It serves him right, it really does.

Qi Jing seconded him in his heart, but he couldnt help but laugh out loud unwittingly. After all, it still concluded with a happy end. But despite that, youre actually very happy right now, arent you?

Surprisingly enough,

Crossing the bridge noodles

voice disappeared for a moment. After a while, he spoke slowly, I dont really know if Im happy or not. I just feel like it doesnt seem real. Ive known this guy for over a year now and during this time, we would part and reunite, unable to cut each other off completely, so I At that point, I already grew numb to it and decided to not involve myself with him anymore. I was preparing to resign from my job and leave Beijing, but suddenly, he actually did

this

.

Qi Jing was shocked; that slight s.h.i.+ver of his heart shook off the smile from his lips, the atmosphere growing cold in a moment. Is that so He suddenly felt apologetic, saying in a low voice, Im sorry, I didnt know all the details, so if I said something wrong, then please excuse me.

Thats not a problem, The other man didnt seem to mind, speaking in a bleak tone, In fact, I also have a pretty bad personality, so theres also my part in me and him getting to that pointI guess its a sort of retribution. Return Date, your way of living is completely different from ours. There are some things that are better not known.

Even with

Crossing the bridge noodles

saying so, Qi Jing still felt remorseful, staying silent.

Still, At that time,

Crossing the bridge noodles

suddenly spoke lightly, as if chuckling, but also as if sighing, It was the first time for this guy to admit clearly that that he loves me.

When he heard this, a part of Qi Jings memory seemed to resonate with the others words. Even though the end he experienced was completely opposite, the lead-up was the samehe couldnt help but feel very complicated about it.

I think I can understand your feelings, He laughed bitterly, With the partner being a straight man, this path its really so difficult.

And meeting a straight man who wouldnt want to a.s.sume any responsibility, one that would only toss a simple you were actually serious about it in the endit was even more crus.h.i.+ng.

He really couldnt bear to look back at his dark history

He had told me that. He said that you gave him a solid lesson before. In the headphones,

Crossing the bridge noodles

could be heard laughing briefly, his voice sincere as he spoke, Knowing that theres a person who once was in my position speaking out, I feel much more at ease. Thank you.

Hearing him laugh, Qi Jings mood also slowly grew less tense and he finally returned the smile at ease, Its because I got the worst of it, thats why when I saw a similar situation, I didnt think much before scolding him. But he is completely different from my ex. I only knew him for a short time, so its a bit arbitrary of me to say this, but I think that hes not a bad person.

Although he did go through his dark history, working as a reporter these few years let him improve at reading people by a lot, so his general judgement of people would rarely stray far from the reality. And since

Crossing the bridge noodles

had still to comment it with nonsense, it seemed like he didnt miss this time.

And sure enough, the other man hummed with a chuckle and although his next words were all meant to roast

Sleek Horses

, that belittling tone still had a visible trace of warmth to it, That fellow is only cheeky and untrustworthy. He wouldnt do anything real bad, but he sure likes to bully people.

Bully

What kind of bullying do you mean though?

Crossing the bridge noodles

probably meant it in a literal sense, but for some unfathomable reason, Qi Jings thoughts once again went down the gutter of its double meaning, leaving him re-evaluating his life when he snapped out of it.

But from this mention of bullying, Qi Jing suddenly remembered another bullying-related incident.Right, I hadnt had time to talk with you properly before. Do you remember how you asked me why I would always drop the dramas you appeared in? Although I cant be one hundred percent sure of that, there seems to be a person who keeps using your name to push me around in the circle, wanting me to pin the blame on you and start a drama.

But unexpectedly, there was not a single bit of surprise in

Crossing the bridge noodles

voice, instead what he had to say left him surprised in return. Thats exactly what I wanted to talk about todayI investigated the whole matter of withdrawing from the audio dramas, its one of my fans, Reeds, doing.

Qi Jing was taken aback. That person called

Reed

was a pa.s.sionate fan of

Crossing the bridge noodles

, everyone in the circle knew about that. As one of the staff workers, she would often dabble in the dramas starring

Crossing the bridge noodles

, so over time, the t.i.tle of mommy got conferred to her by his fans. In fact, her relations.h.i.+p with

Crossing the bridge noodles

himself wasnt actually all that close, its just that she could get in touch with him a lot thanks to her post as a staff.

But Qi Jing didnt even know her, not to mention having any beef with her. Why would she do that? Thats why this question became even more pivotal.

Because of this.

Crossing the bridge noodles

said as he sent over a picture. Qi Jing opened it to take a lookit turned out to be a screenshot of a QQ chat room recordstrikingly similar in style to the one he had seen before.

