"Then... just close your eyes for a moment, okay?"
"Good~"
Xiwang closed his eyes obediently.
His vision went dark, but his other senses became sharp... He could hear Eden standing up, smell the sweet aroma of roasted marshmallows approaching, and feel her hand gently push him to lie down on the recliner.
Immediately, he could feel her sitting on him, her warm breath close to him, and a slightly soft feeling on his chest... Then, he could feel a ball of crispy and soft cloud stuffed in his mouth.
Ah…the familiar feeling of roasting marshmallows!
Xi Wang opened his eyes, feeling a little helpless... He always felt like he was being teased again.
"Humph~?"
Eden smiled happily, with a hint of pride in her eyes. She ate the remaining marshmallows on the bamboo stick, then lay in his arms and stretched out her hand to gently pull his cheek.
"Xiwang is a little greedy~"
She said so.
"Yes? No?"
"There was a hint of disappointment in Xiwang's eyes just now. I saw it~"
"No, you saw it wrong."
"Hehe~? Let's just leave it at that~"
Eden smiled somewhat smugly, then moved his body so that he could lie in Xiwang's arms, and looked at the terminal screen with him.
"Let's tell everyone about this happy event~"
"Hmm... let me think about how to say it... ah, got it!"
Xiwang thought about it for a while and soon came up with an idea.

"Ha ha……"
Eden smiled happily at the interesting comments from everyone, and then took the initiative to reach out and edit the next update with Xiwang.

Xiwang posted a dynamic: I mean Marshmallow, what are you talking about? So weird?
Don't look down on the figures! :……
Gorgeous flying flowers: ...
Lelelele:?
Ahaha!: Oh no, I'm the funniest thing... fun.

COOL: cool.
All the good names have been taken: @COOL, your reply is somewhat lame.
It's time to eat! : It seems that the name given by His Majesty is more or less correct [funny]
11141115114: Now everyone has become a clown... Wait, the blogger didn’t post the photos, could it be that... we have become part of their play?
Yunshangyun: @11141115114, now that I think about it, it doesn’t seem unacceptable…
The Three Laws of Humanity: @云上云, do you want to take a look at what you are talking about?
The bad names are gone: Trash blogger! Cheating fans! Unfollowed! Need a new song to stop me!

Magic Tour is in preparation! :@Human Essence, why is there one less this time... And, trash blogger! Deceiving fans! Unfollowed! Need a new song to stop me!
…………
"Hehehe..."
The two of them leaned against each other and smiled happily together, but when they saw the fans in unison urging Xiwang to sing her new song, Xiwang's smile gradually faded.
Stop urging me! I’m writing a new song! Stop urging me! — Xi Wang shouted in his heart.
After reading through the fans' messages again and confirming that there were no strange comments, Xiwang put the terminal aside, gently held Eden in his arms, and admired the cloudless night sky with her.
The sky is filled with stars. Although their light is not as clear as that of the silver moon, the dreamy scenery formed by the gathering of tiny lights is also fascinating.
"...Xi Wang, are you unhappy? About what happened just now."
He raised his hand and gently stroked Xiwang's arm, then moved slightly so that he could snuggle in his arms. The two of them squeezed into the recliner that was supposed to be used by one person only, close together.
"Huh? How could that happen?"
Xi Wang was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile.
"After all... we still have a lot of time~"
"……Oh, yes."
Eden smiled, stretched out her hands and gently hugged his chest, moved her head slightly upwards, the ends of her hair gently tickled his chin, her breath touched his neck, and his scent lingered at the tip of her nose, intertwining with her own, making it difficult to distinguish one from the other.
She smiled, smiling happily.
Time... enough for them to love.
"Xiwang, I want to sing..."
"You just finished eating barbecue, your throat will be uncomfortable, right?"
"Want to sing~?"
"Okay... then..."
"I'll go first~?"
???~
The melodious singing echoes here, and the wind flowing over the lake carries their singing far away.
Chapter 4226: "Diamond", "Gold" and "Sakura" ()
[This "team building" organized by Eden is naturally enjoyable, but anyone who has followed your online account will know that this is not a "team building" at all. This is an activity that Eden deliberately organized in order to bring you along to play legitimately and to prevent others from disturbing you.]
