Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 271 Dong Nianshuang’s Love

Lang Ruoxian walks among a group of people. He notices Dong Nianshuang’s gaze and tilts his head to glance.

“Lang Ruoxian...” Hua Yan also sees him.

Dong Nianshuang almost stands up and goes to greet Lang Ruoxian, but she doesn’t do so, not because she refrains in time, but because Lang Ruoxian turns a blind eye to her after glancing at her and goes straight out.

“What’s wrong with you?” Hua Yan sees her eyes suddenly become dim and wonders. “Have you met Lang Ruoxian?”

Dong Nianshuang immediately shakes her head. “No, I suddenly feel sick in my stomach.”

“Does it matter?”

“I am fine. It’s an old problem.”

Dong Nianshuang takes a glance secretly and sees that Lang Ruoxian has left the hotel without looking at her from beginning to end.

“Do you have to go to the hospital?” Seeing her look so pale, Hua Yan asks again, “Is your stomach not good at ordinary times?”

“Actors all have such professional illness.” Dong Nianshuang pats her face and looks like gathering her energy. “Drinking something hot, I will be fine. By the way, it seems that Tang Consortium hasn’t run well recently.”

Hua Yan calls the waiter to serve her a cup of hot cocoa. “It’s not very good. Even if it can survive, it will be weakened.”

“Have they offended anyone?” Dong Nianshuang lowers her voice and asks curiously. “I heard from the director in the crew that Tang Family was avenged.”

Hua Yan smiles. “Who do you think in Yanjing can retaliate against their family?”

“Is it...” Dong Nianshuang covers her mouth. “It can’t be? Isn’t that one who has always been good to Tang Duo?”

“However good he treats Tang Duo, he will treat his own children better.” Hua Yan raises his hand to touch her head. “So curious?”

Dong Nianshuang smiles shyly. “You know, I used to be jealous of Tang Duo. She was so beautiful and had a good family background. In fact, I wanted to be friends with her at first, but unfortunately our two families would never be friends.”

Seeing Hua Yan keep silence, Dong Nianshuang thinks of something. “Sorry, shouldn’t I mention Tang Family in front of you...”

“It’s OK. It’s all over.” Hua Yan smiles. “What do you think about the engagement I just said?”

Dong Nianshuang pauses and lifts up with a sweet smile. “I don’t mind! You can set a date, but you’d better set it at the end of the year or early next year.”

Hua Yan thinks the date is a bit late. He just frowns, and then Dong Nianshuang goes on saying.

“I have too much work to do in the second half of the year. Both movies will be filmed in remote mountains and forests. At the end of the year, there will be an award ceremony and I have to go abroad to shoot advertisements. So the time is too short, you know I have out of the circle for more than a year and now I have to increase my exposure rate.”

Hua Yan thinks for a moment. “OK, then don’t choose the end of this year, for it’s too cold. We just set it in next April and you remember to spare the time.”

“OK!” Dong Nianshuang folds her hands. “I hope I can get an award by the end of the year. This is the best engagement gift I will give to myself.”

Hua Yan looks at her as if he looks at a child. “You will certainly succeed. You will definitely become a movie queen!”

When Tang Yu comes to meet Lang Ruoxian, he is extremely cordial, as if they were not the ones who had caused so much trouble to the second branch of Tang Family.

“Ruoxian, think it over. If you sign on this, you will lose more than a billion yuan!”

Lang Ruoxian looks at him and signs his name without hesitation. “If I don’t sign it, how will you explain to Uncle?”

“Ah, you young people are impatient!” Tang Yu takes the document over. He looks at it carefully and hands it to his assistant. “You say, why did you provoke Tang Rui?”

“My dad loves my youngest brother most, otherwise this time your company will not be like this...”

Lang Ruoxian raises his eyebrows. “I don’t quite understand what cousin means.”

“Haha! You know it very well in your heart.” Tang Yu stands up, “Well, I won’t hold you up. Since the contract has been signed, I shall go first. However, there is a saying that there is no eternal enemy, and I hope we can have a good cooperation next time.”

Lang Ruoxian makes a gesture of asking him to leave and Shu Sheng shows Tang Yu out.

“Young Master, is he warning you?”

“Not him, but Tang Ming.” Lang Ruoxian throws away his pen. “Don’t worry about the first branch of Tang Family. Tang Ming will leave office soon. They will be busy enough with their own affairs.”

Shu Sheng nods. “How about the money?”

“Leave it.” Lang Ruoxian knocks on the table. “It’s not time to use it. What is the most profitable project for the company now?”

“We have been the agent of the luxurious furniture abroad. At present, its market share in the luxurious market has reached 40%.” Shu Sheng puts a contract on the table. “A flagship store will open the day after tomorrow. The public relation office hopes that you will go there in person.”

Lang Ruoxian nods. “OK, you can arrange it.”

Tang Consortium’s shares have plummeted. Lang Ruoxian’s appearance in public can appease those shareholders. Moreover, the flagship store opens in Tang Consortium’s shopping mall, and even the shopping mall can get publicized.

“But...” Shu Sheng glances at him. “Dong Nianshuang will go there, too. She is the spokesperson.”

Lang Ruoxian doesn’t say a word with a cold face. Although he stands with Dong Nianshuang on the opening day, he had no communication with her and even doesn’t look at her. When the reporter takes the photos, he asks the two to be closer to each other to show intimacy. But the reporter is so frightened by Lang Ruoxian’s cold stare that he almost throws the camera out.

