On a drizzly early autumn afternoon, Su Junqian was in a clothing store selecting clothes. After casually picking out a few items, he was about to head to the cashier to pay. However, as he passed the women’s clothing section, he was drawn to a woman who was browsing through the clothes.
The woman had her hair tied in a ponytail and was wearing a sky-blue baseball cap. She was dressed in a dark pink hoodie and a pair of light-colored jeans, with a pair of white sneakers on her feet.
Although the woman’s cap was pulled down low, from the tip of her nose to her lips, to her bright red lips and her graceful, swan-like neck, and then to her simple attire that could not conceal her youthful aura and graceful figure, Su Junqian immediately realized that she was an extremely beautiful woman and was instantly attracted to her.
Driven by an indescribable impulse, Su Junqian approached her and struck up a conversation, saying, “Hello, beautiful. Are you also shopping for clothes?”
The woman looked up at Su Junqian and asked puzzledly, “Do we know each other?”
“No, we don’t. Please don’t get me wrong, I just think you’re very beautiful and wanted to come over to greet you,” Su Junqian said hurriedly.
After speaking, Su Junqian was filled with regret and wished he could find a hole to crawl into. He knew that his approach to starting a conversation was too clumsy and lacked originality. However, to Su Junqian’s delight, he at least received a response from the woman. Moreover, through the slightly raised brim of her cap, he caught a glimpse of her stunning beauty.
She was indeed a great beauty! After reaching this conclusion, Su Junqian became both excited and nervous. Whenever he was alone with a beautiful woman, he would become flustered and lose his ability to communicate normally.
Su Junqian silently scolded himself for being such a loser. Damn it! He still couldn’t be like the male protagonists in movies, casually chatting and laughing with beautiful women he met on the street.
Thinking of this, Su Junqian, whose face was lost due to his awkward approach, hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to disturb you. Goodbye.”
Then, he turned around and left with his clothes in his arms.
To Su Junqian’s surprise, the woman behind him called out to him, “Hey! Wait a minute!”
Su Junqian turned around nervously and asked, “Do you still need something?”
The woman took off her baseball cap, revealing a face as beautiful as a fairy, and said with a smile, “Since you’re so eager to get to know me, let’s get acquainted!”
“Hello, my name is Ye Mushixi. You can call me Mushixi!” The woman not only introduced herself proactively but also extended her slender hand, indicating that she wanted to shake hands with Su Junqian.
Although Su Junqian was very interested in this beautiful woman, considering his clumsy approach just now, he couldn’t help but look puzzled when he saw the woman introducing herself.
However, the confusion on Su Junqian’s face quickly turned into an even more astonished expression. After the woman took off her cap, Su Junqian realized that her appearance was strikingly similar to that of a popular web drama actress who had gained a lot of fame recently.
Seeing Su Junqian’s lack of courage from just now, and now looking at herself with a timid expression, Ye Mushixi couldn’t help but ask with a very approachable smile, “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to get to know me?”
“Uh—, are you, are you Ye Mushixi? The Ye Mushixi from the web drama?” Su Junqian asked in disbelief, while cautiously reaching out to shake hands with Ye Mushixi.
Ye Mushixi said with a self-deprecating tone, “Phew! I was worried that you didn’t know who I was! Everyone says I’ve become somewhat famous, and I initially didn’t believe it. But now it seems it might be true!”
Su Junqian knew that Ye Mushixi said this to help ease his nervousness. But after confirming that the beautiful woman in front of him was indeed the most popular web drama new star at present, Su Junqian became even more nervous.
Facing the friendly Ye Mushixi, Su Junqian felt so regretful inside! He kept cursing himself for why he had to awkwardly approach a strange beautiful woman. Now he had become a complete clown, standing there not knowing what to do, only to be made a laughingstock by others!
“Excuse me, sir, are you having any trouble?” At this moment, a female salesperson noticed the situation and quickly walked over to ask Ye Mushixi. At the same time, she stared at Su Junqian with a vigilant look.
Ye Mushixi smiled and waved her hand at the salesperson, saying, “It’s okay. He’s also my fan. He just came over to ask for my autograph after recognizing me.”
“Oh, I see,” the salesperson said, finally dropping her wary gaze towards Su Junqian.
However, the salesperson still spoke to Su Junqian in a very unfriendly tone, “Sir! This section sells women’s clothing! If you don’t need to choose items for your female friends, please move to the men’s clothing section to continue shopping!”
Hearing the salesperson’s words, Su Junqian felt too embarrassed to stay any longer.
So, he hurriedly said, “Y-yes! I’ve already picked out my clothes! I’ll go pay now! I’m sorry for disturbing you!”
After speaking, Su Junqian walked towards the cashier with his head down.
The salesperson, seeing Su Junqian leave, gave his back a disgusted look. Then, she politely asked Ye Mushixi, “Mushixi, my girlfriend is also your fan. She heard that I got your autograph and wanted me to ask if you could also sign one for her?”
Ye Mushixi took the white T-shirt that the salesperson had prepared in advance and replied very friendly, “Of course, no problem! What’s your girlfriend’s name?”
Su Junqian, too ashamed to stay in the store any longer, left the clothing store with the clothes he had bought, as if fleeing.
However, he hadn’t walked far out of the clothing store when he heard a female voice behind him, “Hey! Why are you walking so fast? We weren’t done talking yet, were we?”
Su Junqian was stunned to hear this and turned around to look in the direction of the voice. As a result, when he saw Ye Mushixi walking towards him quickly, he became nervous all of a sudden.
“Uh—, I didn’t mean to disturb you just now! If you feel offended, I’m willing to apologize for my behavior again!” Su Junqian hurriedly apologized to Ye Mushixi who was catching up.
As for why Su Junqian became so nervous, it was because he noticed that Ye Mushixi was now followed by a man and a woman. Both were dressed in neat black work clothes, clearly Ye Mushixi’s entourage. Perhaps because these two people hadn’t been there before, giving Su Junqian an opportunity, their gazes towards Su Junqian now were filled with strong dissatisfaction and great hostility.
This made Su Junqian even more certain that Ye Mushixi had stopped him to confront him.
Ye Mushixi quickly walked up to Su Junqian, looked up, and with her beautiful eyes hidden under her baseball cap, she gave him a fierce glare. Then she said in a somewhat playful tone, “Humph! You’re aware that your behavior just now was offensive?! But since you know who I am, I’ll forgive you for now!”
