TL: Hua
Lin Yanran felt a force on his arm, and he was pulled back.
Because he lost his balance, he almost bumped into the shoulder of the person behind him.
The first to react were the other trainees. When they realized that Gu Siye was going to personally demonstrate with Lin Yanran, almost every trainee’s mouth dropped open in shock, their expressions more exaggerated than the last.
What incredible luck did they have today?!
“WOW!!!”
“Teacher Gu!!!”
“I can’t wait!!!”
Hearing the trainees’ screams, Lin Yanran turned to look at the person behind him.
Gu Siye had also withdrawn his gaze from Qiao Ye, and when his eyes met Lin Yanran’s, his expression softened again.
“What do you think, Teacher Yanran?”
Gu Siye had acted first and asked for permission later. He had already prevented Lin Yanran from teaching Qiao Ye but was now pretending to ask for his approval.
Lin Yanran didn’t notice the hidden motives in Gu Siye’s actions. He was surprised but immediately accepted the offer.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Teacher Gu.”
He had been worried that a separate demonstration would be less effective.
Now that Gu Siye was willing to help him demonstrate together, it couldn’t be better.
The dance section Qiao Ye and Ji Shuai had collaborated on was the final part of the performance.
It was also the biggest twist and the finishing touch to the entire story.
After Lin Yanran briefly communicated the plot to Gu Siye, the two of them exchanged a glance and tacitly understood each other’s roles.
Lin Yanran would portray Ji Shuai’s twisted, “yandere” bride, while Gu Siye would play Qiao Ye’s sophisticated villain.
“Ji Shuai, where’s your lipstick?”
The yandere bride would put on a layer of bright lipstick when he turned evil at the end.
Afraid the effect would be greatly diminished, Lin Yanran decided to put on lipstick, just like Ji Shuai.
Although he had gradually gotten used to seeing celebrities wear makeup for the camera, he had been a regular person for 22 years and wasn’t interested in makeup. He’d had almost no exposure to it, so like many other boys who didn’t care about cosmetics, he had never bothered to learn how to apply lipstick.
Looking at the lipstick in his hand and having no idea how to start, Lin Yanran could only turn to Ji Shuai. “What’s the first step?”
Ji Shuai almost burst out laughing at Lin Yanran’s question.
“What’s the first step?” The phrasing sounded so much like a math problem.
Ji Shuai took a cotton swab out of his hand and looked at Lin Yanran in surprise. “Teacher Yanran, you don’t know how to do makeup?”
Lin Yanran nodded.
After getting the confirmation from Lin Yanran, a question that had bothered Ji Shuai for years was finally solved.
“I knew it! That’s why you’re always bare-faced, except when you’re on camera!”
He had previously thought that the teacher was just so naturally good-looking that he didn’t bother with makeup.
It turned out he just didn’t know how!
Ji Shuai carefully applied lipstick for Lin Yanran, his gaze lingering on the handsome face so close to him.
But it didn’t matter that he didn’t know how to do makeup. If he had a face like that and such great skin, he’d probably just go bare-faced straight into the camera.
A few minutes later, after Ji Shuai finished applying the lipstick for Lin Yanran, the two walked out from the corner.
Lin Yanran went directly to Gu Siye, standing face-to-face with him, no more than 20 centimeters apart.
When they had first talked about the demonstration, Lin Yanran didn’t feel much.
But now, seeing Gu Siye in front of him and thinking about the upcoming intimate scene they were about to perform, Lin Yanran felt a few seconds of discomfort.
However, he quickly suppressed the feeling.
“Shall we begin, Teacher Gu?”
Lin Yanran asked first, worried that Gu Siye might be uncomfortable.
As he spoke, his lips parted slightly, revealing his white teeth.
His skin was naturally fair and clear. Even with only a thin layer of lipstick, his moist and soft lips looked even more colorful. With a bare face, he was still stunningly beautiful and captivating.
Gu Siye’s gaze moved from Lin Yanran’s lips. He closed his eyes to hide the darkness swirling within and replied in a low voice, “Ready.”
As the music began, Lin Yanran felt Gu Siye’s palm gently rest on his lower back. Separated only by a thin white T-shirt, he could clearly feel the heat of the other man’s hand.
After a woman’s low hum in the music, the hand on his shirt hem tightened, pulling his waist forward with a firm grip.
