Virtual Vows and Real Emotions Chapter 8

Finn Xie wondered if he had heard it wrong.

He stared at Asher Guan for a moment, and Finn Xie heard himself repeating the question carefully: "Are you sure?"

Asher Guan said, "Please sit down."

Finn Xie: "Ah?"

Asher Guan: "It's inconvenient to stand."

But it was also inconvenient for him to sit on the sofa.

After hesitating for a long time, Finn Xie took a stool from the side and sat down. After taking it, Finn Xie found that he might as well sit on the sofa. Because of the position, Asher Guan's gaze was a bit condescending.

Finn Xie stretched out his hand. Perhaps because he had been staying in a heated place, the clothes on the other person were actually very thin, and the cold fabric of the suit pants brushed across his palm. He tried his best to ignore the nervousness: "Strength... Is it okay?"

Asher Guan nodded nonchalantly. He no longer looked at Finn Xie and played with his cell phone.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment. Finn Xie originally thought that he would be able to relax after a while, but on the contrary, from his angle he could see Asher Guan's thin and slightly curved eyes, straight and beautiful nose bridge, and thin upper lip.

He is indeed handsome, but he also looks distant, even a little cold-hearted.

His heartbeat was getting faster and faster. For a while, Finn Xie's mind was blank. By the time he realized what was happening, his hand had already pressed on the side of his thigh. If he pressed any further, then...

Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, something poked him.

Finn Xie's head suddenly felt hot, and his hands felt like they were on fire. He quickly put his hands back to their normal position, and he didn't dare to look up at Asher Guan. Out of nowhere, he touched Asher Guan first, and his behavior seemed to be ill-intentioned, even seductive.

This is not just a cool move, it's hooliganism.

But if Asher Guan didn't move, then it wouldn't...

Do you want to apologize?

"Okay." Hearing the other party's voice, Finn Xie stood up as if he had been granted amnesty. He was about to say something when he saw Asher Guan's eyes.

Even since they met again, this was the first time Asher Guan looked at him with such eyes. It was like snow in a stream, cold and indifferent, and even with a complexity that Finn Xie could not understand.

"You should go to bed early." Asher Guan said and stopped looking at this side. Combining with his eyes just now, Finn Xie understood that this was an order to leave.

Still pissed him off.

Finn Xie tried his best to ignore the frustration in his heart, and when he thought of what Shi Jian had just said, he couldn't help but curl his lips in self-mockery.

It's damn hard to flirt with someone you really like. If you accidentally touch them, you'll feel happy and guilty at the same time, as if you've committed a crime.

Finn Xie went upstairs with his back to Asher Guan. The latter looked at his back with a frown on his face.

Asher Guan was in a bad mood indeed. He intentionally gave Finn Xie a chance, but he didn't expect that, just as Guan Sha said, the other party actually let go of his reserve. But what made him feel the worst was not Finn Xie's tricks, but that even if the other party used such a stupid method to trick him, he was still willing to take the bait.

The body's reaction is the most honest. He has feelings for Finn Xie.

It was rare for Finn Xie to wake up early.

Because of the accident last night, he had no mood to play games after returning to his room, and went to bed earlier than usual. When he woke up and looked at his phone, it was only a little after eight o'clock.

He got up and washed up. When he went downstairs, Aunt Song smiled at him and said, "Mr. Xie, breakfast is on the table and it's still hot."

"Auntie, just call me Xiao Xie," Finn Xie sat down: "Do you usually make breakfast?"

For someone like him who has been active at night since moving into the villa, this was the first time he knew that the aunt would come to make breakfast.

Aunt Song nodded: "Mr. Guan has always had good living habits. I came at about seven o'clock. If he knew that you adjusted your schedule today, he would be happy."

Asher Guan wouldn't care about this.

Finn Xie smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

Seeing him start eating, Aunt Song left the villa.

Finn Xie was eating and playing with his phone. He had just replied to a message when he received a call. The caller was Lao Xie, his father.

He didn't say anything, and neither did the other party. After a few seconds, Old Xie seemed a little unbelievable: "You're up so early?"

Finn Xie hummed.

"It's good to get up early. It's good for your health. I told you that young people should get up early and go to bed early..."

Old Xie talked to him about some family matters. After about ten minutes, Old Xie suddenly said, "Your Aunt Sui wants to buy a house before the Chinese New Year. It is said that the price of the new district will increase after the Chinese New Year. We have just paid Xiaojing's tuition for the next semester, and we are short of 600,000 yuan. Dad wants to borrow some from you."

Without waiting for Finn Xie to speak, Old Xie added: "I will return it by next summer at the latest, together with the money I borrowed before."

Finn Xie comes from a divorced family. His mother went to Shanghai before he could remember anything, and his father remarried an aunt to live with. When he was a child, neither his aunt nor his father cared about him, only his grandmother took care of him.

Because of this, Finn Xie and Old Xie are not close, especially in recent years, Xie Jing, the son born to my aunt and Old Xie, went abroad to study painting, which cost six or seven hundred thousand yuan every year. Old Xie asked him to borrow money several times, but Finn Xie never mentioned paying it back, and there was silence on the other side.

