IPCFS: Chapter 123 Part 2

The next part belonged to Yuan Yifei and Ji Yunqi.

Yuan Yifei had been in the position of a top actor for a long time, but the decorations of his home were very simple and plain. To put it bluntly, the house was a bit cold, without any warmth or human touch.

“I have work all year round, and I’m used to living in hotels, so my home is relatively simple.”

Ji Li frowned slightly when he heard Yuan Yifei’s interview on the camera. “Yifei needs a loved one to accompany him.”

The work team could only be regarded as partners in business cooperation. However, Yuan Yifei’s current status meant that it was difficult for him to trust others easily.

Qin Yue asked, “Do you mean Qi Heng?”

“Isn’t Qi Heng too young? He and Yuan Yifei are six or seven years apart. He is a noble young master from a good family who is new to the entertainment circle and is gaining momentum. I think Yifei has been very concerned about him.”

Qin Yue didn’t speak.

To some extent, he agreed with Ji Li.

Yuan Yifei’s temperament was very calm, and he would take into account all aspects before making a decision. He wasn’t the easily impulsive type.

If he hadn’t confirmed their relationship status with the other person, then he wouldn’t easily start a relationship.

“He hasn’t seemed to have received any new scripts since the end of the variety show,” Ji Li sighed. “I think Yifei is like Lu Yao right now.”

He always had a smile on his face, but his heart must’ve been hurt after all these years.

As his friends, Ji Li and Ji Yunqi were willing to listen to him, but Yuan Yifei hid his issues and was unwilling to say them out loud. They couldn’t force him to expose his scars.

“Let’s get together when there is time,” Qin Yue replied softly. “It is always good to chat and drink with a few friends.”

Ji Li thought of the drinking capacity of his two friends and shook his head while complaining, “Let’s just chat. There isn’t the option of drinking with them.”

The two of them chatted briefly before watching ‘Poor Travel Notes’ again.

Compared with Yuan Yifei’s minimalist style, the Ji family’s mansion was a complete luxury..

It was just as the saying went. It was easy to be envied by others when rich, but once the amount of money reached a certain level, outsiders could only look up to them.

The entire screen was filled with the word ‘rich man.’ Looking at the clips filmed by the program team, Ji Li finally had a deep understanding of the male protagonist of the original novel who was ‘born with a golden spoon.’

It was just that no matter how rich the male protagonist was, he lost in terms of luck. After entering the official travel process, the four of them went to Austria together.

On the plane, they had the first choice of travel funds, and Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei selected the worst option: 0 yuan for the first day of travel.

Ji Li and Qin Yue’s luck rose up, and they selected the top option: the first day’s travel funds were all provided by the program team.

The extreme contrast between heaven and hell caused netizens to laugh.

Qin Yue and Ji Li enjoyed a big meal, while Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei could only eat instant noodles and watch with resentful eyes.

Qin Yue and Ji Li wore formal clothes to enjoy the opera, while Ji Yunqi and Yuan Yifei could only listen to street performers singing on the side of the street.

Qin Yue and Ji Li had a special car to pick them up and send them to their destination, while Yuan Yifei and Ji Yunqi had to rely on their own legs to travel around the city.

The program team respected the rules too much, so Ji Li’s help was ruthlessly rejected.

Ji Yunqi was so angry that he confronted the team of directors on the spot. Finally, he got a chance to determine his fate again, but he was ruined by his own luck.

Now Ji Yunqi wanted to cry, but he had no tears. Yuan Yifei just lay down and was resigned to his fate, and the netizens burst out laughing.

The fates of the two groups were completely different, forming a strong and stark contrast.

-Hahahaha I’m going to go crazy with laughter due to the Third Young Lady.

-It turns out that one group is really on a poor trip, while the other group is just traveling.

-I feel sorry for Yuan Bao, but I still want to laugh at the Third Young Lady hahahaha.

-The sweetness is eaten. Keep up this speed of making sugar and don’t stop!

The netizens’ barrage came one after another, and the ratings of the show also increased with every episode. The number of online views had exceeded 100 million so far.

In the three episodes in Austria, netizens and fans felt that they were constantly laughing, while the CP fans felt that the sugar content was high.

Major General recognizes Ji Li as his master, proving that the two of them already lived together? Sweet!

Brother Yue’s tea bags are filled with milk tea powders, and Ji Li likes to drink milk tea? Sweet!

The two people dressed in formal clothes to go to the opera, and Ji Li took the initiative to fix the box tie for Brother Yue? Sweet!

One of the coats worn by Ji Li only appeared in Brother Yue’s packing scene? Sweet!

The number of followers of the Chinese Rose super talk had been growing every day over the past three weeks. The official fan group that just opened a month ago was already full.

Su Qi, who was originally a diehard fan of Qin Yue, completely lay flat in the Chinese Rose CP pit! It was because the more she looked at it, the more she realized that Brother Yue absolutely had thoughts about Ji Li.

Her idol, who had been single for many years, wanted to chase someone? How could she, as a fan, stop it? In addition, the happiest thing in the world was to eat sugar. Wasn’t it good to have fun in life?

The only pity was that the preview for the new trip had come out. Ji Li missed the recording in the next travel destination due to work.

