BE Crazy Demon Survival System [Quick Transmigration]Ch21 - The Peak of Competition Between Beauty and Acting Skills (21)

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Xu Qichen is not stupid, he could tell that Lin Ran’s attitude was strange, but in order to avoid accidentally hurting himself, he pretended not to notice anything. sl8g D

Soon after Lin Ran laughed, “Just kidding. However, when it’s time to promote the film, there will definitely be CP fanservice involved.”

Bai Yi laughed as well, “Yes, that’s to be expected, our company has always had CP fanservice.” Saying, he bumped Shen Huan’s shoulder. “Actually, Ah Huan is explosively popular with the ladies in private, and he had many girlfriends before debuting, but the company decided that he matched well with Mengze, so they became the official pairing. Even the CP name, Menghuan CP, sounds good. Leader’s and Jiangling’s CP name also sounds nice~ it’s called Qilin CP. I’m the only one without an official pairing hahaha.”

Xu Qichen sighed. Why did this Bai Yi have such terrible vision? “Eat quickly ba, or the food will turn cold.”

“Fine,” Bai Yi curled his lips. “But I noticed yours and Lin Ran’s CP has been really popular lately too, a lot of people are discussing it on Weibo. So many people are jumping into the pit before you’re even done filming, it has infinite potential.” 8NSG0x

Shen Huan removed his gloves. “Has no one told you to speak less while eating?”

Bai Yi glared at him, “Because you said so, I’ll speak more.” He ferociously twisted off the head of a crayfish and threw it on Shen Huan’s hand. Then, as though he recalled something, he said, “By the way Mengze, will you still be filming in the hotel tonight?”

Xu Qichen nodded, “We rented this suite for a day, so we have to film two scenes today. That earlier scene is more or less done, tonight there’s a…” Xu Qichen suddenly stopped speaking and turned to look at Lin Ran.

Slowly, Lin Ran blinked and raised the corners of his lips.

“A what?”

Xu Qichen, who had recalled what they were filming tonight, tried to gloss it over, “Ah… it’s just…”

Lin Ran answered unequivocally, “Bed scene.”

Bai Yi was firmly choked by those two words, he began coughing uncontrollably. RbJa8W

Shen Huan shifted away with a look of disdain, “I told you to talk less, you deserve that.”

Xu Qichen hurriedly helped Bai Yi open his drink. “Quickly, have a sip.”

Bai Yi took a big gulp of the drink and continued coughing. It took him a while to recover, “As expected of Director Chen’s film. Can I ask what’s the scale of the bed scene?”

Xu Qichen sighed, “Why are you so gossipy, it’s not like you think, there are no explicit shots.” jHOCUF

“Will you be pulling the light?”

Shen Huan viciously knocked on Bai Yi’s head, “Shut up!”

Lin Ran replied with a smile, “It’s more like pulling the light after doing it halfway.”

Bai Yi, with an expression of excitement: “How much is halfway?” lzNKPM

Xu Qichen, with an expression of embarrassment: “Can we stop discussing this topic…” They were here to visit, so why were they suddenly discussing the bed scene while eating crayfish?

Seeing Xu Qichen’s expression, Bai Yi picked up his drink and clinked Xu Qichen’s with it. “It’s no big deal, straight men are fearless~”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Xu Qichen buried his head further.

Most importantly, he’s not even a straight man ah… qeL5Ta

Bai Yi once again opened his chatterbox, “What’s there to be afraid of? I’ll tell you, once I was surfing randomly on Weibo and accidentally opened a long picture, it gave me a real shock! It turned out to be a threesome erotica of Ming Qi, Jiang Ling and me! I was so shocked my hand nearly slipped and ‘liked’ it!”

Xu Qichen reminded him in a whisper, “Lower your voice.”

Looking at Bai Yi’s expression of ‘old father tearing up’, Xu Qichen was left speechless.

