Chapter 367: OG 1.8

"What are you two doing?" Long Sheen asked. He squinted at Yunyu and Aaron, seemingly having his own suspicion in his heart. 

Yunyu distanced himself immediately from Aaron and approached Long Shen. He bowed his head deeply, "S—Sir, I didn't realize that you've just finished your scenes. Good work, sir." Yunyu said.

Long Shen looked down at Yunyu and then darted his gaze at Aaron Xu, whose eyes seemed to focus only on Yunyu. His frown grew deeper as he realized that this new actor had been eyeing Bai Yunyu.

As blunt as he was, Long Shen asked Aaron, "You, new kid, why are you staring at Yunyu? Did you disturb his work? I tell you, Bai Yunyu has been working with me for almost a year, he might be ugly, but he works hard under me."

"He is not ugly," Aaron refuted clear and concise. Long Shen stared at Aaron Xu and scoffed as he turned his head. "You don't need to hide the fact just because you are a new kid. No need to sugarcoat something obvious."

Long Shen walked away and said, "Follow me, Yunyu."

"Yes, Sir…" Yunyu glanced at Aaron Xu. He looked sad but said nothing and then followed Long Shen. 

They went back to Long Shen's reserved room, and Long Shen immediately slumped on the bed. Long Shen was too tired to do anything after so many scenes, but he still glanced at Yunyu, who was clearing the room and packing up his stuff. Long Shen couldn't help but ask;

"What did you do with that new kid?"

"Uh? W—We are just chatting, sir…" Yunyu replied.

"I see…" Long Shen said. He stared at Yunyu again and continued, "Next time, don't talk to him. He'll only disturb your work. You have so many things to do, don't slack off just because that new kid is talking with you. All new actors always do that. Once they've become popular, they will ignore you and mingle with someone more popular and more powerful."

"… Yes, sir…" Yunyu looked down. He really thought that Aaron Xu was actually kind to him. But knowing what Long Shen said, he must've known better about this as the top actor. 

Bai Yunyu prepared everything for Long Shen, so all Long Shen needed to do was hop in his car and leave. 

Before he left, Long Shen asked Yunyu, "I have another shoot in this place tomorrow morning, right?" 

"Yes, Sir."

"Then don't be late, you know I hate laziness," Long Shen dashed with his car, leaving Yunyu eating dust with his gaped mouth. 

"Who the heck is lazy!? You damn face con!" 

Yunyu returned to his rented apartment. He slumped on his bed. He was dead tired today, just like the previous day, and would be like this for the rest of his life. 

"God damn, either I will die by some yandere stuff, or I might've died out of exhaustion!" Yunyu yelled. Pupa materialized in front of him and swirled around. 

"Do you know that his Fatemeter is still 15%?  At this rate, if you don't do anything, Long Shen will definitely fall in love with Yulin. You need to do something, go create drama or something!"

Yunyu frowned at Pupa, "Since when you want me to do drama? Aren't you the one who always scolded me for making unnecessary drama?"

"Well, this is not a Breakmeter world. You don't need to clear anything. All you need to do is to fill Long Shen's Fatemeter. And you're the best at doing it by causing unnecessary drama."

…

"I wonder if that's your way of complimenting me."

Yunyu fell asleep immediately since he was too tired. He woke up the next day, took a bath, and did the same mundane task and went back to the shooting location. And again, he was too early today since there were only plenty of people inside.

Yunyu greeted Mr. Guo again and went to Long Shen's room to prepare his stuff. He also bought frozen food from the minimarket for Long Shen. Though, he wasn't sure if Long Shen would actually eat it, or maybe Yulin would pull off that homemade bullshit again. 

He was busy preparing for everything, but this time, he didn't leave Long Shen's office when Long Shen arrived.

"Sir, good morning—" Yunyu froze when he saw Long Shen was carrying Yulin in bridal style as Yulin rested his head on Long Shen's shoulder. 

"Bai Yunyu, take the first aid box and treat Yulin now. She accidentally tripped on the street, and I saw her on my way here," Long Shen said.

"Wuwu, I'm so sorry, Mr. Long Shen. I should've been more careful, now I've messed the breakfast that I made special for you…"

Yulin was crying as she rested her head on Long Shen's muscular chest, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Long…"

Long Shen smiled at Yulin, "Don't worry, it's just food. Besides, it's the effort that counts. I know you've been working hard nowadays."

"But I still feel guilty… I've called Senior Bai a few times to help me because I tripped not far from the shooting location, but he said that I should just go die…"

Long Shen's eyes widened as he glared at Yunyu, "Did you say that to Yulin?!"

Yunyu was scared under Long Shen's glare, but he didn't want to be the scapegoat every time. Thus he yelled courageously, "No! I've never gotten a call from her! I've been working here alone since morning!"

Yunyu turned his head at Yulin and yelled, "Don't lie, Yulin! Why do you keep slandering me like this?"

Yulin was both shocked and scared. She didn't expect Yunyu to be so bold to point out her slander. She hid her face on Long Shen's chest and trembled. She sobbed few times and said, "Mr. Long Shen, S—Senior Bai has been threatening me since yesterday… he said that I'm just a new assistant, so I shouldn't give you homemade food. H—He also said that I should not come earlier today because it will make him look bad in front of you…"

"Bai Yunyu!" Long Shen raised his voice.

"Sir, she's lying! How could I… how could I do that?!" 

"Aren't you the one who said that you hated my face yesterday, Senior Bai?" Yulin continued her drama. "You said that you want to smash my face just because I look better than you…."

"I'm just a new assistant, but I've been bullied like this. Mr. Long Shen, Senior Bai is so scary, wuwuwu…" Yulin trembled as she sunk her face on Long Shen's muscular chest. Yulin's acting was so realistic that Long Shen was completely convinced that Yunyu was bullying Yulin, a new assistant. And what made Long Shen even angrier was the fact that he hired Yulin to help Yunyu because he pitied Yunyu after he fainted.

But who would've thought that Yunyu could be so ungrateful that he would bully a young hardworking girl because of jealousy?

[Pupa: Ding! Long Shen's Fatemeter to Bai Yunyu decreases to 10%.]

[Pupa: Ding! Long Shen's Fatemeter to Zhou Yulin increases to 30%.]

Long Shen glared at Yunyu and unleashed his fury, "Not only you have an ugly face, but you also have an ugly heart! Leave now. I don't want to see your face!"
