Chapter 80: Do You feel Your Fast Heartbeat Now? (1)
Ye Sui realized that Chen Shu also watched her shows; otherwise, how did he see those comments?
Furthermore, it was “Celebrity Challenge” now playing on TV.
Xiao Liu often helped Ye Sui to read the online reviews. When she saw Ye Sui without makeup and the words ‘my wife’ flooding the bullet screen, she had shown it to her specifically.
In order to support their idols, the fans would express their love in the bullet screen, which was the most normal thing.
But how would she explain this to Chen Shu?
Not knowing where the embarrassment of being caught in an adulterous act came from, Ye Sui cleared her throat and gently explained to Chen Shu, “Other female stars are also called by their fans like this.
“This is just a pet name. These fans may address me as ‘my wife’ today, but it might be changed to another person tomorrow.”t
Chen Shu frowned. “Then anyone can call you ‘my wife’, huh?”
Ye Sui saw his furrowed brows and shook her head subconsciously. She immediately denied and said, “No? But my husband is only you.”
Ye Sui didn’t know if Chen Shu liked her, but she couldn’t let such a small misunderstanding cause conflict between them.
“If you get into the entertainment business with that look, more people are guaranteed to follow you and call you ‘husband’.” With that handsome face, she firmly believed that Chen Shu would surely be more popular.
Chen Shu relentlessly blocked Ye Sui’s motive of trying to change the subject. “But I am not their husband.”
Since Ye Sui’s flattery wasn’t fruitful, she quickly grabbed the soda beside her and handed it to Chen Shu. “Drink, drink something sweet, and you won’t get angry.”
Chen Shu originally wanted to refuse, but Ye Sui had directly placed the soda to his mouth. He hesitated for a few seconds but took a sip in the end.
Chen Shu reluctantly swallowed a mouthful, which was too sweet for him.
Drinking the soda meant that the explanation had succeeded. Ye Sui directly took Chen Shu’s actions as his silent approval.
Chen Shu lowered the bottle in his hand and looked at the TV. “Let’s keep watching.”
Fearing that this variety show would remind Chen Shu of those comments, Ye Sui immediately changed the channel. “You have seen this program before. I’ll find you a new one.”
Chen Shu: “…”
*******
After eating, the couple opted to go to the supermarket to do some shopping and take a walk.
Ye Sui, wearing a mask, went out of the house with Chen Shu. As soon as they got in the car, before the car started, Ye Sui saw a black shadow coming straight into their window.
She was so scared that she almost lost her soul. What happened? The car hasn’t moved yet; why did it hit a person? She immediately asked Chen Shu, “Did you just see someone bumping into the car?”
Chen Shu shook his head.
Ye Sui got out of the car in a daze. She saw a black figure lying beside the car, but when the dim light fell, there was no shadow under its feet.
In that instant, Ye Sui knew that this was a ghost. She wanted to turn around and leave, but she heard a muffled voice. “Oh, my leg hurts so much. You should bear responsibility.”
Ye Sui suddenly realized something amiss. The car hadn’t left its position just now. It was the ghost that ran into her, so how was it her fault?
It seemed like this person wanted to exhort her!
Chen Shu walked over to Ye Sui. “What happened?”
Ye Sui pointed in the direction of con-ghost. “That con-ghost told me we hit him.”
Chen Shu lifted his feet, preparing to walk in the pointed direction. The swindler ghost had just wanted to exhort, but he didn’t expect to meet its nemesis instead.
He quickly backed away. “Forgive me, I don’t want anything.”
Ye Sui pulled Chen Shu and asked, “Why do you want to exhort us?”
“I don’t have any relatives or descendants, and no one has ever burned anything for me at any festival,” the con-ghost said in an aggrieved tone. “I was so hungry and famished. So I could only think of this way.”
He glanced at Chen Shu in horror. He did not expect that he would fail the first time he implemented his scheme.
Ye Sui noticed the ragged clothes of con-ghost. “Well, I’ll burn something for you. Don’t cheat again in the future.”
Astonished, the con-ghost bowed to Ye Sui. “Thank you, you are such a good person.”
Then he suddenly whistled. “Come out and thank the two benefactors!”
Chapter 80: Do You feel Your Fast Heartbeat Now? (2)
Then he suddenly whistled. “Come out and thank the two benefactors!”
Ye Sui was still wondering about the con-ghost’s action when a manhole cover not far away from her suddenly opened. A skinny hand lay on the ground.
Ye Sui’s heart trembled; who might this be?
A scrawny figure appeared from the inside. Instead of walking, it glanced into the hole and bent down to reach in.
Exerting whatever strength it had, it pulled out a second child from the hole, who then turned around and pulled up another child.
In this way, the previous one pulled the next one, and eight children came out one after another, standing next to the con-ghost in a line. Their clothes were also worn-out like the swindler.
Ye Sui asked, “They are all your…”
The con-ghost looked at the ghost children. “These are all dead children. They also have no family. After departing from the living world, they just float around and don’t know where to go.”
“When I meet such poor children, I give them some food.”
Ye Sui instantly understood why the con-ghost always don’t have enough to eat. It turned out that he wanted to raise these ghost children.
When the con-ghost waved his hand, the ghost children shouted in unison with tacit understanding, their voice resounding through the sky. “Thank you, big sister, thank you, big brother! I wish you a hundred years of good marriage and early birth of your son!”
