Chapter 38.2

Gu Xi had never made a fansite before. However, after studying how to make one, he began to apply for an account. At the same time, he also made two dummy accounts to join the fansite. He only made two for now and planned to wait for more people to add later.

Since Rong Jing’s reputation wasn’t very good before, it’s best that I personally review each of the fans in the future to prevent fake fans and haters from mixing in.

Although Gu Xi has never done it before, he can simply learn how to.

Before, if there was something that he couldn’t understand, just like his previous agent told him, he simply needed to start like a beginner. What Gu Xi did was to occasionally ask his peers who were more knowledgeable.

His own fansite masters contacted him, seemingly worried about the video that he posted. However, this time, Gu Xi did not reply. He checked his main account on Weibo and found that the bottom area of his post had already been filled with comments.

On the other hand, Rong Jing had just arrived at Xie’s office and was having a conversation with his brother.

This time, both sides had the sincerity of signing the contract for FUN. The moment Rong Jing signed the contract, he looked up to check the weather. When he entered the office, the sky was still clear. But all of sudden, dark clouds showed, as if indicating that a thunderstorm was coming.

He was going against the heavens, the weather would indeed change because of that.

“Nah, it’s not a big deal. If you want to sign it, go. But don’t come crawling back to me now if it fails, alright? Xiao Ling told me that he invested in a black hole. This uncle of yours also wants to see if you really are one.”

Wu Hanqi’s car happened to pass by the Xie office building. He pointed casually and asked the driver to stop by the side of the road. He closed his eyes. “I still have four hours before I need to board the plane. Can Xiao Jing send your uncle off instead of your father?”

With the 20-year old friendship between the Wu and Xie family, it was normal for them to do and ask things like this.

The Wu family has always given face to the Xie family, even with the incident where Rong Jing made Huang Jian lose face in a bathroom. The Huang family wanted to do something but Wu Hanqi simply said that it was ‘a fight between children’. After being dismissed like that, the Huang family did not dare confront Wu Hanqi and chose to let the matter go.

As a matter of fact, Xie Ling could patch that problem up by himself, but doing so would cause a little problem because of his position. Now that Wu Hanqi had done it in advance, this was already like owing a favor. Rong Jing went to call him to thank him afterwards, but that didn’t mean that he wanted to get along with the other party.

He thought of a way to refuse, but this old fox was just too cunning. No one knows what he actually has up his sleeve.

“Well, there’s quite a heavy rainstorm. I didn’t bring my umbrella today, it’ll be hard to go out without one. How about the next time I go to Shanghai, I’ll go and visit the Wu family?”

The sky was full of dark clouds, and soon the sound of thunder rang accompanied with heavy rainfall.

Wu Hanqi closed his eyes and smiled, “You said the same thing when I was in Beijing but you didn’t even contact me once. Now, you’re saying that again when you go to Shanghai? It’s not a good habit to break your words. Do you remember that promise you said when you were a kid? You’re going to do ten things for your uncle?”

Ten things?

Rong Jing tried to remember and there really was a memory like that.

When he was little, the original soul tried to bargain with Wu Hanqi, who was always too busy to play with him. He promised to do ten things for him if he stays with him for a day.

Who would have thought that Wu Hanqi really would have a day off that day and spend time with him? It was unexpected though that he would remember and talk about that promise again since he never paid attention to the original soul for the past nine years.

Rong Jing finally found the time to be in the company today, he also had a lot of work to do. The reason he asked for a next time was to dismiss Wu Hanqi’s invitation.

Nah, I’m just kidding. There’s just no way I can casually answer to this old fox’s plans.

As soon as Rong Jing walked out of the office building, he saw a man holding two umbrellas, one used to cover his arms against the wind and rain, wearing a typical cap and mask. With his slender legs crossed, the man quietly watched the intermittent falling of the rain under the eaves, looking like a beautiful painting.

He was simply sitting down, but people who entered the building couldn’t help but look at this person who seemed to have a good figure and temperament.

This time, even without taking the disguise off, Rong Jing already knew who the other person was.

Rong Jing watched as the rain drifted towards the man. He didn’t notice Rong Jing coming out and was genuinely enjoying the rain.

