The feelings between people are a very mysterious thing.
Some people are instantly recognizable as compatible, while others try every means and method but still can't integrate.
The moment Si Huai saw Tang Wan, he thought the little brat was adorable.
This little brat reminded him of someone he hadn't been home for a long time.
Time flies so fast; the years have taken away his spring, and he hasn't smelled the fragrance of flowers for a long time.
But this year.
He seemed to see new buds sprouting from the branches, the spring breeze caressing the water, and ripples spreading across the surface—a breathtaking sight.
The variety show was forced to stop.
With such a serious accident, recording could no longer continue.
Knowing that Tang Wan hadn't eaten breakfast, Lu Lin angrily pushed aside the chubby director who was trying to defend himself, picked Tang Wan up, and said, "You, surnamed Pan! How could you be so heartless! You actually abused a child!"
The fat director was terrified by Lu Lin's serious accusations.
He quickly shook his head, looking completely innocent, and said, "No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
Quickly deny it three times.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Lin ignored the fat director's explanation. He grabbed Tang Wan and went back to their small room. He locked the door, picked up Tang Wan, and tried to throw her onto the bed, but then hesitated and was afraid of hurting her. In the end, he simply withdrew his hand and placed her on the bed.
His expression immediately turned serious, and his gaze towards Tang Wan was more solemn than ever before.
"Tang Wan." Lu Lin rarely called Tang Wan by her full name, and he did so in such an angry tone.
Tang Wan sat up straight immediately, feeling somewhat uneasy.
She never intended to lie to Lu Lin, nor did she intend to hide anything from him.
At most, he didn't tell Lu Lin what he was going to do, that's all.
Lu Lin looked as if he was furious.
His outward demeanor and expressions were a lie to Director Pang; what he really wanted was time alone with Tang Wan right now.
Seeing the guilty look on Tang Wan's face, Lu Lin snorted coldly, "Now you know fear?"
"When you were used as bait, didn't you ever think about being afraid?"
"No wonder you didn't let Gou Xi and Lu Ze come with you. You were afraid something might happen to them, right?"
"Fu Wenzhi is stupid too, he let you foolishly drag him there."
"You're so bold, why don't you just fly to the sky!"
"How old are you? You dare to scheme against someone like Dean Su! Aren't you really afraid she'll fight you to the death? You really are..."
At this point, Lu Lin was so angry that his speech became somewhat incoherent.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Tang Wan staring at him stubbornly with her neck stiff and her eyes red. The anger in his heart suddenly got stuck in his throat again.
But Tang Wan's bold move still infuriated Lu Lin.
Now that Dean Su has been caught, if she escapes, wouldn't Tang Wan be in danger again?
Lu Lin only made these connections after seeing that Tang Wan was not with Gou Xi and Lu Ze.
Tang Wan is too tight-lipped.
As long as she doesn't show it, no one knows what she's thinking.
Seeing that the "stubborn little cat" was still staring at him, Lu Lin dragged a stool over and sat down next to Tang Wan, saying earnestly, "Didn't I tell you before? Don't do dangerous things on your own. I'll worry about you, Tang Wan. I'll worry about you."
Lu Lin knew that Tang Wan was like a taut rope, like someone walking on the edge of a cliff, and that if she wasn't careful, she would fall off the cliff and never be able to get back.
Tang Wan is such a smart child, she shouldn't be ignored like the wind.
She's so smart, she's so good, she deserves a bright future.
She should stand among the crowd, like a star, like a flickering candle flame, loved by all.
However, Tang Wan still looked at Lu Lin silently, pursing her lips.
Tears welled up in her eyes like pearls from a broken string, each one sliding down Tang Wan's delicate face, forming a small point on her chin before falling onto the bedsheet.
It felt like a heavy blow to Lu Lin's heart.
Tang Wan didn't wipe away her tears with the back of her hand, but instead picked up her tablet and started writing on it.
I want to know where I come from.
[Brother, am I really a child abandoned by my parents?]
Was I born unloved? Did I really live in that orphanage the whole time?
You say my name is full of love, but I can't find any trace of being loved.
[Brother, I want to know who my mom and dad are, who I am, and where I came from. I don't want to be a child who knows nothing.]
Even knowing I was abandoned, I have no regrets. At least, at least I know who gave birth to me.
"Does it matter?" Lu Lin interrupted Tang Wan.
He reached out and hugged Tang Wan, as if embracing a shattered piece of glass.
He carefully pieced together Tang Wan's image, whispering in her ear, word by word: "Which is more important, the present or the future, than before?"
"I don't know your past, but if you really want to know, I will help you find out."
“We have a very long time together, and I will have many, many memories with you. The Lu family will always be your home.”
"Tangtang, you already have a family."
“You are not alone. You have an older brother and someone to rely on. You can no longer do whatever you want, like before.”
Tang Wan listened to Lu Lin's words, gently nudged Lu Lin's shoulder, and wrote something on the tablet.
[Is my brother trying to stop me?]
Lu Lin shook his head, rubbed the cat ears on Tang Wan's hat, and solemnly said, "No, I'm trying to win you back."
"Tangtang, I know you are different from other children. You are a very thoughtful child."
"But I hope you remember that your family will worry about you whenever you make any decisions that are not in your best interest."
“You are family, we will all love you.”
Tang Wan lowered her head, took Lu Lin's hand, hooked her little finger around Lu Lin's little finger, and then shook it.
In a daze, she heard that figure's voice again.
She was talking.
—Baby, pinky promise, for a hundred years, never to change.
"Ahhh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh!"
Tang Wan couldn't speak, so she could only follow the tone in her mind and utter these words.
The more she shouted, the more heartbroken she became, and the more tears she shed.
That's so strange.
Tang Wan thought to herself.
Why do I feel like I've lost something very important?
Fu Wenzhi, who was outside the door, withdrew his hand from the door he was about to knock on.
He looked at the comments from netizens displayed on his watch, his expression unreadable, and said something with a deep gaze.
"Little liar."
She didn't choose herself; she just chose someone who wouldn't ask too many questions.
Fu Wenzhi looked at the tightly closed door and felt as if someone just like himself was sitting across from him in the chess game he had been playing.
This time, she was a pawn, but she was also part of her own game.
Fortunately.
To win, to be thoroughly satisfied.
