“…Alright then,” Kong-jie said. “I’ll have someone suppress the trending topic right away.” Kong-jie added, “Oh right, remember that crime drama I mentioned to you earlier? The funding’s already in place. All the artists from our studio have secured roles, and they’re fairly substantial parts so there shouldn’t be a problem. The director said he wants to personally cast the two most important characters. Supposedly, he already has someone in mind for one of them and is currently in…-

None of the people present expected Yan Yushan to just grab Xu Xishuang and leave in such an obviously protective manner. Even a fool could tell there was something unusual between the two of them. The staff all stopped in their tracks and silently stepped aside, giving them a wide path to exit. The director clutched at what little hair he had left again, worrying whether this episode could even be aired. The others quietly packed their things, occasionally sneaking glances at Tang Min, exchanging…

Thanks to Bai Keke’s passionate guidance, within just half an hour, Xu Xishuang had learned a shocking number of “little tricks” he had never even heard of before. He couldn’t help but marvel inwardly. It turns out, when people fall in love, they can grow a hundred and eight new brains just to win the one they like. His cousin had warned him countless times that he was too slow when it came to subtle feelings, and one day he would suffer for it emotionally. Xu Xishuang had never cared. He had…

When he received that message from Xu Xishuang, Yan Yushan suddenly felt a twinge of regret. He had been angry just now—angry that Xu Xishuang secretly joined the show without telling him. He didn’t want to fight with him, so he followed along and joined the shoot. That way, if anything happened to Xu Xishuang, he could protect him right away. He suddenly remembered that Xu Xishuang hated him now—hated him so much that just being near him too long made him feel like coughing up blood. What…

Two days passed quickly. That afternoon, Xu Xishuang got into the nanny van Zhao-jie had arranged, bringing the restless Xiao Wang along, heading to the Fruit Channel’s broadcast building. Xiao Wang, uneasy and worried, shot a triple question at Xu Xishuang. “Xishuang, are you really okay to join the show? Are you sure your body’s fine? We really don’t need to tell Best Actor Yan?” “I’m fine. I’m doing well. No need,” Xu Xishuang replied. “Did Yan Yushan ask you to keep an eye on…

… The bed at Yan Yushan’s house was easily ten times softer than the one at the hotel. When Xu Xishuang lay down, it felt like he was sinking into a cloud. For once, he had a deep, dreamless sleep, and when he woke up the next day, he felt totally refreshed—like he could punch out two Jiang Yangze at once. Just kidding. After washing up, Xu Xishuang followed his usual routine and took a photo of his baby bump. Last night, while doing laundry, Xiao Wang had found some large clips in the…

Xiao Wang came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl. When he saw the two people in the living room, he stopped in his tracks. There was something off about the atmosphere, though he couldn’t quite put his finger on it. Xu Xishuang noticed the bowl in Xiao Wang’s hands and turned to ask Yan Yushan, “Why don’t you eat before you go?” “No need,” Yan Yushan replied, turning to head upstairs. “I’ll just pack my things.” He packed quickly. In no time, he came back down in a fresh set…

Xu Xishuang realized his attempt to drive Yan Yushan away had been a little too obvious. He pressed his lips together and watched as Yan Yushan headed upstairs to change clothes. As Yan Yushan’s figure disappeared around the staircase landing, Xiao Wang came out of the kitchen. He was a little afraid of Yan Yushan now—not that he could explain exactly why. Maybe it was because of the way Yan Yushan had looked at him the other night when they talked about the contract. It was a look that said if he…

Xu Xishuang hadn’t expected that answer at all. Jiang Yangze saw his expression and realized he might’ve said something wrong. He quickly raised a hand to cover his mouth, stammering, “Haha, right, Yan-ge’s not here, haha…” He couldn’t hold it in for long. He hesitated, then cautiously asked, “So, uh, Xu Xishuang, what’s your relationship with my Yan-ge now? Should I call you sister-in-law?” Xu Xishuang held himself back, reminding himself he was pregnant and needed to stay…

… The night of the wrap party, everyone stayed out late and had a blast. In the middle of the night, Xu Xishuang was woken up by the ruckus they made returning to the hotel—sounding like ghosts wailing and wolves howling. He lay in bed staring at the ceiling for a while, then groped for his phone by the pillow and started scrolling through Weibo to lull himself back to sleep. He didn’t have to get up early the next day anyway. The official account for their film had already posted the wrap…
