Male God vs. Goddess

Of the ten songs in the new album, three of them were selected to make MVs. This percentage was quite high for a new singer who had officially released a music video for the first time, but Lu Yan is famous now. The sales volume of that EP last year was something that even many popular singers could not catch up with, so the company also gave it considerable support.

Starry Sky was not only a brokerage company, it also handled film, television and music, each with its own professional team. This time, Guan Jifei directed Lu Yan’s first MV. Guan Jifei was a director who had directed the most MVs for popular singers in Starry Sky. He was always known for his simple and direct plots and beautiful and fitting artistic conception.

The first song used to make the MV was of course the title song of the album. Needless to say, the songwriters were Bai Xi and Lin Mu. The name of this song was “Speechless”, it meant that loving you did not require words. The lyrics were affectionate and beautiful, and the music was lingering and graceful. It was performed with Lu Yan’s emotional and magnetic voice. To use a popular saying on the Internet nowadays, it makes your ears feel pregnant.

Lu Yan was an actor himself, so he played the leading role in the MV, while the heroine was the innocent goddess Ding Mujie, who had become very popular recently. An idol drama that Ding Mujie participated in last year was currently being broadcast on various major TV stations. She was already very popular, and with this hit drama, she was really worthy of the word “hot”, so she was invited to star in the MV as the heroine. Naturally, it was to put the icing on the cake.

When Ding Mujie debuted, she played a pure and sweet female college student. When the TV series was aired, it was the graduation season. At that time, her image as a campus goddess was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Most of the subsequent films featured this type of pure and lovely characters. With the joint hype from fans and the company, the name of the pure goddess was attached to her. Although the tastes of the audience were now diverse, there would always be a market for this type of image. Men, no matter what they say, always prefer girls who are beautiful and look innocent. And Ding Mujie’s image was definitely worthy of being beautiful and pure. She had long black and shiny hair. When she smiled, she narrowed her eyes slightly, revealing two small pear dimples. She looked gentle and sweet.

However, Ding Mujie off the screen was a carefree, informal, and sometimes a little confused girl. She had never concealed this. On the one hand, she readily accepted the title of pure goddess and performed this image dedicatedly in various roles. On the other  hand, she never deliberately hid her personality off the screen. She was generous and straightforward. The completely different image on and off stage surprised the audience and fans, but also greatly appreciated her.Even those girls who originally didn’t like the innocent image found her so frank and cute. It was conceivable that her popularity was not affected by her true personality, but was liked by more people.

This time, she was invited to be the heroine of Lu Yan’s first MV. In addition to her popularity and suitable image, there was another reason.

Not long ago, about a month after Lu Yan was injured in an accident, Ding Mujie accepted to participate in a TV show. At that time, the host jokingly asked her, if she was the goddess in the eyes of so many people, what did the male god in her eyes look like? Usually when asked such a question, the guests would give an ambiguous answer, and the host would generally not get to the bottom of it.

However, Ding Mujie’s answer was beyond everyone’s expectations, but it also lived up to people’s impression of her straightforward personality. She answered very directly and clearly, “The male idol in my mind is someone like Lu Yan, who is handsome, responsible, a gentleman, brave, and honest. Those who said that Lu Yan had ulterior motives for saving people simply had no idea. In such a situation, how many people would dare to risk their own lives to save people like him? It really hurts my back to stand and talk. Anyway, I absolutely believe in Lu Yan and support him. I hope he can recover soon. I also hope to have the opportunity to work with him. His eyes are so charming. “

Because the show was live, the manager couldn’t stop it even if he wanted to. He could only stomp his feet backstage. This young lady really dared to say anything.

At that time, the controversy caused by Lu Yan had ended, leaving only the occasional small aftermath. Ding Mujie’s public invitation and support immediately aroused heated discussion, but Lu Yan’s fans instantly became very fond of her. They left messages on her Weibo to express their gratitude. Some fans even wished the two of them to be together. After the scolding war started, some people in the circle expressed support for Lu Yan, but none of them were as direct and straightforward as Ding Mujie. Fans seemed to be soothed at once because of the grievances suffered by anti fans. After all, because she debuted earlier, Ding Mujie was the goddess in the eyes of most people who became famous earlier than Lu Yan, and her weight was not light. Of course, at this time, there must be some conspiracy theorists who were saying that Ding Mujie’s move was actually borrowing Lu Yan’s hype, but they were quickly criticized by fans of the two people.

