In an instant, Rong Yi’s ears turned red, and his gaze lowered, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips.
“How deliberate this person is! Why are they so deliberate?â€
But he couldn’t resist it!
Now everyone not only knows that Easy is Yin’s wife,
but they also know that Easy is Yin’s treasure.
He lowered his head and couldn’t help but laugh, listening to the muffled screams and suppressed voices from the other side of the wall. With a steady voice and a calm expression, he said, “Let’s go.â€
When did Xiao Yin ever call him like this? It’s too deliberate.
But then Rong Yi remembered that day in the rest area of the alliance building, under the warm yellow light. He called him like that, half-kneeling on the ground, his lips lightly touching his hand.
Rong Yi tried to keep a steady expression. Calm and composed.
Walking with the others, he didn’t know where to look, avoiding eye contact with Xiao Yin the whole way, never lifting his gaze.
So embarrassing.
The expressions of the others present were also quite varied. Those who worked together were somewhat better, as they didn’t dare to scream in front of their boss.
A few of the VIT juniors’ faces turned purple. They wanted to scream and laugh, but in the end, they tried to show a composed team image in front of the media, each appearing calm.
The expression on Ci She’s face read, “Is it necessary? It’s normal to be in a relationship.â€
Hui Mao conveyed with its eyes, “Exactly, we’ve already gotten used to it.â€
Wu Dao Gu transmitted his thoughts, saying, “Look, look, a bunch of inexperienced people. Only now they realize Yin’s ambitious plans.â€
A group of people with hidden motives left orderly and got into the car.
Xiao Yin didn’t do anything out of the ordinary anymore because it was a club-wide overtime workday. Xiao Yin had reserved an entire restaurant, and the car had more people than usual.
In the boss’s car, Xiao Yin had two assistants accompanying him.
The boss usually sat in the back seat, so Assistant Xiao Zhou went to the front passenger seat willingly. Assistant Xiao Tang got in the car and sat conscientiously in the center of the back seat.
Shortly afterward, Xiao Tang noticed something.
He was sitting in the exact middle of Rong Yi and Xiao Yin’s positions.
As a result, there was a person between Rong Yi and Xiao Yin.
Help!
What did he do!
Breaking up a loving couple would bring divine punishment!
The viewers in the live stream were still actively discussing the “darling†that was uttered.
[“So amazing! Brother Yin is so daring, openly calling his partner ‘darling’.â€]
[“So impressive! No need to speculate anymore, it’s confirmed.â€
[“I’m going to check that post. Did the original poster reply?â€]
…
Rong Yi was also reading the post.
Inside the car, there were five people, and the atmosphere was silent. Rong Yi and Xiao Yin were separated by Xiao Tang.
Rong Yi could clearly sense Xiao Tang’s embarrassment.
He also felt awkward because of Xiao Tang’s awkwardness.
He leaned against the window, pretending to play with his phone but actually trying to turn his face away, appearing nonchalant.
The post, which had skyrocketed in popularity in the esports community, had quickly flipped through dozens of pages. The original poster had been updating it in real-time since the start of the live stream.
“Let me tell you something interesting.â€
The comments section replied, [Go on.]
After several pages of silence, a new update appeared.
[—Damn, why did he have to say that! Boss, I’ve been diligently hiding behind the scenes for you, and now you’ve gone and made it public!]
[Forget about acting, everyone! My boss is now openly calling his partner ‘darling’ in the live stream. Everyone in the industry knows now.]
[Boss, this makes my post look so dumb.jpg]
[Ah, should I resign? Will the two big bosses fire me? I’ll be socially dead from now on! Help!]
[Forget it, when in dire straits, just eat candy. I’ll continue.]
[At that time, we knew they were dating, but we thought they would keep it low-key, be teammate-friends, or reconcile with old acquaintances.]
[All of that would have stayed private, until one day!! A colleague from another department knocked on the boss’s door in the morning, calling him to wake up and work.]
[Do you know what happened? The boss wasn’t in his own room.]
[He was in the partner’s room—]
[My colleague was almost scared to death!]
[The boss even stood behind the door, discussing work with the colleague, acting completely normal.]
[We still don’t know if there was one person or two people in the room that day. Was it just the partner who woke up or did they both wake up together?]
…
Rong Yi leaned against the window, silently scrolling through the posts.
This host is a young girl from their HR department, very capable and with surprisingly decent writing skills.
Looking at this perspective of him and Xiao Yin’s story, it seems quite intriguing.
It’s a bit addictive.
It’s good material for shipping.
But if the parties involved see the post, it might be too embarrassing for them.
