Professional Body Double Chapter 33

Zhou Xiang was stunned, he stared blankly, couldn’t believe his own ears and thought he must have misheard.

Yan MingXu shouted “Dong ge” again. Don’t even know where the strength came from, he rushed to hold Zhou Xiang and
kissed him indiscriminately, still calling “Dong ge”.

Zhou Xiang felt as if his whole body had been struck by lightning and he was unable to react for a few moments.

Dong ge? Who is he calling?

Zhou Xiang’s eyes are blooming and he couldn’t even see Yan Mingxiu’s face, Wang Yudong’s image hovered before his gaze as his eyes filled with pain, anything is obviously possible during this peacetime, how then did he not clearly think about it? Just because Yan MingXiu is Wang Yudong’s little nephew?Why did Yan MingXu stay with him? Why did he always like to do it from the back? Why did he get dead drunk on Wang Yudong’s engagement day? Now everything clearly has an answer.

Zhou Xiang only felt a sharp knife in his heart and his body dripping with blood all the way from his head to his feet.

He never felt so much pain before.

He can accept that Yan MingXu does not like him, even if he does not like him for a lifetime, but for him to take him as a…...substitute?

Zhou Xiang is not only deeply hurt, but also tastes unprecedented humiliation.
In every aspect, he cannot compare to Wang Yudong, he can only be pointed at in the nose and mocked when referring to the other person, for the sake of his livelihood, he could only bear the humiliation as there is no other means, but he is already substituting for Wang Yudong in his drama, outside of this, for what reason does he have to be demanded to replace and act as Wang Yudong’s substitute. After all, what does he owe Wang Yudong for him to endure such humiliation!

Zhou Xiang has never been trampled on like this in all his life, and simply didn’t know how he ought to react.

He pushed Yan Mingxiu hard, feeling like he was losing his head, he ran out and escaped from his own home.

He aimlessly drove his car, tumbling around the cold peaceful night street, he was utterly disordered and as he became more flustered, he had no idea where he should go.
His eyes gradually blurred, he could not clearly see ahead, without a better option, he was forced to park his car at the roadside, the heating in the car was quite sufficient, yet, he still felt very cold and his mouth tasted a bit salty. He hasn’t shed tears in many years. His former life was tranquil and contented and he rarely experienced any fluctuations in his emotions. This year of knowing Yan Mingxiu, he has experienced a variety of anxiety, yearning, lovesickness, suspicion, fretting, irritability, and sadness all over.
It is shameful to mention; how could he fall in love and hope to be with a person who is ten years younger than himself?

He was thoroughly played, regardless of the kind of efforts he makes, Yan MingXiu would not like him, from the beginning to the end, Yan Mingxiu’s eyes always saw Wang Yudong through him. He, Zhou Xiang would not be reflected in Yan MingXiu’s eyes and it is highly unlikely that he would be reflected in his heart.

He had no chance from the beginning, but he still stupidly fantasized for a year.
Zhou Xiang, you’re really stupid ah!

He wiped the tears on his face and looked at the dimly lit street at a loss. His heart felt extremely unwell, he was at a loss as to what he should do.
He sincerely likes Yan Mingxiu, but Yan Mingxiu treats him as someone else in his bitter life, and this person is someone he is extremely disgusted. At the thought of this, he felt his heart and lungs would explode.

A sports car swooshed past on the opposite lane and the shrill sound of brakes abruptly rang out and echoed in the empty street of the night.
Zhou Xiang thought a car accident had occurred and violently turned his head back, but he discovered that the car had only violated the rules and he directly turned his head to the side.

Zhou Xiang looked through the window and saw Lanxi, who was wearing only a sweater, jumped out of the car and walked over to his car. Zhou Xiang quickly wiped his face and opened the door.

Lanxi’s face appeared hesitant to approach, when he saw Zhou Xiang, he was surprised to say “Xiang ge, is it really you? I just thought your car looked familiar when I drove past. What did you stop at the roadside for in the middle of the night? A lot of robbery occurs in this area at night.

