1280 I Want to Make You Stay 158 (1/2)
”It's your turn to answer the question that I asked Yan Ge just now. Erlan, what do you like about Yan Ge?”
Fang Erlan instinctively looked at Xiao Chenyang, who was standing in a dim corner. Thus, she could not see his appearance clearly.
Everyone stared at Fang Erlan while she looked away. She then answered while smiling, ”I guess Yan Ge's handsome good looks are every girl's weakness. When I first joined the cast, I didn't know him at all yet and I was afraid that he'd have a bad impression of me because of what happened in the hotel. Hence, I was really cautious at the start and all I wanted to do was to perform well during acting. Actually, his bark is worse than his bite and he's not as aloof as he seems. After getting to know him for a long time, I realized that he can be rather meticulous too. He's hard-working and has received a lot of accolades for his superb acting skills and effort. He's kind to the people around him too. I guess that's what I respect and admire most about him.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to look at Yan Ge, who was staring at her too. They held each other's gazes while the audience began to cheer and coerce them, ”Kiss! Kiss!”
Fang Erlan turned red immediately as the cheering continued.
Feeling extremely awkward, she wished that the ground would swallow her up.
The moment Yan Ge cupped her face in his hands and kissed her on the forehead quickly, she froze in shock and gripped the microphone tightly in her trembling hands. She stared at Yan Ge blankly, at a complete loss for words.
The crowd burst into a fanfare. Fang Erlan took a look at the spot where Xiao Chenyang was standing just now, only to discover that he was no longer there.
Is he angry?
Fang Erlan held her own hand and forced a stiff smile, which everyone had mistaken to be a bashful one.
After the interview ended, they proceeded to get changed and got ready to play some games.
The filming of the program lasted for more than three hours, during two of which Xiao Chenyang was missing. Fang Erlan thought to herself that he must be waiting for her inside the nanny van.
Hence, she hurriedly scurried toward Xiao Yue, who was backstage, and asked, ”Where's Chenyang?”
”Cousin said that he had something to attend to and had already left.”
”What's there for him to attend to? He said that he wouldn't leave my side, not even for a minute. Where could he have gone to? Oh no,” Fang Erlan spluttered, thinking that he was really upset.
Xiao Yue found her reaction to be too over-the-top. She said, ”Sis Erlan, calm down. Cousin will be back soon.”
”Give me the phone, I'm going to call him.”
Xiao Yue handed her the mobile phone, after which Fang Erlan immediately called Xiao Chenyang.
”Where are you?”
”Outside.”
”Come back in.”
Upon hearing how eager and anxious she sounded, he smirked and said, ”Stay backstage with Xiao Yue. I'll be back soon.”
”Okay,” Fang Erlan ended the call, feeling much more relieved than before.
Just like Xiao Chenyang said, he returned soon after she got changed with a paper bag in his hands.
”There you go.”
”What's this?” Fang Erlan took a look at the contents of the bag, only to discover that it was a bag of snacks. ”Did you go out to buy this?” she asked.
”Yes. Didn't you say that you were craving for this yesterday? It's freshly made so I had to wait a while.”
Fang Erlan took out two pieces of the delicacy and handed them to Xiao Yue before taking another one for herself. After taking a bite, she said to him softly, ”I thought you had gotten angry.”
Instead of replying to her statement, he said, ”Let's get inside the car.”
”Um… the emcee told me just now that they've already made reservations at a restaurant nearby and wanted us to eat together…”
”Alright, you guys go ahead. I'll just eat somewhere else with Xiao Yue and the chauffeur.”
Fang Erlan nodded and smiled at him.
