Color drained from Nian Junting’s face. “Alright, take those back. I don’t need them.”
“These are from my heart,” Xiao Si complained. “Keep them well.”
Nian Junting looked at him with distaste. In the past, he hadn’t looked as good as Junting, but he looked even worse now.
“When did you arrive in Xia City, Brother Xiao?” Luosang asked.
“This morning, I went to visit Shuangwei at the hospital, and then I dropped by to catch up with Nian Xi.” Xiao Si stretched himself out on the couch. “I didn’t expect so many things to happen while I was gone.”
“Yeah, most importantly, I didn’t expect you to become uglier,” Nian Junting said again.
The corner of Xiao Si’s mouth twitched. “Will you please stop aggravating me? I was going to court Ji Nuanyi at the start of the year. You were the one that transferred me to the Great Northwest. So be it, but you posted on your WeChat that I was on a blind date. She’s probably uninterested in me now. You killed the shoots of our love while it was still a seedling. Now that I’m back, I’m too embarra.s.sed to go look for her. Look at how ugly I look now. She would be shocked to see me this way.”
Luosang empathized with him. “You just need a good moisturizer. You wouldn’t look so bad if your skin wasn’t so dry.”
“What about my ruddy complexion?” Xiao Si asked with exasperation. “I heard from the Yuxi manager that one of the actors she’s working with now is courting her. Is it true?”
“I’m not sure about that. I’ve been busy with my work. I haven’t been keeping in touch with her. She probably won’t share the details of her personal life with me,” Luosang said apologetically. “Don’t think too much about it. Although you look tanner than before, you look a lot manlier as well.”
“Really?” Xiao Si asked skeptically.
“Do I look like someone who would lie to you?” Luosang blinked her eyes innocently.
“That’s true.” Xiao Si nodded. Luosang was a trustworthy person.
When Xiao Si left, Nian Junting looked at her meaningfully. “Are you sure you weren’t lying back there?”
“That was a white lie.” Luosang grinned and stuffed a mandarin orange into his mouth. Nian Junting bit her fingers, then he pounced on her.
…
Two days later, Luosang called Ji Nuanyi. She purposely mentioned Xiao Si in their conversation, and Ji Nuanyi fell silent over the line. “Speaking of Mr. Xiao, I nearly couldn’t recognize him at the Yuxi board of directors meeting yesterday. Gosh, has he changed. Ay, he was such a good-looking chap. He looks like a northwestern middle-aged man now. He gave me lots of red dates and dried raisins when he saw me, too. Said it was the local specialty. All I noticed was his ruddy complexion the whole time he was talking to me.”
Luosang nearly choked on the water she was sipping. Xiao Si would be devastated to hear what she had to say about him. “Those are really the best local specialties. I’ve been snacking on them every day. They’re super sweet!”
“Yeah, they’re sweet. Oh, right. Fanyu released a new game recently. I recommended you to them for voice dubbing. They pay their voice actors much better over there. Treasure the opportunity! The spokesperson for the game is a popular actor. You know that super-hot singer, s.h.i.+ Xiang?” Ji Nuanyi asked.
Luosang nearly choked on her water again.
“Don’t be overwhelmed. He is super popular. You can ask for his autograph. Sometime next month, though.” Ji Nuanyi laughed and hung up.
Luosang was in shock. She was going to work with Yan Su’s boyfriend.
