CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 62: LONGSTANDING AFFECTION (2)

On the way to the set, Yang Li kept glancing over at the person in the passenger seat while driving, his distracted and hesitant look clearly written all over his face.

Unable to take it anymore, Zhou Huaiyi, when he looked over again, raised his eyes with a smile and met his gaze: "What’s up? Is there a traffic light on my face?"

Their eyes met directly, and Yang Li’s hand holding the steering wheel subconsciously trembled as he weakly withdrew his gaze: "...No."

Zhou Huaiyi: "No? Then why do you keep looking at me?"

Yang Li licked his lips, finding it hard to say, mulling over his words, and hesitantly: "Qi Chen... actually..."

"?"

"It’s good to be more energetic when you’re young..." He smacked his lips, subtly reminding, "But aren’t you all still at work now? You have to consider your health, don’t you think?"

"??" Zhou Huaiyi looked completely baffled, what the heck are you talking about?

At the turn, Yang Li turned the steering wheel, his chest heaving a few times, and finally, he simply raised his tone and said in one breath, "I’m saying, since we’re still at the hotel with the crew, you and Zhou Huaiyi should control yourselves at night, don’t stay up too late!"

?

??

???

Huh????

After a long while, Zhou Huaiyi understood what he meant, his face suddenly flushed red, extremely embarrassed, and he snorted angrily at him: "What the hell are you thinking!"

Yang Li: ! (◎_◎;)

,

That evening, Zhou Huaiyi finished work and returned, and Xiang Qichen had just finished selecting materials. As Zhou Huaiyi entered the bathroom after coming in, Xiang Qichen received a WeChat message from Yang Li—

[Yang Li: Qi Chen, don’t be mad, I won’t think about it anymore in the future! And I definitely won’t speak recklessly again, I’m sorry.]

Xiang Qichen raised an eyebrow at this message, walked over to the bathroom door with a feeling: "How was today?"

Zhou Huaiyi splashed water on his face, his expression as calm as ever: "It was okay."

Xiang Qichen nodded thoughtfully and asked, "What’s wrong with Yang Li?"

Zhou Huaiyi dried his face with a tissue, not immediately realizing what he was referring to: "Hm?"

Xiang Qichen simply opened the chat interface and handed it to him.

Zhou Huaiyi glanced at it and understood.

Thinking about Yang Li’s "control yourselves" comment, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Maybe he’s brain dead:)"

Xiang Qichen: "..."

After showering, Yang Li hadn’t received a reply and was starting to get anxious.

Oh no, I’ve offended the boss; will I get a salary cut...

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. After hastily drying his hair, he threw on his clothes and went to knock on Zhou Huaiyi’s room door.

Xiang Qichen had just grabbed his pajamas to shower when he heard the door and leisurely got up to check through the peephole.

Seeing who it was, he was a bit surprised and reached out to open the door.

Yang Li was so anxious he was tapping his feet: "Zhou Huaiyi, Zhou Huaiyi, Zhou Huaiyi, please save me."

"..."

"I said something wrong today and made Qi Chen angry..." Yang Li regretted deeply, "He ignored me all afternoon on set... and hasn’t replied to my apology on WeChat... You and he have such a ’good relationship’, help me out here..."

Xiang Qichen leisurely leaned against the door, crossing his arms: "What did you say?"

"I said..." Yang Li wasn’t as reserved now and quietly leaned in to whisper in his ear, "I told you two not to be too... indulgent at night, after all, there are crew members at the hotel."

Xiang Qichen: "......"

Yang Li clicked his tongue: "I’m saying this for your own good, who knew Qi Chen would get mad... He was never this petty before... don’t you think?"

Xiang Qichen glanced at him with a deep gaze: "Heh."

Yang Li: "?"

Xiang Qichen: "She was right, your brain is full of crap."

With that, Xiang Qichen turned and closed the door.

With a "bang" sound, the door slammed shut, echoing loudly.

"..."