Zhou Xiang softly said: “Drink a bit of liquor and take a break”
Lanxi approached and discovered that Zhou Xiang was not quite right. Although his body did give off a smell of alcohol, but he did not look drunk at all, but looking at his red swollen eyes, only Yan MingXiu could cause him to be this sad and downcast.

Lanxi wrinkled his eyebrows and strode over, he reached out a hand to touch Zhou Xiang’s eyes and his heart was greatly alarmed “Xiang ge, what’s going on?” What could possibly make an optimistic and open-minded person run out in the middle of the night, crying on the street?

Zhou Xiang felt embarrassed and lowered his head, “it’s nothing, you should go to your car and put on some clothes, lest you catch a cold”.
Lanxi pinched his chin and forced him to raise his head, he angrily said “In the end, you’re an idiot, what the hell is going on?”

Zhou Xiang waved his hand, “don’t worry about me, I will go back first”
LanXi grabbed his shoulders and pressed him against the car in a firm grasp, he snapped “Did you quarrel with your little boyfriend? So you ran out in the middle of the night? Why don’t you just make him leave? That is your family home!”

(T/N: for once I agree with Lanxi..Xiang'er, you should just kick that idiot to mars ah..)

“Don’t make wild guesses……”

“Hmph, I think I guessed right” LanXi had a trace of sadness in his eyes, “Xiang ge, you can cry because of him, are you still the Xiang ge I know?”

Zhou Xiang sighed, he didn’t want to see anyone right now, let alone be confronted and questioned by other people. He wanted to push LanXi away, “you, don’t you care about the seniority order? I want to be alone for a while, do you not see me?”

LanXi Rong however refused to let him go, “No I don’t care, I can’t see it, you go with me to my house”

“I won’t go XiXi, I will say it again, let me go” Zhou Xiang already felt embarrassed and annoyed, he just wanted to hide away.

“If I don’t let go? You want to hit me?” LanXi Rong did not cower at all and gazed unflinchingly at Zhou Xiang, “You want to hit me then go ahead, I won’t stop you, I really do owe you a beating”

Zhou Xiang saw that his lips were frozen and his mouth had turned pale, emitting cold air. He couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable in his heart, however, at the moment, he really did not have the inclination to deal with him.

Zhou Xiang sadly hung his shoulders and said with a sigh “Xi Rong, let me go, at this moment, I really just want to be alone, ge feels embarrassed enough thinking of you, I’m asking you, can you leave me alone?”

LanXi Rong touched his hand and trembled. His heart was unwilling but was helpless and there was no other way, looking at Zhou Xiang’s dazed look, his heart seized.

Zhou Xiang pushed him away, turned to enter the car, closed the door and drove the car off at lightning speed.

In the rearview mirror, he could still see Lanxi Rong standing in the same place watching him until he disappeared around the curve.

Zhou Xiang wandered about the night, he could not sleep, neither was he clear-headed, in the end, he drove the car to the company and stayed for two hours. At that time, the sky was already bright. When the company opened the doors, he went to CaiWei’s office and lied on the sofa to rest.

Around nine o’clock, Cai Wei arrived and when he entered, he saw him and was shocked.
Zhou Xiang didn’t fall asleep at all; his body was awfully tired but he was unable to sleep regardless. When he heard movements, he sat up, “Wei ge”.

Cai Wei looked at him in surprise, “what’s going on?”

He looked at Zhou Xiang’s tired and desolate appearance which was obviously not normal in the least.

Zhou Xiang is not afraid of Cai Wei making fun of him, “I quarreled with him. I came out to calm down a bit”.

Cai Wei "Oh”, he didn't regard this as a big deal. Two men, when together, it is also not impossible to quarrel. He looked at this kind of appearance and it is indeed fresh, he also teased: "I haven't seen you like this since you were a youngster. Hey, still crying? How big is this matter ah! when I just married your sister-in-law (Cai Wei’s wife, not necessarily related to Zhou Xiang), we had a big fight for two days in a row within a three-day period, now I’m managing fine and it’s easier” Cai Wei still habitually patted Zhou Xiang’s head.

These words did not comfort Zhou Xiang at all, he was incapable of telling Cai Wei the truth about the events of last night, he dares to guarantee that it will be indeed intolerable for anyone. Up till now, there was still a buzzing sound in his head and his mind was unable to concentrate, he felt his heart had been pulled out and it hurts.

