Chapter 137 - End of Main Text.
This chapter is also sponsored by Alice! Sincerely, thank you.
Liang Chulin and Liao Su did not stay in Beijing for too long. Originally, You Liangxing wanted to bring them to his house for a visit considering how it was rare for them to be in the Imperial Capital, but he did not expect that before he even managed to voice it, his two good friends would express their strong rejection.
I can’t, I’m not going, forget it.
You Liangxing: “……”
Left without a choice, the four of them only ate a few meals together in the two short days that they stayed in Beijing. When they were bidding each other farewell, only Liao Su and Liang Chulin went back to City A, whereas Kang Shengzhe, like the brazen and shameless man he was, refused to go. Fortunately enough for him, winter vacation had started back in City A, and You Liangxing could only agree to let him stay since he had no endurance against his tantrums and rolling.
Once the consent was given, Kang Shengzhe proceeded to transfer ‘the life of cohabitation’ he had in City A to the Imperial Capital, and after being separated for a month, they started living together again.
The resulting stickiness goes without saying; for the next half a month, You Liangxing’s biological clock was destroyed and he woke up two hours later than he usually would every day. Every level of YouLiang TV started singing a long and hateful song, teasing that henceforth, the monarch would not be attending morning court…
While You Liangxing in his straits of distress, Kang Shengzhe was so unrestrained he was about to fly. Other than eating, sleeping and gaming, he finally cultivated a new hobby and this hobby usually took place at night. With two people cooperating, it was particularly good at burning calories!
Really, it could not be better! It was stronger than running and whatever he did to train his abdominal muscles!
His days passed happily, but Kang Shengzhe did not relax in terms of his proper business either. After he signed the contract, he issued a post on Weibo to publicise and disseminate the fact that he was switching over to YouLiang TV from MengMao. Concurrently, he was helping Little Sword Fairy finalise the procedures necessary for switching companies in private.
Speaking of Little Sword Fairy, he had been considering whether he should jump the manger for a long time now but he had always remained undecided. With Kang Shengzhe acting as his guarantor, he contemplated and hesitated thrice before he finally chose to leave together with Kang Shengzhe.
— I have always trusted my eyesight when it came to hugging thighs, KK, my vision is superb when it comes to people.
Kang Shengzhe then sent the drafted contract to Little Sword Fairy. Initially, Little Sword Fairy had been joking around but after he read through it, he immediately went silent. He did not expect that— he genuinely did not expect that the sum of money he would receive in his contract with Kang Shengzhe acting as the middleman would unexpectedly be this high. Seven million; even the anchors who were the pillars of their website did not have such a price.
Little Sword Fairy was shocked and touched, and he did not know what to say in the moment.
— KK……
Kang Shengzhe told him: — You deserve it.
Little Sword Fairy was so touched he kept sniffling: — Good brother, this thigh of yours is as thick as I had expected, you didn’t forget your friends when you became rich! Old brother, bring me to soar!
Kang Shengzhe was too lazy to speak more, and Little Sword Fairy sent him another message stating: — Right, speaking of which, you’re frankly too capable as well. You actually managed to get acquainted with the boss of YouLiang TV in secret. How did you do it?
Kang Shengzhe never had the intention to hide it from him from the beginning. Thus, he replied: — That boss is Liang Liang ah.
Little Sword Fairy: — …… Who?
Kang Shengzhe: — Liang Liang ah.
Little Sword Fairy: — ……
Liang Liang???? The handsome school senior Sister Liang from KK’s broadcasts, the one he came out of the closet with???
That Sister Liang was the company’s boss with the net worth of above a hundred million??
Little Sword Fairy could not be more shocked: — What the fuck! Awesome!
— Begging and asking this older brother to teach me how to online romance!
Kang Shengzhe: — You want to learn?
Little Sword Fairy: — I want to learn!!
Kang Shengzhe: — Go for plastic surgery.
Little Sword Fairy: — ……
It was impossible to chat with KK, he was never chatting with him again in this lifetime. Little Sword Fairy hugged his own highly price contract and decided to destroy the bridge after crossing the river: — Get lost!
Kang Shengzhe laughed and exited WeChat very quickly. However, not long after, Little Sword Fairy sent him another message again.
It was only one sentence, simple in construct: All the best for tonight.
It was very reasonable since he certainly had to put in the extra effort tonight. Afterall, today was rather special because it was the first day after Kang Shengzhe transferred to YouLiang TV, and it was the new starting point of his career.
