Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Skills
Most people usually feel very bad after a hangover, but Tang Ningyue is an exception.
When Tang Ningyue opened her eyes due to the sunlight, she was still lying on the sofa, covered with a quilt, with a pillow under her head, her hair was scattered and neatly gathered to one side, and her legs... were held in someone's arms.
Looking down, she saw an extremely beautiful face not far away from her.
It was not uncommon to wake up and see a handsome man's face, but usually that face would be on the side of her pillow, where she could kiss him if she tilted her head slightly. At this moment, it was too conservative.
Li Jinglang was sitting at the end of the sofa, leaning back, still maintaining his sitting posture. The sunlight reflected on his jaw, leaving a shadow on his side face. Tang Ningyue looked at him carefully and suddenly realized that he was indeed good-looking. Even several artists in her company who had already debuted and became famous could not compare to him.
However, Li Jinglang cannot be an artist. He has a strange personality and cannot coax women, so he cannot earn this money.
Tang Ningyue clicked her tongue regretfully, waking up the man who was lightly sleeping beside her.
Li Jinglang was a very light sleeper and had a very good sleeping posture. He was the most well-behaved man she had ever seen when sleeping. He would not move around or touch anyone else. He could sleep until dawn in one position, even if it was such an awkward one.
"Are you awake?" Tang Ningyue had returned to her previous state, no longer looking drunk as she did last night. She propped up her head and looked at him. She looked energetic and appeared to be well taken care of.
"....." Li Jinglang turned his head to look at her, and through his sore eyes he saw that she was full of energy, and she was completely different from the person she was last night.
"Are you hungry?" she asked him again, "Shall I take you out for breakfast?"
“…”
Still no response, Li Jinglang pursed his lips, the stinging feeling came over him again, and he turned his gaze to her again.
Tang Ningyue had already laid down again and started fiddling with her phone. Her attention had shifted to choosing a location for breakfast, and she didn't care at all about the changes in the man in front of her.
Rather than caring about him, she was more concerned about what to eat to warm her stomach when she was hungover.
"Do you want to eat crab roe buns?" She asked while scrolling through her phone. She turned over and found a comfortable position to continue lying down. Her legs moved back and forth in his arms, making his already untidy shirt even more wrinkled. She was not polite at all.
Without waiting for his reply, Tang Ningyue continued to ask him persistently.
"What about white curry noodles? Do you want some?"
"Want to eat something light?"
"Um?"
"Why aren't you talking?"
Tang Ningyue finally turned her eyes away from her phone and kicked his arm.
The feet with exquisite hand-painted nails rubbed against his exposed skin. The unobstructed contact made his hair stand on end and his body tense.
He didn't move, but just looked at her sideways to observe her expression. But her eyes were empty, she was only concerned about breakfast.
What you eat, you eat.
He couldn't eat at all.
"What's wrong?" Tang Ningyue frowned slightly as she saw him looking depressed.
It's hard to guess what's going on.
She never paid much attention to a man's inner world; it was a waste of her time.
He glanced at her again, and Tang Ningyue remained silent. It was obvious that she would not deal with the matter or explain.
The silent silence made Li Jinglang furious.
"You kissed me last night."
Finally unable to bear it any longer, Li Jinglang said this with his head down, his voice hoarse and a little aggrieved.
“.....”
He didn't want to bring up this matter. He couldn't sleep last night. Tang Ningyue kept asking for water and wiping her face, and didn't let him talk. She kept him awake until midnight and then she fell asleep. He only managed to sleep for a while when it was almost dawn.
His mind was in a mess all night. He was afraid that she would regret what she had done impulsively the next night when she woke up. He thought of many answers and rehearsed them in his mind many times just to comfort her when she confessed the next day.
If she apologized, he would definitely tell her that he didn't blame her.
If, he meant if, she kissed him out of other feelings, then he... would be willing to give her anything. It didn't hurt him, and it wasn't forced. He was willing and it was voluntary.
However, the development of the situation was completely different from his expectations. He didn't know whether Tang Ningyue had forgotten what happened yesterday or simply didn't take it seriously. In short, she had put last night behind her and the person she couldn't let go of became him.
She didn't think of this as something that needed to be explained or taken responsibility for. It was as normal as picking up a cup to drink water and a bowl to eat. It was good enough that she didn't ask him to be grateful to her. After all, she usually picked out the tableware when eating and drinking water.
She doesn't use all kinds of tableware, nor does she kiss everyone.
It’s a pity that Li Jinglang couldn’t understand her bullshit rules at all. He only knew that she kissed him when she was drunk, and now she turned against him after waking up.
There were bloodshot eyes under Li Jinglang's eyes, and he looked exhausted. His collar was wide open with only a few buttons fastened. His clothes were covered in messy wrinkles from her tormenting him last night. His head was slightly lowered, and he looked like he had been abused by her.
Tang Ningyue's head has grown big.
The last time this happened was after she had a one-night stand with an ABC. He pestered her for a formal relationship, and Tang Ningyue tried many ways to get rid of him.
