Chapter 52: This minute is too long

Rong Yi was not sure if he had made a mistake.
Because after that short moment, Mo Yufei, standing on the stage and looking down at him, immediately showed a perfect smile.
Finally, Rong Yi recovered from his shock and left his seat to go to the stage in the envious eyes of all people. He was so nervous that he was about to walk with the same-side arms and legs. After he finally stepped on the stage, unsurprisingly, the host said the lines that he dreaded most.
“Wow, it’s rare. It’s a very handsome Alpha. Our Xiao Mo’s charm is boundless.”
Although Rong Yi didn’t like to be misunderstood, it was awkward to explain it forcibly in the current situation. After a short struggle, Rong Yi decided that it’d be better to let it go, and decided to acquiesce in it.
He was led all the way to the center of the stage and was given a microphone.
“Hello,” Mo Yufei said with a smile. “Would you like to introduce yourself first?”
“He-hello, everyone,” Rong Yi swallowed nervously. “My, my name is Rong Yi. I... I’m a big fan of Mo Yufei.”
As soon as he finished this sentence, he looked to the host, indicating that he had nothing more to say.
“Well, I’ll start timing now,” the host shook the timer in his hand. “You have a minute to convey your admiration to Xiao Mo, so hurry up. Start!”
Rong Yi turned to Mo Yufei, who was still all smiles at him, and felt his scalp was getting numb.
He didn’t prepare anything at all. Just as he was at a loss, the voice of the host came from his back.
“Five seconds have passed?”
Rong Yi was in a panic.
“Well, I, er, that...” He was so nervous that he was about to bite his tongue, and his mouth was full of words that he didn’t know how to say, “that is... Er...”
He was even more flustered by the laughter from the audience.
“Don’t be nervous,” Mo Yufei looked at him very seriously. “You’ve come all the way to my meeting. Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
In fact, there were. Rong Yi suddenly had a question in his mind.
Have you really been with Chen Keyao? If it’s true, then why did you break up?
But no matter how flustered he was, he knew these words could not be said on such an occasion. So in the end, he just tried his best to come up with some unimportant lines.
“I’m a big fan of you!”
Mo Yufei chuckled, “You said that just now.”
“... Keep on the good job! ”
“Well,” Mo Yufei smiled and nodded, “I will.”
“I... I will always support you.”
“Thank you.”
Well, there was no more words. Rong Yi turned to look at the host with a blushed face.
“That’s all?” The host also laughed, “there is still time, don’t waste it.”
This minute was too long!
Rong Yi held back for a long while: “... That’s it.”
What kind of fan benefit was this? It was all torture. He just wanted to hide in a corner and spend time fantasising about his God in a peaceful world. Why should he have been treated like this?
He thought that he could finally run back to his seat, but instead he heard the host continue to say, “OK, next you can ask Xiao Mo for your special fan benefit.”
“Eh?” Rong Yi was stunned.
There was a scream, full of envy and jealousy.
Seeing Rong Yi’s out-of-the-zone expression, the host continued to explain with a smile: “that is, you can tell Xiao Mo if there’s any wish you’d like him to fulfil for you. For example, give you a hug, or– ”
With the host’s suggestive words, there were an unanimous “no -” cry from under the stage.
Rong Yi felt that if he really put forward such a request, he would be chopped into mince at the moment he went back into the audience.
So, he carefully wiped his hands on the seam of his trousers: “then...”
He meant to say ‘let’s shake hands’.
But before he could finish, he saw Mo Yufei take a step in his direction. Then he raised his arms and said, “if you still can’t think of any wish, then let’s just have a hug?”
“Ah?” Rong Yi was stiff.
He was still stupefied when Mo Yufei held his shoulders in his arms.
Rong Yi panicked amid the wailing sound from under the stage and stayed absolutely still. Fortunately, the hug was very short. Mo Yufei gently patted his back twice and immediately released his arms. There was no contact between the two men below their shoulders in the whole process, and they stood half a meter away.
When he left the stage in a trance, the host told Rong Yi to remember to go to the staff to ask for his big gift bag.
.
Until the end of the activity, Rong Yi was a little unable to return to his senses.
To have such contact with Mo Yufei of course brought a burst of happiness, but at the same time, he felt a little embarrassed. He was expecting to meet Mo Yufei in the elevator or corridor again, but now he dare not think about it.
Even as a passer-by, Mo Yufei had remembered his face, so he must have recognized him just now. In such a way, he couldn’t help but feel that the gentle smile that Mo Yufei showed all the time had some teasing meaning in it.
After the event, Rong Yi hurriedly went to get the gift bag and wanted to leave quickly. Just as he arrived at the gate, he was caught by an acquaintance.
“My God!” Xiao Zhang tugged at his shoulder and shook hard. “How lucky you are! So lucky! ”
Compared with Rong Yi, her size was too small, so her movement couldn’t shake Rong Yi at all.
Rong Yi chuckled at her, “haha.”
“Let me have a hug!” Xiao Zhang jumped up. “I want to hug Momo indirectly!”
So just like Mo Yufei , Rong Yi also bent down and leaned over to hug her shoulders.
Xiao Zhang’s broken heart got some comfort, but she still could not help sighing as they walked out together. Rong Yi simply gave her the big gift bag he had received. After all, there would be no place to display them back home. He really doesn’t want Chen Keyao to see these things now.
