YM778.TV Chapter 67.1
Shen Xingsui gasped and said, I, Ill do it myself.
Fu Jinxiao was a little surprised. The actor raised his eyebrows, half jokingly said, Why, is there a bomb in your box?
No
Shen Xingsuis face was a little red. He didnt know how to explain his extensive collection without making himself look like an obsessive fan.
Yes, I can do it myself. Shen Xingsui explained while carrying the suitcase away from Fu Jinxiao. But his eyes met Fu Jinxiaos dark and deep eyes again. This actor seemed to always be able to peer deep inside his soul. This made him nervous. H-how can I let you do this kind of rough work?
Fu Jinxiao looked at him with great interest. He continued to tease, Well, its okay if I do it occasionally, no?
Shen Xingsui was choked. This actor was bad! He was weak with this kind of teasing But still, his grip on his suitcase was iron-hard. No no need.
Fu Jinxiao knew when to stop. He smiled softly as he looked at Shen Xingsuis death grip. Alright, alright. Im just kidding.
Shen Xingsui sighed in relief.
Youve been out for so long, at least you need to call home. Fu Jinxiao stepped out and said, Since I invited you into my home, Ill call Auntie Xu in your stead.
With that out-of-nowhere excuse, Fu Jinxiao left Shen Xingsui alone. He knew that pushing Shen Xingsui too far would be detrimental to their relationship. He knew the line he shouldnt cross.
But Shen Xingsui was still a little hesitant. He always felt that Fu Jinxiao was a little displeased, so when he passed by, he still called nervously, Teacher Fu, I
Fu Jinxiao stopped. He was still in his casual attire, and didnt exude his usual noble aura. He looked way approachable, and that made Shen Xingsui unknowingly relaxed. He glanced at Shen Xingsui, his voice was full of magnetic gentleness. Dont be so nervous, Suisui. Just tell me if you need something.
Shen Xingsui froze, it seemed that this was the first time Fu Jinxiao called him with Suisui. He couldnt understand the meaning behind Fu Jinxiaos mysterious gaze towards him. So, he shrugged it off.
Fu Jinxiao continued, We are equal. I will respect your boundaries. So no need to be nervous. If you dont want me to see whats inside, I wont see it.
Shen Xingsuis tense heart seemed to be relieved suddenly.
It was magical how Fu Jinxiao the unattainable idol was the person who understood him the best. He might be the flower at the mountaintops, but he felt approachable. Like he would descend to Shen Xingsui, and they will
Shen Xingsui dismissed his line of thoughts. It was going nowhere.
Still.
He thought that he might just fall deeper for Fu Jinxiao.
Fu Jinxiao put the phone aside and said to him, Go, your Wang-jie is still waiting for you.
Shen Xingsui nodded.
The phone had already hung up, but Wang Meican was still waiting for an answer. Shen Xingsui squatted down and began to try to unpack the suitcase. This suitcase was a 50-yuan inferior suitcase he bought randomly on the street when he was poor. At that time, he was going to participate in the filming of Starlight, so he needed a big enough suitcase to contain his belongings. But with his limited funds, he could only afford his one.
Strange, why cant the lock be opened?
Shen Xingsui found out that this crappy suitcase might have been dropped somewhere today, so the lock was stuck.
No way Shen Xingsui got a little desperate as he mumbled to himself, Why cant I open it, should I pick it? I dont know how to pick a lock at all.
Wait.
He knew someone who could pick a lock.
Shen Xingsui remembered the scene when Fu Jinxiao used a copper wire to pick the lock of a door in that tower. His skill was admirable.
But
No way, Shen Xingsui covered his face in shame. He couldnt let Fu Jinxiao come near. Its too embarrassing. Just now, he forbade Fu Jinxiao to see whats inside, so how could he ask the actor to pick the lock on this suitcase now? Where would his face be?
Shen Xingsui was in a dilemma for quite some time. When Fu Jinxiao came back, he came to see Shen Xingsui looked like he was questioning about the meaning of life.
Fu Jinxiao poured a glass of water and put it beside the youth. He casually asked, Have you already sent the photo to Wang-jie?
No Shen Xingsui blushed even more. His neck was flushed red now. I cant open this suitcases lock.
Fu Jinxiao didnt expect that to come out of Shen Xingsuis mouth: What?
The youths blush probably has reached down his chest. Still, he decided to rip the bandaid off in one go, so he elaborated, I dont know whats wrong with the suitcase. Either the lock was stuck, or something lodged inside and it prevented me from opening it. Ill go home tomorrow and study it.
Fu Jinxiao looked at the offending object, then at Shen Xingsui. He never saw someone go that red.
Its kinda funny, despite his mortification.
wait, what did he mean by going home tomorrow to open the suitcase?
Fu Jinxiaos mood dropped down. He put the water glass back on the table, and said slowly, What are you going to do when you go home?
Shen Xingsui didnt expect this question, so he answered hesitantly, Smash it, break it open?
Huh? Fu Jinxiao mercilessly said, That lock is a push-button type. It is not as easy to break open as other locks. Plus, have you considered that forcing it open that way might break whats inside?
Shen Xingsui was frightened.
Inside were all treasures that were still miraculously left intact! It was his precious collection! If he accidentally damaged it he might pass out from crying himself hoarse.
Thinking of this, Shen Xingsui became anxious and helpless, Then, what should we do?
Fu Jinxiao sat lazily on the sofa, and unhurriedly offered his service, Well, I have learned a little about lock-picking, maybe I can try
Shen Xingsui was very grateful, as if seeing a savior. He already forgot the whole thing about not wanting to ask for Fu Jinxiaos help after denying him in the first place because of fright. Then, I ask for your help, Teacher Fu!
A smile flashed across Fu Jinxiaos eyes. Like a hunter with a net, watching patiently for his prey to fall into the trap. On top of that, his poor little prey was even very grateful to him.
Fu Jinxiao took a phenomenal ten minutes to crack open the offending lock. His hands were very nimble in opening the suitcase. He twisted the wire he took from somewhere, then there was a click, and the suitcase was finally unlocked.
Shen Xingsui was overjoyed, Great! Thank you very much!!
Fu Jinxiao said, The lock cylinder inside is just old.
The box suitcase slowly opened, and finally only a gap was exposed. Shen Xingsui remembered it belatedly, and rushed over to hug the suitcase to cover it up. He was very afraid Fu Jinxiao had seen whats inside. He was so nervous that he even stuttered a little. Ah, uhm, again, thank you very, very much.
A strong tension and fear surged into his heart, and his eyes froze for a moment. He stared at Fu Jinxiao for a moment.
Fu Jinxiao squatted on the spot, the cold light of the living room fell on him, his head was lowered, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
Shen Xingsui felt very uneasy.
After a while, Fu Jinxiao finally raised his head to look at him. The mans expression was unfathomable. Shen Xingsui couldnt guess what the actor was thinking.
Then, Fu Jinxiao smiled gently. Is that very precious to you?
Shen Xingsui could only reply, I, you
Fu Jinxiao said slowly, Okay, if those items are very precious to you well, my advice is be careful. Especially because you dont want it to be stolen.
For some reason, the way Actor Fu said the word be careful had some hidden meaning to it. For the nth time this night, Shen Xingsuis earlobes blushed again.
