Chapter 51: Am I competing with my idol, Mo Yufei?
Translator: DragonRider
Rong Yi took a shower and lay in bed, wondering aimlessly in spite of himself.
Chen Keyao’s attitude towards Mo Yufei was really strange.
It was difficult for Rong Yi not to think of the rumors that he had heard from Zhou Li. In fact, even earlier, Rong Yi also fantasized and suspected that there might have been a relationship between the two.
It was difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with popular stars. However, as the original author of the novel, it was not impossible to know the leading actor.
Recalling seriously, Rong Yi realized that except for Mo Yufei, Chen Keyao only showed strong resentment against one person in front of him.
The ex who was said to have passed away.
When all the clues were put together, the story became especially logical and reasonable from every angle.
It was just that since Rong Yi recognized his feelings for Chen Keyao, he had been subconsciously unwilling to make such a hypothesis. That would be too awkward, even a little bit uncomfortable.
It was said that if one really let go of and didn’t care about another, there would be no fluctuations in the heart. If Mo Yufei was really Chen Keyao’s ex, then was he still thinking about him because he cared about him so much?
Therefore, if Rong Yi himself intended to court Chen Keyao, it almost meant he was competing with Mo Yufei?
How could he win? He was only bringing down his own destruction, destined to lose.
Well, hold on a second. When Chen Keyao originally thought Rong Yi was an Alpha, Chen Keyao actively courted him. At that time, why did Chen Keyao like him? Rong Yi thought about this several times and decided that Chen Keyao only liked his appearance.
Thinking of this, Rong Yi realized he and Mo Yufei were actually extremely similar in figure.
Was he himself only a substitute from the beginning?
Rong Yi held tightly the pillow in the darkness and his eyes widened. He was scared by his own assumptions and his mind was in great chaos.
Then was it because Chen Keyao was unwilling to let him get close to the ‘white moonlight’ of his heart that Cheng Keyao was angry just now?
Note: While moonlight here refers to things or someone that are beyond our reach but are always in our heart.
This really made Rong Yi miserable.
Why did they break up in the first place? Although Chen Keyao was such a nuisance, but he was actually a very cute and lovable nuisance. As for his idol, he was perfect. Perhaps, there was some misunderstanding?
Like that Omega actress who intentionally approached Mo Yufei?
For a moment, Rong Yi even wanted to send Chen Keyao the psychological analysis he was in complete agreement with, so that Chen Keyao would understand that at that time Mo Yufei must have been resistant and reluctant.
Then, would they break the ice, mend the broken mirror, reconcile and re-build the spectacularly perfect love?
...And then, he would withdraw with tears.
No.
Rong Yi sat up from the bed abruptly.
Even if they really broke up because of some misunderstanding, it was a thing of the past. Even if the competitor was his idol who he couldn’t compete with at all, he had already made an appointment with his net friend to confess. Therefore, whatever happened, he would try it.
Rong Yi picked up the phone, opened the browser, and started searching for the third series of Seeking the Dragon.
To better understand his competitor, he must first study closely the masterpiece which was said to have used Mo Yufei as the prototype of its protagonist.
.
About the worldview of Seeking the Dragon, there was one point that was new and novel. In that world, there was no second gender, only male and female. It was as if everyone was a Beta, but the difference was that only the marriage between male and female could breed a child. This seemingly simple setting had laid down the foundation for a completely different value system from the real society. Since the publication of the first series, various kinds of discussions about this setting had emerged in an endless stream. It had also caused a trend of “double gender setting”. For a time, numerous imitations appeared on market.Rong Yi thought though in terms of story plot the second series was not directly related to the first one, it still worked out under the same worldview. Therefore, in comparison, the second series was less creative.
Now when Rong Yi opened the third series, he discovered the author was actually playing some new tricks.
It was still the same worldview, but the protagonist was an Alpha who had travelled across from a different world.
It was natural that the protagonist’s ideas and views would collide with those of the aborigines of this world and the pheromones he was born to have as an Alpha would affect almost everyone.
