Red Five Street Central Square.
To watch the movie with Tian Xiang, ng Cheng’an even bought a box of cookies at the grocery store.
It’s just a movie, buying so sunflower seeds and peanuts would suffice, why buy cookies?
Upon hearing her ntion sunflower seeds and peanuts, ng Cheng’an went and bought two packs.
This guy...
Tian Xiang didn’t know what to say.
ng Cheng’an: "I didn’t have breakfast."
Actually, he hadn’t eaten anything since last night.
Tian Xiang felt sorry as soon as she heard that.
"Why don’t we grab sothing to eat first."
After all, there’s still half an hour until the movie starts.
ng Cheng’an: "No need, I don’t want to go."
He was afraid that if they ate, they might miss the movie.
He really wanted to watch this movie with her.
Tian Xiang could also see that he was very nervous.
Fine, if he doesn’t want to eat, then so be it.
Tian Xiang opened the box of cookies to let him fill his stomach a bit.
The two of them leaned against the bicycle chatting by the edge of the square. Tian Xiang asked him, "Why do you have so many tickets?"
Tian Xiang noticed that besides not having industrial coupons, he had lots of food and other tickets.
In the factory, he was on the sa level as her. Logically, the tickets distributed by the managent should be the sa. His grandpa didn’t work, so their expenses in this regard should be quite tight.
ng Cheng’an: "Back in the day, my grandpa was a leader in the military district here with many soldiers under him. The uncles take good care of us and quietly send us so tickets."
In the past, so even brought money over, but the old man firmly refused.
So that’s how it is.
It seems like the old man was a good person, building many good relationships. Even if the family is this way now, there are still people secretly helping them.
The two chatted for a while, and when the ti ca, they went in to watch the movie.
The movie lasted over an hour, finishing just after twelve, perfectly tid to have lunch at the bridgehead and then head straight to the Sanli Lane Theater Group.
The senior brothers and sisters at the troupe gave aningful smiles when they saw the two arriving together.
Tian Xiang didn’t hide it anymore and publicly revealed their relationship status.
Oh, at last, they’re together.
Quite a few people reached out to ng Cheng’an, asking him to treat them with candy.
Originally, it was just a joke to tease young people, but who knew ng Cheng’an took it seriously and really went to the nearby grocery store to buy two pounds of candy.
This guy...
This young man really knows how to act!
The senior brothers and sisters were elated, even more so when they heard they might perform at the chanical Factory.
Tian Xiang and ng Cheng’an stayed at the theater group until after five.
As they prepared to part ways at the bridgehead, Tian Xiang was still a bit worried and advised, "Buy so groceries on your way back, cook so noodles tonight, eat early and rest early, otherwise those dark circles won’t go away, and that won’t look good, you won’t be handso anymore."
ng Cheng’an nervously touched his face, "Okay."
He knew very well that a big part of why Tian Xiang liked him was because of his looks, so he needed to take good care of it.
Tian Xiang cleared her throat, "Alright, I’m leaving now."
"Okay."
Sigh, he beca so obedient again.
But this morning he almost roasted soone.
Thinking back now, Tian Xiang still felt a lingering fear, unsure when those dark tendencies would dissipate. It felt like walking a tightrope, and Tian Xiang was quite scared.
But so things couldn’t be helped. Not to ntion she really liked ng Cheng’an, and with his current villainous persona, Tian Xiang felt she had a big responsibility.
Most of it was her doing.
Besides, he had no one by his side right now, looking quite pitiful, and she was the only one who could comfort him.
Tian Xiang rode back on her bike.
ng Cheng’an turned around and headed back to the settlent area only after she was out of sight.
The Tian Family courtyard, Hu Honglian was very happy to see her daughter returning at that ti, thinking she had been with Zhou Ming all along.
"Xiangxiang, what do you want for dinner?"
Hu Honglian was amiable and proactively attempted to nd their relationship, hoping to quickly resolve any past unpleasantness.
Tian Xiang: "Anything is fine, Mom, it’s up to you."
Hu Honglian: "How about I make so noodle dough drops and an olet for you?"
Tian Xiang nodded, put her things down, poured herself a cup of hot water, and drank it.
Hu Honglian didn’t rush to cook, standing beside her daughter, smiling the whole ti.
Tian Xiang felt a bit inexplicable, "Mom, aren’t you busy?"
Since she wasn’t working, there wasn’t much to be busy with.
Hu Honglian hesitated for a mont and then asked, "So, how did it go with Zhou Ming today? You didn’t co back for lunch with him, right? Where did you go in the afternoon? How did it feel? Didn’t I say he is a good person? Now do you see?"
This matter...
Tian Xiang: "In the afternoon, I went to the theater group. I signed up for a program for the end-of-year comndation conference, planning to perform a model opera."
Oh, so they didn’t go on a date in the afternoon.
Hu Honglian’s smile faded a bit.
"So what about lunch, you ate together, right?"
Tian Xiang: "No."
"What?" Hu Honglian was surprised, "Then why didn’t you co back?"
Tian Xiang didn’t directly answer the question and sighed, "Mom, I didn’t take a liking to him, not before, not now. Before we watched the movie today, I already made things clear with him, and he should understand that there’s no future for us, and we won’t be in contact anymore."
Upon hearing this, Hu Honglian’s face turned dark.
"So you had lunch with ng Cheng’an and even spent the afternoon with him?"
Tian Xiang nodded.
In fact, she watched the movie with him too, but didn’t dare to admit it.
Hu Honglian pointed at her daughter, her face flushed with anger.
It’s true that daughters are hard to keep as they grow, the obedient, sensible daughter turned out just...
Hu Honglian glanced around, grabbed the feather duster off the wall, and wanted to hit her daughter with it.
Tian Chenhui just happened to enter, saw this scene, and quickly stopped Hu Honglian.
"Mom, this is our Old Tian Family’s precious daughter, who has earned us face, been on the news, and received banners, would you really bear to hit her?"
"I..."
Hu Honglian, feeling stifled, threw the feather duster on the ground and went back to her room to lie down.
The siblings looked at each other helplessly. Tian Chenhui asked, "Is it about you and ng Cheng’an?"
There wasn’t anything else that could make their mother so angry.
Tian Xiang nodded.
Tian Chenhui sighed and asked in a low voice, "Are you really set on him? You don’t care about his family’s situation? Xiangxiang, Second Brother specifically asked soone to find out these past few days, his grandpa was taken away two or three months ago! And he hasn’t co back yet, aren’t you really afraid?"
If it weren’t for Grandpa ng being taken, Tian Chenhui would have helped persuade their family. After all, ng Cheng’an was indeed very handso, he couldn’t help but take a few more glances himself.
But now...
He feared his sister would suffer if she married over.
Tian Xiang: "We’ll discuss things once his grandpa cos back."
Tian Xiang couldn’t leave ng Cheng’an now; she couldn’t, and wouldn’t.
If she didn’t care about him, he would destroy everything, and there might not be just one or two deaths.
A villain who has gone bad won’t stop killing.
Tian Chenhui was sowhat speechless, pointing towards their parents’ room, "So what now?"
Tian Xiang: "For now, let’s just wait until Grandpa ng cos back and see how things are."
If Mr. ng brought back good news, then the current problem wouldn’t need addressing, as it would be resolved on its own.
