Full-time actor

It's another day of training, and all Chen Yu needs to do is... lie down.

Even that might not be enough.

Gotta eat!

Eat it hard.

Shen Xiaoqin was just about to go out to buy groceries. Although there was a nanny to do these things, it was a rare free day so she decided to go out for a walk.

The moment I opened the door, I saw Chen Yu and Liu Yifei standing at the door, looking at each other.

Don't understand what the operation is?
However, she was naturally happy to see this scene. After all, Liu Yifei would marry into their family sooner or later.

"Auntie, are you going out?"

Liu Yifei quickly changed her expression and turned to Shen Xiaoqin's side.

The sweet voice made Shen Xiaoqin happy.

"Auntie is going to buy groceries. I'll ask your mother to come over after get off work for dinner."

Chen Yu ignored Liu Yifei's resentful expression and said, "Mom, cook more delicious food during this period!"

"?"

Shen Xiaoqin was a little stunned by these words. After all, this child had been eating boiled broccoli and eggs every day for some time.

"Why did you suddenly change your gender?"

Facing Shen Xiaoqin's confusion, Liu Yifei directly put her arms around her and said with a smile: "Chen Yu is trying hard to gain weight for the role..."

This is also the reason why Liu Yifei had just quarreled with Chen Yu.

One is to practice to maintain the character status, the other...

After Shen Xiaoqin heard this, she understood everything. Her son was always so serious about his work that he would get stuck in a rut.

There is no other way except to support.

Liu Yifei glared at Chen Yu hatefully, and then volunteered to go shopping with him. Shen Xiaoqin was naturally happy about it, as it could also help to enhance their relationship.

After saying hello, the two of them left, completely ignoring Chen Yu's depressed look behind him.

But he happened to have something else to deal with, and he needed to contact the filming set of "The Grand Budapest Hotel".

In order to do this matter to perfection, he naturally would not miss any details.

I made the call and asked as many questions as possible about the matters before the filming.

After it was dealt with, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The most important thing now is to gain some weight as soon as possible so that we can start filming "Black Coal, Thin Ice".

For the next period of time, Chen Yu lived a life of gaining weight.

On the other hand, Liu Yifei was under strict surveillance by Chen Yu every day.

"Husband~"

Liu Yifei's coquettish voice came, and she was already exhausted, but Chen Yu had no intention of asking her to stop.

"continue."

He was truly impartial and just, which made Liu Yifei feel like crying but without tears.

Why? He can be so comfortable!

Seeing Liu Yifei's little face completely wrinkled, even though she was indignant, she could only accept her fate and exercise.

His hands did not stop moving, his fingertips tapped on the keyboard, and from time to time he looked up at where Liu Yifei was.

Although she was a little jealous that Chen Yu could lie down, Liu Yifei was also aware of the latter's good intentions.

Both of them fought for their roles, so there is no need to complain.

but--

The voice in front of him stopped abruptly. When Chen Yu was about to look up, someone approached him from behind.

The little head was tilted on Chen Yu's shoulder. Due to the intense exercise, the whole person was panting and the temperature obviously rose by one degree.

"Honey, I'm so tired~"

The breath of the person behind him sprayed on Chen Yu's neck, which caused him to straighten his back involuntarily.

It seems that this is a roundabout way to save the country.

Liu Yifei raised her fingers and drew circles on Chen Yu's chest. After a moment, the man in front of her finally closed the computer.

***
It was three days after meeting Lauren Dutron again that Chen Yu finally sold the distribution rights of "Better Days" to MK 2.

The final issue price was settled at 1000 million euros.

"Then I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation next."

Lauren Dutron is in high spirits. The fact that he has obtained the distribution rights for "Better Days" is enough to make him happy.

Chen Yu shook hands with him. This was the result of his careful consideration and it was also beneficial to him.

Seeing Lauren Dutron leaving Yu Xin, Liu Yifei's expression changed slightly.

She knew that Chen Yu did all this for her.

If it wasn't for her winning the award, perhaps the current situation wouldn't have happened.

she knows--

She is determined to win the award this time.

When Chen Yu pushed the door open and walked out, he noticed Liu Yifei's furrowed brows.

This made him sneer. It seemed that the little girl was having wild thoughts again.

Chen Yu walked over, stretched out his hand and gently patted Liu Yifei on the head.

The latter turned around suddenly, and when he saw Chen Yu, he couldn't help but raise his head.

Chen Yu certainly knew what Liu Yifei was thinking: "Don't let your imagination run wild. I definitely have my reasons!"

