The large round table that can accommodate sixteen people dining at the same time is filled with plates of dishes of different colors. It is a typical feature of a star-rated hotel. The more upscale the place, the more exquisite everything from the texture of the plates to the selection of ingredients is.
I always like to use half or even less than half of the space on a large plate to serve dishes, and the rest is decorated with various carvings.
Coupled with the decoration in the room, An Ning felt that it was not like eating, but like attending a boutique exhibition. However, because of the person sitting opposite, An Ning was even more uninterested.
When she thought about what happened in Shengjing, she felt a little frightened.
In contrast, Tang Shaoyan didn't seem to notice it, taking turns picking up a chopstick for each plate, with a happy and contented expression, as well as his sexy eating attitude that was obviously too deliberate, and his occasional...
The corners of her peach blossom eyes are slightly raised.
An Ning sneered coldly in her heart. Damn it, is the emperor trying to flatter Yunlu, or is the imperial concubine trying to flatter her?
"You really don't want to eat?" Tang Shaoyan said politely.
"Thank you." An Ning replied calmly.
Tang Shaoyan curled up his lips as if he didn't take it seriously, and suddenly said with some humor, as if he was joking: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."
"Mr. Tang is overly concerned. It's really just because I've already had dinner," An Ning replied.
However, Tang Shaoyan seemed to be persevering and said: "The Beijing flavor here is more authentic than any other hotel in Shengjing. Are you sure you don't want to try it?"
"I am an authentic Tongcheng person." An Ning said.
"That's a pity." Tang Shaoyan said, showing a rather regretful look, and continued: "Miss An, oh no, it should be Mrs. Jiang. From what you say, you have no intention of following Jiang Lichuan in Beijing.
What does it mean to live here permanently?”
"Thank you, Mr. Tang, for your concern. His career focus is currently on Tongcheng."
"Tongcheng is the root of the Jiang family, but the future of the Jiang family is not here."
After Tang Shaoyan finished speaking, he gave An Ning a meaningful look.
An Ning just replied expressionlessly and politely: "Mr. Tang can discuss this issue alone with Jiang Lichuan another day if he has time."
"What you are implying is that you will follow Jiang Lichuan wherever he goes?"
"There is an old saying that when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, follow the dog. There is a river and a river between Tongcheng and Shengjing. People in Tongcheng like to eat hot and sour food, while people in Shengjing have a lighter taste and tend to be sweet, especially meat dishes.
But I can still eat it, but... I don’t like it, that’s all.”
Tang Shaoyan smiled and said, "Jiang Lichuan should teach you two things. One is the survival of the fittest, and the other is to act within your capabilities."
An invisible sense of depression began to creep in the confined space.
An Ning raised her chin slightly, "It's just a pity that he said these two principles can be ignored for Mrs. Jiang."
Tang Shaoyan's beautiful peach blossom eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, "Then I really look forward to Mrs. Jiang's colorful future."
"Then I'll borrow Mr. Tang's golden words. I have to work hard to achieve the four words 'rich and colorful'."
"You're welcome." After Tang Shaoyan finished speaking, he added, "What do you want to drink?"
An Ning frowned, and Tang Shaoyan said again: "I don't want to eat or drink. It seems that Mrs. Jiang misunderstands me very deeply!"
Is it a misunderstanding? Is it a misunderstanding?
If she could, An Ning really wanted to shove plate after plate of food onto his beautiful face and give him a colorful, oily, salty, soy and vinegar treat!
But the reality is...
"A glass of warm boiled water, thank you."
Tang Shaoyan's lips raised again.
Warm boiled water was brought and An Ning took a sip to moisten her throat.
At this time, Tang Shaoyan suddenly said: "I don't know what happened today, but I suddenly remembered a lot of things from my childhood. You may not know that our family and the Jiang family used to live in the same compound.
The difference from the back row, I still remember that when I first saw Jiang Lichuan in the courtyard, they started fighting. But don’t get me wrong, it was not a fight, but two groups of people dug two ditches and fought to imitate the scenes on TV.
, using mud balls as grenades.”
After saying that, Tang Shaoyan paused and smiled.
Under the gorgeous light, whether it was an illusion or something, An Ning noticed that a green light suddenly bloomed in Tang Shaoyan's usually brown-black eyes.
This scene made An Ning feel familiar, but she couldn't remember when she had seen it before.
While she was thinking about it, Tang Shaoyan continued: "Later, we got to know each other more and more. For a while, I often went to his house to eat, and even shared a bed with him.
I slept there, haha..."
Tang Shaoyan said and smiled again, "You must find it very incredible, but this is the fact. It's just that if you add two words in front of it, in the past, if you think about it now, it seems like a lie.
I don’t know why I suddenly remembered that even in Shengjing, few people know that Jiang Lichuan and I were childhood friends. Maybe it’s because of the child I suddenly saw in Lanting this morning!"
