The filming of a short scene took a whole day. When Qi Le An got back to the house, he was exhausted mentally and physically.

He lay on the bed and recalled the look in Wei Chang Feng’s eyes when he acted as Zhen Dong. There was indecision towards love, fear, and anger.

The moment Zhen Dong let go of the elevator door, he gave up on Xiao Lan.

It was just a game. Why should he care about that?

At that moment, Qi Le An seemed to understand how Zhen Dong felt.

Wei Chang Feng sat down beside him and rubbed Qi Le An’s head, saying, “Are you still thinking of it?”

Qi Le An sat up and sighed in depression.

Wei Chang Feng kissed Qi Le An and said in amusement, “Come on, don’t think about it…Shall we go downstairs and pack up?”

According to the progress, the shooting will be moved in a week to the house where they were staying. At that time, Zhen Dong would find Xiao Lan again and the two of them would start to live together.

Before shooting, the two of them had to tidy up the first ground.

Qi Le An nodded and said, “Will I take a day off tomorrow?” Tomorrow was Wei Chang Feng’s one-man show, and Qi Le An was not needed.

Wei Chang Feng said gently, “You can have a lie-in.”

Qi Le An got out of bed and stretched lazily, saying, “I’ll do the clean-up here tomorrow.”

Wei Chang Feng said, “I will take a day off the day after tomorrow. Leave it to me.”

Qi Le An said, “Wei Sama, you have more scenes than me. Don’t argue with me. Is it nice to touch Chang Bo’s pectorals?”

Wei Chang Feng pulled a wry face at Qi Le An’s sudden change of topic. He didn’t expect Qi Le An to be vindictive. He quickly went over and held Qi Le An’s waist, pinched his bottom, and said, “It’s much nicer to touch you.”

Qi Le An snorted coldly.

Director Guan insisted on directing all the scenes on himself instead of breaking them into groups. As a result, he spent one day filming Wei Chang Feng’s part and the next day on Qi Le An’s part. It took them several days to finish filming their parts separately.

At Lantern Festival when Qi Le An started school, Zhen Dong and Xiao Lan in the movie had not made up and lived together.

Qi Le An was worried, “Can we finish shooting by mid-April? I feel that half the time passed, and we haven’t finished even half of the story… ”

Chen Shan had the same worry. After the baby girl was born, Mr. Chen wanted Chen Shan to get more involved with his own company. He took Chen Shan to the company to help him before Spring Festival and brought Chen Shan to visit his old friends. After Lantern Festival, Chen Shan was able to escape and went to City B with the new textbooks and exercise books from Qi Le An’s school.

Qi Le An was happy to see Chen Shan, but when he saw the books, he pulled a long face.

Chen Shan snorted, “Are you disgruntled? Teacher Luo even asked me for your winter vacation assignment.”

Qi Le An thought he had finally got an excuse not to do his winter vacation assignment, and he looked around nervously. When he saw that Wei Chang Feng was not there, he said, “Chen Ge, you are my brother.”

Chen Shan insisted, “I’m your godbrother.”

Qi Le An was embarrassed. “Okay, godbrother. Why does it sound so weird?”

Chen Shan was amused, giving Qi Le An two red envelopes. “From Mom and Dad.”

Qi Le An also prepared a cute red envelope for the baby girl. He reminded Chen Shan, “You have to give her this.”

Chen Shan assured Qi Le An, who extended his hand. “Brother, where’s mine?”

Chen Shan paused as he stuffed the red envelope into his pocket, saying, “Don’t you know that we don’t give red envelopes to peers? We are of the same generation, so I don’t have to give you that.”

Qi Le An watched helplessly as Chen Shan, who claimed that there was no need to give red envelopes to peers, thrust the cute envelope for the baby girl into his pocket.

“How is Guan Kai? Do you feel the pressure?” Chen Shan asked again.

There was no one around. Only Chen Shan and Qi Le An were in the room. Qi Le An sighed and said, “Director Guan is nice…pressure… I do feel some pressure.”

After all, he acted with Wei Chang Feng a lot, who had excellent acting skills. Even though they were lovers, Qi Le An felt the pressure from his predecessor.

Fortunately, Xiao Lan was connected to a certain part of him, which eased some of his pressure.

Qi Le An had never talked about this with Wei Chang Feng, but he did not hesitate to tell Chen Shan. “But I feel that I’ve improved a lot. There will be a scene between me and Wei Sama tomorrow. Chen Ge, come to watch us.”

Chen Shan nodded and said, “I can stay here for half a month… I’ll go back before the shareholders' meeting.”

The shareholders meeting of Guan Yao was to be held at the end of March, and Chen Shan had to go back before the meeting. Speaking of this, Qi Le An mentioned the incident last month.

Chen Shan sneered and said, “In the past two years, Guang Yao’s stock price has been declining, and Jiang Shan is anxious. Don’t worry. As long as the Chen family has the shares in our hands, no one dares to touch you.”

It dawned on Qi Le An, who only realized now why Madam Chen insisted him to be her godson. He felt grateful, saying, “Okay…”

Chen Shan’s expression softened a little and he took out his phone. “Come on. Let’s relax. I’ll show you a video of the chubby girl.”

