Chapter 77: Fifty-first Day of Dating. And Kwon Ji-yong...

Kwon Ji-yong arrived at the company early, and even when he returned that evening, Wu Yunxi had already been home for hours. Despite returning late, Wu Yunxi had prepared a small cake for Kwon Ji-yong to celebrate the sales of his new album.

The cake wasn't very big, mainly because it was already late, and Kwon Ji-yong was already in his comeback phase, so he looked a bit heavier on camera. Kwon Ji-yong had already been managing his weight before this, and Wu Yunxi had been keeping an eye on him.

Although the cake was small, Kwon Ji-yong and Wu Yunxi shared it.

Actually, Wu Yunxi had made the cake, but since she rarely makes things like this, she spent a lot of time on the topping and thinking up the right pattern. However, her skills were limited, so the pattern wasn't anything particularly novel. She just used less sugar than usual for the flavor. Since it was a spur-of-the-moment idea, Wu Yunxi didn't specifically

mention it to Kwon Ji-yong.

Thinking that Gon Ji-yong hadn't returned for dinner, and that he'd been planning a dinner with the staff, Wu Yunxi had been thinking about giving him a simple celebration alone.

After finishing the cake, Gon Ji-yong and Wu Yunxi discussed their day at the company. He was rambling on and on, having been sent back home by his assistant after drinking. While not drunk, he was a bit tipsy from the wine. He held Wu Yunxi's hand and gushed about his happiness.

In front of the staff, Gon Ji-yong couldn't fully express his feelings. Even though many of them had worked together for years, he still had a bit of an idol image in front of them. But with Wu Yunxi, he was always able to express his feelings easily.

"BABE, you have no idea how happy I'll be when I see the sales statistics tonight,"

Gon Ji-yong repeated, tears welling in his eyes.

He wasn't actually drunk. He had work the next morning, and being drunk would affect his performance the next day. So, while Quan Zhiyong hadn't drunk much today, he was so happy that when he saw Wu Yunxi back home, he looked completely drunk.

"Yes, I know, Oppa, I know you're happy,"

Wu Yunxi patted Quan Zhiyong's shoulder, expressing her understanding and wanting to give him more energy.

They talked for a long time, even before going to bed, Quan Zhiyong continued discussing these things, slowly falling asleep under Wu Yunxi's comfort.

Watching Quan Zhiyong sleep, Wu Yunxi sighed softly. Even if she hadn't experienced what Quan Zhiyong had gone through, even from the fragments she'd seen on the news, she could imagine what he must have felt.

She was happy, too. After gently touching Quan Zhiyong's forehead, Wu Yunxi closed her eyes again. She drifted off to sleep, and when she woke up in the morning, Quan Zhiyong's face was indeed swollen like a cute little pig.

When Wu Yunxi woke up and saw Quan Zhilong holding an ice spoon to his face, she realized that Quan Zhilong was truly a celebrity, with his endless methods for reducing swelling.

Wu Yunxi didn't comment, but after watching Quan Zhilong's swelling subside, she smiled and called out before getting out of bed.

Quan Zhilong was leaving in the morning, and Wu Yunxi planned to stay home for the morning, waiting for Quan Zhilong to start rehearsals before heading to the TV station. Afterwards, they would watch Quan Zhilong rehearse and perform, and then go home together.

Yes, after the New Year, the two of them officially began living together. Although they had lived together from time to time before, now they were living together completely.

Wu Yunxi felt that since they had already officially met each other's elders and could visit each other's homes during the New Year, there seemed no point in agonizing over whether to live together or not. Furthermore, Quan Zhilong had always found various excuses to stay. Instead of making Quan Zhilong rack his brains to come up with excuses, it was better to be open and honest about his concern, something that wasn't too shameful.

Wu Yunxi's frank and open thoughts also made Quan Zhilong fall in love with her, and of course he readily agreed to this suggestion. After the two of them lived together, their lives became more harmonious. Sometimes when they woke up in the morning and could eat ready-made breakfast, Wu Yunxi also felt that this was really good, especially when she could see Quan Zhilong as soon as she opened her eyes. In short, every aspect of their life was good. Their nightlife was also quite harmonious. The two of them could talk about work-related matters. It felt like no one was more compatible than the two of them.

