Chapter Ninety-Eight: I Want to Be Your Dependence
For a moment, she was suddenly in a trance, unable to read the words on the cardboard, her brain was blank, and she couldn't think at all.
I can't tell if I don't understand what he really wants to say or if I don't want to understand.
She was stunned for a while, until Jiang Hanchen called her in her ear.
Tang Luoran woke up like a dream, his eyes widened, and he turned his head to look at him sensitively, only to see him show a gentle smile and say softly, "What's wrong with you?" Out of sorts? β
On the surface, he looked very calm, but in fact, he was so nervous that his palms were sweating, and all kinds of emotions in his heart were complicated.
Tang Luoran shook his head and responded to him with a little embarrassment, "No, I'm just a little surprised." β
She didn't expect him to suddenly take the initiative, but this is not a confession, right?
Sensing that Jiang Hanchen was waiting for her answer, Tang Luoran hesitated for a moment, but still chose to respond positively, "Although I am very moved, have you been messing with Zheng Xiaoying for too long, why do you even say exactly the same thing?" You're all so funny. β
As she spoke, she pretended to bow her head and chuckle to hide her discomfort.
In fact, she was still evading - she knew that Jiang Hanchen didn't want this kind of answer, but she was pretending to be stupid.
Fortunately, Jiang Hanchen didn't delve into it, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, his smile was even stronger, and he said with a smile, "How do you know?" Her personality is almost like that of a boy, so we get along. β
I got acquainted with Zheng Xiaoying only because he found out that Zheng Xiaoying and Tang Luoran were friends, so he decided to ask her.
I thought that Zheng Xiaoying would decisively refuse, but I didn't expect her attitude to be refreshing, patted him on the shoulder, and swore and said, "Don't worry, I will help you take down Tang Luoran." β
Although it was still inexplicable to say this as a friend, Jiang Hanchen could see that she was really thinking about Tang Luoran.
After Zheng Xiaoying laughed for a while, Tang Luoran remembered that the dessert had not been eaten yet.
Jiang Hanchen didn't demolish her, which made her breathe a sigh of relief, but in this way, when she enjoyed his heart, she always felt a sense of guilt in her heart.
In the end, it still disappointed him.
And Jiang Hanchen knew what she was thinking, so he couldn't get along naturally as before, in order to alleviate the slightly embarrassing atmosphere, he took out the remote control from the drawer under the table and turned on the TV.
After solving the dessert in the noisy voice, Tang Luoran saw the opportunity, and when he came out of the bathroom, he stood up and said with a guilty face, "I'm sorry, I have to leave very late." β
After being reminded by her, Jiang Hanchen subconsciously lowered his head and raised his watchβit was already one o'clock in the middle of the night.
"It's my fault, I don't even know it's so late, let's go, I'll send you back." Instead, he felt guilty, gave her the stairs, and handed her the woolen coat and scarf hanging from the tripod in a rather gentlemanly manner.
Tang Luoran changed into a coat and followed his footsteps to the entrance to put on shoes.
Due to embarrassment, her mind went blank, and she forgot that the handbag on the sofa was not taken away, and Jiang Hanchen did not notice it.
After sending her downstairs, Tang Luoran asked him to stop, she hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, "I'm driving here, let's drive back, lest he become suspicious, you go back quickly, don't catch a cold." β
With that, she hurriedly turned around, but before she could take a step forward in her long legs, she was stopped by Jiang Hanchen, "Wait a minute." β
With a chuckle in her heart, Tang Luoran suddenly panicked, she hesitated, but turned to look at him.
I saw Jiang Hanchen straining his face and saying in a serious tone, "Tomorrow, can I still walk with you like this, and I don't need to worry about anyone's eyes?" Or no? β
As she spoke, the mist came out of his mouth, gathered into a clump and dispersed in an instant, and she couldn't see his appearance clearly.
The street lamps at the entrance of the community emitted a bleak glow, and their shadows stretched to the side, eventually intertwined.
"Absolutely." Tang Luoran said with a smile, squinting with a smile despite the swelling of her eyes.
After receiving her consent, Jiang Hanchen suddenly blossomed like a child, and did not hide the smile on the corner of his mouth, not to mention how proud he was.
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, Tang Luoran went to work as usual, but dozens of minutes later than usual.
Because she slept too late last night and woke up this morning with severe swelling, she couldn't find the medicine at home that could only be obtained in the hospital to make lymphatic reflux, so she had to use cold compresses to solve it.
Even so, the marks on her eyes were somewhat noticeable.
simply wore sunglasses to work, surprised many people along the way, Tang Luoran ignored them, and after walking into the lounge, she dared to take off her sunglasses, and looked at herself in the mirror Her eyes were still red.
Sighing silently, she immediately lowered her head to sort out the file, who knew that someone was suddenly hugging her waist, Tang Luoran immediately nervously broke the hand covering her stomach, and at the same time turned around to take a closer look - it was Zheng Xiaoying again.
"Why can't you learn every time? Didn't I say that? I don't like this sudden physical contact. β
Frowning in displeasure, Tang Luoran broke free from her arms and turned back to continue sorting out the files.
