Chapter 22 Top-Tier Actor (Gong) x Washed-Up Movie Emperor (Shou)



Li Yuheng stopped in his tracks, turned around abruptly, and exclaimed in shock, "Jiang Wei! What kind of garbage is in your head?!"

He strode back, poked Jiang Wei's shoulder with his finger, and declared righteously, "Me! Li Yuheng! Top star! Do I need to bloom? I am the most dazzling flower in the entertainment industry!"

Jiang Wei was so shocked by his shameless remark that he took a step back, his lips twitching: "...Have you no shame?"

Li Yuheng snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards Jiang Wei's room: "I'm too lazy to waste words with you. Pay me for my mental distress."

Jiang Wei was taken aback, then realized what was happening: "Hey! What are you doing!"

Li Yuheng had already pushed open the door to her room and headed straight for the bedside table, Jiang Wei's snack drawer.

He pulled open the bag, precisely grabbed a handful of lollipops, and stuffed them into his pocket.

Jiang Wei rushed over and grabbed, shouting, "Li Yuheng! Are you a bandit?! You're robbing me again!"

Li Yuheng nimbly dodged her claws, then casually grabbed two more bags of potato chips, raising an eyebrow and saying, "What? Cousin can't even part with a few candies?"

Jiang Wei stomped his feet in anger: "That's my limited edition Coca-Cola flavor! Give it back!"

Li Yuheng had already retreated to the doorway, tore open a lollipop and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling, "Too late, the stolen goods have been destroyed."

After saying that, he deliberately crunched the candy loudly.

Jiang Wei grabbed a pillow and threw it at him: "Get out!!!"

Li Yuheng laughed loudly as he slipped out the door, only to bump into Zhao Wen, who was coming out of the door.

Zhao Wen stared in disbelief at the snacks he was holding and the candy in his mouth: "Teacher Li...?"

Li Yuheng nodded seriously without changing his expression: "Good evening, Mr. Zhao. I'm here to buy some goods from my cousin."

After saying that, he turned around gracefully, leaving Zhao Wen looking completely bewildered.

He strolled back to his room, threw his "trophies" on the bed, and went to the bathroom.

When Li Yuheng returned from the shower, her hair was still dripping wet.

He casually grabbed a towel, draped it over his head, and sat cross-legged on the bed to start unpacking potato chips.

"Click, click."

On the left side of the bed, "Li Yuheng A" was chewing potato chips noisily, and a towel was tied into a bow on his head.

The person on the right side of the bed, "Li Yuheng b," was chewing on a lollipop and had a towel wrapped around their neck three times: "Keep your noise down, you're disturbing my contemplation of life."

"Thinking my ass." "A" rolled her eyes and stuffed a handful of potato chips into her mouth. "You just don't dare to admit it."

"b" shoved the lollipop from his left cheek to his right: "Admit what? I am the dignified Crown Prince of the Underworld—"

"—I've fallen for a male cat." "A" added coldly.

Li Yuheng, who was in the middle of the bed, suddenly choked on potato chips and coughed violently.

"Nonsense!"

"b" jumped up suddenly, pointing the lollipop stick at "A," and exclaimed, "That's called brotherhood! It's the bond we formed when we stole pancakes together as kids!"

"A" sneered: "Brotherly love, you steal someone's beer? Brotherly love, you stare at someone's mole? Brotherly love, you—"

"Shut up!!!"

"b" lunges forward to cover "A's" mouth, and the two wrestle on the bed.

The real Li Yuheng suddenly sprang out of bed, spun around three times on the cold floor with his bare feet, and finally buried his face in the pillow and let out a muffled roar: "Damn it!"

Li Yuheng's face suddenly turned cold, and he abruptly stood up from the bed.

He walked barefoot to the window, sat down on the windowsill, and struck a pose like a melancholy male protagonist.

Moonlight streamed through the glass, casting a silvery glow on him.

