A Contractual Marriage with the Best Leading Actor Chapter 105
Engagement Banquet (2)
Bai Qi immediately continued, “Xi-laoshi, a handsome man.” However, this time, he added one word behind it. “Mine.”
Today, the audience in the bullet comments had been choked to death by all the dog food, so they numbly typed:
【Bai Qi, a beautiful lady, Xi Chengyun’s】
The host choked on his own words. He never thought that Bai Qi would be able to turn his trap into a chance for them to display their love…
The host laughed awkwardly and said, “En, alright then. So, if Xi-laoshi were to participate in romance movies in the future, would you allow him to do so?”
“Of course.” Bai Qi seemed to be really understanding.
“Do you not mind if there’re intimate scenes?” the host asked.
To be fair, Bai Qi wasn’t too sure how to answer this question.
If he were to say that he didn’t mind, he’d seemed a little too unconcerned.
But if he were to say that he cared, then he wouldn’t be considered a perfect wife! How frustrating.
Xi Chengyun answered the question in a low voice, “There are many artistic films out there, and not all of them are merely about love.”
At this moment, Xi Chengyun’s brain was split in half again. Half of his brain was still in a daze after Bai Qi kissed him, while the other half was awake and knew that Bai Qi was good at putting up an act, but not answering such questions.
Xi Chengyun calmly glanced at the host.
The host immediately understood that this was all for today.
However, they couldn’t end the broadcast so abruptly.
So, the host asked one last question. “Alright, we hear Xi-laoshi loud and clear, don’t we? Mn, so lastly... everyone wants to know, after ‘The Perfectly Wedded Pair’, will we still get to see Bai Qi on screen? Will Xi-laoshi bring him along?”
“If there are any attractive openings,” Xi Chengyun replied.
After that, the host stood up and clapped. He then continued with a line of formalities, “Great, then we shall look forward to episode 4 of the show. All our friends who are watching, please give us a thumbs up ~ Thank you Xi-laoshi and Bai Qi...”
Soon after, the exit BGM played.
“Goodbye!” the audience who were there live shouted, reluctant to see them go.
Xi Chengyun offered his hand to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi paused for a second before holding his hand and slowly followed Xi Chengyun off the stage.
The audience hadn’t had enough. The bullet comments were filled with comments like【Ahh, please don’t go】.
This interview had already gone viral before its editing and official release on the platform.
Bai Qi and Xi Chengyun appeared on Hot Search again.
Once again, a long discussion appeared in the forum.
There was a notable increase in shippers this time round.
【HAHAHAHA, I never would’ve thought that I’d shipped a CP like this one】
【Shipping married couple is the best. No matter what, you can be rest assured that they are real. You wouldn’t be hurt by them because they’ll only do adorable things together!】
【I’m flabbergasted, and I’ve repeated this so many times, but I want to thank Bai Qi for showing us a more interesting and charming side of Xi-laoshi】
Through ‘The Perfectly Married Pair’, people got to know what a charming person Bai Qi was, and how enviable Xi Chengyun was with such a pampered little wife.
However, through this interview, everyone could get the sweetness between this couple.
Backstage, Bai Qi had finally taken all the makeup off.
The makeup artist was staring so hard that his eyes were about to pop out from their sockets.
“Are you done?” Xi Chengyun turned around to ask.
The makeup artist instantly changed his expression and said, “D.. done.”
Xi Chengyun asked A-Da to fetch him a disposable facial cloth. He wet the towel and carefully wiped Bai Qi’s face one more time.
The fake smile on the makeup artist’s face was on the verge of coming apart.
‘... So, they are actually so intimate, even off-camera?’
“Mn, let’s go.” Xi Chengyun threw the facial cloth into the dustbin, hooked Bai Qi by his waist, and plucked him from his chair.
They both soon disappeared from the makeup artist’s field of vision.
It was nighttime.
Bai Qi asked, “Where are we going?”
“Jiang Fangcheng’s engagement banquet… Should we go?”
“Let’s go,” Bai Qi promptly decided.
Xi Chengyun took a glance at him. “You need not worry about Han Si. She’s a very smart girl who knows what she wants.”
If not, the outcome might’ve been different. Xi Chengyun knew that the Han family actually wanted her to marry himself and they were indifferent to whether he liked Han Si, they only cared about the power he had.
Bai Qi nodded after a short pause.
Xi Chengyun raised the partition between the front and back rows to ensure the people in front couldn’t hear what they were saying.
He then said, “I’ll be able to get what I want soon and the Jiang family will realize that they have nothing on me. They might come up with ridiculous ways to attack me… this includes spreading rumors about the fact that you are my younger brother’s boyfriend.”
“So… we are attending their engagement banquet to ensure that by then, Jiang Fangcheng would have no room to talk?” Bai Qi asked.
“Well, unless Jiang Fangcheng can impress me a little today by being a man for once and having a fall out with me.”
If Jiang Fangcheng were to hold back once more, he’d have no chance to argue in the future.
Bai Qi couldn’t help but be at a loss for words.
‘Xi-laoshi truly has the means to be cunning!’
Just as Bai Qi ended that train of thought, he felt a weight in his hand.
Xi Chengyun had placed an exquisite box in his hand.
“What is this?”
“The pen.”
Bai Qi opened the box. Lo-and-behold, it was the pen that Xi Chengyun had mentioned.
“You have to accept it, we can’t give away our act.” Xi Chengyun took out the pen and clipped it on Bai Qi’s chest. He smiled and gently smoothed out the creases on Bai Qi’s clothes. “You look like a little gentleman.”
Bai Qi wasn’t sure why he’d feel his ears burning up whenever Xi Chengyun said something today. Xi Chengyun’s tone hadn’t changed very much at all.
Xi Chengyun remained silent after that.
