CEFYMA: Chapter 109

The gorgeous arias of the Italian opera seemed to linger in their ears. At the curtain call, the actors stood together on the stage, and the audience applauded gracefully.

Since filming wasn’t allowed in the theater, You Mian turned off the live stream for a while. He only turned it on again when he followed Pei Huaiji out of the hall.

There was a lot of noise all around him, and the crowd was rushing toward the exit.

You Mian was holding the camera. He had just lowered his head to adjust the shooting angle when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

The moment You Mian turned around, he found a young duo. The two of them were looking at him with enthusiastic eyes. One of them lowered her voice and exclaimed, “You Mian! Is that you?”

“Are you coming to see Tosca too? What a coincidence!”

The overly excited tone and expressions of the two made You Mian instinctively take half a step back.

Pei Huaiji immediately turned around and walked to You Mian’s side, saying in a deep voice, “Sorry, we are filming a show.]

[Hahaha, they met a fan.]

[Mianmian looks a bit surprised. Maybe he was frightened.]

[Mianmian probably didn’t expect that he would be so popular now. He can be recognized even when watching the opera.]

You Mian blinked and nodded in response to Pei Huaiji’s words, “Yes, we are filming a show.”

Fortunately, the two young people were easy to talk to. They immediately waved to You Mian and Pei Huaiji and said, “I didn’t expect to meet you here by chance. I won’t bother you any longer.”

You Mian smiled and nodded.

After leading You Mian out of the theater hall, Pei Huaiji glanced at the live stream camera with a serious look. His previous guess became more certain.

The show had become so popular that passersby on the street would recognize You Mian.

But this type of fame was a double-edged sword. Pei Huaiji was worried that the overly radical black fans on the Internet would encounter You Mian by chance. They might even deliberately find You Mian’s address to look for him.

Security issues must be put on the agenda. Pei Huaiji frowned slightly and thought about it.

Huajiang City’s theater was next to the Huajiang River. Across the brightly lit river was where You Mian and Pei Huaiji had their conversation that night.

You Mian gently scratched Pei Huaiji’s palm from a position that wasn’t visible to the live stream camera. He interrupted the man’s frowning motion and asked with a smile, “What are you thinking about?”

Pei Huaiji blinked and replied softly, “Nothing.”

“Our 12 hour date is over? Do you want to go home?” The young man’s voice was soft and lazy.

Pei Huaiji looked along the sparkling Huajiang River. Behind him was the waltz that played during the intermission of the opera.

The man held You Mian’s hand and walked toward the railing by the river.

Pei Huaiji lowered his head to look at his watch. His eyes, which had been sharp just now, became extremely gentle.

“An hour and a half left,” he said.

Pei Huaiji tilted his head and looked down. He raised a handsome eyebrow and invited You Mian in a very magnetic voice, “Can you dance with me?”

You Mian was startled when he heard this. He also noticed the melodious waltz playing behind him when he heard Pei Huaiji’s invitation.

But half a second later, the young man shrugged. His handsome eyes and eyebrows were brighter than the moon in the night.

“Of course,” You Mian replied with a smile.

He placed the live stream phone under the horizontal railing and aimed it at the footsteps of the two people.

[? What a strange angle.]

[Hahaha, I am dying of laughter. There is no place to fix it on the railing by the river, so they can only put it on the ground.]

[Ahhhh, I want to see them dance!]

[Just be content to see their feet… It is good enough that Mianmian still remembers us.]

[What a truth! I am laughing so hard that I cried.]

[Chairman Pei is really awesome. I am raising the banner of the cultivating cotton base. Who is interested? It can be discussed!]

[Chairman Pei is really romantic. I am convinced.]

[Dancing a waltz by the river. Chairman Pei is awesome.]

Pei Huaiji stood there waiting. You Mian turned around and walked back to him after a while.

