Everyone Knows I’m a Good Person

Chapter 114.2

Editor: Casey

But no matter how much Cheng Yunling regretted her choice to help Shi Qing, she had already promised. This young master probably saw her as some kind of relationship expert since her relationship with her boyfriend was so harmonious.

Ever since then, Shi Qing hovered around her day and night. He observed her on set and stayed at the same hotel as her too.

He took notes very seriously the entire time.

His determination to learn was very admirable, but the problem was Cheng Yunling had nothing to teach him.

And because Shi Qing always came to bug her, the two-person world of her and her boyfriend suddenly expanded into a beautiful triangle.

She decided that escape was her only option.

Luckily, they were almost finished filming, so she could go home. Her boyfriend also happened to be free, so they could go back to enjoying a lovely two-person world.

However, Cheng Yunling couldn't have ever expected what happened next.

She had underestimated the extent of Shi Qing's shamelessness.

This shameless guy actually tagged along.

He tagged along!!!

And he even had the cheek to stay at her house too. Thank goodness her boyfriend didn't mind.

But Cheng Yunling suspected that her boyfriend didn't seem to mind because he didn't realize just how annoying Shi Qing was.

Sometimes, Cheng Yunling would have to stay up late when her boyfriend was already asleep, lecturing about all the relationship tips she found on the internet in a dejected manner.

After just five days, she couldn't take it anymore.

However, Shi Qing was quite happy staying with her.

Especially when he found out that Tan Mingjin sent people to follow him around.

He really settled into Cheng Yunling's place.

Time always goes by fast when you're having fun. However, the System was getting anxious as the month deadline was almost up.

[Host, what should we do? Time's almost up but her animosity value still hasn't moved, ah.]

Shi Qing: [Don't fret. Don't you feel like it's good enough her animosity value didn't spike up to 100?]

System: […]

Actually, it did think that.

Just look at what its Host was doing right now.

He was sprawled across Cheng Yunling's sofa, watching TV and holding the milk that Cheng Yunling personally poured for him while munching on the fruit that Cheng Yunling had personally bought and cut up for him. He would also occasionally chat with Cheng Yunling's boyfriend, who was sitting on the other side, about interesting games.

The scene painted a beautiful picture of an obnoxious young master.

While Shi Qing was snacking on sunflower seeds while watching TV, his phone suddenly rang. He immediately got up and hollered at the top of his lungs, "Cheng Yunling, it's eight o'clock! Time for class!"

Cheng Yunling, who was putting on a face mask, walked out with a dark look on her face.

It was really dark. Even darker than her face mask.

The alarm was still ringing.

To Cheng Yunling, this wasn’t an alarm anymore. This was like an everyday summons.

Sometimes, she truly suspected that Shi Qing wasn’t actually trying to learn from her. Maybe this kid was still sour about Tan Mingjin treating her a little differently before, and this was his way of getting back at her.

When Cheng Yunling sat down, the arrogant young master already had his notebook out.

Cheng Yunling: …Lunatic.

Forget it.

Think of your popularity, your fans, and your future career!

She could still endure!

"Shi Qing, how am I supposed to pass this stage? I've tried so many times already."

Just after the 'lecture', Cheng Yunling's boyfriend came and handed over his laptop with a pensive look.

"Oh, this? It's simple. Just do what I say. Go here first, then here, then that spot over there…:"

Cheng Yunling: "…"

Holy shit.

When did these two get so close?

Forget it, bear with it.

Just pretend not to see anything.

That night, the couple laid under the same blanket. Cheng Yunling even made a special effort to put some perfume on. She comfortably burrowed into her boyfriend's arms.

Her boyfriend: "Don't lean on me. I'm playing multiplayer with Shi Qing. You being so close will throw me off my game."

Cheng Yunling: "…"

She couldn't take it anymore!!!

She put up with Shi Qing mooching off her!!

She put up with him forcing an amateur like her to be a relationship expert!

She put up with his attitude all day by thinking about that variety show!!

But now!

He actually took her boyfriend too!

This was unacceptable!

Absolutely unacceptable!

Cheng Yunling stormed to Shi Qing's room and banged on the door.

She had to tell this guy that enough was enough!

Get out! Get out right now!

What variety show?! What resources?!?

She doesn't want those things anymore!!!

