After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life

Chapter 981 - 968: No Longer Able to Be an Ordinary Person

After sending off Hao Xisheng, Bi Xia didn’t leave Meng Chi’s room. Instead, he stood by Meng Chi’s bed, quietly watching the still-unconscious Meng Chi. After a while, Bi Xia said casually, "It’s fine to pretend in front of Hao Xisheng, but what are you pretending for in front of me?"As his words fell, seeing no response from Meng Chi, Bi Xia rolled his eyes. "If you don’t get up, I’ll drink all the yogurt in your fridge!"

A figure instantly sprang up from the bed and rushed to the mini-fridge at light speed, counting the yogurt repeatedly, then looked at Bi Xia with a pout and grievance, "Boss, three bottles of my yogurt are missing!"

"Oh," Bi Xia nodded lightly, "I took two bottles earlier, drank one myself, and gave one to Hao Xisheng."

"What about the other bottle?"

Bi Xia blinked and smiled, "I drank that too, is that not allowed?"

Meng Chi suddenly remembered his previous act of pretending to be unconscious: ...

Clearing his throat, Meng Chi obediently returned to bed, lifted the quilt, got in, and under Bi Xia’s gaze clutched his head with a pained expression, rolling around in the sheets, "Oh my, my head hurts. I must have gotten up too quickly without resting properly, and now the aftereffects are hitting me!"

Bi Xia: ...

Coldly watching Meng Chi’s performance, Bi Xia’s mouth twitched, wondering how everyone around him turned out to be such drama queens. Clearly, he didn’t notice Chi had this skill before...

Stealing glances at Bi Xia’s expressionless face, Meng Chi couldn’t quite decide if Bi Xia was genuinely angry or not. "That’s odd, my godmother clearly said that if you annoy the boss, just feign illness..."

Bi Xia: ...

Haha, turns out they were all infected by his drama queen mom!

"Stop pretending, get up."

Listening to Bi Xia’s words, Meng Chi obediently got up, lowered his head, and looked at his hands, waiting for Bi Xia’s reprimand.

Bi Xia looked at Meng Chi somewhat helplessly and couldn’t help venting to 007, ’Am I usually very fierce to them? They look so afraid of me.’

calmly playing Pokémon on the screen,[Perhaps you need a mirror right now.]

Bi Xia: ... Does this mean his facial expression looks terrifying? Even though he’s expressionless, right?

007: ... It’s precisely the lack of expression that’s scary, bro!

"Boss, I will pretend not to have seen today’s events. Rest assured, you don’t need a special reminder. No matter what the boss becomes, you’ll always be my boss!" Meng Chi suddenly spoke up on his own, seriously looking at Bi Xia.

Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "Don’t you find it profoundly unbelievable?"

"It is indeed unbelievable. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it only existed in the world of novels," Meng Chi chuckled, "But I witnessed it personally, and it happened to the boss, so no matter how unbelievable it is, I will accept it..." then, do my utmost to keep your secret and... stand beside you...

Listening to Meng Chi’s words, for a moment, Bi Xia didn’t know what to say. He deeply looked at Meng Chi, recalling how Meng Chi shielded him, always standing by his side no matter what, even blocking him during that fierce explosion...

To be honest, Bi Xia didn’t even know if he could do all this for them...

Meng Chi shrugged, feigning lightness, "But to tell the truth, I’m still quite... unhappy. Initially, I thought I could stand by your side, but now I find, despite calling myself your brother, there seems to be a gap..."

"But it’s okay!" Meng Chi smiled brightly, "I’ll work hard, using the identity of an ordinary person, to be the brother who can share everything with you!"

Looking at Meng Chi, Bi Xia slightly lowered his gaze, after a while, faintly curled his lips, leaning against the wall, lightly said, "If your wish is to stand beside me as an ordinary person, I’m afraid it can’t be realized. After all, I might need someone like me even more in the future."

The eyes that were once shining gradually dimmed, Meng Chi lowered his head in silence, repeating Bi Xia’s words in his mind over and over again, feeling both dissatisfaction with his lack of progress and jealousy towards whoever might replace him beside Bi Xia in the future...

Suddenly, low laughter slowly rang out, Meng Chi looked towards Bi Xia in confusion, only to see the boy’s exquisite face carrying a calm smile, those star-like eyes slightly upturned, with a touch of mischief, he heard the boy say, "It’s a pity for you, starting today, you can no longer be an ordinary person."

Meng Chi: Huh?

Eyes widened suddenly, huh!
