At noon, Gu Miao was having his meal in the personal lounge on the 23rd floor of the company. Due to gender issues, he hadn’t made many friends in the entertainment industry. Being too close with anyone, regardless of gender, wasn’t appropriate and could easily lead to exposure. Not to mention, he was also a “cold and aloof mute,” which created communication barriers with people. He got along well with the girl group, but there were some topics he couldn’t participate in. Therefore, most of the time, Gu Miao preferred to eat alone.
Suddenly, a shadow fell over him. Gu Miao liked to sit on the carpet and eat with a small folding table, but now his whole body was enveloped in shadow.
Gu Miao looked up and saw Fu Zhen, who had come to find him, breaking the silence for the first time.
Gu Miao felt a bit sentimental, as if his own child had finally learned to speak.
Fu Zhen said that because of Gu Miao’s personal issues, their rehearsal wasn’t going smoothly, so he suggested rehearsing in a small classroom alone.
The personal issue referred to Gu Miao’s last-minute change of moves.
Gu Miao widened his eyes. He was indeed too unprofessional! He actually forced Fu Zhen to speak to him about this. The situation must be very serious.
Without saying a word, Gu Miao nodded.
Fu Zhen led Gu Miao to a practice room on the top floor. “Let’s use this one.”
He glanced at Gu Miao’s fake chest for a moment, then turned to his slightly powdered cheeks, furrowing his brow as he asked, “Sorry, I was in a hurry. Do you want to rest for a while?”
Sitting quietly after a meal is better for digestion. We can also sit down and talk. Fu Zhen thought.
[“No, no need.”] It would be too awkward for two pretend mutes to sit together. Gu Miao, feeling like he was dragging his feet on his professional skills for the first time, was determined to get through these moves as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
Because he had just finished eating, the fake chest, which was already uncomfortable, felt even tighter and heavier, making his face turn red.
He glanced at Fu Zhen and, thinking of his indifferent attitude towards cross-dressing, tentatively suggested, [“Since there’s no one else here, can I take it off?”]
Fu Zhen looked at the line of text on Gu Miao’s phone and was very satisfied with the phrase “no one else here.” and said “Do as you wish.”
After a moment of thought, he added, “In the future, when it’s just the two of us, you don’t have to wear it or put on makeup.”
Gu Miao pursed his lips, feeling a bit happy, and casually pulled down his clothes.
As Gu Miao changed his clothes, Fu Zhen accidentally saw his soft, white chest. It was red and seemed painful, evoking a sense of heartache and an inexplicable surge of strong emotions. Suddenly, Fu Zhen covered his nosebleed with his hand.
“Does it hurt?”
[“N-no, it doesn’t.”] Gu Miao was suddenly startled as Fu Zhen’s slightly cool fingertips touched his chest, sending a surge of electricity up his spine.
Fu Zhen’s gaze was deep, and before either of them could react, he nodded slightly and gently blew on the spot where his fingers met Gu Miao’s skin.
Gu Miao’s skin reacted faster than his brain, as if a warm spring breeze swept through a peach blossom forest, spreading pink blushes all over the mountain, growing warmer and more intense by the moment, until it blossomed into a fiery mess.
Gu Miao’s heart trembled. Based on past experience, this was a sign of kidney deficiency.
“Sorry.” This time it was Fu Zhen who couldn’t bear it first, his voice muffled, “I’ll go to the bathroom for a moment.”
Gu Miao waited outside for ten minutes, but Fu Zhen hadn’t come out yet. His manager came over first. “There’s something going on with the group. Gu Miao, I’ll take you away first,” the manager said to the closed bathroom door.
After a while, a faint “Hmm” came from inside the bathroom.
The manager: Why do I feel a nervous and exciting sensation like stealing food from a tiger’s mouth?
…
When Fu Zhen returned, he told his teammates that he wanted to poach someone, the dance lead of the neighboring girl group.
Teammate One: What the hell, Captain, wake up! We’re a boy group! Who said we couldn’t even have a female mosquito in our apartment?! Who made the rules in the first place?!
Teammate Two: Relying on looks to poach people, huh?
Teammate Three: Captain, you can’t just like someone because they don’t talk…
Teammates Two and Three left.
Fu Zhen mentioned this idea to Gu Miao.
Gu Miao was extremely panicked. Kidney deficiency every day was terrifying enough, and he couldn’t afford to agree!
The manager was even more panicked: People from the higher-ups have already come to ask about your economic contract. The boy group has a lot of money and influence. How about you just go along with it?
Considering Gu Miao’s gender, now that a boy group was extending an olive branch, although the manager was reluctant, it was clear that joining the boy group was the best option for Gu Miao. His voice was decent, so he could sing in the boy group too.
Gu Miao secretly thought to himself: He had already saved enough money. If he continued to stay in the entertainment industry, he would inevitably be discovered as a biological male sooner or later. With only half a year left on his contract, he might as well retire when the time came.
His legs trembled at the thought of Fu Zhen! It was impossible to date anyone in the entertainment industry, not in this lifetime. Coming out would be troublesome, and he’d be chased by paparazzi at every turn.
It was another Friday. This time, Fu Zhen was well-prepared and deliberately chose a day when the manager wasn’t there. “Changing the moves isn’t a problem, but this chest of yours… I’m allergic to silicone.”
Gu Miao clacked away at his phone: [“Are you allergic even with two layers of clothing in between?”]
Fu Zhen reached out his hand, showing seven big red rashes on top, looking very delicate, as if he could have an allergic reaction even from ten meters away.
Actually, Fu Zhen intentionally let the mosquitoes bite him in the flower bed last night.
Gu Miao felt extremely guilty. He had heard of people being allergic to mangoes, breaking out in rashes just from the smell. [“What should we do then? Should I switch with our captain and you pair up with her?”]
“No, that won’t work. It’s based on height, and your captain isn’t tall enough. How about this, I know a friend who can get you one made of a different material.”
Gu Miao blushed and thanked him, saying that his chest had been prepared by the other girls in the group. Being his first time cross-dressing, he was clueless about the size of the fake chest.
Everyone in the girl group knew that Gu Miao was actually a male, and they treated him like a mascot, so when it came to mixing in the dance, to maintain harmony within the group, everyone unanimously decided to push Gu Miao, who had the least competitive edge, to the forefront. It just so happened that Fu Zhen also specifically requested Gu Miao, making everyone happy.
Fu Zhen narrowed his eyes, tapping Gu Miao’s forehead: “How can you trust someone else with something so intimate? It’s not safe, you know!”
Gu Miao weakly argued back: [“Nothing has happened so far, and they’ve all been very good to me.”]
As a final touch, he glanced at Fu Zhen, who stood with righteousness, and added another line of text: [You’re also very good.]
However, Gu Miao had no idea that Fu Zhen’s friend was… a developer of adult products.
Gu Miao was initially happy when he received it. It was light, looked good, and he could finally relax his neck. However, the skin feel was a bit strange. Itchy…?
But he couldn’t say it out loud, nor could he type it out. Gu Miao could only attribute it to being unaccustomed to the change in material.
Fu Zhen, with a mysterious gaze, glanced at Gu Miao’s blushing face and received a message from his friend.
—Hehe, become a real person. Three years warranty, just pay the final installment. Fu Zhen happily transferred an extra zero to him.
—Aren’t you only interested in men? You’re not turning into a single and perverted guy, are you?! I won’t be brothers with a pervert.
Fu Zhen: Get lost!
When Fu Zhen held Gu Miao, he noticed that without those three pounds of silicone, Gu Miao was really thin and light. Quietly, he shifted their “staircase play” from the fifth floor to the seventh floor.
