Chapter 382 – Intern Boyfriend (1): Shu Bai
writer:蝶之灵      update:2022-07-12 15:50
  The World Competition ended and Bai Xuan took advantage of the long vacation to return to his hometown. He wanted to go back to accompany his parents but as a result, Xie Shurong had to follow. He hugged Bai Xuan and complained, “I have to go. You can’t leave me alone in Changsha. I will think of you every day and miss you so much that I can’t sleep or eat…”

  He was like a koala as his body hung on Bai Xuan. Bai Xuan glanced at him helplessly. “How old are you? Can you grow up a bit?”

  Xie Shurong replied earnestly, “I just turned three this year.”

  Bai Xuan, “…”

  The Miracle League’s Most Shameless Award would definitely be awarded to Xie Shurong, there was no doubt. This person was obviously taller than Bai Xuan but he spoke with a spoiled face. Bai Xuan really wanted to kick him out.

  “Not this time.” Bai Xuan tried to remove the other person’s hands from his waist. “Ah Shu, don’t make trouble. My parents might know about my sexuality but I… I’m not reader to take you home just yet.”

  Xie Shurong understood his meaning and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes. His voice was also wronged, “Is it because I don’t meet the requirements of your parents? Or do you mean… you don’t really like me?”

  Bai Xuan sighed inwardly and didn’t know how to explain.

  In fact, Bai Xuan didn’t feel anything when Ah Shu first pursued him. After all, his ideal lover was a mature, stable and responsible man, not someone younger like Xie Shurong.

  Then Ah Shu’s passionate pursuit touched him and he promised to give the two of them a year to get along. In the blink of an eye, the one-eye contract was about to arrive. The problem of whether to continue dating this person or not was something that Bai Xuan had been thinking seriously about recently.

  During this year, Xie Shurong’s performance wasn’t perfect but he never dropped the chain in key moments.

  In the game, Xie Shurong was a sharp sword that could attack, retreat and defend. He played the game with sharpness, making his teammates feel he was exceptionally reliable. In real life, Xie Shurong was spoiled, would sell men, was greedy and childish. However, he also took care of Bai Xuan in a careful and thoughtful manner, especially when Bai Xuan was sick.

  Such a contradictory person made it difficult for Bai Xuan.

  Xie Shurong was far from the mature and stable boyfriend Bai Xuan had been looking forward to but Bai Xuan was reluctant to separate from him. Bai Xuan himself was still unclear about his feelings towards Xie Shurong and could only take one step at a time.

  After a moment of silence, Bai Xuan smiled helplessly and whispered, “I’m going home to visit my parents and can’t take you. I’m afraid that my parents won’t accept it for a while and want to prepare them first. You are still young and there is no need to be too anxious.”

  Xie Shurong hung his head. “Then will you miss me?”

  Bai Xuan’s heart softened and he reached out to touch this person’s face. “Yes.”

  Xie Shurong was happy and hugged Bai Xuan hard. “I will miss you every day.”

  Bai Xuan smiled and hugged him back. He patted Xie Shurong on the shoulder like a brother and told him, “I’m going to pack before catching a plane tomorrow morning.”

  Xie Shurong looked reluctant as he refused to let go of Bai Xuan.

  Bai Xuan helplessly ordered him, “Let go.”

  “Give me a kiss and I’ll let go.”

  Bai Xuan was speechless and kissed this person. As a result, Xie Shurong didn’t let go but actively deepened the kiss.

  “Um…”

  This kiss was gentle to the extreme and the deep love and reluctance to give up were clearly passed through the tongue.

  Bai Xuan’s legs weakened from the kiss and he grabbed Xie Shurong’s arm.

  At the end of the long kiss, Xie Shurong finally let go and smiled. “Go, pack your luggage and sleep early. I will miss you.”

  “Yes.” Bai Xuan was afraid to look him in the eye and almost fled.

  \r \r \r

  ***

  The next morning, Bai Xuan arrived early at the airport for a security check. He boarded the plane and had just put away his luggage when a familiar voice was heard behind him. “Hello beauty, can I change positions with you. This is my friend.”

  The lady next to him smiled and changed her position with the young man.

  Bai Xuan looked back and saw the young man wearing jeans and a short-sleeved t-shirt. He was tall, upright, handsome and particularly charming when he smiled. He was a typical sunny person. Then his gaze fell on Bai Xuan’s face and he smiled. “Hey, Vice-Captain Bai, we are actually on the same flight.”

  “…” Fart!

