Gu Jiuci slept while hugging Tang Ziyou, but he was restless all night. It was only when he woke up the next morning that he managed to get better.
The dream was so real, so real and terrible that Gu Jiuci didn’t leave Tang Ziyou for a whole five months. He kept guarding him for fear that something would really happen to him.
Seeing him like this, Tang Ziyou was inexplicably worried about Gu Jiuci after his death in his previous life. He hoped that he would be all right, he prayed secretly.
At the end of June, 《Spring Festival》 was finally broadcast on Lemon TV, and Tang Ziyou also began to promote it on the show with other actors of the crew.
This drama had attracted a lot of attention. The real-time discussion on Weibo had been rising since the beginning of the broadcast. After the two episodes on the first day were aired, there were several hot searches and the forum Weibo was flooding.
“It seems to be pretty good.”
“The sense of rhythm is good. Continue to maintain this rhythm and I think it will explode.”
“Shan Qikun is really handsome, ah ah ah ah ah, I really like it!”
“Xu Sijia’s acting skills are mediocre. Sometimes I feel like she can’t catch Shan Qikun’s play.”
“It’s normal, too. Shan Qikun is the movie emperor, and Xu Sijia is not the movie queen. It’s not bad that she can act like this. You can’t ask everyone to have the movie emperor’s acting skills.”
“When will Gu Jiuci appear? I want to see him.”
“It’s still early. Tang Ziyou has just appeared on the stage. Gu Jiuci still has several episodes to appear.”
“Tang Ziyou is also beautiful. A beautiful boy in ancient costume, I’m gone. This appearance is absolutely amazing.”
“To tell the truth, I stand on the master and the disciple. The master is really fond of him. He especially left the magic weapon to the disciple. The female lead asked him to give it to him.”
“Don’t talk about it, upstairs. Looking at the trailer, he will return to the female lead later. Yingyingying, it’s too cruel.”
“What the fuck, can you still do this, it’s too cruel to Sheng Feiguang!?”
“Don’t ah, I cry.”
“No wonder that Sheng Feiguang is going to be possessed by the heart demon. It’s just that the master who loves him the most suddenly loves others, and even takes back what he gave him. Who can stand it? It’s too cruel!”
“Ah ah ah ah, is this true? I really want to watch it later, why hasn’t played yet, it’s killing me!”
Tang Ziyou watched his Weibo hot search ranking continue to climb and the number of fans soared again. He drank his saliva with peace of mind, feeling that his return this time should lead to a victory.
However, this was more than a victory. This was simply a god-level battle.
With the unfolding of the storyline and the development of the plot, Sheng Feiguang was possessed by the demon heart and Gu Jiuci appeared. Tang Ziyou’s popularity rose abruptly after it had already climbed a lot before. The popularity of a single person caught up with Shan Qikun. Personal posts account for almost half of the discussion posts related to 《Spring Festival》.
“Fuck!!! Gu Jiuci and Tang Ziyou’s CP feeling, heart demon X Sheng Feiguang, I’ll eat it!”
“Gu Jiuci’s role is more emotional than that of Master. Since Master already has the female lead, then Xiao Guang, you might as well follow the heart demon.”
“This heart demon is too handsome. I want to have the heart demon too.”
“Wake up, upstairs. Xiao Guang clearly only needs the master in his heart. He’s possessed by the demon is also related to the master. His true love is the master!”
“Don’t say it. The master has given the magic weapon to the female lead. The master obviously loves the female lead more. What’s the use of Xiao Guang’s love alone.”
“That’s right, the heart demon is different. I love Xiao Guang alone. If he is the demon king, Xiao Guang is his concubine!”
For a time, the Demon-Concubine Party and the Master-Disciple Party fought hard.
Shan Qikun’s only fans were better, just sat and watched the demon-concubine party and the master-disciple party compete, waiting for them to lose both. Their brother was the only beautiful one.
Gu Jiuci’s fans were very worried. It had been several episodes! Why! Gu Jiuci only had rival scenes with Tang Ziyou!
Even he hadn’t any rival scenes with Shan Qikun!
In this way, the Demon-Concubine Party would be the dominant family!
Demon-Concubine CP fans knew the rules of the circle very well. They never brought the big names to the outside world. They only said that they were character shippers and only stood for the heart demon and Sheng Feiguang. They never said that they stood for Gu Jiuci and Tang Ziyou for fear Red Wine Sisters tore them.
But even so, JiuTang cp also made it all the way to the top three in the cp list, surpassing ShanTang cp, just like demon-concubine cp and master-disciple cp.
This was mainly due to the fact that Gu Jiuci had only Tang Ziyou as the partner in this play. In addition to Tang Ziyou, Shan Qikun also had the female lead Yu Xiaoliu and other girls who liked him, which invisibly dispersed the cp popularity.
