Chapter 60
60
Li Yun looked at the time and it was already past eleven in the morning.
The little ancestor should be awake by now.
Li Yun tried to call, but no one answered.
Li Yun thought, maybe he is still sleeping in.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yun called again, but the call was hung up after a few rings.
Li Yun thought...I slept for quite a long time.
At around four o'clock, Li Yun called carefully, and this time someone finally answered.
"What's up?"
Li Yun shuddered: "Boss Gao?"
"It's me." Gao Bochong's voice on the other end of the phone was lazy, with a hint of smugness and contentment, like a well-fed lion. He said in a good mood, "Zhizhi just fell asleep. Tell me if you have anything to say."
...?
Li Yun looked at the time, thought about the phone calls that had just ended in vain, and finally understood.
Li Yun said, "It's not a big deal. Xiao Wang was invited to the Golden Phoenix Awards. I wanted to ask him...when can he come back?"
Suddenly, a voice came from the other end of the line, as if it had just woken up, and asked drowsily, "Honey, who's calling?"
Gao Bochong, who had just spoken indifferently, immediately became extremely gentle and said softly, "It's Li Yun."
"Brother Li's phone number? Give it to me and I'll answer it myself."
Then there was the rustling sound of fabric rubbing against each other. Wang Zhi's voice was soft and a little hoarse, as if he was very tired. He called out softly, "Brother Li."
Li Yun quickly said, "I'm here. Xiao Wang, congratulations! The ratings for 'Post-80s' have exploded!"
"Really?" Wang Zhi's voice suddenly brightened. "How's the reputation?"
"It's also a hit," Li Yun laughed. "Especially your second male lead, it's sparked heated discussion. Xiao Wang, you've become an instant hit this time!"
On the other end of the phone, Wang Zhi's face flushed with excitement. She stood up, and the quilt that had been wrapped around her body slipped off, revealing her body as white and flexible as jade.
He didn't care at all and continued to ask Li Yun: "Golden Phoenix Award? Me? Brother Li, you didn't buy the spot for me, did you?"
Li Yun said, "How could your brother Li have such ability?"
Although the company did invest a lot of publicity in the "Post-80s" project, no one expected the show to become such a hit, practically a phenomenon. Especially the supporting actor played by Wang Zhi, whose popularity has skyrocketed. Now, on all the self-media websites, his secondary creations are overwhelmingly popular. Li Yun looked and saw not only those with the male lead, but also with the female lead and the male supporting actor...
Li Yun didn't understand young people's love for matchmaking, but he understood marketing, so he immediately stepped up publicity efforts. Now Wang Zhi's popularity is really snowballing.
Li Yun warned: "Don't dress sloppily when you go out, or you'll be photographed by paparazzi."
Wang Zhi was also very serious: "I understand!"
Wang Zhi suddenly shuddered.
Behind him, Gao Bochong reached out and slowly stroked his back.
His skin was very thin, white and transparent, stretched over his bones, and his spine was like a rugged dragon, winding beautifully to the tail.
Gao Bochong's hands were very hot, but his skin was cold. When Wang Zhi touched it, he felt like he was being burned.
He couldn't help but tremble again, and rolled away silently, away from Gao Bo Chong.
"Brother Li, do I have to do the styling too if I run with you?"
"Of course! And even if you're just a runner-up, your chances of winning are very high!"
Wang Zhi just thought Li Yun was encouraging him: "I'm already very happy to be able to go to the scene. I'm going to be on heaven if I can win the award. Hahaha... Um..."
Li Yun asked, "What's wrong?"
Wang Zhi was silent for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Nothing. Then... then Brother Li, I'm going to hang up first. I'll be back tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhi slapped the back of Gao Bochong's hand angrily: "You're so annoying! Can't you see I'm talking about business?"
Gao Bochong was unhurried and was patted by him. He grabbed his fingers with his backhand and said, "Aren't we done talking about this?"
