After Transmigrating into the Main Shou, I Topped the Paranoid Big Shot 80

Chapter 80

The matter of adapting the novel was no joke for Ruan Chi. He decisively found three famous screenwriters to give Zong Mo… online classes.
The reason for not having in-person classes at home was, naturally, because it was inconvenient for their world of two.
Zong Mo started learning screenwriting from scratch and found that there was a considerable difference between writing a script and writing a novel. It was no different from rewriting the book all over again.
This was his first time adapting his own novel, and it would also be his first time truly playing a couple with Ruan Chi on screen. Therefore, he was particularly careful in his writing, and his efficiency dropped sharply. Ruan Chi, however, was not in a hurry.

The two’s shocking act of kicking open the closet door on Weibo was still a topic of much discussion after half a month, and the popularity remained high. But both of them had their own things to do and didn’t care what the netizens said. They only occasionally went on to post a few photos as a treat for their CP fans.
Now, Zong Mo could browse the CP Super Topic directly with his main account without worrying about a slip of the hand. He hadn’t logged into his Weibo side account for a while. This day, while slacking off in class, he was suddenly a little curious and switched to his side account to take a look.

The private message box was almost full.
His side account had indeed been exposed!!
In the private messages, a bunch of people were bombarding him, asking if he was Zong Mo. There were also some fans who, unable to get his attention in the sea of private messages on his main account, had come here to try their luck.
【IP address is in City A, often speaks in the Super Topic but only follows CEO Ruan. You must be my Mo Mo wife! Don’t deny it [Naughty]】
【Wife, wife, wife, wife! I knew it was you!!】
【Mo Mo baby, look at me, mua~ (starry eyes)】
Zong Mo: …
He quickly followed his own main account in a self-deceiving way, temporarily put this side account aside to wait for the fans to forget on their own, and continued to study seriously.

After coming out, Zong Mo’s acting path was inevitably affected.
Because of the beautiful, strong, and tragic persona in Chasing the Light Boy, and the image of a good family man he had established in the live streams and variety shows, An Lan had originally had many romance drama scripts hoping for his favor. At this moment, because of his sexual orientation, they were all left unresolved.
Before he had publicly announced his relationship, Zong Mo hadn’t really wanted to play a couple with others in dramas anymore, regardless of whether the other party was male or female. Naturally, there was nothing to regret. After all, he still had a semi-autobiographical drama that he had written and would act in waiting for him.
And in terms of variety shows, to avoid giving a bad influence to minors who had not yet been finalized, as a member of a sexual minority group, he had also lost the variety show resources with an age restriction of under eighteen.
But the entertainment industry was changing with each passing day. It was no big deal for the huge variety show market to be missing this piece. And the fans were spamming Weibo every day, begging them to appear on a variety show together. Many variety show directors were eager and even willing to try to transform for the huge traffic they possessed.
Zong Mo was still considering whether to start a live stream to chat with his fans when Tu Bu threw him a new olive branch.
Zong Mo had long had no more opinions about Tu Bu, but he was a little surprised by his proposal.
Tu Bu actually wanted to make a cohabitation observation variety show, inviting couples from all walks of life, spanning different sexual orientation groups. For the book world, which mainly focused on dramas and talk shows, this was undoubtedly an unprecedentedly bold challenge.
Zong Mo had experience from another world and had witnessed the grand occasion of cohabitation variety shows and LGBT variety shows becoming a hit. And Tu Bu had keenly combined these two elements. No matter how he thought about it, it was unlikely to flop.
Only at this moment did Zong Mo realize with hindsight that he also had many cheat codes but had almost never used them.
He had already received a lot of love and happiness in this world as an outsider. There was no need to snatch others’ luck and fortune.
Anyway… this soft rice tasted quite good!

