After Transmigrating into the Main Shou, I Topped the Paranoid Big Shot 49

Chapter 49

The effect of watching the movie together was not quite what Zong Mo had expected. Fortunately, the current Ruan Chi didn’t seem very angry and was preparing to drive home.
Just as he was about to step on the gas, Zong Mo suddenly spoke, “CEO Ruan, shall we go to City B?”
Ruan Chi’s movement paused. “…What did you say?”
Zong Mo said boldly, “I’ve checked online. Many people drive from City A to City B to see the sea, a round trip on the same day. It only takes a little over two hours to get there.”
Ruan Chi: ?
Zong Mo continued, “It’s a little past two now. If we drive over, we can watch the sunrise by the sea?”
“Zong Mo,” Ruan Chi lowered his voice, “you want me to be your driver and drive to City B at two in the morning?”
Zong Mo: …
“It’s not impossible to call a designated driver?”
“You want to be on the trending list again?”
“But I don’t know how to drive. I haven’t had time to learn yet,” Zong Mo said. “I’ve also rushed back to City A from the set in the middle of the night before…”
Saying this, Zong Mo finally realized he had probably fallen and hit his head. Not only did he dare to make such an excessive and unreasonable request to Ruan Chi, but he also dared to bargain in the obvious low pressure.
He was a golden canary. His CEO Ruan was not.
As expected, Ruan Chi asked, “Who do you think I am?”
Zong Mo turned his head, a look of innocence on his face. “Hmm… CEO Ruan?”
“Ruan Chi big brother?”
Ruan Chi didn’t reply. Zong Mo had already given up, but he saw him open the navigation and set the destination to City B.

The highway in the middle of the night was terrifyingly desolate. Fortunately, it was still bright inside the car.
After all, it was his own request. Zong Mo didn’t secretly sleep in the passenger seat. He fought off sleepiness and kept him company. With nothing to do, he took out his Polaroid camera and fiddled with it, then suddenly raised it and took a picture of the person next to him.
Ruan Chi: …
“You even brought a camera to the movies, just for the seaside?”
“Hmm… not entirely. I can also take pictures after the movie,” Zong Mo said. “I originally wanted to take some photos during the recording of Field Diary, but I had just mortgaged the camera to Director Tu.”
Waiting for the photo in his hand to slowly become clear, Zong Mo suddenly realized a problem.
“I shouldn’t have mortgaged the camera to Director Tu!” he muttered to himself. “I could have taken photos first and mortgaged everyone’s autographed photos to Director Tu. Nanfeng and Zhiyi’s autographed albums were so valuable…”
A miscalculation!
And he could have also taken a few more photos to bring back. If he was kicked out of the house by CEO Ruan one day, he could also sell the autographed photos for money.
He was still making plans for the non-existent future in his mind when he suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the car was a bit off.
Zong Mo: …
He closed his mouth and scrolled through his phone, searching for preparations for watching the sunrise by the sea.

In order not to let Ruan Chi drive alone, Zong Mo forced himself to stay awake. When they arrived at the seaside in City B at a little past four, he was already shaking his head, extremely sleepy.
The temperature difference between day and night by the sea was not large, but the sea breeze was biting. And before dawn was the coldest time. The moment he got out of the warm car, Zong Mo was instantly awakened by the cold.
His sleepy eyes became even redder from the sea breeze. He squinted uncomfortably and said, “CEO Ruan, let’s wait in the car… hmm? It seems there’s a tent rental over there?”
“I’ll go take a look.”
Zong Mo trotted over, woke up the old man who was sleeping in the small cabin, and successfully rented a tent. But he didn’t know how to set it up and could only look at the slowly approaching Ruan Chi for help.
Ruan Chi had his hands in his pockets and clearly had no intention of helping him. Zong Mo was not willing to give up the ritual of watching the sunrise by the sea. He struggled by himself for half an hour and successfully set up the tent.
It was his first time at the seaside in his life, and also his first time setting up a tent. He felt he was quite capable!
Hmm, he will definitely be an excellent husband in the future!

