Chapter 179: Men Are Boys Until They Die (Double Monthly Votes Requested)

~17 min read 3,307 words

Human XP is diverse.

Bai Liang experienced one of them yesterday, but he never expected that this little kitten, the "Wall-Peeling Girl," was hiding quite a bit!

"Little Egg, are you for real?"

"Don't call me Little Egg!" Li Yitong said, feeling a bit shy and annoyed.

She always felt like she was being implied by this nickname, especially since she had just impulsively made that request.

"Didn't you ask me to curse you?" Bai Liang said helplessly.

I satisfied you, and now you're not satisfied? This young lady is a bit hard to serve!

Eh?

Now Bai Liang had successfully confused Li Yitong. She didn't like the nickname "Little Egg," and since Bai Liang said it like that, it really sounded like he was cursing her.

But... but... but this was different from what she had imagined in her head just now.

However, letting her "correct" Bai Liang was obviously too difficult.

This impulse came quickly and went quickly.

Li Yitong immediately felt extremely ashamed for saying such things just now!

She wished she could dig a three-bedroom apartment out of the ground with her toes.

Damn it, how could she say such things?

After holding it in for a long time, she could only say dejectedly: "You... you don't tell anyone!"

Bai Liang thought for a moment, "Little Kitten, you wouldn't want people to know..."

"You're doing it again! You said this before when I ate the wall peeling!" Li Yitong gritted her teeth; hearing this sentence made her feel like she was having a stress response.

She couldn't help but show her nails to Bai Liang, looking like she was about to pounce and scratch him.

She was becoming more and more like a little kitten.

When this young lady spoke normally, her voice was actually quite mature, even with a bit of a raspy, low-pitched feel, which wasn't particularly contrasting with her age.

But once her emotions were stirred, combined with her little kitten face and large crescent-like eyes, she inexplicably gave people a fuzzy feeling.

Bai Liang almost couldn't resist reaching out to scratch her chin.

Previously on the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," she actually almost never did this kind of coquettish act with Bai Liang, even when she was eating wall peeling.

But the frequency had skyrocketed recently to the point where it was a bit wrong...

"Alright, alright, I won't tell anyone. I've been keeping your little secrets for you all along; now it just counts as having a few more."

Bai Liang waved his hand indifferently, indicating that his mouth was very tight.

Li Yitong believed this, because Meng Jie still didn't know about her wall-peeling habit.

She had already secretly tested it out long ago.

She felt that if a man could keep secrets even in bed and not gossip about other people's affairs, his character was indeed quite solid.

However, thinking about it carefully, she felt something was not quite right.

When she returned to her hotel room and pondered it properly, she suddenly patted her own head.

Curled up on the sofa, with her legs clamping a pillow, she muttered to herself: "Li Yitong, calm down! That's someone else's bed..."

"Ding-dong~ Ding-dong~"

It started again!

She picked up her phone and saw Meng Jie and Yu Shuxin in that small group chat finding new photos from yesterday's Bulgari gala, having a heated discussion.

Li Yitong took the opportunity to complain a few times: "So annoying. It was clearly Li Qin who was stuck to Bai Liang, but I was the one who got cursed. At least she earned a brand friend title; I saw it was officially announced today. I just got a scolding, and nothing else."

As soon as these words came out, Meng Jie was hooked.

She stood up for her: "Isn't this just clout chasing? I could do it too! Sister Tong, you really should have gone to chase some clout; you happened to be free."

"I didn't dare. I was afraid of being harassed by your phone calls in the middle of the night, Meng Jie, and being cursed."

"How could that be? And even if you don't chase it, others will!"

Well said!

Meng Jie seemed to just say it casually, and the group soon started discussing how Bai Liang came up with the operation of throwing jewelry into champagne.

"The idol is worthy of being an idol; he's so stylish!"

Watching the group start to fawn again, Li Yitong suggested just asking him directly.

She took a screenshot and sent it to Bai Liang, and he answered quite quickly.

Bai Liang: "My hand slipped at the time."

That's right, this is the correct answer.

His super brain had actually crashed slightly at that moment; he hadn't had time to think of any good solution yet.

