Chapter 423 I Don't Care
"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore." Su Yun didn't react for a moment, and responded subconsciously.
Zhao Liming, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, motioned for Su Yun to glance at Zhang Querong standing quietly at the side, then shook his head and laughed, "Of course I know you are not a child anymore - it is for this reason that I reminded you to be careful."
Zhao Liming uttered the last few words of this sentence almost word by word.
Su Yun was also a little helpless when she realized what was happening: How come her elder brother seemed to be a bit like a Nanyang uncle in this respect?
Oh yes, I almost forgot, according to the traditional practice of the Zhao family to exchange offspring for upbringing and education, Zhao Qiming, as the eldest brother, really stayed in Nanyang for more than ten years before returning to Hong Kong. So the people who were responsible for taking care of and educating him during this period were undoubtedly the eldest uncle and the third uncle in Nanyang...
Thinking of the Nanyang uncle's initial behavior, Su Yun probably understood where Zhao Qiming's extraordinary desire for control came from...
"I will definitely pay attention to it. Please rest assured." Fearing that Zhao Liming would stab her in the back, Su Yun's response was almost like learning from the Japanese and bowing 90 degrees to show her sincerity.
"That's good. You are still young and your career is on the rise... Of course, the Zhao family is not unable to support you, but no matter what you think now or in the future, you must put your health first." Zhao Qiming gave several more earnest instructions before walking into the passage, looking back every few steps.
Seeing Zhao Liming's figure finally disappear from sight, and then watching the crew members enter the passage with a smile on his face, Su Yun and Zhang Querong exchanged a quick glance, with a mysterious smile of "when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey claims to be king"...
After confirming that they had all boarded the plane back to Hong Kong, the two walked out of the terminal hall with a look of relief on their faces, and then got into the taxi they had already booked with the driver.
In fact, the destination they were going to this time was a place they had been to before - when Su Yun got off the plane and came to Cannes, Zhang Querong, the clever little guy, took some time to plan and "eloped" with her in front of Zhao Liming.
At the end of this "elopement" road is the very unique and romantic bar where they are going to night.
Although Zhang Querong prefers to stay at home and read books on a daily basis, he was once a playboy in nightclubs when he was young and frivolous. It is definitely not difficult for him to find such an interesting and fun place if he really wants to.
However, if you add the four words "foreign country" in front of it, then it's a different story - this is not the Internet era of later generations, where you can find several travel guides for even the most remote place by entering it. Now, if you want to find such a place in a foreign country where you are unfamiliar with the place, the effort and connections required can be estimated to be a considerable amount.
It was precisely because she knew that he was so flattering that Su Yun cooperated with Zhao Qiming and really "eloped" with him to check out the place and bought some unique takeaway snacks...
And tonight, the bar is holding a masked party - it's perfect for people like them who can't show up but are eager to blend in with the crowd.
"Do you still remember that during the Taiwan Anniversary Party, Danny invited you to dance..." When Su Yun was having fun jumping in the crowd, Zhang Querong next to her suddenly said this.
"What?" Su Yun immediately started to play dumb.
"Although I had my back to you and was standing a little far away, I'm not blind..." His expression was hidden behind the mask, and his unobstructed eyes and smooth jawline vaguely revealed his attitude. "Besides... I can watch the video playback when I go back."
"Oh, you're talking about that. Yes, he was addicted to dancing at that time, and the people next to him didn't agree to be his dance partner, so I just played a temporary guest role." Seeing that he couldn't pretend anymore, Su Yun instantly pretended to have suddenly realized something.
"You..." His expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book. Zhang Querong was both angry and amused. "No wonder you got the golden leaf ten years before me."
"So, what do you want to say?" Su Yun looked at him calmly.
"I don't ask for much. I just passed by and took a look at the music machine and found that it would start playing slow songs in two songs, so I wanted to book a beautiful and compatible dance partner in advance." Zhang Querong said with a smile.
"If that's the case...then I'll take it as you complimenting me?" Su Yun gently pushed the decoration on her face.
"Of course I'm complimenting you. If I don't try to please my future beautiful and compatible dance partner, she might not accept my invitation." In such an atmosphere, it is very easy to get more and more into the role, not to mention that the person in front of you is someone you have been interested in for a long time?
