Wen Xingze: "Wait, what did you just say???"
The CEO then repeated: "Isn't this the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?"
Seeing Wen Xingze's dazed expression, the CEO continued to explain excitedly, "Mr. Wen, I personally have quite a bit of experience with this. I've watched hundreds of episodes of 'Mother-in-law is Coming,' 'Stories from My Mother's Home,' and 'The Weak Daughter-in-Law and the Fierce Mom.' I'm sure this will be helpful to you—"
Wen Xingze: "...Okay, no need to continue, thank you."
He began to regret asking that question a few seconds ago, especially as the CEO spoke, a picture involuntarily emerged in Wen Xingze's mind:
Wen Xingze, the office worker, had just gotten off work. Chi Yan, wearing a househusband's apron, emerged from the kitchen with a sullen expression. Lilith, Astor, Lei Qi, Elder You, and a host of other wicked mothers-in-law were harassing him, then simultaneously demanding, "If your mother and your boyfriend both fell into the water, who would you save first?"
Wen Xingze was so shocked by the scene that he trembled all over and tried hard to drive it out of his mind.
The CEO still wanted to continue speaking actively, but seeing Wen Xingze's firm attitude, he could only shake his head regretfully and stop talking.
An hour later, on the top floor of Minghua Apartment.
The Chi family's housekeeper is very efficient. The housekeepers and chefs here do not live at home and will leave after finishing a day's work.
Chi Yan returned home later than Wen Xingze. When Wen Xingze arrived, the servants had already packed all of Wen Xingze's luggage, but Chi Yan had not returned yet.
When Wen Xingze was learning acting with Chi Yan, he came here every day for a week and was quite familiar with the place. But when he walked in as a 'guest' for the first time, he always felt that something was different here... No, it was obviously different!
The whole room still has an industrial style dominated by gray and black, with extremely simple furniture and floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor.
But among Chi Yan's collection of clocks, there was a SpongeBob cartoon watch, and Wen Xingze's things were already scattered everywhere:
The sofa was piled with stuffed dolls and pillows given to him by his parents, and by the floor-to-ceiling window was placed a model of the Genting Highlands Palace given to him by the dragon clan, as well as his Jump comic magazines, his treasured posters of Chi Yan, and movie ticket stubs from over the years.
It conflicts greatly with the original design style of the house, just like a Crayon Shin-chan painting was mixed into a postmodern abstract art exhibition.
Wen Xingze: “…”
When Wen Xingze strolled around the living room, the chef just brought out the last dish and waited nearby. Wen Xingze looked at him for a moment and realized that the chef was waiting for him to confirm that dinner was okay before leaving work.
Wen Xingze thought for a moment, looked at the name tag on the chef's chest and said, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhang, you can go home now."
The chef was in his thirties and had been working for the Chi family for eight years. This was the first time he was called "Mr. Zhang".
Before, Chi Yan would just nod and say "hmm" indifferently.
The chef was so moved that he almost cried. He said, "You're welcome, Master Wen. Goodbye."
Wen Xingze had just taken half a step when he thought about the frequent interactions with the chef and housekeeper in the future, and turned back and said:
"It doesn't matter. There's not a huge age difference between us. You don't need to address me with honorifics. Just treat me as an ordinary tenant here."
The chef had actually been told by the housekeeper in advance to "treat Wen Xingze as another head of the family", but unexpectedly Wen Xingze made such a request.
The chef pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly, "You're welcome, Master Wen. 886?"
Wen Xingze: “…” You also surf the Internet?
Then the chef took off his apron and officially left work.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
Wen Xingze first went for a walk in his bedroom, then returned to the living room wearing carpet socks, curled up on the sofa, and listened to the angry nagging of the dragon parents with headphones on.
As expected, the Dragon Clan parents were also talking about living together with Chi Yan.
"Wang, are you listening?" It was the old woman, Yaster. Yaster had already vented her anger, but sparks were still coming out of her throat as she spoke. "Chi Yan is really very dangerous! The farther away from him, the better. Living with him is simply ridiculous!"
Wen Xingze said seriously: "But he can't breathe fire."
The dragons were stunned.
Wen Xingze: "There are no sharp claws or wings that cover the sky and the sun."
The dragons began to feel a little shy and scratched their heads with their claws.
