[R18] I only like your personality [Entertainment Circle] – “I Only Like Your Character [Entertainment Circle]” Chapter 22 [English]

Chapter 22 Cruel Moonlight

These days, Xia Xiqing has never contacted Zhou Ziheng. Obviously, Zhou Ziheng will not come looking for him. Under normal circumstances, Xia Xiqing can basically solve the problem within a week, but Zhou Ziheng is an exception.

He is quite willing to spend his time.

He is willing to spend time on anyone or anything that can make him feel satisfied.

On the day the house was decorated, Xia Xiqing originally planned to invite Xu Qichen and the others to come to the new home for a gathering. This proposal was also brought up by Chen Fang, because that day happened to be the premiere of the program “Escape”.

The program team of “Escape” spent a lot of money to build publicity for ratings. Not to mention the various materials before the broadcast, the trailer alone has been forwarded nearly 20,000 times.Almost all of the five guests have their own aura and popularity, especially Xia Xiqing, who made his C-level debut as a fan of Zhou Ziheng before. Now he is participating in the reality show with his idol, and is attracting even more attention.

The tone of the first program preview is a very orthodox suspense style, with fragmented editing, misplaced lines, increasingly faster pace and BGM, which immediately captured the hearts of the audience.

Compared with the traditional escape room, “Escape” has an additional part of finding the killer, and the editing also specially highlights this point, amplifying everyone’s conflicts and breakthroughs in the trailer.

Xia Xiqing knew early on that the variety show’s preview routine was very deep, but he didn’t expect it to be so deep. The part where he was questioned by Cen Chen was cut out, and the taste completely changed.

“What if you are not an ordinary player?” Cen Chun’s voice matched the scene where Zhou Ziheng unlocked Xia Xiqing’s handcuffs. Soon, the screen switched to he leaning against the wall, smiling as he answered the question.

“If I were really a killer, the first thing I would do is ‘kill’ Zhou Ziheng.”

Interspersed with scenes of Ruan Xiao untying the jewelry box, and Shang Sirui sitting on a chair with a smile and saying “I gave up my vote.”, the scene then changed to the first scene of Xia Xiqing and Zhou Ziheng being locked in a room. Zhou Ziheng, who was tied up, and Xia Xiqing, who was handcuffed and blindfolded with black cloth, faced each other.

Cen Chen’s voice appeared again, “Is it possible that what Xia Xiqing said is true? Ziheng, you are really a killer.” Suddenly, the screen turned into darkness.

No, it’s not darkness. Xia Xiqing pressed his fingers on the earphones, and a slight gasp came from inside.In the darkness, an infrared camera appeared to record the scene where Zhou Ziheng pressed him against the wall and covered his mouth.

Zhou Ziheng’s voice began to appear, “If I were a killer, I would indeed be the first to kill him.”

The picture of everyone being initialized in the room flashed one by one, and finally settled on the moment when the door opened, but the figure walking out of the door was blurred.

he heard his own voice, sounding weak and calm.

“I can’t get out.”

Under the sound effect of the door slamming shut, the four words “Escape” appeared on the screen, and the trailer ended.

Xia Xiqing shook his head and took off his headphones.This program team is really good at creating conflicts. The short two-minute trailer barely reveals any real plot. Instead, it reorganizes the original plot. All the contradictions are concentrated on Zhou Ziheng and he. After seeing the trailer again, the audience will involuntarily become involved in the conflict between he and they, weakening the focus on Shang Sirui. Only when they finally see the truth will they feel a knowing blow.

He is really good at playing.

Xia Xi counted nearly 10,000 comments under the trailer, which was basically what he expected.

[Who said I was a cutie]: Ah, what kind of fairy tale is this about falling in love and killing each other!Officially forcing the fan to death!!

[Shinyyyy]: Oh my god, the sense of déjà vu with escape room and werewolf killing. If it is a killer, the first person he wants to kill will be the other person!This is so touching, I burst into tears!!I haven’t seen such an exciting reality show in a long time!(I’m not a fan but I think Zhou Ziheng is really awesome)

[I am a scumbag]: What kind of divine Alpha am I, Tianzhou Ziheng? When I press that section on the wall, my heart explodes. I cover my mouth and round off the whole thing to force a kiss! Sisters!

[Little Butterfly is not Little Fudie]: I have to say that the little brother in the white shirt is really good-looking. When he smiles, he looks like an angel on earth. I don’t believe that the little brother will be a Killer~

[My cute little Sansan]: 55555 Creamy-yellow Sirui is so cute. Although Sansan is so cute, I still want to say that he has a really strong sense of disobedience in this high-IQ game hahahahaha.

[Rui Rui grew up eating sweets]: It’s really hahahaha Sansan will perform all kinds of “confused” faces for everyone on the spot~

[Is there anyone cuter than Shang Sirui?]: Please don’t tell me that Ruirui was the first to die [although I really feel so in my heart]

[Little Sister is a Treasure]: Has no one realized that this show is simply a feast for looks?That Mensa girl is so beautiful. She doesn’t look like an amateur at all. She’s elegant and smart. What kind of fairy is this?

[Brother Cen, will you marry me today?]: It’s a rare reality show for my husband. He spent the whole time questioning others, hahahahaha, so fierce~

[I love CC]: I have black hair and red lips!I also want to marry Brother Chen today!

[KarenLee]: As a passer-by, I was hooked after watching the trailer. I feel like this show is so conscientious. The scenes and props are all very real, and the sense of immersion is so strong.

