CFJTM Chapter 173. “Fans of the original novel don’t know anything about Han Cheng?” 

TN: As promised an extra chapter, thank you @VitaB for the ko-fi!

Forgot to add this in the tl notes but keep in mind that rose of versailles blooming means bragging whilst pretending to complain.


Shen Qingshu didn’t expect that she would ask such a question. Although he added scenes for Han Cheng privately, he always felt that no one would pay attention to the three to five minutes.

After all, there are him and Bai Xuege in this movie. They alone are enough to attract the eyes of Pink and Black fans. Who will pay attention to Han Cheng, which has only three to five minutes screen time?

But now, he found that someone will really pay attention ! ! !

She not only noticed, but also was curious, and dared to ask him who it was!

Shen Qingshu: …

Shen Qingshu can only praise Han Cheng in his heart. He deserves to be the main character, but he is eye-catching!

Even if there is only a little screen time, he can catch others’ eyes successfully!

“He is not an actor,” Shen Qingshu said calmly, “He’s a friend of mine named Han Cheng. When he visited the set, I invited him to play a guest role. Because he is not an actor, he is not included in the credit list, but his name is actually at the end of the credits, in the special thanks section.”

“Well, thank you, teacher Shen. Did he send the last [I’m back]?”

“This can’t be answered. It shall remain blank and be left to the imagination.”

Shen Qingshu chuckled, and motioned to another man who raised his hand to ask questions.

His answer was soon posted to the Internet by fans.

Fans screamed one by one, “Gege is so handsome ! ! ! Today’s gege is more beautiful than yesterday’s gege!”

“I really like my gege’s confidence, woo woo woo, it’s so charming!”

“Come on, “Ephemera”! Come on, gege!”

Melon eating netizens moved this video to the forum and posted: [Shen Qingshu answered that Su Qing’s friend who saw him off was not an actor, but a guest star by his friend].

Immediately, some netizens interested in this topic rushed into the post and clicked to watch the video.

“F*ck! He’s an amateur, not an actor!”

“Ah, ah, ah, such a handsome man is not a celebrity! This is too illogical!”

“Sure enough, handsome guys are friends with handsome guys, and even amateur friends are so handsome ! ! !”

“Not only handsome, but also has an extraordinary temperament. Is your friend planning on debuting? I am willing to support him!”

“Me too Me too ! ! !”

“Am I the only one who focuses on the special thanks? Shen Qingshu is quite caring, and he specially thanked him for three minutes of scene time. He should be a really good friend. Not to mention Bai Xuege, this amateur as well, they are all willing to show up to help him.”

“Although, I recalled that that friend only appeared twice, it should be more than three minutes. I feel that there was at least five minutes.”

“Was it only five minutes ? ? ? I thought this friend must appear for 50 minutes to generate all this discussion ! !”

“Hahahahahaha, what are you talking about upstairs? He said that his friend is an ordinary person and guest starred. How can he have 50 minutes screen time? But I really want to watch him for 50 minutes. He is so handsome and just looking at him is captivating enough!”

“Yes, yes, really handsome!”

“Speaking of which, I have only heard of special thanks before, but this is the first time I have seen such special thanks.”

“So Shen Qingshu created this for his friend? F*ck ! ! ! It’s so sweet!!”

“The crack specialist1 came here uninvited and has started to eat. Thank you!”

“Hahahaha, can this also be cracked? Is the essence of human beings really drugged chickens2 ?”

“Stop talking. I’m going to watch it a second time soon. I’ll pay attention to that special thank you!”

“Me too! Me too!”

Excited netizens soon bought tickets to prepare for the second brush of “Ephemera”, while on the other side, Han Cheng called his secretary into the office.

He looked at his secretary and said seriously, “Everyone has been working hard these days. You can buy some movie tickets online and send them to employees in all departments of the company, which is also a way for everyone to take time to relax.”

“How many?” asked the secretary.