“However, fortunately, it was you who went up there. Everyone thought you were an alpha, so the whole scene was still acceptable,” feeling quite touched, Xiao Zhang continued to say. “What kind of garbage activity was this? If the one who went up on the stage was someone who was obviously an omega and also was so intimate with Momo, everyone in the audience would have been furious. Who’d want to come thousands of miles to watch their husband and someone else... ”
In the middle of her monologue, Rong Yi’s phone suddenly rang.
It was a strange number. After a moment’s hesitation, he made a gesture to Xiao Zhang and pressed to answer.
“Hello?”
“Hi,” the voice on the other end of the phone, even after on-demand conversion, was still familiar to him, “guess who I am?”
Rong Yi was stunned. He had guessed who it might be, but he was not totally sure.
“Hello?” As he didn’t say anything, the other party asked in a drawling voice, “Can you hear me?”
“Yes,” Rong Yi hesitated, being cautious, and asked, “and you are?”
“You really can’t tell?” the other party said with a teasing laugh. “You just said that you are my loyal fan.”
It really was Mo Yufei.
Why does he have my phone number? Rong Yi stopped walking in an instant.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhang was very confused. He turned around and asked, “who is that?”
Rong Yi dare not tell her so he just waved his hand randomly.
“Why are you ignoring me? Don’t hang up, it’s really me, I’m not a fraud, “Mo Yufei said, but his tone was not anxious at all.” are you going back now? ”
“... Yes, I plan to go back. ” Rong Yi nodded his head subconsciously as he spoke.
“Back to the hotel?” Mo Yufei asked again.
“Yes, back to the hotel.” Rong Yi repeated his sentence mindlessly.
Another smiling voice came from the other end: “Aren’t we on the same way back then?”
“Eh?”
“You go to where I tell you now. When you arrive, someone will pick you up,” said Mo Yufei. “I’ll give you a lift.”
.
Rong Yi accompanied Xiao Zhang to the door, made up a random excuse to say goodbye to her, and then walked with an uneasy mind to a small door of the conference hall according to Mo Yufei’s instruction.
At the door stood two security guards and a woman with a staff badge.
Most of Mo Yufei’s fans know of this female beta who is about 30 years old with a cold-looking face but exquisite makeup. She was Mo Yufei’s assistant, with surname ‘Liu’. Because every time she was photographed with Mo Yufei, she looked indifferent and cold, she was nicknamed “the indifferent sister”.
“The indifference sister” was still very indifferent today. Seeing Rong Yi from afar, she nodded to him, and then motioned for him to follow her without any facial expression.
Rong Yi followed up to the backstage all the way, looking around uneasily. He couldn’t figure out what Mo Yufei sold was trying to do.
He just guessed why Mo Yufei had his phone number. After all, everyone had to register before entering the venue. As the protagonist of this activity, it was not difficult to find out.
But why would Mo Yufei need to do this? Wass it really just because he recognized me and thought it was just on his way? Isn’t it a little too intimate? I haven’t seen such a good-will gesture for any fans.
It was just disturbing. He was about to start some habitual imagination subconsciously again, but realised that it might be a bit too self indulging. If it wasn’t for his already taken heart, Rong Yi might have begun to imagine the ups and downs of a love affair with this big star already.
However, although full of doubts, he still went there obediently. Apart from being unable to refuse his idol, there was another reason. That question in his dream this morning, which was remembered on the stage just now but didn’t get asked, he still couldn’t let go.
When he was finally taken to the lounge, Rong Yi opened the door and found it empty.
“He still has an interview. You can wait here for a while. Don’t walk around. ” The indifferent sister said coldly and left.
Rong Yi was left alone, standing in the middle of the lounge in a daze, looking around, feeling at a loss.
Here we are. Might as well wait.
The sofa in the lounge was very posh and comfortable to sit on, which made people subconsciously want to relax and completely immerse with the soft cushions. However, Rong Yi was in a tense mood. No matter how comfortable the cushions were, they couldn’t relieve his nervousness at the moment.
Rong Yi had sat there in an upright position solemnly and anxiously for more than half an hour, when he began to doubt whether he had been completely forgotten. As he was just hesitating whether to call that number back, the door of the lounge was suddenly pushed open.
“Hi,” Mo Yufei said to him with a smile as soon as he came in. “I’m sorry, have you waited for a long time?”
Rong Yi jumped up from the sofa and stood straight: “it’s, OK.”
“Don’t you feel tired being so stiff all the time?” Mo Yufei said and went close to him. He reached out and touched his face, and then sat down in front of the makeup mirror on the side. “Just give me another minute. I’ll remove my makeup, and be ready in a minute.”
Rong Yi felt his face and nodded in a panic.
He watched Mo Yufei very casually pick up the banger on his forehead and pinned it on top of his head, then picked up the bottle on one side and began to work hard on his face. Rong Yi sighed in his heart: so that was not a natural, makeup-free face on the stage just now, but still, isn’t it a bit too carefree to remove his makeup right in front of the fans?
“Your name is Rong Yi, right?” Mo Yufei asked as he wiped his face. “I’m sorry that I checked your personal information. Do you mind? ”
Rong Yi quickly shook his head: “Not at all!”
“That’s good,” Mo Yufei smiled at him in the mirror. “Can you please tell me... Who gave you this ticket?”

On that note, does anyone remember that Mr. Rong had also secretly cremated Teacher Chen behind his back a long time ago.