"Oh~~~"

Liu Yifei took the opportunity to look up and pecked Chen Yu's lips, her eyes sparkling so brightly that people couldn't look away.

"Hubby, I will work harder for 'Fireworks in the Daytime'."

“I will definitely perform well next time!”

The person in front of him spoke with great confidence, while Chen Yu simply held her in his arms.

That afternoon, the news that the distribution rights of "Better Days" had been acquired by MK2 had already spread internally.

There are actually no secrets in the film industry.

This made some film studios that were eager to work with Chen Yu at the time quite angry.

After all, they know the value of the movie "Better Days".

Luc Besson of Europa even called Chen Yu directly.

"Hey! Chan."

“Are you sure you want to sell the distribution rights to MK2? Art films are not mainstream after all. They have no way of tapping into the commercial value of Better Days.”

Luc Besson was a little depressed.

He has been communicating with the person in charge of Yuxin Pictures these days, and has stated that no matter how much price other film companies offer, he will pay more than double it.

Unexpectedly, MK2 took the lead in the end.

"Director Luc, I can totally sense your eagerness to work with me."

"But this time, 'Better Days' has a different meaning in my heart. I don't just see it as a commercial movie."

"Sorry, I'll definitely do it next time!"

"..."

Luc Besson was a little annoyed.

To be honest, he could probably guess the real reason behind this.

There is an old Chinese saying that goes:

Good birds choose trees to roost in.

"Well, I hope we still have a chance to cooperate!"

"I still say the same thing as before. No matter what their offer is, I can always offer a higher price!"

Luc Besson really wants to work with Chen Yu. His commercial value is there, and even if it is an art film, it will have a high traffic.

Of course, Chen Yu also saw his sincerity.

"I'll think about it for the next movie!"

After hanging up the phone with Luc Besson, the copyright battle ended with his complete defeat.

Liu Yifei had been staying by Chen Yu's side, so naturally she heard some of the content of the call.

There was a hint of melancholy between his brows again. If it weren't for her, the price of the distribution rights of "Better Days" would definitely be higher.

Day two.

After a week of overeating, Chen Yu was ready to witness a miracle.

Liu Yifei was even more excited. They had been busy looking for a venue and handling the distribution rights of "Better Days" in the past two days.

I am so busy that I can't stop. Although I eat a lot of meat and fish every day, I have no chance to know my current weight.

but--

Liu Yifei did not say it explicitly. Although Chen Yu had been eating meat for every meal these days, their work intensity was not small, so Chen Yu did not look like he had gained weight.

When playing the role of Bruce Lee, Chen Yu evolved all the muscles in his body into tendon meat.

It would be a lie to say that there has been no change. After all, the tendons in the body have become somewhat loose, and the hard muscles in the abdomen have now fused together.

Mm, a whole set of abdominal muscles!

"Okay, you can get on the scale now."

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Yu with a sweet smile. The two of them had not slacked off at all during this period.

After a week, it is time to check the results.

Chen Yu stepped on the electronic scale, and when the two looked over, they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

76 kg.

Chen Yu's previous weight was around 74kg, so after working hard for a week and eating so much greasy and meaty food, he only gained 4kg?!

Is this normal?

Probably noticing Chen Yu's slightly surprised look, Liu Yifei hurriedly pulled the person in front of her down from the scale.

"Maybe we used up too much energy in the past two days. Keep up the good work and keep going!"

Chen Yu came back to his senses and said with a look of understanding:

"It seems I need to have a midnight snack tonight."

what--

Liu Yifei's expression turned bitter. She was the only one who knew the pain she had gone through in the past few days.

I am at an age when I love to eat, but in order to control my figure, I can't eat many things.

The most depressing thing is that I have to eat eggs and broccoli every day and watch Chen Yu eat them with relish.

"Can I veto your midnight snack?"

puff.

Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud, but when he looked over again there was a playful look on his face.

"The veto has no effect."

However, the contrast of Liu Yifei is even stronger than that a week ago.

Compared with her previous roundness, she now looks very charming.

The whole body has become slimmer and the waist is more graceful than before.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Liu Yifei knew that Chen Yu must be a little anxious now. After all, any actor knows that gaining weight is much more difficult than losing weight.

To lose weight, you just need to not eat or drink, but to gain weight, you have to eat and drink a lot.

A normal appetite is only that big. Forcing the food to accumulate completely in the stomach must make Chen Yu feel much more uncomfortable than her.

Liu Yifei jumped onto the electronic scale. After all, she had been working out hard during this period.

