Recently, due to a bug when splitting chapters, it was only possible to upload using whole numbers, which is why recent releases ended up with a higher chapter number than the actual chapter number. The chapters already uploaded and their respective novels can no longer be fixed unless we edit and re-upload them chapter by chapter(Chapters content are okay, just the number in the list is incorrect), but that would take a lot of time. Therefore, those uploaded in that way will remain as they are. The bug has been fixed(lasted 1 day), as seen with the recently uploaded novels, which can be split into parts and everything works as usual. From now on, all new content will be uploaded in correct order as before the bug happens. If time permits in the future, we may attempt to reorganize the previously affected chapters.

After Becoming a Merman, I Became a Heartthrob 78


Chapter 78: The Grand Finale

The interview scene was rarely quiet.

Although Chi Xiasheng had a somewhat cold personality, he was very polite to the staff he worked with and would hardly ever say anything too harsh.

This time, his confrontation with the reporter was unexpected by everyone.

A look of annoyance flashed across the reporter’s face. He awkwardly pulled at the corner of his mouth, knowing that he shouldn’t continue to ask, but he still couldn’t bear to let go of this big scoop he had gotten.

Chi Xiasheng lost his patience with this uncooperative interview. He tapped the table and brought the others’ attention back.

“That’s all for today.”

Just a few simple words, filled with coldness and impatience.

He stood up and tidied his clothes, then was escorted away by Li Ge and his assistant.

Li Ge looked back and gave the reporter a warning look, which made his heart feel a little guilty.

This unpleasant incident was quickly forgotten by Chi Xiasheng. Li Ge also subsequently canceled this collaboration, and the two sides parted on bad terms.

After leaving, the moment he sat in the car, he saw the man who had been waiting for him.

In the presence of outsiders, Sheng Sheng was still relatively restrained and reserved. He nodded gently to the assistant and greeted him, maintaining a calm and self-possessed demeanor.

But after half a month of deep, soul-baring communication, he had long since seen through this person’s superficial pretense!

He was simply a beast in human clothing!

No, that’s not right, he thought. This person usually doesn’t like to wear clothes when doing that. He likes to be honest with each other…

Like a primitive, fierce beast, he naturally dislikes being restrained, and has no technique, relying entirely on brute force.

Therefore, the moment he saw the light in his eyes, his waist couldn’t help but feel sore.

“What are you looking at?”

He even wanted to cover his eyes. They were a little too fierce, and it was really a bit unbearable.

“You look very good today.”

The moment he saw him, he moved closer and leaned against his shoulder. Even though there was so much space, he insisted on sitting next to him.

He felt the air was a little stuffy and pushed him away.

“Don’t talk about that. I know what you’re thinking. Can’t you think less about that kind of thing?”

He really didn’t understand. It seemed like he was the one in heat, right?

But he was much more active than him, with a bit of a “can’t stop” attitude.

“What am I thinking?”

He raised an eyebrow and directly put his arm around his waist.

He didn’t even want to expose him and glanced at him. “There are other people in the car. Can you be a little more restrained?”

The assistant & agent in the driver’s seat quickly closed their eyes and pretended to be blind.

Only then did he hum in satisfaction and bury his head in his neck and shoulder, taking a deep breath of his scent.

“By the way, when you go to the restaurant later, remember to be polite to my mom and the others. Don’t be too reckless…”

At this, his actions indeed became much more restrained. He looked up and carefully noted the key points.

Today, since everyone was free, he wanted to formally introduce him to his family.

He had been preparing for today for several days.

For this, he had even specially booked the most famous sky restaurant in Hai City and had cleared the place to treat his family to a meal.

But when they reached the entrance of the restaurant, he was still inevitably nervous.

“It’s okay. My mom knows you. My brother is also very gentle. Niannian is the most carefree. You don’t have to worry.”

He felt that his family members were all open-minded and kind and would not make things difficult for him.

But he didn’t think so. From the few times they had met, he could tell how dissatisfied Pei Zhixuan was with those who wanted to get close to him.

After taking a few deep breaths, he followed him in.

The top floor of the restaurant was made of transparent glass. With one glance, you could see the deep starry sky. Below the huge glass window was the brightly lit city, so beautiful that it was hard to look away.

Wen Nian had never eaten in a place like this before. He was lying on the glass window, his face squashed.

“Mom! Big brother, this place is so big!!”

Hearing the echo of his own voice, he was amused by himself and bent over, laughing for a while.

Wen Shu was carefully applying her lipstick and didn’t bother with her silly son at all.

Today was an important day to meet Xiaxia’s boyfriend. She naturally had to dress up carefully to support him.

Pei Zhixuan, who was sitting upright in his chair, had a serious expression. He drank the water in his glass in one gulp, his fingers tightly gripping the side of the glass, wishing he could crush him like this glass.

Seeing his expression, she slapped him on the head. “Wipe that dead look off your face. What if you ruin Xiaxia’s good thing?! He’s finally brought a boyfriend home. Don’t you dare mess it up, or I’ll kick you back into the sea.”

This threat was too great. He could only curse in his heart and force a smile.

Only then did she nod in satisfaction. “That’s right… hey, Xiaxia, over here!”

