TN: Sorry for the late update, my health is unsurprising super bad, can’t promise updates will go back to normal but i’ll try my best.

Shen Qingshu stayed on the set for a while longer, then left for dinner with Zhou Jianming.

After dinner, Shen Qingshu and Zhou Jianming walked back together. They had just reached the door of their hotel room, preparing to scan their room card. When they looked down, they saw a small white snake squeezing its head to get in through the crack under the door.

Shen Qingshu: …

Shen Qingshu looked at the snake in front of him in surprise. The little white snake, who had already entered half of her small head, retracted her head and looked back at him. Little head raised high.

Shen Qingshu: …

“Again, see you again.” Shen Qingshu hesitated to say hello to it.

The little white snake seemed very happy. As soon as the snake turned, it quickly wound around his legs and began to climb up along his legs.

Shen Qingshu had a subtle feeling of being climbed by it. He simply bent down and picked it up and pulled it away from his legs.

Seeing this, the little white snake immediately wrapped its tail around his wrist and rubbed her head on his arm.

“It seems to like you.” Zhou Jianming commented.

“Really?” Shen Qingshu was surprised, “But I haven’t spent much time with it.”

“Maybe you were Xu Xian1 in your last life and she was the white lady, so she’s looking for you to repay her in this life.”

Shen Qingshu: ! ! !

“It can’t be.”

“Why not,” Zhou Jianming deliberately teased him, “Everyone calls this snake species white lady, why can’t she be the real white lady.”

Shen Qingshu: …

Shen Qingshu glanced at the little white snake on his wrist. The little white snake was lying on his wrist, acting obedient.

“I’ll go and return him to Bai Xuege.” He said.

“I’ll go with you. Xiao Li, you go back first.”

“Okay.” Xiao Li said and walked to his room.

Shen Qingshu and Zhou Jianming got on the elevator and went to Bai Xuege’s room.

Zhou Jianming knocked on the door and waited for a long time, but he didn’t get a response.

“Is he not in?” He asked.

“It’s possible.” Shen Qingshu replied, “Let me ask him on wechat.”

“Do you have his wechat?” Zhou Jianming was surprised, “Are you so familiar?”

“Of course not. The crew has built a group. I added him through the group.”

Zhou Jianming responded, “I was just about to say, I thought you added his wechat after the confrontation this morning.”

“If we are not medium rare, we are at least an eighth there.”

Zhou Jianming laughed and walked back with him.

Shen Qingshu took a picture of the little white snake on his wrist. Then he pinged Bai Xuege in the group and waited for him to notice.

Bai Xuege was having dinner in the restaurant when he suddenly saw a little red dot on wechat. Opening it he saw Shen Qingshu sent him a friend application.

Gee, recently fans have become so impatient. Can’t help it? Can’t wait to add your idol’s wechat?

So fanatic!

Bai Xuege hesitated for a moment and thought his fan is also an actor now, therefore a colleague. There should be no problem to add a wechat, so he accepted his application.

Bai Xuege: [What’s up?]

Shen Qingshu quickly replied, “Something related to you. Your little white snake ran outside again, but you don’t have to worry. She’s currently safe with me.”

He sent the photo he had just taken and explained: “I planned to send her back to you, but you’re not in your room. That’s why I sent you a wechat friend request.”

Bai Xuege opened the photo and saw his little daughter coiled around Shen Qingshu’s wrist, with her head on his arm and a comfortable expression.

Bai Xuege: …

Bai Xuege is so angry that he threw his mobile phone on the table. What’s this?

Run away from home! Twice! And staying with the same man!

The first time is a coincidence. What about the second time? Is this a coincidence?!

It was intentional!

It’s because his little fan is handsome!

Bai Xuege was almost turned crazy by his underage daughter. Wasn’t there a saying that animals entered the estrous season when spring came?

It’s almost winter. She not only didn’t hibernate and wanted to find a boyfriend?!