When Sheng Feiguang rescued Fu Yongsi alone, returned his life-saving heart clock and was rescued by the heart demon, the fight of cp party also came to an end.
Official fans felt that there were too many scenes with Sheng Feiguang. Why couldn’t the female lead rescue Fu Yongsi alone in this scene, but Sheng Feiguang went first. The female lead arrived later and the two worked together to take Fu Yongsi away. Wasn’t this adding drama to Sheng Feiguang?
The master-disciple party was crying and shouting for a beautiful love, kswl, what kind of emotional master-disciple relationship was this, it would be better to die for you, do sisters eat cp? Give it a go to understand master-disciple cp!
Demon-concubine party was decapitated for Amway’s fairy love. It wasn’t a loss to invest in shares. I will always be your strong backing. As long as you stand in demon-concubine, we will be good friends! (魔妃党断头安利神仙爱情)
In this episode, the patterned shape on Tang Ziyou’s face appeared for the first time. With his desolate eyes looking at the moon, he successfully shocked netizens.
Netizens watched more than 20 episodes of the beautiful son in the world of chaos, the elegant young man, and suddenly saw him in the last scene. The whole person had a gloomy and charming beauty because of the appearance of the pattern. They took screenshots one after another and sent him to the hot search again. (浊世佳公子, I don’t know exactly what it is)
Tang Ziyou’s explosiveness was as expected, but unexpected.
Even if everyone guessed that his play would attract fans and explode, most people thought that his second explosion would return to his coffee position before he was hidden in the snow, return to the second-tier group, become famous online, and become traffic.
No one expected that he would explode directly to the front line and become the most discussed and fan-absorbed person in this drama.
There were also bloggers who specifically analyzed the reasons for this and finally came to the conclusion, for celebrities, like Shan Qikun and Gu Jiuci, they were basically on the ceiling and wouldn’t go anywhere if they exploded once again. Tang Ziyou had become the biggest winner of this drama because of his low starting point.
As for the female lead Xu Sijia, she was the normal popularity bonus of a popular drama actress under normal circumstances. However, this drama was too special. She lost the line of Gu Jiuci, so she naturally lost a part of the audience. Therefore, under comparison with Tang Ziyou, the bonus wasn’t as good as expected.
Xu Sijia’s fans tore up the crew for several days. Finally, Cheng Feng posted on Weibo, saying that the play itself didn’t invite Gu Jiuci, but he was only moved by the sincerity of the crew when he visited the class. Coupled with Shan Qikun’s friendly invitation, he chose a character he liked to make a cameo appearance. It wasn’t that the crew was partial to anyone, but that this situation wasn’t in the crew’s plan.
When JiuTang CP fans heard this, they screamed in the CP super chat: “Have you seen the new Weibo posted by screenwriter Cheng Feng? Film Emperor Gu chose this role himself, saying that he liked the character. Rounding it up, don’t you like to play rival scenes with Xiao Tang, do you like Xiao Tang?!!!”
“That’s right!! I ate this candy first. Brother Gu chose it himself. It’s too sweet.”
“I just say that Brother Gu likes Xiao Tang. Otherwise, why does he only have rival scenes with Xiao Tang in the whole play, not even with Brother Shan!”
Tang Ziyou watched his popularity and the popularity of JiuTang cp soaring. He opened his trumpet account in fear and saw that there were indeed a lot of private messages.
The content of the first private message was almost, “Brother Yibei, come and see. Brother and Tang Ziyou cooperated together, are you happy?”
Now it had become, “Brother, are you consuming cp? JiuTang is delicious. Brother, you are too happy. One is the previous favourite idol, the other is the idol in your current heart. This is so great!”
Tang Ziyou: …it’s not that great, I’m even scared to death, thank you!
He silently quitted his Weibo trumpet account, daring not to speak aloud, let alone talk to sister fans who he knew before.
On the other hand, Gu Jiuci was very active, wearing a vest in Tang Ziyou’s fans, blatantly swaggering through the market, for fear that no one would see that he was a CP fan.
When JiuTang CP fans saw that such a local tyrant fan joined the CP camp, the whole people applauded, warmly welcomed him, pulled the group, and private messages. (拉群的拉群,私信的私信, not sure how to translate it)
Tang Ziyou’s only sucker fans looked at it, simply the big head, this Jiu love Tang guy, how could he say that? (棒棒糖, meant lollipop or sucker, should I change into lollipop instead?)
