Chapter 491: What If the Moon Chases You? (6,000-character update!)

"Where did you go to mess around with flowers and grass again?"

"What messing around with flowers and grass? It was a matter of mutual consent, but I don't know what happened. We agreed it was just for fun, and everything was fine at the beginning, but later she wouldn't admit it," Li Zhibai said, looking very irritable.

Lu Yan He: "..."

Li Zhibai: "Sigh, you who found true love early don't understand the troubles of a single dog like me."

Lu Yan He said "uh" and asked: "Could it be that you haven't met someone you like?"

"Just like that," Li Zhibai said. "Nothing I like very much."

Lu Yan He knew that although Li Zhibai had always been single, he hadn't been as chaste as a monk in a temple.

Before, Lu Yan He and Yan Liang were worried that if Li Zhibai always slept with different women and it was exposed, it would be easy to have problems.

After all, he was a public figure.

Later, knowing Li Zhibai's consistent style, they weren't worried anymore—this guy Li Zhibai looked unreliable, but his upbringing was not bad. He never messed around, never lied, and said everything upfront. As he said himself, it was a matter of mutual consent.

Lu Yan He and Yan Liang didn't ask anymore.

However, if you walk by the water often, how can you not get your shoes wet?

Li Zhibai would encounter people pestering him from time to time.

Just like now.

Lu Yan He never asked much.

But Li Zhibai didn't know what was going on. He didn't usually talk to them about this aspect, but today he suddenly opened the chatterbox and babbled for a whole meal.

After listening, Lu Yan He was stunned.

This person pestering him was actually Ji Miao, who acted with Li Zhibai in *Even Death Won't Do*.

Young men and women, spending time together on a set, both single, and acting as a couple who chase and hide, naturally, it was like thunder and fire, easy to split wood and burn.

At the beginning, Li Zhibai made it very clear to Ji Miao that he had no interest in maintaining a fixed relationship; in other words, he didn't want a fixed girlfriend at this stage.

As for Ji Miao, she agreed at first, but later, when the movie was about to wrap up, she changed her mind.

Just like the plots in the movies, she suddenly started chasing him hard, insisting on dating him.

"Tell me, why bother?" Li Zhibai said irritably. "It's not like there are no men who like her; she has to pester me, and I don't want to date."

"Wait, you don't want to date?" Lu Yan He looked at Li Zhibai in surprise. "Why don't you want to date?"

"How would I know? I just don't want to date right now," Li Zhibai said.

Lu Yan He: "..."

Li Zhibai continued: "Of course, fortunately, she isn't as crazy as Meng Li."

Lu Yan He: "I haven't had much contact with Ji Miao, so I don't know her very well, but you too... you can't help but harm the actresses you act with."

"Damn, how did I harm her? What era is this? Why did it become me harming her because of the two of us?" Li Zhibai exploded.

Lu Yan He: "Forget it, is that what I meant by harm?"

Li Zhibai: "Then what do you mean?"

"I mean, don't flirt with the people around you," Lu Yan He said. "Even a rabbit doesn't eat the grass by its nest."

"Forget it, then why don't you say 'the near water tower gets the moon first'?" Li Zhibai retorted.

"Now it's good, this moon is chasing you, what are you going to do?"

"If I knew what to do, I wouldn't be complaining to you," Li Zhibai said with disdain. "Complaining to you is really useless."

Lu Yan He: "For this matter, it's useless to complain to anyone. Oh, you can also ask your agent to solve this matter."

"Forget it," Li Zhibai looked at him speechlessly. "Asking an agent to solve a small matter, do you think I'm Ma Zhiyuan?"

"Ma Zhiyuan is already a father, you can't compare."

"Get lost, get lost, get lost."

Knowing about Li Zhibai and Ji Miao, Lu Yan He couldn't help but worry about Li Zhibai.

When Lu Yan He chatted with Yan Liang, he mentioned this matter.

Yan Liang: "He really can't control himself at all."

"It would be funny if one day he also became a father," Lu Yan He complained. "I didn't say that in front of him, afraid of stimulating him."

"He wouldn't, right? Doesn't he have this bit of safety awareness?"

"Wearing a condom isn't 100% safe either," Lu Yan He said. "Really, Yan Liang, it's not that I'm alarmist. If one day someone holds a child and comes to find Li Zhibai, telling him he's a father, I wouldn't feel strange at all."

Yan Liang: "You're exaggerating. Li Zhibai is much more reliable than Ma Zhiyuan. Even if this really happened one day, he would definitely take responsibility, unlike that bastard Ma Zhiyuan."

Lu Yan He: "Tsk tsk, won't we also become godfathers at a young age?"

