Chapter 48. Finale (1)

Yu Yu wore a custom-made suit. The silverish-gray suit looked really good on his straight and slender body. His bangs were parted to the side, showing off his good-looking face completely.

“Does it look good?”

“Yes.” Shu Shu nodded, then went up to give him a kiss.

Yu Yu was about to return the kiss when Shu Shu said, “It’s time to go.”

Yu Yu was stunned, “It’s still early.”

“You should go early, it’s a very important occasion. You can go earlier to talk to your teachers.”

Yu Yu thought that she made sense, so he nodded, “Alright, then I’ll go first. Wait for me to come back.”

He gave her a kiss, then headed out.

“Aaahh! This is crazy, Madam Ou Yang!!!” Ou Yang had acted in many excellent films before. She was the female goddess in the hearts of the older generation. She’d stopped acting for many years, yet she actually came out this year?

“Sui Jiaqian?! Aahhh! My dream lover.” She’d also stopped acting for many years.

The reporters continued to look at the direction of arrival expectantly. They silently anticipated another big shot who had vanished for a long time to reappear again.

Another car arrived from far away. The reporters’ lenses were directed to it as they rubbed their hands, trying their best to squeeze to the front, “Eh? Him?”

Yu Yu? Isn’t this a newbie?

Nevermind, they quickly took photos frenziedly, since they had nothing to lose for snapping photos in case another breaking news popped up.

……

Those who should have come had mostly arrived. The actors, producers, directors, and cultural department had all gone inside.

The reporters were about to put down the camera when they saw another woman going in.

She looked very pretty but her attire was quite casual, unlike the female celebrities that they’d seen.

“Who is this?”

Not a lot of reporters were snapping photos until this woman went in. Everyone was plunged into confusion, since she didn’t even have a manager or assistant with her.

Wang Zheng put down his camera and punched Xiao Zhu’s shoulders who was taking photos seriously beside him.

He nudged him lightly, “Hey, you know who she is?”

Xiao Zhu checked his photos and nodded, yup, he took it nicely.

“You really know?”

Xiao Zhu glanced at him like he was looking at an idiot, “I don’t know.”

“Then you’re taking the photos so seriously.”

“Tell me, whose photo you haven’t taken yet today?”

“Who?”

“There are three screenwriters, you took photos of two.”

Wang Zheng blinked, his face looking blank when he suddenly jumped up, “F*ck, it was Xiu Shu Da Da just now?!”

The reporters who were resting their legs around the place suddenly shuddered as their eyes widened. Only the few reporters who have taken the photos held their cameras tightly, laughing inside.

When Shu Shu went in, a lot of people had already arrived. The waiter led her inside a lavishly decorated hall with people conversing in low voices. This wasn’t considered a formal ball, usually the leaders would have their meeting in a meeting room setting, but today it was mostly people of the same industry, and it was also a seminar, so everyone didn’t need to be too formal.

Shu Shu took a quick glimpse. Yu Yu was chatting merrily with his teachers and didn’t notice her. With light footsteps, she headed straight to the other two screenwriters. She knew both of them.

“Teacher Zhang, Teacher Liu.”

“Shu Shu is here, come, sit down.” Teacher Zhang was an experienced screenwriter. Many dramas with record-breaking ratings and views were born in his hands. In the last few years, he switched to making movies and also performed beautifully with it.

Teacher Liu was more stern. This person was legendary and had written many excellent scripts. Many problems in Shu Shu’s war novel were edited by him. He was rich in knowledge and was strict with details. He was a dedicated, helpful senior who was rare to have.

The three of them talked together. The directors and the cultural department were also talking, and they waved their hands at them from a distance.

The three of them went over. The person-in-charge then asked them, “Do the three of you have anything to say later?”

“I don’t have much to say, Shu Shu, do you want to say anything? You are the original author.”

Shu Shu abruptly shook her head. She had nothing much to say, the people in this place were all capable people, she wasn’t adept with acting and she was also satisfied with the script that they’d modified.

When it was almost time, the person-in-charge was about to go up to speak. Some official reporters had also come in. Shu Shu instinctively looked for a corner to hide, but then her other two teachers dragged her to sit in the second row.