  Bai Xuan really wanted to open the window and throw Xie Shurong outside.

  What about last night’s reluctance? It was all fake!

  Bai Xuan took deep breaths to stabilize his mood before frowning. “How are you here?”

  Xie Shurong looked sincere. “The holiday is too long and I was bored staying at the team’s headquarters. Thus, I want to to go Hangzhou to play for a few days.”

  “Why go to Hangzhou instead of other cities?”

  Xie Shurong replied, “I want to see Leifeng Tower and only Hangzhou has it.”

  “Be honest.”

  Xie Shurong smiled. “It is because I guessed you were going home and booked a ticket to Hangzhou in advance.”

  Bai Xuan helplessly turned a blind eye to this person, not wanting to care about him anymore. He spoke seriously, “You are free to play wherever you like but I told you before, I won’t let you meet my parents for the moment…”

  Xie Shurong hung his head. “I know, I’m only your boyfriend and haven’t passed the internship yet. I’m not qualified to see your parents. I still have some self-knowledge.”

  Bai Xuan saw this person’s head getting lower and lower and felt a bit distressed. Did he hurt this person? However, the relationship between the two of them wasn’t stable at present. Bai Xuan didn’t want his parents to know about Xie Shurong too early…

  “You can rest assured that I won’t rush to your house to find trouble. I’ll just live near your house, okay? I want to see you every day…” Xie Shurong looked up at Bai Xuan, black eyes filled with pleading. The pitiful gaze instantly hit Bai Xuan’s heart.

  Bai Xuan had to lower his head and promise, “Fine, I’ll book a hotel for you.”

  A bright smile immediately appeared on Xie Shurong’s face and he rushed over to kiss Bai Xuan’s cheek. “I knew that you couldn’t bear to drive me away.”

  Bai Xuan’s face turned red with embarrassment and he glanced around. Fortunately, the passengers around him were busy sorting their luggage and didn’t notice Xie Shurong’s bold move. Bai Xuan warned Xie Shurong and Xie Shurong immediately sat down, fastening his seat belt and placing his hands on his knees. He seemed to be saying that he wouldn’t do anything.

  Bai Xuan couldn’t help smiling at the serious sitting posture. How did he meet such a living treasure?

  ***

  In the evening, the plane arrived at Hangzhou Airport. Bai Xuan took a car and went home while dropping off Xie Shurong on the way.

  Bai Xuan had chosen a hotel close to home for Xie Shurong. Once all the arrangements were made, Bai Xuan returned home and smelt something strong when walking through the door. Apparently, his parents had prepared a feast for him.

  The family sat around the table. Bai Xuan was eating the delicious food made by his mother but he was feeling uneasy. Ah Shu had just settled down at the hotel and hadn’t eaten dinner. Was he eating alone right now?

  He was too immersed in his thoughts that he didn’t hear his mother asking something until the table was knocked on. Mother Bai’s voice entered his ears, “What are you thinking about?”

  Bai Xuan came back and smiled. “I haven’t been home for a long time and your food is better than before.”

  Mother Bai smiled. “It is useless to sweet talk me. I care more about your lifelong events. You aren’t too young. Don’t think about playing games and winning championships all day. You should be looking for a boyfriend.”

  Bai Xuan touched his nose with embarrassment. “It is still early.”

  Mother Bai spoke seriously, “It isn’t too early. I see that Li Cangyu is very good. He is handsome, loyal and upright…”

  Bai Xuan immediately coughed. “I’m only friends with him. Mother, don’t have crooked thoughts.”

  “Then who do you like? My mind is open and you can rest assured that as long as you like him, I will support you. You can’t always be single.”

  His parents had been very worried when Bai Xuan told them about his sexuality. Bai Xuan was gentle when he was young and Mother Bai was nervous. She didn’t want him to commit suicide and didn’t dare exert any pressure on him.

  A long time passed and the old couple had long become used to this matter. They didn’t care as long as their son found a reliable person and was happy.

  Bai Xuan was grateful to have such enlightened parents but his mother had been concerned about his emotional matters for the past two years. From time to time, she would tell him to find a boyfriend, making him feel helpless.

  After facing his mother’s worried eyes, Bai Xuan had to vaguely say, “Cough, in fact, I actually have a boyfriend. When the time comes, I’ll bring him to see you.”

  Mother Bai was happy. “Ah, really? Then bring him home.”

  “Yes…” Bai Xuan replied in a perfunctory manner before placing a rib into his mother’s bowl, changing the topic. “Mother, you have to eat more. How have you lost weight recently?”