“While it’s not light yet…” Zong Mo said, rummaging through his pockets and taking out a paper box and a lighter.
Ruan Chi saw the words on the box and was silent for a moment.
“Where did these sparklers come from?”
“I brought them from home,” Zong Mo said.
…Bringing sparklers to watch a movie in advance? Ruan Chi’s gaze darkened.
“CEO Ruan, let me take a picture of you?” Zong Mo turned a blind eye and continued to add fuel to the fire. “You hold the sparklers.”
“Zong Mo,” Ruan Chi did not take them. “You were planning to make me your driver all along?”
“I felt the timing would be just right after the movie?” Zong Mo said in a low voice. “We could also call a designated driver…”
He lit the sparklers and handed them over again.
Ruan Chi: “Tell me in advance next time.”
Zong Mo nodded. The hand he had extended was suspended in mid-air for a few seconds before the sparklers were finally taken.
Zong Mo took a look through the Polaroid screen and felt that his CEO Ruan was very handsome even with just his eyes showing.
He took one picture first, then said, “CEO Ruan, can you take off your mask?”
Zong Mo took a few more pictures. He found that Ruan Chi’s eyes and the tip of his nose were red from the sea breeze, his lips were also red, and his skin was pale. The effect in the not-so-high-definition Polaroid photos was particularly good.
That gaze was again like looking at trash, or to put it nicely, a world-weary face. But his black hair was tousled and curly by the sea breeze, which completely dispelled that sharp aggressiveness.
Zong Mo excitedly showed the photo to Ruan Chi, “I feel like this photo with your signature could sell for a lot of money?”
Ruan Chi looked at himself, who only occupied a quarter of the bottom right corner of the photo, and couldn’t figure out for a moment what the point was of wasting these two or three hours in the middle of the night.
“The shot is terrible,” Ruan Chi said truthfully.
Zong Mo muttered, “I’ve never touched a camera before. At most, I’ve used my phone to take pictures…”
Ruan Chi snatched the Polaroid and said, “I’ll take one for you.”

Zong Mo got the photo Ruan Chi had taken for him. In comparison, his own photography skills were indeed terrible.
The person in the photo had bright, curved eyes, reflecting the sparks of the sparklers. The fringe on his forehead was all blown away by the sea breeze, his brows and eyes handsome, black hair, pale skin, his white shirt floating slightly, full of youthful energy.
He will definitely be a presentable, high-quality husband who will attract countless passersby’s attention when walking down the street in the future!
The background of the photo was the deep blue, silent sea before sunrise.
Zong Mo’s impression of the sea only existed in videos and photos. The sun shining, the sea and sky one color, as blue as if washed.
He put away the photo and looked again at the sea before him. The sky was hanging low at this moment. A red sun gradually emerged from the sea, the red light bursting out, stretching endlessly along the sea level, and even spreading to the gray-blue sky.
The two of them sat at the entrance of the tent. Besides the sea in front, the three sides were blocked by the tent from the annoying wind and the gazes of others.
The scenery was clearly magnificent, but the world he could feel suddenly became very small.
“CEO Ruan, don’t look directly at the sun when watching the sunrise. It will hurt your eyes,” Zong Mo reminded. “This is a tip I saw online.”
Ruan Chi slightly averted his gaze and looked at the sparkling sea surface, which was tinged with red light.
Zong Mo thought for a moment and said directly, “CEO Ruan, can you close your eyes?”
Ruan Chi closed his eyes.
Hmm, he’s really not afraid of his golden canary suddenly rebelling and punching him in his handsome face.
Zong Mo only thought about beating up CEO Ruan in his mind. He just slowly leaned in and placed a light kiss.
His heart seemed to skip a beat. A strange emotion rushed up, making his mind go blank, leaving only the sound of the waves in his ears.
After a long while, he was about to pull back, but Ruan Chi suddenly leaned forward, not only prying open his mouth with his tongue but also holding the back of his head to prevent him from dodging.
Zong Mo: ?
Wait a minute, this is not the feeling he wanted.
Forget it.
It wasn’t that gentle and lingering romance, but a simple and crude excitement was not bad either.