Just as Pei Huaiji lowered his eyes to think, You Mian took the initiative to put a hand on his shoulder. He also took Pei Huaiji’s hand and placed it on his waist.

You Mian smiled openly, his eyes bright.

“What are you waiting for, Chairman Pei?”

Pei Huaiji’s big hand was placed on You Mian’s waist. It looked like he could almost hold it with one hand.

The height difference made the two people standing face to face at the edge of the river at night looked particularly well-matched.

Accompanied by the rhythm of the waltz, they embraced each other and danced in the moonlight to end their date.

The white fluff of the young man’s hood would brush across Pei Huaiji’s lips and chin as he turned around, causing waves of numbness.

Pei Huaiji held You Mian’s hand with gentle eyes. The waltz came to an end in the cold winter wind, and he hugged You Mian, who fell into his arms.

[F*k, it is so ambiguous just looking at the feet.]

[Who is this CP that I am obsessed with? It is the CP that I am obsessed with. Prprprpr. I won’t say much about this immortal product!]

[I have a long story in my mind, hehehe.]

[Brother Ge can make us daydream. On this day of dating, the screen is always black and only half his body is always exposed. Now just looking at their feet makes me scream repeatedly, hahaha.]

[The atmosphere is amazing. The lights from the theater behind them are reflected on them, and their shadows under the street lights are also very beautiful.]

[Oh my god, look at the shadow!! I’m hugging you!]

[Ahhhhhh.]

You Mian’s ears turned slightly red and he tilted his head back with a smile. “Sorry, I stepped on your foot.”

You Mian had never danced the female steps and wasn’t very skilled.

Pei Huaiji frowned and said, “No need to apologize, Mianmian.”

The moonlight reflected in Pei Huaiji’s eyes, and You Mian felt that the love in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.

If someone had told You Mian two months ago that he would be in a relationship with one of the guests on this show, You Mian would’ve never believed it.

“Pei Huaiji,” You Mian said softly.

Pei Huaiji hugged You Mian tightly in his arms and nodded when he heard this, indicating that he was here.

You Mian smiled and looked up.

In the twilight, Pei Huaiji clearly saw You Mian open his mouth and utter three words.

[I like you.]

The live stream camera was still filming. You Mian spoke softly, but it sounded deafening to Pei Huaiji’s ears.

The confession came suddenly but it also wasn’t sudden.

The man only felt a burst of sparks rising uncontrollably in his mind, crackling and exploding into balls of brilliant fireworks.

They kissed secretly in front of the tens of thousands of people watching the live stream camera.

You Mian drove the car on the way back because Pei Huaiji no longer had the calmness to look at the navigation carefully, and his lack of directions took over again.

Pei Huaiji held up the live stream camera and filmed You Mian. During the entire 40 minute journey, Pei Huaiji kept filming You Mian as if he was staring at You Mian.

Pei Huaiji had an obvious smile on his face and the surging love in his eyes was unconcealed.

[Chairman Pei, don’t love him too much.]

[Brother Chair sometimes makes me unable to think he is the chairman of JL. He looks a bit silly.]

[Brother Chair said: I’ll show you now. You won’t have a chance in the future.]

[Ahhh no.]

[The hatred of being deprived of Mianmian is irreconcilable.]

[Chairman Pei is still filming. He has been filming from the same angle for 40 minutes. Hahaha.]

[But from this angle, Baby Mian is really handsome and beautiful. How come his eyelashes are so long? How come his skin is so beautiful? His side profile is handsome, cool and cute.]

[As a live audience at the ski resort, I can only say that Brother Mian is ten times more handsome than on camera. The camera often only captures his upper body, which makes the audience think he is cute. But when looking at him offline, Brother Mian is 1.8 meters tall, super tall! Super cool! Super handsome!]

[The handsomeness of a young man. Seeing him smile at you in person, the impact is indescribable…]

Pei Huaiji was distracted and glanced down. He suddenly saw the sentences in the live stream room. Then the next second, he turned the camera to the outside of the car window.

