Chapter 46: Face Value is Justice
Translator: Yuzu
The atmosphere between the two was just right, yet their fans were inexplicably at each others throats.
Ever since Seal the Sky started airing, Qing Yun has finally gained a wave of die-hard fans, though many of these fans have been brought over from the original fans of Seal the Sky. The composition of Qing Yuns fans is actually very complicated. Including the original Seal the Sky fans, there are also the face fans flocking from all corners. There is even a part of the fans from Ning Qianyuans side.
After Qing Yuns fan base grew, fans began to give their group a name. Because some of Qing Yuns videos and current works are full of a sense of royalty, his fans often dubbed him as Qing Wang, so it was suggested that the fan base be called Wang Fei. 1
The proposal poked at Ning Qianyuans fans, whose nickname was Ai Fei. 2
Although Ning Qianyuans fans fighting force is not generally strong, and though they have been quiet for five years, it is these five years that they have accumulated an unknown amount of energy. Once they were provoked, they all blasted over towards Qing Yun and his fans.
Although Qing Yuns fans are weak, they are not willing to back down. They feel that they have already given enough respect to the senior movie emperor Ning Qianyuan, whose nickname among his fans is Emperor, while Qing Yun is just Qing Wang, so how did they provoke them?
The two fandoms were tearing each other apart. Even passersby were aware of the storm of disagreement between the two.
It is reasonable to say that Qing Yuns small fan base wont last much longer, but suddenly, a few rich and powerful tycoons have sprung up in Qing Yuns fans.
If Qing Yun paid attention to this matter, he would have discovered that the man under his Weibo account was one of the men who threatened him that night Zhou Ye.
Zhou Ye V: Bullsh-t, my Qing Yun still needs to rub off the heat of your outdated movie star?
Zhou Ye V: Hehe, is it still hot? Im afraid its a bit cold!
Zhou Ye V: Qing Xiaoyun Qing Wang is the best! [Flower delivery] [Flower delivery]
Zhou Ye has several fans online because of his rich second generation persona. His attention to Qing Yun immediately aroused the curiosity of Qing Yuns fans.
This person does not know if he has some masochistic tendencies, but after being beaten by Qing Yun that night, he has somehow worshipped Qing Yun. Of course, this worship is accompanied by fear. After all, Qing Yun gave spiritual implications to the people that night.
He gradually began to pay attention to Qing Yun and later became the most avid fan of Qing Yun. He directly started many comments under Qing Yuns Weibo and even sold meng, begging for more.
Because Zhou Ye is also the boss of an entertainment company, his behavior immediately aroused the interest of Qing Yuns fans, who flocked to his Weibo to tease him.
President Zhou, do you have a crush on our Qing Yun, hahaha!
I, Qing Wang, am truly worthy, with fans across all levels.
Of course, some people maliciously speculated whether there was some improper relationship between Zhou Ye and Qing Yun.
Such comments, at once, scared the hell out of Zhou Ye. That night, the scene of kneeling on the ground and calling Dad was still vivid in his mind. Zhou Ye did not dare to indulge in such comments and immediately sent a lawyers letter to each of them. He seriously stated that he was just a fan of Qing Yun.
The key point is that Zhou Yes behavior influenced the other four men, who were also beaten up. These men were not as bold as Zhou Ye, but they were afraid that they would fall out of favor with him, so they ran to Qing Yuns Weibo page, clicked like, and ran away.
Their attitude was like: I like you very much, but Im too shy to talk
Qing Yuns fans picked them up after this behavior. At the same time, their cute hearts trembled, and they also felt that their idol is really remarkable. He even attracted five bosses, five ah!
Emmmm, no one is questioning my Qing Wangs name at last, right? Even these domineering presidents kneel under my Qing Wangs pants.
Suddenly, I feel that the name Qing Wang is not powerful enough. Why dont we pick another one?
Just call him the CEO Harvester!
The name CEO Harvester followed Qing Yun like this.
Perhaps its because of this name, but soon after, a small account called Im the CEO also followed Qing Yun.
It was even more local than Zhou Ye in the fanbase, but because it was only an uncertified account and the intensity of its dislike towards Ning Qianyuans fans wasnt as strong as Zhou Yes, all it said was, How do you know your idol doesnt like Qing Yun? and How do you know your idol doesnt want to give him his spot? Therefore, it didnt attract much attention from Qing Yun fans.
