568 Match Made In Heaven

Han Bohai pursed his lips when she said, 'I know.' 

"So, you do know that I'm an actor?" he asked in feigned astonishment.

Xiu narrowed her eyes at him as she said, "Who doesn't know that? Who dares say they don't know my br... I mean that Han Bohai is an actor. Everyone knows that already. Don't you know how popular you are? Millions of fans look up to you."

He suddenly felt like he really liked listening to her, so he on purpose asked, "So, are you one of those fans?"

Xiu didn't even hesitate before nodding her head. 

"I don't believe that," said Han Bohai with a certain tone. 

"Why not?" Xiu was baffled. "I'm your biggest fan. In fact, I promise you that I'm your very first fan as well."

Han Bohai shook his head saying, "Sorry! The title of my biggest fan and the very first fan, both belong to someone else." He lowered his eyes as he completed his words in his head with, 'But that's different that person is no longer with us.'

Xiu didn't want to argue with him. She got up and went to her bedroom. Soon she came back hugging a scrapbook. The size was bigger than a normal-sized scrapbook and one could clearly see that it was handmade. She placed it right before him and said, "See? I might not be the biggest fan but I ain't a joke either."

He looked at her face before he untied the ribbon and looked through the scrapbook. It had everything related to him. From his very first debut to his latest achievements. It was like a memory album she had kept very preciously.

Xiu had never planned on going back to look for Han Bohai after rebirth but after he debuted, it was inevitable for her to see him here and there. That's when she felt really proud of him. So, since she couldn't tell him about her condition, she chose to keep memories of him with herself to accompany her. 

If one asked Xiu, who knew Chen Xiu the best, the answer would always be Han Bohai. This little brother had accompanied her for long enough to know what kind of a person she really was. And she was the closest to him as well. That's why this little brother held a very special place in her life. Just because she was willing to forget the bad people in her previous life doesn't mean she wasn't willing to forget the good ones. Especially when the good ones were very rare to her previously.

Han Bohai didn't see how pleased she looked right now with herself. His attention was stuck on the content of this book. Especially...

//Xiao Bobo finally chose to debut. I already feel proud.

//Xiao Bobo got his first award today! 

//Xiao Bobo is gonna work with a Hollywood Director! I'm feeling nervous for him. But I know he'd do his best!

//I'm mad at the staff of the show. How could they mix up his drinks? Poor baby ended up in a hospital.

//Xiao Bobo looks really good in purple. It's still his color!

When he looked up, his eyes were bleary. He couldn't seem to focus. He blinked several times before he was able to see her face clearly. "Now, tell me? Aren't I fan?"

"Why did you write, 'Xiao Bobo'?" 

Xiu was stunned to her place and bit her tongue. Stupid! Idiot! Just to prove that she was a die-hard fan, she actually placed the scrapbook before him? She totally forgot that she had written her own comments as well. But wasn't it the way fans would do? What was there to be afraid of? A bizarre idea like transmigration or reincarnation won't come to his science proof brain.

"Oh, that's because I liked that nickname," she answered without hesitation. Technically, she wasn't lying so it wasn't hard to appear this calm. 

Han Bohai thought about it before nodding, "So, you really are a fan. No wonder you knew what I liked to eat."

"Yes, that's the perfect explanation."

"But..." Xiu looked up at him as he continued, "Usually when I meet fans they would scream, jump, cry, some might even faint. They either ask for a photo or an autograph. You didn't behave like that so I couldn't really believe that you really are a fan."

Xiu waved her hand offhandedly, "Of course, I won't act like that. It's not my age to chase idols."

"You look very young to me though," retorted Han Bohai.

Xiu coughed slightly before saying, "It's my soul that's old."

"Oh."

She took her scrapbook back and pressed her lips together before speaking, "But I do have a request."

"Really?" His brows quirked up. "Just tell me."

"I want to hug you," said Xiu making his brows scrunched up. "Don't get me wrong. I'm just trying to gather some good energy from my idol. That's all. Since I'm currently jobless, I'm looking for good luck."

"I don't mind it," he replied simply. During fan meetings, he had been through many outlandish requests. Hers seemed very simple actually.

But she looked very happy to have gotten his permission. So, without even thinking Xiu hugged him tightly. Han Bohai froze on his spot again. Why did she affect him so much? 

"You grew up really well, little brother," she mumbled against his chest but he didn't hear her. Pulling away, she lifted her hand to touch his face as she said, "You are really tall."

"Did you just realize that?" he asked in amusement.

"Nope! I knew it even before this. Today, you just seem extra tall." She smiled affectionately at him. 'You are standing at the top now, of course, you'd be tall.'

Han Bohai didn't know what to say. Fortunately, his phone rang and saved him from another awkward silence. Reading the message from his assistant, he turned to Xiu, "I have to leave now. My flight is in an hour."

"Oh," Xiu was visibly disappointed to hear that but she still said, "Have a safe journey and take care of yourself."

As he was about to exit through the door, she called, "Actually I have one more request."

He turned around to ask, "What is it?"

"Promise to love my Ying Jie always like the way you do right now."

"I can't promise that." Xiu frowned at his reply. "Because I'm certain I'll only love her even more." Xiu's eyes couldn't help brightening up at his response. He really got cheekier, eh?

With that, she watched him leave and dropped down on her sofa with a blank expression. Meeting him felt almost like a dream to her. She had never expected to meet him in such a situation. 

Also, Ying Jie and Xiao Bobo... Hmmm...

This really seems like a match made in heaven!
