Jiang Lele forced a smile and quietly looked up, unsurprisingly meeting a pair of dark, deep eyes.
"Delete it," Shen Xunye said again.
To show his friendliness, he deliberately curled the corners of his mouth into a smile.
But to Jiang Lele, it only horrified her.
He felt that if he said no, this smiling tiger would snap his neck the next second.
"Delete!" Jiang Lele valued her life highly and immediately deleted the photos she had just secretly taken.
But he still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking he could restore it from the recently deleted items later.
"Delete it recently, then delete it again." Shen Xunye didn't give him a chance to get away with it.
Jiang Lele: "..."
With a pained expression, he completely deleted the photos he had prepared to show Shen Qiang to cheer him up.
"Hmm." Shen Xunye was satisfied.
He ignored Jiang Lele and strode towards Chi Li, who was playing with the dog.
The puppy was wagging its tail happily in front of Chi Li, still wearing the little clothes Shen Xunye had bought for it before. The dog looked extremely cute.
"It does know who treats it best," Shen Xunye said casually, extending his hand to Chi Li and abruptly saying, "Get up."
"?"
Chi Li was puzzled, but she still slowly placed her hand on it.
The moment their hands clasped, the two similar bracelets on their wrists, shimmering with tiny silver light in the sunlight, were clearly visible side by side to everyone.
It was like a silent, yet unmistakably clear, declaration.
[Holy crap... This... this is a couple's bracelet?! Am I seeing things?!]
[It's just wearing the same style, don't make a fuss. [Cool]]
[Is this the brand's latest main product? The two items together seem to cost over 200,000...]
[CP fans, don't get too excited yet, this is obviously a promotion.]
[The promotion is really good, can you guess why the brand hired them for promotion? [winking emoji]]
[They're still discussing promotion, don't you guys think their hands look particularly stiff when they shake hands?]
[One dark, one light; strength and fragility, roughness and delicacy... this subtle contrast is almost making me dizzy with its fragrance.]
[Hmm, if we apply this contrast to the bedroom...]
[Mmm... that felt good.]
Shen Xunye used a little force to pull him up from his squatting position.
Perhaps because she had been squatting for too long, Chi Li's legs went numb, and she staggered, almost bumping into Shen Xunye's arms.
Shen Xunye didn't let go, but stood still, waiting for someone to notice.
"This bracelet is beautiful." Shen Qiang glanced down at their clasped hands. "I'll buy one too later."
Chi Li: "..."
He wondered why this person had pulled him up for no reason; it turned out it was to meet their daily KPI of selling BL content...
That's incredibly dedicated.
Chi Li slowly withdrew her hand, not wanting to consider any other possibilities.
"These are couple's sets," Shen Xunye emphasized. "If you're going to buy them, you have to buy a pair, but... if you buy them, will anyone wear them with you?"
"You might not be aware of the current trends." Shen Qiang lifted Chi Li's hand, the one wearing the bracelet, and gently touched the bracelet. "Stacking bracelets is all the rage now. I see Little Chi Li's wrist is quite bare; you could add another one."
Shen Xunye: "..."
Old ginger is spicier.
[The older generation is very tolerant; they don't even flinch when they see Crush wearing matching bracelets with other people.]
[This Shen Xunye is so competitive, always trying to show off, and so childish. Our Shen Qiang and Little Chi Li are much more suitable. (Nods)]
Shen Qiang is unassuming, calm, and only suited to be a sleeping, incompetent husband. (not really)
[They're fighting inside, and you're fighting outside, right?]
"Practice cooking more." Shen Qiang smiled slightly and gently put Chi Li's hand down.
Shen Xunye was so angry he wanted to grind his teeth.
Chi Li wanted to remind Shen Qiang not to overact, otherwise it would be difficult to handle if he really attracted a group of CP fans.
However, feeling that they were being watched by the cameras, she had to politely decline, saying, "Teacher Shen can easily wear them herself, why bother giving them to me?"
"Exactly." Shen Xunye's anger vanished instantly.
So what if he's bad at the game? He may be bad, but he has people protecting him.
"Fine..." Seeing the smug look in Shen Xunye's eyes, Shen Qiang almost laughed in exasperation. "I'll wear it myself."
"Teacher Shen." Xie Weishui walked over, her face full of anticipation. "Will there be an acting class today too?"
"Not today." Shen Qiang said listlessly.
I messed around with them a little yesterday, and it resulted in two trending topics: # Shen Qiang # and Shen Qiang #. I got a severe scolding from my manager.
Today he wants to make the Spirit Pearl.
"Then... would you like to join me in a craft class?" Jiang Lele popped out from behind Xie Weishui.
"What kind of handicraft?" Shen Qiang asked.
"Poke Fun!" Jiang Lele pulled out her phone, quickly typed "Poke Fun" into the search bar, and showed it to Shen Qiang: "Hey, this is it."
Shen Qiang nodded without even looking closely, "It looks interesting."
"I've played it before, it's really stress-relieving." Jiang Lele immediately cheered when her suggestion was affirmed. "What I'm thinking is, if we all make it together, we can keep it, give it to each other, or give it to our fans."
"Sure." Since he didn't have anything else to do for the moment, Shen Qiang readily agreed. "Let's do it together."
After Jiang Lele skipped Xie Weishui and confirmed everyone's wishes one by one, she happily went to buy the materials.
--Of course, Xie Weishui still received his share of the materials. However, he had to pay for his own share.
The materials Jiang Lele bought were delivered quickly.
After everyone gathered together and received their portions, they started clicking away according to the tutorials Jiang Lele had found beforehand.
Chi Li held a small tuft of white wool in her hand, trying to use a needle to fix it to the mat, making a base that could barely be identified as round.
His movements were clumsy, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his focused expression was somewhat comical.
"It's so hard," he muttered in frustration, his fingers turning slightly white from gripping the needle so tightly.
[It's okay, honey. Except for Jiang Lele, who has some experience, the rest of you are all pretty much the same.]
It's hilarious to see them playing with those serious faces.
Let me guess who will give up first?
[ Wei Xuan, he seemed very impatient.]
[ Shen Xunye, his mind isn't on the game at all!!]
[ Shen Xunye, you tapped it twice to see what my wife meant?]
Before I knew it, the whole morning had passed by, spent tapping away.
The good news is that no one has given up; the bad news is that no one has found a legitimate way to do it.
They're either loose and sloppy, or they have crooked mouths and slanted eyes; they're completely unpresentable.
"I think this 'poke-the-go' game..." Chi Li said wistfully at the dinner table, "Should be 'poke Jiang Lele '."
Thinking of the thin needle, Jiang Lele, who was shoveling rice into her mouth, shuddered. She thought to herself, "This couple is truly terrifying, one more so than the other."
Huh? Why did he say "couple"?
