"Hello."
The extrely cold voice on the other side of the phone made Xia Shi freeze. She glanced at the person next to her and said cautiously, "Xiaxia, it’s mom."
Hearing Xia Shi’s voice, Bi Xia paused, her tone softening, "Mom, what’s up?"
Seeing Bi Xia return to normal, Xia Shi asked, "Did you pick up Fei?"
"Mm."
"That’s good. By the way, all the caran Fei brought are here, right next to . They’re asking when you guys are coming back."
"Oh," Bi Xia responded nonchalantly and looked at Xu Renfei, who had his head down and wasn’t speaking, "We’re coming back right away. Don’t worry about them for now; focus on preparing for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. By the way, did Uncle Chu and his people arrive?"
Xia Shi nodded, "Yes, they’re all here. Your Uncle Chu brought a lot of people. I’ll introduce soone to you when you get back."
Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "What? Is your little boyfriend here?"
"Oh, stop!" Xia Shi’s expression changed, surprising the program crew standing next to her. They heard Xia Shi continue, "Don’t talk nonsense. Hurry back. Xiaoyuan has been causing a fuss about seeing his Superman brother."
With that, she hung up the phone, her cheeks slightly red. She looked at the bemused program crew and felt a bit embarrassed, "Please have a seat for now. Xiaxia and Fei haven’t seen each other in a long ti; they might need to catch up or spar a bit. They’ll be back in a while."
Watching Xia Shi leave, the assistant holding her phone sighed as she spoke to her boss, "I finally understand why His Majesty is so good-looking. It’s all in the genes! The Empress Dowager is simply stunning!"
The assistant’s words received unanimous agreent, and everyone started chatting enthusiastically, forgetting about when Xu Renfei and Bi Xia would return.
The only one still clear-headed was their manager, who hadn’t seen Xia Shi in person. But even he was distracted, his mind replaying Xia Shi’s words...
Spar a bit... exchange a few moves...
Swallowing hard, the manager regretted not going with them and instead heading to the hospital for an injection... thinking about it, he smacked his own head, telling himself off. Acting in the entertainnt industry was affecting his mind! How could two bottoms be happy?! No, no, the more he thought about it, the weirder it got! Stop!
But... the manager started to worry again, thinking about Xu Renfei’s small build. If it truly was a normal sparring session... sigh, hopefully, His Majesty would go easy and only hit the body. If Xu Renfei ca back all bruised up, who knows how the dia would spin it.
Bi Xia placed her phone in a designated spot and looked coolly at Xu Renfei, "So you couldn’t hold it and punched him?"
Xu Renfei nodded obediently, but when ntioning the incident, his usually charming eyes turned fierce, "My mother isn’t well, but it’s all their fault! An Yi bringing up my mother, he can’t bla for hitting him!"
Sighing lightly, Bi Xia checked the ti, started the engine, and headed back. Seeing Xu Renfei’s dejected look, Bi Xia said slowly, "Alright, I understand. But if you had any sense, you would have known it was a trap."
Xu Renfei pressed his lips together, "When it cos to my mom, my mind goes blank, and I revert to primal instincts."
"I can see that," Bi Xia drove at a steady pace, "But next ti, tell yourself to endure. There are plenty of ways to retaliate in this world, and you chose the most crude and straightforward one."
"Look at you. If you had waited until after the show, had soone follow An Yi, and caught him at a corner or alley on his way ho, bagged him and beat him up, then left him on the roadside, nothing would have happened."
Xu Renfei: Wow w(?Д?)w, I didn’t know that was an option!
Xu Renfei imdiately looked at Bi Xia with starry eyes, "Your Majesty, do you need more people in your harem? I can be a handyman!"
Bi Xia: "... I don’t accept idiots!"
