The two had a great time as soon as they arrived at Bubble Star.
There’s a chance of being sucked-in into a ‘Love Planet’s’ romantic atmosphere even if you are not in love, let alone two people who are in love.
Xie Jianwei is actually not an old-fashioned and restrained person, but the impression he gave to most people is as such— that he only knows how to strategize and mundane things such as falling in love, are far beneath him.
But he never cared about what others think of him, since their opinions doesn’t represent who he really is.
However, Xie Jianwei was reflecting upon himself now. As the saying goes ‘sometimes not all rumors and stories are unfounded’. If he really doesn’t have such tendency, why would anyone think of him like this?
Thinking about it it carefully, perhaps, perhaps what he and Lu Li had in the past were nothing but a trite love, a romance without deep substance. Being truly immersed in their love? He didn’t have the chance to do so.
It could be said that it’s because he did too much— he was too busy obtaining the world during those years, that he didn’t have time for others things. However, those actions were so that he could offer it all—the world— to Lu Li. But no one would think that.
Including Lu Li himself.
.
.
.
Xie Jianwei was a little tired by time afternoon came.
Lu Li asked him: “Let’s go home?”
“I heard that the fireworks here are beautiful.” Xie jianwei answered.
“Then let’s stay here overnight and depart tomorrow.”
“But tomorrow is Lorren’s birthday.”
“That’s not a problem. Let’s go straight to the celebration after leaving here.”
Xie Jianwei thought about it and also felt that the plan was feasible: “Then, let’s have dinner at The Lovesick Feast.”
It’s the name of a famous restaurant in Bubble Star. Although it was named as such, the main attraction to this restaurant is quite the opposite: couples wouldn’t suffer from lovesickness anymore after eating there, as per the rumors say.
Xie Jianwei hadn’t experienced it before, and now he was hoping to he wouldn’t suffer from it while he’s in Lu Li’s dreams.
“Okay.” Lu Li agreed at once.
.
.
.
During their dinner, fireworks exploded like flowers upon the night sky.
Fireworks in this era are now environmentally friendly and do not cause pollution, but they are more beautiful than ever. People have already seen countless stars because interstellar travel is now possible, but they’re still full of praises for these fireworks. It’s truly something that couldn’t be even described with mere beautiful words.
Xie Jianwei had been in a good mood all day long, but during their ‘nightly activities’, Lu Li wanted him to grant some “little requests”.
And unfortunately, when he didn’t comply, the Lord Marshal became abeast and pounced on him endlessly….
If Xie Jianwei could bear to beat him, then the Marshal might have already turned into a swollen pig.
.
.
.
When Xie Jianwei woke up the next day, his whole body was throbbing with pain. Coincidentally, Lu Li also woke up the moment he opened his eyes.
Xie Jianwei raised his hands and squeezed Lu Li’s face: “Don’t think that I will play with you next time.” His voice was hoarse because of how fierce the latter was, last night.
Lu Li froze for a moment, and his eyes went out of focus.
Xie Jianwei groaned in his heart, knowing that more or less, another personality had switched with the Lu Li he was with until last night.
Lu Li looked around quietly, and a glimmer of darkness rose in his eyes.
Xie Jianwei pretended that he didn’t notice anything. He was planning on getting up from the bed and start dressing himself, but as soon as he stood up, the traces on his body were revealed. What was even more troublesome was that he didn’t have time to clean up down there, therefore the sticky fluids Lu Li left inside him last night trailed down along his thighs.
The scene was extremely erotic. Lu Li’s throat tightened, but then a fire called jealousy ignited in his heart.
He couldn’t help pushing Xie Jianwei onto the bed.
This is Bubble Star, a well-known dating location.
What did we do yesterday?
Why did Ah-Wei accompany me here?
Ah- Wei has never visited this planet with me!
Thinking of those sweet pictures, his jealousy-filled heart froze.
He couldn’t remember anything, he didn’t know anything, and he didn’t know which one of them was so lucky— so lucky to have such a beautiful day with Xie Jianwei!
But he had to pretend that he knows. I don’t know anything at all, but I have to pretend to remember.
Xie Jianwei closed his eyes. He was also feeling complicated deep inside.
