Ch18 - Lead by the Hand, Laugh

Note: I have decided to change welfare agency to orphanage. Changes have been made to past chapters.

Song Xuanhe was facing the door, so he saw Xiao Yuanmu at once. He also saw the cold expression on the other’s face and was a bit befuddled. “Your meeting is over?”

At this moment, the secretary took a step back. She turned around and smiled at Xiao Yuanmu. Women were sensitive to this type of thing, and so, she explained, “There was something on Mr. Song’s collar. I helped him wipe it off.”

After saying this, she waved the damp napkin in her hand, declaring her innocence.

Xiao Yuanmu didn’t say anything. Actually, although it was really easy to misunderstand things from that angle, from what he knew of Song Xuanhe, even if the other had had a change of affection or wanted to do something, he would not do it like this in the company so ostentatiously.

Only, when he saw Song Xuanhe so close to another person, he could feel a dark emotion brewing inside of him. Furthermore, the emotion hadn’t lessened even though he knew the truth.

The rest of the people filed out of the meeting room. The manager of the venture investment division saw Song Xuanhe and greeted him. The secretary found an excuse to leave.

Song Xuanhe got up and said, “Let’s go, ba. It’s just about time to eat.”

Tonight’s banquet was an important scene. The System had been reminding Song Xuanhe in his mind since the afternoon meeting. He had also told Xiao Yuanmu that they would be going out to eat today. He had waited for the other outside of the venture investment division, because the book had a line that said, “Song Xuanhe waited at the entrance to the venture investment division for Xiao Yuanmu.” Normally, he would have waited for him in the parking lot.

Xiao Yuanmu’s gaze swept over his slightly damp collar. He tightly pursed his lips and nodded. His expression was much colder than it was normally.

Song Xuanhe didn’t mind, seeing the other’s expression. He had originally wanted to reduce the contact he had with Xiao Yuanmu. Until they reached the private club the banquet was being held at today, he didn’t say a word.

The birthday party this time was no exception. When they entered the crowded club, there were both familiar third- and fourth-generation rich kids and several frequently seen faces from TV programs. There were quite a few big stars inside.

Xiao Yuanmu followed Song Xuanhe in. He watched the other skillfully chat with people from all sorts of backgrounds. He would occasionally hug someone if their relationship was close or get close and whisper something into the other’s ear. There was an absent-mindedness in his eyes, however. This unintentional show of irreverence and nobility made Xiao Yuanmu’s breathing suddenly slow. The fingers hanging by his side unconsciously curled up.

His chest felt stuffy. What followed was an unfathomable itch. Something had sprouted inside his heart, causing him to become absent-minded. He also wanted to cover the other’s eyes so that the other’s scope of vision would become narrow. It would be best if Song Xuanhe could only see him.

What kind of feeling was this?

Before Xiao Yuanmu could carefully think it over and find an answer, he saw someone pull Song Xuanhe over. That person smiled and asked, “Is this your little boyfriend?”

After saying this, the smiling person looked at Xiao Yuanmu with narrowed eyes and continued, “I heard that you were really planning on going steady with your new boyfriend. I didn’t believe it. But now that I’ve seen the person in real life, I believe it. You’ve got a good eye.”