Then, Ye Mushixi took out her phone and said in a commanding tone, “Now, give me your contact information!”
“Ah, ah?” Su Junqian didn’t expect Ye Mushixi to say this and couldn’t help taking two steps back, as if he was about to run away at any moment. Because what he was thinking at this moment was that once he left his contact information, he would surely receive a call from the police later.
“Hey! What’s wrong with you! Why have you suddenly become such a coward? Don’t worry! I just think you’re an interesting person and want to get to know you!” Ye Mushixi said with a feigned sinister expression, but her tone was playful.
“Well, okay! Here’s my contact information! I’m sorry! I apologize again for my reckless behavior just now!” Seeing the two staff members standing seriously on either side of him, knowing that he couldn’t escape, Su Junqian could only give his contact information to Ye Mushixi. Moreover, he opened the chat software on his phone and added Ye Mushixi as a friend.
After Ye Mushixi confirmed that Su Junqian’s contact information was real, she satisfactorily made a phone gesture to Su Junqian and said, “Great! Then we’ll keep in touch! See you another day!”
With that, Ye Mushixi turned around and left with the two staff members, no longer paying attention to Su Junqian who was left stunned.
Although Su Junqian obtained Ye Mushixi’s contact information, considering that the process of obtaining it was not glorious, and worried that Ye Mushixi’s company would use legal means to hold him accountable for harassing Ye Mushixi in public, he didn’t dare to tell anyone about this matter, nor did he dare to send messages to Ye Mushixi on the chat software rashly. On the contrary, Su Junqian immediately deleted the first message that Ye Mushixi sent him on the chat software after she left—a smiling expression, which is a common opening remark between two strangers after adding each other as friends.
Fortunately, in the following days, Su Junqian neither received a lawyer’s letter from Ye Mushixi’s company nor a call from the police asking him to go to the police station to cooperate with the investigation into reports of harassing women in public places. Su Junqian’s heart, which had been hanging, gradually relaxed, and his life gradually returned to normal.
But to Su Junqian’s surprise, one evening as he was about to go to bed, he suddenly received a message on his phone.
Su Junqian yawned and opened his phone to check the message. He was surprised to find that the message was actually sent by Ye Mushixi!
“Hey! Are you asleep yet?” Ye Mushixi asked.
“No, not yet. What can I do for you?” Su Junqian replied, with an ominous premonition in his heart.
“Can’t I chat with you if I’m not busy? Also, don’t call me ‘you’! My name is Ye Mushixi! You can call me Mushixi!” After a while, Ye Mushixi responded.
“Okay. So, what can I do for you, Miss Mushixi? I was indeed wrong that day! If you’re still angry, I can apologize to you again!” To avoid getting into unnecessary trouble, Su Junqian hurriedly apologized again.
“Tsk. Since you know you’ve made me angry, is an apology enough?” Ye Mushixi replied.
“Well, what do you want me to do? How about I compensate you? As long as the compensation isn’t too much. After all, I’m just an ordinary working-class person. Please show mercy,” Su Junqian said without thinking.
The reason why Su Junqian immediately thought of giving Ye Mushixi some financial compensation was to quickly get rid of Ye Mushixi’s entanglement. After all, Ye Mushixi had a large number of fans, and her company had a good relationship with the media. So, if Ye Mushixi took it seriously, it would definitely not be good for an ordinary person like him.
Although Su Junqian was a freelance programmer, the popularity of his industry made his income quite substantial. However, to prevent Ye Mushixi from making excessive demands for compensation, Su Junqian emphasized his low income when he voluntarily proposed financial compensation.
In addition, Su Junqian used as tactful a tone as possible to repeatedly imply that he had only approached Ye Mushixi for a chat and had only spoken a few words with her. Even if his behavior had caused trouble for Ye Mushixi, from a legal standpoint, his actions wouldn’t warrant severe punishment.
Su Junqian’s intention was to prevent Ye Mushixi from exaggerating the situation and demanding excessive compensation. Otherwise, once this matter was exposed, the public might think that Ye Mushixi was deliberately making a big deal out of it, using this incident to hype herself up, which could instead damage her own reputation.
To clearly express his meaning, Su Junqian sent several messages to Ye Mushixi in a row.
But as soon as he finished sending these messages, Ye Mushixi immediately replied, “I’m free tomorrow noon. Come to see me.”
“Miss, I’ve already said that I was wrong that day! I’ve apologized to you! And I’ve also said that I agree to compensate you to a certain extent! What else do you want?” Seeing that Ye Mushixi was unmoved by his sincere and repeated apologies, Su Junqian gradually became annoyed and sent another message with increasingly strong words.
As a result, Ye Mushixi just replied in a disdainful tone, “Didn’t you say you wanted to compensate me? Since you’re crying poor, let’s change the way you make it up to me!”
After speaking, Ye Mushixi sent over an address, “I’ll be shooting an advertisement here tomorrow. Come to see me on time at noon!”
"What do you want me to come for?" Su Junqian asked warily.
"Where do you get so much nonsense? Just remember to come on time at noon tomorrow! Goodnight!" Ye Mushixi replied, and then she no longer responded to any more messages from Su Junqian.
Seeing that Ye Mushixi was no longer replying to his messages, even though Su Junqian was usually timid, he also got a bit angry at this moment: "Damn it! What the hell is this? Just because she has gained some fame now, does she think she can just boss people around like this?"
"Forget it! I’ll go see her tomorrow! No matter what she wants, this matter always needs to be resolved! On the contrary, I’ll secretly turn on my phone’s recording function tomorrow. If she tries to use her fame to extort a sum of money from me and hype this incident for her own benefit, I’ll expose the recording!"
Su Junqian was indignantly making plans, and his timid mood gradually improved. He was even a bit eager to meet Ye Mushixi and settle this matter once and for all.
Su Junqian arrived at the location designated by Ye Mushixi on time the next day at noon. It was a newly renovated coffee shop that had not yet started business. As soon as Su Junqian arrived outside the coffee shop, he could see the busy filming crew through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows. So, Su Junqian simply stood outside the coffee shop, playing on his phone while waiting for Ye Mushixi.
"Hey? I didn’t expect you to be so punctual!" Su Junqian had just finished reading a piece of news when he heard Ye Mushixi’s voice coming from behind.
Su Junqian turned around with a hint of displeasure, about to question Ye Mushixi’s intentions, but the moment he caught a glimpse of her stunning beauty, he was left speechless.
