful.”

Ye Chen’s face reddened. Even though he had no idea how he had acted, being praised made him feel very happy.

Gu Xi took a glance at Ren Jing and felt that Ye Chen’s acting skills might really not improve anymore for his whole life.

Director Li urged him, “Since you’ve found the right feeling, we should imdiately try shooting again.”

The teen idol got his makeup fixed and ca back. Then he proceeded to repeat the lines he had morized in his mind.

Ye Chen really didn’t want to make things difficult for this boy. It wasn’t easy to gather everyone in a crew like this, it was a kind of fate that had brought people together, he would love to perform properly with them.

But actually, this was the biggest problem. The more he thought that way, the more deliberately he acted, the more...

Director Li said, “Let’s call it a day. A Chen, you should take a rest.”

Ye Chen didn’t feel tired at all, but he knew that with his current condition, he wouldn’t be able to et Director Li’s expectations no matter how he acted.

When he went back, Ren Jing consoled him, “It’s alright, I feel that you’ve perford very well.”

Ye Chen lifted his head to look at him.

Ren Jing’s face was so genuine that not even a 24K genuine gold could compare.

A chilly voice could be heard from the back, “If you call his performance well, everyone could probably get an Oscar already.”

Ye Chen heaved a long sigh.

Gu Xi approached them. “Get your feet moving, we’ll grab a al.”

He ca over to check on his son ‘in passing’, and it happened to be alti, it would make sense to just have a al together.

Ye Chen said, “Let’s go eat...”

Gu Xi couldn’t bear to see his crestfallen look. He said again, “If you didn’t perform well then so be it. It’s not like this is your first ti.”

Ye Chen quietly took another glance at Gu Xi, then averted his gaze as he heaved another deep sigh.

Ren Jing was still comforting him. However, not even Ye Chen himself believed Ren Jing’s words. Even if Ren Jing might really feel that he had acted well, there was this saying: ‘To see soone with rose-tinted glasses’, thus he couldn’t believe Ren Jing’s words... Still, thinking back on it made Ye Chen feel quite happy.

Gu Xi said, “I’ve never seen you so serious before.” Ye Chen was an amateur in the showbiz. At that ti, Gu Xi thought that he was a pain in the ass who had too much ti on his hands, so he dragged him along to have fun. Ye Chen had never been serious (about the showbiz), after all. If one wanted to beco famous, even if their acting standard wasn’t very good, they would still be able to make it by relying on their looks and proper managent.

Ye Chen took a look at Ren Jing, then said in a low voice, “It’s different this ti.”

Gu Xi inexplicably felt he had a toothache. He said, “Why is it different?”

Ye Chen looked at Ren Jing again. Ren Jing slightly pursed his lips in response. The look of the two who were keeping their little secret to themselves made Gu Xi’s tooth ached even more.

He had been in love too, but why hadn’t he experienced this? Could it be that he and Shen Jiaze’s relationship weren’t true love?

Shen Jiaze who was ‘thrown’ into the car outside inexplicably sneezed, he suddenly felt a bit chilly.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Yang Sen ca over and said a few words to Ren Jing. Ren Jing said, “You should go in first, I’ll go make a call.”

Ye Chen said, “Go ahead. I’ll order for you, I know what you like to eat.”

Ren Jing smiled. “Mn.”

Gu Xi sneered. “Goodness, you’ve only been familiar with each other for a month, yet you know what he likes to eat? I’ve known you for more than twenty years, but you don’t seem to know what I like to eat?”

Ye Chen grinned. “That’s what Shen Jiaze should know. I need not worry about that.”

Gu Xi rolled his eyes.

Ye Chen was feeling curious, thus he asked, “How are things with you and him?”

Gu Xi had already taken his seat. He grabbed the nu and looked at it seriously.

Ye Chen poked him. “I’m asking you.”

Gu Xi knitted his brows. His expression was saying that he couldn’t care less as he said, “What else could it be?”

Ye Chen, “He has always liked you, you also like him. You...”

Gu Xi laughed grimly. “So what? Just because I like a fool, I have to be together with him?”

Ye Chen, “...”

Gu Xi stated, “Don’t ntion him.”

Ye Chen pondered over it for a bit. He felt that Gu Xi had probably not walked out of it yet. To tell the truth, back when Shen Jiaze had misunderstood that Gu Xi was treating him as a substitute; in those couple of years, he worked his hardest, doing everything he could, endlessly challenging Gu Xi’s bottom line. If Gu Xi didn’t love him, he wouldn’t have been able to endure for that long.

But what was the use of enduring? Eventually, he couldn’t bear it any longer and had chosen to give up.

After they broke up, Shen Jiaze left his hotown. No one knew better than Ye Chen about Gu Xi’s despair and sufferings back then.

Could the scar heal right away just because they had solved the misunderstandings? It wasn’t that simple.

Gu Xi had even attempted to take his life once. How could he just accept this relationship conveniently?

The sudden despair was still bearable. The only fear was that they would torture each other.

After thinking about it for a long ti, all he could say was, “In conclusion...you two should communicate more.”

Gu Xi thought: “If communication is such a simple thing, there won’t be that many languishing youths and unhappy maidens in this world anymore.”

In fact, Gu Xi was a little curious, too. He told Ye Chen, “I can’t fathom that you’d fall in love.”

They grew up together, so he knew Ye Chen’s disposition very well. Ye Chen would probably find it embarrassing to admit he liked soone because of his awkward personality. But then, how could he beco this sweet to Ren Jing in such a short ti?

