Chapter 361 - She Likes Shi Sui
The umbrella was so small that it could not shield two people at all.
Shi Sui placed most of the umbrella over Xiang Yi’s head, letting the sunlight shine over his shoulders.
Xiang Yi said, “Suit yourself.”
She hung her head low and painted quickly and eagerly, as if she was hiding her emotional fluctuations.
Shi Sui really did not utter a single word and just silently held the umbrella for her.
There were numerous comments in the livestream:
—— [Yet another day of crying over the beautiful love that Shi Sui and Xiang Yi share!]
—— [Ahhh, it’s not that Shi Sui is cold and unfeeling, he’s just nice only to specific people!]
—— [Holding the umbrella for her is such a sweet gesture. I feel like I’m eating sugar! I’m desperately covering my mouth!]
—— [Fans who ship Shi Sui and Zhong Yi, don’t cry; you can join the club that ships the UntimelyCouple instead. I guarantee it’s sweet *dog head* *dog head*]
—— [Shi Sui really practices double standards.
To Zhong Yi: “I think you need some time alone.”
To Xiang Yi: “I’ll be quiet, don’t mind me, okay?]
...
The fans who shipped the Untimely Couple were exhilarated, while the staff running the marketing accounts were dismayed.
There goes their KPI!
The draft that they had just sent out had caught so much attention but now, they were wretched!
Shi Sui’s daughter exposed? That’s just a lie!
Without the gimmick of “Shi Sui’s daughter”, the words “Zhong Yi’s daughter” alone will not attract much attention nor generate high traffic!
For the sake of clicks, some people have taken an extreme and malicious approach, that is...
Taking a jab at Zhong Yi!
In an instant, discussion threads with titles like “Zhong Yi has a child out of wedlock”, “Zhong Yi is a bloodsucker”, “Zhong Yi and her daughter are chasing clout by using Shi Sui” and many more sprang up.
Many netizens felt that they had been cheated by Zhong Yi and, for a while, there were waves of scoldings directed at her.
—— [You had a child out of wedlock? That’s gross]
—— [Your daughter is only three, and you’re already so eager to bring her out here to make her earn money?]
—— [She might have planned and staged this herself. Well, bad publicity is still publicity. With high traffic, she’ll get to earn more money.]
—— [There were barely any news about Zhong Yi the past few years, and the films she starred in had all flopped. She might just be here to show her face before going back home to sell things on a livestream and act all coquettish. *barfs* *barfs*]
Zhong Yi did not expect that her selfish plan would lead to such a huge backlash.
...
Xiang Yi painted the fence as fast as she could.
The white fence and green vegetable patch looked rather fresh.
She picked a few green peppers and a few red peppers by hand and turned around to look at Shi Sui, who was still holding the umbrella. She said awkwardly, “Let’s go back.”
Shi Sui went to return the umbrella.
Xiang Yi was going to pick up the fruit basket on the ground, but Shi Sui beat her to it. “I can manage this,” he said.
Xiang Yi thought about it and decided to let him carry it since it wasn’t very heavy anyway.
After all, Shi Sui was a fragile and sensitive man (Shi Sui?). It wouldn’t be nice to hurt his ego.
The two walked side by side on the way back.
Standing on his left side, Xiang Yi noticed that the cold, fair skin of his exposed collarbone was red from the sunlight.
She found herself really strange as she didn’t know why she was angry with Shi Sui and why she felt sorry for him.
historical
She was conflicted and confused.
Shi Sui noticed the look of puzzlement on the face of the young girl beside him and asked in a deep voice, “Xiang Yi?”
Xiang Yi suddenly stopped in her tracks.
As if she had a sudden epiphany, she turned to look at Shi Sui abruptly, only to look deep into his abyss-like eyes.
Xiang Yi thought of a possibility.
She might have... Perhaps... Maybe... Seems like...
It seems that she wasn’t Shi Sui’s “Mommy Fan” but his “girlfriend fan”...
She had developed a crush on Shi Sui...
