Chapter 277 - Whose Pleasure? (1/2)
Silence took over.
Pffft! Two seconds later, Xie Wanwan didn’t manage to swallow a mouthful of crayfish meat and almost spurted it out.
“Tang Yuanchu, can’t you be more creative?”
Well, this question was indeed not much fun.
Throughout Xie Wanwan’s celebrity career, such a question was all too common.
She lifted her eyebrows. “You want to hear the politically correct version or my actual answer?”
Tang Yuanchu’s stiff nerves began to slowly relax. “Both are fine.”
( Boxno vel. co m ) His meaning was that she could choose between the two she mentioned. But Xie Wanwan took a glance at him and thought he wanted her to say both answers.
“If it’s official, I would say that will depend on fate. When fate comes, that person will be what I’ve been looking for and he’s just the way I like him.”
“…” Indeed, that was a politically correct reply catered for the public.
Everyone could not resist laughing.
Tang Yuanchu did not laugh. “What about your actual answer?”
Xie Wanwan’s smile on her face slowly faded away. She rubbed her face which was dyed red by the alcohol.
“To tell the truth, I feel that I will not like anyone again!”
The word “again” told of an endless pain that had been there since long ago…
…
The supper treat ended.
Xiang Wan sent Xie Wanwan till the entrance.
“Are you alright?”
That night, Xie Wanwan was the one who drank the most amount of beer.
Xiang Wan was quite worried about her, but the latter waved her hands as though there was nothing to be worried about.
“I’m alright, don’t worry!”
“Well… okay then!” Xiang Wan held the door and took a look at Tang Yuanchu before talking to Xie Wanwan. “I’ll be at the hotel all day tomorrow. If you’re bored, you can come and chit chat with me!”
“No problem!” Although Xie Wanwan drank a lot, she was still quite sober. “See ya tomorrow!”
“See ya~”
Quan Shaoteng just stayed next door. He was not sensitive when it comes to relationships. Thus, both him and Salimu did not detect the subtle ambiguous atmosphere. They greeted everyone goodnight and went back to their rooms to rest.
Bai Muchuan’s team were all located on the same floor. Tang Yuanchu was no exception.
As for Xie Wanwan, her room was upstairs.
Tang Yuanchu looked at Xie Wanwan. “Let me send you up to your room.”
“It’s okay!” Xie Wanwan waved her hand. “Do I look like I’m drunk?”
“You don’t look drunk,” Tang Yuanchu said seriously, “but I know you’re drunk.”
“Tch!” Xie Wanwan glared at him. “Why am I drunk?”
Tang Yuanchu stayed quiet for a while. “Let’s go!”
Hmph! Xie Wanwan walked two steps and turn back for a glare. “I just asked you a question.”
Tang Yuanchu was helpless against her and puffed a sigh. “If you’re not drunk, you wouldn’t have used that word ‘again’!”
The word ‘again’ revealed not only her feelings about Bai Muchuan in the past, but it could also make the parties involved feel awkward.
If Xie Wanwan was not drunk, she would definitely not use that word. She would just be behaving the way like when she just arrived with the bags of food…
“Who gives you the right to say that of me? What do you know?”
Xie Wanwan’s eyes went red. She seemed a little embarrassed as well as fuming in anger as she pointed a finger at him. It was as though she was angry as her secret was being found out, although it was not a secret to Tang Yuanchu at all.
“You don’t understand me at all. You don’t! Why are you saying all these nonsense… Who do you think you are?”
“…”
Tang Yuanchu did not know how to answer her as he faced her indignant eyes.
He gave a bitter laugh. “I know.”
He muttered after pausing for a moment, “You can take me as a Deity.”
“A Deity who knows everything? Hurhur! Tang Yuanchu, you’re too bold… By posing as a Deity, what punishment do you think you deserve?”
“…”
Tang Yuanchu was speechless and amused at the same time.
If he took it that she was drunk, yet she knew who he was…
If he took it that she was not drunk, yet those words she said were incoherent….
Hence, Tang Yuanchu could not just let her go back to her room alone.
Even though Xie Wanwan was not willing that she shouted and kicked him, he still insisted to do that. He pulled her inside the elevator and sent her right to her doorstep.
“Where’s your room card?” The journey up to her room was really tiring for Tang Yuanchu that he was gasping for breath.
Xie Wanwan paused for a while and searched her bag.
After a brief search, she found nothing and then she searched again but still to no avail.
She squatted down and poured all of the contents inside her bag onto the floor outside her room.
Tang Yuanchu: “…”
This woman! If someone were to take a picture of how she was behaving like an idiot, she was definitely going to make headlines.
Tang Yuanchu squatted down and helped to support her by taking an arm while the other hand helped to pick up her stuff.
Her wallet was open. There was a laminated photograph inside it that caught his eye.
Tang Yuanchu pondered for a while and picked up the wallet.
That was a picture of a family of three. Inside the photo, the little girl looked adorable and was very young. From the facial features, it was not easy to tell if it was Xie Wanwan or not… But judging from the way she treasured the photo, Tang Yuanchu was quite certain that the little girl was Xie Wanwan.
“What are you doing?” Seeing the picture, Xie Wanwan was as though turned into a porcupine. She was agitated.
“Return it to me!” She stared angrily at Tang Yuanchu.
“…”
He did not snatch it from her in the first place.
Tang Yuanchu handed her the wallet and picked up everything on the floor into her bag. He found the room card and passed it to her as well.
“Go on, get in and rest early!”
He stood where he was and did not turn to leave.
He wanted to see her get inside her room before he left.
However, Xie Wanwan was as though like a fool, looking at him with her red and watery eyes. She did not seem to want to enter her room.
Tang Yuanchu pursed his lips. “What’s up?”
Xie Wanwan suddenly gave him a hug.
“Thank you, Little Tang!”
