The big star has a prince syndrome

"Eat more. Would you like a bowl of rice? I'm worried you're not getting enough calories."

"No, who wants rice for midnight snack? It's too spicy... I forgot to tell the boss I wanted it mildly spicy. I can't eat this at all."

After eating for a while, Ye Yan realized that this was not the spicy level suitable for him. The aftereffect was too strong for him to bear. So he took off his gloves and picked up the bottle of yogurt that he disliked so much and started drinking it. He would get a sore throat if he ate spicy food. Xu Qingran knew this because it was clearly stated in the assistant's rules.

"What should I say to you? What's going on now? Do you want to start over?"

Xu Qingran looked at him with a helpless smile and asked, temporarily stopping the action of peeling shrimps and waiting for him to speak. Just when Ye Yan was feeling hot all over from the spiciness, a cold wind blew past them in time. Ye Yan immediately tilted her head back, closed her eyes and opened her mouth to exhale. Her eyes were half-covered by her messy bangs. This scene made her look like the enchanting and evil vampire in the comics, which stunned Xu Qingran.

"It's okay, just keep peeling. Boss, bring me a bowl of water."

“Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Xu Qingran understood what he meant. He wanted to rinse the crayfish with water, so he continued to peel it.

"But it won't taste good if it's boiled in water. Why don't you just order a new one?"

He wondered how a picky person like Ye Yan could accept food whose flavor had been washed away by water. This did not suit his personality. It was thorough but not completely thorough.

"I'm picky, but being picky doesn't mean I'm wasteful, okay? I ordered a double portion, so I'll only eat this much. You can eat the rest."

"So you ordered two servings and you only ate 0.1 of them?"

Ye Yan brought the shrimp meat that Xu Qingran had peeled in front of him and signaled him to take care of the remaining snails and lobsters. Xu Qingran was stunned. He looked at him picking up the shrimp meat with chopsticks and putting it into boiling water with a look of despair on his face. After all, he had already eaten dinner tonight.

Later, Xu Qingran was responsible for the finishing work alone and enjoyed a feast. Fortunately, he could eat spicy food, so it was not a difficult task for him. It was just that the weather was not good. When they just finished paying the bill, thunder was heard in the dark night sky, indicating that the summer rain was about to come.

"It's going to rain. It seems you have to take a taxi back." Xu Qingran said after looking at the sky. They had already left the late-night snack shop and walked to the side of the road. At this time, two young girls passing by seemed to notice them, and then their eyes fixed on Ye Yan, who only showed a pair of eyes.

"Are you Ye Yan?"

The girl asked excitedly, and Ye Yan immediately turned around and walked forward and denied: "I am not."

"He's not, I am." Xu Qingran said jokingly to the two girls, then followed Ye Yan's figure. He was also very handsome, and his smile was like the afterglow of the sunset and the stars in the night sky. It was hard for the opposite sex not to be moved. The girls were so excited that they covered their mouths and laughed secretly: "So handsome~"

Unfortunately, no matter how warm the smile was, it could not move the July sky. After another burst of thunder, the rain came in succession, soaking the 33-degree high temperature at two o'clock in the morning. The scorching air was finally punished, but Ye Yan did not like this sudden coolness, because before he got home, he was forced to take shelter from the rain with Xu Qingran at the bus stop.

"Boss, are you full? Don't let yourself get dizzy again."

Xu Qingran expressed doubts about his health. After all, he had only tasted the two large plates of crayfish and snails, and it could not be considered a meal. He admired this man more and more. He joked about his own body and had no sense of crisis at all. He suspected that his assistant was more worried about Ye Yan than Ye Yan himself.

"No, I don't have such a small appetite." Ye Yan answered truthfully. It was raining heavily, splashing water on the ground and onto his shoes. He stepped back in disgust. It wasn't that he was afraid of getting his shoes dirty, but he extremely hated wearing wet shoes and socks. The feeling of wet fabric against his skin made him irritable and uneasy.

"Boss, there's a convenience store over there. Please wait here for a moment while I go over and see if they have any umbrellas for sale."

Xu Qingran looked around and found his savior. Without waiting for Ye Yan's answer, he ran out in the heavy rain. Ye Yan looked at his figure running in the rain in surprise. In the blink of an eye, the person was getting farther and farther away from him.

"He's quite manly. The salary increase is worth it." Ye Yan muttered to himself. The temperature in the rain seemed to be getting colder. He unconsciously hugged his arms tightly and rubbed them back and forth.

When Xu Qingran ran to the door of the convenience store, his clothes were already soaked, and raindrops rolled down his hair. He wiped his face and pushed his wet hair to both sides. His clear jawline and high nose bridge suddenly became three-dimensional.

The clerk was a young girl. When she saw a handsome guy caught in the rain, she immediately walked up to him with a tissue and handed it to him enthusiastically: "Handsome guy, don't you have an umbrella?"

