Chapter 43: CH 32

Chapter 32: Dream

The source of the gossip about Yan Mu Lin and Yan Zi Qiong was probably someone inside the 《Spy》 crew. A lot of people there knew that Yan Zi Qiong came with Yan Mu Lin. He concluded this through elimination. However, it could also be the revenge of people who got robbed of their rice bowls. Just on the day of the audition, a lot of brokers found out that Yan Mu Lin was being managed by Zhou Wen Jing. Zhou Wen Jing’s most successful artist was Yan Zi Qiong.

Zhou Wen Jing had a lot of experiences with stars, but she has never raised a voice actor in her name. He was not a singing star or a film star. Yan Mu Lin’s appearance broke her routine, which made a lot of agents speculate.

The agents’ circle was also complicated. How many male teen idols were under Zhou Wen Jing’s name? The spread of information between them was fast and abundant. Zhou Wen Jing was not an unknown agent. Her every move was under the scrutiny of many people. Now, Yan Mu Lin’s popularity was skyrocketing. A young newcomer with little fame suddenly emerged. He wasn’t even noticed by fans due to his appearance. It was only natural for them to doubt his popularity. Professional skills and diligence were not enough.

Anyway, since they could pour cold water on Yan Mu Lin’s popularity, the easiest way would be through Zhang Jing Jing. The rest would take advantage of seeing others blacken Yan Mu Lin.

Weibo was now filled with the news about Yan Mu Lin. There was also a photo of the two in the set. The way they shot the photo was very clever. Yan Mu Lin was looking at Director Guo Li Peng, while Yan Zi Qiong was on his side looking at him with complex eyes. The photo was deliberately taken like this to let the people’s imagination think that he was really being kept.

Netizen 1: Hey, Sister Yan’s eyes are really affectionate. What is she thinking at that time? My little boyfriend is actually talking to this old man, annoying!

Netizen 2: An old cow eats young grass. I really don’t understand what’s going on the current entertainment scene. Their age difference is almost 20 years old, right? Young people now do not wish for success, but instead, use dishonest practices and take shortcuts. However, through this occasion, his popularity will rise again, right? Hehe.

Netizen 3: Hehe. This little youth looks good. Why should he be kept by an old woman, ah?

Netizen 4: I was his fan. I think the way he dubbed 《Pan Jinlian》 was very good. I did not expect that his character would be this bad. Maybe Wei Zi Jun’s role in 《Spy》 would also be relying on Yan Mu Lin’s voice.

Netizen 5: Male idol with an old woman, really disgusting! No longer a fan!

Netizen 6: Hehe. You guys don’t understand. This is caused by other people’s jealousy.

……

The Internet was filled with people vilifying them. Yan Mu Lin was very speechless. Only they were aware of the truth. Should they directly announce his relationship with Yan Zi Qiong, or should they remain silent? He chose the latter. It was just a rumor, why pay attention to it? If he told the media about this, and their mother and son relationship was revealed, how would they explain it? When they lie, a thousand more is needed to hide it. It was better to ignore the monkeys jumping about.

Yan Mu Lin’s Weibo has been given to Zhou Wen Jing’s team. He only goes there occasionally. There’s no need to do something about it if he could not see it. It was really hilarious that it was starting to affect his mood.

The water army was too ferocious so Zhou Wen Jing’s team had no choice but to ask their leader’s opinion first.

Yan Mu Lin sat on the sofa and closed his eyes. Yan Zi Qiong sat on the other side, and if you looked at her closely, she seemed to be a little overcautious. She did not expect for this kind of thing to happen. Towards Yan Mu Lin, as his mother, she had no choice but to act like a stranger. She brought him nothing but trouble.

The company’s higher ranks attached extreme importance to Yan Mu Lin. At this moment, they were foolishly standing at Fang Yi Yuan’s office.

Fang Yi Yuan knew about this matter between Yan Mu Lin and Yan Zi Qiong. Yan Zi Qiong wanted to disclose their relationship with each other, as right now, she did not care much about her fame.

Fang Yi Yuan asked Yan Mu Lin, “What do you think about this?”

Yan Mu Lin opened his eyes slightly and said sleepily: “Remain silent. Let them say what they want since they love talking so much ah.”

Fang Yi Yuan thought that his words made sense. He nodded, “Wen Jing, I have no opinion on this. Let’s listen to Mu Lin.”

Yan Zi Qiong said, “I want to publicize my relationship with Mu Lin.”

