Chapter 271: Chapter 271: The Urge to Collect Everything About Him
He always prided himself as an elder, but now when the younger one makes a mistake, can he really still point his finger at her and accuse her of taking advantage of him?
Any man with a bit of generosity wouldn’t fuss over such situations.
Even if he truly did suffer a loss.
At tis like this, the best choice seems to be to let the aftermath fade away quickly.
After taking a shower, Tang Li sat at her desk, completely sleepless, reflecting on her actions. If she were to repeat the scene, she probably wouldn’t have the courage to run back there again.
Occasionally, the light snoring of Wu Xuehan in deep sleep echoed in the room.
Tang Li opened her desk’s drawer.
She took out the biggest Peninsula Iron Box from the bottom, gently lifted the lid; the cigarette butt was still lying in the corner, and she pulled out a one-hundred-yuan bill from her down jacket pocket.
This bill was the one she took from Song Baiyan’s wallet.
Then she swapped in her own hundred bucks.
She leaned forward on the desk, looking at the cigarette butt and the hundred yuan in the Peninsula Iron Box; these were his belongings, and now his wallet also held her bill.
With that thought, Tang Li’s lips curved up slightly.
It seed like the first ti in her life that she so wanted to keep sothing belonging to a man.
She was not really nineteen anymore, but right now, she was doing the “silly” things that a girl experiencing the first awakening of love would do.
Unable to sleep, she simply picked up the colorful threads from the iron box and started to weave a bracelet.
When Tang Li woke up the next day, it was already around two o’clock in the afternoon.
Wu Xuehan was squatting on a chair with her headphones on, watching ani and eating shrimp sticks. Noticing Tang Li getting up, she imdiately paused the video and took off her headphones to cater to Tang Li: “Ah Li, shall I order so takeout for you? What would you like to eat?”
Tang Li walked over to the desk, intending to grab an elastic band to tie her hair, but instead noticed a sachet lying quietly on the desk.
——It was the very sachet she had wanted to give to Song Baiyan the night before.
Wu Xuehan followed and tentatively said: “Yu Sui just wanted to play a prank on you. We didn’t expect you to send it off without even looking what was inside the box.”
At this point, her voice weakened, filled with apology: “Yu Sui went ho last night. I sent her a ssage. She ca back early this morning and left the sachet here before returning to her dorm, after seeing you still asleep. She has co to a profound realization of her mistake and will turn over a new leaf from now on.”
“…” Tang Li.
Although those two lumps of “crap” had embarrassed her last night, it was only in front of Song Baiyan, and she had never told anyone that she intended to give the sachet away. Pranks like these between classmates are actually not malicious, just ant for a bit of fun.
Her heart wasn’t so petty.
Tang Li took the sachet back and went to the bathroom to wash up.
Not long after, Wu Xuehan squeezed in with her cellphone.
“Right, Ah Li, the director of the movie Mihesha River Action that you saw at last night’s National Drama Festival, did he go too?”
Tang Li was aware of not being selected by Qi Liang in the past.
Upon hearing Wu Xuehan’s question, Tang Li had just rinsed her mouth, her lips still frothy with toothpaste. She grabbed a towel to wipe her mouth and humd lightly: “He was there, what about it?”
“He was caught by reporters for an interview when he was leaving.” Wu Xuehan tapped on her cellphone screen and looked up to tell Tang Li: “Directors from the movie sector rarely attend TV drama award ceremonies. He suddenly turned up at the National Drama Festival, and when the reporters asked him what for, he was quite arrogant and said bluntly he was there to choose his movie’s leading actress.”
After hearing this, Tang Li’s motion of hanging the towel paused, and she turned to look in the mirror at Wu Xuehan, who continued: “Then the reporters asked if he had found anyone, and he nodded seriously, but when asked who it was, he refused to say more.”
