Qin Tai sohow t Mo Zan at the wedding of his good friend Wen Hui. The woman had that sa queenly aura since she was still the boss of a whole company, yet mixed with it was so hint of gloominess. Obviously, the slight decline of Drear for the past years had dealt so damage to her esteem, or made her a bit morose.
He politely raised a glass towards her as a response when she raised her glass for a toast. After that, he looked away.
The painter Gao Jing approached him and clinked his champagne flute against his. "Cheers! One less unmarried guy in the world!"
"Are you doing this intentionally? I'm single. I'm not the one you should be looking for," a bit irritated, he replied.
Gao Jing laughed, "Well, the groom has already left. Jiang Li also slipped out with his girlfriend. And you look lonely in this corner."
The man shook his head. His friend's words were a bit offending but true. For the past years, he never entered a relationship, even after he moved on completely from his first love. It was not that he developed an aversion towards girls or love itself. He just couldn't find the right person. Well, his fault was not actively looking for it and believing it would co find him on its own.
He had to admit that Jiang Li had done him a bit of damage. Ever since the 'love yourself first' motto got etched into his mind, he began to feel like if he would ever fall in love again, it had to be with soone who would love him more than he loved himself. That selfish thoughts just blossod and had yet to wither from the depths of his heart even though he knew it might lead to him being single for life.
When he fessed this up to Jiang Li, the older man laughed and said, 'Hey, there is nothing wrong with your choice. If you think you're not yet the kind of treasure you want to be, it's fine. Take your ti. Beco better than you currently are so when the ti cos and you fall hard again, at least it will be easier for you to rember your true worth once it goes south again.'
The funny words of his friend made him realize. It might be that after experiencing to be at the bottom and be left with nothing after he offered his all, he sohow wanted to experience the sa, to be the person receiving that kind and intensity of affection. Would that ti ever co though?
Qin Tai laughed. Gao Jing thought his expression was weird and walked away to look for another person to chat with, soone more normal.
As for the CEO, since he didn't want to mingle with people yet also didn't want to be pointed at for being a loner, he decided to simply leave. The event was over anyways and he was not the kind which needed to be escorted out by the hosts.
Joining Gao Jing, Dwight, and the others for a brief get together? No, thanks. Those people were all with their girlfriends. He would just make the situation awkward since an hour ago, he laughed after seeing all his friends together with won used to be close to Liu De. For sure, those narrow-minded guys would not let go of the chance to mock him once he ca over.
He was speaking on the phone with his mother who was sowhere in the hall when he bumped into Mo Zan again on his way to the elevator. He looked at her for a couple of seconds.
Mo Zan He heard that the past two years had quite been rough for her, and he had a hunch it was because Jiang Li kept doing so harassnt tactics in their business through so unknown ans.
That ti, the company had yet to recover from the nurous scandals brought to them by Liu De and Mo Fang. They managed to stay afloat, but it couldn't be denied that since then Drear was barely comparable to his Starlight, unlike before when they were standing shoulder to shoulder in the Entertainnt World. It was a result that stemd from Mo Zan and Mo Fang's act of threatening him two years ago.
Was there still anyone that pissed off Jiang Li before who have yet to get so sort of revenge from him?
To be honest, he couldn't rember. He was included among those that tasted revenge from the two-faced guy since he accidentally angered him one ti when he got drunk and tossed his laptop on the pool while laughing. He was having a hard ti recalling why he did that.
Qin Tai regained his senses and realized the woman had been staring at him with a complicated glint in her eyes. He rely nodded then walked past her.
"You loved too early, and I, too late" After she said in a bitter voice while wearing a self-mocking expression, she did not do anything else.
Back then, he pretended that he did not hear her. But he was thankful that she seed to have accepted that there was no possibility of a restart between them, unless miracles exist.
'Hmm? A guy thinking he has already crossed the bridged when he had just got there?'
Dong Lan saw the brief encounter and subconsciously divined about them. Now, he no longer needed tarot cards or other tools since he could do it by simply looking at the person's appearance for around five seconds.
The vision he got was interesting... and cringe-worthy, and he wanted to inform the other about it.
Unfortunately, before he could approach the tall and handso guy who seed to be quite close to his fellow transmigrator, the campus belle nad Xia Ling called out his na and distracted him with small talks. When he rembered the prediction again, the other was already nowhere in sight. Seeing this, he could shrug and then escort his girlfriend ho.
'That man seems to be related to my mysterious friend. I'll just have Jiang Li pass the ssage to him.'
When the guy got to the hotel sponsored by Tang Yu Yan and her husband to those who ca afar, poor or not, regardless of profession, he pulled up his phone and texted,
'Hello. I know you're familiar with a guy called Qin Tai. Tell him I did so little predictions for him,' he began, diving in the bed.
'His career will have small ups and downs but it is guaranteed that he won't cause his family to be bankrupt.'
'... And his love life will be the sa, quite colorful. After all, he seems to be like a character from a book. Tall, rich, and handso (I'm sincerely not hoping in the back of my head for him to die). Girls fell for him easily. But after being hurt and recovering from it, he will fall for soone head over heels, no, completely obsessed, for him. She will be quite destitute and in dire straits though for being thrown out by her clan or sothing...'
'Oh, and her na is Mo Zan... soone he should be familiar with already! I don't know what's their fates. But it's like sothing written by a sicko author! A villainess turning into a good leaf and a guy with a terminal dead inside disease, the usual and undying combination in drama novels nowadays!'
The guy who had regained a bit of cheekiness subtly hinted to make sure his na as the fortune-teller was ntioned. His goal was to reap so benefits from the wealthy man as an exchange for his reading.
Dong Lan's ssage got through.
However, that ti, Jiang Li's phone was nowhere in reach, thrown sowhere together with his outer coat and other pieces of clothing. It was gloriously ignored even after it rang for more than a minute.
The reason? Well, not because he was back to his lonely townhouse, taking a bath. But because he was still at Selena Tang's penthouse with the passionate event in front of the door sohow proceeding to her bedroom.
The man had missed holding his wife in his arms for two lifetis so when the atmosphere escalated into sothing steamy, he just let things happened. Dong Lan's ssage was snubbed since the supposed recipient of the text was busy with a matter more important than sobody else's fortune.
