Translated by Eve

Song Xuanhe had just sorted out the scene in his head when he heard Xiao Yuanmu’s voice, “Why are you unhappy?”

Although it had been a question in phrasing, its tone indicated that it was a statement. A pair of cool eyes looked over, seemingly calm. However, there were ripples within them.

“Because of the kiss just now?”

Xiao Yuanmu spoke again. This time, it sounded a bit more like a question. But, he also sounded rather certain, tone very calm. LFuvVU

Song Xuanhe peered at Xiao Yuanmu’s aloof expression from the corner of his eye. He was about to speak when he noticed the other’s reddened ears.

At this moment, Song Xuanhe suddenly recalled how Xiao Yuanmu had seemed especially calm after kissing him. Although Xiao Yuanmu had been quiet and hadn’t talked prior to this, the silence afterwards was different. He couldn’t quite put his finger on or describe what was different about it. But, he could feel it.

He had also inadvertently seen Xiao Yuanmu’s ears flush when he had pushed the other away. At that time, he hadn’t paid much attention to it. But thinking back to it now, an odd feeling suddenly aroused.

He had nearly forgotten that this had been Xiao Yuanmu’s real first kiss. Their bumping lips in the past didn’t count.

Regardless of gender, most of your first times would feel special to you. Whether it was your first love, first kiss, or first time, it would imprint deeply within you.

Right now, he had taken the big boss’s first kiss.

Moreover, this big boss was pretending to be calm while speaking to him with red ears as if he wanted to hear what Song Xuanhe thought of the kiss.

Song Xuanhe was a bit surprised. He cautiously gave Xiao Yuanmu a glance and just so happened to make eye contact. The other’s red ears once again entered his sight of view. f4eVql

When he had dated in the past, he had never dated anyone without experience before. But compared to his exes, Xiao Yuanmu made him feel completely different.

It was probably because this big shot’s god-like existence could not be compared to ordinary people.

Song Xuanhe averted his gaze, pursed his lips, and stopped the car. He stepped out into the garage, looking at the howling winds and torrential rainfall. He said to Xiao Yuanmu, who had also just gotten out of the car, “I want to eat Jinji’s seafood congee. Buy it for me.”

Xiao Yuanmu’s steps paused. He stared at the other’s back, eyes lighting up. The corner of his lips rose up slightly. He walked over to Song Xuanhe and looked down at his slightly pursed lips. He quietly said, “If I come back with congee, don’t be angry anymore….” kN3lHC

The sound of the storm outside was fierce. Xiao Yuanmu’s clear voice mixed together with the sound of the rain. Coming together, it made his voice sound quiet and soft, giving one the illusion that there was a trace of love within.

——If I come back with congee, don’t be angry anymore, OK?

Song Xuanhe’s fingers curled up. He subconsciously tucked his hand behind himself, straightening and curling his fingers. His heart beat suddenly became strange. He sucked in an imperceptible breath and looked into the other’s eyes, dully saying, “I want to eat congee.” sr9UJu

Song Xuanhe’s eyes looked back at him straight on. His clear eyes reflected Xiao Yuanmu’s body, but there was no hint of the expression he had wanted to see. Disappointment flashed through Xiao Yuanmu’s heart, but in the end, his eyelashes fluttered, and he quirked the corner of his lips up to say, “OK.”

As Song Xuanhe watched Xiao Yuanmu’s figure step into the rain, the corner of his lips raised, and he said with a faint smile, “In the original story, he didn’t bring an umbrella. This time, he brought one.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

The System knew that Song Xuanhe was speaking to it. Although it didn’t know why he had spoken out loud, it still replied. :【This kind of detail is easily changeable. It’s just that the general direction will not change.】

“The general direction?” Song Xuanhe laughed. “You mean how Xiao Yuanmu will find seven boyfriends after taking revenge on me?” bWB4hM

The System fell silent for a moment. Although it wasn’t human, it could feel that there was something a little off about Song Xuanhe’s emotions. However, before it could figure it out, it saw Song Xuanhe leave the garage. His expression was normal.

As soon as Song Xuanhe sat down on the sofa, his cell phone rang. He took a sip of water and accepted the call. He sounded a bit disinterested, “What?”

“Mr. Song has indeed come here. He stayed inside until now. That person saw him out. The two of them seemed very intimate.”

Song Xuanhe felt his interest stir. He said with a smile, “How intimate?” H7io3F

“They kissed outside the entrance.”

“Did you take pictures?”

“Yes.”

“Anything else?” 5jToEA

“Yes. Whatever photos we could take from the moment that Song Guochao entered until the moment he left, we took. I’ve already sent them to your inbox.”

