Chapter 99 - Extra – From Then On (2/2)
Cheng Zhi Chu was shocked. For some reason, he suddenly had the urge to cry. His eyes were red and he opened his mouth but for a long time he couldn’t say anything.
“As long as you’re happy, it’s enough for us.”
Mother Cheng rubbed his head. She was also a little choked up but she revealed a gentle smile.
“Bai Yi is a good child. You have to cherish him.”
“I will.” Cheng Zhi Chu nodded solemnly.
18
“You have to cherish Zhi Chu that child. If you lose him, you probably won’t meet anyone else………”
At the same time, the old man from the Bai family is also seriously guiding Bai Yi.
The old man had always had to deal with Bai Yi because both of them didn’t have a good temper. Since young, Bai Yi had never listened to his words and would often anger the old man until his eyes were bulging. He would even repeatedly punish him with his stick. If not for someone else stopping him, he would have broken his walking stick multiple times.
Time passed and the old man no longer reprimanded Bai Yi. Afterall, Bai Yi wouldn’t listen to him anyway but this time he felt that he needed to personally instruct him for him to feel more at ease. Although he is always speaking bad about Bai Yi, he still hoped that this child will live safely and happily.
“Don’t worry grandfather.”
However, this time Bai Yi just smiled faintly at him and he responded to his words: “We will be very happy in the future.”
The old man was stunned for a few seconds. Hundreds of emotions mixed inside him. There was a faint ambiguous sensation of gratification.
However, he had lived a long life and he could no longer say anything heartfelt. He just waved his hand and said: “Sit next to me tonight when we have dinner.”
However, that evening Bai Yi didn’t have dinner with his family.
“He received permission from his parents and is now living together with Junior Cheng.”
Bai Xi Xing who was forced to be the messenger smiled stiffly as he gave the old man this news: “So he moved his things out this afternoon and went to their new home……..”
For a moment, the entire room was silent.
After a while, the old man’s angry roars reverberated through the windows.
“Kick him out of the Bai family! Don’t let him ever come back!!”

Bai Yi and Cheng Zhi Chu now live together. Their house is located near the university where Cheng Zhi Chu studied at.
Their furniture was also chosen together and all the furnishings in the room were done personally by them. The space was small, but it was cozy and just enough for two people.
However, when choosing furniture Bai Yi would stand in front of all kinds of furniture and fall into a long period of silence.
One of the aftermaths of soul fusion was that he had become even more picky and he found nothing pleasing to the eye. In the end, Cheng Zhi Chu had to make the final decision regarding the furniture.
20
On the day when the new home was set up, Cheng Zhi Chu was very excited. It was especially so when he saw the big bed. He liked it very much. It was wide and it was moderately hard. It was just like his dream bed.
Bai Yi was very considerate. Knowing that Cheng Zhi Chu liked this bed, he allowed Cheng Zhi Chu to use the bed to its maximum potential at night and then lie on the bed for the whole day the next day.
Cheng Zhi Chu no longer dared to say that he liked the bed.
21
However, because they had only just formally moved in together, Bai Yi was too enthusiastic. He continued to let Cheng Zhi Chu ‘like’ the bed. In less than two weeks, there was a problem with the mattress, and it began to make creaking sounds.
At the beginning Cheng Zhi Chu endured. After all, it was something that they had just bought, and it wasn’t cheap. He didn’t want to only use it for a little more than a week and change it.
But when he saw the piece of paper stuck on the door, he couldn’t endure it any longer. That very night, the mattress was changed.
The contents of the note was:
Hello neighbour,
I don’t mean to offend you but I think it’s time for you to change your mattress. Every time I go to bed, I would always hear creaking sounds. Although the soundproofing of the house should be good but for some reason, the noises are very loud and clear. My ears are fine but my teeth can’t stand it anymore.
I hope you can consider my proposal!
One of your friendly neighbours.
“Look at this!”
Cheng Zhi Chu with a bright red face slapped the note onto the table and pushed it over to Bai Yi.
“The neighbour has made a complaint. You….Can’t you hold back a little?!”
22
Bai Yi reflected deeply. He expressed that he will no longer overuse the bed in the bedroom in the future.
The sofa in the living room and the bathtub in the bathroom now share the workload of the bed, effectively reducing its burden.
The neighbour left another note to express their gratitude.
However, Cheng Zhi Chu felt deep regret. Why did he have to activate a new attribute in Bai Yi ———- He didn’t want the mirror to also take a share of the bed’s workload!
23
Sometimes, Bai Yi would accompany Cheng Zhi Chu to university. When he went to the university the first time, his appearance was too outstanding and it caused a small sensation in the campus.
Bai Yi was then blacklisted by the teachers and he was not allowed to enter the classrooms because he was definitely not a student of the university and would affect the order in the classroom. As long as he was there, the students wouldn’t be able to focus on studying and would look at him while secretly gossiping.
So Bai Yi could only wait alone in an empty classroom until class ended. Cheng Zhi Chu hurriedly rushed to the classroom where Bai Yi waited only to see that the seats near Bai Yi were filled up by girls who were self-studying.