Ye Chen didn’t dare to respond.

Death System imdiately felt pleased with itself. “Oooh, whose rit is it if not for this father!?”

Surprisingly, Ye Chen couldn’t refute its words...

Death System laughed as cheaply as it could, “When you get married, Laozi must beco the witness!”

Ye Chen, “...” Could soone please help stop this insane system?

Gu Xi let out another sigh. “Fortune favors fools. Everything is fated.”

Ye Chen still refused to comply. Just when he was about to refute, Gu Xi called a waiter over to forcefully end the conversations.

When they were done ordering the food, Gu Xi asked again, “You really want to perform well in this movie?”

Ye Chen nodded. “I have to.”

“Why?”

Ye Chen paused for a mont before revealing his intentions embarrassingly, “I won’t accept any more acting roles once I finished shooting this one. My father is already old, I should give him a hand.”

Gu Xi, “That’s the right mindset.”

Ye Chen added, “Which is why...this would be my first and last work together with Ren Jing.”

Gu Xi said, “Even if you keep on accepting acting roles, there aren’t many gay movies for you to shoot with our country’s circumstances.”

Ye Chen said, “Yeah, which is why I wanted to perform well in this one.” He hesitated for a mont before continuing, “Think about it... When Ren Jing and I are old, watching the movie we shot while we were still young together, how...”

“Stop!” Gu Xi couldn’t keep listening anymore, he had goosebumps all over. Why would he bother to ask for dog food to swallow?

Ye Chen cleared his throat, then he said under his breath, “At any rate, that’s how things are. I’ll try my best to act well!”

Gu Xi believed that Ye Chen would strive his best and that he really wanted to act well. Unfortunately, not everything in this world could be accomplished even though one had tried their best and wished to do it well.

So flaws were inborn, such as Ye Chen’s acting skills.

Not long after, Ren Jing ca over. The three had a light al.

Actually, Ye Chen and Ren Jing really didn’t an to make a public display of affection on purpose, but their unconscious gestures made people feel the imnse hint of love.

Everyone could see the surging love between them, so thick it had seeped deep into their bones from the expressions in their eyes, their movents, and so other minor details they inadvertently did.

How nice.

Surprisingly, Gu Xi had a delicious al.

He still didn’t believe in love, but when he witnessed other people’s love, it felt as if he could give himself so bits of confidence, too.

Looking at Ye Chen who was wearing such a sweet expression, Gu Xi wanted to fulfill his wish.

He was anticipating, anticipating the ti when Ren Jing and Ye Chen had turned old, sitting on the sofa, looking at each other’s appearances while they were still young.

Everything would be full of mories, everything would be full of love.

It would be really nice.

After he went back, Gu Xi gave Li Fu a call.

Li Fu answered nervously, “You, what do you need?” One never went to the temple for no reason. They were sworn enemies, after all!

Gu Xi said, “Director Li, are you currently short of a supporting actor?”

Li Fu, “Eh?”

Gu Xi added, “I’ll settle the accounts with Song Zhen (the teen idol who acted as Ye Chen’s best friend), pay him three tis more, and arrange for a more suitable role for him. So, could you hand over that role to ?”

Li Fu was in a daze for a while before he asked, “Who are you going to give the role to?”

Gu Xi said cheerily, “What about ?”

Li Fu was so shocked he nearly threw his cellphone away!

The author has sothing to say:

Director Li: My movie...my movie is... QAQ!

T/N: Hi. I know the update is very late, I deeply apologize for that. A lot of things happened, and I’m still too shocked to process everything properly. It’s very chaotic here at the mont, so I need a mont. I’m so sorry once again, I’ll try my best to update on ti next ti.

anwhile, enjoy the slight angst (and foreshadowing?) of Gu Xi’s past mmmmm. I could assure you that Shen Jiaze is not a scum, it’s just..munication issue, I think. They’re still young too at that ti, so...yeah. Rash and impulsive, among other things. You know the deal. More details will be included in the side stories, so please look forward to them~

Also, hope you’ll look forward to the return of the “chaotic trio” and Director Li being on verge of collapsing because of the chaos caused by them LOL! Until then, see you.

update

TW// ntions of death and so depressing things, please don’t read if you’re not comfortable with these.

okay...so. so many things are happening at once they’re too much for to swallow. i never really told anything about my personal life i guess, but just for this once.

my uncle got COVID-19 and passed away yesterday. it’s the truth, but i still can’t believe it had happened. it’s too sudden. i swear. he was quarantined in the hospital and had been doing well last week. he could even make video calls and do everyday things properly... is this even real? i’m not even sure anymore. the situation here is in so much disarray. none of my fam could eat or do chores properly. i know i can’t do much, but yeah, i need to fill in the chores for them, while still feeling dispirited myself. i need to help my sibling and nephew with their studies. i myself also have those annoying cloud etings i have to attend ksksksksksk. i don’t mind doing all of these really, im just trying my best to get a handle on them and not to overthink or overwhelm myself in this situation. not to ntion, i kinda snapped as a result of bottling up my feelings all this ti urk. i wanted to tell my parents i need to see a therapist but boyyyy the timing is just gahhhhh with all of this thing happening. so, yeah. i’m so sorry, but i might need to take a break here... i need to calm myself down for now. i’m so sorry you had to read all of these, and thank you for keeping up with my shits. just this once, i promise.
