Chapter 30#
World 1: The Tragic Supporting Male Lead Changes the Script Online#
Qin Qing looked at Cang Ming, and Cang Ming also looked at Qin Qing silently.
The light air, originally filled with the fragrance of wine, suddenly became thick.
996 stood up like a human, clenched its two chubby paws, and said with full expectation: “Four words—I like you! Very simple, right?”
Qin Qing was the first to look away and looked elsewhere. He swirled the amber-colored nectar in the shallow cup carelessly and said silently: “How can it be simple?”
“It’s very simple! Say it! It will be fine if you say it!” 996 waved its fists excitedly.
“If I say it, what will be my end?” Qin Qing drank the wine with his head tilted back, then turned sideways to look at the couples spinning on the dance floor, so as to avoid Cang Ming’s too deep and unpredictable gaze.
“If you say it, the plot will be over!”
“Then what is the plot?”
“This this…” 996 was speechless.
Qin Qing smiled: “Even if you don’t say it, I can guess. If an ordinary person is confessed to, whether he likes the other person or not, he will be more or less secretly happy. But Cang Ming is different. I talked about poetry with him, he said I was moaning without illness. I watched the scenery with him, he told me there were shadows hidden behind the scenery. He is such a boring person. He has no extra feelings to squander. My confession is a trouble in his eyes. In order to get rid of me, this trouble, he will fire me and let me go far away, right?”
996: “…” Damn it, did Qin Qing secretly read the script?
Qin Qing sipped the wine and smiled lightly: “I don’t like boring people, so I won’t confess. Besides, not liking a person but saying you like them, this is a kind of deception, right? What I hate most is deception.”
996 shouted angrily: “But I helped you just now! You can’t go back on your word!”
“But I didn’t promise to help you.”
996: “…” So angry! I feel like the whole cat is going to explode!
While one person and one cat were arguing, Cang Ming was drinking one glass after another.
The waiter, who was originally walking around delivering wine, could only stand motionless by his side at this moment, holding a tray with both hands, watching as this cold man drank the strong wine mouthful by mouthful.
This person seemed not to feel the spiciness and heat of the strong wine, that was because deep in his heart, there were more spicy, hot, and even painful and tormented emotions accumulated. The waiter thought with sympathy.
Zhou Linlin, hiding behind Cang Ming, also took a glass of strong wine, took a tentative sip, and then gathered the courage to say: “President Cang, I am starting a business, I wonder if you are interested in hearing my plan?”
Cang Ming lowered his eyes to look at Zhou Linlin, and a scorching flame surged in the depths of his pupils, but it also exuded a chilling coldness.
Zhou Linlin was completely frozen. Boohoo, President Cang is so scary! How on earth did Qin Qing manage to be calm and composed in front of him, talking and laughing freely?
Qin Qing, who had come back to his senses, whispered gently: “What plan? Tell me. If the prospects are good, I’ll invest a sum for you.”
Zhou Linlin immediately ran to Qin Qing’s side, took out her phone to show the information, and explained with flying eyebrows.
Cang Ming listened silently for a while, seeing that Qin Qing’s gaze was always focused on Zhou Linlin, he put down the wine glass and said in a deep voice: “I’m leaving first.”
Leaving early was his habit.
The elegant smile, the proper attitude, the seemingly familiar but actually strange distance, Qin Qing was always like this… Cang Ming stood quietly for a while, seeing that Qin Qing was still chatting with Zhou Linlin about that plan, he finally strode away.
Walking to the entrance of the venue, he looked back, his eyes deep and hard to distinguish.
“President Cang, where are you going?” The driver asked respectfully.
Thinking of a certain residence in his mind, but what came out was a sentence that even Cang Ming himself found surprising: “Go find this person.”
He handed the phone to the driver.
The driver looked at the strange face on the screen and nodded: “Okay, I’ll send someone to find him right away.” He was a retired special forces soldier and had his own security company. Finding people was his specialty.
Half an hour later, a black luxury car stopped by the sparkling river.
Cang Ming opened the car door and stepped out, slowly walking to a boy. The boy was squatting on the river embankment, his head buried in his knees, crying miserably and desperately.
His phone was cracked with a few lines, and the screen that couldn’t be turned off automatically showed a ruthless sentence: [Let’s break up.]
Cang Ming looked down at the boy, his face showing no sympathy, no pity, and no concern. He always couldn’t understand this boring world. But he still came here.
“Do you want to win her back?” He asked coldly.
The boy looked up at Cang Ming suddenly, his tear-stained face showing a stunned expression.
If Qin Qing were also here, he would find that the boy was the boyfriend of the girl at the proposal ceremony.
