- Chapter 54 - This Is Slander
Then, after marriage, his baby would surely be this happy every day.
A few days later, Xu Wanxing was discharged from the hospital.
Climbing out of Lu Yanbai’s sweet embrace, Xu Wanxing stretched and stepped into the gates of Imperial Capital University.
It was time to go back to school.
Oh, right, his advanced math!
Study, study, study!
As soon as he arrived at school, he immersed himself in the library. Xu Wanxing was shocked to see 99+ messages on his phone.
Who was it? Who sent him so many messages?
He opened it and saw it was Pei Yu.
From initially asking for his address to eventually begging him not to be angry and frantically transferring money, he was also asking why Xu Wanxing wasn’t streaming anymore.
Xu Wanxing counted the expired transfers and calculated that they amounted to several hundred thousand Yuan.
My goodness, he really is rich.
But Xu Wanxing’s heart was already calm, after all, he had just accepted a house from Lu Yanbai.
He was now, in a way, a partial resident of the Imperial Capital.
He felt no inferiority when facing them anymore.
Xu Wanxing felt a little guilty. He hadn’t looked at his phone messages for so many days because he had been completely immersed in Lu Yanbai’s tenderness.
He thought for a moment and replied.
“Wanxing: I’m so sorry, Brother. I haven’t been feeling well and was hospitalized a while ago. My phone was kept by my family, so I couldn’t see your messages. I’m truly sorry.”
Family = Lu Yanbai.
Perfect, that reason worked.
A message came from the other side almost immediately.
“Pei Yu: Wanxing is sick? What’s wrong? Is it serious? Are you feeling better now? Let me transfer some money to you, Wanxing, so you don’t run out of money for medical care.”
“Yu has transferred 520,000.00 to you. (Note: Voluntary Gift)”
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.
Incredible. He directly transferred 520,000 Yuan!
Rich guy indeed.
Xu Wanxing clicked “Return.” “Wanxing: No need, Brother. I’m already better and discharged. Please keep this money for yourself.”
Pei Yu was touched beyond measure. What kind of angelic little baby was Wanxing? So considerate, so gentle.
He must protect the best Wanxing in the world, especially since he was so fragile.
“Pei Yu: Wanxing, can you give Brother an address? Brother wants to mail you a small gift. It’s just a little something, nothing expensive. Consider it a request from me.”
A gift?
Xu Wanxing suddenly remembered the pile of gifts on Pei Yu’s desk.
It had been so many days—would that super-sized, 100 Yuan-per-piece white strawberry have gone bad?
What a heartache!
Wait, why was he distressed? It wasn’t like he bought it. A poor person like him could never buy strawberries that expensive in this lifetime.
Forget it. He would feel bad even for someone else’s strawberries.
Xu Wanxing refused, but Pei Yu was persistent, using soft and hard tactics, until Xu Wanxing finally gave him the address of a courier station a few kilometers from Imperial Capital University.
That area was a residential complex with tons of people, so he likely wouldn’t be found out.
So, Pei Yu originally intended to send a gift to him.
Wait a minute, was the little Omega Pei Yu said he liked actually the “Wanxing” persona he played online?
Xu Wanxing: …Fortunately, that was just his online alias.
Pei Yu was overjoyed. Wanxing, who had been unreachable for many days, was finally back and had even given him an address.
Pei Yu rummaged through the gifts and took out the box of strawberries that looked a bit soft. This was too shabby; he couldn’t give it to Wanxing.
Thus, after a day of studying in the library, Xu Wanxing returned to his dorm and saw Pei Yu eating the large white strawberries on his desk.
Pei Yu noticed Xu Wanxing’s gaze, picked one up from the desk, and handed it to him. “Want some? It’s been sitting out a little long, so it’s a bit soft.”
Eat it? Must eat it!
He had never eaten such expensive strawberries before.
Xu Wanxing took the large strawberry, happily took a big bite, and heard Pei Yu next to him say, “How come I haven’t seen you around school these past few days?”
Xu Wanxing explained that he had gotten gastroenteritis and had stayed in the hospital for a few days.
Pei Yu’s heart skipped a beat, and he stared blankly at Xu Wanxing.
“You were hospitalized?! And it was because of the meal we had together!”
Xu Wanxing’s heart lurched. Could Pei Yu have figured it out?
The next second, Pei Yu rushed over, and Xu Wanxing was caught off guard as he was hugged in a bear-like embrace.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault. I didn’t know you couldn’t eat those things and made your stomach sick, causing you to be hospitalized.”
Xu Wanxing quickly said, “No, no, it’s not your fault. I didn’t know I couldn’t eat those things and kept eating them. It’s okay, it’s okay. You can let go of me now.”
Pei Yu released his embrace, his face full of guilt, looking at Xu Wanxing apologetically.
Xu Wanxing patted his shoulder. “Seriously, it’s fine.”
Pei Yu said, “I put you through trouble, buddy. I’ll cover your food expenses this semester.”
Xu Wanxing: “Huh?!”
“There’s only half a semester left. Thinking about it, you’re getting a bad deal. How about I cover your food expenses next semester too?” Pei Yu said after some thought.
Xu Wanxing quickly waved his hand. “That’s enough, that’s enough, good buddy.”
Pei Yu’s eyes curved. “It’s fine. Consider it building up good karma for me and Wanxing.”
“Wanxing?” Xu Wanxing’s voice held a note of surprise.
Pei Yu immediately became energized at the mention of the name.
“Wanxing is someone I met in a live stream. He’s a streamer—good-looking, great figure, loves to act spoiled, and is very clingy.”
“He’s truly a super cute Omega. I like him a lot.”
Xu Wanxing paused. Pei Yu actually liked the type of persona he played in the live stream?!
He had been wondering where Pei Yu found an Omega he liked so much.
Xu Wanxing: It really is myself?!
The System suddenly spoke up.
[Host, a reminder here: you need to play the part of a sycophant online, who is then disgusted and abandoned, following your character’s established setting.]
Xu Wanxing, the sycophant himself: [Okey-dokey.]
Xu Wanxing asked, “You really like Wanxing? Do you want to be with him?”
Pei Yu nodded hard. “Of course!”
“But isn’t it true that streamers online have several ‘big brothers’ and ‘sisters’? What if you’re just one fish in his pond?”
Xu Wanxing began to self-deprecate without hesitation.
Pei Yu’s expression instantly changed. He suddenly looked at Xu Wanxing as if remembering something. “You shouldn’t slander my Wanxing just because you’re jealous of him.”
Xu Wanxing: …Are you listening to yourself? I’m slandering myself because I’m jealous of myself.
Well, that was technically true.
It seemed he needed to put on a show of his own promiscuous, passionate persona during his streams to make Pei Yu withdraw, thereby allowing him to suck up to Pei Yu wildly and be disgusted and abandoned by him instead.
He was a little genius. The mission was easy.
Pei Yu subtly frowned. If he had a good impression of Xu Wanxing before, that impression had now completely changed. He actually dared to slander his Wanxing.
Xu Wanxing was in the middle of eating the large strawberry Pei Yu gave him. Seeing this, Pei Yu reached out. “Give me back the strawberry.”
Xu Wanxing looked at the large strawberry with several bite marks on it and paused. “Fine.”
Pei Yu took the strawberry and plop, threw it in the trash can.
Xu Wanxing was dumbfounded.