Han Cheng thought for a moment, “Two for each person, no, four for each person. It’s just right for them to take friends or family to have fun.”

It is worthy of being diretor Han, he is so considerate!

“Understood.” The secretary nodded. “I’ll do it right away.”

“Wait a minute. I think the film “Ephemera” is very popular recently. You should buy tickets for this movie.”

Secretary: ? ? ?

“Only this movie? Not the kind that can be exchanged for any movie?”

“Of course not.” Han Cheng told him, “This one. Just buy this one. Don’t buy incorrectly.”

Secretary: … Why does he think the next sentence is, you will take responsibility if you buy it wrong! Is their director Han a fan of this film?

“Yes, I understand.” The secretary said and left the office.

The next morning, the entire Han Group received four movie tickets from top to bottom – these tickets can only be used to watch”Ephemera”.

Even Han Yu has received them.

“The secretary of President Han sent it to us, saying that we have been working hard recently, so please watch a movie to relax.” The assistant explained to him.

“Relax using these four tickets?” he must be able to relax several times!

“He said that employees could invite their family and friends to go together.” The assistant silently took out his movie tickets. “I also received four tickets. It is said that the whole company has received them.”

Han Yu: … As expected of his didi, he is good to his boyfriend!

He waved the assistant out of the office and called Han Cheng, “Do you want to see a movie?”

“Of course,” Han Cheng replied quickly, “I’ll treat you!”

“No, I have already received your movie ticket. Let’s use them.”

“How can we do that?” Han Cheng was reluctant. “I’ve booked a cinema. You can keep the movie tickets. We can watch it with our parents next time. It doesn’t matter.”

“Are you going to take our parents too?”

“Of course, if we are going to celebrate the New Year together this year, I should make preparations in advance.”

That’s true, Han Yu nodded slightly, “Then I’ll accompany you and our parents in two days.”

“No, let’s go today. We will watch the movie today and watch it again two days later. A good movie should be watched several times, each time will give something new!”

Han Yu: … Is this watching a movie ? ! !

I haven’t seen you watch the Oscars best movie winner twice. How many times do you need to watch a good movie now ? !

You are clearly a drunkard who cares not about the alcohol,3 but about the protagonist of the movie!

Han Yu was helpless. “Okay, I will watch it frequently and experience something new. I will watch my sister-in-law  often to find something new every time.”

“Who told you to look at your sister-in-law? Look at me. I am in the movie for a few minutes!”

Now, Han Yu is really interested, “Really? I’m looking forward to it~”

“Look forward, look forward, I am very handsome in it!”

Han Cheng hung up the phone proudly, thought for a while, and sent a message to his small group of four: [It’s my treat to watch a movie on Sunday.]

Yin Mingyao: [xiao Shen didi’s movie? I heard his movie was released.]

Zhou Jinming sent a photo directly: [Thank you, I’m in the movie theatre and have already seen it, but I really didn’t expect to see xiao Shen didi in a skirt, it looks pretty good, Lao Han, you are very lucky~]

Han Cheng: ! ! !

Han Cheng said: [What’s the difference between you and a cao thief 4! !]

Zhou Jinming: [I just appreciate xiao Shen didi normally, but I don’t want to steal him from his lover. So of course, I’m different from a cao thief. Not everyone is the same as you, male gender, likes males, likes male x male [funny]]

Han Cheng: [ … ]

Wu Yang hurriedly raised his hand: [I’ll go, I’ll go!]

Han Cheng: [I’ll go…]

Zhou Jinming: [Genuine straight man, who can appreciate males, is different from a man who loves men [funny].]

Wu Yang: [Don’t stir up the relationship between me and Lao Han. I just admire xiao Shen didi and don’t want to steal love!]

Wu Yang: [Lao Han, believe me!]

Han Cheng: Hehehe, hehehe.

Zhou Jinming: [F*ck ! ! What did I just see?]

Zhou Jinming: [[Picture. jpg]]

Zhou Jinming: [Lao Han, is that you? Why have you started acting?]