"It's you who's causing all the trouble..."
Wang Zhi's breathing became irregular again, because Gao Bochong had already come closer. Wang Zhi was a little panicked: "We've been working all morning, didn't you tell me to rest?"
"Isn't a little sleep enough?"
Wang Zhi was shocked and said, "I only slept for half an hour?!"
Gao Bochong is simply not a human being!
I woke myself up early in the morning because of a nausea, and then I spent the entire morning messing with him. Now it’s finally over, and now I’m in the mood again?!
Wang Zhi subconsciously glanced down and was even more shocked to find that Gao Bo Chong was really hard again!
——Help!
Gao Bochong is simply treating himself like a cow.
Wang Zhi used his hands and feet to crawl to the bed, but Gao Bochong grabbed his ankle and pulled him back easily.
Wang Zhi's legs curled up unnaturally because he suddenly remembered that when it just ended, he was so tired that he fell asleep and seemed to have forgotten to wear underwear.
So now, his whole body was empty... Gao Bochong was pulling him like this, and everything was visible.
Wang Zhi looked up and saw Gao Bochong looking at her with interest. He then said with satisfaction, "Baby, why are you pink everywhere?"
Wang Zhi's face suddenly turned red and he felt extremely hot.
How could Gao Bochong say such shameless words so seriously?
He whispered, "You...you are not allowed to say it."
"What are you not allowed to say? Are you not allowed to say that the baby's mouth is pink? Or are you not allowed to say that the baby's mouth is like a small coin and is always tight?"
These obscene words were like electric currents, passing through the skin that Gao Bochong was holding and spreading all the way upwards.
Wang Zhi couldn't stand it any longer and wanted to hide himself completely, but Gao Bochong didn't allow it and insisted on showing him off.
His fingers slowly sank into the mouth that Gao Bo Chong described as "soft and hot". Gao Bo Chong leaned down and kissed Wang Zhi's lips.
Wang Zhi felt like a quilt that had been carefully folded from a long strip into overlapping layers, and was dizzy with Gao Bo's affection.
Gao Bochong was still evaluating: "Wife, you know what? When you get nervous, you bite really hard. Look—"
He tried to pull his fingers out, but it seemed like there was suction and they were stuck inside. When he finally pulled them out, there was a soft "pop" sound, as if he was pulling them out of a vacuum jar.
"Baby is amazing."
Wang Zhi's eyes burned, and he felt like tears were about to fall from his eyes because of shame. He couldn't speak, so he could only close his eyes tightly. However, the loss of sight made his sense of touch more acute.
Wang Zhi could clearly feel Gao Bochong's fingertips, like playing piano keys, passing over his calves, then his thighs, lower abdomen... and finally landing on his throat.
This was an extremely dangerous place. Blood was flowing in the aorta, and he could take away all of Wang Zhi's air by simply tightening his fingers.
His heartbeat quickened, and Gao Bochong suddenly said, "Wife, sometimes I think I might die in your hands."
Wang Zhi's eyelashes trembled and she looked at him blankly. That look was like a stimulant, which instantly ignited Gao Bochong's blood.
He controlled himself from tightening his fingers and just kissed Wang Zhi hard, taking away Wang Zhi's breath in another way.
On the verge of suffocation, Wang Zhi heard Gao Bochong say, "...Because you are my home. Wife, I am willing to die on you."
It was both horrible and sweet.
Wang Zhi wondered in a daze, who died on whom?
...It's obvious that I'm the one who's going to be frightened to death!
-
Xiao Yu is a new reporter who just graduated from college this year. He was sent to the Golden Phoenix Awards by the editor-in-chief as an errand boy. He followed his senior and was responsible for running around. While waiting for the interview, his senior went to interview those candidates who might have a higher chance of winning the award, leaving him to find a place to wait.
Xiao Yu wasn't angry, but he also didn't really stay where he was, as his senior had said.
