NOVEL NEXT Fang Qiao had always thought Lu was a rich guy who was idling about and romantic, but Fang didn’t expect Lu could be a mysterious guy with his life being tortuous.
Fang wanted to listen to this first-love story while eating sun flower seeds. However, Lu didn’t want to say more, so Fang had to give up the thought.
“No wonder your avatar is a leaf! You still remember your old flame.” Fang sighed with emotion.
Lu frowned. He didn’t do it on purpose really.
“Mr. Lu, will I have to pretend to fall in love with you in front of your family?”
“Yes, until my dad stops arranging my marriage.”
Biting his own lips, Fang still wanted to struggle.
Lu opened his mouth again, “Don’t worry! You’ll get enough benefits. To make you popular or to offer you twenty cake shops, it depends on you!”
“I choose cake shops.”
“Well.”
Upgrading from a real love to a false boyfriend, Fang was very happy as if he had seen the opening of his twentieth Mr. Fang’s Cake Shop. He had even thought of the guests to be invited to cut the ribbon on the ceremony. He would let Mr. Lu stand in the middle.
Later he passed by a bookshop on his way home, and happened to see Lu’s image on the cover of a magazine. Without any thinking, Fang let the boss take 20 copies for him.
After all Lu had promised to sponsor his 20 cake shops, so it might be proper for him to support the sales.
Having returned home, Fang lay on the bed looking through the magazine. There were four pages in the magazine about the interview of Lu Yanzhou, whose content was about some achievements he had made during the three years since he took over the company.
Fang didn’t want to read it closely since the words had been written in advance, whose speaking style was totally not like Lu’s.
But the photo on the cover was pretty good with the guy in brick-red sweater, and looking dignified. Fang thought Lu could be a model even if his company went bankrupt one day because of his ill-management.
Fang stared at the enlarged face of Lu for quite a while, and gradually the kiss in the office today appeared in his mind.
It was ashamed to say that actually this was the first kiss of Fang.
Although he had slept with Lu many times in the past few years, but it was the first time for them to kiss. It seemed that Lu didn’t want to have much contact with his bed mates except sex.
Fang didn’t know what kind of feeling kissing with someone should have, but he felt quite comfortable when kissed by Lu. He thought about it, touched his lips, and his cheeks actually burned hot unconsciously. Besides, he got the tendency of erection.
Actually he hadn’t dealt with it for a few days, so he untied his underwear saying, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lu.,” and masturbated in front of the magazine cover.
Lu Yanzhou who was playing outside happily that night suddenly began to sneeze without stop. He had to leave early, and went home to have a cup of ginger tea.
Three days later, before the recording of the TV show, Fang sent a message to Lu saying he was grateful for Lu’s arrangement, and without Lu, he would be nobody, and so on.
Lu was attending the starting-up news conference of a movie as an investor, and got bored sitting offstage that day. So when he got the message, he took out his phone immediately.
Baby Zhou: Say something normal.
Baby Qiao: Thank you for letting me in the TV show today.
Lu remembered there seemed to be such a thing. He helped Han Jiayue propagate his new play at the time, and involved Fang Qiao in by the way.
Two lovers at a time! Such an efficiency!
Baby Zhou: Behave yourself. Don’t be out in the first round.
Baby Qiao: OK, Mr. Lu. But why is your avatar changed?”
The original leaf was changed into the London Bridge.
Baby Zhou: Well, Fang Qiao.
Baby Qiao: …
Baby Zhou: To make a play, you have to make a whole set.
Fang thought Lu seemed to be a straight guy, straighter even than steel.
Just as the agent had said, there were six stars present at the recording, and besides Fang, the unknown walk-on, all of the other five leading roles were hot stars in vogue currently.
During the introduction section, the audience offstage screamed the moment those hot stars opened their mouths, and various kinds of cameras aimed at them clicking away.
When it was Fang’s turn to introduce, there was a dead silence suddenly in the audience.
Han Jiayue, who was standing right in the middle couldn’t help raising his eyebrows with pride.
Luckily enough, the host was Fang’s former teammate, He Yuan. Picking up the thread of Fang’s words quickly, he diffused the embarrassment tactfully using a couple of funny jokes.
After the introduction, it was game time to warm up. Two persons a group. They drew lots to match.
As a result, Fang was fortunate enough to match the lead, Han Jiayue.
Fang accepted the arrangement very calmly, while Han, staying in a place without cameras got quite angry.
The rule of the game was to tie up the two persons back to back with a rope, and the two had to carry things back and forth between two places. The group who had carried most in allowed time would win.
While being tied up, Han Jiayue turned around to lean towards Fang’s ear, and kept whispering, “Don’t think yourself extraordinary though you have got connected with Mr. Lu. Being in the entertainment circle, you have to depend on yourself after all.”
Fang hadn’t thought Han could care about his development. He nodded to accept Han’s words modestly, and said, “Be at ease! I am skillful on bed.” Han’s eyes got red with anger.
As a result, when the game began, Han took up the role of being a stupid teammate actively, stepping on Fang’s feet all the way.
Fang got an unusual sense of competition in games. He bent down to back up Han to run directly in order not to be encumbered by his teammate.
The moment Han’s shanks left the ground, he struggled more violently. He just wobbled on Fang’s back, struggling to look for trouble.
Not being strong enough, Fang lost his balance and fell down sideways. The two rolled together on the ground immediately.
Fang was out in the first round just as the doomsayer Lu Yanzhou had said.
