Xiang Chen and the others watched as Shi Sui took a pillow in one hand and held Xiang Yi in the other, leading the person to the bedside.
He patted the bed and said in a coaxing tone like he was cajoling a child, “Go to bed.”
Xiang Yi yawned and obediently plopped herself down on the bed. She then lifted the thin blanket to cover herself.
“Good night, Shi Sui.”
Xiang Yi murmured in a warm and mellow voice as she covered her head with the warm blanket.
She felt that he was too noisy.
Shi Sui said with a smile, “Go to sleep, I’ll go get beaten up.”
He had great self-awareness!
…
…
In the underground boxing gym.
Xiang Yu, Xiang Qi, and Xiang Li were panting heavily, their foreheads covered in sweat.
Xiang Li’s breathing began to get a little erratic, and he even removed his glasses. He now regretted skipping the gym and training.
Xiang Chen was still exchanging blows with Shi Sui.
“Come again.” Sweat flowed down Xiang Chen’s chiseled jawline as his breathing was steady and his expression was sullen.
Shi Sui, who was opposite him, was still as poised and composed as ever.
“Brother Shi Sui is quite impressive…” Xiang Yu said softly.
After all, he could still put up a fight against Xiang Chen.
Xiang Qi was so exhausted that he laid on the ground. Hearing his words, he kicked him and said, “Can you stop overestimating the opponent and demoralizing us?”
Xiang Yu said, “Someone here keeps getting beaten up… He almost had to climb up the pillar…”
Xiang Qi asked, “Did you not get beaten up? Trust you to call yourself the god of e-sports, you’re just like an elementary school kid!”
The two argued and chattered, while Xiang Li silently sat a little farther away from the two of them.
…
…
On the following day.
In the nanny van, Si Chuanbai looked at the wound on the corner of his artist’s eyebrow, and he sighed. He said, “You really got hit, huh?”
Shi Sui was speechless. ‘Why is he acting like he’s looking forward to seeing me get hit?’
“Fortunately, the wound is small. Let’s have Xiao Li to cover it up for you later,” Si Chuanbai said as he took a glance at his leg. “How’s your leg? Do you need me to rent a wheelchair to push you to the event later?”
Shi Sui was speechless too.
“Are you my manager or my greatest hater?” he asked in a helpless tone.
Si Chuanbai said uprightly, “I’m Miss Xiang Yi’s manager, and I’m like her family too. You’re just an artist I signed out of convenience.”
“…”
The makeup artist couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
He was Shi Sui’s exclusive makeup artist, and they’ve been rather close over the years. They spoke without restraint either and said, “If the netizens find out that you ended up getting beaten up by Xiang Yi’s brothers, they’re definitely going to celebrate with firecrackers.”
Shi Sui replied rhetorically, “Is my current persona that of a person that everyone hates?”
“Haha because except for the fans who ship the two of you together, everyone wants Xiang Yi to stay single,” the makeup artist teased. “By the way, I heard today’s guest is Fu Jiayan who’s known to be a flirt. You have to work harder, or else, Xiang Yi’s going to be taken away by another man.”
…
…
When she woke up and found herself in Shi Sui’s room, she was utterly confused.
She was extremely diffident. She tiptoed to the door and opened it in a bid to sneak back to her own room, but she heard a cold voice coming from above her head.
“Are you awake?”
She subconsciously stood upright and greeted him, “Good morning, Big Brother. What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you!”
“Do you know how to please me now?”
Xiang Yi exclaimed seriously, “It’s only right to be nice to your brother!”
Xiang Chen’s expression was still hostile, but he couldn’t help but smile as he accidentally strained his wound. He was in so much pain that he inhaled sharply.
Xiang Yi assented and asked, “Brother, why are you hurt? What did you do yesterday?”
Xiang Chen sneered, “I hit a dog.”
Xiang Yi was speechless.