Rong Yi decided to pretend that he didn’t have time to read it.
At the same time, his social media accounts started buzzing with notifications.
[Commentator Lin Yi]: “Help me say this, your husband is awesome.â€
Rong Yi replied: “Why don’t you say it yourself if you want to praise someone?â€
[Commentator Lin Yi]: “Well, I need the guts for that, darling~â€
Rong Yi took a deep breath and blocked the notifications for five minutes.
After five minutes.
[Commentator Lin Yi]: “This guy is so ruthless in his actions, take a look.â€
Lin Yi sent Rong Yi a few screenshots.
Lin Yi was truly a well-informed insider in the industry. While everyone in the circle was enthusiastically discussing this mind-blowing gossip, some individuals chose to remain silent, clearly feeling quite unhappy.
RS (Rong Yi’s team) remained silent, and even the bystanders didn’t say a word. Someone even asked about the former team captain’s love life, to which Lang Bai replied with a blunt “Get lost.â€
The backstage producer, who had been trying to get Rong Yi’s contact information from Lin Yi, posted a vague message on their social media: “Can you please calm down? Why is this everywhere? Get lost!! [Angry face][Angry face][Sweating][Crying]â€
A fan of Rong Yi, who was an outsider, wrote: “Damn it, my wife—he has become Yin’s wife—I can’t compete with him online or offline—my wife, sob sob sob—â€
…
Everyone was talking, and the atmosphere was lively for a while.
Finally, the term “#Yin’s Kiss Mark#†found its rightful place, and everyone confirmed the parties involved. As a result, the term “#Yin Easy#†started trending again, even attracting attention overseas.
QILIN’s official website, which had been quiet for years, unexpectedly shared this news.
To be fair, QILIN was no longer just a gaming club. It had become a cradle for sending players from the North American region to various major competition regions.Best video game consoles
Every year, champions would leave, and new champions would emerge. Xiao Yin had left the team a long time ago, and Easy was originally a player from another region. Yet, they still received such a significant response.
[Oh my god, QILIN headquarters reposted it! Brother Yin has such an incredible reputation!]
[Previously, when XX celebrities and XX founder billionaires went to QILIN headquarters, QILIN didn’t even make a move. Their official account only posts New Year’s greetings every year.]
[Awesome!!!]
Rong Yi had been thinking that this wave of hype might continue.
After scrolling through social media for a while, he realized that the excitement wouldn’t die down anytime soon, even for the next ten days or half a month.
Now, thousands of people were trying to reach him, wanting to know the exclusive news. There were even media outlets seeking interviews, which was quite absurd.
Rong Yi decided to shut down all his social media platforms and started playing a QTE game to improve his reaction speed.Best video game consoles
The vehicle continued its smooth journey, and the atmosphere inside remained suffocatingly silent.
Xiao Tang sat upright in the middle, as quiet as a quail.
Xiao Yin’s voice came through to Xiao Tang.
Indifferent and calm.
“What are you looking at?â€
It took Rong Yi two to three seconds to realize that Xiao Yin was asking him.
“Me?â€
Rong Yi shook his phone screen in his direction. “Playing a QTE mobile game.â€Best video game consoles
Xiao Yin said, “Hmm.â€
Xiao Tang wanted to cry for help.
He clearly felt that his presence was hindering his boss’s freedom to act.
How could the two big shots be so silent and awkward? They should be different in ordinary situations!
In the midst of silence, the restaurant finally arrived.
Xiao Tang and Xiao Zhou, the two assistants, quickly fled from the car and merged into the employee crowd, keeping their distance from the players.
The VIT players had a separate table, just like before.
While waiting for the dishes to arrive, the only activity naturally became browsing their phones.
Rong Yi wanted to pretend not to know, but it was impossible.
Seeing him on his phone, Ci She asked proactively, “Captain, have you been online?â€
Rong Yi remained calm and composed, like still water. “Not yet. I’m jotting down next week’s training plan. Why?â€
Ci She shrank back awkwardly and exchanged a glance with Wu Dao Gu.
Wu Dao Gu cleared his throat. “Hey, I found an interesting post. It seems to be about you and Brother Yin, Captain.â€
Rong Yi didn’t even blink. “Hmm.â€
Xiao Yin looked at the menu beside him, motionless like a mountain, exuding a chilling coldness.
Wu Dao Gu’s attempt failed, and Hui Mao took over the task.
