Chapter 128 - Please explain ordinary family.

After going through the process of inquiry, they did not set off for Beijing immediately since there was no scheduled flight. However, that did not mean Kang Shengzhe had the luxury of landing on the ground before Bai Yao announced that they were going to sit on the high-speed railway to go back.

Such a huge celebrity like Bai Yao wanting to sit on the high-speed railway was unheard of, but it sufficiently displayed Bai Yao’s resolution and neither You Liangxing nor Kang Shengzhe dared to object.

The trio’s travels were done in a rush and when they finally reached their seats, Bai Yao did not forget to arm herself to the teeth in her full gear of sungla.s.ses, mask and hat. Furthermore, even despite sitting in the innermost seat, she still tried to lower her sense of existence.

As Kang Shengzhe watched her go through these hardships, he comforted her: “It’s fine, you don’t have to conceal yourself so thoroughly.”

Bai Yao said: “What the h.e.l.l do you know, do you know how popular I am?”

Kang Shengzhe said: “I don’t know but you can rest a.s.sured, with Liang Liang and I by your side, they won’t be looking at you.”

Bai Yao rolled her eyes angrily but her gesture went unseen because of her sungla.s.ses. “I can accept it if it’s Ah Liang, but where does your confidence come from…”

Kang Shengzhe told her bluntly, “I’m taller than you and I’m better looking~”

Bai Yao: “……” Bleh!

However, reality made it a little difficult for her to refute his point and it nearly made Bai Yao want to die abruptly on the spot. Stretching out a slender finger, she jabbed it towards Kang Shengzhe’s big head before she took off her hat and sungla.s.ses, leaving only her mask.

It did make her feel more relaxed though, and Bai Yao let out a cold snort without speaking again.

The silence in the air only lasted for a moment. Not long after they were seated, Kang Shengzhe’s phone started ringing endlessly, starting with a WeChat phone call. Kang Shengzhe stared at his phone, complexion gradually growing heavier but he did not pick up the call. Instead, he only replied to something on his phone.

Seeing that the hue on his face was less than ideal, You Liangxing asked: “Who?”

Kang Shengzhe replied with one name, “w.a.n.g Lu.”

You Liangxing was aware that w.a.n.g Lu was Kang Shengzhe’s agent. “Something happened?”

Kang Shengzhe did not reply and You Liangxing was about to continue asking when he caught a glimpse of his own phone, and came to realise that his own silenced phone had more messages than Kang Shengzhe. The sender was Liao Su and he had a dozen missed calls as well.

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: –Brother Liang! What are the both of you doing!! Why aren’t you picking up the phone!!

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Are you and G.o.d K together? Have you seen the matter regarding MengMao???

[It’s Liao Su Not Plastic]: — Reply as soon as you see the message, something bad really happened! Tell G.o.d K to post a clarification, this sort of matter isn’t good for his reputation.

You Liangxing replied: — What’s wrong?

Once the message went out, Liao Su was abnormally surprised on his end: &#k2014; ! You finally replied!! You guys weren’t sleeping until now, right?! Ai, let’s not talk about this first, do you know about the matter circulating on the internet?

You Liangxing gave Kang Shengzhe a glance, only to see that Kang Shengzhe’s expression was extraordinarily calm and guessed that he just became aware of what Liao Su was concerned about. Thought spinning, You Liangxing was preparing to investigate when Kang Shengzhe abruptly stopped him in his tracks as he said: “Don’t concern yourself with it first.”

You Liangxing revealed a suspicious look, to which Kang Shengzhe smiled and said: “Liang Liang, nothing is more important than going back to see your parents with you.”

You Liangxing was rendered speechless in an instant while Bai Yao hummed smilingly. Tone indistinct, she said: “Consider yourself tactful.”

Since Kang Shengzhe spoke as such, You Liangxing stopped trying to probe the matter. He gave Liao Su a simple reply, telling him to calm down and disregard the matter for the time being before he set his phone down.

Kang Shengzhe pointed at his own shoulder. “Are you tired? Do you want to rest your head for a while?”

You Liangxing shook his head, expression wrought with some anxiety. Kang Shengzhe said comfortingly, “It’ll be fine, don’t worry about it.”

You Liangxing let out a soft sigh.

As the high-speed rail travelled at full speed, their surroundings were quiet. Kang Shengzhe stared at the moving scenery outside the window, emotions indiscernible. Alas, You Liangxing could not stop thinking about the matter Liao Su was talking about and he was about to ask when Kang Shengzhe turned his head around all of a sudden and leaned closer to his ear to whisper: “Liang Liang, what do I do, once I think about the fact that I’m meeting your parents, I start getting a little nervous.”

You Liangxing: “……”

“Don’t be nervous,” said You Liangxing helplessly.

Unable to help himself, Kang Shengzhe asked: “Liang Liang, what’s your family like?”

With the topic switching to this vein, You Liangxing did not have the time to think about the previous matter. He pondered about it seriously before he responded: “Our family is an ordinary family, it’s just that our house is a little bigger than most.”

Kang Shengzhe: “……”

Kang Shengzhe swallowed his saliva, visage expressing the strangeness he felt. “Liang Liang, are you being satirical with me?”

