PFC Chapter 77 A Crazy Confession
Chapter 77 A Crazy Confession
chapter 77
Xia Chu Nian prepared a very lavish feast, with everything she needed.
Meng Youcheng and Jiang Yuming arrived at her room, which, though small, was fully equipped and neatly organized.
The hot pot was still on that simple little table, and the uncooked dishes were placed on the ground on both sides...
The three sat cross-legged on the ground, smiling.
The girl put the vegetables into the pot. "You're really working hard! The veins in your neck are bulging, and the camera just happened to capture it. It even became a meme. Do you want to see it?"
Jiang Yuming thought for a moment, "Not really."
"It really doesn't look very good..."
Xia Chunian laughed and said, "Why are you working so hard? Don't you care about your image? Look at the others next to you, they're all controlling their expressions, and they're not as crazy as you!"
The boy shifted his gaze to Meng Youcheng, who remained silent beside him. "I think... Uncle is doing well."
"Oh my, tsk tsk tsk..."
Xia Chunian feigned disdain and said, "The person is still here, can't you be a little more discreet?"
Meng Youcheng belatedly glanced at the two of them, "What... were you just talking about?"
"Didn't you hear me?" the girl asked, looking at him suspiciously. "What were you thinking about?"
"I……"
Xia Chunian smiled and said, "Your precious nephew said he wanted you to be happy and not work so hard, so he forced himself to participate in the games..."
"Hehe, hahaha..."
Before he could finish speaking, the girl burst into laughter, "So sweet! She's so good to you. Hey, brother, you really have to cherish her!"
Meng Youcheng sighed and remained silent.
"By the way, have you checked your Weibo account?"
Xia Chunian finally got a little serious, "There are a lot of haters, they're attacking your comment section en masse, but it's okay, I'll take care of it for you!"
Meng Youcheng pulled out his phone with a hint of disbelief. "Really? I didn't see it at first...?"
The girl also took out her phone, opened Weibo, and said, "Look at this post. It says that Jiang Yuming looks very impolite, like he has no manners, and stands there like an idiot, pretending to be stupid and trying to confuse the issue..."
"I just checked his profile. He's a fan of Raymond Lam, but he's clearly a hater..."
"I took a quick look at your fans, and they're not very aggressive..."
"Look, this is my reply to that comment..."
The man looked down at the reply she was pointing to, and the boy next to him also leaned closer...
[Sister Xia: Your brother will be so happy to see this comment while he's working the sewing machine inside, knowing he has such a good son supporting him from the outside (heart emoji)]
Meng Youcheng stared at the girl in disbelief...
"You have 20 followers, but you haven't posted any content yet. How do you have so many followers?"
Xia Chunian laughed and said, "I often roam around various comment sections. I'm good at attacking people, and I have a lot of people who want me to be their apprentice. There are also a bunch of die-hard fans who want me to scold them..."
"sharp……!"
The girl waved her hand, "It's a small case. You're still looking at this one? It says Jiang Yuming isn't good-looking and he can't have his looks. It's a hater's comment..."
"Normally, this is Akiko's debut, and unless someone specifically hired him to post comments, they wouldn't usually say something like this in a newcomer's comment section..."
Meng Youcheng looked at his reply, seemingly understanding but not quite...
[Xia Jie: Is this how your mother taught you to talk to your dad? If you can't have it, don't eat it. You're just trying to show off and get attention. Don't hang around in your dad's comment section!]
"Awesome...!"
The man couldn't help but give her a thumbs up...
The rest of the content is roughly...
What's Sister Xia doing here?
I've always acknowledged Xia Jie's offensive prowess.
Xia Jie scolded me!
Xia Chunian's replies weren't limited to just these few; she hurled insults at all sorts of bizarre comments, one of which was particularly striking...
[Netizen C: This guy is so handsome, why is his phone screen white?]
Xia Jie: You're so naughty, you're castrated.
Meng Youcheng immediately smiled...
Her swearing skills are truly impressive. It seems she didn't use her full strength when she argued with Jiang Yuming earlier...
"Uncle..."
Jiang Yuming interrupted him...
Meng Youcheng was stunned, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"
Jiang Yuming said with a smile, "I've hardly ever seen you smile. How come you're smiling after looking at your phone for a while?"
The man was momentarily confused. "I... I rarely laugh? I remember I..."
"Uncle, I'm jealous."
Meng Youcheng looked puzzled. "Huh?!"
"You rarely laugh so genuinely. Every time you see me, it's not a genuine smile. But this time, seeing Sister Xia's comment, you laughed so happily..."
