Chapter 22: My Ship is BE?
Right after Yu Weixi got home, Feng Yan arrived as well.
There wasn’t much of a difference, really, but Yu Weixi refused to ride in the same car, so Feng Yan had no choice.
In any case, Feng Yan was used to it. Yu Weixi was a drama queen, the kind who made a scene out of everything.
After getting home and taking a shower with Yu Weixi, Niangao climbed into bed and opened The Coast’s Solitude to watch.
Yu Weixi hugged Niangao and watched along with him.
…
On a dark and quiet night, a light snow was falling. The beach was covered in a layer of white snow. The waves kissed the shore, making a regular and pleasant sound.
A tall man, with a jacket casually draped over him, walked along the beach, leaving a trail of footprints.
The man—the CEO played by Feng Yan—finally stopped in front of a seashell. He squatted down with an emotionless expression, as if he were a little bored, and casually picked up a seashell to look at.
Splash—
Then, something unexpected happened.
Water suddenly splashed on the surface of the sea in front of the man, and then a person appeared, flailing.
The man stared blankly at the person before him—long, soft silver hair, eyes so pure that one dared not look directly at them, a slender figure…
What was most eye-catching was the silver-blue fishtail that was faintly visible on the surface of the water. Each scale presented a perfect appearance under the moonlight.
Good heavens…
The man’s eyes widened.
Is this… a merman?
The man wasn’t sure if what he was seeing was real or fake. He didn’t dare to make any rash moves, afraid of scaring the merman away, so he just stared blankly.
And the merman was currently lying on its stomach, looking at the man with a mix of fear and anticipation.
It wanted to talk to the man, to get closer to him, but it was also a little timid.
The two of them just looked at each other for a long time before the man carefully spoke, “What’s your name?”
Perhaps an ordinary person would not have believed it, or would have run away in fear. In any case, it shouldn’t have been like this—talking to this unknown creature, asking for his name.
But this merman was too beautiful, so beautiful that one only wanted to get closer, with no other thoughts in mind.
As if it were fated, the man couldn’t control his pounding heart.
The merman said timidly, “I… I’ve forgotten.”
The man subtly moved closer. “You… are a merman?”
The merman also asked, “Then are you a human? A real human?”
The man smiled. “Is there a fake one?”
“I don’t know…” The merman lowered his eyes and said nervously, “This is the first time someone has spoken to me. I, I don’t know if you’re real or fake.”
“Listen.” The man pointed to his own heart. “It’s beating here, so it’s real.”
The merman stared foolishly at the man’s heart.
Then, he took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and with a flick of his fishtail, he pounced on the man.
Before the man could get into a defensive posture, he only saw a silver head of hair in front of his chest.
The merman pressed his ear against the man’s chest, listening with anticipation and fear.
Thump-thump… thump-thump…
“I heard it.” Then, the merman looked up, his bright eyes looking at the man. “It’s so fast.”
Their noses were very close, but the merman didn’t understand the concept of distance at all. He was like a blank sheet of paper, not knowing anything, yet exuding a fatal charm.
The merman’s body was cold, carrying the chill and dampness of the sea, leaving a watermark on the man’s white shirt.
“Mmm.” The man smiled. “It’s gotten faster.”
This was the first encounter between the merman and the man.
Every night after that, the man would come to the beach to find the merman, and the merman would wait behind a rock every day. The man didn’t know how long he had waited, but he started going earlier and earlier, and every time, the merman was there.
They shared secrets, shared themselves. The long nights, every night, became interesting and new.
…
“Alright, go to sleep.”
Seeing Niangao engrossed in the show, Yu Weixi took the tablet away. “It’s very late. You should be sleeping.”
“Mmm…”
“You don’t understand it anyway.” Yu Weixi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Do you know what they’re talking about?”
Every night, the merman and the man, one lying in the sea, the other sitting on the shore, would speak to each other in soft whispers.
However, the dialogue was adapted from the original literary work, profound and plain. Most of the drama was just them talking like this, and the pace was very bland. Back then, everyone said that if it weren’t for the Film Emperor’s good acting and the merman being really beautiful, who would have the patience to listen.
But as long as one had the patience, it was a very, very beautiful movie.
“I don’t understand.” Niangao honestly shook his head, then grinned. “But it’s beautiful. Daddy and Yan-gege are so beautiful. But the story is so strange.”
“This is a…” Yu Weixi paused. “It’s actually a rather sad story.”