  ***

  The meal made Bai Xuan tense and his parent’s excessive care was a pressure on him.

  After dinner, Bai Xuan sat in his bedroom and sent a WeChat to Xie Shurong. “Have you eaten dinner?”

  Xie Shurong quickly replied. “I ate a bowl of instant noodles at the hotel.”

  His voice sounded pitiful and Bai Xuan couldn’t help feeling distressed. He quickly typed. “What’s delicious about instant noodles? Why didn’t you go outside to eat?”

  Xie Shurong sent a row of sad expressions, followed by a voice message. “I miss you.”

  Bai Xuan’s ears warmed as he listened to the voice. He hesitated for a moment before sending, “I went home and my mother asked about my feelings. In order to make her feel relieved, I said that I have a boyfriend.”

  Xie Shurong’s eyes lit up and he sat up on the bed. “Then?”

  Bai Xuan felt helpless. “She wants me to bring my boyfriend to meet her.”

  Xie Shurong excitedly rolled around in bed while continuing with the voice message. “No problem, I have been waiting to meet your mother. I will definitely perform well!”

  Bai Xuan was amused and there was some gentleness in his voice. “Then I will pick you up tomorrow. Go to sleep early. There are many mosquitoes here so remember to close your screen window.”

  After turning off his phone, Bai Xuan lay in bed and thought his decision was a bit hasty.

  On the other hand, emotional matters were complicated and the result couldn’t be predicted from the beginning. As Xie Shurong said, many people set standards when choosing a lover but the person they ended up with often didn’t necessarily meet those standards.

  For example, a girl wanted to find a boyfriend who was over 1.85 metres. Then her final husband ended up shorter at 1.8 metres. Once fate arrived, it couldn’t be blocked.

  During the time he spent with Ah Shu, Bai Xuan had been very happy overall.

  Xie Shurong was a living treasure who could always make him laugh and forget his troubles. This boyfriend might not be mature enough but he was serious and cherished every moment of their time together. Bai Xuan couldn’t deny this relationship just because Xie Shurong was young. Perhaps Ah Shu was the right person for him?

  Bai Xuan thought this and couldn’t help blushing. He was preparing to go to bed when a video request popped up on WeChat. He opened it and saw Xie Shurong with three sets of clothes side by side on the hotel’s big bed. Xie Shurong pointed to the clothes and asked, “Which one do you think I should wear? The suit looks too old and the t-shirt is too casual. Then what about the shirt? White? Blue?”

  Bai Xuan laughed. “Are you attending an interview?”

  Xie Shurong was earnest. “I am going to see your parents and naturally have to dress to make them like me. If your parents don’t like me then it will be hard for you to be caught in the middle. I don’t want to make things difficult for you. I am still in the internship. It might be acting but I have to achieve a full score.”

  Bai Xuan watched the young man seriously picking clothes and his heart was moved.

  Xie Shurong really cared for him, thus he would pay attention to Bai Xuan’s parents. The young man in front of him didn’t meet the conditions of his ideal lover but Xie Shurong loved him with a sincere heart.

  Bai Xuan smiled and said, “Wear the light blue shirt. You look handsome in it.”

  “Is that right? I think this looks good as well!” Xie Shurong immediately took off his pyjamas and put on the shirt. He took a cool pose, raised his chin and asked, “How is it? Is your boyfriend so handsome that people can’t look away?”

  Bai Xuan almost laughed. “Can’t you have any face?”

  Xie Shurong replied seriously, “If I succeed in convincing you then I can be a person who changes my skin and bark.”

  Bai Xuan, “…”


  Chapter 383 – Intern Boyfriend (2): Xie Shurong Meets the Parents

  The next day at noon, Bai Xuan went to the hotel to pick up Xie Shurong. He called from the hotel lobby to have Xie Shurong come down. The next moment, a young man strode over while wearing the blue shirt picked by Bai Xuan along with beige slim trousers. The light-coloured clothes emphasized his body wand there was a bright smile on his face.

  Despite being familiar with this person, Bai Xuan couldn’t help staring. Xie Shurong was really handsome when dressed up. His facial features were handsome and three-dimensional and he looked young and open. This look was completely in line with the protagonist of an idol drama.

  Bai Xuan stood in place and watched Xie Shurong walking towards him. Somehow, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. Before he could react, Xie Shurong hugged him and rubbed his chin against Bai Xuan’s head like a baby. “I missed you and dreamt of you last night.”

