Because of Qin Li's sudden appearance, Ji Li simply ordered some food and planned to stay in the room until work started tomorrow morning.
When the young general saw Qin Li, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he jumped up and down excitedly, and kept shouting.
"Young General, it seems that you have made me fatter."
“Ouch!”
Qin Li rubbed its head hard before it calmed down.
Ji Li held Xuebing in his arms and rubbed the young general's head. "It's my fault. I've been busy with movie watching lately and can only take him out for half an hour every day. Maybe he has lost some exercise, right?"
Baozi is also under a lot of pressure from his recent publicity work, and he is afraid that the newly hired assistant will not be able to take care of such a large dog. Ji Li will not force anyone to do anything and he does the dog walking himself.
However, once actors become busy, it is difficult for them to have normal working hours.
Ji Li drags his tired body to finish script reading and other work every day, and half an hour is the limit for him to spare.
"I didn't say it's bad for him to be fat. Half an hour a day is enough. It's hard for ordinary people to walk a dog as energetic as Major General."
Otherwise, why do celebrity actors like to keep cats and dogs? Taking a large dog like Major General out can easily turn into a "dog walking the person" scene.
"You? If you can't take care of him, I'll let Qi An take him back first. When I have some free time later, I'll take him out for more walks."
When the young general heard Qin Li's words, the whimpering sound in his mouth became much softer. It immediately rubbed Ji Li's palm as if to please him, and stared eagerly at the snow cake in his arms.
"Forget it, the young general doesn't want to leave, Baozi and I can take turns taking him out in the morning and evening."
Ji Li placed the snow cake on the major general's back, and the dog and the cat happily returned to the small compartment.
The two had just discussed for a while when the doorbell rang and the assistant's voice sounded.
"Brother Ji, I'll bring the takeaway food downstairs for you."
“Here I come.”
Five minutes later, a large table was filled with exquisite food.
Qin Li opened the page of "The Poor Travel Notes" and planned to catch up on the missed issues during dinner.
The variety show was about to broadcast the third trip to the Netherlands, but he and Ji Li hadn’t even started watching the second trip.
The familiar opening scene appeared, and a large number of barrages of comments instantly flooded in.
——Ahhh, Brother Li, I’m coming!
——Jili! Jili! Jili~jili! we love you!
——Rose, I’m here with a microscope! You guys can add as much sugar as you want!
——Hahaha, the sister in front is very brave.
——Please pay attention! A large and sweet scene is about to begin! It is very easy to get excited and faint!
Ji Li glanced at the comments on the barrage and was a little confused. "Our performance in Liangzhou the first time wasn't that obvious, right? Why do I feel like there are more comments from CP fans this time?"
"Let's wait and see. Anyway, we are very restrained." Qin Li replied lightly, with a hint of pride on his lips.
According to him, Yueji's super topic has attracted more than 500,000 followers, and the activity is increasing day by day.
Moreover, after more than half a year, it once again surpassed the super topic ranking of 'Takeoff' CP.
As the two were asking and answering each other, the main film began.
It was less than five in the morning, a time when even the roosters hadn't crowed yet, and the director of the program knocked on Ji Li's door.
When the fans of Ji in the barrage saw this time period, they all jumped out and felt sorry for him.
——Ah, filming variety shows is so tiring! Do I have to get up at this time to catch the plane?
——Did Jilizizi get enough sleep?
——The directors and producers of the program have worked really hard too. On behalf of Jili, I’d like to thank everyone for their contributions behind the scenes.
The door opened, and Ji Li poked out his messy little head with sleepy eyes. After confirming that the visitors were all staff members of the program crew, he generously invited them in.
"Good morning."
In the camera, Ji Li has a completely natural face, and her skin is soft and tender. His eyelids drooped from time to time, and the little hair standing up on his head was so adorable that it made people laugh.
The fans who were originally sympathetic on the barrage suddenly changed their attitude 180 degrees.
——Wow, woosh, it’s indeed my soft, fragrant and sweet baby! Just wait patiently! Mommy will give you some milk!
——Thank you program team! Let us see such a cute Jili!