He had to quickly cure Lu Li’s illness, but it’s too difficult to conduct the treatment in their real world. There’s no guarantee that the personalities would cooperate, and even if they did, what if in the middle of the treatment another Lu Li switched back? The current treatment session would be gone to waste and might even make things worse. (t/n: since all personalities don’t want to disappear, and as we know they’re pretending that they don’t switch. They don’t want Xie Jianwei to know.)
Xie Jianwei tried not to mention yesterday’s events to stimulate today’s Lu Li, and the latter was also pretending that he knew what was going on, trying to make Xie Jianwei remain happy.
********
Admiral Lorren is the Marshal’s trusted aide so his birthday banquet was very lively.
When Yan Ke met Xie Jianwei, he struck a conversation first: “My Lord, did you have fun yesterday?”
Xie Jianwei glanced at the Lu Li who’s still dying with jealousy and shook his head: “Some person almost killed himself with drinking excessive vinegar.” (t/n: vinegar= slang for jealousy. )
Yan Ke’s eyes glanced around: “Lord Marshal also has it hard.” Although he said that, his heart was obviously floating in the clouds while watching the pretty girls present in the celebration.
Xie Jianwei waved his hand: “Go and play. Let’s wait for the banquet to end before we continue Lu Li’s treatment.”
Yan Ke’s eyes lit up, “I’ll go first!”
""
Just as Yan Ke walked away, Lorren came over and he started talking to Xie Jianwei: “The relationship between my Lord and Doctor Yan is really good, huh..,”
Xie Jianwei said: “It’s just okay.”
Lorren secretly looked at Lu Li and casually whispered, “How is the Boss’ illness?” He is sworn brothers with Lu Li, and they’re really close on a personal level.
“It’s good. It’s not something that could hinder Lu Li’s daily life.” answered Xie Jianwei.
“That’s not okay… their memories are interlinked, but if one day they find each other not pleasing to their eyes anymore…” (t/n: Only Yan Ke and Xie Jianwei knows about the treatment and also about how bad Lu Li’s condition really is.)
Xie Jianwei glanced at him.
“Boss is sometimes very stubborn, especially in things involving you. So thinking about it, if they don’t have the same memories of spending time with you, they’ll definitely get jealous with each other to death.” Lorren said anxiously.
You really know your boss, Xie Jianwei murmured to himself.
“I don’t know how to treat his illness.” Lorren added as he sighed.
Xie Jianwei thoughtfully moved the topic and asked him: “By the way, how was your investigation last time?”
Lorren said: “Nothing was found. At that time, the boss bombarded the Hundred-Limbed King into dust, not even a foot was left. It’s only expected that there’s nothing left.”
Xie Jianwei frowned slightly. He wanted to ask more, but Lu Li came over: “What are you two talking about?”
“The Military Advisor asked me to check something a while ago.”
Lu Li looked at Xie Jianwei: “About what? “
Xie Jianwei said, “It’s nothing.”
He didn’t say anything and Lu Li didn’t insist on asking.
As the birthday star, Lorren was very busy. Many people came to celebrate, and he had to go and greet each of them.
Lu Li didn’t stay at the banquet for too long. As long as here’s there, the he would just steal the birthday celebrant’s limelight and secondly, the whole crowd was very restrained in his presence.
Lu Li left, and Xie Jianwei would leave with him, as expected. The two returned to the Capital Star after the banquet. Although Lu Li was in disguise, there were still too many flaws. Perhaps he was still feeling sour about their date at the Bubble Star, so his attitude has not been too good.
In fact, it would be very easy for Xie Jianwei to coax him. The only problem is that perhaps after painstakingly coaxing this Lu Li, another alter of Lu Li would wake up the next morning, And once that Lu Li realized what Xie Jianwei did just to coaxed the previous Lu Li…..the vicious cycle would repeat all over again.
********
The next day, after Yan Ke came back, he and Xie Jianwei arranged the next treatment in full swing.
“Why are you so anxious?” Yan Ke asked
After Xie Jianwei explained the situation, Yan Ke paused, and after his brief silence came the words: “My teeth are rotting from sweetness….”
Xie Jianwei murmured: “Where is it sweet?”
“Where? Marshal loves you so much he’s basically reeking of vinegar, surpassing all of his kind before! “
Xie Jianwei: “ … “
Yan Ke sighed, “I wish someone would love me like that.” Then he added, “Please be an F-cup.”
Xie Jianwei: “…..”