The topic suddenly turned to Mo Fei and Jiang Lichuan's childhood. Could it be that seeing Mo Fei made Tang Shaoyan, the entertainment tycoon of Country A, think that he himself also had a childhood?
Is it so emotional?
If this were the case, there would be too many brats of Mo Fei's age running around the streets. Wouldn't Tang Shaoyan be reminiscing about his childhood all the time?
Pull it off!
An Ning sensed that Tang Shaoyan suddenly mentioned these things for no reason, but she thought that mentioning it was just a strategy he used to package and modify, confuse the public and win people's trust, but she didn't expect that Tang Shaoyan
Suddenly said: "I think there must still be a photo of Jiang Lichuan taken when he was seven or eight years old in the current house of the Jiang family. He looked similar to the little boy in Lanting. At first glance, I thought
Time has gone back!"
An Ning immediately frowned and replied: "There is a movie in the United States called "Born to Match", which tells the story of how a pair of twin sisters brought their divorced parents together. Later, a country in the East introduced the copyright and adapted it into a TV series.
The names of the two girls in a pair of sisters differed only by one word, so I and almost all the viewers thought they were twins who were chosen to play the leading roles. But in the end, in a variety show, the show crew revealed the truth.
The truth is, it turns out that these two girls are not sisters at all, nor are they related by blood. They just coincidentally look alike, and their names happen to differ by just one letter.
There was also a very famous couple on that campus when I was a freshman. Anyone who has met them will never forget it, not because they walked hand in hand almost every day, but because they looked like each other.
Male and female replicas, at first they thought they were brother and sister, and they thought it was some mysterious incident such as taboo. Finally, I realized that before they entered University B, they were completely separated from each other and belonged to two different worlds. Their ancestors had lived for eight lifetimes.
I can't find any relationship by marriage, and there is no blood relationship at all."
After finishing speaking, An Ning paused, and finally said conclusively: "There is everything in the world."
"I agree with this statement, but there is one thing that makes me very curious. You gave two examples in a row. Are you trying to convince me or yourself?"
Faced with what Tang Shaoyan meant, An Ning just said: "Mr. Tang, I'm just telling you that it's just a child. His father, Aunt Mo's son, had already died in an accident, and his mother
He has also disappeared. If this is the purpose of your invitation to have dinner with me tonight, then this can really be saved. Don't involve the disputes in the adult world to an innocent child."
Tang Shaoyan didn't answer, just sneered and asked: "Have you never doubted it once?"
"If Mr. Tang is really curious, you can hire a private detective to check it out. But if you have this time, you might as well fly back to Shengjing to spend some time with your fiancée. I've heard some things. If it's true,
If so, then now is the time when she needs you most."
As soon as An Ning finished speaking, Tang Shaoyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the sharp light suddenly appeared, but the smile on his lips was still there, but the smile was already very cold, and anyone within three feet could get frostbite.
"Mrs. Jiang has reminded me of something. I want to go back, but as the saying goes, the person who untied the bell must tie the bell. Miss Xia is unwilling to do this for me, and there is nothing I can do about it. After all, the reason why my fiancée committed suicide is...
Miss Xia has contributed a lot!"
"What does this have to do with Xia Chu?"
"Good question. You can go back and ask her. Ask her what she did to make my fiancée suddenly want to commit suicide."
"When Mr. Tang attributes the crux of the problem to others, should you also include yourself in the consideration? I don't know who said it, or I accidentally saw it somewhere.
, roughly speaking, whether a woman's emotional experience is tragic or not depends on her man's attitude towards her. If a man cares about her, he will never let other women come between them."
"As for the word loyalty, Mrs. Jiang might as well take a class with Jiang Lichuan if she has time."
An Ning pulled the corners of her lips and smiled, "Thank you, Mr. Tang, for reminding me. He is on a business trip and calls his home phone at a fixed time every day to listen to my lessons. It's time for me to go back. Thank you for your hospitality. If you have anything else to do, why not
Another day, I won’t disturb you and continue your meal.”
After saying that, An Ning picked up her bag and stood up.
Tang Shaoyan did not stop him, he just sat there, raised his chin slightly, and said to An Ning very politely, "It seems that I have made you feel unhappy. As compensation, I will give you a small gift later. I hope it can be okay."
A little bit to make you happy, good night, Mrs. Jiang."
"Good night." An Ning replied in a smooth voice.
She was not interested in the small gift from Tang Shaoyan, she just wanted to leave here quickly. However, when her hand just touched the doorknob, she suddenly felt a violent dizziness in her brain.
Behind her, in the exquisitely carved European-style chair, Tang Shaoyan was holding a glass of red wine, gently twitching the corners of his lips and raising a strange smile.
