Why Don’t You Coax Me? - CH 9

Chapter 9- Status: Drunk

After his only recent job was over, Ran Shu went to the company to attend teacher Pang’s class, and then went to the training room to train until late at night.

During this period, he carefully read three scripts.

There is a script that he is very optimistic about. The plot and world view are very good, but this drama is an adaptation of a novel. After reading some of the original content, he found that the author did not leave room for the actors at all, and the male protagonist is like a fairy.

The male protagonist appeared, and Hongxia also dimmed by three points.

The hero’s second appearance caused the ruined place to become a colorful one.

The hero’s aura is too strong. When he appears in rich colors around him, he will make the surroundings dim, and when the surrounding colors are low saturated, he will bring rich colors.

Under this kind of rendering, he imagined his own ancient costume.

His image is suitable for a dude, but not for a fairy hero.

Ran Shu has self-knowledge, so he finally chose the other drama. The character of the hero should be more lively and flexible.

The male lead is a gentle and refined man on weekdays, but in private, he has a very deep palace.

And a little sick.

He felt that he could interpret this role very well.

Now that he has made a choice, he is going to fight for this role.

Sang Xian also paid enough attention to him. When Ran Shu went to meet the producer, the director and others of the production team asked Hu Yongqi to go with him.

This is the first task Sang Xian assigned to Hu Yongqi after Sang Xian took over the company, and Hu Yongqi cannot neglect it.

Ran Shu has also prepared a lot of his own insights and opinions, and is ready to have a good chat with the team to increase his competitiveness.

However, when he walked into the room, he saw all the staff members in the team looking at him straight in the eyes, which made him subconsciously stop.

The producer wanted to shake hands with Ran Shu, but the director asked inappropriately at this moment: “Can I have a laugh?”

Ran Shu was puzzled by the question, but he really laughed out with a completely puzzled yet polite smile.

“It’s him, it’s him.” The director finally came over to shake hands with Ran Shu.

When Ran Shu shook hands with him, he asked, “Am I already auditioning?”

The director smiled brightly and explained, “I’ve seen your short videos and photos before, and I thought the corners of your mouth were post-production. I didn’t expect it to be true.”

“The corners of the mouth?”

“Yes, the corners of the mouth.”

After the simple politeness was over, the director explained to Ran Shu while sitting down: “The character design of the male lead has a standard upturned lip. That is to say, the corners of the mouth should be  like a first-quarter moon when smiling. This kind of lips can best interpret the black-bellied design. When smiling, people feel that they can kill invisible people.”

“We have seen a few actors before, and one of them is indeed like you. It’s the kind of lip shape we were looking for, but it’s a pity that it’s a smiling lip made by surgery. Thus it turned up to be very fake.”

If you pay special attention to your lips, you will find that when people smile, some people’s lips will have a curvature. The unnatural curvature will make the smile not good-looking, and it will bring bitterness.

Ran Shu has a standard upturned lip. Whenever he smiles, the corners of his mouth become crooked. It can look a little evil, but his smile can also be showcased even brighter.

He practiced smiling in the expression management class before, which made his smile more contagious.

In the entertainment industry, he once counted the artists with the most beautiful smiles, and Ran Shuci always ranked first. Maybe it’s also because of this kind of upturned lips.

This time the meeting went very smoothly. The people in the shooting team were very talkative and their needs were very clear. They even set a date with Ran Shu directly, and then went to try makeup.

It was so smooth that it pick up Ran Shu was in  trance, as if it’s a little unreal, but he was still happy about it. So he drank a few more glasses.

Ran Shu is usually not good when he is drunk.

He still has some sense on weekdays, knowing that he is an artist and has his own self. Thanks to his emotional management.

But after being drunk, it is a complete release. Many words and things will be said and done beyond reason.

Hu Yongqi saw the message on his mobile phone and quickly replied to Sang Xian: The talk is over and it went well. It’s just that Ran Shu is a little drunk. I plan to ask his assistant to take him back. Otherwise, he is prone to bad things after drinking.