"Thank you. Do you have an umbrella for sale?" Xu Qingran asked while wiping his face with a tissue. He turned around to look at the bus stop not far away. Unfortunately, Ye Yan was standing in front of the platform, and he could not see anyone in that direction.

"Yes, I'll get it for you. Do you want a big one or a small one?"

The clerk asked carefully, and Xu Qingran hesitated. After thinking for a moment, she gave an answer:

"A big one."

He quickly returned to the platform holding a double umbrella. Ye Yan was stunned for two seconds when she saw his soaking wet upper body. After coming to her senses, she questioned his decision to buy only one umbrella: "Why did you only buy one? Wouldn't it be more convenient for each of us to hold one?"

"It rained suddenly today. The clerk said they were all sold out, and this is the only one left. Luckily, it's big enough to cover the two of us. Let's go, I'll take you home first."

He lied, but he did it without blushing or beating his heart, and there was no flaw in it. As for the reason for the lie, unfortunately he himself didn't know. Maybe it was because his family was poor, and buying two umbrellas at a time was too luxurious for him.

Ye Yan glanced at him without saying anything else. She put her hands in her pockets and walked under his umbrella. The two walked side by side.

It was still a bit crowded for two men over 1.8 meters tall to share a double umbrella, but it was better to have one than not. Ye Yan walked quickly. He didn't want to stay outdoors in extreme weather at all, unless he had to do so when filming.

“How did you get here? Didn’t you drive?”

"Boss, I'm a newly hired artist assistant. How can I afford a car? I came here on a shared bike."

Xu Qingran spoke the truth and did not feel embarrassed at all. After all, it was the middle of the night, and what other means of transportation was more convenient and faster than shared bicycles? If he had hesitated for a second longer when he went out, Ye Yan would have definitely fallen to the ground tonight.

The rain was still falling. They had already crossed a road and would be back to Ye Yan's place in ten minutes. The water on the road was very deep, which was not friendly to Ye Yan's personal preferences. He kept staring at the ground, fearing that he would step into a puddle and wet his trouser legs and the water would seep into his socks.

“Are you afraid of getting your shoes dirty?”

Xu Qingran saw how cautious he was. After all, she recognized the pair of shoes on his feet. They were a limited edition worth twelve thousand yuan, and were the dream shoes of many boys. It was normal to take good care of them. It was not pretentious at all.

"No, I'm just afraid of water seeping in. I don't like getting my feet wet in shoes. Please walk faster. I'm sleepy."

Ye Yan urged calmly. They were the only two people on the street. In the heavy rain at two o'clock in the morning, an umbrella passed by hurriedly like a cruise ship on the sea. Xu Qingran's hand holding the umbrella was steady and never wavered. This was the solid basic skills from his badminton major. His shoulders and pants were wet, but Ye Yan was not wet at all.

Xu Qingran accompanied Ye Yan to the elevator. Before Ye Yan entered, he couldn't help coughing twice, then said goodbye to him and prepared to go home.

"Ahem~ Boss, you go up by yourself. I'm going back first."

After hearing his words, Ye Yan pulled down his mask and turned around to look at Xu Qingran with his cold and charming eyes. His hair was still dripping with water. It was only then that Ye Yan noticed that his left shoulder was so wet. Thinking that he had just walked on his right side, Ye Yan seemed to understand why he was not wet at all.

Watching the raindrops dripping from his hair onto his cheek and then sliding down the corner of his jaw, Ye Yan suddenly raised his hand and stretched out his index finger, brushing it across Xu Qingran's jaw like a dragonfly skimming the water, and the drop of rain flew out along Ye Yan's fingertips.

Xu Qingran was stunned, and his heartbeat became irregular at this moment.

"Go upstairs and change into dry clothes. It will be dawn in two hours. Sleep at my house tonight." Ye Yan said lightly, then pressed the elevator button and walked in.

Maybe it was too cold. Xu Qingran's mouth twitched slightly. After hesitating for two seconds, he entered the elevator holding the wet umbrella.

After returning home, Ye Yan went to the cloakroom to find him a set of home clothes. When Xu Qingran came out, he had already taken off his soaked clothes. He only wore one piece of summer clothes. His upper body was exposed at a glance. The slender arms and eight-pack abs that he had trained from playing badminton for many years immediately caught Ye Yan's attention. She couldn't help but twitched her pupils and walked over to throw the clothes on him.

"You can use the bathroom outside. After washing up, just sleep on the sofa. I don't even make the beds in the guest rooms. Just throw your wet clothes in the washing machine yourself."

"I know, boss. You should go in and take a shower and get some sleep. If you catch a cold and can't work, Brother Zhuo will scold me to death."

Xu Qingran looked at him and reminded him with a smile, then went to the bathroom with his clothes. Ye Yan turned around and glanced at his back. He actually admired his broad shoulders and narrow waist figure.

"Her figure is much more mature than her face... I guess we need to add a rule to assistants' manuals: no untidy clothing in front of the boss."

Ye Yan muttered to herself, raised her eyebrows slightly, and turned back to the bedroom.
