Proofreader: Zhu Yuan

In the early morning of early autumn, the cool breeze blows gently.

Little Watermelon takes off his pants to the knees and sits on the toilet with a serious expression.

Dandan opens door ajar and comes in, getting down on the ground and staring at little Watermelon.

Bo Yu walks in, kicks Dandan incidentally and draws some tissues, “little Watermelon, come here! Wipe your bottom.”

“Oh.” Little Watermelon answers and then obediently comes over to him.

On seeing that, Bo Yu quickly put down the lid of the toilet and pushes the b.u.t.ton.

Dandan stops by the toilet, looking alienated.

“Papa, what happened to Dandan?”

“The leopard cannot change his spots. Remember to close the door next time when you go to the bathroom.” Bo Yu watches little Watermelon wipe his bottom. Then Bo Yu wipes it again.

It is the first day of work today, and Bo Yu can’t be late. So, in the early morning, he sends little Watermelon to the preschool cla.s.s.

This is the first time that little Watermelon is away from Bo Yu. It is hard for him to express his fear. He tightly holds the edge of Bo Yu’s clothes by his fingers and says tearfully, “Papa, will you take me home?”

Kids are always restless when they firstly leave their parents. Especially, little Watermelon is only more than one year old now.

Because Bo Yu cannot stay with little Watermelon at work, he has no choice but to say coldly, “Of course. Call me when you miss me. If you forget it, ask the teacher to call me.

After a pause, Bo Yu continues, “little Watermelon, let me go. I’m going to make money for you to marry your wife in the future.”

The young female teacher of the preschool cla.s.s walks over and feels Bo Yu’s face familiar at the sight of him, but she cannot recall him for a while and says, “h.e.l.lo, I’m Chen Tingting, responsible for taking care of your baby.”.

After introducing herself briefly, Ms. Chen bends down and says gently, “What’s your name, baby? I'm Teacher Tingting. May I show you around? There are many children here.”

Little Watermelon is unwilling to leave Bo Yu but turns his head, “h.e.l.lo, teacher. My name is little Watermelon.”

Knowing that this is the first time for little Watermelon to have cla.s.ses alone, Ms. Chen doesn’t let him stay with his father long and quickly takes him into the cla.s.sroom.

Bo Yu looks at the back of little Watermelon’s head, feeling a sense of loss.

But that feeling is short-lived.

After clearing up his feeling, Bo Yu goes to work by a new car that costs only 100,000 yuan.

[Tingfeng Agency]

Bo Yu takes out his sungla.s.ses and a mask, and wears them expertly. He rapidly walks towards the hall of the agency.

Tingfeng Agency recruits a group of potential trainees every year.

This year is no exception. So, Bo Yu attracts many people’s attention as soon as he walks into the hall of the agency.

“Who is that? Wearing a mask, he might get a heatstroke.”

“He doesn’t look like a big name, but he seems familiar.”

“Sh, he seems to be Bo Yu. By the way, I remember that Bo Yu is blacklisted by the agency. Why has he come here?”

“Ahh, he is Bo Yu. Well, he doesn’t have any reason to come back after he is forced out by the agency. Why does he wear a mask? There are no paparazzi to take photographs of him.” 

Bo Yu takes no notice of what trainees say and takes the elevator to look for his manager with a calm look.

Bo Yu starts his film career at 16. His debut film is a campus idol film, adapted from a romance. Because of the popular film, he becomes a first-cla.s.s male star and wins great popularity at that time.

But his first manager is not cut out for creating movie stars. Bo Yu’s popularity declines by the next terrible films, and he loses his fame later.

At 20, Bo Yu, who loses his fame, causes a stir in entertainment again because of a role of the detective in a mystery film.

Bo Yu who is born gay meets and falls in love with his wicked ex-boyfriend soon. He forgets everything in the honeymoon.

Bo Yu: If he knows that he will get the skill of giving birth to a baby, he will never choose the position on bottom.

At 22, Bo Yu’s wicked ex-boyfriend comes back. Bo Yu decisively breaks up with him, and they separate.

