Chapter 116
While they were away, the bed had been specially made by the hotel service and replaced with dry and warm sheets and quilt covers.
Bai Gaoxing sat on the soft bed, feeling as if he was about to sink into it.
His fingers were still hooked on Li Pho's sleeves, just passing through the holes in his shirt.
Bai Gaoxing's back was stiff for a moment, then slowly relaxed, and his shoulders were no longer so tense.
"Take a nap. I'm also sleepy."
He may have been too straightforward just now.
But it was a decision he made after careful consideration.
Bai Gaoxing stared at the man in front of him intently. He had to admit that he was disturbed by that beautiful dream. When he was alone, he couldn't control his thoughts and they were in a mess.
However, compared to the illusory dream, he was more worried about Li Pho's condition.
During that rather long period of time, the man sat silently and lonely in a corner of the sofa, his figure gradually fading into darkness as the sunlight sank into the horizon.
He didn't want to see that kind of scene again.
Bai Gaoxing moved closer to the bed and patted his side, "Come on! You can continue working only after you have a good rest."
As he said that, he lifted the quilt, went straight in, sat on it and looked at the other person.
He was sitting on Li Pho's bed.
Bai Gaoxing's eyes were full of hope. He didn't think Li Pu would refuse. After all, they slept together at home, and he would roll around in each other's arms when they fell asleep. Sometimes when he woke up, he would run into each other's arms.
Sure enough, after a brief silence, the man sat down beside the bed.
Bai Gaoxing was pleased that his guess was correct, and he became more determined to help Li Pu relieve his stress. So after taking off his own coat, he then took off Li Pu's coat and dragged the man down onto the bed.
They lay almost face to face.
Li Pu's eyes were beautiful, like the deep night sky, but he had never looked at them so carefully before. Now that he was so close, he could see that the other person's eyes were full of himself.
Bai Gaoxing subconsciously slowed down his breathing, and after a while he spoke: "You didn't sleep well, was it because of the filming?"
Li Pho said nothing.
This tacit attitude made Bai Gaoxing more certain of his guess. He stared at the man quietly for a while, then stepped forward and held the man's head in his arms.
Li Pho was stunned for a moment.
Bai Gaoxing didn't know what he was feeling. He just remembered the heavy and depressed expression of the man when he was filming "The Long Song", and the time when the man buried his face in him. Until now, he still remembered Li Pu's hot and boiling breathing at that time, and the fatigue in his eyes that could not be concealed.
He rested his chin in Li Pho's hair, holding him like Li Pho once held a parrot, "Will this help?"
"......Yeah." After a long while, a low response came from my arms.
Facing the man's vulnerability for the first time, Bai Gaoxing was touched. His fingertips unconsciously touched the back of Li Pu's head, saying something like "relax a little". However, within a few seconds, he suddenly felt a huge force coming from behind. The man's broad and slender palm grabbed his shoulders from behind. With a force, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, his body sank, and then he was pressed into a warm and broad embrace.
The reversal of positions took only a moment. Bai Gaoxing opened his eyes wide in shock and did not react for a long time.
He seemed to be deaf to everything, his heart was beating violently, and his eyes were fixed on the wooden floor. The hand behind his back slowly tightened, and stopped when he was about to suffocate, as if he wanted to wrap him up tightly.
Not long after, he felt Li Pu's face move slightly, and his chin rubbed against the top of his head, causing a tingling sensation.
It was the first time he was hugged so intimately.
"Do you... like this?" Bai Gaoxing blinked and said hesitantly, "Alright... that's fine."
Li Pu lowered his eyes, feeling the young and warm body in his arms. The fresh breath of the young man lingered in his nose, causing his heart to beat faster involuntarily.
It was obviously not because of the filming, but he still deceived Dabai into getting closer. It was really too despicable.
He clearly remembered the posts he had read and put into practice. Those people said that intimate physical contact could bring two people closer together.
But after he did it, he realized that it was actually quite bad.
The feeling of holding someone in your arms is that you still want more.
Li Pu's gaze sank for a while, and he slowly closed his eyes, trying to calm the heat in his heart.
However, it wasn't long before the boy started to move around.
"Li Pu," Bai Gaoxing whispered, "You're hugging me too tightly. It's a little hot."
He poked the man's chest and felt something hard.
, which shows that Li Pho’s body has never relaxed.
Li Pu became more and more tense after being poked, and loosened his grip slightly.
Bai Gaoxing lingered for a few seconds, then turned around, brushing against Li Pu's body, and breathed in the unobstructed fresh air.
"Don't move." The voice from behind seemed a little more urgent than usual, and his waist was also held down hard.
All right.
Bai Gaoxing stopped moving.
