Wen Ran stopped singing and turned to look towards the door.

After seeing who it was, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Why are you here?" Wen Ran walked towards the door, feeling inexplicably scared.

Shang Jingchi was dressed in black as usual, but his hair was messy and he looked exhausted.

Ever since Wen Ran messaged him a few days ago saying that she went to Chunjiang City, he hasn't replied.

Wen Ran sent him another message during lunch yesterday, but he still didn't reply.

Wen Ran knew that he must be angry at her for leaving without saying goodbye.

Wen Ran walked over and took his hand, only to find that his hand was as cold as ice.

"The temperature is low here in Chunjiang City. You must be cold dressed like this." Wen Ran considerately held Shang Jingchi's hand in his palm, wanting to transfer the heat from his body to him.

But Shang Jingchi's hands were too big, and she couldn't cover them completely.

Shang Jingchi lowered his eyes and watched Wen Ran's every move, and finally spoke.

"Then buy me some clothes. I didn't bring any."

"Okay!" Wen Ran agreed readily and held Shang Jingchi's hand even tighter.

Shang Jingchi didn't say anything else, and most of the hostility in his body dissipated inadvertently.

Xiao Zhao packed up some small daily necessities that Wen Ran used when practicing singing.

He glanced at Wen Ran and Shang Jingchi, wondering if he should find a reason to leave.

At this time, Wen Ran was heard asking Shang Jingchi, "You haven't eaten yet, right? It's just right that we should go eat first."

Shang Jingchi said "hmm" in a faint voice.

Wen Ran turned around to look at Xiao Zhao. Before he could say anything, Xiao Zhao said, "You guys go eat yours. I'm not hungry. I'll go back first."

After saying that, Xiao Zhao ran towards the door as if he was escaping for his life, almost as fast as running.

He didn't forget to remind her, "Sister Ran, remember not to eat chili peppers!" As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared.

"Why is this girl running so fast?" Wen Ran couldn't help but complain.

Shang Jingchi pulled his hand away from Wen Ran's palm and instead grabbed Wen Ran's waist.

Wen Ran was startled by Shang Jingchi's sudden action, "What are you doing..."

Just as he said two words, his lips were blocked by Shang Jingchi.

Shang Jingchi kissed her fiercely as if punishing her, and before letting Wen Ran go, he deliberately bit her lips.

Wen Ran pushed Shang Jingchi away in pain and took two steps back. His movements were too hasty and his center of gravity was unstable, so he fell to the side.

Shang Jingchi quickly stepped forward and grabbed Wen Ran's arm, "Be careful!"

Wen Ran stood up straight, broke free from Shang Jingchi's hand, and glared at him angrily.

Her mouth felt painful and numb. She touched it and luckily the skin was not broken, but it was swollen.

Shang Jingchi disagreed. "Why are you glaring at me? You left without saying goodbye, so a bite would be the least of your trouble."

"I sent you a message, but you didn't reply." Wen Ran retorted loudly.

Shang Jingchi raised his hand and pinched Wen Ran's chin, deliberately slowing down his tone.

"You sent the text message after you got on the plane, didn't you? Because you thought I wouldn't let you come."

Wen Ran pushed Shang Jingchi's hand away, unable to refute.

Her mouth still hurt, and she didn't want her chin to swell up later.

And she didn't want to argue with Shang Jingchi because Shang Jingchi was unreasonable.

Wen Ran compromised and said, "Haven't we eaten yet? Let's go eat first."

Then he turned around and walked out of the practice room.

Shang Jingchi put his hands in his pockets and followed slowly behind, forcing Wen Ran to wait for him.

The two of them went to an ordinary health restaurant in a nearby shopping mall for dinner.

The food here is light in taste, which is suitable for Wen Ran to nourish his throat.

Wen Ran started eating as soon as the food was served. Halfway through, she heard Shang Jingchi ask her, "When are you planning to go back?"

"After New Year's Eve." Wen Ran didn't look up and continued eating.

Shang Jingchi was silent for a few seconds before he said, "I can let you go to the Spring Festival Gala in Beijing. You don't have to stay here and suffer."

Wen Ran tightened his grip on the chopsticks, feeling inexplicably irritated.

His tone was angry. "Don't you think it's too late for you to say that, Mr. Shang?"

She has arrived in Chunjiang City, signed the contract, and started rehearsals.

Now tell her that she can participate in the Spring Festival Gala in Beijing, what do you think of her?

The more Wen Ran thought about it, the angrier he became, and his face looked a little ugly.

Shang Jingchi pursed his lips and confessed, "I really don't want you to participate in these programs."

Wen Ran snorted coldly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Shang, the contract has been signed, you don't have the final say."

Wen Ran's words had a certain sarcasm in them, and Shang Jingchi almost overturned the table in anger.

The two people behind him didn't say anything else.

After dinner, Wen Ran went to the third floor of the mall, which was all men's clothing.

Shang Jingchi followed behind, not looking at the clothes, but only at Wen Ran.

Wen Ran looked at several stores in a row and finally stopped in front of a gray down jacket. He turned around and asked Shang Jingchi for his opinion.

"This down jacket is quite thick, would you like to try it?"

Shang Jingchi glanced at it and uttered a word from his thin lips, "Ugly!"

Wen Ran: “…”

Wen Ran looked at more than ten stores in a row, but Shang Jingchi didn't even want to try any of them, let alone buy anything. He kept saying:

“Ugly!”

“Tacky!”

“Poor quality!”

Wen Ran had never felt so tired during filming, so he asked directly, "Are you going to buy it or not?"

"Of course I'll buy it." Shang Jingchi deliberately emphasized, "You said you would buy it for me."

Wen Ran suppressed his anger and continued to look at the next house, while Shang Jingchi continued to follow behind.

Shang Jingchi found it very interesting to see Wen Ran wanting to get angry but not daring to get angry at him.

"I think this is pretty good. If you don't want to try it, we won't buy it." Wen Ran threw a simple black long down jacket to Shang Jingchi.

Shang Jingchi took it and actually tried it out. After trying it out, he said, for the first time ever, "It's okay."

Wen Ran breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to pay.

The two of them left the mall, and Shang Jingchi showed no intention of leaving.

Wen Ran had no choice but to ask, "Are you here on business? When do you plan to leave?"

"No!" Shang Jingchi replied indifferently.

"Have you booked a hotel yet? What time is your flight tomorrow?"

While speaking, Wen Ran was thinking about what he would be busy with tomorrow and wondering whether he should go to the airport to see Shang Jingchi off tomorrow.

Shang Jingchi took a step forward, closing the distance between him and Wen Ran, and said word by word: "I haven't booked a hotel! I'm not leaving!"

Wen Ran said, "Huh?"

"You're not leaving? Isn't your company very busy?" Wen Ran didn't understand.

Shang Jingchi turned and walked towards the main road, carrying a handbag containing a down jacket.

Wen Ran followed closely behind, and asked Shang Jingchi from behind, "How did you get here? Didn't Xu Yuan follow you?"

Shang Jingchi frowned and looked back at Wen Ran unhappily, "Why did you mention him?"

"Uh..." Wen Ran paused, "I just don't understand why you came here."

Shang Jingchi stopped immediately this time, looked into Wen Ran's eyes and said seriously: "Of course I came to find you. I will leave when you leave."