Dont ask for my return date: Now that Crossing the bridge noodles considers himself as G.o.ds official CP, he behaves like Her Majesty the Empress, so arrogant. His fans are also so awful, theyre only spamming about Moss everyday.

: But if you played in a popular audio drama like Trap, then wont you get just as popular as him?

Dont ask for my return date: Hehe, just as popular as him? Such an excellent VA as me, of course I would get much better and popular than him. Im just not as shameless as him and dont run around clinging to people, so I never got a chance to collaborate with the Great G.o.d. Now that I finally got such a huge backing as Bronze Sparrow Terrace, I need to get a good hold on that opportunity.

: What do you mean by that?

Dont ask for my return date: I will stir up the G.o.ds fans in the audio drama thread to support methis way the Great G.o.d will slowly start to care more about me and set his heart on me, leaving Crossing the bridge noodles to cool in the dust.

k25J0;k25J0;k25J0;: Return Date, is it really fine for you to do that? After all, Crossing the bridge noodles has quite a lot of fansk2026; What ifk2026;

Dont ask for my return date: And what about it? Are they even remotely as plenty as Bronze Sparrow Terraces fans? As long as he turns towards me, his fans would follow his suitk2014;the majority of Crossing the bridge noodles fans like Bronze Sparrow Terrace, so when the time comes, they would all switch sides, heh.

: I didnt expect you to be so fed up with Crossing the bridge noodles.

Dont ask for my return date: Of course, that boy is so delicate and pure, and he even used thatlovely and pitiful look to earn the Great G.o.ds doting, just seeing this makes me sick.

That boy used that delicate and pure, lovely and pitiful look to earn the doting, just seeing this makes me sick. Qi Jing read it in a deriding tone of an esteemed imperial concubine, only to hear

Crossing the bridge noodles

laugh lightly, probably amused by him. And even he himself wasnt able to contain his laughter. Hahahaha Those lines are just something else.

Crossing the bridge noodles

said calmly, Since the lines sound too fake, its clear to see that someone just forged a fake QQ chat record.

Qi Jing continued for him, Then they gave this forged chat record for Miss Reed to see?

Not to mention

Reed

, this fervent fan, if you gave it to any Rice Noodle Fan to see, they would probably all fly into rage?

Mhm,

Crossing the bridge noodles

confirmed his theory, It was Reed who first told me that you bear ill intentions towards me and that you decline to stay in the same audio drama team as me. After talking with you through a call that day, I felt that something was fishy and went back to ask Reed. She told me while crying that at the time, someone emailed this screenshot to her and that she went completely mad seeing it, but also didnt want to upset me by letting me know, so she made her own choice to run about to squeeze you out of the production teams. She used her ident.i.ty as my so-called mommy to tell the staff members that Im completely out of tune with you, forcing them to kick you out.

He explained briefly before raising a verdict. With things like this, there should be a person behind it all who plans to destroy your public opinion behind your back, making you slowly lose any chance of playing in a drama and deprive you of any footing in the circle.

But Qi Jing laughed instead, neither admitting or denying. If it was only this one screenshot, then I would also think sobut there are two of them

Crossing the bridge noodles

was clearly in the dark about thishe stopped, surprised, then his voice sank a bit, Theres another one?

Hence, Qi Jing found the other chat record

Jade b.u.t.terfly

showed him. The the tone of wording in it was just as grudging, but this time the ID of the person speaking changed to

Crossing the bridge noodles

and the font as well as the formatting of the text were wholly in accordance with the style he used, betraying the thorough level of prep workit was easy to imagine that the forger of this chat record was an expert.

I think that I may not be the only one whos having my public opinion undermined. Qi Jing pointed out slowly, Most probably youre also within this persons calculations.

Because of Bronze Sparrow Terrace? No wonder

Crossing the bridge noodles

was able to refute rumours so oftenhis thinking was clear, and comparing the content of the dialogues in those two pictures, he didnt need much prompting to find the crux of the problem.

Qi Jing nodded. As long as either of us made an uproar because of it and both of those chat records got publicised, the fans from both sides would immediately start to accuse the other side of forging the screenshot, because both of them are indeed forged. No matter whats true and whats false and no matter whose side the onlookers would take Both of us would only suffer because of this with our good name taking a serious blow, and in the end, we would most probably be only left with a choice to kill off our IDs, ending our career in the circle forever.

Moreover, the perpetrator himself would remain unlinked to this, completely untouched.

Luckily he wasnt an impulsive person and

Crossing the bridge noodles

was also very quick-witted, so it didnt lead to an irreversible situation.

Qi Jing summarised it all, what

Jade b.u.t.terfly

had told him and her claims that she had looked for the both of them to play the main roles in her drama, to

Crossing the bridge noodles

.

