Chapter 271 Dong Nianshuangâs LoveLang Ruoxian walks among a group of people. He notices Dong Nianshuangâs gaze and tilts his head to glance.
âLang Ruoxianâ¦â Hua Yan also sees him.
Dong Nianshuang almost stands up and goes to greet Lang Ruoxian, but she doesnât do so, not because she refrains in time, but because Lang Ruoxian turns a blind eye to her after glancing at her and goes straight out.
âWhatâs wrong with you?â Hua Yan sees her eyes suddenly become dim and wonders. âHave you met Lang Ruoxian?â
Dong Nianshuang immediately shakes her head. âNo, I suddenly feel sick in my stomach.â
âDoes it matter?â
âI am fine. Itâs an old problem.â
Dong Nianshuang takes a glance secretly and sees that Lang Ruoxian has left the hotel without looking at her from beginning to end.
âDo you have to go to the hospital?â Seeing her look so pale, Hua Yan asks again, âIs your stomach not good at ordinary times?â
âActors all have such professional illness.â Dong Nianshuang pats her face and looks like gathering her energy. âDrinking something hot, I will be fine. By the way, it seems that Tang Consortium hasnât run well recently.â
Hua Yan calls the waiter to serve her a cup of hot cocoa. âItâs not very good. Even if it can survive, it will be weakened.â
âHave they offended anyone?â Dong Nianshuang lowers her voice and asks curiously. âI heard from the director in the crew that Tang Family was avenged.â
Hua Yan smiles. âWho do you think in Yanjing can retaliate against their family?â
âIs itâ¦â Dong Nianshuang covers her mouth. âIt canât be? Isnât that one who has always been good to Tang Duo?â
âHowever good he treats Tang Duo, he will treat his own children better.â Hua Yan raises his hand to touch her head. âSo curious?â
Dong Nianshuang smiles shyly. âYou know, I used to be jealous of Tang Duo. She was so beautiful and had a good family background. In fact, I wanted to be friends with her at first, but unfortunately our two families would never be friends.â
Seeing Hua Yan keep silence, Dong Nianshuang thinks of something. âSorry, shouldnât I mention Tang Family in front of youâ¦â
âItâs OK. Itâs all over.â Hua Yan smiles. âWhat do you think about the engagement I just said?â
Dong Nianshuang pauses and lifts up with a sweet smile. âI donât mind! You can set a date, but youâd better set it at the end of the year or early next year.â
Hua Yan thinks the date is a bit late. He just frowns, and then Dong Nianshuang goes on saying.
âI have too much work to do in the second half of the year. Both movies will be filmed in remote mountains and forests. At the end of the year, there will be an award ceremony and I have to go abroad to shoot advertisements. So the time is too short, you know I have out of the circle for more than a year and now I have to increase my exposure rate.â
Hua Yan thinks for a moment. âOK, then donât choose the end of this year, for itâs too cold. We just set it in next April and you remember to spare the time.â
âOK!â Dong Nianshuang folds her hands. âI hope I can get an award by the end of the year. This is the best engagement gift I will give to myself.â
Hua Yan looks at her as if he looks at a child. âYou will certainly succeed. You will definitely become a movie queen!â
When Tang Yu comes to meet Lang Ruoxian, he is extremely cordial, as if they were not the ones who had caused so much trouble to the second branch of Tang Family.
âRuoxian, think it over. If you sign on this, you will lose more than a billion yuan!â
Lang Ruoxian looks at him and signs his name without hesitation. âIf I donât sign it, how will you explain to Uncle?â
âAh, you young people are impatient!â Tang Yu takes the document over. He looks at it carefully and hands it to his assistant. âYou say, why did you provoke Tang Rui?â
âMy dad loves my youngest brother most, otherwise this time your company will not be like thisâ¦â
Lang Ruoxian raises his eyebrows. âI donât quite understand what cousin means.â
âHaha! You know it very well in your heart.â Tang Yu stands up, âWell, I wonât hold you up. Since the contract has been signed, I shall go first. However, there is a saying that there is no eternal enemy, and I hope we can have a good cooperation next time.â
Lang Ruoxian makes a gesture of asking him to leave and Shu Sheng shows Tang Yu out.
âYoung Master, is he warning you?â
âNot him, but Tang Ming.â Lang Ruoxian throws away his pen. âDonât worry about the first branch of Tang Family. Tang Ming will leave office soon. They will be busy enough with their own affairs.â
Shu Sheng nods. âHow about the money?â
âLeave it.â Lang Ruoxian knocks on the table. âItâs not time to use it. What is the most profitable project for the company now?â
âWe have been the agent of the luxurious furniture abroad. At present, its market share in the luxurious market has reached 40%.â Shu Sheng puts a contract on the table. âA flagship store will open the day after tomorrow. The public relation office hopes that you will go there in person.â
Lang Ruoxian nods. âOK, you can arrange it.â
Tang Consortiumâs shares have plummeted. Lang Ruoxianâs appearance in public can appease those shareholders. Moreover, the flagship store opens in Tang Consortiumâs shopping mall, and even the shopping mall can get publicized.
âButâ¦â Shu Sheng glances at him. âDong Nianshuang will go there, too. She is the spokesperson.â
Lang Ruoxian doesnât say a word with a cold face. Although he stands with Dong Nianshuang on the opening day, he had no communication with her and even doesnât look at her. When the reporter takes the photos, he asks the two to be closer to each other to show intimacy. But the reporter is so frightened by Lang Ruoxianâs cold stare that he almost throws the camera out.
