Chapter 137 – Hugs and sweet moments

Translator: ChuRen/ YuQiChen

After saying that, Tang Qing realized his words were ambiguous.

Curses… it’s all because of filming too many adult movies recently. He kept hearing these lines from the actors, filled with vulgar language. His pure mind had been brainwashed, leading to him accidentally blurting out the wrong thing.

And it was also because Lu Zeyu hugged him too tightly, the embrace was too firm, making him lose his coherence.

Tang Qing wished he could dig a hole on the spot and bury himself in it.

He awkwardly tried to clarify, “I meant, your clothes are wet, and they got me wet too.”

Since it was a scene where they embraced in the rain, Lu Zeyu had filmed it multiple times, leaving him soaking wet.

Lu Zeyu nodded lightly, not particularly bothered.

Then, he calmly asked, “Director, do we need to continue hugging?”

Tang Qing was a bit perplexed by the question.

He had been so nervous that he hadn’t even noticed if Lu Zeyu’s body movements were correct or not.

All he felt was that Lu Zeyu’s muscles were rock hard all over.

Tang Qing wasn’t sure if they should continue hugging.

But remembering what Gu Minghao said about getting used to it by hugging more, Tang Qing reluctantly put on a serious face and said, “No, your body movements are too stiff, you need more practice.”

Lu Zeyu glanced down at Tang Qing.

His beautiful peach blossom eyes looked calmly at Tang Qing.

Tang Qing felt extremely guilty.

Lu Zeyu was like a rare flower on a high peak, with many people trying to get close to him but failing. Yet, here he was, having such close contact under the guise of work.

Eating tofu shamelessly.

Feeling embarrassed just thinking about it.

So Tang Qing had to adopt a professional attitude and earnestly said, “When you hug someone, there’s no emotion. When you hugged Shangguan Linlin, your body movements were filled with disgust.”

“When you hugged me just now, it seemed a bit too forced, too much strength, just using brute force to hug.”

Lu Zeyu takes his work very seriously, and upon hearing this, he asked:

“What’s the proper way to hug someone?”

“What level of strength, what angle, what posture?”

Tang Qing was stunned by his questions.

He could only rely on his experience from filming adult movies to think of an answer.

Tang Qing: “You shouldn’t just focus on the strength, angle, or posture. This isn’t a math problem with formulas to follow.”

“You should think of the person in your arms as someone you love, someone you want to hold so tightly, as if you want to merge them into your flesh and blood. But you’re also afraid of holding them too tight and shattering the beautiful dream in your arms.”

“It’s like the feeling of holding something precious in your hands, afraid it will fall, or keeping something delicate in your mouth, afraid it will melt. Do you understand?”

Lu Zeyu looked at Tang Qing without responding.

For him, the emotions Tang Qing described were indeed unfamiliar.

In his debut film, he played a doctor with a dual personality, a polite and gentle surgeon by day and a psychopathic serial killer by night. He effortlessly switched between the two personalities, portraying a person with a split personality disorder. What was even more astonishing was his ability to quickly get into and out of character, unlike most actors who might get too immersed in a role.

The director he worked with on that film highly praised him, calling Lu Zeyu the only genius he had encountered in decades of directing.

With this role, Lu Zeyu won the Best Actor award among seasoned actors in his debut year.

However, Lu Zeyu knew that his acting skills were not as good as perceived by others.

He won awards because the film had little emotional content.

The doctor character was a germaphobe, single, and committed to not getting married, aligning with his real-life personality. However, in his current role as an emperor, there were emotional scenes with the female lead.

He had noticed this beforehand but didn’t expect to find it so challenging to get into character.

Truth be told, when he hugged the legendary goddess of the geeks, he didn’t feel like she was a desirable person in his arms. He found her bones poking him uncomfortably, her perfume scent overwhelming, making him uncomfortable everywhere. He even felt the need to disinfect himself after the encounter.

If he hadn’t remembered they were filming, he would have wanted to throw the person out on the spot.

He wasn’t singling out Shangguan Linlin; he had the same issue working with other actors.

“Movie Emperor Lu, what do you think?” Tang Qing looked at the pensive Lu Zeyu, feeling even more guilty.

Afraid that Lu Zeyu might think he was making excuses to take advantage of him.

Lu Zeyu nodded and said, “Let’s try again.”

Tang Qing obediently stood in place, feeling Lu Zeyu’s embrace once more.

After a while, Lu Zeyu finally let go of Tang Qing, his sexy Adam’s apple bobbing as he faintly said, “I think I’m getting better.”

Tang Qing also noticed that Lu Zeyu’s movements were no longer as deliberate or stiff.

“Tangtang, have you two finished hugging?” Gu Minghao, who had finished talking to Shangguan Linlin, called out from afar.

The two returned to the set to continue filming.