Despite the huge echoes present in his comments after he had issued his Weibo with most of his fans declaring 【Where KK goes is where I’ll go】【Forever following KK】and【Moving houses with KK】, he could not put his heart down until he had the first live broadcast to serve as his evidence.
As the opening shot before opening the doors, the audience numbers had to be satisfactory in order to live up to Liang Liang’s expectations, and even Kang Shengzhe – a person who had never been concerned about results – was not exempt from having a serious headache over it.
With his heart dwelling on the matter, it need not be said that the preparatory work for the live broadcast was done with extreme seriousness. Kang Shengzhe even went to a beauty salon for the first time to shape himself up and his entire person was dressed up to the extent where he could pass off as a famous fashion model. It was only after he had done all the above that he obediently sat down in the residence he shared with You Liangxing and waited for the live broadcasting time to arrive.
Waiting and waiting, before the scheduled time arrived, You Liangxing came back home.
Kang Shengzhe was extremely shocked, “Don’t you have to work overtime for the next few days?”
You Liangxing said: “I’ll accompany you tonight.”
Kang Shengzhe’s heart softened and he had the slight urge to do some exercise but the current situation did not permit it. Thus, he could only squeeze into You Liangxing’s embrace and roll around to satisfy his craving for the time being.
With how close their bodies were, Kang Shengzhe discovered that You Liangxing’s frame was tensed up as if some nervousness was thrumming in his muscles. “… Liang Liang?”
You Liangxing said, “It’s nothing.”
Kang Shengzhe could not help but find it funny, “Even I’m not nervous, what are you being nervous for?”
You Liangxing did not answer and Kang Shengzhe grasped You Liangxing’s hand as he smiled. Suddenly, he felt the restlessness and anxiety which had been plaguing him for half a day sweep away cleanly.
What was this called?
Love triumphed over everything?
You Liangxing said: “Let me accompany you tonight.”
Kang Shengzhe said: “Aren’t you accompanying me now?”
You Liangxing added: “Accompany you to live broadcast.”
It was only then that Kang Shengzhe reacted. “Make an appearance on camera with me?”
You Liangxing said: “En.”
You Liangxing’s gaze was quiet and resolute, and it moved Kang Shengzhe’s heart to the extent where it crashed and stuck to the ground. Whatever worries he had about unsatisfactory results were pushed to the back of his mind. He hugged You Liangxing and played coquettish for a while and the time gradually grew closer. By then, not only was Kang Shengzhe not dispirited, he was terrifically high.
When the appointed time arrived, Kang Shengzhe opened the page that solely belonged to him in YouLiang TV. You Liangxing held his hand in encouragement and Kang Shengzhe nodded before he went live on his broadcast.
The camera frame appeared in an instant, with Kang Shengzhe and You Liangxing’s faces centred within it. Simultaneously, the number denoting the viewer count climbed at a speed that was indistinguishable to the eye.
The barrage of comments was like snow with its succession of layers.
&#k3010;AHHHHHHH KKKKKKKKKK!!! I’m here!!&#k3011;
【Hugging my KKKKKKKK!! We promised; be there or be square!!!】
【Not only did I not come alone, I even arranged for an entire group of friends to come as well, are you pleasantly surprised!! Are you stunned!!!】
【You should have thrown away that dog-like MengMao a long time ago!! KK, congratulations for moving into a new home!!!】
【Giving you all my support frantically!!!】
【I just want to say one line!! Where KK goes is where I’ll be!! KK, I love you!!!!!】
As people were expressing his feelings for KK in a frenzied manner, it was a matter of course that everyone noticed You Liangxing’s existence.
【I knew it!! What did I say!! Sister Liang will definitely be here today!!】
【Truly worthy of being called a frenetic husband protecting demon! The person lives up to his name!】
【On the first day of the new broadcast, Sister Liang is standing at the platform for KK!! Really touching!!】
【Ahhhhhh what ‘where KK goes is where I’ll be’, it’s obviously where Sister Liang goes is where I’ll be!!】
【Let me insert a sentence, Sister Liang, you’re way too handsome!! You’re too handsome, do you hear me!! I’m being truthful when I’m praising your handsomeness!!】
Although they knew that You Liangxing was male, the name they were accustomed to remained unchanged. Hence, when they saw You Liangxing, everyone continued to call him Sister Liang. Both You Liangxing and Kang Shengzhe smiled and greeted everyone.