He had already noticed that the rooms where the candidates with high chances of winning were crowded with people, but the rooms where the newcomers were present were empty.
We are all newcomers, and Xiaoyu feels that he can write something by interviewing them. In case any newcomer ascends to heaven in the future, he will have first-hand information.
The Golden Phoenix Awards are star-studded and luxuriously decorated. Xiao Yu heard from his predecessors that the previous Golden Phoenix Awards were not so luxurious, and this year's awards looked so magnificent because of the investment from a big boss. They said that Xiao Yu was really lucky to have come at a good time.
But what is more dazzling than the decoration is the faces of the stars and the high-end jewels they wear. They are so dazzling that it seems like they fell into the Spider Cave.
Xiaoyu's eyes were dazzled, but he still had a clear goal and walked towards the corner.
There stood the candidate for tonight's Golden Phoenix Award for Best Supporting Actor.
Xiao Yu walked, looking through some more information and confirming that the man's surname was Wang, and his name was Wang Zhi. He was a newcomer who had been playing minor roles until he got a bigger role in "Post-80s." This brought up another piece of gossip. Originally, Wang Zhi had a small role in the play, equivalent to the fourth male lead, but the third male lead, for some reason, went crazy and spread rumors that he and the male lead, Feng Zheng, were having an affair.
Feng Zheng is an award-winning actor with a strong background in the circle. The third male lead hit a wall and was expelled from the crew. All his roles were given to Wang Zhi, which made Wang Zhi the second male lead.
Then, unexpectedly, this newly adapted character was very much to the audience's liking, and Wang Zhi, a little-known newcomer, was nominated right away.
That's just luck.
Although his predecessors had told him that Wang Zhi had a strong background and it was previously revealed that she had married a certain big shot, no one had dared to reveal who she had married.
This kind of big boss who cannot be named is the most terrifying in the circle.
Xiaoyu has always believed that man can conquer nature, but he also feels that everyone has their own destiny. Xiaoyu watched "Post-80s" and can see that Wang Zhi's acting is very good. He is serious and his performance is also good. So whether he has a back or not, his nomination is well deserved...
Xiao Yu stopped daydreaming because he had already walked in front of Wang Zhi.
Wang Zhi was chatting with the man next to him. When he saw him coming, he smiled politely.
He looked... so handsome. As he approached, Xiao Yu's eyes were drawn to Wang Zhi's face. She couldn't take her eyes off him. Even her eloquence, which she had previously prided herself on, was useless. She stammered, "Hello... Mr. Wang, I'm Xiao Yu from Big Fish Weekly. Can I interview you?"
"Me?" Wang Zhi laughed, tilted his head, and said, "Okay. But why did you think of interviewing me?"
His voice is clear and gentle, unlike some stars who have a cold and distant voice. Instead, he sounds like a friend, which makes people feel good about him.
Xiao Yu's heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but tell the truth: "I'm a newcomer, so I also want to interview some newcomers. I'm not qualified to interview those big stars..."
Oh no!
Xiaoyu almost bit his tongue.
What are you talking about!
Xiao Yu looked at Wang Zhi nervously, afraid his words would annoy him. But he simply raised an eyebrow, his beautiful eyes curved, and said playfully, "That's good. I was afraid you might have recognized the wrong person."
Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh along with him, as if his mood was easily affected by his every word. He didn't expect Wang Zhi to be so pretty and yet so approachable. Even if Wang Zhi could not become famous in the future, he would always support Wang Zhi.
The interview went smoothly. Wang Zhi did not speak like some stars who spoke incoherently when going off script. No matter what Xiao Yu asked him, he would think carefully and then give an elegant and humorous answer.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but think that, looking at the information, Wang Zhi only graduated from an ordinary university, but judging from the way he talked, he seemed like a child carefully nurtured by a scholarly family. Even if he didn't rely on his looks, he could probably make a living with his talent.