Niangao blinked. “They didn’t end up together in the end?”
“No.”
“Oh…”
Yu Weixi turned off the light and pulled the covers up for Niangao. Niangao paused, then suddenly pounced on him.
Yu Weixi immediately hugged Niangao and saw the little ball of fluff in his arms press his ear against his chest.
Niangao grabbed Yu Weixi’s clothes and smiled. “Listening to Daddy’s heartbeat.”
Yu Weixi was amused. He hugged him and lay down. “Is it fast?”
“Not fast.”
The two of them snuggled in the covers, playing the “listen to the heartbeat” game for a while before falling asleep.
The next day, the recording continued. At the same time, the first episode of all the contestants’ “interviews” and ratings was officially released that night.
On his way home, Yu Weixi opened his phone to check the situation, also estimating how much dark energy he could earn.
First, he had roasted Feng Yan, but Feng Yan’s fans were very rational and basically didn’t participate in fan wars. Besides, they had been fighting for four years and should be desensitized by now. This was nothing.
Second, he had roasted Xu Renjian, but Xu Renjian was an idiot to begin with. He figured not many people would flame him.
Then… there was only Luo Yucheng. After all, he had been bullying Luo Yucheng the entire time. He figured the white lotus’s fans would definitely be playing the victim everywhere, “Sob sob sob, our little Yu was bullied so badly by that Contrarian. Look, he’s so kind he won’t even fight back!”
Puke~
Yu Weixi was delighted, preparing to receive the dark energy value earned because of Luo Yucheng.
Then he opened Weibo and found that the whole world had changed.

What is this magical, world?!
@EntertainmentBaBaBa: Wow, have the Little Umbrellas’ house collapsed? Yu Weixi didn’t give Film Emperor Feng a single glance the entire time, but instead grabbed Luo Yucheng to roast. Repost @AllRoundTeenIdolOfficial: The “love-hate relationship” between the dance group and the vocal group is giving our Producer a headache, hahaha!

XXX: Wuwuwu I’m going to switch ships. This ship seems so good? The big shot who roasts everyone x the kind little white flower
XXX: Tsk tsk, the Little Umbrellas thought there would be some candy with the FengYu collaboration, but it ended up being a BE. I feel sorry for them. There was no interaction at all. On the contrary, Luo Yucheng’s interactions with both of them were quite ambiguous? Look at the way Luo Yucheng looks at Film Emperor Feng, and the awkward atmosphere between them?
XXX: If we’re talking about a strange atmosphere, isn’t the atmosphere between Luo Yucheng and Yu Weixi even stranger? XiLiXiaoyu is real.
Yu Weixi: “…”
The production team of All-Idol, on one hand, was worried that Yu Weixi’s roasting would go too far, and on the other hand, for the sake of topics and popularity, they directly guided the interaction between Yu Weixi and Luo Yucheng into a love-hate relationship and a ship. And on Luo Yucheng’s fans and team’s side, although they were disgusted on the surface and said not to bundle them, for the sake of popularity, they still quietly guided it, clinging to Yu Weixi in all sorts of ways, tightly binding him and leeching off him.
Luo’s fans: 5555 Yu Weixi is such a scumbag. He likes our little Yu but he’s still so fierce. Our little Yu is so gentle.
Yu Weixi: “…Fuck your mother.”
Fuck your mother’s pink filter! Fuck your mother’s publicly bickering but secretly flirting! Fuck your mother’s superfluous special effects text!
Fuck!
Yu Weixi was about to faint.
He would rather have the FengYu ship!
This XiLiXiaoyu… is it trying to make him puke every time he sees Luo Yucheng?!
Yu Weixi was at a loss for words.
Yu Weixi decided to go to the FengYu Super Topic to cleanse his eyes, but…
XXX: Wuwuwu my Yan-ge and Xixi!! Why are all the ships I ship BE!!
XXX: Sister, calm down. Look at the Super Topic rules. Don’t mourn. It’s a crack ship to begin with. We should be content that we got to see them on the same stage.
XXX: Agreed. Appearing in the same frame is candy. We Little Umbrellas are very content. Don’t start any trouble.
Yu Weixi: “…”
The Super Topic was a bleak scene.
He hadn’t earned any dark energy, and he had gained a new ship, and it was with Luo Yucheng.
This wasn’t the worst part. There was something even worse.
The matter with Xu Renjian had also been distorted.
Yu Weixi: “…”
