BE Crazy Demon Survival System [Quick Transmigration]Ch14 - The Peak of Competition Between Beauty and Acting Skills (14)

As expected, Xu Qichen woke up with  under eye circles dark enough to have an oppressive sense of existence. Aside from that, he had also earned a reward of 500 extra points.

Director Chen thought, this child must have been in a bad mood because of the storm online last night. He patted Xu Qichen’s shoulder with some sympathy. “Don’t care about what they say, just act seriously, got it?” 3f5iJA

Xu Qichen nodded slowly.

He had barely slept last night, his brain in a mess. He didn’t object to filming kiss scenes with a man, after all he himself liked men, it’s just that he always felt anxious around Lin Ran.

Zhang Xiaoxiao handed him a cup of Iced Americano. “Mengze-ge, this should give you energy.”

Xu Qichen drank a large mouthful of the coffee. It was so bitter he could not help furrowing his brows, but he still forcibly drank the entire cup. It wouldn’t be good to delay the crew’s progress because he’s sleepy. OTC4tp

“Xiaoxiao, can you call the stylist for me and ask if she can help cover my dark circles?”

After a while, Zhang Xiaoxiao came back with the stylist who took a look at Xu Qichen and said, “It’s not that bad ah, I’ll just lightly cover your dark circles.”

Xu Qichen nodded and obediently sat on the chair for the stylist to do her cover-up work. Adhering to Director Chen’s principle of appearing without makeup, she didn’t do anything extra.

With a small battery-operated fan in hand, Lin Ran sauntered towards Xu Qichen. Seeing him sitting obediently with his eyes shut, he quietly walked towards Ji Mengze’s trailer. Zhang Xiaoxiao was inside.

“Lin Ran-ge? Do- do you need help?”

Lin Ran smiled at her. “Ji Mengze asked me to get him an ice cream, he said the coffee was too bitter.”

“Oh, oh, I’ll get one for you.”

Lin Ran stopped her. “I can do it, don’t worry.” He got into the trailer, found the cooler box, and squatted to open it. As expected, it was filled with ice cream of different flavors from various brands. YJpefU

“Which one does he like?”

“The chocolate hazelnut one right on top, there’s only one left. Yesterday Mengze-ge asked me to get more, but all the shops I went to didn’t have it.”

Lin Ran took the ice cream tub and left, leaving behind a Zhang Xiaoxiao who was still in a daze.

“Done, take a look.” The stylist gave Xu Qichen a handheld mirror, “It’s not obvious anymore ba.” 2zsbV8

Xu Qichen nodded and replied with a smile, “En, thanks jie.”

He stood up and watched the stylist leave. The moment he turned around, he saw Lin Ran standing behind him, holding an ice cream tub, and eating.

It’s a little awkward. Xu Qichen forced a smile and said: “Eating ice cream so early in the morning ah, if you’re not careful you’ll get a stomach ache.”

Lin Ran was overjoyed, but he kept a straight face and nodded. “This one is really difficult to get, do you want to try?” ASBo5V

Xu Qichen refused without even thinking, but the next instant he realised that the ice cream container looked very familiar. He stole a few glances at it, making the other party unable to hold back. Lin Ran’s eyes curved in a smile.

That didn’t make Xu Qichen bold, but he still asked, “That, uh, are you eating my ice cream?”

“Did Lin Ran come here earlier?”

“Yes… He said you wanted ice cream and asked him to get you one…”

After hearing this, Xu Qichen turned back angrily, wanting to scold him, but he had never scolded anyone before and was completely unfamiliar with this kind of operation, so his momentum subconsciously weakened when he spoke. bAHxOF

“You! Why did you steal my ice cream…”

There was a villain rolling on the floor laughing in Lin Ran’s heart. Still he kept a straight face and continued to eat slowly.

“I wanted to eat ah, didn’t you offer ice cream to all the members of the crew?” Lin Ran held the small spoon in his mouth. “You’re so angry even though I only ate one, do you hate me that much?”

Xu Qichen had nothing to say. Half a day later, he managed, “But that’s the one I like the most, and it’s the last one.” jpskCH

Lin Ran raised his eyebrow. “I only want to eat. Your. Favourite. One.”

Childish, Xu Qichen thought.

0901: “Mr. Xu, you aren’t acting very mature either ah.”

Xu Qichen: “Shut up!” Go5HPu

Xu Qichen usually wears emotionless expressions on his face and has the most gentle attitude towards people and things. Seeing him all riled up like this, Lin Ran felt a great sense of accomplishment.

The bottom of the ice cream tub could be seen. Lin Ran scraped the spoon around the tub, walked up to Xu Qichen, and stuffed a large scoop of ice cream into Xu Qichen’s mouth.

“The last bite, for you.”

“Only little kids are so protective of their food.” IwWzdO

Xu Qichen, with a mouthful of ice cream, could only stare blankly at Lin Ran, who finally couldn’t help it and laughed.

Backlit by the sun behind him, Xu Qichen discovered for the first time that Lin Ran, who was laughing unscrupulously, had a very unobvious tiger tooth.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

It’s very sharp, and hidden very deeply.

“Nan Ke! Yu Ning! Start working!” ScMrI9

“En!”

It was time to shoot, so Xu Qichen threw away all the extraneous thoughts in his mind. Suddenly the word ‘Congratulations’ appeared in front of him. It was 500 reward points. He quickly collected them and then devoted himself to shooting.

Fortunately, the kiss scene was a night scene, so he still had an entire day to slowly digest his emotions.

They had only been shooting for less than half an hour when the production director suddenly told them that foreign media would be coming in later to interview them both. Vt5IGM

They just happened to finish a scene when the foreign media came. Director Chen asked Lin Ran and Ji Mengze to be interviewed on the set itself.