However, Bo Yu finds that there is a baby in his belly at that time.

The baby is five months old in his bulging belly. The embryo grows up like a meat ball. The young quack advises Bo Yu who disguises in the female attire not to have an abortion but try to give birth to a baby.

Bo Yu has no choice but give up his career. He has been away with his baby in the belly for two years.

Mr. Zhang, the manager, wipes his gla.s.ses and calmly looks at Bo Yu, “Where have you been in these two years?”

“... I remember that I still have two years left on my contract with the agency.” Bo Yu ignores his question on purpose, “I come back to work. I’m sorry about what happened before.”

“Two years are enough to make entertainment circles shuffle again and again and generate batches of trainees.” Mr. Zhang is very angry, "Bo Yu, compared with your popularity two years ago, you are back to nothing now!”

“And, the agency hopes that you will give us a reasonable explanation.” Mr. Zhang says calmly, “You leave without any reason and explanation. As your manager, I cannot explain to the agency.”

“Something bad happened at home.” Bo Yu is too paniced to consider those things at that time. Now he can only say deliberately, “I’m sorry to have caused trouble to the agency.”

“Let’s forget it.” Mr. Zhang knows that he cannot get answers. He has to give up, “Don’t make any trouble since you’ve come back.”

“It’s just that a huge gap exists between your popularity now and two years ago.” Mr. Zhang a.n.a.lyzes the situation, “Don’t have a fantasy to appear in popular films or play the leading male role. You can only play a supporting role in the film.”

“I will try my best.” Bo Yu has no choices. “As for the two years of your disappearance, the agency announces that you go abroad for further study according to the email you send before.” Mr. Zhang adjusts his gla.s.ses and says, “I remember that you can speak some German. Don't betray your ident.i.ty.”

“OK.” Bo Yu sighs, “I want to read the script.”

Where any platform or individual uses translations on flying-lines.com without permission and infringe our translation right, we shall safeguard our legitimate rights and interests through legal channels. If any act against our party has taken place, the tortfeasor shall immediately stop the infringement, eliminate the negative impact, make an apology and compensate for the loss.

Mr. Zhang frowns.

Before Mr. Zhang starts to speak, Bo Yu gives the cold shoulder and says with poker-faced att.i.tude, “You are only my manager. I know about your ability, but I have a better understanding of my strength.”

Mr. Zhang doesn’t know how to reply at once.

If it were two years ago, Mr. Zhang would obey Bo Yu.

But now, Mr. Zhang has brought three stars to prominence. So, he is a little arrogant, keeping a straight face again and again.

“I can stage a comeback once, and there will be the second time.” Bo Yu stands up, prepares to audition with the script in his hand and warns him, “I’m not new. Don’t forget that.”

Bo Yu is not new in entertainment circles. So, he knows clearly their mutual restraint relations.h.i.+p of interest between Mr. Zhang and him. 

So, Bo Yu doesn’t have to bear with Mr. Zhang again and again.

Mr. Zhang looks pale, and his veins angrily stand out.

Bo Yu turns to walk away.

Bo Yu is no longer the first-cla.s.s male star two years ago, and Mr. Zhang is not the manager who has made only one popular star Bo Yu.

Entertainment is never short of topics. Bo Yu has not been active on the screen for two years. It is uncertain whether the audience who only cares about stars’ appearances still remember him or not.

Bo Yu takes out his phone from the pocket, opens the Weibo account that has not been logged in for a long time, takes a picture of the outside through the window, and uploads it.

Bo Yu v: Come back. [picture attached]

After sending a new Weibo message, Bo Yu turns off his phone without reading the fans’ comments and leaves the agency with the script in his hand.

Mr. Zhang gives him two scripts just now, one is the popular Xianxia TV series in this year, and the other is the urban male TV series.

Bo Yu prefers the latter.

The former is very popular this year. All kinds of Xianxia ancient costume TV series come out and frequently occur on the hot list. Although the audience ratings must be very high, the audience will have aesthetic fatigue someday. In addition, the a.s.signed supporting role is common and unremarkable, about the depravation of the pure young brother.

