Chapter 40: Do You Think You'll Be Happy?

At sunset, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkles the earth, the golden brilliance is like a painter's palette, rendering the sky into a beautiful picture, the orange and yellow warm light is sprinkled all over the long street, a roadside western restaurant seems extraordinarily quiet, the sun is slanting in and dotted with delicate tableware, and the store plays this soothing and long pure music, adding a little romantic atmosphere to this moment.

In that secluded corner, Wen Liang and He Tian sat opposite each other, enjoying this leisure time after work.

"There is actually a lot of food and fun here in Zhuguang Lane, because of the environment, some artists and friends of film and television companies often check in in the surrounding restaurants, and the taste must be nothing to say, but the price, it must not be cost-effective."

Before the meal was served, He Tianran casually chatted about some trivial matters around Zhuguang Lane, because there are only a few people in the restaurant now, so Wen Liang did not wear a mask to cover his face.

The sunset through the window sprinkled on her long, slightly curly and silky hair, and at the moment she was closing her eyes, looking lazy like a small animal basking in the sun......

"I can hear the word 'cost-effective' in the mouth of a person like Director He, it seems that I am usually not less careful."

Wen Liang opened her eyes, her right hand propped up her chin, and as she tilted her head, her entire pretty face was soaked in the golden sunlight, and her eyes shone brightly.

Knowing that she was joking about her shareholding in Li Lan's company, He Tianran shrugged his shoulders and did not answer positively, but saw her enjoying the sunshine, and couldn't help but ask another question:

"Do you prefer cats or dogs?"

"Huh?"

Wen Liang blinked, thought for a while and said:

"I like them all, but if you have to pick one, I like more dogs."

That doesn't match your personality.

He Tianran scolded in his heart, and naturally continued: "Yes, why?" ”

"Because if you treat the dog well, it will wag its tail with you very enthusiastically, lick your hands and hands, and put its head over for you to touch, if you are a cat...... Well, it's a little cold, no matter how good it is, it won't feel very familiar, you have to beg it to let you touch it, and it feels ...... I don't really like this kind of interaction, I still like the dog's kind of enthusiastic straight ball, simple and pure, how comfortable. ”

Wen Liang pondered for a while and said frankly.

"Haha, it's not like this for all cats......"

But I am a supporting role for you, and I am also investing in your company, and I have also helped you change the marketing direction of the black material, from yesterday to today, let's not say that I will promise each other, and I haven't seen you thank me more.

He Tianran thought silently in his heart, sure enough, people like what they lack, isn't it the other way around.

However, his stake in Li Lan's company is not only for Wen Liang, but also for these superficial efforts, about Wen Liang, this girl, Li Lan has told herself a lot in the past two days, which basically means that this girl has a lot of potential, but she is full of thorns, her personality is very strong, and she is not easy to control.

However, now that the filming of "The Wild Heart" is about to start, naturally we can't let the warmth and coolness be consumed like this.

Now He Tianran also has the right to speak in Wen Liang's career, and Wen Liang is more or less willing to listen to her own words in terms of reason, unlike her and Li Lan, so He Tianran invited this meal today, on the one hand, to solve the confusion in his heart, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as a means for the boss to cultivate feelings with employees.

At this time, Wen Liang asked rhetorically: "What about you?" Do you prefer cats or dogs? ”

"I ...... Like you, I love it. ”

"No, if you're like me, then you'll have to pick one."

He Tianran hesitated for a moment and gave the fourth answer:

"Then I won't pick it, I don't want it at all."

Wen Liang was stunned, He Tianran saw her expression and explained:

"Taking a step back, I haven't raised these two small animals, and I don't have any bias in my heart if I choose who I don't choose, so there's nothing to lose if I don't choose; Further, if I like both, I won't choose, because after I pick one, I can't help but think about the other one I like, what should it do, if this little animal in my hand is more human, knowing that my owner is still worried about other small animals, will I feel pitiful?