“Good evening.”
The husband and wife were of one mind and their voices were in unison. The people in the live broadcasting room suffered from the double explosive assault that was their voices and face values.
【YI——-!!! I’m dead I’m dead I’m dead!! Someone save me quickly!!】
【AHHHHHHHHHHHHH this fan of the Truly Fragrant CP just made a pig noise!!!!】
【So excited I’m crying!! Why is life so blessed.】
【Complimenting KK and Sister Liang’s face values in a flurry!】
The audience count in the live broadcasting room steadily climbed to a higher point. Not only was it higher than the number at MengMao TV, it was even tending towards the possibility of breaking a record. And as to whether it was due to YouLiang TV’s exceptional publicity or that Kang Shengzhe and the Truly Fragrant CP’s power to rally people was remarkably fierce was something no one knew, but the results they had before them was far beyond Kang Shengzhe’s imagination.
This was the first time since he started live broadcasting where Kang Shengzhe felt that the increase of his fan count was a joyous thing. He was a little emotional and before anything had yet to begin, he could not help but say: “Thank you everyone.”
【…… Mother! What are you thanking us for!! This is what you deserve ah!!】
【I’ve never seen a thankful KK before… Uh, I’m afraid.】
【Why are you being conscious out of nowhere! KK should be unrestrained!!!】
Kang Shengzhe suddenly let out a snort and the atmosphere in the live broadcasting room boiled.
【Are you live broadcasting today!!】
【Play games together ah!! Play together with Sister Liang!! My god, I really can’t be more blessed!!】
【Seeing KK and Sister Liang’s face has given me a cure in life.】
Naturally, Kang Shengzhe wanted to start playing games. He logged into his main account and he was about to pull Liang Liang in when You Liangxing waved his hand gently before he addressed the camera. “I have something I want to say.”
With his delicate and pretty girlish voice that could soften people’s hearts adding onto the fact that You Liangxing was outrageously handsome, the striking contrast entranced all the fans in the live broadcasting room and their state of minds collapsed. Just looking at the comments alone, it was highly likely that people would believe you if you said that this was You Liangxing’s live broadcasting room.
【Speak speak speak speak speak!!!】
【Sure, of course, go ahead! Speak speak speak!!】
【Sister Liang, go ahead! I’m listening!】
Kang Shengzhe did not know what You Liangxing was going to say but he remained by You Liangxing’s side obediently, merely casting sidelong glances and listening carefully. Under the attention of millions of people, You Liangxing spoke earnestly with a serious expression: “I would like to welcome everyone for coming to YouLiang TV, on behalf of YouLiang TV, I would like to thank everyone for your confidence and choice.”
The live broadcasting room went silent for a moment for the tens of thousands of faces were at a loss.
【?????? On behalf of…… YouLiang TV????】
【Not on behalf of KK?? Did he make a mistake???】
【Why do I feel a little strange……】
【W-Wait!!! YouLiang TV??? Sister Liang??? Am I being delusional!??】
Kang Shengzhe did not think that You Liangxing would expose his own identity. Despite that, You Liangxing continued to speak: “Everyone did not hear incorrectly, I am speaking on behalf of YouLiang TV, and YouLiang is the name I gave the company. I am an executive at YouLiang TV and I’m also its legal representative.”
Live broadcasting room: ……
What????
WTF!!!!!
In the midst of the audience’s shock, You Liangxing carried through with his speech without stopping. He said: “Meeting KK was a coincidence, but KK coming to my side was not a coincidence. I hope that everyone can be our witnesses, if there comes a day where I take the initiative to break up with KK, everyone can blacken YouLiang TV for the rest of your life.”
The live broadcasting room finally exploded.
【Yi???? Sister Liang is the boss of YouLiang TV???? It’s not a joke???】
【Oh my god!! What kind of drama is this ah!! Let me get this straight!! KK and Sister Liang had an online romance, and later, not only was Sister Liang a handsome man with a girlish voice, he was also KK’s school senior and future boss???】
【That’s not right!! It’s not future boss!! Isn’t this considered as KK being provided for by Sister Liang!!! Started with a cyberlove, later married a handsome president??】
【Fuck me!!!】
【Did any of you recalled that a few months ago, a person called YouLiang TV smashed KK with fifty-two hundred thousand……】
【……】
【……】
【fuck fish fork fudge fook fuck fuck, did it already start back then!! Honestly speaking, Sister Liang as an actual president, which god wrote this ah!!!】
Despite the live broadcasting room exploding into pieces, Kang Shengzhe could not choke out a single word. He finally understood why You Liangxing’s body had been stretched taut before, it turns out he had been planning to say this speech before the live broadcasting room.