[In other words, the person that Eden really wants to bring with him is actually only you... at most your parents and a few close friends. As for the other people in the company, they are just "incidental" ones.]
[Although I always feel like I have become a part of some kind of play between you and Eden, but everyone doesn't mind. After all, they also enjoyed it... If there is anything worth worrying about, it is probably your few updates that night.]
[Although the comments section seems to be peaceful and joyful, some people are still unhappy, such as Eden's parents... Who told you two to dawdle like this! Acting! Act here! Play! Play there! ]
[You two are running a marathon here? Aren't you tired after running for so many years? Push on! Move forward! Why are you so slow, like you're taking a walk? Don't you even have a honeymoon period? Hurry up and run! Or do you want the Civil Affairs Bureau at the finish line to be moved in front of you? Do you think the Civil Affairs Bureau has legs?! ]
[You and Eden silently endured the accusations from Eden's parents, but you didn't seem to care... You just smiled and nodded in agreement, with a perfunctory attitude, which made your parents gasp for air, and then they left you in anger and left you alone. You can do whatever you want.]
(Eden's parents: They were so pissed off by these two little brats)
[Correspondingly, there are also your and Eden’s fans. After your few updates, your fans, either seriously or with a little playfulness, officially gave you the title of "diamond" to describe your "emotional intelligence" which is harder than stone and more unshakable than reef.]
[Fuck, everyone is hinting at you, and you are still pretending to be stupid, right? You have to take this title even if you don’t want it! — This is probably what the fans mean]
[Of course, more importantly, when people look back on your past, they will find that the title of "diamond" is indeed suitable for you]
[Diamond itself is a single crystal composed of carbon. It is a gem formed after experiencing high pressure and high temperature. It is beautiful and strong... and this happens to be similar to your past.]
[Before college, you experienced obvious school bullying, and even your hands were injured at one point. Fortunately, you recovered in the end, otherwise your future artistic career would be hard to say... and these are equated by fans with the high pressure and high temperature you have experienced]
[Since you registered your online account and became a video blogger, your videos are still mainly about playing music. You hardly post other videos. Even if you do, they are all related to art... This may be your "singleness" in "elements"]
[And that "concert" that was held in the square in front of the church just happened to bring you a huge amount of popularity... This is when your "diamond" was discovered by everyone]
[More importantly, what you have done from the beginning to the current "Bard" project is consistent and similar - playing on the street, listening to other people's stories along the way, and giving help to others to the best of your ability. All of this is seen by fans.]
[Therefore, everyone is willing to support you, pay you a little money, and give your "diamond" the "high price" it deserves, just like the diamonds in the market, whose value is given by everyone.]
[So… just like that, with the strange “reading comprehension” of a bunch of fans, you have completely established your nickname “Diamond”]
[At the same time, in order to make the other star in the "Double Stars" - Eden, have a corresponding name and pairing, fans also began to think about another name for Eden]
[Finally, after discussion among fans, Eden was given the nickname "Gold". As for the reason...]
[First of all, this is naturally how I describe Eden’s past. As a favored daughter born into a musical family, Eden’s life has been smooth sailing. Even the most serious setback was when she terminated her contract with the agency not long after graduation because of her own persistence. Even so, you helped her... Just like gold, from the time it was discovered to the present, it has been regarded as a "precious metal" by everyone. Although the price has fluctuated, it has basically remained at a "higher price"]
[Secondly, Eden's talent in various artistic fields is just like the versatility of gold. She can occupy a relatively important position in many fields. Her singing voice is highly recognizable, just like gold, attracting everyone's attention.]