Ye Mushixi flicked her fragrant, beautiful hair, then extended her slender hand and asked, "Didn’t I say I wanted economic compensation? So, where’s my money?"
"I, didn’t you say——" Su Junqian’s attention was completely focused on Ye Mushixi’s delicate makeup, so when he heard her suddenly ask for compensation, he was momentarily stunned and didn’t know how to respond. As for his original plan to secretly record their conversation on his phone, it was completely forgotten at this moment.
Ye Mushixi gave the dazed Su Junqian a look and said, "What’s with you?"
Then, Ye Mushixi pointed to a street corner nearby and said, "There’s a great Western restaurant over there. Treat me to lunch there! I got up early to shoot the advertisement, and now I’m starving!"
Without waiting for Su Junqian’s response, Ye Mushixi walked towards the Western restaurant by herself.
Watching Ye Mushixi turn and leave, Su Junqian, who had just come back to his senses, hurriedly chased after her and asked, "You mean the compensation is for me to treat you to lunch?"
"I never said that a meal is the compensation. However, this lunch can be considered the beginning of the compensation!" Ye Mushixi responded with a smile.
Su Junqian was seeing such a beautiful smile up close for the first time, and he was immediately captivated by Ye Mushixi’s charming eyes, leaving his mind completely blank. In this dreamlike state, Su Junqian had lunch with Ye Mushixi. As for what they ate during lunch, Su Junqian had already forgotten!
After lunch, Su Junqian accompanied Ye Mushixi back to the coffee shop where she was shooting the advertisement.
The two of them were silent all the way until they reached the entrance of the coffee shop. It was then that Ye Mushixi said, "Thank you for the lunch. However, this matter can’t just be settled like this. If there’s anything else I need in the future, I’ll contact you again!"
This time, not only was Su Junqian not angry, but he was also delighted upon hearing Ye Mushixi’s words, "Alright! If you need me to treat you again, just let me know!"
"Hmm." Ye Mushixi responded with a hint of shyness, then turned and walked back into the coffee shop with a light and quick pace.
Watching Ye Mushixi’s graceful figure enter the coffee shop, Su Junqian finally breathed a sigh of relief, then left the coffee shop with an uncontrollable joy on his face.
In the following days, although Su Junqian didn’t see Ye Mushixi, he would occasionally receive messages from her. Sometimes Ye Mushixi would proactively ask what Su Junqian was doing, and other times she would complain to him about how tired she was. There were even one or two instances where Ye Mushixi, under the guise of seeking Su Junqian’s opinion, sent him the stills from her photoshoot on the set, allowing Su Junqian to exhaust his vocabulary in praising her beauty.
Ye Mushixi would occasionally send messages to Su Junqian, and each time after a brief exchange, she would disappear without a trace. However, it was this on-again, off-again interaction that quickly sowed the seeds of affection in Su Junqian’s heart, and in his chats with Ye Mushixi, he seemed to taste the sweetness of love.
While Su Junqian was feeling the happiness of being in love, he also had a small regret. That was, during this period, Su Junqian had also mustered up the courage to proactively send a few messages to Ye Mushixi. But Ye Mushixi never responded. Moreover, when Ye Mushixi initiated their chats later on, she never mentioned the messages that Su Junqian had sent proactively. It was as if Ye Mushixi had never received the messages that Su Junqian had sent proactively.
Su Junqian was saddened by this but also understood Ye Mushixi’s perspective. After all, as a somewhat famous actress, Ye Mushixi lived in a completely different world from his own. Therefore, when interacting with him, she would definitely be extremely cautious and always on guard against any potential negative impacts on herself.
Thus, Su Junqian had warned himself on more than one occasion not to harbor too many unrealistic fantasies about Ye Mushixi. He should treat this actress, who seemed like a fairy descended from heaven, with a normal heart. As for other matters, it would be better to leave them all up to fate to decide.
Now, the most important thing for Su Junqian was to fully enjoy the feeling of having a beautiful companion. Moreover, he did his utmost to ensure that Ye Mushixi could obtain the emotional value that would make her happy during their interactions.
Under Su Junqian’s careful cultivation, Ye Mushixi seemed to gradually认可 his character. She took the initiative to come out and have meals and chat with Su Junqian several times during her breaks from filming. There was even an occasion when Ye Mushixi invited Su Junqian to the crew to act as an extra, allowing Su Junqian to truly experience the thrill of being an actor.
Of course, unlike other extras, Su Junqian not only had to act for free but also had to take the initiative to pay for Ye Mushixi’s meals during his free time on the set.
But so what?
For Su Junqian, meeting Ye Mushixi and accompanying her for meals was the best reward for him. This series of events made Su Junqian once again deeply feel that the distance between the two of them was quietly closing. The desire to break through the barriers of class and win the beauty’s heart became increasingly strong.
However, soon after, Su Junqian was hit with a sudden blow, causing him to question the feelings between the two of them.
One evening, after just finishing writing some code, Su Junqian was about to open his phone to watch some short videos. As a result, as soon as he turned on his phone, he received a message from Ye Mushixi: "Hey! What are you doing?"
"I just finished writing the code. Have you finished filming?" Su Junqian replied with a smile on his face.
"Don’t even mention it! The director wasn’t satisfied with the previous few scenes, so tonight we have to stay up late and reshoot all of them! Alas! It seems we have to work through the night tonight! This is so annoying!" Ye Mushixi complained.
"Well, that’s really hard for you! But it’s not entirely the director’s fault. He’s doing this in the hope that the web drama will be filmed more perfectly. In this way, won’t you be able to take it to the next level and get one step closer to your dream of becoming a top-tier actress?" Su Junqian comforted her.
"Although what you say makes sense, I still feel very annoyed! So, since you know I’m working late and it’s hard for me, hurry up and come over to accompany me for a late-night snack!" Ye Mushixi still used a commanding tone to ask Su Junqian to treat her to a meal, and Su Junqian agreed to her request without hesitation.
So, Su Junqian immediately got dressed and drove to the location where Ye Mushixi was filming.
The location for Ye Mushixi’s filming this time was a famous indoor amusement park in the area. Since the amusement park was open to the public during the day and the rental fee for this amusement park was very expensive, the crew could only use the limited few nights to quickly finish shooting all the scenes involving the amusement park.
