Chapter 14

In my memory, the b!tch Yu Haiqiao seemed to have said those words at the time. Although the words sounded pleasant on the surface, worrying about my safety and security, if you carefully thought about it, wasn’t this b!tch sitting in the passenger seat at the time? The hidden meaning behind his words were definitely–”Are you blind? What if you got me into an accident?” I was a very astute person so I was able to see through all the little schemes he made. Seeing that he had left a considerably big trauma on me, no matter how many times he insisted for me to drive, I have resolved to never hold a steering wheel again. And I carried out this resolve thoroughly. Originally, when I married him, we were supposed to buy two cars but when I thought whether Yu Haiqiao could drive two cars by himself, I logically rejected this proposition.

Up until now, Yu Haiqiao would actually point to my nose and call me an idiot. That was because I had a driver’s license but I couldn’t drive at all. I think he really was indeed tired of living. My old grudges against him arose again and I glared at him fiercely. At this moment, the phone started vibrating joyously in this tense moment and I impatiently answered the call with a frown, “What is it that you want!!”

Yu Haiqiao leaned against the bedside and gave me a puzzled look.

The voice on the other side of the phone sounded slightly amused, “You still have such a bad temper…”

I moved the phone away and took a look at the caller. It was Xiao Chen. The 18th-tier celebrity must be really idle. He even spoke to a girl he barely knew with such a light tone. How annoying. Men really were such strange creatures. I replied irritatedly, “I’m sorry, I’m afraid I’m not close with you at all. Please don’t call me late at night, ok?”

“…” Yu Haiqiao glanced at me again.

The person on my cell phone seemed to be lacking brain cells and chuckled, “I didn’t even send any weird messages, Shi Ran, I’m only sincerely inviting you to come to my concert.”

“No time.” I refused very decisively.

Yu Haiqiao threw me a look before tossing the phone on the bed. He looked at the phone for a while and slowly replied, “Oh, I’ve never heard her mention you.”

I got up and grabbed my phone, coldly and politely spitting out the word “Goodbye” before hanging up.

“…” Yu Haiqiao leaned back against the headboard, crossed his arms in front of his chest. He observed me with scrutinizing eyes.

I snuggled back into the quilt, “The heck are you looking at.”

He reached out and turned my chin to his direction, asking, “Can any 108th-tier star hold concerts now?”

He said while picking up my mobile phone from the bedside and started typing. After a long time, he read out slowly, “Xiao Chen, born in Shancheng, once participated in the variety show “Singing Youth”. He ranked at the top 18, and is now an actor and a singer…” He narrated up until here and tutted, “Is ranking top eighteen something worth showing off? Doesn’t he want to write in his resume that he had passed CET-4 in his freshman year, CET-6¹CET refers to the College English Test. It is a national English as a foreign language test in the People’s Republic of China. It examines the English proficiency of undergraduate and postgraduate students in China. in his sophomore year, finally graduated and got his diploma after 4 years? Oh right, didn’t he have poor grades when he was studying? He probably didn’t even pass his exams. Otherwise, the only explanation left is that someone edited his wikipedia page.“

Yu Haiqiao wore a very ugly face, and I imitated him, tutting at him, “At least he has a wikipedia page. Do you have one? You don’t.”

Yu Haiqiao glared at me, but continued to read nevertheless, “Born in 1994, November 20th…” He ​​sarcastically spat out these words dryly, sounding like a system mechanically reading, then said, “His face makes him look as if he were born in 1994, but I look as if I were born after the 00s.”

I think the age written in his profile must’ve been falsified. Wouldn’t someone born in 1994 be many years younger than me? That was impossible. I ignored Yu Haiqiao’s mockery of the guy’s wikipedia profile, but towards his judgment about the guy’s looks, I didn’t think it was fair, “You’re too impartial.” I told him seriously.

Yu Haiqiao glanced at me, lowered his eyes and continued to stare at the other party’s information on his phone. The number of mocking words coming out of his mouth began to increase, “His height is 178 cm.” He tittered, “This 178 cm is taken out of the real height of 169 cm. He rounded up his height and considered himself as 170 cm. He then combed his hair higher and added another 2 cm. He also wore a height-boosting insole under his feet that’s about 2cm tall and the height the shoe he wears is about 2cm, so did adding all of these together give him that beautiful number of 178cm?”

Yu Haiqiao’s scorn didn’t seem like it was going to end soon, dragging on and on. It was to the extent that I had to raise my eyes and look at him squarely. He was still fixated on looking at the mobile phone and after scrolling through the other party’s information, he dropped his phone in disgust. When he turned to look at me, he couldn’t bear to look directly at me. His face was scrunched up in sadness as though he had bitten on a bitter gourd. “Sigh, I accidentally saw his photo and dirtied my eyes. I now want a pair of eyes that haven’t seen this photo.”

Yu Haiqiao’s words made me laugh. This dog managed to level up the use of his acrimonious tongue to a higher level, making me want to stifle my laugh back. After holding it in for a long time, I finally couldn’t hold back and leaned towards him to pinch him on the arm while howling with laughter, “You crazy b!tch!!!”

Yu Haiqiao stretched out his hand to support me. His mouth spoke to me very seriously, “Where is the disinfecting alcohol? I’m going to go and disinfect my mobile phone and fingers later.”

I didn’t hold back my hand and pinched his pectorals. This b!tch was very diligent in working out, so I could help but objectively confirm that he was indeed in good shape. I pinched him twice, and Yu Haiqiao took my hand off and threw it aside. He looked at me with disdain, and pretentiously haughtily told me, “Don’t molest me, Shi Ran, I’m someone you can’t get a piece of.”

I slapped him on the arm and harrumphed, “Your jealous look is too ugly.”

Yu Haiqiao quickly laughed upon hearing this, “Me? Jealous? Who would I be jealous of?”

I looked up at him.

He met my gaze very honestly, his entire face appearing serious as if he was attending an important international conference with hundreds of cameras pointing at him.

I smiled at him, “Jealous that the other party is a celebrity, has fans, a wikipedia page and is even holding a concert. What about you? You’re just a programmer working in a pharmaceutical company, a livestock of society who’s going to go on a business trip in a few days to give a lecture.”

Yu Haiqiao blinked, and I saw the corner of his mouth twitch slightly, before he quickly smoothed it down. He blinked at me slowly, and as if he was throwing me an amorous look, he asked, “Don’t you think that with this brother’s looks, height, and figure, I’ll have better chances of success than him in the entertainment industry?”

I stared at Yu Haiqiao’s still smiling face. Then leaned closer to his ear, softly and gently saying, “Your ears are red, idiot.”

Yu Haiqiao, this thick-skinned strange species, seemed to haven’t heard of the words “Sorry” or other embarrassing words in his entire life. However, there were still times where he would still feel ashamed. At those times, his ears would flush red, just like right now. They were so red you could squeeze out rouge ink.

I silently tutted twice in his silence, and stroked his head, teasing him, “It’s alright. Big sister loves you.”

Yu Haiqiao waved my hand away, turned off the light, and got into the quilt, spitting out three words stiffly, “Go to sleep.”

I had to follow up on victory and press home the attack, “Then do you still want to disinfect your phone and fingers?”

Yu Haiqiao responded, “Shut up!”