"Then..." Su Yun raised a finger and put it in front of her lips, "What if I really don't agree?"
"Remember, you owed me one before." Zhang Querong smiled again immediately.
"Have you already figured it out?" Su Yun asked back.
"No, it's just used as an insurance policy. After all, it's not easy to ask a person like you to owe someone a favor." His voice seemed to be a little deeper and hoarse than usual after being influenced by alcohol, and even the tone of his voice seemed to have a bit of the lingering and sad feeling when he sang. "If possible, of course I want to keep it for a little longer."
"Then why do you use it?" Su Yun's eyebrow-raising movement was hidden behind the mask decoration, but people who are familiar with her can detect it through the subtle ups and downs of the surrounding muscles.
“Although opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, if you only care about keeping them and not seizing them, you will only miss the rare opportunities and sigh in vain,” he explained.
"That's a good point." Su Yun nodded and extended her hand.
When the two hands touched, the colorful lights above their heads that were shaking violently slowed down along with the soothing music.
Compared to Chen Baiyang's previous invitation to dance, this time's invitation to dance was different from the very beginning.
Without the constraints of the stage and the camera, all the elegance and reserve were retracted into the memories of the past. Instead, a slow dance that was apparently gentle and lingering could be performed with the seductive force of a close and hot dance by a young man who had studied dance for a long time.
Unlike the intense and intense dance moves, the minute movements gently brush against the skin, hinting at the restrained style of the film for which he won the award.
However, the forbearance and outburst in the play are the nodes that she can control, while the accumulation and outburst from others outside the play are not something that a lazy rookie like her who only seeks pleasure and relaxation and has not really delved into it can control...
To put it bluntly, she is a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong, and she takes advantage of people's willingness to have double standards and lack of experience to take the initiative and occupy an offensive position.
Once someone takes the initiative, especially an old hand who has long been accustomed to the world of love, then you will become a moth struggling in vain in the flames, stalling for time and watching the flames devour you bit by bit.
"I..." As if she wanted to say something, but seemed reluctant to be tempted like this, when Su Yun opened her mouth slightly to organize her words, the young man, who always knew how to seize the opportunity to act, immediately lowered his head, blocking all her words in an instant.
What on earth did she want to say?
She said that she already had several "good friends", so she didn't want him to become one of them and add to the troubles for both parties?
Or...he was thinking that he had already witnessed her trying to please someone else before, so why did she want to rush into this mess and mess with other people's hearts?
Anyway, it’s not like she already has someone, so she can’t accept other people’s idea. Good guy, the two people mentioned above are all subconsciously passing the buck to others…
After realizing that he was so good at passing the buck and putting the blame on others, Su Yun was distracted for a moment, and was hit by the sudden increase in the intensity of the "punishment".
The hands on her waist and shoulders seemed to be reminding her not to be distracted.
Somehow, Su Yun was aroused by a competitive spirit. He raised his head a little higher and began to use all his current skills to fight against this opponent who had planned it in advance.
Then, each of them moved their feet, and the two people who were hugging each other tightly returned to the corner by the wall where the light was darker.
Feeling the strength of this young but never-giving-up pursuit and confrontation, Zhang Querong sighed inwardly and finally relaxed his premeditated sense of aggression. Instead, he used a more lingering and touching gentleness to guide this incompetent little rascal who didn't like to admit defeat on how to please the hearts of both parties.
Although Zhao Liming has a strong desire for control, the reason why he is particularly "strict" with Su Yun is indeed correct - she is really too easily "tempted" by those around her.
And many times, these "temptations" are coated with a layer of emotional sugar coating, which makes young girls unable to control themselves and indulge in them.
But the scariest thing is that once you break up, the person who was once so obsessed that he seemed unable to extricate himself can actually ignore the dreams of hugging each other in the past and face you at a normal distance...
What a pitiful and cruel little rascal.
Feeling that the breath transmitted back was gradually weakening, Zhang Querong slightly loosened his grip on the person. When he lowered his head and looked down, he saw that the pair of purple eyes that were dyed red and dripping with color contained countless complex emotions.
"I don't care." The whisper was almost close to her lips, but it seemed to be firm and unyielding. "On the contrary...if you are really that 'strong', then I won't have any chance at all."
