Chapter 75 Chapter 075 “Since we’re here,…
Under the table, in a position that the camera couldn't capture, Nan Fei reached out and gently tapped Yan Nanxing's thigh, signaling with his eyes that the other party should be more restrained.
Fortunately, there are limits to playing around. Yan Nanxing chuckled and turned back to continue chatting with everyone.
Just then, someone asked about the three-person gathering yesterday. Actually, the livestream had already started with people constantly commenting on it. Nan Fei pretended not to notice and avoided the question, but Yan Nanxing read it out word for word: "Why were there only three of us at the gathering yesterday? Why weren't the other three included..."
Nan Fei glanced at him, feeling a little nervous. Although they had already agreed on a statement, she still felt a little uncomfortable asking him to "lie," so she just watched Yan Nanxing chatting and laughing.
"Why don't you invite everyone over? It's just a coincidence we met because we have a variety show taping today and our schedules overlap slightly, so we just decided to get together on a whim. Sister Tang and the others all have their own work, so it's just the three of us."
This explanation was reasonable and natural. It acknowledged the trending content, and on the other hand, it talked about it openly with everyone, which immediately made people like it more. The audience understood it and quickly dropped the topic and started talking about other things.
After just a few words, there was some movement on the screen. Tao Xi and Shen Yuzhe appeared with several plates, and they put them away for a long time.
"Hey, you're back." Yan Nanxing helped to take the things and arranged them neatly in front of the screen. In an instant, the first thing that caught the eye was not the glamorous guests, but the desserts and drinks that looked very delicious.
"You said dessert, and it really is just dessert?" After reading it, Yan Nanxing couldn't help but comment, "You've got a sweet tooth, huh? What if you can't finish it later?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. There are so many of us here!"
Tao Xi sat down with a smile, and then turned his eyes, as if he had just realized that the live broadcast had begun: "Oh my God, have we been out for so long?"
As she spoke, she picked out the most beautiful shaped jelly paste and placed it close to the camera: "In that case, let's eat first!"
Sure enough, after seeing Tao Xi coming back, the topic that had just been suppressed began to stir again. No one said it directly, but the guidance was very strong.
[Where did Taotao go for dinner yesterday? Was it as sumptuous as today?]
[Taotao actually hangs out with friends quite often in private. Do you have fun?]
More and more people were talking about this matter in the barrage. Tao Xi quietly turned his head and looked at the two culprits not far away, with a smile on his face but full of confusion.
They even deliberately delayed their time and came back late! How come Yan Nanxing and the others haven't figured this out yet?
I didn’t even rehearse the lyrics with her in advance!
Tao Xi's request was fruitless, and his smile was a little off. He could only start to talk nonsense: "We had lunch at Sister Nanxing's house. He cooked it himself. It's true that beauties have good aesthetic tastes. The plating is very artistic."
The deceitful Yan Nanxing didn't cook at all, and as they were pressed for time, they just ordered takeout.
After a lot of hassle, he came up with a convincing story. Yan Nanxing even added "supplementary details" to finally calm the audience's curiosity. Tao Xi was indeed a regular on variety shows. Even Shen Yuzhe believed his story and sighed beside him, "What a pity! In fact, if you had called on me, I could have postponed some of the work."
The more Nan Fei listened, the lower her head fell, fearing that she would not be able to hold back her laughter and ruin this beautiful lie.
Yan Nanxing kindly handed over a small cake and said, "Take this. Tao Xi highly recommends it."
"Well, I'm not..."
Just as she was about to say that she didn't like sweet things, Yan Nanxing interrupted her: "This is not cream, it's jelly. There's too much. Please help Tao Xi with it."
Nan Fei was slightly startled, then took it obediently.
He has always disliked the dense and sticky texture of cream, but simply saying that he doesn't like cream sounds strange, so he has always claimed to the outside world that he doesn't like sweets. This fact is even written in the encyclopedia introduction. But in terms of taste alone, he naturally prefers sweet.
When did Yan Nanxing discover it?
Some people in the barrage also noticed this. Nan Fei's fans were complaining about how they were stuffing him with things he didn't like, but the next second they saw their idol eating seriously, and he seemed quite happy.
[Oh my god~ Is this what you mean by not liking it?]
[Well, maybe I don’t like it, but even if I don’t like something, I still have to consider who sent it to me~]
Seeing that the entire screen was almost occupied by CP fans, Yan Nanxing suddenly fell into a brief thought.
A few of them interacted with the barrage of comments from time to time. When Tang Jingyun and the others came back and everyone was present, the younger generations stopped playing around and officially entered business mode.
Tonight's live broadcast is better than any previous one, and the attrition rate is much lower than before. The six guests basically do not broadcast live. "Taoyuan Cottage" provides a platform for fans to interact. Even those who don't like to watch live broadcasts on weekdays have rushed in. It is difficult for the traffic to be low.
Seeing everyone's reluctance to leave, I even turned a blind eye and extended the live broadcast time by half an hour.
The final scene ended abruptly with a heart-warming farewell. The camera was turned off, the equipment was withdrawn, and everyone relaxed.
