Chapter 32 Tears in the play "Just showing affection, so what"

But since the post had already been forwarded, He Yan had no choice. He couldn't just say that this was too "desensitizing" and ask Zhu Shengting to withdraw it!

He swallowed his dry throat, drank some water, and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"Maybe they'll get used to it in another week." Zhu Shengting stared at He Yan and smiled meaningfully.

He Yan raised his eyebrows suspiciously. He didn't think it was that simple.

Some extreme fans don’t seem like they’ll give up. What if they do something even more extreme?

However, there is no better way at the moment, and we can only continue the desensitization treatment.

Huang Min and Zhan Ming, who had finished lunch early, came over with a stack of lunch boxes and got into the nanny car. He Yan and the others helped put the food on the table.

"Brother Ting and Brother Yan, Producer Zhang asked me to tell you about the crew's subsequent publicity arrangements." Zhan Ming took out the work documents.

When He Yan smelled the fragrance of the food, he realized that he was extremely hungry. He ate while listening to Zhan Ming's notice.

"You two need to record the theme song tonight. There's a press conference on Friday. The first and second episodes of the show will air next Thursday and Friday. The crew will arrange an online live broadcast on Saturday night. Then, on Sunday of next week, we'll record the promotional variety show 'Happy Everyday See You'. That's all for now," Zhan Ming finished in one breath.

Zhu Shengting nodded, indicating that he had received the information.

"Doesn't the audience know that we are filming and broadcasting at the same time?" He Yan suddenly remembered this and slowed down his eating.

"Yes, Editor Dong said before that we can keep it a secret for now." Huang Min covered her mouth and smiled.

He Yan understood, "Okay, okay."

"If there's nothing else, you can take a lunch break first. You've worked hard." Zhu Shengting put down his chopsticks.

"Okay, then we'll go first." Huang Min and Zhan Ming looked at each other, then got out of the nanny car.

"Wow, did you just check Weibo?" Huang Min started chatting with Zhan Ming as soon as he got out of the car.

"I saw it, I saw it... It's horrifying!" Zhan Ming's eyebrows danced with joy, completely different from the calm and composed report he had just made in the car. "Is this just a business deal or a true outpouring of emotion..."

Huang Min stood there with her arms folded. Her expression was serious, and she obviously thought for a while before answering, "Well, it's hard to say. Sister Shan just came to see them. I guess it's because the trending search this morning didn't go well, so..."

Zhan Ming calmed down and felt that Huang Min's analysis was more reliable. After all, no one knew better than them the "mutual bitching" relationship between their own artists and the other party's artists. Now the two of them are just grasshoppers on the same rope.

"But their relationship has indeed improved a lot. Maybe they can become friends in the future!" Huang Min waved his hand indifferently.

This interaction between He Yan and Zhu Shengting on Weibo not only caused a sensation among the people around them.

The feaster, who had just been knocked out by a big candy in the morning, had not yet recovered from the sweetness of having his earlobes pinched, and was knocked out by another candy at noon.

The host of the CP super topic directly changed the super topic avatar to a freshly taken selfie of the two of them. For a while, the super topic was full of thriving scenes, and many CP fans spontaneously forwarded the lottery and it was very lively.

The forums that were originally engaged in a secret fight with each other were suddenly silenced by the shock.

[Title: Stop hitting the homepage! He Yan posted a photo of the two of them on Weibo, and Zhu Shengting even retweeted it...]

You can see it for yourself, no need to say more [attached Weibo link]

[1L: Damn it, this brother-in-law and sister-in-law act is really going to make me mad! ]

[2L: I told Tingsi and Yansi to stop arguing. You two are already posting wedding invitations for peace. If you keep arguing, I'm really afraid you two gays will post bed photos!]

[3L: Then please stop arguing. I want to see the bed photos. Thank you!]

[4L: Great! Now, let's have a second debate. Is it Sister Yan who's the one ...

[5L: Haha, the two of them are like a tortoise and a mung bean, a half catty and eight ounces. The expressions on their faces in that photo of them together seem to be saying, "So what if they're just showing off their affection?" It's killing me.]

[6L: I'm saying that the sexual harassment trending on Yansi's dance today is too stupid. There are only two possible outcomes. One is that Meng Chuan will come out to sue the haters Shengyan and give out candy and dumplings. The other is that Meng Chuan will just remove the trending search without saying anything and drag Shengyan out to give out candy and dumplings. No matter which outcome, it leads to Shengyan giving out candy. This move is really stupid. It's a direct benefit for CP fans.]

[7L: Actually, this step is very obvious. When has Dream Chuan ever been so efficient in speaking out and accusing the haters? Apart from the last sasaeng incident, Dream Chuan, who always likes to play dead, of course has to drag my CP Shui Lingling out to clean up the mess for the fans. But that's great, let's have a feast and criticize Meimei. Thanks to that fat guy Xu Zhi this time.]

8L: I was so happy buying shares for this couple before. They still have about half a year left in business, and there will be a lot of promotional activities to come. I can also see the fan club members' Reuters. Just thinking about it is so cool... Luckily, I am also a Shengyan fan.

9L: I just took a closer look at these two people's selfies. They're wearing the same school uniforms as in the final photos. It's likely taken on the day of the final photos. They look so good together! I'm really impressed. I want to see the Grain Rain coming right now. Can the director and the main creators not get tired or rest?

[10L: Help! I just realized this is the first public selfie of us together at the banquet! This is so cool! Thinking about all the photos we'll have in the future makes me feel like I'm going to die.]

