Jiang Li's gaze was always fixed on one place. In his eyes, everything around him became a shadow, and she became the only color.
Bei Yutang felt a slight pang of pain in her heart as she was stared at by his burning gaze.
She wanted to look away, but her gaze seemed to be fixed on him.
They looked into each other's eyes, and recalled that beautiful, ethereal voice in their ears.
When the last character fell, Bei Yutang raised his hands.
The sound of applause "Pa, pa" woke up the intoxicated crowd, followed by the second, third, and fourth rounds of applause, and gradually the entire banquet hall was filled with enthusiastic applause.
When Jiang Li stepped down, Bei Yutang left his seat.
Jiang Li arrived at his seat, but there was no sign of her. He frantically searched for her. He scanned the vast banquet hall, but couldn't find the familiar figure. He left the venue and searched along the road.
I saw her by the lake and hurried towards her.
Bei Yutang didn't turn around when she heard the voice. Jiang Li walked to her side and looked at her sideways.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Li said with a relaxed expression, but his tone was cautious.
Bei Yutang ignored him and looked at the lake in front of him.
Jiang Li wanted to speak, but seeing her at this moment, he didn't dare to speak.
After a while, Bei Yutang finally spoke.
"Jiang Li, it's impossible between us." Bei Yutang said word by word.
In fact, she had known it for a long time, but she had only secretly told herself that he was just too dependent on her. However, after that layer of window paper was punctured today, she could no longer deceive herself.
"Why?" Jiang Li asked in a deep voice.
Bei Yutang turned her head to look at him, her eyes cold and even distant, "Who am I, who are you? You should know that there will never be anything between us."
"I don't care about that." Jiang Li suppressed his voice and held her arms with both hands. "Tang'er, I can feel that you have feelings for me too, otherwise you would not allow me to call you like that, right?"
Bei Yutang pulled her hands away and said coldly, "I didn't know a name could give you this kind of illusion. From today on, you can only call me Aunt Bei."
"Tang'er, that's not what I meant. I meant..."
Before he could finish his words, Bei Yutang interrupted him, "Jiang Li, you are already an adult. You should know what you can and cannot do."
"If you're concerned about Dad, I can handle his side." Jiang Li didn't consider his father's side a problem at all, because he knew that his father's agreement for her to sleep in a separate room was the best proof.
If he cared about her, he wouldn't have been like this for so many years. My father has never lacked women. The reason why he married her was simply because he liked her lack of ambition.
As astute as his father was, he must have known what he was thinking, and he had never concealed anything from him. The fact that he had no control over him was the best proof.
"Jiang Li, I think it's best for us not to meet during this period of time." Bei Yutang turned and left.
"Tang'er." He reached out to grab her arm, but she dodged it lightly.
He caught up with her, but found that if she really wanted to get rid of him, it would be so easy. He knew she had martial arts skills since he was a child, but he had never really experienced them. Only now did he realize the gap between them.
"Tang'er."
The person in front never looked back, and the figure gradually walked away in the night.
