53 World 4 Chapter 50

Chapter 50.

During the recent rainy season, Tangli often coughs, and everyone in the family was worrying about her, while everyone else was worried about Tang Li, she was sitting leisurely on the balcony drinking tea to soothe her throat.

Her thick long hair was held up by a hosta, and her thin figure showed a bit of weakness. She was wearing an off-white knitted sweater, sitting cross-legged on the carpet, her long legs covered by the thin quilt, looking elegant.

When Lan Rujue went upstairs and opened the door, she saw such a beautiful figure.

Just like the lady in the ink painting, she is gentle and elegant, but there seems to be only two words about her: calmness, which makes people very envious.

"Who is it?"

As soon as Tangli turned around, she frowned, looked at Lan Rujue in confusion, and said, "Why is it you?"

"Are you surprised to see me?"

Tangli relaxed and leaned against the soft sofa. She likes to sit on the floor, especially when drinking tea.

Tangli withdrew her gaze from Lan Rujue and said slightly coldly: "Of course it's unexpected. Why does President Lan, who has so many things to do, come to my house all the time recently? She rarely visits me on weekdays."

Lan Rujue took off her slippers and sat cross-legged across from her. Seeing Tangli's leisurely side, she picked up the teapot and heated the teacup, then soaked the cup with the fragrance of tea. She said casually: "My mother has been looking forward to this with all her heart. She asked me to get married, worrying about everything, for fear that something would go wrong in my wedding. Today she came to my aunt again with the guest list to discuss it, and even though I didn't want to come, she brought me here with my ears twisted."

Two cartoon villains instantly appeared in Tangli's mind. Lan's mother was jumping around and talking to Lan Rujue, who was expressionless and pretending to be cool. After seeing her unsociable attitude, Lan's mother went crazy, she twisted her ears and brought her to the door of her house.

Tang Li was amused by her mental image, and couldn't help laughing. The corners of her eyes and brows revealed a trace of coquettishness, and her whole person became lively and fragrant. Her sick appearance was slightly weakened, leaving only her beautiful appearance.

"By the way, do you know a woman named Shi Chaoyan?"

Lan Rujue mentioned a name inexplicably, and her nonchalant expression seemed extremely arrogant. However, Lan Rujue looked like this and was not annoyed at all. Instead, she felt like she was born to be like this.

Lan Rujue saw that Tangli's tea cup was about to bottom out, so she serve some tea for her. Unexpectedly, Tangli and Lan Rujue thought of doing it at the same time.

The two people's fingers touched. Tangli looked up into Lan Rujue's eyes and said with a smile, "I don't know her."

Lan Rujue held her finger and used her other hand to lift the teapot. The fragrance of tea spread from the cup, which made Lan Rujue say: "The tea leaves are fried well."

Tangli swatted her hand away and rolled her eyes: "I personally inspect the tea leaves roasted by others. It would be surprising if the difference is bad."

After Lan Rujue mentioned that name, she never mentioned the second half of the sentence again, which was really appetizing.

But Tangli will not be fooled. If she competes with her to see who is more patient, then Tangli will definitely be the loser.

Anyway, sooner or later, her contact with Shi Chaoyan will be found out sooner or later, so there is nothing to be nervous about.

The one who should be nervous now is Lan Rujue.

Tang Li clinked glasses with her in an awkward manner, and said with a sly look on her face, "Sister Rujue seems to be in a bad mood today?"

Lan Rujue moved her eyes, and gradually raised the corners of her lips. This smile contained an edge. She raised her long legs, and her free and unrestrained feeling suddenly gave her a more dangerous aura.

Lan Rujue's coming to see Tangli today was not as easy as she said. Lan's mother did come to Tang's mother for help with the guest list, but Lan Rujue could accompany her here not because of guest list of the wedding but to meet Tang Li.

Come and meet this woman who makes her more and more curious.