"Possible," Yan Liang nodded seriously.

"Sigh," Lu Yan He sighed.

He came back to his senses and thought, why did he suddenly start worrying about this at a young age?

Worrying for nothing.

Lu Yan He exhaled and let himself stop thinking about these things.

The day of the Lingyun Awards ceremony was already the beginning of December.

The first snow had already fallen.

Once it starts snowing in the north, the temperature really drops.

However, on the red carpet, almost no female star would choose to wear a thick dress.

Actually, male stars are about the same. But they

are still a bit better, only wearing shirts inside and suit jackets outside, unlike female stars, who have many parts directly exposed to the cold air, interpreting what is called "beautifully freezing" with their bodies.

Lu Yan He was also shivering with cold.

His dress was sponsored by an endorsement brand, and it was a proper, never-before-publicized new model for next spring, the so-called "global first wear." However, this "global first wear," which would be exclaimed by countless fashion people, made Lu Yan He walk on the red carpet with both hands in his pants pockets, not even wanting to greet the media.

"Do you have anything to say about this Lingyun Awards?" the red carpet host asked Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He said bluntly: "Set the red carpet indoors next time, it's too cold."

After entering the venue, Lu Yan He finally let out a long sigh of relief.

The heating was very sufficient.

He felt as if he had been taken out of a frozen state.

Before he could come back to his senses, Ji Miao walked towards him.

She asked: "Yan He, didn't Li Zhibai come with you?"

"No," Lu Yan He looked at her in surprise and said: "He didn't come with me. Hasn't he entered yet?"

Ji Miao shook her head and said: "I haven't seen him yet."

Lu Yan He nodded, pretending that he didn't know what happened between her and Li Zhibai, and said: "Then he might not have entered yet."

Lu Yan He was in a hurry to leave, but Ji Miao stopped him.

"Li Zhibai..." Ji Miao stammered, "You have a good relationship with him, you should know his relationship status, right? Is he single?"

Lu Yan He looked at Ji Miao in surprise.

"You—"

Ji Miao said: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just asking. My agent told me that maybe before the movie we acted in together is released, they will hype our CP to promote the movie, so I'm asking."

Trying to cover up.

However, if Li Zhibai hadn't told him about this in advance, Lu Yan He would have really believed it.

In this industry, hyping CP is not uncommon.

Especially when there is a work to promote, if a pair of actors act as a couple in the show, it is highly likely that they will hype CP, which is the best opportunity for exposure.

Lu Yan He said: "He should be single. He's been busy lately, I haven't talked to him much, I don't know very well, you might have to ask him yourself."

Ji Miao nodded.

"Wish you win an award tonight and get what you want," finally, Ji Miao still wished him well.

"Thank you," Lu Yan He nodded.

Li Zhibai and Ji Miao were both invited to be award presenters tonight.

Their seats were very close, separated only by Lang Xia.

Lu Yan He sat in front of them.

Because he was afraid that his expression would reveal the truth, Lu Yan He didn't dare to turn back to chat with Li Zhibai, afraid that he would see Ji Miao with his peripheral vision, meet her gaze, and not be able to control his expression.

But Lang Xia misunderstood this situation.

He whispered to Li Zhibai: "What's wrong with you and Yan He? Why aren't you talking?"

Li Zhibai looked at Lang Xia in surprise and asked: "Why should I talk to him?"

Lang Xia: "... Aren't you two very close?"

"Do we have to talk all the time if we are close?" Li Zhibai looked at Lang Xia with full confusion.

Crossing him, Ji Miao was looking straight ahead, not looking at him at all.

Li Zhibai was a bit surprised by her performance.

Originally, Li Zhibai was a bit worried that Ji Miao would turn her head to look at him from time to time.

There were cameras everywhere on the scene, and if some ambiguous photos were taken by some people, some inexplicable scandals might spread.

Of course, not many people actually paid attention to them on the scene.

_￠o

What everyone paid most attention to was the nominees who were truly competing for awards tonight.

The emergence of each round of winners meant the rise of some of them.

Of course, some already had high status and didn't need to rise again.

Just as many people guessed, the strength of the nominees this time was too strong, and in several major awards, there were basically no winners overlapping with the Feihong Awards.

Including the Best Screenplay Award, the popular work *The Seventh Record of Floating Life* was defeated by *Nine Yin*.

The young actress Li Shiyi, who won Best Supporting Actress at the Feihong Awards, also lost to middle-aged actress Zhang Bian this time.

Huang Kai was still sitting next to Lu Yan He this time.

He whispered in Lu Yan He's ear: "This feeling of knowing that it definitely has nothing to do with me today is too relaxed."

