I stepped out of a million-dollar cabriolet and walked towards the luxurious seaview villa spread before me. The butler pulled open the door for me and maids and valets bowed in a neat formation, loudly greeting, “Good morning, missus.”
At this moment, a man in sunglasses came up from behind and wrapped an arm around my waist, calling me sweetheart affectionately.
Turning my head, I smiled at him and helped him take off his sunglasses.
For some unknown reason, perhaps because he was backlit by the light, I couldn’t clearly see his face.
But I knew that he was my hubby.
He held my waist, and the two of us were close together. My gaze climbed up bit by bit, and finally, I saw his true face.
Jiang Ran?!
He lowered his head, softly calling me, “Babe.”
116
……!! I jolted, only half-awake, I felt as if I was sunk into the soft bed. The sky spinning and the earth going round, I flopped 180° upside down, almost slamming my head into the headboard.
Someone knocked noisily on the door.
I rubbed my eyes, then heard that it was my agent at the door. “Brother Shuyao. Quickly wake up, or you’ll be late for the opening ceremony.”
Still slightly disoriented from my dream, I hazily replied with a “kay”.
But my agent said, “Open the door. I’ve to supervise you and make sure you arrive on time.”
117
I got off the bed, groggy-eyed as I opened the door. My agent gave me a lookover. “Brother Shuyao, what beautiful dreams were you having? I called you over a dozen times but you never picked up.”
“Hm?” I lazily responded.
My agent kept shaking his head at me. “Did you really use to be a fat otaku in the past? Look, you’re even drooling.”
?? I touched the corner of my lips, stunned as I finally recalled what happened a few minutes ago.
I dreamt of Jiang Ran, and he even frigging hugged my waist and called me babe!
118
My agent admonished again, “Hurry and go shower.”
1x stunned face, 2x stunned faces… 100,000,000x stunned faces as I stood in front of the mirror.
They say that your thoughts in the day become your dreams in the night. It is true that I’ve always dreamt of striking rich overnight, but Jiang Ran… where did this subliminal message come from? Even enthralling me to the point of drooling?
Several seconds later, I regained my composure.
This must be post-trauma from the previous parody mashup of Jiang Ran’s god-tier sand-sculpture dogblood drama. [confident face]
119
Good thing that I’m the one writing the screenplay for the drama I’m acting in this time. It won’t end up like those written by eccentric screenwriters who pollute young minds.
Thinking about this, I proudly puffed up my chest; I’ve done my part to clean up the entertainment industry.
The whole world owes me a Best Screenplay Award!

It’s been three years! My life is finally going on the right track!!
During which, there were too many untold sorrows, hardships, being treated with scorn and derision. But these are now a time of the past.
Do your best, little Mo Shuyao, leggo!
121
My soul practically toppling over in excitement, the sandalwood in my hands snapped in half, and a little spark of ash instantly flicked onto my hand.
Ouch, hot…
I shrunk my shoulders and inhaled sharply.
Jiang Ran was walking in front of me. He turned back to glance at me.
I seemed to see a small look of contempt.
“……”
I felt that the pain spread from my finger to my heart.
122
After the opening ceremony was done, the assistant brought us to the makeup rooms.
I initially thought that Film Emperor Jiang would put on airs and open his private VIP makeup room. However, he didn’t.
There was also a third male lead in this drama, a colleague of the second male lead I’m acting, also a forensic doctor.
I don’t know where Jiang Ran sent him off to. In any case, it was only the two of us in this makeup room.
The costumes for the formal production were similar to the previously shot teaser posters. After putting on makeup, the assistant brought us to the shooting site.
123
The third male lead, Wen Zhao, immediately flew over when he saw Jiang Ran, clutching hold of his hand and energetically shaking it.
“Film Emperor Jiang, Senior Jiang… being able to work with you is my greatest…”
I almost burst out laughing seeing his zeal, saying in my head, ‘Don’t be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den; Jiang Ran isn’t as good as you imagine him to be.’
However, before he could finish his words, Jiang Ran had already apathetically retracted his hand, turning over to put an arm around my waist.
!! Jiang Ran, what are you trying to do?!
This scene is a spitting image of what happened in my morning dream.
Is it possible that the heavens have decreed today to be the day that Jiang Ran will gay me?
124
Before I could even struggle out of it, he already pressed my head to his chest, pulling out his phone. With a kacha-kacha, he snapped two photos of my little dumbfounded face.
125
He seemed satisfied. A slight smile appeared on that emotionally stunted face which rarely showed any flicker of expression. He straightaway began fiddling with his phone.
My agent came up to me, “Brother Shuyao, President Jiang has posted a Weibo, follow him and post one too.”
I checked Weibo.
Jiang Ran √ : First day of production. I found my Diu Diu, I won’t ever lose you again. [image]
Me: !!!
126
Within one short minute, Jiang Ran’s fans and the novel fans teleported to the battlefield—
> President Jiang, you’ve changed. Please maintain this posting speed, I super love it!