Jiang Yuming gazed at him affectionately, "Compared to me, don't you like Sister Xia more?"
"I……"
"Pfft, hahaha..."
Before Meng Youcheng could finish speaking, Xia Chunian burst into laughter, "How come I didn't notice? You're so jealous? You're even jealous of this kind of thing, it's hilarious, hahaha..."
"Your uncle would never like me. He'd like you, he'd never like me. Sister Xia has a sharp eye, she could tell at a glance that you two are a couple, don't be jealous..."
As she spoke, Xia Chunian reached out to pet the "puppy's" head, but stopped herself. "Don't be jealous of your sister, okay? Your uncle won't like me, and I won't like your uncle. He likes you, everyone can see that..."
Meng Youcheng wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to begin, so he remained silent.
Jiang Yuming's eyes lit up immediately. "Sis, you think so too? I also think my uncle likes me, you tell me..."
"Aren't we a good match? Aren't we a perfect couple? Aren't we well-suited to be together?"
Xia Chunian picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks, "Very good, very good, a perfect match, a perfect fit... hahaha..."
"Uncle..."
Jiang Yuming excitedly turned to look at Meng Youcheng, "Sister Xia said...we're a good match, you..."
The man casually patted his head. "What's suitable? You're still so young, just turned 19, and I'm already over 30. There's a huge age gap between us. I'm old enough to be your uncle..."
"It's alright, Uncle..."
The boy said excitedly, "I don't mind, I really don't mind. I like you, I get jealous easily, I really like you, can you believe me?"
Xia Chunian was eating hotpot nearby, watching the two of them with great interest...
Meng Youcheng glanced at her somewhat awkwardly...
The girl waved her hands and mouthed, "May you live a long and happy life together."
"No, you..."
"Uncle...!"
Jiang Yuming called out again, his eyes brimming with tears, "Don't you like me? Do you think I'm... disgusting? Uncle, actually..."
"I don't treat everyone like this. I didn't like boys before. I only like you, regardless of your gender. I just simply like you and want to be with you..."
"You don't know my life before. My brother and my father loved me in a way that was like imprisonment. I could only see them a few times a year. No one wanted to talk to me, no one wanted to care about me..."
"You're the first, Uncle. My dad told me that he named me Jiang Yuming because a fortune teller said that after experiencing a lot of pain, I would meet my sunshine. I feel that you are the sunshine in my life."
"Uncle, I love you, please don't reject me, okay?"
Meng Youcheng panicked immediately...
He knew the boy's feelings for him were special, and he knew this day would eventually come, but he never imagined it would arrive so soon...
Jiang Yuming is a crazy teenager...
His words seemed to be forcing Meng Youcheng to agree; each sentence pierced his heart, as if if he didn't agree, he would be a sinner burdened with guilt...
This is a negotiation tactic.
Having been around for so many years, Meng Youcheng could guess what was going on in his subconscious.
Yes, after all, Jiang Yuming's brother and father are both businessmen. Some things are innate, ingrained in their bones, including negotiation skills.
The man shifted his gaze...
"Would you like to drink?"
Xia Chunian was immediately shocked, her face full of confusion. She mouthed, "You're not going to care about him?"
"I asked you if you drink alcohol? What are you saying? I don't understand..."
At this moment, Jiang Yuming gazed at Meng Youcheng with deep affection, "Uncle...?"
The man poured himself a glass of baijiu (Chinese liquor), turned to the boy, and asked, "Would you like some? Can you drink?"
"I……?"
Meng Youcheng wanted to test him. He didn't know when it started, but he always wondered if Jiang Yuming was really naive.
Judging from what he just said, the boy is not naive. He uses coercion and enticement, which are clearly evident in his words, just like a seasoned businessman.
Is this ingrained in his DNA, or is he, like his former self, always pretending?
Meng Youcheng smiled and shifted his gaze. "It's normal not to drink. You're just a kid, how could you drink? Especially baijiu. I told you, you're too young, not suitable for dating yet. Wait a few years, until you're more grown up and able to..."
Jiang Yuming snatched the glass from his hand and downed it in one gulp. "I can drink. I'm not a child anymore. I'm not..."
[Just a special reminder: Jiang Yuming isn't pretending. He inherited that from his father; he's very good at weighing pros and cons. Subconsciously, when he hit someone before, he deliberately chose to do so when Meng Youcheng was leaving, and he hit him particularly hard because subconsciously he knew his brother would protect him.]
Jiang Yuming has always been very smart, and his actions have always been within controllable limits. However, he wasn't pretending, because deep down, he's just a naive teenager who believes in justice. This is also a setup.
