Chapter 9: Date! Date!

Cheng Zhengyan, in order to teach him how to date, unexpectedly put aside the work of the cast to take a day off. Xiang Ke once again confirmed that the other party is a good person.

Thinking that the two of them can go out together for a whole day on the next day, Xiang Ke’s excitement in his heart can’t be suppressed. Even when he went on a date with his ex-girlfriends, he was rarely exhilarated like this.

After taking a bath, he rolled around the bed naked. He buried his face in the covers and laughed, slapping the bed with his palms and arms like a sea lion, and pressed his head against the bedside table with a pillow. He kicked his legs hard on the quilt, scraping like a puppy, and the quilt was rustled by his feet.

The quilt smells good too!

It was only after a while that he felt something wrong and looked up.
The worried mother who came to the room to deliver his good night's milk, Wang Pang, looked down at his own baby showing his bare bottom and doing all kinds of strange things in shock: "......!!!"

Xiang Ke: "......"

He blushed and moved, wrapping himself in a quilt like a baby silkworm.

Wang Pang: ".................."

What can be done about this ah!

After being carried by the agent and covered by pajamas, Xiang Ke shrunk in the quilt and handed out the milk bottle that was drunk. His eyes brightly looking out and his head was touched: “Go to bed early, okay!”

Xiang Ke nodded obediently, and jumped up the moment when the door locks——

Get up and pack up, la!!!

****

Cheng Zhengyan, who returned to his room, sat quietly on the sofa and unexpectedly offered an invitation for a whole day. His eyes were empty, contemplating on the unprecedented rashness he had——almost as if his reason had been emptied.

Yet, while reflecting on this, he can’t help but raise his head and turn his gaze in the direction of the bathroom……

****

All three suitcases were opened and spread on the floor. Xiang Ke dug out so-and-so luxury brand’s Spring ‘18 men’s briefcase——throw it away, too small!!

XX big brand fashion show’s versions——too small!

Xiang Ke crouched on the ground and writhed furiously: Must find a larger bag or at least it has to be a backpack!

****

Cheng Zhengyan has slowly stood up and walked to the bathroom door, his eyes falling deeply on the tiny charging rack at the sink——uh……

Durex 50 yuan.

Next to that is Okamoto Ultra-thin 001*……this is very famous, but it’s more expensive, two hundred……

*Condom brand.....

Um……

*****

Potato chips, potato chips!

Xiang Ke dug out the potato chips sandwiched in the scarf bag. Aiya, it still smells like a big wave of roasted chicken wings! I want to open and eat it now!

Ah, right! And milk candy!

Xiang Ke carried his backpack in front of him like a mother koala and opened his mouth wide. Tossing the most spacious compartment with all his might: Have to stuff it a little harder!

*****

Cheng Zhengyan looked at himself calmly in the mirror, fighting fiercely with his brain. After a long time, he held out his sinful right hand towards the Okamoto’s small box.

*****

Finally, after packing up food for tomorrow, Xiang Ke contentedly laid back on the bed. He huddled in the quilt and solemnly put the bulging school bag on his pillow as if he could sleep more soundly.

****

Cheng Zhengyan’s room was still lit with a dim reading light at 12:30. He had changed his pajamas and bathed twice. At this time, he was sitting on the head of the bed with a blow-dry to dry his hair. He could finally read the instruction manual of the bottle of the body lubricant in a relatively calm mood.

****

Generally speaking, both of them should be looking forward to it……right?

**********

The next day, Xiang Ke, who had slept well, got up full of energy and did push-ups spiritedly before Wang Pang arrived which made Mother Wang Pang, who came to call early, pleased.

Wang Pang helped Xiang Ke to find clothes he needed to wear today, and asked casually while cleaning the bed, “You’re so happy today?”

Xiang Ke smiled and said, “Yes!”

Cheng Zhengyan, who had been having strange dreams and did not sleep well all night, sat in bed and let the cold air out to scare his assistant because he woke up half an hour early.

Assistant whose legs trembled in fright: “Cheng…..Brother Cheng, did not sleep well last night?

Cheng Zhengyan, who got out of the bed with a fit of anger, squinted his eyes coldly, lifted the quilt, and got up.

These days, it’s probably officially warming up. The weather is so good that even the top of the withered branches in Film and Television City is showing a bright green color. Xiang Ke stretched out in the cold wind, raising his hand to say hello to everyone passing by. He suddenly caught a little figure in his sight and quickly turned his head to look.

He smiled foolishly, his eyes were full of bright starlight. “Cheng Zhengyan!”

Cheng Zhengyan’s unhurried footsteps could not help but pause for two seconds, his calm face could not help but show a little smile. He went closer and patted Xiang Ke’s fluffy head. “Too loud, idiot.”

His tone was fierce as if the person that morning who carefully used shaving cream twice before willing to go out is not himself.

He was full of pleasant and refreshing scent that made people happy. Xiang Ke looked up at him but he suddenly did not know why he felt a little shy, even his eyes jumped a lot whenever they looked at each other.
The two stood stupidly looking at each other for a while. Cheng Zhengyan came to his senses first and gave Xiang Ke a scarf that had become a little loose because of stretching. “Where is Fatty Wang?”

“Went to buy an omelet with six eggs for me.” Xiang Ke replied in a low voice and asked, “Where is your assistant?”