It wasn’t until he was pinned to the ground that Zong Mo came back to his senses and quickly stopped him, “CEO Ruan, the tent will shake, and the ground is a bit uncomfortable…”
This kind of excitement was a bit too much. He might go limp.
“Let’s go to the car,” Ruan Chi suggested.
The two of them secretly chose an empty path to find the car parked on the side of the road. Looking from a distance, they couldn’t see the car, but rather a full circle of onlookers.
“CEO Ruan, your car seems to be surrounded?”
Not only was it surrounded by a crowd of people, but they were also pointing and talking loudly, leaning against the car door or pointing at the car logo, taking a flurry of photos.
Ruan Chi: …
It was the first time Zong Mo had experienced the troubles of being rich. It was true that wealth should not be exposed!
Where should they go now? They couldn’t go to the small woods, right?
That wasn’t impossible either.
Ruan Chi pulled his arm and ordered irresistibly, “Come with me.”
The two of them walked along the seaside for ten minutes and came to a residential building.
“I bought it a few years ago when this place was just being developed,” Ruan Chi introduced. “But it didn’t do very well. The house price only doubled.”
Zong Mo: Only doubled…?
The building had a common layout of four households per floor, which was not exaggerated for CEO Ruan. The public elevator went up to the thirtieth floor without stopping midway. Zong Mo lamented, “It really didn’t do well. This building seems very deserted.”
“It’s deserted because the whole building is empty,” Ruan Chi said. “I don’t like to rent out my properties.”
Zong Mo: ?
Investing in a whole building of sea-view apartments was quite something. Very CEO Ruan.

The apartment they were staying in this time was also on the top floor. An entire wall was an open-plan balcony, facing the sea.
There was even a large bathtub on the balcony, where you could enjoy the sea view while taking a bath.
Zong Mo: ? What kind of magical design is this?
He probably wouldn’t have time for a bath today. He had showered at home before the movie. Although it had been a long journey, he wasn’t very dirty.
Of course, he wasn’t disgusted by Ruan Chi, and Ruan Chi wasn’t very disgusted by him either. He had even wanted to do it on the beach just now.
It was just that Ruan Chi wanted him to come from behind today, lying on his stomach on the bed with the back of his head facing him.
When he turned Ruan Chi’s head to the side again, his lips were suddenly bitten hard.
Zong Mo: ?
“Are you possessed by a dog today? You keep kissing.”
“Don’t you like it, CEO Ruan?”
“It’s okay,” Ruan Chi said. “My neck is sore.”
Zong Mo: …
He had Ruan Chi turn over and face him, then continued to kiss.
During a break in their exercise, Zong Mo said, not quite convinced, “It’s one thing for you to say I’m like a dog usually, but to curse me for being like a dog at a time like this, aren’t you also cursing yourself?”
Ruan Chi was silent for a few seconds, then said, “I wasn’t cursing you.”
Zong Mo quickly retorted, “Then would you be happy if I said you’re like a dog?”
Ruan Chi’s next sentence almost overlapped with his retort, “Dogs are very cute.”
Zong Mo: …
“I didn’t mean you’re cute when I said you’re like a dog!”
“I’m not cute either!”
Ruan Chi just smiled, occasionally calling his name, and didn’t say any more nonsense.
Zong Mo guessed that Ruan Chi was tired. He didn’t even go to take a shower and fell asleep as soon as they were done.
Usually at this time, Zong Mo would be making breakfast. Although he was a little tired, he didn’t really want to sleep.
He looked at the sleeping person beside him and couldn’t help but marvel that CEO Ruan was a pure and harmless angel when he was asleep.
He had been deceived by this appearance back then!
So badly deceived!!
Not only was his body deceived, but also…
Ruan Chi was a light sleeper. He didn’t dare to touch him casually. He really couldn’t sleep, so he simply got out of bed, put on his pants, and went to the living room, to the open-plan large balcony to feel the morning sea breeze.
Gentle, cool, slightly salty, and moist, it made one feel refreshed and all fatigue disappeared.
No wonder rich people liked to go on vacation by the sea in the summer. Even CEO Ruan was no exception, buying a whole building of sea-view apartments and leaving it here.

