Transmigrated As The Cannon Fodder Abandoned By The Movie StarCh137 - It’s Not Easy To Raise A Family!

Gu Qingchi and Xie Luyu had been a hot topic as of late. It was all due to a video filmed by a fan.

The video was still hanging on the trending list. The video had been filmed at a rock and roll concert and was pretty explosive from the very beginning. The lighting was dim. The original audio was the loud and raucous sound of rock and roll music. The camera shook for a bit, but it soon focused towards a certain direction in the crowd. 75W4lA

Gu Qingchi and Xie Luyu were holding onto each other, locked in a kiss. There were people all around them. Tons of couples in the crowd were also kissing. However, it was easy to pick the two of them out from the rest of the crowd.

Gu Qingchi was practically glowing. Maybe it was due to the dim lighting, but his pale exposed skin almost seemed to be giving off light.

Xie Luyu was a bit more covered up. He had the hood of his hoodie pulled up, so the only part of him that could be seen was his beautiful jawline and nose. His arm was firmly wrapped around Gu Qingchi’s waist. He also had a hand cupped against the back of Gu Qingchi’s head. He came off as somewhat aggressive.

Gu Qingchi tipped his head back, sinking deeper into the kiss. Xie Luyu proceeded to press forward, gradually leaning further and further into Gu Qingchi. Gu Qingchi leaned back into a beautiful arc, Xie Luyu’s arm being the only thing propping him up. nRhBIC

The video then ended there.

Gu Qingchi and Xie Luyu had already publicized their relationship, so, generally speaking, this shouldn’t be such a big deal.

However, there had been far too many twists and turns in their relationship, and neither of them were the type to air out all their laundry. Since publicizing their relationship, there hadn’t been a single new piece of information. Not even the usual gossip mill had anything to offer.

Other couples would show off their relationship at least a little bit, post a photo here or there. Meanwhile, Gu Qingchi and Xie Luyu only had a single post to show for themselves, causing their fans to get a little anxious.

So, once this video came out, it shot straight up the trending list despite being no more than a few seconds long.

[I just want to know when the wedding is!]

[This is every shipper’s dream! They haven’t broken up!]

[I must be the most tragic shipper in the world. My ship is real, but it might as well not be based on how much content we get from them.] AKpsWy

[Xie Luyu’s too scummy. Once he gets tired of someone, he tosses them. He even had the gall to do that to someone so beautiful. Gu Qingchi sent him all those text messages for two whole years, but he didn’t reply to a single one of them.

Now, he’s had a change of heart, but he still hasn’t popped the question. Is that not the very definition of a player? I’ve always felt like he’ll end up dumping Chi Chi. I just don’t know if Chi Chi will be able to handle it…]

[I want to know why no one’s cursing at Xie Luyu. If no one else, Gu Qingchi’s fans should be cursing him out at least. I thought we hated guys that change their minds like that? Can we please stick to the script?]

[It’s not like there’s no one cursing him, but, other than those two years of silence, he doesn’t seem to have actually done anything else wrong. Moreover, the two of them have already made up. Chi Chi’s condition also doesn’t seem to be the best, so the fans don’t want to upset him by saying something they shouldn’t. Chi Chi seems to be very sensitive in that regard. 7vXmBi

Xie Luyu was used to being at the center of public opinion. He didn’t think much of it as he scrolled.

Upon seeing a post that complimented Gu Qingchi, he gave it a like. He then turned his head and looked at the person who was currently sprawled across the bed, playing with the cat. Gu Qingchi’s face did seem a bit ruddier than before. He then looked back down at his cell phone and liked the post about Gu Qingchi’s complexion, feeling rather proud of himself.

Not only did his face get brighter, but he also gained four pounds! 0bdekM

Comments about their relationship continued to hang around on the trending list for quite some time. Gu Qingchi, who didn’t even use social media all that much, came to learn about it as well. He even spent a long time going through the comments, a serious look on his face.

He and Xie Luyu knew that there was no such change of heart, but that wasn’t what netizens saw. In their eyes, Xie Luyu scored a young and naive lover and proceeded to dump him once he got tired of him. Xie Luyu then regretted it and got back together with him, but he still didn’t show any signs of marrying him. It was a classic playboy technique.

Gu Qingchi thought about it for a bit. He felt that there was a very easy solution to all of this. It would all be fine so long as they got married. In any case, getting married was something they were going to do eventually anyway. Gu Qingchi was already living with Xie Luyu. They bought the villa right next to the family home. They then knocked down the partition separating the two gardens, creating one big garden, so that they could move between the two villas whenever they liked.

Gu Qingchi discussed it with Mrs. Gu that very night. EmJsMf

Mrs. Gu earnestly listened to Gu Qingchi. She spoke with him for a very long time.

“Chi Chi, you must know that forming a household with someone is a very difficult thing. You’ll have to take on more responsibility than you are now. You’ll also need a certain degree of financial freedom and tolerance. It isn’t something you can decide at the drop of a hat.”

“If you’re happy and if you feel you’re old enough to hold up a household on your own, I’ll allow it.”

Mrs. Gu handed his household registration over to him. She then rubbed his head, sighing a bit. xicUWg

“Chi Chi’s grown up.”