"Come in."

From inside came the youth's slightly hoarse voice. Cheng Yunling didn't pay that much thought and barged in.

She froze as soon as she entered.

Shi Qing really was sitting in front of the computer playing a game, but his eyes were rimmed with red and he was sniffling. He looked pitiful like he had just been crying.

He was naturally good-looking. As soon as his tyrannical young master act was dropped, his innate ability to make people pity him resurfaced. This was magnified by his current sorry state.

Cheng Yunling's heart immediately softened.

Even her voice lowered by eight hundred times: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I was just playing this game when I remembered my uncle."

Shi Qing sniffled, appearing even more pitiful. Even his voice was quieter and stickier than usual. It made people want to scoop him up and pamper him.

"Uncle used to hate it when I played games. He scolded me every time he caught me. But no one's here to tell me not to stay up all night anymore."

He wiped the tears from his face with one hand and looked at Cheng Yunling pitifully, "Luckily I still have you to help me. Otherwise I really don't know what I would do."

Cheng Yunling's heart melted into a soft mess.

She might've always found Shi Qing annoying, but when she thought about it, he only had one family member left by his side, President Tan.

President Tan was his whole world. And now his whole world was gone.

He was already like this, so how could she kick him out?

Cheng Yunling looked at Shi Qing with more and more pity. She said seriously, "Don't worry, I'll go find President Tan tomorrow. If he really doesn't feel that way about you, you should give up. Heartbreak is better than losing the only family you have left."

"En…"

Young Master Shi nodded with very pitiful red-rimmed eyes. He was rarely this meek. "I'll listen to you."

What a pitiful child, ah.

Cheng Yunling sighed inside. "Hurry up and go to sleep. Don't worry, even if you and President Tan really fall out, I'll still be here for you as your friend. I won't leave you."

Shi Qing, who had just looked soft and pitiful, immediately changed his tune: "You said that yourself. I didn't force you."

With that, he opened the drawer and took out the bowl of spicy noodles hidden inside. He slurped up a mouthful. The spice made his eyes redden even more.

Cheng Yunling: "……"

"Shi Qing!!! How many times have I told you!!! No eating in the bedroom!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh, you're going to be the death of me!"

***

The next day, Cheng Yunling, who couldn't stand Shi Qing anymore, surrendered and asked to meet Tan Mingjin.

Fortunately, Tan Mingjin had given her his contact information after helping her out in their first meeting.

She felt a bit weird using this contact information so she could speak on behalf of Shi Qing, who she previously considered the 'culprit'.

Tan Mingjin knew that Shi Qing was staying at Cheng Yunling's house recently, so he agreed to meet up.

He desperately wanted to know what was going on with Shi Qing. Not things like what the person he hired reported about him having two bowls of congee, one egg, and two fried dough sticks for breakfast, but what was going on in Shi Qing's mind.

Had he really decided to abandon his uncle because Tan Mingjin had not agreed to his relationship with a scam artist?

The thought of this made the man's heart sour and ache.

There was always someone in the world that you couldn't live without. You couldn't bear to hit or scold them, nor could you let go when they leave.

Shi Qing was the one that Tan Mingjin couldn't let go of.

At this moment, he was sitting opposite Cheng Yunling with a serious face.

Cheng Yunling twirled the spoon in her hand haphazardly. Strange enough, she felt like she was here to play matchmaker. "Um, President Tan, I know you only see Young Master Shi as a junior. You must've been quite shocked when he confessed to you. I understand if you couldn't accept it right away. Actually, he told me a little about how he really felt while staying at my house. He's not doing so well. He cries day and night. But his feelings for you aren't something he can control, so…"

Tan Mingjin: "…Wait, what did you just say?"

Cheng Yunling froze: "I said he cries day and night…"

Tan Mingjin: "No, the next sentence."

Cheng Yunling: "His feelings for you-"

-Crack!

The glass in the man's hand fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

He suddenly rose to his feet amidst the debris..

His handsome and usually composed face was blank. "Shi Qing…likes me…?"

Cheng Yunling: "…Uh, yeah, but didn't you know that already from last time-"

Tan Mingjin: "Shi Qing likes me?"

Cheng Yunling: "Yes."

Tan Mingjin: "Shi Qing likes me."
