Wen Shan stumbled suddenly, nearly falling flat on her face.
Mom, mom, mom... She was actually his mother?!
Madam Qianyi gently wiped away her beautiful tears with a handkerchief and touched Wen Shan's handsome face, 'I'm sorry, Shan'er, your mom has been very irresponsible...'
Wen Shan was dumbfounded for a long time before he let out a laugh, 'How... You came back before I even went on stage to perform?'
Didn't his sister say that his mother would only see him and come back when he stood on the music hall stage, playing the piano masterfully?
The thin and dry assistant standing behind Madam Qianyi chimed in, 'Please understand the madam, she suffered from a serious illness over a decade ago, almost died, and lost her memory at that time. It's only been a short while since she regained her memory, and she came back to find you all.'
'Amnesia?' Wen Shan's mouth gaped open.
No way, the most melodramatic plot from TV dramas actually happened?
Mom had amnesia for over a decade?
Just regained her memory?
'You, you are really my biological mother?'
She was so glamorous, how could she be his mother?
Madam Qianyi laughed, tapping her son's chest with charm, and joked, 'Silly boy! Do you doubt it because mom looks too young? When I gave birth to you, I almost died from dystocia, it was like turning a circle at the gate of hell...'
Before Qianyi could finish her lines, Wen Shan had already excitedly hugged her, choking up, 'Mom! I finally have a mom now! Mom...'
Qianyi stood still in her son's embrace.
Was she being too despicable?
Did she have to use lies and acting to deceive her own biological son?
After stiffening for a second, Qianyi, like all the kind mothers in the world, gently patted her son's back and said softly, 'Be good, my son, from now on, mom will never leave you again...'
Backstage at the Golden Emperor Nightclub.
Wen Ling, Xiao Sa, Xiao Chun, Lan Qi, along with several band members, were gathered together discussing the program for tomorrow's preliminary selection.
Everyone had different opinions, and they couldn't decide on the style of the song and the dance.
'Here it comes! Everyone, come and get it! Delicious chicken soup wontons are here!' Su Ou rushed in with a bunch of food bags, wiped the sweat off her face, and called everyone to have a late-night snack.
'Wow, it smells so good, I'm so lucky today, getting such a nice late-night snack?' Xiao Chun excitedly exclaimed as he approached for the first time.
'Don't be shy, everyone, sister is treating you to a late-night snack today!'
Su Ou generously called out, while Lan Qi rolled his eyes in annoyance, 'Hmph, what do you mean you're treating? It's me paying with my smiling money, okay?'
Pfft...
Xiao Chun spat out the first bite of wonton, 'Hey buddy, can you please not use such a ambiguous term as 'selling smiles'?'
Wen Ling waved her disposable chopsticks and said heartily, 'Everyone, eat quickly, we need to keep working after eating well. If we don't practice well tonight, we won't sleep!'
'Ah...' Everyone groaned.
So having a bowl of wontons isn't that easy; it comes with the cost of losing a night's sleep!
It was one-thirty in the morning when they finally decided on the program and practiced it several times. Su Ou dragged the sleepy Lan Qi, and Wen Ling, as if electrified, gestured the dance moves she designed, and went back to their rented room.
So quiet.
At one-thirty in the morning, there was no one on the streets except for the streetlights.
A person was sitting on the steps downstairs, who stood up abruptly as the three of them approached, 'Ling... Why did you come back so late?'
Su Ou nudged Wen Ling beside her, 'Hey, your Ah Kai is here...'
'What? Ah Kai? Why... why are you here at this time? Look at my phone, it's almost two o'clock, have you been waiting here all this time?'
Su Ou smiled at Liao Kai, while Lan Qi barely opened his eyes and mumbled, 'Wow, another man... How many men does Wen Ling have?'
'Shut up and go to sleep!' Su Ou roughly pulled Lan Qi and rushed upstairs.
Liao Kai asked, 'Who is he?'
'Him? Oh, Lan Qi, he's, he's, he's...' How to say? Should she tell Liao Kai that Lan Qi was a friend she picked up in Singapore? Would Liao Kai believe such a fantastic story?
'He's... he's Su Ou's boyfriend, haha, yes, he's her boyfriend.'
Liao Kai smiled gently, his large hand caressing Wen Ling's hair, and said affectionately, 'I haven't seen you for several days, and I really miss you. The work in the company is very exhausting and busy during the day, and I only have time at night. Unexpectedly, I've been waiting here since eleven o'clock... Ha, Ling, I miss you so much...'
Saying this, Liao Kai gently hugged Wen Ling, deeply smelling her scent.
Wen Ling was passive, like a machine, stiffly leaning against his chest.
'Ling, did you miss me?'
'...Um...' After hesitating for ten seconds, Wen Ling hesitantly grunted, constantly questioning herself in her mind: Wen Ling, can you honestly say whether you have seriously thought about Ah Kai these past few days? Oh my god, it seems not! No, not just seems, but actually, I haven't missed him at all! You're done for, Wen Ling! Your thoughts are impure! You're not a good woman anymore!
Liao Kai smiled lightly, 'Being able to hold you like this, I feel much more at ease... Ling, I know it's hard for both of us, just endure it a little longer, it will be over soon, a year will pass quickly, right? Is the pressure of participating in the audition very high? Don't work too hard, I'll be worried.'
'Liao Kai, I...'
She had only said half a sentence when her mouth was kissed by Liao Kai.