  “…” He was hugged in public and Bai Xuan’s cheeks turned hot. He gently pushed this person away and said, “Don’t make trouble. My mother made lunch so go to my house to eat.”

  “Good. Then come upstairs with me to get something.”

  “What is it?” The puzzled Bai Xuan followed only to hear, “I naturally have to buy gifts for my future parents!”

  The two people arrived at the room and opened the door. Bai Xuan couldn’t help frowning. Xie Shurong, this lazy worm, he got up in the morning and didn’t even arrange his quilt. His bed was a mess and there were several trousers piled up. It was obvious he had woken up early to match them with the shirt.

  Bai Xuan helplessly walked into the room. “Why is it so messy?”

  He moved to the bed and helped Xie Shurong clean it up. In the blink of an eye, the quilt was neatly laid and the trousers were stacked one by one in the suitcase. Within five minutes, the room had completely changed.

  Xie Shurong looked over, gentleness almost overflowing from his eyes. Bai Xuan turned his head and met Xie Shurong’s gentle gaze. His heart jumped and he looked around with embarrassment. “What are you looking at?”

  “You are particularly handsome.” Xie Shurong walked over with a smile and hugged Bai Xuan’s waist in a spoiled manner. “Looking at you cleaning up and helping me stack my clothes, I suddenly think that we’re like newlyweds…”

  “Who is married to you?” Bai Xuan was furious and regretted helping this lazy worm fold his clothes. Then Xie Shurong suddenly turned and trapped Bai Xuan between the wall and himself. He bent his head and kissed Bai Xuan, blocking all words of rebuttal.

  “Uhh…” Bai Xuan was caught off guard and tried to push this person away, only to have his hands grabbed.

  Don’t look at Xie Shurong’s usual grinning self who wasn’t serious. His strength was surprisingly and Bai Xuan was trapped by him. He was pressed to the wall and crushed by Xie Shurong’s pressure.

  The young man’s tongue passionately licked every corner of his mouth, leaving only warmth behind. Bai Xuan was breathless and his heart beat more fiercely.

  His mouth was licked by the other side’s tongue and the sensations passed along his sensitive peripheral nerves to his brain. Bai Xuan gradually gave up struggling and actively hugged Xie Shurong’s neck.

  “Yes… mmm…”

  The kiss was gentle and sweet. By the time Xie Shurong stopped, Bai Xuan’s entire face was red as his lips opened and he gasped.

  Xie Shurong smiled and licked the liquid on his lips before whispering in Bai Xuan’s ears. “How does it feel to be pressed against the wall by your boyfriend? This is how it is played in TV series. If you like it then we can try many poses later?”

  Bai Xuan glared at him. “Enough!”

  Xie Shurong was shameless as he looked down at Bai Xuan. “It isn’t enough. If we didn’t have to go to your parent’s house then I really want to eat you now.”

  Bai Xuan reacted to his meaning and blushed shyly. He slapped at Xie Shurong’s restless hands. “Can you show some shame? It is morning!”

  Xie Shurong smiled. “I don’t care. I only want you…”

  Bai Xuan was literally speechless because of this person. He simply ignored Xie Shurong and turned around. “Where are the things to be grabbed?”

  “Oh, here they are.” Xie Shurong got up and took gift boxes of various colours from the cabinet. Bai Xuan’s eyes widened with surprise. “Aren’t you being too exaggerated? Why did you buy so much?”

  “This is my first time entering your house and I must not be empty-handed? What if Mother and Father don’t like me? I should bribe them with presents first.” He spoke bluntly and didn’t look embarrassed at all.

  “Don’t call them Mother and Father…” Bai Xuan rubbed his temples as he felt himself getting a headache. He looked at the other person helplessly, “You’re younger than me and should call them Uncle and Auntie, understood?”

  “It is better to call them Young Uncle and Younger Auntie since it sounds younger!”

  “…Just do whatever.” Bai Xuan took half the boxes and went out. Xie Shurong immediately grabbed the other half. The two of them left the hotel and walked a few hundred metres to the community where Bai Xuan’s house was located.

  \r \r \r

  ***

  Mother Bai was cooking in the kitchen. She asked while cutting vegetables, “What type of boyfriend do you think our son will bring back?”

  Father Bai was serious. “How can I guess? Our son likes him so don’t worry about it.”

  “Yes, our son has been obedient and sensible since he was a child. He must have his own thoughts on emotional matters. Although he can’t bring back a wife but as long as he is happy, I can feel relieved.” Mother Bai paused before adding, “I’m just afraid his boyfriend isn’t sincere.”