It was a young female reporter who spoke English, but with a heavy French accent. It was quite tiring for Xu Qichen to comprehend. Fortunately, Lin Ran would prompt him, and most of the questions were related to the movie, which Lin Ran could answer easily. Xu Qichen just sat by the side and smiled.

When the interview segment was about to end, the reporter said with a smile, “I’m very interested in Chinese, and I want to learn. Can you teach me?”

“Of course.” Lin Ran smiled, “What do you want to learn?” dpZPUy

“What about… your names?”

Xu Qichen easily understood this sentence, so he took the initiative to speak, “Ji. Meng. Ze. That’s how you say my name.”

The reporter imitated him, saying the words one by one. The effect was not bad, just that the tone was a little strange.

Xu Qichen smiled. “You’re very talented, you said it well.” kiSJQR

“Thank you!” The reporter who was praised was very happy. She turned to look at Lin Ran.

Lin Ran immediately said, “My name is much easier, there’s only two words. Lin. Ran.”

The reporter followed him, “Lin. Ruan.”

This pronunciation made Lin Ran wonder whether he should laugh or cry. He said three ‘no’s, then repeated himself: “Lin. Ran.” SwP lq

“Lin. Ruan.”

“Lin Ran.”

“Lin Ruan.”

“Lin Ran…” 1jPmtq

“Lin Ruan…”

Xu Qichen, who was sitting beside them, laughed till he was squatting on the floor, almost unable to catch his breath. This was the first time Lin Ran had seen Xu Qichen laughing so heartily.

Although the reporter didn’t get why Xu Qichen was laughing, she could guess she had mispronounced the name. Somewhat embarrassedly, she said, “Looks like it’s not as easy as we thought.”

Lin Ran shrugged helplessly, “It’s my name that isn’t good.” ju 5lz

He then pulled up the Xu Qichen who was laughing so hard that his eyes had teared up, said some official phrases, and concluded the interview.

They went back to filming.

That evening, during a break from shooting, from a distance, Lin Ran saw Xu Qichen looking at his phone and laughing so hard that he made sounds like a baby rabbit burping after drinking milk.

Seeing him laugh for a whole ten minutes, Lin Ran couldn’t stand it anymore. He walked over, snatched the phone out of his hands, and with a fake smile asked the Xu Qichen, who was lying back on a recliner, “What’s so funny, tell me so I can laugh with you ah.” jMCvqI

Xu Qichen was not annoyed when his phone was robbed. The smile on his face dimmed a little, “You won’t find it funny, give it back to me ba.”

Lin Ran looked down at the opened Weibo interface on the phone.

How could he have expected the French to be so efficient? The interview was broadcast in the afternoon and was already ported to Weibo.

The netizens were reposting the interview video frantically. aUqrtf

[Has Lin Ran married me today?]: The first media visit video for Nan Ke has appeared lah, it’s foreign media, quickly come try out our Nan Ke-gege’s youth aura!

The text on Weibo was written in a fan’s style, but the reposts were going completely off track.

@little prince not little princess: Unceasingly emphasising ‘soft’ in front of a man, this foreign jiejie is really 666. Lin Ran amazingly acted out ‘smiling on the surface and scolding mmp internally’. //@I have a joke: My first reaction when watching this video was exactly the same as Ji Mengze hahaha! //@Beauty base: Hahahahaha beautiful reporter jiejie has much potential, her pronunciation of ‘soft’ is so precise! She’s really a potential Chinese scholar! //@entirely collapsed: Hahahaha your ID and the video match too well! Died laughing! //@Looking for my source of happiness: Special ability starts at 12:34, no need to thank me!

The comments section was filled with screenshots and emojis, as well as Lin Ran’s and Ji Mengze’s meng points in the video.

[I have a horn on my head]: Lin Ran: You’re soft! Your whole family is soft!.jpg

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

[Watermelon Ice Head]: Lin Ruan is such a shou name, this actor is a gong ai!

[Got a double S mark]: Ji Mengze’s laugh is too sweet ba, is it good to be so happy at someone else’s suffering? Lin Ran pulling Ji Mengze’s collar like picking up a little chicken~ This is the best tasting pair I shipped this year! 3TSJVB

[Only boys are so cute]: Don’t just watch from the 12th minute ah! In the earlier part of the interview Ji Mengze was so confused, Lin Ran kept translating for him softly. The gaze is the key point! Come try it ah sisters!

[Reincarnated eyelash spirit]: RuanMeng CP is too cute! Thanks reporter jiejie for the name!

The focus suddenly shifted on their CP name…

Xu Qichen watched Lin Ran’s expressions change. His frown slowly relaxed and he even began smiling weirdly. od0PLF

Xu Qichen took his phone back, “What did you see?”

“Nothing, if you have the energy to check Weibo, why not read the script.”

“I have already memorised it.” Xu Qichen stuck out his tongue in response.

  1. They’re so cute, these interactions give me life hahaha. Lin Ran’s teasing, Xu Qichen sticking out his tongue as he says he’s already memorized it, they’re just unbelievably adorable, I can’t stop smiling. Love seeing the development! Just love them, really, everything they do is great

    Thank you so much for translating! <3

  2. I got a good laugh out of it, too! This is soul cleansing, I suspect I need it in the upcoming chapters.

  3. That couple is so hillarious through their differences in character and in the reulting interactions, made my day.

  4. ruan!!! LMAO my stomach hurts! That jiejie is too 6, brought out his true calling without knowing Chinese. Indeed, soft on the inside. RuanMeng is a very suitable CP name 😂

  5. I’m such a baby when I’m tired that I probably would burst out crying if someone stole my ice cream. 😂 Glad our boy is more even-keeled than me.