Cai Wei looked at his motionless stony appearance and realized that it seems not to be an ordinary quarrel, he at once set aside the joking attitude, he quietly asked, “is it serious?”

Zhou Xiang shook his head. "Wei Ge, don't ask, can I stay here for a while?"

“Ah, OK, you can stay I guess” Cai Wei poured him some hot water “drink, your lips are cracked”
Zhou Xiang held the cup and looked absent mindedly at the floor.

Cai Wei looked at this attitude and is afraid that perhaps, the two people are breaking up, he at once wanted to shift his attention, he truly is unfamiliar with this Zhou Xiang’s appearance. He asked “Has chief Wang contacted you these days?”

Zhou Xiang shook his head, and he remembered chief Wang.

Cai Wei sighed and scolded “he said that he contacted you, you didn’t answer the phone. In fact, I just wanted to let you know it is Wang Dao’s movie. Wang always said the director is very optimistic about you and let you decide yourself”

Zhou Xiang groaned “What? Decide what? What do I decide?”

"It is for you to decide whether to act or not. It is reckoned that the two surnamed Wang can't convince each other, and they don't want to offend the other party, so they have pushed the decision to you."

Zhou Xiang felt his head would explode, he swallowed his saliva with difficulty and barely managed to clear his head “This, let me decide? I don’t know……”
Cai Wei looked at him seriously. "Zhou Xiang, you can't help but know, you have to make a decision."

Zhou Xiang smiled bitterly “Wei Ge, I really don’t have the mood now, I really don’t know if I should act, to be honest, I’m a little scared”.

Cai Wei resolutely patted his back “You couple can quarrel but you also must not delay your important business ah! This matter however directly affects your future; you must place it as priority to consider”

Zhou Xiang reluctantly retrieved his spirit, he is also aware that Cai Wei’s words are reasonable, if love is gone life still has to continue regardless, he asked: “Wei Ge, what do you think I should do?”

Cai Wei’s eyes were firm “act”

“act?”

"Yes, you must act. Just like I said last time, you have already offended Wang Yudong. Whether you act or not, the other day's events have already spread out. Everyone knows that you are in the position of Wang Yudong, what is Wang Yudong’s status in the entertainment circle? what is your status, do you think someone will look for you in the future? Who wants to offend Wang Yudong for you? This has already become a foregone conclusion. At this time, if you don’t act, you will completely disappear from the circle, but If you act, maybe you can be popular. Wang and Wang Dao will hold you, especially Wang Dao. I see the old man’s attitude. Wang Yudong will surely insist on making you lose everything. You act, even if it was not popular, at least there are also a lot of rewards.in the future, if you can’t mix in the circle, you can also invest in other businesses, so you can't give up this opportunity."

This sentence spoken by Cai Wei is reasonable, especially the phrase “let Wang Yudong discard people after using them” Zhou’s Xiang’s heartbeat immediately accelerated.

He took on Wang Yudong’s role, Wang Yudong must be upset ba, from the start, he always thought Zhou Xiang was merely to act as a substitute Wang Yudong, now, his status has changed to acting a leading role and their roles have been swapped. Even if it is only a drama, Zhou Xiang felt delighted. Even if in Yan MingXiu’s eyes he will only be a substitute for Wang Yudong in this lifetime, this substitute can also rub Wang Yudong’s face in filth this time.

Zhou Xiang finally experienced a burst of warped pleasure.

Even if it’s not for anything else but to be able to speak in front of Wang Yudong and be able to raise his face a little when facing Wang Yudong without so much humility and pain, Zhou Xiang was also willing to take on this role he has yet to grasp.

His heart unconsciously trembled, how much he would like to see, what kind of expression Yan MingXiu would have when he finds out that he grabbed his favorite Dong ge leading role.

He, Zhou Xiang only served as a stunt substitute for Wang Yudong, and he did not want to be a substitute for him even outside the show!

Cai Wei asked: “are you properly considering it?”

Zhou Xiang turned to look at him and said a distinct line: “Wei Ge, I will act”