It was also for this reason that Ye Mushixi actually couldn’t go out to eat with Su Junqian tonight. So, Su Junqian had specially bought all the late-night snacks that Ye Mushixi had specified on his way there, preparing to enjoy a delicious meal with her during the break.
Under the guidance of Ye Mushixi’s assistant, Su Junqian quickly met Ye Mushixi, who was waiting for her turn to perform. At this moment, Ye Mushixi was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, dressed in a proper set of work clothes, and had her hair tied in a neat ponytail, looking both energetic and possessing a fascinating intellectual beauty. Upon first seeing Ye Mushixi, Su Junqian was deeply attracted by her stunning beauty and elegant temperament, to the point of forgetting to greet her.
"Hey! Can you not drool all over the place every time you see me? You’re being really creepy!" Ye Mushixi waved her hand in front of Su Junqian and pretended to be angry as she scolded him.
"I’m so, so sorry. You’re just too beautiful! I’m so, so sorry! I didn’t mean to offend you! Here’s your late-night snack." Su Junqian realized his misconduct and hurriedly apologized in a stammering manner.
"Forget it! Even the most beautiful girl gets hungry! Let’s go! Accompany me to eat something over there! Otherwise, I’ll have to film on an empty stomach later!" Ye Mushixi snatched the late-night snack from Su Junqian’s hand, and as she spoke, she walked towards the outside of the resting area.
"Aren’t we going to eat in the resting area?" Su Junqian hurriedly followed and asked upon seeing this.
"Oh my! There are so many people there. If a beauty like me eats with you in front of so many people, there will definitely be gossip!" Ye Mushixi said.
Su Junqian thought it made sense. Given Ye Mushixi’s current popularity, her every move would be under the attention of the crew members. Therefore, her act of publicly receiving a visit from a strange man in the middle of the night and dining with him alone would inevitably cause a sensation on the set.
Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.
From the current situation, it seemed that Ye Mushixi didn’t really care about how others viewed her being alone with Su Junqian. But even so, Ye Mushixi couldn’t be too blatant. After all, unscrupulous individuals might take advantage of this rumor to create negative publicity against her.
Although Ye Mushixi repeatedly stated that she was very tired from filming today, she still looked full of energy at this moment. Perhaps it was because Ye Mushixi could unreservedly vent to Su Junqian, allowing her tense mood to be relieved. So, Ye Mushixi decided to let Su Junqian accompany her while she ate her late-night snack and took a walk in the vast indoor amusement park.
Wandering in the amusement park at night undoubtedly provided an excellent atmosphere for the warming of emotions between a man and a woman. Therefore, Su Junqian was naturally willing to keep the beauty company.
But during this process, Su Junqian, still adhering to the principle of not affecting Ye Mushixi’s work, asked with some concern, "Muxi, we’re leaving the set too far. What if you don’t receive the message from the production staff later?"
"Are you stupid? We’re not running off to outer space, and our phones still have signal. The production staff can just contact me via text message, right?" Ye Mushixi gave Su Junqian a look as if he were an idiot.
"I’m talking about you! Why do you seem so clever online, but your IQ plummets when we meet in person?" Ye Mushixi continued to tease him.
Su Junqian wanted to say that it was because when chatting online, he couldn’t see her, so he could speak more freely. But once they met in person, seeing such a stunning beauty like her would leave his mind completely blank under the assault of her beauty. At this moment, all his thoughts were focused on admiring her looks and savoring every second spent with her.
However, how could the usually timid Su Junqian say such sweet words in front of Ye Mushixi? So, facing Ye Mushixi’s questioning, he could only innocently grin with his mouth open.
Sometimes, silence speaks louder than words. For example, right now, even though Su Junqian didn’t respond, Ye Mushixi seemed to have guessed his thoughts. This left Ye Mushixi speechless for a moment, and she could only fall into deep thought.
But soon, Ye Mushixi was the first to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere: "Anyway, there’s still some time before my scene, so you don’t have to worry about me being late. Moreover, I really want to take this opportunity to walk around the amusement park."
"You know, I’ve actually loved going to amusement parks since I was a child. But because of my busy work schedule, I hardly have any time to go to amusement parks now!"
As the two chatted and strolled through the amusement park, they unconsciously arrived in front of a haunted house. Since the amusement park had closed, the door of the haunted house was naturally closed and they couldn’t go in. So, they could only stand outside the haunted house and, based on the promotional posters outside, imagine what kind of thrilling experiences they would have inside.
Just as the two were fully using their imagination to fantasize about how terrifying this haunted house was, the ghost doll placed at the entrance of the haunted house, used to attract customers, suddenly let out a ghostly cry and shook back and forth.
In fact, the sudden movement of this ghost doll was not due to any supernatural phenomenon. It was because the staff member in charge of the haunted house made a work mistake.
The amusement park, in order to cooperate with the crew’s filming, did not cut off the power supply of the entire amusement park. This led to the staff member on duty tonight forgetting to turn off the power supply controlling this ghost doll separately. As a result, the ghost doll still followed the program instructions, jumping up unexpectedly and using its terrifying appearance to attract customers to the haunted house.
Although this was an accident caused by human work error, Su Junqian and Ye Mushixi, who were completely unaware of it, were naturally frightened. Especially Ye Mushixi. She, who was just talking about how many haunted houses she had been to, was scared into screaming and sitting on the ground the next second.
Although Su Junqian was also frightened at the first moment, he was not really afraid of these things. So, he just shouted when the ghost doll was activated, and then quickly came to his senses. Immediately, Su Junqian hurriedly reached out to help Ye Mushixi, who was sitting on the ground, and immediately held her to prevent her from being further frightened.
Su Junqian’s action to protect Ye Mushixi at this moment was naturally not a problem. Moreover, in his view, the two of them were now in an ambiguous state. Even if such close contact happened suddenly, it was reasonable. More than that, their relationship might become closer thanks to the mischief of this ghost doll.
However, Su Junqian was wrong. Although Ye Mushixi was frightened by the ghost doll, when she realized that her arm was being held by Su Junqian and that he was about to embrace her, she immediately pushed him away with force. Then, Ye Mushixi turned around and slapped Su Junqian hard.
"Don’t touch me! I can stand up by myself!" Ye Mushixi roared angrily, the anger in her eyes seeming to burn Su Junqian to ashes immediately.
Su Junqian obviously didn’t expect Ye Mushixi’s reaction to be so strong. So, after being slapped by Ye Mushixi, Su Junqian stood there stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"I, I was just——" Su Junqian stammered, trying to explain.