She could barely remember some of what happened last night. At this moment, the wound on Li Jinglang's mouth caused by her bite was exposed in front of her, and she had no way to escape.
I just bit him twice...
Tang Ningyue opened her mouth, raised her neck, and pursed her lips. She didn't know how to explain it to him. It was just a small matter, why was he harping on it? That little wound looked like it was almost healing...
I hate having anything to do with this kind of naive boy.
trouble.
Li Jinglang took in all her little actions, and he accepted her attitude of not wanting to care or explain. The excuses he had thought of last night now seemed particularly ridiculous. He actually wanted to make excuses for her despite her attitude.
For the first time, he didn't want to suffer this loss again.
"Have you forgotten?"
"Still don't want to remember?"
He stared at her with an unyielding look that surprised Tang Ningyue. In front of her, as long as she showed him a good face, no matter how angry he was, he would quickly run over and continue to follow her. No matter how she bullied and tormented him, as long as she was willing to coax him, he would definitely turn around and come back.
She wanted to get over it, but for the first time he didn't agree with her.
"No." Tang Ningyue sat up, pulled her legs back and knelt on the sofa. She leaned over to him, cupping his face with her hands and pretending to observe him. "Did I hurt you? I'll find you some medicine to apply, okay?"
She shifted her focus and took things in another direction.
Li Jinglang looked at her fake appearance and couldn't help but feel angry. His breathing was trembling. She always made him lose control and his emotions fluctuate. "When you are drunk, you just kiss people casually, right?"
He seemed to never be able to calm down in front of her, like a madman. He didn't know whether it was her problem or he himself was sick.
"Anyone can do it, right?"
Tang Ningyue's hands holding his face froze, the expression on her face froze for a moment, and alarm bells rang in her mind.
She finally met someone more difficult than the previous one, a man she couldn't get rid of by blocking him, deleting him, or not meeting him.
More troublesome than a ghost.
Tang Ningyue really regretted it. Her friends had clearly said they would make the call for her, but she insisted on getting drunk and dialing the number herself. Now, she was in trouble.
"Yesterday... yes, it was my fault. I dialed the wrong number, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get you..."
Obviously this was not the explanation Li Jinglang wanted. The more she talked, the more annoyed he became. His face turned dark and he interrupted her.
"Who are you going to call?"
"Sheng Shiyang?"
“.....”
"That's right." Li Jinglang laughed at himself. "If the person last night was Sheng Shiyang, you wouldn't have to bother making excuses here. He should have gone to have breakfast by now..."
"Are you really hungry, Tang Ningyue?"
The sarcastic attitude finally annoyed her. Tang Ningyue let go of her hand and said in annoyance, "I was drunk yesterday. Do you have to make such a big deal out of it?"
"What happened if I kissed you?"
"It's not the first time I kissed you."
"Why are you reacting so strongly?"
"What do you want?"
As the victim, Li Jinglang actually gave in to her series of questions. For some reason, this kind of confrontation always occurred between the two of them. He was obviously a person who didn't care about or talk about things big or small, and she was obviously always kind to others in public.
But it just so happens that when two people get together, they are always at loggerheads.
As soon as he met her, he seemed like a different person.
“…”
Tang Ningyue didn't want to pay attention to him and had already gotten up to wash up. Li Jinglang was still stunned on the sofa, with her thigh, where her foot had rested, still retaining her warmth. He stared out the window, shook his head and sighed, and the loose hair on his forehead rolled down again, covering his eyes.
Tang Ningyue always felt that she used to be a very irritable person, but she became much more stable in the following years. A big part of the reason was that she kept an attitude of ignoring idiots. As a result, there were fewer things that made her angry, and she became less impatient.
Or maybe, she didn't take these things seriously at all.
It's no big deal at all.
If you take things seriously, they will become serious.
So after just a few minutes, she calmed down her anger, put on some music and started doing her skin care in front of the dressing table, as if the argument just now was not as serious as she just discovered that she had lost a lipstick.
She has had this ability since she was a child, it seems to be innate. I don't know whether this self-healing ability is good or bad.
When she was a child, she cried as she saw her biological mother Xu Lin off on a flight to Canada. She begged Xu Lin to take her away and said she would be good and obedient, but Xu Lin still let go of her hand and told her to follow Aunt Zhou and listen to her. Only if she treated Aunt Zhou as her mother like a daughter would she not abandon her.
Tang Ningyue cried so hard that she couldn't speak, and she was silent on the way home by Zhou Su, but that only lasted until dinner. Then she became lively and cute again, chatting with Zhou Su and saying sweet words to make her happy.
She smiled, as if the heart-wrenching tears she had just cried at the airport were just a dramatic performance. She was able to control her emotions freely and did not even take the initiative to ask to talk to Xu Lin. She quickly cut off her relationship with the Xu family.
She is really capable, everyone says so. When Zhou Su was a child, she was very busy at work and her career was just starting. She was exhausted and had no time to pay attention to the two children at home. Li Jinglang was raised by Tang Ningyue.