Therefore, after it was confirmed that Lu Yan was going to release a new album and shoot a MV, the official website issued a survey asking fans who they wanted to play the heroine. Ding Mujie undoubtedly received the largest proportion of support. Therefore, the decision to invite Ding Mujie as the heroine this time must be said to have this consideration.

As for Ding Mujie, she was very happy to be able to collaborate with Lu Yan, even though it was just a MV. As for the agent, although he couldn’t stop Ding Mujie from speaking out on the TV show last time, he didn’t expect that the effect was not bad, but rather good. Naturally, he was happy to see the results of this cooperation.

This was the first collaboration between male god and goddess. The handsome man and the beautiful woman were already very interesting just by standing there. What’s more, there was a director Guan who was really good at creating scenes, which made people look forward to it endlessly.

When Ding Mujie saw Lu Yan for the first time, she rushed up to him like a little fan, “Lu Yan, I really like you. Please sign your autograph for me.”

Lu Yan was stunned for a moment. Of course he knew Ding Mujie and what she had said for him some time ago, so he still had a good impression of her. As for the male god’s words, he actually didn’t take it to heart, thinking that the other party was just talking casually, but now it didn’t look like she was just talking casually. Although it felt a bit shameful to sign an autograph for an equally famous actress in the industry, he couldn’t refuse the other party’s frank look. After signing the autograph, they took a photo together at the other party’s request. Ding Mujie changed hands and posted the group photo on Weibo, with the caption, “I’m excited and happy to see the real male god!” with a big smiley face. In an instant, it was flooded with a large number of reposts and congratulatory comments.

After starting filming, Lu Yan discovered that Ding Mujie was not as bad of an actor as the outside world said. Although her acting skills were certainly not comparable to those of empress-level actors, her basic skills were also remarkable. What’s more, shooting such a MV itself didn’t require much acting skills, as long as it was photogenic and beautifully shot, which Ding Mujie could definitely do very well.

After a few scenes, everything went smoothly. Lu Yan was affectionate and Ding Mujie was sweet. They complemented each other. Their talents and looks were tailor-made for them. 

The accident happened while filming the scene where the two met for the first time in the story. The filming time was 11 o’clock in the morning. The weather was very hot. Lu Yan opened his shirt, revealing the T-shirt underneath. Ding Mujie, who was wearing a long white dress, was riding a bicycle. Riding by, the wind blew up the girl’s long hair. After riding the bicycle for a while, she suddenly stopped, and the two of them turned back together. The girl smiled toothily, and the boy’s eyes were filled with surprise, and his heart was beating hard uncontrollably.

This kind of performance was very familiar to Lu Yan, and there was no difficulty at all. However, the director suddenly shouted “Cut”, and Ding Mujie on the other side suddenly covered her mouth and screamed.

Lu Yan was a little confused, and someone next to him shouted, “Blood, Lu Yan, you have a nosebleed.”

Only then did Lu Yan feel something warm under his nose. He reached out and touched it, and it was sticky. Sure enough, he was bleeding. Lu Yan quickly raised his head, and soon someone came over to support him, handed him a tissue and asked him to wipe the blood first, and then plug his nostrils with medical cotton. 

Lu Yan raised his head and was helped to the rest area. The director and Ding Mujie also rushed over and asked with concern, “Lu Yan, how do you feel? Why are you bleeding suddenly?”

“Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Does your head hurt?”

Lu Yan shook his head awkwardly and said, “I don’t feel uncomfortable, it should be fine.”

Soon the accompanying doctor came over to check him, then shrugged and announced, “It’s nothing. It’s probably because of the hot weather.”

At this time, the blood stopped flowing. Lu Yan drank a little more water and was completely fine.

“Even if it’s hot, you may have nosebleeds, right? I can’t stop watching.”

“I can’t stop looking at it. Could it be that Mr. Lu saw Goddess Ding and couldn’t help himself?”

“Haha, it looks like they are all men, we understand.”

…..

Even Guan Jifei also started joking, “Do you want me to give you two hours off to take a shower before you come back?”

Lu Yan was extremely embarrassed, but didn’t know how to explain it. But at this moment, Ding Mujie suddenly blushed after hearing everyone’s words. She felt shy for once and said with her face in her hands, “You guys are so annoying” she twisted her waist and ran away, and everyone burst into laughter.

