The Most Popular Comedian

Even after Rong Congyan hung up the phone, Rong Yuheng still felt that everything was quite surreal. He closed the door that no one would enter for the time being, tiptoed in slippers, and slowly walked through the corridor into the living room.

The entrance corridor of the Rong family villa was long, and Rong Yuheng didn’t turn on the lights. His silhouette appeared lonely and slightly stooped in the dim corridor.

Happiness belonged to others; he couldn’t even “p” on it.

Even after dinner and lying on the bed, Rong Yuheng was still pondering why things had turned out this way. After careful consideration, he finally found the crux of the matter—it was all because of Xun Guang’s astonishing PR skills.

…

When Wen Zhecheng’s video call rang in the room, Rong Yuheng was almost falling asleep staring at the ceiling. He shook his head to clear his mind and sat up from the bed, “Hello…?”

The video flickered twice before stabilizing. Wen Zhecheng looked like he had just taken a shower, his hair still damp. He adjusted the camera to focus on his face and casually revealed his collarbone.

“Zaizai, what are you doing?”

Rong Yuheng had experienced a rollercoaster of emotions that day, originally physically and mentally exhausted. However, seeing Wen Zhecheng, his warm and caring master, being so affected, he suddenly became more spirited.

“I’m watching ‘Animal World.'”

“Is it good?”

“It’s good. There’s a peacock in it, and its tail feathers sway like a feather fan.”

“…”

Wen Zhecheng lightly furrowed his brows. Was it an illusion? He felt like there was some hidden meaning.

This momentary feeling quickly turned the page, and the two began to cherish the rare “alone time” without saying it out loud.

Wen Zhecheng knew that Rong Yuheng had a little conflict with his family, so he was a bit concerned, “How does it feel to be back home? Didn’t argue with your dad, right?”

Rong Yuheng’s expression became somewhat subtle, “No.”

Wen Zhecheng was relieved, “That’s good.”

Rong Yuheng continued, “After all, in the empty house, I’m the only one having a wild party.”

“…” Wen Zhecheng, “Is no one at your home?”

Rong Yuheng shook his head, “All gone.”

Wen Zhecheng fell silent. After a while, he comforted Rong Yuheng, “It’s okay; I’ll accompany you.”

The two sat on the bed and chatted for a while. During their conversation, Wen Zhecheng remembered the first time they watched a variety show together—the time when he was still filming for “Overseas Flowers.” He specifically made time at night to video call Rong Yuheng.

“Do you remember when we watched a variety show together through video call?” Wen Zhecheng said, “I had just taken a shower and lit some incense before opening the video.”

Rong Yuheng was shocked for a moment. What a ceremonial feeling!

He quickly reacted, “Why were you so serious? Were you interested in me back then?”

Wen Zhecheng’s face turned slightly red. He admitted, “Yes.”

Damn! Rong Yuheng’s face also blushed. He hadn’t expected Wen Zhecheng to be so straightforward, making him feel embarrassed.

With a sweet smile, he lowered his head to poke at the quilt, “So…what were you thinking at that time?”

Wen Zhecheng, who had been holding back dirty jokes all day, let them out, “Thinking about you and wanting to do something else.”

Rong Yuheng was shocked and raised his double chin, “Do…do what?!”

Wen Zhecheng stared at the screen, his Adam’s apple moving up and down twice, “Experience joy together.”

Rong Yuheng paused for two seconds, then realized—

Damn it! What the hell is this joyful cloud? Isn’t that the video thing? He shouldn’t have brought up this topic.

“I won’t allow you to think of dirty things!” Rong Yuheng raised his hand to cover half of the camera, showing only half of his face, attempting to stop Wen Zhecheng’s endless thoughts.

Wen Zhecheng, fueled by his memories, and now with Rong Yuheng as his boyfriend, felt even more fiery. He felt like he was reacting.

“How about trying it once? It doesn’t violate the second-level permissions, right?” Wen Zhecheng teased him, “This isn’t crossing into the second-level territory.”

For a moment, Rong Yuheng couldn’t find words to refute him. They had no physical contact. Naturally, they hadn’t violated any permissions.

