Chapter 157 A message
After Xie Tinglan finished speaking, the entire conference hall fell silent for a moment.
ah? !
Everyone was shocked.
Wh-what?
Did they hear it right?
Xie Tinglan... is here to pick up... Xia Linxing, take her home?!
The shocked guests looked at each other: When did the relationship between Xia Linxing... and Xie Tinglan become so good?
Xie Tinglan has come to take Xia Linxing home? !
Could it be that when Xia Linxing chased Xie Tinglan to participate in this talent show, they actually developed feelings for each other?!
Just when everyone, including Ye Zhenzhen, was stunned to the point of being frozen in place, Xie Tinglan had already walked straight towards Xia Linxing in the corner, proving to them with his actions that they had not heard wrong.
"Star……"
As soon as Xie Tinglan said this, all the guests shuddered.
Stars, stars?!
What did Xie Tinglan just call Xia Linxing? Didn't he always call Xia Linxing by her full name before? Why was he suddenly being so affectionate?
The more shocking result was yet to come. Xie Tinglan walked to Xia Linxing's side, took the plate from Xia Linxing's hand very naturally, took a look at it, and showed an expression of disapproval on his face.
Here we come!
The onlookers were cheered up. Was Xie Tinglan finally going to return to normal and start scolding Xia Linxing?
"Did you eat a lot of desserts today?"
Xie Tinglan reached out and gently wiped away the chocolate crumbs left at the corner of Xia Linxing's mouth with his thumb.
Xie Tinglan didn't exaggerate like in idol dramas, putting the finger he wiped off the crumbs back into his mouth. Instead, he took a towel from the side and wiped his hands while saying to Xia Linxing in a very disapproving tone: "You've exceeded the limit for sweets today. You can't eat anymore..."
Xia Linxing stood there obediently, letting Xie Tinglan take the dessert from his hand and wipe the crumbs from the corner of his mouth.
The two people's movements were quite natural, but it made people around them question their lives.
no……
Some people in the crowd even took out their phones to check the time.
They couldn't have time-traveled, right? How could it be that in just a month or two, these two had gone from Xie Tinglan wanting nothing to do with Xia Linxing to this sweet, passionate love scene (from the perspective of the onlookers)?
What exactly happened on this talent show?
The other rich second-generations who had originally just thought Xia Linxing's participation in a talent show as a trainee was a joke finally started to take an interest in the show and planned to watch and study it carefully when they had some free time...
If just participating in Xie Tinglan's program can help him get along well with Xie Tinglan, then he, they... can do it!
Ye Zhenzhen finally came back to her senses from her disbelief, smoothed over the stiff expression on her face, and took a few steps to chase after him.
"Listen to Brother Lan..."
She looked at Xie Tinglan, who was about to leave with Xia Linxing, with a look of reluctance and unwillingness on her face: "Are you going back now?"
She looked at Xie Tinglan expectantly: "We're going to share the cake soon. Brother Tinglan, you... and Xia Linxing, why don't you eat the cake before you leave?"
As she spoke, she put her hands behind her back and gestured to the waiter next to her, asking them to quickly push the cake out and advance the process.
The waiter left in a hurry, but Xie Tinglan glanced at Xia Linxing, whose eyes lit up when he heard about the cake and who obviously wanted to order another one, and "cruelly" rejected Ye Zhenzhen: "No, Aunt Mingyu is still waiting for us at home, so we won't disturb you from sharing the cake... Happy birthday again, I hope you have a great time..."
"Well, then..."
Xie Tinglan had already said so, so Ye Zhenzhen could only nod in agreement reluctantly. After all, if she insisted any further, she would probably end up like Xia Linxing before.
She didn't want to become the person Xie Tinglan hated.
"Then I'll take you out..." Ye Zhenzhen tried hard to smile, and elegantly tucked her drooping hair behind her head, trying to maintain her generous and decent image in front of Xie Tinglan.
But the image she tried so hard to maintain was almost ruined when she saw Xie Tinglan grab Xia Linxing and try to take the reluctant Xia Linxing out.
"Come, follow me..."
For the first time, Ye Zhenzhen felt a little regretful.
She shouldn't have said something like "I'll take you out" just because she wanted to spend more time with Xie Tinglan... It would have been better if she had just let the two of them leave. She wouldn't have been forced to watch this scene...
Ye Zhenzhen glanced at Xie Tinglan's hand tightly wrapped around Xia Linxing's shoulder, and felt a little pain in her eyes.
How come she didn't know before that Xie Tinglan had such a... clingy side.
After sending the two away with a falsely polite smile, Ye Zhenzhen prepared to return weakly.
Fortunately, her best friend, probably worried about her, came downstairs to pick her up.
"They both...are gone?"
Ye Zhenzhen leaned tiredly against the elevator and nodded weakly, "Let's go."
It was clearly only a short distance, but Ye Zhenzhen had never felt it so long before. She was so exhausted that she didn't even bother to kick out the guy who looked like a waiter who had entered the elevator with her.
"This is the first time I've seen Brother Tinglan like that..." Ye Zhenzhen looked up at the elevator ceiling and murmured, "How did the relationship between Xia Linxing and Brother Tinglan suddenly become so good?"
"Could it really be related to the recording of that talent show?"
I don't know if it was Ye Zhenzhen's illusion, but as she was talking, the boy dressed like a waiter, holding a bottle of wine, turned his head and glanced at her. However, when Ye Zhenzhen looked over, he returned to the straight-ahead look he had when he first got on the elevator.
Ye Zhenzhen withdrew her gaze and continued chatting with her best friend. After all, they were all her employees, so they knew what to say and what not to say.
"Tell me, do I...have no chance?"
"Don't worry..." Ye Zhenzhen's best friend approached mysteriously and lowered her voice: "I recently heard a piece of news..."
"If this news is true, there is absolutely no chance that Xia Linxing will be with Xie Tinglan..."