As a result, he didn't hold it steady, and the thing fell into the wine glass. He simply took advantage of the situation and picked up the wine glass...

It's just that his capybara nature made his expression very calm, so others couldn't tell.

Ah, it fell into the wine.

That works too.

This answer was a bit nonsensical, but Li Yitong believed it 100% because it was indeed this guy's style.

Then, she "darkly" didn't tell the other two in the group the answer, but instead participated in the discussion about Bai Liang and Lin Gengxin "joining forces" to curse anti-fans today.

Cursing people and gaining fans—this is also truly rare.

However, summarizing the comments online, one could actually see some answers.

The high-and-mighty idol just got his feet on the ground; it doesn't mean he's covered in mud.

Moreover, Bai Liang wasn't particularly cold-hearted to begin with; that was just the persona of certain characters in movies and dramas.

It hadn't been long since he "pressured" his fans, and some hardcore fans who paid close attention to him already knew what he was like.

So how could he lose fans?

They call this "being down-to-earth."

As for Lin Gengxin... this "dream of nine hundred million girls" is about the same. He never walked that high-end idol route; he's just a silly guy.

So when these two guys bickered with anti-fans, of course, their fans didn't decrease but increased.

It's just that this operation has some risks; ordinary traffic artists don't dare to do this.

Such a long and high-frequency, fast-typing online bickering—very few people can guarantee they won't say a single dirty word.

If not careful, it's easy to be caught by the handle and become black material.

If Yang Yang were to do this, he would definitely "collapse his image." After all, once you keep up a facade for too long, you can't put it down.

Oh right, Bai Liang and Lin Gengxin only used text output; they didn't live-stream giving the middle finger.

Nor did they lead the rhythm to cyberbully anyone.

Otherwise, who knows if Lin Gengxin's Weibo would really be banned for a while.

——

The next day, Bai Liang, who reappeared on the set of "Duckweed," enjoyed the treatment of a "hero's return."

So spirited! Didn't lose face! Well done!

Maybe because he recorded "Running Man" too much, Deng Chao clapped to welcome him with a look of surprise, and then added with a weird laugh: "Immortal, can you curse me twice?! My skin has been itching lately~"

What he said was a bit like Li Yitong's yesterday, but it actually meant something completely different.

One wanted to enjoy it, the other was purely being cheeky.

"If your skin is itching, usually physical action works better. Do you want to try, Brother Chao?"

"Hey, hey, hey, young man, you don't talk about martial arts. Don't come to Running Man in the future! If you come, I'll ask for leave and won't go."

"Your show isn't as interesting as the one next door, 'Go Fighting!'," Bai Liang commented objectively.

Reality shows are just playing house; "Running Man" is only fun when tearing name tags. If you really want to see fun, "Go Fighting!" is more exciting; after all, they "tear up the script" at every turn.

However, Deng Chao didn't break his defense but smiled mysteriously, "Oh, not interesting, right? Let's see if you come later."

This encrypted communication made Bai Liang not understand what it meant at first.

By the second time, he was too lazy to think about it~

Compared to the god-tier photos he took at Bulgari, his colleagues on set were obviously more interested in him and Lin Gengxin joining forces to curse people.

After all, god-tier photos of artists always pop up every once in a while.

But bickering with anti-fans is too rare.

However, Sister Zhao's angle of concern was different from others.

"That table of beautiful socialites, what's your relationship with them?"

Bai Liang read the gossip and teasing in her eyes, just like when she asked which "combination" Meng Jie belonged to before.

"Just old classmates~"

Sister Zhao rolled her eyes directly, indicating that she didn't believe a word of it.

Then she remembered something and exclaimed, "Little brother, you really have some skills! Daring to think and daring to act!"

She even gave him a thumbs up!

Bai Liang was confused, "What daring to think and daring to act?"

"Anyway, I still suggest you stay far away from Sun Yi." Sister Zhao shook her head while sighing. When she saw Li Yitong, she felt that Bai Liang might have some strange hobbies.

But when she saw the photo of Li Qin sticking close to him, she was sure that this kid definitely had a collection habit!

"Oh right, we have a kiss scene today! Remember to brush your teeth."

