Chapter 99

At the same time he heard the familiar chirp, Gu Huai could feel that his finger was caught by something cold. When he looked down, he unexpectedly saw a small silver tail.

When the youth looked over, the round cub fluttering in his arms raised its head and chirped again, gathering up its small silver wings which were not large enough to support it for long-distance flight.

He was very familiar with this form of his lover. Gu Huai continued to hold him steadily under the gaze of the cub in his arms, but his eyes were a little helpless.

Feeling that the round cub in his arms was very likely to make trouble for him, Gu Huai looked down at the cub, who was narrowing his vertical pupil while nesting in his arms, and, inexplicably and somewhat funnily, gently hooked his tail around his finger.

He could feel his tail being gently pulled down, but the cub did not take back his silver tail, which was wrapped around the young man’s finger, instead continuing to lean his head back and arch his body into the young man’s arms.

These series of situations thoroughly confused the four black balls that first followed the youth.

It was true that they were in their childhood. The thoughts of these four black balls were relatively simple. They were now hunched over the shoulders of the youth. Their wide eyes were filled with doubts.

First of all, they didn’t know where the surrounding black balls, which were bigger than they seemed, came from. Furthermore, these large nightmares were different from them. Obviously, should be the type that had been reborn and could shape shift. They did not know why they all seemed to be the same as them.

In their childhood, the Nightmares were black and round, with no hands or legs. Their movements were limited to floating and jumping. They could not shape shift to the human form at all. Therefore, the four black balls in their infancy could not understand the behaviors of their fellows Nightmares.

“Squeak...” The four young Nightmares on the youth’s shoulders were observing the round cub in their king’s arms. The more they looked at it, the more they doubted it.

Why was there an extra white one that looked different from them and cried differently???

At present, there were many questions in the hearts of the four black balls, but as obedient cubs, they didn’t make any noise.

As long as their king likes it. Taking this as the first criteria, these young nightmares continued to gather up their bodies and stayed on the shoulders of youth steadily.

Compared to the simple thought of the four little black balls, the big balls pretending to be cubs obviously thought more about it. For example, they had completed the basic negotiation with the white cub in the young man’s arms in a short period of time.

Gu Huai sat at the head of the bed with the script in his hands and began to read. During that time, he allowed the black balls clamber on him, but his lap was firmly occupied by a round white cub.

Among the three scripts, Gu Huai first looked closely at “The Elephants”. He had read about the plot before, and his initial impression of the script was pretty good.

In the room, a group of black balls were reading the script with the youth. Gu Huai found that the round cub lying on his legs seemed to have the same intention, so he picked up the cub who was chirping at him.

[Zhuxiang] was a martial arts movie. From Gu Huai’s perspective as a screenwriter, the plot of this script was set on a horizontal line, with a good degree of lightness, which meant it was a little bit weak in meaning.

The flow of the emotional arc was also OK. The eldest young lady of an aristocratic family met the fake and unrestrained prodigal son when she was in the Jianghu. He had never touched a girl’s hands. He only pretended to be cynical on the surface. In fact, he took take her feelings very seriously.

Gu Huai was very fond of the hero, because he had a more three-dimensional character. But reviewing the script, Gu Huai suddenly heard a cold voice from his system.

“This script is not recommended.”

At almost the same time, Gu Huai felt the round cub he was holding move. When he looked down, the small silver tail behind the cub was slightly raised, and even the small silver wings on his back were fluttering.

“Chirp, chirp -!” In order to attract the young man’s attention, the cub flapped his wings, which he wasn’t able to fly with yet.

No matter how many points could be given to the script, Yan Lin would now give the script a negative score.

Gu Huai was puzzled and put down the script first. He held the cub flapping its wings in his arms and felt its wings that were similar to tiny dragon wings.

Making sure he didn’t accidentally let the cub in his arms fall to the ground, Gu Huai then asked silently, “System?”

What was the reason for not recommending it? Gu Huai had some doubts at this point.