However, this kind of thing seemed to break through the edge of his shame. Rong Yuheng didn’t know how to catch the logical flaw and argue against it.

He was hesitating whether to change the topic, but Wen Zhecheng on the other side suddenly moved. The screen zoomed out a bit, revealing the upper half of his body, and the movements of his shoulders and arms were clearly visible.

Wen Zhecheng’s earlobes had a faint blush, contrasting with his handsome and restrained face, giving rise to even more terrible yet concealed thoughts. Rong Yuheng’s heart skipped a beat.

At this moment, he found Wen Zhecheng unexpectedly sexy. He was a man too, and he was finding it a bit overwhelming. Wen Zhecheng stared at the screen as if confirming whether Rong Yuheng had any discomfort. After clarifying that the latter only had shyness and faint anticipation in his eyes, Wen Zhecheng was instantly inspired. His movements became subtle, and his breath became heavier.

Rong Yuheng sat stiffly behind the screen. Damn! Wen Zhecheng was actually doing it in front of him…

Although he couldn’t see the scenes outside the camera, just facing Wen Zhecheng’s fiery eyes was more stimulating than seeing it directly. He could even imagine Wen Zhecheng grabbing the handbrake, swaying on the winding mountain road in his luxurious Lincoln…

Wen Zhecheng, while stepping on the gas pedal, issued an invitation, “Join me… hmm?”

Rong Yuheng, holding onto his innocence, shook his head repeatedly, “No, no…

Wen Zhecheng, unwilling to give up, coaxed him, “I can’t be happy alone. I want you to be happy too.”

Rong Yuheng replied, “Your happiness has overflowed from the screen and reached me.”

Wen Zhecheng stared at his delicate collarbone, shifting gears and accelerating, “But the happiness of two people will double, double into four times… um, rounding it off to five times…”

Rong Yuheng didn’t know what to say—why could Wen Zhecheng drive while seriously making up absurd arithmetic! “If you’re going to drive, do it seriously,” Rong Yuheng averted his gaze, unable to continue watching Wen Zhecheng gradually climbing up the mountain road.

He had also been provoked into reacting.

Suddenly, Wen Zhecheng’s forehead pressed against the screen, heavy breathing hitting the bottom of the screen, and the camera was mostly blocked, only hearing a few muffled hums.

Rong Yuheng looked at the flowing time and couldn’t help but doubt, “Are you already at the finish line?”

“…” Wen Zhecheng on the other side paused and then withdrew his body, his gaze scorching and deep, “It’s the midpoint, the middle. If you don’t believe it, I can let you verify it yourself?”

Rong Yuheng, fearing that Wen Zhecheng would really show him the handbrake, quickly reached out to cover the screen, “No need, I believe you. The Lincoln Extended is a luxury car brand, and its performance must be excellent.”

Wen Zhecheng was finally satisfied, continuing to stare at his cute little boyfriend and happily driving towards the mountaintop.

…

Half an hour later, Wen Zhecheng finally reached the peak of the mountain road.

He released the handbrake, still slightly panting. It seemed like he didn’t drive up but ran up.

Rong Yuheng sincerely leaned over, “Are you happy?”

Wen Zhecheng felt comfortable all over, “I’m very happy.”

Rong Yuheng considerately sang for him, “There’s actually no reason for happiness~ Let me tell you?”

Wen Zhecheng, “…”

The night passed peacefully in the unequal happiness of the two. With Wen Zhecheng’s energetic roller coaster ride, the time Rong Yuheng spent in the loneliness of being “abandoned by family” seemed less lonely.

After a night of rest, when Rong Yuheng woke up the next day, the house was still empty.

He didn’t want to waste time idly, so he put on a hat and a mask, fully armed, intending to go out for a stroll. When Wen Zhecheng was climbing the mountain in front of the screen yesterday, Rong Yuheng caught a glimpse of his rolling Adam’s apple. Suddenly, he remembered a long time ago when Wen Zhecheng wanted to give him a tie when he escorted him home.

The upcoming schedule would be quite packed, and there probably wouldn’t be much personal time. Rong Yuheng thought that he might as well take advantage of today’s break and buy a tie for Wen Zhecheng.