——Help! My heart is pounding. Ji Li’s character is pure, seductive, handsome and beautiful, but the result? He is so cute in private?
——Whoever is with Ji Li in the future will have accumulated blessings for eight hundred lifetimes!
Seeing all these comments of various shapes and colors, Ji Li glanced at Qin Li sheepishly, but he didn't expect that the man's eyes were completely fixed on the screen.
Qin Li didn't notice his gaze. He picked up the ice-cold mineral water on the table and took two gulps. He seemed to be thirsty suddenly.
Ji Li was stunned for a second or two, then suddenly moved closer with a little pride.
Qin Li's gaze shifted immediately, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I want to lean on you and watch the show with this human-shaped pillow."
Qin Li chuckled and immediately adjusted his posture to allow his lover to lean in comfortably, then he turned his attention back to the screen.
Ji Li’s unboxing process was simple, even a little sloppy. The fans on the screen started a new round of funny comments, with all the fans playing the role of moms.
——Hey, baby, you really can’t leave your mother. Get out of the way, I will take care of you!
——Jili, you? How can your mother feel at ease? Even the suitcase was packed so casually.
——Everyone, please wake up and don’t spoil Li Zai! (ps: kid, don’t let anyone kidnap you when you go out)
Ji Li was so annoyed by the comments that he felt helpless and amused. "I think I packed it pretty well. It was folded neatly and I brought everything I needed."
He packed his luggage at the last minute that day because he had to return to his country for an audition, so he deliberately didn't bring much with him.
Qin Li smiled and said, "You are all joking. Even if you don't do a good job, I will take care of it."
Ji Li muttered, "Baozi told me before that the majority of my fans are mom fans, while the number of girlfriend fans is declining."
Qin Li sighed inexplicably, "So, that's why I'm under a lot of pressure."
"What??"
"You have so many fans. If every one of them was as defensive as Sister Yu was to me, would I still have a chance to survive?"
Ji Li couldn't help laughing and pinched Qin Li's sexy Adam's apple, "Nonsense."
Actors’ love affairs are not as taboo as idols’. As long as it does not involve the bottom line of ethics and morality, rational fans will generally accept and bless them.
Although China is not as open to homosexuality as other countries, there have been precedents of people coming out publicly.
Ji Li had imagined that sooner or later he and Qin Li would have a day when their relationship would be public or semi-public.
Ji Li hopes to be honest about love, including to his fans. At that time, whether the fans choose to bless him or leave, he will accept it willingly.
Ji Li looked back and forth between Qin Li and himself, still feeling depressed, "You and I? Are there such big differences? Why do all my fans treat me like a child?"
Other people's fans call him "boyfriend" or "husband", but his fans call him "son" or "son".
The difference is too big.
You know, Qin Li has always been recognized as the top No. 1 boyfriend, and he has accumulated countless female fans since his debut.
Although many old fans have entered the marriage hall, there are still many new female fans joining the fandom every year. What's more exaggerated is that there are still many gays who regard Qin Li as a fantasy sexual object.
Qin Li's eyes moved slightly, and he said meaningfully, "If you call me 'husband', I will definitely be happy to do so."
“…”
Ji Li's face turned red due to his dirty talk, and he quickly turned his gaze back to the screen. The program had already progressed to Qin Li's doorstep.
The young general who rushed out of the door threw himself on Ji Li, wagging his tail like a propeller in joy. Qin Li, who entered the camera, explained, "Sorry, my dog is very sociable."
This time, the fans of Li Yu did not flood the screen with comments as crazy as last time. Instead, they were all focused on Ji Li and Shao Jiang, and the comments also started to go in a strange direction.
——If I remember correctly, Brother Li’s young general is very smart, but he is always very cold to outsiders? Even the agent Qi An said that it is difficult to tame a young general, so why is it so clinging to Ji Li?
——There is only one truth! Ji Li and the young general had frequent contact, and the dog regarded him as a very familiar and intimate master.
——Thank you, sister Weifan! I hit it! I hit it!
——Dogs don’t lie! Anyway, Jili and Li Ge must have a good relationship in private!
——Hahaha, Brother Li's words 'My dog is very sociable' sound serious yet a little perfunctory.