Lin Ran picked up the canned drink in front of Xu Qichen, “Having to film his very first bed scene with me, isn’t that terrible?” Then he took a sip. NQ4enc

At this moment, Xu Qichen’s only wish was to have his soul removed from this public execution scene. Suddenly his thigh felt ticklish. He looked down and saw that Lin Ran had casually placed his hand there.

Xu Qichen looked at him from the corner of his eye to find that that person was calmly chatting with Bai Yi, acting perfectly normal.

“No ah, if I were given such a chance, I’d be 200% willing!” Bai Yi exclaimed excitedly. Shen Huan was about to speak but was stopped by Bai Yi, “Okay, don’t say anymore, I know I’m dreaming.”

Xu Qichen’s hand was still gloved so he couldn’t remove Lin Ran’s hand. He could only try to shift his thigh away, but it was firmly held in place by the other party. 1ZRiSL

This person really likes to tease others ah.

Xu Qichen was upset, so he viciously stomped on Lin Ran’s foot.

“Ah!”

Bai Yi’s exclamation made Xu Qichen shiver in fright, thinking he stepped on the wrong person’s foot. Xyh9kr

“I just remembered, I left the cake I bought for you at the company…” Bai Yi had a tearful expression, “It will surely be confiscated by Yun-jie.”

Lin Ran, whose composure was impeccable despite his foot having been stomped on, asked, “Why?”

Bai Yi imitated Li Yun’s tone: “An idol’s vocation is body management.” He sighed, “Mengze is the only one in our group who can eat whatever he wants and not gain weight.”

Xu Qichen replied internally, That’s because it’s his character setting ah… I8psfm

“Speaking of, you have already filmed kiss scenes ba~”

Xu Qichen finally snapped, “Why are you starting again! Quickly finish eating and leave ba, I still have to work.”

Bai Yi with an aggrieved expression: “Mengze how can you treat me like this~ I’m just concerned about you ma.”

Shen Huan had also run out of patience. He pulled Bai Yi up, “Go go go, you’re really very annoying. We have to visit the stylist, stop pestering him.” 5UvaLg

Bai Yi, who had also received the WeChat notification, had no choice but to end this visiting adventure tearfully.

After sending off his group members, Xu Qichen let out a long breath.

This meal had been overly exhausting.

All of a sudden he felt his shoulder sink. 8d FVR

Lin Ran, who was standing behind him, had rested his chin on his shoulder.

“My foot hurts ah.”

Xu Qichen shifted his shoulder away, “Because you teased me.”

Lin Ran gave him an innocent look, “I didn’t ah.” nLEchQ

Knowing he would not admit it, Xu Qichen simply began walking.

Lin Ran followed behind him. “What about your ice box, you haven’t been using it since we came back, I want to eat ice cream.”

Xu Qichen: “I got rid of it in France, there was no need to ship it back. Why do you suddenly want to eat ice cream?”

“My tongue hurts ah,” Lin Ran complained, “I just ate such spicy crayfish with you ai.” GD2Ks4

Xu Qichen turned around to face Lin Ran, “Why are you speaking with this tone, have you been brought astray by Bai Yi?”

Hearing this, Lin Ran sighed extremely helplessly. “You’re really a blank sheet in this aspect ah.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Xu Qichen: “Which aspect?”

Lin Ran waved his hands, “Forget it, it’s nothing.” QC V3A

After saying that, Lin Ran left and Xu Qichen did not stop him. He called Xiaoxiao to help with the clean up. Although Xiaoxiao was unwilling to let him be involved, Xu Qichen did not think of himself as a celebrity. To him, it was just an occupation.

Rather than Lin Ran’s words, Xu Qichen, who was idle, was more worried about tonight’s bed scene. He felt faint whenever he thought of it. He could barely cope with the kiss scenes, let alone a bed scene… He’s afraid he’d be stiff with fright when the time comes.

Plus, the script was very simple, this scene relied heavily on the actors’ improvisation.

Xu Qichen could only turn to the character’s biography he had written himself for inspiration. ojf7dV

After some time, Chen Anping’s voice came from behind him, “What are you reading?”

“Ah?” Xu Qichen stood up.

