Fifty-three stars



Fifty-three stars

In the evening, Feng Chibai came on time.

But when Lin Tang followed him to the car, she suddenly stopped in confusion. She raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Why are you driving today?"

Feng Chibai didn't reply immediately. After she got in the car and fastened her seatbelt, he replied slowly, "Because I don't want to be disturbed."

Lin Tang was stunned: "Huh?"

Feng Chibai raised the corners of his lips slightly, and looked towards her, as if asking, "Do you want to go on a date?"

"Me, and you?" Lin Tang raised his eyebrows and asked uncertainly.

This word doesn't seem to be appropriate for the relationship between the two of them.

Feng Chibai hummed, apparently not finding anything wrong, and explained, "From the perspective of a normal couple, the relationship between us can be called this."

Lin Tang chuckled, rarely finding fault with his words. She lazily half-lay down, found a comfortable position, and said nonchalantly, "Whatever, I'll sleep for a while. Call me when you're here."

She has been feeling a little tired lately, so she won't miss any chance to rest.

Feng Chibai drove very steadily, and there were almost no bumps along the way that could wake her up.

When they arrived at the destination, Lin Tang's head was tilted towards him calmly, with his eyelids still closed.

He looked out the windshield at the scene outside. It seemed like a waste of time if he didn't wake her up at this hour, so he woke her up without mercy. Fortunately, the short sleep didn't let her accumulate resentment, and after waking up, her whole body felt refreshed.

She unbuckled her seat belt and was about to open the door to go out, but she found that Feng Chibai beside her was unmoved.

Just as I was about to ask him why he didn't get out of the car, I heard a voice: "Lin Tang, look ahead."

Lin Tang was puzzled, but did as he was told.

But in the moment her sight shifted, her heart trembled.

Outside the car window, the boundless sea shimmered with a jagged golden light, waves rising and falling from far and near. On the boundary between sea and sky, the half-sunken sun shone brightly, and a continuous stream of fiery clouds dyed the sky red.

There was a wave of emotion in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it. She raised her lips and asked, "Why did you think of taking me to see the sunset?"

Feng Chibai's reason was simple: "Because I want to see it, so I want you to accompany me."

Lin Tang's gaze fell on the setting sun in front of him, and he chuckled softly, "I never knew President Feng was so leisurely and carefree."

Feng Chibai was in a good mood, and didn't care how she teased him. He stretched out his long arm and grabbed a bag from the back seat. He took out two bottles of drinks and handed one to Lin Tang.

At first glance, the packaging looked like wine. Before Lin Tang even opened it, he said, "We're both driving and drinking. Is Boss Feng planning to detain me here?"

Feng Chibai just smiled and didn't reply.

But after Lin Tang opened the pull ring and took a sip, she suddenly felt something strange. She took another sip and reread the packaging before realizing it was just a carbonated drink. She secretly glanced at the person next to her and muttered, "Withdraw."

The light was gradually getting weaker, but the sea was surging more violently.

The wind is blowing.

A bad idea suddenly popped into her head, so she slowly moved her cushion back.

Feng Chibai thought she was doing this to lie more comfortably, so he didn't suspect anything.

As a result, the next second, she rolled down the car window without hesitation, and the wind outside the window rushed in and attacked Feng Chibai.

In the flickering sunlight, his hair fluttered, a little messy, but still looked very handsome.

Even though he was pranked, he didn't look angry at all, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face.

Lin Tang looked at him motionless and smiled brightly: "Boss Feng is really calm and collected, as still as a mountain. He is very handsome."

Feng Chibai finally reacted. He leaned slightly towards her. The wind was still blowing outside the window. His voice was a little lazy and light: "Is this why you rolled down the window?"

There is certainly no reason to do bad things.

So Lin Tang didn't answer his question.

After slowly rolling up the car window, she casually asked, "Someone said they wanted to watch the sunset, but the sun is almost down and there's no one taking pictures."

Feng Chibai said calmly: "I like to record with my eyes."

"Aren't you afraid of forgetting?"

“Once you experience it with your own eyes, you’ll never forget it.”

Lin Tang's interpretation of this was clearly off the mark, so she added, "What a coincidence! I also have a photographic memory. Never mind. Some people won't believe me if I tell them, and they always think others' IQ isn't as good as his."

After spending enough time with him, Lin Tang developed a knack for being sarcastic. But Feng Chibai was incredibly stable, never getting angry at him. He'd even casually retort, "Cars these days are still so outdated. You can't even fasten your seatbelt around your mouth."

Lin Tang: “…”

I glanced to the side casually and found that the small shop next to it was selling grilled sausages.

It would have been fine if she hadn't seen it, but once she saw it, her appetite was aroused. She wanted to try it, but was too lazy to get out of the car. Fortunately, she wasn't the only one in the car.

Even though he had just played a little joke on someone, he wasn't one to hold grudges, so Lin Tang cheekily pretended nothing had happened and smiled at him, "Husband? Hehe, I heard the grilled sausages sold at the beach are especially delicious."

Feng Chibai noticed the convenience store outside as soon as he arrived. Now, hearing her call him by such an intimate name, he knew she had a purpose.

He could roughly guess her purpose from her words.

Without saying anything, he opened the car door and walked towards the convenience store.

When he came back, he had a sausage in his hand.

Seeing that there was only one, Lin Tang asked, "Aren't you going to eat it?"