Three days ago, Lan Rujue bumped into Tangli eating with a woman in the restaurant.

At that time, Tangli was noble and cool, with an indifferent look on her face, which almost made Lan Rujue unable to recognize Tangli like this. In fact, there was a big difference from the Tangli in her memory, because Lan Rujue knew that she was a cutie. She has a funny temperament, so when she was a child, Lan Rujue desperately hoped to have a sister like Tangli. She would definitely protect her sister well. It's just that she really can't get along with her neighbor sister Tangli. Although she loves to smile, she always maintains a distance from Lan Rujue, so her dream of having a younger sister was shattered.

Lan Rujue and Tangli just met each other, glanced at Tangli briefly and then left the restaurant.

However, Lan Rujue's memory is very strong. Even if she didn't pay much attention to the woman sitting opposite Tangli, she still remembered that woman's face with her terrifying memory.

Lan Rujue thought carefully for a moment and realized that this woman was not from the circle and she didn't know her.

So she regarded this matter as an unimportant trivial matter, and might soon be forgotten by her.

But, the show is about to begin.

Lan Rujue saw that woman again in the information she got today.

Coincidentally, this woman is Jiang Chen's ex-girlfriend, no, to be precise, she should be his current girlfriend.

Lan Ruju briefly browsed through the information and then put it back into the document bag.

She is more interested in Tangli than Shi Chaoyan.

So, she came to see Tang Li today.

When Lan Rujue received Tang Li's denial, she was not surprised by Tang Li's answer.

She locked eyes with Tang Li and suddenly spoke to Tang Li about her innermost feelings, saying, "What I hate most is when someone lies to me."

Tangli held the teacup in both hands, nodded along with her words, and said, "Sister Rujue is just like me. I hate people lying to me the most."

Lan Rujue clinked glasses with her again, squinted and said, "Xiao Li won't lie to me, right?"

Tangli smiled slightly, her gentle eyebrows and eyes were so beautiful that they couldn't be compared with, "Why do Sister Rujue's words make me feel like you are warning me?"

Lie to you? I must be lying to you. We are destined to be mortal enemies. You are the heroine and I am the supporting actress. I am ready to break up with you at any time.

There was uneasiness in her eyes. Although she was smiling, Tangli looked like a frightened deer. Her eyes that were ignorant of the world were so clear that people would not think bad things about her at all, because of her clear eyes. How could it be an illusion?

Lan Rujue sighed softly, raised her hand to help Tangli arrange the knitted sweater, and when she saw the loosened horn buttons, she thoughtfully buttoned them up for Tangli, and said at the same time: "You and I are already estranged, if I continue to be more cruel to you, wouldn't it mean that we can't even be friends?"

"Strange? No, I've always regarded you as a friend."

Lan Rujue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, leaned slightly closer to Tangli and poked her face, saying: "Stop lying, little liar."

It's precisely because you don't treat me as a friend that I gradually drift away from you.

Tangli felt that there must be something wrong with her ears. How could she hear a hint of doting in the heroine's tone?

Really? This is definitely an illusion!

Tangli looked at Lan Rujue very seriously. Seeing that she was still in the mood to smile, she couldn't help but ask: "Sister Rujue, for the sake of our childhood memories, please answer me."

"What?"

Tang Li tried her best to keep her tone light and determined not to give Lan Rujue the slightest sense of oppression. She smiled sweetly, released her kindness, and said, "Are you a masochist? You just like to be abused."

Otherwise, there is no way to explain it. She has been indifferent to her since she was a child. She estimated that nine out of ten times thet met when she was a child, she would point her butt at her. Anyway, she is not in good health, so she use this as an excuse to ignore Lan Rujue.

In this way, even if she is neighbors with the heroine, their relationship is not as good as that of best friends.

Everything develops according to the plot, so Tangli thinks that it is good to maintain a friendship with Lan Rujue.

Anyway, she will not be merciless when harming her.