From a distance, a pair of injured eyes watched this scene deeply.
He and she hugged.
The heart was already bleeding.
Now, he was even kissing her...
The eyes were hot and spicy, watching the lips of the man and woman touching each other in the shade of the tree downstairs...
A heavy hammer fiercely chiseled at his heart.
'Drive, go!'
Bai Haonan closed his eyes and ordered gloomily.
Luo Yuan didn't dare to speak, signaling the driver to drive away quickly.
From the rearview mirror, you could see the boss's face covered with dark clouds, really scary.
The boss is really pitiful, the wound hasn't healed yet, and he rushed back from Singapore. No matter how tired, he had to drive to see Wen Ling.
But unexpectedly...
Seeing that scene of the woman cheating...
'Damn, how can this woman be so promiscuous? Could it be that she's a witch who specifically plays with men?' Luo Yuan cursed Wen Ling in his heart.
'Boss, are we going back to the Blue Sea Villa? The doctor said you'd better rest for another week...'
Bai Haonan tensed his chest and gritted his teeth, 'Go to the company!'
'Ah? Go to the company to do what? At this time, almost two o'clock in the morning?'
Don't you need to sleep? I'm about to fall asleep!
Bai Haonan clenched his fists, deliberately ignoring the pain from the wound in his lower back, and said coldly, 'Go to the company! Can't sleep, I'll check the company's documents thoroughly.'
'Oh... then let's go to the company...' Luo Yuan was about to cry.
Others get angry and go drinking, seeking pleasure, shopping. The boss, on the other hand, becomes a machine that doesn't rest when angry.
The hardest is his kind of underling!
Bai Haonan took out hundreds of documents, one by one to check.
After checking, he went to the gym, put on boxing gloves, and regardless of Luo Yuan's persuasion, desperately punched the sandbag.
'Oh my god, who can stop him, this is simply not wanting to live, the boss's wound can't exercise like this...' Luo Yuan was sweating all over, turning circles in the room.
Bai Haonan vigorously waved his fists, drenched in sweat, the pain from the wound in his lower back piercing.
Having her body, but still losing so miserably. She and Liao Kai were still so intimate, still a matching couple, himself occupying the body but not her heart, how ridiculous.
Sizzle... It hurts, the lower back really hurts, probably the wound burst open... But what does that matter, compared to the pain in his heart, that pain is far worse!
'Ah ah ah...' Bai Haonan shouted, gritted his teeth, and desperately punched the sandbag.
The gentle fragrance of Liao Kai's lips entered her mouth, and she was stunned as if struck by lightning, her whole body went numb.
Two seconds later, Wen Ling came to her senses and fiercely turned her face away, avoiding his lips.
Liao Kai was stunned for a moment, then leaned in again, but Wen Ling subconsciously turned to the other side.
Liao Kai's lips, seeking a kiss, stiffened there.
With a slight frown, 'Ling, why... refuse me...'
His heart trembled with a bit of worry.
Wen Ling then realized that she was rejecting Liao Kai!
Oh my god, why did she reject the always restrained Liao Kai!
It turns out that she always looked forward to his passionate kisses, both shy and eager.
'I'm sorry, Ah Kai... I'm a bit tired... You know, the audition tomorrow... I'm under a lot of psychological pressure...'
She awkwardly explained, but didn't dare to look into Liao Kai's eyes.
Liao Kai was silent for half a minute, then laughed at himself, 'You once said, my kiss can relieve your tension and stress, have you forgotten?'
Did she say that?
Oh my god...
'Ah Kai, it's late, you should go back and rest...'
But Liao Kai stubbornly pulled her little face towards him, closed his eyes first as if to prove something, and kissed her lips irresistibly.
Wen Ling tried to turn her face, but couldn't move, his hands tightly holding her face.
She closed her mouth tightly, but Liao Kai stubbornly and fiercely pried open her lips and tongue, not caring how uncooperative Wen Ling's tongue was, passionately and fiercely entwined with hers.
Wen Ling's eyes widened in disbelief, she simply couldn't believe this was Liao Kai, how could this be the always gentle and polite big boy.
She raised her fist to hit him, and he intensified it a few times.
Wen Ling, who had never struggled against Liao Kai, resisted for the first time, struggling against him with aversion for the first time...
Her lips were kissed until they hurt, and after a full two minutes, Liao Kai finally let go.
Wen Ling felt a bit humiliated, almost punching him, really just a little bit away.
'Ah Kai!'
Wen Ling glared at Liao Kai angrily.
Liao Kai slowly opened his eyes, and Wen Ling looked over, suddenly suffocated.
—There was actually a layer of moisture in his eyes.
'Ah Kai, you...'
Did he cry? Why such a sad expression?
Liao Kai sighed slightly, his eyes trembling as he looked at her, 'I'm sorry... It's the first time I've kissed you forcefully... Ling, I'm a bit scared... Don't let me worry, okay? You promised me, you'll never change, you'll always love me like before... Don't change, okay?'
Wen Ling was frozen stiff.
Her heart was in chaos, as if a category twelve hurricane was raging.
Yeah, why did she refuse Ah Kai? Since she was to always love him, why did she feel so annoyed by his pursuit of kisses?
Oh my god, has she fallen? Faced with Ah Kai's affectionate gaze, she inexplicably thought of Uncle Hao!
Hao... Uncle Hao...
