Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself-Chapter 234: That’s the Kind You Should Date

Chapter 234: Chapter 234: That’s the Kind You Should Date

After watching Yu Heng leave, Yu Xia excitedly circled the little cow electric scooter twice, feeling an overwhelming pride as if she owned a Lamborghini. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

She mounted the little scooter, placed some items in the front basket, and then patted the back seat for Xie Qingci:

"Hop on, little brother, I’ll give you a ride!"

Xie Qingci was reluctant to get on and even tried to take her place.

"Let me give you a ride instead."

This little cow was too low; he had to curl up even when sitting in the back, with no way to stretch his legs.

Moreover, how could he let a girl give him a ride? Was he supposed to hold her waist the entire time?

But Yu Xia rejected his offer: "No, I’ll give you a ride. Trust my skills; you won’t fall on this smooth road."

She was very insistent, occupying the driver’s seat and refusing to budge. After a brief standoff, Xie Qingci could only admit defeat, begrudgingly curling his legs onto the back seat.

His legs were planted firmly on the ground, dragging along as they went.

Yu Xia felt that this way, he was compromising her riding safety and insisted that he lift his feet, hugging his knees, just like a crab tied with five flowers.

The backpack was placed in the front to balance the weight, as the scooter wobbled out a few meters. Xie Qingci secretly helped balance it with his feet, which Yu Xia didn’t notice as she whistled excitedly into the wind.

"We have a ride now! We have a ride! Champion team! Let’s go, hahaha!"

Xie Qingci laughed helplessly from the back.

Leaving the factory area, it was indeed fields, along with a strawberry base with greenhouses.

The countryside path was well-paved, with no tall trees by the roadside, only short greenery that, once grown to a certain height, would be uprooted to decorate office spaces as money trees and the like.

Yu Xia sped down the road, a stark contrast to her previously lethargic, sleepy demeanor.

"The air here is pretty good! Once we check out the task, by six, we’ll have dinner and then might as well take a stroll!"

After all, at six, a truce was called, meaning no worries about being caught by pursuers.

Xie Qingci replied from the back, "Okay. What’s for dinner?"

"Let’s have wontons. After we come back from Qingbo Park, we’ll sneak off for a picnic on the field’s edge!"

Xie Qingci tugged on her clothes, "Okay, whatever you say! Go slower!"

The little scooter entered the quaint path outside Qingbo Park, lined with fruit trees on the grassy verge.

It was already mid-March, with the peach and pear blossoms nearing the end of their blooming, leaving only a few specks of pink and white on the trees.

As springlight faded and sunlight gradually descended through the branches, the last rays fell on the relaxed pedestrians.

Xie Qingci squinted slightly as the sunlight made its way in; his gaze fell on the person ahead, whose ears appeared almost transparent in the light, mouth curving slightly.

He took off his helmet, tucked it under his arm, and ran his hand through his wind-mussed short hair. The neckline of his pullover slid to the side, revealing a stretch of smooth collarbone.

His slightly narrowed eyes and leisurely smile seemed blessed by the light, exuding extra allure with a seven-tenths nonchalant aura.

The comments section erupted with virtual screams.

[Damn, what else could this be if not seduction?! Smashing a 300-year-old rosewood armchair in excitement.jpg]

[He’s smiling at me! He’s totally smiling at me!]

[Forever admiring that youthful vibe! No wonder he’s the people’s little brother!]

[We’ve got a novel’s male lead! Bro, join a teen drama!]

[So handsome my tears ran for 300 meters, with a water bill of 270.]

Yu Xia also noticed how captivating Xie Qingci looked.

But it was only via the side mirrors that she saw half of his face. For safety, she could only glance for two seconds before swiftly looking back at the road.

So she could only fantasize about what he might be doing.

Perhaps internally exclaiming, "Riding in the backseat of my girlfriend’s scooter is the happiest thing in the world"?

"Sis, is that the entrance to Qingbo Park up ahead? Let’s stop here."

"Huh? Oh, oh, oh."

Yu Xia distractedly squeezed the brakes, just then looking up at Qingbo Park’s entrance.

Normally, a park doesn’t necessarily need a big entrance since it doesn’t charge an entry fee.

But Qingbo Park was different; it’s a suburban development attraction. Occasionally, it even draws tourists from outside the province, so the place gets a bit of attention, warranting both front and back gates.

They stopped a hundred meters from the front gate, not rushing ahead, observing carefully first.

"Is that the show’s vehicle?" she asked, pointing to a black car parked by the road at the park’s entrance.

Xie Qingci, with his keen eyesight, saw the logo on the car, confirming in a low voice.

"Looks like the pursuers know our task site."

Plus, they had a dedicated vehicle, chasing along, unlike them, who had to navigate by foot and hide at every turn.

Yu Xia clicked her tongue: "I thought they had outdated info; turns out they’ve been waiting here for ages."

Luckily, after darting out of the subway, they took wrong turns and wandered around in the marketplace long enough. Otherwise, they’d have a high chance of running into the pursuers.

"What now? We still have to go in and finish the task."

Xie Qingci got up from the back seat, stretching his almost stiff legs, and said:

"Apart from us, other teams might already be here. The car seems empty, quite possibly catching another team inside. Let’s pretend and go see."

"How do we pretend?"

His gaze shifted to her sports jacket.

Two minutes later, Yu Xia sat at the stone table in the park where old men played chess, chatting with a group of aunts who were blowing into various instruments.

She let her hair down, discarding the hat, wore her jacket inside out, showing only the black exterior, blending in with the crowd.

Meanwhile, Xie Qingci walked ahead alone, carrying a backpack. His tall and upright silhouette caught everyone’s attention.

The trendy-haired aunts followed him with their eyes for a while, then turned back to their friends, saying, "That young man is quite spirited."

Yu Xia, having just begun chatting about harmonica playing, was now forcibly dragged into another topic that interested them more.

"When you young people seek a partner, you should find someone like him. Just look at how neat, respectful, and competent he seems."

"..." You could see so much inner beauty just from his back view?

Yu Xia responded perfunctorily, inquiring where the pull-up bars in the park were, then added, "I saw someone running around earlier chasing someone. Aunts, did you see it?"

The aunts indeed noticed.

"Yes, two people in suits and ties chased after someone. We thought it was a robbery and almost called the police."

"And then?" she feigned curiosity over such bizarre gossip.

"Then security came and questioned them. Found out it was for a show, so they left it be. Sweetie, let me tell you, from our experience, we wouldn’t lie to you. When choosing a partner, aim for one like that just now..."

Yu Xia: Thanks, but he’s already my partner.
