CH 198

Character guide

Cao Min, first-line actress with friend Qi Lening.

Sun Shanjing second-line little flower with actress Liu Yueyun.

Luo Ye, second-line refreshing boy with second-line actress He Lixin.

Yuan Jun, a popular idol with his sister Yuan Lai.

Shen Rui, a second-tier refreshing boy, invited Tao Kai.

In spite of this, after weighing the profit brought by the follow-up attention and his own loss, the boss decided to let him play if he really wanted to play.

After all, I can make money myself – even if his heart is really painful when giving away those dolls.

“Ten bullets,” Han Cheng said to him with a smile.

“Ten shots?” The boss was surprised. This time, this time it was ten!

“Can I ask how many times you plan to play?” he inquired nervously.

If he plans to play 20 times and goes 100 rounds, he doesn’t need to open shop. Just give him all the dolls in the shop. Anyway, he can’t keep any!

“Don’t worry.” Han Cheng looked at him. “This time it’s not me playing but my friend.”

The boss glanced at Shen Qingshu and hesitated, “Is your friend as skilled as you?”

“It should be different. He said that he had played before and his results were not good.”

The boss was relieved and handed him the gun and bullets.

Han Cheng helped Shen Qingshu load the bullets, gave it to him and said, “Try it.”

Shen Qingshu took it and stood at the specified place, aiming at the can not far away.

He opened one eye and closed the other eye like Han Cheng, put his forefinger on the trigger, and pulled the trigger after aiming.

With a bang, the bullet flew straight out, but it didn’t hit the can and bounced off the wall.

The boss watching was instantly relieved, and sat back in the chair, “one down.”

Shen Qingshu was unresigned and tried again but still missed.

“Two down,” said the boss.

Shen Qingshu: …

“Good luck, handsome Chinese boy~” laughed the boss.

This is mockery, definitely mockery!

Shen Qingshu turned and looked at Han Cheng. “Didn’t you say you will teach me?”

“So soon? I thought you wanted to play for a while.”

Han Cheng walked behind him and said, “Come, gege will teach you.”

Shen Qingshu immediately picked up the gun, posed and aimed at the can not far away.

Han Cheng stood behind him and pressed his shoulder, helped him aim the gun with one hand and covered his index finger on the trigger with the other hand.

Shen Qingshu suddenly felt that his whole body was surrounded by him.

He looked back at Han Cheng.

Han Cheng raised his chin and motioned him to look at his target. “Look forward, don’t look at me.”

“What are you looking at me for?” Han Cheng deliberately teased him.

Shen Qingshu thought to himself, isn’t it because your actions were too ambiguous. He turned his head and stared at the can.

“Aim at it.” Han Cheng instructed him.

Shen Qingshu closed one eye and stared at his target, “En.”

Han Cheng helped him adjust his posture, gave him a few words of advice, and then held his hand again.

“Ready.”

“En.” Shen Qingshu’s heart beat a little faster.

With a bang, Han Cheng pressed the trigger with his hand, and the bullet flew straight out, hitting the can with a bang.

Shen Qingshu was surprised. “It hit!”

“En.” Han Cheng laughed, “Go and see what you can exchange for it?”

“No rush.” Shen Qingshu looked at a can not far away. “I’ll try it again.”

“Okay.” Han Cheng released his hand and walked aside.

Shen Qingshu thought about what Han Cheng had just told him, adjusted his posture according to his instructions, and then pulled the trigger. However, to his surprise, he still missed.

The boss sighed again and shouted, “Four down.”

I know, Shen Qingshu thought calmly, there is no need to remind me of this tragic fact.

He raised his gun again and shot again. This time the bullet brushed past the can, but didn’t knock down the can, so it didn’t count.

Shen Qingshu was a little depressed. Han Cheng asked him, “Should I help you?”

He thought for a moment and replied to Han Cheng, “Once.”

“Okay, just once.”

Han Cheng came to him again, stood behind him and gave him guidance.

Shen Qingshu listened to him and constantly adjusted his posture and attitude.

“Relax, relax, don’t be nervous, are you ready?

“En.” Shen Qingshu replied.

Han Cheng held his hand and shot the bullet out in an instant. With a bang, another soda can dropped.

Shen Qingshu felt as if he had a vague feeling, but he was not sure. He hurriedly hit the pop can he wanted to hit again.

Shen Qingshu was surprised, “I got it!”

Han Cheng was also happy for him, “En.”

Shen Qingshu ran over with a smile and asked the boss, “What can I exchange this for?”

The boss glanced at him and replied, “A small tiger.”

“How small is it?”

The boss reached for the back shelf and gave him a small tiger pendant doll. “Here, it’s this small.”

Shen Qingshu looked at it in surprise. It was really small.

He took the little tiger, walked to Han Cheng and said, “Here you are.”

“That’s what you won.” Han Cheng looked curiously. “It’s pretty cute.”

“Really?” Shen Qingshu also thought it was cute. “This is the first time I won something by myself, so I’ll give it to you. Thank you for your teachings. Shifu has worked hard.”

“You’re welcome.” Han Cheng took the little tiger in his hand, pinched it, then couldn’t help pinching it again.

Shen Qingshu hit one, and his mind relaxed a lot. He shot several more times, and finished shooting all ten bullets.

On his last shot, another can happened to be hit. Shen Qingshu returned the gun with satisfaction and asked the boss for his trophy.

The boss brought him a little tiger pendant and two rabbit dolls that were slightly bigger than the little tiger.

Shen Qingshu reached out to take it, turned to Han Cheng and said, “Quite a lot.”

“En.” Seeing that he was having fun, Han Cheng was also happy, “It’s just right, take it back as a souvenir of this trip.”

“En.”