"Okay," Finn Xie clearly heard the other party exhale in relief after he agreed: "Still the same card as before?"

"Yes." Old Xie's tone became lighter: "Thank you, son. Your brother said that several of his classmates like you very much and often watch your live broadcast on TV..."

Where can I get live broadcast on TV?

Before Old Xie could finish his compliments, Finn Xie interrupted him: "Dad, I have something to tell you."

"Um?"

"Is your computer on?" Finn Xie's father is a civil servant, and he works in front of the computer: "Baidu Asher Guan. Guan means closing a door, and He means crane bird."

Finn Xie heard the sound of typing on the keyboard. After a while, Old Xie said, "Is this your new boss? He's a handsome guy. But when I typed his name, there was a Ivy Lu after it. Is it a bit bad that your boss is having an affair with a female anchor?"

"It's not good," Finn Xie said, "Replace Ivy Lu with Finn Xie."

...

"I married him."

Finn Xie hung up the phone before Old Xie could scold him. He quickly opened the app and transferred the money. The transfer was instant, and sure enough, Old Xie did not call again after receiving the money.

Finn Xie put down his phone with great satisfaction. Yes, he had finally gotten rid of his worry.

When the live broadcast was about to end in the evening, a large number of people suddenly posted comments in his live broadcast room:

[God, Jasper has reserved your New Year's Eve]

[Emperor Fu just said in the live broadcast room that he wants to arrange a father-son game with you, and you will play solo on New Year's Eve to avenge your previous defeat. If you lose, he will marry you]

[The handsome guy in the e-sports circle and the handsome guy in the anchor circle, I would like to wish you two a happy marriage and a son soon].

"Don't mess with me," Finn Xie laughed, "Did Jasper really say that?"

It was on New Year's Eve two years ago that Finn Xie, who had just entered the industry, became famous overnight by killing Jasper three times. It had been almost two years since he last played 1v1 with Jasper. Thinking that the other party represented the top level of domestic e-sports, Finn Xie was somewhat tempted.

[I really said it, if you don’t believe me, ask him yourself]

[When the time comes, find a platform to create a homepage, and the title will be "Emperor Fu touches the God to get married", and the gifts received during the live broadcast will be the dowry, right?]

[That guy must be so Fcuking busy accepting gifts].

Finn Xie watched a group of people talking nonsense and laughed along. He accidentally glanced at the lower right corner and saw the system prompt:

["I'll touch you" entered the live broadcast room].

Finn Xie froze.

Those who don't know the truth are still pairing him with Jasper, and are discussing how many viewers this showdown of the century will have, and what kind of grand occasion it will present on Tieba, forums and Weibo.

[Let me imitate you]: [New Year’s Eve is a holiday and the platform will be closed for that day].

...

[Who did I see just now? What did I see?]

[Am I Fcuking dazzled?]

[Oh my god? Mr. Guan is so generous. How much RMB will be lost by having a holiday on New Year's Eve?]

[Boss Guan, are you taking a day off for Ivy Lu? After all, having a beautiful girl in your arms on New Year's Eve is the greatest joy in life].

Finn Xie was also surprised, but after being surprised, he remembered that Blue Whale was on holiday and he had a free day on New Year's Eve: "Then what should I do?"

【I touch you】: [You go home].

[Hahahaha, you’ve worked hard touching the gods, the boss asked you to go home for the New Year]

[It’s been a busy year, let’s take a break].

The barrage of comments is not afraid of big things, but Finn Xie is different. He just told Old Xie such explosive news today, and Old Xie will break his legs when he goes back, right?

"I can't go back this year," Finn Xie said. "My father and I fell out, and I'm homeless."

The comments started to mock him as an orphan who couldn't find his home. Finn Xie was about to pick one to retort when he saw Asher Guan's ID among the comments.

【Let me touch you】: [You have].

Finn Xie stopped talking. He understood Asher Guan's idea. He wanted to take him back to meet his parents. From the beginning, Asher Guan had no intention of letting him spend the New Year with Old Xie.

Finn Xie sat in the chair, his thoughts slowly drifting far away.

Six years ago on New Year's Eve, his mother suddenly returned to the capital, and she insisted on taking Finn Xie away. The woman Finn Xie had never seen quarreled with Old Xie at home, and the two quarreled so fiercely that the sky was dark and the roof was about to be overturned. Finn Xie couldn't stand it anymore and secretly called Asher Guan.

The heavy snow had paralyzed most of the traffic routes in the capital. To this day, Finn Xie still found it incredible that Asher Guan had actually persuaded his driver to take a detour.

Grandma was the first to notice that Finn Xie was acting strange. She asked him where he was going so late at night. Finn Xie whispered, "I'm going to stay at Asher Guan's house for a few days."

After saying that, Finn Xie hurried downstairs, not having time to look at the adults' expressions and shutting the door behind his grandmother's instructions. He just wanted to quickly run to Asher Guan who was waiting. The young man waiting downstairs was tall and graceful, and in the endless snow, he looked like a god.

Looking at Asher Guan like that, Finn Xie suddenly felt that this was not a spur of the moment runaway from home, but a battle for survival.
