Chapter 132 Top Streamer [VIP]

“…No.” Mu Xingye forced himself to shake his head.

We'll be filming again tomorrow. When the camera turns on, every detail in the room will be exposed to the people behind the camera and to the thousands of viewers after the broadcast.

He himself didn't care, but he didn't want to leave any possibility for Qingran to be judged by others.

The voices around him were tempting.

"The cameras and audio equipment were all turned off, and there were only the two of us on the entire first floor."

"And there are no cameras in the bathroom."

Don't you want me?

As the person speaking asked the question, they rubbed against his ear, kissing and biting it.

Mu Xing's ambition was like a pounding drum. The oysters he had eaten two hours earlier were taking effect, and the combined attack from both inside and outside made his body temperature frighteningly high.

“…Babe, no.” He said, clinging to the last shred of his sanity.

Qingran stopped kissing and biting, and instead slowly rubbed her cheek against his ear, the intense heat seeming to melt the skin on his cheek.

"But I want you."

"..."

A moment later, a small halo of light appeared in the dimly lit room.

The dim light shone through the frosted glass, casting shadowy patterns on the room amidst the pattering of water.

In the dim light, one could vaguely see that the large bed in the center was empty, with two blankets haphazardly thrown back, almost suggesting the urgency with which the owner had left.

Next to the large bed is a floor-to-ceiling window with blackout curtains tightly closed.

The bright moon hangs high outside the window, the night is perfect, and the gentle sea breeze stirs up the tranquil light and shadow in the pool.

*

The next day, Qingran and Muxingye got up at eight o'clock in the morning.

There was nothing to tidy up in the room. After the two finished washing up, Qingran prepared to turn on the camera.

Mu Xingye held him and kissed him passionately for a while, then let go after checking that no marks were left on his body.

Qingran pursed her numb lips, walked to the wall, turned on the machine, and waved to the camera that had started working.

"Good morning."

He stepped aside to let everyone see the person making the bed behind him, while explaining without changing his expression.

"I went to bed early last night and woke up early today. We're planning to go out for breakfast in a bit and buy some food for everyone."

Then she asked the camera, "Has anyone woken up yet, Teacher Mei?"

The camera wobbles from side to side, indicating a negative response.

After making the bed, Mu Xingye walked over, casually said "Good morning" to the camera, and then pushed Qingran out.

"Let's go, just the two of us."

After the two went out, the cameraman quickly followed them out.

Emerald Island boasts a pleasant climate, with the highest temperature never exceeding 30 degrees Celsius throughout the year, making it one of the world's top-ranked holiday destinations.

Today, the perceived temperature is only slightly over 20 degrees Celsius. The sky is clear and cloudless, making it a very comfortable temperature.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, the scent that fills your nostrils carries the aroma of sea breeze and sunshine, brightening your mood just like the clear weather on Emerald Island.

After leaving the villa hotel, the two strolled along the street lined with palm trees.

Qingran: "Have you ever been to Emerald Island?"

Mu Xingye: "I came here twice with friends during my university years."

Qingran: "Ted and Ben?"

Mu Xingye nodded: "It's the two of them."

Qingran: "Do you have any local specialty food recommendations?"

Mu Xingye shook his head this time: "We didn't come to the south coast."

Seeing that Qingran seemed quite curious, he said a few more words.

"The first time I came was when I was invited to participate in a music festival, and I left after the event. The second time, Ben arranged the entire itinerary. He is used to planning these things in advance. Ted and I were only responsible for eating, drinking and having fun. We were not very clear about the attractions, food, and photo spots."

Qingran was amused by his straightforward words, and her smile looked as beautiful as if it were filtered with a golden light in the sunlight.

Mu Xingye turned his head and stared at him in a daze. The camera in front caught this look and immediately slowed down the backward movement to zoom in.

With such a large person carrying a camera approaching so close, it was impossible for Mu Xingye not to notice them.

The man glanced at the camera lens with a faint look. His long, narrow, dark blue eyes, combined with his tall, slender figure with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, gave off an invisible sense of pressure.

He glanced at the camera and then turned his attention back to talking to the people around him.

"You want to go to the East Coast? There are a lot of fun things to do there. If you want to go, I'll have Ben send you that travel guide from back then. He shouldn't have deleted it."

Just as I was about to reach for my phone, I remembered that I hadn't brought my personal phone with me when I left home.

Qingran grabbed his forearm: "I was just asking."

Mu Xingye habitually reached out and took his hand, but when he caught a glimpse of the camera in front of him, he glanced at the lens again and silently let go.

That glance carried a hint of emotion.

Since Mu Xingye didn't know which breakfast places were good in the area, the two randomly selected a local to recommend some food.

Mu Xingye has studied abroad, and Qingran has a good memory, so communication is not a problem for them.

Distinguishing between locals and outsiders is quite simple: those wearing clothing with Emerald Isle folk elements and possessing a healthy tan are most likely locals.

The two were lucky enough to ask a local right away.

The other person was a young girl who looked no more than twenty years old, with white teeth, slightly dark skin, and two dark braids hanging down in front of her chest.