They put the rabbit doll in the bag, hung the tiger pendant on the zipper of the backpack, and then left here to continue to visit other places.

Passing the square where dolls were sold before, Shen Qingshu saw that a young artist occupied the corner where they were yesterday. The other party seemed to be selling drawings, he kept asking passers-by whether they wanted their portrait drawn.

Shen Qingshu and Han Cheng walked past, and the man also asked enthusiastically, “Are you travelling? Draw a picture as a souvenir. It’s very cheap, really.”

Shen Qingshu has not been drawn before. He is a little moved.

“Do you want to try?”

He asked Han Cheng.

Han Cheng knew that he would be interested.

So he put his hand on Shen Qingshu’s shoulder and said to the young artist, “Draw.”

The young artist immediately picked up his pencil and quickly sketched while looking at them.

The streets are full of traffic with people coming and going, but they are the only ones who are still.

Han Cheng looked down at Shen Qingshu. He could see the sun shining on his face. He looked pure and beautiful in the summer light.

Han Cheng leaned close to his ear and whispered something, Shen Qingshu looked up at him proudly, the artist captured their expressions and drew quickly.

In the streets of foreign countries, the summer afternoon is quiet and gentle.

The artist drew for 40 minutes and handed the final drawing to Shen Qingshu.

His skills are very good. Both Shen Qingshu and Han Cheng’s charm are very precisely captured, and the expressions of the two are also vivid. Shen Qingshu looked at the picture of Han Cheng approaching himself and whispering. He looks back at him, with obvious pride and joy in his eyes.

For a moment, it was as if he had returned to that moment. Han Cheng whispered to him, “You are so beautiful.”

When he looked back at him, he felt irrepressible joy.

Shen Qingshu paid the money, rolled up the picture and put it in his bag.

They played outside for a while longer, ate dinner, and walked back in the moonlight.

When passing by the wishing fountain, Shen Qingshu took two coins and made a wish together with Han Cheng in the wishing fountain.

He closed his eyes and thought: I hope they can stay together forever, I hope they can be happy forever, and I hope their family can be happy forever.

Shen Qingshu threw the coin into the wishing fountain, hoping that his wish could be realised.

After four days, the recording of the first episode was finally over.

After that, they can go home and have a rest for a few days. After a week, they can start the recording of the  second episode.

The program team returned their mobile phones and sent them to the airport the next day.

Shen Qingshu felt tired after recording the variety show.

Most aspects were fine, it was mainly because pretending to be just friends with Han Cheng in front of the camera was really difficult.

At this time, he envied Han Cheng very much, because he didn’t worry as much. In addition to not being able to do obviously intimate actions, he never wronged himself.

“You really don’t listen to me at all.” Shen Qingshu said helplessly, “I told you not to be too obvious. You still did whatever you wanted.”

“That’s not what you said before, can’t I be proud of my favour?” Han Cheng laughed.

Shen Qingshu can’t do anything about him. All right. Anyway, since the party concerned is not afraid of his parents seeing it, what is he afraid of?

He looked at Han Cheng, slightly tilted his head, then opened his arms, “hug.”

Han Cheng smiled and hugged him. Shen Qingshu rubbed in his arms. He was rather nostalgic. “I haven’t hugged you properly for a long time.”

He hugged Han Cheng, feeling his atmosphere with fondness.

Han Cheng touched his head and said, “Haven’t you? Don’t I hug you every night?”

“Just for a moment, then I fell asleep.”

Han Cheng laughed and said, “Okay, let me hug you more and you can better enjoy my hug.”

“En.”

Shen Qingshu smiled at him and kissed him. His heart was full of sweetness.

The two of them rested at home for a whole day, and Han Cheng went to the company the next day.

When Han Yu saw him coming back, he asked, “Was it fun to record the show?”

“Okay, it’s interesting.”

“Oh? I’m looking forward to your variety show.”

“Just wait.” Han Cheng felt that his performance was not bad, “When the time comes, you will find out how attractive your didi is!”

Han Yu raised his eyebrows, “We’ll see.”

Just after the official Weibo of ‘Follow me on a trip’ released the news that the first episode has just finished recording, fans of Shen Qingshu and Han Cheng left messages under the official Weibo, asking them when it will be broadcast and if they could hurry up. Everyone is already eager to see it, please, save the child!1 

The director of the program team looked at their messages and became more determined to broadcast while recording and quickly start broadcasting.

At this time, Shen Qingshu’s enthusiasm has not gone down, and fans and passers-by are very concerned about him. If it is delayed for another month, fans may continue to pay attention to him, but passers-by may have already forgotten him.

“Start editing today and try to finish editing the first episode and trailer before the end of the second recording,” the director said to the editor.

“Yes.”

“Work hard, everyone. If the program’s response is good, your bonus will not be less, so work hard for a few months, and then we can rest.”

As soon as the bonus was mentioned, they were no longer tired. Replying, “We will complete the task.”

Shen Qingshu was watching a movie at home when his mobile phone rang suddenly. He got it and saw the WeChat message sent by the director of the program group: [If there’s no accident, editing should be finished before the second episode recording is concluded, and I will send it to you first. If you think there is no problem, we will broadcast it.]

Shen Qingshu was shocked: [So fast?]

[soone is better than later. Your popularity is high at the moment, and the popularity of the show is also high, so let’s aim to roadcast half a month later.]

Shen Qingshu can’t help being nervous. Half a month later, I wondered if Han Cheng’s parents would see it and how they would react?

But… Han Cheng is about to kick the closet to pieces. His parents should not fail to see through it … right?

1 救救孩子吧 = In idol variety shows where they compete to be in the final debut group, because the number of votes is related to whether or not to stay, fans often use the term “save the child” when canvassing votes for the contestant they like, making this term gradually popular in the fan circle.