Lu Yan He squinted at him and said speechlessly: "Shut up."

Huang Kai laughed and asked: "Are you particularly nervous now?"

"Nonsense, asking what you know," Lu Yan He complained.

Huang Kai: "I have a premonition that you will win an award this time."

Lu Yan He: "Don't jinx me, who knows."

Huang Kai: "Really."

Twenty minutes later, Huang Kai clapped awkwardly, watching Zhou Yuning from *Nine Yin* go on stage, unable to hide his excitement and thrill, holding the trophy tightly, not even daring to look at Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He clapped regretfully, restraining his uncontrollable disappointment.

Suddenly, two hands reached out from behind, pressed on both sides of his head, and rubbed.

Lu Yan He turned back.

Li Zhibai smiled at him.

Sometimes, Lu Yan He would also doubt himself, is he really that amazing?

Come on, he is a genius actor who transmigrated here. Shouldn't the script he got be to win all the major awards in the world in the first three days after transmigrating, and become a big shot who crushes all major entertainment circles in the world?

Lu Yan He teased himself in his mind, laughing to relieve his frustration.

After the Lingyun Awards ceremony ended, Li Zhibai accompanied Lu Yan He through the crowd, preparing to go back.

On the way, many people comforted him.

Lu Yan He waved his hand with a smile, having to pretend that he didn't care about the result at this time.

At the entrance, too many media were waiting for them.

Lu Yan He and Li Zhibai wanted to bypass them directly. However, as soon as they saw him, they immediately chased after them, not giving them any chance to escape.

The questions they asked were still the old questions.

Lu Yan He hadn't even answered yet, and Li Zhibai was already disgusted.

"Oh my, find some new questions to ask. Asking these things over and over, the audience's ears are calloused," Li Zhibai waved his hand in disgust. "You guys are really something, whoever wins the award, go block them, why do you have to block Yan He?"

After finally breaking out of the encirclement of reporters, Li Zhibai said to Lu Yan He: "These media reporters really don't think it's a big deal to watch the fun, they just want to hear a few words of dissatisfaction with tonight's result from your mouth."

For an awards ceremony, the most attention-grabbing news is usually a nominee bombarding the results afterwards.

Lu Yan He: "I'm not a fool, how could I say such things."

Li Zhibai laughed, "There are many fools, don't you often see people bombarding?"

Lu Yan He: "My role in *Road to Glory* is awkward, everyone says I should have reported for Best Supporting Actor."

"You don't lack Best Supporting Actor, this is clearly a role that can be reported for Best Actor, why report for Supporting Actor," Li Zhibai said. "If you didn't win, you didn't win. At least it's a nomination. How many people are jealous of your nomination? Others don't even have hope of being nominated."

Just at this time, Li Zhibai's phone rang.

He picked it up and looked.

Lu Yan He didn't look intentionally, but caught the name Ji Miao with his peripheral vision.

It turned out to be a call from Ji Miao.

Li Zhibai picked up the phone and looked, his brows immediately wrinkled.

Lu Yan He moved his gaze away, pretending not to see.

"Hello?" Li Zhibai answered the phone. I don't know what was said on the other side, Li Zhibai said, "I'm with Yan He now, no time."

He added: "No time tomorrow either."

Lu Yan He silently turned his head to the other side.

Ji Miao hung up the phone angrily.

She took the coat from her assistant and covered herself.

"Ji Miao, are you going to Xu Yiren's party later?" Lang Xia asked when he saw her.

"Not going," Ji Miao replied with a dark face and no expression, brushing past Lang Xia.

Lang Xia looked at Ji Miao's back in surprise and asked his assistant: "What's wrong with her? She wasn't nominated today either, surely she wouldn't be unhappy because she didn't win an award?"

Assistant: "Maybe she's unhappy because she wasn't nominated."

Lang Xia: "... Then she really has a problem."

Seeing Ji Miao get into the car angrily, Yin Lufei sighed in her heart.

However, it is almost inevitable for Ji Miao to encounter such things at such an age.

When Ji Miao wanted to film Liu Bige's movie with Li Zhibai, Yin Lufei had such worries.

After all, Li Zhibai's news in this regard is not small.

In all fairness, he is indeed a person who is very popular with girls. Especially girls of his age.

At this age, most girls will be moved when they see someone like Li Zhibai.

Yin Lufei asked Ji Miao: "Li Zhibai still refuses to see you?"

Ji Miao: "He keeps hiding from me."

"You are chasing so hard, of course he will hide from you," Yin Lufei said. "Girls should be more reserved."

Ji Miao said impatiently: "What era is this."

Yin Lufei: "This has nothing to do with the era, any man prefers a more reserved girl."

