Male Sing and His Pet Owner: Chapter 55 Extra: Kisses (Skippable)

After Zhan Hang exploded into popularity, various film offers came flying in like snowflakes, almost more than he could handle.

For over ten consecutive days, Zhao Kaile sat at home every day screening scripts for him. His discernment was clearly sharper than before. Sometimes when Bai Li advised Zhan Hang to take on a certain drama, Zhao Kaile would argue with her based on reason for Zhan Hang’s reputation, explaining from various angles why Zhan Hang currently couldn’t accept this kind of script.

Bai Li listened with a splitting headache, “Okay okay okay, I admit defeat to you. When Jiayin goes to have her baby, you’ll take over as Zhan Hang’s executive manager.”

“…….” Zhao Kaile hurriedly said, “No no no, that’s not what I mean, Sister Li.”

“I know.” Bai Li smiled, “But you’re very suitable to be his manager right now, because you understand him the best, right? And you have a certain literary foundation, hmm? I heard from Zhan Hang that you have a website where you write novels, and the results are pretty good.”

Zhao Kaile instantly felt so awkward that his toes were digging into the ground, his eyes shooting sharp blades toward Zhan Hang one after another. The latter laughed dryly, pretending not to see, and shifted his gaze to the side.

“How about it, Zhan Hang?” Bai Li took a sip of tea and asked, “Do you think we can promote Kaile?”

“Not so great.” Zhan Hang refused decisively, “If he becomes my manager, who will be my personal assistant?”

Bai Li said, “We’ll find another one for you. We can’t waste great talent on trivial tasks.”

Zhan Hang shook his head in resistance.

Zhao Kaile flipped through the scripts and said, “No need Sister Li, I’m just used to it. Besides, I can still give him opinions like this now, as long as you don’t find me annoying……..”

“I can see you’re wholeheartedly doing what’s best for him, how could I find you annoying.” Bai Li lowered her head to reply to a message, then said to Zhan Hang, “Happy Rush Rush Rush wants to invite you as a guest for their next episode. Going?”

Zhan Hang said with disgust, “This show just likes to invite traffic stars, whoever’s red they invite. It’s clearly a snobbish variety show, not going. Why didn’t they think of inviting me before?”

“Oh, before it was a pearl covered in dust.” Bai Li coaxed gently, “Now everyone knows your strength, so of course they see you differently. Kaile, don’t you think so?”

Zhao Kaile analyzed the previous episode schedule and nodded, “I think we can go. This is completely mutually beneficial. Now online variety shows have huge traffic. Previously Zhang Wenqian, Zhao Jingran, and the others have all been on this show, and even Actor Liu and Actress Zhang……. they’ve all been. They don’t only invite currently popular traffic stars, they also have strength faction guests. Hang ge, why don’t you consider it?”

Zhan Hang crossed his arms and looked at him, asking awkwardly, “You really want me to go?”

“A bit.” Zhao Kaile laughed with a heh heh, “I’ve watched this host since I was little. Now he’s moved to this new online variety show, and I’ve been watching it all along, so it gets nostalgia bonus points……. Compared to other variety shows, I give it an 8.5!”

Zhan Hang sighed, looking as if he had no choice, “Really can’t do anything with you, then I’ll go, consider it giving you face.”

Bai Li laughed and cried at the same time, “Kaile’s face is quite big.”

Zhao Kaile’s face was full of awkwardness. Under the table he lightly bumped Zhan Hang’s foot. Zhan Hang looked at him without understanding, showing an innocent expression.

One week later, backstage at Happy Rush Rush Rush.

Lu Jiayin went to liaise with the director, while Zhao Kaile led Zhan Hang to the makeup room. The receptionist nodded and bowed all the way, his face full of smiles, treating Zhao Kaile with utmost respect as well. When they entered the door, they ran into an old acquaintance, Zhao Jingran.