Yu Yu blinked, Shu Shu? When he blinked again, he lost her.

“What’s wrong?” Lao Deng asked him.

Yu Yu patted his face and answered with a smile, “Nothing, Teacher Deng.”

He must have seen wrongly, why would that book be here, sigh, he must have missed her too much…

The host started speaking, he thanked everyone who had arrived at the scene. The reporters snapped photos like mad at the back while the host introduced one by one, “Firstly, thank you to the cultural department…”

“Thank you to the director…”

“Thank you to the screenwriters, Teacher Liu Jiayong, Teacher Zhang Yangzheng and also the screenwriter and original author Xiu Shu Da Da.”

Shu Shu stood up with the other two teachers, nodding her head at the reporters at the back.

Her face was a little stiff as she grasped her clothes. She took a glance at Yu Yu’s direction.

When he heard Xiu Shu’s name, Yu Yu lifted his head. Finally, he was going to see his archenemy!

He looked towards the front row and met Shu Shu’s eyes…

Both their eyes met for two seconds. Shu Shu sat down but Yu Yu was still sitting frozen on his seat, fixing his deadly gaze at the back of her head. That top of the head that he’d nuzzled for so many times, that hair that he’d caressed gently and loved dearly…

Next, it was the person-in-charge and the leader’s turn to speak. They concluded it with three points, to be fast, accurate, and to combine the spirit of patriotism that was trending now.

They thanked them again and hoped that they could work hard to finish the shooting of this major film in time before the National Day.

Then it was the director’s turn to speak. He spoke about some important stuff to take note of and let everyone discuss and hang out together, so they could get used to each other beforehand.

Each of them left their seats. Some waiters served alcohol and water, as everyone gathered into small groups to chat.

Shu Shu stood up to walk in the direction of Yu Yu. He also stood up and headed to the washroom.

Yu Yu faced the mirror, still feeling stunned, he washed his face, then walked outside. He paused at the door, Shu Shu…

This was the first time he didn’t pounce towards Shu Shu when he saw her. He walked past her instead with an emotionless expression.

This was also the first time Shu Shu realized that a calm face was more frightening than anger.

Seeing him walk past her, Shu Shu followed him to walk beside him, then grabbed his hand lightly.

Yu Yu struggled slightly but Shu Shu held him tightly.

She used her small thumb to scratch the palm of his hand lightly. Yu Yu stood upright to feel that small hand that was playing its tricks, and also her face that was closing in, trying to please…

Was it when you like someone, you would turn into someone with no principle? She didn’t even say a single apology yet but he was the one surrendering first…

He lifted up the hand that was holding her, and with a powerful force, Shu Shu felt herself being pushed against the wall of the corridor, then her lips felt something soft.

The familiar taste came washing over her. Her heart was thumping wildly as her mouth was forced to split apart. Her tongue had been hooked up, letting him entangle it.

When they separated, a strand of silver line remained at the corner of Shu Shu’s mouth. Yu Yu’s hand that was holding her face wiped it off naturally.

Shu Shu looked into his eyes, calming down her heartbeat that couldn’t slow down.

Then a sound came from the side. Both of them turned towards it.

“Cough cough, both of you continue.” Dou Guohui smiled, then retreated. Both of them hadn’t come back to their senses yet when his head popped out again.

“Da Yu, fighting!”

Yu Yu, Shu Shu: “……”

……

When they were having their meeting inside, the reporters who were waiting at the entrance had sent each of their photos back, since news was best reported fresh.

Wang Zheng nudged Xiao Zhu and gave him a smile, trying to please, “Erm, can you send me a photo of Xiu Shu Da Da…”

Xiao Zhu put his computer on his knees and continued doing his own work, “Snap the photo yourself.”

Wang Zheng nudged again, “Give me one, please~”

Xiao Zhu didn’t care. He sent the photo back to his news agency. Then the people in his agency would start to write the news and post.

On weibo, people with fast hands had already posted on it. But was it really Xiu Shu Da Da, they still needed the photos from official reporters.

