Chapter 67: We Are Biological Brothers!
The sky was already completely dark. The moonlight was as bright as sand, and through the bedroom window, it left a faint shadow on the floor.
Chi Xiasheng closed the bedroom door for Wen Shu and left quietly.
But before he reached the living room, he was hugged by the wailing Wen Nian.
He quickly held onto the railing on the side to steady himself, so as not to be pushed to the ground by him.
“What are you doing? Niannian, you’re so heavy!”
Wen Nian relaxed his grip a little, but he still held onto him, not willing to let go.
“Xiaxia! You’re my biological younger brother! Ahh! I should have thought of it earlier. The merman race is almost extinct. How could there be other merman cubs wandering outside!”
Wen Nian’s small eyes were shining brightly, which made Chi Xiasheng can’t help but smile.
“I didn’t expect it either.”
These past two days, because of the matter of Su Chimian being Wen Shu’s child, his mentality had been on the verge of collapse. His whole mind was in a mess, and he had not thought about this problem from other aspects at all.
It could only be said that the person involved is always confused. The more it was related to oneself, the more it was like being covered by a veil, which could not be lifted or guessed.
“Brother Pei is still smart. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to acknowledge each other!”
Wen Nian pulled his arm and went upstairs again.
“What’s wrong?”
Chi Xiasheng was dragged back to the bedroom by him in a daze and was pushed onto a chair.
“Of course, it’s a live stream. To announce our brotherhood!”
As he spoke, his eyes lit up again, and he ran to the cabinet and took out his dinosaur pajamas.
“Xiaxia, quickly put on this clothes that Mom bought. We’ll wear matching clothes and blind the netizens’ eyes!”
Seeing him take out that one-piece pajama, he had a bad premonition.
As expected, the next moment, the guess in his heart became a reality.
“I don’t think so. I think my clothes are quite nice.”
He looked down at the light-colored sweatshirt on his body and said, struggling.
“Xiaxia!” Wen Nian put his hands on his hips and looked at him with a serious expression, pouting his small mouth. “This is the first time we appear in front of the camera as biological brothers. Naturally, we have to face the audience with the most full image. How can you be so perfunctory? Quickly put on your clothes!”
He was stunned by his righteous words and was speechless for a moment.
Under his fierce gaze, he stiffly went back to the room and changed into that light green dinosaur pajama.
Wen Shu had bought three sets of this pajama in different sizes as gifts for the three of them.
But Pei Zhixuan and Chi Xiasheng had only tried it on once before they quickly put it in the cabinet. Only Wen Nian particularly liked this kind of various small animal pajamas and often wore them out.
But his favorite dinosaur pajama had always been treasured by him, saying that he would only wear it out at a suitable time.
For him, this kind of important matter of acknowledging relatives was the most suitable time!
In the room.
Just as he put on the clothes and turned to go out, he suddenly froze.
Why am I so obedient?
And isn’t this action of announcing his identity a bit too sudden?
After all, he was still a small artist with some traffic. He felt that he still needed to report this kind of live stream to his agent.
Just as he took out his phone and told his agent the whole story, Wen Nian walked over and, seeing his younger brother obediently put on the matching clothes, he happily hugged him and rubbed his face against his.
“Let’s go live, Xiaxia! I’m so happy today!”
He looked down at Wen Nian’s crystal clear and shining eyes, and his heart was so soft that it had long since melted into a puddle of water.
“Me too. Today is the happiest day of my twenty-odd years.”
What he had been looking forward to, what he had been hoping for, had all become a reality at this moment.
It was too dreamy and happy, so much so that he felt that this might be a dream he was having.
But this dream was too beautiful and tempting, just like the match that the little match girl had lit in winter. In the flame, there were the relatives he longed for the most, and the warmth that was within reach.
It’s so good, he thought with a smile.
He had had this dream for more than twenty years, but only when he was in it did he realize that his previous dreams were not even one ten-thousandth as beautiful as now.
After he was happy, he bounced and pulled him to his bedroom.
The layout of the bedrooms on the second floor was the same, but he didn’t need the small living room outside, so he had changed the room outside the bedroom into a live stream room.
He was also a little socially awkward with outsiders, so he would not go out if he could. And since his popularity was getting higher and higher, the company had agreed that he could live stream at home.
But there was a certain amount of live stream time every month. If he didn’t complete it, his basic salary would be deducted.
He skillfully turned on the camera in the live stream room, adjusted the sound equipment, and sat in front of the chair to talk to the netizens, waiting for more people to come in before sharing his joy with them.
“…That’s right, I’m not playing games today. Wait until everyone is here. I have a big good thing to tell everyone!”
As long as he didn’t see people, his little mouth could talk non-stop. His lively appearance was completely different from the shy appearance he had when he met strangers and hid behind Chi Xiasheng.
The netizens were also familiar with his talkative style. The comments were scrolling very fast, and they were interacting with him.