When Ye Sui heard the last part, she almost staggered a few steps. Her face suddenly turned red like a ripe peach. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Ye Sui promised the con-ghost that she would burn things for them immediately. Afterward, the con-ghost led the ghost children away.
Chen Shu, who had not spoken for a long time, noticed Ye Sui’s strange behavior and asked, “What did they just tell you?”
Hearing this, Ye Sui trembled, thinking that she couldn’t say that those people wished them both an early baby.
Ye Sui’s ears blushed again. She didn’t look at Chen Shu, moving her head away guiltily. “Nothing.”
Chen Shu stared at Ye Sui’s red ears for a few seconds. Puzzled, he asked, “Why are your ears so red?”
Ye Sui groaned, raised her hand in disguise, fanned her flushed cheeks, and casually said, “Is it? It’s hot.”
As soon as the voice fell, a gust of wind blew—cold and bleak—and rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground. They landed on Ye Sui’s feet.
As if saying, ‘Look, you are lying.’
Ye Sui did not dare to look at Chen Shu and hurried forward. However, she suddenly realized that she was pulled away by force. Chen Shu had stretched out his hand and grabbed her.
Ye Sui turned and met Chen Shu’s eyes. He stood before her, looking at her earnestly.
He didn’t notice that Ye Sui was lying. Realizing that the temperature of his hand was cold, he thought about it and found a way.
Chen Shu was tall. As he stood in front of her, he seemed to cast a heavy shadow. At this moment, Ye Sui felt like she was beset by his scrutinizing gaze.
The dark night pronounced the outline of Chen Shu’s eyes, his deep gaze focused at her.
Chen Shu suddenly raised his hand, his slender fingers went around Ye Sui’s ear, then he hooked the edge of the mask, and gently removed it. When the mask slipped, Ye Sui’s face was exposed.
“Is something wrong?” Ye Sui simply asked.
Chen Shu lowered his eyes, and he suddenly put his hand on Ye Sui’s ear, completely covering it. His cold breath enveloped her in its embrace.
Chen Shu’s voice slowly cleared. “Isn’t it hot? I’ll help you cool down.”
Ye Sui could see that Chen Shu’s actions were natural, and he was simply helping her.
Ye Sui’s head suddenly went blank, but her heart beat violently. Overwhelmed, she spoke incoherently, “I, I… now I feel cold again; let’s go home.”

Overwhelmed, she spoke incoherently, “I, I… now I feel cold again; let’s go home.”
Ye Sui lowered her head and walked forward quickly, trying to ignore her violent heartbeat. Chen Shu looked at her back, smiled softly, and paced ahead.
**********
At the end of the weekend, Ye Sui was called to the company by Renjie to arrange her next trip.
After Ye Sui signed the contract with Huarui, Renjie followed Dai Zhi. Knowing that he was one of the best agents in entertainment, she had learned a lot.
Ye Sui had finished filming “Moon Rescue”. The next movie on her agenda was Ning Ling’s biography.
During this period, Dai Zhi would give Ye Sui a few commercials and variety shows to maintain exposure. In the remaining time, Ye Sui would quietly work on the film.
Seeing Xiao Liu’s red face, Ye Sui couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong with you? Did something good happen?”
Xiao Liu was smiling happily while holding the phone. When she heard Ye Sui, she said sweetly, “I recently met my college classmate, and we had a good chat. ”
Ye Sui immediately recognized Xiao Liu’s sugar-coated tone. Even Xiao Liu, who was single all year round, would be removed from the list.
At that moment, she couldn’t help thinking of her and Chen Shu. How should she make Chen Shu feel the same way as her? When facing him, her heart would beat faster.
Suddenly, Ye Sui had an idea. She thought of the cake she had eaten in the cafe last time. Sweet food would secrete dopamine, which would make people feel in love.
If Chen Shu ate the cake, the sweet taste would make him have the urge to fall in love with her. One piece of cake won’t do, so she’ll buy two.
Ye Sui was embarrassed to say this to Xiao Liu, and she didn’t want to be exposed either. After all, it was embarrassing to tell others that she and Chen Shu hadn’t even talked about their love affair.
As soon as she left the company, Ye Sui headed straight to the cafe. She went to the front desk and said, “Give me a piece of each cake here.”
The attendant was stunned. Because of Ye Sui’s sharp voice, she looked at her several times. She thought it sounded familiar, but she couldn’t place her finger on it.
When Ye Sui left the cafe with large bags in her hands, the attendant slapped her head and suddenly realized. “That was Ye Sui!”
“Ye Sui, a female celebrity, what do you eat so much cake for?”
Ye Sui didn’t waste her time and immediately returned home. When Chen Shu came back from the company, he saw a whole row of cakes on the dining table.
Chen Shu was startled. “Are you going to eat everything?” When did she have such a big appetite?
Ye Sui smiled and waved at Chen Shu. “Not me; I bought it for you.”
Chen Shu looked at the cake full of tables. “…”
Seeing that Chen Shu was unresponsive, Ye Sui pulled him to the table and sat him down, eagerly pushing the fork into Chen Shu’s hand.
Chen Shu was not so interested in sweets, but in the face of Ye Sui’s eyes, he couldn’t say no. Helpless, he had to eat them one spoonful at a time soullessly.
“Good taste.”
After Chen Shu painstakingly tasted each piece of cake, Ye Sui suddenly called his name, “Chen Shu, look into my eyes.”
When Chen Shu really faced Ye Sui’s eyes, Ye Sui felt a little nervous inexplicably, and her heart began to jump.
“Do you feel your heart racing right now?”
