When they went back to their room, Shen Qi and Jiang Changshen did it.

Along the way, Jiang Changshen dragged Shen Qi into the room before pressing his hands onto the door. They were both very excited.

Shen Qi had been teased for so many days, he could not endure the fire anymore. After Jiang Changshen released the knot in his heart, he really wished he could devour Shen Qi at that moment.

This battle, from the entrance to the living room to the bathroom and finally to the bedroom, clothes scattered all over the place. Fortunately, Shen Qi already bought everything they needed.

They fought until the middle of the night. The next day Shen Qi rested, his voice was gone, his body was limp on the bed, and quickly fell asleep.

Jiang Changshen slept after cleaning him. After all, the work is not only on one person, the one on top also gets tired. The two woke up at two in the afternoon.

Once he started, he couldn’t stop. It was as if hungry wolves saw fresh meat, bees met honey, Pan Jinlian met Ximen Qing 1, pei pei, in short, the two have passionate love, you have me, I have you, completely let go of the boundaries.

In the eyes of two managers, if they could not tolerate it before, now they were going blind from the flash surrounding them.

And this flash lasted a full five years.

Five years down the line, the two were still dating under the public’s eye, apart from close relatives and friends, no one else found out.

Five years together, the relationship between the two strengthened more and more. Even if they did not see each other for a couple of months, their relationship did not falter at all, but also let people who did not think they were going to last to shut up, it was really true love.

But it was at most a month or two. Shen Qi went into the entertainment industry with an ulterior motive, to pursue Jiang Changshen. Now that he had gotten the guy, and they were in the honeymoon phase. He can put aside his career, since he doesn’t want to be like the other idols, working hard to get a moment of fame. Since Jiang Changshen was helping him train his acting skills, he can take his career slowly, and film one to two movies per year.

As for the problem of resources, with big brother Shen, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Of course, now there was a Jiang movie emperor.

So it is clear that after debuting, Ning Yuntian is far more popular than Shen Qi now.

Shen Qi was not short of money and didn’t care about fame. He didn’t accept random films or run meaningless notices. Only releasing a drama or film per year, in the eyes of outsiders, the attention on him gradually reduced.

Ning Yuntian had around three dramas each year, receiving endorsements until his hands became soft. He had also dabbled in movies, soon reaching the top of the best actors, with an unstoppable force.

Shen Qi has no problem with Ning Yuntian, as long as he does not provoke Jiang Changshen. He wouldn’t mess with him, even though he knew of Ning Yuntian’s schemes to get to the top, he wouldn’t offend him a bit, otherwise, with his identity setup, he could have completely suppressed him at the beginning.

Yes, Shen Qi’s attitude toward Ning Yuntian was to ignore him. 

If it wasn’t for the program reminding him when he had reached the endpoint, he would almost forget that there was such a person named Ning Yuntian, an irrelevant person, why would he care about him?

And he had no intention to directly confront Ning Yuntian from the beginning, the storyline plays out the same, with his intervention, the future will certainly change, Ning Yuntian is no longer likely to have anything to do with Jiang Changshen, he does not need to target him for what has not yet happened.

Moreover, after he deliberately revealed his relationship with Jiang Changshen, Ning Yuntian avoided them. He would not take the initiative to mess with him again, only focusing on Jiang Changshen. Others were not in the scope of his concern.

After a reminder from the program, Shen Qi realized he was now at the end of the story. According to the original world, it was time for Ning Yuntian to dump Jiang Changshen, and announce his marriage to an actress.

However, this time, Ning Yuntian did not announce his marriage, not even rumors of a relationship.

Shen Qi was curious and mentioned this once. Jiang Chang Sun’s manager, Song Yan, immediately explained the truth.

It turns out that this time Ning Yuntian did not seduce Jiang Changshen, but instead liked a kind and charitable wealthy woman who is only 35 now. She is known as Miss Jiang 2 and her appearance is comparable to a celebrity’s.

Miss Jiang came from a small rich family, and later married a nouveau riche, but unfortunately, they were only married for three years, before he had an accident, and she inherited all the property. From then on, she was indifferent to the world, and never married again. Only interested in looking for some good-looking stars to support.

Before Ning Yuntian, she changed people quickly, after Ning Yuntian, she actually did not switch for five years.

For Ning Yuntian to climb to his current status, Miss Jiang must have used a lot of effort.

No one knew about this in the outside world, but in the entertainment circle, there were quite a few.

No wonder there are no more rumors of marriage.