Jade b.u.t.terfly, this ID I think I have heard it somewhere before. After hearing this,

Crossing the bridge noodles

fell into musing.

Qi Jing coughed with embarra.s.sment. In fact, he could probably imagine where

Crossing the bridge noodles

heard of it. Still, this one might have better remained forgotten

I remember now,

Crossing the bridge noodles

tossed out a lukewarm sentence, The woman who had pursued that guy back in the daythis womans sight really isnt too good.

Qi Jing had to silently light a candle for the person sleeping in the bedroom.

But

Crossing the bridge noodles

didnt diverge from their topic, She told you that since the other main role was you, I refused to play, but in fact I never received any invitation from hershe was lying, but for whether she was the one to forge the chat record, even if I confirm dare to tell with hundred percent certainty, its still as high as ninety percent.

I already gave a good slap to Bronze Sparrow Terraces face tonight and also indirectly made him lose the main male role, so shell surely get angry. If it was really her who forged those chat records, then she would probably publicise the picture you got anonymously, calling it Exposing Dont ask for my return dates true face or something like that At that time, your fans would surely go mad from hate towards me.

Thats precisely what using someone elses hand to deal the killing blow would look like.

Crossing the bridge noodles

contemplated for a moment, seemingly plotting something. After a long while, he suddenly asked, Return Date, I have an idea. Do you want to try it?

The last semi-final of male character auditions Order to End the Heavens, the second main character Fang Yisheng.

There were thirty contestants enlisted for it, so remembering them all would be far from easy.

As the compet.i.tion host who experienced all of the semi-finals before, Yang Chunqu only remembered a bare few IDs of the contestants, one of them being none other than

Dont ask for my return date

.

The reason was very simpleunder the circ.u.mstances of having gathered much more haters than fans, for him to still retain the cultured demeanour, to the point where even his retaliating slap got delivered in a very urbane mannerof course she wouldnt forget him.

Not to mention with how close were the Qin Tuo and Fang Yisheng auditions to each other, the heat from the first had yet to recede, so when No.7,

Dont ask for my return date

, showed up for the audition as according to the line up, it was as if a drop of water fell into a pot of frying oil, instantly erupting in a spirited hubbub. And among them all, the ones with the most exaggerated reaction were none other than

Crossing the bridge noodles

fans.

Audience 1: ( |||)I heard that Dont ask for my return date spoke rudely about Little Noodles Sparrow? Why is that Im so disappointed Although hes not my main life core, hes my life cores man, so I would also not excuse him! Hah!

Audience 2: Raising hand weakly, in one of the G.o.ds fan side group chats I also heard that Dont ask for my return date colluded with a judge to harm G.o.d or something

Audience 3: The dark secrets behind the scene are so scary!! Im only begging to not get our Little Noodles involved!!

Audience 4: Right, Little Noodles is so pure and unsullied, he wouldnt stand a chance against those machinations, Im so worried~

Audience 5: Little Noodles, dont be afraid!! This big sister will be with you, it doesnt matter what happens to us, just as position in the ranking doesnt matter too Its all fine as long as youre happy. Pats Little Noodles head, dont be too upset about the whole case of your man getting bullied.

Audience 6: I didnt listen to the previous audition, so I dont know what actually happened there. But a whole lot of Sparrow fans called me here, seething from fury, to curse out Dons ask for my return date, eh Little Noodles had said before to not be careless with cursing people out, so Ill be a good girl. But if Dont ask for my return date bullies Little Noodles, I will definitely burst into profanities!! (shakes fist)

Looking at the comments in the chat, Qi Jing really didnt know whether to laugh or to sigh.

He didnt know which one, but some researcher had said before that when a message is being pa.s.sed between people, mistakes are bound to appear. Those mistakes would get bigger the longer the message got around, s...o...b..lling into something that could ultimately become a completely different message. This was more than sufficient of an explanation for why, when pa.s.sed on, Bronze Sparrow Terrace reaped what he saw, getting his face slapped by Dont ask for my return date became Bronze Sparrow Terrace got unjustly bullied by Dont ask for my return date.

But

Crossing the bridge noodles

fans when compared to the pure

Bronze Sparrow Terrace

s fans their style really was completely different.

Qi Jing was actually incredibly amused when watching their statements. Those Rice Noodles Fans were so very different from the Rice Noodles Fans in Trap audio drama thread, making him consider in his mind: those people in the thread who fueled the hate in that thread, were they actually his fans?

Just as he was pondering this, Yang Chunqu asked him, already with a smile and even more amiably than during the previous audition, No.7, contestant Dont ask for my return date, welcome back.