********
He was already accustomed to the feeling of entering a dreamscape, but Xie Jianwei woke up feeling a little bit uncomfortable this time. His head was dizzy— it seemed that he had drunk a lot of wine and the surroundings were messy based on the noise he was hearing.
Xie Jianwei faintly opened his eyes, and he saw that the person in front of him became two, then four— just like his Lu Big Li, who kept on splitting. He wanted to keep himself awake but the wine he drank was apparently strong, and it was all in vain no matter how hard he tried to focus.
He indistinctly felt someone supporting his body, and he heard a clean cut voice: “Brother Xie, are you okay? Do you want me to help you so you could go and rest somewhere?”
[Not the Marshal.] Yan Ke’s reminder sounded in time.
Xie Jianwei: “Hmm.” He could feel that it wasn’t Lu Li so he couldn’t just walk with this person. Who knows what would happen? But the thing is, he really drank too much and could barely stand.
The person who supported him said warmly: “Let’s go, I’ll help you …” then, he wounded an arm around Xie Jianwei’s waist…
Then, a “slap” sounded. The man who was whispering to XIe Jianwei was about to be angry, but when he glance at the culprit, he quickly apologized and bowed his waist with his forehead in cold sweat.
A handsome, imposing man in a suit whispered: “Give him to me.”
“O-okay.”
Xie Jianwei leaned into a familiar embrace.
Yan Ke exclaimed: [Oh my mother, the Marshal is so handsome!]
Xie Jianwei felt calm and comfortably snuggled in the man’s arms.
While Lu Li took Xie Jianwei away, a lot of discussion erupted at the banquet.
“He’s truly an evil fox.”
“Huh and those stinky men are fond of bitches like that.”
“You’re being sour? If you have the ability, then you go climb Film Emperor Lu’s bed, and your career will surely skyrocket high up to the clouds.” (t/n: sour ‘s equivalent is being salty/making acidic remarks)
“Who’s rare? Using that sort of trick to get to the top, doesn’t he feel dirty?“ (t/n: I think there’s a play on words there: sour= suan and rare= xihan; their pronunciations sounds almost the same, especially if you say it in a fast manner.)
There also people who were smitten, saying: “Don’t search for resources ah, just seek someone like the Film Emperor Lu!”
“First of all, you have to be a man and second, you have to be shameless slut—like that Xie person.”
Xie Jianwei drank too much and couldn’t hear these words clearly, but Yan Ke who did, couldn’t help but wipe his sweat.
.
.
.
Xie Jianwei’s mind was in a confused state.
He felt like his body was burning, and he felt like being unscrupulous after feeling Lu Li’s familiar embrace. Thinking about what happened outside the dream, he knows that Lu Li is still feeling distressed so he wanted to comfort him.
Lu Li turned him over again and again until the middle of the night. Xie Jianwei didn’t want to move anymore after doing it and just wanted to directly fall asleep in the man’s arms.
Lu Li called him: “Get up and wash.”
Xie Jianwei murmured: “Don’t want to.”
Lu Li frowned and called for his name again.
Xie Jianwei rubbed his face in Lu Li’s arm like a cat: “Stop being noisy, just sleep.”
""
Lu Li stared at him for a long time, and finally picked him up and took him to the bathroom to help him wash.
.
.
.
The next day, Xie Jianwei was woken up by the phone’s ringing. His head almost blew up because of the blaring sound. He didn’t care who made the call and just turned his phone off. As the surroundings returned to silence, Xie Jianwei continued sleeping.
After a while, he heard a series of screams: “Xie Jianwei, are you crazy? The crew waited for you for an hour and yet you didn’t show yourself! I couldn’t even connect to your phone! Director Li had gone mad, but you’re still sleeping here?” (t/n: This Director Lǐ {李) is not the same as Lu Lí (离))
Xie Jianwei’s was finally awake, and he opened his eyes to look at the person in front of him.
Xie Jianwei asked Yan Ke: [Is this you?]
Yan Ke, who was inside Xie Jianwei’s head, smiled bitterly: [It’s the Yan Ke of the Marshal’s impression of me…]
Even though he knows that the Marshal didn’t mean it to make such a blunder, he’s still lamenting that he was clearly named Yan Kē (颜柯), but the Marshal thought he was Yan Kè (颜可).
(t/n: I’m going to use [….] when the real world Yan Kē (颜柯) is the one speaking with XJW and for the dreamscape Yan Kè (颜可), it’ll be written in this = “….” plus that accent on his name since their names are really not distinguishable in English.)