Shen Qi dazed for a moment, then abandoned the topic. Whether Ning Yuntian is voluntary or just tolerating, or whether he will betray Miss Jiang like Jiang Changshen, or if this is true love, it does not matter to him. As long as he and Jiang Changshen are not involved, he does not care what he does.

However, Jiang Changshen’s happiness value was giving him a headache.

Before accepting this project, Shen Qi always thought that this was the same as his previous missions. He could leave the world once they got to the end of the storyline. In the past worlds, they were like drama series. He entered from the first episode and left on the last episode, after eliminating those so-called protagonists, the world would return to normal. He would restart from the first episode of a new cycle.

Now that five years have passed, he was now at the end of the storyline, yet the world had not stopped yet. He is also not leaving, and most importantly, Jiang Changshen’s happiness value was not full yet.

After the mid-autumn festival, Jiang Chang-Shen’s happiness value reached 89, five years have passed, his points rose 3 points, 92, this was only during the first three years, it had not increased in the last two years. 

Shen Qi has a vague guess that this so-called happiness value takes time to accumulate to one hundred. It is not as easy to reach 100%.

He could only let time decide, and could not resist, or else, it would be hard to have a peaceful life. Using his life motto, live every day as if it were his last, he quickly placed his worry aside. In any case, it was not a bad option to stay and enjoy life. 

This lasted for another 30 years.

On the first tenth, Shen Qi won the title of movie emperor with a literary movie. When delivering the award speech, he boldly came out in public and proposed to Jiang Changshen. At the same time, he announced his retirement.

The two generations of movie stars becoming a couple really shocked a lot of people. During the early years, Jiang Changshen and Shen Qi’s minister and emperor CP 3 in the movie “Great Wei Dynasty” was extremely popular, and gained a lot of CP fans. After the movie, the two idols would still release clips of their sweet love, so the CP fans never left the group. 

Once the news came out, the CP fans cheered and ran around to spread the news.

Ten years had passed, and the country was still lenient on same-sex couples. The new generation, in particular, was very open-minded. Shen Qi was not the first artist in the entertainment circle to come out publicly but was one with the highest status, plus his partner was Jiang Changshen, which in turn attracted more fans.

Shen Qi was leaning on Jiang Changshen’s chest while scrolling on social media, looking at the blessings, with his face beaming with joy. After that, he tilted his head up to nibble on Jiang Changshen’s chin. The current Shen Qi is exactly the same age as Jiang Changshen when he first met him, less youthful, more mature, more handsome, with his own unique temperament.

Jiang Changshen has also maintained his handsomeness very well and has been insisting on exercising, especially in these years, in order to look compatible with Shen Qi. He paid great attention to health. When the two stand together, at best, they look like brothers, with no difference in generations. A handsome face with the accumulation of time looked more mature and more charming, still making Shen Qi obsessed.

“Mom and I have discussed it. I will try on the attire the day after tomorrow.”

He broke a piece of apple and handed it to Shen Qi’s mouth, he was referring to Mother Shen and not Mother Jiang. Over the years, Jiang Changshen and the Shen family are getting closer, especially with Mother Shen. He was more like her son than Shen Qi.

“Sounds good.” Shen Qi said vaguely, eyes rolling, “Do not forget the bet you owe me, there must also be a wedding dress.”

After the proposal, naturally, was the wedding, Sister Shen didn’t believe in marriage. After so many years, Mother Shen was finally able to use her skills. Their wedding was given to her to plan. 

As for the wedding dress, this was a bet between them. Whoever loses would have to wear a wedding dress. Shen Qi won the bet, although by cheating a little. However, the thought of Jiang Changshen wearing a wedding dress was very interesting.

Jiang Changshen raised his eyebrows, looking more and more introverted and elegant, and smiled: “Don’t worry, I remember.”

Then…Shen Qi became silent.

The wedding dress that was supposed to be worn by Jiang Changshen somehow got to him, and then there was no more. The wedding dress that was too embarrassing to look at was decisively hidden in the bottom of the box by him.

In the second 10th year, Shen Qi and Jiang Changshen traveled around the world together. Although they were both retired, they still updated their social media from time to time to interact with fans and netizens. Two middle-aged men were showing their love to the fans, that even they could not tolerate it.

At the same time, they sent father and mother Shen off to Heaven. Grandma Shen passed away in the third year of their relationship. 

There was also Mother Jiang.

Mother Jiang was angered to death by her favorite son, Jiang Nianjin.

