BXBX NOVEL Chapter 299 - B2.2
Yunyu used the bus to go to the movie set, and after he arrived, he called Aunt Yuanjun, "Aunty, I am already on the movie set. Where should I go next?"
"Ah, I\'m glad that you are not late. We\'re still on the way. I will call the security to let you enter Long Shen\'s room. Don\'t forget to check the room before we come," Aunty Yuanjun said on the call. After Aunty Yuanjun hung up the phone, Yunyu waited patiently until a security guard approached him.
"You are Tian Dong, right?" the security guard asked.
Yunyu immersed himself into acting again, and he nodded, "Yes, uncle, I am Tian Dong. Mr. Long Shen\'s assistant manager."
The security guard checked his phone and nodded, "Okay, come with me."
They went to a room inside the building where the shooting would start. There was a room reserved for Long Shen since he was the male lead of this heartbreaking drama. The security guard unlocked the door and let Tian Dong entered the room to check the surrounding.
The security guard left Tian Dong alone in this room. Tian Dong looked around the room. The first thing he did was to check the surrounding of any hidden camera that might have been set by crazy fans or people who wanted to record Long Shen and sell his video online.
Pupa materialized in front of Yunyu and asked, "You seem to be very proficient when searching for a hidden camera. Did you do this often in your real world?"
"Hm… as the president of Han Ye Fanclub, although he never recognizes me, I always make sure that his room is safe from crazy fans or malicious people who want to video him," Yunyu replied while he continued searching just in case.
"How could you gain access to his rooms, though? Are you one of those crazy fans?" Pupa asked again.
"No, I don\'t pry on his privacy. His manager, Aunty Xing, knows me and my status as Han Ye\'s Fanclub president. So she let me help her by sweeping the room in case of suspicious items. Though, most of the time, it is a thankless job. But I\'m happy as long as Han Ye is safe," Yunyu answered.
"… has Han Ye ever noticed you when you are his biggest fan?"
"Hm… honestly, no. Han Ye never see me as someone special. In fact, I think he hates me. I think Han Ye actually knows that I am his biggest fan but decided to cast me out and ignore me. Whenever I went to his fansign, he always has that sour face whenever he saw me. So that\'s why I always asked my fellow fan friend to bring the merch I bought for Han Ye for him to sign."
"I don\'t want to ruin his mood by showing my face," Yunyu replied. He looked a bit sad and actually pitiful.
"Why are you dedicating your whole life to a jerk like him then? I\'ve read your background and noticed that you often starve so you can buy his expensive merch," Pupa commented. Even a machine like Pupa also felt pity for Yunyu.
Yunyu shook his head and shrugged, "I am alright. Maybe because I\'ve accepted his treatment. You know what I said before, Pupa? I don\'t know what this feeling is, but whenever I see Han Ye of my world. I will keep supporting him. He doesn\'t need to be with me, but as long as he is happy, even with someone else, then I am alright."
"… You are hurting yourself," Pupa said.
"I am, but it is alright for him…" Yunyu smiled bitterly. "Love is truly blind, don\'t you think?"
Yunyu continued sweeping the room and took away any sharp objects like fruit knife or scissors, so Long Shen wouldn\'t be able to kill himself instantly again. He was deep in his world, thinking about Han Ye and all his mistreatment towards him, that he didn\'t hear Pupa\'s warn.
"Long Shen is here!" Pupa said before turning invisible again.
Yunyu was still dazed when the door was opened.
"WHO ARE YOU!?" Long Shen yelled at Tian Dong, who was busy checking the drawer. He saw that Tian Dong was holding a knife and scissor. Long Shen thought it was another malicious fan trying to record him or hurt him in some way because of their crazy obsession. He gritted his teeth and rushed towards unsuspecting Tian Dong.
Long Shen pushed Tian Dong to the floor, "Ah!"
Tian Dong grimaced as his back hit the floor. Long Shen picked the scissor on the floor and pointed it at Tian Dong, who was still grimacing in pain. Long Shen\'s eyes were dark because he was irritated whenever he saw those kinds of crazy fans.
"Who are you, and why are you in my room?" Long Shen asked with scissor pointing at Tian Dong\'s neck. Tian Dong recovered after a while and was immediately terrified when Long Shen pointed the scissor at him.
"B—Big brother, I am Tian Dong, your new assistant manager," Tian Dong said. He glanced at the scissor and was panicked immediately. "B—Brother, please don\'t hurt me. I am here to sweep your room in case of any hidden cameras and dangers."
Long Shen squinted at Tian Dong suspiciously. He threw away the scissor and stood up. He fixed his shirt and looked around his room. Indeed, this guy named Tian Dong actually cleaned some suspicious stuff inside the room.
But why would he also take away the scissor and fruit knife?
"Why are you holding the scissor and knife?" Long Shen asked, full of wary.
"Ah… that…"
[Pupa, I cannot tell him about my real identity?]
[Pupa: You cannot. Actually, I don\'t know either. But based on the world background, there is a line saying that Tian Dong and Long Shen are lovers in this world. This means that your identity in this backup world was Tian Dong to fill the Ragemeter in your previous life.]
[Pupa: Treat this world just like a regular world where you need to keep your acting. I still don\'t know what would happen if you restart in a backup world. It\'s too risky.]
[Aish, you never make it easy for me, don\'t you?]
Tian Dong gulped and reasoned, "I—I just think this might be too dangerous. So I want to put it somewhere…"
Long Shen peered, actually, after he knew that he had failed again. He wanted to just use the scissor to kill himself and try again, just like the last time. But since the scissor and knife had been confiscated by Tian Dong, he also lost his motivation to kill himself immediately.
\'Maybe I will have to wait, maybe after this guy leaves the room. I can just jump from the window. This is the eleventh floor, after all. It is a guaranteed death,\' Long Shen planned.
He decided to let the guy off and sat on his bed, playing his phone while waiting for this new guy to leave. But strangely, this guy wouldn\'t leave him alone.
Tian Dong stood near the windowsill like an idiot while staring at Long Shen attentively. Long Shen was disturbed by his new assistant manager and asked, "Why are you standing there? Are you sure you are not one of those crazy fans?"
"Ah, no, Brother Long. I am your new assistant manager," Tian Dong replied.
"Then why are you here? There is no problem, right? Leave now!" Long Shen said while eyeing the window behind Tian Dong. Long Shen started calculating the time when he would die after he fell from such height. He was not afraid of the pain, but he thought he would repeat the time again if he died in the same position and time. Thus, he was thinking about a variation.
Because he had fallen from this height for three times already, and none of those brought him back to James Grind. It was only the pain of death that he experienced over and over.
Tian Dong seemed to understand what Long Shen was seeing. He moved a bit to block Long Shen\'s view of the window.
Long Shen was irritated by this guy\'s creepy behaviour. He walked towards Tian Dong and pulled Tian Dong\'s collar. He flung Tian Dong like a ragdoll to the wall and shouted, "Leave now you useless trash! You are an eyesore!"
Tian Dong whimpered when Long Shen literally threw him like a doll to the wall. He used the table to propped himself back up and shook his head, "B—Brother Long, I will stay… I have to stay."
