"Okay, I got it." He finally responded, raised his hand to rub the top of my head, but then said, "Even if I go to find him, it's for you, so it's not a waste of time and energy."
I was taken aback, looked up at him, and felt a warm current flowing through my heart.
His perspective on problems is always unique and very persuasive.
I muttered, "No, we don't need that either. We should just ignore people like that."
"Okay, whatever you say."
We looked at each other and didn't say anything for a moment. The atmosphere became strangely "weird".
Looking into his deep, dark eyes, his focused gaze, I suddenly realized something, and my heart began to beat faster for no reason.
this……
The atmosphere, the eye contact, the unspoken understanding—according to the plot of movies and TV dramas, the next step should be for the two faces to slowly approach each other, then the man to turn his head slightly, and the two to kiss without hesitation.
But with so many people present, and everyone seeing this, who knows how much trouble they'll cause.
Although I've been married and am considered an "old hand," I'm not familiar with intimate matters between men and women, let alone such public intimacy.
My mind raced with panic, my breathing quickened, and I suddenly turned my face away, whispering, "Um... it's getting late, I..."
As soon as I spoke, Su Shenglin blinked and his mind instantly cleared.
I stopped before I could finish speaking, my face flushed as I lowered my eyes.
"Ahem!" Su Shenglin cleared his throat, then looked at his watch. "Hmm, it's almost one in the morning. I'll take you home. Your leg injury hasn't fully healed yet, so you can't stand for long."
Indeed, after standing for several hours that night, I felt a dull ache in both knees and my movements were somewhat stiff.
But when I looked up and around, I saw that everyone was drinking, chatting, dancing, playing cards, and playing games. The atmosphere was lively, and there was no sign of the party ending.
"Isn't it inappropriate for you to leave now?"
"It's okay, they know I don't like these things." Su Shenglin put his arm around me, turned around and walked towards the group. After saying goodbye, he prepared to leave.
"What about Muxi? Will she go back by herself later?" I asked worriedly.
Chen Muxi waved her hand, signaling us to hurry up and leave. "It's okay, I'm not a child, I can go back by myself."
Su Shenglin instructed, "Wait for me to come back and pick you up. Don't wander off."
"Hey, you have a girlfriend now, can you please stop nagging me all the time!" Chen Muxi protested unhappily.
Su Shenglin left with the words, "I'll always be your brother!"
"..." Chen Muxi was so angry that her mouth twisted in disbelief.
After saying goodbye to everyone again, Su Shenglin and I left first.
Once inside the sightseeing elevator, I looked out through the glass.
Although it was past midnight, the riverbank was still packed with people.
Something suddenly popped into my head, and I turned around to ask, "How long have you been preparing for tonight?"
Su Shenglin was looking at his phone when he heard this, but he looked up at me and his expression was clearly uncomfortable.
I smiled slightly, "This isn't like you."
He hummed in agreement and explained, "It was Yuntang's idea, but I improved upon it."
When he said the next sentence, he raised his eyebrows slightly, clearly a little proud, obviously very satisfied with the part he had "improved".
At this moment, he was no longer the noble, powerful, and decisive mysterious tycoon in the eyes of outsiders; instead, he resembled a little boy seeking praise.
I smiled and went along with it, saying, "Using comics to clarify things for me, that's your improvement, right?"
He smiled and nodded, "You don't say I can't get involved in things online, but you didn't say I can't express my feelings, right? Between us, I was the one who made the first move, so even if I have to face moral condemnation, it should be me."
I looked at him, my heart burning, and then I couldn't help but say, "But I can't bear to see you suffer moral condemnation."
After saying that, I turned my head and continued looking out the window.
She was too ashamed to face him.
But he still came close, hugged me from behind, and whispered in my ear, "With your words, it's all worth it."
I smiled without saying a word, my heart filled with indescribable joy.
On my way home, I was still excited.
Li Yunwei sent me a lot of WeChat messages, and when I opened them, I found out that the drone show had gone viral online.
Unsurprisingly, a variety of opinions followed.
There were those who were moved, envious, and offered blessings, but naturally there were also those who mocked, slandered, and resented the rich.
But I'm in a good mood and don't care about what others say.
She even responded with some insults and slander, almost as if she were gloating. When she encountered comments saying the man was blind to talent, she responded without hesitation.
Su Shenglin noticed my sullen smile and asked me curiously what I was laughing about.
I said, "Chatting with netizens is quite interesting."
"Netizens?"
I turned my phone around and showed it to him.
He understood, smiled, and said, "Why bother with all this?"
"Hmph, I don't care what they say about me, but I can't stand it when they talk about you. I have to give them a piece of my mind."
Su Shenglin said with a gentle smile, "You're quite protective of your own."
really.
I have always been clear about my gratitude and grievances.
I will repay even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude.
I will hold grudges and seek revenge against those who are mean to me.
The dramatic changes in my life these past few months have made me fully realize the true meaning of life: take life and death lightly, and fight if you disagree! Live according to your own ideas, live the life you want, and let no one try to undermine me!
So, I ended up arguing with the "haters" the whole way.
I won't let any of those scumbags who come to my homepage and spew nonsense under the "short essays" I post during the day get away with it.
The car arrived downstairs, and Su Shenglin turned to look at me.