A sentence from the book suddenly crossed his mind: You were looking at the scenery, and the people at the scenery were looking at you.

Behind Rong Jing was Zhou You, who reminded him that the car maintenance was done and that they’ll be able to use the car later. However, he shook his head and said, “I think I’ll be walking home today.”

Zhou You saw the other person who came to deliver an umbrella. He smiled, as if he had understood something. Rong Jing looked at him in disbelief. He wanted to explain that there was nothing between him and Gu Xi. They were just living under the same roof for a few days.

Forget it. Cohabitation itself isn’t simple. The more I explain, the murkier it gets.

Rong Jing walked straight towards the man, “Why did you come here? Is your… is that over now?”

Joy flashed across Gu Xi’s face when he saw the pair of familiar shoes approaching him.

“Are you going back by car today?” Only now did Gu Xi come back to his senses. He seemed to have come in vain, and so he put the umbrella behind him, trying to hide its existence. He didn’t want Rong Jing to see it, pretending that he came just to sit down here for nothing.

“No, I wanna exercise today.”

Gu Xi relaxed his whole body, stood up and stuffed the umbrella into Rong Jing’s hand. It was the indifferent appearance that Rong Jing was familiar with, but in that aloofness, there seemed to be something different.

“En, alright.” Guxi said, seemingly aware of what Rong Jing was going to ask, but he thought it might be a little cold to talk like that so he added, “Join me for lunch? I ordered some take out.”

After setting up the fansite, he made a post on the University’s forum. Though he had skipped a grade before, he knew that it was difficult to become someone famous in the forum. But the university had many hidden talented individuals, and there were many people, ready to become fans of someone. It was good to promote for now.

And just like that, hours had passed applying for his posts to be approved. He thought that it was still sunny outside but when looked out the window, the rain was already pouring. Thinking that Rong Jing must have forgotten to bring an umbrella, without much thought he came out immediately, remembering that he went to the Xie office for the contract signing.

With hidden apprehension, he waited for Rong Jing’s reply. This was the first time that Gu Xi has ever invited an Alpha to have lunch with him.

Of course, Rong Jing had no problem with it. Because of his knowledge from the book, he knew that Gu Xi was doing this simply because he didn’t like owing people.

“Alright.”

Gu Xi laughed when he heard Rong Jing’s simple response. His face was blocked by the mask, so Rong Jing could only see his peach blossom eyes under the brim of his hat.

Rong Jing almost thought that Gu Xi actually wanted him to agree. Well, it’s not good to be too narcissistic.

They took the umbrella silently and walked slowly under the pouring rain. Though no one spoke, no one felt awkward at all. The noise in their ears gradually faded, their senses only focused on the figure on the other side.

Gu Xi watched the rain splashing on wet ground and the raindrops dripping along the umbrella’s bones. His heart itched and he wanted to catch it.

Hold it, please, your image is important. You’re gonna ruin your image.

They passed by a couple talking and laughing together. Their laughter conveyed their happiness.

This time, it seemed like he wasn’t alone.

A sudden gust of wind came, and the wind and rain hit Gu Xi. Though he was wrapped up warmly, he had just finished his heat. Rong Jing frowned hard.

“Let’s share an umbrella.”

Gu Xi was trying to fix his umbrella when he heard those words, stopping his actions.

He didn’t take these umbrellas from the villa. He bought these from a convenience store so they were very cheap and flimsy.

As Rong Jing stood under his umbrella, Gu Xi calmly walked towards him. He blinked. He had already warned himself before. If he becomes too greedy, surely God would take back all the blessings.

At first, he only thought it was too fragrant and wanted to smell it. Later on, when he saw a ‘pancake’ falling from the sky, he felt too reluctant to push it away, so he wanted to take a small bite.

Being greedy is a disease, Gu Xi.

Gu Xi suddenly bowed his head, as if to hide his mood.

I should have just let my umbrella flip up. I should have just let the wind and rain hit me.

I should have rejected him.

But Gu Xi realized that he couldn’t say no, and that the words that he wanted to say were painfully stuck in his throat.

Just then.

A car parked next to the two of them. Its window slid down, revealing Wu Hanqi’s worldly face.

“Xiao Jing, are you off work now?”