But before he could finish his sentence, Ye Mushixi interrupted him with a tone full of disgust: "I said! Don't touch me! I can stand up by myself!"
Su Junqian looked at Ye Mushixi's cold, frost-like face and was speechless, not knowing what to say. He was confused and couldn't understand why Ye Mushixi would react so strongly to his actions. Weren't they friends of the opposite sex on the verge of ambiguity? Could it be that there was no such thing as a thin veil between them that could be pierced with a single touch? Did he overthink it?
Thinking of this, Su Junqian immediately calmed down. He thought again about the gap between himself and Ye Mushixi. It was a gap that he could never cross!
A sense of unspeakable inferiority welled up in Su Junqian's heart again. He felt like a clown, mistakenly interpreting Ye Mushixi's attitude towards him as a love that he could reach out to!
At this moment, Su Junqian's psychological defense was completely shattered. He just stood there stupidly, watching Ye Mushixi turn around and leave angrily.
Perhaps because their screams just now were too loud, or maybe Ye Mushixi's assistant had been following them all along. As soon as Ye Mushixi was about to leave, her assistant appeared in time with two staff members. As soon as the two staff members appeared, they chased after Ye Mushixi.
Ye Mushixi's assistant walked up to Su Junqian, who was standing there in a daze, and signaled him to leave with her immediately. Su Junqian, who was already stunned, nodded dejectedly. Because he knew that Ye Mushixi's reaction said it all. Now, he should wake up and stop daydreaming about the beautiful visions that he couldn't reach.
Su Junqian returned home listlessly, and a deep sense of frustration came rushing in like a tide, making him toss and turn and unable to sleep at night. For several days in a row, he was immersed in a state of loss and couldn't extricate himself. This series of blows was so severe that Su Junqian's work was affected. As a result, he not only failed to complete the client's commission on time but also lost an important client, making all his efforts in vain.
Time flew by, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Su Junqian did not receive any more messages from Ye Mushixi.
Maybe, after what happened last time, Ye Mushixi would no longer contact him?
Humph! Don't be self-delusional! Why would she contact you? She just regards you as an ordinary friend! You crossed the line, and yet you still have the nerve to expect her to contact you again? Wake up! That's Ye Mushixi! You should just live your own life and stop harboring unrealistic daydreams!
Su Junqian thought to himself with self-mockery, in order to quickly eliminate these far-fetched thoughts and get his life back on track. As it turned out, Su Junqian's self-psychological repair was effective. After realizing the reality, his mood improved quickly, and he returned to his work.
However, it seemed that God liked to tease Su Junqian. Just a few days after his life had just returned to normal, he received a text message from Ye Mushixi again.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Ye Mushixi asked.
"You—, do you need something from me?" Su Junqian replied, very puzzled.
"Of course! If there's nothing, why would I contact you?" Ye Mushixi said.
"What's the matter?" Su Junqian asked.
"I'm going to an art exhibition tomorrow, and I want you to accompany me!" Ye Mushixi said.
"Why?" Su Junqian was very confused.
"Where are there so many whys? I just want you to accompany me to the art exhibition! Is that not allowed?" Ye Mushixi replied in her usual domineering tone.
"I say, miss, are you mistaken? Have you forgotten how you scolded me that day?" Su Junqian didn't really want to entangle with Ye Mushixi, but he also didn't want to outright reject her. So he asked.
"Hey? Didn't I just slap you and scold you a few times? You're not really that petty, are you? I was just in a bad mood at the time and took it out on you." Ye Mushixi replied.
Well. Seeing this message from Ye Mushixi, Su Junqian immediately fell into a dilemma. Su Junqian once learned from an entertainment gossip video that some actors, in order to understand the psychology of their roles, would sometimes experience emotional fluctuations or drastic changes in reality due to being too deeply immersed in their roles.
Could it be that this kind of post-dramatic stress disorder really exists? Could it be that Ye Mushixi is also troubled by this post-dramatic stress disorder?
Su Junqian couldn't help but associate that although Ye Mushixi has top-notch looks, she is a truly talented actress. Moreover, on that night, after the incident, Ye Mushixi's assistant just took him away from the scene in the first place and did not help Ye Mushixi blame him. Could this also indicate that the assistant was very clear about Ye Mushixi's condition at the time? That's why she didn't confront him on the spot out of the purpose of protecting her own artist?
Su Junqian felt that his analysis made sense. If not, how could Ye Mushixi contact him again as if nothing had happened?
So, Su Junqian, whose psychology seemed to have some kind of movement again, replied: "Alright! Then I'll accompany you again, even at the risk of my life! But we have to make it clear beforehand! You can't just lose your temper with me for no reason again!"
"Okay, okay, okay! I know! I really didn't expect you to be so petty! Being scolded by this lady is your blessing! You know, many men would be grateful if they could get a few slaps from this lady!" Ye Mushixi grumbled.
"Remember, we'll meet at 9 a.m. sharp! Don't be late!" Ye Mushixi added a word of instruction, then sent the location for tomorrow's meeting to Su Junqian, and then ignored the other questions Su Junqian sent.
Although he didn't want to, but the one inviting him was Ye Mushixi! Even though Su Junqian had already figured out that there was no possibility between them, how could he be willing to waste the opportunity to see Ye Mushixi again?
So the next day, Su Junqian arrived at the entrance of the exhibition hall early and waited for Ye Mushixi with anticipation.
Ye Mushixi appeared at the entrance of the exhibition hall on time, dressed in casual clothes. She looked very happy today, and her vibrant face looked even more beautiful in the sunlight.
As soon as Ye Mushixi saw Su Junqian, she immediately ran over, bouncing and jumping: "Let's go! I heard that most of the artworks on display today are rare cultural relics that are on tour around the world. If we miss this exhibition, we won't know when we'll have the chance to see such valuable artworks again!"
Since it was the first day of the exhibition, there was a constant stream of visitors. Coupled with the popularity of Ye Mushixi's recent short drama, her recognition had increased further. As a result, not long after she entered the exhibition hall, she was recognized by many visitors, who all came up to ask for her autograph and requested to take photos together.
So, Su Junqian had to become a guardian, helping Ye Mushixi's assistant maintain order and prevent fans from making unfriendly moves towards Ye Mushixi.
