Chapter 149 : Wu Jin (3)

Chapter 149: Chapter 149 : Wu Jin (3)

"Yan Renzhong," Shen Jingwei growled, his voice muffled by the hand pressing against his lips.

In the darkness, it was impossible to look at Yan Renzhong’s face clearly, but he was definitely smiling.

"Hello, Jingbao," he said before giving Shen Jingwei a quick peck on the lips.

"What are you doing here? What if Old Zhu finds out... Eh? Old Zhu? Where is Old Zhu?"

Yan Renzhong lay sideways next to Shen Jingwei and ran his hand across Shen Jingwei’s form lazily.

"Must you mention other man when we are cuddling in bed...?"

"Don’t joke around, where is Old Zhu?"

"In his tent, of course," Yan Renzhong replied with a yawn.

"... Am I not in the same tent as he is?"

"You were," Yan Renzhong corrected him. "But I asked him to switch with me. Your manager is quite agreeable, I must say."

"..."

Old Zhu! Shen Jingwei howled in his head. Are you selling me off to Yan Renzhong? Where is your conscience???

"Am I the only one who rejoices over the fact that we get to spend time together in Frosty Mist Mountain Falls?" Yan Renzhong said with a sigh. His disappointment was palpable.

"You are acting like we never spend our time together during the shooting periods," Shen Jingwei replied, his brows shooting to his hair in disapproval.

"Do we? Unless I am mistaken, you and I belong to different cliques altogether."

Shen Jingwei cleared his throat.

If Yan Renzhong said it like that, then he, Shen Jingwei, had indeed been hanging out with Yunhuan Entertainment’s talents a lot more than CNC Studio’s.

"How was the shooting at Peak Point Shooting Studio?" He asked, steering the topic onto a more friendly one.

"Good," came the curt answer.

"Is everything alright with Lang Yuxuan?"

"Mhm. We finished the scenes after 20 takes."

"Which scene did he stumble at...?"

Yan Renzhong chuckled.

"The ones where he was supposed to hang onto Zhang Fengxi like a spoiled omega."

"..."

It was more or less the same kind of scene that tripped Shen Jingwei up before.

The intimate scenes.

Karma was surely a bitch.

"I thought you talked to him."

"Yes, I did."

"And didn’t that help?"

"It did. Unfortunately, I am not responsible for his acting quality. By right, every actor and actress has to work on maintaining steady performance before the camera."

Shen Jingwei nodded stiffly.

"Pretty much, yes. Ah...!"

Yan Renzhong pulled Shen Jingwei toward himself, causing the latter to lie atop him.

"What about us?" He asked, his voice as slimy as a pervert’s. "Should we practice for the wedding night?"

Smack.

Yan Renzhong broke into a guffaw.

"Stupid."

Shen Jingwei climbed off Yan Renzhong’s body, only to be drawn into the latter’s arms again.

"Let me hold you," Yan Renzhong whispered against the crown of Shen Jingwei’s head. "It has been so long since I got to hold you the last time."

Shen Jingwei chuckled.

"It was like a week ago."

"A week is too long."

"What is not long then...?"

"An hour."

"..."

Yan Renzhong burrowed his nose into the crook of Shen Jingwei’s neck and inhaled the man’s sweet scent.

"Actually, even an hour is too long."

"..."

Yan Renzhong used to be a recluse who did not care much for intimacy. When did he become so clingy again?

Shen Jingwei cupped Yan Renzhong’s face in his hands and peered at him.

"Did something possess you on the road?" He asked suspiciously. "You were never this thirsty for skin-to-skin contact."

"I know."

Yan Renzhong lowered his head and gave Shen Jingwei a kiss on the lips.

"I once possessed the entire world in the palms of my hand, but I was too foolish and let it slip through my fingers."

"..."

"I never thought that you will return to my side. This time, I will not let you go."

Yan Renzhong’s words were almost creepy, but they touched Shen Jingwei’s heart nonetheless.

He, too, had many times dismissed the possibility of reigniting the spark of romance between them.

In a way, Song Zhuguan’s unexpected appearance at Nanwu Town brought them back together.

Shen Jingwei chuckled. He pressed his hands against Yan Renzhong’s, intertwining their fingers together, before deepening their kiss and claiming the man for himself.

"I love you," he whispered.

This time, he got an "I love you too" in return.

Shen Jingwei sighed from pleasure when Yan Renzhong nibbled on his neck, pampering him with sweet kisses.

If it were a dream, he did not want to wake up.

If it weren’t, then he wanted the time to stop at this junction, so he could stay here with Yan Renzhong, forever savoring their love for each other.

Sometime later, in the middle of the night, they fell asleep in each other’s arms, only to be woken up by a crew’s morning call outside the tent several hours later.

"Mr. Yan, please wake up! We need to shoot in an hour! And has anyone seen Mr. Shen???"

Shen Jingwei almost jumped from the mattress. It was still dark outside, and the crew was the only person moving from tent ti tent.

"What am I supposed to do?" Shen Jingwei asked frantically. "I need to leave, now!"

"Oh, relax, Jingbao."

Yan Renzhong drew the tent flap aside and called out, "Shen Jingwei is here with me."

"....."

Shen Jingwei was so mortified he could die.

"Do you not care about my reputation at all???" He hissed at Yan Renzhong.

The latter gave him a look.

"Shen Jingwei, you should at least get naked before you can put any indecent thoughts in others’ mind."

"Yes, but I am...! You know! And everyone else knows too...!"

Yan Renzhong grinned at him shamelessly.

"I am supposedly straight. We have only been sleeping side-by-side innocently like two scout boys. What’s the problem?"

"..."

Shen Jingwei smacked at his own face.

"Yan Renzhong!" He howled.

The crew member rushed toward them.

"Ah, Mr. Yan, Mr. Shen, good morning. Please get ready as soon as possible and head toward the preparation tent to get into your costume."

He did not make any comment about them being in the same tent at all.

"..."

Was he, Shen Jingwei, being too cautious or what? Do men sleep with each other all the time and no one ever questioned their relationship...?

While Shen Jingwei was occupied with a lot of thoughts, a notification arrived at Yan Renzhong’s phone.

"Go now," Yan Renzhong said after giving Shen Jingwei a crisp slap across his butt. "I will follow after you."

Shen Jingwei shot his boyfriend a glare before he left the tent with a slight wobble.

Still smiling to himself like a fool, Yan Renzhong checked his phone and read the text message.

"Be careful," it said. "Wu Jin has come out to play."