Feng Chibai replied: "I don't like it."

Lin Tang said "oh" and then suddenly said, "You don't think I'd be so kind as to leave you half, do you? Don't even think about it."

Although he said this, he still left a bite for him in the end. Thinking that he probably wouldn't eat it, he asked casually.

Unexpectedly, he really took it.

The daylight gradually disappeared and night gradually fell. At the intersection of night and day, a line of orange light appeared at the end of the coast, as if squeezed down by the deep blue sky, forming a straight line.

That is the terminator that symbolizes the alternation of day and night.

Some people say that the appearance of the terminator marks the arrival of dawn, the end of dusk, the cycle of day and night, and the rotation of two indistinguishable worlds.

It is also a meeting that transcends time differences.

The gifts from heaven and earth are always shocking, and people always give special meaning to these shocking scenes.

For example, some people say that if you make a wish at a shooting star, your wish will come true.

Before the terminator, people always pray to God to make them luckier.

Lin Tang was a staunch materialist, and she didn't believe any of this. But at this moment, perhaps because she had just played a trick on someone, looking at the remaining light, she couldn't help but say, "Feng Chibai, I wish you all that you wish for."

The moment the voice fell, Feng Chibai's breathing stagnated, and his fingers on the steering wheel tightened uncontrollably. After a few seconds, he smiled and said softly, "I'll give you some good wishes."

When the sun sets completely, it is time for them to go back.

Lin Tang thought of something very interesting and suddenly said, "The meteor shower at night, the sunset at dusk, what else does Mr. Feng want to see next time? Are you going to wake me up in the early morning to watch the sunrise?"

Feng Chibai took a deep breath and replied while thinking, "For some people who have trouble getting out of bed, it might be difficult to achieve. Besides, you'll probably get scolded."

He emphasized the last two words, as if that was what he was worried about.

Lin Tang heard it and retorted, "It was indeed difficult to achieve before, but now it's hard to say."

After all, she had stayed in the old house for so long that her biological clock had been forcibly modified.

"But if you really wake me up at four or five in the morning, I will never let you go!" As if she was afraid that he would really do that, she quickly added.

Feng Chibai smiled crookedly, slapped his palm on the steering wheel, and looked ahead, looking in a good mood, "Don't worry, I'm not that wicked."

There were few cars on the way back, and they sped along the empty road. Under the bright street lights, they could see buildings and cypress trees speeding past them.

The night wind continued, and the leaves swayed all the way.

She had to admit, this was the happiest she had been in a while.

The black universe and the silver-white stars, this was the first time in such a long time that she saw different colors in her life.

*

On Wen Yuting's birthday this year, the Wen family held a grand birthday party for her for the first time.

She knew clearly her parents' purpose. Many business leaders would be invited to this birthday party, and their purpose was to find a marriage partner for her.

The eldest daughter was not very happy that her parents used her birthday to set up a plan, but she couldn't make a decision. Fortunately, Wen's father gave her more choices and allowed her to invite a few of her friends.

She felt very strange that the first person she thought of was Lin Tang. What was even stranger was that she was still sure that she would not reject herself.

When the other party received the message, he agreed as she expected.

At night, Lin Tang sat on the sofa and chatted with Wen Yuting across the screen.

The original content was normal, but when I saw the latest message, the corners of my mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Yumachi: [By the way, isn’t my idol also the spokesperson for your husband’s product? Would I be honored to have my idol attend my birthday party?]

In fact, without asking, Lin Tang could guess that he would be rejected 80% of the time.

But Miss Wen was still looking forward to it, so she asked the guy next to her, "Hey, as the boss, how are your relationships with the artists you work with?"

"What?"

Feng Chibai tilted his head slightly, accidentally catching a glimpse of the content on her screen. He then calmly withdrew his gaze and replied, "This is not within the scope of the contract."

The answer was within Lin Tang's expectations, but she replied in a roundabout way: Sorry, his ability is limited.

In fact, Wen Yuting just suddenly thought of it and asked, so it was understandable that she was not agreed, but if she was agreed, she would have made a profit.

On the birthday, although Wen Yuting specifically only invited Lin Tang, she told Feng Chibai that he could come whenever he wanted, but she didn't expect that he would actually come.

But it's not surprising. After all, there were almost no acquaintances of Lin Tang who came to her birthday party. It was normal for him to follow her because he was worried that something might happen to his wife.

However, Wen's parents were quite surprised. They had invited the Feng family to come over before, but they had always found excuses to decline. They hadn't expected Feng Chibai to appear here at this moment, so they naturally thought of Wen Yuting.

The Wen family had heard that Feng Chibai had been accompanied by a woman several times when attending banquets, but they just thought it was a female companion. They thought that Wen Yuting had found a good supporter this time, so they hurried over to talk to Feng Chibai.

The two were very enthusiastic and kept talking to Feng Chibai about business matters, which made Lin Tang feel very embarrassed.

Knowing that Wen Yuting was Lin Tang's friend, Feng Chibai naturally showed some respect to the two elders and answered them politely without being humble or arrogant.

Wen Yuting did not fail to see this scene. They knew it was her birthday, but they chose to do things that benefited the Wen family instead of considering her feelings. This made her feel very uncomfortable, and she sulked and hid in the lounge.

Lin Tang noticed it, and the atmosphere here made her feel uncomfortable, so she chose to leave this area and walked into her lounge in the direction Wen Yuting had just walked.
