A month and a half were gone in a flash, this day was Qi Le An’s last shooting day.

Qi Le An’s final scene was where Bell, his character died to protect his master. After two hours of shooting, Director Cui finally smiled with satisfaction. Director Cui handed Qi Le An a handsome red packet to ward off ill luck from the death scene he just shot, while Hu Bin gave Qi Le An a big hug.

The ticket Glory booked for Qi Le An was in the afternoon, Qi Le An didn’t have time to do a proper farewell with the setting, he just said goodbye to a few crew members who were on great terms with him and then he went back to the hotel to pack up.

Qi Le An arrived at the train station an hour earlier than his departing time, but he met someone who he hated in the cafe by the station, Chu Cheng Yuan!

Waving his arms and stamping his feet in joy, Chu Cheng Yuan was talking to someone. It occurred to Qi Le An that Chu Cheng Yuan had said that he had been determined to be an actor since he was a kid, but what had inspired him further was a director took a shine to him when he visited a film and television base and the director asked him to play a minor role in the drama, that was how he debuted.

‘Could it be this visit?’ Qi Le An wondered.

‘Chu Cheng Yuan, I’ve always treated you well, but you put your iron hand in a velvet glove, I’m not sure whether it was you who had planned the car accident, but you surely are a traitor! Will history repeat itself if I do nothing?’

Qi Le An adjusted his facial expression and took a deep breath before he walked towards Chu Cheng Yuan, he patted Chu Cheng Yuan’s shoulder and exclaimed, “Ding, what are you doing here!”

“Do I know you?” Chu Cheng Yuan turned around in a huff and rubbed his shoulder.

Qi Le An quickly put Chu Cheng Yuan hair in his pocket and acted surprised, “I’m so sorry, I thought you were my friend, you two look so familiar from the back!”

Chu Cheng Yuan rolled his eyes and cursed in a whisper, with that he turned back ans continued the conversation with his friend.

Qi Le An sneered and walked away, ‘I can’t stop you from entering show business once and for all, but I can interfere in your choices.’

Qi Le An fabricated a nightmare for Chu Cheng Yuan that night, in the nightmare, Chu Cheng Yuan fell from the saddle and got hurt in shooting.

Having finished his first drama, but Glory didn’t arrange anything special for Qi Le An because there were numerous trainees in Glory.

Qi Le An went back to the classroom the next morning. Some trainees were more indifferent to him, while some started to treat him nicely. Qi Le An dosed them with their own physic, he would return a fake smile or silence accordingly.

Mr. Li spoke highly of Qi Le An, he asked Qi Le An to stay humble in private and he assured Qi Le An that he would recommend Qi Le An when a good opportunity came up.

Yan Lang was still not back, Qi Le An was more than happy to hog the dormitory, he would binge watch subtitled movies to broaden his horizon, for he knew he didn’t watch enough masterpieces in his last life.

Qi Le An had met Uncle who was waiting to confront him at the gate on the day off, Uncle dashed to Qi Le An and grabbed his collar, “You spoiled brat, what a rebel!”

The security guards were used to farces like this, they just turned their heads in silence. Qi Le An sized up the situation and begged for mercy, “Uncle, listen to me!”

Uncle sneered, “Now you are calling me uncle, you were so bold in the setting, weren’t you?”

“That’s pure misunderstanding! Glory forced me to do that, I’ve been trying to contact you!” Qi Le An looked pathetic.

“Glory forced you? What happened?”

Qi Le An heaved a sigh for he knew Uncle wasn’t going to beat him up now, his face was his everything at this point, he couldn’t afford to have it ruined by Uncle.

“Yeah, Glory made that rule recently. Uncle, of course I’m only grateful too you. Today is my day off, I was going to mail you a big red packet.” Qi Le An continued.

Qi Le An looked appeased on hearing red packet. ‘I know this boy, he dares not lie to me.’

“Show me the red packet!” Uncle raised an eyebrow.

Qi Le An produced the red packet Director Cui from his pocket and gave it to Uncle, Director Cui had put three thousand yuan in the packet and now there was only five hundred inside.

