Coaxing His Wife (2)
Xi Chengyun had asked him to not look at his DMs, so he hadn’t logged into his main account often. Two days ago, he’d helped Xia Yang fend off his haters and forgot to switch back to the sub-account.
Just great...
Xi Chengyun’s picture was hung on display for the public on his page.
There were 30,000 comments and 70,000 reposts.
In the comments, there were Xia Yang’s fans who were bowing in gratitude.
Xi Chengyun’s fans lied through their teeth as they commented: 【Who doesn’t have their own hobbies and interests】
There were a lot of ‘HAHAHAs’ in the reposts.
【I want to know Bai Qi’s feelings when he saw Xia Yang receiving a B card from Xi Chengyun. Will the reporters interview him?】
【Starting a crowdfunding to buy Xi-ge a pair of knee guards. At least he wouldn’t feel too much pain when he’s kneeling on durians】
【I’m so envious of Xia Yang. If only Bai Qi were a fan of our Ran Ran QAQ】
Bai Qi was blushing as he read through the comments. The tips of his ears were also turning red.
This was by far the biggest mistake he’d made in his career.
Bai Qi didn’t dare to continue scrolling and quickly turned off his phone. “Sorry...”
Xi Chengyun winded up the shield between the front and back seats and didn’t give an immediate reply.
Bai Qi looked down and said in a soft voice, “What should we do? I think I’ve caused you great trouble... Can you deduct it from my salary...?”
Xi Chengyun’s fingers twitched, and he suppressed his desire to touch Bai Qi’s head.
He had felt a surge of jealousy within him when he first saw Bai Qi’s post about Xia Yang.
It was as if he’d eaten 3 lemons at one go.
But at this moment, Xi Chengyun felt calmer.
Now, Bai Qi looked more like a kid who hasn’t graduated from university, instead of a full-time actor.
If he hadn’t messed up, he would likely think of himself as a passable employee.
But after the little slip-up, he kind of had a change of identity...
Xi Chengyun smiled and said, “What do you mean? All my money is yours.”
When Bai Qi realized Xi Chengyun was still talking like he was in front of the camera, he relaxed a little and the corners of his lips curved upwards. Then, he carefully raised his head and looked at Xi Chengyun.
Xi Chengyun was sitting there with a satisfied look on his face. He asked in return, “Didn’t you read the comments? Rather than your sub-account, people are more worried about whether you’d punish me when we get home.”
Bai Qi felt himself relax completely. His smile grew bigger by the minute, and his eyes seemed to glow. “I don’t have the heart to do so.”
Xi Chengyun looked up at him and asked, “Do you mean it? Or is it an act?”
Xi Chengyun has never asked questions like this.
Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, but he soon realized that Xi Chengyun was just kidding. They’ve been together for so long, so they understand each other much better as compared to when they first met.
Bai Qi nodded. “I mean it!”
After that, he added, “Thank you, Xi-ge.”
Xi Chengyun asked him, “Do you know how to continue to act?”
Bai Qi blinked in response.
Xi Chengyun said, “Don’t you like Xia Yang?... Then, I suppose you’d be slightly unhappy with me giving Xia Yang a B.”
Logically speaking, it didn’t matter how many people he was a fan of; it was his own business, and he didn’t need to feel bad about it.
However, when he came face to face with Xi Chengyun, who purposely brought up the topic, Bai Qi felt guilty. He said in a soft voice, “It’s not like I like him a lot, either.”
... Since he had many other idols too... Oh, oops.
Xi Chengyun’s mood was completely different from that of during the recording of the program.
He answered in a low voice, “Mn, so, should we buy durian or a keyboard?”
Bai Qi brought his fingertips together.
‘So, we are really doing this, huh?’
At that moment, he truly felt Xi Chengyun’s gentleness.
Bai Qi looked up and said, “Durian... is still edible.”
Both of them went to the grocery store to buy durian and brought it home.
When Su Meixian got off work, she saw Bai Qi squatting in front of the oven and roasting the durian.
“Qi Qi, are you cooking poop?” Su Meixian was utterly perplexed.
“Durian, want some?” Bai Qi replied.
Su Meixian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Heavens no.” She and Papa Bai disliked durian, but Bai Qi loved it.
Su Meixian hurriedly took a glance around the room. “Has Mr. Xi gone home?”
“No.’ Xi Chengyun replied as he walked out from the kitchen. He’d washed his hands and they were still wet. Su Meixian looked down at them and she couldn’t help but sigh. Actors who can appear on screen are truly different from an average joe.
Even his hands looked like a piece of art.
She watched as the pair of hands reached for a piece of tissue. He dried his hands, sat down next to Bai Qi at the dinner table, and took a piece of durian.
He passed it to Bai Qi. “Go ahead, have a piece.”
And both of them dug into the durian.
Su Meixian was at a loss for words.
‘This... doesn’t seem so bad after all.’
‘There’s someone who Bai Qi can eat that weird thing with.’
At this moment, someone had already posted a picture taken of them on the internet.
【Is this Bai Qi and Xi-ge? I think I bumped into them in the grocery store. So they did end up buying some durian...】
【???】
【Poor Xi-ge】
Xia Yang’s fans began apologizing again.
Meanwhile, Xia Yang followed his manager back to the company building.