You’re still a baby, a baby!

Looking for a boyfriend for yourself at this time, do you want to be a child bride?!

Bai Xuege covers his painful heart. The saying that daughters are little cotton padded jackets is a lie2!

This is not a little cotton padded jacket!

This is clearly black hearted cotton!

The icy type!

Qin Yingyang looked at him and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“See for yourself.” He threw his cell phone to Qin Yingyang.

Qin Yingyang looked at it and said in surprise, “Xiao Qi likes him quite a lot.”

“Right? Look at her. Usually, Xiao Wang touching her will result in bitess. Now she lies on Shen Qingshu’s hand obediently. People would mistake him as her father!”

“So you’re angry that she found a father outside?”

“What do you think?” Bai Xuege was speechless. “Am I not good enough for her? There’s no way she’s going around looking for another father!

“Then she is…” Qin Yingyang doesn’t quite understand.

“She’s not looking for a secondary father, but a boyfriend!” Bai xuege looked experienced “I know my daughter best.” The whole snake is clearly expressing she has a crush on Shen Qingshu and wants to recognize him as a boyfriend!

Qin Yingyang almost spit out a mouthful of water. She choked and coughed for a long time. “You think too much. Xiao Qi is still a cub.”

“Haven’t you heard of adopting into the family in preparation for marriage?”

Qin Yingyang: … So you’re angry that both father and daughter like the same person?

What kind of Tom sue is this? One person and one snake fall in love with him!

“I think you may be thinking too much.” Qin Yingyang tried to use rational thinking to persuade him, “Xiao Qi should just want to play and happened to be picked up, that’s all.”

“Twice! He happened to pick her up? Coincidence is all you have to explain? Then why didn’t you pick her up?”

Qin Yingyang:

“Let’s say the first time is unintentional, but this is the second time, it must be intentional! You see how she looks around Shen Qingshu’s hand, just like a girl in love!”

Qin Yingyang: “Can I ask you, how do you see love from a snakes face?”

“Of course it’s through emotional connection from the heart, otherwise am I her father or are you her father.”

Qin Yingyang: …

Qin Yingyang silently picked up the teacup.

Bai Xuege sighed, “I didn’t expect that I will have a son-in-law so soon, one that is the same species with me.”

Qin Yingyang almost choked on her mouthful of tea. “Why is he your son-in-law?”

“Xiao Qi is my daughter. Isn’t he my son-in-law?” Bai Xuege looked at her and said, “Can’t you understand familial relations?”

Qin Yingyang: …

“Shen Qingshu is five years older than you.”

“Exactly! What is Xiao Qi thinking? It’s love between a child and an adult! Fortunately, she’s a snake. If she were a human, Shen Qingshu would have to go to jail now!”

Qin Yingyang: ! ! !

Isn’t that what I’m worried about ! !

Good guy, your father and daughter are both evil men and women. Double kill! Neither man nor beast is willing to let him go!

What bad deed has he done!

To have encountered you evil father and daughter!

“So can we give up this terrifying assumption and just treat Xiao Qi as an ordinary runaway who ran into him by coincidence and has no other thoughts about him.”

“Do you believe it?”

“Of course I do.”

Bai Xuege sneered, “Deceiving yourself and others.”

Qin Yingyang: …

Qin Yingyang feels tired.

Bai Xuege picked up the mobile phone again and replied to his future son-in-law: [Ok, thank you. I’ll come and retrieve her later.]

Shen Qingshu didn’t know that he had been tagged as a prospective son-in-law, and politely replied: [Ok.]

“Let’s go.” Bai Xuege stood up and said, “Go and pick up my unfilial daughter back home.”

“You won’t talk nonsense when you see Shen Qingshu?”

“Of course not. It’s not so easy to be my son-in-law. I have to test him.”

Qin Yingyang: …

“Believe me, it’s really just a coincidence.”