So instead of being bothered by this kind of problem, it's better not to let them be taken away by the people they like, maybe it will be a better ending. ”

Wen Liang listened to it: "That...... You can have both. ”

He Tianran reminded: "Didn't you say that you must choose one?" ”

"Ah, yes, yes......" Wen Liang patted his head: "I didn't expect Director He, your idea is quite chic, can I rise to your values?" ”

"Pretty much...... But people are people, animals are animals, and human things are too complicated, but in some ways, I do have a kind of ...... Better die standing than live kneeling? Or is it a shipwreck? Self-denial or self-deception? I can't think of a word that fits me at once, but you should be able to understand it, right? I do have something similar in my personality. ”

Although He Tianran's explanation was vague, Wen Liang nodded:

"I can understand, because sometimes I have an extreme or sharp side to myself, not to say empathy, but there is nothing wrong with understanding what you say."

At this time, a waiter walked slowly, held the silver tray in his hand, and then gently placed it on the table, and in front of the two of them was a French appetizer, French Queen Pastry.

The golden puff pastry is perfectly matched with the tender chicken breast, exuding an enticing aroma, and it is warm to pick up a piece and melt in your mouth after taking a bite, full of aftertaste, and the eyebrows and eyes are full of pleasure.

"Tastes okay, right?"

"Not bad." Wen Liang held the pastry in one hand, wiped the food stains on the corner of his mouth with his fingers in the other, and continued: "By the way, I haven't had time to ask you, yesterday you said that you were in the limelight in front of your father, is this matter so important to you?" Thank you for that alone. ”

"Of course it is."

He Tianran first gave a conclusion, and in the face of Wen Liang's straightforward nature, he didn't think about anything for the time being, but said frankly:

"Because I grew up with a frustration education, and then it led me to ...... Self-esteem is a little inferior, because my father thinks that instead of me showing off my power with the title of a rich second generation outside, and being criticized behind my back, it is better to be degraded to the dirt by him at home, every time the New Year and the festival, when there are more people in the family, the more he likes to educate me, what face, dignity, non-existent, such a me, outside, I am not afraid of what others say. ”

Warm and cool to prepare for a meal of eating.

"Then your mother didn't ......"

"They had the same educational philosophy, and even my mother was a little stricter with me, but this situation got better when I got into high school because they were divorced."

“……”

Wen Liang didn't know how to judge whether this matter was good or bad for He Tianran for a while, but when he thought of He Tianran's image in high school, he felt that there was indeed a reason......

He Tianran also seemed to feel something, and took the initiative to joke:

"So, if we met in high school and I sat down to eat with a campus star like you, then my inferiority complex would be in the dirt...... But ......"

Speaking of which, he paused.

"However, this does shape me into a rich second generation who has no sense of superiority and knows how to behave in the world, and a person who knows how to measure and etiquette in people and things...... Good youth? ”

He smiled, his eyes on the soup served by the waiter, the amber broth glittering in a delicate porcelain bowl, topped with golden cheese and baked in the oven to give off a rich aroma.

But neither of them at the table had the intention of drinking soup, so Wen Liang asked:

"Then you are...... How do you build up this self-confidence now? ”

"First, after being admitted to HKU, I have more time and meet some good people, which is the beginning of my change. Two ......"

He Tianran looked directly at the girl opposite and continued:

"It's now, or when I started in the film and television industry.

The four words of Shanhai Group are equivalent to my father's name, whether it is a company or wealth, he founded and accumulated, they have been bound together, what do I want to inherit, the son inherits his father's business, this is very simple for me, and outsiders have nothing to say, but I want to catch up with him behind him......"

He Tianran shook his head:

"It's hard because that's not my area of expertise, and it's not my area of interest.

Others say that as long as the rich second generation is not tossed blindly, it will definitely be able to be rich over the third generation, although this sentence makes sense, but it is not the whole truth, how boring it is to not toss in the world, you have to turn over when you sleep, don't you? So, I spent my whole teenage years looking for a ...... that I had in me that my father didn't have, and that I could earn money and make achievements that would impress him."

"Movies?"

Wen Liang guessed.

He Tianran nodded, and shook his head again: "To be precise, it's "Future Production", it's MADE IN FUTURE, and it's your group. ”

After listening to Wen Liang, he felt infinite emotion in his heart, and said with feeling:

"It seems that everyone in this world has their own difficulties, and every family has a scripture that is difficult to read."

He Tianran smiled:

"Now you know that you fought for me yesterday, and I want to thank you, right?"