[The most important thing after that is the opera that Eden loves and the classical music that she insists on... These are the wealth left by mankind through the sedimentation of history, the crystallization of civilization in the past. They are condensed and melted by Eden, and then in the most attractive way, they guide people's attention from the irritable "present" to the beauty of the "past"]
[This reproduction of the glory of past art is like dazzling gold, which makes people sigh and admire]
[Therefore, people are willing to pay money for "gold" and give support because Eden shows them the beauty of the "past" and once again shows them the most brilliant crystallization of human civilization]
[It’s just that in some private discussions among fans, the nickname “gold” has another meaning… Just like the dazzling light that gold does not conceal, and the “high price” that is not directly marked but is clear to everyone, Eden often inadvertently shows his intimacy with you, and the fans who set off flash bombs can’t stand it. Almost everyone knows the wonderful intimacy between you, but you just don’t “clearly mark the price”, which makes fans anxious and angry.]
(Fans: Why is it so hard to find a CP?!)
[Okay, the fun is over, it’s time to focus back on reality]
[After having a good time with Eden and playing a joke on your fans, you two started your own journeys again.]
[Hmm... In other words... It's Sakura's turn now.]
[However, Sakura did not make any bold moves. She just quietly and gently accompanied you and traveled with you. Occasionally, when you were playing, she would come close to you with a shy smile and play a slightly awkward tune on the guitar. Her cute appearance attracted the attention of others.]
[Although she cannot stand shoulder to shoulder with you at the moment, she can still follow you a little bit... She is also working hard in her own way]
[And you were very happy. When playing, you would occasionally accommodate her awkward tunes. It was just one song, and you would even give her some guidance... For a while, the public opinion of you on the Internet changed again. After all, judging from the current situation, it seemed that you were just traveling with your "student"]
[Although those strange comments are still there, they have been swept into a corner due to the accusations of other fans and the deliberate restrictions of Mr. Gunn, and will not cause much impact.]
[Of course, as Sakura's musical "teacher", I should also give her some rewards when she makes progress. This is only natural, isn't it? ]
[It's a pity that Sakura is still too shy. In the end, she just hopes that you can hug her... This is not okay~ In order to respond to Sakura's efforts and love for you, you can also be a little... bolder~]
[So, after you hugged her, you didn't listen to her and let her go. Instead, you just sat down with her in your arms, burying your face in her long light pink hair. The faint floral scent filled your nose, that was the smell of Sakura... You rested your chin on her shoulder and blew gently in her ear. Then you could immediately feel her whole body stiffen, and a shy blush instantly dyed the tip of her ear red. Finally, Sakura seemed to have given up struggling, and she shrank into your arms, burying her red face, and no longer looking at you.]
[If she hears your cheerful and happy laughter, Sakura will punch your chest in annoyance, not too hard or too light, to show her weak resistance.]
[But in the end, maybe because that action broke through Sakura's shyness bottom line and raised her shyness "threshold" a lot, she no longer disliked sitting in your arms, and occasionally she would take the initiative to come up to you, her face slightly red, and move her body. Without affecting your work, she would put her head on your thighs, and then just close her eyes and rest, enjoying the lap pillow.]
[Especially when Sakura learned from Eden that Eden had never done this, she became more and more enthusiastic about it, with a sense of pride.]
[Eden also took some actions... Especially when you are together, they are more keen to "target" you... For example, during the lunch break, they will let you lie down directly, and then Ying will lie on your thighs, and Eden will rest his head on your belly, and then they will chat with each other while you look like you have lost all hope in life, and gradually fall asleep.]
[Hiss... I always feel like they will team up to bully me in the future... Is this your illusion? ]
[Okay, although this sounds very enviable, in fact... it is also very enviable]
[So you don’t have any complaints about this, except that occasionally the thought of “should I be loyal to one person” pops up in your mind, but you quickly discard it... Liking and loving are always chaotic and clear, so just like and love as much as you can, and don’t care too much.]
[Therefore, a touch of light pink cherry blossoms is added to your journey. Compared with the twinkling stars, she may not be attractive enough, but... she is beautiful enough to make you prefer and like her.]
[You and Eden are still continuing your journey. After Sakura joined you, you smiled even more. The atmosphere is always pleasant and relaxed. Occasionally, there will be some ambiguous light pink and some shy crimson, which makes people smile knowingly.]
[With Sakura by your side, you witnessed more people’s stories with her, and wrote many new songs... You said you were writing new songs, and here they are~]
