    Chapter 50: Eating Melons (Gossip)

    Shi Qingfeng came home with his stomach full.

    He didn’t even eat dinner that night, which made Father Shi and Mother Shi feel very strange.

    The next day, Qin Tingshen looked at Lin Heng standing in his office, feeling extremely annoyed.

    “Why can’t he just talk to me?”

    “Does it really have to be decided who’s on top and who’s on the bottom?”

    Qin Tingshen glared at him. “If you don’t want to decide, then you can be on the bottom.”

    Lin Heng was choked by his words and looked at his phone sullenly.

    Adorable Little Orange Cat: [Mengmeng?]

    The other party hadn’t replied to him for an hour.

    Ever since their unpleasant parting that day, Lin Heng couldn’t help but want to keep chatting with Chu Yue whenever he thought of his face.

    These past few days, Lin Heng had been absent-minded, asking Chu Yue out several times, but Chu Yue didn’t pay much attention to him.

    “How’s it going with ‘Person Not Found’? How did you get him to agree to be your boyfriend?”

    Lin Heng looked at Qin Tingshen’s radiant smile and felt a bit irritated.

    How come his road to love was so bumpy, while Qin Tingshen’s was so smooth?

    Lin Heng completely forgot that Qin Tingshen’s pursuit of his wife was even more difficult than his.

    At least Chu Yue still paid attention to him occasionally; Shi Qingyan was completely unreachable. When he finally caught him, he was severely beaten.

    Qin Tingshen felt that Lin Heng hadn’t experienced serious setbacks yet.

    Regarding Lin Heng’s question, Qin Tingshen didn’t want to answer.

    He couldn’t possibly say that he only got his wife after being the bottom, right?

    “Your problem is easy to solve. You be on the bottom, and he’ll definitely agree.”

    Qin Tingshen didn’t even look up, dealing with the documents in his hand.

    As soon as Lin Heng heard this, he immediately bristled. “No way, I’m the one on top, how could I be on the bottom?”

    Qin Tingshen gave him a heavy blow. “Then just find someone else.”

    Lin Heng deflated again.

    Did he really have to be the bottom?

    Adorable Little Orange Cat: [Mengmeng, if I were on the bottom, would you agree to be with me?]

    The other party replied instantly: [Yes.]

    Lin Heng looked at the instant reply, feeling happy and melancholy at the same time.

    He lay on the table, sometimes giggling like an idiot, sometimes frowning, acting like a fool.

    Qin Tingshen was afraid of being infected by him, so he left the office.

    Qin Tingshen took out his phone to send a message to Shi Qingyan.

    Qin Tingshen: [Baby, are you free tonight?]

    Shi Qingyan was busy eating melons (gossiping), how could he have time to pay attention to him?

    “Are you saying the person with the blurred face in this video is you?”

    Shi Qingfeng pointed to the person opposite Lin Heng in the video and asked Chu Yue.

    Chu Yue nodded, looking at Lin Heng with complicated emotions.

    Actually, Lin Heng wasn’t bad, it’s just that they both wanted to be on top, which was a bit inappropriate.

    Shi Qingfeng didn’t even know what to say. So, the blurred person that everyone in their circle had been discussing recently was him.

    The blurring technology was so good that no matter how many people hired experts to remove the blur and see Chu Yue’s face, the blur seemed to be welded on, and couldn’t be removed.

    This largely protected Chu Yue’s privacy.

    The only one who lost face was Lin Heng.

    “What are you thinking?”

    Looking at the conflicted Chu Yue, Shi Qingfeng really didn’t want to deal with these trivial matters.

    Shi Qingyan sat on the sofa in the office, his eyes on his phone, but his ears were perked up.

    “I feel like he’s, he’s not bad, it’s just, it’s just…”

    It’s just that they both want to be on top, hahaha.

    Shi Qingfeng rubbed his aching forehead. “Then you go discuss it with him.”

    Chu Yue looked annoyed. “He doesn’t agree.”

