Li Junting, who had been waiting anxiously, finally got an appointment with Shen Rongrong on this day. After dressing up carefully in the evening, she went to the appointment with great excitement.
After going around in circles for so long, I finally got to see him.
She arrived early and sat in the large box, checking her makeup with a small mirror from time to time and looking towards the door. After a long while, no one came, so she put on some lipstick and took a few deep breaths.
Finally, there was movement at the door.
Two people came in one after the other. The one in front was the short-haired Shen Rongrong, and the one behind was tall and slender with picturesque eyes and eyebrows. He was the second young master of the Huo family, Huo Yang, whom she had been thinking about day and night.
She took a look, stood up, and immediately pretended to be surprised: "It's actually you? Could you be..." She covered her mouth with her hand, looking stunned.
Shen Rongrong's reaction was very calm. She just nodded slightly to her and said nothing.
Huo Yang sneered in his heart, walked over and asked slowly: "What's wrong? Have you seen my husband?"
The two sat down opposite her. Li Junting finally recovered and said to Huo Yang with a look of confusion: "I have seen you before, several times. This is such a coincidence."
Huo Yang raised his voice: "Oh?"
Li Junting's face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but glance at Shen Rongrong for a few times, then she retracted her gaze and said to Huo Yang: "He has helped me several times. The first time I fell and sprained my ankle, he helped me up and sent me to the hospital. The second time I was in danger at night, he also appeared suddenly like a drop from the sky to save me. He is really my savior! I didn't expect to meet you today, it's such a fate!"
"Really?" Huo Yang nudged Shen Rongrong with his elbow, glaring at her with a hint of displeasure: "Why haven't I heard you mention this since you came back?"
Shen Rongrong cooperated helplessly: “It’s a small matter, there’s nothing to say.”
Huo Yang snorted coldly, and Shen Rongrong drank the water silently.
The atmosphere was a little weird. Li Junting pursed her lips, feeling secretly happy.
“That, brother-in-law…” Li Junting had just started to speak when she was interrupted by Shen Rongrong unceremoniously: “Stop, I’m not your sister, and he’s not your brother-in-law.”
You really are my sister, we are blood relatives, although I don't want to admit it. Li Junting blinked her eyes twice and asked aggrievedly: "Then how should I call him?"
"Just call me Mr. Huo."
"Oh...Okay then, Mr. Huo." Li Junting looked at Shen Rongrong's face with greedy eyes and said, "I have always wanted to thank you before. This opportunity is perfect. Treating you to a meal can be regarded as fulfilling one of my wishes."
Shen Rongrong said indifferently: “No need to worry about it all the time.”
Li Junting smiled: "Isn't this what we met? God destined me to thank you."
The ordered meals were served very quickly. Huo Yang didn’t even pick up the food by himself. He just had to open his mouth and say “Honey, I want to eat this” or “Honey, I want to eat that”.
It's not for nothing that voice actors are monsters. His expression remained unchanged, but his voice was extremely coquettish, and the ending seemed to have a wavy line. Shen Rongrong's ears were slightly red, and she patiently picked up food for him, ladled soup, and peeled shrimps.
Huo Yang took another bite and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, the shrimps peeled by my husband are indeed more delicious."
Shen Rongrong: “Then I’ll peel it for you again.”
Huo Yang said worriedly, "I don't dare to eat too much, for fear of getting fat."
“It doesn’t matter.” Shen Rongrong said in a gentle voice, “I like it whether I’m fat or thin.”
Huo Yang smiled and leaned his head against her shoulder: "My husband is so good. I love you so much!"
Shen Rongrong peeled a few more for him, and only after hearing him say he didn't want any more did she wipe her hands and start eating.
"..." Li Junting was caught off guard and was shown her face after face, and she was isolated in another world like an uninvited guest who had forced his way in. She couldn't even eat, and she felt angry and sad, as well as furious and powerless.
Her eyes were so dark that they were about to smoke. She forced a smile and said in a casual tone, "You two are so loving. I'm so enviable."
Huo Yang smiled and said, "It's not surprising. There are so many people who envy him. After all, Mr. Huo is handsome, rich, considerate, and loyal."
This is a compliment to herself, Shen Rongrong couldn't help but lower her head and pursed her lips, and smiled briefly.
Li Junting agreed meaningfully: "Yes."
Huo Yang continued, "But I'm not bad either. I'm pretty, have a good personality, strong professional skills, and I love Mr. Huo so much."
Shen Rongrong tilted her head, staring at him with her sparkling black eyes.
Huo Yang nudged her gently with his elbow: "Hey, am I right?"
Shen Rongrong smiled silently and said, “Yes.”
Huo Yang said: "It's useless to envy you. No one can take you away from me. You are mine."
"Yeah." Shen Rongrong held his hand under the table, and Huo Yang held it back, interlocking their fingers.
The sweet atmosphere between the two was so strong that Li Junting felt seriously uncomfortable. She kept poking the chopsticks in the bowl. Her chest felt like it was on fire and she had no appetite at all.
But... she was not discouraged. Few men in the world would stay with one woman forever, and young women would be more attractive to them.
For example, his father, first it was Shen Rongrong's mother, then Li Sui'an's mother, and then her mother, each one younger than the other, and still not satisfied, now he is fooling around with college students who are about her age.
But she would definitely not be willing to be like her mother, who had to endure ten years of hardship before finally getting a legitimate status.
If she does it, she will definitely be promoted directly!
The relationship between these two seems solid on the surface, but the woman is too strong and domineering, and has a bad temper. The man can't tolerate it for long. As long as she works hard, there is no marriage that cannot be destroyed.
But she doesn't have much time left, so she has to find the best time and act decisively.
Dinner was almost over and Huo Yang suggested going to the bathroom.
Before he had gone far, Li Junting's mind became active and she started to find topics to chat with Shen Rongrong.
"Oh, I forgot to ask. I saw my sister on the Internet before... Oh, how is the case of Teacher Shen being wrongly accused? She was scolded so badly."
Shen Rongrong: “The truth has come out, it has nothing to do with her.”
Li Junting breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I was worried the whole time." She frowned and said, "That woman is too much. How can she frame someone like that? But there's nothing we can do. The Internet is like this now, and Teacher Shen is a public figure, so it's inevitable that she will always be targeted. For example, I've seen rumors about Teacher Shen and male actors a few times before, and they sounded like the truth. Netizens love to spread these rumors."
Shen Rongrong paused for a moment before looking up at her: “Scandal?”
Li Junting covered her mouth and chuckled, "Yes, it's a rumor. It says that when I was shooting for a magazine, I kept wanting to find a male actor to add me on WeChat or something like that... Oh, someone must have made it up. Don't take it seriously and don't tell Teacher Shen, otherwise I'll be considered an instigator." After saying that, she stuck out her tongue, seeming a little embarrassed.
Shen Rongrong's expression was calm, her dark eyes were still, and she said firmly, "I won't take it seriously."
Li Junting's smile froze for a moment, and she lowered her head to drink a sip of water.
Feeling that someone was still staring at her, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. She said to Shen Rongrong, "I'll leave for a while too." Then she stood up, picked up her small square bag, and walked towards the bathroom.
Shen Rongrong looked at her back and shook her head silently.