  “Wait and see. Bai Xuan’s vision shouldn’t be bad.”

  The two people were chatting when the sound of the key in the door was heard. Bai Xuan’s parents rushed out of the kitchen and were stunned when they saw the person behind Bai Xuan.

  The man was taller than Bai Xuan. He was very handsome and had a sunny smile but he was only in his early 20s. Was such a young and handsome guy reliable?

  Before Bai Xuan could speak, Xie Shurong took the initiative to go forward and politely bowed. “Hello, Uncle and Auntie! My name is Xie Shurong and I’m Bai Xuan’s boyfriend. This is the first time we’re meeting and I didn’t know what to bring. Thus, I bought some supplements. I hope that Auntie and Uncle will be in good health.”

  Mother Bai was flattered as she received the many high-end gift boxes. She smiled and said, “You are very polite. Why bring so many things? Come and sit down.”

  Xie Shurong quietly walked over and Mother Bai glanced at her husband. The two people went to the kitchen to serve the dishes and she wondered in a worried manner, “This child is quite handsome and polite. Do you think that Bai Xuan specifically invited an actor to reassure us?”

  Father Bai frowned. “You are watching too many TV dramas! How can our son find an actor to fool us? Don’t you know this person? He is on the same team as our son and plays the swordsman. The one named Shu!

  Mother Bai suddenly realized. “Ah, no wonder why he is so familiar. It turns out to be our son’s partner. Then I’m relieved. At the very least, a person on the same team isn’t a lie. He is just… a bit younger.”

  Father Bai told her, “Isn’t it good to be younger? A younger person’s mind is more simple and easily disciplined. An older and deeply experienced person might not be easily held by our son.”

  “That’s right.” Mother Bai was completely relieved.

  Previously, they watched the matches and there weren’t many shots directed at the participants. Even then, it was only side shots.

  Now they saw the real person at a close distance and found this Shu was much better than the TV. His figure was good, he was tall, handsome and he matched well with Bai Xuan. Mother Bai was very satisfied. Once the cooked dishes were on the table, she gave a bowl of stewed pork ribs to Xie Shurong and let him eat more.

  “Too delicious!” Xie Shurong tasted a pork rib and immediately smiled. “Auntie, do you specialize in cooking? This dish is better than the chef of a five star hotel.”

  Mother Bai smiled. “You are really sweet. How can my dishes be so good?”

  “Auntie, don’t be humble. It is really delicious!”

  Mother Bai was very happy about being praised. The more she saw, the more she felt this young and handsome person was very cute. She couldn’t help giving him a piece of chicken wings. “Try this!”

  Xie Shurong praised while eating, “Good, delicious!”

  Bai Xuan sat next to them and couldn’t even insert himself…

  Xie Shurong was a person who loved food and his mouth was sweet. Mother Bai was quickly coaxed by him and continued to give Xie Shurong dishes. She willingly fed all the food she made to Xie Shurong.

  Xie Shurong also wasn’t polite. He swept away all the food and was full of praise when eating.

  Originally it was expected that the first meeting would be awkward but Xie Shurong’s mouth was sweet and he was extraordinarily warm, like everyone was family.

  Mother Bai obviously liked him a lot and Father Bai didn’t say anything but his eyes showed his appreciation.

  Bai Xuan saw this scene and finally felt relieved. Xie Shurong was often childish and naive but he was reliable in key moments, knowing how to curry favour with elders. In such a short period of time, he actually got the goodwill of Bai Xuan’s parents. Bai Xuan had to say that this guy’s mouth was very important when talking to people.

  After the meal, Xie Shurong took the initiative to stand up and help Mother Bai wash the dishes. He rolled up his sleeves and said, “Auntie, I will help you with the dishes. I am especially talented at washing dishes. I used to wash dishes for Bai Xuan when we were with the team.”

  Bai Xuan heard this and almost slipped. In the past, every time it came to washing dishes then a spoiled man would hold onto him, complaining, “Can I not wash the dishes? I hate washing dishes.” As a result, today he became active in helping to wash the dishes. Black became white. Xie Shurong, can you not have such a comic dialogue?

  At Bai Xuan’s eyes, Xie Shurong just blinked in a shameless manner. He ignored Bai Xuan’s speechless contempt and followed Mother Bai into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

  Mother Bai loved the ‘hardworking’ young guy who ‘liked housework.’ She saw his hands tidying up the dishes and laughed. “Now there are very few young people who like to do housework. Ah Shu, you are really sensible.”