"Don't bluff me, where do we have a kiss scene? It's just a touch of the lips," Bai Liang said calmly.

"Even if it's just a touch of the lips, you have to brush your teeth. This is called respecting the opponent actor!" Sister Zhao taught him seriously.

"Then can I find a body double?" Before Sister Zhao raised her fist, Bai Liang decided to take back that sentence.

However, the kiss scene she mentioned was indeed exaggerated. The so-called kiss scene between the two was just a touch of the lips.

It wasn't as exciting as the "kiss scene" between Deng Chao and Gao Huayang.

Two men kissing!

But unlike the "stringy" one with Huang Jingyu, this was just artificial respiration.

But when that scene was filmed, it almost made Bai Liang laugh until he twitched.

Deng Chao, playing Xu Tailang, gave Liu Yi artificial respiration, but Gao Huayang couldn't hold it and hiccuped, and it all went into Deng Chao's mouth.

It was so flavorful!

Although it was just a lip-touching kiss scene, today's scene was quite important because it was a wedding.

Sister Zhao had never been married and had no experience.

But in the movie, there was no need for any experience.

But the problem was that Bai Liang had too much experience!

(This book is updated recently at ##!! update!)

So when filming, Han Han inexplicably felt something was not quite right.

After Bai Liang and Zhao Liying smacked their lips several times, our director was still not satisfied.

But with his professionalism, he couldn't quite put his finger on it for a while, frowning and closing himself off, doing performance art.

Finally, Bai Liang accidentally broke the point: "Do I need to act more green?"

"Yes! Yes! So..."

Just as Han Han wanted to shift the blame, Bai Liang added:

"It was you who said before filming that men mature instantly when they get married..."

He wouldn't take this blame; it was all directed by the director.

"Take it as me farting. Men are boys until they die."

Understanding the director's meaning when filming is the basic quality of an actor.

However, if you encounter a director who can't express it well, you have to rely on the actor's self-comprehension ability.

Hmm... Han Han is not suitable for using new actors. His movies must be matched with "old slickers" or natural performances.

This is a high-EQ way of saying it.

However, Bai Liang felt very strange acting in this scene himself. His age was of course consistent with the character, and what Han Han wanted was the feeling of pretending to be mature while being essentially green.

But in fact, for Bai Liang himself, it was the other way around...

Fortunately, "men are boys until they die" still has some gold content, especially for men who have never suffered much in their lives; they really are boys forever.

"In today's scene, you have a feeling of an old slicker pretending to be young~ I almost thought you had been married before."

Others didn't notice anything wrong, but Zhao Liying, who was closest to Bai Liang and acting directly with him, noticed it.

"Really?" Bai Liang played dumb directly.

"Just a little bit. Maybe it's because you men are quite strange; at eighteen and thirty-eight, sometimes the things you think about in your head are about the same."

"Sister, you are very knowledgeable~"

Sister Zhao rolled her eyes at him, playing with the ring on her finger, and even spread her hand out to admire it back and forth.

The ring was bought by Bai Liang; it wasn't expensive, just over a hundred yuan.

But Sister Zhao liked it very much and directly eliminated the ring prepared by the crew.

Now she didn't seem to have any intention of returning it to Bai Liang.

After admiring it for a while, she didn't forget to sigh: "Tsk, I can be considered a married woman now."

If it were usual, Bai Liang would definitely say: "As if you haven't been married in the dramas you filmed before."

Bickering with Zhao Xiaodao is quite interesting.

But this time he kept his mouth shut, just cooperating with the smile he was most accustomed to on weekdays.

A warm capybara~

Making the sister couldn't help but gently pull his face. Zhao Liying often did this action before, but this was the gentlest time.

"I'll accept the gift, and I'll give you a return gift later."

After saying this, she turned and left gracefully because she saw Li Yitong looking over here sneakily again.

While feeling a little emotional, she also found it a bit funny... Why is this little girl so afraid of her?

"Do you want to drink milk tea?"

As soon as Sister Zhao left, the little kitten poked her head out.

Honestly, Li Yitong is twenty-six, but because of that face that looks very young, doing these things doesn't feel out of place at all.