Under the expectations of everyone, Hui Mao spoke hesitantly, “Captain, aren’t you interested?â€
“It’s fine.†Rong Yi, who had already read and reread the post countless times, didn’t show any change in expression. He had to maintain this demeanor. “You can send it to me, and I’ll take a look if I have time.â€
Hui Mao succeeded, but not entirely. Rong Yi played his part too well, and the few kids couldn’t liven up the atmosphere, lacking enthusiasm.
They simply joined the conversation openly and started interacting with their online friends.
[Hui Mao]: “I also have some inside information. The boss is a hypocrite. When ordering food, he only cares about the person he’s interested in.â€
[Lonely Butterfly Horizon]: “You guys just realized? I knew something was off on the first day. The boss is all about talent and appearance.â€
Only Ci She, hiding behind a pseudonym, kept praising his beloved captain and fanning the flames.
[Someone More Amazing than Amazing]: “Let me tell you all! The boss is just average! Very ordinary! Give me two more years, and I can kick him off the throne! The captain has a tough time following him, working overtime every day! The boss doesn’t care about anyone! End of report.â€
Everyone: “What is this person ranting about? Get out of here! Don’t interrupt our gossip!â€
Ci She was banned from posting for a hundred years.
Silenced, Ci She quietly put down his phone and sipped his soup.
Rong Yi also took a sip of soup, casually glancing upwards.
A table with five people.
All glued to their phones.
The few assistants were gossiping, as expected, but Xiao Yin was also looking at his phone.
Normally, Xiao Yin never played with his phone during meals and hardly spoke. The epitome of “silence is golden.â€
But now Xiao Yin was browsing on his phone.
Rong Yi thought that maybe he was checking financial reports or something.
But soon, as he raised his head to add soup, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Yin’s phone screen.
Xiao Yin was reading a post.
Until they finished the meal, Rong Yi didn’t have any alone time with Xiao Yin.
Everyone was signaling wildly, trying to create a space for them, but in reality, it was difficult for them to relax and be together.
Before, they could have one-on-one conversations, but now whenever they were together, countless curious and excited eyes were on them.
Xiao Yin walked ahead, Rong Yi followed.
There was half a meter of distance between them, not far but not close, and they didn’t speak much.
Xiao Yin had already put away his phone. When they reached the parking lot, he said, “Let me drive, Captain.â€
The driver immediately understood and said, “I’ll take Xiao Tang and Xiao Zhou in another car.â€
Xiao Yin nodded, held the car door open for Rong Yi, and then took the driver’s seat.
Rong Yi closed the car door, fastened his seatbelt.
Just as he finished fastening it, he raised his head and met Xiao Yin’s gaze.
Profound.
Rong Yi understood what was happening, “Ah, I forgot. You wanted to…â€
Fasten his seatbelt.
Previously, Xiao Yin always fastened Rong Yi’s seatbelt himself, as if he enjoyed doing it.
“It’s fine.†Xiao Yin returned his gaze, casually saying, “Leave it to me next time.â€
Rong Yi’s ears felt warm, and he whispered, “Hmm, okay.â€
The car fell into silence, just like when they arrived.
Just like before.
They didn’t speak much, but for some reason, Rong Yi felt a bit nervous. Maybe it was because they had been under scrutiny today, and the pressure suddenly increased.
After a while, Rong Yi adjusted his mood, exhaled, and stopped being nervous.
At a red light, Xiao Yin glanced at him.
“Nervous?â€
“Not nervous,†Rong Yi replied.
Xiao Yin turned his head back, then took the initiative to reach out and lightly hold his fingertips. “I’m sorry, I didn’t think it through. You like to keep a low profile.â€
“It’s not about that.†Rong Yi gently pinched his fingertips back, trying to calm himself, “I’m just not used to it.â€
Rong Yi took a shallow breath. “I’ll get used to it.â€
His fingertips were slightly cool, and as they held each other for a brief moment, they warmed up under Xiao Yin’s touch.
The red light turned green, and Xiao Yin retracted his hand, continuing to drive forward.
“Did you read that post?â€
Xiao Yin suddenly asked, not looking at Rong Yi, his voice casual.
Rong Yi was waiting for the rest of the sentence, but Xiao Yin didn’t continue.
Back at the villa, Rong Yi went to his room to change clothes first.
With just one sentence, Xiao Yin sparked his curiosity.
Rong Yi lay on the bed and reopened the post.
After a night’s worth of scrolling, the thread had become too long to read. Rong Yi directly went to the last page to see what the latest updates were.
But the original poster hadn’t updated.
However, all the new replies were quoting the same post from one user ID.
[!!! Holy shit, the real person?]
[Holy shit, holy shit— I’ve never seen anything like this in eight hundred lifetimes—]
[Holy shit, the boss himself appeared!]
