"It's over?" Liang Shiyin, who had returned to normal, went up to them as he watched the three of them walk out of the studio. "Then let's go eat."
"Didn't I give you a bento just now?”Liang Xinyan looked at him from the side.
"I didn't eat." Liang Shiyin walked in front of Cheng Fengshu. "Are you hungry? However, there are fewer people in the restaurant at this time. I'll send you back after eating.”
"No need." Cheng Fengshu shook his head and took the initiative to pull away.
She didn't want him to affect her life yet.
Liang Shiyin quickly realized that something was wrong with her and chased after her.
"Don't be like this. You should be hungry, right?”She didn't know if she had eaten in the morning. It wasn't good for her to stay until the afternoon.
"I'll settle it myself." Cheng Fengshu's expression was even colder than when they didn't know each other. "Don't worry about me."
Liang Shiyin stopped in his tracks and sized up her back.
What had he done? But wasn't she fine before she entered the studio just now? And she didn't look like she was angry at him for saying something boring. It was more like…a subconscious act of resistance, but what was she resisting? He didn't do anything too overboard.
"When she was in there, she was in a daze the whole time. She was manipulated and did not react. She did not even protest when I made her into a cute pink Barbie.”Liang Xinyan shrugged. "Are you going to tell me that this is a special situation that you created to make my work go smoothly?”
"Did she say anything?" Liang Shiyin was also confused. He needed some clues to make a guess.
"Didn't I just say that I would stay here from the beginning to the end?”Liang Xinyan glanced at him. "What's wrong? Wasn't he fine just now?”
From her perspective as a bystander, there was indeed something interesting between the two of them. However, looking at Cheng Fengshu's rejection just now, it seemed like they had returned to the beginning.
Liang Shiyin shrugged.
"Do you need my help?" After all, they were siblings, so Liang Xinyan wouldn't be so ruthless.
Liang Shiyin shook his head. "I'm leaving first. Call me if you need anything.”
He patted his sister and chased after her.
Liang Xinyan watched him leave and shrugged, waving her hand meaningfully.
"I wish you luck." I've done my part. Let's go for afternoon tea.
After walking out of Yunrong Lane, Cheng Fengshu looked up at the sun. The afternoon sun was indeed very bright. She couldn't help but choose a dark place to walk.
She followed the crowd aimlessly through the streets of Taipei City. The heat made her hide in the chain record store at the side and just like that, she remembered that ever since she agreed to work at Yunrong Workshop, she rarely went out to stroll. Naturally, she did not " restock ".
Looking at the newly released album on the shelf, she immersed herself in the world of music and temporarily forgot about those annoying thoughts. She focused on reading the album introduction and searched for the music that she was interested in.
When she arrived at the movie soundtracks area, she suddenly remembered the " IamSam " that she had been paying attention to not long ago. As expected, she saw it on the upright wall, but it was placed on the top floor.
She sighed slightly and tried her best to stand on her tiptoes. Her target was the movie's original sound track that was less than a centimeter away from her fingertips.
Just a centimeter away!
Just as she was about to give up and leave, a hand suddenly appeared behind her and easily took the movie's original track and handed it to her.
Cheng Fengshu didn't take it. He turned around quickly and met a pair of gentle eyes.
For a moment, the two of them looked at each other quietly. Neither of them spoke.
Liang Shiyin didn't understand what she was thinking, but he had an ominous feeling that if he didn't handle this matter well, the future development would be rather troublesome. Moreover, his goal of getting close to her seemed to be impossible to achieve.
He was very worried and afraid. He didn't understand her well enough, and he didn't have any weight in her heart. What he should do was a difficult problem for him.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Fengshu asked the question in his heart.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Looking deeply at the helplessness on her face, Liang Shiyin could only hide the disappointment in his heart and put on a normal smile. "I just want you to be happy.”
Cheng Fengshu lowered his head and did not answer.
"What's wrong? Are you still angry?" Liang Shiyin waited anxiously for her answer.
Cheng Fengshu bit her lower lip. She just couldn't make up her mind to reject his gentle treatment. Seeing his caution and thinking of his gentle smile, she felt her determination waver.
She had clearly decided not to let him get close to her and not let him affect her. However, when he stood in front of her, she could not muster up the determination to do so and gradually forgot her decision.
She did not know what was wrong with her, but she was not used to this side of her.
"Feng Shu?" Liang Shiyin gathered his courage and held her hand. "Even if you're angry, you have to eat. I'll bring you to find something to eat.”