He felt that this variety show was not bad, so he informed Ruan Chi, and Ruan Chi let him decide. However, it was not convenient to film in the multi-story villa. The two of them moved back to the large flat apartment they had stayed in when they were filming Conquering the Entertainment Industry—now one of the properties under Zong Mo’s name.
The filming of their cohabitation life required a sense of life and privacy. The program team came to their home and set up cameras in a few major locations. Before the broadcast, the staff tactfully withdrew and moved to the apartment next door to observe the movements through the live stream screen.
Zong Mo and Ruan Chi could also see the bullet comments sent by the audience through the installed display screen and could interact with the audience at any time.
On the first day of the live stream, Zong Mo woke up early and turned on the camera in the bedroom.
As a cohabitation observation variety show, a camera in the bedroom was of course a necessity.
But, a live variety show actually dared to install a camera in the bedroom. They were really not afraid of any 18+ accidents.
However, for the live stream, they had put on their clothes before going to bed. At this moment, there was nothing that couldn’t be broadcast. After turning on the camera, Zong Mo also brushed his teeth and then got back into bed.
With this movement, it was impossible for Ruan Chi not to wake up, but he was still lazing in bed, resisting contributing material to the live stream.
Zong Mo found it amusing. A guy who didn’t really like to show his face was now clinging to him to film and go on variety shows, as if he were deliberately showing his ownership in front of the netizens.
Just as he was about to pull him up, Ruan Chi moved first, lifting the quilt and covering both of them.
The bullet comments were excited for a few seconds before they started to spam question marks. Only then did an old fan come out to guide them.

【Fuck! I knew there was a big problem with the quilt-covering last time in Field Diary!!】
【So how long have Mo Mo and CEO Ruan been together?? I’m so curious!】
【I think it can be traced back to when they were filming Conquering the Entertainment Industry, haha. Didn’t CEO Ruan let Mo Mo play the female lead just to tell everyone that this is my wife XD】
The not-so-thick autumn quilt could not completely block the bright morning sun. The person under the quilt looked at each other’s slightly flushed faces. Zong Mo couldn’t help but speak first to remind him, “We’re on a live stream.”
Pay attention to the scale.
Under the quilt, Ruan Chi only pressed his nose against his and casually pinched his face, “Mm, I’m hungry.”
Only then did Zong Mo lift the quilt again and get out of bed with a face that was slightly flushed, either from lack of oxygen or something else.

During the day, it was the daily life of an old married couple, eating and taking walks. The only difference from usual was probably that considering they were recording a show, the two of them tried their best to restrain their impulse to be too intimate many times.
At night, the program team sent a host to their home for an interview. It was right at the peak traffic time of eight in the evening, to interact with the audience.
The host asked, “Where did you two first meet?”
The two said in unison, “A cocktail party.”
“When did you get together?”
Zong Mo recalled the day Ruan Chi had expressed his liking for him, “It was in August… what was the date?”
But they had really gotten together on the day Ruan Chi had pretended to be bankrupt and confirmed their relationship. So he changed his tune, “It was on September 1st.”
Ruan Chi waited for him to answer before he spoke, but he did not copy the answer and said very uncooperatively, “It was on November 11th of last year.”
Zong Mo: …
Of course, he remembered clearly. This was the day he had first arrived, and also the day of their first…
He immediately shot him a look to hint. Ruan Chi not only did not change his tune but also emphasized, “It was indeed from that day that we were together.”
The host was stunned for a moment. It was the first time she had seen such a zero-chemistry answer, and both of them were so sure.
…Forget it. Next question.
The host did not press, but the bullet comments were in a heated discussion:
【Good grief, so it’s almost been a year? Wife, you’ve kept it from me for so long TvT】
【?? When did they get together?】
【I suspect the time they’re talking about is not referring to the same thing, hhh】
【You have to know, CEO Ruan is the kind of person who dares to drive a car on the highway in a 15+ variety show, hahaha. My hint ends here (shh)】
The host continued with the procedure, “What do you do when you’re in a bad mood?”
Zong Mo opened his mouth, wanted to say something but held back, and answered silently in his heart: Violate the second article of the agreement.
Ruan Chi, on the other hand, smiled and said, “This question is not convenient to answer.”
Considering that even if it was 18+, this was a proper show, Zong Mo casually made up an answer, “…Let’s eat together.”
Very perfunctory.
The host was silent for a moment, then continued, “Say one thing you most want to do with the other person?”
After asking, there was an even longer silence.
“Eat together,” Zong Mo said hesitantly and perfunctorily. “Or go out on a date.”
The dedicated host decided to continue with the next question. The bullet comments would naturally not let it go so easily, or rather, what the netizens were best at was picking at details.
【May I ask if the eating they’re talking about is the eating I’m thinking of?】
【Wife, you’d better not explain, hahaha. Your expression can’t hide anything at all!!】