When she was stopped by two men with cameras and asked for directions, she wasn't scared. She first looked at Qing Ran's exquisite face, then at the handsome and imposing Mu Xingye, and hesitated.

"Mu?"

Caught off guard by being recognized, Mu Xingye: "?"

The little girl's eyes lit up: "You're Mu, the singer, right? I saw you two years ago when you came to Emerald Island for the music festival!"

Because the man was exceptionally handsome, she was deeply impressed and even went online to search for a lot of information about him.

"You're here on Emerald Island for tourism, right? I know many delicious and affordable restaurants, and I can tell you about them."

The little girl eagerly pulled out her phone: "In exchange, can we take a picture together?"

In the end, Qingran and Muxingye got their wish and found a local specialty restaurant near the hotel recommended by the locals.

The price was that Mu Xingye contributed a few group photos, which were taken by Qingran.

Then the cameraman also captured the scene of Qingran taking photos for them.

On the way to his destination, Mu Xingye muttered to himself, "This is the first time I've ever taken a photo with a fan."

Qingran was surprised: "You never took photos with fans before?"

Mu Xingye: "Yeah, even autographs are rare."

Qingran joked, "No wonder there are always rumors online that you have a bad temper and are difficult to get along with. So that's why."

If this conversation were broadcast, Mu Xingye would definitely be criticized again.

Qingran had no choice but to ask, "Let's interview Teacher Mu. What are his thoughts?" If the answer wasn't good, she would have the production team cut this part.

Mu Xingye: "Everyone can just listen to the music. There's no need to transfer your love for music onto me."

Moreover, getting autographs and taking photos is a waste of time.

"Do you think I should interact more with my fans?" he asked Qingran.

He knew that Qingran would occasionally chat with fans who followed her schedule, and signing autographs and taking photos with them were just the basics.

Qingran: "Teacher Mu's idea is certainly not wrong, but if you are willing to interact more with your fans when you are not busy, they will be very happy."

Mu Xingye seemed to be deep in thought.

He still couldn't understand why fans liked him more than the music itself, but he was willing to try to do what Qingran said.

After the show aired, the comments section was flooded with messages from Mu Xingye's fans, all telling him to listen to his wife.

They've accepted this sister-in-law!

But that's a story for later. Getting back to the point, the two walked and talked, found the breakfast shop recommended by the young girl, had breakfast, and then returned to the hotel with the packed food.

By this time, Teacher Mei and the others had also gotten up, and you could hear them urging each other on as they rushed to put on their makeup in the living room downstairs.

Qingran took out the phone provided by the program team; it was just past 8:40.

Ms. Mei, who had finished tidying up first, came down the stairs with a thud.

Seeing the two people standing in the living room, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You're up? I was just about to go and wake you up."

"Good morning, Teacher Mei. Would you like something to eat? We bought some food on our way back," Qingran asked her.

Upon hearing this, Teacher Mei was surprised: "You went out for breakfast? No way, I'm going to get up early tomorrow to go out and have some fresh food too."

"Of course I have to eat breakfast. I get hungry if I skip a meal, and I can't stand being hungry."

She followed the two into the dining room, and after sitting down, she started taking things out of the packaging without any hesitation, while shouting at the top of her lungs, "Sihong, Yingying! Come down and eat something delicious!"

"Coming!" came the reply from upstairs.

"Hurry up, it'll get cold!"

After urging the two procrastinators again, Teacher Mei began to enjoy her meal with peace of mind. As she looked back, she caught sight of the two playing by the window—using their hands to pretend to be animals and biting each other.

Something flashed through my mind quickly.

I can't remember.

Well, what's done is done, let's eat first.

An unexpected discovery during her shopping trip made Teacher Mei realize what that sense of déjà vu meant.

The incident started like this.

As time passed and the sun climbed higher, the group, feeling hot from shopping, spotted an ice cream shop on the street. Their mouths watered, and each of them went inside and picked out their favorite flavor.

Ms. Mei clearly remembers that Aozaki wanted chocolate flavor, while Hoshino wanted coffee flavor.

After a while, I turned my head and saw that the colors of the ice cream in the two people's hands had been reversed.

Brownish-black turned into brownish-brown, and brownish-brown turned into brownish-black.

Although they are both brownish and somewhat similar, she is not so old and blind that she cannot see the difference.

Teacher Mei suddenly remembered, "Huh, didn't someone tell me that Qingran and Xingye were dating?"

He opened his mouth to ask a question, but then remembered there were cameras around, so he swallowed his question back.

"Is it bitter?" Mu Xingye asked Qingran from the back of the group after she ate it.

Qingran carefully tasted the flavor that spread on her tongue: "It's alright, not as bitter as coffee, it's acceptable."

However, he still prefers the chocolate flavor.

The two switched the ice cream back, and Mu Xingye reminded the cameraman behind them, "Remember to cut out this conversation."

If the dialogue is cut out and something is accidentally revealed on screen, you can't blame the production team, right?

Sister Lin has reached an agreement with both of their agents; the bottom line is that their relationship cannot be openly revealed.

