Yunlu and Song Wen leaned their heads against each other, staring at the same mobile phone and flipping through it.
This scene really gave Lai Yang a lot of dog food.
He looked away, picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, then carefully looked at the small ornaments in the room.
In the same neighborhood, the one in Laiyang can only be called a house, but this one... feels like home.
At this moment, he remembered what his second father said on the Bund. Although his parents didn't say it, they must be very anxious in their hearts.
Lai Yang could feel the urgency of this through his last phone call with his mother.
He really should think carefully about his relationship issues.
If tranquility can give me hope, I will be willing to wait no matter how difficult the process is.
But if she really never intended to be with me, then I should completely calm down and stop clinging to her fearlessly.
Lai Yang wants to get the answer tomorrow.
He sighed, turned around, patted Song Wen on the shoulder, and spoke to the two of them.
"It's not a wasted trip to have a meal with you two and a plate of beef tonight. Don't look for me anymore. I will pay attention to my work and the theater with all my heart. Go to bed early."
After saying this, Lai Yang didn't give them a chance to say more, just waved goodbye and left.
…
The next day, the sky was exceptionally clear, and Shanghai had a rare blue sky. The white clouds looked like goose feathers, floating in the blue sea-like sky.
This kind of good weather also brings the temperature up by several degrees.
The wind that blew since early morning brought a hint of heat. Lai Yang dressed up carefully, and at noon he even followed Aru's example and found a hair salon to get a haircut.
After finishing, he asked the hairdresser to spray some perfume on him before taking a bus to Pudong District.
After arriving at the Disney ticket office, Lai Yang exchanged his ticket and found a shady place to wait. It was a little after three o'clock.
He could actually come at four o'clock, but he was afraid that Tian Jing would come earlier, so he would rather come an extra hour so that she would be able to see him as soon as she showed up.
Not long after he sat down, Hu Zi suddenly called and asked Lai Yang whether he wanted his team to organize a small performance in the cinema to test the waters as the summer vacation was coming soon.
These words woke Lai Yang up, and he clenched his phone.
"Oh, man, you are really reliable. You actually wanted to get ahead of me this time."
"Hehe, you must
Tsk~ If you can’t handle school affairs well, you have to show your presence somewhere else.”
"Okay, okay, it's still necessary to test the waters. Let's see if the movie theater's ticket sales model is feasible, so that we can have a better idea... But I'm afraid that if we open a movie and others find out, it will be a disaster if they imitate us."
"You have to explain it clearly to the cinema, don't let anyone leak it out. Also, we shouldn't use the ticketing platform, just rely on the cinema to sell it ourselves, quietly enter the village, and don't say no loudly."
"Hahaha! Great! I'll tell the cinema to order another batch of promotional tickets and have them give one to each customer during the ticket check in the next few days. We'll wait for August 5th or 6th to open a show and test the waters."
"Yes."
Hu Zi was also a little excited, but after saying this, he didn't hang up the phone, but lowered his voice.
"Well, there's another thing, about that Ms. Tian... you'd better keep a distance from her?"
"… "
Lai Yang's smile froze a little. Although he knew what Hu Zi meant, he still asked why with some dissatisfaction.
"Why do you know clearly that this woman is a scourge? It's because you're close to her that Guang Xun doesn't want to play with you anymore, and that's why President Su wants to have sex with you. You're trying to steal the girl from President Su's friend. You're..."
"beard!"
Lai Yang was a little angry. He licked his dry lips and looked at the mottled shadows of the trees on the ground.
"She's not anyone's girl, and Mr. Su's friend doesn't have that much nerve. Besides, it's not up to others to decide who I want to be with."
"Hey, big brother, you want to make money. You're a performer, and being an enemy of Guangxun is the same as being an enemy of money. You're the first businessman to be an enemy of money, so the box office is not important, right?"
Lai Yang stomped the ground hard with his toes, paused for a few seconds, and then gritted his teeth.
"I am not the enemy of money. Money is not a stumbling block on our road to success, but a ladder for me to climb forward!"
Beep beep beep~
After hanging up the phone, Lai Yang let out a long breath, and then it was as if all the strength in his body was drained away.
After slumping down on the bench, Lai Yang looked up. The sunlight shining through the gaps between the leaves was particularly dazzling.
He looked at his cell phone. It was only about 3:30, and Tian Jing should be here soon, so Lai Yang adjusted his mentality. However, at this moment, he saw a flower shop across the street.
Lai Yang thought for a while and stood up to buy a big bunch of roses. He didn’t give them to her last time, so he must be brave this time.
But what disappointed Lai Yang was that most of the roses in the store were sold out today.
There were only a few flowers left, and they couldn't be tied into a bundle, so the clerk suggested replacing them with baby's breath or lisianthus.
Lai Yang picked for a while and finally chose a bunch of pink lisianthus.
When he sat back on the bench, he took out his cell phone and searched the language of flowers, but the results ruined his good mood.
Platycodon grandiflorum has a dual meaning. One is that happiness will come again. Those who are destined to catch it will be happy for life. But some people will miss it. Therefore, the flower language also means hopeless love...
Lai Yang quit the search and glanced at the time. It was exactly four o'clock.
…
The golden red sun gradually changed its angle above our heads, and the mottled shadows of the trees moved a large area, but tranquility had not yet appeared.
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon. The number of tourists in Disneyland reached a peak at this time, and a large number of young couples passed by Lai Yang.
Seeing them walking into Disney happily, Lai Yang's heart gradually grew cold.
Tian Xiaozhi had already told Tian Jing last night that he would be waiting here today and would see her there.
Although Tian Jing didn't reply, Lai Yang thought she would come, but he seemed to have miscalculated today...
At this time, Lai Yang's cheeks had been tanned by the sun, and beads of sweat had already formed traces on his face. The empty mineral water bottles had been taken away by sanitation workers four times.
But there is no trace of the girl in my heart.
Lai Yang began to become a little irritable, and the Platycodon in his hand began to wither.
While waiting, he saw the setting sun and the waning moon in the sky...
It was not until cheers were heard from Disney that Lai Yang's heart completely sank.
He knew that the fireworks show in Disneyland had already begun, the most beautiful moment had been missed, and there was no point in waiting any longer.
He suddenly felt a little ridiculous, like a clown, and was stared at sideways by people passing by the door.
Lai Yang was tired. Love shouldn't be like this if it was so difficult to balance between Tian Jing and Yu Bo.
That’s actually not necessary. You should have some self-respect!
Lai Yang walked to the trash can nearby and was about to throw away the flowers.
Suddenly, the phone, which had been quiet for the whole afternoon, rang!
