Chapter 740 - RW 1.35

"Oh, come on, I already make the contract for you to sign, if that's what you want. There is no need to audition and stuff. I will do everything for you, Yun'er," Junze said. "I can even give you the whole company if you want—"

"No," Yunyu denied, short and quick. "This is your company, and you work for it with your blood, sweat, and tears. I will never take everything for granted."

"Just make me a talent. I will work hard. I will prove to you that I'm worthy of being cast in a series or movie…." Yunyu said. "Though, I'd try with smaller parts first, hehe."

Yunyu knew that Junze would definitely cast him as the main star in some blockbuster movie. But he didn't want to compete with Han Ye Gege. He just wanted to earn enough through some web drama or small series.

Yunyu knew what happened when he tried to play in a series, especially with Han Ye Gege. 

Han Ye would punch him, then kick him out of the cast, even though it was Yunyu's first acting role that he anticipated so much. 

[Maybe it was a way that Han Ye Gege did to humble me…]

Zhu Junze sighed, "I can definitely put you as the main character in a movie. But since you refuse, how about you play the main character in a web drama? There is a new Boys Love Web drama, and if you're interested, then I can cast you as the main character."

"Oh! BL?! That's great. Please cast me in!" Yunyu nodded excitedly. Of course, BL was his favourite genre. He read tons of doujin, BL manga/manhwa/manhua, BL audio, animation, and live-action drama!

Zhu Junze smiled when he saw Yunyu being happy again. He always dreamed of Yunyu smiling at him, and that was the only reward he wanted, at least right now. 

"Then, shall we have our dinner before I drive you back home?" Junze asked.

"Oh, sure!" 

**

Zhu Junze and Bai Yunyu had their dinner together. They mostly talked about random stuff. 

Junze wanted to ask more about Yunyu's life in this world because he wanted to be as close as possible. But Yunyu tried to dodge many questions, especially those about his job.

"Ah, I'm working as a crew in filming usually. I also become an extra for many series!" Yunyu lied to Junze. 

"Then, all is well?"

"All is well. I just asked Ronghui for a new job because I don't want to be an extra forever, hehe~."

Somehow, Zhu Junze had a feeling that Yunyu was lying to him. But he had no proof, and it didn't seem that Yunyu wanted to talk about it. 

"Yunyu, talk to me if you need anything, okay?" Junze said. "I want you by my side, smiling and being joyful, even if that joy isn't for me…."

…

Junze drove Yunyu back to his duplex, and before Yunyu opened the car door, Junze pecked his cheek gently.

"A light kiss wouldn't hurt, right?"

…

Yunyu was silent the whole time. He felt conflicted because he was being doted by another man while his heart harboured with only one person in this world.

Yunyu said goodbye to Zhu Junze after giving Junze his phone number and went inside his duplex.

Yunyu stared at the big poster of Han Ye in the living room and wondered, "Han Ye Gege, can you treat me like a human being, just once?"

**

Yunyu got up early morning after he heard his phone ring nonstop. He checked the caller and then picked up the call.

"Hello, Jinren-Ge…"

"Yunyu, where were you yesterday? I was worried sick!" Huang Jinren said across the call. "I searched for you after we finished the shoot, and you're nowhere to be found. I thought you must be home, so I went to your duplex, and it's locked, empty…."

"Oh, don't worry about me, Jinren-Ge. I was auditioning for another role. You know, I have to make ends meet," Yunyu replied. "I'm sorry for not texting you about it."

"Well, it's alright, as long as you're okay. But did you get the role?" He asked. 

"Ah, I do, but I don't want to tell you what that is, hehe~."

"Hmm? Why?" Huang Jinren chuckled as he heard Yunyu's mischievous tone.

"It will be a surprise, of course, ~ Don't worry, Jinren-Ge. I will be doing okay," Yunyu said. Honestly, he tried to hide this to Huang Jinren because if Huang Jinren knew that Yunyu was starring in a small web drama with BL genre, Huang Jinren would demand to be the main lead of that drama to play with Yunyu.

And it would start a chain of events because Huang Jinren and tons of fans would boost the popularity of that BL web drama. A particular person would notice it and do something malicious just to pull Yunyu down. 

Of course, we were talking about Han Ye Gege here. Who else?

Even if he tried to hide it, just one news might have ignited Han Ye Gege to ruin the whole web drama with his unchallenged popularity and support. 

[Haish, his unbelievably handsome face really put him in some kind of God position. Not that I'm complaining, he deserves all the greatness in this world. He is probably the master of this world or some sort.]

[But still, I want to earn enough money, so I can continue supporting him without dying out of hunger or malnutrition.]

Huang Jinren was relieved that Yunyu didn't seem to be terrible after what Han Ye did to him. Because he was worried that Yunyu would be in a deep depression after Han Ye humiliated him like that by siding to counterfeit like Bi Hexian.

"Anyway, I'll be going to the studio for the first briefing. Jinren-Ge, you should take a rest today!" 

"Yunyu, you won't ask me what happened during that retake of Bai Shijue's scene?"

"Huh? What happened? All is well, right?" Yunyu asked.

"All is well except for one person, Bi Hexian."