But! Ever since Lan Rujue came home that day and invited Tangli to attend her wedding to Jiang Chen, although Lan Rujue behaved within the scope of a normal friend, her actions and tone just now were completely abnormal!

Tangli touched her cheek, and there was only one sentence in her mind, and that was——

She actually poked me in the face!!

Therefore, Tang Li deeply suspected that this abnormal Lan Rujue had another unknown hobby.

Lan Rujue had a rare expression of being unable to express herself. She covered her head and gritted her teeth and said, "Tangli, what are you thinking about?"

"It's all you who's pretending."

Tangli blurted out, but soon realized that there was an ambiguity in this sentence. She waved her hands in a panic, terrified, "No, Sister Rujue, I didn't mean that. I meant that although I was pretending infront of you, but it's not that I have a crush on you."

She looked at Lan Rujue's wide eyes, collapsed and chose to bang her head on the table.

What nonsense did I just say?

What do you mean I don't have a crush on you!

Oh my God, someone come and stab me to death, kill me!

Tangli slowly slid off the table, and finally curled up like a steamed red shrimp. She fell on the carpet, her face expressionless and pretending to be serious.

Lan Rujue watched her go from banging her head on the table to lying on the ground letting herself go. No matter how big her heart was, Lan Rujue was so shocked by Tangli's words just now that her back went numb.

At this moment, Lan Rujue doesn't look like a cold female CEO. The current difficult situation is thousands of times more serious than when Lan Rujue first joined the company.

So Lan Rujue was at a loss as to what to say to ease the awkward atmosphere.

She scratched her face and cautiously leaned forward to ask Tang Li.

Lan Rujue said warmly: "Are you...are you okay?"

Tangli's eyes turned red with shame and anger. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not good at all!"

Lan Rujue was in a state of confusion. It was not like she had never been confessed to before. Every time she was confessed to in high school or college, the scenes were grand. Lan Rujue felt helpless every time because such scenes were not at all touching. Was she touched? It's obviously embarrassing!

But none of the previous confessions could compare to the panic at this moment. Lan Rujue never thought that she would hear such ambiguous language from Tangli's mouth.

It was... it was so dizzying that it almost made Lan Rujue unable to keep calm.

She knelt down and sat in front of Tangli, which was called duck sitting for short.

Lan Rujue tried to help Tangli up, but she hit a snag. She ignored Lan Rujue at all.

She helplessly comforted Tangli and said, "Don't be angry. I know it was an accident just now. In fact, nothing happened just now. I didn't hear anything. Xiaoli, don't be angry. Be careful not to feel well."

Tangli hugged herself tightly with both arms. She stared at Lan Rujue stubbornly and said, "I was really a mouthful just now!!"

"Okay, I believe you."

Tangli sniffed and put her hands on her legs to help her up. She said sternly: "Don't think that if you have an orange character in your name, I will be angry with you, just like you said, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Lan Rujue showed unprecedented cooperation, and her good cooperative attitude instantly coaxed Tangli, barely able to glue Tangli's broken heart together.

Tang Li wiped her tears delicately, and looking at Lan Rujue who was still smiling in front of her, she rushed over in anger and wiped all her tears on her body.

The main reason why she cried was that what she said was too shocking and embarrassing.

It was an irreparable accident!

If Lan Rujue hadn't poked her face to temporarily confuse her, how could she have said such words with a twitch of her head?

"The person who can say such things to the heroine, I am probably the only one in the entire Space-Time Management Bureau who can do such a stupid thing."

I am a gold medal employee, but now I am a gold medal employee. It is simply inferior.

Lan Rujue was knocked down by her, leaning back on the sofa, slightly lazily raising her left leg, and said, "What will you do if Diudiu sees you like this?"

"Are you calling me a dog?"

