“That’s not true, it’s not that long at all!” Ye Fei blurted out. If their kiss had really taken an hour, he would have suffocated ten minutes in. This bullshit report was completely exaggerated just for some pitiful eyeballs!

Yan Xiao’s focus was completely different from his. He held Ye Fei’s hand, inserted his fingers one by one into Ye Fei’s hand, and intertwined them. 

“We kissed.” Yan Xiao was very happy. Rather than the ecstatic, dancing in place kind of happiness, the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, as if an uncontrollable joy was gushing out from his body.

“Ye Fei,” he earnestly pleaded, feeling the warmth of their skin touching each other, “will you move back? If you don’t want to live there, we’ll change the place. You can choose the address and decoration.”

He added, “Don’t you like to play? I’m already learning.” He looked into Ye Fei’s eyes and emphasized, “I’m very good at learning.”

Like an old-fashioned and conservative pedant, one kiss meant to seal the rest of their life. 

Ye Fei did not speak. He turned his head away, trying to withdraw his hand. But Yan Xiao’s strength was too great and his grip was too tight, so he could not break free at all.

“I don’t remember what happened last night,” Yan Xiao said, with obvious unwillingness in his tone, and holding the expectation of a child asking for candy, “Can you kiss again, Ye Fei.”

He ducked down, attempting to find Ye Fei’s lips, but he was pushed away by Ye Fei. Yan Xiao startled, as if he could not understand why he was rejected. A little aggrieved, he called Ye Fei’s name and asked him, “Did I do something bad last night?”

Ye Fei was determined not to stay with Yan Xiao anymore. Otherwise he would definitely have given in to everything. Whether it’s kissing or making love, as long as Yan Xiao is happy. He raised his eyes to look at Yan Xiao, and smiled cynically: “It’s only one kiss, how can President Yan take it seriously.”

The atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point. Yan Xiao was silent for a while before he asked, “What do you mean?”

Ye Fei leaned against the door frame, his expression casual and nonchalant. “We’re all men, everything comes out of emotion. Everyone is an adult, President, you can’t play that easily.”

“Play.” For some reason, Yan Xiao deliberately emphasized that word.

“Yes,” Yan Xiao murmured as he turned around and picked up the car keys on the table, and ducked his head to hide the look in his eyes, “Yan Xiao, look, I think kissing is as common as eating and drinking, but you think it’s a big deal—” 

He walked out past Yan Xiao and waved at him. “Don’t waste your time on me, we are not suitable at all. As for that report, please help me retract it.”

“What are you doing?” Ye Fei felt a hand grasp his wrist, and turned back. The next second, a clumsy and unfamiliar kiss landed on the lips. Ye Fei glared at him. “You…”

“Kissing is as common as eating and drinking,” Yan Xiao repeated what Ye Fei had said earlier, looking at him with a calm expression, “I think so too. If you want, I can kiss you anytime, anywhere, so this is appropriate.”

Ye Fei was speechless. He knew that Yan Xiao was exploiting a loophole, but he could not think of a single sentence to refute him. 

“I like that report very much, and I don’t want to delete it at all,” Yan Xiao touched Ye Fei’s face lightly, before letting go of him, “but if you don’t like it, forget it.”

He unlocked his phone, found Ma Jianfang’s WeChat and sent a message to him. “I’ll listen to you.”

Until he returned to Tianxi, Ye Fei’s mind was foggy. He found that Yan Xiao seemed to have changed and became more difficult to deal with than before. Ye Fei’s original intention was to let Yan Xiao retreat in the face of loss; but unexpectedly, Ye Fei had given him the opportunity to get close to himself.

“Come here,” Zhou Zhensheng got a soft cushion and spread it on the sofa, his face attentive, “Sit here.”

Although Sun Qiong did not say anything, the smile in his eyes was obviously malicious.

Ye Fei: “…” 

Ye Fei was too lazy to pay attention to them, and closed the office door. “Were your brains eaten by zombies? You even believe in those gossip rags.”

“There are pictures and videos, it’s useless for you to deny it,” Gu Ruijia shook his phone triumphantly at him, “Thanks to you, our drama has become popular.”

Yan Xiao had always kept a low profile, and he and Ye Fei had never been in the same frame. After the news of their marriage was revealed last time, many people speculated that their relationship was actually not good.

However, the kissing picture published yesterday undermined the rumor. At that time, the sharp-eyed people who ate melons discovered that <<Please Sober Up>> was jointly produced by Tianxi Entertainment and Feixiao Video. 

Upon thinking of Yan Xiao’s uncharacteristic behavior some time ago, of how he suddenly came out to promote Feixiao Video… The case has been solved—

President Yan was not trying to share the big cake of film and television, nor to expand the territory of Feixiao Technology; he was instead preparing for the first cooperation with Ye Fei.

The melon eaters have always been very interested in the private life of the big shots. Not to mention, the two faces of Yan Xiao and Ye Fei were enough of an incentive. This big piece of news could no longer be contained, and in just one night, even RPF CP fiction had been created.

<<Please Sober Up>> was confirmed as a bridge for the cooperation between the two and attracted the attention of countless people. The search position rose steadily, and created the impression of being a hit. 

Ye Fei did not have time to look at his phone today, thus he had no clue what was going on online. He frowned and looked at Gu Ruijia. “What does it have to do with us?”

“Okay, it is forgivable that one who has an active sex life doesn’t know. ” Zhou Zhensheng was watching the excitement on the Internet, and he threw his phone to Ye Fei. “Look, I even gave several likes.”

Ye Fei took the phone and scrolled down.

[Wu wu wu I’ve been drinking the love of immortals! Isn’t it a web drama? Go see it now!] 

