I Joined to Write Fanfiction about Us (1)

Bai Qi and the rest just arrived home when they received a call from Shang Guang.

Papa Bai rolled up his sleeves and began cooking.

Next to him, the radio was playing ‘The East is Red.’ He sang along for a bit before Su Meixian threw a distasteful glance at him that made him shut up.

After Xi Chengyun washed his hands, Bai Qi passed his phone to him while he continued to switch between the TV channels without looking up.

“Xi-ge, you have a call.”

“Mn.” Xi Chengyun took the phone over and answered the call.

“Xi-ge...” Anxiousness could be heard in Shang Guang’s voice.

“Mn, what’s up”

Shang Guang calmed down when he heard Xi Chengyun’s calm voice.

He forgot about all he was about to say and spurted, “Can you look at the news”

“Alright,” Xi Chengyun replied.

And he temporarily hung up the phone.

“Do we have a new job offer” Bai Qi asked.

“Nope.” Then, Xi Chengyun opened a new tab on his browser and soon found out what had happened.

Bai Qi didn’t know what was happening.

He switched to his desired channel and then scourged around for a packet of melon seeds and sweets.

“Xi-ge, do you eat your seeds with salt or sugar”

Xi Chengyun didn’t look up as he answered, “Anything’s fine.”

There was no change in his expression when he sent a reply to Shang Guang.

Xi Chengyun: 【Don’t we already have the results from our lawsuit with the people who scolded Bai Qi in his DMs】

Xi Chengyun: 【Post a picture of the verdict through the studio’s Weibo account】

Shang Guang: 【Then, what should I do next】

Xi Chengyun: 【Then, I’ll be going to the movies with Bai Qi】

Shang Guang: 【...】

Shang Guang was worried for nothing.

Xi Chengyun has a clean record, but ever since he got into a contractual marriage with Bai Qi, Shang Guang regularly worried about Xi Chengyun’s reputation...

His anxiousness made him forget the fact this was nothing unusual in the entertainment industry.

Shang Guang mumbled, “Alright, I’ll go watch my dramas now.”

The gala of his chosen channel hasn’t started yet.

So, Bai Qi replayed Xi Chengyun’s appearance in the other gala from two days ago.

The two of them sat together and munched on melon seeds.

His anti-fans would be speechless if they could see them right now.

Bai Qi ate for around 10 minutes before he stuck his tongue out and said, “It’s a little salty.”

Xi Chengyun looked down and saw a small lump of undissolved salt on his tongue.

Xi Chengyun also noticed the pinkness of his tongue.

This made his mind short-circuited.

Crack.

The shell of the seed in his hand cracked in half.

Xi Chengyun said in a low voice, “Then you should stop eating that.”

Bai Qi nodded and said, “Mhm, then I’ll have some sweets.” “You want some”

Xi Chengyun didn’t react.

He glanced at the small bowl filled with candies.

“Feed them to me”

Bai Qi wanted to say that his parents weren’t even looking at them.

However, just as he was about to say that out loud, he took it back.

He looked down at Xi Chengyun’s hands and saw that he had nuts in both of his hands.

Bai Qi stood up and went to grab the sweets.

“What would you like”

“Anything’s fine.”

He really wasn’t picky.

Bai Qi smacked his lips and fished out a piece of chocolate.

He took off the wrapping and brought it near Xi Chengyun’s lips.

Xi Chengyun looked down and took it into his mouth with a bite.

When he bit on the chocolate, his bottom lip touched Bai Qi’s finger.

He noticed the pinkness of the tips of Bai Qi’s fingers.

Beautifully shaped lunula and neatly cut nails met the eye.

Bai Qi’s hands were absolutely beautiful.

Bai Qi suddenly pulled his hand away as he turned around and asked, “My hands are kinda cold, aren’t they”

Xi Chengyun bit on the chocolate while he stared at the Bai Qi’s side profile.

The chocolate was covered in maple syrup.

The crystallized maple syrup broke into pieces and a strong milky aroma filled his mouth.

For a moment, he felt like he had Bai Qi between his teeth, as if he was gently chewing on the chocolate and peeling off the outermost layer of the chocolate.

Xi Chengyun mumbled, “It’s not cold.”

“Mhm.”

The atmosphere was awkward.

Bai Qi couldn’t tell what felt off, but something did.

He should’ve been very well-versed in how to converse with Xi Chengyun...

to easily find topics to talk about...

The atmosphere remained that way until Papa Bai shouted, “Here comes the braised pork knuckle! Hurry on now, have some while it’s still hot! Bai Qi, come here and take some.’

Bai Qi hurriedly stood up and said, “Xi-ge, I shall do a taste test for you first.”

Bai Qi was soon at the dining table.

He took a huge bowl and placed a piece of pork knuckle into it.

He then walked back to where Xi Chengyun was.

Xi Chengyun suddenly opened his palms and asked, “Want some”

‘What’s that’

Bai Qi looked down and realized that Xi Chengyun had placed a handful of cracked melon seeds on a piece of tissue.

He’d only experienced something like that when he was very young.

When his mother passed him a handful of patiently cracked pumpkin seeds with roasted nut, he used to look up and allowed himself to be fed like a bird.

Well, that was when he was very young, and that was the first time he’d felt so satisfied and happy.

When he was slightly older, his mother was always busy helping his father out, and gone were the days when she had time to calmly sit down and crack seeds for him.

Bai Qi licked his lips and said, “Eat.”

He traded his pork knuckle with Xi Chengyun for the freshly cracked seeds.