When Wei Chang Feng came back from the filming, he saw Chen Shan and Qi Le An laughing together. Qi Le An laughed and said, “So cute! When will she speak?”

“It’s still very early. She only knows how to turn over. Chen Shan said, “It takes at least half a year to talk.”

Wei Chang Feng took off his coat, and Qi Le An saw him, saying, “Wei Sama! Chen Ge is here!”

Wei Chang Feng greeted Chen Shan with a smile, but Chen Shan had an awkward look on his face.

“I’ve cleaned up the room,” Qi Le An said proudly.

Wei Chang Feng came over and exchanged kisses with Qi Le An, “What do you want to eat? I’ll make it.”

Chen Shan was choked by their deep affection.

They were in the house booked by the crew, and the kitchen utensils were just decorations. Apart from milk and drinks, there was no food in the fridge. To welcome Chen Shan, Wei Chang Feng called Gary, and the four of them went out for a dinner.

During these days in the crew, Gary saw something between Wei Chang Feng and Qi Le An. However, he was an excellent assistant, and he didn’t ask Wei Chang Feng anything. Instead, he called on New Year to guide public opinion.

The restaurant that Gary chose happened to be below Wei Chang Feng’s bakery. The four of them had a simple meal, and Wei Chang Feng went up to get a cake for Qi Le An. After that, they went to the crew in the suburbs of Beijing.

The next day, to respect the authenticity of the original novel, the location was set at an abandoned old building on Qing University campus.

As the student representative, Xiao Lan had gone through some campaign, and his white shirt was stained with blood. He went back to the dormitory in dejection and saw Zhen Dong’s car.

Zhen Dong was worried about Xiao Lan, so he drove to the dorm building late at night. When he was dozing at the steering wheel, he was woken up by a trembling finger.

As the story took place at night, the prop team went to set up the scene during the day. As they kept strict confidentiality, the students didn’t know that Wei Chang Feng and Qi Le An would become to shoot the movie, so they left after watching for a while.

After it got dark, they first shot the scene of Wei Chang Feng driving away from the students. It was Qi Le An’s turn after midnight.

This was an indescribable scene. From midnight, countless people died in front of Xiao Lan, who was covered in blood and struggled to come back.

It had been a few months since he last saw Zhen Dong. Xiao Lan had never imagined that this man would appear in front of him again at the moment when he was most scared in his life.

Zhen Dong appeared like a god.

The night in early March was a little chilly. Director Guan explained the scene to Qi Le An, while the light director adjusted the lights on the side. It was so quiet that the sound of mosquitoes was not even heard. Director Guan asked, “Understand?”

Qi Le An nodded and said, “Yes.”

The director stood in front of the monitor and nodded to the assistant director.

Qi Le An took off his coat and gave it to Chen Shan, massaging his hands and preparing himself. The light director shouted from afar, “It’s ready here!”

Director Guan nodded, and the assistant director shouted, “Everyone, get ready!”

The script Supervisor set the board in front of the camera, and Qi Le An immediately started to act.

Xiao Lan stood beside the familiar car with vacant eyes, his whole body trembling uncontrollably. He extended a finger and poked the man on the steering wheel.

Zhen Dong suddenly woke up and turned to look at Xiao Lan outside the window.

The two of them didn’t even have to say anything. Everything was said in their eyes. Zhen Dong abruptly opened the door and got out of the car.

Xiao Lan was trembling as if he had collapsed. His eyes were filled with fear and grief.

Zhen Dong went forward and hugged Xiao Lan, pressing his head to his neck.

“It’s okay… It’s okay…” Zhen Dong whispered.

Xiao Lan burst out crying. His voice turned from low to high, and in the end, he wailed loudly.

They hugged each other under the streetlight. Xiao Lan held the living man tightly.

Qi Le An was crying hard. He felt anxious as he didn’t hear Director Guan say ‘cut’.

It was useless to be anxious, as he had to try his best to pretend to cry.

Just as he could not feign any more tears, he finally heard Guan Kai’s voice.

“Cut!”

Qi Le An rubbed against Wei Chang Feng and looked up at Guan Kai.

Director Guan looked nervously at the replay in the monitor and looked up. “You cried too much. Let’s do it again.”

Qi Le An was embarrassed.

Wei Chang Feng’s muffled laughter was heard. Qi Le An couldn’t help asking, “Did I cry too much?”

Wei Chang Feng tilted his head and thought for a while. “Xiao Lan should not cry so loudly at this time.”

It dawned on Qi Le An. Xiao Lan had just escaped death. He shouldn’t cry so loud.

Looking at the staff in the dark and chilly night, Qi Le An couldn’t help but sigh.

‘This time, I will not let them down!’

Wei Chang Feng touched his head and said, “Everything else is fine. Take it easy.”

Chen Shan watched them in disbelief from the distance, asking Gary next to him, “Do they usually behave like this in the crew?”

Gary didn’t want to answer this question. “…Most of the time it is fine.”

Chen Shan felt desperate.

Gary joked, “It’s fine. Anyway, there are many gays in the crew including the director, scriptwriter, and art director. Don’t worry.”

Chen Shan was lost for words.