    Shi Qingfeng felt like he was sick, discussing with him who was on top and who was on the bottom.

    Shi Qingyan couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this. “Hahahaha.”

    Chu Yue glared at him angrily. “What are you laughing at? Is it that funny?”

    Shi Qingyan pretended to be watching a video. “Huh? What’s wrong, Brother Chu? I’m watching a video. This video is very funny.”

    Looking at Shi Qingyan’s innocent face, Chu Yue’s anger died down.

    How could such a cute younger brother be laughing at him?

    He had wronged his brother again.

    But he always felt like his brother was laughing at him.

    Shi Qingyan: That’s right, I’m laughing at you.

    “Ding~”

    Chu Yue’s phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Lin Heng.

    After seeing what the other party sent, Chu Yue quickly replied with one word: [Yes.]

    After sending it, he realized that his hands were too fast.

    He should have made him wait a while, made him anxious.

    Chu Yue looked at his phone, waiting for a long time without any movement. He immediately deflated and lay on the table.

    Sure enough, things that are too easy to get won’t be cherished, right?

    Shi Qingfeng couldn’t bear to look at Chu Yue’s appearance. Did this person only have this much potential?

    “Isn’t it just a man? Can’t you find another one?”

    “You don’t understand.”

    Shi Qingfeng didn’t want to see his dejected appearance and angrily left the office.

    Chu Yue was depressed for a long time when he heard his phone ring. He picked it up and looked at it. Crap, it was a message from a software push notification.

    Shi Qingyan saw that there was no more gossip to eat for the time being. He glanced at the message and saw that it was from Qin Tingshen.

    Baldy Will Always Shine: [Free.]

    Qin Tingshen waited for a long time before receiving a message. He was happy for a long time. [Baby, date tonight?]

    Baldy Will Always Shine: [Rabbit nodding GIF]

    Qin Tingshen was instantly charmed by the cute emoji.

    He saved the emoji and continued to send messages.

    Lin Heng hesitated for a long time before finally steeling himself to reply to the message.

    Adorable Little Orange Cat: [Let’s meet tonight.]

    Chu Yue jumped three feet high when he saw the message, muttering, “He asked me out, he asked me out.”

    Shi Qingyan perked up his ears again.

    Hamster Mengmeng: [Okay.]

    Adorable Little Orange Cat: [Then let’s meet at the Love in Four Seasons Restaurant at 7pm?]

    Hamster Mengmeng: [Okay.]

    Shi Qingyan asked Chu Yue seemingly unintentionally, “Brother Chu, are you coming to our house for dinner tonight? You haven’t been to our house in a long time.”

    Chu Yue was visibly happy. “I can’t, I have a date tonight.”

    Shi Qingyan pretended to be surprised. “Ah? You have a date? With whom? At which restaurant? Is it delicious? If it’s delicious, I’ll go there in the future too.”

    Chu Yue didn’t expect Shi Qingyan to be digging for gossip. “I’m meeting a friend at the Love in Four Seasons Restaurant. The taste is good.”

    Shi Qingyan nodded knowingly. “Oh, I see. I’ll try it later.”

    Shi Qingyan sent a message to Qin Tingshen: [Go to the Love in Four Seasons Restaurant.]

    Then he quietly ran away.

    By the time Shi Qingfeng remembered his brother, the person was already gone.

    He asked Chu Yue, but Chu Yue didn’t know either.

    You love-struck idiot, all you know is men, men, men.

    Chu Yue went home, took a shower, changed clothes, styled his hair, and put on some perfume.

    After tidying up, he looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction.

    It was only 3 pm, and it was still early for the date.

    Chu Yue looked at the time from time to time, only five minutes had passed.

    He looked again, and only three minutes had passed.

    “Why is time passing so slowly?”

    Shi Qingyan ran to Qin Tingshen’s company to find him but was stopped by the receptionist.

    Shi Qingyan: …Careless.

    He made a direct phone call, and President Qin personally came down to pick him up after receiving the call.