Xiao Yu was completely captivated by Wang Zhi. When the interview was over, he couldn't help but say, "Mr. Wang, I never chase stars, but I think if it's a star like you, I will definitely support you forever!"
Wang Zhi smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiao Yu. I will always remember you as a friend."
ah--
He said he and I were friends.
Xiao Yu covered his heart in disbelief and left intoxicatedly. But halfway through, he couldn't help but turn back and take a look at the corner he had just been to.
There, Wang Zhi was still standing there, talking to the man next to him.
The man was very tall and big, well-dressed, and he exuded the oppressive aura that only belongs to a superior. When Xiaoyu was interviewed just now, he had not spoken a word, but Xiaoyu was still very nervous.
Could it be Wang Zhi’s unnamed husband, a wealthy man?
He looks very serious... Will he be mean to Wang Zhi?
Oh, I wish Wang Zhi hadn't married. He looked so promising, maybe even reaching the top of the film industry. Why marry so early?
Xiao Yu has already put herself in the role of a fan of Wang Zhi. Now she is very resistant to Wang Zhi's husband. She looks at men critically, trying to find faults in them.
But he saw the seemingly unattainable man suddenly lean over and naturally tie Wang Zhi's loose shoelaces. He then wiped the dust off the toe of Wang Zhi's shoe with a handkerchief. The whole movement was smooth and flowing, as if he had done it many times. Wang Zhi also behaved naturally, not even lowering her head, as if she was used to this kind of service from men.
Xiaoyu felt relieved.
He could tell that the man was not acting. After all, the two of them had been standing in the corner, and there was no suspicion that they were deliberately performing to show their affection.
It seems that Wang Zhi chose this husband not only because he is a big boss, but also because he can serve Wang Zhi well, and that is enough!
In the corner, Gao Bochong glanced at the young reporter not far away, sneered, and said to Wang Zhi, "You're almost bewitching him to death."
Wang Zhi blinked: "Husband, what are you talking about?"
Gao Bochong said, "Didn't you see the way that young reporter looked at you?"
Wang Zhi said: "This is just work."
Gao Bochong is a good person in every way except that he is jealous.
Wang Zhi has already posted on a pet forum, asking, "What should I do if I have a jealous dog?" But he hasn't gotten a good answer yet. Many pet owners say their dogs are jealous simply because they love them too much.
Gao Bochong just loves himself too much.
Wang Zhi thought sweetly, and hooked Gao Bochong's chin with his finger: "I only saw the way you looked at me."
His fingers were cold and soft, and Gao Bochong's eyes softened. He wanted to kiss his lips, but was afraid of ruining his makeup, so he could only gently kiss his fingertips.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the young reporter had already walked away. Gao Bochong felt a little regretful. He wished he had introduced himself earlier.
Xiaoyu returned to the waiting area. He had originally planned to interview a few more newcomers, but now he wasn't in the mood. He was still thinking about his conversation with Wang Zhi. When his senior came back, he was beaming.
The senior was a little confused: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Xiao Yu said quickly, "Are you done?"
"We're done." The senior said unhappily, "Those idiots. They rely on their popularity and don't treat us as human beings. None of these celebrities are good."
Wang Zhi wouldn’t do that. Even if he became famous, he would never be so domineering!
Xiaoyu pursed his lips, secretly proud.
The senior asked suspiciously, "What are you happy about?"
Xiao Yu coughed and said, "I was just thinking, they're already like this before they even win the award. If they do win, I don't know how they'll be so proud of themselves. Senior, you've really worked so hard."
The senior was finally satisfied and snorted, "Look at how confident they are of winning. I really want to pull off an upset tonight and let the newcomer win the award. That would make them look really good."
Xiao Yu thought, yes, it would be great if there was an upset tonight. He didn’t want to see the faces of those arrogant big stars, he just wanted to see Wang Zhi happy.