Today was different from the past. When Zhao Jingran saw Zhan Hang, he could only sincerely call out ge. “Hang ge.” He stepped forward to greet him warmly. Zhan Hang showed a polite smile and gave him a fake affectionate hug in front of everyone.

The several people nodded emotionally, thinking these two really did seem to have a genuine good relationship, truly excellent truly excellent, as expected only handsome guys and handsome guys can be good friends.

Zeng Jun also stepped forward to shake hands with Zhao Kaile, saying politely, “Assistant Zhao, long time no see. Today we’ll have to ask Hang ge to take care of our Jingran. In the game segments don’t be too serious.”

“Of course.” Zhao Kaile also showed a polite smile, “Mutual care, stopping at the point of courtesy.”

After the two groups exchanged pleasantries, they each entered their own makeup rooms.

Zhan Hang sat down on the chair and immediately reined in his smile to rest with eyes closed. The makeup artist and assistant came up to greet him. Zhao Kaile held Zhan Hang’s coat and said “trouble for everyone” to each person one by one before sitting to the side to continue handling matters.

The makeup artist said with a smile, “Teacher Zhan Hang is still so low key. When going out he only brings one assistant. I heard Assistant Zhao has been with you for several years, never changed.”

“What’s the point of bringing so many, when it counts you can’t find a single useful one.” Zhan Hang said.

“Exactly.” The assistant also laughed softly, “I see Jingran has changed another batch of assistants beside him. Last time I went to his set they weren’t the same group at all. The turnover is getting faster and faster.”

Zhan Hang said with arrogance and swagger, “Ah, what capable people can Zhao Jingran find, which one is as capable as ours?”

Zhao Kaile’s head was covered in black lines. He hurriedly said, “Hang ge you didn’t sleep well last night, stop talking. Be careful of tiring yourself, seize the time to rest.”

Zhan Hang opened his eyes and met his gaze through the makeup mirror, showing a teasing smile. Zhao Kaile quickly averted his gaze, pretending not to see.

After finishing makeup, Zhan Hang used the excuse of trying on clothes to have Zhao Kaile follow him in.

Zhao Kaile’s face was blank, “Hang ge, we’re recording a variety show not auditioning, what clothes do you need to change…….”

“Mm.” Zhan Hang shut the door with a snap and slowly walked to stand in front of Zhao Kaile.

Zhao Kaile: “…….”

Zhan Hang said, “Hug for a while.”

“Stop messing around!” Zhao Kaile said frantically, “We’re about to record the program!”

Zhan Hang completely ignored him, leaning down to hug him in his arms, swaying slowly back and forth, and in no time swayed them to the wall.

Zhao Kaile asked speechlessly, “Done yet?”

“No.” Zhan Hang buried his face in the crook of his neck and shoulder, rubbed against him a few times, then pressed their foreheads together, quiet for a while.

Zhao Kaile reached out to push him away a bit, his face already somewhat red, “Okay okay……”

However his strength completely couldn’t push Zhan Hang away, only serving a bit of the effect of resisting yet welcoming, of course this was Zhan Hang’s one sided interpretation. He immediately couldn’t hold back a bit, leaning in again to place a kiss on Zhao Kaile’s lips.

Zhao Kaile made a mm sound, resisting in a small voice, “Stop kissing! Your makeup will be wasted like this!”

“I want to kiss.” Zhan Hang looked at him somewhat resentfully, his tone a bit shameless, a bit hooligan, a bit overbearing, and a bit coquettish.

Zhao Kaile completely couldn’t withstand his gaze like this and immediately compromised, actively tilting his head up to kiss him on the mouth. How could Zhan Hang let such a delivered opportunity slip by? He immediately supported the back of his head, smiling as he deepened the kiss.

When their lips parted, Zhao Kaile was still somewhat breathless, his face already red beyond recognition.

Zhan Hang lowered his head and asked, “Again?”

Zhao Kaile shook his head frantically.

Zhan Hang simply pretended not to see, lowered his head and held him to continue kissing.