Jiang Nianjin got married at the age of thirty-three, and with the title of Piano King, which Jiang Changshen got him, he attracted a real rich woman. Mother Jiang was overjoyed with the news.

However, after only three years of marriage, Jiang Nianjin cheated on his wife, saying that he had finally met his true love, and insisted on divorce despite the fact that she was still pregnant, almost exactly like what Mother Jiang did back then.

When Mother Jiang went to persuade him, he accused Mother Jiang of not understanding him, like “Mom, you also experienced true love, how can you not understand me?”, “You also divorced that man for my father, why won’t you help me?”, angering Mother Jiang to the point of fainting, and suffering from a stroke.

Jiang Nianjin and Mother Jiang were all famous people. When this matter went public, the woman hated him, making him divorce her without gaining anything, and did not avoid publicizing this, before aborting the child and leaving the country to start anew.

Jiang Nianjin grew up being taught by Mother Jiang about true love supremacy. He doesn’t need anything but true love. As a result, after 3 months, he took his true love to the hospital to meet Mother Jiang.

In the beginning, Mother Jiang still loved her son. Seeing that the situation had become like this, she took out her own savings to help the two, but with Jiang Nianjin’s reputation, no source of income, piano teacher type of work that he is ashamed to do, he depended on his mother’s savings to live.

But with his and true love’s concept of consumption, they soon squandered all of Mother Jiang’s savings.

In fact, there was not a lot of money in the account. It was what Jiang Changshen’s father left her. She gave almost all of it to Jiang Shujin. After the death of Jiang Shujin, the money was divided amongst his relatives. She did not ask for any of it because of guilt.

After that, her source of income came from Jiang Changshen, who gave her a sum of money every year to cover her expenses out of his obligation to support her, but she was so used to the luxury that she didn’t save much of it.

Once again, she was so angry with her beloved son that she had to go to Jiang Changshen. But unfortunately, Jiang Changshen did not pay her any attention, no matter how much she threatened him. Jiang Changshen has long since quit the entertainment industry and does not care about his reputation, so Mother Jiang had no choice but to stop.

Mother Jiang stopped, but Jiang Nianjin did not. With no name, or money, how was he able to support his true love? Gradually, the two kept arguing until it got out of hand. Until the last time, Mother Jiang fainted, and never woke up again.

It is also very ironic.

When Shen Qi and Jiang Changshu received the news, they hurried back to attend the funeral.

As for Jiang Nianjin, his true love finally couldn’t endure it and ran away. He fell seriously ill, then woke up and borrowed a sum of money from Jiang Changshen. He opened a small musical instrument shop and remained unmarried for the rest of his life.

In the last ten years, Shen Qi and Jiang Changshen entered retirement life. They did not have children, because of Jiang Changshen’s childhood experience. He did not have the confidence to be responsible for the child’s entire life.

""

Shen Qi had a brother and sister. Although Sister Shen was unmarried, she had two children by surrogate. There were also other family members who had children, so they simply lived without having any.

The two of them lived life leisurely. They also helped take care of the grandchildren of sister and brother Shen, living a comfortable life, and of course, not forgetting to show their love online.

A netizen can’t help but spit out: “When I was in elementary school they were showing love, I was in middle school they were showing love, Fuck! I have graduated and worked, yet they are still showing love. Are you guys letting people live?!”

This made Shen Qi happy.

Then it seemed like overnight, Jiang Chang Shen aged. When he was sixty years old, he was still able to carry Shen Qi from the first floor to the second floor. Once he passed seventy-one, he instantly aged. In one early morning, he collapsed without any warning.

He woke up once in the middle of the day while holding Shen Qi’s hand, the original cloudy eyes were bright. He could not say anything, but Shen Qi understood what he wanted to say.

I love you.

“I love you too.” Shen Qi’s tears gushed out. He knew that Jiang Changshen would never wake up.

They have been together for more than 30 years. How could he have no feelings for him? Not to mention that he was in love with him from the beginning.

Jiang Changshen closed his eyes with a smile.

“Happiness value +1.”

“Happiness value complete.”

Seven days after Jiang Changshen’s funeral, Shen Qi died as well.

The fans who followed the two to old age edited a short documentary for the two, recounting their acquaintance to love to companionship, and adding the “Great Wei Dynasty”, their first movie together, editing out the past life and present life.

In my past life, I was a king and you were a minister. We were childhood sweethearts, yet you died to save me. I regret it with my life. In this life, I will protect you and love you, and accompany you until death.

A short film, in exchange for a basket of tears.
