Chapter 69: “Qinghuan, Are They Warm?” (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Yu Qinghuan never knew those things that happened behind. After he was discharged from hospital, he went to the sales office of Yanhe Community with Yu Xin and bought a 125-square-meter real estate on 31th floor on full payment. Finally he had a nest of his own.
About the decorating stuff, Yu Qinghuan only nailed the style he wanted and left all the rest to Yu Xin. He himself then went to the Grand Theatre every day and made a lot of friends there.
He was here to learn but not steal other’s job. So those casts in the Grand Theater apparently welcomed him. Except some small talks, they also taught him a lot of useful acting techniques.
This was a chance he even hadn’t got in his previous life. So Yu Qinghuan made full use of every minute to absorb all the knowledge like a sponge absorbing water.
Finally even Wang Zhensheng had to admit that he had made rapid progress.
“Look at you. Why do you go to the theater every day?” Yu Xin looked his own celebrity and said grumpily.
Since Shen Ji’s drama, Yu Qinghuan’s popularity had greatly increased. As a normal person, shouldn’t he receive more endorsements and scripts now? Why would his own celebrity would choose such an unusual way? Why would he choose to accumulate his acting skills? Maybe after he learnt enough, he would already flop again!
Yu Xin threw a stack of scripts in front of him and said bitterly, “These are the scripts I have collected for you. You read them now and then choose one! The Line of Life and Death will be released in the summer movie season. How to Love You will shot at least in July or August. There are nearly six months between. So you must take advantage of it and shoot at least one film.”
“I know.” Yu Qinghuan picked up the scripts and started to leaf through one by one.
Seeing Qinghuan finally drowned himself in it, Yu Xin pinched his fat belly and exhaled a long breath of relief.
A celebrity with koi’s luck but didn’t know how to cherish it was really something annoying!
Those scripts Yu Xin selected for him were mostly good quality, among which there was even a blockbuster he had acted in in his previous life. The only difference was he acted as the third male lead last time, but this time the director wanted him to try the second male lead!
To take the route he had taken in his previous life was kind of meaningless. So Yu Qinghuan directly put this script aside and opened the last one.
The moment he read it, he got deeply hooked.
The movie was called Orange, which told a story how a little girl’s elder brother found out the rapist, sent him to jail and helped his sister walk out the shade after she got raped.
It was at a cracking pace and the plots were cliff-hanging. With a good crew, it’d definitely be a masterpiece.
Yu Qinghuan looked at the director and scriptwriter and found it was the same person. But it was strange that in his previous life, he had never heard of such a talented guy.
“Ge, contact Zhao Rui for me.” Yu Qinghuan pointed at the name on the script, “I’ll take this one.”
“Who is Zhao Rui?” Yu Xin was a little confused and then looked at the name. After quite some time, he still couldn’t recall a director called Zhao Rui.
“This is weird.” Yu Xin muttered to himself, then stretched out for the script Orange. After checking other scripts, he patted the back side of his head, “I remember it! I picked this script out before! Why did it appear here?”
“Maybe destiny, I guess?” said Yu Qinghuan with a light smile, “I think this movie is not bad. I’ll take it.”
“Qinghuan, my ancestor!” Yu Xin was a little anxious, “such genre is too heavy. Few people would love it! You can search movies of the same genre. Few have received over 100 million box-office. Besides, it may not get approved.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Yu Qinghuan said flatly, “Whether its plot or its pace, it’s all very good. I got hooked. Anyway I’m only a newcomer. No one would judge me even if the box-office flops.”
“That’s right.” Yu Xin nodded. Any movie star with a little fame wouldn’t shoot such a movie with too much uncertainty. But it suited someone like Yu Qinghuan very much.
After he said that, he realized he got led by the nose again. But since Yu Qinghuan liked the script so much, he could only accept it reluctantly.
Never mind! He is only a C-list star. Just let him! When he becomes famous someday, he wouldn’t be able to do things as he likes like now.
Yu Qin then went to contact Zhao Rui. While on the side in the Grand Theatre, on seeing the rehearsal of the last scene finished, Yu Qinghuan stood up and went out. When he put on his mask and was about to go home, he suddenly caught sight of the south gate of Hua Univ..
Huo Qu had ever told him that his working site was in the technology building not far from the south gate of Hua Univ.. After thinking for a bit, Yu Qinghuan walked toward the technology building.
It was really a coincidence. The moment Yu Qinghuan walked to the sentry box, he saw the Huo Qu was saying goodbye to his colleagues.
“Professor Huo, bye bye.”
“Professor Huo, see you tomorrow.”
“Professor Huo, you forgot your phone. Here!”
...
In front of Huo Huo, the faces of all those prestigious people were written with all respect.
Huo Qu nodded to all those people one by one seriously. When he was about to hop into the car and go home, he got a glimpse of Yu Qinghuan not far away.
His eyes immediately shone, and he quickly ran towards him.
Other professors, “...”
They must have opened their eyes with the wrong way today! How is it possible that serious and bland professor Huo becomes like this? Is there any unknown matter on that young man? Can they have a study...
Apparently Huo Qu had no idea what his colleagues were thinking. He asked Qinghuan excitedly, “Qinghuan, what are you doing here? Are you here for me?”
“Hm,” Yu Qinghuan smiled, “I come to pick you up.”
“Then I’ll go with you!” said Huo Qu. Like afraid that Yu Qinghuan might go without him, he immediately ran to Yu Qinghuan’s side after informing his driver.
Yu Qing laughed in spite of himself. When he was about to go, Huo Qu grabbed his wrist.
He turned his head and asked, “what?”
“This...is for you.” Huo Qu twitched his lips shyly, then took out a pair of gloves from his bag. He explained while putting them on for Qinghuan unhandily.
Yu Qinghuan lowered his head and watched him put on the gloves for him slowly, feeling kind of complicated.
The first time he saw Huo Qu, Huo Qu even didn’t know how to cross the road, only stood in the middle of the road dully, and wouldn’t ask other’s help stubbornly. But now Huo Qu even knew how to care about others.
“Qinghuan, are they warm?” asked Huo Qu carefully. After a pause, he lowered his voice like he was muttering to himself, “I specially bought them for you. They should be warm, right?”
“Hm.” Yu Qinghuan moved his wholly wrapped hands a bit and then raised his head and said to Huo Qu, “They are quite warm.”
“That...that’s great!” Huo Qu felt his ears burning, and then showed that round little dimple on his left face.