He silently took out another lollipop, unwrapped it, and put it in his mouth.

He managed to pull the lollipop out like a cigarette.

He tilted his head slightly, squinted his eyes, and gently sucked on the candy ball with the tip of his tongue.

"Tsk."

The night outside the window was deep, but his expression was even more somber than the darkness.

"A" and "b" had stopped fighting and were squatting on either side of him, mimicking his posture, slurping candy together in a melancholy manner.

“A”: “Admit it.”

“b”: “...Shut up.”

Li Yuheng ignored them, silently and intently sucking on the lollipop.

I slurped it all night.

There are 36 lollipops in total.

As the sky began to lighten and the first rays of dawn pierced through the clouds, they fell on his eyelashes.

He finally moved his stiff neck, slowly exhaled a non-existent smoke ring, and spoke in a hoarse voice:

"……ha."

He admitted it.

He likes simplicity and openness.

I've fallen in love with my childhood best friend, with whom I used to steal pancakes.

It's a male cat.

Li Yuheng sighed, jumped down from the windowsill, and casually flicked the last lollipop stick into the trash can.

He picked up his phone and dialed the company's legal department: "Hey, Lao Zhang, has the evidence against Gong Yu for intentional injury been secured?"

A steady male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Young Master Li, all the evidence has been collected. The stepping stone showed obvious signs of tampering, the surveillance footage showed Gong Yu's agent tampering with it, and with that recording, the chain of evidence is very complete."

Li Yuheng narrowed his eyes: "Sue me to death."

"Understood. In addition, I understand that Xingyao Entertainment, the management company to which Gong Yu belongs, has cut off contact with him, and the company's boss, Ying Youshi, is trying to distance himself from Gong Yu."

Li Yuheng sneered: "Trying to distance himself? Does he think he can get away with it like that? Put the evidence of Ying Youshi and Gong Yu's affair online as well, and let this couple, who are friends despite their age difference, become famous together."

Whether it's the old 0 or the young 1, none of them can escape.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone: "Young Master Li, Ying Youshi has powerful backers; taking action against him might..."

"Capital?" Li Yuheng scoffed. "Do I lack that little bit of capital?"

"……Understood."

Li Yuheng decided not to sleep anymore, brushed her teeth, got up, and started getting dressed.

He stood in front of the mirror, took out all the clothes in his wardrobe and tried them on, finally choosing a black shirt with a deep V-neck that opened up to his chest, revealing the faint outline of his collarbone.

"A" pointed and commented from the side: "Isn't that too flashy?"

“b” stroked his chin: “Not dignified enough.”

Li Yuheng rolled her eyes and changed into a plain white t-shirt, simple and refreshing.

“A”: “Too plain.”

“b”: “Like going to the farmers market”.

Li Yuheng threw the clothes down in frustration: "Shut up! I'll choose for myself!"

In the end, he chose a dark green silk shirt, which was neither too flashy nor lacking in style.

He scratched his hair in front of the mirror, sprayed some perfume, and even, for the first time ever, tidied his eyebrows.

0090 finally couldn't hold back any longer: [Your Highness, are you going to walk the red carpet?]

Li Yuheng: "What do you know? This is called image management."

[But it's 6 a.m. now, and the show doesn't start recording until 9 a.m....]

Li Yuheng ignored him and continued to experiment with his own style.

He practiced smiling a few times in front of the mirror, but felt it looked too fake, so he finally decided to stick to his usual arrogant demeanor.

"Be natural, be natural..." he muttered to himself in the mirror.

"A" and "b" squatted in the corner, looking at him speechlessly.

After struggling until 7:30, Li Yuheng was finally satisfied.

He took a deep breath, pushed open the door to go downstairs, and bumped into You Keke, who had just gotten up.

Yu Keke, still half-asleep, widened her eyes the moment she saw Li Yuheng: "Teacher Li? You look so handsome today!"

Li Yuheng's lips curled slightly: "Yes, I know."