But this didn’t affect the clamor on the internet. Xiu Shu Da Da was a gorgeous beauty? Just this title was enough to place it on weibo top searches right now.

Wang Zheng pouted. Forget about it, if you’re not giving it to me, I’ll just snap the photo myself later.

When the meeting ended.

The leaders and big shots came out one by one. The reporters’ hands were turning numb from pressing. Wang Zheng tried to notice Xiu Shu as he took photos.

Many had left and Xiu Shu had also come out. She came out while chatting with some senior actors and screenwriters. Wang Dong directed his camera towards her, but he did not press the shutter immediately. He was shocked!

She was holding Yu Yu’s hand!

Wang Zheng couldn’t believe it and rubbed his eyes. He looked towards Xiao Zhu beside him, his eyes also widened with a face of astonishment.

Coming back to their senses, it was a storm of shutter sounds. All the reporters had gone crazy!

Yu Yu and Xiu Shu were holding hands!

Yu Yu’s girlfriend was Du Da!

Did they break up or was he two-timing?!

Weibo photos were uploaded one by one. It went up to the headlines in just ten minutes, making the weibo server explode from the traffic.

The technician: Don’t scold us anymore, I’m not at fault!

Yu Yu’s manager still hadn’t recovered his senses yet, Yu Yu? Xiu Shu? They held hands? Are you kidding me? A wife slave is two-timing? When he opened the photo of the headline and looked at it, he was stunned for a long time before he laughed out loud like mad.

When an artist under your management exposed their love affair while they were still climbing up their career, it was frightening, but what if this person was weibo’s big VIP? What if this person’s other identity was a big author and screenwriter?

That was the best thing that could happen!

Then the official site posted the photos, proving that the woman who held Yu Yu’s hand was Xiu Shu.

Yu Yu’s weibo.

Life: F*ck you, a*shole!

Small fish Big fish: 55555 I can’t believe you’re this kind of person, please tell the truth

I love Du Da: F*ck, then how about my Du Da?! I was giving you my blessings at first, but in the end…

Big river: To be doing this in public, they must have broken up?

Come and go: A*shole, pui!

……

Xiu Shu’s weibo.

Age quiet and nice: wuwuwu, I can’t believe this

One five one: Da Da, why did you like Yu Yu, please tell the truth.

agn:I believe in Da Da, Da Da has such positive vibes, at least she can’t be the homewrecker.

Missing: Maybe Yu Yu and Du Da had broken up?

666: Please tell the truth!

……

Meanwhile, Poisonous Chicken Soup weibo.

Old Age Old Times: Damn, Du Da, tell me, you’ve broken up or he cheated on you, my keyboard is ready.

Small rose: Hahahahahaha, Du Da returns to our noble singles group.

Big river: Hug Du Da.

I love Du Da: It’s okay, Du Da you still have us.

Year and age: Hug~ Come back to our noble singles group.

……

The manager had made countless phone calls to Yu Yu, asking them to quickly settle it. It wouldn’t be good if it went out of control.

Yu Yu looked at Shu Shu. She smiled. Taking out her phone, she leaned her head towards him and took a selfie of both their faces, posting it in Poisonous Chicken Soup weibo.

[Poisonous Chicken Soup: I’m still not going back to the noble singles group, I’ll put in effort to feed dog food, hahahahaha.]

There was silence on the internet at first, then it went up to the bigger social media and even those who were just watching the show were dumbfounded.

Xiu Shu = Du Da? Excuse me?

The internet exploded with a bang, while on the other hand, Shu Shu kept her phone back and looked at Yu Yu with a slightly red face.

Yu Yu looked back at her, she was drunk.

She was truly bad at handling alcohol. They drank a little with the few seniors today, which was why they ended up holding hands while leaving and exposed themselves on weibo.

As for Yu Yu, he was extremely happy about it.

When both of them went back, it was already quite dark. The driver left after he dropped them off, so Yu Yu hugged her upstairs.

After much difficulty, he pushed her inside to take a shower. But when this woman came out, she came pouncing at him…

As they say, alcohol could make you braver.