Reading chapter after chapter, Rong Yi felt more and more strongly that there were good reasons behind those rumors.
The image of the male protagonist was so like Mo Yufei. Both the detailed description of his appearance and character matched with him so well.
Whether the other party was male or female, the protagonist would always unconsciously flirt with him or her with his words and actions. However, he always behaved and never went beyond the norms. Along the way, he not only harvested numerous maidens’ hearts, but also accidentally attracted many straight men. However, though he walked through the bush of flowers, he was not at all sullied by even a leaf. In his deep heart, what he really remembered was always the storyteller he first saw when arriving in this world.
The story was interesting, and the plot well-knit and wonderful. In addition, the plots of various supporting roles falling in love with the protagonist that appeared from time to time were written in such a natural and reasonable way that readers were greatly satisfied psychologically.
Rong Yi read on one page after another, and told himself many times to go to sleep immediately after he finished one more chapter. Unknowingly, it was already dawn.
Seeing that if he went on, he would not be able to participate in the meeting, he hurriedly forced himself to put down his mobile phone. Then he fell on the bed and into sleep with the speed of light.
.
In the dream, Rong Yi met the protagonist who wandered about the strange world freely and caused numerous ripples, but who also secretly concealed only one person deeply in his heart.
Expectedly, this protagonist had the face of Mo Yufei.
Rong Yi ran about, chasing after him. When finally intercepting him, Rong Yi hastily grabbed him and kept hurling questions at him.
“Did Chen Keyao like you? Do you still like him now? What was your relationship? Could you not have a relationship?”
The other party said, “Wake up! You are going to miss my meeting!”
Rong Yi woke up.
.
Insufficient sleep could indeed cause serious painful blows to both a person’s mind and body.
There would be no star-chaser who didn’t want to dress himself up when going to meet his idol. Although Rong Yi had met Mo Yufei several times in private, he still needed to show enough respect on the occasion of a fan meeting.
Rong Yi looked at his own dejected face in the mirror. He wanted to cry but no tears would come.
Even worse, he didn’t have time to mend his image, because it was stipulated that fans must enter the venue in advance.
.
On the way, Rong Yi took time to read several more chapters.
The plot was so torturing, because the protagonist was just about to find that storyteller he was always thinking about when a reminder popped out reminding that the page went wrong upon Rong Yi’s pressing on the next page passionately. The second book was over, while the third one was not available on the website.
Rong Yi almost vomited blood on the spot.
In fact, the line of love didn’t weigh much in the plot, but it was especially arresting. For the protagonist and the reader, marriage between two men was completely logical in today’s society. However, from the perspective of the worldview in the book, this was against nature and not to be tolerated.
It was only that they couldn’t give birth to children, which made them almost the same as a Dink family. Or, it was more similar to the marriage between two Alphas?
But in reality, it had long been accepted that two Alphas could register for marriage.
Before Rong Yi found the third part online, he had already arrived at the venue of the meeting.
When getting off the car, Rong Yi was shocked by all kinds of decorations on the square in front of the entrance. He had never participated in similar activities before, and he felt greatly interested and wanted to observe carefully. However, the admission time was about to end, so Rong Yi had to give up.
All the way to the ticket gate, people kept coming over and asking him “Ticket?”. After Rong Yi told them that he had one, those people immediately asked “Is the ticket on sale?”. Rong Yi was stunned beyond words.
After finally checking the ticket, registering personal information and receiving the on-site gift package, Rong Yi found that he could actually enter through the VIP channel with his ticket
After entering the venue and finding his seat, he was more surprised.
It was not so direct and perceptible when he first looked at the site plan. Now looking at the stage from this perspective, he realized that this position was simply exceptional and favorable. He wanted to find the position of Miss Zhang in the back row, only to see the sea of people at a glance.
Sitting in the seat, he took a photo and sent it to Miss Zhang. Pretty soon, he received her curse and abuse. Miss Zhang angrily sent a photo shot from her perspective. In front of her only people’s heads could be seen.