Wen Xingze: "Ordinary humans, their physical fitness and combat capabilities are completely incomparable to dragons."
In another universe, the dragons huddled around the phone straightened their backs the more they listened, and finally all of them proudly held their heads high and chests puffed out.
Such simple and understanding parents.
Aster rubbed his nose half proudly and half embarrassedly: "Hey, having said that——"
"So, with you guys here, there's no need to worry about anything happening to me," Wen Xingze said, biting a lollipop, "and I trust Teacher Chi, and we're just living together."
Living together as a couple of same-sex friends is actually nothing special in the eyes of the general public, but it seems a little special because the person involved is Chi Yan.
Four years ago, Wen Xingze lived with the boss of Daomei Entertainment and Wu Youjin. The three of them squeezed into a 20-square-meter basement to save money.
Lei Qi, sharpening his claws angrily beside him, said sarcastically, "Yeah, they haven't gotten married yet, so why are you so anxious? But judging by the situation, getting married is just a matter of time, haha."
In reality, Lei Qi was the most anxious, not wanting his son to fall in love with someone of unknown origin. But he was the most awkward of the dragons, rivaling even the mermaid elders in his awkwardness. The more anxious he was, the more he spoke in sarcastic tones.
The dragons: "..."
Wen Xingze: “…………”
As soon as these words were spoken, both sides of the phone suddenly became quiet.
Astor almost fainted from anger.
Everyone didn't want their child to know about this, and all the parents in the universe tacitly kept silent about it. But Lei Qi actually! Just like that! Spoken it out loud!!!
Fortunately, after a few seconds of silence, everything was back to normal when Wen Xingze spoke again.
The dragons carefully changed the topic to other things, and Wen Xingze did not insist or explain too much, just chatting with them in a casual manner.
but……
Wen Xingze curled up on the sofa.
Looking out the floor-to-ceiling windows, the entire capital was lit up with lights, and there was a constant flow of traffic and people, like another world in the fireworks.
His voice sounded normal, and he could even clearly hear himself talking to the dragon parents, but his ears felt unusually hot and his heartbeat suddenly became irregular for a few seconds.
strangeness.
The Fantasy Cruise director had actually thought they were in a relationship, but Wen Xingze hadn't taken it seriously at the time because the director wasn't familiar with him. But even the closest Dragon Clan parents thought so.
Are he and Chi Yan really... ambiguous?
On the other end of the phone, Astor said, "Wang, don't worry too much. You are not old enough to consider getting married yet."
Wen Xingze's previous thoughts quickly vanished, and he became curious: "At what age can I consider getting married?"
Aster: "About 800 years old."
Wen Xingze: “?” Ghost marriage?
Wen Xingze: "It's great. I can even play the suona for myself at the wedding."
Aster: “?”
At this moment, there was a noise at the entrance. It must be Chi Yan coming back. Wen Xingze put down his phone temporarily and went to greet him: "Welcome back, Teacher Chi."
There is a door from the living room to the entrance of the apartment, and at the end of the entrance is the entrance elevator. Chi Yan is still standing in the elevator, just looking at Wen Xingze.
His eyes suddenly became soft in the slight halo.
Wen Xingze was a little confused: "?"
The light from the room extended to the doorway, and Wen Xingze stood where the light came from. He had slept well last night, his hair curling slightly, and his eyes, which usually seemed sleepy, were bright today, like candied oranges.
Maybe it was because of the autumn wind outside, his ears and nose tip were a little red.
Out of personal habit, Chi Yan's home is always decorated in cool colors, from furniture to lamps, carpets, and even decorations such as the most accurate and precise clocks.
Now, a brightly colored candy was placed inside this clock devoid of any human emotion. The candy got stuck in the axis, causing the clock, which had never made an error, to go haywire, and all the hands lost their normal frequency and pace.
Wen Xingze moved in, and Chi Yan realized this very clearly at this time.
Suddenly even the lights became particularly gentle and nostalgic.
“…”
Wen Xingze didn't know why Chi Yan was stuck, so he had to walk over and press the elevator button. He said to Chi Yan, "If you don't come out, the elevator door will close."
Chi Yan had to try very hard to stop the urge to kiss Wen Xingze. He couldn't think of anything to talk about, but he still wanted to hear what Wen Xingze had to say, so he stood there with a serious expression, thinking of a topic.
