Chapter 130

  Do you have to observe so carefully?

  Under the host's expectant gaze, which shone with a "you won't leave this recording studio today if you don't answer" kind of light, Jian Yan was internally freaking out in various ways, but on the surface, he had to maintain his composure. So under the camera, all that could be seen was the black-haired young man bursting into laughter and revealing a very good-looking smile as he raised an eyebrow. He stretched out his hand and casually patted the man beside him: "To be honest, before coming to record this show today, this guy privately asked me how I would answer if I were asked about Xi De..."

  Jiang Chuan didn't seem to have expected Jian Ran to be so frank and slightly raised an eyebrow, giving him a sideways glance.

  At this time, the audience at the scene made a noise, and the host had been reminded before that Eastern people are more reserved when asking questions, so they should be subtle. At this moment, hearing Jian Ran's answer, he was slightly stunned, and he didn't expect that just as the recording of the show had begun, the black-haired young man in front of him would say such an explosive remark himself. So, he couldn't help but get more excited than before, stretching his neck and blinking his eyes, looking at the man sitting next to the black-haired young man who always seemed a bit silent: "Really? Did you ask, Mr. Reins?"

  Jiang Chuan stared at the host expressionlessly for three seconds, and on the fourth second, another unexpected situation occurred - at least in the eyes of domestic fans, a man who rarely showed a smile on his face, always appearing as a "cold-faced warm man", suddenly revealed a silly grin. He slightly curled up the corners of his lips, raised his hand to rub his eyebrows slightly, and replied in a helpless tone: "Yes, I asked."

  As soon as Jiang Chuan spoke, even Xide, who was originally sitting silently beside him, turned his head and raised an eyebrow to look at him. The audience on the scene cheered and screamed, as if praising the man for generously acknowledging that he was very kind.

  Supporter burst out laughing: "What kind of mentality are you in when asking this question?"

  Jiang Chuan straightened his body and suppressed his smile, reverting to a poker face: "Just asking casually."

  Host: "As if we'd believe you."

  The host was speaking while raising his hand to signal to the staff behind the scenes, and it seemed that they immediately understood what he meant. The next second, on the screen behind them, which originally only had the logo of the talk show program, suddenly changed. A video played: Behind a long table, a man in casual clothes stood tall, facing numerous microphones with various logos placed in front of him. He didn't appear flustered at all. The people on the screen were speaking Chinese, and one reporter asked: "Mr. Jiang Chuan, under normal circumstances, if it's not for publicity, what kind of mentality would a newly debuted star have to quarrel with another star they're not familiar with and major media outlets?"

  As soon as the question was asked, even those sitting in front of the screen could feel the atmosphere in that space at that time fall into an awkward silence. He blinked his eyes and seemed to immediately understand what was being played on that video segment. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be shy or moved, and he showed a helpless smile, raising both hands to cover his face. The man sitting next to him, however, slightly turned his body to the side, continuing to watch himself on the screen with an expressionless face.

  When facing reporters' questions, Jiang Chuan was as mature and calm as he is now, only to see him slightly straighten his waist, then lower his eyes and answer in a cold and polite low voice.

  Who says we don't know each other?

  ……

  I have been chasing after Yuan Jinyan for a long time.

  The video ends here, and the large screen is frozen on the man's face with his eyes half-closed, his long and thick eyelashes covering the emotions in his bright blue eyes. From the angle of the video, it perfectly presents the most perfect angle of his face - throughout the conversation process below, there are English subtitles, so this directly led to when Jiang Chuan finished speaking his last sentence, the entire recording scene of the talk show was pushed to an unprecedented climax!

  The program had just begun, and the audience was already stomping their feet, screaming, cheering, and applauding. Amidst the cacophony of catcalls, the man calmly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head, and glanced at the young black-haired man who was covering his face like a cooked shrimp and crouching on the sofa. He smiled, reached out to pull his wrist, and leaned in to say in a voice that was just loud enough for those around them to hear: "I'm the one confessing, why are you being shy?"

  From the second camera angle on the scene, you can see that the man slightly bends down, with a smile-like expression on his face, leaning close to Jingyan.

  The screams on the scene became even louder than before.

  The host had laughed so hard that he slid down from his seat, and with a flourish of the topic card in his hand, pretended to throw it into the trash can: "This episode of the show really doesn't need to be recorded anymore, we've already gotten what we wanted most - let this moment last forever!"

  The crowd burst into laughter, and it wasn't until ten seconds later that the scene was slightly brought under control. The host sat back in his seat and asked, "So, are you two together?"

  "May I stop recording now?"

  The man sitting next to him turned his head and looked at him: "Not yet, but I believe it may be soon."

  Host: "Look at the expressions on both of your faces, it seems our program can transform from a talk show to a matchmaking show. Okay, let's get back to some normal topics and chat about movies. In the movie, Mr. Reins plays the role of Vice Admiral Raymond, like a professional nanny, working hard to raise Second Master Lando - and also being labeled with wanting to usurp the throne, kill Lando himself and seize the fleet?"

  Giang Chuan: "Yes, in fact, according to the script, if Raymond wanted to do something to Lando, he would have done it already, and there's no need for Lando to resist."

  The host sprayed the mic: "Actually, this sentence sounds a bit terrible when heard alone."

  Jiang Chuan smiled: "Let's see how you understand."