Ji Miao: "I haven't seen Chen Siqi be very reserved, doesn't Lu Yan He love her as if there is no second woman in this world."

"Then how do you know whether Chen Siqi was reserved or not when she first met Lu Yan He?" Yin Lufei said. "Besides, look at Li Zhibai's situation, just like what you encountered. Think about it, those men who show great diligence to you, do you pay attention to them? Aren't you also spinning around Li Zhibai who ignores you?"

Yin Lufei's words pierced Ji Miao's heart like a sharp sword.

Ji Miao: "..."

Yin Lufei: "I still advise you, Ji Miao, don't hang yourself on one tree. It's not illegal to like him, but if you keep pestering him, not only will he be annoyed, but your posture is also not good-looking, right?"

Ji Miao: "How did I pester him? Did I block his door or hire a private detective to chase him? I like him, I call him and send him text messages, is that pestering?"

Yin Lufei: "I don't mean that."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I mean, with your conditions, if he is not interested in you, you don't need to do this. There are many men who like you and pursue you."

"Then I like him now, others like me and pursue me, what does it have to do with me?" Ji Miao suddenly shed a tear. "I didn't do anything harmful, and I know not to mess around. Where there are cameras, I didn't look at him once, afraid of scandals, afraid of media making things up. What else do I have to do? Why should I retreat when those men who pursue me can come to find me again and again after being rejected by me? I won't retreat!"

Hearing Ji Miao's final angry shout, Yin Lufei sighed deeply.

As an agent, in this situation, she really has no choice.

Is she going to lock Ji Miao in the house?

Of course impossible.

"It's okay not to win an award," Chen Siqi said on the phone. "You are already the Best Actor in many people's hearts."

"Yeah," Lu Yan He nodded with a smile, although Chen Siqi couldn't see it. "What are you doing today?"

"Went to the teacher's house for dinner in the evening, she pulled us to have a meal together," Chen Siqi said. "Then she talked about our thesis one by one."

Lu Yan He: "How is your thesis?"

"It's okay, I tried hard to write it, but I feel she doesn't seem very satisfied," Chen Siqi sighed. "Of course, this is my own fault, I can't calm down to write the thesis well. There is too much work, I should have started writing the graduation thesis in my junior year like you."

Lu Yan He: "Just try your best, you didn't plan to take the academic path anyway, the mentor can understand."

"Yeah," Chen Siqi said. "Although I say that, I still feel quite embarrassed in my heart. She is really a responsible teacher."

Lu Yan He: "Then can you go on vacation earlier this year? Are the classes over?"

"Two more weeks, and then one more week of exams, and I can come back after the exams. However, you might have gone to Hegang to film by then."

Because a lot of snow scenes are needed, the winter scenes of *Love Letter* are scheduled to be filmed in Hegang.

This is also what the team found after looking for many places.

Lu Yan He asked: "Do you have time to come to Hegang to see me then?"

"Of course I have time, I'm not so busy that I don't even have time to see you," Chen Siqi chuckled. "Why do you sound so aggrieved?"

"No, where is it aggrieved?" Lu Yan He shook his head and denied immediately.

Chen Siqi: "You're stubborn, what if I don't have time then, and have other things delayed, you continue to be stubborn."

"Huh? No, you already promised me," Lu Yan He said. "People can't be a person who breaks their word, you said so."

Chen Siqi: "..."

Lu Yan He smiled as if he had succeeded.

After hanging up the phone, the smile on Lu Yan He's mouth hadn't faded yet.

Seeing this, Li Zhibai hissed more than a dozen times before saying: "Are you on the phone with Chen Siqi?"

"Yeah," Lu Yan He nodded.

Li Zhibai: "Look at the smile on your face, as if you're afraid others won't know."

"I smell jealousy," Lu Yan He said with a smile.

"Jealous of you?" Li Zhibai rolled his eyes. "Jealous of you losing your freedom at a young age and being put on a bridle? You really have a thick face."

Lu Yan He laughed loudly.

The two played two games together, and it was almost midnight before they went to sleep.

Li Zhibai asked: "By the way, haven't you been live streaming for a while?"

"Ah, right, what's wrong?" Lu Yan He asked.

Li Zhibai said: "Your fans are urging you to stream in my comment section."

Lu Yan He: "..."

Li Zhibai waved his hand and yawned. "Sleepy, sleep."

He entered the room and closed the door.

Lu Yan He returned to the room, thinking, it had been a while since he live streamed.

Then stream tomorrow.

Thinking this, Lu Yan He also went to sleep.

The matter of not winning an award tonight basically hadn't lingered in his heart. ===== CHAPTER 492 =====
