178: After learning that Dongfang was coming, Xie Yunxuan said: I’ll treat you!
"Damn it, I'm the Son of Luck!"
Inside Villa 18 of the resort, Xie Yunxuan gripped his phone, sprang to his feet, his heart pounding with excitement.
Is Dongfang coming?!
He was writing a novel right now! Maybe he could show it to the great Dongfang then and ask for his guidance. Then, perhaps, Dongfang would have a better impression of him, praise him more at the fan meeting, and he could even become the leader of the middle school bookworms in their hearts, thereby converting those bookworms into his own fans.
Hahahaha!
Xie Yunxuan's breathing quickened slightly, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.
He really wanted to give Director Liu a big hug!
He picked up his phone and called his assistant, "I'm treating everyone to milk tea this noon. Go arrange it."
After a few instructions, he hung up the phone.
Two minutes later, his phone rang, and Xie Yunxuan answered the call from his assistant.
"What? Chen Fang already treated them?"
Xie Yunxuan frowned slightly. Chen Fang had been praising him a lot recently, even giving up the bookworm persona to him. Why was he still trying so hard now?
He must have gone silly from being home for the holidays, right?
"Then I'll treat everyone to fruit. Just arrange it according to their tastes. OK, I'm hanging up."
...
At the villa entrance, Chen Fang carried his backpack into the car.
This was a seven-seater minivan. The first row had the driver and front passenger, the middle had two independent airline seats, and the third row had a sofa seat.
Chen Fang carried his backpack into the car and sat in the seat behind the driver. The back row and the boss's seat behind the front passenger were left for Yue Qingzhu to choose.
Yue Qingzhu sat in the second row, smoothed her skirt, and took a deep breath while holding her backpack.
Ignoring the driver uncle, today they were alone in one room! And he was sitting right next to her.
The corners of Yue Qingzhu's mouth unconsciously curved upwards, her cheeks flushed slightly, her legs pressed together, and her toes lightly tapped the ground, then unconsciously swayed.
"Teacher Yue, will you use the back row?"
"Huh?" Yue Qingzhu paused, looked at Chen Fang, and shook her head.
Immediately after, she saw Chen Fang bending over to get up.
Yue Qingzhu's breathing hitched, the smile on her lips froze, she lightly bit her lower lip, her brow furrowed slightly, but after a moment, she forced herself to quickly relax and swiftly lower her gaze to hide her emotions. Yet, her right hand, moving away from Chen Fang, couldn't help but clench her skirt.
Chen Fang got up, put his backpack in the back seat, and then sat back down.
Seeing his actions, Yue Qingzhu's eyes lit up instantly as if stars had risen within them. She quickly looked out the right window to hide her smile.
Her tightly clenched fingers relaxed, and her fingertips lightly tapped her knee twice. The stuffy feeling in her chest also instantly dissipated, and her breathing became lighter.
Chen Fang was still confused by the negative emotion value notification sound in his mind when he suddenly noticed it stopped.
He leaned forward and saw Yue Qingzhu secretly smiling, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Yue Qingzhu turned around, her cheeks flushed, and she fanned herself beside her face, "Uh, it's a bit hot, haha, I just thought of my dog."
Yue Qingzhu put down her hand and hugged her backpack, "It's very cute, a little Golden Retriever. Oh, right, you've seen it, the first time I went to your house, it came along too, do you remember?"
"I remember." Chen Fang remembered that licking dog.
"Its name is Canlan, and it's super well-behaved."
"Good name. My cat is called Xiaobai."
...
In the front row, Chen Fang's exclusive driver uncle listened to the conversation between the two in the back row and felt his CPU was about to explode.
The first time he went to his house?! Does this mean there will be a second, third, and fourth time?
And now they were going home together.
And all he received was Chen Fang's home address...
Holy cow?!
What had he discovered!
Teacher Chen, you're amazing! I couldn't tell, you always bickered with Song Yu like a couple of noobs about relationship topics, but secretly you're already living with Teacher Yue?!
Oh my god, what a huge piece of gossip! But his duty was only to ensure Chen Fang's safe travel. For an artist of Chen Fang's level, privacy comes first, and he couldn't go over Chen Fang's head to report it. He had to keep it to himself.
Phew—these two better go public among their familiar circle soon, otherwise, he was going to burst.
In the back, after the two chatted for half an hour, Chen Fang felt a little carsick from the traffic jam, so he rubbed his temples, "Excuse me, Teacher Yue, I'm going to close my eyes and rest for a bit."
"Mm, you rest."
Chen Fang closed his eyes.
Just now, Yue Qingzhu mentioned Canlan, and now he closed his eyes and thought of his own cat.
Before, at home, Xiaobai would come over every morning. Sometimes it would pat him, sometimes it would sniff him. Probably afraid he'd kick the bucket and no one would feed it.
After getting used to having a cat, he wasn't quite used to the past two mornings. He always felt like he needed to be patted to wake up...
Beside Chen Fang, Yue Qingzhu stared out the window for a while, then looked at Chen Fang.
He really was handsome, his nose was so high.
Looking down, his fingers were also very long, no wonder he played the piano... uh, pretty well.
They were almost there, could they chat a bit more?
Yue Qingzhu pursed her lips, stretched out a finger, and lightly patted Chen Fang's hand.
Suddenly, Chen Fang grabbed her index finger with his reverse hand, and Yue Qingzhu's mind instantly crashed.
Immediately after, Chen Fang groggily opened his eyes and looked over.
It's over! She was caught red-handed.
What to do? How to explain?
Chen Fang looked at her, only to see her ear tips quickly turn pink.
Chen Fang's mind also crashed for a moment.
How could it be her? In his dream, it was clearly that rebellious son, Xiaobai.
The driver uncle in the front row glanced at the rearview mirror and raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Oh my goodness, never mind, don't look, don't look.
Chen Fang quickly let go, "Sorry."
Yue Qingzhu also quickly waved her hand, "Sorry, I... I just wanted to ask if you wanted to chat for a bit."
Chen Fang awkwardly nodded, "I was half-asleep just now and thought it was my cat."
"Oh, Xiaobai, right? I'd really like to meet it."
"Do you really want to meet it?"
"Mm-hmm!"
"Then this afternoon."
"Okay!"
The driver uncle drove the car with a look of despair.
I can't take it anymore, can you two just close your eyes and sleep? There's a living person in the front here!
Money is so damn hard to earn.
From Chen Fang's tone, he was even going to bring the cat from somewhere else for her to play with.
So, all this time, you've been fooling Song Yu?
All sorts of chaotic thoughts whizzed through the driver uncle's mind.
But the car fell into an awkward silence.
"Oh, by the way, I just saw that the author of 'ghost blows out the light' is coming to 'the adventures'."
Yue Qingzhu tapped her phone screen and opened the news comment section she had just read.
The bookworms were quite excited.
"I want to know when the second part will be released!"
"Can you have a lottery for signed editions?"
"What does Dongfang look like? Will he be a young, handsome guy?"
"He should be quite old, right?"
"It doesn't matter what he looks like, releasing the second part is what's important."
She turned her head to look at Chen Fang, "Hey, what do you guess Dongfang looks like?"
"Very handsome, probably."
"Very handsome? As expected of a bookworm, do you have a filter for him?"
"I think he must be super handsome."
"How handsome?"
"Hmm, about on par with me."
