Chapter 064 – This miserable rich second generation – “Why not do it yourself?” (05/10)
After moving Gu Liu’s things into the room, Liu Ming and Chen Yongquan left the villa.
Gu Liu refused Xie Chenyang’s help and organized his personal items in his room by himself. The housekeeper auntie was cooking in the kitchen.
Xie Chenyang sat on a bench in the garden, smoking restlessly. [Dad, do you think I’ll get beaten to death if I try bed-hopping tonight?]
You Huang: “…You told him you wouldn’t sleep with him.”
Xie Chenyang leaned back with his legs crossed: [He’s such a jerk. He’s my lover, but he won’t let me touch him and makes me chase him in every world.]
Gu Liu finished unpacking his luggage and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He immediately noticed Xie Chenyang sitting below.
He didn’t quite understand this young master. Although he had only been in the entertainment world for a year, he had heard many stories like this.
If one were to say that Xie Chenyang was sincere towards him, even if the contract Gu Liu signed with him was favorable to him, it was just a contract in essence to keep him around.
To say that he was insincere, Gu Liu couldn’t see a trace of falsehood in the deep passion in his eyes.
He prided himself on his acting talent, and Xie Chenyang was a master at it.
Xie Chenyang rose and left the garden. Not long after, there was a knock on Gu Liu’s door.
Gu Liu opened it and was met with Xie Chenyang’s warm smile.
“Auntie finished cooking. Shall we go downstairs to eat?”
Gu Liu had to give his sponsor some face. He nodded and went downstairs with him.
Xie Chenyang unhesitatingly picked a lot of food for him.
Gu Liu glanced at it and saw that none of it was what he remembered liking. But this was food that his benefactor had picked for him personally.
He wasn’t picky, so he ate silently.
After eating, he was surprised to find that he liked every dish that Xie Chenyang had picked for him. He liked them even more than he remembered.
Gu Liu: “…Auntie’s cooking is really delicious.”
It must be because Auntie cooked well, so every dish tasted good to him. It was just a coincidence.
Xie Chenyang raised his eyebrows and picked some celery with his chopsticks for him. Gu Liu ate it without thinking, then frowned.
Xie Chenyang laughed and picked up an empty plate and held it to his mouth. Gu Liu glanced at him, but still couldn’t help spitting out the celery.
Xie Chenyang said triumphantly, “I knew you didn’t like it.”
He hadn’t changed after all.
Gu Liu buried his head in his food, somewhat distracted. He had never eaten celery before, so he didn’t know that he didn’t like it.
How did Xie Chenyang know?
After they finished eating, it was already dark outside. The housekeeper cleared the table, and Gu Liu went upstairs to his room.
Xie Chenyang quietly asked for the 18th time: [Is he asleep?]
You Huang answered in a whisper, “He’s asleep.”
Xie Chenyang raised his eyebrows and happily left the room.
You Huang said, “Why are you in such a hurry? He’s already right here.”
[I want to sleep with him! I’ll sneak back to my room before dawn.]
You Huang: “…” That’s unnecessary.
Xie Chenyang quietly sneaked into Gu Liu’s room and tiptoed into the bed. He nervously hugged Gu Liu, his heart pounding.
[This is so exciting. When he wakes up, he’s definitely going to kick me out of bed.]
You Huang: “…” Actually, he was already awake.
Never mind, I’ll just keep it to myself.
Gu Liu was a light sleeper and woke up as soon as someone crawled into his bed. But he was a good actor, so he didn’t even change his breathing. He knew that this person was talking nonsense.
During the day, he said he wouldn’t climb into his bed, but at night, he secretly climbed in anyway.
Xie Chenyang’s heart was beating wildly. He was climbing into the bed of the man he loved, but he felt like a thief, which was very exciting.
Gu Liu was a good actor, so Xie Chenyang didn’t notice that the person in his arms had already woken up.
He gently stroked Gu Liu’s back and said, “You’re such a scumbag.”
Gu Liu was about to get angry. Excuse me?
Who?
Who’s a scumbag?
Can you let go of me first before you say that?
“But I still love you.” Xie Chenyang hugged Gu Liu face-to-face, pressed his forehead against his, and said softly, “Even though you don’t remember me and you’re acting like a scumbag, I forgive you.”
You Huang: “…” What you just said sounded like he had forgotten him on purpose.
Gu Liu’s heart trembled. He began to recall his memories from childhood.
Could it be that he had provoked this young master at some point?
Xie Chenyang gently touched Gu Liu’s lips. “Don’t make me wait too long.”
He couldn’t guarantee how long he could hold back.
Why did he have to sneak around to hug his lover?
Xie Chenyang tightened his arms, closed his eyes, and slowly fell asleep. Gu Liu’s body stiffened.
The warm sensation on his lips still lingered.
But in his memory, there was no memory of Xie Chenyang.
Could it be that he had unconsciously flirted with this young master without knowing it, causing him to misunderstand?
Gu Liu thought he wouldn’t be able to sleep, but he slept soundly. When he woke up, Xie Chenyang was already gone.
Gu Liu washed up, changed his clothes, and went downstairs.
Xie Chenyang was sitting at the dining table, smiling at him. “Did you sleep well last night? Breakfast is ready, come and eat.”
It was confirmed that he was a good actor.
He acted as if nothing had happened.
Gu Liu was eating breakfast when he suddenly asked, “Have we met before?”
“Do you remember?” Xie Chenyang looked surprised.
Gu Liu: “…” Have they really met before? He tentatively asked, “Do you remember where we first met?”