Uncle counted the notes and said in a disapproving tone, “Aren’t you a star now? How come there’s only this much?”

Qi Le An permitted himself a wry smile, “I wish I had more, but Glory took most my money, I saved hard for this red packet.”

Uncle looked convinced, he murmured, “Five hundred isn’t good for nothing, your aunt is still suffering, you need to make more money!”

Qi Le An sneered in the heart, but he said, “Uncle, it’s getting so late, I need to punch in at my dorm soon otherwise I will get a fine. Can I find a hotel for you now, and I can ask for a day off tomorrow and show you around.”

Uncle replied promptly, “A fine? Quickly, let’s find a hotel now!”

The hotels near Glory were all fancy and expensive, Qi Le An found the most reasonable-priced one but he still frowned on seeing the price. Qi Le An had thought a way to deal with Uncle so he checked in a room for Uncle willingly.

Uncle looked satisfied as he entered the room. Qi Le An handed Uncle a nail clippers, “Uncle, my friend gave me this nail clippers as a present, it’s quite expensive. Please take it as a gift from me now.”

It was actually just a nail clippers Qi Le An bought from a night stall, but Qi Le An said it was quite expensive because he knew what a snob Uncle was.

Uncle took the nail clippers gladly, he cut his nails right away to test it, “Good, very sharp! You go back now, go punch in, I don’t want you to have a fine! I’m going to the bathroom now.”

Qi Le An nodded and smiled, he put Uncle’s nail tip in his pocket.

Qi Le An said goodbye to Uncle when Uncle stuffed all the complimentary toiletries into his bag.

To Qi Le An’s surprise, he bumped into Wei Chang Feng in the elevator. Wei Chang Feng was wearing a cap, and his outfit was quite plain as well, a white T-shirt and jeans, but his handsome face had gave him away.

Qi Le An was shocked to see Wei Chang Feng here, this hotel was just an okay one, plus why would Wei Chang Feng show up near Glory! But soon he had no time to think about those questions, because he found out that Wei Chang Feng was a bit... drunk!

Wei Chang Feng flashed a silly smile to Qi Le An, Qi Le An asked tentatively, “Wei Sama?”

“An,” the smile lingered on Wei Chang Feng’s face, he stroked Qi Le An’s face, “Long time.”

Qi Le An was flattered, “Wei Sama, what’s... what’s going on?”

Wei Chang Feng put his arm around Qi Le An, “Nothing is going on, care for a drink? No, no, you are too young to drink now!”

The elevator now had arrived at the ground level, but Qi Le An found it proper to just let Wei Chang Feng walk out like this, so he pressed the button 20.

Wei Chang Feng showed no reaction on seeing that, he just stared at Qi Le An with a smile.

“Wei Sama, which room you are in? Let me walk you back?”

Wei Chang Feng now had lost his balance, he relied heavily on Qi Le An. It was summer, Qi Le An could feel Wei Chang Feng’s body through the thin layer of fabric.

Wei Chang Feng still kept silent, but he was apparently in a good mood for he started humming. Qi Le An pouted, he had to search Wei Chang Feng’s pocket for his room key.

Qi Le An fished for the key for a while, and he found Wei Chang Feng was in the hotel across the street, not this one!

It seemed like Wei Chang Feng had entered the wrong hotel.

Qi Le An was at a loss for what to do next, he studied their posture in the mirror, Wei Chang Feng’s arms were now wrapped around Qi Le An’s lower back tightly, hmm, they looked like a couple.

Qi Le An pressed 1 again, then he asked tentatively, “Wei Sama, can you stand on your own feet?”

Wei Chang Feng kept humming instead of giving Qi Le An a reply. They were approaching ground floor, Qi Le An was thinking should he push Wei Chang Feng away and walk out of the elevator separately but Wei Chang Feng suddenly stood on his own feet when the elevator door opened.

Qi Le An turned around and stared at Wei Chang Feng, ‘What? Are you really drunk?’

‘You better not be messing with me!’
