Chapter 514: 350: The Longer We're Together, The Shyer We Become _3

Tang Wan babbled on and on, leaving Tang Yue both amused and puzzled.

When did he ever mention that he liked Ye Yining?

He just thought this girl was quite extraordinary, and he kind of liked her. That’s it.

However, he had to admit that rather than going on arranged dates with those so-called rich daughters and world-famous ladies, it felt much more relaxing and comfortable to chat with Ye Yining.

Then, before he knew it, Tang Yue found himself driving to Shi Li Entertainment, only realizing where he ended up when he pulled up to the entrance of the company.

He had originally planned to turn around, but ironically, the car ran out of gas at that moment.

“Hiss–”

Tang Yue chuckled, speechless.

Since he was here, why not go in and take a look around? Maybe Gu Li was inside.

With that thought, Tang Yue decided to get out of his car.

After presenting his credentials to the security guard and receiving a visitor’s card, he headed inside with confidence.

As he had visited Shi Li Entertainment before, the new employees recognized him and quickly invited him up the building.

“President Tang, President Song and Miss Ye are in the practice room. I will invite them out for you,” the receptionist politely told Tang Yue.

Tang Yue responded, “I’ll go to the practice room myself.”

“Okay… the practice room is in the farthest room on the right side of the fourth floor.”

The receptionist, aware of his close relationship with the bosses, did not object further.

“Thank you.”

Tang Yue threw her a casual smile. His noble demeanor left stars in the receptionist’s eyes.

Working here for too long, would she ever get married?

After all, every person who came to the company was more handsome than the last.

…

Tang Yue arrived on the fourth floor and slowly walked to the right.

As he approached the practice room, he noticed that the door was left open. Standing at the entrance, he could see Song Yunque and Ye Yining huddling together, whispering about something.

Tang Yue squinted his eyes. There was something about this scene that left him feeling uncomfortable.

His hand, which was originally raised to knock on the door, was left hanging in mid-air. He didn’t knock, but he didn’t withdraw his hand either.

Unaware of Tang Yue’s presence, Song Yunque and Ye Yining were discussing the title of a new song.

“How about ‘Reunion’? Simple and concise.”

Song Yunque was pleased with the name he suggested.

But Ye Yining shook her head, “I don’t like it. Too monotonous.”

“Do you have ANY other suggestions?”

Song Yunque asked her sincerely.

Ye Yining thought hard before a sudden inspiration hit, “How about, ‘Pain of Past Love’?”

“Pain of Past Love?”

Song Yunque repeated it, “Good, let’s go with this. It really pierces the heart. Sister Yining, you should try writing lyrics next time. I believe you would not do worse than me.”

“No, let me focus on singing for now, one step at a time.”

“Alright. We can wait until your EP becomes a hit, then in your next album, we’ll consider writing our own lyrics or composing.”

“Mm-hmm, thank you, Yunque.”

Ye Yining looked at him gratefully.

He was a gentleman from a noble family, elegant yet approachable and lovely, friendly like the boy next door. The more time she spent with him, the more she found him endearing.

Of course, it was purely a platonic liking, like a sister for her younger brother.

Ye Yining looked at Song Yunque with a delighted smile. Her radiant grin, like a burst of sunshine, fell into Tang Yue’s eyes without any concealment.

Tang Yue found himself staring, and it was only after a long while that he snapped out of it.

Realizing that Ye Yining’s smile had captivated him, his expression darkened.

What was he doing here anyway?

Was he purposely here to witness these two flirting, getting all cozy with each other? Was he inflicting self-torture?

The more Tang Yue thought about it, the more agitated he felt, and decided to leave.

Just as he turned around, Song Yunque happened to look back and spotted him.

“President Tang, what brings you here?”

Song Yunque was surprised to see Tang Yue, not expecting him to drop by.

Left with no choice, Tang Yue slowly turned around with a forced smile on his lips, “My car ran out of gas nearby, so I thought I’d drop by to see you. Is Gu Li not around?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Gu Li is at school.”

Song Yunque walked up to him and helped open the practice room’s door wide, “Since you’re here, why not sit down and have some coffee?”

“No, I have other things to do, I’ll get going.”

Tang Yue replied succinctly, and subconsciously glanced over at Ye Yining who just stood up from the piano and was slowly walking towards the door, “Miss Ye.”

“Mr. Tang.”

Ye Yining greeted him with a smile, then advised, “There isn’t a gas station nearby. You may want to call your insurance company to help with the situation.”

“Alright, thank you for the suggestion.”

Seeing Ye Yining caring about his situation, Tang Yue’s expression warmed up.

At that moment, he no longer seemed to be in a hurry to leave.