What’s even more unfortunate was that there happened to be a reporter at the scene to interview. How could such a selling point of news be let go? Someone wrote a report on the spot, and within an hour, it was first reported on the Internet, “Is the weather too hot or is the love faked? The male god bleeds and the goddess blushes. Can we believe in true love?”

Such reports and photos came to life, and a bunch of fans and passers-by, regardless of the truth, started to get together.

That evening, Lu Yan found a deserted corner and secretly made a phone call, “Uh, did you read today’s report?”

There was silence for a while, and then a low voice came over, “What do you think?”

Needless to say, he must have seen it.

Lu Yan felt a little upset, “You wouldn’t believe what it said, would you?”

There was another long silence on the other side, and then the voice became even lower, “It sounds reasonable, man, I understand.”

Lu Yan was a little anxious, “What do you understand? Don’t you believe me? Except for you now… In short, I will not be in love with others…”

The person on the other side said “Pfft”, his voice full of laughter, and he said quickly, “Of course I believe you, don’t worry.”

Lu Yan simply felt the malice of this world. Even Su Mo, who had always been serious, made fun of him. Could it still get better?? He deliberately gritted his teeth and said, “Even you made fun of me. Let’s see how I punish you when I get back.”

The person on the other side kept smiling, “I was wrong, please forgive me Mr. Lu. But what happened? Why do you suddenly get a nosebleed? Is it really too hot? Are you sure it’s okay? ” Su Mo said with serious concern.

Lu Yan sighed, “Maybe it’s because of Aunt Fang.”

“Aunt Fang? What’s going on?” Su Mo asked curiously.

Lu Yan said helplessly, “What did you tell Aunt Fang? Now, in addition to three meals a day, she also makes different kinds of soup for me to drink every day. I probably over-replenished it, and the weather was a bit hot, so…it was such an unlucky thing. It was really embarrassing.”

The person on the other side couldn’t stop laughing, “I just told Aunt Fang that you have been working very hard recently and asked her to make more delicious food for you. I didn’t expect this…”

Unexpectedly, Su Mo would be able to personally experience the effects of Aunt Fang’s tonic soup soon.

At this moment, when he heard the voice of the person opposite who wanted to laugh but was trying to hold it back, imagining his expression at this moment, he felt that his nose that had just stopped moving started to feel itchy again. If it weren’t for the wrong time and place, He really wanted to…

After that, the two chatted for some time. After hanging up the phone, the gentle smile on Lu Yan’s lips could not stop.

When he walked out of the corner, he met a pair of dazzling black eyes. Lu Yan’s expression changed. He didn’t know how much the call just now was heard.

Ding Mujie quickly said, “I didn’t eavesdrop on purpose. I just happened to be passing by, and I didn’t hear anything. Don’t be angry with me.”

Lu Yan calmed down and smiled, “It doesn’t matter, there is nothing wrong with you. Besides, I was not careful, so I can’t blame others.”

Ding Mujie asked carefully, “Is the person you were talking on the phone with just now your girlfriend? Don’t worry, I promise I won’t tell anyone.”

Lu Yan nodded, “it was my lover.”

Ding Mujie’s face suddenly fell, “So you already have a lover, so don’t I have a chance at all? Just now, I thought I really had a chance.”

“Uh,” Lu Yan didn’t know what to say, “I’m sorry.”

Ding Mujie was depressed for a moment and then laughed again, “It doesn’t matter. The male god is meant to be looked up to. It may not be good to be together. Don’t worry, I will keep it a secret for you.” Then some gossip started again, “One more question, is she an insider?”

“no.”

Ding Mujie rolled her eyes and suddenly said, “I still feel a little hurt, and I don’t know if I can get some compensation.” 

Before Lu Yan could frown, she said again, “I saw that there is an aunt who comes to bring you food every day, and the food looks delicious. So, during the time we are shooting, can you give me a little share? The food here is really bad.”

Lu Yan was a little amused when he saw how good she sang and composed. He didn’t expect that the pure goddess in everyone’s mind was still a foodie. In fact, the food here was not as bad as she said. However, the food prepared by Aunt Fang was indeed very tempting. Since the matter started because of Aunt Fang, it was just right for her to resolve it, so Lu Yan nodded readily, “Of course there is no problem with this.”

Ding Mujie suddenly became happy, “As expected of my male god, that’s great.”

Just as she was about to skip away, she suddenly turned back, blinked and said, “If you need my cooperation in anything, just say it.”
