Chapter 48#
“Devoted Movie King”(2)#
Lu Yi obviously also realized the ambiguity of his words: “I didn’t mean that. In fact, both of us are victims.”
He paused and said: “You were just inside and didn’t see. The guest in 409 was just surrounded by a bunch of media, and the guest in 409 is He Xiao.”
The man who looked somewhat similar to Lu Xingchen repeated doubtfully: “He Xiao? Who is that?”
Lu Yi looked at him in surprise: “You don’t know He Xiao? The newly rising national little brother, he’s on all the headlines of entertainment news now. By the way, he played Luo Bing in ‘XX Era’.”
Now He Xiao is at the height of his popularity. He became famous through TV dramas. Compared to movie actors with higher status and starting points, TV drama actors are more approachable and have higher audience recognition.
Even people not in the entertainment circle, when they see He Xiao, will say, that’s that so-and-so from ‘XX Era’.
Kong Si continued: “Haven’t seen it, haven’t heard of it.”
How would he know who He Xiao is? Besides, he doesn’t watch TV dramas and has no idea what XX Era is.
Lu Yi tried hard to dig into Lu Xingchen’s memory and found that so far, there was no one named Kong Si in Lu Xingchen’s memory.
But if his deduction was not wrong, the man in front of him was the future Movie King Kong Si who would be with He Xiao.
He asked the other: “I’m Lu Xingchen, what’s your name?”
Kong Si looked at this face that was quite similar to his own and answered with complicated feelings: “Kong Si.”
That was the person He Xiao liked, and the future partner was correct.
Lu Yi thought to himself, although he was unlucky enough to become an eighteenth-tier little star from an ordinary family and lost his virginity on the first day he arrived, he successfully snatched away He Xiao’s future partner, which could be considered half a success.
“I didn’t mean to interrogate you. Yesterday, I originally wanted to fight for a role, but I was forced to drink alcohol, and the alcohol was laced with something. I was helped to a room that wasn’t mine. When someone opened the door, I used all my strength to run out.”
He recalled the situation before: “At that time, I just happened to see this door being opened, so I rushed in, then locked the door. After that, I completely blacked out. I just thought, maybe I would still remember clearly what happened then.”
Kong Si said with a slightly unfriendly tone: “I was drunk at the time, opened the door, went into the bathroom to vomit, then remembered I hadn’t closed the door yet. When I was about to lock it, I was pounced on by a lunatic.”
Although his sexual orientation was also male, he had always been clean and self-disciplined. Drunken one-night stands should never have happened to him, and the damn thing was that he was the one being bottom.
If, if it weren’t for the fact that he really couldn’t bring himself to hit a face similar to his own, he would have punched this man long ago.
Lu Yi took a deep breath and then said: “This can be considered a kind of fate. I will definitely take responsibility for what I’ve done.”
Kong Si’s tone was a bit broken, and he fired off questions like a machine gun: “Who asked you to take responsibility? What do you mean by fate? How about you let me be the top and see?”
Lu Yi retorted: “Fate is that I rushed out and then came to this room. At the right time, at the right place, you appeared in my life, and then…”
He didn’t finish the rest of the sentence; anyway, both of them knew it in their hearts: “Besides, you cooperated too, didn’t you? I didn’t exactly force you.”
Drunken hookups are based on both parties being active. Although he was drugged at the time, his strength wasn’t particularly great, so the other party must have enjoyed it too.
He softened his tone: “Look, my name is Lu Yi, not Lu Ling. Since my parents gave me this name, I have to live up to it. If you don’t want me to take responsibility, that’s fine too…”
Hearing that Lu Yi didn’t want to take responsibility, Kong Si became even more unhappy: “What about the promised responsibility? And didn’t you just say your name was Lu Xingchen? Why did it suddenly change to Lu Yi?”
Lu Yi explained: “My stage name is Lu Xingchen, because the company said my real name was too ordinary and hard to remember. Most artists change their names after debuting. My real name is Lu Yi, land Lu, the one in one and zero.”
“If you don’t believe me, I can go get my ID card.”
“No need. You should be an artist with little fame, right?” Probably because he was in a bad mood, Kong Si didn’t mince words.
Lu Yi said very calmly: “Yes, I have no fame now. I’m just an eighteenth-tier little artist.”
At the original body’s peak of popularity, he slept with the trending star He Xiao, and then became infamous.
“Then do you have money?”
Lu Yi looked at the clothes on himself, thought about the original owner’s income: “I only have five thousand in savings. If you want, I can give it all to you.”
Kong Si couldn’t help rolling his eyes, but he was good-looking, so rolling his eyes looked quite cute: “Then how do you plan to take responsibility for me? Sell your body or sell a kidney?”
Lu Yi said seriously: “I plan to quit the entertainment industry and develop a side business. I’ll have money soon. I can support you and take responsibility for you.”
Because of family education, Lu Yi didn’t really support premarital sex. As for Yu Ke, it goes without saying, it happened on the wedding day.
Thinking of Yu Ke, Lu Yi’s eyes dimmed a bit, but looking at the Kong Si in front of him, he perked up again. This was the first person he had slept with in over twenty years, and also the first that the original owner had slept with.
He was a responsible person. No matter the reason, if he did something like sleeping with someone, he had to take the responsibility he should.
Kong Si was probably naturally attracted to men, because if a straight man had this kind of thing happen, he would feel disgusted and collapse immediately, but Kong Si didn’t. He was just troubled by the accident and the position.
If the other party needed him to take emotional responsibility, he would try hard, accept and fall in love with the other.
If the other party didn’t need him to take emotional responsibility, then he would make some financial compensation. If the other party felt that this was just an accident and giving money was an insult, he would choose to apologize politely and then exit the other’s life.
Kong Si felt that this man named Lu Yi in front of him was simply hilarious. It was just a one-night stand: “Nowadays, who still cares about this…”
His latter half of the sentence faded away under Lu Yi’s serious gaze: “Are you serious? Not joking?” Actually, he really did care about this, because last night had also been his first time.
“I’m serious.”
Kong Si’s nonchalant tone suddenly turned serious: “But we hadn’t known each other before. You don’t even know who I am or what personality I have, yet you say you want to take responsibility for me. Do you know what responsibility means? In ancient times, in this situation, if you slept with someone, you had to get married.”
“Then let’s get married.” Lu Yi said seriously.
“You said it, don’t regret it!” Although he had a face of serene beauty, Kong Si’s temper was really not good.
Lu Yi said very seriously: “I won’t regret it.”
Eight hours later, at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the staff member handling marriage certificates said: “Brothers with blood relations cannot get married.”
“Who has blood relations? I’m surnamed Kong, he’s surnamed Lu. My mom only gave birth to me. Does the law nowadays forbid finding someone who looks like yourself?”
The staff member said again: “Then let’s do a check first. It will be quick.”
Kong Si said: “We checked before coming.”
He mainly checked the health condition of the two people to make sure neither had any infectious diseases, and also did a DNA comparison, which was expedited through an acquaintance.
The staff member looked at Kong Si, then at Lu Yi, and stamped the little red book.
When they came out with the little red book, Kong Si glanced at the man beside him, then at the photo of the two of them. He thought to himself, he must be crazy.