Mr. Sang: Send him down.

At this time, Hu Yongqi hadn’t understood the specific meaning of this sentence, so he just ordered his assistant to send Ran Shu downstairs to continue entertaining the filming team.

“Ran Shu is good at everything, but he really can’t drink. Let’s send him back first, and I’ll drink with you.” Hu Yongqi said, and sat in the seat before Ran Shu.

Ran Shu was helped by his assistant to the parking lot downstairs, and saw Sang Xian standing not far away in a daze.

He immediately let go of his assistant, walked towards Sang Xian, pointed at him before scholding him : “Can’t you go up and pick me up?!”

This posture seemed to have forgotten that they had broken up for two years, and the question was justified.

The assistant didn’t know about the relationship between them, and he acted as if his own artist was mad at the boss. He panicked immediately and wanted to stop Ran Shu.

However, Sang Xian took advantage of the situation to support Ran Shu and didn’t feel that there was anything wrong. Instead, he said to him, “I’ll send him back.”

“But…” The assistant subconsciously felt that this was wrong.

“Go back, go back!” Ran Shu waved to him, “I’m not drunk.”

“Really?”

“Really!” Ran Shu answered very smoothly.

Sang Xian’s arm supported him as they walked towards Sang Xian’s car.

“We all…discussed about styling, and they asked me if I had any requests…hahaha…”

The assistant watched the two leave, and quickly sent a message to Brother Liu.

Ran Shu sat in the car, turned around and approached Sang Xian: “They say I have upturned lips and that my lips are beautiful, what do you think?”

Sang Xian turned his head to look at him, his eyes swept over his lips, and what he saw was the slightly raised corners of his mouth. With a slight smile, perhaps the make-up hadn’t been removed and there was still a begonia red color on his lips.

Really pretty lips.

“They’re ery nice.” Sang Xian replied.

Ran Shu smiled with satisfaction, and his laughter came as a little naive. He then continued to ask happily: “Then when you… fell in love with me before, was it because of my lips?”

“Not entirely.” Sang Xian sat down again. He took out his phone to read a message from Brother Liu.

He needs to reassure Brother Liu. Otherwise, Brother Liu will always be afraid that he will tell Ran Shu some unspoken rules.

So he asked frankly: [Did you know that Ran Shu had an ex who was in an always on and off relationship with him?]

“Then what’s so good about me?” Ran Shu raised his hand and turned Sang Xian’s face, making him look at him.

Sang Xian’s eyes swept over his cheeks. He then looked from his shoes all to the end of his hair. He finally looked away: “Everything looks good.”

“You…” Ran Shu sat on the seat, giggling. He forgot that he ought to scold Sang Xian, “You are superficial. I get that you’re so obsessed with my appearance, I am a damn beautiful person… Hehehe…”

“Yeah.” Sang Xian replied perfunctorily when replying to the message.

Ran Shu suddenly became sad: “Unfortunately, the two of us are not suitable. We can’t reach the deepest part of the other’s heart, and we are destined not to make it to the end.”

“The deepest part of the soul is indeed a bit tricky, but I have been to the deepest part of yours.”

“…” Ran Shu was paralyzed by alcohol, and he thought for a while before he came back to his senses, “Who said that is the deepest part? You are not that long!”

“Oh, it can go deeper? I’ll try it next time.”

“No next time! No!”

“Oh.”

Ran Shu looked at Sang Xian angrily, and then went to Sang Xian’s mobile phone: “You are the busiest when you are with me! Talk to me!”

“It’s messages from Brother Liu.”

Ran Shu snatched Sang Xian’s cell phone and saw the message from Brother Liu. He immediately sent a reply through voice message: “You are annoying! He still has to reply to your messages when he is with me. You have nothing to do, just gossip! Yes, hang up! No…don’t send anymore messages to him!”

After sending the message, he pressed the phone under his lap: “You can grab it if you can.”

