Everyone Knows I'm a Good Person Chapter 115.1

Chapter 115.1

Editor: Sahloknir

Shi Qing likes me.

The person that Shi Qing likes…is me.

These were the only two thoughts left in Tan Mingjin’s mind.

They flashed back and forth again and again in an almost obsessive manner.

But they made him so very happy.

As soon as he recalled that the person Shi Qing liked was Tan Mingjin, the man could not stop smiling.

Yes.

That’s right.

That’s the way it should be.

Sixteen years apart in age, with wealth that no one in this city could match.

The person who treated him well, patted him on the head, sent over food that he liked, and video chatted with him everyday.

When he reviewed Shi Qing’s statements that day without the a.s.sumption that the person he liked must be a woman, everything pointed to that person being him, Tan Mingjin.

Shi Qing acted like he disliked him, but the little Shi Qing that represented his inner thoughts always regarded the man with affection and admiration, always clamouring for a hug.

Shi Qing clearly did not like Cheng Yunling at all, but he forced himself to act like he was courting her.

The reason he did this was because Tan Mingjin had once shown a hint of care and good will to Cheng Yunling.

This child must’ve been jealous.

As soon as he reconciled Shi Qing’s fierce, yet aggrieved demeanour with jealousy, Tan Mingjin could not help but chuckle quietly.

The little details that he didn’t take seriously before all started to make sense.

Why did Shi Qing never take the initiative to approach him when he clearly liked being close?

Why did Shi Qing call him three times a day after he and Cheng Yunling had become ‘close’?

Why did this child react so strongly when Tan Mingjin wanted to go on a blind date?

The answer to all of these questions had come to light.

The more he thought about it, the clearer the situation became. All of the blood in the man’s body seemed to boil, along with his thoughts.

I like Shi Qing, and Shi Qing also likes me.

Is there anything in the world that could make a person feel happier?

The carefully driving driver looked up in the mirror at President Tan, who had a gentle smile on his face. The slight curl of his boss’ lips made him shudder.

He had worked for President Tan for so long and saw many times where the man’s face was as cold as frost, but this was the driver’s first time seeing him like this.

He would smile, and then laugh while shaking his head.

Was this still President Tan?

Could it be…did he come into contact with supernatural forces??

The superst.i.tious driver shivered again. He continued to drive while filled with trepidation.

Tan Mingjin was basically operating on autopilot now.

He absentmindedly left the restaurant and got in the car.

When his phone rang, he picked up.

The voice of Cheng Yunling came from the other end, “Are you looking for Young Master Shi, President Tan? But I haven’t told you my address yet.”

“No need for that.”

Tan Mingjin’s heart had long since drifted to Shi Qing, but he could still answer as usual.

The man’s voice was a quiet but pleasant timbre, “I know where you live.”

Cheng Yunling: …Okay then.

She really wanted to ask how he knew, since she told like five people tops to keep the paparazzi away.

But it didn’t seem that unusual for someone like President Tan to know this now that she thought about it.

She should have known that Tan Mingjin was practically omnipotent in this world where money could do almost anything.

The all-powerful Tan Mingjin soon arrived in front of Cheng Yunling’s house.

He got out of the car and looked at the house in front of him, a flash of tension in his eyes.

The door was unlocked, but he was actually a little afraid to step inside.

Tan Mingjin still hadn’t forgotten the last thing Shi Qing had said before leaving him.

He said that he hated him.

Although Tan Mingjin knew that those words were in response to his declaration of forever being Shi Qing’s uncle, which was probably misunderstood as a rejection…

But the man still felt a sense of trepidation inside.

He paced back and forth downstairs with grave emotions and hesitant eyes.

The driver carefully stood beside the car, watching his boss’s slender form walk around. He clearly wanted to go up but didn’t dare to.

The driver then glanced warily at the door that was barely closed. It looked like it would open with the lightest of touches. Finally, his gaze snuck to the eight trigrams mirror hung by the door. He shivered again.

The driver cautiously stepped forward and asked, “President Tan, do you remember when I asked for an advance on my salary the first year I started working for you?”

“En.”

Tan Mingjin wrinkled his brow and gave the driver a puzzled look. He didn’t mind a bit of conversation to placate his troubled mind right now.

“Your wife had been in a car accident.”

The driver sucked in a breath.

As expected of President Tan. He even remembers something like this.

The driver’s body relaxed slightly, but superst.i.tious as he was, he still had some doubts inside. After some thought, he slowly stepped forward and removed the eight trigrams mirror by standing on tiptoe.

He looked at Tan Mingjin tentatively. “President Tan, you…”

Tan Mingjin didn’t notice what he did at all. He was busy taking a deep breath to calm himself down.

As long as Shi Qing likes me…

Even if he was still angry with him, Tan Mingjin would definitely be able to coax him into coming back.

Letting out another deep breath, the man’s eyes were filled with determination and tenderness as he strode forwards on his long legs and walked in.

