Chapter 19
There was lingering sadness in Leng Yichen's eyes, and it was obvious that he had not yet gotten out of the play.
He only came back to his senses when he heard the applause. He stroked the corners of his eyes and smiled.
The director applauded and immediately decided that Leng Yichen would be the candidate.
Leng Yichen was completely relieved.
He went out and met Sister He's inquiring gaze, nodding slightly.
Sister He smiled and felt relieved.
The two arrived at the parking lot and were about to get in the car when a bodyguard came over: "Hello, Mr. Leng, Mr. Lu wants to see you."
What is meant to come will come.
From the moment Leng Yichen saw Lu Ruoxi appear, he knew that it was she who was behind this.
It’s very much like her style. The way she expresses her love is to give money, resources and connections.
Leng Yichen sighed inwardly, gave a reassuring smile to the worried Sister He, and then got into a low-key Rolls-Royce.
As soon as I entered, a familiar scent of cold pine hit me in the face.
Leng Yichen couldn't help but be stunned. This was the perfume he had given her before. Has Lu Ruoxi always been using this brand?
He couldn't help but glance sideways.
Lu Ruoxi looked over and they exchanged a glance without warning. Leng Yichen suddenly straightened up and didn't dare to look at her anymore.
He thought for a moment, then took out a card from his bag and handed it over: "This is to pay you back. I've been busy lately and haven't had time to return it to you. The password is your birthday."
Lu Ruoxi raised the corner of her lips and took it: "Do you still remember my birthday?"
The gentle voice with a smile seemed to be poured into the ear, and gradually became clearer in the car.
Leng Yichen couldn't help but hold his breath, his heart was filled with complicated emotions, and he murmured, "Yeah."
They had been together for five years.
No matter how busy Lu Ruoxi is, they will definitely celebrate their birthdays together. How could he forget her birthday?
The car suddenly became quiet.
Both of them couldn't help but recall memories that were buried deep inside.
After a long while, Lu Ningchu suddenly said, "Let's have a meal together, or how about going to Hexianlou?"
This is considered a presumptuous invitation.
A trace of struggle flashed in Leng Yichen's eyes, but thinking that the other person had helped him a lot, it would be bad if he didn't go, so he agreed lightly.
…
We soon arrived at Hexian Tower.
In the box.
The two sat opposite each other.
Lu Ningchu ordered a few of Leng Yichen's favorite dishes. As if she had thought of something, she looked up and asked, "Anything else?"
Leng Yichen blurted out subconsciously: "Eight Treasure Chicken."
When he reacted, his expression froze.
This is Lu Ningchu's favorite dish. It has become second nature, so he actually said it out loud.
Lu Ruoxi's expression was uncertain, and his eyes were extremely dark when he lowered his eyebrows.
After all the dishes were served, Lu Ruoxi rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair hands as she filled a bowl of soup and placed it steadily in front of Leng Yichen.
This is Leng Yichen's habit.
Actors need to control their body shape and weight, and drinking soup before meals can help control their diet.
Leng Yichen looked at the bowl of soup, and his heart was inevitably touched.
Unexpectedly, she still remembered these little habits.
During the meal, Leng Yichen went to the bathroom.
When I passed by a box, I suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Ningchu, you're divorced, why don't you want to accept me?"
Leng Yichen paused and stopped. It seemed to be Zhou Tingyu's voice.
He was about to leave when Lu Ningchu's slightly impatient voice came from inside: "No reason, is this why you asked me out?"
Leng Yichen has no habit of prying into other people's privacy.
Just after taking a few steps, he bumped into Lu Ruoxi's slender figure walking towards him: "Leng Yichen, why are you here?"
Leng Yichen's pupils shrank, and he walked forward, took her arm and prepared to leave.
Lu Ningchu didn't know that he and Lu Ruoxi were exes, so he subconsciously wanted to avoid her.
But it was too late. Lu Ningchu in the box had already walked out when he heard Leng Yichen's name.
When she looked up, she saw her ex-husband and sister standing side by side.
Her ex-husband's hand was still holding her sister's.
But Lu Ruoxi, who has always been a mysophobia, did not shake him off, but continued to let him hold her.
Lu Ningchu stared at Leng Yichen holding Lu Ruoxi's hand as if he wanted to eat her.
She was shocked and incredulous: "Why are you together?"