Su Qi sighed, calmed down, and opened the official group of Qin Yue’s global fans. Then she typed out a line of righteous words:

“For the variety show content that is airing this week, Brother Yue’s partner will be Feng Cheng of Yuexing. You are allowed to talk about the two people on the barrage as appropriate, but don’t comment on the CP. There is no need to cause issues with the opposite person’s fans or the CP fans. Let’s just watch the variety show happily!”

Su Qi was a big fan and she was responsible for the group’s management, so her notice quickly received unanimous agreement.

She closed the chat page of the group, quickly switched accounts, and entered the second official group of the Chinese Rose CP.

“Sisters! The variety show this week won’t have Ji Li, but don’t be sad. We can still find sugar in the cracks!”

“For example, compare Brother Yue’s attitude toward Feng Cheng, and we might be able to find extra sugar!”

“There is no sugar that can’t be dug up, only CP fans that don’t work hard! Charge! Act as microscopes!”

This group notification elicited an even stronger response.

Su Qi let out a long sigh of relief after sending the two group notices.

My god.

She had already mastered proper warfare!

***

The two people watched all three episodes of the show at twice the speed and finished at 9 o’clock in the evening.

Ji Li quickly took a hot shower and comfortably nestled in his quilt.

Sure enough, resting under a quilt in winter was the most comfortable.

Ji Li was still studying the script when Qin Yue came out of the shower. The left side of the big bed was obviously left for him.

Qin Yue leaned in and asked, “What time will your work start tomorrow?”

“The first scene is scheduled to start at 9 o’clock, but I have to get up at around 5.”

His makeup took some time to apply, so he needed to get up early to prepare.

Qin Yue put away the script that the other person had already memorized and coaxed him in a low voice, “Go to bed early. Tomorrow, I will accompany you to the crew.”

His flight was at 6 p.m. tomorrow, and it was fine for him to accompany Ji Li as long as he left for Shanghai at noon.

Ji Li rolled over, lay in this person’s arms, and rubbed against the tip of his nose. “…Qin Yue.”

Qin Yue hugged his lover and somehow remembered the words mentioned on the barrage: soft and sweet.

His breathing became disordered for a moment, but it was quickly controlled by Qin Yue. Ji Li saw his composure falter and was a bit surprised. “You don’t want it?”

Qin Yue reflexively pressed Ji Li against the bed and gently rubbed his soft lips. “If you make a fuss today, you won’t even be able to get out of bed tomorrow.”

Ji Li knew how many unspeakable words this understatement carried and immediately put away his lingering thoughts.

“Then I’ll set the alarm first.” He turned on the phone and slowly adjusted the alarm.

Qin Yue glanced at his phone and couldn’t help laughing. “Baby, what’s going on with you?”

It was clear that he had to wake up at 5 o’clock, but Ji Li’s alarm was set for 4 o’clock, and it was set to repeat every 15 minutes.

“It is too torturous to get up early in winter, so I have to set a few more alarms in order to not oversleep.” Ji Li had always done this. He woke up early and gave himself enough time to dawdle in bed.

Qin Yue grabbed his phone and turned off the extra alarms. “You can sleep. I will wake you up.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.”

Qin Yue turned off the bedside lamp and embraced his lover to sleep.

Ji Li originally thought that on the first day in the crew, he would lose sleep due to being in an unfamiliar hotel bed. He didn’t expect to suddenly have a familiar and stable embrace.

After a good night’s sleep.

Ji Li was woken up by Qin Yue’s gentle call. “Li Bao, it is almost time to wake up, okay?”

“…Yes.” Ji Li snorted in confusion and didn’t move his eyelids. He just leaned toward the familiar heat source.

The lights in the room turned on.

Qin Yue’s warm palm covered Ji Li’s eyes, preventing the other person from being stimulated by the sudden strong light.

After around half a minute, Ji Li got up from the bed with his head hanging down. His nasal cavity was thick after he just woke up.

“…What glamorous actor and star? I am just a working animal in the entertainment industry. Waking up early in winter is a crime.”

Ji Li was relatively self-disciplined. The only difficult thing for him was waking up early in winter, so he was purely whining when he woke up in a daze.

Qin Yue found his lover so cute that he pinched the face that was hot from sleeping. “Squint your eyes for a bit longer. I’ll carry you to the bathroom to wash up.”

“……”

Ji Li didn’t bother to refuse. He wrapped his hands and feet around Qin Yue’s body like a koala.

The two of them were originally lovers, and he could rely on his love as much as he wanted.

It wasn’t until Qin Yue closed the bathroom door that Ji Li’s sleepiness completely disappeared.

“Are you still sleepy?” Qin Yue weighed him before putting him on the sink and leaning closer. “Baby, do you feel that you have gotten lighter recently?”

Ji Li buried his face in this person’s neck, completely chasing away his sleepiness. “It is just three or four pounds. I need to restrain myself a bit for the role, or my face will appear swollen on the camera.”

Five minutes later, the two of them finished washing up together.

Qin Yue casually asked, “Which scene are you filming this morning?”

“I’m filming the 18th scene first.”

Qin Yue’s eyes froze. He didn’t even need to look through the script to remember the 18th scene. “The scene where Chen Yi meets the fifth life’s Yan Su and deliberately uses his body to play tricks?”

Ji Li thought of his detailed description of the scene and felt a bit guilty for some reason. He was ready to sneak back into the bedroom.

Qin Yue raised an eyebrow and quickly blocked his way. “The actor playing opposite you is called Xu Yanzhi?”