Yan Mu Lin directly refused, “No. They will stop sooner or later. There’s no need to do that.”

Zhou Wen Jing did not support Yan Zi Qiong’s idea. There was absolutely no need to give up all of her hard work in order to clear up gossip. She believed that Yan Mu Lin understood.

Yan Mu Lin’s method made Yan Zi Qiong feel distressed. She did not know when this child matured that he could do whatever he wants, and assume responsibility.

After determining what to do, Yan Mu Lin and Yan Zi Qiong left Fang Yi Yuan’s office together. Yan Mu Lin looked at Yan Zi Qiong. He hesitated before saying, “I am not doing this for you. I’m doing this so that it would be less troublesome in the future.”

He will respect Yan Zi Qiong and treat her like his biological mother, but he did not have a deep affection for her. He was only obliged to do this.

Yan Zi Qiong said indifferently, “En.” She acted like she did not care, but her voice had a slight tremble to it. Yan Mu Lin, who was sensitive to sound, still heard it.

Yan Mu Lin added, “Aunt… you should rest well. I can handle my own affairs.”

People were targeting Yan Mu Lin, not Yan Zi Qiong.

With his eyebrows knitted together, Yan Mu Lin wore his sunglasses. The young male assistant that Zhou Wen Jing arranged for him was especially quiet.

Right now, he had no plans to go out of the company with Yan Zi Qiong.

Yan Zi Qiong went to Zhou Wen Jing’s office to continue talking to Fang Yi Yuan. She was not in a good mood.

Self-made troubles should be solved.

Yan Zi Qiong’s mobile phone rang. She answered it directly, thinking it was Zhou Wen Jing.

Who would have thought that she would hear a voice she would never forget in her entire life, “Zi Qiong, I think we should meet.”

Today was a weekend so Yan Mu Lin did not have any plans to go back to school. He returned to his place with his assistant. This was the previous owner’s house, but he never stayed here. In the future, if he wanted to rise in the industry, then he must have his own house. There were too many people in the school. He could just be innocently talking to a girl, and then the media would say that they were together. It could even say that the other was pregnant. The media had no bottom line. In order to attract people, they would write and report about everything.

The more he explained, the more it would sound like a cover-up. He might as well let them have their own conclusions. Also, it is still not as good as ignoring all the chatter.

When they arrived at his house, Yan Mu Lin asked the assistant to look for a worker to clean up. He then disposed of the unnecessary items and arranged everything according to what he felt he was comfortable with.

Assistant Ah Ya was older than Yan Mu Lin. As soon as he entered the company, he immediately worked under Zhou Wen Jing and has already worked as an assistant for a celebrity. This time, he was assigned to Yan Mu Lin. He was originally unwilling so he was especially silent on the road. Let him do what he has to. He was already familiar with this job.

The original’s home has not been cleaned since he crossed over. The top of the table was dusty, and clothes were scattered everywhere.

An hour later, Yan Mu Lin has packed away the items he no longer needed for the cleaners to dispose of. He also bought new furniture for the money he just earned. He originally planned to sell the old furniture but Ah Ya said that 80% of his furniture was still new. It could be placed in an apartment for rent.

Yan Mu Lin thought that it was not good to waste resources.

Later that day, he designed his room to look like his previous room. It was refreshing and clean. The dark sheets of the bedroom were replaced with fresh blue sheets.

His apartment had two bedrooms and two other rooms. It was enough for him to live, work. A bedroom for him to rest in, and a study area. In his previous world, it was very difficult to earn money. To get his place before, he had to pay the loans right after paying the down payment.

There were no kitchen utensils, probably because the original owner has not been here for a long time. Yan Mu Lin and his assistant had to go to the supermarket to buy a bunch of kitchen utensils, oil, salt, rice, vegetables, and even frozen food.

Assistant Ah Ya was under the impression that he was transferred to this little master to serve him. Who would have thought that this handsome and elegant boy was not a false flower vase, but a genuine flower vase!

After cleaning up, it was already evening. The worker already left as it was too late. Yan Mu Lin and his assistant were too tired, so Yan Mu Lin thought of ordering take-out for dinner.  

The two were so tired that they did not want to move away from the sofa. Ah Ya took the initiative to use his phone to order take-out and said, “Mu Lin, do you usually live alone?”

Before coming, Zhou Wen Jing already emphasized to him that he must not ask about Yan Mu Lin’s family. If there were unusual situations, then he must report to her without delay.