In order to achieve the slender figure of the heroine in "Fireworks in the Daytime", she can be said to have broken through her limits.

After all, after knowing that Chen Yu sold the distribution rights of "Better Days" to MK2, she already knew what Chen Yu was thinking.

Whether for Chen Yu or for her future career, she should work harder.

48 kg.

When Liu Yifei noticed her weight, she looked at Chen Yu as if to take credit.

Compared to her initial weight, she lost a full 8 kilograms.

It is relatively difficult to lose weight and fat on a small base, which makes Chen Yu feel distressed.

He saw all the suffering Liu Yifei had endured during this period.

She was not full every day, which was a real pain for her as she loved gourmet food.

"Since you've lost so much weight, I'll take you out for a midnight snack tonight."

what--

Liu Yifei hurriedly shook her head to refuse. This was clearly intended to disturb her mind, so she definitely could not agree to it.

After all, I worked hard for a week to lose these few pounds. If I really agree to have a midnight snack, wouldn’t it be like going back to the time before liberation?

"I reject."

Faced with Liu Yifei's righteous words, of course, refusal is futile.

Towards evening, after dinner, Liu Yifei was dragged by Chen Yu to a barbecue restaurant.

This store's business seems to be very popular, and the store is packed with people.

When the waiter opened the door, the fragrant smell of oil already wafted into the air.

Just smelling the scent made Liu Yifei drool.

He frowned and reached out his hand to pinch Chen Yu's waist, his eyes full of desire for barbecue.

To be precise, the most important thing for an actor is image, so Liu Yifei rarely eats foods high in oil and salt on weekdays.

But eating less doesn't mean she doesn't like it.

hiss~
Chen Yu couldn't help but gasp. When he was muscular, Liu Yifei couldn't pinch him at all.

This action just now really pinched his waist. It would be a lie to say that it didn't hurt.

"Just consider it a reward for your successful weight loss."

The appearance of the two people is very conspicuous. After all, they are handsome men and beautiful women. Even with masks and hats, they are outstanding in both their clothes and temperament.

The waiter at the door was distracted for a moment, then hurriedly led the two people in.

The guests around all fixed their eyes on the two of them. Everyone has eyes that appreciate beauty. Suddenly, two people of good family background appeared in the barbecue restaurant, and many people looked at them sideways.

Liu Yifei took Chen Yu's arm and they asked for a private room. After all, they were public figures and could not reveal their identities in public.

Besides, if they reveal their identities, it will cause a sensation, which may bring trouble to the store.

I was originally planning to cook something at home, but it was getting late so I naturally didn't want to disturb my family.

After thinking it over, Chen Yu suggested going out for a barbecue together.

The customers outside were stunned by the combination of beautiful girls and handsome guys, all of them had tall figures.

"Did you see that? Those two people who just came in look like they could become stars."

The customers nearby were talking about what was going on, totally unaware that the people next to them would be Chen Yu and Liu Yifei.

The two were wrapped up tightly, with even their eyes not showing, so it was normal that they could not be recognized.

Liu Yifei had a look of despair on her face, and she sat in front of Chen Yu, beating her chest and stamping her feet from time to time.

"The grilled bullfrog is good, would you like one?"

Chen Yu's question earned an eye roll from Liu Yifei, who secretly laughed after seeing her reaction.

After telling the waiter what he wanted to order, he couldn't help but be shocked.

"Sir, how about we serve you a portion first? You might not be able to finish these for two people."

Chen Yu nodded.

"Just don't worry, we can eat it."

The waiter at the side did not try to stop them after seeing this. After all, customers came to consume, and maybe their appetite would be bigger than that of ordinary people.

only--

These two people have such good figures, they don’t look like they eat a lot.

Another thing is that the waiter in front of him paused for a moment with the menu.

I always feel that this voice sounds familiar.

Not only the voices, but also the figures and temperaments of the two people are very familiar.

Like the male and female protagonists in that movie that's been very popular recently.

But she quickly shook her head and denied her own idea. If he was really a big star, how could he come to their restaurant to eat barbecue.

"Are you satisfied now?"

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Yu angrily. The glutton in her stomach had already been aroused, and now she wished she could bite off a cow.

"I feel good, but in my heart you are more delicious than barbecue."

It's just glib.

The two did not take off their masks and hats, after all, the waiter would come in soon.

In a short while, all the skewers were served on the table, and both of their eyes lit up at the same time.

Chen Yu ordered so many that all the skewers added up to form a mountain.

"So much? Can you eat it?" (End of this chapter)
