Chapter 71: Second Brother Returns
Feeling the gaze on him, Rong Xingyu smiled faintly at Rong Zhihao.
But before he could say anything, he suddenly noticed Rong Zishan on the other side with his fingers coated in cream lunging toward him.
Using his height and long arms to his advantage, Rong Zishan managed to smear the cream perfectly on Rong Xingyu’s nose before he could dodge.
Rong Xingyu: "..."
He felt the sweet scent of the cream hitting his nose and the soft unique texture on the tip of his nose.
For a moment, he almost wanted to stick out his tongue to see if he could lick the small dollop off.
But he held back, he looking at Rong Zishan’s triumphant cheeky grin.
Rong Xingyu couldn’t help but call out to his fourth brother.
Rong Zishan made a silly face at him. Rong Xingyu looked over at Rong Zhenqiao who was smiling approvingly.
With his older brother’s silent consent, Rong Xingyu’s courage instantly grew.
He thought for a moment and picked up a disposable plate nearby that still had some cream on it.
Rong Zishan let out a surprised "Whoa!" and immediately ran away.
"Rong Xingyu, that’s too much! Yiu are so cruel!"
Rong Xingyu chased after him, trying to slam the plate of cake onto Rong Zishan’s face.
The plan sounded perfect in theory, but because of their height difference, it was harder to pull off in practice.
During their playful fight, Rong Xingyu ended up getting even more cream smeared on his own face by Rong Zishan.
Now, with his speckled, messy look, he resembled a little calico cat.
Rong Zishan laughed loudly as he ran forward and Rong Xingyu doggedly chased after him.
Just as he was about to catch up near the door, unexpectedly, the front door suddenly opened from the outside.
A man with extraordinary appearance stood there while dragging a suitcase.
Rong Xingyu froze in his tracks.
But perhaps fate decided his birthday wasn’t thrilling enough yet, because his feet suddenly slipped.
His eyes went wide and he thought, Oh no!
As his body lost balance from the sudden stop, he pitched forward.
Luckily, the man in front of him reacted quickly and catching him before he could crash to the floor.
Otherwise, Rong Xingyu might have ended up making a memorable and painful birthday memory.
"Be careful."
The man frowned slightly.
His voice, like his face, was captivating.
"Th-thank..." Rong Xingyu began, but suddenly realized something was missing from his hands.
The cake plate!
Looking down, he noticed a suspicious white smear on the black, obviously expensive trench coat the man was wearing.
Rong Xingyu: "..."
The man: "..."
The man’s mouth twitched slightly at the corner.
"I-I’m sorry!!!!"
Rong Xingyu almost bent over to apologize properly, but just then Rong Zishan walked over. Seeing the man, he was surprised. "Second Brother?"
"Huh?" Rong Xingyu watched as the man nodded slightly and handed his suitcase to a nearby servant.
After removing his coat, he wore a black turtleneck sweater underneath, perfectly showing off his model like physique.
The original story flashed through Rong Xingyu’s mind.
This man was the top star in the entertainment industry right now, he’s a wildly popular actor Rong Zhenghao?
No wonder he seemed familiar just now.
He had even searched for his second brother’s photos and videos online before!
Looking at his appearance and aura, Rong Xingyu could finally understand why his second brother was so famous in the entertainment world.
The real person was countless times more handsome than in photos.
"What are you daydreaming about? Come on, let’s go." Rong Zishan patted Rong Xingyu on the shoulder and guided him inside.
Once inside, they saw Rong Zhenghao already sitting on the sofa and chatting with Rong Zhenqiao.
"How long are you planning to stay this time?" Rong Zhenqiao asked while sipping his tea.
Rong Zhenghao shrugged his shoulder. "Not long. I came back after asking for leave from the crew. I didn’t expect the flight to be delayed by the storm. Looks like I missed both cakes."
Maybe because he had been under the spotlight for so long, every expression and movement Rong Zhenghao made was captivating. Even the slightest gesture radiated charm.
Seeing Rong Xingyu and the others approach, Rong Zhenghao smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, happy birthday."
"Thank you, Second Brother." Rong Xingyu pressed his lips together and returned a polite and obedient smile.
Rong Zhenghao took out the two gifts he had prepared and teased, "I almost didn’t recognize you just now. How come, taking advantage of Second Brother not being home, you suddenly turned over a new leaf?"
Rong Xingyu didn’t know how to respond, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Remembering that Rong Zhenghao had said he missed the cake because of the flight delay, Rong Xingyu got up and cut a piece of cake, he then placing it in front of him.
Rong Zhenghao glanced at the cake, then looked at Rong Xingyu and politely refused with a smile, "Thanks, but I need to keep my figure for filming, so no sweets for me."
Rong Xingyu froze for a moment, then lowered his head and softly said "Oh."
After chatting a little more with Rong Zhenqiao, Rong Zhenghao went upstairs to rest, never touching the cake.
Rong Xingyu bit his lip. It didn’t feel like his imagination.
Although Second Brother seemed friendly toward him and Rong Zhihao, Rong Xingyu couldn’t shake the feeling that his smiles were staged for the cameras and that he deliberately kept a distance from them in real life.
Second Brother didn’t actually like him, Rong Xingyu thought gloomily.
He knew it must have been because of the original Rong Xingyu’s actions, but what exactly had the original done to make his second brother dislike him so much?
Rong Xingyu tried to recall, but his mind felt completely blank.
The memories he had inherited from the original seemed to be fading.
Just now, he hadn’t even recognized Rong Zhenghao at first, he only felt that he looked vaguely familiar.
