Chapter 25 Summer Sleep, Has Anyone Ever Said You're Cute?
Zhu Ziqi never imagined things would develop this way—Chang Yi had been kidnapped! She was furious, but dared not say anything because of the ubiquitous cameras.
Zhang Yuno was also surprised, after all, it was all because of her. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face: "Piggy, let's team up."
The theme song for Zhu Ziqi's debut TV series was sung by Zhang Yuno, which is how the two met. Zhu Ziqi knew everything about Zhang Yuno's background.
This singer-songwriter is a true grassroots artist who faced many setbacks in his early years. It was only after the rise of the internet and his live-streamed performances that he gradually gained public attention. He's a classic example of someone whose personality isn't particularly appealing, and whose songs are popular while he himself remains relatively unknown.
"You?" Zhu Ziqi glanced at Zhang Yuno with a mocking look, then turned back, took his arm, and put on her signature sweet smile. "Why are those two guys so lovey-dovey? It's so annoying..."
Her expression changed so quickly that Zhang Yuno was stunned for a moment, even wondering if she was seeing things.
The comments section was already buzzing with discussion:
[Chang Yi seems to be closer to Zhu Zhu, so why is he running off with Xia Mian?]
You can only play pranks when you have a good relationship with someone; you can't refuse from ordinary colleagues, and refusing might lead to resentment.
[However, Xia Mian initially wanted to team up with Zhang Yuno, but for some reason, whether she didn't understand or didn't see it, Xia Mian had no choice but to find Chang Yi instead.]
Chang Yi and Zhu Zhu have such great chemistry! I'm already shipping Zhu Yuan Yi Run!
Why are there CP fans everywhere? Aren't you guys bored? Our Piggy is here to solve a mystery, not to participate in a dating reality show.
[I've ordered it; this intelligent and beautiful woman doesn't engage in CP (couple pairing) hype.]
Ten minutes later, the dance party started as scheduled, and the travelers formed couples and danced to the music.
Chang Yi led Xia Mian to the edge of the dance floor, intending to practice a few moves, but he was surprised and exclaimed "Eh!" after Xia Mian started to move.
Xia Mian debuted in a web series, so he probably can't dance, but his starting movements were quite standard and beautiful, showing that he is an expert.
Chang Yi then straightened up, bowed slightly to Xia Mian in an inviting gesture, and the two walked hand in hand into the center of the dance floor.
After the dance ended, while waiting for the next song, Chang Yi praised in a low voice: "Bro, you danced really well, much better than me."
What a joke! He's taken etiquette classes for over a decade and started attending various parties with his mother when he was three. Ballroom dancing is practically a racial talent for him.
“Of course,” Xia Mian couldn’t help but open her screen, “but your hip-hop is amazing. Your movements are clear and you don’t rely on them. You’re on par with professional dancers. I need to learn from you in this area.”
Chang Yi was even more shocked: "You can dance hip-hop?"
"It's a tiny bit worse than ballroom dancing."
This person was anything but modest. Chang Yi politely replied, "Then we can dance together sometime."
Xia Mian looked distressed: "I don't have a chance. Sigh, I'm just too unpopular."
[What's wrong with the nobleman...? He actually spoke the truth.]
But I don't dislike him; I even feel a little sorry for him.
[Xia Mian's demeanor clearly indicates someone who practices dance regularly. I studied ballroom dancing for a few years, and I'm ashamed to admit I'm not as good as her.]
Not many people can earn Xiao Yi's approval. Keep it up, Xia Mian!
[I have a dangerous idea, Chang Yi. Xia Mian.CP]
[This is indeed dangerous; please take it back immediately.]
[CPs can be down-to-earth, but try not to be too absurd, right?]
[Hilarious! They'll try to associate any celebrity with our brother.]
[CPF, get out of here!!!]
There was a small argument between die-hard fans, toxic fans, and casual viewers in the live chat, but things were quite harmonious in real life. Chang Yi was speechless after Xia Mian's comment, and he lowered his head, struggling to hold back his laughter.
After laughing, he secretly turned off the radio: "Xia Mian, has anyone ever told you that you're cute?"
When they first met, Xia Mian called Chang Yi "bro," and Chang Yi continued to call him "bro" afterward. This was the first time Xia Mian had ever heard Chang Yi call him by his name.
"You can't describe me as cute," Xia Mian disagreed. "You should describe me as handsome."
"You're handsome."
Thanks!
At the other end, Zhang Yuno held Zhu Ziqi's hand. The two seemed to have a good relationship, but they lacked chemistry and their dance steps were always out of sync.
When it was time to step back, Zhang Yuno retreated in rhythm, while Zhu Ziqi was looking at Chang Yi and was a little distracted. He didn't keep up and was pulled by Zhang Yuno, causing him to stumble and bump into a couple of tourists next to him.
"...Who is it that dares to bump into this superstar!" Zhu Ziqi dared not get angry, so he could only vent his anger by using his identity in the dungeon.
"Oh my God, you were the one who bumped into me first, Baron!"
Haha, I ran into someone I know.
Zhu Ziqi glanced at the camera, shut his mouth, and said nothing more.
