Cut~
Qiu Qiu also said that he was good to her! He actually broke his promise!
She had clearly said that day that she would make time to attend the party even if she was not free. What happened? She had already arranged the social events. She had always treated her like a child, so she must have been coaxing her by saying those words!
Ye Lan muttered, full of resentment.
"Does this ham have a grudge against you?"
Ye Yan's voice suddenly pulled Ye Lan back to his senses. He looked down and saw that the ham on the plate had been cut into small pieces by her, which made him lose his appetite even more.
"I won't eat it anymore."
"You have to drink the milk even if you don't eat it."
"I can't drink it."
"You have to drink it even if you can't." Ye Yan brought the milk in front of her, "Don't get upset with me over such a small matter. At worst, I can bring you a gift when I come back."
Ye Lan shook his head, "I'm not quarreling with you."
"Stop it. Can't I see what you're thinking?"
"…" Really not! Brother, you are really being sentimental! She is clearly having a quarrel with Tang Jifeng!
Ye Lan looked at Ye Yan's persistence, and finally, she had to drink the milk obediently, and then she carried her schoolbag to school. She was very depressed all the way, and she didn't even know what was wrong with her. Was she upset because she was stood up? But, it was obvious that Ye Yan had stood her up too.
Well, probably because Tang Jifeng made such a solemn promise that day.
Moreover, all the girls in the class knew he was coming and were very excited! Now, it was all in vain!

"What are you doing? You've been so listless all day. The party is almost here, so cheer up." Qiu Qiu was directing people to set up the venue, and he was talking to Ye Lan, who was sitting in a corner of the stage playing the piano. Then, he clicked his tongue a few times, "Listen to your piano playing, is it up to par? It's an impassioned piece, but you made it sound so sad."
"It doesn't matter. Anyway... no one wants to watch my show tonight."
"What do you mean no one wants to see it? All the little boys in our school are rushing to see it in droves! You are my beloved, please don't embarrass me."
“No one from my family will come.”
"Your brother isn't coming?"
"Not coming."
"That Tang Jifeng won't come either."
"… Um."
Qiu Qiu looked at her even more depressed face, as if he knew everything, and smiled, "I was wondering why you were so abnormal today. So that's it. I say, Lanlan baby, if you want him to come over so much, why don't you just give him a call and ask him to come over?"
Ye Lan really wanted to call.
But, in the end, he shook his head again, "Forget it, I've already told him before, if he's sincere, why would I have to mention it again and again? But if he doesn't come tonight, then... then I won't talk to him anymore in the future!"
Ye Lan seemed to be making a threatening statement. When he said the last sentence, he slammed the keyboard and ended the last syllable heavily.
Um!
Ignore him absolutely! Unless he sincerely apologizes to me!
———
Although Ye Yan had said that he would not come, when the party really started, Ye Lan couldn't help but look out and look at the entrance of the venue.
Many parents came and it was quite lively.
However, he never showed up. Ye Lan knew that he had not missed him, because Tang Jifeng did not show up until the lights in the venue were turned off.
I had been holding on to a glimmer of hope, but now I am completely disappointed.
For the first time, she realized that disappointment could make people so miserable.
"Lanlan, why can't I see your brother? Didn't you say you would come?" Ye Lan had just sat down with his classmates when someone came over and asked.
"That's right. I just looked outside for a long time, but didn't see anyone."
"Didn't you come?"
Ye Lan ignored them.
Qiu Qiu pushed those people away and said, "That's enough, one by one, stop talking about things that are not related to the topic. Just focus on watching the show!"
Ye Lan pulled his attention to the show on the stage. After all, it was sponsored by him, and Qiu Qiu and the others were responsible for setting up the stage, so he had to take a closer look. He finally enjoyed the skit on the stage, and at this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang.
She took it out and looked at it. The name flashing on the screen made her frown.
At this moment, the person who called was Tang Jifeng.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and answer it! Aren't you waiting for him?" Qiu Qiu nudged her elbow.
Just answer it!
Ye Lan picked up the phone and put it to his ear. He leaned down and lowered his voice, "It's not convenient for me to answer your call now. If you have anything, please call me later."
Although he said that, he didn't actually hang up the phone.
Moreover, every word in her tone expressed: I am very unhappy and need someone to comfort me!
"Are you planning to cross the river and then destroy the bridge?" Tang Jifeng's voice was also very low.
"What do you mean by crossing the river and destroying the bridge?"
"We've got the money, and the ball's all ready to go, but now this is your attitude towards useless sponsors like you?"
"That's better than breaking your promise."
"Breaking promises? Who?"
"I'm very angry now, really angry, and I don't want to talk to you. I'm going to hang up." Ye Lan felt that this person was asking questions he knew the answer to and pretending not to know.
"I spent money and hurried over to come here after finishing my evening social activities, but I was treated like this. So, shouldn't I be the one who doesn't want to talk to you?"
"Then don't tell me... No, what did you just say?" Ye Lan reacted belatedly.
Before Tang Jifeng could say anything, her elbow was pulled hard by someone.
An excited voice came over, "Lanlan, is that your brother? Look!"
Ye Lan looked in the direction the other person pointed. As expected, there was a man standing against the wall next to their row. In the entire venue, only the lights on the stage were flickering. He stood there, and his shadowy figure alone was also very eye-catching.
The day's depression instantly disappeared at this moment. Ye Lan hung up the phone happily without thinking, immediately stood up, walked through the crowd, and walked quickly towards the figure.
"Slow down!" After Tang Jifeng hung up the phone, he watched her walk through the crowd and walk towards him quickly, fearing that she would be tripped by someone else's legs. After she had already passed by, he reached out to catch her from a distance.
She happily placed her hand in his palm, and as soon as she came out, she threw herself on him.
Tang Jifeng smiled broadly, his face full of charm.
Since she is so enthusiastic, I will not settle the matter with her for being ignored just now.
"The first row looks like it's full." Tang Jifeng's eyes swept over and then back to her, raising an eyebrow, "No seat left for me?"
“… I didn’t keep any.” She confessed honestly.
"So, you are the one who broke your promise." Tang Jifeng tapped her small nose. Ye Lan made a light "hmm" sound, grabbed his hand and held it in his palm. He did not break free. The light and shadows swayed, and his eyes fell on her illuminated little face. He was distracted for a moment, "You put on makeup?"