While the contents of his speech sounded simple, it was highly significant. Prior to this, Wang Lu had been worried about whether Liang Liang would completely forsake him if they were to break up one day. However, on the first day of KK’s live broadcast under his company, You Liangxing broke his way of retreat in front of everyone.
It was sudden and resolute.
In reaction to that, Kang Shengzhe’s eyes reddened and he could not get a word out.
The fans with keen sight in the live broadcasting room immediately captured the main point.
【KK’s eyes are red……】
【KK is about to cry.】
【Don’t cry KK!! Although I would have cried if it was me!!】
【KK was too touched… I’m very emotional too, in the future, I’m never forwarding kois again, no matter how kois I circulate, it’s not as effective as KK! This luck of his is heaven high!!】
Once he was done speaking, the courage that You Liangxing had mustered up dissipated and it was practically exhausted. Kang Shengzhe’s gaze was too deep with feelings and he found it difficult to be under it. Thus, he stood up in a hurry and told him to broadcast before he fled like he had been defeated.
Leaving Kang Shengzhe on his lonesome in front of the camera.
【Sister Liang ran away!!!】
【ahhhhhhh don’t run, wah!!!】
Kang Shengzhe stayed blank for a long time. When he finally recollected himself, he raised his phone and said: “En…… Then we’ll play some games……”
But even after staying on the team interface for a long time, Kang Shengzhe did not start the queue. Abruptly, he lifted his head and said: “Apologies, I’m really sorry but today’s live broadcast can’t go on, I’ll make up for it in future.”
Once he placed down his words, Kang Shengzhe shut off the broadcast and sprinted in the direction that You Liangxing had fled to.
The black screened live broadcasting room descended into frenzy!!!
【No way!!! KKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!! Come back here for me ah!!!】
【Previous commenter, don’t pretend to be stupid!! Come back your foot!! Go up!! Charge!! Push Sister Liang down!!】
【Yeah yeah yeah!! If you go up, just do it!! But don’t turn off your camera ah!!! ORZ!!! Shutting off the live broadcast is really going too fucking far!!!】
【Is it bad to live broadcast!! I’m begging you guys to live broadcast ah!!】
No one could have predicted that the first live broadcast Kang Shengzhe had after he moved over to YouLiang TV would end up with the awesome record of being the shortest live broadcast but accounting for the highest audience number ever held by an anchor.
The state of the live broadcasting room, however, was not in any of Kang Shengzhe’s considerations because the only thing he could think of after entering the room next door was to pull You Liangxing into his embrace. Originally, You Liangxing had been panicking in his mind, but once he was hugged, he became a little stunned.
“… Kang Shengzhe? The live broadcast?”
“Closed it.” Kang Shengzhe mumbled.
Closed it???
Was he joking? This was Kang Shengzhe’s first live broadcast, and it was unavoidable that You Liangxing would want to throw his temper. But when he lifted Kang Shengzhe’s big head and that person blinked, he saw two teardrops roll down his eyes.
He was crying.
You Liangxing’s heart immediately squeezed, and he said in distress: “What’s the matter?”
Kang Shengzhe said: “I’m touched.”
You Liangxing: “… Are you that touched?”
Kang Shengzhe: “I’m that touched.”
You Liangxing: “… Has your crying point always been this low?”
Kang Shengzhe said: “It has always been this low.”
As he said that, he nuzzled You Liangxing’s bosom and You Liangxing briefly lost his balance, causing him fall onto the bed.
Since he could do nothing about Kang Shengzhe, You Liangxing could only go along with the turns of his mood. After a long while, he sighed, saying: “Forget it.”
Kang Shengzhe hummed in lieu of speaking and You Liangxing said: “Get up.”
“No,” said Kang Shengzhe.
You Liangxing: “Get up! I have something I want to give to you.”
Hearing that, Kang Shengzhe moved his body away, equal parts believing and disbelieving. Borrowing his movement, You Liangxing pushed him away and slowly took out a square box from his shirt pocket. The box was bigger than most ring boxes and it was tied together with a red ribbon on top.