Besides, there's no need to deliberately emphasize that the two are not familiar with each other or have a bad relationship. Just edit normally, and all questions can be attributed to their friendship.

"Holiday" was recorded and broadcast simultaneously. Because editing and post-production take time, there is inevitably a lag between playback and recording.

When Qingran and her group arrived at their last country, the program's pilot episode had just been released on a domestic platform.

The recording of Qingran and others was coming to an end, and the first episode had just finished airing on the platform.

But none of this could stop the explosive popularity of "Holiday"!

Li Ying is a top star in the variety show industry with a stable group of fans who enjoy watching variety shows. Mei Gui is a living fossil in the film and television industry with an astonishingly large following. Liu Sihong has always been active in the public eye and also has a group of loyal fans.

Not to mention Qingran and Muxingye, two characters who naturally attract attention and generate buzz.

After the first episode aired, the two remained incredibly popular, consistently topping the trending search list.

After meticulously analyzing every frame of the two characters' scenes in the first episode, a dedicated fan posted a long Weibo post, providing a ready-made guide for fans who couldn't quite grasp the romantic moments between the two.

The content on Weibo can be roughly divided into three parts:

First, the two of them probably did have a fight before the recording started and didn't make up; second, don't worry, they made up the night they landed; third, "the Milky Way is dyed red" is true, so feel free to ship them!

"Thanks, expert. I wouldn't understand this candy without your help."

"I really want to know why the two of them argued. Could it be that Hoshino wants to go public, but Aozaki doesn't agree?"

"I'm different. I want to know how they made up!"

"Upstairs +1, they were a little awkward before bed, but woke up as a lovey-dovey couple. What happened last night? It's so hard to guess [smoking a cigarette]~"

"And did you guys notice that Qingran's lips were red when he turned on the camera the next morning? I cropped his normal lip color from the previous day and his lip color after breakfast, and the contrast is very obvious [images][images][images], what happened? It's so hard to guess~"

"And then there was the time you were shopping and trying each other's ice cream. Don't think we didn't see what you were doing sneakily in the background just because the camera wasn't on you [winking emoji]~"

"So this episode is just full of sweet moments, I'm going to go watch it again!"

While the online community is enthusiastically shipping couples, the five members of the "Holiday" program crew, who have become close friends by eating and living together, are now saying goodbye to each other overseas.

The emotional Li Ying and Teacher Mei cried their eyes out. Liu Sihong comforted one and then the other, and while comforting them, she herself wanted to cry. The three of them simply hugged each other and cried together.

"Teacher Mei, Sister Sihong, Sister Ying, don't be sad. How about we get together when we go back to China?" Qingran took on the responsibility of comforting them.

He had just finished his preparatory work when Mu Xingye took over.

Teacher Mei wiped away her tears and nodded: "Qingran, shouldn't you be joining a film crew after returning to China? We'll go to the set to visit you then."

Qingran pulled out a wet tissue to wipe her face and said gently, "You must come, you can't stand me up."

Li Ying: "Don't worry, hiccup~ We'll definitely go, hiccup~"

"Oh dear, what's going on? Hiccup~ I can't stop hiccuping~"

The continuous hiccups washed away any sadness, and the group exchanged glances and burst out laughing.

In the small interview room, the production team asked Mu Xingye, "As your journey is about to end, what have you gained along the way, Mr. Mu?"

Mu Xingye pondered, "Friends and feelings."

Mu Xingye knew himself well; he wasn't someone who liked making friends. If it weren't for the production team, he probably would never have become friends with Teacher Mei and the others in his life. Even if they met many times, they would at most be nodding acquaintances.

"Does 'feelings' refer to your friendships with everyone?" a staff member asked, trying to clarify.

Mu Xingye raised an eyebrow: "Friendship is also a kind of emotion."

The feelings he spoke of naturally included friendship, but it must be admitted that he was referring more to his relationship with Qingran.

After reconciling, Mu Xingye carefully examined his relationship with Qingran.

While separation is undoubtedly difficult, in the long run, it is actually a good thing.

This made him more composed and appreciative of the relationship, and it also convinced him that the little things he felt from Qingran during their time together were not just illusions.

Mu Xingye was the last person to be interviewed. Once his interview was finished, the recording of "Holiday" would be completely over.

The man came out of the room. In the cozy open-air courtyard outside, Teacher Mei and others were excitedly discussing their schedule and when to visit Qingran on set. There was no trace of the sobbing he had shown when he handed her a tissue before leaving.

what happens?

He went over to ask why, and Qingran told him that everyone was preparing to return to China and had a get-together first.

Mu Xingye then asked, "When will you join the crew?"

Qingran: "The crew will start filming at the end of April, so we need to do makeup tests and script readings at least half a month in advance."

Today is the last day of March. I'm going back to China tomorrow, which means I only have about four or five days to rest.

Mu Xingye casually mentioned, "What a coincidence, my mother will also be in China next month. She was abroad discussing business before."

"You want me to go home with you to meet your parents?" Qingran bluntly pointed out, then turned away with a smile: "It's too early, let's talk about it another time."

Mu Xingye, who had only recently felt more composed, said: "..."

There's no room for composure.