  Xie Shurong smiled. “Bai Xuan’s cooking must be inherited from you? His food is especially delicious. I can’t cook so I can only help him wash the dishes.”

  “Hmm.” Mother Bai thought about it and asked, “How long have you been with Bai Xuan?”

  “It’s been almost a year. I chased him at first and he didn’t like me much. I was younger than him and not mature enough. I always felt I wasn’t worthy of him.” Xie Shurong paused before speaking seriously, “Auntie, rest assured. I will try my best to match him. I am younger than him but I really like him.”

  Mother Bai was completely moved and patted Xie Shurong’s shoulder. “Don’t say that. Bai Xuan was blessed to meet you.”

  “Auntie, I was blessed to meet him. He has a good personality and temper. I have never seen such a kind person. It would be nice to be with him all the time…”

  Mother Bai smiled. “Yes, our Bai Xuan is single-minded when it comes to feelings. You just have to treat him well and he will certainly treat you well.”

  “I think so too!”

  ***

  They finished washing the dishes and Mother Bai’s smile was brighter than before. She was obviously very happy with Xie Shurong and took the initiative to cut an apple for him. Know that even Bai Xuan didn’t receive this treatment at home.

  She was going to have Xie Shurong stay for dinner but Bai Xuan was worried that Xie Shurong would speak nonsense to his parents and told her, “Mother, I will take Ah Shu out to eat tonight. He hasn’t eaten authentic Hangzhou food.”

  Mother Bai immediately nodded in agreement. “Okay, take him to taste west lake vinegar fish and dongpo meat.”

  Xie Shurong stood up. “Auntie, I’ll go first. I’ll see you later!”

  Mother Bai opened her mouth, “Wait, Auntie has something to give you.” She headed to the bedroom and took out a delicate box, carefully handing it to Xie Shurong. “This is for you. Later, you and Bai Xuan should get along well. Understood?”

  Bai Xuan’s eyes were as big as a cow. “Mother, this…”

  Xie Shurong realized this must be a very meaningful thing and didn’t wait for Bai Xuan to oppose it. He immediately accepted and responded seriously, “Auntie, rest assured, I will be good to him for the rest of my life!”

  Bai Xuan, “…”

  ***

  The two people left and walked side by side. Xie Shurong took out the box that Mother Bai gave him and there was actually a valuable jade pendant inside.

  Xie Shurong’s eyes lit up and he glanced over at Bai Xuan. “Is this a family heirloom?”

  “No.”

  “Then what is it? Based on Mother’s cautious attitude, it definitely isn’t an ordinary gift.”

  His way of calling Mother had become smoother. Bai Xuan was too lazy to care about it. After a moment of silence, he touched his nose in an embarrassed manner. “Cough, this is what my mother bought when I was born. She was going to give it to… her daughter-in-law in the future.”

  Xie Shurong glanced at the pendant with surprise. Then he reacted to what happened and smiled brightly. He turned to hug Bai Xuan. “It seems that Mother has recognized me. Then can I be your wife?”

  Bai Xuan blushed and gently pushed him. “What wife…”

  Xie Shurong brazenly kissed Bai Xuan. “Then will you be my wife?”

  Bai Xuan’s face became redder and he reprimanded, “Don’t talk nonsense!”

  Xie Shurong immediately changed his words. “Can I become your official boyfriend. Based on my performance, can I get a promotion and a raise?”

  Bai Xuan was helpless. “Let go first.”

  “If Boss doesn’t let me obtain full status then I won’t let you go.”

  “You…”

  “It has been almost a year since I entered the company and there are three months left on the internship.” Xie Shurong placed his chin on Bai Xuan’s shoulder and acted petulantly. “I want to be your official boyfriend. I don’t want to worry every day. Let me be a full time member. I will show a good performance. Don’t wait for the year’s deadline and let’s continue together.”

  Bai Xuan was softened by him and couldn’t help saying, “That… okay.”

  Xie Shurong heard this and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. They became particularly deep and the petulant person holding Bai Xuan became a man.

  He knew that Bai Xuan still wasn’t sure about their relationship and had no confidence spending the rest of his life with Xie Shurong. Still, it didn’t matter. One day, he would let Bai Xuan put down all the worries in his heart and really fall in love with Xie Shurong.

  Xie Shurong placed Mother Bai’s gift in his pocket and happily held the person in his arms.