He stared at the other end of the pillow, feeling the gradually rising temperature behind his neck, and couldn't help shivering.
The breath is hot.
He couldn't help but adjust his posture again. The hand on his waist suddenly clenched, and his body suddenly softened, making him almost moan.
"Go to sleep." A voice came from behind.
Bai Gaoxing held his breath, lying quietly and motionlessly, his back pressed against Li Pu's chest. He could almost feel the vibration of his heart in his chest.
I can't sleep at all. They both thought at the same time.
The air conditioner was turned off in the morning and has not been turned on again. The temperature in the room is obviously not high, even a little cold, but they are almost soaked with sweat.
The bath was in vain.
This was the only thought in Bai Gaoxing's mind. His heart beat faster and faster, and he even began to feel dizzy.
Li Pho was not much better.
He resisted the desire aroused by the touch and slowly withdrew his hand from the boy's body.
Maybe... he shouldn't have tried in the first place.
After a long time, Li Pu's eyelids gradually became heavy. He really didn't get much rest last night. At this moment, sleepiness swept over him like a tide, making him really sleepy.
Just when he completely closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, the temperature in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Li Fu sensed something, opened his eyes and looked at the snow-white bird in front of him, and looked into the pair of pitch-black eyes.
"Gah..." Bai Gaoxing cried out guiltily, "It's cooler this way."
indeed.
Li Pu looked at him for a long while, curled the corners of his lips, and this time without hesitation, he held the parrot in his neck, sniffed the dry and warm scent of its feathers, and closed his eyes.
…
It was almost evening.
"Hey! Are you awake? Tonight we are going to--" Darren knocked on the door vigorously, and his voice stopped abruptly when he saw the man who came to open the door, "Brother, you don't look well."
Inside the door, Li Pu, who had only slept for three hours, had an indescribable feeling on his face. He never thought that the boy would change back after falling asleep. After that, he couldn't sleep at all.
"I slept for a long time." Li Pu understood a little and replied.
This doesn't sound like a bad sleep, but rather like unsatisfied desire. Darren complained in his heart and looked inside, "Where's Bai?"
"He got up immediately."
"Wow~" Darren nodded in praise, "Okay, I'll go down and wait for you."
Darren's figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor. Bai Gaoxing walked over in slippers, rubbing his eyes, "Didn't you deliver dinner tonight?"
"Frank said he'll treat us after we finish filming tonight." Li Pu repeated what the director said in the group chat and took out two loaves of bread from the lunch the hotel sent. "It'll probably be late, so let's eat something first."
"Oh..." Bai Gaoxing had just woken up, so his thinking was still a little sluggish. He took one of the candies, opened it, put it in his mouth, and then raised his head and asked, "Did you eat it?"
"Not yet." Li Pu replied, and then Bai Gaoxing opened another piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth with extremely fast hands.
…
The casino scene is ready.
When the two arrived at another filming location, most people had already arrived, holding cakes or bread to fill their stomachs.
Seeing Li Pu and Bai Gaoxing, everyone looked over.
There's an Adonis show tonight.
The dealers have already put on their uniforms, white on top and black on the bottom. The tight-fitting clothes show their figures, slim waists and long legs. Paired with the same white gloves, a sense of professionalism and refinement comes over them.
Bai Gaoxing saw Pu Jiahui in the crowd. He was also wearing a slim-fitting croupier uniform. Although he had a smile on his face, he seemed a little impatient.
In Casino, most of the scenes take place at the casino tables in the back room, so the room is decorated magnificently.
The black wooden round tables that have been rubbed to a gleaming shine are neatly arranged, the carpet with lines and dreamy tones looks like a monster with a huge mouth, and even champagne and red wine are fully prepared. The air is also oxygenated here to make people feel excited, in short, high.
In pursuit of realism, Frank did not stop delivering high-concentration oxygen, and everyone came in full of energy.
"Okay, Adonis, you're the only one missing." Frank came over and hugged Li Pu. He seemed very excited, with a red face. "But don't worry. The first part is the scene where the male lead and Blake are acting together. I have to shoot the two scenes separately. You can take your time to change your clothes."
"And Bai." He turned to Bai Gaoxing, "That dress was tailor-made for you! It's perfect!"
Bai Gaoxing smiled.
"I almost forgot about this." Frank took out his phone and said, "I have to send out your makeup photos. The whole team can't leave you behind."
"Okay." After some operations, he put down his phone and said excitedly: "Believe me, they will go crazy for you!"
Bai Gaoxing was a little nervous, "Well... I will try my best!"
Frank quickly went to check elsewhere.
