"I bought it on Taobao. Is that childish?" she said.
Only then did Tang Wei confirm that there was a real, living person standing in front of him, and it was not an illusion.
"… Fortunately, it's your style." After he finished speaking, he looked at her and added, "Sorry, I just thought it was Yu Sheng."
Shang Shiyu held an umbrella for him and handed him the water he had just bought, "Drink it."
Tang Wei saw that her cheeks were sunburned and her forehead was covered with sweat. He couldn't bear it, so he unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to her, "You drink it, Yu Sheng will bring me some water."
Such a small action made Shang Shiyu's heart seem to break.
He is still as considerate and caring as before. But is he really such a gentleman to everyone
Feeling her sad eyes, Tang Wei seemed to realize that she was upset by his actions just now, so he narrowed his eyes, put the bottle cap back on, and put it aside. He could not help himself towards her.
"Are you all right?" she asked.
"Yeah. The injury is not serious." Although he said it was not serious, he was actually in the hospital for a week on an IV drip because of the infection. Today, I talked to Professor Wang a lot and finally let him out to get some fresh air.
After staying in the dull hospital for a long time, he felt that even sitting outside in such a scorching sun was a kind of enjoyment.
"Can I take a look?" She would feel relieved only after seeing it for real. After all, his face was very pale. She always felt that he was not in a good condition.
"How do you see it? With so many people here, should I lift up my clothes to show you?" He smiled and said in a joking tone.
Shang Shiyu was embarrassed for a moment, his ears turned red, "Then I can touch it."
Before Tang Wei could stop her, she had already bent over and put her hand on his back. Tang Wei stiffened. Her fingers were soft and hot, and even through the shirt, he could feel the magic that made him tremble.
Her hands, full of tenderness, moved down from his shoulder blades inch by inch. She was greedy for such closeness, greedily feeling this familiar yet somewhat strange touch, and because she was too excited, her fingertips were trembling.
The more she touched him, the more sad she felt. Circles of sadness expanded in her heart. She murmured bitterly, "You've lost a lot of weight."
"Fourth Master."
Yu Sheng's voice suddenly came. Tang Wei seemed to wake up from a dream, turned around, and grabbed her hand that was touching her randomly.
Shang Shiyu was stunned and looked at him with loss and discomfort.
"I should go." He concealed his grief, not allowing the reluctance to grow wildly in his heart. Now, he was struggling in hell, living a dark life. He had no right to linger on anyone, and even less to let anyone linger on him.
"Are you leaving?" she asked hesitantly, feeling very reluctant.
"Um."
"Where are you going?" She asked unconsciously, simply wanting to say a few more words to him. That was all.
"go home."
"Where do you live?"
Tang Wei didn't answer. When he stood up, he picked up the bottle of mineral water on the ground and handed it back to her, "You should go back too. The temperature is too high and it's not suitable for outdoor activities."
After a pause, he added: "Goodbye."
After saying that, he brushed past her and walked away. Yu Sheng followed him.
Shang Shiyu held the water and followed him stubbornly, "Tang Wei, can you give me a contact method? Your phone number or your email will do."
Silence. Then, without even turning his head, he said, "That's not necessary."
No need.
After breaking up, there is no need for couples to even be friends.
She stood there holding an umbrella. Even though the sun was scorching, she felt cool all over.
So cold…
———
Shang Shiyu kept himself busy again. Work always had a paralyzing effect, which was a good thing.
Lan Xiao had just returned to China and drove to the downstairs of the TV station to wait for her. When he saw her, he was frightened by her dark circles.
"Shang Shiyu, during the time I was away, have you been recklessly building yourself up?"
She yawned and lazily slid into the passenger seat. Lan Xiao helplessly reminded, "Seat belt."
"Oh." She fastened her seat belt, closed her eyes and went to sleep.
"Where do you want to eat?" Lan Xiao asked her. In a blink of an eye, he saw the dark circles under her eyes and felt a little sorry for her. "How about I take you to my place to sleep first, and then we can go out for a midnight snack in the evening."
Shi Yu just rolled his eyes at him.
Lan Xiao shrugged, "Just ignore what I said. Your kindness is taken for granted."
"Just eat whatever you want. It's you who pays the bill, so you decide."
Lan Xiao hummed, glancing at her from time to time, "I say, why do you dress like this all day? You're 23 years old, but you still act like a child."
She glanced at her T-shirt and jeans without caring, "Then how can I not look like a child?"
"Well... like Yun Ling." Lan Xiao answered her seriously, "A woman is one who is meticulous and delicate every day."
Shang Shiyu was silent for a while. She opened her eyes and looked out the window, looking at the scenery outside. She asked faintly, "Do all you men like her?"
"Yeah! Sexy and beautiful, who wouldn't like it?"
She pulled her lips forcefully and sighed, "Yeah, who doesn't like it?"
"What? Are you jealous?" Lan Xiao glanced at her.
She sighed, raised her head and swallowed the tightness in her eyes, "Yeah, I'm so envious!"
It seemed like a joke, but she said it more seriously than ever. She was more than envious, she was jealous. When she thought that she and Tang Wei were a couple, they might hug, kiss, and do things that she and Tang Wei had not done yet, she was jealous to the point of going crazy.
Lan Xiao had no idea that she had such thoughts. He just thought she was joking and laughed, "Actually, I can also like you reluctantly. If you dress up, ten souls will not be your match."
She didn't listen to such flattery, "Thank you for your respect, Master Lan."
"Tsk~ I really thought about bringing you to our company as a signed artist."
"I don't want to be dominated by you."
Lan Xiao laughed so hard that he fell over. "You really think highly of yourself. Look at you now. You don't wear makeup, you don't take care of your hair, and you dress so casually. If you didn't have a good foundation, I wouldn't even bother to be friends with you. To be honest, you really make me worried. What kind of man will think highly of you in the future?"
"What does it matter? I don't plan to find a boyfriend anyway."
"What? Do you still want to find a girlfriend?"
"I want to be a nun, okay?"
"A good girl, talking nonsense."
Lan Xiao drove very steadily, but Shi Yu was so sleep-deprived that he fell asleep in the passenger seat after a while.
When the car stopped at the entrance of a restaurant, Lan Xiao woke her up: "Lazy pig, you are drooling in your sleep."
