Chapter 416: Going to the Cemetery?

Shen Xi continued walking without showing any reaction. She walked towards the entrance at a normal pace so that she would not seem abnormal.

“Shen Xi!” Fu Junqiu saw the girl ignoring her and shouted louder before chasing after her.

Shen Xi’s mind buzzed for a moment. ‘How did she recognize me when I’m dressed like this? I didn’t even acknowledge her, but why is she still calling out to me and even caught up to me?!’

Fu Junqiu also wondered how she could recognize Shen Xi without even seeing her face. She had only seen Shen Xi once, so perhaps it was because Shen Xi had a unique aura. Fu Junqiu ran over and tugged on Shen Xi’s arm. She sounded a little aggrieved as she said, “Why did you ignore me?”

Shen Xi sighed in resignation. Since they had come to this point, it was pointless to deny it. She was polite and detached as she looked at Fu Junqiu. “Hello, Ms. Fu.”

“What Ms. Fu?! You’re too polite! Call me Auntie.” Fu Junqiu was friendly with Shen Xi.

Shen Xi looked at the woman in front of her and thought she was similar to Fu Qingye. Fu Junqiu was straightforward and never beat around the bush, and very lovable.

Fu Junqiu saw Shen Xi was silent and took advantage to say, “Then don’t call me Auntie, just call me Sister!”

Shen Xi was not so unruly. Since she had decided to stay away from the Fu family, she could no longer be over-friendly to them. “Ms. Fu, you’re joking.”

“I’m not joking, I’m serious!” Fu Junqiu then pulled Shen Xi over intimately. Her eyes were shining brightly. “Are you working for this company? Are you familiar with Qi Xiu? I’m his fan, so can you take me inside to get an autograph?”

Shen Xi thought of a hundred reasons why Fu Junqiu would show up in front of her office, but fangirling was not one of them. If Shen Xi did not keep her cool, her eyes would have popped out and fallen to the ground.

‘Aunt Fu is a fangirl?!’

Looking at the current situation, Fu Junqiu was the obsessed and crazy kind…

“You’re an artist of this company, right? Can you please take me to meet Qi Xiu?” Fu Junqiu looked at Shen Xi expectantly. When Shen Xi did not answer, she looked a little disappointed and muttered, “If you’re not, forget it… I’ll just wait out here.”

Shen Xi was shocked but she had her poker face on. ‘With her status and net worth, does she even need to wait at the building entrance just to meet a small-time idol? Just say the word, and every agency and artist will rush over to sign autographs and take photos with her!’

In the end, Shen Xi could not help but ask, “How long have you been waiting?”

Fu Junqiu recalled. “Three days. The first day, I was waiting for He Pei, but he’s not my type when I saw him in person, so I switched over to Qi Xiu now! I saw Qi Xiu enter the building two days ago, but he hasn’t come out since.”

Shen Xi was speechless. ‘Wow… She’s not ashamed at all and switches idols like changing clothes. She even has so much perseverance to squat in front of the office. This spirit is truly commendable…’

“Then you should go in. I’ll continue to wait.” Fu Junqiu did not want to bother Shen Xi. She waved at Shen Xi and asked, “Do you want a corndog? I bought a few… They’re still hot!”

Shen Xi looked at Fu Junqiu’s confidence and enthusiasm and suddenly felt distressed. She felt a little pity for Fu Junqiu and turned to look at her. “You wanna meet Qi Xiu? Come with me then!”

Since Qi Xiu came to the Capital, the office was his second home. It was normal for Qi Xiu to stay here for a week, let alone two days. He would eat and sleep in the office and would not step a foot outside, so there was no way Fu Junqiu could see him if she waited out here.

Initially, Qi Xiu stayed in his own Director’s Office, but the Director’s Office did not have a lounge, so Shen Xi, who seldom went to the office, allowed Qi Xiu to use the lounge in her office as his bedroom.

Shen Xi naturally welcomed such a workaholic who worked hard without being told to.

“Really?” Fu Junqiu regained her excitement and with a surprised face, she said, “Then wait for me! I’ll go get my flowers and CDs.”

Shen Xi turned around again and saw Fu Junqiu had left. She was running as if Shen Xi would leave her behind. She darted back once she got her things.

She thought about the three Fu brothers and Mama Fu, then looked at the woman in front of her. There was no way Shen Xi could connect Fu Junqiu with the Fu family, but she was adorable and was not at all snobby.

Outsiders would assume that Fu Junqiu was an ordinary rich girl. After all, her sports car was worth a lot of money.

Fu Junqiu held the flowers in her left hand and two sticks of corndogs in her right hand. She handed one to Shen Xi and asked, “Do you want one?”

Shen Xi shook her head. “No thanks.”

Fu Junqiu was a little disappointed, but that was brushed off quickly and she continued rambling, “It’s delicious!”

Shen Xi did not speak. When she inadvertently saw the flowers from the corner of her eye, she almost fell flat on her face.

Chrysanthemums.

The bouquet Fu Junqiu was holding was chrysanthemums.

‘Is she going to see her idol or to the cemetery?! Is it because she grew up abroad and didn’t know that in China, chrysanthemums are generally used for visiting graves?’

Moreover, the Chinese Tomb Sweeping Day was only a few days away!

Shen Xi did not know if she should remind Fu Junqiu.

“Why chrysanthemums?” Shen Xi could not hold back.

Fu Junqiu’s answer was simple. “Qi Xiu said that it’s his favorite flower!”

She whipped out her phone after she said that to show Shen Xi a recent interview of Qi Xiu.

[Favorite flower: chrysanthemums.]

Shen Xi asked her implicitly, “Do you know when chrysanthemums are generally used the most in China?”

Fu Junqiu replied, “Qingming Festival, a.k.a Tomb Sweeping Day!”

Shen Xi almost choked and thought, ‘If you know, why are you still sending chrysanthemums to your idol?! Maybe she’s our rival’s spy!’

Since Fu Junqiu was well aware, Shen Xi had no further comments. She could just imagine Qi Xiu’s expression when he saw the chrysanthemums and felt a vague pain in her heart.

At this time of day, most staff had gone home and only a few were working overtime.

Besides the shareholders and upper management, no one else knew of Shen Xi’s identity. They only saw her as Chairman Yuan’s friend who would sometimes drop by.

Shen Xi informed Yuan Yu and Qi Xiu not to reveal her identity before she took Fu Junqiu with her to the Music Department’s recording studio.

Qi Xiu exited the studio and bumped into Shen Xi. He smiled and waved at her, then saw Fu Junqiu. “Hello.”

Fu Junqiu sized up the young man in front of her and smiled broadly. “Hello, I’m your fan!”

Shen Xi noticed Fu Junqiu was different from her obsessive fangirl demeanor earlier when she saw her idol. Fu Junqiu was no longer a nervous star-struck fangirl. Instead, she was calm, but her eyes were bright and she was obviously very fond of him. To be exact, it was admiration, kind of like she was looking at a precious gem for sale. Shen Xi felt that it was a little strange.
