Of course Jiang Chen couldn’t stay on Qin Island for long. After three days, he set off back to East Sea.
Li Shuru didn’t go with him, staying behind to spend more ti with her family.
On the sa day Jiang Chen left, Liu Hongzhi also flew back to the United States, just one after the other.
n always seem to work a bit harder than won, working hard and striving, otherwise how could the family behind them enjoy stable happiness?
But even so, won sotis don’t notice at all and don’t appreciate it, yet still doubt if they’re infertile.
Sigh~~~
"Guo’er."
"Auntie."
"Guo’er!"
"Auntie!"
"Guo’er——"
"Auntie——"
Along with increasingly emotional calls, the nominal aunt and nephew sped up from a slow walk to a run, then embraced tightly.
The fact is, whether one is disabled or not doesn’t really affect one’s sex life much. As long as there’s one hand, it’s enough.
Technology changes life indeed.
Look, on the mountain, one can only fetch water, chop wood, practice swordsmanship, and then help so master without an air of dignity to buy wine down the mountain. But here, you never feel bored, even when alone.
Daoist Duanmu hasn’t changed at all, she is becoming more and more integrated into modern life, especially the chip crumbs by her mouth, adding to the feeling of a lazy stay-at-ho girl.
She sat with her legs folded on the sofa, both feet up, probably no one at ho, so she was quite at ease. The "fashionable" round-neck sweatshirt was no longer a strong mismatch on her; she looked at Jiang Chen who returned without prior notice, with not a trace of surprise on her bewitchingly beautiful face.
She was holding a bag of chips in her hand.
Hmm.
Cucumber flavor.
Eye contact.
Jiang Chen felt a sense of helplessness.
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder in a marriage...
Well.
Not very applicable here. He indeed knows the Daoist sister’s personality, but ever since she ca down from the mountain, they’ve hardly been apart, never separating for this long. Now that he’s back, how co there’s not a ripple of emotion?
A sense of frustration arose involuntarily.
Of course.
Boss Jiang always maintains a calm exterior, and coupled with his naturally positive spirit coming into play again, he turned a blind eye to the Taoist’s "indifference," spreading his arms, imitating scenes from television.
"Not even a hug?"
He sure knows how to create an exit for himself.
A hug was definitely impossible, but Tanki Liuli did react, pursing her lips gently, appearing to welco Boss Jiang’s return.
Jiang Chen wasn’t offended, nor did he insist, naturally dropping his arms and walked over to sit beside her.
"Don’t tell you’ve just been eating these at ho alone?"
Two large bags of snacks on the coffee table.
"Cook noodles."
Crunch.
Tanki Liuli placed another piece of chip in her mouth.
Can’t figure out why girls like cucumber flavor.
"Wonder... how have things been lately?"
Jiang Chen chatted, obviously originally wanting to ask if she missed him, but swallowed it back, felt it unnecessary.
Knowing Daoist Duanmu’s personality, not one for words, certainly wouldn’t speak if asked, but surely have a place for him in her heart.
If longing had a sound, it would be thunderously loud!
"How about you?"
See.
Not being self-sentintal, right?
Tanki Liuli actually asked back.
So people, no matter the turmoil in their hearts, would just sit quietly, curl up, eat cucumber-flavored chips, and watch The Return of the Condor Heroes, not letting anyone know.
"Quite smooth."
Facing won, one must hold up, no matter what they’ve been through, maintain a serene deanor, that’s what a man is about. Comrade Jiang Chen thoroughly implents this principle, unwilling to worry the Daoist sister.
He grabbed a packet of nuts, watching TV.
And really.
It was only then he noticed that the "Guo’er" on screen was played by Huang Zhongshuo, whom he had briefly t at Apang Palace.
As an actor, Huang Zhongshuo’s reputation is mixed, quite controversial, whatever he acts in, people criticize, much like those who can sing, dance, rap, and play basketball, yet still get criticized...
Of course.
Having chosen to be a public figure ans accepting criticism.
Though there was a little mishap at Apang Palace, Jiang Chen holds no personal grudge towards Huang Zhongshuo, as his handling of the situation then was comndable, suggesting his new girlfriend pay the bill.
Although there was no shortage of scolding and criticism, to beco an award-winning actor, one must have so talent. Huang Zhongshuo’s acting certainly wasn’t too terrible; in his mid-term work, The Return of the Condor Heroes, his performance was decent.
But it’s not important.
People who like this version of The Return of the Condor Heroes are probably not watching it for him as the male lead.
As a classic IP, The Return of the Condor Heroes has been remade countless tis, yet out of the many versions, if one were to vote for the most well-known, it should be the one Tanki Liuli is watching.
There’s no other reason.
It’s all thanks to the female lead.
"She’s not as pretty as you."
Jiang Chen watched the TV, crunching on nuts, and said.
As for complints, Tanki Liuli is always immune, no matter how lofty the praise. Regarding the lingering, intricate love stories in it, she’s certainly not interested, asking a question that nearly choked Jiang Chen.
"How do they fly?"
"..."
Jiang Chen was speechless for a mont, then said: "Didn’t you say there’s no martial arts secret manual? They can still perform Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and Wave-rider Micro-step."
Seems like it got a bit mixed.
It’s fine.
Perhaps Daoist Duanmu has watched The Eight Trigrams of Heavenly Dragon too.
