Chapter 284 Return to Twenty Years Ago (19)
The breezy night.
After finishing his work, Ji Zeqiu got into his agent's car and came to a very private club.
It was the birthday of an artist in the circle and many people were invited to attend. Ji Zeqiu was one of them.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Shen Qingtang getting out of the car behind him, coming to the party just like him.
Shen Qingtang raised her eyes and was stunned for a moment after seeing Ji Zeqiu. Before she could recover, Ji Zeqiu walked towards her.
Her hand holding the handbag tightened, and her heart beat suddenly faster in her chest.
“Are you here for the party too?” Ji Zeqiu asked.
The violent beating of his heart could not be suppressed. Shen Qingtang's cheeks turned dark red and he nodded lightly.
Because they had the same destination, the two entered the club together and headed to the party box.
On the way over, Ji Zeqiu mentioned the last time he invited her to Ji's Entertainment, "I asked you before if you wanted to join Ji's Entertainment. How are you thinking about it now?"
"I... haven't yet Think about it..." Shen Qingtang's eyes flashed.
"Do you have any concerns about the Ji family? If you don't mind, you can tell me." Ji Zeqiu asked again.
"No, it's my problem..." Shen Qingtang bit her lip lightly, a trace of hesitation flashing in her eyes.
During this time, she has been torn between changing jobs to join Ji's family and going abroad for further study.
As soon as she closed her eyes when she went to bed at night, what Sister Han said came to her mind - "Don't let personal feelings affect your career."
If it had been before, she would have never done anything. She had no hesitation in choosing to go abroad, but now, she hesitated about Ji Zeqiu.
Whenever I think about not being able to see him again after going abroad, I feel an unspeakable sadness in my heart.
Perhaps as Sister Han said, she fell in love with him...
The thoughts in Shen Qingtang's mind were confused into a ball of twine, and he didn't know what to do at all, even under his feet The pace also stopped unconsciously.
The hand on her side clenched tighter and tighter. It wasn't until the pain brought her back to her distant thoughts that she realized that she had stood there for a long time.
She raised her head in panic and subconsciously looked for Ji Zeqiu.
She stood silently in a daze. He must have felt that she was strange, and he might have left in boredom.
When you get to the box later, find him first and apologize to him.
But when Shen Qingtang saw Ji Zeqiu, who was supposed to leave, standing with her, his body suddenly froze, "You... didn't leave?"
Ji Zeqiu leaned against the wall and didn't speak, just waiting for her quietly.
After seeing her thoughts finally come back, he raised his eyes slightly and fell on her, "I see you are so absorbed in thinking about things, I don't want to disturb you, and leave you here alone." It’s not good either.”
And my mother said that when walking with a girl, you should never leave the other person behind and walk in front alone.
Because of this incident, he was scolded by his mother many times before.
Shen Qingtang's heartbeat suddenly stopped for a beat, and her half-open lips forgot to close for a long time. She was stunned for a long time before she hurriedly looked away, and her ears that were covered under her long hair were quietly blushing.
He was always so polite and took care of her feelings in places that others wouldn't notice.
Not only on the set, but also on variety shows to help her solve problems.
How could she not be moved by such a person?
"I'm sorry, I was thinking about something just now, and I didn't mean to leave you alone." Shen Qingtang apologized to him hastily.
Ji Zeqiu just smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."
His smile was gentle and indifferent, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction on his face.
Could it be that... she has a place in his heart, so he helps her repeatedly? Could it be that...he actually likes her a little bit?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingtang's heart was beating fast, and even his throat was a little tight.
She rubbed her hot cheeks and took a deep breath. As if she had made up her mind, she looked at Ji Zeqiu with a firm expression, "I have something to tell you after the party is over. You Can you stay and wait for me?”
Ji Zeqiu looked surprised and was stunned by the serious look in her eyes. After a moment, he nodded in agreement.
......
The flashing lights were shining in the box. There were not many people attending the party, but it was still very lively.
The atmosphere of the party is luxurious and romantic, making people immersed in it.
Everyone was either chatting with friends or playing games. Only Shen Qingtang was sitting quietly in the corner.
The expression on her face was calm and indifferent, but the pounding heart in her chest revealed her nervousness, and there was a trace of cold sweat on her palms.
This tension lasted until twelve o'clock in the evening, when the party ended.
The people in the box had almost dispersed, and she glanced at Ji Zeqiu, who was waiting for her not far away.
Before passing, Shen Qingtang picked up the wine on the table and poured it down his throat.
Drinking makes you bold.
"Teacher Ji, I have something to say to you." She stared at Ji Zeqiu with burning eyes.
"Huh?" Ji Zeqiu looked at her.
Shen Qingtang took a deep breath.
Say it.
Maybe Ji Zeqiu also likes her a little bit?
Otherwise, how could he keep helping her?
Shen Qingtang's heartbeat became more intense, and even her eardrums were filled with her heartbeat, "Actually, I like..." You have been with me for a long time.
“Dingle bell…”
The sudden call interrupted the courage she had finally mustered up, and the words she had not finished speaking came to an abrupt end.
Ji Zeqiu looked at the call on his mobile phone and frowned, but he did not answer the call, but looked at Shen Qingtang, "What did you say you like just now?"
Shen Qingtang opened his mouth, but the rest of the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't come out several times.
She sighed secretly and shook her head, "You'd better answer the phone first."
"Okay, wait for me for a while." Ji Zeqiu answered the phone and walked away. Walk everywhere.
Shen Qingtang stayed where he was, scratching his hair in annoyance.
How about taking another sip of wine to strengthen your courage?
Thinking like this, she raised her eyes to look at Ji Zeqiu, but she caught a glimpse of the shy yet gentle expression on his face, and was instantly stunned.
He didn't know what he was talking to the person on the other end of the phone. The red ears revealed the shyness in his heart, and sometimes his eyes became very gentle.
That was something she had never seen before.
Is the person calling someone he likes? Or girlfriend?
That’s right.
It seems that she hasn't asked him if he has a girlfriend. What if he has someone he likes?
Shen Qingtang froze in place, and the enthusiasm he had just wanted to confess was extinguished by cold water.
The small glimmer of hope that rose in my heart was like a punctured balloon that quickly shriveled up and flew away into the air.
She left before he finished the call.
