Bedtime rolled in.
With her back facing ShenXi, Song Wenye was fooling around with her phone.
Shen Xi was not one to spy, but her curiosity got the better of her as it was apparent that something was going on with Song Wenye. The girl was not good at hiding secrets. Shen Xi cried, “Song Wenye.”
Song Wenye was scared into hiding her phone. She was as nervous as a thief caught red-handed.
Shen Xi asked, “Are you hiding something from me?”
Song Wenye retorted, “No way. What would I hide from you?”
Shen Xi answered, “Judging by your lovesick face, I would say you’re in a relationship.”
She got around long enough to take an educated guess by the way she was holding her phone and secretly giggling away. Yes, Shen Xi heard her. Song Wenye was acting rather silly.
Hot with emotions, Song Wenye covered Shen Xi’s mouth. “Shh!”
Shen Xi smiled. Bingo! “So you two got together?”
Surprised to be found out, Song Wenye nodded. “Yes, don’t tell anyone.”
“Why? My parents and Granny Yu are itching for you two to date. We’re all adults here and craving love and affection. It’s normal to be in love.” Shen Xi rolled her eyes. There was no need to keep it under wraps.
Song Wenye kept shushing Shen Xi, begging her to turn her voice down so no one could hear them. “I hadn’t thought about how I should properly meet the parents.”
Shen Xi was amused. “Look at you. Are you still the Queen B*tch of No. 4 High School?”
Song Wenye pursed her lips. “I’m no longer the Queen B*tch since I graduated.”
Shen Xi replied, “Fine. I’ll keep your secret. Let me know when you guys are ready to let the cat out of the bag.”
Song Wenye warily warned her. “You better stick to your words.”
Bobbing her head, Shen Xi curiously drew near. “Did my brother make the first move?”
Song Wenye mushily nodded. “Yeah.”
Oh gawd. The sweetness was going to give Shen Xi diabetes. She had never seen Song Wenye so loved up and shy. It was too adorable to watch. “My brother really took his time. I would’ve had a word with him if he didn’t profess his love sooner.”
It was true. She was anxious for a breakthrough to happen between them.
“You wouldn’t dare.” Song Wenye was annoyed. “Just you wait. I’ll look for Toffeecito’s dad and have him confess his love for you.”
“I would thank you if you can make that come true. Heck, I’ll even buy you dinner. You can have anything you want.” Shen Xi wished Li Yuan would be the first to say those magic words.
“Don’t tell me you’re planning to confess to him!” Song Wenye fell into thought before adding, “But it doesn’t hurt for you to take the first step.”
Shen Xi looked at her. “Didn’t you say that boys should be the ones to confess their love instead of the girls?”
Song Wenye frowned. “I wouldn’t be able to stand it if he dragged his feet on taking the plunge. I guess if you really, really like him, it’s not necessary who opens their heart first.”
Shen Xi made up her mind. “I’ll confess my feelings to him on the day I turn eighteen.”
Song Wenye coyly hugged her. “Have you thought about how you’re going to do it?”
Shen Xi responded, “I’ll give him a confession he’d never forget before throwing him a grand wedding.”
Song Wenye commented, “It’s so easy to be your boyfriend. You do everything for him.”
“Oh, my sister-in-law. You’ll be happy to have a good man like my brother. You don’t have to worry about anything at all.” Shen Xi bantered.
The term “sister-in-law” brought out the flush in Song Wenye’s face. She tickled Shen Xi and threatened her, “Don’t call me that, you hear me?”
Shen Xi dodged and ducked. “It’s bound to happen, you petty punk.”
Song Wenye snapped back. “Still.”
Shen Xi gave up. “Got it, Sister-in-law!”
Song Wenye put her weight on Shen Xi and silenced her. “Don’t say that!”
She was not ready to make the switch yet!
Meanie.
Shen Xi threw her hands up in surrender. Jokes aside, there was a serious matter to consider. “Between you two, one is an actor and the other an idol. Since Yu Yuanxi hasn’t made a name for himself, you’ll lose a lot of fans if you go public with your relationship. I’m talking about boyfriend and husband-figure fans.
A female idol’s fanbase was largely made of fans who imagined themselves as the said idol’s boyfriend or husband.
“It doesn’t affect me, but I’ll need to let my manager know beforehand.” This question had not crossed Song Wenye’s mind. Now that she had a boyfriend, she did not see the need to hide the relationship.
She would openly come clean if someone were to ask.
If the question was not brought up, she would continue her secret romance.
“Alright.” Shen Xi agreed with her way of thinking but also added a neutral suggestion. “It’s better than letting the paparazzi make a headliner out of you two. That’s your reputation down the toilet. However, you guys should just date in secret and consider making it public when you go solo.”
Since she was in a girl group, one person’s romance would have repercussions on her and the other members as well.
Besides, they were currently the hottest girl group with their career on the rise. Making their relationship public would do more harm than good.
“You’re right.” Song Wenye chuckled. “To be secretly dating is intriguing. The idea of sneaking around sounds like a thrill.”
Shen Xi nodded her head with a smile. “You should make your own decisions.”
“I don’t want to drag Yangyang and the girls down because of this.” Song Wenye understood that she did not just have a boyfriend, but she also had a lot of good friends too. She could not neglect her friends over a relationship. “It wasn’t easy for them to get this far.”
While it did not matter what would happen to her, the other girls in the group gave their all to get to where they were today. Song Wenye did not wish to do anything that would adversely affect them.
After collecting her thoughts, she sent Yu Yuanxi a text message. [Song Wenye: Let’s date in secret.”
[Yu Yuanxi: You can do that.]
He would not. Since he had a girlfriend, Yu Yuanxi wanted the whole world to know that he was taken. It would also prevent people from taking it the wrong way.
For a moment, Song Wenye was left guessing his intentions. She sent him a puzzled face meme.
[Yu Yuanxi: I want people to know that I have a girlfriend and avoid any unnecessary inconvenience.]
Song Wenye smiled like an idiot. It was a great feeling to have a boyfriend. She shyly texted a kissy emoji and nighty-night. [Song Wenye: Goodnight.]
[Yu Yuanxi: Goodnight.]
It was a night of sweet dreams.
Song Wenye was on a break for the next two days. Granny Yu joined her square-dancing partners to burn incense and worship at a temple.
Yun Jinping and Shen Zhangqing were working all day every day.
Shen Xi disappeared next door, with the excuse that she wanted to give the two lovebirds some space to spend some alone time.
The heat was scorching during mid-August.
Shen Xi lay on the sofa, fussing Li Yuan to tickle her ear with her hair. She stretched out in indulgence while Toffeecito sprawled on top of her head. On the opposite sofa sat Song Xiaomi who came to mooch a meal with Toffeecito.
Song Xiaomi was an arrogant and aloof little princess who refused to give anyone the time of the day..
