34. Official Announcement

(Timeline: GSS group contract expires, Mi Xi's personal studio is established)

The two-year contract period for the GSS limited group has successfully concluded, marking the end of an era in the Chinese entertainment industry and the beginning of a new one. The members have returned to their original companies, either solo or transitioning to new roles, each thriving.

Mi Xi, once the absolute center of attention, has undeniable popularity and talent. After his contract expired, he did not renew his contract with Xingshuo. Instead, with the overt and covert support of Ji Ye, he established his own personal studio and completely took control of his career.

The press conference for the studio's launch was grand and successful. Mi Xi handled the event with grace and composure, already possessing the demeanor of a superstar. That evening, the studio held a small celebration party, bringing together friends from the industry and team members.

The party was in full swing, and Mi Xi was surrounded by people toasting her. Although most of the toasts were juice, her face had turned a faint red, and her peach blossom eyes shimmered under the lights, making her even more alluring. Ji Ye, as the "behind-the-scenes boss," was also in attendance. He sat on a sofa in the corner a little way away, but his eyes never left the luminous object in the center of the crowd.

He watched Mi Xi navigate the world with ease, watched her occasional tipsy glances, and felt his heart gently scratched by a feather. For two years, he had carefully kept this relationship underwater, watching his little fish blossom on stage, perfect in front of the camera, only to assert his ownership in the shadows, where no one knew.

This secret possession was sometimes exciting, but more often it was an indescribable feeling of suffocation. He wanted to stand beside him openly and honestly, wanting everyone to know that this dazzling person belonged to him, Ji Ye.

The party was drawing to a close, and the guests were leaving one after another. Mi Xi saw off the last guest, rubbed his swollen temples, and walked towards Ji Ye, who had been waiting for him.

"Tired?" Ji Ye stood up, naturally took the coat from his hand, and put his other hand around his waist.

"Yeah." Mi Xi leaned against him, letting down all her guard, her voice filled with weariness, "It's finally over."

Back at the penthouse, Mi Xi kicked off her shoes and walked barefoot on the carpet. She wanted to get a glass of water, but Ji Ye hugged her from behind.

"Xixi." Ji Ye's voice was low, with a hint of unusual seriousness.

"Hmm?" Mi Xi tilted her head slightly.

Ji Ye was silent for a few seconds, as if he had made up his mind. He turned him around to face him and looked at him with burning eyes: "Let's make it public."

Mi Xi was stunned for a moment, the weariness in his eyes instantly dissipating a little. He looked at Ji Ye, but didn't answer immediately. They both knew what it meant to make their relationship public. Countless glances, discussions, even malicious intent, would ensue. It could affect his career and Ji Ye's background.

"Have you thought it through?" Mi Xi's voice was very soft.

"I've been thinking about this for a long time." Ji Ye held his face, stroking his delicate skin with his thumb. "I don't want to hide it anymore. I want to walk with you openly and honestly, and tell everyone that you are mine."

His eyes were overbearing, yet held a subtle pleading. This Crown Prince, who always controlled everything, showed such uncertainty for the first time regarding Mi Xi.

Mi Xi looked at him and suddenly smiled. That smile was like the first melting of ice and snow, the blooming of spring flowers, breathtakingly beautiful. He stood on tiptoe and pressed a light but firm kiss to Ji Ye's lips.

"good."

Just one word made Ji Ye's heart fall completely, and huge joy exploded in his chest like fireworks.

The next day, at ten o'clock in the morning.

While all the media and fans were still digesting the news of the establishment of Mi Xi Studio, two Weibo posts released almost simultaneously, like nuclear bombs dropped into a calm lake, instantly detonated the entire network.

@Jiye v:

[My. @Mi Xiv]

[Image: Two interlocked hands, each with a different-sized men's diamond ring on the ring finger. Morning sunlight filters through a gap in the curtains onto a disheveled bed sheet.]

@Mi Xiv:

[Yeah, his. @嵇野v]

[Image: Another angle of the same scene, focusing on the two people's clasped hands and their rings. Mi Xi's smaller ring gleams brightly in the sunlight.]

Explode! Explode! Explode!

Weibo server crashed instantly!

The top ten hot searches were instantly dominated by related terms!

#Ji Ye Mi Xi official announcement#

#Miximy#

#Jiyehis#

#Mixi Ring#

#Mixi Studio was officially announced on the second day of its establishment#

[Holy shit! Oh my god! Am I blind?!]

[Officially announcing it right away?! Are you that brave?!]

So was yesterday's independence a dowry?

[Ahhh blessings! The top CP of looks is locked! ]

[Isn't this a powerful combination? Prince Xingshuo and a top star!]

[I told you there was something wrong with them! It's been wrong since the talent show!]

Fan circles were shaken, with some expressing their well wishes, others heartbroken, and others simply watching the spectacle unfold. Media outlets frantically called both studios, only to receive the unanimous response, "Thanks for your attention, but we can't comment further on personal matters."

The two people at the center of the storm are now leisurely staying in the apartment.