Quan Zhilong himself, of course, had no objections. He even felt that he had already experienced their married life in advance. It seemed that the idea of getting married was even stronger. It even developed to the point that if he saw someone proposing or seeing people sharing their feelings on the post, Quan Zhilong would also want to show off. Unfortunately, Wu Yunxi noticed Quan Zhilong's behavior and stopped him in advance. However, even so, Quan Zhilong still showed off secretly on his own account, and some people even followed him to know the final outcome of this relationship.

Wu Yunxi cleaned up but didn't change her clothes. Quan Zhiyong, after the swelling subsided, changed and waited for his manager to arrive.

Ding Dong!

When Wu Yunxi heard the doorbell ring, she immediately went to open it. Standing at the door was Quan Zhiyong's manager.

"Oppa's still cleaning up, come in first, hyung."

"Okay, sorry to bother you then."

The manager had the password to Quan Zhiyong's previous house, but since Quan Zhiyong spent most of his time with Wu Yunxi, and even now that they were living together, there was no way he could come in without knocking. What if he saw something he shouldn't? And since their own artist wasn't living in their own house, but in Wu Yunxi's, asking for the key or password was even more impossible.

Because of Quan Zhiyong, the manager and Wu Yunxi still had a lot of contact, but Quan Zhiyong was usually there, which made Wu Yunxi feel a little awkward.

Fortunately, Quan Zhiyong quickly cleaned up and came out, otherwise Wu Yunxi wouldn't have known what to do.

"Brother, you're here? I'm ready, let's go."

After changing, Gon Ji-yong emerged to see his manager and his girlfriend sitting on the sofa. They were chatting, but even from a distance, the atmosphere felt awkward, prompting Gon Ji-yong to immediately greet his manager.

"Okay, we have a lot to do today."

The manager was also feeling a bit awkward, not knowing what to say. If they were to discuss their connection, Gon Ji-yong and Wu Yunxi lived together, so there was little they didn't know. But if they were to discuss Gon Ji-yong's past, the manager knew he couldn't bring himself to broach the subject. So, after a few words, the conversation fizzled out.

Gon Ji-yong's appearance instantly saved the day for the two.

"Babe, be sure to come see us,"

Gon Ji-yong urged Wu Yunxi before leaving, a worrying reminder that left her feeling a bit amused, but she nodded in agreement.

Only then did Gon Ji-yong leave with peace of mind.

When Wu Yunxi was alone at home, she was truly happy. She thoroughly enjoyed this rare moment, but looking around, she felt like there was nothing else she needed to do, so she simply lay on the sofa and watched videos. She had originally planned to play for a while before packing her suitcase, but time slipped by unnoticed as she did so. It

was already noon, but the videos were so exciting that Wu Yunxi didn't even feel like getting up to make lunch, and she didn't even feel hungry. When Quan Jiyong called from lunchtime to ask what Wu Yunxi had eaten, he heard her hesitant and guessed she hadn't eaten at all.

How could Quan Jiyong be satisfied with this? She had been so confident when she'd said it, so why couldn't she just eat properly?

After giving Wu Yunxi a few words on the other end of the phone, Quan Jiyong ordered takeout for her on his phone, and then told her to eat when it arrived. He finished his meal and then went back to work.

Wu Yunxi nodded, then remembered that Quan Ji-yong couldn't see, so she could only smile and agree. When the takeaway Quan Ji-yong ordered arrived, Wu Yunxi took a photo of Quan Ji-yong and sent it to him. After eating, she sent him another photo, but Quan Ji-yong was busy and had no time to look at his phone.

After finishing her meal, Wu Yunxi chose to take a break. After a short break of about twenty minutes, Wu Yunxi went into the cloakroom to change clothes, and then went to the TV station to find Quan Ji-yong.

Wu Yunxi dressed up nicely today. Well, she felt like she wanted to dress up to attend Quan Ji-yong's music stage performance. But it seemed that there was nothing wrong with saying that. After all, she just wanted to dress nicely to commemorate the day when she first saw Quan Ji-yong's music stage performance.

If she had been a child, how could she have imagined the life she has now?

After arriving at the TV station, Wu Yunxi parked the car and called Quan Ji-yong.

"Oppa, I'm already at the TV station."

Quan Zhilong was putting on makeup at the time. When he heard Wu Yunxi's words, he moved a little too much. The makeup artist patted him down before he calmed down.

"Sorry, BABE, I

'm putting on makeup now. I'll ask my agent to pick you up."