The Yan Kè in front of Xie Jianwei was still in an explosive state: “Get up! Get up fast! A tiny star like you can’t go acting important like this! Forget about dumping Film Emperor Lu—If you didn’t have his backing, you would have been banned and blocked by people in a matter of minutes!”
Xie Jianwei head was hurting as he tried to sit up, so he didn’t notice that the collar of his clothes was too large, and the ambiguous kiss marks was clearly laid out in front of Yan Ke.
Yan Kè stared at him indignantly: “Who did you sleep with?”
Xie Jianwei: “…”
Yan Ke: [*cough* that’s not me! Not me!] Although we look exactly the same, but I’m not such a bad person!
Xie Jianwei felt that something was wrong with this dream, so he cautiously said: “Who else?”
Yan Kè was obviously quite familiar with him: “I already told you, can’t you have a little more integrity? Don’t just sleep with a man! Anyway, cut it off with Film Emperor Lu first, otherwise this … if it gets discovered … you wouldn’t be able to maintain your place in the entertainment industry anymore! This brother still wants his job you know!”
Xie Jianwei felt inexplicably wronged as he explained: “Last night I … “
“I don’t care what you did, but you should take it easy!”
Xie Jianwei : “…”
Yan Kè walked back and forth a few times and then said: “No. You better end things quickly with Lu Li. If you keep on messing around like this this, something will definitely happen!”
Xie Jianwei wanted to explain, but Yan Ke didn’t give him the chance to do so, “About that matter last time, I’ll get in touch later.”
Xie Jianwei: “… What ‘matter’?”
Yan Kè: “Bai Song should be quite happy, after all, it’s the Film Emperor Lu we’re talking about. Since you have the heart to set him up with someone else, I will arrange it for you. But…are you sure that Emperor Lu would accept it?”
Xie Jianwei: “… “ I have a bad hunch.
Sure enough, Yan Kè said again: “Well, it shouldn’t be a problem? Bai Song and you are the same type, so Film Emperor Lu ought to ‘eat’ that ‘bite’. Since you don’t want to sleep with him anymore, find a replacement.” He paused and took a breath, “It’s better than offending people and you going downhill in the future!”
Yan Ke took another deep breath: [Oh goodness… My Lord, this time …]
After sobering up, a pile of “memories” slowly filled Xie Jianwei’s head.
Very good, the screenplay is quite excellently prepared.
——A slag in the past, a slag even here.
The author has something to say:
“The affectionate, savage, Film Emperor Gong X heartless, fickle, Without-any-status Shou”
The chief lackey Mr. Long (t/n: same character as author’s surname) : Military Advisor, this script is very sweet!
Military Advisor Xie: Ha-ha.
The two had a great time as soon as they arrived at Bubble Star.
There’s a chance of being sucked-in into a ‘Love Planet’s’ romantic atmosphere even if you are not in love, let alone two people who are in love.
Xie Jianwei is actually not an old-fashioned and restrained person, but the impression he gave to most people is as such— that he only knows how to strategize and mundane things such as falling in love, are far beneath him.
But he never cared about what others think of him, since their opinions doesn’t represent who he really is.

Xie Jianwei: “… What ‘matter’?”
Yan Kè: “Bai Song should be quite happy, after all, it’s the Film Emperor Lu we’re talking about. Since you have the heart to set him up with someone else, I will arrange it for you. But…are you sure that Emperor Lu would accept it?”
Xie Jianwei: “… “ I have a bad hunch.
Sure enough, Yan Kè said again: “Well, it shouldn’t be a problem? Bai Song and you are the same type, so Film Emperor Lu ought to ‘eat’ that ‘bite’. Since you don’t want to sleep with him anymore, find a replacement.” He paused and took a breath, “It’s better than offending people and you going downhill in the future!”
Yan Ke took another deep breath: [Oh goodness… My Lord, this time …]
After sobering up, a pile of “memories” slowly filled Xie Jianwei’s head.
Very good, the screenplay is quite excellently prepared.
——A slag in the past, a slag even here.
The author has something to say:
“The affectionate, savage, Film Emperor Gong X heartless, fickle, Without-any-status Shou”
The chief lackey Mr. Long (t/n: same character as author’s surname) : Military Advisor, this script is very sweet!
Military Advisor Xie: Ha-ha.