[I’m not a little zombie]: It’s really conscience, just like watching a TV series!Moreover, there are really very few programs of this type in China, and they are completely suitable for suspense fans like me!Just watching the trailer gave me goosebumps, and it became a hit and pre-ordered.

[Hehehehehehe]: The program team feels that they have played a big game. The trailer cannot tell who the dark character is, but they are really good at choosing guests!Fans of Zhou Ziheng and he are really awesome!A high-IQ actor x a high-IQ artist fell in love with each other and fell in love.

…

Jiang Yin is truly a gold medal producer, and the effect she produced is even more exaggerated than Xia Xiqing imagined. Nearly half of the 10,000 comments are discussing Zhou Ziheng and his CP.

I don’t know how Zhou Ziheng will feel when he sees this trailer now.Thinking about it this way, Xia Xiqing seemed to be able to see he looking unhappy with a straight face.When he got interested, he wanted to tease him again. As soon as he opened the WeChat interface, Xia Xiqing hesitated again. He discovered a problem. It seemed like it was the first time that he was in such a hurry.

Looking at the chat box that never responded to the message, Xia Xiqing finally logged out of WeChat and threw the phone on the sofa.

As soon as I dropped it, the call came.I was quite happy at first, thinking it was Zhou Ziheng, that silly boy, who had enlightened me. Unexpectedly, the caller ID showed another person. The smile on Xia Xiqing’s face gradually turned cold, but he finally answered the call.

After making the call, he walked around the living room a few times, smoked a cigarette, put on more formal clothes and went out.

Before picking up the car, I sent a message to the four-person WeChat group.

[Xia Xiqing]: Let’s put aside today’s game.

[Chen Fang]: Are you letting us go just to catch Kaizi?

[Xia Zhixu]: Cheers.jpg

[Xu Qichen]: What’s wrong?I also said that I would buy some groceries with Zhixu later and bring them over to cook for you.

[Xia Xiqing]: I have something to do at the moment, let’s do it tomorrow. I’ll prepare wine and wait for you tomorrow~ Chenchen, I want to eat boiled fish~

After explaining Xia Xiqing’s instructions, he started the car. It was almost the evening rush hour and the road was heavily blocked.

Fortunately, there was an umbrella in the car. I didn’t know which lover left it before, so I didn’t have to choose. After parking the car, Xia Xiqing came down with the umbrella and looked around. At six o’clock in the afternoon, the school gate was full of students and parents in school uniforms. One after another, colorful umbrella covers blocked most of the sight.

Where is it?Xia Xiqing raised the umbrella and looked at the high school students passing by.Suddenly, I felt someone bump into him from behind, his arms wrapped around his waist.

“Brother!”

Xia Xiqing sighed and opened the arms around his waist. When he turned around, he saw Xia Xiuze’s smiling face, with wet hair hanging down on his forehead, and a pair of eyes that looked like he’s and were bent into crescent moons.

“Why don’t you let your dad come?” Facing the smiling face of his so-called “brother,” Xia Xiqing didn’t show a good expression. He pushed the umbrella handle in his hand into Xia Xiuze’s arms and said, “Take it.”

“He went to England to discuss business.” Xia Xiuze took the umbrella and held it for Xia Xiqing. Most of his shoulders were exposed. He was obviously still a freshman in high school, but he was very fast. He was only half a head behind Xia Xiqing.

Then you won’t find your mother.Xia Xiqing originally wanted to ask this, but in the end he didn’t say anything. He just said coldly, “What can your teacher do to you without your parents? Do you have to find someone to come?”

Xia Xiuze bit the inside of his lip and whispered, “We all have parents here… I, if I… don’t feel good.”

“What’s wrong? I’m still graduating.” Xia Xiqing said unforgivingly, but still walked towards Xia Xiuze’s school.Xia Xiuze understood that his brother had agreed, and he happily held an umbrella for his brother, taking advantage of the opportunity of holding the same umbrella to stay close to him.

He has admired his brother since he was a child. He thinks he is the most powerful and beautiful person in the world. No one dislikes his brother, and he is the one he likes the most.

But after all, the blood flowing on their bodies is not exactly the same.

Xia Xiuze’s mother got involved in Xia Xiqing’s family.A family that was already incomplete finally truly fell apart, and Xia Xiuze was the crystallization of this collapse.

Xia Xiuze has never received a good look from Xia Xiqing since he was a child. He has always been afraid of his brother, who is ten years older than him, because he is always arrogant and ignores the existence of their mother and son.Until the day of my sixth birthday, I dressed like a little prince and invited the entire class to a party at home.Standing by the window and instructing everyone to play games, he looked downstairs and inadvertently saw his beaten brother sitting on the steps of his home limping.

He climbed on the stool and searched for a long time in the cabinet filled with gifts, only to find a small band-aid.Xia Xiuze ran downstairs and walked to his brother’s side carefully holding the band-aid. He didn’t dare to speak for a long time.

When he stood until his legs were weak, his brother finally turned his head.The sharp moonlight pierced the side of his face, and the bloody corners of his mouth were raised as proudly as usual, like a gorgeous and decadent rose.

“Are you happy?”

Celebrating a birthday is a happy event.

It should be a happy thing to see me in such a mess.

Xia Xiuze didn’t dare to speak, so he just stepped forward and handed the band-aid over, “Brother, I’ll put it on for you. It won’t hurt anymore.”

That night, Xia Xiqing hugged him for the first time, just like hugging a real younger brother.

Buried on that little shoulder, I cried bitterly.
