"I've done a lot of wrong and outrageous things, and I desperately want to get back the attention you stole from me... I'm sorry." Xie Weishui tilted her head back and drank a full glass of beer, her tone sincere:
"I know that the harm I caused you back then is irreversible. I don't ask for your forgiveness, I just hope you can understand my ignorance at the time."
[Actually, Chi Li already understood, right? [Stunned] He didn't even take Xie Weishui seriously...]
[ Xie Weishui is a typical example of someone who got arrogant after becoming famous, thinking that with her popularity and connections she could easily crush a newcomer, but she learned her lesson after her downfall...]
[These things are understandable, but I'll never forget the scene where he suddenly crawled into Shen Qiang's arms while dressed as a woman...]
[Because he was punished on the spot, I'm actually okay...]
[Wow, we've found out the real reason Shen Qiang didn't come to the Raising House today!]
So, will I ever live to see Chi Li actually wear women's clothing for me? [Pity]
[Prayer] I've been waiting.
"It's alright," Chi Li said magnanimously. "Because the harm you caused me was zero. Therefore, you should apologize not to me, but to the fans who used to like you."
"Hahaha!" Jiang Lele laughed loudly. He had also drunk quite a bit and was clearly a little tipsy, his speech slurred. "... You didn't expect that, did you? The damage you caused to Chi Li was actually zero!"
Xie Weishui was half embarrassed and half helpless.
Upon closer reflection, that is indeed the case.
After all the framing, he ended up suffering the consequences himself.
"Luckily it was 0." Xie Weishui smiled with some relief. "Otherwise, I might not even have had the chance to stand here and apologize."
Jiang Lele squinted and grinned sheepishly, "I'm the smartest! I followed Chi Li early on..."
Although this was thanks to Shen Qiang's 'liking' for Chi Li, which led him to develop a fondness for Chi Li as well, he eventually found Chi Li more and more pleasing to the eye...
Chen Anyan looked up at him. "Can you please not use the word 'follow'?"
"In our circle..." Gu Nan said calmly, "There's no such etiquette."
"And Fang Jin!" Jiang Lele, completely ignoring what the others were saying, started flaring up on her own. " Fang Jin is even smarter than me!!"
Perhaps due to the alcohol, Fang Jin, who had been inexplicably singled out, unexpectedly uttered a long sentence. "... Is it necessary to use this incident to determine this obvious fact?"
Jiang Lele tilted her head, not understanding. "...¢￥&#?"
Gu Nan pressed the person back into the chair and casually translated, "He said Gu Nan is much smarter than you!"
Fang Jin: "... I cannot agree."
"..."
After a brief commotion at the table, Gao Yuan stood up and began to speak frankly and sincerely to Chi Li.
After he finished speaking, Chen Anyan also started talking.
To be honest, they didn't really have much of a relationship, but the sweet words that came out of his mouth kept coming, and he managed to make Chi Li his idol.
More people stood up...
There were probably a whole circle of people standing.
Chi Li listened attentively at first, but later he started to drift off, and under the cover of it, he started counting Shen Xunye's fingers.
" Shen Xunye, aren't you going to say something?"
After the table fell silent, someone asked this question.
Shen Xunye played along with Chi Li's 'finger-counting' game, casually asking, "Do I need to say anything?"
[That smug look on his face really makes my teeth itch. Why is this kid so lucky?!]
No need to say anything, just do it! [Smirk]
[Actually, I really want to ask Shen Xunye, how did you fall in love with Chi Li back then?]
[Is that even a question? It's definitely lust at first sight! (Because I am one too.)]
"Tell me your feelings when you saw Chi Li's actions on the show?" Gao Yuan let out a silly burp.
"The feeling is..." Shen Xunye tucked his hand under the table and gripped Chi Li's tightly, "It's so interesting."
Chi Li, realizing she hadn't succeeded, suddenly froze and glared at Shen Xunye with some dissatisfaction.
Shen Xunye released his hand again, and drew a small circle in his palm with her fingers in a flattering gesture.
"Alright, everyone's drunk and staggering around, let's stop this incoherent chatter." Shen Xunye abruptly ended the party. "Go back to your rooms and rest."
An Che was pretending to be drunk while slumped over the table, quietly opened one eye and said weakly, "... Call someone to come pick me up."
Although Shen Xunye knew that he and Shen Yu had some ambiguous relationship, he didn't understand his implication and turned to Qin Jian, asking him to contact An Che's team.
Then, he left the chattering group at the table and helped Chi Li into the dormitory.
Shen Xunye glanced at the camera on the dormitory wall; its red light was still on.
... Tsk.
"Are you dizzy?" Shen Xunye bent down and gently massaged Chi Li's temples. "Sit quietly here for a while, I'll go get you some hangover soup."
Halfway through the meal, Fang Jin had already started cooking the hangover soup, which was now kept warm and ready to be taken at any time.
"Ugh..." Chi Li closed her eyes, her tone languid. "But it wasn't from drinking, it was from their nagging."
[Able to speak a complete sentence, judged to be slightly tipsy. [Adjusts glasses]]
[A little voice in Chi Li's head was probably shouting: Stop talking!]
[ Xie Weishui setting this bad example! [cursing]]
[All this talk is no substitute for a practical gift.]
[ Lele seems to have mentioned on social media that Chi Li had said beforehand that he wouldn't accept gifts. ( Gao Yuan's gift was prepared a long time ago.)]
[ Chi Li looks so cute when she's dizzy... Doesn't Shen Xunye want to give her a kiss?]
[Hey, I've noticed you guys don't seem to call Chi Li" wife" as much anymore? (I'm a career-oriented fan)]
[Six months ago, Chi Li's fandom underwent a major transformation due to the movie trailer and stage performance. The once overwhelmingly dominant "wife party" gradually waned as members began to defect...]
[Simply put, we couldn't come up with a unified way of addressing her, and calling her by that name could easily lead to arguments, so we've decided to just call her Chi Li or Xiao Li.]
[This story has a touch of humor to it...]
"Then don't take the hangover soup. I'll stay with you for a while," Shen Xunye coaxed softly.
"Okay," Chi Li replied obediently, then softly added, "Then, you need to be quiet."
As he spoke, he pouted and looked at Shen Xunye with a pitiful expression.
Shen Xunye's heart felt as if it had been struck by something, producing a bittersweet feeling.
Like a piece of candy, soaking in warm water, slowly, little by little, it dissolves.