Ji Li felt helpless.
The two of them hid themselves well in front of the camera, but were actually "betrayed" by the young general?
The following Qin Li unboxing session sparked another wave of heated discussion among fans.
——This man is too careful!
——Ahhh, will I ever be able to meet another Brother Li in real life in this lifetime?
——Whoever is with Brother Li in the future will have accumulated blessings for eight hundred lifetimes! Thanks for the invitation, I'm already starting to get jealous!
——Oh, they complement each other.
——Oh, the sister in front, I understand you? The 'complementarity' is so sweet!
Ji Li obviously understood the meaning of the word "complementary" and was vaguely worried, "Will these CP fans' comments provoke a dispute between the two groups' fans?"
"Don't worry, this was posted three weeks ago. My team and I monitor online public opinion in real time. If there were any problems between the fans of both sides, they would have been reported long ago."
No matter how good the relationship between two main characters is, there will always be small-scale quarrels between their fans. This is an inevitable frustration in the entertainment industry.
As long as the quarrel is not large-scale and excessive, the authorities generally will not intervene to control it, so as to avoid being labeled with the unpleasant title of "monitoring the fan circle".
"Our fans are all very rational, and most of our CP fans know how to stay within their own circle and won't cause any direct conflict."
Is it because Qin Li has been in the circle for a long time that his fans have naturally become more Buddhist and don't care about the so-called "fighting" in the fan circle at all?
Ji Li's fans are as calm as the main character. They all know that Ji Li debuted only recently and has been promoted quickly, so they are all careful in their words and actions and will not provoke seniors or actors.
As for the CP fans of the two, they are also very cautious and only show their affection in super chats and groups.
Although Qin Li and Ji Li have collaborated many times, it has never become a reason for them to "make trouble".
To use the words of Qi An, the agent -
"I've seen two groups of fans of an actor get along harmoniously, and I've also seen fans of an actor and a couple get along peacefully, but I've never seen two groups of fans of an actor and a couple get together and still watch and support each other."
Ji Li felt relieved, "That's true."
The following scenes belong to Yuan Yifei and Ji Yunqi.
Although Yuan Yifei has long been a top actor, his home is decorated in a very simple and plain style. To put it bluntly, it's a bit cold and there's no warmth or human touch at all.
"I've been running around for promotions for a long time and I'm used to staying in hotels, so my own home is relatively simple."
When Ji Li heard Yuan Yifei's interview in front of the camera, his eyebrows knitted slightly, "Yifei still needs a close relative to accompany her?"
The work team can only be regarded as partners in business cooperation, because Yuan is no longer in his current status and position, it is difficult to easily confide in each other.
Qin Li asked, "You? Are you talking about Qi Heng?"
"Qi Heng is too young after all, right? He is six or seven years older than Yuan Yifei. He is a young master from a wealthy family, and he is also a newcomer in the entertainment industry with great momentum. I think Yifei should be very worried."
Qin Li didn't say anything.
To some extent, he agreed with Ji Li's point of view.
Yuan Yifei has a very calm temperament. He takes all aspects of everything into consideration and is not the type that acts impulsively.
If they weren't sure about each other, he wouldn't easily start a relationship.
"Since the variety show ended, he seems to have not accepted any new scripts." Ji Li sighed, "I don't think he is like Lu Yao anymore."
There is always a smile on his face, but who knows what his heart has been hurt by what he has experienced over the years.
As friends, Ji Li and Ji Yunqi were willing to listen, but Yuan Yifei was hiding something and was unwilling to speak, and they couldn't force the other party to reopen the wound.
"Let's get together when we have time." Qin Li replied softly, "It's always good to have more friends around to chat and drink."
Ji Li thought of his two friends' alcohol tolerance and shook his head, "Just chatting is enough. There is no option for me to drink with them."
The two chatted briefly and then started watching "The Poor Travels" again.
Compared with Yuan Yifei's minimalist decoration style, the Ji family mansion is completely in luxury mode.
As the saying goes, being rich easily attracts envy, but when you are rich to a certain level, outsiders can only look up to you.
