When Lu Wenxing came back from outside, Wen Zheng was already sitting on the sofa reading documents.
"Brother, you're here so early today?"
On a normal working day, Wen Zheng would not get home until after six o'clock, so it was quite rare to see Wen Zheng at four o'clock in the afternoon.
"There is a new project next week that requires overtime, so give employees an extra half day off."
"So you won't go to the company on weekends?"
"Well, rest for two and a half days."
Lu Wenxing was a little envious. He and Gu Yanshen hadn't seen each other for almost a month since they confirmed their relationship.
The two of them always have different schedules, and they don't have a break for ten days or half a month when they are busy. Although Wen Zheng is meticulous, strict and picky in the company, it is common for employees to take turns to take leave when there are few projects.
"You haven't taken on any new dramas recently?"
"There's a movie that's still being discussed." Lu Wenxing took two bottles of juice from the refrigerator and handed one to Wen Zheng.
"Cheng Xuan, do you still remember?"
"Yeah." Thinking of Cheng Xuan's shy personality, Wen Zheng asked, "Is he okay?"
"He's very good. You would never have thought that the copyright of the book he wrote has been sold." Lu Wenxing was happy for Cheng Xuan.
At first, Mr. Cheng wanted to support his brother's novel, so he asked the copyright editor to contact Cheng Xuan, but he concealed the fact that he had contacted the copyright editor privately.
The copyright editor only intended to do Mr. Cheng a small favor and give Cheng Xuan a chance to publish, but Cheng Xuan's new work gave him too big a surprise. After reading it, the copyright editor directly contacted the cooperating film and television companies.
Because the subject matter of Cheng Xuan's novel this time is relatively unpopular, it stands out more compared to the popular sports lottery.
"The new drama you are taking on is Cheng Xuan's novel."
"right."
Wen Zheng's face turned strange. Lu Wenxing had mentioned Cheng Xuan's novel to him before, and he checked it online. Generally speaking, it was a melodramatic BL novel, and it felt like even a movie adaptation would not pass the review.
“There’s been a big shift in his style.”
Lu Wenxing guessed what Wen Zheng was thinking by looking at his expression.
"The protagonist used to be a ski racer."
He was framed by competitors and insiders, who accused him of taking doping before the competition. He was disqualified from receiving awards and was blacklisted from all competitions for four years. The frustrated protagonist encountered an avalanche while traveling and nearly died. After waking up in the hospital, he lost his memory, and he also forgot the unpleasant things and his beloved skiing.
By chance, he met the owner of the ski resort, the heroine, and was invited to play. Seeing the heroine skiing so heroically, the hero had a yearning in his heart. But no matter how the heroine encouraged him, he refused to put on his ski clothes and try it himself. Everyone thought he didn't know how to ski.
Until one day, the hero was finally willing to put on his ski suit again, but he refused to move with his snowboard. At this time, a boy of four or five years old was sliding down from the top of the snow mountain alone, and was about to run out of the slope. The hero instinctively rushed out with his snowboard, and when he reacted, the child had been rescued by him.
All the tourists at the ski resort looked at him, applauded him, and the heroine was also amazed by him. The hero suddenly recovered his memory, remembering the embarrassment of being kicked off the podium and the ridicule he could not escape wherever he went. The hero's friends planned to help him overcome the obstacles and return to the ski resort.
After listening to Lu Wenxing's introduction to the story, Wen Zheng was slightly surprised. It sounded like a good story. It just depended on how the director and screenwriter changed it.
Wen Zheng is still very satisfied with this movie. Lu Wenxing took on two gay dramas, both of which attracted a lot of CP fans, and his acting range has become narrower.
"Cheng Xuan is willing to participate in the film adaptation, and I will be the male lead. But..."
"Any concerns?"
Lu Wenxing nodded and said, "I like this script very much, but I don't know how to ski."
Shooting some difficult and professional actions requires professional skiers to complete, but Lu Wenxing doesn't even know basic skiing. Even if his acting skills are good, he doesn't know how to do it, so the shots he takes are not ideal.
Wen Zheng screwed the cap on the bottle and asked, "Want to try it?"
"What?"
"Skiing." Wen Zheng looked away from the phone screen, "I can take you to the ski resort on the weekend."
Lu Wenxing's eyes lit up and he nodded.
"I want to go."
"Wait until mom and dad come back and ask them if they want to go with us."
At the dinner table, Wen Zheng told Ji Yuan about his plan to go skiing tomorrow. Ji Yuan was also tempted. Wen Huaihe thought for a few seconds and then agreed.
"Book early, as many people travel on weekends."
"I have something to say."
The three people's eyes fell on Lu Wenxing.
"I'm in love."
Lu Wenxing did not intend to hide it from his family. He had told Wen Zheng that if they were in a relationship, he would definitely not hide it. It was just that everyone was busy during this period and he did not find the right time to tell them.