This was the first time that Lan Rujue felt that Tang Li's angle of finding the key point was very scary. She couldn't laugh or cry: "I didn't mean that, I just said you are very cute, as cute as Diudiu. "

Tangli raised her head from Lan Rujue's arms and asked her warily, "Why do you praise me for being cute?"

Lan Rujue blinked her eyes and said tentatively: "No...can't I praise you for being cute?"

"The word cute is very dangerous! If you touch it, you'll be finished."

Lan Rujue was intimidated by Tang Li, and she no longer looked mature and steady. It was at this time that she truly looked like a twenty-three-year-old person.

"Is it that serious?"

"Certainly!"

Tangli tried to find the problem for Lan Rujue, and wanted to prove that her theory was correct, so she continued: "Praising a person for being cute means that no matter what kind of behavior she does in the future, even if she drinks water and chokes, you will also wonder how she can be so cute. It seems that all the vocabulary has been completely scrapped, and you can only describe her as cute."

Tangli couldn't help but shudder, and quickly left Lan Rujue, staying far away from her.

She said firmly: "Lan Rujue, it turns out that you are the one who plotted against me!"

Her words stunned Lan Rujue. Lan Rujue was sitting upright with a blank expression on her face. Lan Rujue looked a little silly and cute in this way. The strong contrast made Tangli suffocate. She couldn't help but smile and her eyes curled up.

Very good, the blame was successfully transferred.

In this way, Lan Rujue will never think of what she said when she was talking.

But Lan Rujue didn't show any embarrassment at all. She advanced and retreated in a controlled manner, as if what Tang Li said was just a normal sentence.

She shrugged her shoulders and said, "Little liar."

How could Lan Rujue not see that she was pretending to be calm, and even slandering herself without blinking an eye. This will only make Lan Rujue more certain that she is playing tricks on her, and will only believe that she does have her in her heart.

Lan Rujue curled her lips without leaving any trace. Since Tangli wanted to stop mentioning this matter, she should just pretend that she didn't hear it, so as not to embarrass her.

She waved to Tangli and said, "The hair is scattered, haven't you noticed?"

Tangli subconsciously touched her head and found that her long hair was scattered and the hosta had long disappeared. When she looked again, it was actually held in Lan Rujue's hand.

She was puzzled and muttered: "Why did you run away to where you are?"

Lan Rujue said lightly: "I picked it up casually."

Tangli frowned suspiciously, "That shouldn't be the case. My hairpins rarely come loose."

If she doesn't come, Lan Rujue will go find her.

Lan Rujue stood up and sat cross-legged behind Tangli, combing her black hair smoothly with her fingers. There was a sense of satisfaction in her eyes. Maybe Lan Rujue didn't notice it, but in her serious appearance there is actually a girlish heart hidden inside.

Like most girls, she has a hobby of dressing up dolls. Lan Rujue hid all her childhood barbie dolls when she grew up. She felt that they were not consistent with her usual words and deeds, so Lan Rujue didn't want outsiders to know that she also had such a hobby.

Tangli's thick hair completely satisfied Lan Rujue's heart. She gently held Tangli's hair and looked at Tangli carefully with focused eyes. When she saw a small mole at the end of Tangli's eyebrow, Lan Rujue couldn't help but stroke it with his hand and said, "Okay."

Tang Li touched her tied hair in disbelief and said, "You can also wear hairpins and buns."

Lan Rujue spread her hands gracefully and said jokingly: "I learned it after seeing you do it by chance."

"I know you are very smart, please stop showing off."

She returned to the tea table with her back to Lan Rujue.

Just like when she was a child, she always liked to turn her back to Lan Rujue, but at that time Tangli was lying on the ground playing with building blocks, not with her back but her buttocks.

Lan Rujue raised the corners of her lips and said, "Do you know what I knew most about you when I was a kid?"

"Where?"

"Butt."

Tangli almost choked on her tea. She wiped the corners of her mouth and glared at Lan Rujue, saying, "You're not a jerk, you're a pervert, right?"