The latter is quite innovative. Although Bo Yu plays only the third male role, he is very interested in it.

As the saying goes, three women can play a drama. But three men together can also make a different play.

The male protagonist is a young antique tutor, always saying archaism such as using “literary jargon” and saying “It is improper for men and women to touch each other’s hand in pa.s.sing objects.” The cute and interesting protagonist will be very popular as long as the actor has the acting skill.

The first supporting male role is a quack. He doesn’t graduate after studying veterinary courses for three years, not even getting a certificate. After one year’s re-study, he chooses to major in surgery, but his medical skills are insufficient.

The second supporting male role is a tech geek and a new daddy. He behaves perfectly in work and household duties.

Bo Yu auditions for the role of the tech geek. The difficulty doesn’t lie in playing the role of it, but in highlighting his own craft.

Two years ago, the focus of Bo Yu’s career is the film instead of TV series. He is limited for fans. His representative of TV series is the detective genre at the age of 20. So, it is good enough to audition for the second supporting male role right now.

In fact, compared with the film, TV series including dozens of seasons is easier to attract the attention of the audience. So, Bo Yu intends to s.h.i.+ft the focus of his recent work to the TV series.

And this urban male TV series is the start of Bo Yu’s comeback.

When Bo Yu comes to the film crew, he finds that there are still many people for audition. Bo Yu looks down, takes the script to the corner and reads it carefully.

The weather turns cold. Bo Yu wears low-key attire, with a mask and sungla.s.ses. So, n.o.body notices that he is Bo Yu for a while.

“Mr. Bo.” The a.s.sistant with gla.s.ses trots up and gasps, “The director says that you can have your audition in the next door and there’s no need to queue up.”

Even though Bo Yu has not been active in films for two years and his popularity declines, he cannot be treated casually by the unknown film crew.

Smiling at the a.s.sistant, Bo Yu stands up and follows him.

“My G.o.d, Bo Yu is here for audition, too?”

“Duh, so what? We’re no worse than him.” A third-cla.s.s male star looks surly and nervous. He is worried that Bo Yu may have the audition for the same role with him.

“If I know it, I will ask Bo Yu to take a photo with me.” Someone else sighs for pity.

Bo Yu pushes the door open and finds that there are some unfamiliar directors and male stars sitting in it. Bo Yu hides his doubts and says with a smile, “h.e.l.lo, I am Bo Yu.”

Director w.a.n.g glances at Bo Yu, nods without words, and turns his head to look at a new actor and points at him, “You act a part please.”

Bo Yu finds a seat to sit down and looks secretly at the three people who sits next to him up and down.

Ran Fei knows that Bo Yu hasn’t recognized himself, gritting his teeth and volunteers, “h.e.l.lo, my predecessor.”

 “You are?” Bo Yu puts down the script and looks at Ran Fei.

Ran Fei laughs, “Hi, senior, my name is Ran Fei. I’ve just signed a contract with Tingfeng Agency this year. My manager tells me I have the audition today. Unexpectedly, I run into you by chance. What a coincidence!”

The smile on Bo Yu’s face deepens, “It’s really a coincidence.”

Ran Fei repeatedly calls him senior, that is to satirize him that he is not as good as a new actor. As the saying goes, one who knows nothing fears nothing.

Perhaps because of Bo Yu’s household gentle image of films, even new actors dare to insult him.

However, Ran Fei dares to insult him in the face of the director in public, which proves that he has a low EQ.

Bo Yu disregards him and concentrates on the script.

It’s better to think about how to play the role rather than meaningless arguments.

Ran Fei has no idea that Bo Yu disregards him completely. He looks angry at once but dares not lose his temper in front of the director once again, so he has no choice but bite the bullet.

“Ran Fei.” Director w.a.n.g takes a look at him and says calmly, “Come here and act your part.”

Ran Fei nods, stands up calmly, bows in the direction of the director and the writer, and closes his eyes. When he opens his eyes, he is in the character.

Bo Yu puts down the script and looks at him with interest.