Then.
Wen Xingze pressed a button casually, then watched the elevator door close in front of him, and took Chi Yan, who had not yet walked out, back downstairs.
Wen Xingze: “…”
Chi Yan: “…………”
It was the first time that Wen Xingze saw Chi Yan’s confused look.
Wen Xingze finally realized that he had pressed the wrong button. He originally wanted the elevator to stop on this floor, but he pressed the down button by mistake!
The number of floors displayed in the upper right corner gradually becomes smaller, and it is obvious that someone downstairs is also pressing the elevator.
Finally, the elevator stopped on the basement floor.
In the headset, the dragon clan parent over there: "? What happened?"
Wen Xingze said blankly: "I think I sent Teacher Chi away."
The dragons: "..."
The dragons: "!!!!!!"
After a few tens of seconds of silence, the sounds of fireworks and firecrackers were heard over there.
Wen Xingze: “???????”
Wen Xingze began living with Chi Yan in this way.
Earlier that day, the official Weibo account of "Meet the Dragon Night" released the official trailer and two advance episodes, officially warming up for "Meet the Dragon Night" which will be aired at the beginning of next month.
——If the various topics and finalized photos before only gave a baseline to the popularity of Yu Long Ye, then the release of the official trailer and advance version can be said to have caused a huge stir.
There is no other reason.
This production is so conscientious!
Not to mention the shooting style, the level of Zheng Xiao and Chi Yan is unquestionable, and the use of camera language is simply movie-level.
The theme song produced by Inoshita Ryunosuke is a showpiece throughout, and the acting of all the actors is on point, especially the main trio... and Hengzhi, who was once the biggest worry for many fans of the original novel, actually gave a very outstanding performance.
Although Xia Miaomiao is in Spain, she often pays attention to popular dramas in China.
And because of the recent rescue of the dolphin "Smiling Angel," she'd been keeping an eye on Wen Xingze, a young star who, while good-looking, had few representative works. As soon as the official trailer for "Meeting the Dragon Night" was released, Xia Miaomiao clicked on it.
"So he's actually an actor," Xia Miaomiao thought. It was truly bizarre. Her impression of Wen Xingze was still limited to suona and the Great Compassion Mantra. She simply thought he was a pretty, cute idol. "How's his acting? Both Zhu Bo and Xu Qianqian are very talented..."
...Shocking.
After watching the eight-minute trailer and two episodes in advance, Xia Miaomiao's feeling can only be described as shocked.
There is no doubt that the entire team is very strong, but what left the deepest impression on people was indeed the outstanding performance of the actors, especially Heng Zhi - when he first appeared on the stage, he was wearing a snow-white Taoist robe, his hair tied with jade buttons, and he was holding a lantern with a lazy look. It is no exaggeration to say that he was captivating at first sight.
And the look in his eyes when he sheathed the sword at the end, although he was smiling, but the youthful spirit and the unrestrained and sharp edge were simply explosive.
"So handsome! That moment of maternal love going awry!" Xia Miaomiao was completely intoxicated, her heart melting. "He's perfect for this kind of role. He already has a strong youthful vibe. I want to have a romantic relationship with my younger brother."
Xia Miaomiao had not read the original novel of Yu Longye, and did not turn on the barrage when watching the trailer. At first, she did not know that Hengzhi was a blackened villain... When the trailer reached the second half, Hengzhi, a descendant of the dragon clan, held a long sword upside down and walked casually through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. His cruel and gloomy temperament was natural.
Xia Miaomiao got goosebumps all over her body, and it felt like an electric shock was going through her back. Sure enough, the comments were similar to hers:
[Am I a pervert? ? ? Looking at the darkened Hengzhi, he couldn't help but reveal a devilish smile.]
[+1, so excited, I like it very much]
The role of Hengzhi is really difficult to play. It's amazing that a new actor with no previous representative works can bring out Hengzhi's personality charm in this way.
Yan Xun and Ling Yao are also amazing! I love their trio so much!!! I was worried the film and TV adaptation would be deliberately gay for popularity, but thankfully, this is the most comfortable way for me!!!