She read storybooks to Li Jing and coaxed him to sleep, dressed him and coaxed him to go to school, fed him and coaxed him to eat more. Zhou Su always felt that this daughter she had picked up for free was a gift from God.
Sometimes she missed Xu Lin very much, but she never took the initiative to contact Xu Lin. She was afraid that Zhou Su would be angry because she was Zhou Su's daughter now. Only when Zhou Su and Xu Lin were talking on the phone, and she was called over by Zhou Su to talk to Xu Lin, would she pick up the phone. Only when the person on the other end asked her to call someone would she glance to see if Zhou Su was paying attention to her, and then she would whisper "Mom".
She is so amazing. Li Jinglang still thinks she is amazing. This little girl can read people's expressions and can even stop contacting her mother. After going abroad, she can ruthlessly take away or throw away all her things without leaving any trace, as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth.
Whether you say she is a sycophant or quick-witted, no one has ever taught her that. It seems like she was born with the cold-blooded gene from the Xu family.
But no matter how powerful she was, Tang Ningyue was just a child at that time. No matter how capable she was, she could not disguise her character for a lifetime like she does now. Her true nature would be completely exposed in front of Li Jinglang.
In front of him, she was not a good girl, nor was she a lady with a good temper forever. She would find him annoying, and would think that he was affecting her ability to make friends. She would ignore him, but she did not really hate him completely. She just fully displayed the emotions that a normal person should have.
In front of him, she was a real living person.
Therefore, every time she quickly put her emotions behind her and returned to normal, Li Jinglang felt devastated. He would rather she be hysterical in front of him, but she would never do that again. She seemed to have completely become a disguise.
But she said that being caught up in emotions will make people become scary, people are just animals, and control is the real difference between humans and animals.
Obviously, Li Jinglang is still a wild beast that has not been tamed.
He was still calming down in the living room while Tang Ningyue was smiling and putting on makeup.
Tang Ningyue was already so angry with him that she couldn't stand it anymore, but her good mood this morning was completely brought about by a message that Sheng Shiyang had just sent.
[What do you want to eat in the morning? I'll pick you up.]
Tang Ningyue smiled, put down the lipstick in her hand, and prepared to reply.
Before he finished what he was doing, another figure appeared in the dressing mirror in front of him. The person was still wearing the clothes he wore last night, and his expression wasn't as gloomy as before, as if he had comforted himself.
Li Jinglang, who was forgotten in the living room by her, came over at some point. Tang Ningyue ignored him as if he was the one who had made the mistake.
Because of her neglect, Li Jinglang stood at the door and knocked twice more, as if he was too anxious to stand, but he didn't dare to say anything. His long shadow on the ground seemed particularly fragile at this moment, as if it would disappear if she stepped on it twice.
Tang Ningyue glanced at him and sneered, "Are you here to attack me again?"
“........”
Li Jinglang pursed his lips, and before he could say anything, he noticed the suit she had spread out on the bed, probably something she was going to wear when going out. His anxiety increased a little, and the shadows under his feet began to sway.
In fact, Tang Ningyue's tablet fell in the living room, and the synchronized message on it was discovered by Li Jinglang. He swore that he did not intend to click on it this time, but just accidentally bumped into it, it was just an accident.
"Do you want to go out?" he asked. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. He still wanted to hear her say it in person and give him a clear understanding of the death penalty.
"What's wrong?" Tang Ningyue said sarcastically, "Do I need to report to you about what I do?"
"It's snowing outside," he said.
"I saw it." Tang Ningyue glanced out the window, then quickly turned her head away, continuing to reply to the message without taking it seriously.
"It's snowing heavily." Li Jinglang subconsciously stared at the phone in her hand with a message box popping up non-stop. His hand holding the door handle tightened, and the cold metal in his palm desperately sucked his warmth.
"I see."
"It's snowing heavily!" He suddenly became anxious and rushed over to grab her hand, but she dodged him.
"So what?" Tang Ningyue raised her voice, turned her head towards him and glared at him.
It started early this morning and it’s still not finished!
“.....”
Tang Ningyue opened the window a little for ventilation, but the wind coming through that tiny gap was almost extinguishing the remaining warmth between the two of them, making them shiver with cold.
It was really cold, and Li Jinglang's lips were stiff and purple.
She almost forgot that he had taken care of her all night last night, and no one covered him with a blanket when he fell asleep. But she was taken care of comfortably.
"What do you want to do?" Seeing his appearance, Tang Ningyue felt a little distressed, and her tone was not as aggressive as before.
"Li Jinglang, you've been going crazy all morning, haven't you?"
"I don't want you to go."
"What?"
"I saw he messaged you, don't go."
"I don't want you to go."
"Stay with me, okay?"
“Please…”
He begged her again, but this time she didn't appreciate it.
“.......”
"Li Jinglang, no one has told you."
"Don't you want to use the same trick a second time?"
