"Aren't you naive,"
Chen Yi stroked Fu Xiu Nian's face gently for a while before squeezing him by the cheeks,
"If I really disliked you, I would present a different face otherwise, and in the future, I would still throw you away anyway. Sweet words, honey filled talks, these are the most useless things in the world."
Chen Yi's no fluff attitude with no additives was scarily blunt, so much so that only a small handful of the earth's population could take it straight to the face. But it was also this kind of attitude that made others feel safe, far safer and far more comforted than any promises to go the length of the earth could ever be. Fu Xiu Nian didn't know if he should be happy or mad at this and said,
"You think it is useless, so you will never say those words out loud?"
"It's not really all that,"
Seeing that the soup was almost boiling over, he turned off the stove before continuing,
"They say when I compliment someone, it doesn't sound like I am."
Fu Xiu Nian laughed, showing off his hidden dimples lightly,
"That's true. It's already considered an improvement if you aren't saying bad things."
The soup was just about done with the potatoes that he put in a few moments ago having gone soft; if they were boiled for any longer, they would only turn into mush. Fu Xiu Nian ladled out some soup into a bowl as he said very nonchalantly,
"Right, what film offer did you accept?"
Chen Yi took over the boiling hot bowl of soup from his hands as he also very nonchalantly replied,
"It's called << Minister >>. I am going to act as the main supporting male actor, as the main villain."
<< Minister >> depicts how a protagonist, Yan Dao Ning, who started as a ninth ranked official, worked his way up into the central court of power and became a famous official in the end. Chen Yi was playing the role of the ninth prince, Meng Yu, who was a wild, nefarious schemer and one that had a personality that could not be reeled in.
Because Yan Dao Ning was part of the Crown Prince's party, he had the mind to kill him off. Each scene that featured Chen Yi's part was heavily involved with the plot, and this kind of cool, handsome villain, if played well, would become very popular with the general public.
Fu Xiu Nian made a strange sound at that,
"Ah? What a coincidence that you also accepted a role in << Minister >>?"
Chen Yi paused from sipping on his bowl of soup and furrowed his eyebrows slightly,
"What, you also accepted a role in this?"
Fu Xiu Nian nodded his head,
"Hmm. But I don't have a lot of parts. Just a small character. I'll be playing Lu Shuang."
Lu Shuang was the top strategic advisor for the ninth prince, Meng Yu. He was a man with many skills, and his mind was even better. But in truth, he was really the Crown Prince's spy, and during Meng Yu's most desperate time of need, he would take off his mask. So to say...... their roles were intertwined very tightly.
Chen Yi gave an "oh" face at that,
"It doesn't matter if you have a small part. In the end, I still die by your hands."
Hmm. The final ending, Lu Shuang kills Meng Yu with one sword swing.
Fu Xiu Nian interlaced his fingers together and lightly kicked Chen Yi's feet under the table. He jokingly said,