Rong Yuheng went to the nearest shopping mall from home. This area was a wealthy neighborhood with a low population density, making the cost of opening a mall quite high. Therefore, the shops inside were all high-end luxury brands, each sale enough to cover the rent.

At this moment, many people were still at work, and combined with the few residents in the neighborhood, looking around the entire mall, only a few customers could be seen here and there.

There were several counters selling men’s accessories, and Rong Yuheng spent some time picking one before finally buying a dark blue tie. The tie had a smooth and delicate texture, embedded with exquisite silver threads. It looked inconspicuous at first glance, but it would subtly shine under the light.

Low-key luxury—very suitable for Wen Zhecheng.

When the salesperson at the counter was packaging it for Rong Yuheng, she joked a bit, “Are you giving it to a friend? It doesn’t look like something you would wear yourself.”

Rong Yuheng responded with an “Hmm” and asked, “How did you figure that out?”

The salesperson said, “This tie is suitable for mature and introverted men—those who usually don’t speak much but are stable and decisive. Your personality is more outgoing and affable, suitable for a fresh and bright style.”

Rong Yuheng couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up, “You’re absolutely right.”

Wen Zhecheng always secretly brewed a bellyful of naughty ideas but didn’t say much. He was a hidden pervert.

After returning home, Rong Yuheng found that the two scallops hadn’t returned yet. After packing up a bit, he prepared to return to the dormitory apartment.

Rong Yuheng currently had no interest in how the “hot air balloon journey” was progressing. He was very grateful that it was Rong Congyan involved in the entire story and not himself.

Before returning to the dormitory apartment, Rong Yuheng took a detour to Wen Zhecheng’s house. However, Wen Zhecheng wasn’t home at the moment; it was his big brother Wen Zhongyun who answered the door.

Upon seeing Rong Yuheng, Wen Zhongyun immediately exclaimed in surprise with a series of goose calls, “Khakk khakk khahakah! Little Rong, why are you here? A zhe hasn’t come back yet, come in first~”

Rong Yuheng felt particularly cordial upon seeing Wen Zhongyun. His heart, which had gradually warmed after being abandoned by the “hot air balloon small group,” responded with a string of hamster laughs, “Khekhkhkehkhe! No need, Uncle. I came to bring something for Wen Zhecheng. We agreed to have dinner together with the team members tonight, so I need to go back~”

Wen Zhongyun keenly noticed the change in how Rong Yuheng addressed him. His old eyes lit up, and he happily took the shopping bag, patting the former’s head, “Oh, you’re thoughtful. You even made a special trip!”

Rong Yuheng obediently shook his fur, “It’s nothing, nothing~”

…

That night, Rong Yuheng received a video call from Wen Zhecheng. The latter had probably just arrived home, still wearing his clothes and looking quite excited. He was holding the tie and gesturing it in front of his chest.

“Zaizai, did you personally pick this for me? It looks really good, I really like it,” exclaimed Wen Zhecheng.

Rong Yuheng felt sweet inside, “I picked it at the mall during the day. I’m glad you like it.”

As he watched Wen Zhecheng’s handsome face adorned with the dark blue tie, Rong Yuheng inexplicably felt a possessive emotion. He thought, no wonder people in love like to buy things for their partners; it’s like putting their own label on them.

Wen Zhecheng said, “Wait a moment, I’ll change into a dress shirt for you to see.”

Rong Yuheng was about to reply with a “Sure” when a picture he unintentionally came across while browsing a fan site flashed in his mind. His inner thoughts slipped out of his mouth, “How about you don’t wear any clothes and just tie it around your neck for me to see?”

Wen Zhecheng’s action of rummaging through the wardrobe abruptly stopped.

Then, he turned his gaze deep and meaningful towards Rong Yuheng on the video call, “Didn’t expect my zaizai to like this kind of… “

Rong Yuheng, catching the familiar look in his eyes, immediately reacted!

He raised a level of alertness and defended loudly, “No! I just think your Adam’s apple looks good. Tying it directly underneath is more aesthetically pleasing.”

Wen Zhecheng didn’t say anything. His gaze lingered on Rong Yuheng for two seconds, then he turned with a profound meaning, “Your wrist bones are also good-looking. Tying it above should be quite aesthetically pleasing too.”