The girl recalled: "I chatted with the big boss yesterday, and I feel that he is very good, maybe I don't have much contact with him, no matter what, you, who is a son, must know him better than me." ”

The main course is served with a French steak of great colour and aroma, the thick beef is fried in a high-temperature pan, the skin is charred, the meat is tender and juicy, and the classic French wine braised sauce makes the steak even more delicious.

A bottle of red wine was slowly opened by the waiter, the mellow aroma was intoxicating, at the moment it was dark, with the evening breeze outside the window, the aroma of wine and meat permeated the air, which was appetizing.

He Tianran picked up the knife and fork, "Eat, I said so much unconsciously, I'm hungry." ”

"Hmm!"

In this kind of open heart, the distance between the two narrowed again, He Tianran cut off the steak and put it in his mouth, and after chewing, he asked:

"By the way, the last time I took you home, do you remember what I told you in the car?"

Wen Liang raised his head: "Remember, you said that you wanted to hear about the trip, because you think it is very important to me." ”

"I think? Isn't it? ”

Wen Liang tilted his head, didn't know what he remembered, and suddenly laughed.

"What's wrong? What do you think of? ”

"No, I just don't know how to express it for a while, so I'll call you Xiao Jia for the time being, passerby A, is it okay?"

"Yes."

Wen Liang took a bite of steak, raised his eyes, and recalled:

"I remember we were eating, I think it was...... Crossing the bridge rice noodles, yes, when I was in Dali, you were sitting opposite me like this, you said...... No, Xiao Jia asked me such a question, and he said, if he chased me, I would not agree. ”

"Poof~"

He Tianran picked up the wine glass and savored the taste of red wine, which entered his mouth, and almost didn't squirt out after hearing this sentence......

"What Xiao Jia said, it's not what you said, what are you doing, don't panic."

The girl looked at him with a playful look.

"I ...... So what do you say? ”

"I said, no."

"Well done!"

He Tianran gave a thumbs up.

"You...... Don't want to hear why? ”

"You rejected me...... Phew, do you need a reason to reject a passerby? Just kidding, what about self-knowledge? Feel free to refuse! ”

Wen Liang glared at him, and He Tianran immediately changed his words:

"Uh, but for ...... reason You want to say, I'm still very curious......"

"I'll just say, it's like two parallel lines that never intersect, and if something doesn't happen, I probably can't think of a reason why I'll like her......"

This......

He Tianran was a little puzzled, and the meaning of Wen Liang's words was pointed.

Literally, if it was a college day, it would be normal for the two to have little intersection, but now......

I'm an adult boss, if you don't cross paths again, it's a bit too much, right?

So, did Wen Liang really say that reason at the beginning, or did he change it temporarily and say it to himself?

Wen Liang was not in a hurry to answer, she observed He Tianran's expression, picked up the red wine glass, and the flame-like liquid jumped in the crystal glass, reflecting her charming smile.

She took a sip gently, and her sexy red lips were tinged with a hint of seduction, which made people's hearts tremble.

"And then I ...... Ahem, that passer-by, what was your attitude after listening to your reasoning at that time? ”

Wen Liang tilted her head, and a strand of long wavy hair slid down her ear and down to her forehead.

"I don't have any attitude, so he asked, what kind of person would he like."

“…… So, what kind of person would you like? ”

Not to mention, He Tianran is really curious about this question.

"Yes, his expression was exactly the same as you do now."

Wen Liang pointed at He Tianran, and the latter suddenly had a black line on his face.

"Oops...... Putting that aside for now, what matters is what you said at the time. ”

The charming and moving female star shook her red wine glass, did not answer this question head-on, but asked rhetorically with a wisp of narrowness on the corner of her mouth:

"He Dao'er, let me ask you a question first."

"Why is this involved me again, isn't it passerby A......"

"Oh, you don't care...... You just have to answer. ”

“…… Okay, you say. ”

Wen Liang kissed his lips and asked slowly:

"Do you think you'll be happy?"

“…… Yes? ”

He Tianran had a black question mark on his face, and he didn't know what the context of this question was related to what Wen Liang said before, he touched his chin and first picked up a stalk:

"First of all...... My surname is He, I am not surnamed Fu; Secondly, I ...... Of course I'll be happy, otherwise what I said so much to do, even if it's not the best time yet, but we're not running towards that goal, so I definitely think I'll be happy, happy hard! ”

Wen Liang listened to his witticism, and his eyes were full of smiles.
