A Contractual Marriage with the Best Leading Actor Chapter 74
Episode 3 (1)
“Just got off from work?” Bai Qi asked, looking him up and down.
“Yup.” Qiu Sichuan nodded.
“Which show was it? ‘Youth Camp’ or ‘Girl of Glory’?”
“How did you know?” A shocked expression appeared on Qiu Sichuan’s face for a moment, he paused, and then quickly followed up with the answer. “ ‘Youth Camp’.”
“You look very happy… And I guess that you’d be very happy to stand on stage again. Plus, there are only two ongoing survival talent shows these days.” Bai Qi randomly guessed.
Based on the popularity of “The Perfectly Wedded Pair”, it shouldn’t be difficult for Qiu Sichuan to appear on stage again
Qiu Sichuan smiled. “That’s right.” “Everything you’ve said is right!“
Qiu Sichuan was silent and reticent in front of the camera. Yet right now, he seemed to be pouring out all the words he’d kept in his heart for the past 8 to 10 years. “I was an off-site supporting guest for an episode, it was great. Maybe, I’ll get to join the next episode, but don’t think I’ll be doing the same thing…”
Qiu Sichuan had found enlightenment when he talked to Bai Qi back then.
Within a night, he realized that he was the biggest imbecile… to let himself dwell in the pain of self-hatred, to be the greatest sacrificer towards his love life, and to forget the purpose of being in a relationship… which was to make himself happy. Everything was completely upside down.
Under the bright light of the stage, he felt like he was on cloud nine when he looked down at the audience below, even if he was there to accompany an awful singer to sing a song on stage.
He was reborn.
And Bai Qi was the one who gave him this opportunity.
When he got off stage, he really wanted to meet Bai Qi, and to share all this with Bai Qi.
“My teammate’s song choice was so bad, he isn’t even able to sing at such a high key.”
“Before I left my house for the recording, I said my goodbyes to Xu Yi. Oh, we are best friends since childhood, it sounds amazing right? But, my biggest mistake was trying to turn friendship into romance. I submerged myself in my own emotions… and gave up everything for it. The more time passed, the more I found myself unable to walk out from it, even if I knew I was on the wrong path. That word, what is it called…”
He said everything at one go, some of his words were jumbled up.
He looked up at Bai Qi again.
Bai Qi nodded lightly and said, “Mn, sunk cost?”
Qiu Sichuan could tell that Bai Qi paid attention to what he had said.
“That’s right,” Qiu Sichuan replied.
“Bai Qi, I’d like to treat you to a meal,” he suddenly said, his voice hoarse.
The phone in Bai Qi's pocket suddenly vibrated violently. He took his phone and said, “Sorry.” “I think Xi-ge is waiting for me in the garage.”
Qiu Sichuan bit his lower lip, and after a few seconds, he said, “Just go ahead then.”
Bai Qi waved goodbye to him, turned around and walked away. After a bit, he paused, and turned towards Qiu Sichuan again. “Congratulations!”
Qiu Sichuan’s eyes went from being devastated to full of light again.
He tugged on his cap, lowered his head and smiled. Then, he stood up and walked towards the other direction. “Thank you.”
Bai Qi picked up a call. “Yes?”
He heard Xi Chengyun’s voice on the other end. “Where are you? I’ll come pick you up.”
“It's fine, it’s not convenient for you, there are too many people here,” Bai Qi said in a whisper.
“That’s exactly why… Someone knows the exact hall you’re taking your exams in and will be there at any minute. I’ll come over with my bodyguards. Wait for me.” Xi Chengyun spoke at stable pace, and he made his decision firmly.
Xi Chengyun hung up.
The traffic in the hallway seemed to increase.
“What?” someone asked in a low voice.
“Did you not see the news online? It’s all over the group.”
“What are they saying?”
“Xi Chengyun is here to be an exam companion!”
“Oh my god!”
Bai Qi pretended to not have heard all that. He stood behind the emergency exit which was at a corner. He took out his phone and was ready to send his location to Xi Chengyun.
He had his stationery in one hand while he typed with the other.
【I’m on the 4th floor, on the rig】
“Squeak.” Before he was done typing, the emergency exit door opened. A hand reached past the door and grabbed Bai Qi by the wrist —— Xi Chengyun.
He was dressed in a black coat today, but right now, he only had a grey sweater on him.
He must have left it in the car and didn’t have time to take it as he got out of the car.
“Where to?” Bai Qi asked.
“I think we should walk outside. The emergency stairs are too narrow, if people were to chase after us here, a stampede could easily happen.”
Bai Qi nodded and obediently followed behind him.
As expected, the people in the hallways took notice of them.
The crowds rushed towards them and were held back by the bodyguards.
Xi Chengyun held Bai Qi’s hand and led him downstairs.
Qiu Sichuan was walking behind them and he caught a glimpse of them from the back. They looked like a shimmer of light within a raging sea.
It was so blinding.
Xi Chengyun finally led Bai Qi into the car. When they settled in, they realized that Shang Guang was hugging Xi Chengyun’s coat, and looked like he was in utter despair, like a moldy potato.
He turned his head over and said, “Mr. Bai, do you now know the reason Xi-ge gave you 50 million? ...It really isn’t easy being together with a public figure. Out of a 100 thousand people, even if 90 thousand are sane, you’d still have 10 thousand who will not be in their right mind.”
Xi Chengyun was pulling his seatbelt on, and his hand paused right then.
“It’s fine,” Bai Qi said.
He could endure the weight of 50 million bucks.
“Klack.” Xi Chengyun buckled his seatbelt.
He asked Bai Qi, “Should we go home?”
“Let’s gooo,” Bai Qi said, without the slightest bit of fear on his face.
On the other end, Qiu Sichuan also got into his car.
This car was newly allocated to them by his company. His manager was sitting in front, and when he saw Qiu Sichuan sliding the door open, he couldn’t help but smile. “Why did you want to come here today? Are you here to wait on Xi-laoshi too?”
He didn’t get a response from Qiu Sichuan, and he didn’t care either.