[i i i, I want to be a fan of Hengzhi's little brother, asking for a guide to getting into the pit]
[@Upstairs, you can first look at the various photos, and then watch the fire-breathing and suona videos. The Feng Shui Masters Association also has a frontal photo, "Adventure Through the Gates" 48th episode...]
【???】
…
Thanks to the huge success of the trailer and preview, it seemed like the whole world started talking about Yu Long Ye overnight. With two weeks left until the official premiere, the fan base for the super topic and the actors has been rising steadily in the past two weeks...
Many overseas fans in Spain came to watch Wen Xingze, and this was even more so in the Chinese Feng Shui circle.
That was the work of the mysterious, new first heavenly master. Almost every employed Feng Shui master watched the preview and preview with a serious and pious attitude, and then spontaneously promoted it in the circle of friends.
Although their slogan of "upright and serving the people" is a bit strange.
Unlike the previous times when he became famous in strange and bizarre ways, this was the first time that Wen Xingze officially and thoroughly entered the public eye.
Many media outlets were eager to interview him in hopes of getting the latest gossip, but Jiang Ye was very strict about this. To prevent paparazzi from making random reports and leading to a chaotic atmosphere, he would not reveal anything except for the officially scheduled interviews.
Two weeks later in the evening.
Tomorrow is the day to go to Muse. Wen Xingze has already started to get nervous in advance. In the past few days, in addition to cooperating with Yu Longye's publicity and Jiang Ye's arrangements, he has been preparing his luggage for the parallel universe.
Of course, this is not accurate. Most of the time, parents and Chi Yan took care of it directly, and he only needed to look forward to the journey and be nervous.
Wen Xingze had just returned from Shengtian Entertainment when the property management called and said that he had a new express delivery and wanted to come downstairs to pick it up.
There are many important people living in Minghua Apartment. For safety and privacy reasons, express deliveries generally cannot be delivered directly to the doorstep, and most of the time they are picked up by the housekeeper.
But the housekeeper was already very tired from helping Wen Xingze move these two days, and Wen Xingze didn't want to trouble him too much.
So Wen Xingze put on a mask and went downstairs by himself.
He thought he was cautious enough, but he still underestimated Chi Yan's influence. Although Chi Yan's residence was kept secret, some paparazzi occasionally dug up relevant information with great effort.
The express delivery was a square box, neither too big nor too small, and on it was actually written the words Mechanical Star E19 Central Tree Base... As expected, it was the familiar Guangta Logistics.
As soon as Wen Xingze brought the package back, he was blocked by paparazzi, who greeted him cheerfully: "Hi, I'm a reporter from the Pineapple Newspaper—What the hell, Wen Xingze?"
Now that he was recognized, Wen Xingze couldn't just run away. He could only say, "It's me."
The reporter was Mi Mingyou from Pineapple News, the one who had witnessed the handsome moment when Wen Xingze beat up Xu Sichao and others on the cruise ship not long ago.
Although he didn't catch Chi Yan, he actually caught Wen Xingze, who is currently a hot topic. What kind of luck is he! Moreover, Wen Xingze actually lives in the same residential complex as Chi Yan. How could...
——Don’t be fooled by the fact that Mi Mingyou appears to be just a serious reporter. In fact, if we were to make a list of paparazzi that Chinese entertainment stars hate the most, Mi Mingyou would definitely be at the top of the list.
As a representative of the Pineapple Newspaper, Mi Mingyou dares to expose and dig up any information and is not swayed by money. He is always active in the forefront of gossip. He has caught more than a dozen celebrities cheating, eight or nine celebrities taking drugs... and so on. However, he does have achievements. At least his existence has made many celebrities who bully others restrain their behavior.
Because he is bold and cunning, Mi Mingyou actually has quite a number of fans on Weibo who are looking forward to him finding out some celebrity's secrets every day.
Mi Mingyou was overjoyed. He had just witnessed Wen Xingze beating up Xu Sichao. He actually liked Wen Xingze very much and vowed not to report any negative information about Wen Xingze. Moreover, Wen Xingze was very popular now, so even ordinary information would have enough traffic.
Mi Mingyou turned on the camera and microphone: "Can I ask you a few questions? I promise it won't be too outrageous!"
Wen Xingze was very cautious, having been trained by Jiang Ye and the team to respond conditionedly: "Of course, I can, but I will only answer questions related to 'Encountering the Dragon Night'."