It feels like when she is in her thirties, she might be able to play in the "girly feeling" track with Yang Mi.

At this time, she was holding two cups of milk tea and issued a "seduction" to Bai Liang.

"Hey, you could have just bought one." Looking at the two cups of milk tea, Bai Liang sighed.

Li Yitong was a bit confused, "One for each person, I ran very far to buy them!"

"Pearl milk tea, right."

"How did you know?"

Bai Liang didn't explain, took a cup of milk tea from her hand, and finished more than half of it in a few gulps.

"Big water buffalo!" Li Yitong secretly complained, holding the milk tea and sipping it in small mouthfuls.

Bai Liang didn't speak either, just silently observing her.

After she finished all the pearls inside, sure enough, she didn't drink the remaining half cup.

At this time, Li Yitong also reacted, blinking her big eyes, "You knew?!"

"Derived from detailed observation in life."

"But I only drank milk tea twice on the set of 'Condor Heroes'..." Li Yitong's tone was a bit complicated.

"Once discovered, once confirmed, how could I not remember? You could just buy one, and we could share it. I don't have much interest in those little snacks in milk tea."

Bai Liang wasn't just uninterested; he detested it!

If you drink a beverage, drink a beverage; if you drink porridge, drink porridge. How can these two things be mixed together?

"The weather is getting colder; it's autumn." Li Yitong suddenly said this out of the blue.

Bai Liang was stunned. Ah? The meme of "the first cup of milk tea in autumn" already exists now?

However, she didn't intend to explain anything to him, took the milk tea, and flashed away. This was returning to the hotel.

Her supporting role scenes were finished before Bai Liang went to the Bulgari gala. At this moment, she was actually stubbornly staying on the set without leaving.

Of course, no one cared about this.

Even because Li Yitong didn't appear on the set much and spent most of her time in the hotel, many people thought she had left long ago.

Only Sister Zhao observed carefully and knew that this girl was actually still there.

But no matter how much she stayed, it was already autumn, and it wouldn't be long before winter, so she should leave anyway.

At this time, Bai Liang looked down and found that Li Yitong had taken his cup; there wasn't much milk tea left inside, and the rest were all pearls.

And the half cup of milk tea she had left was still sitting there.

Hmm... wasting food is indeed shameful.

On the other side, Li Yitong, who ran back to the hotel in one breath, felt her heart was about to jump out.

Opening the chat interface with Jin Cheng, she started cursing directly: "It's all your fault!"

Jin Cheng's reply speed was quite fast, and three question marks were thrown over.

However, before Li Yitong could say what happened, Jin Cheng suddenly reacted.

"Hehehe, I know. I heard you are on the set of 'Duckweed,' went to warm someone's bed? Is this to share your experience after using it?"

"Pfft! I just went to make a cameo! It's not as dirty as you think. Do you take me for you? In the hospital, it was so... outrageous!"

"I just took a few sips in the hospital; it wasn't very exaggerated."

Through the screen, Li Yitong felt like she could see the triumphant and shameless look on the other side.

What do you mean you just took a few sips? You know exactly where you took them from!

She threw a cursing emoji directly.

Jin Cheng: "Don't pretend with me. What did you do? I'm dying of anxiety! Tell me quickly!"

After hesitating for a moment, Li Yitong slowly told her about the milk tea.

Jin Cheng on the other side was speechless. They were all people of the world; why be so obscure?

Those who didn't know would think it was a campus romance.

This is so pure that it's not even a college student; only junior high or high school students play like this, right?

They are all adults; if you like him, reverse-push him! Sleeping with him isn't a loss!

A top-tier idol!

Anyway, the better Bai Liang does now, the more Jin Cheng feels she made a huge profit.

"Do you want to date him? Sister, wanting both is a bit greedy."

"I don't want to date him!" Li Yitong denied it decisively.

"Then that's it. Do what you have to do. You are a career-oriented woman; be decisive. Don't let me look down on you."

After sending this, Jin Cheng disappeared and didn't reply.

Originally, Li Yitong wanted to chat a few more words, but the other side started playing dead, leaving her with no choice.

Looking at the ticket information on her phone, she had to leave tomorrow.