"How long have you been together? What do you look like? Do you have a photo? What's your occupation? How many people are there in your family?"
Ji Yuan's series of questions made Lu Wenxing smile. "We've been together for a month. He's very handsome..."
Wen Zheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked him.
"How long have you been together?"
"One month." Lu Wenxing didn't know why Wen Zheng reacted so strongly, "What's wrong?"
"fine."
Looking at Wen Zheng's unpleasant face, Lu Wenxing didn't think that was okay.
Ji Yuan also felt that Wen Zheng was overreacting. She exchanged glances with Wen Huaihe and passed over the topic. "Xingxing, you haven't told me...what job does he do?"
"Mom, you know him. We even had dinner together." Lu Wenxing replied with a smile, "He's an artist like me."
Ji Yuan immediately thought of the artist she had dined with, "Actor Gu Yanshen?"
Wen Zheng snorted lightly, his face full of unhappiness. He thought the two had been together for a long time, but it turned out that they had just confirmed their relationship. Gu Yanshen's behavior made him misunderstand several times.
He also assisted Gu Yanshen without realizing it.
Wen Zheng felt a little unhappy when he thought about how he pushed Xingxing out with his own hands. Gu Yanshen didn't treat him as an outsider, and he was busy investigating the replacement of the recommended student, taking the blame for himself...
Even so, Wen Zheng knew that Gu Yanshen would not take credit for it, and his love and devotion for Lu Wenxing could not be faked.
After dinner, they each went back to their rooms to pack their equipment and set off early the next morning.
Gu Yanshen's video call rang for a long time. When Lu Wenxing came over, he had already hung up, so he called back.
"You haven't answered the phone for so long, what are you doing?"
"Pack your luggage." Lu Wenxing clicked the rear camera.
"Don't you have anything planned for the weekend?"
"No, my brother wants to take me skiing." Lu Wenxing's tone was full of excitement.
“Where to go skiing?”
"E City."
Lu Wenxing shared the strategy with him, "Teacher Gu, you've worked hard on the filming. I'll take a good rest for you on the weekend."
Gu Yanshen: "..."
"Okay, you clean it up."
Lu Wenxing felt strange. Usually, he and Gu Yanshen would chat via video for at least half an hour, but today, he hung up after just three sentences.
"I have to get on a plane. I'll contact you tomorrow."
"good."
It turned out to be in the airport lounge.
Wen Zheng in the next room packed up his equipment and called his friend Xu Weiyao.
"What's going on so late at night?"
"Did you know that someone booked the entire venue in your Favrely at the beginning of the month?"
"I know." Xu Weiyao replied: "Xiao Dong said that you invited clients to dinner that day, but someone reserved the place."
"Yes, what happened that day was kept secret by the employees in your store."
Xu Weiyao found it strange that Wen Zheng even managed their store. "If we book the entire store, unless there is a customer demand, there won't be too many people in the store. It's more private. Why are you asking this?"
"Xingxing has been to your store."
When Lu Wenxing was mentioned, Xu Weiyao understood. Lu Wenxing had a special status, and his schedule could not be disclosed casually. Booking a restaurant for dinner was definitely not a small matter. "Who did he book a restaurant for dinner?"
"Gu Yanshen."
Xu Weiyao laughed, "Oh, there really is something going on between the two of them."
"Don't worry, our Fufree employees don't do the work of paparazzi."
"Xiao Chen said you won't be going to the company this weekend?"
"I'm going skiing with Xingxing and my parents tomorrow."
"I want to go too!" Xu Weiyao became interested in skiing when he heard about it. "I'll call Wei You and the others to go with us."
"Whatever you want."
The next morning, Xu Weiyao and three friends appeared at the gate of the Wen family.
"Hey, good morning, Star."
"Good morning."
Ji Yuan and Wen Huaihe came down from the second floor. Xu Weiyao put away his nonchalant look and greeted them obediently.
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
"Xiao Yao is here so early."
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
"Hello."
They went to City E by plane. They set out in the morning, had lunch on the plane, and arrived at their destination at around 2:00 p.m.
Wen Zheng booked a room in advance, and several people pushed their suitcases back to their rooms. The hostel at the ski resort was a wooden house, equipped with hot springs and a small bar for entertainment.
Wen Huaihe hadn't skied for a long time. After putting down his things, he excitedly put on his new ski suit, stepped on his skis, and couldn't wait to follow other tourists to slide down the mountain.
Ji Yuan knew that Lu Wenxing didn’t know how to ski, so she thought that Wen Zheng had finally come out for a chance, so she wanted him and his friends to have a good time.
But Wen Zheng was not interested in skiing. "Mom, you and Dad can go. I'll accompany Xingxing. You can't hold him."