“You wrote a character biography?” Director Chen’s eyes revealed his approval, “Few actors are so serious nowadays.”

Xu Qichen was somewhat embarrassed. Writing character biographies is a habit he had developed as a writer. jdlOrR

“You must be very nervous.” Chen Anping chuckled, “It’s really no big deal, a bed scene is just another scene, who the other party is isn’t important. Just like dating, some like girls and some just like boys, what does it matter?”

As expected, there are pros to setting an overseas background, Xu Qichen thought to himself. It’s not every day that you hear such words from a middle-aged director.

“I’m not conflicted about filming a bed scene with a male actor,” Xu Qichen explained. “Actually, I’m worried because I lack experience, I don’t want to hold the crew back because I can’t act well.”

Chen Anping chuckled again: “It’s normal to not act well. In fact, I’d be surprised if you did well in your first bed scene.” He patted Xu Qichen’s shoulder, “My only request is that you immerse yourself entirely in the character.” v8wV9y

Xu Qichen nodded.

Chen Anping was right, the character gap between his own and Yu Ning’s during this period was so large it resembled a collection and amplification of all the negative or even darker sides of his heart.

“Plus we don’t need any overly explicit takes, or passing the film review would be very troublesome. Since we want to convey certain messages via this film, we have to guarantee it can be shown in local theatres or it’d be meaningless.”

Chen Anping said this very sincerely. According to Xu Qichen’s setting, although there was no complete ban on homosexuality in this world, prejudice still existed. He did not like making the world settings overly perfect because those imaginary worlds divorced from reality would lose a lot of realism and resonance. AeWl7T

“En.”

“Later when Lin Ran gets here, we will discuss the specific process and position et cetera, the art team will also be here to help direct the prop and camera placements.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Xu Qichen nodded. After chatting with Chen Anping, the fear in his heart had lessened.

Remembering something, Xu Qichen asked in his mind: “0901, I want to buy something.” 0SKNs3

0901: “What does Mr. Xu need?”

Xu Qichen: “Do you have ice cream?”

0901: “I do, which flavour does Mr. Xu want?”

Xu Qichen: “… Lemon ba.” cSAQzG

0901: “Okay.”

Xu Qichen: “Wait, give it to me when I’m alone.”

0901: “Okay…”

Xu Qichen walked behind a prop board, “Done.” aHm W9

0901: “Reach out, Mr. Xu.”

Xu Qichen obediently reached out and a tub of lemon flavoured ice cream appeared in his hand. He was very satisfied. Even seeing the number of points on his account reduce by 500 didn’t make his heart hurt.

He looked around and found Lin Ran sitting in a corner and seriously reading the script. After some hesitation, Xu Qichen quietly walked up to him, placed the ice cream beside him, then walked away as though nothing had happened.

“Stop!” As expected, Lin Ran called out to him. “Do you think I’m blind?” qY3 MQ

Xu Qichen turned around. “No, I didn’t want to disturb you.”

Lin Ran glanced at the ice cream and a childish smile spread across his features, “You really bought ice cream for me ah.” He happily tore the packaging open, “When did you find the time to buy it?”

“Ah…” Xu Qichen felt very guilty, “I sent Xiaoxiao out to buy it.” Seeing that Lin Ran had cheered up, Xu Qichen breathed a sigh of relief, “Then I’ll…”

“Wait.” Lin Ran stood up, “I want to explain.” dM5hjk

“Explain what?”

“Earlier you asked me why I did those things, I said you were a blank sheet in a certain aspect.”

Xu Qichen: “En.”

Lin Ran’s expression suddenly became serious. SmOdrJ

“Firstly, I haven’t been led astray by Bai Yi, I was acting cute.”

“Secondly, I wasn’t teasing you.”

He took a big step forward. Standing right in front of Xu Qichen, he said softly, “I was jealous.”

He felt as though his heart could not wait to jump out of his chest, onto the person before him. Rd8ErZ

This was an illusionary feeling that he had not felt in a very long time.