You Liangxing: “No, it’s the truth.”

He might say it was the truth but it did not a.s.sure Kang Shengzhe at all. Rather, it only served to increase the degree of strangeness he felt the more he thought about it because he could not tell if there was a double meaning in his words. Feeling complicated in his heart, Kang Shengzhe decided to sound out Bai Yao. “Older sister, what are your parents like?”

Bai Yao glared at him with her widened pretty eyes. “Who’s your older sister! Kang Shengzhe, pay attention to your words!”

Despite scolding him, she still answered him seriously. “My Mom doesn’t work much these days, she occasionally travels and shops, what is she like…”

“Indifferent and nothing mystical.”

Kang Shengzhe: “… Indifferent and nothing mystical?”

Bai Yao hummed, “En.”

Kang Shengzhe: “… Your father?”

Bai Yao, “My dad ah, there’s nothing much to say, he does some business, he wants for nothing.”

With the descriptions ‘indifferent and nothing mystical’ and ‘wants for nothing’ to add on to the ordinary family from before, Kang Shengzhe had nothing to say beyond the fact that his entire mind was in chaos.

After a minute of contemplation with nothing to show for it, Kang Shengzhe said: “Do you want to play a game?”

Bai Yao became startled, “You still have the mood to game?”

Kang Shengzhe said: “Are you playing or not?”

Bai Yao: “Not playing.”

Kang Shengzhe turned to You Liangxing, and the shorter man took out his phone, logged into the game and the pair entered a team room before they started a duo queue. Without needing ten minutes, the pair ended a match swiftly with a victory under their belts.

Initially, Bai Yao had the face of an aloof G.o.ddess on, but after listening to them she could not help but become interested. She stared at them and saw that they were cooperating with tacit understanding, practically inseparable. Thus, she could resist saying in jealousy: “Hmpf, so what if you’re an anchor? All you know how to play is King’s Glory.”

Kang Shengzhe replied: “Have you been in the King’s division before?”

“Not yet,” said Bai Yao.

Kang Shengzhe: “Then, you have the nerve to say that the game you’re playing is King’s Glory?”

Bai Yao: “……”

Bai Yao felt her air lodge itself in her chest and it was apparent that she was going to act up. You Liangxing pulled her hand in a hurry and said: “Come online, let’s play together.”

Bai Yao: “… Hmpf! Don’t think I’ll let go of you just because you’re bringing me along, Ah Liang! … Invite me.”

Throughout their entire journey, the three of them gamed and time flew past swiftly. In that period of time, You Liangxing fell into a trance twice, only to stabilise himself with timely smiles from Kang Shengzhe.

Indeed, no matter what was happening, the most important thing before them was that they were going home to meet Bai Yan and You Ming.

Their journey was smooth sailing; after they got off the high-speed railway, Bai Yao’s personal little a.s.sistant Yao Miaomiao had already prepared a car to fetch them. When Yao Miaomiao saw Kang Shengzhe, she suffered from a lapse in her concentration, and the shock she felt only increased after she discovered the fact that You Liangxing and Kang Shengzhe were a pair.

“My G.o.d, I didn’t expect that…” That brushing encounter they had as they were separated by a car window part.i.tion, would actually end up with them being together in a blink of eye.

Yao Miaomiao sighed with emotion, “All the ladies underneath the skies are about to cry themselves to their watery graves, but I must say, both of you are very well-suited for each other.”

Bai Yao issued a loud “Ah” and said, “Miaomiao, what did you say just now, I can’t seem to hear you?”

Yao Miaomiao let out a “haha” before she very consciously shut her mouth.

They were roughly an hour into the ride when the car took a turn and entered an exceedingly magnificent villa district. Kang Shengzhe looked left and right. Ever since they entered the district, they had been surrounded by precious flowers and fauna, for every villa had its own huge flower garden. Unexpectedly, there was even a long dark blue swimming pool running along the middle of the road, and it looked less like decoration and more like the swimming pool was its own lane.

Truthfully speaking, if he hadn’t known this was Beijing, Kang Shengzhe would have thought that he was in Dubai.

Bai Yao: “Are you feeling like your lack of wealth has limited your own imagination?”

Kang Shengzhe’s flower-like features and moonlike face scrunched together, “Liang Liang, why didn’t you mention these to me before…”

You Liangxing said in a matter-of-factly tone: “There’s nothing worth saying about it.”

Kang Shengzhe: “……”

Kang Shengzhe covered his chest abruptly and it took him a long time before he managed to compose himself. Then, he asked, “Liang Liang, which unit is your house?”

You Liangxing said: “En? This entire villa district actually, although I’m not certain if the other villas have been sold recently.”

From the front pa.s.senger seat, Bai Yao supplemented, “It hasn’t been sold. Mom said it’s quieter when our family lives alone, and it’s not like we lack the money, so what are we in a rush to sell it for.”

Kang Shengzhe: “……”

Kang Shengzhe: “Liang Liang, I feel like I’m having trouble breathing.”

You Liangxing: “……”

You Liangxing reached his hand out to help Kang Shengzhe rub his chest, but Kang Shengzhe threw himself into his arms with a powerful momentum, tearing as he sobbed out: “This is what you call an ordinary family?”