When Han Cheng saw the words and the corners of his lips could not help rising, like the blooming of roses of Versailles.

Han Cheng: [Don’t mention it, Shen Qingshu is really… He can’t live without me for a moment!!! Since he was producing his movie, he insisted on making me a character. He not only has to make me a character, but also implored me to play it! If I don’t play it, his movie will be incomplete, and his entire movie will be meaningless. Every time he thinks about it in the future he will feel regretful over his first movie.]

Han Cheng: [I didn’t want to appear in the movie. Why would I want to act, right? But he insisted on me acting, and I refused sternly several times. As a result, he was more patient than Liu Bei visiting the thatched cottage three times.5  Alas, I was helpless. I’m still depressed over it now!]

Zhou Jinming: [ … ]

Yin Mingyao: [ … ]

Wu Yang: [He really loves you!]

Han Cheng: [That’s right. He simply loves me too much. To the point of going overboard, I don’t need so much love. People should love themselves more. It’s really unnecessary to love me so much. The point is that it’s fine to express this love in private, yet he has to show it in his movie. I have to play his beloved person in the movie as well. It’s really unnecessary. There’s no need to make such a big show. It’s too overboard.]

Wu Yang: [Xiao Shen didi is so great. I like him very much!]

Han Cheng: [ ? ? ? What did you say?]

The system displays: Wu Yang withdrew a message.

Wu Yang: [Xiao Shen didi is so great. He loves you so much!]

Han Cheng was satisfied: [Alas, who is disagreeing, it’s just a little exasperating.]

After he finished, he found that Zhou Jinming and Yin Mingyao had never spoken, so he called them one by one and asked: [Why don’t you two talk?]

Zhou Jinming: [It’s all the fault of my careless mouth. I shouldn’t have asked this question, someone in the province started to pretend again!]

Yin Mingyao: [En that isn’t right, it’s not that we aren’t talking much, but you talk too much, the roses of Versailles are blooming again, why haven’t you learned your lesson at all!]

Han Cheng: …

Han Cheng: [Who is pretending! Can you call telling the truth, the blooming of the roses of Versailles ? !]

Zhou Jinming: [Tell the truth?]

Yin Mingyao: [Tell the truth?]

Wu Yang: [Isn’t it true?]

Zhou Jinming: … Did you really believe it ? ! Where are you bent! You look much more straight than me!

Yin Mingyao: … As expected of you, Wu Yang!

Han Cheng: Good brother, this is his real good brother!

Therefore, Han Cheng began to find Wu Yang to display his roses of Versailles alone.

Wu Yang: Cry with envy, ying.

After Han Cheng made a movie appointment with his friends, he went to the cinema with Han Yu after work.

This is the second time that Han Yu has seen Shen Qingshu’s film. He saw it once before when “Plundering Time” was released. At that time, he thought Luo Yi was very good, but in the end, he paid more attention to the leading role played by Meng Zhi. This time, when he watched Su Qing in the film, he felt for the first time that his future sister-in-law is amazing at acting!

Han Yu sighed and turned to talk with his didi. As soon as he turned his head, he saw that his didi was in tears and looking very pitiful.

Han Yu: ! ! !

Han Yu silently picked up his mobile phone. Han Cheng quickly grasped his mobile phone. “What are you doing?”

“Recording the precious moment of you shedding tears.” Han Yu said curiously, “I haven’t seen you cry much since you grew up.”

Han Cheng: ! ! !

You are not as caring as my wife!

When his wife saw his tears, he would silently hand him the tissues and comfort him.

Yet his ge ! ! !

His ge just wants to take a picture of his current shameful appearance!

Han Cheng was so angry that he grabbed Han Yu’s mobile phone. “Your mobile phone has been confiscated, you inhuman pervert.”

Han Yu: …

Han Yu negotiated politely with him, “Can’t I take one? Just one!”

Han Cheng turned to him and took a picture. “Every time you mention, I will take one more picture of you.”