Bai Xuege looked at her. “You believe me, I know my daughter best as her father. She must have feelings for Shen Qingshu.”

Only an idiot would believe you! Qin Yingyang complained in her heart.

The two returned to the hotel, entered the elevator and went to Shen Qingshu’s room.

Seeing them coming, Shen Qingshu quickly stretched out his right hand and let the little white snake on his hand appear in Bai Xuege’s vision.

Bai Xuege reluctantly picked up his daughter and said to Shen Qingshu, “Thank you. She didn’t love running away from home so much before. I don’t know what’s been causing so much trouble these two days.”

“No trouble.”

Shen Qingshu stayed with the little white snake for half an hour. Seeing that it had been lying obediently on his hands and rubbing against his arms from time to time, he couldn’t help liking her more. “She’s very cute.”

“You think she’s cute?” Bai Xuege asked in surprise.

Shen Qingshu nodded. “Yes.”

Damm, it’s mutual love!

The old father Bai Xuege looked at the prospective son-in-law in front of him, “Don’t you think snakes are disgusting?”

“Some snakes are scary, but your snake is very cute and obedient.”

He not only thinks she’s cute, but also thinks she’s obedient!

They are so in love, like mung beans. Looking at each other!3

“Then you don’t think snake owner’s are disgusting and abnormal?”

“Of course not. Pet snakes are also a kind of pet. As long as they are not poisonous snakes and can’t harm people. Within their own house people can own whatever pets they like.”

This is quite open-minded. There should be no domestic violence in the future.

“Do you like snake soup?” Bai Xuege asked.

Shen Qingshu: ? ? ? ?

“I haven’t tried it.” Shen Qingshu answered honestly.

Bai Xuege nodded. That’s good. There won’t be domestic violence or being swallowed into the stomach. They can grow old together and die.

Bai Xuege looked at his daughter who wanted to fall in love early before coming of age. He thought it was fine. Although the son-in-law was a little worse than him in both age and status, who made him be an enlightened old father who thought it was fine as long as his daughter liked him.

“Then I’ll go back first. If you need anything in the future, feel free to send me a wechat.”

“Okay.” Shen Qingshu responded.

Completely unaware that after this conversation, he became someone else’s prospective son-in-law – the kind who passed the examination of his father-in-law.

Bai Xuege took his daughter back to the room, put his little daughter on the table and began to sternly educate.

“Who do you think you are? White lady? Play the legend of the white snake in front of me?”

Xiao Qi lay on the table silently and pulled herself into a straight line.

Bai Xuege knocked on the table, “You’re still a baby. This is not puppy love, but illegal underage love!”

Xiao Qi turned her head and wound herself in a coil.

“And have you thought things through? One of you is a human and the other is a snake. When you cultivate a human form in a thousand years ready to marry him and he will have reincarnated, okay?”

Xiao Qi continued to circle and became a mosquito incense coil.

“Of course, the most important thing is! What’s with you running away from home everyday? Am I not good to you? You run to him day after day. Abandoning your old father for a man who you met twice? You don’t have an arm. How could you turn your elbow out!”4 

Qin Yingyang sat aside and thought that every word was precious. Isn’t this what she wanted to say to Bai Xuege?

Now it’s better that their father and daughter fought against each other first.

Why do close fathers and daughters turn against each other? Is it the distortion of father’s love or daughter’s rebellion? What role does the new man play in this story? Welcome to the grand emotional drama 《love you more or him》!

Qin Yingyang watched Bai Xuege scolding his little daughter for a long time. Then she couldn’t help reminding him, “Aren’t you going to sleep? Don’t you want to secretly raise your spirits and surprise Shen Qingshu? Or have you changed your mind?”

After all, he is not only his prospective son-in-law, but also a fan!

So the responsible idol Bai Xuege finally stopped the task of teaching his daughter and lay in bed.

