Chapter 85 - Feng Ru (32) (1/2)
None of them knew, while the year of courtship after the breakup was real, the two getting back together was only in Tang Lan's imagination, a ploy to show off. And if chance would be given, to make the one she truly loved drowning in jealousy.
Tao Ping pouted. ”You're so lucky You're not only successful in your hidden career, you also have a colorful love life.”
Laughingly, Tang Lan said, ”Don't worry, Sis Ping. I believe in fate and that everyone has a fated person meant for him or her. I'm sure yours will arrive at the most ideal moment and place. Given our current age now, it's just a matter of time. Believe me. The wait will be worth it once 'he' arrives in your life.”
'Sure. Easy for you to say, b*tch! Why don't you hand over my husband He Chen to me?' The fat woman resentfully thought to herself.
”What a sweet mouth you have there. I bet this is how your writing won you so many readers and awards.” Jiang Rou put down her phone and giggled.
The female lead's cousin suddenly tilted her head, looking at the entrance's direction. ”I think I saw a person who looks like He Chen entering.”
Tang Lan's heart jumped, head automatically swinging to the right. He Chen was indeed there, walking towards them.
For a moment, Tang Lan forgot about her heart hurting from being broken into pieces by Gu Feng's indifference earlier. In her eyes, there was only the singer's calm and unreadable face glittering a bit with silver as light fell upon his flawless skin. His walking posture was so unlike what she could recall in mind.
When did he become so elegant in both movements and look? Why does he seemed like an old rich's heir instead of some poor villagers' son?
'Is he really He Chen?'
”He Chen!!! It's Pesticide's He Chen!” The fat girl's fists pounding the table in extreme excitement woke her up from her stupor.
'I must have him coordinate with me.' She stood up and strode forward to intercept him, her eyes gleaming with alarm and determination. Behind her, the girls were shrieking, 'Aaahh, He Chen's really with Little Lan. Whyyyyyyyyyyy?! I can't take it anymore! I wanna die!' The nervous Tang Lan ignored those loud and dramatic voices.
”You're here...” Her voice trailed off weakly after receiving a glare from him. Actually, she didn't know if it was only her imagination, but she felt like there was also another person glaring daggers at her from an unknown corner.
Jiang Li looked behind Tang Lan and noticed three people watching them. His eyes briefly scanned the place to search his favorite toys before his lips curled into a captivating smile. A captivating smile with subtle hint of sarcasm and danger.
”Just to make me come here, you told my mom to request this to me and make her believe we have gotten back together?”
'Wanting to use me so desperately, eh?'
Jiang Li made up his mind to teach this damnable female lead a lesson real good tonight. While it was easy for him to just deny Mother He's request given that he was not truly his mother, it didn't sit well with him that Tang Lan bothered his family just for this freakin' reason. Just who does she think she was?
Tang Lan ignored his glare and his question. She approached him so she could whisper, ”He Chen, just do me a favor and I'll let you be my boyfriend again.”
She said this in a hurry, but since there was a smile on her face, those who saw them so close like this squealed from either excitement or jealousy. Two beautiful people being in such an intimate distance. Of course, they did not only elicit gazes from Tang Lan's table.
He Chen was a celebrity.
Many from the onlookers recognized him but hesitated to approach since the man was seemingly having a private conversation with a woman. They made themselves content of watching his literally shining face from the distance. Not few thought, it was for the best since if even his presence there could make girls faint, what more if he allowed them to get close and have his autograph?
Amidst everyone's curious and envious glances, Tang Lan maintained her smile even though deep inside she disliked not seeing any other reaction from him. She hated being made nervous like this before a crowd.
Wasn't he supposed to jump in joy right now for being given another chance?
He didn't reply. Instead he only smiled politely at her companions, rendering each of them furiously blushing.