He was touched. Holding her small hand, Liang Shiyin's feeling could only be described with one word. Although he wanted to hold her in his arms more, it was better than nothing. Besides, he really needed some real encouragement. Otherwise, it would be difficult for his broken heart to continue the next wave of attacks.
Cheng Fengshu closed his eyes, not knowing how to face all of this.
"At least say something." Liang Shiyin bent down to look at her face, not wanting to speak to the top of her head. "Shall we go eat? You should be very hungry since you left early in the morning.”
Listening to his gentle words of persuasion, Cheng Fengshu felt her determination crumbling bit by bit. She really could not refuse this gentle and good person at all.
Finally, she overturned her previous decision and decided to do it according to her current mood. She could only take it one step at a time.
"What do you want to eat?"
Liang Shiyin smiled when he heard her finally speak.
"Let's go eat Hong Kong-style tea." As long as she was willing to answer, he would have the courage.
Without letting go of her hand, Liang Shiyin brought her to the dining room.
Cheng Fengshu pretended not to notice and let him hold his hand.
As he drank tea and ate Hong Kong-style food, Liang Shiyin once again seized the opportunity. However, in view of her previous attitude and reaction, he tried his best to be careful with his words and questions.
"By the way, I never asked you how you felt when Love Hotel informed you that you were the lucky winner.”
Cheng Fengshu frowned and swallowed the Steamed Dumpling before saying,"Which magazine or television station are you representing?”It had been so long, and he was only asking now. She had long forgotten.
"I represent myself. I'm just curious.”Liang Shiyin did not hesitate to lie in order to achieve his goal. "At that time, I was overseas. I only heard about this from others, so I don't know.”
Cheng Fengshu thought for a while before saying," I don't know about the others, but I was quite happy when I received the notice. I thought to myself that I'd made a fortune and was really looking forward to what the special gift they were talking about was. But when I found out, I just wanted to smash that restaurant.”
"You don't like it." Liang Shiyin could understand this. Otherwise, she wouldn't be selling shoes.
"Of course, why would you give me something that's not practical at all? It's better to give me money.”Even though the matter had passed, Cheng Fengshu's view was still the same as before.
"Anyway, you've realized it in the end.”To be honest, he was very grateful for the pair of glass shoes.
"That's why I don't complain so much." Cheng Fengshu shrugged.
"Then…what about Master Jin's prophecy? You don't believe me either?" This was the main point of his question.
"I don't believe you." There was almost no need to even consider it. "What he said is too mysterious, and that condition…don't you think it's ridiculous?”
"Just for this reason?" he asked.
Cheng Fengshu put down his tea and thought about it seriously.
"Not entirely." She sipped her tea. "But I don't think you can judge a person's happiness with just one sentence. Happiness is not that simple.”
"Maybe you're thinking too complicated.”
"Probably, but I really think so.”Cheng Fengshu insisted. "Don't you think that happiness is actually a very difficult thing? Oh, you shouldn't say that." She suddenly shook her head. "It should be said that it's very difficult for two people to find happiness together. It's better to be relaxed and free alone. Isn't it very comfortable to do whatever one likes?”
Yes, that should be the case. It was much better to be alone.
"But won't you be lonely?" Liang Shiyin looked at her and seemed to vaguely know the reason for her abnormality. But how was he going to solve this problem?
She must have had this idea for a long time. How could he convince her?
"Lonely?" Cheng Fengshu paused. "Maybe, but it can save a lot of trouble.”
Sometimes, a person's life would feel empty, but she had movies, music, and many books to accompany her. These could easily divert her occasional loneliness.
Liang Shiyin looked at the faint confusion on her face and smiled even more gently.
"Have you ever thought that in life, you need another person you care about to be perfect?”At least, that was what he thought. "Perhaps there will be arguments between the two of them, but there will also be sweetness. Perhaps it was not absolute happiness, but they could support each other, take care of each other, care for each other, make you laugh, and make you angry on normal days.”
Cheng Fengshu did not say anything because she instinctively thought of him.
Was that so? Was he the one in her life?
"It's true that living alone is very comfortable, but isn't it a little boring? Perhaps you have many things that can help you pass time, but no matter what, those are things that have no life and can't talk to you or communicate with you.”
Cheng Fengshu could not answer, and her thoughts were in a mess again.
Was that so? Would two people be better than one? Really?
A series of question marks danced in her mind, making her unable to find an answer for a moment.