> Actually calling him Diu Diu, I’ve verified it with my eyes~ ♪ President Jiang must have read the novel. (whispers, may I ask if you’ve read the extras)
> Eating up the way you call him Diu Diu; I want to be your Diu Diu too!
And so on, so forth.
127
“……”
My heart was without a single ripple… like real!
Diu Diu was the nickname that the gong Jiang Ran was acting secretly gave the shou.
But that was content that only appeared after two-thirds of the novel was through. Also, in the later half of this novel, the emotional line grew intensely hot.
Everyday the gong would act out and press the shou against a coffin, taking his little whip and lashing it around at a hair-trigger, just short of causing the corpse in the coffin to dance disco…
128
I’m screwed, I’m so screwed. From the looks of it, this supergay has really finished reading the full text.
Who knows, maybe he had even clapped in high glee on the inside, praising, ‘This novel is crazy good!’
I don’t dare to imagine it anymore.
129
I swear. This novel started off as pure as clean water, completely focused on plot and power progression. Really.
Unfortunately, newcomers writing plot-heavy works often get kicked to the curb. My editor was the one who pointed me to the right path.
On the verge of starving to death on my keyboard, I was forced to compromise. I tossed together a third male lead and changed the characterisations.
And from then on, I used my keyboard to knock open the doors to a whole new world—
Everyday the cannon fodder third male lead farted rainbows for the gong, yet was never given the time of the day;
Everyday the shou gave the gong the cold treatment, yet the gong’s eyes would never leave his figure for a single moment.
The gong who initially appeared aloof and untouchable was written by me into an incorrigible, overbearing flirt on the inside;
The shou who looked righteous and badass was written by me into a little coquettish cinnamon roll.
That’s right, you guessed it. It’s the ‘wild gong x coquettish shou’ trope~
130
Now that the opportunity is before me, I must personally handle the operating knife and edit the plotline, returning the stolen innocence to my children.
But after seeing Jiang Ran’s earlier series of operations…
WTS, the actions of this guy are even wilder than what I wrote.
10,000 times wilder!
Jiang Ran will surely shine brilliantly with his thick skin; if I get too embarrassed to keep the act up, wouldn’t I just become a foil?
That’s really overboard, no?
I’m the original author, yet I just frigging dug pits for myself.
131
The more I thought of it, the more I felt like tearing up. The hand holding the smoke… tremoured.
[keep calm and analyse.jpg]
Oh, right. I need to draft out a Weibo post.
Since Jiang Ran had gone ahead to post a selfie of us, doesn’t that mean that I also have to take one with him?
Else the anti-fans would spit at me, saying that I think myself above everyone.
But how can I ask this supergay for a selfie together of my own volition?
132
I scanned the room but didn’t find Jiang Ran. Just when I clutched my phone in indecision, my burn wound suddenly split.
“Tss!” I inhaled sharply, almost flinging my phone away.
133
It turned out that I had burst a blister. Pus was even squeezed out.
I stared at the unbearably tragic sight. Before I could react, someone had taken hold of my palm from behind.
Jiang Ran, who had appeared out of nowhere, moved in for a closer look. “You’re too careless.”
I shrank my shoulders inwards in fright.
He gestured to the assistant. “Hurry up and get medication to treat Mo Shuyao.”
I didn’t know whether to be touched or terrified.
Did this supergay put a GPS on me?
Homing in on my position, never missing an opportunity to gay me, anywhere, anytime.
MC still in denial but it’s okay, his subconscious got them dreams
Kekekeke
I do wonder if he knows the granny, author, and actor are all the same person.
Also, did he like him from before?
Thanks for the chapter <3
My god i want a dollar everytime he says the word gay, would be rich by now…
Thanks for the chapter € ^ *^)/// ~~ ♡♡♡♡♡
MSY: traumatized ‘Did I get myself a stalker or what ?’
Me: It’s alright~~It’s your fate !
Also,thanks for the chapter ♡ ♡♡♡
Thanks for the chapter.
Thank you for the chapter
thanks for the chapter ♡
i really hope he’ll be serious in writing and acting the movie ah. there are many benefits to doing so, such as: lots of money, lots more opportunities to make money, making good art, not pissing off fans who know your real name, not making those fans stop harassing the actor account using the author account, slapping those who said you’re just an nth generation who paid to be the second male lead in the face, getting gayed for us readers, etc.
LOL.
So dumb.
I swear I’m getting more and more dumb as well…
If I were in MC’s shoes, I would also feel panicked since ML has the ability to make on become bent. MC is the only, lucky one to have the privilege to be bent by Ml 😘
The MC is very obsessed about not being gayified! Protest much!
ahhh i was a bit surprised by the r slur out of nowhere 🥲🥲🥲 i will just pretend to not see it even if it made me a bit uncomfortable
Changed, thanks for flagging out
you gotta hold on, babe 🙂