“Of course…”
You Huang: “Wake up, he’s tricking you! Besides, once you reveal your true identity and my existence, we’ll be kicked out of this world.”
[He’s tricking me?]
You Huang: “In this world, you can only survive as Jiang Xincheng. You can’t let anyone find out that you’re not him, including your lover.“
Gu Liu was still waiting for Xie Chenyang to answer.
Xie Chenyang felt wronged: [He’s so scheming!]
You Huang: “If you had no memory and a person you just met said they loved you and wanted to support you, you’d probably kick them to death.“
Xie Chenyang said softly, “The first time we met, it was raining heavily, and you gave me an umbrella.”
Gu Liu was startled. He actually did something like that. Back in school, he had given umbrellas to countless boys and girls.
Gu Liu found it both amusing and exasperating. A young master raised in a wealthy family’s greenhouse was so easily moved? Of course, not all wealthy young masters were like that.
But the one in front of him had remembered him and developed feelings for him over such a small thing.
Wasn’t this contract just a way to save face?
He was so naive and cute.
Seeing that Gu Liu didn’t say anything, Xie Chenyang tugged at his tie and stood up. “Let’s go to the company and pick out a script.”

Gu Liu sat in the passenger seat.
He tilted his head slightly and stared at Xie Chenyang’s delicate profile and warm eyes. His heart softened a little.
—–
Fu Yun Entertainment. Screenwriting Department.
Xie Chenyang had someone bring out the selected scripts for Gu Liu to choose from. Gu Liu looked through them one by one. These scripts were all very interesting.
Xie Chenyang picked one out and handed it to him. “Take a look at this one.”
“The Killer and the Divine Doctor?” Gu Liu took the script from his hand and started reading the synopsis.
Two male leads, Wuxia themed.
One was once a feared assassin who struck fear into the hearts of the underworld, but later became a divine doctor who saved lives.
The other was a rookie assassin with a blood feud, who was deceived, and in the end, was betrayed and joined the doctor.
“Hmm, the doctor has a split personality? One assassin personality and one doctor personality…”
The story was ordinary and a bit melodramatic.
But if it’s done well…
Gu Liu: “Has this been approved?”
Xie Chenyang: “If you choose it, it can be approved immediately.”
Gu Liu paused: “Actually, you don’t have to be like this to me…”
“Don’t say so much.” Xie Chenyang leaned closer to him. “Just say it. Do you want to shoot it?”
Gu Liu lowered his eyes slightly. “I do.”
“Then let’s shoot it.”
The cast and crew of “The Killer and the Divine Doctor” were quickly assembled.
The script was written by the company’s screenwriter, a man surnamed Yao. Xie Chenyang personally contacted a director who was good at shooting martial arts dramas, screened the actors at the company, and arranged for those who were suitable and available to be cast.
After all, he didn’t want to let talent go to waste.
Gu Liu played Zhen Wu, but as for the rookie assassin, Gui Ji, Xie Chenyang wasn’t satisfied with any of the actors who came in for the audition.
You Huang: “Why don’t you do it yourself?”
Xie Chenyang smiled. [That’s not very appropriate, is it?]
You Huang was speechless. “Can’t you see that this is a subtle romantic relationship? Zhen Wu and Gui Ji become a couple, and they kill anyone who gets in their way, right?”
Xie Chenyang coughed lightly. [I’m afraid I won’t be able to act well, and Gu Liu will cry.]
[If I can’t do it, can my dad do it?]
Xie Chenyang grinned and went to find the director.
The director: “…”
—–
Xie Chenyang quietly climbed back into Gu Liu’s bed again.
Gu Liu knew very well that he’d been climbing out of the window every morning, but he never exposed him.
Because the most he would do was hug or kiss him.
But tonight, when Xie Chenyang’s hand reached inside his clothes, he grabbed his hand. “Brother Chen, stop.”
Xie Chenyang gently caressed his waist. “I just saw a bug crawl into your body/ I want to help you find it.”
Gu Liu laughed. “Did you find it?”
“No, I’ll look again…”
“Stop fooling around, let go.”
Xie Chenyang’s hand on his waist lifted slightly, pressing against his body. As their breaths mingled, Xie Chenyang’s voice was slightly hoarse. “I don’t want to keep you anymore. I don’t want to be your sponsor. I want to be your husband. Is that okay?”
It was like he was acting spoiled.
For some reason, the longer Gu Liu spent with him, the easier it was for Gu Liu to soften his heart and indulge him.
That was why Xie Chenyang repeatedly climbed into his bed, and Gu Liu just pretended not to know.
“Gu Liu, I want to kiss you. Gu Liu, is that okay?”
“Please stop talking.”
“Okay.” He didn’t ask again, but he did it.
When Xie Chenyang turned around and kissed him, Gu Liu was silent for a moment, sensing his cautious approach. He then closed his eyes, wrapped his arms around Xie Chenyang’s neck, and began to respond.
Xie Chenyang’s eyes flashed with ecstasy. [I really held back too much this time! He finally responded to me, woo woo woo! Dad, you go play by yourself.]
Gu Liu: “We start shooting tomorrow, don’t be too rough.”
—-
A City Film and Television City. The set of “The Killer Doctor.”
“It’s almost time, aren’t the two leads here yet?”
“I’m rushing them. They said there’s traffic.”
“They’re here! Makeup artist, get ready…”
Gu Liu closed his eyes with a cold expression and let the makeup artist apply his makeup.
Xie Chenyang also sat next to him and had makeup applied, with a faint tooth mark on his neck.
The makeup artist remained expressionless and completely covered the mark on his neck with concealer.
“Gu Liu…”
“I advise you to shut up.”