Zong Mo took out his phone, opened the notepad, and typed:
Go to the cinema to watch a movie together
Go to the seaside to watch the sunrise together
Set off fireworks together
Take pictures together
After typing this line, he moved the cursor to the very front and continued typing.
Celebrate the New Year together
Watch fireworks together
Soak in hot springs together
Celebrate the New Year together
His fingertips stopped. Zong Mo stared at the screen, seriously recalling. As he thought, he was suddenly stunned.
What was he doing?
He put his phone back in his pocket. After feeling the sea breeze for a while longer, he suddenly wanted a post-coital cigarette.
He took out the photo Ruan Chi had taken for him from his pants pocket, took a picture of it with his phone, and posted it on Weibo.

Since filming Conquering the Entertainment Industry, he hadn’t become very famous, but his Weibo private message inbox had always been full. He had clicked in to look a few times before. There were fans who frantically called him “wife” and confessed their love to him, fans who treated him as a sounding board and chattered about their daily lives, and of course, those who cursed him.
He didn’t know how to reply, so he hadn’t looked at it much later.
But now he really wanted to talk to someone, so he opened his private message inbox for the first time in a long time.
What was with these hundreds of “cubs,” “good cubs,” “babies,” “babies”…?
Zong Mo randomly clicked on one to check. He was so embarrassed his ears burned.
And this chosen fan was constantly watching their private messages. They quickly noticed the “read” prompt and sent him another emotionally rich short essay.
It was full of blessings for him.
Zong Mo really had no way to repay them and could only say a worthless “thank you for your liking.”
The other side immediately replied with a screen full of “ahhhhhh,” their excited screams almost overflowing the screen.
Zong Mo was flattered and replied to a few more private messages, then returned to his own Weibo homepage and looked at the comments section of the Polaroid photo he had just posted.
He didn’t even need to add a caption to sell a sob story now. A casually taken photo was not very clear, and he had posted it early in the morning, but it could quickly get hundreds of thousands of comments.
Because of the reversal of the Yin Qiao incident and the release of Chasing the Light Boy, the voices scolding him were gradually replaced by sympathy and affection. His fans had increased a lot and were more active. Body fans and mother fans appeared alternately, switching freely.
On the first morning after the premiere, in the comments section at this moment—

【Mo Mo, did you get sick before because you were tired from filming Chasing the Light Boy, qwq】
【Why were you wearing so little in the movie? It looked so cold, wuwu】
【Promise mama, don’t film this kind of movie anymore! If you see a director surnamed Yang, you must stay away from him!!】
【srds, the director of Conquering the Entertainment Industry is also Yang Lexing. Don’t you think it’s very fragrant…】
Zong Mo: …
There were also some comments that paid more attention to the photo he had posted.
【Baby, you’re up so early. Where did you go to play?】
【Seeing you so happy, baby, I can temporarily forgive the inhuman director, wuwuwu】
【Mo Mo, always be happy, duck~】
The fans could still dig out layer after layer of details from the blurry photo he had taken with his phone.
Zong Mo directly held up the Polaroid photo and examined it carefully. Besides smiling a little silly, he couldn’t see anything. So he put the photo, which had been warmed by his palm, back in his pocket.
The feeling of summer on May 20th was still a little faint. It was a bit cold to be shirtless in the wind.
Going back to the bedroom to get clothes might wake Ruan Chi up. Zong Mo walked around the huge living room, warming up with exercise. As he walked in circles, he thought, like a large dog that had been kept in captivity for too long and had developed stereotyped behavior.
He hadn’t slept all night. He was really tired. In the end, he walked to the sofa, picked up the blanket on it, wrapped it around himself, and lay down with his eyes closed. A few minutes later, he suddenly opened his eyes again, without any sleepiness, and took out his phone again, opening the search engine.
He typed a line and searched:
[What to do if you’ve developed feelings from sleeping together?]
High-voted answer:
[Sleep until you’re tired of it.]

Author’s Note:
No one should have noticed when CEO Ruan fell in love, right XD
Don’t worry, he’ll say it himself