He looked at the words in the comments and, after a while, his eyes hurt.
Chi Xiasheng, who was holding a glass of water, pulled him back and put some distance between him and the screen.
“Niannian, be careful of your eyes. It’s not good to be short-sighted.”
He looked up and blinked his round eyes, asking, “Short-sighted? Is it the kind that wears glasses? Do you think I’ll look very literary if I wear glasses? Like Mom!”
He was a poor student and was very envious of a cultured person like Wen Shu, who had even gone to school before.
Seeing him starting to gesture what kind of glasses would look good on him, Chi Xiasheng shook his head helplessly.
“You can’t rely on dressing up for your inner self. You have to read more books, Niannian.”
Hearing the word “reading,” he immediately became discouraged. He didn’t even look at the comments anymore and propped his face up with his hands, escaping reality in great depression.
When he spoke, the netizens recognized his voice and the comments scrolled even faster.
They all knew that he and Chi Xiasheng had a good relationship and would often see him show his face in the live stream. So, some of his song fans would also occasionally come to have a look, hoping to meet him one day.
Speaking of which, his fan base was also very strange.
Logically, with his looks, the fastest to accumulate should be girlfriend fans and face fans, but he was not.
He had been slandered so badly before that the netizens felt sorry for him, so he had more “mom fans.” And since his song “Deep Sea” was so powerful, song fans directly occupied seventy to eighty percent of his fan base, all waiting for him to release a new song and worrying about his career.
So, although they didn’t see him show his face, the song fans recognized his voice as soon as they heard it and immediately started to spam the comments.
[Chi Xiasheng is hiding so well! What are you going to use to repay the song you owe me?!]
[I’m begging you, okay! Can you give me a clear version of “Deep Sea”? That part of the lyrics that wasn’t recorded is driving me crazy!]
He lowered his head and put down the water glass, his face right in front of the camera.
The clear, magnified beauty directly made the audience become screaming chickens.
[Ahhh, this face, it’s so perfect!]
[Motherly love has changed. Sisters, I might have to temporarily leave the mom fan team. Smoking.jpg]
He looked at the netizens’ funny comments, his red lips slightly curved, and he let out a light laugh.
“So many people. The new song hasn’t been decided yet. But I’ve been listening to another song recently. I can sing it for you.”
He was still struggling with the matter of studying, and the live stream had just started. It was not yet the time with the most traffic. He couldn’t let the scene get cold, so he simply went to Pei Zhixuan’s place to borrow a guitar and sing a song for them to transition.
Although his agent and Cheng Heng had not yet settled on the new song, he was still constantly practicing and learning online with his teacher at night when he had no work.
This song he sang, “Warm Sun,” was a song he had recently heard that had really touched him.
Unlike the sadness and melancholy of “Deep Sea,” this song was filled with a faint warmth. Although not a single word was about happiness, every word revealed a heart-warming feeling.
This song was too fitting for his current state of mind, warm and cozy, as if it had directly brought people under the warm sun in spring, feeling the sunlight on their skin, so beautiful it was like a dream.
The netizens heard him start to sing with a microphone. The moment his voice came out, almost everyone was immersed in it.
The speed of the comments slowed down. When he finished the song, the audience was still smiling, holding their faces and staring at the phone screen in a daze.
“Alright, I’m done singing.”
His voice pulled the audience’s thoughts back to reality, and they instantly felt not so good.
[It’s over? I felt like I was floating in the clouds just now!]
[So beautiful! Ahhhhhhhhhh!]
[It’s over, this song doesn’t have a clear version either…]
[Can you go to a recording studio to sing? I don’t want to listen to this kind of song with a noisy background anymore. If you don’t have money, can we crowdfund for you?]
He looked at the comments from the netizens and raised an eyebrow helplessly. “This song doesn’t need a copyright. If it’s a cover, it will definitely need a copyright. Please understand.”
This was a very niche song. Before he sang it, almost no one knew of its existence.
But after he sang it, the song quickly topped the trending topics with great speed.
Many of the people who were tricked into the live stream saw him and accused him of being heartless!
He didn’t care at all about what would happen after the netizens heard the song and didn’t even give a clear version!
He saw that the number of viewers in the background was increasing, and the voices of condemnation were also getting louder. He coughed lightly and pulled Wen Nian out.
“Niannian, everyone is here.”
At this time, he had just finished drinking his little milk, and there were still white milk stains around his mouth. Hearing this, he quickly wiped the milk dry and put on a straight face to maintain his image.
“Alright, alright, everyone be quiet. Xiaxia is also very tired. And today I have something important to announce to everyone!”
He pressed his little face against the screen, pretending to be serious, but his sparkling eyes betrayed his happy emotions. “Xiaxia and I are biological brothers! Isn’t it shocking? Haha, I scared you, didn’t I!”
The netizens had just recovered from the beautiful singing. When they suddenly heard his words, they were indeed shocked.