He walked upstairs and, seeing her sitting by the window and waving at him, he quickly ran over.

“Mom, how long have you been waiting? Should we order first?”

She smiled gently and said, “You guys order first.” Her gaze then fell on Sheng Sheng behind him, and she nodded to herself.

Not bad, tall and has a good temperament. His eyes are on Xiaxia and not wandering. Very good!

He greeted the few of them, pulled out a chair for him, and then sat down.

Pei Zhixuan didn’t want to respond at first, but she glanced at him coldly from the side, and he could only nod helplessly as a greeting.

Sheng Sheng was quite surprised. He had originally thought he would definitely hit a wall with him today, but he never expected it to be surprisingly easy.

Chi Xiasheng and Wen Nian were already huddled together, their heads together as they looked at the menu and ordered. They didn’t notice the undercurrents between the other three at all.

“This looks so delicious. Let’s order two!”

Wen Nian couldn’t read French and could only order two fancy-looking dishes based on the pictures.

He also smiled and nodded. After ordering, he handed the menu to her. “Mom, see if you want to add anything.”

This meal was harmonious and joyful.

The only dissatisfied one, Pei Zhixuan, could only secretly glare at him, but he dodged them all.

He still thoughtfully poured water and served food for him, which made her on the other side more and more satisfied, and him more and more cold.

He just felt that this moment of being accompanied by his family and his lover was very beautiful. He took out his phone and took a picture, wanting to freeze this moment.

Just as he had finished taking the picture, a piece of news about him was pushed to his phone.

He glanced at the headline and clicked on it out of curiosity, only to find that the content inside was a picture of him and Sheng Sheng in the car just now.

At that time, he was still holding his waist, and the two of them were as intimate as if they were in a passionate kiss.

As expected, this picture attracted many people to click on it. In just a few minutes, it had sent this trending topic to a high position.

[So exciting, I’m even blushing a little!]
[Who is the man you’re hugging, Chi Xiasheng?! You can’t have a scandal when you’ve just become famous!]
[I don’t think it’s a big deal. He has more song fans, so it doesn’t affect his career much.]
[Ahhh, I recognize him. It’s Sheng Sheng!]
[The one who was rumored to be in a marriage alliance with him? No way?! Is it confirmed?]

The moment the other half was exposed, the heat on Weibo shot up another notch.

Fortunately, although the discussion was heated, because he had had messy scandals with him before, this news was not so difficult to accept when it was exposed.

But Su Chengjian, who was always paying attention to his news, saw this picture and immediately said it must be fake!

Such a well-behaved child, he would never fall for such an insidious and cunning person!

Su Chengjian’s filter was already more than ten meters thick. He opened Weibo without any reason and immediately forwarded and refuted, [This is fake! Xiaxia won’t have a boyfriend!]

When the netizens saw his plastic biological father come out to refute, they were all blown away and watched the show.

[Wow, he’s anxious, he’s anxious. He’s anxious!]
[It’s none of your business. Weren’t you quite protective of your fake son before! Now you have no right to control what he does!]
[Just get a boyfriend, piss you off, piss you off!]

Among his fans, they all detested this person, Su Chengjian.

They were always on his side. Although they said on the surface that he still had a hundred billion inheritance from a wealthy family, in fact, they wished he would go bankrupt directly!

Su Chengjian looked at the netizens’ words, which were all stabbing him in the heart, and his blood pressure directly soared.

The assistant on the side pressed the bell without surprise and called the nurse and doctor in.

Since he had stayed in the hospital for a month that time, he could be said to be living in the hospital now, and his body had completely collapsed.

It wasn’t that he had any terminal illness. He had a breath stuck in his heart, a heavy weight pressing on his chest, which could not be relieved or discharged. He could only let himself decline.

If it was an illness, it could still be treated, but if it was a psychological problem, it was almost incurable.

The doctor came to give him a diagnosis and wanted to persuade him to think more openly, but he didn’t listen after being told a thousand times, so he could only shake his head and go out.

He took the medicine and then quickly sat up straight to get his phone and look.

Chi Xiasheng had already finished his meal at this time and was standing by the window, discussing with his agent whether to admit it directly.

“You’re still in your rising period right now. Silence is the most beneficial approach for you.”

He knew that what Li Ge said was reasonable, and every word was for his own good, but…

He turned his head and saw him staring at him without blinking. He suddenly remembered the time when he had first seen Little Black open his eyes.

Wet and soft, his eyes were full of his own figure.

He needed to be needed too much. At that time, he had nothing and lived in the dust, but there was still a small life looking at him with pleading eyes, needing him.

In the end, his heart softened, and he once again compromised with him. “Forget it, let’s make it public.”

He raised a triumphant smile and bent down to kiss his forehead.

While everyone was arguing, his and Sheng Sheng’s Weibo simultaneously posted an official announcement photo.

But his post also included a family photo that had just been taken.

In the photo, Wen Nian was making a V-sign with a sparkling gaze, Wen Shu was sitting on the side with a doting expression, and even Pei Zhixuan had a rare gentle smile.

The background was the city with its thousands of lights, brilliant and bustling, warm and enthusiastic.