The driver, who was trying to see if he was possessed while still holding the eight trigrams mirror: “…”

OMG!!!

Tan Mingjin was completely unaware that the driver downstairs was thinking about whether to run or not.

He had already walked into this small villa under Cheng Yunling’s name.

The villa was paid for in full by Cheng Yunling. Because she didn’t use an agent and took measures to preserve her privacy, the paparazzi didn’t even know this place existed.

That was why she brought her boyfriend here to ‘take refuge from the storm’.

That was the plan until the ‘storm’—aka Shi Qing, followed them over.

Because she had bought the house with the intention of living alone, Cheng Yunling did not put much thought into soundproofing.

As such, Tan Mingjin could hear the lively and clear voice of the young master upstairs when he came in.

“Position, position!!! You’re off position! Aiya! We died again!”

His last sentence sounded very depressed, enough to remind the man of the last time he and Shi Qing had met. When he had suggested arranging a blind date for this little guy, Shi Qing’s tone was also depressed like now.

Was he playing games again?

He was so fond of playing games… Tan Mingjin had scolded him many times to no avail.

Were even games unable to bring Shi Qing happiness after leaving him?

The tenderness in the man’s eyes intensified as he headed straight upstairs.

He wanted to tell Shi Qing that he did accept his feelings.

After he resolved this misunderstanding, they could finally be together.

He would never be as mean to Shi Qing as he had previously been ever again.

However, Tan Mingjin’s smile froze just as he reached the top of the stairs.

From where he was standing, he could just about see Shi Qing lounging on the sofa with a handsome looking man. The two were both holding their phones and crossing their legs with smiles on their faces, looking like they had a happy and close relationship.

Shi Qing was patting the thigh of the person next to him and laughing. “I’m going to laugh my a.s.s off at that mage hahahahahaha. I’m going to teabag her too after resurrecting hahahahahaha!!”

He could not be more happy or lively if he tried.

Tan Mingjin: “…”

The handsome man who was laughing along with Shi Qing unintentionally looked up just in time to see a man with dark clouds around his head glaring, with killing intent, at…

—Shi Qing’s hand that just landed on his leg.

Cheng Yunling’s boyfriend: “…”

The guy jumped to his feet, forgetting all about the phone game. He subconsciously retreated eight feet away from Shi Qing.

“P-President Tan.”

The youth who was bewildered by his sudden retreat also turned around. A trace of joy flitted across his eyes once he saw Tan Mingjin, but he quickly seemed to remember something and turned away with scowl.

“Hmph!”

Don’t misunderstand, it wasn’t Shi Qing who huffed.

It was little Shi Qing.

The little guy was trying hard to stand on tiptoe to make himself look bigger. His tiny left hand was on his waist while a single finger on his tender and white right hand pointed at Tan Mingjin as he furiously cursed the man out.

“Yiiiiiiyaaaaa!!!”

“Yiya yiya!! Yiya!!”

He was so angry that he didn’t think it was enough just to curse. When he couldn’t stay on tiptoe anymore, he stomped his feet in a fierce manner.

He did seem to be ranting at Tan Mingjin judging by his tone and actions.

But when a tiny thing like this little guy did it, paired with his squeaky voice, it was oddly cute.

Tan Mingjin’s dark expression after seeing Shi Qing interacting with that pa.s.serby (yes, in his eyes that guy was a pa.s.serby) gradually warmed.

He gently smiled again as he stepped forward and sat right next to the grumpy Shi Qing.

Carefully but firmly reaching out, he slowly took the youth’s soft hand in his.

Shi Qing stiffened. A few hints of hesitation appeared on his fair face as he turned to look at Tan Mingjin.

“You…”

“Shi Qing, I misunderstood what you said before.”

Since Tan Mingjin had figured everything out, he definitely wouldn’t be vague anymore. He resolutely held Shi Qing’s hand and pulled out a ring from his chest pocket.

It was a men’s ring.

And just like that, he slowly put the ring onto the young master’s slender finger without hesitation. “I’ve wanted to give you this ring for a long time.”

“Shi Qing, are you willing to be my companion?”

Shi Qing blinked and looked down at the ring on his hand.

[Isn’t this way too OOC…?]

He could not believe that Tan Mingjin, who had once decided to spend the rest of his life alone, had done this.

But he couldn’t resist the temptation in the end and played along, grasping Tan Mingjin’s hand tightly as well.

The youth was a bit reluctant. “Fine. I guess I’ll say yes since you’re practically on your knees.”

Immediately, a huge sense of surprise erupted in Tan Mingjin’s eyes.

He could hardly wait, so he proposed to Shi Qing.

“Let’s fly out of the country and get our license today, alright?”

Shi Qing glanced at the ring on his hand, then at Tan Mingjin, who was looking at him hopefully. He pretended to hesitate.

Seeing the look on Tan Mingjin’s face gradually change from antic.i.p.ation to caution, and then from caution to nervousness and fear, only then did he huff and lift his chin.

“Alright.”
