Chapter 21: As if… coaxing me.
At the same time, on the 51st floor, Qu Xiaoran choked on a mouthful of coke in his throat and started coughing violently. After he somewhat recovered, he called Xie You.
“Hello.”[1]
“You’re not good! No, I’m not good!” Qu Xiaoran coughed several times, struggling, and said hoarsely, “Xie Xiaoyou, tell me, you have been hacked! Right!”
Xie You’s voice was calm, “No.”
Qu Xiaoran patted his chest heavily, feeling that he was about to lose his temper, “Then what’s with the post you posted on Weibo? Don’t you care a lot about your Nian Nian? Could it be that this young master has bad eyesight?
No, no, Ding Zhaoxian has almost been fooled by you. Is there some kind of twist? Otherwise, how can you go to Weibo to brush your sense of existence——brush… brush your sense of existence? “
WTF!
Qu Xiaoran was blessed with a bright mind, and within a second, his brain turned rapidly, and he asked dryly, “You, the one you told me about before, who you have known for three years, are not familiar with, and wants to get closer, is he Yu Nian?”
Xie You didn’t answer for a few seconds, and after a while, he made a low “um”.
Qu Xiaoran slapped himself on the forehead and his eyes widened. He was so shocked that he could already imagine Xie You’s shy and blushing face! He shook his head sharply, driving this collapsed image out of his mind and trying to make himself rational.
“Wait, let’s talk about it first, why did you come to me?”
Xie You: “See him.”
Qu Xiaoran: “……”
“Fuck, this young master was so emotional, thinking that you suddenly cared about me!”
Xie You: “No.”
Qu Xiaoran, who felt that his heart had suffered a critical blow, tried his best to set his mind right, “Then can you tell me, what’s the purpose of your Weibo post?” His tone was a little cautious and curious, but also afraid that he would be frightened when the mystery was revealed.
Then he heard Xie You reply, “I’m on the hot search with him.”
“Ah, yes, I saw it,” Qu Xiaoran thought, I’m not blind. Of course, I saw you both on the hot search side by side, “So… wait a minute!”
Qu Xiaoran, relying on the little tacit understanding he had cultivated with Xie You when growing up, quickly ruled out the dog-blooded speculation of three years of asking for nothing because of love and hatred and asked:
“Then… you, don’t tell me you did it because, before solving the matter with Ding Zhaoxian and a few other old foxes, you can’t be close to Yu Nian for a while, and you were afraid that he has too many friends and will completely forget about you, so you simply… find a unique and unusual way to brush your sense of existence?”
Xie You said nothing.
But Qu Xiaoran knew that he had guessed right!
He took a deep breath and continued, “Then, you… you are so wicked. Ding Zhaoxian and the others won’t be sure whether you really hate Yu Nian, and they don’t have so much time and energy to pay attention to who Yu Nian is. They will be relieved, after all, you are not doing your job right now. You are either raising black market fighters, watching underground boxing matches, gambling money or stalking stars. Were they happy after hearing the news?”
“Yes.”
He looked at the rising topic and stammered, “Then… you sacrificed yourself and worked diligently, just brought a wave of popularity to Yu Nian?”
Xie You said “um”.
Uh-huh!
“He is so good, as long as someone notices him, they will definitely like him.” Xie You also used the terminology he recently learned, “I will be his fan,” he continued, “I like to hear him sing, I’ll buy his albums, and go to his concerts.”
Qu Xiaoran was indifferent, “Oh.”
Qu Xiaoran stared straight at the ceiling, thinking about it carefully, “But… it doesn’t really seem to be a problem! Paralyzed the opponent, protected Yu Nian, helped Yu Nian to gain popularity, and let Yu Nian notice so that he’ll remember you. Four birds with one stone!”
“Right.”
“Right?” Qu Xiaoran held his forehead, feeling very tired. He had a sense of fear that his logic was at stake, and he was about to be led astray by Xie You!
“…Then have you ever thought that Yu Nian will be unhappy when he sees your real name hacking him?”
Xie You was silent for a few seconds, then said seriously, “I will work hard.”
Qu Xiaoran didn’t know what to say anymore.
If he was Yu Nian, he would probably think that Xie You was a neurotic!
Hanging up the phone, he was really worried about Xie You’s dark future, so he turned over the comments on Xie You’s Weibo with a blank face, and as a result, he flipped through and found that Xie You seemed to have registered a trumpet[2] account to comment.
What kind of shit is this?
[Aaaahhhh, my husband has posted on Weibo! Let’s celebrate with fireworks!! This time it was not a German financial paper, nor was it a chart with various lines intertwined! I can understand my husband’s Weibo! Weeping with joy!”
User 7341509: [Not your husband.]
[God, I’m chasing after Yu Nian! I like his voice so much! Gosh, my husband and I will have a common topic! But it’s true that Yu Nian isn’t tuning his voice. You can see his little video of playing the piano and singing he posted earlier. He really sings well!]
User 7341509: [Yes.]
[Who is Yu Nian? The singer who was on the hot search before? President Xie Why do you hate him? Bet on a photo of President Xie that there must be a story behind it!]

User 7341509: [Yes.]
[My last wish is for President Xie to be interviewed in a magazine! Asking for photos! Seeking the beauty of the world!]