The system roughly repeated its words with a cold voice, “Dramas with kissing and bed scenes are not suitable, so it is not recommended to choose this one.”

Gu Huai had to think after hearing that from his system. At that time, he suddenly felt his arms were empty. The round cub he held firmly in his hand jumped out and landed straight on top of the script he had just put down.

Holding the script firmly with his body, the cub’s eyes were light gold, and the small silver tail behind him swayed gently.

Gu Huai couldn’t help having a subtle feeling. He always felt that his system and his ChuChu’s responses seemed to have a subtle synchronization from time to time.

Gu Huai vaguely realized something in his heart. The soft, cool touch on his wrist interrupted his thoughts. It was the round cub who was pressing his body on the script trying to hook his tail around Gu Huai’s wrist.

The script should be rejected and youth should be restrained. This greedy idea was put into practice by a young cub. There were difficulties.

“Chirp.” After finishing this, the young cub narrowed its pale golden pupils and looked up at the black haired youth who was encircled by his tail, and chirped in satisfaction.

“I won’t choose this script, don’t crush it.” Gu Huai touched the cub’s back and spoke in a slightly helpless tone.

In fact, Gu Huai thought that kissing scenes could be shot in different angles. Bed scenes were really a problem. Even if a double would be used, Gu Huai still didn’t want to act it.

His hands felt soft and fluffy. Gu Huai couldn’t help but touch it a few times. In winter, his ChuChu may be a natural hand warming treasure.

“Squeak -” a group of black balls, moving around, found their king’s preferences, and then they surrounded the youth.

They were also very touchable, fluffy and soft!

Surrounded by a group of balls, Gu Huai looked at the other two scripts while reaching out to pat their heads one by one. According to this situation, when winter came, Gu Huai felt he could harvest a room full of hand warmers.

Of the remaining two scripts, one was a romantic TV series and the other was a detective movie. Due to scheduling conflict, Gu Huai could only choose one of the two. After considering for a while, Gu Huai finally chose the latter.

“Squeak, squeak!” The rows of black balls sitting around the youth continue to squeak. When the movie made by their king was released, they wanted all the employees of their company to go to the cinema to support their king, and all of them would have a day off.

Thinking about this, the black balls in the room had begun to think about this plan. They could market the movie. Even if it was not well made, they could pay for the box office promotion. Anyway, they would love to spend the money, and no one could stop them.

Just after choosing the script, Gu Huai received a call from his agent.

“Xiao Huai, if you receive any information now, don’t worry about it ... don’t make any public response until our public relations draft comes out.” On the other side of the phone, Jingcen’s voice was still calm. The new company had hired a professional public relations team, which made her more confident now.

Jingcen thought that it was only when her artist offended someone or blocked someone’s way, that someone deliberately aimed at them, and deliberately spread news mixed with real and fake information.

The source said that the youth was an orphan. He grew up in a welfare home when he was young. He frequented same-sex bars in order to earn tuition and living expenses during his college years. It was also said that many people from the university he went to, knew this.

There was no real weight to the second half of the accusations, but the person who released the first half of the accusations took out some pictures that could be used as evidence.

There was no evidence that youth had gone to same-sex bars, and rational people on Weibo still had a reserved attitude towards this. However, there were many people who took the opportunity to talk about the fact that there was already evidence that he was an orphan.

What was unexpected was that the youth was so bright on the screen yet his family background was the opposite, his home situation had been so poor and miserable.

Gu Huai responded well on the phone. He took a look at the Weibo post and got the general idea of the situation.

Gu Huai was not afraid of being slandered for something he hadn’t done. As for his birth, people couldn’t choose their origins. Gu Huai didn’t think there was anything bad about being an orphan. He was raised in the same way in his original world. But he also became a successful screenwriter and carried home all the big trophies, admired by countless peers.

Compared with the calmness of the involved party, the black balls around the youth were not calm at this time.

Squeak, squeak???

Was their king an orphan?? Did these people think they were dead?!