“Mr. Lang...” When it finishes, Dong Nianshuang stops Lang Ruoxian in the parking lot and looks at him with grievance. “Mr. Lang, are you dissatisfied with me as the spokesperson?”

Lang Ruoxian steps back and stays away from her. “It’s not the first time you know that our family are not satisfied with you.”

Dong Nianshuang is stunned. “You’re not a member of Tang Family...”

“My wife is, so am I.” Lang Ruoxian looks at him impatiently. “Your contract with our company is only one year. If you are anxious, you can break the contract. I will not ask you to pay the liquidated damages.”

Dong Nianshuang’s heart seems to be blocked with a stone and she cannot breathe. “Lang Ruoxian! You hate me so much? Or because Tang Duo said something in front of you?”

“You are sick.” Lang Ruoxian simply glances at her coldly and lifts his feet to get into the car.

Dong Nianshuang suddenly bends down. Lang Ruoxian thinks that she is about to fall and stops immediately. But the woman only raises her hand, and then glares at him with red eyes, leaving.

“Young Master, there seems to be a reporter.” Shu Sheng notices a light in a car not far away, but the car has already left.

Lang Ruoxian looks sullenly. “Watch out, if someone rumors online, you must remove those posts immediately.”

When he gets home, he is still dark-faced. Bai Susu thinks that he is angry because of the company’s business. But Yan Hua knows him very well. When she sees the appearance of his going crazy, she knows that someone must have provoked him.

“Who offended you?”

Lang Ruoxian looks at his son beside the dining table. Gungun is busy eating, but he listens with all ears. He must be eavesdropping on adults.

“Gungun, go to do your homework after eating.”

Gungun looks up at Lang Ruoxian seriously. “Dad, tomorrow there will be an exam, so today there is no homework.”

“Then don’t you need to review?” Lang Ruoxian thinks that his silly but sweet son has become more and more disobedient recently.

“I never review!” Gungun puts down the bowl. “Have you ever seen anyone who can score 60 still need review?”

Lang Ruoxian looks at Yan Hua, and Yan Hua shrugs. “Your son scores about 60 every time. Don’t you know?”

He really doesn’t know...

“Then you go to play.” Lang Ruoxian puts down his chopsticks. Gungun still wants to challenge his father but he is dragged away by Wuyou.

Bai Susu coughs twice. “Gungun doesn’t like to learn. I think he just needs to have good values. Look at Tang Cao, he also failed the exams when he was a kid.”

Lang Ruoxian is speechless. His unlucky brother-in-law is also not here today.

When the couple close their room door in the evening, Lang Ruoxian tells Yan Hua that he met Dong Nianshuang in the opening of the store. He looks to feel sick about her.

Yan Hua thinks for a few seconds, and glares. “I think that she really likes you!”

When she finishes saying, she feels cold around. It seems that the temperature in the room quickly drops.

“What are you thinking...” Yan Hua tugs at the man’s sleeve and Lang Ruoxian looks at her gloomily. “I am thinking how to kill her.”

Yan Hua laughs drily. “Well, let’s talk about Gungun!”

“I don’t mind how many points he gets in the exam, but he has to learn as long as he stays in the school.” This is the minimum requirement of Lang Ruoxian.

“Don’t worry. It’s not like that.” Yan Hua says, “He just writes so much on the exam. It seems that he will finish writing if he can score about 60 points. I asked him why not just write nothing. He said that failing the exam would affect the teacher’s bonus.”

Lang Ruoxian rubs his eyebrows. “How about Wuyou?”

“Every time she will score 100...”

Only later does Lang Ruoxian know that even if his son finishes doing all the paper, he won’t be able to score 100, that is but only 80 or so. Yan Hua thinks this is normal. After all, when he tested IQ in his childhood, Gungun was just an ordinary child.

If an ordinary person doesn’t work hard, his performance will naturally be mediocre.

Knowing that Gungun has not wasted his time in school, Lang Ruoxian doesn’t talk to his son, but when the summer vacation begins, Gungun comes to him though he doesn’t go to talk to Gungun. This is a later story. Let’s talk about the headline of the next day first.

“Young Master, someone has released the photos of you and Dong Nianshuang.” Early in the morning, Shu Sheng shows Lang Ruoxian the photos on the Internet.

In the photos, he is very close to Dong Nianshuang. Dong Nianshuang’s hands are on his shoulder. The two seem very intimate.

“It is a dislocation photo-taking.” Shu Sheng says, “We have already let them remove the photos, but someone acts more quickly than us.”

Hua Yan hangs up and calls Dong Nianshuang.

“Don’t worry. I’ve handled all the photos online.”

“Well, I know it’s a dislocation photo-taking.”

“It’s OK. What time will you finish work in the evening? I will pick you up. OK! See you tonight.”

Dong Nianshuang puts down her mobile phone and looks at herself in the mirror. Suddenly she throws the hairpin on her head onto the ground.

“Sister Nianshuang...” The young assistant just comes in and gets a fright.

Dong Nianshuang covers her chest and gasps for several times. “It’s okay. Call a makeup artist to help me comb my hair again.”

“Oh... OK.”

She doesn’t want to cheat herself. She loves Lang Ruoxian. She loves a married man!

“Haha...” Dong Nianshuang smiles. “Tang Duo, why do all the men I like have something to do with you, formerly Hua Yan, now Lang Ruoxian...”

She clenches her fist firmly and then loosens it. “But it doesn’t matter. Hua Yan could abandon you at that time, and so can Lang Ruoxian. I don’t believe that I will never compete with you!”