As more and more fans gathered, Ye Mushixi also showed her dependence on Su Junqian and began to whisper to him constantly. For a while, Ye Mushixi's intimate actions towards Su Junqian not only made others envious but also immediately made Su Junqian the target of the fans' jealousy.
Su Junqian understood that Ye Mushixi's closeness to him was likely because too many people were paying attention to her on the scene, and she wanted to use this to alleviate her uneasy emotions. So, he naturally went along with Ye Mushixi's act at this time. In this way, it could also prevent those men who wanted to take advantage of the crowd to make indecent moves towards Ye Mushixi from acting recklessly.
Because the commotion caused by Ye Mushixi in the exhibition hall was really too great, the assistant decided to end the visit and let Ye Mushixi leave as soon as possible. So, Su Junqian continued to act as a guardian, assisting the assistant in separating Ye Mushixi from the surrounding crowd. Then, the two of them, along with the staff who came to maintain order, escorted Ye Mushixi towards the safety exit provided by the staff.
During this process, in order to prevent Ye Mushixi from being grabbed by a fan's clothes, Su Junqian hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Ye Mushixi to his other side.
As a result, as soon as Su Junqian grabbed Ye Mushixi's arm with his hand, Ye Mushixi shook him off with force, then glared at him with a look that seemed to want to devour Su Junqian, and said, "Don't touch me!"
After speaking, Ye Mushixi turned around with a dark face and quickly left the exhibition hall through the safety exit.
Su Junqian felt so bitter inside!
Firstly, because he obviously forgot why Ye Mushixi had been angry with him last time. Secondly, because Su Junqian felt that his touch of Ye Mushixi this time was also to protect her.
So, after Ye Mushixi resisted and shook him off, he felt both wronged and puzzled by Ye Mushixi's malicious gaze. For a moment, he stood there in a daze. Fortunately, the assistant reminded him in time, and Su Junqian came back to his senses, blushing as he walked out of the exhibition hall.
After the three of them walked out of the exhibition hall through the safety door, they entered a small square located behind the exhibition hall. Since this area is for staff only and not open to the public, the three of them successfully got rid of the fans' siege as soon as they entered.
After making sure her personal safety was secured, Ye Mushixi sighed and walked to the side of the pool in the center of the square to sit down. Su Junqian stood there very awkwardly, feeling extremely uncomfortable inside.
Although Su Junqian still didn't dare to have any delusion about Ye Mushixi, the interactions over the past few days had quietly made him develop feelings for her, and he couldn't help but look forward to their future. Especially this time, Su Junqian had thought that after their disagreement last time, Ye Mushixi took the initiative to contact him, and their relationship could be taken a step further.
But to Su Junqian's disappointment, Ye Mushixi still showed extreme aversion and disgust towards his physical contact. Moreover, Su Junqian's touch of Ye Mushixi's body this time was also for the purpose of protecting her. As a result, Ye Mushixi not only didn't appreciate it but even scolded him in public. Such an outcome undoubtedly deepened Su Junqian's sense of frustration and made him feel very wronged.
Su Junqian was hesitating about whether he should leave first when Ye Mushixi suddenly said in an extremely gentle tone: "Junqian, are you okay? Thank you so much just now! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know how to get out of the situation!"
Then, Ye Mushixi took the initiative to walk over and pulled Su Junqian's collar. After that, she continued to ask him to accompany her for a walk behind the small square as if nothing had happened just now.
Since the several staff members who assisted Ye Mushixi in leaving the exhibition hall were her fans themselves, after they each got Ye Mushixi's autograph and photo, they enthusiastically told her that there were many artworks that were not on public display yet behind the small square. At the same time, they allowed Ye Mushixi to go there for a walk and let her decide whether to stay and continue visiting the exhibition after the crowd in the exhibition hall decreased.
There's no way, Ye Mushixi has an irresistible charm that she was born with. As a result, although Su Junqian felt a bit uncomfortable inside, he still gladly accepted Ye Mushixi's invitation. So, the two of them started to tour behind the small square in the drizzle.
There were many outdoor artworks that had just been organized here, and the two of them enjoyed watching them very much, and they chatted again without holding grudges. Ye Mushixi's mood also gradually improved, and when she saw an artwork made of transparent glass, like a wall, she couldn't help but reach out to touch the patterns carved on the glass wall.
Su Junqian stood quietly on the other side of the glass wall, gazing at Ye Mushixi, who was standing gracefully on the opposite side, through the glass that was blurred by the light rain. Although from this angle, Ye Mushixi's appearance was very blurry, this blurry perspective added an ethereal beauty to Ye Mushixi's beauty, as if she was not of this world.
While analyzing the artist's creative intentions according to his own understanding, Su Junqian also reached out and touched the patterns on the wall from the other side. Unconsciously, his palm moved to the back of the pattern that Ye Mushixi's palm was touching during his explanation. In this way, it was as if the palms of the two were placed in the same position, separated by this transparent glass wall.
Su Junqian was afraid of causing Ye Mushixi's displeasure and was about to move his palm away. However, he found that Ye Mushixi seemed to be lost in his explanation and did not react to the fact that their two palms were overlapping through the glass. So, Su Junqian, not knowing where he got the courage, continued to explain his understanding of this artwork while maintaining the overlapping posture of his palm with Ye Mushixi's.
Although there was a layer of glass in between, Su Junqian felt as if he could penetrate this glass wall and, through the overlapping palm with Ye Mushixi, have some kind of resonance with Ye Mushixi's soul. It was a very wonderful way of communication. Su Junqian couldn't help but feel a wonderful sensation that even though he was separated from Ye Mushixi, he could exchange feelings with her through the air.
From Su Junqian's perspective, although Ye Mushixi's expression was still indifferent, a hint of redness also appeared on her moist cheeks. Moreover, Ye Mushixi began to constantly move her snowy white neck, as if she was trying to suppress some kind of palpitation in her heart.
Could it be that she also has a crush on me? Su Junqian couldn't help but ask himself in his heart.
But thinking of Ye Mushixi's strong resistance to his touch of her arm, Su Junqian backed down again. In the end, Su Junqian decided to pretend that nothing had happened and took the lead in moving his palm away, preparing to visit the next artwork.
But as soon as Su Junqian was about to leave, he saw Ye Mushixi also withdrew her palm.
Then, Ye Mushixi shook her palm while looking pitiful and said, "Oh! The water droplets on this glass wall are so cold!"