Song Xuanhe raised a brow and turned on his computer upstairs. He opened up his inbox and flipped through the photos, laughing out loud.

“You’re calling the kiss at the entrance intimate? You didn’t mention that they were doing some primal ‘exercise’ in that person’s room.”

The other side was silent for a moment. As a private investigator, he naturally knew of the relationship between Song Guochao and his employer. Therefore, he hadn’t directly spoken of that kind of thing just now. He had waited until the other had looked at the photos and discovered it for himself. He hadn’t expected that the other wouldn’t care at all. He even seemed rather happy. VMqOL0

Nonetheless, he was doing private investigation for the money. So, when he heard these words, he just said, “That photo isn’t as clear as the photo at the entrance, so I didn’t mention it.”

“What do you mean it’s not clear?” Song Xuanhe enlarged the photo and said, “With this kind of quality, anyone who has seen him would be able to recognize him.”

After saying this, Song Xuanhe’s eyes lit up. He said, “Do you guys do spy work? For example, pretending to fix the water pipes and then installing cameras or wiretaps?”

“Sorry, Mr. Song, we don’t provide those kinds of services.” L4Hv68

Song Xuanhe was just mentioning it offhandedly. When he heard the other speak with a careful tone, he couldn’t help but find it amusing. He said, “It’s fine. Continue to watch them. You’re still keeping an eye on Liu Xu, right?”

“Yes.” That person hesitated and then said, “Liu Xu seems to have hired some people to secretly take photos. However, the people she hired could not find this place. They had only managed to take a few photos outside.”

Song Xuanhe laughed when he heard this. He leaned back in his chair and said in a languid voice, “I’m the most willing to help others in their time of need. I can help her solve all her problems.”

The investigator had interacted with Song Xuanhe quite a lot. However, when he heard these words, he was once again astonished by the other’s shamelessness, so it took him a moment to respond. “Since that’s the case, then I wish Mr. Song success.” LRCve0

After hanging up the phone, Song Xuanhe rubbed his chin. He was looking more and more forward to the good drama that would unfold in the future.

He then took a shower and changed into lounge wear. The rain outside showed no signs of lightening up. Song Xuanhe checked the time on his phone. His lips that had originally been hooked up into a slight smile were now pressed into a straight line. He felt fidgety for some reason.

He flopped onto his bed. He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He shot up and rubbed his hair roughly. “How’s Xiao Yuanmu right now?”

The System could watch Xiao Yuanmu’s every action and movement. As long as Song Xuanhe wanted to see it, he could watch the other as if there was a security camera on him. He could see what Xiao Yuanmu was doing right that moment. tdfuCS

The System didn’t think that Song Xuanhe would suddenly ask about Xiao Yuanmu. But, it still replied: 【He’s still on his way to Jinji. The rain’s too heavy. It took him ten minutes to leave here.】

Jinji was located on an old street in the western district. It would take approximately thirty minutes by car normally and would very likely take more considering the rain.

Song Xuanhe kicked a pillow to the floor. He didn’t know what he was annoyed over. He turned on the lights but only felt even more vexed.

He got out of bed and drank a glass of water. He then headed towards his closet, changed his clothes, put on his shoes, and headed out. qfgLJC

【Where are you going?】

Song Xuanhe started the car. Hearing this, he said dully, “Can’t sleep. Going out for some air.”

Getting some air during a storm?

Although Er Gou didn’t really understand humans, it did know that no one would go out for air during a storm like this in which it rained so hard that the droplets actually hurt when they pounded against your body. 8Xm43n

However, so long as Song Xuanhe didn’t do anything that went against the plot, it would not stop him. Therefore, it remained silent.

Song Xuanhe let the System read to him Xiao Yuanmu’s location. He stepped on the pedal and drove to Jinji. Just as he stopped the car, he saw Xiao Yuanmu walk out with congee in his hands.

However, Jinji’s entrance was on the sidewalk. If you wanted to get a car, you’d have to bear the rain and walk over to the street. But in such weather, the taxis were all full. It was impossible to catch one.

Song Xuanhe watched as Xiao Yuanmu tucked the congee into his chest and attempted to flag a taxi. None of the taxis stopped. In the end, the other decided to start walking instead. qFAQtw

Song Xuanhe opened an umbrella and tailed the other from a distance away. To tell the truth, Song Xuanhe didn’t know why he had left his warm, dry bed just to get drenched in the rain. He had walked for only two minutes, but he was already soaked. It was like his umbrella had just been for show.