One thing after another happened today, which allowed Tangli to see another side of Lan Rujue. She was not only old-fashioned, but also perverted.

Lan Rujue chuckled. She lazily adjusted her posture and stared lazily at Tangli's back.

"If I were a pervert, I would be the first to attack you."

"Lan Rujue, you admitted it!"

Lan Rujue smiled and said, "I'm just teasing you."

Tangli hummed softly and urged her to leave in disgust, "You've been staying here, don't you want to go see your mother?"

Lan Rujue looked at the time and couldn't help but said in shock: "Almost two hours have passed?"

"Um."

Lan Rujue couldn't worry about her mother. She stood up and straightened her clothes. The smile on her face softened. Except for the gentle look in her eyes, the smile on her face faded, she returned to the Lan Rujue everyone knew.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Tangli and said, "I am leaving."

"I won't send you."

Lan Rujue raised her eyebrows with interest, and her eyes fell on Tangli's hair. The white jade hairpin in the black hair was particularly conspicuous, and the carved pattern was touched by her fingers not long ago.

That touch reminded Lan Rujue of the smoothness of Tangli's skin, and Lan Rujue pursed her lips.

The hosta was not picked up casually by her.

But when Tangli threw herself into her arms, she glanced at the hosta.

Her mind moved slightly and he made an extraordinary move.

Lan Rujue quickly pulled out the hosta and held it in her hand.

At that time, she saw Tangli's charming appearance when her black hair was spread out. It was a posture that Lan Ruju had never seen before.

Her eyes were still red, as if she was confiding, or coquettish with her. And the sultry look when Tangli's hair fell was all stimulating Lan Rujue's heartstrings. If Lan Rujue hadn't had strong willpower, she would have really wanted to pick up a strand of Tangli's hair and smell the fragrance of Tangli.

Lan Rujue closed her eyes to cover her emotions.

She had just walked a few steps when she suddenly stopped and said, "Xiao Li."

"What?"

She composed herself and said, "Do you still remember Shi Chaoyan I mentioned to you before?"

Tangli turned the tea cup and smiled, "Remember, who is she?"

Lan Rujue put her hands in her pockets, looked at Tangli's back quietly, and told the truth in an orderly manner. "My suspicions are correct. Jiang Chen has really done something wrong. This woman named Shi Chaoyan is his current girlfriend."

Tangli pretended to be surprised. She knocked her cup angrily and said, "How could Jiang Chen be so bad! Unfortunately, I spoke for him before, and the two of us almost got angry because of him. Sister Rujue, Jiang Chen does this to you, what are you going to do?"

Seeing her superb acting skills, Lan Rujue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why do you look angrier than me?"

"He betrayed you and lied to you!"

Tangli rolled her eyes and said, "Didn't Sister Rujue say that you don't like someone betraying you or deceiving you?"

"Did you hear that time when I talked to your mother?"

Tang Li was surprised, "Have you discovered me?"

"It's hard for a dirty little cat not to be discovered by me."

Lan Rujue walked forward step by step, her face was gloomy, her footsteps were not heavy, but Tangli felt the intimidation coming towards her face.

Tangli raised her eyes to look at Lan Rujue, not understanding the reason for her sudden approach.

Soon, Tangli saw Lan Rujue's smile, which was very shallow but also very beautiful.

Just listen to her say: "Xiaoli, remember my words, I hate it when someone deceives me or betrays me."

"So are you willing to accompany me to meet this woman Shi Chaoyan?"

"See her?! Why do you need to see her?"

Lan Rujue half-crouched, looking closely at Tangli with smiling eyes. Seeing her panic for a moment, Lan Rujue smiled even more calmly.

She said: "Ask her if she wants to take Jiang Chen to escape from the marriage."

Tangli, since you said you don't know Shi Chaoyan, I'm looking forward to your next acting scene.

You little liar, let's see when you show your true colors.
