Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen: (Real) Fish and Hamster You Can’t Have Both
It was a meteor shower.
A real scene of raining stars.
A large number of meteors shot out from the same direction in the sky. As they fell, the starlight spread out in a flash as it brightened the dark sky, similar to how it lit up Xiao Yu’s eyes.
The night sky within the mountains was very clear. A meteor with a little tail lagging behind it whistled past as the bright light sparkled. It was extremely clear as if it was within reach.
It was astoundingly beautiful.
Yan Jin stood behind Xiao Yu. It was unclear if he was watching the meteor shower or looking at Xiao Yu that was underneath the falling stars.
Under such circumstances, it was strange for him to forget to bring an electronic device to record this beautiful scene.
After a short while, Yan Jin softly reminded, “Remember to make a wish.”
Xiao Yu nodded solemnly as he never tore his gaze apart from the night sky.
Legend said that for every meteor that fell, a soul would be heading to the heavens, bringing along the wishes that people had made.
Xiao Yu knew that he should be making a wish. He wanted to make a wish. However, perhaps his brain cells were too distracted by the enchanting scene before him that his emotional state was in chaos. It was in disorder like butterflies dancing in the air, making it impossible to focus.
So it turned out that there was a meteor shower today.
This was his first time seeing a meteor shower.
In the city, the night sky always seemed unreal. It was hazy and faraway. In addition to that, he had been immersed in work, occupied all night for all those years. Such a miraculous scene was probably impossible to see from the Internet in his previous life.
Was there ever such a day in his previous life?
Xiao Yu could not remember.
Maybe not.
…… it was Yan Jin again.
It was Yan Jin again who fulfilled all these beautiful experiences that he had wished for in his previous lifetime.
Xiao Yu lifted his head even higher. If he didn’t do that, he would have trouble controlling the sadness in his eyes.
He wasn’t sure why, but during this blissful time together, he could not help but wonder –
If Yan Jin knew about his real identity, would he feel that he was not a person worthy of all his efforts?
Regardless of whether it was this absolutely beautiful meteor shower or the thoughts that were more touching than this starry night, Xiao Yu never thought that he would be lucky enough to have them.
……
The short-lived astronomic marvel of the universe soon faded away. It was so fast that Xiao Yu did not have a chance to make a wish.
After the sudden miraculous burst was a long, long silence. Millions of bright lights that combusted into nothingness left the most perfect song as it finally returned to darkness.
“Squeak.” Yan Jin.
“Hm?”
“Squeak.” Thank you.
“That’s too plain.”
Yan Jin lifted Xiao Yu higher and said, “A kiss maybe?”
Xiao Yu pushed away Yan Jin’s big face, expressing his despise for Yan Jin’s chairman character to act cute.
Seeing that his hamster was unwilling to take initiative, the chairman leaned forward to kiss that little stomach.
“Squeakkk!”
Yan Jin’s character setting was fickle.
“What did you wish for?”
“Squeakk.” It won’t come true if I say it, so I’m not telling you.
“Squeakk.” What did you wish for?
“Hmm…”
“Squeakk.” Don’t use my excuse.
“I hope that Fishy’s wish will come true.”
“Squeakk!” Are you an idiot? How is that meaningful?
“Sharing my luck with you isn’t meaningful?”
The night breeze was strong as Yan Jin held Xiao Yu close to his chest. His voice was gentler than the night sky.
“After all, I don’t have any wish to fulfill any more.”
……
The short holiday soon came to an end as the hamster and human began their journey back home.
This time, Xiao Yu did not throw a tantrum and refuse to leave.
He was an understanding hamster after all. Seeing how Yan Jin’s mobile had over a hundred messages, urging him to return, his conscience did feel uncomfortable.
Although Yan Jin was a little dumb when dealing with him, he was also a chairman, a person who played a critical role in YL.
He could not let any major incidents happen just like the previous time.
The incident that happened with the deal was still a traumatic event for Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu could not understand Chairman Yan’s logic for giving up a deal worth a few million dollars just like that. Thus, he had no choice but to moderate his own little temper.
If something were to happen, Yan Jin may not feel the heartache, but Xiao Yu would on his behalf.
In fact, Xiao Yu’s uneasy conscience was meaningless. Be it the previous time or today, Yan Jin’s conscience did not feel a pinch.
If Yan Jin’s holiday trips were inversely proportional to YL’s achievements, whereas his holiday trips were directly proportional to Xiao Yu’s happiness… which also meant that Xiao Yu’s happiness was inversely proportional against YL’s achievements, then Yan Jin…
Would not mind shutting down YL at all.
Such a theory was not an exaggeration. Many people might not understand it if they heard that. However, the reason why they could not understand was simply because many people in the industry had no idea what YL meant to Yan Jin.
In the near future where things would be exposed, people might feel that it was unnecessary to operate YL after all.
Of course, all of that was something to be taken up later in writing.
Right now, Xiao Yu was facing a very, very big problem.
To say, or not to say.
Regarding his real identity, he had been struggling with it for over a month.
No, no, no, maybe it had started during the Heart Lock incident.
The more indulged Yan Jin was towards him, the guiltier he felt for lying to Yan Jin about this matter. At the same time, it made it more difficult to reveal his identity.
