Chapter 755 - RW 1.50
Yunyu woke up groggily in the morning. He spent the whole night crying rather than reading his lines. He just couldn't focus on anything while he was thinking about how unfair and cruel Han Ye Gege was to him.
Yunyu sighed as he drank his morning tea. He started reading the script for the series. Fortunately, he had a great memory, so he would remember things quickly, and he would also remember anything in his life.
"I guess that's why I can be so petty, hehe," Yunyu chuckled as he continued reading.
As he was reading, he got a text from four men at once.
—
Huang Jinren: Good morning, my Empress. I'm going to do another scene today. Do you have a plan for dinner?
Mu Ronghui: Good morning, Yunyu. Can I take you for a date today?
Zhu Junze: Yun'er, do you want me to pick you up?
Long Shen: Dear, don't forget about the schedule today.
—
"Ah, it's really a dream to have so many men lining up for me, hehe," Yunyu giggled happily. But his giggle didn't last long, and he looked sad so suddenly. "Too bad there is no Han Ye Gege there. He doesn't really see me as a human after all."
Yunyu shook his head quickly as he realized that he was about to fall into the same depression over his fansite.
"Stop being sad, Yunyu. Han Ye Gege will not care for you, so you should fend for yourself and support him in any way possible!" Yunyu encouraged himself as he continued reading.
Zhu Junze came to his house to pick him up, and they were on their way to the movie studio.
"You look tired, Yun'er. Is there something wrong?" Junze asked.
"Not really, I just spent my whole night trying to remember the lines, that's why," Yunyu replied. "Makeup will cover my tiredness, don't worry, hehe~."
"I see. I hope it's not because of what happened yesterday," Junze mentioned. He was worried that Yunyu might really take Han Ye's ruthless insult at heart.
"Nah, I'm used to it. He is always like that," Yunyu replied lightly as he continued reading the script.
Zhu Junze tightened his grip on the steering wheel. The fact that Yunyu said it was very common for Han Ye to insult him meant that Yunyu had been enduring the abuse for so long.
"If you don't want me to protect you from that bastard, then you should at least stand up for yourself, Yun'er. He has been treating you like trash, and I can't accept that."
"…"
Yunyu said nothing and lowered his head. He knew that Han Ye Gege was wrong, and he was a total scum.
But at the same time, his heart would be in pain if he saw Han Ye Gege getting yelled at or challenged by other people.
Maybe all this stemmed from something past, but Yunyu just couldn't let Han Ye Gege in pain. He couldn't bear seeing his beloved to be hurting.
Zhu Junze sighed in frustration. Yunyu was really stupidly in love with that bastard. He couldn't even think clearly.
They arrived at the movie studio, and Zhu Junze warned him, "Yun'er, if that bastard harassed you again, just call me, and I will clean him up. I can't wait to beat his pretentious face."
…
Yunyu said nothing and went inside the movie studio. He had to get used to this, ignoring the people who hated Han Ye Gege and blindly supporting him.
[I know I am an idiot in this. I should've just left him alone.]
[But my heart said no, I cannot leave him…]
Yunyu entered the Director room and saw Long Shen and Lee Kibum discussing the role, "Ah, Yunyu, you've arrived. Come, sit here," Long Shen said while tapping the seat beside him.
Now they were sitting as three, and Long Shen briefed, "We're going to meet the cast and crew today, and then we will start the first recording for the characters. You don't need to worry. Most of them are also new to acting."
"Yes, Mr. Long," Lee Kibum said.
"Sure thing, Mr. Long~."
**
Kibum and Yunyu met the rest of the cast and crew, most of them were still young, probably in their early to mid-20s, and they looked friendly.
"My name is Lee Kibum. I will play as Kim Tae-Oh."
"And my name is Bai Yunyu. I'll play as Bo Yun! Nice to meet you guys!"
"Whoa, Kim Tae-Oh casting is seriously spot on!" One crew commented, and the others parroted the same thing.
Then, they looked at Bai Yunyu and commented the same, "Ah, Bo Yun also has that fresh and bright youth in him. Mr. Long really found two perfect casts for the main characters!"
"Thank you, thank you, hehe," Yunyu was delighted that people didn't hate him here.
He was a bit afraid there would be Bi He or Han Ye Gege 2.0 here that would bully the heck out of him again. But everyone seemed to be friendly in here.
That was… until one cast suddenly called him out, "Bai Yunyu? Didn't you get the role as Bai Shijue in that new series with Mr. Han Ye?"
Everyone's eyes darted at Yunyu the moment that sentence was delivered. Yunyu looked at the man who said it, and he remembered him from the audition as Bai Shijue before.
Yunyu gulped and smiled awkwardly, "W—Well, I resigned from the role because I don't see myself fitting for that one. I think I fit better in a romcom, and I want my first acting role to be the main character in a Boys Love drama, because I love BL, hehe."
"Eh, but you told me before the role as Bai Shijue is your dream, and you look so happy when you got the role…" that guy continuously barraging Yunyu with facts, and Yunyu got nervous.
"Did the Director kick you out? Or is it someone from the main cast that doesn't like you?" The guy continued to make a wild guesses, and it was spot on.
Long Shen sensed something was wrong with Yunyu's nervousness. He was also curious whether Yunyu really got kicked out by someone from his previous role.
But he didn't want Yunyu to be embarrassed in front of everyone, so he'd just ask this later.
So he interrupted, "Okay, time's up. No more chit-chatting.. Let's start the first recording."
