Genius Artist – Replacement of the White Moonlight for the Rich CEO
The last thing he remembered was drinking with Huo Lian at the bar. Lu Shijin forgot how he followed Huo Lian home, how he took his clothes off, and why they were sleeping in the same bed.
But he quickly adapted to his surroundings. Since he was here, then he might as well make the best of it.
Huo Lian wasn’t awake yet. Lu Shijin got out of the bed and headed towards the bathroom to shower.
711 kept on asking about what happened last night.
“Yesterday, after I left, what did you talk about with Huo Lian?”
“Nothing, just normal stuff.”
Actually, Huo Lian was colder than Lu Shijin expected. Most of the time, it was Lu Shijin trying to find topics to talk about.
Huo Lian occasionally responded with “En.” Even his “Oh”s were very rare.
“Then how did you follow him home?”
“Don’t remember, I blacked out.”
711 hesitated over what it wanted to ask, then carefully asked, “Are you sure that you two didn’t do anything together?”
Lu Shijin squeezed some lotion onto his hand, expressionlessly spreading it over his body.
“Yes, definitely, and for sure.”
711 didn’t believe him. “How could you be so sure? Didn’t you black out?”
Lu Shijin snorted. “There’s not a mark on me, my waist isn’t sore, my legs aren’t numb and there’s no pain save for my hangover. What could’ve happened?”
711 let out a breath of relief. “That’s good, that’s good.”
“Good your ass.” Lu Shijin wiped his face, “I remember that in Huo Lian’s character profile, he seemed to like males?”
“Yeah, why?”
“Then why wasn’t he salivating over me, a beautiful shou with long legs and a slender waist, when I was by his side? Shouldn’t he have at least touched me a bit?”
He paused, then added, “I even stripped until I only had my underwear left, is my charisma not enough?”
“How could that be!” 711 was very supportive, “Host’s charisma shines in all directions. It’s so bright that I almost can’t see!”
“Heh.” Lu Shijin washed off the bubbles on his body, taking a towel to cover his important areas, “Then that means that Huo Lian is the one with the problem.”
“. . . That might be a possibility.”
“Right, convenience store, has the original host ever done anything with Huo Qi?”
Lu Shijin walked in front of the sink, looking at the mirror.
His pale face was slightly red from the heat, some water clinging onto his eyelashes. It made his peach blossom eyes seem especially moist and vivid.
His lips were slightly parted, plump and full. They held a bit of temptation mixed with all the innocence.
No matter how you looked at it, it was a face that would make people commit crimes.
711 answered truthfully, “No.”
Lu Shijin’s eyebrows shot upward. “Does everyone in the Huo family have problems? Are you sure they don’t have some secret hereditary disease?”
“Of course not! It’s because Ruan Siheng is the protagonist, and most of the audience prefer CPs where they’re devoted to each other both mentally and physically, so Huo Qi could only treat the original host as a mental stand-in and couldn’t have a physical relationship with the original host. He had to keep himself as pure as jade for Ruan Siheng.”
Lu Shijin sneered, it turns out that it wasn’t because he’s not attractive enough, but because he didn’t have the protagonist halo. Naturally, he couldn’t be like them, making people fall in ‘love’ the moment they saw him.
“Oh right, I keep forgetting to ask, when you say ‘audience’, does it refer to the audience in the real world?”
“The world we’re currently in is a virtual world in a different dimension, so the ‘audience’ isn’t actually a group of humans from the real world. Each plot will be sent to all of the dimensions, and the ‘audience’ who have watched it will have many ideas. All of the ideas will come together and condense into spiritual power. Through the progression of the story, the waves of spiritual power can be strengthened. We draw energy from the spiritual power and once we reach a certain point, we can leave this plane.”
Lu Shijin pondered for a while and gained a general idea of the rules of this game.
A single thought created three thousand worlds, the reason that this world could continue existing was due to willpower.
The anticipation the audience felt toward what came first was a type of willpower, the satisfaction when they finished was another type.
“So that means that we just need to get enough energy from the spiritual power?”
“Basically.”
“And if I don’t act according to the plot?”
711 raised his guard. “All of the plots have been tried and tested to be the easiest way to get spiritual power. If you don’t follow it, you definitely won’t get enough!”
“Don’t be so nervous, I’m just asking.”
711 let out a breath of relief. It’s fine as long as he’s not going to follow through with his bad ideas.
“Then another question, how do I know the audience’s reactions?”
“That’s simple, we’re keeping track of it in real time!”
Something similar to a display screen appeared in Lu Shijin’s head. It happened to show the scene of Huo Qi and Ruan Siheng’s long awaited reunion.
Huo Qi finally saw his white moonlight whom he had been yearning for. After so many years, Ruan Siheng was even more beautiful and charming than he remembered. Every movement and smile was enough to make Huo Qi’s heart pound.
The gaze that Huo Qi used to look at Ruan Siheng had a light that wasn’t there when he was with Lu Shijin.
At this time, words similar to a bullet screen appeared on the screen.
【These two protagonists’ looks are on point and their acting seem decent, I’m in.】
【Ruanruan looks so cute, I like~】
【So it’s another one of those enamoured boss CEO types. I’m so tired of them, they don’t have a single bit of originality. I’m leaving.】
【I just want to watch the main characters fall in love, there’d better not be some cheap bitch.】
【I agree with the sister above. Any meddlesome third person in a relationship should go die!】

Lu Shijin: Excuse me?* Is that ‘cheap bitch’ referring to me?
*(Note: English in raws)
711 saw that the story had just started and the bullet screen had already started attacking Lu Shijin without him having made his entrance. 711 was so scared that it quickly shut down the screen.
711 comforted Lu Shijin, “You don’t have to mind what they say. We just have to finish our task.”
Lu Shijin just frowned without saying anything.