A certain movie star who still has idol baggage on his sleeve is depressed.
Qing Yun was stunned when he found out about the storm. He thought that those men would hide away when they were afraid, but he didnt expect that Zhou Ye would be so good at it.
Looking through the comments under his own microblog, Qing Yun hooked his lips with interest and rewarded Zhou Yes Weibo account with a follow.
This move made Zhou Ye jump around more happily and caused Ning Qianyuan to feel sour in his heart. He is the boss of Qing Yun, a famous film emperor, and as a resulthe(QY) has not even paid attention to him.
Seeing the lost look of the man beside him, Qing Yun maliciously hooked the corner of his mouth.
During the filming of Druid 2, Qing Yun has been studying acting with Ning Qianyuan. It must be said that although Ning Qianyuan often carries private goods and is barely a good teacher, Qing Yuns acting skills have improved rapidly during this period. Even Hilde was surprised.
"
"
The filming of Druid 2 has been completed. After the banquet, Qing Yun went back with Ning Qianyuan. Although the film has been finished, the teaching between the two is still not done. The script has only been acted halfway.
This scene is about the cheating lover coming back for the first time, so you have to do everything you can to keep him, understand? As Ning Qianyuan tells Qing Yun about the play, he recalls the second half of the act and gets slightly excited.
Qing Yun sat across from him and stared at him coldly, feeling an unprecedented surge of annoyance.
This man was too shameless, but he still acted like a serious person. These days of acting up to this point, Qing Yun has almost grasped the characters essence. This character is too single-minded, so he pours his heart into his lover. When he learns that his lover has cheated on him, his first reaction is not revenge but how to get the person back.
This is a man who loves so much that he has no dignity.
But how could Qing Yun, someone with high self-esteem, not be annoyed that he has to perform this kind of grievance?
No, I dont like this scene. Change the script. He said as he raised his chin arrogantly towards Ning Qianyuan. His expression was wilful, clearly not immersed in the play at all.
In fact, the similarity between this role and the one youre going to take on in a few days is in this scene. The previous ones are all just preparation, so if you give up, all your previous efforts will be in vain. Ning Qianyuan earnestly persuaded Qing Yun.
Hearing that, Qing Yun had a rare hesitation. He could subtly sense what Ning Qianyuan was talking about, so he knew that Ning Qianyuan wasnt lying to him.
But that was it. Qing Yun felt even angrier in his heart.
What does that mean? It shows that Ning Qianyuan planned it from the beginning when he chose the script, preferring to put this mind-bending twist into this drama.
Qing Yun gave him a cold look but still agreed.
Alright then, lets start now.
Ning Qianyuan stood up and faced the door of the room, making a pose to leave, I just came to get something.
His voice was indifferent, but listening carefully, he seemed to be suppressing a bit of affection.
It was this bit of affection that entangled the already hopeful man.
Dontdont go! In an instant, Qing Yun buried himself in his back and wrapped his arms tightly around his waist. The trembling words with a plea were seductive as they were read by Qing Yuns unusually beautiful voice.
Ning Qianyuans throat tightened, barely able to restrain his impulses. Though the role he was currently playing really didnt require restraint.
He turned slightly and reached out to gently embrace Qing Yun.
In fact, all Qing Yun had to do in this scene was to use all his strength to seduce the man in front of him. He was so angry that he cursed in his heart, but he had to act so humble that he had to beg on the surface.
In the end, Qing Yun managed to pull the man down onto the couch, and the heat in the house climbed up instantly.
Although it was an act, and although the lines were spoken from a script, the kiss was real, and so was the touch.
It was only when Qing Yuns sharp eyes caught a glimpse of a torn package of Dur-x tossed to the side that he finally couldnt endure the drama. He fiercely gripped the mans hair: Acting? Do you have to take that with you when you act?
No more acting! No more acting, babyI cant help it
The mans heavy breathing sounded in Qing Yuns ears.
F-ck offMmm!
The two ended up not acting out this scene, but their play kept going, from the living room to the bedroom to the bathroom.
The next morning, Ning Qianyuan opened his eyes to the sunshine. He subconsciously took hold of the person next to him. However, a stretch of the hand touched the empty space.