Han Yu: …

Han Yu is silent. Alas, there is another good item missing from his collection.

Shen Qingshu saw Han Cheng’s WeChat message saying that he and Han Yu are going to see a movie together.

He just finished an activity. When he saw this WeChat message, he took a look at the time and thought that Han Cheng and Han Yu should have seen the second half of the film. He did not know how his family would evaluate his performance.

He was thinking about it when he heard Zhou Jianming exclaim, “F*ck, why is this so popular?”

“What?” Shen Qingshu asked.

Zhou Jianming handed him his mobile phone, and Shen Qingshu looked at the 10th place on the hot search, which has a rising symbol [Shen Qingshu in women’s clothes].

Shen Qingshu: ! ! !

“Who bought this hot search?” he exclaimed in surprise.

“I don’t know. It’s definitely not the production team’s side. This is the key point of the film. The publicity team has said from the beginning that it won’t promote this.”

“It should have been created by netizens spontaneously,” said Xiao Li.

Shen Qingshu covered his face, netizens really liked this kind of plot as always.

“Withdraw it, withdraw it.” he said to Zhou Jianming. “It’s too spoilery. “Withdraw it.”

Zhou Jianming immediately contacted people and began to withdraw the hot search.

The forum curiously discussed:

“Shen Qingshu in women’s clothes? Does Shen Qingshu wear women’s clothes in this movie? Is it beautiful?”

“Absolutely beautiful, but the plot is really, alas, let’s not talk about it, it will be a spoiler. Anyway, people who have watched the movie don’t want him to dress up in womens clothing.

“Yes, the women’s clothing plot is really sad. I don’t want him to wear women’s clothes. I hope Su Qing will never wear skirts again for the rest of his life.”

“However, one thing has to be said. Shen Qingshu’s women’s clothing is pretty good-looking, especially his legs, which are long and straight.”

“Wait a minute. Am I the only one who links Su Qing wearing women’s clothes and Su Qing seeing off his friends. They are very close, are they really just friends?”

“You’re not alone. I’m really curious about Su Qing’s sexual orientation. He grew up in such an environment. Are he and that friend just friends?”

“F*ck, I want to go to watch it again. I was not interested in the friend before, but now I want to pick out all the details!”

“Back after the second brush. The friend is so handsome, I also saw the special thank you mention. There was only one friend’s name, Han Cheng, but there was no mention of what the friend he played was called.”

“Wait, am I the only one who has noticed this familiar name? Han Cheng, Cheng Han, I don’t believe that the original novel fans have no other thoughts!”


TN: haha HC is another vest going to drop?

If you want to support me or faster releases here’s the link to my ko-fi

https://ko-fi.com/wingedneko

1 Crack specialist = 嗑学家 = Translated this literally but it means CP fans with superb sugar eating skills, who can always find traces of love between two people in the daily words and deeds of their favourite CP 

2 嗑药鸡 = drugged chicken = A term used in the fan circle: refers to the kind of people who create CP blindly, even if the two people have no relationship line, they will match CP randomly. It is also a curse word. In recent years, there have been more and more cp fans, and it has become a trend to crack celebrity cps

3 醉翁之意不在酒 = wine-lover’s heart is not in the cup (idiom); a drinker not really interested in alcohol; having an ulterior motive; to have other things in mind; with an ax to grind; accomplishing something besides what one set out to do

4 曹贼 = cao thief = It refers to liking beautiful girls who already have a partner, and being greedy for other people’s wives, which is no different from Cao thief.

Other people’s wives come to bed with me, so it doesn’t matter if I’m a Cao thief

5 Sure this has been mentioned before. 三顾茅庐 = lit. three humble visits to a thatched cottage; cf famous episode in the fictional Romance of Three Kingdoms 三國演義|三国演义 in which Liu Bei 劉備|刘备 recruits Zhuge Liang 諸葛亮|诸葛亮 (the Hidden Dragon 臥龍|卧龙) to his cause by visiting him three times
