One Useless Rebirth - Chap 67

Chap 67
: Xiao Bai (3)

He Bai looked at him and recalled the “apologize by drinking three shots” video. His mild heart was softened. After a few-second silence, he said, “I accept your apology. As for Qiuhe…I will talk with him later.” After these days, he had basically cooled down. Besides, blocking and farewell were just tricks to frighten him so that he could remember this lesson and never did it again. ‘Now Jiang Xiuwen came to apologize for his friend in person while Di Qiuhe had also learnt from it, so, it’s time to move on.’

“Thank you for your forgiveness.” Hearing that, Jiang Xiuwen finally breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn’t expected that things could go on so smoothly. Gazing at He Bai’s gradually mature face and recalled Di Qiuhe’s determined, “he-is-the-one” face, he couldn’t help saying something nice to talk his friend up, “Mr. He, Qiuhe is a little bit childish. Sometimes he might go too far, but he bears no ill will. He had intended to use the joke to get closer to you. He is kind of dumb and adopted the inappropriate method, and his complicated family background has also made him…Anyway, if he does anything stupid in the future, don’t hesitate beating and scolding him. He won’t resist, just hope you do not ignore him again. He doesn’t have many friends and susceptible to friends’ emotions, so even if he is sad, he will not show it.”

He Bai was baffled by his last words. He remembered that Di Qiuhe was clearly happy at his birthday night, but he just restrained his happiness and did not know how to express it, making him even less talkative than usual. He had great sympathy for Di Qiuhe, sighing unconsciously. Then he smiled to Jiang Xiuwen and said, “I see, thanks for your reminding.”

“Not at all”, Jiang Xiuwen said hurriedly, full of gratification and anxiety.

His friend had an infallible eye for He Bai, who was really good. But as considerate as He Ba, who was also blessed with such good temperament, such strong ability, and such a handsome face…Anyway, he worried about whether Di Qiuhe could capture the heart of such an excellent boy. It would be slightly easier if He Bai was gay, but what if he was completely straight…Then that would be tragic and miserable. Back to the dorm, He Bai recalled all the things happened in these days and sighed again. He took out the box he received today from his bag.

He Bai felt speechless but also thought Di Qiuhe was funny.

Di Qiuhe…was so childish that he could only use such childish way to apologize. What a blockhead.

While roommates were out, he inserted the card into computer and played the video.

“Xiao Bai.” Di Qiuhe was in a more plainly furnished room. He sat on the bed with boxer shorts and night trousers, as well as a serious face.

His skin was even more tanned in just a few days. And an injury lay on his arm, a scar on his forehead. Yet his eyes became more powerful, but now they were mixed with unease and ingratiation. This kind of contradiction made him lovelier. “I was on the set when you called me yesterday, so I missed it, sorry.” He stood upright as he was saying, “Jiang Xiuwen told me that apology must be full of sincerity. I am afraid that you will miss the messages that I have sent you on Weibo and campus network, so I recorded this video. I have to continue my filming tonight, so, I cannot drink. I will compensate you these three shots next time, sorry.”

He Bai looked at Di Qiuhe’s tired, bleary red eyes and then turned to his dark circles. Finally, there went his last anger.

“And…” Di Qiuhe sat in a more overcautious manner and said with a stiff face, “To not make it worse, I decide to confess one more thing.”

He Bai was shocked and then frowned. ‘Did he cheat me for something else?’

“After pissing you off, I secretly contacted Niu Junjie and asked for the ways to obtain your forgiveness. It’s not spying on you or inquiring about your privacy. If you feel offended, I will stop, sorry.”

With complex expressions, He Bai gazed at this guy who was apologizing seriously. Finally, he shook his head and took out his phone, removing Di Qiuhe from the blacklist.

“I will never miss your call again.” Di Qiuhe promised at the end of the video, and smiled at the camera. He looked dumb, but mild, “Xiao Bai, look forward to our next meeting.”

As the video was over, He Bai had already worn a smile. After a thought, he took out the recorder.

There was only one recording in it. He found it and played out.

“Xiao Bai, I’ sorry.”

