Chapter 131: How Is Your Relationship Getting On?
“Next time, please pay attention.” Fang Zhu hung up the phone once she finished speaking.
Lu Yi leaned against the bedframe and continued to watch the television. “This scene is quite elegant.” He seldom set a high value on a television program.
Lei Qingyi put his food on the table and sat down.
“How about you and the old nun?” he asked through a mouthful of rice.
The old nun he mentioned was none other than Fang Zhu; he had never seen a woman without a single hair out of place, was it possible that she applied hair gel secretly?
Lu Yi looked up at him with stiff features and expression.
“Alright, I won’t talk about it,” Lei Qingyi shrugged his shoulders and picked up the spoon to continue eating. But he couldn’t help speaking again soon after, he would suffocate to death if anyone didn’t let him open his mouth while he ate.
“Can I ask you something?” He looked tentatively at his best friend who looked like a stone in front of him. He knew Lu Yi’s temper very well, don’t forget, they were good friends that grew up wearing the same pants. Yes, they were brothers in terms of kinship, very close family members.
“Yes.” Lu Yi’s lifestyle was like an old man, it wasn’t surprising that he wasn’t romantic. But Fang Zhu wasn’t much better…
It was true that they were quite the pair. A pure-hearted monk and a voluntary nun, they could live together quite well. He still felt something strange.
“Tell me the truth,” Lei Qingyi emphasized. “You’re like a brother to me, don’t keep any secrets.”
“Yes.” Lu Yi murmured assent and continued to eat his food. He didn’t even look at his phone or at the newspaper on the table, he just ate his food quietly. He looked like a quiet, handsome man. No, maybe a quiet, handsome brick.
“How is your relationship getting on?” Lei Qingyi asked straightforwardly as he fed himself another mouthful of rice. He hoped to receive a straightforward answer in response.
“Why do you want to know?” Lu Yi asked in reply.
“There’s a lot I want to know about,” Lei Qingyi said in cheeky response. He wanted to know about Lu Yi’s sex life, was it the same as his temper- lacking passion? “Do you have sex with her?” Lei Qingyi asked instead. They were both mature adults in a romantic relationship, if nothing happened between them wouldn’t that be weird?
“No.” Lu Yi didn’t even lift his head.
“You haven’t had sex yet?” Lei Qingyi was not surprised, honestly. If it actually happened, he would feel that the world had gone mad.
“Kissed?” He asked again.
“No.”
“Hug?”
“No.”
Lei Qingyi dropped his chopsticks on the table. Then he grabbed his hair, “Don’t tell me that you haven’t even held hands?”
“We haven’t.” Lu Yi’s answer nearly made Lei Qingyi collapse.
“Oh my god!” He covered his face with his hands. “Lu Yi, did you get yourself a girlfriend or a teacher?”
Lu Yi frowned, he doesn’t know?
“I can’t make sense of you.” Lei Qingyi lifted his bowl and ate a big mouthful of rice. “Oh, by the way, did you watch Journey to Fairyland? It’s pretty good.” Lei Qingyi couldn’t help but change the subject so suddenly, it popped into his head and he couldn’t stop himself from bringing it up. They had been this way since they were young: one was quiet and another was active. One couldn’t speak anything for a long time and another kept talking as if afraid of indigestion.
“Yan Huan looked stunning in the ancient costume, my mother has become her loyal fan. If the person that you saved really was Yan Huan, how nice would it be if I could get her autograph? My mother sure would love me after that…”
“Does your mother not love you now? Are you two enemies?” Lu Yi raised his face and asked drily.
Lei Qingyi had to let out a loud hiccup before he could answer. “Not enemies, but we might be soon. Because I still haven’t got a girlfriend.” Lei Qingyi paused, then shuddered as he said “But if my girlfriend is the same as yours… in that case, I’d rather find a boyfriend.”
Lu Yi ate slowly, his movements extremely relaxed, but he looked good like that. He looked like a noble prince.
His formal mannerisms kept strangers and acquaintances away.
“I’ll go and get some more rice,” Lei Qingyi said. He picked up his bowl and added some rice. It wasn’t enough for him, though. Since he was almost twice as large as most other people, he needed double the amount of food, too.
Lu Yi put down his chopsticks and reached out for his phone. When his finger slid on the phone, he took the time to surf Weibo. She gained some followers today, Yan Huan seems to be popular…
“Fighting,” he said, his lips arched into a half-curved smile.
“Huanhuan, fighting,” Yi Ling hugged Yan Huan. “You’re doing great, I’m so proud of you.”
Yan Huan clenched her hand into a fist at Yi Ling. “Yes, fighting.”
The trial broadcast of Journey to Fairyland came to a perfect ending. Though only two episodes had been broadcasted, with the beautiful images, the good-looking actors, and the magical effects, the drama had become popular in all the film and TV circles. The actors who appeared on screen had seen great increase in their popularity, especially the new actress, Yan Huan, who was now widely known in every household.
As there was a good start, during the next shooting everyone was invigorated and deliberate about their work.
Ding Ming played the role of a cook on Green Mountain in the drama. Though he was just a so-called cook, he was daring and lecherous and interested in the master’s daughter, Qing Yao.
Cook Ding squeezed his eyes shut, his mouth watered whenever he saw the lady in white come over.
“Miss Qing Yao.” He hastened to step forward, and Yan Huan turned and exuded an aura of iciness when she looked at him. She was cold and arrogant, as if she placed herself above all other things on earth.
Cook Ding stumbled and fell flat on his face.
“Cut!” The director frowned, the shooting had been going smoothly recently, especially Yan Huan’s scenes, and it had been a long time since she hadn’t been able to shoot in a single take.