Sang Xian didn’t grab it. He took a deep breath to adjust his emotions and continued to watch drunk Ran Shu.

Seeing that Sang Xian’s attention returned to him, Ran Shu was satisfied. He leaned over again and asked, “Don’t I look pretty when I smile?”

“You look good when you’re crying too.”

“Pervert.”

Sang Xian looked out the car window and said to Ran Shu: “It’s your home, shall I take you up?”

“To my house? There are paparazzi ambushing near my house, can’t you take me to your house??? Good-for-nothing scum!”

“Okay, then we will go to my house.”

The car restarted.

Ran Shu sat in the car and sulked.

Sang Xian looked at him very puzzled.

Finally, Ran Shu couldn’t bear it anymore and patted Sang Xian’s arm: “Aren’t you going to coax me?”

“Uh…what are you angry about?”

Ran Shu roared instantly, “You don’t even know why I’m angry? I don’t know!!!!”

“…” Sang Xian continued to think, “I’m sorry, next time I’ll take you directly to my house.”

“Not this one!”

Sang Xian tried to ask again: “Then… next time I’ll go a little deeper? I underestimated your unfathomable depth.”

“I told you there will be no next time!”

“Oh, then I won’t look at my phone when I’m with you.”

“Yeah.”

Sang Xian breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, he got it right after the third one this time.

The car drove into  of Sang Xian’s residence, and he helped Ran Shu get out of the car.

Ran Shu’s legs were wiggly and it collapses everytime it pressed against the ground. So he couldn’t step on it firmly, and his whole body leaned against Sang Xian.

When he entered the elevator, he simply acted foolishly and fell into Sang Xian’s arms, rubbing against Sang Xian’s suit: “Ah… pectoral muscles… so nice…”

Sang Xian: “…”

For Sang Xian, Ran XianShu’s weight and body shape are well controlled. He can easily support Ran Shu, and he can even carry him around at will.

Ran Shu, who was drunk, was really dishonest. As soon as the two of them entered the door, Ran Shu slapped him on the chest.

Maybe because he was satisfied with the feeling. Ran Shu began to laugh wantonly. But because of the force of that slap, his body fell to the cabinet behind him. Fortunately, Sang Xian caught him with one arm and carried him into the house.

He sent Ran Shu into a room and put him on the bed. Looking at him in casual clothes, he thought that he would not be uncomfortable sleeping like this, so he said to him, “You should rest first. I still have some work…”

Ran Shu dragged him back by holding on to the hem of his clothes. He looked at him with piercing eyes: “You want to leave?”

“Well, I still have a lot of work to do.”

“Sang Xian, I’m here. I have a bed here, and you fucking want to leave?!” Ran Shu asked in disbelief.

Sang Xian forced Ran Shu’s hand that was holding the hem of his clothes apart finger by finger and said, “There will be no next time.”

“I said no, but you are allowed!” After Ran Shu let go of Sang Xian, He picked up the pillow and threw it at Sang Xian.

“I’ll listen to you.” Sang Xian took two steps back after speaking, making a gesture to leave the room.

Ran Shu simply rushed over: “Sang Xian! Are you dying?! You are twenty-seven! You can’t stand up anymore, can you?! How wild you were when you messed with me. Like a well digger who worked hard all night. Don’t stop. Teenagers don’t know how to do it like you, so you can’t do it?! Isn’t there a way?!”

For a barbarian who is drunk, even Sang Xian needs to use both hands to tear Ran Shu off his body and then throw him back on the bed: “You are drunk.”

“I am not. I am Ran Shu. When I am drunk, are you not Sang Xian?”

“I’m Sang Xian, but you don’t have to be Ran Shu.”

“Fart!” Ran Shu growled and patted the bed hard, “Now fuck me!”

After finishing speaking, he laid on his back on the bed.

Sang Xian raised his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows. Why did he like such a thing?

Also loved it for ten years.

The author has something to say:

It’s quite normal, the speed of the two of them… It’s all slow and good.