“Let’s continue with the previous scene,” Gu Minghao instructed as he settled into the director’s chair, ready to resume.

Lu Zeyu walked over to Shangguan Linlin, who was getting prepared, gazing at him affectionately, her face filled with admiration.

Lu Zeyu couldn’t help but furrow his brows slightly.

“Ready…!”

“Wait.” Lu Zeyu’s voice turned cold.

“What’s wrong?”

This was the first time Lu Zeyu interrupted the filming process.

Gu Minghao looked at him puzzled, and Shangguan Linlin stood frozen in place, watching as her co-star abruptly walked towards someone.

Everyone was puzzled by Lu Zeyu’s sudden interruption.

Without saying a word, Lu Zeyu strode over to Tang Qing.

Tang Qing raised his head, tilting it in confusion as he gazed at the tall, handsome man before him. Was there some detail that still needed to be discussed with the assistant director?

However, Lu Zeyu remained silent and simply embraced him.

The young man in his arms looked bewildered, letting himself be held, his body relaxed. He had a faint, elusive scent, making it feel like he was holding a cute little cat.

After quietly holding him for a while, Lu Zeyu finally let go and returned to the set.

“I need to find my feeling again,” Lu Zeyu replied.

Gu Minghao was left speechless. Was he getting addicted to hugging now?

“Alright, alright, Movie Emperor Lu, as long as you like it,” Gu Minghao thought to himself. If Lu Zeyu could deliver a good performance, hugging the assistant director every day would be fine.

“Action!”

The following scenes went smoothly.

Lu Zeyu finally found his rhythm, embracing Shangguan Linlin affectionately and completing the scene with emotion.

Even though he had a look on his face as if he wanted to throw Shangguan Linlin out the moment the director yelled “Cut,” Gu Minghao patted Tang Qing’s shoulder and praised, “Well done, Tangtang. Now you can direct actors too. Movie Emperor Lu seems to have been won over by you.”

Tang Qing, feeling embarrassed, replied, “Oh, it’s nothing. I didn’t say much; Movie Emperor Lu figured it out himself.”

Tang Qing wasn’t sure if he had actually been of much help. Was he just a prop, being hugged by Lu Zeyu for a while? Could that really be helpful?

…

“Movie Emperor Lu.”

A figure of exquisite beauty, with an androgynous charm, dressed in a goose-yellow long skirt, walked over to Lu Zeyu.

The slit in the skirt was high, reaching up to the roots of the thighs.

Beneath the skirt were a pair of long, fair, and slender legs, exuding infinite beauty.

The person seemed a bit shy, eyes lowered, not looking at Lu Zeyu.

Holding up the skirt hem, they slowly approached Lu Zeyu.

“Movie Emperor Lu.”

The hand holding the skirt hem relaxed and reached towards Lu Zeyu’s trousers.

Their hands were fair and slender, as delicate as a finely crafted piece of art.

The person slowly crouched down, bent over, lowered their head, ready to pull down Lu Zeyu’s pants.

Lu Zeyu, who had always been reserved, didn’t mind this person’s actions. In fact, he couldn’t help but reach out and caress the person’s hair.

Their hair was soft, with a faint, elusive scent, much like his own.

Although there was no deliberate allure, it was just right, making him feel comfortable.

The person lifted their head, revealing a beautiful and graceful face.

“Beep, beep, beep…”

The sound of the alarm clock rang out.

“Lu-ge, you have an interview at ten o’clock at XX TV station. You know, those reporters there are always trying to catch you late or create rumors about you,” Xiao Li chattered on the phone, detailing Lu Zeyu’s schedule for the day.

“Lu-ge, are you listening? Can you hear me?” There was no response from the other end of the phone for a while, so Xiao Li repeated the information.

“I got it, I’m not deaf,” Lu Zeyu finally responded.

Lu Zeyu replied lightly and then hung up the phone.

His voice, just waking up, was deep, sexy, and slightly hoarse.

With sleepy eyes, his handsome features gradually relaxed, the sharp lines of his face chiseled and defined, lazy and casual.

Half sitting up, the blanket slid down from his broad shoulders, revealing his strong upper body. Honey-toned skin adorned with just the right muscle definition, casting enticing shadows in the morning light.

But his expression seemed a bit sour.

Perhaps due to recent stress, he found himself having such strange dreams.

The subject of his dream was that playboy rich kid.

He stood up, walking towards the bathroom, casually pulling off his underwear.

Below was a swollen bulge.

His pants were soaked with his fluid, emitting a strong musky scent¹my actual face at the moment.

It seemed like it had been a while since he last released.

He glanced at it disdainfully before tossing the underwear and pants into the trash.

The young man was just softer to hold, more comfortable, and more unforgettable.

Nothing more.

There was nothing special about it.
