Chapter 47


The Fashion Icon magazine staff in charge of interviewing and shooting the cover model had a pretty magical day.

If it was said that the traffic young actor Lin Zixi decided at the last moment to postpone the photo shoot until the afternoon, yet their extremely meticulous (strict) editor-in-chief Cui unexpectedly didn’t get angry, it might be because this damn gay was dazzled by beauty and thus particularly tolerant. When the cover shooting location was changed from the 10,000 a day villa rented by their magazine to the only top luxury presidential suite in Hantang Jiayun, which was a newly opened top luxury hotel in B City, it could be regarded as the popular star having too much money and not minding the price of 99,000 a night. Even if Xiang Yunfei, a top domestic make-up artist who was originally on vacation and did not accept any job, specially flew in from out of town to give Lin Zixi the makeup he needed for the magazine shoot in advance, it also could be explained that the big agent Chen Yunyun, who had been in the entertainment circle for many years, utilized her personal connections to invite people. Then...

Who could tell them why the owner of Hantang Jiayun, Gu-founder and chairman of the board of directors of the Gu Group-Zecheng, such a business magnate like President Gu would watch their work at the shooting site from beginning to end?!

Oh, strictly speaking, Big Boss Gu did not actually watch from beginning to end.

After all, he was politely asked to go out to ‘deal with official business’ by Lin Zixi when he made comments for the Nth time because he felt that the photo result was too artificial.

But that was the most magical thing of the day, wasn't it?!

In the entertainment circle, there were a great deal of very famous big stars as well as 18th-tier newcomer small stars who were backed by gold masters. However, which of them did not draw a clear line with their gold masters in public? Even if they were photographed being affectionate with each other at dinner parties countless times, they would still be "unfamiliar" and "have only met a few times" in public.

People like Big Boss Gu who openly appeared in the other party's workplace not only could be counted on one’s fingers, it was also unprecedented.

What was more, although Gu Zecheng and Lin Zixi never showed any intimacy in front of them, the great photographer Zhang, who was widely known for his ‘stubbornness’ and ‘violent temper’, was still as quiet as a mouse, so young actor Lin rudely drove Big Boss Gu away….

At the end of the day, people in the fashion circle were all sophisticated. Even in such a magical situation, every staff member of Fashion Icon on the scene showed extremely high professionalism and completed the whole afternoon of photo shoot and interview, straight-faced. And then, they frantically sent messages in the work group:

"What's the relationship between these two?" This is the lighting master.

"I don't know. Anyway, it doesn't look like a simple money relationship..." This was the person in charge of the interview.

"Don't talk nonsense! Our Zixi has nothing to do with those messy things. They’re obviously just good friends!" This was the costume and props master—as Lin Zixi’s fan, her hands were shaking when she handed the matched clothes to her idol several times today.

"Good friends? He he." This was the one who videotaped the whole process of the photo shoot. She recently climbed the wall and became a new fan of Mu Zhongran, whose fans had had countless fights with Lin Zixi's.

"No matter what their relationship is, you should stop talking nonsense outside. It’s not a big deal if Stars Entertainment issues a lawyer's letter, but if you provoke Gu Zecheng's side, it’ll certainly be a big trouble." This was the special planner calling the shots, which ended their gossip.

And Big Boss Gu, who was hotly discussed by them, was on his way to the airport and lamenting about how incredible the magic of contemporary make-up was, "I don't know how Xiang Yunfei did it, but he was actually able to hide all the hickeys. It's right to invite him."

"First, apply the concealer twice, then foundation, and finally loose powder..." Young actor Lin, who had been mixing in the entertainment circle for several years, said with some uncertainty.

"...Oh, that's really amazing." Young actor Lin’s dad, who had lived for more than thirty years and was in contact with this magic vocabulary for the first time, replied after being silent for three seconds.
 
Lin Zixi turned his head and glanced at his dad, this ‘Muggle’, speaking in a very certain tone, "Stop pretending, you absolutely don't understand what I was talking about."

Gu-Muggle-Zecheng gently smiled at his unfilial son who had exposed him. After that, he adjusted the partition between the driver's seat and the rear compartment to opaque mode and began to press a certain someone down onto the seat and kiss him hard, ‘educating’ him to be obedient to his parents, which was a traditional virtue.

Once the shuttle car arrived at the VIP parking lot of the airport, Lin Zixi, who had been ‘educated’ during the whole journey, got off the car. His face was still a little hot, and his chest, which had been washed clean of many marks by the ‘magic dust’, had one more place that needed to be ‘magicked away’.

Lin Zixi, dragging a suitcase, took a few steps away from Gu Zecheng as if he was escaping and waved goodbye to him, "I'm going to meet my fans. I'll see you on the plane later."

Yes, that’s right, ever since Chen Yunyun, who had wilted for more than a month, received the good news of ‘her artist brother has reconciled with his gold master big shot and won't be blocked by the other party’, she seemed to have been revitalized. Not only did she give Lin Zixi three jobs in one breath, she even arranged for fans in B City and S City to drop off and pick up Lin Zixi in the evening.

"Your fans haven't seen you much for almost three months. Do you have the heart to let them look at you just through photos and the screen and not even give them the opportunity to see you at such a close distance?" Chen Yunyun asked on the phone.

Young actor Lin was usually soft-hearted towards fans, so he naturally didn’t have the heart.

As a result, a certain person went through the ordinary boarding passage but was accompanied by hundreds of adoring fans, cheering and laughing as if they were celebrating the Chinese New Year in advance; while another person obviously went through the highest level passage but only a VIP receptionist accompanied him along the way, and the atmosphere was as somber as a lonely old man, who needed even more concern and care, celebrating the Chinese New Year.

What was worse, after a certain lonely… VIP passenger, who was the first to board the plane, was seated in the first class cabin, he heard with his own ears the whole cabin crew getting excited because some big star was about to board the plane—so much so that after the plane took off, the cabin crew took turns entering the first class cabin to serve (watch) the two of them.

Although Gu Zecheng had always known that Lin Zixi was a first-tier domestic young actor, this was the first time he had experienced for himself what exactly it was like to have a (cheap) son and a (dear) lover who was a big star.

Anyway, if Big Boss Gu was not a person who respected others’ works and liked others to have professional ethics, the fans who had squatted impatiently at S City’s airport since early in the morning would definitely not be able to wait for their idol.

After Lin Zixi, with difficulty, said goodbye to the fans who picked him up, he followed Gu Zecheng back to the home where he had lived for more than a month. Once the two of them finished washing their faces and rinsing their mouths, it was already past midnight.

At this time, although Dad Gu had quite the mood, he was still apprehensive about Lin Zixi who had been busy all day, so he just kissed him on the lips and turned off the light, wanting to simply sleep with him.

However, Lin Zixi, who was indeed a little tired, could not sleep.

Because the Gu family’s child, who had been living like a dream for the past two days, finally came to a realization in the dead of night—

Even if you ignore the fact that Gu Zecheng obviously wasn’t like a person who would accept father and son incest...

If his dad liked men, how did he come?!

  6. Tsk tsk tsk. Oh MC, the answer is simple, either experimenting or bisexuality. ML already said he had 3 relationships before him (that failed), so the answer is kinda obvious