Hearing this, Su Junqian looked at his right hand, which was also covered with rain, and said, "Yes, and this glass wall is so dirty! My hand is dirtied by it."
As Su Junqian spoke, he took out a tissue to wipe his palm clean, then walked up to Ye Mushixi and handed her a tissue, signaling her to wipe the rain off her hand as well. However, Ye Mushixi just stood there with her wet palm open, showing no intention of taking the tissue.
Seeing this, Su Junqian immediately helped her wipe her palm without thinking. But as soon as Su Junqian wiped it, he immediately realized that he was holding her palm in order to help her wipe it. Su Junqian hurriedly withdrew his hands and looked at Ye Mushixi timidly, his mind filled with the scene of Ye Mushixi glaring at him.
To Su Junqian's surprise, Ye Mushixi did not resist at all this time.
Ye Mushixi bit her red lips and said in a rather displeased tone, "Hey! Junqian! Why did you stop wiping halfway? Didn't you see that my hand is still wet?"
As Ye Mushixi spoke, she stretched her palm in front of Su Junqian again.
Hearing Ye Mushixi say this, Su Junqian felt as if he had been injected with a stimulant, and a warm current of electricity surged in his heart. So, Su Junqian no longer hesitated, but quickly held Ye Mushixi's left hand, feeling the warmth coming from her hand while wiping the coldness from her palm.
Su Junqian carefully wiped Ye Mushixi’s palm, and then reluctantly let her go.
To Su Junqian’s surprise, Ye Mushixi once again presented her palm in front of him and said displeasedly, “Hey! Can’t you check if you’ve wiped it clean? Why are you so sloppy in what you do?”
At this moment, Su Junqian was at a loss for words and could only smile foolishly as he held Ye Mushixi’s palm again and began to caress it carefully. It had to be said that the palm of a beauty was also extremely beautiful. After feeling the delicate skin of Ye Mushixi, Su Junqian’s palm seemed to be forcibly adsorbed onto Ye Mushixi’s palm by some force, and he could no longer leave this tender and soft silk.
“Hey! Have you had enough of touching?” Just as Su Junqian was lost in the gentle touch of Ye Mushixi’s palm, Ye Mushixi suddenly asked him with a tone that was both angry and amused.
Su Junqian then came to his senses as if from a dream and realized how impolite his actions had been just now.
So he quickly withdrew his hands and said awkwardly, “I’m s-sorry! I just——”
But before Su Junqian could finish his sentence, Ye Mushixi interrupted him, “Alright! Alright! It’s starting to rain heavily! Let’s hurry over there to take shelter!”
Then, Ye Mushixi grabbed Su Junqian’s palm that he was about to withdraw and turned around with a blushing face, walking towards the nearby corridor.
At this moment, Su Junqian’s heart was pounding as if it was about to burst out of his chest. He felt that Ye Mushixi’s palm was like a docile little bird, nestled in the palm of his hand.
Su Junqian was overjoyed and a bit at a loss. He could only follow Ye Mushixi foolishly, feeling that his whole world was wrapped in sweet happiness.
Su Junqian and Ye Mushixi sat hand in hand in the corridor, and for a while, no one spoke. The two of them just quietly watched the pouring rain outside, feeling the warmth transmitted through each other’s palms.
The heavy rain stopped abruptly after about ten minutes, and Ye Mushixi, who had been silent for a long time, finally let out a soft sigh and turned to look at Su Junqian, who was admiring her delicate profile, “Junqian, it’s about time. I should leave.”
After speaking, Ye Mushixi withdrew her left hand that was held by Su Junqian, stood up, and began to tidy up her clothes.
Su Junqian let go of Ye Mushixi and asked reluctantly, “What? Do you have another appointment to rush to?”
“Hmm.” Ye Mushixi simply responded with a word, then turned around and walked directly towards her assistant who had been waiting nearby.
Seeing this, the assistant immediately handed a prepared picture frame to Ye Mushixi.
Then, Ye Mushixi returned to Su Junqian’s side again, handed him the frame, and said softly, “Here, this is a gift from me.”
“What is this——” Su Junqian took the frame and asked, somewhat puzzled.
“This is——, uh——, just take it as a memento!” Ye Mushixi said softly again, with a very professional smile on her face.
Su Junqian looked at the picture frame in his hand in confusion and found that what was embedded in it was not a photo, but a plaque similar to a medal. The plaque not only had Ye Mushixi’s autograph, but also prominently displayed the four characters “Absurd Passerby” in the center.
Below these four characters, there were also several lines of smaller text, including the names of the program’s Co-production Partner such as Xingpu Entertainment Platform and Yuezhong Media, “First Episode Celebrity Guest Ye Mushixi; First Episode Extra Guest Su Junqian; Special Commemoration,” and so on.
“Muxi, what is this thing?” Su Junqian, who still hadn’t figured out what was going on, asked again.
Ye Mushixi just smiled apologetically at him and then said in a gentle and somewhat reluctant tone, “Goodbye, Junqian. My assistant will explain everything to you.”
After speaking, Ye Mushixi left quickly without looking back.
Seeing this, Su Junqian wanted to chase after her to ask what was going on, but he was immediately stopped by Ye Mushixi’s assistant and the staff who appeared again.
“Junqian! Calm down first and listen to my explanation! Muxi didn’t want to deceive you!” The assistant, seeing that Su Junqian’s emotions had become very agitated, hurriedly persuaded him in a soft voice.
“What’s going on here! Is Muxi really leaving me?” Su Junqian watched as Ye Mushixi walked into the office building behind the small square and asked with great emotion.
Then, the assistant told Su Junqian the whole story.
It turned out that as a rising star in web dramas, Ye Mushixi had the idea of moving to a bigger stage. But unfortunately, she had signed a sky-high breach of contract with the entertainment company, which made her unable to leave her current company and sign with other large entertainment companies.
Fortunately, the entertainment company, seeing that Ye Mushixi didn’t want to make things difficult, decided after negotiation to fully exploit her commercial value within a certain period. After the company had made enough profits, they would agree to terminate the contract and let her go. For this reason, in addition to normally filming web dramas, Ye Mushixi decided to increase her personal exposure in order to quickly make more profits for the company while the heat was still there.
So, the company decided to record all of Ye Mushixi’s daily life with hidden cameras. Then, the company would edit these materials into a program similar to a reality show and promote it on the Internet, allowing more web drama fans to get closer to Ye Mushixi’s personal life, better understand her, and like her, so that more merchants would come to seek business cooperation.