Ji Yuan thought so too. Lu Wenxing was tall and had long legs. Even if Ji Yuan stood beside him, she would only reach up to Lu Wenxing's shoulders. "Then you take good care of Xingxing and don't let him fall."
"Um."
After Wen Zheng agreed, Ji Yuan also slid down. Even wearing a ski suit, Ji Yuan's slim figure could not be concealed. She slid down from the top of the mountain holding the ski poles at a very fast speed, riding on the wind, and looked particularly cool.
Lu Wenxing was wrapped tightly by Wen Zheng, wearing a helmet, goggles, and a mask. If it weren't for the highly recognizable ski suit, no one would have recognized him even when wrapped like this.
Wen Zheng supported Lu Wenxing and told him some common sense about skiing. Lu Wenxing had looked up the introductory tutorial on the Internet before coming, but Wen Zheng was still worried and told him again.
"The stars can't ski?"
Lu Wenxing shook his head, and Xu Weiyao stepped forward. "I've participated in competitions before, how about I teach you?"
Lu Wenxing knew they were here to have fun, so he shook his head and said, "No need to bother, my brother can teach me."
"Wen Zheng and I have been friends for more than 20 years. His brother is my brother. Don't be polite to me."
Xu Weiyao tried to help Lu Wenxing, but Wen Zheng pushed him away, "We don't need you."
"You're welcome."
"I'm not being polite. I'm just afraid that you might drop the star without carefulness."
Xu Weiyao: “…”
Lu Wenxing: “…” He’s not that crispy.
"Wait for me." Wen Zheng helped Xingxing aside.
Wen Zheng walked into a shop near the ski resort. Lu Wenxing was waiting for him in a deserted place. He was not used to wearing snow goggles, so he raised his hand and pushed them to the top of his head.
"Get out of the way."
Lu Wenxing turned around and saw a young man on skis, unable to stop, running towards him. His heart skipped a beat and he slowly moved to the side, using his ski poles as if he was walking.
But the boy slid down too fast, and Lu Wenxing couldn't dodge in time. He squatted down to reduce the impact so that even if he fell, it wouldn't be too painful.
A hand reached out and pulled Lu Wenxing up from the ground. Before Lu Wenxing could react, the man slid him away for a distance, and the young man passed by him.
"Thanks."
Lu Wenxing wanted to step back, but the man's hand was still around his waist. Lu Wenxing frowned, and a familiar voice fell over his head.
"Just a thank you?"
Lu Wenxing: “……!”
It was Gu Yanshen's voice.
"Why are you here?"
Gu Yanshen pushed up his goggles, revealing a pair of deep eyes, "Come to find my boyfriend."
"I haven't had a vacation for a month, and my boyfriend doesn't even come to see me when he's on vacation." Gu Yanshen sighed and pretended to be sad. "I can only find time to come over."
Lu Wenxing didn't believe him and hooked his neck. "You came here secretly without telling me?"
"How dare I." Gu Yanshen supported him, "I finally got my vacation day off. I contacted you yesterday."
Gu Yanshen originally wanted to fly to City C. When he was video chatting with Lu Wenxing yesterday, he was waiting for the flight. When he learned that Lu Wenxing was going to City E to ski, he changed his flight temporarily and arrived in City E at night. He stayed there for one night just to give Lu Wenxing a surprise.
"I'll teach you?"
Before Lu Wenxing responded, Wen Zheng had already walked over.
"Star."
"elder brother."
Watching the intimate actions of the two, Wen Zheng's face darkened. In public, although he was wearing a face mask, in Wen Zheng's opinion, Lu Wenxing's eyes were easy to recognize.
Gu Yanshen had already withdrawn his hand and greeted Wen Zheng politely.
Wen Zheng frowned and was about to say something when Xu Weiyao hooked his shoulder.
"What? It's so hard for young lovers to meet each other, so don't be a third wheel...."
"Someone rushed over just now, but Gu Yanshen protected Xingxing."
Xu Weiyao actually saw it, and he wanted to take Lu Wenxing away, but Gu Yanshen was one step ahead of him. Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, he simply stood far away.
Wen Zheng wanted to say something when Ji Yuan and Wen Huaihe came up and saw them and exchanged a few words with them.
"Xiao Zheng, do you want to compete with your dad?"
"Xingxing is with Yan Shen, are you still worried?" Ji Yuan pushed Wen Zheng, "Your dad just said that it's been a long time since he competed with you."
Wen Huaihe:?
When did he read it?
Wen Huaihe stared at Gu Yanshen and was pulled away by Ji Yuan. "Yan Shen, this is our Xingxing's first time skiing, so please take good care of her."
"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely not let him fall."
Wen Huaihe snorted coldly, "What's wrong with falling? The first step in skiing is to learn how to fall."
