Chapter 102 – Upon the Moon and Willow Shoots
By the time Duan Shu Tong hung up the phone, Xi Duan had already picked out a basketball. He asked the young man gently, “What’s wrong?”
It’s not that he wanted to pry into Duan Shu Tong’s private business, but he just heard the young man talking about him, so he couldn’t help asking.
If it was something about himself and the young man, then he must be prudent.
Duan Shut Tong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He opened up Weibo on his phone to show Xi Duan, “There’s a rumor right now that you want to marry my sister, so my sister asked me what happened.”
Xi Duan: “…” These people were really imaginative.
But it must be said that the netizens imaginative abilities were simply in defiance of the natural order. With just one specious sentence they were able to come up with the plot of an entire TV drama.

Things like how there would be family drama after the marriage of two powerful families… their speculations were vivid and thoroughly detailed.
It’s just that no one’s thoughts swung the other way. [The gay way.]
Xi Duan paused for a moment. Then he discussed with Duan Shu Tong in a serious manner: “Should we make a statement to clarify the situation?”
Before, he got misunderstood because of the matter with Pei Ruo Wei. Now that he was actively on the pursuit he did not want to be implicated with anyone that was not Duan Shu Tong.
Duan Shu Tong shook his head, “Xu Ya Ze’s words are ambiguous, and you shouldn’t take the netizens’ jokes to heart, so you don’t need to make a special statement or anything.”
After the netizens talk for a while and have their fun, the popularity of the topic would die down. Having the Xi family come forward personally to explain felt a bit like killing a chicken with a butcher’s knife. It was like using a sledgehammer on a nut. Aquila non capit muscas.
Xi Duan was very obedient and he didn’t say anything else on the topic.
The two went back together. Although they never even held hands, their hearts were full of sweetness. When they said goodbye, Xi Duan stared at him and summoned the courage to say, “I…”
Duan Shu Tong stopped him with a smile, “We can talk about it after the holiday, okay?”
Xi Duan nodded quickly, “I’ll listen to you.”
He looked a bit silly, but it was a cute kind of silly.
After returning home, Duan Shu Tong took out the gift he brought back.
He specially made an anti-aging skin care product for Mrs. Dong, who was pleasantly surprised when she accepted it. The gift that he gave his father was a hair care product, also specially made by him. It was designed to treat hair loss. After all, Duan Sheng Ye’s hair was starting to get a bit sparse around the top. The gift he prepared for Duan Si Fu was no exception, and was very comprehensive and effective.

After the family had a harmonious and happy dinner together, Mrs. Dong suddenly asked, “Tong Tong, last time you told me to introduce a few ladies to Xi Duan, but you didn’t tell me what happened afterwards.”
Duan Shu Tong: “…” Can he delete this memory?
Looking at his mother’s gossipy expression, Duan Shu Tong pretended to be regretful and shook his head: “He didn’t get together with any of them.”
Dong Han Yue brightened up at his answer. She said mysteriously, “That’s good. Today, I heard rumors about Xiao Fu* and Xi Duan again. Although the rumors are false, I don’t think it is impossible. Xiao Fu, what do you think?”
[*T/N: Xiao Fu is a nickname for Duan Si Fu. Xiao means “little.”]
Duan Sheng Ye also nodded in agreement. He felt like it wasn’t a bad possibility.
He never entertained the thought before, because Duan Si Fu had such a strong personality, and Xi Duan’s aura was so cold. Their ages were about the same, but their auras were really different from each other, so subconsciously no one ever thought to put the two together as a pair.
But now, inexplicably, they felt that it was a good match.
Duan Si Fu said resolutely: “I will not consider marriage before the age of thirty.”
Dong Han Yue had no choice but to ask Duan Shu Tong: “You have been with Xi Duan for so long now. I saw that photo. The two of you seemed to be chatting quite happily. What do you think about him as a person?”
“Of course, he’s a good person.” Duan Shu Tong did not hesitate.
Dong Han Yue then asked, “Then do you think he matches well with your sister?”
Duan Shu Tong: “…” Excuse him, but he thought that he matched with Xi Duan quite well.
But he couldn’t say that right now. If he said it out loud, then this holiday was going to be ruined. Instead, he said with a deadpan face: “Xi Duan has no plans to get married for the time being. I’ll tell you when he changes his mind.”

If such a day were to come, it was likely that the entire Duan family would have to enter a tremendous battle.
After they finished gossiping, Duan Sheng Ye went to the study and took out a document. Then he handed it to Duan Shu Tong in front of Dong Han Yue and Duan Si Fu.
He said sincerely and earnestly: “The reason I called you back was one, for a family reunion, and two, for this. I have already discussed it with your mother and your sister. Since you have talent in pharmaceuticals, why don’t we completely hand the Spring and Autumn Hall over to you. It will become your business in the future. You will have to be more dedicated to it.”