It’s a pity that his hard work showed no results. When Shen Qingshu filmed with him this afternoon, he didn’t see any difference between now and before.

Compared with him, what shocked Shen Qingshu more was meeting Xiao Qi running away from home in front of his door again.

Zhou Jianming patted him on the shoulder. “You see? Let me say it again. She must have come to repay you, Shen Xian.”

Shen Qingshu: …

Shen Qingshu had to send a message to Bai Xuege: [Although you may be surprised, your pet came out to play again. Are you in the room? I’ll send her back to you.]

When he finished, he felt pressure on his trouser legs – the little white snake had begun to climb up.

Shen Qingshu had to pick her up and bring her into his room.

Xiao Qi was much more lively this time. She climbed all the way to his shoulder and rubbed close to his face.

Shen Qingshu stroked her head. “Why did you run out again?”

The little white snake was winding around his shoulder.

Shen Qingshu took it down, put it on the table and looked at her carefully. It was really a white snake without any impurities.

“Your name is Xiao Qi, isn’t it?”

Xiao Qi raised her head and rolled her tail around the tea table, like dancing.

Shen Qingshu looked at her like this and thought it was really cute.

“Did your master give you this name because of snow white and the seven dwarfs?” He guessed curiously.

Xiao Qi looked at him with her head tilted.

Shen Qingshu laughed. “Of course you don’t understand.”

Bai Xuege’s fans usually call him snow prince or snow boy, but some fans like to call him snow white.

So when he heard Bai Xuege calling the little white snake Xiao Qi in front of him, he thought of the fairytale.

“You run out like this every day, are you not afraid of his anger?”

Xiao Qi got down and twisted herself into a wavy line to show off her talent.

Shen Qingshu seldom sees such a small and obedient pet snake. He silently took several photos of her and saved them.

He checked Bai Xuege’s wechat and didn’t see a reply. Was it still unread?

Bai Xuege certainly saw it. He not only saw it, but also showed the wechat message to Qin Yingyang. “Look, look for yourself. Now tell me that she has no intentions for Shen Qingshu. Do you believe it?”

Qin Yingyang, who is looking for their young master’s little daughter all over the place:… Father and daughter have surprisingly similar tastes!

Non blood related children are more similar than blood relations!

“Maybe Xiao Qi just wants to make friends?”

“Do you believe that’s the case? Abandon the family’s fine clothes and good food every day as well as her kind old father just for a friend? What kind of friend is so powerful, if not a boyfriend?!”

Qin Yingyang: …

“I’m so disappointed in her!” Bai Xuege sighed, “Before she’e even grown up, she’s found a lover and forgotten her father. What is she going to be like in the future?”

“It’s all right. I’ll bring her back now and make her stay away from Shen Qingshu!”

“No.” Bai Xuege stopped her, “We can’t deal with puppy love like this. It will only backfire and make their feelings stronger!”

Qin Yingyang: … You seem very experienced. Have you ever been in love? Except for your own experiences with Shen Qingshu.

“So.” Bai Xuege called his assistant to come over, “You will go with Qin jie and bring Xiao Qi’s house, her food and toys. Doesn’t she love to run away from home and want a lover instead of a father? Since it’s like this, let her boyfriend raise her!”

Qin Yingyang: ? ? ?

Bai Xuege nodded, “This unfilial daughter, our Bai family, will never have a place for her!”

“This… doesn’t seem too appropriate?”

Inexplicably force Shen Qingshu to raise your daughter for you. Will you give Shen Qingshu money?

“What’s wrong? She needs to experience suffering. She really thought I would tolerate her unconditionally. That’s it. Tell her not to find this father again in the future. I don’t have a daughter!”

Qin Yingyang: … Well, the chuuni symptoms are flaring up again.

Qin Yingyang sighed helplessly in her heart and decided to solve the matter by herself. After all, it was too difficult to persuade late stage chunni patients. She chose to talk to the normal Shen Qingshu.