Mi Xi curled up on the sofa, scrolling through the comment section of Weibo, which had finally recovered after being paralyzed. She looked at the various comments that were either shocked or full of blessings, without much expression on her face. She would only chuckle out loud when she saw an interesting comment occasionally.

Ji Ye sat next to him, his arms wrapped possessively around him, his chin resting on the top of his head, staring at the screen of his phone.

"Do you regret it?" Ji Ye asked in a low voice.

Mi Xi put down her phone, turned her head, and took the initiative to kiss him: "What do you think?"

He had been waiting for this day, waiting for him to be strong enough, strong enough to ignore the rumors, to stand by his side calmly, and to accept everyone's scrutiny.

And now, the time has come.

The sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the entire room, enveloping the two people hugging each other, warm and dazzling.

From then on, under the starlight, he was his Mi Xi.

In the sea of ​​people, he is his Ji Ye.

The official announcement is not the end, but the true and upright beginning of their story.

After a desperate struggle, the Weibo server finally managed to return to normal. The hashtag #Jiye Mixi Official Announcement# was now followed by a glaring red "explosion," far surpassing even the news of Mixi's studio launch yesterday.

The comment section was completely overwhelmed, with thousands of new comments being added every second.

[My mom asked me why I was kneeling down to browse my phone!]

I've been obsessed with it since the first GSS performance, but I never thought I'd see the official announcement one day! I'm so happy!

[Wow, my baby Mi was taken away like this (even though he's a prince and very handsome) but my heart is still broken! ]

What is this? Is the entertainment industry's princess literature translating into reality?

[The above is the literature about the prince being captured by a beautiful woman! ]

【Blessings! Both of you must be 99! ​​】

In addition to fans and passers-by, blessings from friends in the circle also arrived at the battlefield.

The first one to show up was Wuyo, who is always at the forefront of eating melons.

@雾呦_YoYo: !!!!!! Finally!!! @嵇野v remember to treat us! @宓兮v you're awesome! (fox wagging its tail like crazy.jpg)

Following closely behind was Chu Qingling, whose words were still concise but his blessings were sincere.

@Chu Qingling: Blessings. @Ji Yev @Mi Xiv

Ruan Xu was so excited that she sent several messages in a row.

@Ranxu: Idol! Be happy! ! Bless you forever! @Mixiv

@Ranxu: (Repost from Ji Ye's Weibo) Ji Shao! You must treat our idol well! Otherwise... otherwise I will never let you go! (super fierce.jpg)

Even Cici, who runs a dance studio in France, sent a French blessing and attached a cute photo of Ranran holding a card with the word "Love" on it.

The two WeChat groups, [Family Communication Group] and [Zhanjianxing (One is Indispensable)], have long been flooded with news.

【Swordsmanship (Essential)】

Wuyou: [Screenshot from Weibo] I told you! They've been secretly doing it for a long time!

Ruan Xu: Wow, I’m so touched! My idol is finally with the person he loves!

Chu Qingling: Yes.

Mi Xi: Thank you everyone. [Red envelope]

Wuyou:!!!! We must grab the prince's wedding money!

【Family Communication Group】

Wuyou: @Jiye Red Packet! Huge red packet!

Pei Yu: Congratulations.

Xie Sui: +1, congratulations.

Ji Ye: [huge red envelope]

Xie Sui: Tsk, that’s quite reasonable.

Pei Yu:.

Mi Xi kept a faint smile on her lips as she watched the blessings pop up on her phone. Ji Ye was more direct. He asked his assistant to write down all the blessings and any that he liked and make arrangements for them.

Away from the hustle and bustle, Ji Ye booked a candlelight dinner at the rooftop restaurant, which was their first real public date as a couple.

After dinner, the two did not go home directly. Instead, they went to the terrace of another apartment owned by Ji Ye, which had a great view of the entire city at night. The night breeze was cool, and Ji Ye hugged Mi Xi from behind, looking at the dazzling city lights below.

"Are you scared?" Ji Ye asked in a low voice. After going public, there would inevitably be more attention and scrutiny.

Mi Xi leaned back in his arms, shook her head, and said in a calm but firm voice: "With you, there is nothing to be afraid of."

He paused and added, "Besides, I now have enough ability to face everything."

Ji Ye chuckled softly and hugged him tighter. Yes, his little Yu'er was no longer the trainee who needed his protection, but a towering tree that could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

At this moment, brilliant fireworks suddenly rose from the direction of the city square and exploded in the night sky, forming a brief but extremely clear pattern - a crown and a star.

That was Ji Ye's handiwork. In this grand yet fleeting way, he silently declared to this city, to everyone: his star deserved the brightest coronation in the world.

Mi Xi looked up at the fleeting but extremely shocking fireworks, with countless lights reflected in his eyes. He turned around and took the initiative to kiss Ji Ye.

"I love so much."

He likes this grand official announcement, he likes this exclusive romance, and he likes the man next to him who gives him all his favor and confidence.

The night is gentle and love is surging.

Their story, from being an undercurrent to being known to everyone, has finally reached the most bright and upright chapter.