User 7341509: [No time.]
[I was curious about who President Xie was hacking, so I couldn’t help but open the topic. What kind of fairy brother he is! It only took three seconds to become a fan! I’m sorry President Xie, I decided to carry you in my left atrium, and the right atrium will be for Yu Nian!]
User 7341509: [You can have him in both the left and the right atrium.]
30th floor, practice room.
Meng Yuan held the phone and couldn’t understand it, “No… why did you gain so many fans in an instant?”
Yu Nian was also at a loss as he held the half-drunk bottle of mineral water, “I don’t know either.”
“Mr. Xie…” Meng Yuan thoughtfully said, “Did you offend him before?”
Yu Nian recalled carefully and shook his head, “No.” They have met a few times. The communication wasn’t much, but it was still friendly, and it was impossible to be offended. Instead, they exchanged contact details and had previously texted each other good morning.
Moreover, the incident of being framed by fake fans was obviously solved by Xie You’s help, so why did Qu Xiaoran ask Xie You to do it now?
Meng Yuan was puzzled, “President Xie and President Qu are still young. You are an artist from Qu’s Headquarters, so there is no reason to attack you! And this point is not accurate. You haven’t tuned your voice. They just have to watch the video of you playing piano and singing you posted before…”
At this time, the door of the practice room was knocked, and Shi Rou poked her head in, “Yu Nian, your takeout has arrived.”
Yu Nian was puzzled, “I didn’t order takeout.”
Shi Rou walked in and gave way, pointing to the door, “But they are asking for you to sign after receiving the pastry.”
“Pastry?”
Yu Nian took a closer look and found that there were five people in total, each holding a wooden pastry box in their hand. He recognized it at a glance, it was from the pastry shop on Qinghe Road.
With a wave of emotion in his heart, he turned and said, “Yes, I asked my teacher to buy it. I didn’t think of it before, you work hard to make this trip.”
When the people left, Yu Nian looked at the pastry boxes stacked together and was a little lost. Meng Yuan understood, “You didn’t buy this, right? Who gave it?”
Yu Nian opened one of the boxes, looked at the sweet pastries inside, and smiled, “It’s Xie You.”
Knowing that he liked the pastries from this shop very much, it can only be Xie You who can buy these pastries especially for him.
“President Xie?” Meng Yuan suddenly held down the pastry box, “This, this… won’t be poisonous, right?”
Yu Nian laughed, “No.” He picked up a delicate snack and put it in his mouth. The sweet taste filled his mouth, “Look, am I not alright now?”
Meng Yuan was still worried, “Maybe it’s some kind of chronic poison!”
Yu Nian closed the lid and shook his head, “He must have some reason behind it.”
Shi Rou asked, “Did you just see that Weibo post?”
“Well, it’s a bit self-indulgent to say that, but he shouldn’t have any ill intention towards me.” Yu Nian looked at the five boxes of cakes in front of him and didn’t say the following sentence that came into his mind——
First, scolded me on Weibo and then immediately brought pastries over as if… coaxing me?
Shi Rou was still a little worried. She frowned, and said, “But this way, will the road be smooth for Nian Nian?”
Meng yuan understood what she meant, “Xingyao is backed by the Qu family and President Qu is also here. Besides, it’s just a few words on Weibo, and it won’t affect him much, so don’t worry too much.” He turned to talk to Yu Nian again, “Don’t be affected, Nian Nian, and prepare well for the next episode. How’s your dance practice going?”
Yu Nian nodded, “Brother Meng, rest assured. Teacher An and Teacher Huo helped me to keep an eye on it, and the movements are all arranged. There should be no problem with practicing again.”
Yu Nian returned home from Xingyao. He just put away the pastries when his phone rang. Seeing the name that popped up on the screen, his breathing sped up, “Hello, Uncle Rong.”
Rong Yue, who was on the opposite side, said excitedly, “Nian Nian, didn’t you ask me to find You Niao Ming[3] jade wine-jar, I found it some time ago! It was in the hands of a French collector. His family had an accident some time ago, so he had to sell a part of his collection for cash. They just released the news.”
Yu Nian’s steady heartbeat accelerated, “Is it going to be auctioned?”
“Yes, it’s been confirmed that it will be auctioned.”
“That’s good! as long as the auction is on, there will be a chance.” Yu Nian sighed and smiled again, “Then I will have to trouble uncle Rong again. I have enough money, and will transfer it to you later.”
“Don’t say these foreign words,” Rong Yue advised again, “You are still young, don’t push yourself so hard. If your grandparents knew about it, they would also feel distressed.”
“Okay,” Yu Nian took the other party’s heart, he said warmly, “Thank you, I have enough money.”
After saying a few more words, the phone hung up. Yu Nian sat on the floor with his long legs bent, his head resting on the sofa, and he couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile.
Thinking of something, he turned on his phone again and checked the balance of his bank card. The money from Xingyao as well as the money he made from the “Sounds of Nature” show, he saved all of it and didn’t spend it at all, and the bunch of zeros made him feel very happy.
However, after transferring the money to Rong Yue, Yu Nian counted the balance three times in a row, and sighed—there were only five hundred yuan left!
He looked at the five boxes of pastries sent by Xie You again and became happy.
Breakfast for the next few days has been arranged.
