Husband, Spend Some Gold Coins - Chapter 87
Xie Qi participated in club activities.
Before he even went there, the money had already been sent to him.
It was strange. He probably got hundreds of thousands from Qin Yizhi. He didn’t feel any sense of reality about it, but now he could get two thousand yuan in two hours at most, and he felt it was very good from the bottom of his heart—a decent salary.
Money was never too much, especially since Qin Yizhi had deducted 500 yuan from him not long ago. Although the amount wasn’t significant, Qin Yizhi deducted it as soon as he mentioned it. Xie Qi felt like it was his salary being reduced.
How was this different from a dictator?
After that night, Qin Yizhi avoided him a bit, choosing not to sleep with Xie Qi and staying in the guest room next door.
Xie Qi was also a little angry and didn’t want to take the initiative to engage with him—it wasn’t like he had been the one taking advantage, and yet he was the one being avoided. Xie Qi felt really uncomfortable.
Maybe it was because he had called him an old pervert, and that was why Qin Yizhi deducted money from him.
Not wanting to dwell on it, Xie Qi decided not to let himself get tied to Qin Yizhi and turned his focus back to his own activities.
But before that, Xie Qi took a photo and reported it to Qin Yizhi: “Honey, I’m outside.”
He captured a clump of wildflowers by the roadside. Xie Qi believed he had some photography talent and thought the result was very good, so he sent it to Qin Yizhi, showing off a little.
Qin Yizhi quickly replied, “Very good.”
Xie Qi thought, “…”
He wanted to say something else, like, was that all? It felt perfunctory.
But when he looked down at his phone and saw that the battery was below 50%, he thought it’d be better to stop chatting. He had forgotten to bring his charger when he went out in the morning. If he had time later, he’d have to go back and get it, or his phone would be dead by the afternoon.
Xie Qi arrived at the place his senior sister had mentioned. It was still quite hot in mid-September, so he wore a thin, wide T-shirt, simple black pants, white sneakers, and a baseball cap.
His stature looked good even if he wore a sack. Even with such a simple outfit, he looked refreshing and handsome.
But Xie Qi didn’t feel very comfortable. The hot weather made his eyes uncomfortable, and he had to stop on the roadside multiple times to put in eye drops.
He couldn’t help but think that the money wasn’t easy to earn.
The location wasn’t far from the school, but to go further, he’d need a taxi—there weren’t any small yellow cars in H City, as they weren’t allowed because of city appearance regulations.
When he arrived, two girls came over to talk to him. “Xie Qi, did you read the file I sent you? Any questions?”
Xie Qi said no. Although he couldn’t get too excited, he still chatted with them for a few moments. The girls were surprised at how talkative he was despite his cool appearance. He didn’t seem difficult to get along with, and they couldn’t help but press forward, asking him, “Xie Qi, do you have someone?”
Xie Qi couldn’t help but think of what happened that night, and his face heated up—his expression was self-explanatory, but the girl with the high ponytail seemed determined to hear him say it aloud, so she urged him, and after thinking about it, Xie Qi replied, “Yes.”
One of the others whispered, “How could he not? Do you think a guy this handsome has any free time?”
“Exactly, the handsome ones get taken in high school; college sisters don’t stand a chance.”
They chatted quietly so Xie Qi wouldn’t hear.
But while the girls were friendly, the situation among the boys was different.
There were quite a few boys in the cosplay department, and some were good-looking, but few joined with pure intentions. Most came to meet girls. Seeing Xie Qi’s popularity made some of them uncomfortable. One boy remarked sarcastically, “Isn’t that a pretty face? Just what rich women love.”
“He’s already taken, yet he’s surrounded by all these girls. Must feel great.”
“I heard he’s getting paid two thousand a session, and they split the cost. For that money, they could get a grad student.”
“Want to teach him a lesson?” suggested Qu Panshan.
“How would we do that?” The others became interested.
Qu Panshan lowered his voice and shared his idea.
Meanwhile, the girls remained enthusiastic, and Xie Qi was a bit overwhelmed. Fortunately, they didn’t chat with him for long. They took out some clothes and wigs from a box. The girl with the high ponytail said proudly, “Each strand of hair is real, 100% human hair. It’s quite expensive, and few can afford it, but if it’s you, it should look perfect.”
Another girl added, “Your skin is great—so fair, and your lips are naturally red. Oh my, you look so fresh that you don’t even need lipstick.”
“Fortunately, North’s eyes are also golden, so you don’t need to wear contact lenses… Your eyes are so beautiful.”
Several girls had gathered around to do Xie Qi’s hair, which made him very uncomfortable. He wanted them to stay away from him, though there was no valid reason since he was getting paid.
If Qin Yizhi had seen it, he might have been very angry.
Thinking of this, Xie Qi couldn’t help but get distracted. In the end, was he not allowed to touch others because he wanted to be faithful to his marriage, or… or would he be jealous?
Xie Qi really wanted to know if Qin Yizhi could be jealous, even though he always wore a cold expression.
Xie Qi felt an indescribable urgency in his heart and wanted to know the answer to this question.
But when he realized it, he felt a little bored with himself. Why did he need to know such a thing?
‘Don’t think about it,’ Xie Qi warned himself seriously in his mind, pushing these messy thoughts aside.
When he refocused, he saw that the white wig had already been put on his head, and his face was covered in makeup, which felt a bit heavy. The girls had said they didn’t need to put on lipstick, but they applied it anyway.
Regarding this, they told Xie Qi guiltily, “The camera requires a lot of makeup, so you have to wear some, or else it would look too plain. But don’t worry, you’ll look great on camera!”
They handed him some clothes to change into in the dressing room.
After Xie Qi took his clothes and left, the girls sighed, somewhat jealous of his partner.
“But, is his partner a man or a woman? Was it the man in the suit in the previous photo?”
“I don’t know. I forgot to ask. Should I ask later?”
