News update: So I'll be doing the news updates when it is my turn to translate.

Our topic today is: Gong Jun a.k.a Simon a.k.a Xia Yao

Gossip around the neighborhood says that our super cute Xia Yao is an actor/model/internet idol (on weibo). He has one series under his belt which you can find in the media box above, but is still fairly new and unknown in the entertainment industry. However, I've heard that Gong Jun once took weibo by storm because of his pretty face and boyish looks.

What do you think?

***********************

The next day at his office, Xia Yao knocked on the table next to his.

"Xiao Hui, are you free?"

"Yes, what's up?"

Xia Yao said," Help me investigate someone."

"Who?"

"Yuan Zong, he lives in..."

"You mean Yuan Ru's older brother?". Xiao Hui interrupted Xia Yao.

Xia Yao became upset, "How do you know him?"

"I over heard a conversation about them. What, Yuan Ru never told you?"

In reality, the amount of time Yuan Ru spent talking to Xia Yao was event less than that of his colleagues. Every time Yuan Ru appeared at the police department, Xia Yao always made excuses to do errands, leaving her at the freedom of chatting to his friends.

"Yuan Zong used to be a former special force's soldier, after being discharged, he came home to build his own bodyguard company, which has become quite renown around the area. It's been said that their graduates are very professional, most bodyguards of idols or politicians comes from that company."

No wonder the skills of those two men were so dangerous, they were bodyguards...thinking about a dozen bodyguards that he invited, Xia Yao felt somewhat shameful. As for Yuan Zong's, Xia Yao turned deathly pale. The event yesterday has become clearer now. "You go your way, I'll go my way, I'll act like this person never walked into my life."

During lunch hours, Yuan Ru started to prattle about Xia Yao again, as if she wanted to brainwash Yuan Zong, want him to completely accept this "brother in law", and then for him to exert energy to help her.

"Big brother, do you know what Xia Yao hates to be called the most?"

Yuan Zong, who was eating noodles, didn't have any types of reaction.

"His high majesty!" Yuan Ru bursts out laughing, "That is what his colleagues in his unit told me, just call Xia Yao by the name and his face will immediately stretch out...like this.

As she said so, Yuan Ru pulled her own chin down, imitating Xia Yao's gestures, laughing at her own joke.

Yuan Zong glared at Yuan Ru, making this little sis shut her mouth and return to eating in a docile manner.

After a bit, Yuan Ru risked opening her mouth again, "Big brother, can you just help me with this one teeny whinny thing?"

"Speak!"

Yuan Ru turned around and pulled out a beautifully wrapped box from inside her leather handbag, carefully placing it in front of Tuan Zong like it was precious.

"Xia Yao likes to eat sweets, this are the cookies I made with my own hands, can you please give it to him for me? Every time I try to give him a present, he never accepts, this time, if you personally try, maybe he'll take it? Perhaps the moment he realize my great cooking skills, he'll like me!" (In your dreams, Yuan Ru...muahahahaha )

Yuan Ru was only babbling on because she was afraid Yuan Zong would not take any notice of her, however, he was extremely comfortable taking the box.

This is the first time such thing has happened, making her feel a bit unsettled, "I say, don't try to sneak any cookies."

Then Yuan Ru reflected on the unlikelihood of this happening, "Oh wait, I forgot, you don't eat sweets, that's it, I lay my hopes on you!"

Yuan Zong held onto his cold exterior as he climbed into his car, then wasted no time to finish off the whole box of cookie. After that, he threw the cookie box away, and drove on...

As the sun set over the horizon, Xia Yao drove out of the police headquarters, with an aim to experience the freedom of having no one chasing him, it was so freaking great. Then from afar, appeared a familiar silhouetted vehicle parked by the sidewalk.

Yuan Zong was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses, sitting behind two layers of windshield. Even so, Xia Yao could still feel those two intimidating glares that held so much power.

Xia Yao pretended not to notice, like he hasn't seen anything, but the moment his car started to move, the other followed.

Three types of fire ignited within Xia Yao: light - evil - demon combined to form a triple flame coming out of his head. Where did this kind of annoying person come from? You've got to be fucking kidding me! Why is he back?

[1] I'm so sorry T_T...I tried translating this part as best I could buy unless you're Chinese or Vietnamese, what miss Chai was referring to here is really hard to understand, since she is using literary words referring to Chinese martial arts movies. In conclusion, what she is trying to describe here is the fact the Xia Yao was reallllyyyyy angry! :))))

At an intersection, Xia Yao pulled over.

Yuan Zong pressed it down, not waiting for Xia Yao to open his mouth before placing the cookie box in front of his face.

"My little sister want to give you this present."

Xia Yao pressed his hands against the window frame, leaning forward, "I will say this one more time, I will not take whatever she gives me, tell her to cease all this nonsense!"

Yuan Zonng said, "I'm only the messenger."

Vein lines popped out of Xia Yao's nape, his sharp eyes stared at Yuan Zong's cold hard face for a long time, and ended with a sentence, "Fine, if you have courage then continue to follow me, let's see who has more free time? You or me?!"