Lu Jiayin’s questioning voice came from outside the door.

“Huh? Just you? Where are they?” Lu Jiayin asked, “Isn’t it almost time to go on?”

The makeup assistant’s voice said, “My master went to do makeup for another teacher. Hang ge said he wanted to change clothes, he’s in the fitting room with Assistant Zhao.”

Lu Jiayin approached suspiciously, “Why change clothes at this time? It’s not the game segment yet, are there clothes to change in the second half…….. Hang ge? Are you in there? Hurry up!”

Zhan Hang was finally willing to let go of the person, his face showing he hadn’t had enough, “Got it, coming.”

“You can’t do this outside from now on!” Zhao Kaile grabbed his clothes, gritting his teeth and speaking in a small voice.

Zhan Hang drooped his brows, asking distressed, “But you don’t let me do this at home either, when can I do this?”

Zhao Kaile: “…….”

Zhan Hang pressed his advantage and asked, “Can we do this tonight?”

“No!” Zhao Kaile was so ashamed he wanted to die, “Go fix your makeup!”

The two went out one after another.

Lu Jiayin looked at Zhao Kaile’s face suspiciously, then looked at Zhan Hang in high spirits, a cloud of doubt slowly rising in her heart.

The artists recorded the program on stage, while various assistants and managers sat in the audience watching. The other seats were real audience members mixed with some extras, used to coordinate the atmosphere on site.

When it came to the water balloon segment, the program group divided the artists into two groups by drawing lots. Four male artists and two female artists, exactly two males and one female per group. Zhan Hang was in the red group, Zhao Jingran was in the blue group. After several people went off stage to change into team uniforms, they re entered the stage.

Zhao Kaile laughed out loud watching from below, hurriedly taking his phone to shoot a burst of photos of Zhan Hang, which turned into another string of meme stickers upon arrival. Lu Jiayin came over to look and laughed so hard she was trembling like flowers in the wind. The two secretly exchanged Zhan Hang’s meme stickers, deciding to keep each other’s secrets.

On stage Zhan Hang completely didn’t know he had acquired another half set of embarrassing photos, playing the game seriously. However, the program group had specifically instructed not to be too serious. Who wins or loses didn’t matter, friendship first, so the other few people were somewhat holding back.

Zhan Hang especially didn’t like people who couldn’t play properly. On stage the only one he had a relationship with was Zhao Jingran, so he went all out directing his force at the other party, causing Zhao Jingran to suffer in silence.

However at this moment Zhao Jingran stepped in a puddle and carelessly fell flat on his back with four limbs in the air. The water balloons all bounced up. The audience on stage and below instantly laughed like crazy. The host hurriedly explained, “Audience friends, this was absolutely not deliberately arranged by the program group.”

Zhan Hang laughed uncontrollably, reaching out to pull Zhao Jingran up. The atmosphere was excellent, and the laughingstock himself absolutely couldn’t show a bad face at this moment. He could only pretend not to mind, showing a bitter smile as he thanked Zhan Hang.

The photographer hurriedly went over to give the two people close ups, another wave of good promotional material for this episode.

Sure enough, when the program aired the next week, Zhao Kaile and Zhan Hang sat on the sofa watching, and saw the preview marketing a wave of brotherly affection between Hang and Jing.

Zhan Hang’s face was speechless, hugging Zhao Kaile in his arms and rubbing him back and forth.

“Stop messing around, watch the program.” Zhao Kaile lay on his lap, laughing uncontrollably, “Your expression is too funny, help…….”

“I’m right here, what are you watching TV for.” Zhan Hang found it unbelievable, lowered his head to block his view, and kissed him.

Zhao Kaile let him kiss for a while, then asked ingratiatingly, “Can we watch now?”

“…….” Zhan Hang instantly put on a stern face, saying seriously, “No!”

Then he got up, completely ignoring the little assistant’s opposition, and carried him off overbearingly, going upstairs.
