I felt a faint warmth emanating from my body, and a hand was gently stroking my forehead.
Shang Yechu felt a familiar presence and subconsciously reached out to grasp that warmth.
When I opened my eyes, there was a familiar face in front of me.
"You're back?"
Yang Huanyi was covering Shang Yechu with a blanket when she was caught red-handed, and felt a little embarrassed. She nodded expressionlessly and was about to slip away.
If we don't catch Yang Huanyi now, who knows when it will be!
Shang Yechu grabbed her hand, pondered her lines for a long time, and finally remembered Luo Yao's line, "Love is not a script," so she simply threw away all the lines and asked directly, "You clearly care about me, so why are you ignoring me?"
A look of surprise flashed across Yang Huanyi's face. After a long while, she replied somewhat awkwardly, "No, I didn't. It's just that you've been very busy lately, and I didn't want to bother you."
Shang Yechu frowned, instinctively feeling that Yang Huanyi wasn't telling the truth: "Then why didn't you 'bother' me when I wasn't busy the night before last?"
Yang Huanyi pursed her lips and tried to pull her hand away from Shang Yechu's, but she couldn't. So she let it go.
“We haven’t been together for a long time. We’ve become rusty in many ways,” Yang Huanyi said. “I want to wait until you’ve recovered a bit before we talk about it.”
Shang Yechu was utterly puzzled: "Aren't we together every day?"
Yang Huanyi paused. She didn't know how to explain to Shang Yechu that, for her, filming was just work and didn't count as "being together."
Shang Yechu views acting as a part of her life, so she probably finds it difficult to distinguish this subtle difference.
Yang Huanyi had no choice but to say, "You're right."
Shang Yechu felt a surge of anxiety and subconsciously felt that the conversation couldn't continue like this. After thinking it over, she finally came up with the mysterious idea of her recent busy schedule.
"You mean I've been busy with work lately and have been staying out a lot?" Shang Yechu pulled Yang Huanyi closer. "I have so much work that I stay up very late. I'm afraid it will affect your rest and delay the filming the next day."
Shang Yechu's original intention was to show off how understanding she was, but who would have thought that Yang Huanyi would raise her eyebrows and say after hearing this, "You yourself stayed up so late, aren't you afraid of delaying the filming?"
Shang Yechu couldn't very well say that she could have deep sleep, and that one session of sleep was better than six, so she could only casually say, "I'm young..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Shang Yechu knew she had stirred up a hornet's nest, and mentally slapped herself in the face.
Yang Huanyi's expression turned cold, and after a long pause, he said, "Do you think I'm too old?"
The problem of death!
Shang Yechu's mind raced, desperately trying to salvage the dire situation before him.
Although she's been busy promoting "Happy Street" lately, Shang Yechu is still very serious about her relationship. To win Yang Huanyi's heart, she not only researched a lot of information online and discussed physiological issues, but also sought advice from Ji Juntao and studied the psychology of lovers.
Yang Huanyi's question is a classic one.
"Do you think I'm XX?" The XX is usually an adjective, depending on what the person asking the question cares about most.
For example, if your partner asks you, "Do you think I'm too fat?", you should never answer, "How could that be? You're not fat at all in my eyes!"—such an answer implies that you actually prefer someone who is "not fat." You're just deliberately avoiding the question to avoid upsetting them.
The correct answer should be...
Shang Yechu said confidently, "How could that be? I like older women. So what if they're older? I find those greenhorns disgusting. The older you get, the more charming you become. When you're eighty, I might love you to death."
103 let out a cold laugh. He seemed disgusted.
Yang Huanyi was taken aback. After a long while, she reached out and tapped Shang Yechu's forehead with her finger: "You're so glib. Where did you learn that?"
It seems this hurdle has been overcome. Shang Yechu breathed a sigh of relief: "These are all my true feelings."
That's the truth. If Yang Huanyi and Shang Yechu were the same age, they would inevitably become competitors in the cutthroat entertainment industry, and Shang Yechu would be too busy being wary to keep up. But if Yang Huanyi were ten or eight years younger than Shang Yechu—you can't let your imagination run wild! You'd get shot.
As for "The Heavenly Ruler," Shang Yechu consciously ignored it. After all, didn't Yang Huanyi say it was already canceled?
Yang Huanyi then asked, "So you think I'm boring?"
"..."
Shang Yechu was stumped. She never dreamed that Yang Huanyi would ask such a question.
Whether it's fun to be with Yang Huanyi is never a question in Shang Yechu's eyes.
Before visiting Zhao Cheng's former residence, the days I spent with Yang Huanyi were filled with tension, awkwardness, and anxiety. We studied same-sex psychology day and night, and in our efforts to cultivate our relationship, we made countless laughable mistakes. Were those days boring? Of course not.
Boredom leaves little to remember; every time Shang Yechu thinks back to that time, she feels like banging her head against the ground. Clearly, it has nothing to do with being uninteresting.
After visiting the former residence, the two of them were no longer bored together.
"Why do you think that?" Shang Yechu asked, genuinely confused.
Yang Huanyi looked down at Shang Yechu and slowly reached out to tuck the blanket around Shang Yechu.
“I can’t give you passion, nor can I give you excitement. As for novelty, it seems you haven’t felt it either.” Yang Huanyi slowly stroked Shang Yechu’s hair. “It seems we’ve never done anything like that between lovers.”
What do lovers do?
This touched upon a blind spot in Shang Yechu's knowledge.
She'd never seen a normal couple. Ji Juntao handled his lovers like disposable tissues; Luo Yao and her partner did talk on the phone every day, but Yang Huanyi and Shang Yechu were face-to-face all the time, so talking on the phone seemed a bit crazy; she couldn't exactly be like Su Ge, checking in on Yang Huanyi's fan page every day…
Yang Huanyi was stumped by the question, and after a long pause, she slowly replied, "Kissing, holding hands, having candlelight dinners? Sending lots of messages every day, watching movies together in our free time, going to amusement parks, kissing at the top of a Ferris wheel, and things like that..."
By the end, Yang Huanyi himself was embarrassed. Being almost forty years old and discussing these things with young people seemed a bit disrespectful to his age.
The previous topic was clearly brushed aside; well done! Excellent actress Ye Chu is also a leader in the realm of romance!
Shang Yechu counted on her fingers: "We kiss and hold hands every day, and I'll write down the candlelight dinners for now. As for sending messages every day... we don't need that yet."
"Watching a movie, going to an amusement park, I've made a note of it," Shang Yechu typed in her phone's notes. "On the Ferris wheel..."
Shang Yechu paused when she wrote these words.
In clichéd idol dramas and shoujo manga, "kissing at the highest point of a Ferris wheel" means...
Lovers can stay together forever.
Does Yang Huanyi actually want to be with her forever?