Facing the camera for long periods of time and needing to maintain an image the entire time is incredibly tiring. Even variety show hosts like Tao Xi collapsed. "Oh my god, I don't know how those influencers who livestream every day manage to get through this. It's livestreaming, and even the slightest mistake in saying something is unacceptable. There's no chance for editing or reshooting."
As soon as the key words were mentioned, everyone couldn't help but look at Yan Nanxing.
When we were talking about personal topics just now, Yan Nanxing mentioned that he recently opened a short video account and would probably do live broadcasts on it later. To a certain extent, it was also a new job for the internet celebrity.
However, the wording used in the words was to make a break with his old identity. If you think about it carefully, Yan Nanxing has never directly admitted it, so everyone was very considerate and did not mention it.
Being stared at by five pairs of eyes, Yan Nanxing suddenly figured it out: "Why, I haven't done a live broadcast in many years. In the early days, live broadcasting was not the assembly line project it is now. I don't know what high-intensity work is like."
Tao Xi was stunned: "You used to do live broadcasts?"
Yan Nanxing blinked: "Isn't my identity as a 'faded internet celebrity' known to the entire internet?"
Everyone took a breath.
"But you... don't you want to admit it?" Tao Xi tried his best to choose his words, fearing that he would accidentally touch his sore spot. Unexpectedly, Yan Nanxing showed a slightly confused look.
"I didn't expect you to notice this." Seeing that everyone was carefully protecting his idea, Yan Nanxing smiled and said, "After being offline for two years and then coming back, although it can be considered a coincidence, there is still a chance to use a real name. No one would want to be associated with an online name again, right?"
What he said made sense, but the two more perceptive ladies always felt that something was wrong.
Nan Fei stole a glance at Yan Nanxing's expression. He seemed calm, but the smile in his eyes gradually faded. So, for once, he took the initiative to interrupt: "Let's not talk about this for now. It's getting late. We have to hurry back after dinner."
It takes at least an hour and a half to get back from the county town by bus, and by the time they finish eating, it might take forever.
When they realized that this was indeed the case, they stopped chatting. Everyone was exhausted after a night of work, so they packed up and went back to rest early.
Returning to this familiar house, I felt as if I were in another world in this bedroom, which I had just lived in last week.
The memories of the past few days are too vivid. I only remembered it in a daze, and it seemed that the change happened last week, in this place.
When Yan Nanxing came out of the shower, he saw Nan Fei sitting on the bed, in a daze for some reason. He went up to him and rubbed his face affectionately: "What are you thinking about?"
Nan Fei blinked as she came back to her senses and said for no apparent reason, "I was wondering if my fever had subsided."
It was a nonsensical sentence, but Yan Nanxing understood what he wanted to say for the first time. He chuckled softly, but continued along the line of thought: "If you want me to take care of you, you don't have to be sick."
"You've been taking good care of me these past few days, haven't you?" Yan Nanxing leaned forward slightly and whispered in his ear, "Do you want me to help you bathe today too?"
In an instant, the topic became restricted, and Nan Fei no longer had the energy to recall it. She pursed her lips and pushed the person in front of her away: "I'll go by myself."
Then he hurried into the bathroom.
Yan Nanxing was not in a hurry. He waited for the sound of water to be heard for a while before reminding her, "You didn't bring in your change of clothes."
The sound of water stopped.
After a while, the bathroom door opened slightly, and Nan Fei stretched out a hand: "Help me get it, thank you."
"Oh, what's the point of saying thank you? I'm going to be sad if you say that."
Nan Fei was silent for a moment when she didn't receive anything. She then said with a stiff upper lip: "Help me get my pajamas, boyfriend."
Yan Nanxing felt great, from head to toe.
Although this is not what I want to hear, Nan Fei's personality is not suitable for being forced. Occasionally giving in can exchange for Yan Nanxing's obedience, which is quite worthwhile.
Nan Fei breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the cotton cloth stuffed into his empty hands. Just as he was about to pull himself out, he was suddenly grabbed. Realizing what Yan Nanxing was trying to do, he widened his eyes and said, "Wait, wait, this isn't the place!"
It was too late. Yan Nanxing successfully entered the bathroom through the tiny gap in the door. Nan Fei subconsciously retreated and almost slipped.
Fortunately, Yan Nanxing held his hand tightly without loosening his grip and managed to pull him back, thus avoiding a tragedy.
The space in the small building is really small, and the crowded bathroom accommodates two adult men at once, making it seem like they can hardly breathe smoothly.
Nan Fei paused for a moment and stammered, "You go out... I, I want to take a shower."
"How can I feel at ease leaving you here alone?" Yan Nanxing said with a tone of pity and distress, "Look, if I hadn't been here just now, you would have fallen."
Nan Fei: ...
If it weren't for him, he would have finished washing by now!
Yan Nanxing remained unmoved. With her clasped hands, she grabbed Nan Fei's clothes and used a little force to threaten him to obey her.
Yan Nanxing curled her lips and chuckled: "Since we're here, let's take a shower together?"