Mi Mingyou was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood: "I understand, I understand... Wait, what is this express delivery?!"
"I can't comment on anything other than my work... Wait, what is this express delivery?!"
Wen Xingze and Mi Mingyou looked at the square box express at the same time.
It moved slightly.
After a moment, it moved even more vigorously.
There was also a clicking sound similar to that of a mechanical shaft, followed by the beeping sound of data scanning, as if something was trying to come out urgently.
Wen Xingze received a familiar text message on his phone:
"[Guangta Logistics] Hello, Mr. Wen! The Earth simulator mailed to you by the robot parents has arrived. Please check it."
Unlike before, this 'Earth Simulator' not only had a notification message, but also had a long explanation attached. However, Wen Xingze only glanced at it quickly and did not read it in its entirety.
"..." Although Wen Xingze didn't understand, he immediately turned off the screen, "I can't accept the interview. I have something urgent to do. I need you right now—"
Sudden.
Suddenly, a cutting sound came from inside the square express box, and then a neat circle appeared on the surface.
Wen Xingze had no choice but to reach out and take out a globe from it.
A translucent sphere with a lamp inside. The silver base has intricate patterns, and the sphere slowly rotates with the light.
It is colorful and very beautiful.
Even in the universe of the Muse Empire, a planet simulator was a concept that existed only in theory. The reason was simple: while it was a simulator, it was essentially a miniature planet held in one's hand. If a drop of water fell on the capital region of the globe, a torrential rain would immediately descend upon the capital...
Although it is not a particle cannon or a photon sword, its destructive power is actually greater than that, and it also deceived the detection system of the light tower.
This is the concept of Robot Parent No. 011, a 'toy' that children will like.
"Wow, it looks so nice...it turns out to be an ordinary globe," Mi Mingyou breathed a sigh of relief. Although the workmanship was exquisite, it didn't look like anything supernatural. "Is this a gift from your family?"
Wen Xingze: "Yes, I really want to go back."
Mi Mingyou held the camera and suddenly, as if bewitched, pressed lightly on a certain position on the globe.
...This was a decision that the future him would regret for most of his life.
The globe suddenly began to spin faster, and after a moment, the location corresponding to South America glowed faintly.
Wen Xingze and Mi Mingyou only felt a black screen before their eyes, and then a momentary sense of weightlessness.
The next second, South America, Amazon rainforest.
The air was filled with rain and fog, with towering trees, strangely shaped tropical plants and small puddles everywhere.
Mi Ming first saw the vision captured by the camera suddenly darken and turn a little crimson, and then a deafening roar accompanied by a fishy smell was heard in his ears:
“Ouch—”
He looked up and saw a jaguar with patterns all over its body, looking down at him with curiosity.
Mi Mingyou fell to the ground all of a sudden, his legs going limp instantly. He and Wen Xingze had just been standing in a bustling residential area in the Chinese capital, but in the blink of an eye they had arrived at...an uninhabited tropical rainforest!
Wen Xingze was obviously shocked by the scene before him, but what shocked him the most was indeed the jaguar.
The jaguar sniffed Mi Mingyou without interest at first, but suddenly became docile when it saw Wen Xingze, and rubbed Wen Xingze affectionately with its big tail. Wen Xingze was a little scared at first, but then he bravely touched its head.
“So this is what it is.”
Wen Xingze looked at the globe, and sure enough, there was now a beam of blue light in the location of South America, indicating that they were there.
Press anywhere on this globe to go there!
Mi Mingyou burst into tears: "What, what?"
Wen Xingze was in a hurry to go back just now, but now he suddenly changed his mind. He thought this... was so fun!
To a certain extent, Wen Xingze is very receptive to new things.
Mi Mingyou saw that Wen Xingze didn't say anything, but his eyes were shining inexplicably, and his legs suddenly became weaker: "Master Wen Tian, no, you don't want to go back? You don't want to continue, do you?! Please don't!"
Wen Xingze looked at him for a moment, as if a little confused, and then said in a matter-of-fact tone:
"Aren't you going on a trip before coming back? Consider it my treat," Wen Xingze added more logically, pressing a location on the globe, "Since we're here."
Mi Mingyou: “…”
Mi Mingyou finally realized that Wen Xingze's thinking process was not normal: "...Help me——"