She just glared at this before, but she didn't expect the reaction to be so fierce this time, although Zheng Xiaoying felt inexplicable, her attitude still hasn't changed, and she is still pestering, "Okay, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I don't want to express the love of friends." β
Hearing her say this, Tang Luoran finally lost his anger.
"Got it, you just say what you're doing." Saying bluntly, Tang Luoran suddenly paused, turned his head and reminded her, "Of course, if you ask me how I am with Jiang Hanchen, then you should go back to work." β
Unfortunately, Zheng Xiaoying is here for this.
But since she didn't want to say it, Zheng Xiaoying was not reluctant, she smiled flatteringly, and changed her words, "Of course not, I want to ask you, what's going on with you and Fu Zichen now?" How is it good for a while and bad for a while? β
She didn't hate Fu Zichen either, but Fu Zichen was too much for Tang Luoran, so she decided to stand on Jiang Hanchen's side.
In the final analysis, it is still Tang Luoran as the main axis.
As soon as she mentioned him, Tang Luoran suddenly lost her energy, and the movements of her hands became slower and slower, her head lowered, and her expression was in a trance, as if she was in a daze.
Half a ring, I heard her respond in a deep voice, "My fate with him is broken, but I don't understand why, he just doesn't want to divorce, he must be very disappointed in me." β
In any case, her mind has been made and will not change.
"Let me ask, Luo Ran, do you still love him?" Zheng Xiaoying carefully observed her expression, but she didn't want Tang Luoran's eyes to suddenly darken, and replied to her in a deep voice, "If you can let it go, you won't be so in the accident world." β
It's so fragile and distressing.
Zheng Xiaoying hurriedly hugged her tightly and apologized over and over again, "I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't mention that bastard with no conscience, I won't mention it again in the future." β
I thought Tang Luoran was going to be sad, but I didn't want her to be so stubborn that she took back her emotions stiffly.
"I'm fine, and you don't have to feel guilty." The person whose eyes were red just now now comforted himself in turn, Zheng Xiaoying suddenly cried and laughed.
But on the other hand, she is also really distressed - how forbearant can a person be in order to be like this?
This, I'm afraid only Tang Luoran knows.
In order to prevent her from continuing to think about Fu Zichen, Zheng Xiaoying quickly changed the topic and made Tang Luoran laugh, and she breathed a sigh of relief and left the lounge.
Who knew that as soon as he walked out of the door and turned a corner, Zheng Xiaoying met Jiang Hanchen head-on.
Zheng Xiaoying subconsciously pulled Jiang Hanchen aside, and said mysteriously, "I have tried my best to help you fight for the opportunity, now it's up to you, remember, if you are sincere, then you must be patient." β
She really wanted Tang Luoran to be good, so she wanted Jiang Hanchen to soothe her heartache.
Jiang Hanchen also knew that he was convinced of Zheng Xiaoying's words, he nodded and solemnly agreed, "I understand, thank you." β
After Zheng Xiaoying left, before he could open his legs, Tang Luoran walked out of the office, she put her hand into the outer pocket of her white coat, looking tired but pretending to be calm, after discovering Jiang Hanchen's gaze, her eyes widened suddenly, "Why are you here?" β
Oh no, should she have heard what she said to Zheng Xiaoying just now?
"I was just going to come to you, and now it's just right, I want to say that the time to eat together is delayed until next week, because there is something going on at home, sorry." Saying with a guilty face, Jiang Hanchen carefully observed the change in her expression.
Tang Luoran breathed a sigh of relief, she half-lowered her eyes, and responded seemingly nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's up to you to decide the time, I'm free anytime." β
A nervous heart suddenly let go.
"That's good, to be honest, I'm a little worried, I thought you'd be embarrassed, and then you won't want to talk to me anymore." Jiang Hanchen smiled softly, still very calm on the surface, but not to mention how happy he was in his heart.
She was still expressionless, and her delicate face was like a fragile work of art.
After a moment, as if he had finally reacted, Tang Luoran set his eyes on him and smiled indifferently, "You don't have to worry too much, I won't suddenly disappoint, besides, I also have something I want to ask you." β
Jiang Hanchen's attitude is undoubtedly - as long as he knows, he will give it all.
The hand that reached into the outer pocket of her white coat tightened, and she tensed her nerves, raised her eyes to meet his, and then asked word by word, "Can I trust you?" Like you said last night. β
His heartbeat suddenly slowed down by half a beat, and Jiang Hanchen's eyes widened, unable to believe what he heard.
What does this mean, she has promised him?
He did not dare to rejoice for fear of disappointment. As it turned out, he was right to think so.
"I haven't been divorced yet, so I haven't thought about it that much, plus I've been having a bad time lately, and I'm not in the mood to think about those things, but I also want to have someone I can trust, and I don't have to be tough when I'm sad, that's what I mean." Tang Luoran continued, her gaze beginning to dodge.
Jiang Hanchen blinked, still very happy in his heart, and he did not hesitate to give the exact answer, "Of course, as long as you need it." β
He was her dependence.