[11L: Friends, don't take out loans yet. What if you can't pay back the feast?! Enjoy the wine today, and we'll talk about being gay later! (Haha, I won't tell you, I'm secretly looking forward to it too)]

[12L: I'm really a bit dazed right now. Just half a month ago, we were the most hated couple in the entertainment industry. In just a few days, we went from hating each other to being gay. This is really like riding a rocket at 800 times the speed! Can we continue to sell homosexuality at this rate? Okay.]

[13L: Have you, Tingsi Yansi, calmed down now? This time, they've really been slapped in the face by their own master. If they can continue to curse, just cover your ears and run!]

[14L: Hmm... Tingsi and Yansi stopped cursing at each other. They've really lost their defense and started cursing themselves. It's hard to judge. They're a bunch of lunatics. Please see the screenshots I posted for yourselves.]

——[Image 1: @H贺餐Y, what the hell are you trying to do? Your fans have worked so hard to create a nice and refined character for you, and you're just fucking paying me for it. I'm really sick of it. You just love to lick people who look down on you, right? You might as well lick that fat guy Xu Zhi. At least he can give you great resources.]

——[Image 2: Husband, you are really dead @祝盛庭_zst, dead as hell [light candle] What’s so good about that guy with the white eyes? Let me ask you, we don’t mind your poor acting skills all day long to do data for you. We even cleared your name overnight after being smeared with mud. Now you are just obsessed with selling this low-level homosexuality, so goodbye, you don’t need me to spend money anyway]

[15L: Her mouth is so dirty I thought she drank toilet water. If you act like such a vicious fan, you will fail in everything you do.]

[16L: Why are they still cursing others to death and spreading rumors? Do they really like to take the blame? So disgusting. Good luck to Shengyan, and may the collaboration drama be a hit! These people are so pissed off!]

He Yan and Zhu Shengting are not the type to actively read online public opinion. Unless the matter is very popular or someone sends it to them, they will not search at all, which can also save a lot of unnecessary troubles.

After lunch break, the crew started working. The afternoon task was mainly to shoot the first encounter between several single people and the protagonist.

Zhu Shengting's solo shots mainly revolve around him delivering goods and helping his mother at the vegetable market.

Li Congye's mother in the play is named Lu Xue, and is played by Nie Xi, a veteran actor with decades of acting experience.

Zhu Shengting and Nie Xi's partnership went very smoothly. The other one got into the role very quickly and his performance was natural and seamless. He even had one or two moments where he saw some of Song Zhimeng's features in Lu Xue, played by Nie Xi.

Perhaps all mothers who love their children are similar.

On the other hand, the solo plot that He Yan wanted to shoot was mainly about Lin Guyu going home alone to secretly treat his wounds, not wanting his parents to find out.

However, Lin Boheng and Lou Zhi were always very busy. They were away on business almost all the time when Lin Guyu returned home, so he had no chance to notice. No one would specially worry about him, a top student who seemed to be easy to take care of in the eyes of outsiders. The only thing he received was a regular monthly payment of living expenses, which was not small for a high school student.

Lin Guyu cleaned the wound skillfully by himself. He looked at his thin and pale face in the mirror and quickly lowered his head. He was thankful that the wound on his face was clean and not scary. Otherwise, when he returned to school, he would receive extra comfort from their class teacher Xu Huawen. He was not good at dealing with such "gentle" occasions.

It's like putting a piece of ice that has been frozen for a long time in the morning sun. No matter how gentle the sunlight is, it will turn into a pool of water before afternoon falls and finally evaporate into the air.

Thinking of this, Lin Guyu stared at the bruise on his ankle, recalling the tone of Xu Huawen's voice every time he carefully asked him if he needed help, and began to feel at a loss and wanted to cry again.

He Yan's tearful eyes in the monitor were like the puddles formed on the bumpy road after an autumn rain. A fallen leaf, a drop of dew, or a flying insect would disturb such a small pool of water.

Zhu Shengting stared at the screen motionlessly, watching He Yan's tears drip from his eyes, and with a plop, they fell on his bruised knees, touched the skin of his calves, slid down to the meridians of his feet, and finally merged back into the texture of his skin.

"Does it hurt to watch this?" Xia Hui, who had been looking at the screen, suddenly turned around and spoke to Zhu Shengting.

Zhu Shengting readily continued, "Who do you want to ask?"

Xia Hui didn't bother asking what the "who" in this sentence meant, but continued meaningfully, "Li Cong."

"Not now, but in the future." Zhu Shengting answered according to the script.

Xia Hui expected this answer, but she didn't give up. "What about Zhu Shengting?"

Zhu Shengting was silent for a while, then he smiled at Xia Hui and said, "Director Xia, this question seems meaningless."

"How can it be meaningless?" Xia Hui raised her eyebrows.

Zhu Shengting turned his face back towards the monitor, leaned forward, and placed his arms on his thighs, his hands crossed. He looked back at the vulnerable "Lin Guyu" on the screen. "Because it's hard not to feel sorry for these eyes, isn't it?"

Xia Hui was slightly startled, and followed Zhu Shengting's gaze back to look at He Yan who was still performing.

At this time, Lin Guyu could no longer hold back and curled up in a corner beside the bed, hugging her knees and crying.

It was not until the scene was cut and He Yan slowly calmed down that Xia Hui realized that Zhu Shengting had not directly answered her question in the end.

Are you not sad, or are you afraid to answer?

Xia Hui laughed.
