The audience was used to seeing submissive and bullied female leads. When they saw this kind of vengeful female lead, their eyes lit up.
She even had the support of Luo Xingguang. Even if he didn’t have any acting skills, he was pleasant to look at, not to mention that he had acting skills.
Qin Yi met the neighbor who had just moved across from her. It was ‘lust’ at first sight.
She dressed gorgeously and went to borrow things from him. She borrowed a hairdryer today and a bowl the next day. Each time, she found a different reason, resulting in mixed reactions.
All in all, this was a sweet love drama. It was completely different from Song Yaoyao’s last drama, Concubine Yan.
When they found out that The Boyfriend Next Door was going to be broadcast, several TV series were rescheduled.
It turned out that they had done the right thing.
Because as soon as The Boyfriend Next Door was broadcast, it immediately flooded the top search lists, and people discussed on all forms of social media.
“Ahhh. At first, I was worried that there was some kind of conspiracy, and it kept me on the edge of my seat. I didn’t expect it to turn out so sweet!”
“Who would have thought that the director who filmed Concubine Yan would be the same director as The Boyfriend Next Door. The schemes in Concubine Yan made me so stressed. This change made me worry that Director Song had something hiding up her sleeves! In the end, it was so sweet that my teeth almost fell out!”
…
Other than that, there were also fans who specifically listed the differences between The Boyfriend Next Door and other idol dramas.
One of the differences was the extravagance.
This was Song Yaoyao’s usual style. She only had two works so far, but whether it was the exquisite props and costumes of Concubine Yan or the extravagance of The Boyfriend Next Door, none of them could be compared to an ordinary TV series.
In particular, the wine cabinet on the wall which was filled with all kinds of famous wines was a highlight. It was even screenshotted by someone, leading to a wide discussion among collectors. In the end, they came to a conclusion: As expected from Director Song!
At the restaurant.
Several actors from The Boyfriend Next Door were there.
“Director Song, congratulations.”
“Congratulations, Director Song!”
“As expected of you, Teacher Song!”
The group joked around and stood up to toast Song Yaoyao. Song Yaoyao had tea instead of alcohol and took a sip with a smile on her face.
Tang Xinrou took a sip of the wine and smacked the table arrogantly. In the next moment, she became dispirited again and said enviously, “Huhuhu, I also want to date Teacher Fu.”
After watching the drama, which young girl’s heart wasn’t thumping? They really had to call Song Yaoyao an expert; she was too good.
There were all kinds of flirtatious and counter-flirtatious scenes, so sweet that they made one’s teeth ache.
The Teacher Fu that Tang Xinrou was talking about was the male lead of The Boyfriend Next Door, Fu Sheng.
Hearing this, Luo Xingguang raised his eyebrows casually and looked at her from the corner of his eyes. “So you have a crush on me?” As he said this, he shook his head as if he hadn’t expected it.
“Bullsh*t!”
Tang Xinrou spat. “I’m talking about Teacher Fu, understand?”
“Teacher Fu is played by me, so you must like me.”
“Scram, scram, scram. I have a family.”
Tang Xinrou rolled her eyes and repeatedly waved for him to scram.
Everyone laughed loudly. During filming, Tang Xinrou would come to visit from time to time. Apart from knowing that Tang Xinrou and Song Yaoyao were very good friends, the staff knew that she also had a good relationship with Luo Xingguang too.
To be honest, their statuses were far from Luo Xingguang’s, so there was always a sense of distance when they spoke. If it wasn’t for the relationship between Song Yaoyao and Luo Xingguang, how could they have hired him to film a sweet idol drama?
Song Weiwei pursed her lips and smiled. She stood up and said, “I also want to propose a toast to Miss Song. Thank you for changing my life.”
The glasses clinked, making a crisp sound. Their gazes met, and everything went without saying.
Due to the joy it created, the moment The Boyfriend Next Door aired, the viewership ratings raced ahead of the other television stations, and the discussions soared. The viewers knew the quality of Song Yaoyao’s work, so they weren’t worried that it would fall apart in the later stages. After the drama, even a supporting character would be able to bask in the limelight and climb to the top.
Tang Xinrou was drunk. Song Yaoyao snatched the wine glass from her. “Drink less, there are paparazzi outside.”
“Burp… alright, alright.”
As the night ended, other than Song Yaoyao, everyone else had drunk a lot.
The private room gradually became empty. Song Yaoyao supported her chin as she sat in her seat, waiting for someone to pick her up. Song Weiwei blinked her eyes slowly and suddenly smiled, her eyes turning red.
“Miss Song.”
“Hmmm?”
“Thank you so much, really…”
Her current life was like heaven and it felt surreal. Every day when she woke up and looked at the clean and beautiful room, the room emitted a refreshing fragrance that made her feel relaxed and comfortable; it made her think that she was dreaming. Song Weiwei was afraid that when she woke up, she would return to being Mu Wei, and realize that this happy life was just an illusion. That she was still the poor wretch who slept in the basement and was harassed by drunkards every day.
“Weiwei…”
A figure appeared outside the door. Song Wenchuan was stunned for a moment and stopped in his tracks.
He didn’t seem to have expected to see Song Yaoyao here.
“Brother!”
Song Weiwei was in a daze from drinking and rushed towards Song Wenchuan.
Song Wenchuan didn’t have time to think and quickly caught her. He looked at Song Yaoyao with surprise and embarrassment.
“You didn’t expect me to be here?” The shadows of the trees outside the window swayed and reflected on Song Yaoyao’s face. She turned her small face and her skin was as white as snow. “Today is the celebration party for The Boyfriend Next Door.”
“Yeah, I know. Congratulations, Yaoyao.” Song Wenchuan wanted to say something, but Song Weiwei had already fallen asleep in his arms.
Amidst the mess, Song Yaoyao took the initiative and said, “Take her back first. She’s drunk.”
Even though she had thousands of words, they were stuck in her throat in the end.
Song Wenchuan nodded. “Okay.”
Watching him leave with Song Weiwei in his arms, Song Yaoyao narrowed her eyes and tapped her fingers on the table nonchalantly.
Song Jingwan probably never thought that after all the competing, the one who became Song Wenchuan’s sister was neither her nor Song Yaoyao.
It was Song Weiwei. Someone who Song Jingwan never even considered. The girl that could be fake or could be real: Mu Wei.
Tang Xinrou, who was sleeping soundly at the table, moved uncomfortably and mumbled something while Song Yaoyao patted her back and waited for a while. Eventually, An Feiran arrived.
“Have you waited long?”
“Not long.” Song Yaoyao stretched.
He walked over and helped Tang Xinrou up. Gently, he patted her cheek and called out softly, “Tang Tang, wake up. We should go back.”
“Mmm…”
Tang Xinrou looked at the person in front of her in a daze. “You are…”
An Feiran was both angry and amused. He shook his head helplessly. “What do you think?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xinrou gave him a fierce kiss on the lips.
Muah!
“I know you, you are… you are my boyfriend!”
