Chapter 203: Pei Zhen Will Not Say No

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Although the two men didn’t give any explicit answers, it was accepted that in the entertainment circle that news wouldn’t spring from nothing. Given that the picture of them kissing was made public, the filming crew assumed that it was all real.

The Director was an open-minded person. Since he was directing a gay-themed film, naturally he was accepting of the two male leads holding hands and the occasional love-struck looks that they threw at each other—it was sickeningly sweet.

“Cough, cough.” The Director walked over to them once the great manager Xiao Nian was done with meeting his new ‘Mother’. “Best Actor Fu, Pei Zhen, are we going to start filming today?”

“Of course.” Pei Zhen turned to the Director while withdrawing his paw from Fu Sichen. “I’m a professional man with strong work ethics. I’m not going to waste everyone’s time with my private affairs.”

Everyone looked on in wonder.

Fu Sichen stuck a hand into his pocket, looking every bit stunning. “Yes, me too.”

The Director had only observed Pei Zhen’s arrogance in the past, but it was the first time they met in person, and it wasn’t what he expected. The Director was stunned for a moment and eventually gave a friendly smile.

Such sincerity and candidness were rare in the entertainment circle.

Even harder to come by was the fact that Pei Zhen was not all talk. If everyone took a moment to think about it, they’d find that Pei Zhen never had the reputation of being one to act all high-and-mighty.

People who were working on the crew of a gay-themed movie were naturally more accepting of people of that nature.

Not to mention, such affairs weren’t unusual in the entertainment circle, although they were usually kept hush-hush. But no matter, none of the other couples were as good-looking as Fu Sichen and Pei Zhen.

Among the filming crowd, there were their couple fans who turned up to have a look.

Even before that photo of the two of them kissing existed, those fans were already swooning over them and squealing like groundhogs in private. Seeing them in person was, of course, a not-to-be-missed photo opportunity.

“Arghhhhh… I… I can’t take this! They are so so dashing!”

When pictures taken at the filming location got circulated to the couple fans, that ripple quickly turned into a tidal wave that created a whole herd of squealing groundhogs. They pored over the pictures.

“I envy the people who are there!”

“Which filming location is this? Are they still looking for workers? I’ll run errands for free!”

“Ahhhhh… my favorite man and his boyfriend! My god! Why am I not even upset that they are together?!”

There were supportive people, but there were also those who made nasty comments. Even among the couple fans, some people objected.

Those who were kinder just left the group; those who weren’t so kind made comments on how disgusting it was, and some clamored about hating their idols forever. The discussion group degenerated into a mess.

However, that was just a small part of it all; there was a more serious situation brewing on the internet.

Xiao Nian had taken time out to make a trip to the filming location to verify that his Daddy Pei and Fu Sichen were indeed serious. Following that, he hurried back to the agency.

It wasn’t just about PR; it involved many sponsorship deals and assignments. The senior management had to call for an emergency meeting to deal with the situation of their top star coming out of the closet.

“Where’s Pei Zhen?!” The boss was furious. “I don’t care if he and Fu Sichen are for real, but he has to deny it! I want him to issue a statement right away!”

Even in modern society, people didn’t accept homosexuality on a wide scale. People avoided it like the plague and still thought of it as a seditious thing.

Although Xiao Nian was quite a sloppy man, he was, nevertheless, a champion manager. When it came to proper work, he was firm and decisive. “Pei Zhen is not going to agree to deny the relationship. Even if he issued a statement, he’d surely admit to the affair.”

“Then he’s fired!”

It wasn’t only the breach of contract damages—there was also the contract with the agency—there was no way Pei Zhen could afford the penalties.