The entire screen was completely filled with the word "rich". Watching the clips shot by the program crew, Ji Li finally had a deep understanding of the original book's male protagonist who was "born with a silver spoon in his mouth".
However, no matter how rich the male protagonist is, he is defeated by the unlucky person. Entering the official travel stage, the four of them went to Austria together.
When choosing their first funding option on the plane, Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei drew the worst option - zero yuan for the first day's travel expenses.
Ji Li and Qin Li were promoted and chose the best option - the first day's travel expenses would be provided by the program team.
The extreme contrast, one in heaven and one in hell, made netizens laugh.
Qin Li and Ji Li were enjoying their meal, while Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei could only hold their instant noodles and watch with resentful eyes.
Qin Li and Ji Li wore formal attire to enjoy the opera, while Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei could only listen to street performers singing on the roadside.
Qin Li and Ji Li were taken to their destination by a special car, while Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei had to rely solely on their own legs.
Because the production team respected the rules too much, Ji Li's requests for help were ruthlessly rejected.
Ji Yunqi was so angry that he confronted the director team on the spot. He finally got a chance to restart his destiny, but in the end, it was ruined by his own bad luck.
At this point, Ji Yunqi was in tears, Yuan Yifei lay down and accepted his fate, and netizens burst into laughter.
The two completely different destinies formed a strong and sharp contrast.
——Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, I’m going crazy because of Third Miss laughing.
——Facts have proved that one group is really poor, and the other group is really traveling.
——I feel sorry for Yuanbao, but I still want to laugh at Third Miss, hahahaha.
——It’s so sweet, keep it up at this rate!
The netizens’ comments were endless, and the program’s ratings were higher with each episode. So far, the number of online views has exceeded 100 million.
In the three episodes in Austria, netizens and fans found the show full of laughter, while the CPs found it full of sweet moments.
The young general acknowledged Jili as his master, which meant that the two of them were already living together? sweet!
Li Ge’s tea bags are full of milk tea solvents, but Jili likes to drink milk tea? sweet!
Two people wore formal attire to go to the opera, and Jili took the initiative to fix Li Ge's bow tie? sweet!
A coat worn by Ji Li, which initially only appeared in Li Ge’s unboxing clip? sweet!
The number of followers of the Rose CP super topic has been increasing in the past three weeks, and the second official fan group that was just opened a month ago is now full.
Su Qi, who was originally a die-hard fan of Qin Li, has completely fallen for the Yue Ji CP! Because the more she looked, the more she realized that Brother Li definitely had feelings for Jili.
An idol who has been single for many years wants to pursue someone? How can these fans stop it? Also, the happiest thing in the world is to eat candy. Isn’t it good to enjoy life while you can?
The only pity is that the trailer for the new episode has come out, but Jili missed the recording at this tourist destination due to work.
Su Qi sighed, gathered her thoughts, opened the official Qin Li Global Fan Group, and typed a line of righteous words -
"This week's variety show will feature Li Xing's Feng Cheng as his partner. You can watch more comments about the two of them, but avoid any comments about their CP. There's no need to argue with the other party or CP fans. Just watch the variety show happily!"
As Su Qi is a group manager and a big fan, this notice quickly received a response from everyone.
She closed the group chat page, quickly switched accounts, and entered the second official group of Yueji Fufu.
"Sisters! Although Jili is not on the variety show this week, don't be sad. We can still find some sweet moments in the cracks!"
"For example, if we compare Brother Li's attitude towards Feng Cheng, we might be able to find something extra sweet!"
"There is no sugar that cannot be dug out, there are only CP fans who don't work hard! Go for it! Microscopes!"
This group notification caused an even stronger response.
After Su Qi sent these two group notifications, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Good job.
She has mastered the art of underground warfare!
…
The two of them watched the three missed episodes at double speed, and it was not even nine o'clock in the evening.
Ji Li took a quick hot shower and then snuggled comfortably in the quilt.
Sure enough, the quilt in winter is the most comfortable, no doubt about it.
When Qin Li came back from taking a shower, Ji Li was still studying the script. The seat on the left side of the big bed was obviously reserved for him.
Qin Li came closer and asked, "What time will work start tomorrow?"
