Chapter 1197: I Want to Make You Stay (75)

Not wanting to lie to him, Fang Erlan answered, “Yes.”

Yan Ge did not expect her to be so honest. He asked, “Is it because he had given you a hundred-million-dollar ring and bought you an exorbitantly-priced wedding gown? Is it because he’s richer than me?”

“Do I seem like such a materialistic and superficial woman to you? If it were because of that reason, I would have gotten together with him long ago.”

Fang Erlan did not wish to explain any further, for she felt that Yan Ge would think that she was merely giving him excuses, even if she were to tell him about her and Xiao Chenyang’s previous lifetime.

“Just what is the reason, then!?!” Yan Ge barked, seething with anger. He was clearly agitated by her decision to break up with him.

“It’s because I’ve finally discovered the difference between admiration and love. I’ve also realized who the person who truly loves me is. Let’s continue working with each other amicably and not allow our relationship to affect the production of this television series. I know you’re a very professional actor,” said Fang Erlan, who opened the car door and tried to alight from the van. However, Yan Ge grabbed her wrist and hugged her forcefully.

He said, “If you’re not satisfied with my Weibo post, I can post another clarification. I’ll definitely persuade my mother and convince her to stop being prejudiced against you. Give me some time. Xiao Chenyang has only known you for a short period of time and yet he’s already spent so much on you. He’s just trying to make you fall for him. Once he wins your heart, he’s going to throw you aside. He’s not going to treasure you. Didn’t you see that girl who was beside him when we were at the lake? I’m a man, I understand very well what other men are thinking. When he’s trying to subdue you and woo you, he’ll do whatever it takes to win your heart. Things will be different once he gets his hands on you.”

“I think I know better than you do what kind of a person he really is. Yan Ge, I’ve thought about it carefully. You’ll never understand clearly how I feel. I’ll announce the news of our breakup only after the television series has been broadcast. I don’t want our personal issues to affect the television series. Besides, the investors have invested so much money in the production,” she said, staring at Yan Ge calmly.

She alighted from the van and left without turning back to look at him.

Dumbstruck, Yan Ge watched her leave as misery filled him. He thought that they would end up getting married. He did not expect to lose her so soon.

It happened all too suddenly.

....

Fang Erlan returned to her seat. After trying to calm herself down for two minutes, she called Xiao Chenyang and found that he did not switch off his mobile phone.

She hurriedly ended the call and typed out a text message.

“I’ve already broken up with Yan Ge.”

Her message was delivered and read.

He had already seen her text message.

Fang Erlan began to get nervous and excited. How is he going to reply to me?

She placed her phone down before picking it up again. She still did not receive his reply.

Why isn’t he replying to me?

Fang Erlan looked at Xiao Yue and asked, “What does it mean if someone doesn’t reply to your text message even after reading it?”

Xiao Yue answered, “That’ll depend on who the person is. If the recipient is just an ordinary friend or acquaintance, that just means that he or she finds the text message irrelevant and doesn’t want to reply. However, if you’re close to them, they’re probably thinking of how to reply to you.”

“What if the recipient is in love with me?”

“That’ll depend on the content of the text message.” Xiao Yue chuckled and continued, “Sis Erlan, different content will garner different responses. If the content is irrelevant, he probably wouldn’t reply. If it’s only been a while since you’ve sent the message, he’s probably brainstorming for a reply. But of course, if you sent a message to tell him that you had broken up with your boyfriend, he’ll probably die of joy. If that’s the case, he should be on his way now.”

“On his way?”

“Of course. He’d be desperately eager to see you.”

Fang Erlan sprung up from her seat and patted Xiao Yue on her shoulder. “Xiao Yue, I think that your IQ is slowly increasing. What a great analysis.”

“Sis Erlan, my IQ is high to begin with, alright?”

“Yes, yes, you’ve got brains and beauty.”

Xiao Yue stared at her in shock and asked, “Sis Erlan, why do you seem to be in such a good mood today?”

Instead of answering Xiao Yue’s question, she said, “I’m going to go to work now.”

At the sight of her leaving to get her makeup done, Xiao Yue hurriedly chased after her.

Fang Erlan had never been so agitated and excited before.

She was way more thrilled than she was when she had finally bought her own apartment.

She was looking forward to seeing him again.

Little did she know how elated Xiao Chenyang was the moment he read the message.

He rarely ever smiled. However, he was grinning widely from ear to ear when he read the message.

He almost dropped his mobile phone.

He read the message over and over again before finally coming to terms that she was indeed the one who had sent the text.

How surprising.

He didn’t expect that she would come to a decision so soon and thought that she would need at least a few days.

He proceeded to take a thorough shower and put on his white buttoned shirt, black suit, tie, and leather shoes.

After making sure that he was dashing and all ready to go, he got inside his Aston Martin and drove to the city center.

The air seemed to feel fresher, and the trees were much lusher.

He sped along the streets and toward the filming location.

Xiao Chenyang shifted his gaze onto the window the moment he arrived.

Although the rain had already stopped, the ground was still wet outside.

He put on a pair of shades and alighted from the car.

Xiao Yue had just returned with some burgers from the fast-food restaurant. Upon the sight of him, she exclaimed excitedly, “Cousin!”

Her loud voice captured the attention of everyone else.

Xiao Chenyang smiled at her. Staring at the plastic bag in her hand, he asked, “You haven’t had lunch?”

“Yeah, I haven’t. Sis Erlan told me to go buy some hamburgers. Cousin, have you eaten yet?” asked Xiao Yue, whose heart raced and fluttered upon the sight of him smiling at her.

“No.”

“You can have mine, then. I’ll go downstairs to get another set.”

“Don’t eat those. I’ll take you guys out for some nice food later.”

Xiao Yue’s eyes lit up with joy and she asked, “Really? Awesome! I’m feeling so peckish! Ah, Cousin, you’re the best!”

“Are you guys done with filming yet?”

“No, not yet. They’re still busy filming. We’ll be getting a break after this scene and resume only in the evening. Cousin, I haven’t seen you in a while, where did you go?”

“Nowhere special. I just went to take a breather and unwind.”

“Cousin, do you know that you’re much warmer and friendlier today? You must stay like this all the time from now on,” Xiao Yue said excitedly.

“...”

Xiao Yue took the initiative to give the burgers away to the chauffeurs and bodyguards. “Here, you guys have this. Sis Erlan and I are going to eat something else later.”

“You guys may go back to A City later. I’ll take over from here,” Xiao Chenyang said to the two bodyguards.

“Yes, Mr. Xiao,” they agreed in unison.

Xiao Chenyang looked at Fang Erlan, who was focused on filming and had yet to discover his presence.

Thus, he took a seat on the chair and waited for her quietly.

The smitten Xiao Yue sat beside him and stole glances at him every now and then.