"It seems that Frank has high hopes for you." Nitia, who came to watch tonight, came over and said, her eyes full of sympathy and a little bit of sympathy, "You'll have a hard time."
Frank is almost famous in the industry for his attention to detail, especially when he has a good "feeling" about you. If you don't meet his standards, he will have to shoot you over and over again.
Bai Gaoxing had also heard this and sighed helplessly, "I hope I can satisfy him."
This is his first time making a movie as a human being.
Nitia wished him good luck, looked between him and Li Pu with a smile, waved her hand and left.
His eyes seemed a little strange. Bai Gaoxing touched his face and found no bread crumbs on it.
The scenes were not shot in sequence. This part shows the protagonist returning to the casino as a dealer, getting caught cheating with the boss, and then being caught by Blake who wants to chop off his hand.
In the plot, this time is when the casino is busiest.
Therefore, after catching the male protagonist cheating, they made the biggest fuss.
The extras were already sitting at the gaming table ready. As soon as the director said start, some of them stood up and shouted. Darren, who played the male lead, was held down by the "inspector" who was in charge of supervising the dealers. Two security guards immediately came up and forced him to his knees on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a pair of shiny leather shoes appeared in the camera.
Blake is a shift manager at the casino.
It is equivalent to a manager, whose responsibility is to walk around, check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps, and solve some unexpected small problems.
Park Jiahui's face looked good in the camera, especially that cold and cunning look like a wolf, which made Frank behind the camera shout "yes".
Bai Gaoxing was shocked. Is this...acting as himself?
The man came in front of the hero, his fake smile was creepy. He asked the security to take the man away and went to a secluded corner.
Darren was lying on the ground, his unwilling eyes seemed to be blazing with fire. He stared at Blake closely, trying to struggle.
"I didn't expect you to be so brave." Blake held a thin wooden stick in his hand, like a pointer. He smiled and counted the male protagonist's behavior. "If I remember correctly, this is the second time you've been caught, right?"
The male protagonist said nothing, just looked at him.
"Speak." Blake frowned unhappily. This was a challenge to his authority. He tapped the hero's face with the pole, each time harder than the last.
The male protagonist sneered with a red mark on his face, "So what? It's better than you idiots who can't see anything here."
Blake's face changed.
Blake is a leader obsessed with profit.
He had no talent for calculation, and could only sit in this position by relying on connections and ambition - he tried to be a dealer for a few days when he first came here, hoping to be promoted in a less conspicuous way, but he failed. He couldn't mobilize the atmosphere of the gambling table, nor could he adapt to the huge amount of calculations as a dealer, so he was soon transferred away and was laughed at by many dealers who didn't know his true identity.
He is a villain in the growth path of the hero and heroine, with cruel means of making money.
After hearing what the male protagonist said, he showed a cruel but gentle smile, "Since you violated the casino's rules, I have no choice but to punish you on behalf of the boss."
The shiny leather shoes stepped on the male protagonist's fingers, "I'll buy these hands for two hundred dollars."
As he spoke, he stepped down slowly, crushing it, and the male protagonist's face turned red.
"stop!"
Frank yelled "click".
"That's not right," he said. "Blake was joking, but after hearing what the male protagonist said, he should have been furious."
He looked at Park Jiahui and asked, "Are you acting a little impatient?"
"I'm sorry." Park Jiahui said, "Maybe I'm not in good enough condition."
"Then do it again."
This scene happened eight times.
After the eighth time, Frank frowned and nodded, "Okay."
Darren stood up, holding his hands and grimacing in pain.
Bai Gaoxing looked closely and saw that the back of his hand was already red and swollen.
"I'm sorry." Park Jiahui apologized, "Did I use too much force?"
"It's okay." Darren looked at him deeply, blew on himself, and shook it with a grin.
It turns out Darren's blush was not acted.
Bai Gaoxing looked at Pu Jiahui, who had a calm face, and became a little more wary of him.
After this scene was filmed, it was time for Adonis to come out and save the male protagonist.
Li Pu had just gone to change his clothes, so no one knew where he was at the moment, but judging from the gestures of the attendant, he should be ready.
Bai Gaoxing looked around but didn't see the man, so he gave up.
The actors quickly returned to their proper positions and got into the mood.
Blake took his foot away from the male protagonist's hand, motioned to the people next to him to take him out the door, and actually took out an exquisite knife from his pocket.
At this moment, a shout of "wait" came from the whole place.
The deep sound like a violin instantly attracted everyone's attention. The tall and straight figure slowly emerged from the shadows, giving people a stunning sight.
Adonis is like an iceberg beneath the sea. He is dignified, solemn, and mysterious. The snow-white gloves and tight uniform he wears make him look elegant and abstinent.