"Actor Gu is a very good actor, but he may not be able to teach me, so let Xiao Zheng..."
"Why are you giving way?" Ji Yuan glared at him. "You two can go and have your fun. Don't be so scared standing there like a telephone pole."
Wen Zheng glanced at Lu Wenxing. Ever since Gu Yanshen appeared, Lu Wenxing's heart had been on him. He handed the anti-fall hip pad to Lu Wenxing with a cold face, "Bring it yourself."
"Brother, isn't this a bit exaggerated?"
Lu Wenxing saw many children playing here, wearing knee pads and wrist guards, but hip pads...
Gu Yanshen raised his hand to take it, "Don't worry, Mr. Wen, I will let Xingxing wear it."
Lu Wenxing: “…” He won’t wear it.
After Ji Yuan took Xiao Wen and Da Wen away, Gu Yanshen deliberately shook the hip pad in front of Lu Wenxing, "Really not wearing it?"
"I won't wear it, do you want to throw me on purpose?"
Gu Yanshen blinked and looked at him innocently. "Why does Xingxing miss me so much?"
Lu Wenxing snorted, "If you let me fall, I won't let you teach me anymore."
Gu Yanshen led Lu Wenxing to the flat ground.
"Try walking back and forth, or in a circle first."
"Knees splayed out, knees turned inward."
Gu Yanshen was very patient when teaching Lu Wenxing, supporting him the whole time, "Once you are comfortable walking, you can try going uphill."
Lu Wenxing tried it and although he walked like he was doing rehabilitation exercises, it was indeed not easy to fall.
Gu Yanshen demonstrated it to him in front, "Do you know how to roller skate? It's roughly the same feeling, but you can move a little faster."
Lu Wenxing tried it and fell backwards uncontrollably. When Gu Yanshen looked back, Lu Wenxing had already sat on the ground.
Lu Wenxing: “…”
Although his expression could not be seen beneath the mask, Gu Yan's smiling eyes had already betrayed him.
Gu Yanshen was laughing at him.
Lu Wenxing sat on the snow with his back to Gu Yanshen, leaving only the back of his head visible to him.
"Baby, I was wrong."
Lu Wenxing slapped away the hand on his shoulder.
"Are you really angry?"
Lu Wenxing lowered his head, Gu Yanshen squatted in front of him, lowered his head to see Lu Wenxing's expression. Lu Wenxing suddenly raised his head, pulled off Gu Yanshen's mask, and covered his face with snow.
"hiss."
Lu Wenxing chuckled and took the opportunity to push him. Gu Yanshen sat on the ground, as if he was really pushed down by him.
Lu Wenxing had already stood up with the help of his ski poles and moved slowly a few steps. When he walked a few steps away, Gu Yanshen grabbed a handful of snow and stood up to chase Lu Wenxing. In fact, there was no need to chase him, he could catch up with him in just two steps.
"Can you get away?"
Gu Yanshen put his other hand around Lu Wenxing's slender waist wrapped in a ski suit. Lu Wenxing quickly admitted his mistake. He held Gu Yanshen's hand with an innocent and well-behaved look.
"I was wrong."
Gu Yanshen let him hold him, released his hands on Lu Wenxing's waist, and pulled off Lu Wenxing's mask.
Lu Wenxing's eyes moved, and she leaned forward, placing an icy kiss on Gu Yanshen's cheek.
"One kiss and that's it?"
Lu Wenxing blinked and said unconvincedly, "It's ok for me to let you smash it back, right?"
"OK."
Lu Wenxing's eyes widened in disbelief. If Gu Yanshen dared to hit him...
Gu Yanshen raised his hand, and Lu Wenxing subconsciously lowered his head to avoid it.
A pair of slightly cool fingers clasped Lu Wenxing's chin, and before he could react, a gentle kiss followed.
Sweet and sour.
Gu Yanshen asked: "What did you just eat?"
"Lemon drops."
"I want one too."
Lu Wenxing spread his hands, "No more."
"have."
"Xu Weiyao gave me the candy. There was only one candy. He used it to play a prank on me. It was very sour and not tasty."
Gu Yanshen loosened his hand, and the snow fell to the ground. He grabbed Lu Wenxing's waist and lowered his head to bite Lu Wenxing's lips.
The thin lips opened slightly, and the nimble tip of the tongue took advantage of the opportunity to enter, blending the sour and sweet flavors.
After the two separated, Lu Wenxing's cheeks were flushed, and she leaned on Gu Yanshen's shoulder, breathing slightly.
Gu Yanshen's eyes were filled with smiles, and he was as happy as a child who had stolen candy. He lowered his head, his lips brushed against Lu Wenxing's ears, and his voice was low and hoarse.
"Liar, it's obviously sweet."
The author has something to say: Gu Shenshen: Those who say I can’t do it can ask Xingxing whether I can do it or not.