At 8:00 sharp, the Golden Phoenix Awards ceremony began. Xiao Yu was absent-minded, glancing around, trying to find Wang Zhi. A senior patted him, and he quickly sat up straight. Finally, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the "Post-80s" crew. Wang Zhi sat next to the assistant director, smiling at the stage. On the other side, actor Feng Zheng had a cold expression on his face, his eyes fixed fixedly on him, as if he didn't want to meet his gaze.
Xiaoyu frowned, a little worried.
Is it because Wang Zhi got the nomination that Feng Zheng was dissatisfied with him and made things difficult for him?
Xiao Yu used to like Feng Zheng's performance, but now he's keeping his eyes on Feng Zheng, deciding that if Feng Zheng really bullies Wang Zhi, he'll use a fake account to expose the truth. Suddenly, Wang Zhi turns around and says something to Feng Zheng. Feng Zheng's stern expression softens instantly, and the tenderness in his eyes seems to be overflowing, but he keeps his eyes down, as if afraid that Wang Zhi will see his emotions.
…
Xiaoyu scratched his head.
From this perspective, Feng Zheng doesn't seem to be dissatisfied with Wang Zhi, it's more like...
Unrequited love?
These four words popped up in Xiao Yu's mind, and he felt it was impossible. Everyone knew that Feng Zheng was a well-known beauty, so how could she possibly have a secret crush on someone, especially a married junior?
But when he thought of Wang Zhi, Xiao Yu felt that nothing was impossible.
Their naivety is the best!
Xiao Yu started to like Feng Zheng again, thinking that he just made the mistake that all fans would make, and had improper thoughts about a married man.
The time has finally come for Best Supporting Actor.
The faces of five candidates appeared on the big screen. Among them, Wang Zhi was the youngest. There was no sign of nervousness on his face. He sat there with a smile on his lips and clear eyes as he applauded with everyone.
The host introduced the candidates one by one. Wang Zhi was the last one and the one with the least experience. Although he knew that the possibility of him winning the award was very low, Xiao Yu still couldn't help but feel heartbroken and prayed quietly.
The senior next to him was also praying. Xiaoyu eavesdropped and heard the senior say, "Let Zhang Huaitao eat shit."
…
Zhang Huaitao was the star who acted like a big shot. Xiao Yu was a little speechless, but he also secretly prayed: "Let Wang Zhi win the award."
Finally, the supporter paused, then excitedly announced: "...The winner of the Best Supporting Actor award is Wang Zhi!"
On the screen, Wang Zhi continued to smile and applaud along with everyone else. It wasn't until someone next to him said something that he slowly stopped, revealing an incredulous expression. The director quickly zoomed in, and everyone heard Wang Zhi exclaim in shock, "Me? Did something go wrong?"
Good-natured laughter rang out in the audience, and Wang Zhi was finally sure that it was not the host who read out the list who made the mistake. He stood up and walked onto the stage in a daze.
The stage was very high, illuminated by the lights, as if walking on a gilded avenue. All sounds faded away, and looking down from above, the crowd became a dark sea, with countless cameras and eyes staring at him, giving Wang Zhi an illusion of unreality.
The award presenter handed the heavy trophy into his hands. He subconsciously clenched his fist. The metal golden phoenix statue burned into his palm, causing a slight pain. In the spotlight, Wang Zhi saw a pair of eyes hidden behind gold-rimmed glasses. The light was obviously cold, but there was a gentle silhouette.
That was his husband, the man who would accompany him throughout his life and the man he loved most.
Gao Bo Chong.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his heart felt at ease. It seemed as if under the wings he had grown, there were a pair of strong hands gently supporting him.
The lights were bright, and Wang Zhi's face was white and radiant. Even in such strong light and shadow, his facial features were still three-dimensional and distinct. His beauty seemed to transcend the boundary between reality and illusion, showing a strange beauty.
This kind of beauty is enough to shock everyone.
