After turning off the computer, Sang Tianen went to the bathroom to wash his face, applied some skin care products and prepared to go to bed.
Not long after she lay down, her cell phone suddenly rang. She frowned and took the phone from the bedside table. She took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was Zhou Feiyu. Why was she calling at this time?
"Hello?" Sang Tianen lay flat on the bed, his eyes half closed, his voice lazy and filled with deep fatigue.
Zhou Feiyu was currently on a huge cruise ship cutting through the waves. The scorching sun of Houhai was pouring down on her. Her beige linen shirt was filled with sea breeze, and her long black hair was flying.
She leaned lazily against the railing, a half-burned light brown cigar held between her slender fingers, and her narrow eyes under her sunglasses were focused on a point on the distant sea level, as if staring at it, or looking at it meaninglessly.
"Asleep?" Zhou Feiyu raised her chin and took a puff of cigarette, her tone as gentle as ever, like the whispers between lovers.
"Sister, it's already half past eleven. Am I going to steal instead of sleeping?" Sang Tianen replied speechlessly, closing his eyes completely.
Zhou Feiyu paused in her smoking motion, raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Is it very late? Sorry, I'm on vacation in Houhai and forgot the time difference with China."
"Are you here to provoke me in the middle of the night?" Sang Tianen said unhappily, "You damn rich second generation!"
Zhou Feiyu chuckled softly and started coughing because there was still excess smoke in her mouth.
"You old man, please smoke less." Sang Tianen heard her cough and advised helplessly, "Do you know how difficult it is to be born into this family?"
"Thank you, Sangsang, for your concern." Zhou Feiyu took another drag on her cigarette and said calmly, "I'm used to it. I can't quit."
Sang Tianen was too lazy to persuade her. After all, she herself was also a smoker, but she didn't smoke a lot. She would only smoke a cigarette symbolically to relieve her emotions when she was in a bad mood.
"Okay, now that we've finished catching up, it's time to tell me what brought you to this point in the night?"
According to Sang Tianen's understanding of Zhou Feiyu, this person would never do anything without benefit, and would not come to her without a reason. The fact that he called her so late must mean that he had something important to tell her.
Sure enough, after she asked this question, Zhou Feiyu was silent for a few seconds, and slowly said: "She came out." The smoke at her fingertips was torn by the sea breeze into the depths of the ocean.
Sang Tianen's body suddenly stiffened. The word "she" exploded like a thunder in her ears, causing her to open her eyes suddenly. After a long time, she said expressionlessly, "Yeah." No emotion could be heard.
This reaction made Zhou Feiyu stunned. She chuckled a few times and said, "Is that the reaction?"
"Then what reaction do you want from me?" Sang Tianen asked, "Have you been looking for someone to keep an eye on her?"
Zhou Feiyu touched the corner of her lips that was tickled by her hair and smiled faintly: "What nonsense are you talking about? It's just that a friend happened to know and told me."
"What a coincidence?" Sang Tianen didn't believe this man's nonsense at all.
Zhou Feiyu obviously knew she couldn't fool Sang Tianen, but she didn't plan to explain anything. Her eyes darkened as she stared into the distance, but her voice became light and airy: "Sangsang, you're too soft-hearted."
Sang Tianen paused for a few seconds and smiled bitterly: "So what if you're not soft-hearted? The whole family is kneeling in front of you, what can you do?"
"That's why I said you're too soft-hearted, Sangsang." Zhou Feiyu took a drag on her cigarette and slowly exhaled. "Being soft-hearted is your most fatal flaw. It allows some people to hurt you unscrupulously, because they won't pay any price. All they need to do is wag their tails and beg for mercy, shed a few crocodile tears, and you'll forgive everything they do."
Sang Tianen fell silent. She admitted that she was indeed rather fussy and indecisive on some issues. She always felt that people were complex and multifaceted, with both pure and dark sides.
When the evil of human nature prevails, she is an evil person; otherwise, she is a good person.
One thought is hell, one thought is heaven, that’s how it is.
So for those who didn't make mistakes based on principle, she would give them a chance. Just like her brother Sang Muyang, she had been waiting for him to be honest, but what she got was this ending...
"I have to say, you are right most of the time." Sang Tianen said dejectedly.
Seeing Sang Tianen's mood getting heavy, Zhou Feiyu changed the subject and teased, "Of course, this is also your most attractive feature."
Sang Tianen chuckled: "Although it is a comforting word, it makes me feel comfortable listening to it."
Zhou Feiyu smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth. If you were a boy, I would marry you."
"If you were a boy, I definitely wouldn't like you, so you wouldn't cheat on me every now and then."
The two of them laughed at the same time. After laughing, Sang Tianen asked, "Aren't you working on that game company with Lin Qiao recently? How do you still have time to go on vacation?"
Zhou Feiyu turned around, flicked the ash off her cigarette, and said with a smile: "Do you think everyone is like you, having money but not knowing how to enjoy it?"
Sang Tianen was choked by her and was speechless. The noise of waves and cruise ships came to his ears. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind, and he said, "Hey, I remember your family has a yacht rental company on Shendao Island. Do you have the contact information of the business manager for me?"
"Have you figured it out?" Zhou Feiyu teased, "I'll have the business manager contact you later."
"Can we contact them now?" Sang Tianen said, "I want to take my boyfriend to Shendao tomorrow. It's urgent. I can pay more."
Zhou Feiyu paused, half tilted her head back, thought for two seconds, and said, "Sangsang, are you kidding me?"
"Are you kidding?" Sang Tianen asked in confusion.
"Didn't you say you were a bachelor? When did you get a boyfriend? Or is my memory flawed?"
Sang Tianen chuckled: "You're not mistaken, but that was all in the past. Now I want to fall in love and get married, is that not okay?"
Zhou Feiyu was a little depressed. When they were in college, Sang Tianen had agreed with her that they would not get married together. However, after only a few years, he wanted to fall in love and get married. Doesn't he have any integrity at all?
"Sangsang, I remember you vowed to live alone until the end of your life, saying that men would only slow down your sword-drawing speed, that lust is emptiness, and that so-called love is just hormones at work, and that spending money on men would bring you lifelong bad luck..."
Seeing that Zhou Feiyu was about to reveal her past, Sang Tianen immediately interrupted her in frustration: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Are you jealous of me? I asked you for a number and you kept complaining. How much money did I make with you in school? You should have some conscience, Xiaoyuzi."
Zhou Feiyu: “…”