You said he was good. He was also reliable to support. He rushed to the top of the sales volume every time and he wasn’t lacking when the krypton gold was needed. Even every time he supported, he had to ask the management of the support club in advance, “Is there enough money? Our Xiao You can’t be compared, we have to have what others have, and we have to have what others don’t have. If it’s not enough, just tell me.”
But he is a CP fan! Although he didn’t spend money on Gu Jiuci, but only paid money to Tang Ziyou, which was very crooked, he insisted that JiuTang must be real. This is true love. If anyone mentioned Tang Ziyou’s other CPs to him, he would immediately give a black warning!
This was simply, not to leave, not to stay, it wasn’t to love, and it wasn’t to hate.
Tang sucker sisters were very distressed.
Tang Ziyou’s explosiveness was amazing and the follow-up resources also obviously caught up. Whether it was advertising endorsements, luxury goods cooperation, or magazine shooting, they all sent cooperation intentions to Liu Xu, and even the script obviously had several batches.
In these scripts, Tang Ziyou finally saw a relatively satisfactory one. It was a crime play. He played the criminal and the policeman was a powerful actor, with two male protagonists. It wasn’t out of the norm. The plot idea was wonderful and the characters weren’t stereotyped. Overall was good. Moreover, it was still a movie.
Gu Jiuci helped him to look at it and felt that it was really good. The schedule was also very suitable. The shooting started in September and Tang Ziyou could rest for a while.
The two agreed on this together. After Liu Xu asked him to sign a new endorsement, he went to negotiate a contract with the crew.
The live broadcast of《Spring Festival》didn’t end until the beginning of August. In the last episode, Sheng Feiguang blocked a sword for Fu Yongsi, concealed his identity, and ended his short life on the cliff.
In his life, he had loved and hated, but in the end, he had all returned to peace.
He looked at the sky quietly and closed his eyes.
The heart demon stayed by his side, burned him on fire, and let him fall asleep again.
While the master-disciple party was satisfied, it was difficult to calm down. When the demon-concubine party was heartbroken, they felt that this was another HE (Happy Ending). While passers-by watching the drama sighed and shed a tear for his true feelings.
He was the unsatisfactory one in the happy ending, which made more people remember his gap and become the white moonlight in the hearts of fans, strengthening and enhancing his popularity for the last time.
In such popularity situation, Tang Ziyou’s newly signed movie 《Double Side》 《双面》was officially announced.
Tang Ziyou’s fans enthusiastically commented on Weibo, asking the crew to take good care of Tang Ziyou and give him a good ending.
Official Bo Mai Meng replied: But Brother Tang Ziyou is playing a criminal this time [crying] [crying] [crying].
Tang Ziyou’s fans: …okay, then better to die, evil can’t overcome righteousness!
Tang Ziyou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The forum opened a post to analyze his film resources and finally came to a unified conclusion, “The team is good and the script is excellent. It depends on whether he can control it himself. If he plays it well, he won’t only have a wider range of plays in the future, but also opened the door to the film industry. If he doesn’t perform well, he can only come back and continue to mix in the TV industry, and it may limit to the theme of ancient costumes.”
Tang Ziyou’s fans were very confident in him, thinking that he could do it. Passers-by were feeling him right now and thought he might be fine. Only Tang Ziyou’s anti-fans shouted, “Impossible. His acting skills are just on the small screen. The big screen must be exposed!” (大屏幕肯定得暴露)
Tang Ziyou was also very worried that he hadn’t acted in a movie before. There would be a big difference between the big screen and the small screen, so he asked Gu Jiuci specifically.
Gu Jiuci said proudly, “It’s okay. Your husband will teach you then I will definitely let you get an award for this film. The worst is also the best newcomer.”
Tang Ziyou: “…then you’re very amazing oh~”
But… forget about the husband thing.
He called up the WeChat on his mobile phone and showed it to Gu Jiuci. Gu Jiuci saw the three words of Mr Gu (顾先生) in bright light. It wasn’t husband, let alone A. It wasn’t on the top.
Gu Jiuci felt sad in an instant, “Even Xiao Jiu is better than Mr Gu.”
“It’s not September yet.” Tang Ziyou said.
Gu Jiuci: ……
“Obviously you have forgiven me.” He said aggrievedly.
Tang Ziyou sighed, “You mean I forgive too early?”
Gu Jiuci hurriedly shook his head, took his hand, and said, “Not too early, not too early. Mr Gu is good, Mr Gu is the best. There’s only half a month left until September.”
It was only then that Tang Ziyou realized. Before he knew it, he had been reborn for about a year.
In one year, a lot had changed.
At this time last year, he and Gu Jiuci had their own thoughts. At this time this year, they were both already sleeping in the same bed, which was really surprising!
However, it was always a good change. A change was still a change, right. He lived a new life. Originally, he just wanted to become a better version of himself.