"Don't worry." Although he was very anxious to " correct " her mindset and clear a path for his future, he really felt sorry for her like this.
"Think about it when you have time."
Cheng Fengshu lifted his head and looked at his usual gentleness. He pursed his lips.
Who was the other half of his life?
Suddenly, she was interested in this answer, but she would never ask.
Looking at her pure eyes, Liang Shiyin really wanted to pour his heart out to her. He was about to go crazy from holding it in. His fondness for her grew with each passing day, but her reaction was not as he had expected. He could only stand still and slowly found it hard to endure. Everything in front of him could no longer satisfy him.
This was not all he wanted! How he wished that he could express his feelings directly, how he wished that she could accept his feelings and repay him. He did not ask for equal treatment, he only hoped that she would have him in her heart.
Was this also a luxury?
His rationality and emotions were at war again, and he was suffering.
Someone save him!
After saying goodbye to Liang Shiyin, Cheng Fengshu returned home and fell into deep thought again.
Liang Shiyin was so gentle to her, so protective and caring. He could not just be called gentle. He was quite tolerant of her.
Why did he treat her so well? To put it bluntly, she was just a part-time employee at his sister's press conference.
She wasn't close to him, nor did she have any friendship with him, but his special care for her was quite obvious. She knew how good he was to her.
However, she was afraid. She was afraid of this kind of care that she could not think of a reason for, as well as uncontrollable uneasiness.
She closed her eyes and thought of his smile, his every move, his gentleness, his tolerance, and everything he had done for her. But when would all of this end?
She was not used to all of this. Not at all. Her life was disrupted, and her understanding was overturned. She did not like it.
She didn't want a life that she had no confidence in and couldn't control.
She didn't want to have such a strange habit. It would make her gradually become dependent on him. Then, she would involuntarily care about him. In the end, she would return to the situation she had in the past.
She didn't want it, she didn't want it to be like this.
She didn't want his gentleness and tolerance.
She did not want to get used to his existence. She did not want him to appear in her life…
After tossing and turning the entire night without a good sleep, Cheng Fengshu woke up early, which was rare.
She looked outside and felt an invisible pressure in the quiet room. It almost suffocated her. She couldn't sit still and changed her clothes. She decided to go out for a walk.
Downstairs, she subconsciously searched his car and his body. When she realized what she had done, she laughed at herself.
How could he appear at this time? It wasn't like he had telepathy.
Therefore, everything that happened before was really just a coincidence.
It turned out that it was really just a coincidence.
She stood there silently, then shrugged and shook her head. She wanted to shake off the worries in her head and relax herself in this city that she was attached to but could not love deeply.
In the afternoon, Liang Shiyin stepped into Yunrong Lane alone. The serious expression on his face frightened the shop assistants. Someone hurriedly called the office to inform the person-in-charge.
Liang Xinyan walked out of the office after receiving the secret report and saw Liang Shiyin looking around as if he was looking for something.
"Looking for someone?" Liang Xinyan leaned against the door frame with a curious expression.
"Is Feng Shu here?" Liang Shiyin didn't chat with his sister and asked directly.
"I don't see anyone. What's wrong? Aren't you usually the one who picks her up?" Liang Xinyan was infected by her brother's anxious expression and started to get nervous.
"I didn't receive anyone."
He arrived at her house at the usual time. When he didn't see her just now, he felt that something was wrong and called her. Only then did he realize that she wasn't at home at all.
"How could that be? Didn't she tell you where she was going?”Could he have gone missing? At the thought of this, even Liang Xinyan's expression became serious.
There was less than a week left before the presentation. What if the main character disappeared? What fun would there be?
"If there is, I don't need to rush."
He had gone upstairs to ring the doorbell. He thought that she must have gone out. Otherwise, no one would have answered the door.
But where would she go?
She didn't mention this at all during dinner yesterday. Could it be an emergency?
Liang Shiyin paced around like an ant on a hot pan.
"What do we do now?" Liang Xinyan was also anxious.
Liang Shiyin lowered his head and didn't say anything. If he knew what to do, he would have done it long ago. Why would he be in such a hurry?
The only way now was to wait.
Let's see if she will show up in the shop by herself.
Unable to hide the worry and uneasiness in his heart, Liang Shiyin kept walking back and forth in the shop, unable to relax at all.
Liang Xinyan was also nervous because of him. She quickly ordered the staff downstairs to immediately arrest…no, inform the upstairs as soon as they saw Cheng Fengshu.
Strange, where could she have gone?#
