Xie Langxuan said gently, "Leave this matter to me. What you need to do now is to pay close attention to the anime show three days from now. At that time, you might receive another big wave of fans, making you too busy to do anything."
His teasing caused Ji An'an to laugh out loud. "Mm, then go back to your work. I won't take up any of your time."
After hanging up the phone, Ji An'an calmed herself down and walked out of her room.
He could not allow his emotions to affect the elders of his family.
When she came downstairs, her son was in the middle of an evening chess game with the old man.
When Shuibao saw her, he immediately reported, "Mommy, Daddy just came back."
Ji An'an remembered that he had called her earlier. She looked around the living room and asked, "What about him?"
"Daddy went upstairs. Daddy said that he wanted to find you. Did Mommy not see him earlier?" Shuibao asked while scratching his head.
She really didn't see him, but he probably wasn't anything important. She didn't plan to care about him, but at the same time, the old man gave her a puzzled look. She could only reply, "Then I'll go look for him."
She went back upstairs.
He was found on the balcony on the second floor.
It was a bit dark, and the cigarette in his hand was glowing as he leaned against the railing.
She gazed into the distance, thinking about something. Even the sound of her footsteps could not be heard.
"You were looking for me? What's the matter?"
Ji An'an walked to the door and looked out at him.
Teng Yiyang turned his face to look at her. His eyes were dark and unclear, making her unable to see through him.
A light breeze blew in, bringing with it the smell of smoke. Ji An'an felt a little uncomfortable as she took half a step back.
Teng Yiyang noticed her actions and his eyes regained their calmness. He put out the cigarette in the ashtray beside him and stood up straight with his hands in his pockets.
"I'm fine."
Ji An'an didn't know if it was because of the cigarette, but she felt that his voice was a little hoarse.
"Oh." She stroked her hair and replied.
"Then call me in the afternoon …"
Before he could finish, he interrupted her.
"Wrong hand slip."
The entire earth was covered in a thin layer of golden light, which spread to the balcony and covered his body. It was as if his entire body was about to melt into the light, making it impossible to see his expression, and it was as if he was carrying a cold air. It was even colder than the wind that blew in.
Ji An'an felt that she had completed her task and decided to head downstairs.
"Let's stand there for a bit."
Hearing this, she raised her head again. His back was already facing her as he looked outside.
Normally, she would not pay attention to him, but today he seemed to be a little different.
She did not deliberately cause trouble, nor was she too rogue. Her entire body was cold and noble with the elegance of a noble young master, making her feel that it would be rude to leave like this.
She walked up to stand beside him. In fact, she was feeling a bit down today, so she tried to find a topic, "According to Grandpa Teng, the company has been very busy recently. Why did you come back so early today?"
In this small space, she was still far away from him.
He said lightly, "I'll come back for a document. I'll have to go back to the company later."
Ji An'an didn't know what to say, but this person's gaze was always on her. She was a little uncomfortable and a little unhappy.
It wasn't like she did anything wrong, so why did he speak in such a weird manner? It was as if she wanted to talk to him.
Teng Yiyang finally opened his mouth when he felt that she was about to leave again.
"Since you asked about the company, how was your job recently? Have you had any trouble? "
His voice carried the coolness of the evening breeze, and between the estrangement, there was also a bit of serious concern.
Ji An'an was taken aback for a moment before she shook her head. "No."
He glanced at her, and the golden light from his fluttering hair entered his peach blossom eyes. In a flash, it overflowed with colors, blurring the original expression in his eyes.
"Really?" He lowered his voice. In this quiet space, there was a hint of bewitching.
This sound resonated with a part of his memories.
The space instantly reversed. It was as if they had returned to ten years ago, and this was also the same place.
"You were crying just now, and those people bullied you again?"
"Nope."
"Really?"
The young woman looked at the solemn face of the youth, and her eyes began to sparkle.
Ten years later, she was like a bystander as she watched the girl throw herself into the arms of the youth, as if she had found a harbor of protection. Her heart suddenly throbbed with pain.
She had clearly done something that she thought was meaningful, but why did she end up being insulted and scolded by others?
Although she rarely responded to the messages from Weibo fans, she also cherished those who supported her in her comics. When she saw them being called brainless fans in order to protect her, she felt very ashamed of her love for them.
She was sorry that she had been so kind as to do wrong and implicate so many innocent people.
She was very calm in front of Yao Ruo and Xie Langxuan just now. In fact, her heart was already a mess, but she couldn't panic. Instead, it would make those who cared for her more worried and she didn't want to give them any more trouble.
But when her memories came back and the youth became an adult, she would ask him again with a serious expression. She would not be able to do what she had done ten years ago, and would leap into his arms.
She suddenly came to a realization.
Ten years ago, or even ten years later, she could not resist the slightest hint of gentleness he exuded when he was weak.
But she couldn't do that.
Before falling into the whirlpool, she decisively withdrew her foot.
Teng Yiyang stared at her. When he saw that her eyes were filled with tears and revealed an expression of grievance, he couldn't help but want to reach out and embrace her.
But at this moment, she suddenly took a step back. When she raised her head to look at him again, her eyes were bright, as if the tears just now were just an illusion.
"What can I do for you? Even if there's trouble, I can solve it myself. "
His words were distant, as if he did not want to have anything to do with him.0
Teng Yiyang slowly tightened his fingers and the bright light in his eyes dimmed. He revealed a self-deprecating smile, "Then, just take it that I've asked too many questions."
Ji An'an was about to reply when the person in front of her suddenly turned around and brushed past her.
Surprised, she turned around to see him coming down the stairs with a dark expression on his face.
Did she offend him in any way?
Just as she was puzzled, the sound of a car's engine came from downstairs, and soon the Rolls-Royce disappeared like a flash of white light at the end of the road.
She looked away, feeling that the man was baffling. As she was about to leave the balcony, she caught a glimpse of the ashtray on the railing. There were a lot of cigarette butts thrown on it.
Didn't he promise his son that he wouldn't smoke?
He went back on his word.
Teng Yiyang sat in the car with a sullen expression.
It had been a long time since he had felt so defeated.
One must know, as long as she said those words, he would definitely make those people pay.
But she would rather have an indifferent man help than tell him.
Remembering that she had spoken gently into the phone in his room, he felt as if a bottle of vinegar had turned over in his heart. His face had turned sour, and he could not help but increase his horsepower as he sped up the driveway.