  He hastily interjected, "Actually, it's not entirely like that. In fact, Lando is also an irreplaceable navigation genius, and there have been many times when he relied on his talent to get the fleet out of danger. Although people don't think these things are the result of his efforts, including later when he single-handedly created a pirate ship to save the fleet by running it aground, I think this is where the highlight of this character lies."

  Jiang Chuan: "Later on, wasn't it Raymond who also boarded the pirate ship to rescue him? Do you think Lando could survive for three days under the pirate captain's torture by himself?"

  "What's wrong with this? I have hands and feet..."

  Gang Huan maintained an expression that was neither affirmative nor negative as he looked at Jian Ran. At this time, Director Peter said beside him: "Look, this is why we chose the actors like this - under normal circumstances, Lando and Raymond would have a conversation just like this, with completely consistent expressions, it's simply an authentic performance."

  Everyone burst out laughing again, and the host cleared his throat: "With such a base tone, it's not easy for the heroine."

  Peter: "So there is no heroine in this movie."

  Host: “………”

  Host: "Let's move on to the next question - about the third male lead, pirate captain Dill, in this movie. What surprised everyone was that after our heavenly voice, Xi De, shook off his illness last year, he seemed to have unlocked a new talent. This young man, who could clearly make a living just by looking good, first relied on his great voice to punch and kick his way into the music scene, and recently even boldly entered Hollywood..."

  The camera shook and stayed on Shide's body, the red-haired boy was empty for three seconds - although it was only a few seconds, but in fact, if such a pause appeared during the recording process, it would be very obvious. People subconsciously followed Shide's gaze at this time, and finally they found that their own gaze stayed on Jianran's body.

  "Oh my god, I think our show today is really going to be bad." The host was laughing so hard that the hat on his head fell off, "Xiao Wangzi, may I ask boldly, what do you think Ran is doing?"

  The red-haired young man sitting on the sofa rolled his eyes and replied lazily, "I'm answering your question."

  "What?"

  Xide's English is still very fluent, he doesn't need a translator at all, and he continues to talk: "I suddenly thought of filming, of course it was because of Ran, after waking up I heard that there was an actor who fell into a coma due to an accident just like me in Tian/Chao, I think this is what they call 'fate' - ah, the meaning of this sentence is that as long as two people are destined to meet, no matter what, they will meet."

  At this time, he said while turning his head, using those beautiful amber pupils to look at Jian Ran, and slowly said: "Moreover, when it comes to being justified, Reins may not be more reasonable than me."

  Jiang Chuan: "What's going on?"

  "Thus:"

  Xide's words were naturally understood by no one except him and Jinran, and in fact, he seemed to be doing it on purpose. After finishing the sentence, the young man suddenly showed a mischievous expression, winked at Jinran, and leaned against him: "You said so, right?"

  His lips twitched slightly and he said neither "yes" nor "no".

  The rest of the interview was conducted in a chaotic manner, and Jian Ran was even forced to perform a live version of "Pirate's Life" with Xi De on the spot. It can be seen that this song is also very popular abroad, and when it reached the high-pitched part, most of the audience present could sing along. After finishing the song, Jian Ran was already drenched in sweat, and he didn't know whether it was due to nervousness or some other reason. After sitting back down in his chair, he let out a long sigh.

  Interviews can be really exhausting and take a toll on one's life.

  When the whole program ended, the host politely expressed his gratitude to everyone in the crew and looked forward to seeing "Leviathan" in the cinema next year. At the moment when the music of the end of the program sounded, Jian felt that half of his foot had already stepped out of a certain forbidden cabinet.

  It's simply unimaginable what kind of huge stir it will cause once the program is broadcast and spreads domestically.

  ……

  All the way, he felt that something was not quite right. He returned to the hotel, put down his things and went straight to Jiang Chuan's room without saying a word. The latter opened the door and let him in, but unexpectedly, the young man with black hair rushed into his arms: "Did you take the wrong medicine tonight?"

  Jiang Chuan pinched the chin of the person in his arms with two fingers, and the two of them stumbled backward, entwined together - until Jiang Chuan exerted some force and pressed the man directly onto the bed: "Saying something so obvious on a talk show, and even saying 'we're almost there'..."

  Jiang Chuan slightly raised his chin, and the tip of his nose touched the black-haired young man who was pressing down on him: "What? Angry?"

  "Wait a minute... it's just... strange that you suddenly..."

  The words hadn't been spoken yet, when suddenly he was pressed down at the waist, and then a whirlwind of movement, the two people on the bed swapped positions, Jian Ran being firmly pinned under Jiang Chuan's body. The latter had one hand propped up beside his head, slightly pressing down with his body, his face expressionless as he said: "Your doubts have been resolved, now it's my turn."

  Jian Ran: "......?"

  Jiang Chuan: "What did Xide mean by that?"

  "...To put it simply, if I were to say that I am Hamster Ah Fei, then according to the storyline of the story, one day Master Jiang Chuan bought a wife for Ah Fei, a hamster named Xiao Hei..."

  Jiang Chuan: “......”

  Xide is Xiao Hei, at that time it spoke with a translator's tone, how annoying.

  After saying this, his pants were pulled down.

  Then he got off scot-free.

  To put it in Jiang Chuan's words, it is a "lack of education".

  Although in his opinion he had merely stated a great truth, nothing more.
