Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me Chapter 224 : Shen Jingwei’s Maternity Shoot

Shen Jingwei did not return ho that night.

He didn’t even send any updates about Yan Renzhong’s condition.

Mother Shen and Shen Dou Dou sat together at the living room after dinner, pondering over the situation at hand.

Mother Shen, concerned, said, "I think we should pay them a visit. What if sothing bad happened to Little Yan and Jingwei needs help urgently?"

Shen Dou Dou, who knew better, said, "No, Mom, what if we disturb them? It is good for a couple to spend so ti together so they can work on their issues."

Mother Shen nodded to herself.

"Dou Dou, you are right. Well, then, let’s send them a fruit basket instead."

The fruit basket arrived the next morning, along with a bunch of other gifts, sent by Yan Renzhong’s diehard fans upon receiving news about their idol’s sudden lapse of health.

Unbeknownst to them, Yan Renzhong was extrely healthy.

After two days of enjoying honeymoon-like respite with his lover, he was practically as good as new; in contrast to Shen Jingwei, who had yet to recover from their strenuous physical activities.

Nursing an aching back and sore waist, the poor man had to support his waist everyti he moved, making it almost look like he was going to fall apart whenever he dragged his battered and bruised body from one room to another.

The culprit, Yan Renzhong, was more than happy to pamper his little lover during the day, but he still wanted to tornt him at night.

Until eventually, Shen Jingwei, who could no longer tolerate the constant pounding, moved to his own bedroom and banned Yan Renzhong from going in.

After only one night, Yan Renzhong was on his knees, begging Shen Jingwei to move back to his bedroom, with the promise not to initiate sex when Shen Jingwei did not want it.

The days at their ho unfolded like a tranquil river, each mont flowing seamlessly into the next. The couple, entwined in a comfortable rhythm, cherished every stolen hour together.

Before they knew it, the fourth shooting period of "Dance Of The Dragons" began.

It was in this shooting period, close to the end of the second season, that a new character, Xie Jianzhi, was introduced to the drama.

Xie Jianzhi was the illegitimate son of the Heavenly Emperor, born several years before Xie Jianyu.

While the character was initially portrayed as a humble and agreeable alpha who took care of orphan children in an orphanage, his real character was revealed at the end of the second season.

This shooting period also marked the first ti Shen Jingwei and the other cast mbers got to see Jin Zhuo’s acting skill in person.

When asked to comnt on Jin Zhuo’s performance, each cast mber had their own opinion.

Lin Ruoye would say, "It’s very good for starters!"

Feng Jietang would say, "It is passable."

Yan Renzhong would say, "He has a lot to work on."

But Shang Ruohai, whose opinion actually mattered, rcilessly said, "My grandfather can deliver a more convincing act. He is 94 years old, blind, and suffers from advancing Alzheir’s."

His cruel comnts were as sharp as a dentist’s drill, causing those who heard him to wince in pain.

"I am sorry," the pale-faced Jin Zhuo said after being forced to repeat his fourth scene for the fifth ti that day.

"Stand up straight!" Shang Ruohai hissed at him, prompting Jin Zhuo to stand rigidly like a new military recruit. "Are you a man or a worm? Are you deliberately putting up a disgraceful show to embarrass CNC Studio?"

"No, I am sorry..."

Jin Zhuo was on the verge of tears. Never before had anyone scolded him so harshly.

anwhile, Director Ma and Vice Director Qin stood behind Shang Ruohai, silently cheering him on.

Directors were always seen as the villains on the set. Thus when soone as powerful as Shang Ruohai willingly took over this job, the two directors were more than happy to step aside and let him cook.

"Ck, I am leaving," Shang Ruohai announced after a while. "I can’t stand looking at stupid people."

With little effort, Shang Ruohai secured his position as the MVP.

"...."

Jin Zhuo, face deep red in color, ground his teeth in anger.

Apparently, he needed to do more than just colluding with Lang Yuxuan to bring Shen Jingwei down.

He also needed to work on himself.

Otherwise, Shang Ruohai might kick him out of CNC Studio before he could propose becoming Yan Renzhong’s ntee.

Thanks to Jin Zhuo’s less-than-diocre acting, the other cast mbers unexpectedly had a lot of free ti on their hands.

The social dia team grasped this chance and whisked them away to various sets to shoot promotional photos for Weibo.

"While #RenWei is still our most popular couple, #JieWei follows closely behind. We need to feed our fans properly, otherwise the ship is going to sink!" so the social dia specialist said.

Since Xie Jianyu got pregnant near the end of the second season, Shen Jingwei was made to wear maternity clothes specifically designed for him.

Yan Renzhong, who was asked to pose with pregnant Shen Jingwei many tis, enjoyed the photo shoot so much that he ended up asking for a soft copy of the picture.

The social dia team was more than happy to give him a flash drive to take ho.

Shen Jingwei grabbed Yan Renzhong’s hand and asked in a suspicious tone, "Wait, what is that for?"

He was always sowhat flustered when faced with Yan Renzhong’s impregnation kink.

The answer to that question was as clear as day for Yan Renzhong.

"This? I am going to supersize, print, fra it, and hang it at our bedroom wall."

He had already pictured the perfect spot for the massive fra: directly across from the bed, flanked by two lamps for optimal lighting.

Perfect to watch especially during the night.

Shen Jingwei turned pale from hearing Yan Renzhong’s words.

"No way!" He snapped. "What if Yaya sees it???"

Song Yaya ca to stay for two days and one night every two weekends, and she loved playing in Yan Renzhong’s bedroom the most.

Shen Jingwei already stashed away Yan Renzhong’s sex toys in a locked drawer just to preserve Song Yaya’s innocent eyes.

What would the little girl say when a massive picture of pregnant Shen Jingwei was displayed at the wall?