Gu Qingchi took his registration. He felt that his mother was right, so the first thing he did was go through his finances. He took out the money he got from his parents. He took out the money he got from his brother. He took out the money he got from Xie Luyu. In the end, he was left with a balance of ¥2305.00.

This was not the balance a soon to be married person should have.

That night, Gu Qingchi couldn’t sleep. 1NGkKt

Gu Qingchi didn’t have a habit of budgeting. If he had money, he would spend it. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t. He didn’t have any plan with his savings. He didn’t manage to get rid of this bad habit during those two years he spent alone either.

However, Gu Qingchi quickly gained an account book from that day forward, an actual account book. His expenses and revenues all went into that little book. He would meticulously write it all down every night before bed.

The next day, Xie Luyu found Gu Qingchi squatting in front of the cat as he pointed at the cabinet full of cat food. He was very seriously lecturing the cat.

“Your cat food costs one hundred yuan per can. We don’t have that much money. All of your food for the month is right here. You’re going to have to cut back on how much you eat.” yjNwru

It wasn’t clear whether the cat actually understood him or not. Gu Qingchi would say something and the cat would happily meow in response, just waiting for him to open a can of food for it. Once he finished speaking, however, it was met with the sight of him shutting the cabinet door and frantically starting meowing, furiously rubbing itself against his leg.

Gu Qingchi was uncharacteristically firm. “No.”

Not even five minutes later, the cat was chowing down on a can of cat food, letting out satisfied purrs as it ate.

Gu Qingchi pushed the can which the cat had accidentally nudged forward back in its place and sighed. 1s6m0l

He couldn’t even raise a cat. How was he supposed to raise a family? It was just too hard. How could life be so hard?

Xie Luyu watched all of this through his rose colored glasses.

He’s so cute. How could he be so cute?

When they went shopping, Gu Qingchi no longer swept potato chips into the shopping cart like he did before. Rather, he’d stare at the price tag for a long time before finally grabbing a single bag of his favorite flavor. He also held back on getting all of his other favorite snacks. 1uXiW

Xie Luyu usually had to nag at him to get less of that, it’s not good for your stomach, don’t eat too much of this, it’s bad for your teeth. However, this time, the words had yet to even leave his mouth before he swallowed them back down. Xie Luyu then quickly pushed the cart towards the fresh food section, seemingly afraid that the other would regret it and change his mind.

“Veggies. We should get some veggies.”

In the fresh food section, Xie Luyu had the final say.

“I think this shrimp looks pretty good. We should get some more of it. When we get back, I’ll make crystal shrimp dumplings for you.” A7fMlJ

Gu Qingchi took the shrimp from his hands. He first took a look at the price. He didn’t say anything. He simply took a look and placed it in the cart.

“I don’t think this box of crab is as big as the one your mom bought last time. It’s not as fresh either. We shouldn’t buy it.”

Gu Qingchi had a serious look on his face. He nodded his head like a little chick pecking grain.

Once they finished buying produce and everything else that they needed to buy, Gu Qingchi began wandering around the store and ended up making his way back to the snacks section. Xie Luyu was under the impression that he had changed his mind and wanted to buy a few more snacks. He was already thinking about how he was going to hide them all once they got back home. He couldn’t let Chi Chi find them all. If the snacks were left out in the open, Chi Chi wouldn’t be able to hold himself back from eating them. His appetite wasn’t very big to begin with. If he ate all those snacks, he would have even less room for actual meals.

Gu Qingchi stopped in the snacks section for a while. He looked at the snack display. He then took the snacks he’d picked out earlier and put them back one by one, seeming very reluctant to part with them.

Xie Luyu watched as he did so and suddenly couldn’t bear to see him like this. Just a moment earlier, he had been happy that he wasn’t getting as many snacks. Now, all he wanted was for him to get as many snacks as he liked.

He put a box of cookies back in the shopping cart. rjYeZV

“Isn’t this one of your favorites?”

Gu Qingchi dug it out of the shopping cart and looked at the price tag.

“It’s expensive.”

“It’s not expensive.” r4C28F

Gu Qingchi didn’t say anything then. He just pulled out his account book and handed it to Xie Luyu. He’d written down several different expenses in it. He didn’t just list the cost of cat food. He also listed the cost of their clothing, the cost of their garden furniture, the cost of having fresh flowers delivered to their house, and more.

Gu Qingchi’s total balance was listed at the very bottom. It was a much smaller number compared to all the expenses. He even wrote a somewhat remedial line at the end, stating that he was working hard to make money and would save up the money to raise a family very soon.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Xie Luyu thought for a bit. He added a plus sign after the balance and wrote in a string of numbers. He then handed the account book back to Gu Qingchi.

“Don’t you already have my card? You forgot to add it to the balance.” SQH Aq

He put the snacks back into the cart. Since he was the taller of the two, he smilingly rubbed the other’s head.

“It’s not easy to raise a family, but, you know, our family has two people in it.”

Gu Qingchi looked at the number that Xie Luyu added to his balance. He then turned around and began sweeping snacks into the shopping cart.

“No, no, no, you can’t get that much cola! It’ll expire! How about we get some yogurt instead? Same with the chips. Our cart won’t be able to fit all of it. I didn’t mean for you to go get another one! No, a basket isn’t allowed either. Okay, okay, but you have to eat dinner before you open them … ” D3NdP6