Ning Qianyuan, with messy hair, sat up with a start. He looked around but couldnt see Qing Yun, and panic gradually spread to the entire heart.
Is he mad at me for not controlling myself last night? Didnt he want me?
The fear in his heart made Ning Qianyuans hands and feet cold. He got up and was about to make a phone call to Qing Yun. Then, he saw a note on the pillow beside him, with three words written in a clear and elegant font on the paper: short and quick.
Ning Qianyuans face immediately turned green. Last night, he obviously tried very hardand thats not what Qing Yun said at the time. But now hes running away after sleeping again? Ning Qianyuan almost wanted to grab his head against the ground. Still, the three belittling words also made him strangely calm.
Fortunately, he was prepared in advance.
On the other side, Qing Yun was about to get off the plane and couldnt resist a light yawn.
He Lan reminded him with a cold face, Pull up your collar a little higher and cover up. There will be fans to receive you later.
She wondered in her mind who the person beside Qing Yun was these two times. Looking at the marks on the body, there is no guarantee that it is even a person. There are tooth marks and hickeys, and the bruises are really frightening. He Lan was distressed to see this.
Qing Yun was not willing to say, so it must be a person with a deep background. Otherwise, how can Qing Yun, with his pride, bear this without saying anything?
The point is that He Lan has been following Qing Yun for the past two days and hasnt seen anyone suspicious ah! Besides, with President Ning watching, there shouldnt be anyone who dares to touch Sheng Shis star like this. He Lan cant help but look worse the more he thinks about it.
Qing Yun did get a little tired. His legs even drifted a little when he got off the plane. Ning Qianyuan in bed is really too wild. The stupidity during the day became straightforward at night, making Qing Yun not even have the strength to refuse.
In fact, he had originally scheduled his return to China a little later than now. It was Qing Yuns quick decision to return today to get rid of that stupid Ning Qianyuan.
He had just taken a few steps when he heard someone call his name, screaming in a voice that was exceptionally piercing but contained a lot of excitement. Qing Yun subconsciously looked towards where the sound came from and saw many fans holding signs to receive him.
This was the first time Qing Yun had been so outrightly liked by so many people, and couldnt help but pull a slight smile towards that side.
Ahhhh! So beautiful in real life!
Oh God, smile at me, smile at me, Im going to faint!
It really is a feast for the eyes!
It was only after Qing Yun had left for quite a while that the commotion slowly subsided. His fans shared todays photos with the group of people who were unable to receive the plane. There was strength in numbers, and some found something wrong after a look
Fuck, why is there a hickey on the side of Qing Yuns ear!
What is it? There really is!
"
"
Fans took a closer look, and indeed, in one photo, a small red mark was found at the base of Qing Yuns ear, which was mostly covered by the collar.
Dont be nervous, it could be a mosquito bite. Qing Yun went to shoot Druid 2 in the tropical jungle a lot. It is possible to be bitten.
Hmmm, and it could also be an allergy or something like that. Calm down, calm down.
Fans were making easy and acceptable excuses for themselves.
A particular movie star who was peeping at the screen couldnt help but ask secretly, If Qing Yun was really with someone, would you be able to accept it?
The group immediately exploded because of that one sentence.
Of course not!
My Qing Wang is so beautiful. How can he be taken advantage of by those demonic sl-ts out there?
Absolutely unacceptable. Qing Yun is either mine or everyones.
Because this group of fans were attracted by Qing Yuns face in the first place, everyone wanted to keep beautiful things for themselves, so they couldnt stand anyone other than themselves to get their hands on it.
Ning Qianyuan could only knock his head in frustration as he looked at the opposing comments that kept popping up in the group. It seemed that even if he got together with Qing Yun, he wouldnt be able to make it public. Hes not afraid of anything. After all, what happens in the showbiz world basically doesnt affect him much, but Qing Yun is still just starting and cant afford too much trouble.
He Lan sent Qing Yun to the hotel next to the set. She had also finally made up her mind and asked Qing Yun seriously, Tell me the truth, is this time the same as the last one?
Hmm. Qing Yun nodded and looked at her, clearly confused as to why she was suddenly asking.
Sure enough! He Lans gaze was stern, then spoke in a bit of a bad tone, Ive been staring at you for so long, so I know you must not be in a relationship. Is this man from the last time you met Director Li at an event?