[??]

[I want to see Mianmian! Ahhh.]

[Chairman Pei, please curb your possessiveness and stop being so stingy.]

For the rest of the journey, the stingy Pei Huaiji kept the camera pointed out the window until the two people stopped the car and got out. Then the screen started shaking again.

Pei Huaiji followed You Mian closely. His clingy attitude reached its peak the moment You Mian said the words ‘I like you.’

The 12 hour long date was over. The moment the two of them approached the bamboo house, a staff member came and took away the live stream camera.

You Mian bent down and waved at the camera with a smile. “It is great to spend a day with everyone. See you tomorrow!”

Pei Huaiji waved his hand very cooperatively.

[Woo woo woo, goodbye Baby Mian!]

[Goodbye, Brother Chair and Mianmian.]

The staff member closed the live stream room amidst the barrage of reluctant goodbyes.

Hong Sheng sat behind the camera and smiled at Pei Huaiji and You Mian. “You two are the last to come back.”

Once Pei Huaiji turned around, he became the superior with a cold and sharp aura again. “You said 12 hours. We didn’t exceed the time limit.”

Hong Sheng: “……”

After 12 hours, this guy really didn’t waste a single second.

Hong Sheng remembered the person who coldly asked the camera to move away from him before the recording of the first episode and couldn’t help finding it funny.

It was amazing that Pei Huaiji, such an offensive guy with extremely low emotional intelligence, could find love in the show.

Hong Sheng snorted and inwardly complained about the sour smell of love.

Hong Sheng waved his hand at Pei Huaiji rudely. Pei Huaiji frowned at this person who was acting familiar like an old friend.

The moment You Mian and Pei Huaiji walked into the Heartbeat House, they saw five other guests sitting inside. They actually were the last group to come back.

After being out of contact for a day, You Mian really had no idea how Guan Tong, Shen Nanxiao and the others had spent the day.

As always, Guan Tong was the first to rush over when he saw You Mian, flamboyant pink hair bouncing. Without waiting for You Mian to ask, Guan Tong smiled and said, “The five of us played together. We finished in the afternoon and came back. I didn’t expect you two to come back so late!”

Guan Tong smiled teasingly, “I can’t wait to ask you what you guys were doing.”

You Mian took off his down jacket, placed it on his arm and said casually, “According to the map given by the show’s staff, Chairman Pei chose three stops.”

Guan Tong covered his mouth in surprise and asked, ‘Three stops?”

They went to a roller skating rink and came back. Guan Tong didn’t have enough fun.

The two of them were talking when they saw three people sitting at the dining table behind the Chinese screen. They all came out after hearing the noise.

They were Yan Tingxuan, Huo Yanzhi and Yun Guanqing.

Yun Guanqing leaned against the screen, frowned, and said, “You are back so late.”

Yan Tingxuan smiled and pointed upstairs. “We divided the rooms among ourselves first. Now there are three rooms left. The two of you can choose where you want to live in later.”

You Mian nodded calmly. Just as he was about to turn around to pick up his luggage, he didn’t expect that Pei Huaiji had already picked up the suitcase before him.

“You choose first,” Pei Huaiji said in a deep voice.

You Mian tilted his head and asked, “Where do you want to live? I can live next door to you.”

Pei Huaiji’s brow relaxed when he heard this. “Okay.”

The two of them chatting as if they were alone made everyone present, except Guan Tong, look gloomy.

It was as if all the pursuit and competition had come to an end at this moment. The dust settled, and any struggle was useless.

Yun Guanqing smiled in an unconvinced manner. He refused to turn back until he hit the wall.

He looked at You Mian’s back and suddenly spoke loudly, “Hey, You Mian.”

You Mian stopped and turned around. He heard Yun Guanqing suggest, “I haven’t seen you all day. Do you want to go out and chat later?”