Of course, this welcome back didnt only include the compet.i.tion.

Qi Jing smiled lightly and replied with courtesy, Thank you host. Please, dont worry, I will continue to do my best in the compet.i.tion.

Thats great, Although Yang Chunqu made an effort to not show her bias, she was still all in radiant smiles upon hearing this. Before a gentleman, she naturally had to use a poised tone to ask, Then, I will ask the same this time toobefore the start of this audition, do you have something to tell for everyone?

I do, Qi Jings smile lessened a bit as he proclaimed in a meaningful tone, I will give everyone an opening speech unlike anything you have ever heard before.

Once he said this, those in the chat who were there mainly just to watch the fun couldnt sit still, all shouting bravos together.

Audience 1: Hahahahahahahahaha, Dont ask for my return date came out with an opening speech again!! Im looking forward to it!!

Audience 2: Dont ask for my return dates opening speeches just became a sort of natural scenery, didnt it!! (**)Oi

Audience 3: ( ) It cant be that its going to be even more bada.s.s than the speech for Qin Tuo c.r.a.p, c.r.a.p, Im kinda looking forward to it Oi oi oi

Audience 4: Hahahaha, but did Bronze Sparrow Terrace also sign up for Fang Yisheng? I dont know what is he going to say for this speech, but as a purely compet.i.tion enjoyer, Im silently bringing out my stool, eating popcorn as I watch the fun~

Audience 5: Could it be that this time he Is he about to go against G.o.ds official CP, Crossing the bridge noodles?? Cause Crossing the bridge noodles fans seem to be of the same ilk as Bronze Sparrow Terraces fans, all of them coming here to curse Dont ask for my return date

Audience 6: ( )WHAT?? Dont!! Us Rice Noodles Fans dont enjoy cursing people, aaaaah! Please dont involve Little Noodles *sobs*

Dont be like this, hes really getting involved.

Qi Jing looked down, but along with the corners of his lips curling up, he raised his voice slightly, For my speech for the following audition I want to invite contestant No.8Crossing the bridge noodlesto complete it.

The way everyone heard it, it was a blatant provocation

The scene immediately fell into chaos.

No one expected

Dont ask for my return date

, who had just finished slapping the great G.o.ds face, to actually dare to publicly taunt the G.o.ds official CPit seemed like this enmity extended all the way to his family. Immediately, everyone started the discussion, all saying that Dont ask for my return date is so ruthless, hurting two in one slap. There was also a person pasting the link to the previous post about their alleged catfight for their love, bringing the disorder a step further, as if wanting to bring the scene into a chaotic mess.

But what everyone didnt expect was

Crossing the bridge noodles

reply.

No.8 Crossing the bridge noodles: Mhm, I agree to his proposal. Host, please let me use the mic too.

Audience 1: ( |||)Little Noodleeeeeees!

Audience 2: ( |||)Little Noodles is preparing to get in a fight?? Dont! Little Noodles, listen to this sister, quickly back out now, dont get peeved!!

Audience 3: _(:)_ Su-suddenly the atmosphere got so tense!Clutching heart

Audience 4: _(:)_ Commenter above, are you me?! Also clutching heart

Audience 5: I have a premonition that Im about to see a b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre Dont do that! In fact I I like both of those VAs, what to do!!

Audience 6: I saw someone saying this, so Ill also say thisin fact, Im a Time Limit s.h.i.+pper, aaaah!! With this hostile atmosphere right now, Im so torn!! AAAAAH!!

At that time,

Crossing the bridge noodles

icon on mic sequence changed from grey to green, flickering side by side with Qi Jings icon.

Qi Jing chuckled. Even through their mics, it was clear to see that the air between them was relaxed, nothing like the tense atmosphere of the enemies meeting on a narrow road.

Noodles, He directly used the familiar nickname to call the other, greeting him for the second time that night, Good evening.

Return Date, the other replied calmly, Good evening.

Ehh

Everyone present became dumbstruck.

It felt like when, having read the film description before going to the cinema, one finally waited until the much awaited screening, only to realise that the main leads are still the same actors, but the plot turned out to be completely different from the description.

So what about the coming to blows?

And what about the enemies going into frenzy upon catching a glance of each other?

A/N:

The Time Limit s.h.i.+ppers are having a field day (**) (Eh?)

But now that were on it, I really miss Kittys Papa Kittys Papa, if you dont come back quick, I will go on with the Time Limit!! (Oi)

T/N:

Lucilla: I swear, I didnt expect Qi Jings mind to be so in the gutter I think it might be too much internet for him haha~ And! Were getting more Return Date & Noodles interaction! (waves the s.h.i.+p flag in the background)