By a lucky chance, on the second day of this program’s filming, Ye Mushixi encountered Su Junqian’s clumsy pick-up in the store. But it was precisely because of Su Junqian’s clumsy pick-up that the production team saw his difference from other pick-up artists. So, the production team temporarily decided to change the script and let Ye Mushixi interact with him in a more real way, keeping the truth hidden from Su Junqian.
But the production team didn’t expect that during the filming of the program, Ye Mushixi actually developed a real feeling for Su Junqian. Therefore, in order not to affect the subsequent filming and to maintain Ye Mushixi’s single image and protect her commercial value, the production team once again temporarily decided to end this interactive story today.
Then, the production team would package the video of the two’s interaction during this period into a special interactive feature, similar to a fan welfare nature, and present it to the audience in the future.
Of course, to ensure the smooth broadcast of this program, the production team must first obtain Su Junqian’s consent. So, after explaining the whole story in detail and apologizing to Su Junqian repeatedly, Ye Mushixi’s assistant handed Su Junqian an image authorization contract that the production team had prepared in advance.
The content of the contract was basically that the production team hoped Su Junqian would authorize his right of portrait to them so that this special program could be broadcast normally. For this, the production team was willing to provide a total of 50,000 yuan in compensation to buy out Su Junqian’s right of portrait in this program.
After listening to the assistant’s explanation, Su Junqian was speechless for a long time. Because he couldn’t imagine that during these days, he had actually been exposed under other people’s cameras. This absurd matter made his mind extremely confused, and he didn’t know what to do for a while.
However, while Su Junqian was angry about being deceived by Ye Mushixi and the production team, he was also filled with mixed feelings. He now understood why Ye Mushixi had been so resistant to physical contact with him at the beginning. Because at the beginning, Ye Mushixi was just acting with him and didn’t want him to take advantage of her.
Later, Ye Mushixi developed real feelings for him, and because of the guilt of continuing to deceive him and her hesitancy to confront these feelings, she deliberately showed a strong aversion to physical contact with him.
So, when Muxi took the initiative to hold hands with me at the end, it must have been out of true feelings! The warmth I felt when holding hands with Muxi was not a self-deceptive illusion, but her true feelings!
Thinking of this, Su Junqian couldn’t help but show a smile that was both happy and a bit bitter, “Assistant Wang, can I still meet Muxi in the future?”
"No," the assistant responded in a firm tone.
Then, Assistant Wang said, “Junqian! You also know that Muxi has a boundless future. So, you don’t want to hold her back, do you? Moreover, you are just an ordinary person. Muxi will sooner or later become one of the most dazzling stars under the spotlight. The gap between you two is really too big! Even if you are together now, you will be strangers in the future under the heavy blow of reality and in unimaginable pain.”
Su Junqian sighed helplessly, acknowledging that Assistant Wang was right. Given the huge disparity in strength and status between the two, especially when Muxi was about to enter a period of career growth, even if the two insisted on being together, what results could they get?
Instead of planting a huge hidden danger of great pain for the future, it’s better to give up early. In this way, he could also be said to have played a role in promoting Muxi’s upward development. He could also leave behind a beautiful and absurd emotional experience. More importantly, he could also gain a substantial bonus for no reason.
Thinking of these, Su Junqian couldn’t help but smile at himself and readily agreed to sign the contract.
The weather in the afternoon was still very gloomy, and it seemed that a heavy rain could fall at any time. Su Junqian sat in the coffee shop with a dejected look, recalling the thrilling beauty of holding hands with Muxi in the morning, and looking at the bank card with 50,000 yuan in cash that he had just received. Su Junqian couldn’t help but smile with a complicated mood.
“Ding.”
At this moment, Su Junqian’s mobile phone suddenly rang. He opened the chat software and saw a text message that had just been received. The message was from the goddess whom Su Junqian had liked for a long time but had always been纠结 about whether to break the last layer of the window.
After receiving the message, Su Junqian hurriedly replied, “Hahaha! What time is it now? Why did you just think of replying to my message?”
“Hahaha! I was watching Ye Mushixi’s web drama last night, and I watched it until this morning before going to sleep. I just got up and immediately replied to your message!” The girl on the other side replied.
“Hey! Is her web drama really that good to watch?” Su Junqian asked.
“Of course! The web drama that Muxi acts in is really good! Moreover, she is really too beautiful! Hahaha!” The girl on the other side replied.
“Hahaha! I think that no matter how beautiful she is, she is not as beautiful as you are, even by a tenth!” Su Junqian flattered.
“Humph! Men’s words are deceitful! You always say that others are beautiful, but I haven’t seen you take the initiative to treat them to a meal!” The girl on the other side replied in a coquettish tone.
“Hey! How do I not want to treat you to a meal? In fact, I can’t wait to have meals with you every day!” Su Junqian continued to ingratiate himself.
“Humph! Really? Alas! I slept until the afternoon, and I’m really hungry now!” The girl replied in a delicate voice.
“What do you want to eat? I’ll take you there right away, okay?” Su Junqian immediately asked.
“Well! Then——, let’s go eat barbecue together! I haven’t eaten barbecue for a long time!” The girl suggested.
“Okay! Then hurry up and get ready, and I’ll come to pick you up right away!” Su Junqian said.
“By the way, do you want to go to the indoor amusement park in Lejie to play?” Su Junqian continued to ask.
“Okay! But why do you suddenly want to go to the amusement park? I was planning to go home and continue watching Muxi’s web drama after having dinner!” The girl said.
“Hey! When can’t you watch the web drama? Besides, after eating so much barbecue, shouldn’t we do some activities to digest the food?” Su Junqian asked.
“Well, what you say seems to make a bit of sense. Then okay! I’ll see your performance later, and then decide whether to go to the amusement park with you! Hahaha!” The girl thought for a while and replied.
“Hey! Rest assured! Today’s arrangements will definitely satisfy you!” Su Junqian said.
“Okay! Then let’s talk when we meet later! I’m actually a bit looking forward to it now! Hahaha!” The girl replied.
Su Junqian put away his mobile phone and sighed forcefully to calm his somewhat excited mood. He couldn’t wait to walk out of the coffee shop, bought 999 roses at the neighboring flower shop, and then drove towards the girl’s house under the envious and blessing gazes of passers-by.
（The End）