The distance between them was suddenly gone, and Lin Yanran’s face almost hit Gu Siye’s chest.
Lin Yanran looked up in surprise at the man in the clean-cut suit.
The man’s shirt buttons were all neatly done up to the very top, presenting a serious and upright appearance.
However, in the next second, the elegant and restrained man’s lips curled into a flirtatious and dazzling smile.
His eyes seemed to be examining a gentle, delicate sparrow in his palm.
The beautiful canary tried to escape in fear. He struggled to get away but realized he couldn’t break free from the man’s grip.
The man deliberately admired the other person’s expression, then stretched out his right hand with satisfaction, and gently lifted the tip of the snow-white chin of the person in front of him with his fingertips, forcing those innocent eyes to look at him.
You can’t escape. Be my bride.
I will make you my most precious collection and display you in the most prominent place.
With clipped wings and nowhere to go, the canary’s face had already lost all color, only his lips retaining their vibrant shade.
Faced with the man’s threats and temptations, his eyes were full of bewilderment and confusion.
His fingers trembled as they rested on the back of the other’s neck. His slender waist seemed unable to bear the strength of the arm around it. After his struggle was fruitless, he slowly lowered his head, exposing his white neck, surrendering himself to be preyed upon.
The canary, like a disconnected puppet, leaned softly on the man’s shoulder.
Beautiful and fragile, he was about to become the man’s 1000th collection.
The man gently stroked his slender back, a look of self-satisfaction on his face for having conquered another treasure.
The background music suddenly turned eerie. The proud man’s eyes became unfocused, and the smile on his lips gradually disappeared.
Meanwhile, the canary in his arms slowly raised his head.
He lifted the hand that was resting on the man’s neck and brought it to his own fair face.
It moved slowly from his eyebrow down, finally gliding over his lips.
The area around his lips was instantly smeared with a blurred red, like the fresh blood dripping from a vampire’s fangs.
The canary, with innocent and fragile eyes, patted the man’s shoulder, a faint smile on his lips.
His eyes flickered, showing the triumph and glee of a successful scheme.
Lin Yanran’s expression froze, and the music came to an abrupt halt.
Qiao Ye looked at Lin Yanran’s smeared lips, and for a moment he forgot to breathe, his heart pounding.
At the same time, the practice room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The trainees on site were all stunned by the performance.
They knew the plot and had seen Qiao Ye and Ji Shuai’s previous performance. They had even thought they were pretty good together.
But now, after watching the two mentors’ performance, they suddenly understood what true s*xual tension was!
Gu Siye’s gaze when he looked at Lin Yanran was twisted and full of possession.
And Lin Yanran’s expression—pure and alluring at first, then scheming and twisted in the end—was incredibly captivating, but it also sent shivers down their spines.
These two were truly worthy of being mentors. Their performance was on a completely different level!
All the trainees were still immersed in the scene, slowly replaying it in their minds, and hadn’t yet snapped out of it.
It was only when they saw Lin Yanran and Gu Siye separate that they realized they should be applauding.
So everyone began clapping and cheering, shouting praises for the mentors.
However, while the trainees were cheering for the mentors’ superb acting, Xia Xingxing, who was standing at the front, was clapping and clutching his chest.
Awoooo, that “yandere” beauty and the sophisticated villain!!
Was that a scene I, a CP dog, could really see for free?!
Woooo, they did it again!
After the performance, Lin Yanran was ready to wipe off the lipstick on his face, as it was smudged and looked a bit messy.
He was just about to look for a tissue when he saw Gu Siye walking toward him with a wet wipe.
Lin Yanran thanked him and took the wet wipe, wiping his face a few times.
They were outside the practice room, and there was no wall mirror, so he couldn’t see if it was completely clean. He asked Gu Siye, “Is it clean?”
“There’s still a little bit.”
Lin Yanran was about to ask where when he felt Gu Siye’s finger gently wipe his cheek, with a patient and tender touch.
“There’s still some here.”
Gu Siye was focused and attentive, his voice low and a little hoarse.
Qiao Ye, who had just washed his face with cold water and was holding a tissue to bring to Lin Yanran, stood around the corner and saw the entire scene.
The young man’s fingers tightened, and he quietly turned and walked away.