“The first scene is written for nine in the morning, but I have to get up at about five.”
His makeup and hair do take some time, and he needs to get up early to prepare.
Qin Li put away the script that the other party had memorized by heart, and whispered to him, "Then go to bed early. I will accompany you to the crew tomorrow."
His flight is at six o'clock tomorrow afternoon, so as long as he can leave before noon and return to Haishi, he will still have time.
Ji Li turned over and lay in his arms, rubbing his nose, "...Qin Li."
Qin Li held his lover in his arms, and somehow he remembered the word that the fans left in the barrage - fragrant, soft and sweet.
The breath was disordered for a moment, but was quickly suppressed by Qin Li. Ji Li noticed his calmness and was a little surprised, "You? Don't want it?"
Qin Li turned around and pushed Ji Li back onto the bed, gently rubbing his soft lips, "If you make a scene now, you won't be able to get out of bed, not to mention tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow."
Ji Li knew how much unspeakable weight was carried by his casual words, and immediately put away all the affectionate thoughts.
"Then I'll set the alarm first." He turned on his mobile phone and slowly set the alarm.
Qin Li took a glance and couldn't help laughing, "Baby, you? What's going on?"
It was clearly time to get up at five o'clock, but Ji Li set the alarm clock at four o'clock and had to wake up every fifteen minutes.
"It's too tiring to get up early in the winter. Let's order a few more so that we won't oversleep." Ji Li always does this. Wake up early and give yourself enough time to stay in bed.
Qin Li snatched his phone and turned off the unnecessary alarm. "You can sleep, I will wake you up."
"Sure?"
"certainly."
Qin Li turned off the bedside lamp and fell asleep with his lover in his arms.
Ji Li originally thought that he would suffer from insomnia on the first day of filming because he was lying on a strange hotel bed. Unexpectedly, he suddenly found himself in a familiar and reassuring embrace.
Have a good night.
Ji Li was awakened by Qin Li's gentle call, "Li Bao, it's almost time to wake up, okay?"
"...Hmm." Ji Li hummed twice in confusion, without even fluttering his eyelids, and moved towards the familiar source of heat.
Click.
The lights in the room turned on.
Qin Li covered Ji Li's eyes with his warm palms, protecting him from the momentary stimulation of the strong light.
After waiting for about half a minute, Ji Li finally got up from the bed with his head down. His nasal cavity was heavy when he woke up.
"...What? The glamorous actors and stars are just working in the entertainment industry. Waking up early in the winter is just asking for trouble."
Ji Li is relatively self-disciplined. The only hard part is getting up early in the winter. Now he is just complaining when he wakes up half-awake.
Qin Li was overwhelmed by his lover's cuteness. He pinched his face which was hot from sleep and said, "Take a nap for a while. I'll carry you to the bathroom to wash up."
“…”
Ji Li was too lazy to refuse, and immediately used his hands and feet to wrap around Qin Li like a koala.
The two of them were lovers, so they could stay together as long as they wanted.
It was not until Qin Li carried him into the bathroom that Ji Li's sleepiness was completely gone.
"Are you still sleepy?" Qin Li weighed him, put him on the sink, and moved closer. "Baby, do you feel lighter recently?"
Ji Li buried her face in the crook of his neck, completely driving away the sleepiness, "It's only three or four pounds. I restrained myself for the role. Otherwise, without hair, my face would look swollen on camera."
Five minutes later, the two of them finished washing up together.
Qin Li asked casually, "What are we going to shoot this morning? What scenes are we going to film?"
"Let's shoot Scene 18 first."
Qin Li's eyes narrowed. Without flipping through the script, he clearly remembered the eighteenth scene, "The scene where Chen Yi first met Yan Su from the fifth life and deliberately set a trap for him?"
Ji Li thought of the detailed description of this scene and felt inexplicably guilty, so he prepared to slip away back to his bedroom.
Qin Li raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly blocked his way. "The actor who plays opposite you is called Xu Yanzhi?"
The author has something to say: #Brother Li is very affectionate towards his baby, kissing, hugging and lifting him up high. Brother Li is secretly monitoring his hidden rival.
