An electric current passed through Lai Yang's palm and instantly spread to every inch of his skin.
He immediately took his hand back, his old face flushed, and asked, "Why is it you? When did you come back?"
After saying that, Lai Yang took a closer look at Tan Jing. Her off-white woolen coat made her fair skin look even more pure and clean. Her delicate figure was well-proportioned, her rosy little mouth was slightly raised, and she exuded a quiet temperament.
This caused the men queuing for ticket checking to keep casting various looks at her.
Because Yuan Shengda was also wearing a white coat today, Lai Yang was confused for a moment. Actually, there was nothing wrong with patting his shoulder, but Lai Yang didn't know why his heartbeat was so accelerated.
"I just came back this afternoon. I saw there was a queue here, so I came to help check the tickets." Tian Jing said with a smile, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Li Dian coughed with great tact: "Well, I still have to be busy inside, Laiyang, then you can check the tickets for me first. Also, thank you, President Tian."
After Li Dian winked at Lai Yang, he quickly went back to the theater.
His departure made Lai Yang even more nervous, his hands were sweating as he checked the tickets. After this wave of audiences finally entered the venue, a quiet and gentle voice was heard.
"Why are you alienated from me after not seeing each other for a while?"
"ah?"
Lai Yang's heart trembled as he looked at Tian Jing's overly beautiful face.
"No, no, I just... I didn't expect you to condescend to check the tickets. This makes me feel a little bit fake..."
Looking at Lai Yang's serious expression, Tian Jing's pretty face smiled again. When she smiled, Lai Yang's old face turned even redder.
Tian Jing reached out and tucked a few strands of hair behind her ears, and asked about the recent theater situation. Lai Yang told her the truth, of course, adding some exaggeration.
After listening, Tian Jing nodded slightly, but did not mention the renewal of the lease. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "Your crystal ball is out of power. I bought batteries online. After the performance, can you help me replace it?"
Lai Yang agreed without thinking, but after he said it, he suddenly reacted and grinned.
"Then if I help you change it, do you owe me another favor? Hehe."
"You don't owe me anything. I checked your tickets for you. Are we even now?" Tian Jing said calmly.
"Ah? No way! You have already calculated this in advance?"
The quiet and beautiful red lips raised an intoxicating arc: "Why? If you don't want to, forget it."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. Lai Yang hurriedly grabbed her
She shouted with her arms: "Oh, I agree, I agree~ Why are you so anxious?"
As they were pulling, Yuan Shengda walked out of the theater with a pair of long legs: "Lai Duidui, the show is about to start and you are still..."
Lai Yang froze for half a second, then left and let go of his hand. Yuan Shengda glanced at the two of them and forced a smile at Tian Jing.
"Oh, President Tian is here? I was wondering what he was doing outside."
Her quiet, fair face also turned slightly red, and she greeted Yuan Shengda with a smile.
Tian Jing also watched the whole performance. She had heard all the old jokes by Lai Yang, but the new jokes by Yun Lu and Song Wen made her applaud and laugh frequently, covering her mouth.
Lai Yang saw all of this clearly backstage, and after the performance, Tian Jing came and took a photo with the two of them.
Lai Yang joked, "This hurts my heart. He has never taken a photo with me."
Tian Jing chuckled and raised her pretty face: "If what you say is not funny, who would want to take a photo with you."
"If you say that, I won't go with you later."
Lai Yang blurted out these words, but the people behind the scenes heard them in a different way.
Especially Yunlu, she didn’t know Tianjing either, but based on her feeling alone, she actually called Tianjing "sister-in-law".
Li Dian and Yuan Shengda were stunned for a moment, but no one said anything. After Tian Jing's pretty face turned pink, she quickly explained that she and Lai Yang were just friends.
Yunlu quickly covered his mouth and apologized. Yuan Shengda also glanced at Song Wen: "You keep a close eye on your wife all day, how can you open your mouth and acknowledge her as your sister-in-law?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang again. After Yuan Shengda glanced at the phone, his face turned a little cold. After saying goodbye to everyone, he picked up his bag and went out.
…
After half a month's absence, Lai Yang walked side by side with Tian Jing on the street again.
The buildings in the distance soared into the clouds, and colorful neon lights lit up at night, adding a touch of dreaminess to this magical city. The wind was getting colder and colder. Tian Jing put her hands in her pockets and wrapped her coat tightly.
Lai Yang really enjoyed this kind of stroll. He felt relaxed and could occasionally smell the fragrance of Tian Jing. Walking with such a beautiful woman was also a highlight of his life.
"What's that floral scent on you?" Lai Yang asked, breaking the silence.
After Tian Jing glanced at him slightly, she replied in a pleasant voice, "The fragrance of white magnolia."
"Oh~ Magnolia is the city flower of Shanghai. You are quite ambitious, right? Haha, you want to be the city flower?" Lai Yang smiled and turned to look at her.
Tian Jing glanced at Lai Yang with her pretty eyes and said nothing. However, her stomach growled at this moment. Lai Yang was stunned and looked at her and asked if she had eaten.
"Well, I just got back this afternoon. Let's order some takeout later."
"Hey, how about takeout? Do you have any vegetables at home? I'll go back and make some for you." It's not that Lai Yang wants to be attentive, but the lease period is about to expire and he has to find an opportunity.
Tian Jing probably didn't expect Lai Yang could cook, and she looked at him in astonishment with her beautiful eyes.
When buying groceries downstairs in her community, Lai Yang also bought a few cans of beer.
After taking the battery package, Lai Yang came to Tian Jing's house. After entering the door, he went straight to the kitchen to cook, while Tian Jing changed into a long silk nightgown, although it was a little more conservative than last time.
But when serving the dishes, Lai Yang could still see a large area of her snow-white legs through her crossed steps.
After sitting at the table, Tian tasted the mushroom fried pork slices made by Lai Yang. After chewing for a while, her pretty face gradually became happy: "I didn't expect that your cooking skills are not bad."
"That's right. Over the years, everyone who has eaten my food has praised it."
"Really? Has anyone else eaten it?"
He quickly took a big sip of wine and said with a red face, "There are not many people, just Yuan Shengda and Gu Qian."
As soon as the name came out, Lai Yang's brain froze for a few seconds. She looked at him with her beautiful eyes and smiled slightly with her red lips: "Gu Qian is your ex-girlfriend, right? What? Do you miss her?"
Seeing Lai Yang was silent, Tian Jing and softly said, "Can you tell me why you broke up?"
Looking at her spring-like eyes, Lai Yang picked up the beer and drank it all in one breath. After a moment of silence, he told Gu Qian about his affair, including her affair with the Porsche driver...
"Do you think I'm a coward?" Lai Yang felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife when he thought about Gu Qian breaking up with him for money.
“It’s quite pathetic.”
“Hey, you…” I thought Tian Jing would comfort me, but she said this instead.
Tian Jing put down her chopsticks, gently wiped her red lips with paper, her eyes full of affection.
"The past cannot be retrieved. Now that people are gone, you are drinking alone and regretting. Isn't that cowardly? You should start a new life, live your life well, run the theater well, and cherish the people around you."
"The person in front of me? Cherish you?" Lai Yang was a little drunk and asked with a smile.
"If it were me, how would you want to cherish me?"
Wow~
Did I drink too much? Or did I drink too much
