Qin Ke somehow found out that Yin Chengjue was looking for a wedding photographer, so Qin Ke decisively ended the photography trip to the border region, rushed back to City A, and launched a barrage of hundreds of messages at Yin Chengjue on WeChat.
Qin Ke was quite displeased that Yin Chengjue hadn't contacted him first when preparing to take wedding photos.
His photographs are at least in the top ten of international photography competitions. With a friend like him, how could Yin Chengjue possibly go looking for someone else? That would be an insult to his profession!
Yin Chengjue, whose WeChat was flooded with messages: "..." Weren't you going to the Gobi Desert to pursue your freedom? How could I possibly cut off your wings soaring over the vast Gobi? [Goodbye]
However, to Yin Chengjue's surprise, Qin Ke did not return alone; he was accompanied by another person who looked somewhat familiar.
“You should know him. He’s the photographer and scene NPC that Linlin works at night. I redeemed him,” Qin Ke introduced.
Yin Chengjue still couldn't remember.
Qin Ke had no choice but to say, "Cough! It's the one whose nose I punched... Ouch!" Qin Ke cried out in pain and looked down, but could only see the afterimage of a black shoe.
Qin Ke looked over with a face full of accusation, but the handsome photographer remained expressionless and indifferent, as if he wasn't the one who had stepped on his foot.
Yin Chengjue's gaze swept over the two of them, somewhat curious.
He had been Qin Ke's classmate for so many years and knew that although Qin Ke was cheerful and seemed to get along with everyone, in reality, there were basically no people who could truly stay by Qin Ke's side.
Because Qin Ke is too "reckless". He can go to the Amazon rainforest during the rainy season alone for a single photo. He can cover his whole body in insect camouflage and stay motionless in the dense forest for a whole day, just to capture that one wonderful moment.
Nowhere could he stay for long. This time, he went straight to the Gobi Desert, braving the sandstorms, to pursue the freedom he longed for and to capture that moment in his camera.
Because Qin Ke's family didn't understand and always wanted to take Qin Ke back, every time Qin Ke came back, out of consideration for their past as classmates, Yin Chengjue could only reluctantly pick him up from the airport and then pack him up and dump him at the hotel.
This was the first time Yin Chengjue had seen someone else with Qin Ke.
Is it finally no longer a lonely trip for me?
Yin Chengjue silently withdrew his gaze. As Qin Ke enthusiastically described his ideas and how he planned to take magnificent wedding photos for Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu, Yin Chengjue whispered, "Congratulations." Congratulations on finally finding a travel companion willing to embark on a journey of freedom with you.
It was a sound that Qin Ke could hear.
Qin Ke paused, then coughed lightly, "Same, same congratulations."
The man standing next to Qin Ke cast a questioning glance at him.
Qin Ke leaned closer, hooked his arm around the man's neck, and said, "Aqing, let's help them take pictures like this later..."
Three days later, Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu simultaneously posted several videos on their Weibo accounts.
Before clicking on the video, fans were a little puzzled because there had been no official announcements about Rong Yu having any new works to be released recently. However, judging from the video's cover and the text on Weibo, it didn't seem like she was advertising a product.
After clicking into the first video with some questions, I realized that it wasn't a trailer for a new drama or an advertisement, but rather... a wedding dress music video!
Yes, they took wedding photos and even made a music video about it!
In the first video, a bright red color flashed across the screen, and as the camera zoomed out, a man dressed in ancient wedding attire appeared on the screen!
That was the wedding attire for men from the Kakinoshi era. Compared to other dynasties, the wedding attire of the Kakinoshi era was more magnificent. The main color was a dazzling bright red, with a deep red hair crown and two black jade hairpins to secure the hair. The eyebrows were drawn, but not as finely as women's, but to create a sharp and pointed look, somewhat like the shape of modern sword eyebrows. The lips were also painted, although the color was not as vibrant as women's, it still had a certain luster, making the groom stand out on this day and be exceptionally handsome. The earrings were a matching vermilion, with the man wearing them on the left and the woman on the right, symbolizing a pair.
The attire was magnificent, predominantly bright red with gilded accents, adorned with jade pendants at the waist, wearing brocade boots, riding a tall horse, and carrying a large red flower, accompanied by gongs and drums to welcome the bride.
The above describes the custom of male marriage during the Yuan Dynasty. In this video, Yin Chengjue, dressed in Yuan-style clothing, was also made up with rouge and powder, but he did not look feminine at all. Instead, he looked even more handsome. However, the two red dots at the corners of his eyes made his face look a bit more wicked.
When his gaze swept across the camera, it was as if he were showing off, silently conveying: I'm going to rightfully claim Rong Yu as my own!
Yin Chengjue, who always presents a cold and serious image, showed this contrasting side of himself in front of the camera for the first time, making people who saw the picture rub their eyes and think they must be seeing things.
President Yin's face is indeed unanimously considered handsome, but how could he be this handsome? Isn't that Yuandai men's wedding attire often referred to by scholars as "feminine"?