Qing Yun found a more comfortable position to lean on the bed and put a pillow under his waist. He opened the script and returned He Lans words carelessly: It was that time we met.
He Lan was even angrier with this series of actions, This man knew you had a plane to catch today and tormented you so much last night, obviously not a good person! Dont be afraid, tell me exactly which one it is. Now, youre doing well, and with a little effort, youll be on the top tier, and the company will definitely protect you.
If it really doesnt work, let the president do it. Didnt those five guys stop last time?
He Lan said this to Qing Yun because, in her heart, Qing Yun is still soft and cute. This appearance was obviously being bullied by someone. Although she is an ordinary agent and has little ability, it is still possible to discuss with the company.
Just tell me what his name is.
Oh. Qing Yun looked up at the exceptionally serious He Lan, his dark eyes flashed with a hint of mischief, His name is Ning Qianyuan.
Okay, Ning Qianyuan, right, I remember. After saying that, He Lan rushed to go out, obviously going to call the company. As soon as she took her phone out, she suddenly froze and stared at Qing Yun, You, you, you said the name is Ning, what?
Ning Qianyuan.
He Lan was frozen, and only after a while did she take a sharp breath back to her senses. She looked at Qing Yun sympathetically, Thisis not that sister doesnt want to help you, ahem, you can forget what I just said er.
He Lan awkwardly walked out. She really didnt expect this person to be Ning Qianyuan. Blame it on the fact that Ning Qianyuan was too serious in front of outsiders. He Lan didnt even think that it was the cold boss of their company who left traces on Qing Yuns body in such a fierce manner.
Ning Qianyuan has been close to Qing Yun these days. His attitude has changed from his previous fierce attitude in China to a much more gentle one. He even has a feeling of obedience to Qing Yun.
The two of them even rolled into bed, which is more like falling in love than having an illicit relationship, okay?
Before Qing Yun returned to China, the news of his participation in Druid 2 had been officially released, which made Qing Yuns fans straighten their backs despite their disbelief. This directly manifested in the dislike of Ning Qianyuans fans even more.
However, some of the fans of Ning Qianyuan have figured out why their Emperors first Weibo action in so many years was to give a like to Qing Yun and then canceled it. The movie that he is going to act in is also related to Qing Yun.
This is either because Qing Yun is a mascot, or there is something fishy going on!
This set of high profile cp, I want to eat.
As a result, while the twos fandom happily pinches each other, a handful of cp fans survive in the cracks and grow slowly.
Qing Yuns popularity continued to climb, with some hints of surpassing Bai Xiyan, especially after the news of his participation in Druid 2 was released. This put Bai Xiyan under extreme pressure, as he knew that by the time Druid 2 aired, Qing Yun would become even more popular.
Speaking of Qing Yuns popularity, it should have nothing to do with Bai Xiyan because hes been moving along at a steady pace since his rebirth. However, it was because Bai Xiyan used Qing Yuns situation to indicate how good or bad his life had been since he was reborn, which made him feel exceptionally tired.
Bai Xiyan, who has been self-abusing himself by snooping around every day for news about Qing Yun, even thought of getting plastic surgery. If he looked as good as Qing Yun, would he be able to get offers for big productions with ease? To gain Ning Qianyuans favor?
But Bai Xiyan couldnt go this way because he started out as a hardworking and patient actor. His fans were proud of him and felt that Bai Xiyan was more than a class above those actors who rely on their faces.
If Bai Xiyan suddenly got plastic surgery, what would his fans think of him? Will all the popularity hes built up since his rebirth be wasted?
When Bai Xiyan returned home today, Deng Yunqi was still at work, and the place was unusually quiet.
Yes, he and Deng Yunqi had moved in together. It was Bai Xiyans request as the changes in people and things around Qing Yun made him extremely panicked. The only one who could give him comfort was Deng Yunqi.
Bai Xiyan tiredly lay down on the bed but suddenly felt something underneath him. He got up and looked. There was a picture frame under the pillow, and half of it was exposed. It was exactly what he had just laid on top of.
Bai Xiyan frowned and picked it up to put it aside, but when he saw the contents of the picture frame, Bai Xiyan was suddenly stunned.
The picture was not just a photo at all, but a corner cut out of some magazine. The beautiful side profile of the youth on it was extremely eye-catching.
