Chapter 90 (1/2)
When Shen Huai returned home, it was already ten o’clock in the evening. The room was dark, his brows were slightly knitted. He was about to turn on the light when he was hugged.
Shen Huai’s conditional reflex was to throw this person off, but he smelled a familiar scent.
Shen Huai relaxed his muscles and let Ye Cang rest his head on his shoulder. “What are you doing?” he asked
Ye Cang said vaguely, “I missed you.”
Shen Huai was silent for a moment, then he reached out and hugged him back.
After a long time, Ye Cang finally kissed the side of Shen Huai’s face and turned on the lights.
The sudden light made Shen Huai squint, then he was pulled to the living room by Ye Cang. There was still a suitcase in the living room that hadn’t been unpacked yet.
Ye Cang pulled him to lay carelessly on the sofa. “The domestic travels are basically over, in the upcoming days I can finally have some good rest at home.”
Shen Huai looked at the fatigue on his face and felt a heartache. “Thank you for your hard work. I’m so sorry. I was supposed to accompany you.”
Ye Cang was generous, “Haven’t you been busy lately? It is alright.”
Shen Huai paused.”When I’m done with the matters here, I can accompany you to the United States.”
“You can accompany me to America?” Ye Cang was shocked. He didn’t expect that Shen Huai had such a plan.
After Ye Cang was shortlisted for the Colin Award in April, the organizing committee immediately sent him a letter of invitation. According to Ye Cang’s analysis, he was just enlisted for an award, so he didn’t plan to let Shen Huai go with him, and he hadn’t expected Shen Huai who remained silent about this matter to already have made such preparations.
Shen Huai said with a smile, “No matter what the final result is, it is a very important moment for you. No matter if I am your agent or partner, I should be with you at that time.”
In the past, Ye Cang felt that Shen Huai always thought too much, and even if he liked something, he would never show it directly, so he was always a little aggrieved when chasing him. However, when they got together, his character became so frank and lovely that he felt that his whole heart would melt.
Ye Cang didn’t hold back and leaned over to kiss him again.
Shen Huai’s lashes trembled slightly when he closed his eyes.
The kiss continued for a long time, and the air around them seemed to have become hot and thick. Ye Cang went from kissing the corner of Shen Huai’s lips to kissing his neck. Just as he was kissing his neck the doorbell rang.
Ye Cang: “…”
He continued regardless of it, but the person who rang the doorbell didn’t spare him.
Finally, Shen Huai reluctantly pushed Ye Cang away. “Open the door.”
Ye Cang got up from Shen Huai with a black face and opened the door full of anger, just to see Chu Mei Bo standing at the door with Song Yimian who was carrying drinks and midnight snacks behind her, with a face full of “sorry for visiting late at night”.
Chu Mei Bo glanced behind him and said, “You didn’t open the door for a long time, what were you doing inside?”
Ye Cang: “…”
At this moment, Shen Huai had already finished arranging his clothes and came out. Seeing both Chu Mei Bo and Song Yimian, he was stupefied for a moment. “What’s wrong? What are you doing here so late?”
Chu Mei Bo motioned to Song Yimian to show the drinks and the midnight snacks. “Did you forget that ‘Travel with History’ premiered tonight?”
Ye Cang glanced at his watch and said, “At this point, it has already finished!”
Chu Mei Bo: “We can watch the replay.”
Ye Cang didn’t intend to back off. “Watching the replay, why don’t you just come back tomorrow?”
Chu Mei Bo raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Cang and Shen Huai. Then she said very clearly, “Oh, it seems that we came here accidentally disturbing you during the good things.”
Ye Cang: “…”
Shen Huai stopped Chu Mei Bo who was about to leave. “It’s nothing. Come on in.”
Chu Mei Bo smiled and deliberately looked at Ye Cang. “Cang, what do you think?”
What else could Ye Cang do? He could only grind his teeth and say, “I don’t have a problem with that. Please come in—-“
Chu Mei Bo: “Don’t be so reluctant.”
Ye Cang: “One, should, not, encourage, violence.”
Chu Mei Bo saw that the blue vein above his eyebrows looked like it was about to burst, so she stopped teasing him and went inside the house.
Song Yimian also walked in after her and greeted Shen Huai and Ye Cang, “Brother Shen, Brother Ye, excuse me.”
He was so polite that Ye Cang could not express his anger, and could only sigh helplessly in his heart.
He thought that since old Du was gone, the main obstacle was gone, but now he found out that he had been too naive.
The person he was thinking of had a pile of scripts in front of him when he suddenly sneezed three times in a row, and the housekeeper hurriedly approached him concerned, “Young master, do you have a cold?”
Guo Wenyuan scratched his head and muttered to himself.
He hadn’t had a cold recently, could his bad kidney lead to a cold?!
Guo Wenyuan made a quick decision, “Tomorrow for lunch make me some lily soup with pork and add a leek!”
Housekeeper: “…..Yes.”
–
After the airing of the first episode of “Travel with History,” the social networks exploded.
The program was well produced, with exquisite details and interesting forms. Each episode was like a highly interactive movie and the audience seemed to follow the guests to that period of history.
Although the program focused on understanding and perceiving history, and its cultural core was serious, the form of the show was not rigid, but rather relaxed and lively. With the stars’ modern way of thinking, understanding major events in history caused many fun moments.
When the star guests were talking nonsense, the co-performers were still able to maintain their serious roles and were praised by the audience.
In recent years, the audience’s aesthetics began to shift, and they started to pay close attention to the acting skills of the actors. Several supporting actors from “Travel with History” were all from the National Theatre. This kind of recorded real-time performance was exactly what they were good at. Although this time the form was a little different, these actors still used their superb acting skills to show the audience a wonderful performance.
Almost at the end of the program, Douban already showed a rating above 9 points, generated by more than thousands of people, making it the highest-rated variety show in nearly a year.
Originally, many audience members who weren’t usually interested in this kind of cultural program watched the episode with curiosity and then cried themselves into the pit.
Therefore, by the time of the airing of the second episode – “Li Yuan” (eng. Pear Garden) – the attention on the show was already very high.