They’re clearly not immersed in their studies……
Cheng Zhi Chu’s heart went sour. He pursed his lips and walked over to Bai Yi. Pulling at his sleeves he said in a small voice: “Let’s go.”
Bai Yi who was originally indifferent saw him come over and instantly revealed a gentle smile. He nodded slightly and cooperatively stood up: “Which classroom is your next class at?”
“………” Cheng Zhi Chu and Bai Yi went out. After a few seconds of silence, he said: “Not going. Let’s go back.”
“Class was cancelled?”
“No, I don’t want to attend anymore.” Cheng Zhi Chu was both sour and angry. Holding Bai Yi’s hand, he dragged him out of the university. “They’re all looking at you……I want to send you back and not let them look.”
“Zhi Chu…………”
Bai Yi looked at him for a moment. He suddenly stopped and looked fixatedly at him: “Are you jealous?”
“…………”
Cheng Zhi Chu’s face went red. He spoke with some embarrassment: “I can get jealous can’t I?”
“Of course you can.”
Bai Yi felt sweet. He couldn’t help but hold Cheng Zhi Chu in a hug. He bowed his head and kissed him on the lips. He chucked lightly.
“Don’t eat vinegar (: Jealousy), you can just eat me.”
“I only belong to you alone.”
24
In the end, the person who was eaten up in the evening was Cheng Zhi Chu.
25
Cheng Zhi Chu liked to play games, especially card games. Despite clearly having bad luck, he still played them tirelessly.
However, his luck was just very poor. He was unfortunate with almost everything that he played but he didn’t want to rely on the coin’s power because he felt that it didn’t give him that sense of accomplishment.
This time, he fell through ten consecutive times. He felt extremely frustrated and was about to vomit blood. At this moment, he looked over at Bai Yi who was sitting nearby with his tablet. He couldn’t help but poke him and pass his phone over.
“Bai Yi, help me with this.”
“Okay.”
Bai Yi smiled and obediently received the phone. He helped Cheng Zhi Chu pick the cards.
Cheng Zhi Chu immediately moved to his side. He looked forward to the picture inside. If it’s Bai Yi, he would definit———
However, the result was that Bai Yi’s luck was worse than his.
“How can this be……..”
Cheng Zhi Chu’s heart was bleeding. He couldn’t bear look at the tragic situation on his phone and he threw the phone aside.
“Sorry.” Bai Yi rubbed his hair. He said apologetically, “I’ll charge up your funds.”
“No need, no need. I was just playing casually. No need to give me gold. It’s just a going to be a waste.”
Cheng Zhi Chu quickly waved his hand to gesture to Bai Yi that he didn’t need to worry. At this moment he suddenly remembered that Bai Yi used to possess good luck but it was completely taken away by Mr. Mu. His heart suddenly hurt and he couldn’t help but move to hug Bai Yi.
“It’s okay, it’s all in the past.”
Seeing Cheng Zhi Chu’s expression, Bai Yi could guess what he was thinking. He smiled and kissed his cheek.
“Not to mention, I still have my own good luck.”
“I have you.”
“You are my greatest fortune.”
26
“What are you guys talking about?”
The little demon snuck out from the coin and fluttered his wings. Holding the phone up and using the remaining ten attempts, it drew out 6 six star cards and 4 five star cards. They were all cards that Cheng Zhi Chu didn’t have.
He returned the phone back to Cheng Zhi Chu and Bai Yi.
“Unlucky people have no right to talk.”
27
That night, the little demon was pegged onto the clothesline and was hung out to dry for an entire night. He wailed the whole time and was almost about to become dried demon jerky.
28
Cheng Zhi Chu looked at the new six star cards on his screen for a long time before reluctantly putting his phone down.
Bai Yi had gone to shower first and Cheng Zhi Chu who was bored laid on the bed waiting for him to come out. He saw the tablet that Bai Yi was using light up. It appears to have received a message.
He didn’t plan on peeking and he only subconsciously glanced at it but he found himself unable to move away his eyes. He immediately picked up the tablet and confirmed the message.
The source of the message was Bai Xi Xing. The content written was: “I think you can consider this brand. Their custom-made rings are very unique. Maybe you and Junior Cheng will like it.”
Ring? The ring that Bai Yi and senior is discussing about……..Is it what he think it means?
Cheng Zhi Chu’s mood was a mess. Suddenly, a hand reached over from behind to take the tablet in his hand. It was followed by Bai Yi’s voice which carried a hint of a smile.
“Don’t peek.”
“Bai Yi……….”
Cheng Zhi Chu looked up at Bai Yi. His voice was trembling slightly.
“What to do, you saw it.”
Bai Yi smiled a little helplessly. He held Cheng Zhi Chu in his arms and kissed his lips. He said: “Since you saw it, I won’t be able to surprise you. Although it’s a pity, I feel more reassured now since we can go and pick it together.”
“Zhi Chu, would you be willing to come and choose our wedding rings?”
“Of course I’m willing……”
Cheng Zhi Chu choked out a response as he hugged Bai Yi back.
29
They will be together forever.
