The year-end comndation eting ended at noon, followed by a al gathering for all factory employees.
Tian Xiang changed her clothes and went outside, where ng Cheng’an was waiting for her.
The two of them chose not to participate in the factory’s lunch event today and went to the ng Family near the Military and Political Institute to have a al.
The grandfather and grandson had moved there nearly half a month ago, but Tian Xiang was always busy with work and hadn’t visited yet.
Mr. ng was going back to Beijing tomorrow, so Tian Xiang went over for a al and a chat.
Mr. ng’s car was already waiting at the factory entrance, and before leaving, Tian Xiang inford her ntor and the others.
Today, she and ng Cheng’an went on stage, and her ntor made a cao appearance. Her senior brothers and sisters accompanied them with music and were also staying for lunch at the factory, planning to leave after they had eaten their fill.
Upon hearing his beloved disciple was going to dine with a big leader, Zhou Jian hurried her, saying not to keep them waiting too long.
Previously, news about Tian Xiang and ng Cheng’an had spread to the troupe, and Zhou Jian was pretty concerned about the two of them.
Fortunately, his beloved disciple endured hardships and ca out on top.
Tian Xiang and ng Cheng’an quickly departed.
After getting in the car, Mr. ng praised her, saying her performance was excellent, comparable to that of professional actors.
"Xiangxiang, have you ever considered developing in this area? Grandpa can get you into the Drama College in Beijing."
Initially, Tian Xiang thought Mr. ng was joking, but after a couple of exchanges, she realized he was serious.
Tian Xiang looked sowhat bewildered at ng Cheng’an next to her, noticing his expression was sowhat off, indicating there was more to it.
Tian Xiang had contemplated attending university, hoping to take next year’s college entrance exam as a test of her capabilities.
Tian Xiang: "Grandpa, let’s wait and see next year."
"Oh."
Mr. ng seed a bit disappointed.
The city had arranged a three-bedroom apartnt with a garden for Mr. ng.
From the resettlent area to here, Little Black had also moved over.
Upon entering, Tian Xiang first greeted Little Black before washing her hands in preparation for the al.
To cater to Mr. ng’s needs, a cook was specially arranged to prepare als at ho.
The skills were quite good, with soup, at, and a balanced mix of vegetarian and at dishes.
After the al, Mr. ng brought out an album for Tian Xiang to look at, pointing out people, and asked her to identify them.
In high spirits, he then proposed, "Xiangxiang, how about coming with to Beijing for the New Year this year and eting Cheng’an’s dad?"
Tian Xiang looked a bit puzzled at ng Cheng’an sitting beside her.
ng Cheng’an: "Ignore him."
Tian Xiang: "..."
Mr. ng: "Ungrateful boy, wasting my affection!"
ng Cheng’an: "Grandpa, are you tired? Want to lie down for a while?"
Mr. ng gave a cold hum, then advised Tian Xiang, "Xiangxiang, talk to him for a while. Don’t rush off; there’s nothing in the afternoon, and I’ll have the driver take you ho after dinner."
Tian Xiang nodded.
Mr. ng soon left.
Tian Xiang asked ng Cheng’an, "Is there sothing going on?"
"No."
Answered so quickly—there definitely is.
Tian Xiang: "Tomorrow your grandpa goes back to Beijing, aren’t you going with him? Spending the New Year here?"
ng Cheng’an: "Yeah."
"Why?"
Tian Xiang found it strange; it’s rare for a family to be able to reunite, yet he’s staying behind alone.
ng Cheng’an looked at her silently.
Tian Xiang’s mouth twitched, "You’re not staying for , are you?"
ng Cheng’an nodded.
Tian Xiang was speechless, "It’s just spending New Year; you could co back afterward."
ng Cheng’an shook his head, "My dad and grandpa want to study in Beijing."
No wonder Mr. ng proposed she attend university there and spent the New Year in Beijing; he aid to get ng Cheng’an over through her.
Tian Xiang had actually contemplated the ng Family’s resurgence.
Due to his background, ng Cheng’an likely didn’t receive much education growing up, and people of their status weren’t even allowed to attend high school.
Tian Xiang: "What do you think?"
ng Cheng’an: "I don’t want to go."
"Why?"
"No reason."
There’s no way there’s no reason.
Tian Xiang said brazenly, "You can’t stand being apart from ?"
ng Cheng’an remained silent, but it was clear.
Tian Xiang took a deep breath, suddenly understanding why ng Cheng’an appeared aimless since the hostile intentions on his forehead vanished.
He lacked goals; his current actions centered upon himself, akin to being an accessory.
Tian Xiang: "I feel you should go study, make up for past regrets, and carve out your own career. Look at your dad and your two aunts; they’re all remarkable individuals, and you should aspire to be like them."
If the ng Family hadn’t faced previous challenges, ng Cheng’an would have been soone with goals and ambitions, destined for a bright future—totally different from now.
Nonetheless, there’s still ti; he’s young.
Thus, Tian Xiang supports him going to study.
ng Cheng’an: "Those things don’t matter to ."
He simply wished to be with the person before him, and he was very clear she wouldn’t leave her family to head to Beijing; she had her direction and determination.
She had always been like that, with goals, ideas, and never lost.
Tian Xiang: "What’s most important to you?"
"You."
Without hesitation, he blurted out.
Tian Xiang leaned in and kissed him, "Good boy."
Who wouldn’t want to be put in the most important position? She was delighted.
Tian Xiang wanted to pull back, but ng Cheng’an followed, and as they glanced at the study door and found it closed, they kissed directly.
Lately, his kissing skills have improved, making Tian Xiang feel ticklish inside, sowhat uncontrollably contemplating marriage.
But it’s just a thought, patience is needed; first, develop their careers for two more years.
After kissing, they sat holding each other on the sofa.
Tian Xiang said, "You better go."
"Not going."
Having kissed her, ng Cheng’an even less wanted to go.
Tsk, acting like a child.
Tian Xiang: "You go first, and I’ll co later."
ng Cheng’an: "?"
Tian Xiang: "Didn’t I tell you before, the college entrance exam will open up, I plan to go find you by exam then."
ng Cheng’an: "Then, I’ll go with you."
Tian Xiang: "No, you go first. Study while you help pick a school, strive to make a na for yourself. When I co, you’ll back up so I can flaunt among classmates."
ng Cheng’an: "???"
She’s not like that.
Tian Xiang: "Why, don’t recognize ?"
ng Cheng’an: "You really think so?"
Tian Xiang: "Of course. Don’t think I’m that noble; in the past, it was different, but now that there’s a chance, I definitely want to show off."
ng Cheng’an wanted to say, isn’t it already enough?
But on second thought, his current achievents were all thanks to family. If separated, apart from good looks, he really wasn’t outstanding.
"But I don’t want to be away from you."
Tian Xiang: "This isn’t separation; it’s progressing together, for a better future."
ng Cheng’an t her starry eyes and nodded, "Okay then. But first, let’s agree that if you fail or if there are any mishaps with the college entrance exam, you’ll follow Grandpa’s arrangent and apply to the school in Beijing to find ."
ng Cheng’an agreed.
As his words fell, Tian Xiang noticed new characterization tags appeared on his forehead—"Supporting Male Role 1" ca into view.
