Chapter 138: Are you surprised? Dumbfounded with happiness? (1)

Su Yaya was completely oblivious to what was happening on the internet. She had a good sleep, a refreshing shower, and changed into her workout clothes to do some basic exercise.

She had always believed that even a beautiful body was obtained through constant practice. Her physique was already great but maintenance was important too.

When Chen Xiuqi woke up and finished washing, he left the bathroom and was greeted by the sight of her doing a split. Her body looked soft and flexible and her legs were long and straight. Bathed in the morning sunlight, she looked so dazzling that he couldn’t help but take out his phone and snap two pictures.

They came out beautifully and made her look like a fairy descended from the heavens.

Then, he suddenly remembered what Assistant Chen had reported to him the previous night. Some of the comments on the internet were very unpleasant to read. He opened his Weibo and posted the pictures he had just taken.

Chen Xiuqi V: Good morning, my lovely girlfriend! @Su Yayayaya (Attached image.jpg, image.jpg)

Assistant Chen created this Weibo account three or four years ago. The man himself rarely used it, and when he did, it was always for something work-related. There were zero posts related to his personal life.

Therefore, when Chen Xiuqi logged in after over eight months of inactivity, and published a personal post about his relationship with Su Yaya, his fans immediately went crazy. It was like adding a drop of cold water into a pan of hot oil.

Many of his fans were already restless because of the incident from the night before and left several questions on his Weibo. While some of them sent their blessings, most of them wanted to hear the truth from him.

Although the truth was already obvious, they were the stubborn type of people who refused to believe it unless it was confirmed by the man himself. There were even some scarier fans who would choose to deny the truth and continue to live in their own world regardless.

The number of comments beneath Chen Xiuqi’s newest post was increasing at a rate comparable to or even faster than what one would expect from a popular actor or singer. It was truly terrifying.

I am Mrs. Chen: Mr. Chen has fallen in love with another girl. What should I do? Sob sob...

Longing is Better Than Loving: I changed my username. Goodbye, Mr. Chen! I wish you and your girlfriend happiness! You have to be happy, okay~?

I Am Passionate: Although my heart is bleeding, I can tell that those three words, “my lovely girlfriend,” are filled with happiness. Su Yaya looks so beautiful and vibrant here too, just like a fairy descended from the heavens. I believe in love again.

There is a Southern Road: Me too! I just broke up with my boyfriend and felt terrible. I was so sad. I shouldn’t be happy to see this post but I felt a spark of hope instead. My ex-boyfriend didn’t want me but that just means he wasn’t the right person for me. I deserve so much better. Looking ahead, a better man is waiting for me in the future. Best wishes to you, Mr. Chen and Miss Su!

A Dreaming Butterfly: Didn’t you guys notice that Su Yaya is wearing workout clothes in these pictures? That looks like a regular room and these pictures were probably taken in the morning. Does this mean they’re living together?

A Small Boat: Ahhhh! She moved in?!

Bashful Words: Upstairs, are you dumb? Have you never been in love? Those two love each other so much, what’s wrong with them living together?

Is It Your Love: Right, right! Psh, it would be weird if they weren’t!

......

Hehehehe: You’re all saying that they’re in love but has Su Yaya responded? The post has been up for a while now!

Awaiting Breakup: Hmph! I say that couples who show public affection break up faster!

Love is Beautiful: Curse you, upstairs! Don’t get in our way!

Xxxxx: Haters can scram! Scram as far as you can!

......

Chen Xiuqi’s post was so popular that several big VIP marketing companies practically fought to see who could forward his post and give their blessings faster.

All of this caused the tags #ChenXiuqiConfession, #ChenXiuqiMyLovelyGirlfriend, and #ChenXiuqiAwaitingResponse to instantly occupy all three spots of the top three searches.

As the event continued to spread on the internet, countless netizens, fans, and even reporters bombarded the Chen Group with phone calls. The Chen Group’s official Weibo was also bursting with comments. It had never been livelier.

Assistant Chen, who had worked tirelessly the entire night before, had only slept for an hour before his phone began to go off.

It began with some acquaintances from the media industry asking if he knew any insider information about Chen Xiuqi’s public confession to Su Yaya.

At first, Assistant Chen was confused. He didn’t know anything! But after answering a few calls, he eventually realized what his boss had done.
