One Useless Rebirth

Dong Ni bit her lips and smiled awkwardly, explaining, “I just put some...” Actually, the lipstick wasn’t bright, but a bit more watery than the one used by the makeup artist. That was just a trick of girls, but she was busted when Di Qiuhe wiped that lip print.

She took a look at Di Qiuhe who went to his junior after wiping off the lip print. He seemed to speak something to the junior and his eyebrows frowned. Did she get that close to him that she even left some lipstick on him...

The first take failed and the second one started.

Di Qiuhe made a fake action to knock on the neck of Dong Ni, and put her down when she passed out. He then looked at her in a complex way for a few seconds and turned to stride away.

“Cut!”

Director Jiang felt a bit dizzy and he scolded, “Dong Ni! Will someone fall down like that when he got knocked out? I told you to not get so close to Qiuhe. You did quite well when the action choreographer was checking it with you, and how come it doesn’t work with Qiuhe now?”

He Bai frowned and he felt a bit sympathy for Qiuhe because Dong Ni was obviously trying to throw herself at him on purpose.

Di Qiuhe came close again when Dong Ni was getting scolded. He looked alright but complained in a poor tone, “Puppy, that woman was taking advantage of me.” Since he couldn’t get puppy away, then he would try to explain his unwillingness by all means! He would try to disassociate himself from Dong Ni, and he would never let puppy misunderstand him!

He Bai’s lip twitched and he couldn’t speak out a word to comfort him, although he knew that he was telling the truth. He felt that if he comforted him, he would fly to the moon.

“She left her lip print on me and rubbed herself on me.” Di Qiuhe said embarrassingly and took his hand to his chest as if he was a muscular bunny got bullied. “Puppy, it feels as if there are some worms where she touched, come and get them off me.”

He Bai finally couldn’t stand and got rid of his hand and said bitterly, “I think you enjoyed a lot. Stop making a scene!” He would never believe that the cunning Di Qiuhe would fail to nail a new flesh trying to seduce him during the shooting. He was obviously just having fun!

“You’ve wronged me, puppy.” Di Qiuhe got closer to him and explained in a careless way, “I just gave her a chance to show herself.” A rookie would never grow up without getting scolded.

He Bai pushed him away in disgust and said while playing with the lanyard on his camera, “Stop playing around and go finish the shooting. Dong Ni is the leading actress and she mostly plays her part with you. If she keeps acting like that then you will be the one who suffers.”

“Are you worried about me?” Di Qiuhe kept getting closer and smiled. It seemed that he was finally satisfied with his jealous behavior, “Puppy, just look how I nail her quickly.”

He Bai rolled his eyes and didn’t want to speak to him.

Then the third scene started.

Finally, Dong Ni didn’t make any drama and the story went to the hugging.

Realizing the sliding of Dong Ni’s hand on his back, Di Qiuhe was struck and looked at the direction of He Bai. He bent down and said in a low voice that could only be heard by the two of them, “Dong Ni, you can win your sponsor’s favor only because you look like his first love.”

Dong Ni’s body was suddenly struck.

Di Qiuhe took the time to make that action of knocking on her neck and then hugged her tightly as in the script. He let go of her and kept saying in a low voice, “So you are not as important as you imagine. What kind of result are you expecting for a wicked and deceitful pet?”

Dong Ni stared at him in surprise and fear, and she couldn’t help grabbing the clothes on his back as support.

“He boomed your popularity because it’s convenient for him to do money laundry.” Di Qiuhe slowly dragged off her hand and looked up, so that the camera could only catch his undemonstrative and soulful eyes. He said in a low voice, “Don’t mess around with me. He would worry if you keep tangling with me, so just stay cool. It’s so easy to find a substitute that looks like you, and I can always find a way to let your sponsor dump you.” Then he knocked on Dong Ni’s funny bone and she suddenly got struck and fell down unconsciously, “You...”

Di Qiuhe bent down and held her for a second, asking, “Close your eyes.”

Dong Ni closed her eyes by instinct and fell down to the ground.

Di Qiuhe drew back his hand and leaned his head to the direction of He Bai. He pretended to look at Dong Ni lying on the ground with sympathy and left after a few seconds.

“Cut! Pass!”

Director Jiang waved and he was surprised by their performance for this scene, “You caught exactly the feeling when Dong Ni was knocked over that she was so shocked yet hurt. Let’s give some credit to Qiuhe. Please keep going!”

The whole exhausted crew was so thrilled hearing his speech.

Di Qiuhe walked back from the other side of the alley, and he helped Dong Ni stand up when she was still on the ground. He then pretended to not have seen her pale and bewildered face. Later, he greeted Jiang Guanshan and went back to He Bai, jumping to him, rubbing and complaining, “Puppy, I’m dirty now. Dong Ni’s perfume was unpleasant.”

“Then why are you rubbing it on me.” He Bai finally came to himself from his last affectionate glance. Thinking about Dong Ni’s face when she was carried away by her assistant, he frowned and pushed him, asking, “What did you just say to Dong Ni? Why did she look so weird?”

Di Qiuhe smiled and blew on his ear, “I told her that I am into men instead of women. Can’t get hard facing women.”

He Bai was struck and pushed him away. He rubbed his goosebumps coming from nowhere and grunted, “Why don’t you just say you are the bottom and your little bird is just a decoration!” He was so reckless to say that! What if Dong Ni bought some zombie fans to attack him!

Di Qiuhe smiled and kept getting closer to him. He grabbed his hand and said ambiguously, “Then touch it and see if it’s a decoration.”

He Bai dropped his hand off with disgust and finally accepted that he just had no sense of shame.

“Fine, you have already seen my little bird, and you said it looks quite good.” Di Qiuhe couldn’t help getting conceited as he thought he was in Bai’s good graces that day.

Yet He Bai felt that he wanted to smash him.

Wang Boyi who just came here to give them the water halted all of a sudden. His poker face was about to break down. He must have heard something wrong.