After comforting her with a few words, Rong Yi got a reply of “preventively pull you into my blacklist for today” and a red exclamation mark.
.
After the official start of the event, Rong Yi was quickly and thoroughly surrounded by happiness.
Although there had been some private and brief contacts before, it was a totally different feeling when Rong Yi looked up at the stage from his seat. Compared with the tension and restraint Rong Yi felt when meeting Mo Yufei in person, Rong Yi felt happier and more comfortable today under this circumstance. After all, it was impolite if one fixed his gaze on another in reality.
He sat so close to the stage that he could even see Mo Yufei’s fingernails clearly. With every passing second, he was exclaiming that every detail of his idol was surely and expectedly perfect.
Regretfully and pitifully, although Rong Yi was excited, there was always a voice in his heart that kept asking from time to time.
“Did Chen Keyao once like him too?”
It ruined Rong Yi’s enjoyment, but he couldn’t help it.
The activities arranged in the procedure were quite rich. After the warm-up, the host made an interview with Mo Yufei. At the end, several of the audience were randomly selected to ask questions on the spot. After that, Mo Yufei sang the new song he had just launched. Then there were a lot of interactions.
Rong Yi felt a bit cowardly. Every time one of the audience was to be selected, he shrank and never raised his hand.
He was afraid that if he went to the stage, it would be rather awkward when Mo Yufei discovered that the so-called “to attend an event” was this event. He was also afraid that the host would say something like “Wow, this is an Alpha.” He was not sure whether he should explain at that time.
When the event was about to end, the host said that he would select the last on from the audience who would have the opportunity to go on stage and interact solely with Mo Yufei himself. This lucky one would not only get an extra gift package, but also have a minute to confess his adoration on stage and ask Mo Yufei for a small reward.
In an instant, the crowd was excited.
As for the way to choose, the host asked Mo Yufei to decide for himself.
Rong Yi quietly shrank in the seat and looked at Mo Yufei on the stage who was tilting his head as if he was thinking seriously, and suddenly there was an ominous premonition in his heart.
Then he heard Mo Yufei say, “So... maybe I had better say a seat number at random?”
The host consented and showed Mo Yufei the arrangement of the seats. After Mo Yufei heard the host’s explanation, he walked from the far left to the far right of the stage and scanned the entire audience.
In fact, he should not be able to see the details under the stage because of the light. But the audience was still very enthusiastic, and many not only raised their hands, but also stood up and jumped.
“Then I will think about one randomly,” Mo Yufei said after returning to the center of the stage. “How about... A-2-15?”
Every time he said a word, Rong Yi was shocked in his heart.
When Mo Yufei finished the last word and the chasing light suddenly shot from above his head, Rong Yi was all stunned.
He stood up in great anxiety and tension and then suddenly made a strange discovery. Everyone on the venue should be watching him, while only he was still staring at Mo Yufei.
Therefore, maybe he alone noticed that Mo Yufei was even more surprised when he saw Rong Yi. Then, Mo Yufei seemed to frown slightly.
Author’s Note:
The pheromones he was born to have as an Alpha would affect almost everyone.? The legendary kingly temperament.
Therefore, Dreams of the Blue Mountains could be said to be the founder of BL works of that world.

Some setting was deleted from the body of the text, because after thinking about it, I decided I had better not include it to add up the number of words.
As had already been mentioned before (I doubted anyone remembered it), the two generations before Rong Yi were still adhering to the first gender. When it came to Rong Yi’s generation, people totally took no notice of it because the marriage system had gradually relaxed after several reforms. Therefore, people’s mentality also changed subtly.
In the past when the Marriage Law was amended, there was also controversy about whether or not AA could be married. Later, the Law completely relaxed because one loophole was discovered in the regulation. If two Alphas wanted to get married, they just needed to go to the hospital and ask for an inspection certificate, changing one of the A’s gender to B.
Why did I make these settings? Because I liked thinking idly.