Familiar opening remarks with apology.

“It is my fault to cheat you into sending me voice. Please accept my apology.”

He Bai’s smile was frozen and he felt an uneasy sense of foreboding.

“Xiao Bai, good morning, mua~”

“Xiao Bai, good evening, mua~”

He Bai buried his face in his hands.

“Another compensating recording.” The mild deep and mellow voice paused, and then tinted with shyness. He said slowly, “Xiao Bai, Let me scoop you up and cuddle you with a warm kiss!”

Bang!

He Bai turned off the recorder indifferently and took a deep breath. He took the phone and blocked Di Qiuhe again. But he recalled the words of Jiang Xiuwen and cancelled the block, turning off his phone.

He shouldn’t believe that Di Qiuhe could become normal. What? Is him a girl? ‘Cuddle and kiss? We are two men.’

Another night shooting was over. Di Qiuhe took his private phone from Wang Boyi, still no He Bai’s call. He lowered his eyes disappointedly.

“Master Di.” Wang Boyi said with hesitation, having noticed the conflict between his boss and He Bai. He handed Di Qiuhe his own phone, “I browsed news about Huang du today and found this accidentally…Although this picture doesn’t show his whole face, but I think he is your junior schoolmate at Q University…”

Di Qiuhe, who had leaned against the chair casually, suddenly sat upright, and grabbed his phone. Wang Boyi: “…” Such a bandit action. And the gifts his boss mailed to Q University…People who didn’t know the fact must have thought that he was coursing a girl.

There was a pink Weibo homepage on his phone. Telling from the profile photo, the blogger was most likely to be a beautiful girl. The verified information showed that she was a GuFeng music (some kind of newage folk that contained the elements of both Chinese modern and ancient songs) singer with a lot of works and hundreds of thousand fans. The top blog was a publicity, and the second one was a newly released travelling blog, which contained nine photos. The first seven were landscape photos, the eighth one was a couple photo and the last one, was obviously a candid photo.

Di Qiuhe recognized immediately that the person standing sideways on the camera was his little puppy. Then he clicked the picture with a speed seemingly quicker than his brain responses. He gazed at this person in the picture and touched him at his dimple.

Wang Boyi pretended not seeing his action and said, “This blogger said she and her boyfriend met this student who took free photos for visitors when they dated in the fairyland. She said the student was kind and had wonderful skills. They also got free lollipops after that. When she posted this photo, many recognized that this student was Mr. He and attracted a lot of fans, who made it a hot issue on Weibo.”

“Xiao Bai is amazing, so wherever he goes, he can be the focus of others.” Di Qiuhe couldn’t help smiling and said with a proud tone. He was about to save the picture when he realized that this was Wang Yibo’s phone. He cancelled the saving and returned the phone, then he took out his own.

Wang Yibo accepted phone and was a little bit surprised. Master Di felt better now? But why?

Ding Dong. Just as he took out his phone, a message came. Di Qiuhe frowned and hesitated on whether he should open Weibo or check the message, then he chose to check the message reluctantly.

Jiang Xiuwen: I have talked with He Bai. He has accepted my apology and said that he would contact you later. Seize the chance.

Di Qiuhe was shocked. He immediately found He Bai’s phone number and called him without any thoughts.

“Sorry, the number you dialed has been switched off.”

It was “switched off”, not “does not exist”!

He recalled that in the picture, little puppy’s profile was so beautiful, and he subconsciously curled up his lips when he was adjusting his camera. Di Qiuhe wanted to see him right now. He turned to Wang Boyi and pressed his shoulder, saying seriously, “I am going back to city B!”

Wang Boyi withstood his hand and pain, his body turning stiff, saying, “But your filming…”

“After night shooting, I got a one-day break. Book the plane ticket for me, I’ll make it!” Di Qiuhe cannot restrain his desire anymore and his eyes even began to shine. He said hurriedly, “I go back to pack up and prepare gifts now. Just book the ticket as quickly as possible. There is only one night shooting to go, hurry up!” Then he strode back to his room.

Wang Boyi: “…” Master Di was somewhat wired…
