Chapter 482 Never
Tang Qing watched Shi Chen enter the elevator and then went home. When he closed the door, he heard a noise outside, as if something had fallen to the ground.
She subconsciously looked back and saw that it was not her neighbor across the street and the corridor was empty.
It was not a big deal, so Tang Qing did not waste too much energy here and closed the door.
In the fire escape not far away.
Jiang Budu watched the security door close, bent down to pick up the phone at his feet, and held it tightly in his hand until his knuckles turned white.
Last night, Xu Jiang sent him screenshots of Tang Qing and Shi Chen’s WeChat messages, one after the other.
Tang Qing posted a photo of a table of food and admitted in the comment section that she had a boyfriend, while Shi Chen was even more direct, posting a photo of the two of them and several solo photos of Tang Qing, with the caption "Glad that you came."
When Jiang Budu saw Tang Qing in those photos, he had a very unfamiliar feeling - he always thought she was lifeless, had no energy, and would not do anything exciting, but when he saw these photos with his own eyes, he realized how wrong he was.
He seemed to have never really understood her interests and preferences, and - apart from physical entanglement, the two of them had almost no other communication, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it before.
They had eaten together, but he always ordered Tang Qing to cook, or he chose a restaurant and took her there directly without asking her if she liked it.
He also gave Tang Qing many gifts, including jewelry, bags, and clothes, all of which were very valuable. However, every time he gave a gift, he chose it unilaterally. He thought that as long as he gave it to her, she should like it and be grateful. However, Tang Qing's reaction was always indifferent, which made him very unhappy.
He often said that she was ungrateful, but he never thought about whether what he gave her was what she really wanted.
They had never traveled together, and he didn't know that she liked to go out and play. He rarely wasted so much time on a woman - he was too busy with work, and no matter how much a woman liked it, it was just entertainment and could not affect his work efficiency.
Not only Tang Qing, he had never taken any woman who had been with him on a trip.
Jiang Budu took a deep breath, unlocked his phone screen, and opened the photos of Tang Qing again.
In every photo, she smiles happily and brightly. You can feel her freedom and vitality even through the screen.
It is said that the lens can speak, and you can see the feelings of the photographer towards the subject of the photo from the photo. Now, he has finally realized it.
besides.
Jiang Budu recalled the scene where Tang Qing took the initiative to hug and kiss Shi Chen. His breathing became heavier and heavier, and he felt a suffocating feeling in his chest, which made his vision a little dark.
Tang Qing had never treated him like this, never.
He was not a naive person and had no interest in such a light kiss, but now he was twisted with jealousy.
Even when Tang Qing was being tormented by him in bed, she never kissed him proactively. At most, she just grabbed his arm and said, "Hurry up."
It was just instinct, and had little to do with emotion—but because she was usually so lifeless, he'd always enjoyed torturing her with it, just to see her lose control.
It’s really ironic to think about it now. It was just a way for him to hypnotize himself.
When she really wants to take the initiative, she doesn't need any stimulation at all.
She will hug and kiss you actively, smile brightly, and stick with you all weekend long.
She wasn't dead, she just didn't like him.
Jiang Budu laughed at himself, walked out of the emergency passage holding his phone, and took the elevator downstairs.

Early Monday morning, as soon as Tang Qing arrived at the company, he contacted Bai Ruan's agent to ask about the endorsement.
Bai Ruan's endorsement is the most important thing on her mind right now. She temporarily escaped from it for two days on the weekend, but still has to deal with it on weekdays.
After Tang Qing sent the message, Bai Ruan's agent took more than half an hour to reply.
She said: [I just asked her, she is free tonight, Ms. Tang, you can just come to this address around 6:30.]
The message was followed by a location information, which was a tea restaurant not far from her residence.
Tang Qing thanked Bai Ruan's agent and then went to the meeting.
Gu Zhongzhou happened to be in the company today. During lunch, Tang Qing was called downstairs by Gu Zhongzhou to eat together.
Gu Zhongzhou was a very nice boss. During the meal, he even cared about whether her work was going well and whether she was adapting to the environment.
Tang Qing smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu. I've adapted quite well."
Gu Zhongzhou: "You parachuted in here, so it's inevitable that some people will be dissatisfied. If this happens, please tell me in time and I will handle it."
Tang Qing: "Not yet. My colleagues in the department are all very nice to me."
Gu Zhongzhou: "Oh, I forgot to congratulate you."
Tang Qing: "Congratulations?"
"Congratulations on finding a boyfriend." Gu Zhongzhou picked up the lemonade beside him and clinked glasses with her. "I heard from Ying Xing that you two were college classmates."
Tang Qing nodded, keenly grasping the key point: "Did you meet over the weekend?"
Gu Zhongzhou smiled and said, "Thanks to you, you were with your boyfriend, and she was bored, so she asked me to go out and play."
Tang Qing: "So I indirectly did a good thing."
Gu Zhongzhou: "You can say that."
Tang Qing: "You are really able to keep your composure."
Gu Zhongzhou took a sip of water and said thoughtfully, "The preparations are almost done. There may be new moves soon. I need your help."
Tang Qing: "No problem, go ahead."
——
At six o'clock, Tang Qing got off work on time and drove to the agreed location as soon as possible.
There was a traffic jam during the evening rush hour, and it took more than half an hour to get there, which should have taken about fifteen minutes.
It was already six forty-five when Tang Qing parked her car in front of the restaurant. She unbuckled her seat belt, took out the car keys, picked up her bag, hurriedly got out of the car and entered the restaurant, heading straight for the private box on the second floor.
Tang Qing found the box number according to the information given by Bai Ruan's agent, stopped at the door, and knocked twice gently.
Then, the door opened.
Tang Qing moved his lips and was about to speak when he suddenly saw Jiang Budu standing behind the door.
When she saw that face, the word "Miss Bai" got stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it out anymore.
Tang Qing looked past Jiang Budu into the box. Bai Ruan was nowhere to be seen - she immediately realized what was going on.
She was fooled.
Jiang Budu asked Bai Ruan's agent to tell her this.
Tang Qing had nothing to say to Jiang Budu. Since Bai Ruan was not there, there was no need for her to stay.
Tang Qing turned around and prepared to leave when Jiang Budu's voice came from behind him: "Are you not going to discuss the endorsement anymore?"
Tang Qing stopped.
The next moment, he said, "Bai Ruan, follow my instructions."
Tang Qing smiled, but without any warmth.
Having been entangled with Jiang Budu for so many years, she knew very well what he meant by those two sentences just now.
After laughing, Tang Qing turned around.
Jiang Budu pointed to the private room and said, "Let's go in and talk."