He raised the trophy and said with a smile: "Thank you to the crew, thank you to the director, and thank you to the audience friends who are willing to believe in me and support me. At the same time, I also want to thank one person. He is my most solid backer and the man I can trust at any time. The trophy belongs to me, to the crew, and to him, my husband. I love you all!"
Wang Zhi blew a kiss toward the camera and looked firmly at Gao Bochong in the audience.
Gao Bochong gazed at him with a smile, as if he was gazing at his most perfect collection, which was also the most sacred glory of his life.
Xiaoyu's eyes were already filled with tears.
Wang Zhi actually won the award!
Xiaoyu had already prepared a draft in his mind and was determined to write the best draft for Wang Zhi!
At the end of the award ceremony, Xiao Yu originally hurriedly left, wanting to go back to write his article, but was stopped by a staff member: "Mr. Wang invites you to attend the celebration party that will follow."
Xiao Yu didn't expect that Wang Zhi actually still remembered him. He was so surprised that when he saw Wang Zhi, he couldn't wait to say, "I knew you could do it!"
Wang Zhi looked like he had been drinking, with a faint blush on his face. His eyes were as clear and bright as water. He smiled and said, "Maybe it's the good luck you gave me?"
He is so nice.
Xiaoyu's heart beat faster and he felt like he had fallen in love.
And Wang Zhi also felt like he was still dreaming.
He actually won the Golden Phoenix Award for Best Supporting Actor!
In the third year of his career, he won the Golden Phoenix Award.
In the corner, Wang Zhi leaned softly in Gao Bochong's arms: "Husband, did you buy this for me?"
He thought about it and felt that this was the most likely answer.
Gao Bochong sneered: "Then I will buy you an Oscar directly."
Wang Zhi's eyes lit up: "Is it okay?"
Gao Bochong asked, "You want it? It's too late this year, maybe next year."
...He actually told the truth!
Wang Zhi quickly changed her words: "Jin Feng is already very good, husband, I don't want to be called the Water Emperor."
Gao Bochong laughed. "You just have little experience, baby, but that doesn't mean you're insignificant. You deserve this award, the next award, and all the awards in the future."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Of course, you do have a lot of water."
…
Gao Bo Chong is making dirty jokes again!
Wang Zhi pretended not to hear, but suddenly he saw something out of the corner of his eye. He thought he was seeing things, so he pushed open the door to the terrace and walked outside.
The slightly cool air blew away the alcohol, sex, and money that filled the room. Wang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the sky and smiled: "I thought I saw a shooting star."
Gao Bochong followed out and said, "No more?"
"there is none left……"
Wang Zhi suddenly paused.
In the distant sky, a little light appeared again. It was a bright light, like a weak firefly in the night sky, which suddenly went out when it rose to the highest point.
But it was only for a moment. The next moment, huge fireworks exploded, and the entire night sky was completely lit up in an instant.
Countless flowers and ribbons fell, and shouts and screams of surprise were heard from far and near.
Gao Bochong bent down, and in front of Wang Zhi's surprised eyes, he stretched out his hand with a smile: "My Cinderella, will you dance with me?"
Wang Zhi couldn't help but smile. He placed one hand on his chest and bowed: "It's my pleasure."
The fireworks bloomed, seemingly never stopping.
They walked lightly in the scent of roses.
Wang Zhi felt that the world was spinning and he was extremely happy, as if he had never experienced such a happy moment in his life.
But Gao Bochong said: "I will make you happy every day from now on."
Wang Zhi smiled. He stared at Gao Bochong, his eyes sparkling like a tear of happiness, cherishing a thousand shimmering lights: "I know. Husband, I love you."
"I love you too," Gao Bochong said. "I will love you like this every day and every second."
Love used to be a fleeting firework, but now it is frozen by vows and is unbreakable.
This life is long but short, and he will use all the time in the future to fulfill his promise.