However, Xiao Yuanmu continued to walk in front of him, so Song Xuanhe could not stop.

They had already walked for nearly eleven minutes. Because the storm was too strong, there was nearly nobody out on the streets. Even at the bus stop, there were only a few people waiting.

The bus that passed by this stop did not go to where they lived, so Xiao Yuanmu didn’t stop. He continued on. yAaIlu

Song Xuanhe stood at the intersection, looked both ways, and saw that it was empty of cars. Suddenly, he stopped. His eyes fell on the distant blue sign—Yuandong Road.

He squinted his eyes, vaguely able to make out a black SUV driving in their direction. He had already read the plot many times over, so he remembered it well.

Song Xuanhe knew who was driving that car. He also knew that this car would hit Xiao Yuanmu, so he didn’t move. He only watched quietly as the car approached Xiao Yuanmu, his fingers wrapped around his umbrella’s handle tightening so hard that his knuckles turned white.


The author has something to say: XqJaDE

Song Xuanhe: My boyfriend and his future boyfriend are about to meet each other in front of me. It’s also going to be one of those classic car accident meetings from idol dramas. What expression should I make?

Xiao Yuanmu: You don’t need to make any expressions. Just lie down.


Eve: “If I buy the congee, don’t be angry anymore, OK?” AHHH MY HEART. XYM is so pure.

Kara: Another rival, hm? Don’t worry, Xuanhe!! They can’t compare to you!! Mumu’s heart is yours only! (。・ω・。)ノ♡ Ic6qEf

  1. Thank you for the chapter. XYM is so cute to be embarrassed about a kiss! Ah, and one of the boyfriends’ will appear? Can’t wait! Will that guy fall for XYM because he’d crash into him? Or will the plot deviate because SXH appears with them?

  2. I’m so sad for both of them. SX you’re obviously concerned for him and unhappy about potential future lovers. He’s so cute about the kiss too.

    Thanks for the great translation ♥️

  3. uhhhh i don’t like thiss….knowing that xym is falling for MC while MC has to knowingly hurt or humiliate him is making me soooo uncomfortable 😓…please tell me this is gonna get better

    • It might not. There’s so much drama. From what I understand it sort of gets better in the the chapters above 70 or 80 or so. MTL reading is a bit hard to understand, so I wait patiently for chapters here. 🙂

        • Oh but the fluffy moments make it bearable. Their interactions are very fulfilling, sure there will be those moments where SXH has to hurt XYM but the boy seems to understand his intentions (in a way, even after reincarnation, I think). It’s isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but the story is truly wonderful, and is worth the wait.

  4. Heartache!! Omg so angst!! Wuwuwu What will happen? (ᗒᗩᗕ)

    Thank you for the chapter! (Wailing and waiting for the next)

  5. Ugh Song Xuanhe’s situation reminded me of a webtoon-turned-kdrama titled Extraordinary You… It must be very painful, to have your fate and your life laid out before you, and yet not having any means to change that… QAQ

    Thanks for the chapter!

    • Omg I loved that webtoon!! 😊😊

      Yeah, I also think it’s pretty similar in the way that the plot controls them, but I hope SXH breaks free and gets his man!!!(Ah, but he’d have to realize his feelings for said man first…) (-_-||)

  6. He must watch as his boyfriend walks away from him… that’s too harsh! That other boy won’t be better than Song Xuanhe!

    Thanks for the chapter!

  7. Er Gou, you are right. Human hearts are complex. I am loving this.

  8. Ooofff I know SXH– you’re falling haha but still vehemently denies it. It’s just sad that he really can’t deviate from the plot.. i know he wanted to help XYM but can’t.. I hope he gets free of the system soon TvT

    Thank you so much for the chapter!!!~ 🙇🙇🙇🙇

  9. Waaaah I’m gonna cry 😭😭, my chest feel so stuffy, mumu and song xuanhe forever, thank you for the translation love you guys 😘😍😘😘😍🥰

    ·.

  14. ——If I come back with congee, don’t be angry anymore, OK?

    That was the sound of my heart shattering into pieces😭😭😭😭

    Arghhhh author please stop tormenting our MuMu

  15. “The general direction?” Song Xuanhe laughed. “You mean how Xiao Yuanmu will find seven boyfriends after taking revenge on me?”

    he sounds so bitter im crying

  16. So is SXH experienced or not? Lol. The earlier chapter where he had to force a kiss on XYM said he didn’t have a relationship before and was very clumsy nibbling on his neck. Now the previous chapter said he’s missed both men and women before and the beginning of this chapter says he’s only dated experienced people and noticed XYM’s blushing ears.