“For the next few questions, you need to write them on a whiteboard. No peeking at each other’s answers. You have to show them to me at the same time,” the host said, and gently asked the first question. “What do you want the other person to call you?”
Zong Mo wrote two words without hesitation and showed them to the camera and the host: [Husband]
The bullet comments instantly burst into laughter.
【LMAO, Mo Mo’s wife and his last stubbornness (sees through and says it)】
【Wife, wife, wife~ silly wife, muah muah muah】
Although Zong Mo didn’t know what the bullet comments’ reaction was, he had clearly temporarily forgotten that the netizens were always very rebellious.
Ruan Chi’s answer was: [Whatever]
Zong Mo immediately squinted and glanced at the nonchalant Ruan Chi.
Where did the energy of coaxing him to call him husband usually go?!
He’s acting!
The host continued to ask. After the gentle appetizer, the next question was extremely explosive, “Do you still miss your ex?”
But the two of them immediately started writing and showed their answers at the same time after three seconds.
[No ex]
The host was slightly stunned, and the bullet comments were also quiet for a moment, as if they found it hard to believe.
…An artist in his twenties with a good appearance and the head of a conglomerate with an astonishing net worth, could they still be each other’s first love?
The bullet comments that had come back to their senses scrolled a wave of “ahhhhhh,” “kswl,” “divine love.”
The host couldn’t help but ask a question that was not in the script, “Why?”
Zong Mo replied, “Besides me, no one can stand CEO Ruan.”
Ruan Chi, on the other hand, said, “Because of the proximity.”
But Zong Mo turned his head to look at him and explained, “If we had met in a different way, I would still have fallen for you.”
Because of Ruan Chi’s answer, Zong Mo only then remembered that he had not given any explanation for his feelings, making it seem as if he had been gradually domesticated.
Ruan Chi didn’t seem to care much. As long as he didn’t leave him, it was fine. But he still felt it was necessary to say these heartfelt words.
Zong Mo continued, “When I’m with you, although it’s a little tiring sometimes, I also feel very happy and relaxed. I don’t need to hide, I don’t need to be a gentle and considerate good big brother. I can be imperfect. I can just be my truest self.”
As he spoke, he remembered the night Ruan Chi had gone crazy and waited in the rain. Such a proud, calm, and rational person, yet he would show such a side in front of him.
He didn’t pour out his troubles to ask for his comfort, nor did he pass on his negative emotions to him. Ruan Chi hid all his bad emotions in his stomach and digested them alone. The only words he said were just a craving for his quiet company.
“You make me feel very important, very special, irreplaceable.”
Zong Mo finally finished his words and came back to his senses. It was all Ruan Chi’s fault for confessing to him from time to time, which made him act on impulse and give such an emotionally rich confession in a live stream.
So embarrassing!
He quickly covered his hot face. Ruan Chi had only just recovered from his daze.
He then turned his back to the camera, showed him that rare gentle smile, and kissed him without any regard, also adding a sentence, “I love you forever.”
Host: ?
…Wait, she hasn’t finished asking yet?