[Hey, this level of intensity… I’m an adult now, please don’t stop! ]

[The pictures are nothing to look at, so I just watched them dozens of times.]

[It must be hype, how could it be so coincidental, <<Please Sober Up>> premiered, and the two were photographed kissing again. ]

[I also think it’s hype…] 

[Upstairs can turn their microphones off, it’s just a small web drama, there’s really no need for President Yan to come off the stage to hype it up? Isn’t it delicious to have this time to talk about one more topic? ]

[Those who are talking about hype don’t reveal your IQ, don’t assume Yan Xiao and Ye Fei are using the entertainment industry’s tricks, okay? ]

[I went to see <<Please Sober Up>> for President Yan, but I didn’t expect it to be fun to watch hahahaha. ]

Everyone was filled with curiosity, and the melon eaters believed that Yan Xiao’s appearance in the public sphere was for Ye Fei. When they could not find any other melons, they transferred this curiosity to the online drama jointly produced by the two. So much so that <<Please Sober Up>> reached 25 million views on the first day. 

“Those photos are really my lucky stars,” Gu Ruijia laughed, “No, I have to repost it on Weibo.”

However, when he searched the web page, he found the relevant news that filled the screen no longer existed.

“What’s the situation?” Gu Ruijia looked at Ye Fei, “Were you too passionate and got censored by the authorities?”

“Scram!” Ye Fei kicked him, “I asked Yan Xiao to retract it.” 

“Why did you ask him to delete it! What a good promotion opportunity!” Gu Ruijia’s face twisted with distress, “It’s not a scandal for the two of you, can’t you leave it on for a while!”

Ye Fei’s face was unmoved. Gu Ruijia glared at him and accused, “Damn, it’s amazing to be married to Brother Xiao! You will use power to bully others.”

Ye Fei raised her eyebrows. “Did I bully you?”

“What ‘Did I bully you’ !” Gu Ruijia stood up and shrieked, “This is our company’s first self-produced drama! You have deleted all the relevant gossip, how can you still attract traffic!” 

Ye Fei snorted and looked at him with a half-smile, “Do you know what it means using power to bully others, you’re using the phrase wrongly.”

“Why don’t I understand—” Gu Ruijia refused to accept.

“You know how the phrase started with how a eunuch gets castrated to receive authority, right?” Ye Fei interrupted him, “So the meaning of that ‘power’ is…” He curled his lips into a smile, and focused his eyes on Gu Ruijia’s butt, “When did I use ‘power’ to bully you?”

“F*ck you—” Gu Ruijia slammed a pillow over, “Why don’t you die of seduction!” Ye Fei gave a soft chuckle, raised his hand to take the pillow, and hugged it in his arms. 

“Forget it, I have nothing to say to a person like you,” Gu Ruijia turned on his tablet, sat next to Zhou Zhensheng, replayed <<Please Sober Up>> with him, and browsed the real-time commentary. “I’m going to work!”

At the same time, there was another person who, like him, was also closely following the show.

In the general manager’s office of Dingyuan, when he saw the number of broadcasts of “Please Sober Up”, Ye Yao directly smashed the pot of tiger-tailed orchids on the windowsill.

From the first day he learned that Ye Fei was filming an online drama, Ye Yao had cursed in his heart, hoping that the drama would crash and burn. However, <<Please Sober Up>> had a good start. How could he be appeased? 

“F*ck!” Ye Yao seemed to have lost his mind and paced around the office irritably, his eyes bleeding from jealousy.

How could Ye Fei succeed in anything! Why!

“What’s the matter?” As soon as Wang Zhao pushed open the door and came in, he was dumbfounded by the fragments of flowerpot all over the floor. He pulled up a chair and sat next to Ye Yao. “Is it because you lost too much last night?”

During this time, Ye Yao has been hanging out with Wang Zhao. Although he did not want to touch these messy things, those who were close to ink turned black. At first, Ye Yao just wanted to play a few games, but slowly, he became more courageous, and lost more than one million last night. 

Ye Yao took a breath, shook his head and replied, “No, it’s just that I was overwhelmed with news of Ye Fei.”

“It’s just a web drama,” Wang Zhao did not take it seriously at all, “Why don’t we also shoot one, it will definitely be better than Ye Fei’.”

Seeing that Ye Yao’s face was still not good, Wang Zhao continued, “This is only the first day, and they could have their own Waterloo.”

“I know,” Ye Yao forced a smile, “but I’m just not willing to accept this.” He gritted his teeth, but in the end he still could not hold back, and ordered the water armies of Ding Yuan to give <<Please Sober Up>> two stars. 

If you gave one star directly, the traces of using a water army would be too obvious, and it would be easily judged invalid by the website. Two stars was more suitable.

“Why are you doing this?” Wang Zhao sneered. Ye Yao lit a cigarette and said nothing.

“How about we relax tonight?” Wang Zhao leaned over and took Ye Yao’s shoulders, “We’ll make up for your loss last night.”

Ye Yao was not in the mood, but thinking about the million or so yuan made his flesh hurt. After hesitating for a while, he nodded and said, “Okay.” 

Ye Fei did not know that Ye Yao was planning to stab him in the back. After finishing the day’s affairs, he drove back to his small apartment.

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, Ye Fei saw the door of the next room open wide, and some furniture was piled up in the corridor, as his neighbor was moving in. One of the desks was very familiar.

When he looked up, he saw Yan Xiao standing at the door.

“Are these your things? Why did you move here?” Ye Fei was taken aback. 

Yan Xiao walked to Ye Fei’s side. His eyes surveyed Ye Fei’s face, firm and focused. It seemed that as long as Ye Fei was in front of him, nothing else could be caught in his gaze.

“Because I don’t like being so far away from you,” Yan Xiao said, “I also want to see you every day.”