You Liangxing said: “For you.”
“Why?”
“No why, I just wanted to give it to you.”
Kang Shengzhe’s following actions were stiffer than a corpse; he pulled off the ribbon with the slowest speed possible and thus the structure of the present was eventually revealed.
It was a bank card.
Kang Shengzhe: “… What are you sending me a bank card for? I can’t accept it.”
You Liangxing replied, “Just accept it, it’s a family custom; a necessary procedure that needs to be done between dating and getting married.”
Kang Shengzhe knew that this card was of no value to You Liangxing. Compared to money, what was more important was its symbolic meaning, thus he asked: “How much money is inside?”
You Liangxing said: “Not much.”
Thoughts diverging to another tangent, Kang Shengzhe guessed: “Fifty-two thousand?”
You Liangxing shook his head which caused Kang Shengzhe’s eyebrows to jump. “Fifty-two hundred thousand?”
You Liangxing: “No.”
Kang Shengzhe: “…… 5.2 million?
You Liangxing: “……”
You Liangxing hesitated for a short beat before he said: “Multiply that by one three one four.”
Kang Shengzhe: “……”
All of a sudden, Kang Shengzhe felt like he had been afflicted by vertigo and both his legs went soft.
“… Can I not accept it?”
You Liangxing said: “Do you not want to get married with me?”
Kang Shengzhe: “……”
Within a second, Kang Shengzhe hid it within his arms and said: “If you don’t give it to me, I’ll press you for it!”
You Liangxing snorted, laughing.
Kang Shengzhe laughed too. While they were laughing, he said: “Liang Liang, I have a present I want to give you too.”
Kang Shengzhe had a present prepared as well? You Liangxing displayed some uncertainty as he said slowly, “What present?”
Kang Shengzhe picked up the red ribbon from You Liangxing’s box and wrapped it around his neck with deft fingers. Then, he knotted a pretty butterfly bow.
You Liangxing: “……”
Kang Shengzhe said: “Are you accepting it or not?”
You Liangxing: “……”
How could he not accept it, of course he was accepting it.
You Liangxing took apart the ribbon ceremoniously and said: “Kang Shengzhe and the next half of Kang Shengzhe’s life are all mine. Prior to this, I already declared that I’m not letting go of his hand, I’m never letting go.”
Kang Shengzhe revealed a smiling expression and said happily: “That works, those words embody the style of a president, I like it.”
You Liangxing laughed gently in reply.
Kang Shengzhe pouted his lips slightly and said: “President, kiss me.”
Very cooperatively, You Liangxing kissed him on the lips audibly.
Kang Shengzhe started giggling with laughter and as he continued to verbalise his joy, his eyes started getting red again.
You Liangxing’s heart was full of helplessness. “Why didn’t I know that you loved crying so much in the past?”
Kang Shengzhe said: “Maybe it’s because with every passing day, I like you more than the day before.”
You Liangxing: “Sour.”
Kang Shengzhe did not refute him. He went quiet for a while before he sighed with emotion: “Honestly speaking, I have this sudden feeling that it would be great if our story could have such a conclusion.”
His words might be sudden but You Liangxing could not help but ask, “Why?”
Kang Shengzhe replied: “Because I’m incredibly happy right now. If time could stand still at this moment, wouldn’t I be this happy forever?”
You Liangxing said: “Those words are incorrect.”
Kang Shengzhe: “How are they incorrect?”
You Liangxing said: “Because as we continue on, I will ensure that your every day in the future will be happier than it is right now.”
Kang Shengzhe: “……”
Kang Shengzhe felt like he was about to cry again.
Their surroundings were quiet, making their breathing extremely distinct. Immersed in the feelings of love, Kang Shengzhe opened his mouth and said: “Should we do it?”
You Liangxing: “……”
You Liangxing: “Not doing!”
Fine, we’re not doing it…… Don’t be fierce~!
Kang Shengzhe shrank his neck and asked: “Then, shall we play a game?”
Despite being filled with anger, You Liangxing said: “…… Playing.”
Kang Shengzhe’s eyes and brows curved, and his smile made it impossible for people to look away. “Hahaha.”
You Liangxing had a long face at first but as Kang Shengzhe continued to smile, he softened bit by bit. And later, he let out a soft sigh that was helpless and doting.
How did it come about?
He just knew.
The lifetime he had with Kang Shengzhe, this was just the beginning.
