Chapter 269 - You’re Fully Fledged Now, Huh?
...
...
The livestream featuring Xiang Yi and Shi Sui that lasted for more than two hours had become viral on the social media platforms in France!
They shared it on numerous sites and platforms with a vast variety of fancy captions like “The Cuisine of the Mysterious East” and “After watching the livestream for five minutes, I was so hungry I could devour ten burgers in a row!”
The comments were shared on Weibo, and it instantly became a hot topic.
——[Damn! Xiang Yi and Shisui are incredible! They made it big overseas too!]
——[Oh, please, it has nothing to do with Xiang Yi. The majority of the viewers must be fans of Shi Sui, who’s so popular and influential.]
——[What did Shi Sui even do? He just chatted with them for a while, didn’t he? Are you blind? Did you not see the person who cooked the dishes!?]
——[This is so disgusting. Vase Fairy, please stop sucking Shisui dry, you’re leeching off him even when you’re overseas. Doesn’t doing so eat at your conscience?]
——[Hehe, of course it wouldn’t eat at her conscience—because she doesn’t have one.]
——[I’m confused. ??? Do you people really think Xiang Yi doesn’t have any fans? I’m sorry, but I watched the livestream for Xiang Yi’s sake.]
——[I’m laughing so hard. You call Xiang Yi a “vase” all the time, but in my opinion, Shi Sui is the true “vase”!]
——[???? I’m a fan who ships the two of them. *shivers* Why is the argument getting so heated...]
...
In fact, Shi Sui’s fans and Xiang Yi’s fans had long been at odds with each other, but Xiang Yi’s fans had always been relatively small in number. Hence, they didn’t really have much of a say. However, as “Two Under One Roof” got increasingly popular, Xiang Yi’s fan base grew visibly.
Furthermore, the Shisui Sisters, which was led by “All is Well Year Round”, kept kicking up a stir and trying to direct hate to Xiang Yi. Over time, Xiang Yi’s fans were fed up and full of resentment toward them. The matter this time could be considered the catalyst that triggered the heated dispute between the two fan bases.
Xiang Yi’s fans had been tolerating their unruly behavior, but now that they had gone all out, they could actually put up a fight and stood strong even after a few rounds of arguments, which was rather surprising.

In the Presidential Suite.
Unlike Viscount Albert, who was exhilarated and in a frenzy, Xiang Chen merely took a mouthful of each dish and the expression formed by his well-defined features remained indifferent. After taking a look at his wristwatch, he said without much emotion, “I have an appointment with someone, I’ll take my leave now.”
Albert’s cheeks were bulging because his mouth was full of food. He looked at Xiang Chen in disbelief and asked, “Chen, how did you manage to resist these appetizing and mouth-watering delicacies?”
‘Well...you’ll get used to it if you eat such food often ?? ‘
However, Xiang Chen didn’t bother to explain. The partner he was going to meet next was very important. If Albert hadn’t recognized the person in the video to be Xiang Yi and insisted that Xiang Chen taste the dishes together with him, he wouldn’t have wasted his precious time at all.
“Nothing can stop me from going to work,” Xiang Chen said aloofly.
“...”
As a loafer... Ahem, no, as a viscount who had inherited his title and his family’s glory, Albert felt offended.
‘Ah, Chen is a nice man and he’s perfect in every aspect, but he lacks a zest for life.’
‘Apart from work, there’s probably nothing he cares about in this world.’
Dressed in an immaculately-trimmed black suit, which was straight and taut because they were held up by his broad shoulders, paired with neatly ironed black trousers that covered his long legs, Xiang Chen strode out of the Presidential Suite.
*Buzz*
His cell phone vibrated.
He picked it up impatiently and glanced at the screen, only to see a text message notification.
[Little Rabbit Yiyi] : May...may I treat you to a meal?
[Little Rabbit Yiyi] : *location*
‘Ah, she didn’t even address me as her brother. She’s all grown up now, eh?

Xiang Chen, who was dressed smartly, stopped in his tracks and took his time to reply to her.
[I’m not free.]