Yan Mu Lin answered truthfully, “Yes. I am living and studying at school. I will return there later. Troubling you to pick me up.”

Ah Ya waved his hand, “No problem. Sister Zhou arranged for you to meet the director of 《Dream of the Red Chamber》crew with her tomorrow.”

Yan Mu Lin nodded, “I know about this.”

“You must not know that the 《Dream of the Red Chamber》 has an anime and a TV series. You are the voice actor of Lin Daiyu in the anime.”

Yan Mu Lin sat up straight, “Even the title has an anime?”

“Yes, the TV series has been filmed for two to three years now. It seemed that it would be broadcasted in the near future. The anime was based on the TV series. It seems that the drama would be more suitable for adults. The TV series and anime were produced at the same time, and their production cost was almost 300 million yuan.”

After listening to Ah Ya, Yan Mu Lin immediately brought out his laptop and searched for things related to 《Dream of the Red Chamber》. The earliest drama was from 50 years ago and it was in black and white. In order to ensure the quality, The remake of《Dream of the Red Chamber》 was still in the middle of filming.  Since their funds were big, the time they had for filming was long. According to the internet, various costumes were restored in order to shoot 《Dream of the Red Chamber》.

In his previous world, insert was written by Cao Xueqin for 80 years. He did not know why, but after the Qing Dynasty, 《Dream of the Red Chamber》 had an ending. According to the synopsis of the book on the internet, the full text was 120 pages and it was written by Cao Xue Qin. However, the last forty pages were filled by his descendants.

In the modern version of 《Dream of the Red Chamber》, Lin Daiyu’s death was not due to hemoptysis. She died as a young and beautiful woman.  On a cool night, she chose to drown herself in a lake.

Yan Mu Lin focused on reading the death of Daiyu. In this world, she still died but through a different method.

While feeling sorry, Yan Mu Lin remembered Chen Xiao Xu who played the role of Lin Daiyu in his world. Her portrayal of Lin Daiyu was accurate and extremely vivid. Lin Daiyu is kindhearted and careful, but she also possessed an uninhibited and rebellious side. She loved to play with kids and never failed to be warm and considerate. This pretty daughter in a humble family who had a special temperament was deeply attached to someone. In the end, she passed away with a sad ending.

Lin Daiyu has always been a tragic figure.

He still remembered her poem, 《Burial of the Flowers》:

As blossoms fade and fly across the sky,

Who pities the faded red, the scent that has been?

The gossamer softly floats over the spring pavilion,

Lightly, the willow fluff wafts to the embroidered screen.

……

The day that spring takes wing and beauty fades,

Who will care for the fallen blossom?

This was Lin Daiyu’s opinion on beauty. She used the flower as a metaphor. Also, there was that conversation between her and Jia Baoyu.

Yan Mu Lin’s stomach growled, however, he was still engrossed in thinking about the beauty of Lin Daiyu’s poem. When the scent of food wafted through the air, Yan Mu Lin remembered that Senior Chen Xiao Xu’s acting was really impressive and unforgettable. What made him feel distressed was that his senior died young due to an illness.

If possible, he hoped to reproduce his world’s Chen Xiaoxu’s voice. A sensitive and sentimental woman. A voice exclusive for Lin Daiyu.

Ah Ya drove back after dinner and went to pick up Yan Mu Lin the next day.

He did not sleep well last night. His dreams were filled with scenes of 《Dream of the Red Mansions》 in his previous world.

Finally, his dream returned to when Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu met for the first time.

In his dream, he did not know if it was Yan Mu Lin or Jia Baoyu, but the classic lines suddenly jumped out.

“I have already seen this sister before.”

When Yan Mu Lin looked at the petite figure, Sister Lin’s exquisite face suddenly turned to Shao Nuo Yu’s prideful and manly face……

Yan Mu Lin suddenly woke up!

His underwear was soiled.

Yan Mu Lin: “……”

He looked at the time and saw that it was 6 AM.  Yan Mu Lin changed his pants and took a quick shower.

Yan Mu Lin then ate his breakfast. When Ah Ya came to pick him up, he had already been dressed up, refreshed, and lively. Anyone who saw his smiling face in the morning would feel 10% better.

After that, they went to pick up Zhou Wen Jing.

They then headed to the 《Dream of the Red Mansions》 set.

How would the modern version of Lin Daiyu be portrayed?