Over the years, there have been couples who wanted to take a set of wedding photos in traditional Japanese attire, but most men couldn't pull off that kind of makeup because it would make them look too feminine. Most men were willing to take the photos to satisfy their wives' preferences and to leave them with a record of their embarrassing moments.
But now, Yin Chengjue has personally proven that even with such makeup and clothes, he can still be incredibly handsome, like a god.
As the camera zoomed in, Yin Chengjue, riding a tall horse, met Rong Yu, who was walking on the other side. The two looked into each other's eyes, a gaze that seemed to last a lifetime.
The two dismounted, took each other's hands, and walked forward together.
The scene shifts, and someone loudly proclaims, "Bowing to Heaven and Earth!—"
The camera focused only on the two people and recorded their deep bow.
"Bowing to our parents a second time!"
The two turned around at the same time, faced another direction, and bowed deeply again.
"Husband and wife bow to each other! —"
This time, their eyes met, and they both saw themselves reflected in each other's eyes.
"The groom, the groom, enters the bridal chamber!—"
At this moment, it seems that all the lonely male lead and supporting male characters that Rong Yu has played in period dramas have found their home.
And the face of that final destination has become clear.
Fans were going crazy because they realized that no matter which destined-to-be-alone historical drama role Rong Yu played in the future, this video would become an unforgettable ending in their minds.
However, Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu did not only release this one MV, but also many MVs, each of which was filmed with them wearing different wedding outfits!
From traditional Chinese wedding attire to modern Western suits, it's hard to tell whether they were filming a music video as a memento or simply trying out all sorts of wedding styles.
The scene where the two of them, both dressed in white suits, exchanged rings after their vows in the church was especially beautiful and deeply moving.
After watching those videos, many people felt they had been stuffed with dog food (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection) and made sour comments, saying that the two must have been married more than once to make these music videos.
Will they deliberately do multiple takes?
How big of an appetite must the photographers who shot these music videos and the post-production editors who edited them have to hold so much PDA?
Just as everyone was silently offering their congratulations to the photographer and post-production team, a new video was updated on Yin Chengjue's Weibo.
While everyone was complaining, "You guys are such dogs," their fingers were uncontrollably clicking on the app.
Then, they were a little confused.
Because this video is not another instance of them abusing their pets.
The first thing that appears in the picture is a little girl wearing a bright red dress.
Everyone is familiar with this girl; she's a character from the classic drama "The Heavenly Decision," which accompanied them through many summers.
A character that many people can't forget.
A role that has been hinted at and claimed by many celebrities, but after gaining popularity, it is either discovered by the media that the roles don't match up, or the celebrities themselves reveal that they actually have nothing to do with the role.
This editor really understands everyone's thoughts. After releasing this, they immediately released Rong Yu's male-dressed photos at the same age, and then released photos of her as she got younger.
Later, the video started playing every role Rong Yu has played since his debut, as if recording his growth.
Some people wanted to refute it, but looking at those extremely similar faces, they couldn't find any way to argue against it!
Who would have thought that the girl everyone had been searching for for so many years was actually a boy?
Does Rong Yu really not have a twin sister?
No one believed that there was a penis under her skirt, so they frantically tried to uncover Rong Yu's family background.
Unfortunately, there has never been an accurate report about Rong Yu's family background. Over the years, there have been countless speculations, but none of them have been confirmed.
Until a fan who was obsessed with watching videos of their idol getting married repeatedly noticed a key point—in the video of the wedding ceremony in the ancient palace, the person sitting where the two people bowed for the second time looked so much like the old chairman of the Murong family, Murong Anbang, who had retired behind the scenes.
With this in mind, when I watched the scene where they got married in the church again, the person who first took Rong Yu's hand and handed it to Yin Chengjue, didn't he also seem to be Murong Anbang? And those people standing on the side clapping... weren't those two handsome guys Murong He and Murong Shu? We could understand Yin He standing there, but what were the Murong family members doing standing there?
Surely they couldn't have paid the Murong family to film their wedding MV, right? Especially the kind that's filmed repeatedly!
But the only answer was so astonishing that they couldn't believe it at all!
Just then, Murong He forwarded the videos posted by Rong Yu and Yin Chengjue one by one, and when forwarding the last video, he added a sentence: Where are you going to eat for the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu, who were enjoying the sweetness of being fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), were speechless. As expected of the eldest brother, he always asked a question that could lead to his death.
Finally, Yin Chengjue tagged Yin Changhong, Yin Qiushi, Murong Anbang, Rong Yueya, Yin He, Murong He, and Murong Shu in order of age: How about we all do it together this year? I can try making mooncakes.
The person tagged: ...
Rong Yu: I can go help in the kitchen!
The person tagged: No need for help, thank you!
Rong Yu felt rejected and stormed into the kitchen, wanting to prove herself capable. However, Yin Chengjue, who followed her in, pinned her to the counter and proved to her that she was indeed capable of cooking certain fish dishes.
