COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE, VOLUME 5 - Season 9 Episode 65

“Brother Shuyi, I didn’t know you’re so good,” said Hyson with a look of appreciation. Huang Shuyi fixed his mask as he looked at Hyson who was also dressed like him, with a cap, a mask, and even sunglasses. He pulled Hyson over to sit with him and said, “EA brother likes you a lot. But why didn’t you warn brother about this?”

“I did,” answered Hyson innocently. “Didn’t I tell you, don’t take the blind date so seriously? It’s just a game. Play your part.” Huang Shuyi’s face twitched when he realized that Hyson did say something like that to him. He rubbed his brows and looked at Hyson, “How do you even know Xiang Wal?”0 “Didn’t she tell you already?” asked Hyson. He smiled at him, “We are family.”

Huang Shuyi narrowed his eyes at Hyson. “Brother, haven’t you already noticed? Xiang Wai, Raelle Xiang?” Huang Shuyi was stumped and facepalmed himself. “So, you see, if Raelle and Major are related, and I call Raelle family, then I’ll have to accept Major into our family as well reluctantly.”

Huang Shuyi laughed at his words and shook his head. Only Hyson would say something like that and that’s why Huang Shuyi wasn’t even surprised. “But brother, I didn’t know you and Major were also considered acquaintances,” said Hyson looking very curious. One look and you’d know that he was fishing for information right now in a roundabout way. “She and I can be considered very good friends or enemies,” replied Huang Shuyi. “We were stuck with each other throughout our school life as deslunates. So, you can say we know each other quite well.”

“That’s why you know about Captain and Major’s toxic love,” Hyson nodded to himself.

“Is it okay for you to call it toxic love?” asked Huang Shuyi. “And if it’s toxic, why are you trying to bring them back together?”

“Love is like a virus,” replied Hyson seriously. “Once a person is infected, there cure.”

“Are you sure there is no cure?” Huang Shuyi asked with interest “People move on in life.”

“Yes, by either cutting off the infected part of their body or by taking the poison of love all over again,” said Hyson. Huang Shuyi nodded to himself as he seemed to actually agree with Hyson’s statement. He lifted his hand and ruffled Hyson’s hair, “You kid! You say you’ve never been in love. Why try to write others’ love stories? Write one for yourself at this age.” “My love story can’t be so simple,” said Hyson. “Someone first has to make me want to fall in love. Until now, I haven’t met anyone who could make me fall in love.”

“You have to give someone a chance,” Huang Shuyi pinched his nose. “By the way, what do you have to do with Zhai Yanjun?”

“He…” Hyson thought about it for a long time before saying, “He is also family.”

Huang Shuyi chuckled, “How many people are you planning on adding to your family?” “Brother Shuyi, you don’t worry at all. You’re also family. I call you brother for a reason. And in fact, you’re even closer to me than that dumb military couple.” “Dumb military couple?” repeated Huang Shuyi. Hyson nodded his head, “Captain Zhai Yanjun and Major Xiang Wai. In other words, dumb military couple.” Huang Shuyi laughed so much hearing that his tears came out. It wasn’t that funny to others but to him, it was really funny. And he had to agree with Hyson that those two were really dumb. Even he as a bystander had long known that they loved each other but the ones involved actually chose to break up because they thought the other didn’t love them and that too, after ten years of being in a relationship with each other.

It was kind of him to call them dumb!

“Brother Shuyi, usually you look so disinterested in everything. But today, you really surprised me. You actually started the play right on cue and gave a stellar performance. I have no words, I want to give you a round of applause.”

Hyson was praising from his heart. He did not think Huang Shuyi would actually give such a performance even without a script. As for the matter of no script, it was only because Hyson wanted everything to be natural.

It was definitely not because he forgot about it completely. Definitely not! Huang Shuyi smiled to himself as he told him, “Although Wai and I like to act like we are more of like enemies than friends, we are still the closest friends. I have been there when she always looked lonely. No one in the Song family felt like family and she was always lost. I remember she avoided going home at that time. No, she hated going back home. And I have also been there when she filled that loneliness with all sorts of strange activities. Her rebellious nature was just a cover to hide her loneliness. But whenever even Zhai Yanjun’s name was mentioned, her loneliness would disappear. You can say he isn’t just her love, he is her faith in life. She isn’t as tough as she seems to me.”

“I never thought she looked tough,” said Hyson. “She looked more like a kid who was hiding behind a hard shell. Keeping a distance from the world to avoid getting hurt and from anyone to figure out how weak she really was behind that hard shell.”

Huang Shuyi gave Hyson a look, “As always, you have a very good understanding of people. But you’re right.” He sighed to himself, “Since I call her a friend, I should do my part. Since I have always known who was her happiness, how can I watch her missing out on her happiness?”

Hyson nodded to himself but he still asked, “Brother, you look…” Hyson looked for the right words before continuing, “Do you like her?” Huang Shuyi did not think that Hyson would ask that question straightforwardly. Even he was taken aback and fell into deep thought.°