Cheng Zhengyan snorted. “Gave him a vacation.”

Xiang Ke smiled with his head down. After a while, he raised his face a bit worried, “Are you sure not to bring them along?”

Cheng Zhengyan pushed his forehead with his finger, and shook his head. “Silly, how can you go out on a date with an agent!”

When the words landed, the two were silent again. They looked at each other; a wonderful emotion gradually sprang up from the silence.

Xiang Ke grabbed his finger that was pointed at himself just now, his face slowly reddened. “……then let’s…..go?”

"Ahem."

Cheng Zhengyan’s heart was beating rapidly, coughing before finding his voice. On one hand, his expression looked as usual, and pulled out a set of car keys from his coat’s pocket.

The other hand, somewhat clumsily but firmly opened, and smoothly wrapped around Xiang Ke’s hand that was grasping his fingers.

*******

As usual, Wang Pang, who bought an omelet with six eggs, had already entered into work-mode when he arrived at the studio. After looking around, he did not find the figure of Xiang Ke, Wang Pang couldn’t help but grab a person and asked, “Excuse me, have you seen Xiang Ke?”

“No.” The other party touched the back of his head blankly. “Didn’t Director Xu say that Xiang Ke asked for a day off today? Oh, and Cheng Zhengyan also asked for a leave so today’s filming changed to filming Ms. Gao’s content……”

Asked for leave?

Why didn’t I know?!

A bad premonition gradually emerged in Wang Pang’s heart. He let go of the person and hurriedly pulled out his phone to dial the number and the call quickly got through. “Pang Pang……”

“You asked for leave?!” Wang Pang asked with a frown.

Xiang Ke whispered, “En, came out to have fun……”

It turned out to be going out to have fun. Wang Pang was relieved and said with a sullen look, “Next time, remember let me know. I was really scared to death just now!”

Xiang Ke: "I’m sorry."

“En, be obedient.” It’s necessary to give the child some freedom once in a while. Therefore, Wang Pang softened his tone, “Also, are you with Cheng Zhengyan?”

Xiang Ke answered honestly, "Mm."

Sure enough, it’s that guy. Wang Pang is a bit upset. He is now a little wary of Cheng Zhengyan because of some previous scenes, but that is only speculation after all. Most of the actors who make homosexual drama are iron straight which is a secret law in the circle. Moreover, despite the suspicion of taking advantage, Cheng Zhengyan is considered a worthy person in all aspects, and it’s not a bad thing for Xiang Ke to increase contact with him. He measured it from a professional point of view, and his mood gradually returned. “Okay, then come back early and pay attention to safety oh.”

After receiving Xiang Ke’s affirmative reply, he nodded goodbye to the crew and gently pressed his face on the phone, asking casually, “By the way, what are you sneaking out for to have fun?”

(this translation is only here on ztranslations.blogspot.com otherwise, stolen)

“Ah?” Xiang Ke also did not know but was stunned by the questions. He looked up at Cheng Zhengyan and the latter just retracted his eyes from the rearview mirror and he just happened to meet his clear gaze. He couldn’t help but feel his heart softened, revealing an affectionate smile. “You can’t play with your phone all the time on a date.”

“Oh!” Xiang Ke immediately put away the phone and hung up before thinking of Wang Pang’s question, he answered briefly, “I don’t know. Bye, Pang Pang!”

Then turn off your phone and happily look forward to it.

"......................................................"

The omelet has fallen to the ground but Wang Pang was unaware of it. He clenched his phone and stood silently in the same place, facing the cold north wind of early spring.* His own child’s adorable farewell and the other deep and low voice like a ravenous wolf’s magic was still in his ears.

*迎着初春寒冷的北风: facing against the cold north wind means not fearing the cold; early spring means early love. I don’t think I need to put an explanation, but here. In case I phrased/translated it wrongly.

Chang! Zheng! Yan!

Wang Pang’s ears are steaming with anger!

******

Xiang Ke shook his phone, and flaunt his obedient look. “It’s turned off~”

“Ah.” Cheng Zhengyan tried to rein in the smile on his face that was about to flood but it obviously had little effect. He could not help but raise his hand and pinch his face, like Wang Pang’s usual child-like* praising. “Good boy.”

*小儿科: a child's play; (slang). I was having a hard time phrasing this lol.

The two looked at each other foolishly for a while and Xiang Ke asked in a low voice, “Pang Pang asked where we’re going today. Where are we going ah?”

Cheng Zhengyan raised his head when he heard the words, his eyes looked through the car’s front windshield to the spire of a small house in the distance——the largest luxury hotel in City A.

He withdrew his gaze and took a few deep breaths, “……well, where do you want to go?”

If Guo Jiaqi, Lin Mi, or any of Xiang Ke’s ex-girlfriends were also present, they would have done everything in their power to stop Cheng Zhengyan from asking this question. However, Cheng Zhengyan, who knew nothing about Xiang Ke’s dating style, asked.

“Me? Hmm…..” Xiang Ke once again deepened his pleasing smile, “We haven’t had breakfast yet. Let’s go to XX cake shop first!”

Cheng Zhengyan, who had a full ten pieces of Okamoto 001 in his trouser pocket, did not notice the looming danger at this moment.

Ex-girlfriends 【staring at the scale】: Xiang Ke, from a certain point of view, is really a very dangerous person!