âMr. Langâ¦â When it finishes, Dong Nianshuang stops Lang Ruoxian in the parking lot and looks at him with grievance. âMr. Lang, are you dissatisfied with me as the spokesperson?â
Lang Ruoxian steps back and stays away from her. âItâs not the first time you know that our family are not satisfied with you.â
Dong Nianshuang is stunned. âYouâre not a member of Tang Familyâ¦â
âMy wife is, so am I.â Lang Ruoxian looks at him impatiently. âYour contract with our company is only one year. If you are anxious, you can break the contract. I will not ask you to pay the liquidated damages.â
Dong Nianshuangâs heart seems to be blocked with a stone and she cannot breathe. âLang Ruoxian! You hate me so much? Or because Tang Duo said something in front of you?â
âYou are sick.â Lang Ruoxian simply glances at her coldly and lifts his feet to get into the car.
Dong Nianshuang suddenly bends down. Lang Ruoxian thinks that she is about to fall and stops immediately. But the woman only raises her hand, and then glares at him with red eyes, leaving.
âYoung Master, there seems to be a reporter.â Shu Sheng notices a light in a car not far away, but the car has already left.
Lang Ruoxian looks sullenly. âWatch out, if someone rumors online, you must remove those posts immediately.â
When he gets home, he is still dark-faced. Bai Susu thinks that he is angry because of the companyâs business. But Yan Hua knows him very well. When she sees the appearance of his going crazy, she knows that someone must have provoked him.
âWho offended you?â
Lang Ruoxian looks at his son beside the dining table. Gungun is busy eating, but he listens with all ears. He must be eavesdropping on adults.
âGungun, go to do your homework after eating.â
Gungun looks up at Lang Ruoxian seriously. âDad, tomorrow there will be an exam, so today there is no homework.â
âThen donât you need to review?â Lang Ruoxian thinks that his silly but sweet son has become more and more disobedient recently.
âI never review!â Gungun puts down the bowl. âHave you ever seen anyone who can score 60 still need review?â
Lang Ruoxian looks at Yan Hua, and Yan Hua shrugs. âYour son scores about 60 every time. Donât you know?â
He really doesnât knowâ¦
âThen you go to play.â Lang Ruoxian puts down his chopsticks. Gungun still wants to challenge his father but he is dragged away by Wuyou.
Bai Susu coughs twice. âGungun doesnât like to learn. I think he just needs to have good values. Look at Tang Cao, he also failed the exams when he was a kid.â
Lang Ruoxian is speechless. His unlucky brother-in-law is also not here today.
When the couple close their room door in the evening, Lang Ruoxian tells Yan Hua that he met Dong Nianshuang in the opening of the store. He looks to feel sick about her.
Yan Hua thinks for a few seconds, and glares. âI think that she really likes you!â
When she finishes saying, she feels cold around. It seems that the temperature in the room quickly drops.
âWhat are you thinkingâ¦â Yan Hua tugs at the manâs sleeve and Lang Ruoxian looks at her gloomily. âI am thinking how to kill her.â
Yan Hua laughs drily. âWell, letâs talk about Gungun!â
âI donât mind how many points he gets in the exam, but he has to learn as long as he stays in the school.â This is the minimum requirement of Lang Ruoxian.
âDonât worry. Itâs not like that.â Yan Hua says, âHe just writes so much on the exam. It seems that he will finish writing if he can score about 60 points. I asked him why not just write nothing. He said that failing the exam would affect the teacherâs bonus.â
Lang Ruoxian rubs his eyebrows. âHow about Wuyou?â
âEvery time she will score 100â¦â
Only later does Lang Ruoxian know that even if his son finishes doing all the paper, he wonât be able to score 100, that is but only 80 or so. Yan Hua thinks this is normal. After all, when he tested IQ in his childhood, Gungun was just an ordinary child.
If an ordinary person doesnât work hard, his performance will naturally be mediocre.
Knowing that Gungun has not wasted his time in school, Lang Ruoxian doesnât talk to his son, but when the summer vacation begins, Gungun comes to him though he doesnât go to talk to Gungun. This is a later story. Letâs talk about the headline of the next day first.
âYoung Master, someone has released the photos of you and Dong Nianshuang.â Early in the morning, Shu Sheng shows Lang Ruoxian the photos on the Internet.
In the photos, he is very close to Dong Nianshuang. Dong Nianshuangâs hands are on his shoulder. The two seem very intimate.
âIt is a dislocation photo-taking.â Shu Sheng says, âWe have already let them remove the photos, but someone acts more quickly than us.â
Hua Yan hangs up and calls Dong Nianshuang.
âDonât worry. Iâve handled all the photos online.â
âWell, I know itâs a dislocation photo-taking.â
âItâs OK. What time will you finish work in the evening? I will pick you up. OK! See you tonight.â
Dong Nianshuang puts down her mobile phone and looks at herself in the mirror. Suddenly she throws the hairpin on her head onto the ground.
âSister Nianshuangâ¦â The young assistant just comes in and gets a fright.
Dong Nianshuang covers her chest and gasps for several times. âItâs okay. Call a makeup artist to help me comb my hair again.â
âOh⦠OK.â
She doesnât want to cheat herself. She loves Lang Ruoxian. She loves a married man!
âHahaâ¦â Dong Nianshuang smiles. âTang Duo, why do all the men I like have something to do with you, formerly Hua Yan, now Lang Ruoxianâ¦â
She clenches her fist firmly and then loosens it. âBut it doesnât matter. Hua Yan could abandon you at that time, and so can Lang Ruoxian. I donât believe that I will never compete with you!â
