How to Tame a God and the Lucky Beasts-Chapter 174 - 175: Sworn Brotherhood
A total of six scenes, the first five were surprisingly smooth.
This brought joy to everyone present.
The last scene was a duo with Ruan Xingwen and Yu Xiaozhe.
This should be a piece of cake! ๐๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐๐.๐๐ผ๐
Everyone thought so.
But the reality was unexpectedly different.
"Yu Xiaozhe, hold him closer, heโs your brother, not your sidekick, why are you shy!"
"Ruan Xingwen, yes, Iโm talking to you!"
Upon hearing his name, Ruan Xingwen flinched and moved further away from Yu Xiaozhe.
"Still backing off! Whatโs wrong with you two? Two grown men, whatโs wrong with a little hug? Especially since youโre brothers!"
Liu Xiao was somewhat frantic.
The earlier scenes went smoothly, but as soon as Yu joined, things started to stall?
Standing nearby, Zhang He looked at the two in the center of the set and helplessly rubbed his forehead.
Looks like Old Yuโs moment has nearly arrived...
If there were no sparks, Ruan Xingwen wouldnโt be this shy.
Liu Xiao was still wrestling with the two of them.
Zhang He couldnโt watch anymore, walked beside Liu Xiao, and patted her on the shoulder,
"Hold on for a moment, let me talk to them."
Originally smooth short hair was now tousled into a mess from Liu Xiaoโs frustration.
There was no other way for Liu Xiao, so she took Zhang Heโs suggestion and announced loudly,
"Take a ten-minute break."
Everyone sighed with relief but didnโt leave, sneakily peeking at the two in the center of the stage.
Zhang He pulled the two outside the photo studio.
They walked to a relatively secluded corner.
"Phew, you two need to have a good chat. You know what I mean; donโt let personal feelings affect your work. Thatโs my only request."
After saying that, Zhang He left the space to the two and walked a bit further away to keep an eye on their surroundings.
"..."
"..."
Silent confrontation.
"Brother Ze..."
"Ah Ruan..."
They spoke at the same time.
"You first..."
"You first..."
Again, simultaneous speaking.
Yu Xiaozhe raised his hand and ruffled Ruan Xingwenโs hair, sighing lightly.
Ruan Xingwenโs heart tightened suddenly.
"I was too hasty."
Yu Xiaozhe said gently.
Seeing Ruan Xingwenโs bewildered eyes, Yu Xiaozhe explained softly:
"Ah Ruan, I like you, I think you might have guessed that."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Xingwenโs somewhat pale face blushed instantly, his makeup not even able to cover it.
He breathed a little faster, wanting to say something but not knowing what.
Yu Xiaozhe gently caressed his cheek,
"Donโt rush, Iโm not asking for an immediate response. Iโm just explaining why I acted so out of character."
Ruan Xingwen nodded with a blush.
"So, does Ah Ruan like me?"
"Heh~ Ah Ruan, not to hide from you, from the first time I saw you, I was very interested in you. This feeling came so strongly, it once left me at a loss."
"I said I wouldnโt push you, yet here I am going on. Alright, Ah Ruan, donโt overthink it, just let things flow naturally."
"Liking you is my business, donโt feel pressured; no matter what happens, our relationship stays the same."
"Okay, I admit my emotions were off in the shoot earlier, Iโll adjust well later, donโt worry. Iโll leave you to rest now."
After saying what he wanted, Yu Xiaozhe turned to leave.
In the moment Yu Xiaozhe turned, Ruan Xingwen thought about many things.
Yu Xiaozhe is really naughty.
Saying not to push, yet displaying his feelings so clearly.
Such a move, quite naughty!
He really didnโt expect Yu Xiaozhe to confess at this time.
Does this count as a confession?
Should be.
Though a bit different than expected, it didnโt stop his heart from racing and his breath from quickening.
Ruan Xingwen gently tugged Yu Xiaozheโs black leather jacket sleeve.
Yu Xiaozhe paused, turned back, and looked at Ruan Xingwen inquisitively.
Actually, Yu Xiaozhe was taking a bet, gambling on Ruan Xingwenโs feelings.
The fact was, he bet correctly; Ruan Xingwen held him back.
And said what he hoped to hear:
"Brother Ze, I think you donโt have to wait. I can give you the answer now."
Despite the burning heat on his face, Ruan Xingwenโs expression remained firm.
He cleared his throat and seriously said:
"Brother Ze, I like you too."
Upon hearing this, the pupils of Yu Xiaozheโs eyes shrank instantly.
He thought he could calmly face any response from Ruan Xingwen.
But this time, he miscalculated.
This kind of excitement was something heโd never experienced before in his life.
A heart beating way too fast, increasingly rapid breathing, limbs uncontrollable...
This feeling...
Felt freaking awesome!
Yu Xiaozhe couldnโt help but swear inside.
After Ruan Xingwen responded to his confession, he realized the person he held was in a daze...
But before he could speak, he was pulled into an embrace so warm it was scorching.
Yu Xiaozheโs high nose slightly brushed against Ruan Xingwenโs hair near his ear.
All he could hear beside his ear was Yu Xiaozheโs slightly breathy voice:
"Ah Ruan, Iโm so happy, really happy."
Knowing in the heart and hearing directly are indeed two different feelings.
"Um, Brother Ze, I have makeup on, donโt dirty your clothes."
Such a buzzkill statement only Ruan Xingwen could make.
Yu Xiaozhe slowly released Ruan Xingwen, his good mood unaffected by Ruan Xingwenโs anti-climactic remark.
"Ah Ruan, from now on youโre my boyfriend."
Ruan Xingwen nodded blushingly, actually quite thrilled.
From today, Ruan Xingwen also had a boyfriend!
And what a super handsome one! Super wealthy! And an award-winning actor!
Inside Ruan Xingwen, a little figure with a silly grin shattered his seemingly calm exterior completely.
Zhang He saw the entire lovey-dovey scene from afar.
"..."
No wonder emotions shouldnโt be bottled up, look, Yu Xiaozhe has turned into a beast, capturing his little bunny...
"Ahem, ahem ahem!"
A loud cough caught the attention of the two who were still tangled together.
Ruan Xingwen quickly withdrew his hand, looked at the sky, then the ground, and finally the wall, but not at the person beside him.
Clearly just now he wasnโt embarrassed, but realizing there were other people around shot his shyness level through the roof.
Yu Xiaozhe gave Zhang He a displeased look, held Ruan Xingwenโs hand naturally, and walked over to her.
On the way, Ruan Xingwen tried to pull his hand back, but Yu Xiaozhe held on tightly and didnโt succeed.
"You two donโt be too blatant."
Zhang He glanced around disapprovingly.
"Weโre not stealing or robbing, why should we hide to date?"
============================
Doesnโt it feel like Senโs story is progressing a lot faster?
It really is...
I was afraid my two sons wouldnโt get to date before being axed...
In short, the progress bar will move quickly from now on~~~
Love you all, Sen~~~