“You, you are…” The boy seemed to find Cang Ming very familiar, and his stunned expression slowly turned into disbelief.
The cool wind with moist water vapor blew in his face, making Cang Ming frown impatiently.
“Do you want to win your girlfriend back?” Cang Ming asked again.
Several sturdy men in black came out of the luxury car and surrounded the two, their sharp eyes vigilantly observing everything around them. This solemn formation, this oppressive momentum, and this handsome and cold face that often appeared in financial news…
The boy stood up quickly, looking at Cang Ming at a loss. He recognized him! This was a person he would never have met in his life!
Cang Ming took out his own phone, played a video, and said in a deep tone: “After you left, she cried very sadly.”
He couldn’t empathize with people, but strangely, he was very good at grasping other people’s weaknesses.
The boy looked at the phone, and his embarrassed and slightly red face instantly turned pale. His beloved girl was crying, crying her heart out, in a mess, and everyone around was scolding her and humiliating her.
Broken shoe, ungrateful, no one wants… How can these words be so ugly! And how could he just walk away and leave her in such an embarrassing situation.
No wonder she had to break up! He had shattered her heart!
“Want to win her back?” Cang Ming asked the same question again.
Even he himself didn’t understand why he could show so much patience for such a boring matter that had nothing to do with him.
The boy nodded quickly, tears streaming down his face and said: “Yes!”
Cang Ming unknowingly breathed a sigh of relief, and then promised seriously: “I’ll help you.”
After returning from the banquet, Qin Qing took a shower, and sat on the balcony with wet hair, blowing in the wind. The air conditioner was on indoors, and the heat was steaming outside. The fusion of cold and hot brought a wonderful feeling of the body about to melt.
Qin Qing played with a rose blooming by his temple while playing with his phone carelessly.
996 disappeared again, this time it was very angry.
Suddenly, a text message popped up. Qin Qing clicked to view it and found that it was a video sent by Cang Ming.
“Arranging work so late.” Qin Qing murmured and shook his head.
It’s not his fault for thinking this way, it’s just that Cang Ming’s image as a workaholic has long been deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Every message he sent was related to work.
However, this time, Qin Qing was wrong.
After the video was opened, a boy was holding a huge bouquet of roses and shouting at an apartment building: “Doudou, I love you! Please marry me! Doudou, I don’t want to break up, please give me another chance!”
The camera moved up to shoot the full view of the apartment building. Hearing the shouts, people who were watching the fun ran out on the balconies of different floors, but the girl named Doudou never appeared.
The boy shouted for a few more minutes, then turned around helplessly and looked at the person standing aside with pleading eyes.
The camera also moved with it, shooting this person.
Qin Qing raised his eyebrows, extremely surprised. This person would actually be Cang Ming! How could he care about such a boring thing in his eyes?
Before Qin Qing could think deeply, Cang Ming had raised his arm and waved it gently, so the camera moved up and shot towards the sky.
Light spots lit up one by one on the dark sky, and the light spots slowly gathered and turned into a series of color photos. A man and a woman in the photos were either hugging, chasing, or playing. They smiled so happily.
And in reality, these photos must exist. They are the proof of the boy and girl from knowing each other to falling in love. They carry the most beautiful memories of the two.
Such a drone show, its sincerity, its intention, and its cost, were far more than the previous rich second generation’s show.
People standing on the balcony looked up and exclaimed one after another.
The originally dark night sky without stars and moon was rendered so beautiful by the lights of the world.
Qin Qing was stunned, and a wave of wet and hot tide overflowed in his eyes. Such a scene could move his heart the most. And he believed that even a girl whose heart had been broken once would definitely be moved.
Sure enough, the girl who was hiding behind the curtains and secretly looking at the sky also walked to the balcony step by step.
The boy was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and quickly knelt down, holding the roses and shouting: “Doudou, marry me! I love you!”
Qin Qing looked up at him, then smiled and nodded: “Okay, President Cang, take care.”
The girl covered her mouth and cried. Such a proposal came a little late, but it was so grand that the humiliation the girl had suffered was compensated. Look! Her boyfriend is no worse than anyone! Look, her boyfriend still loves her the most!
Pushed by her roommate, the girl came downstairs.
They threw away the roses and hugged each other tightly.
People on the balcony cheered excitedly and gave sincere blessings.
The video ended here, and Qin Qing was still unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
The phone vibrated, and a text message appeared on the screen: [Do you like this scenery?]
Qin Qing looked at this text message, and a wet and sparkling light flickered in his eyes.
He slowly covered his face with his hand, let out a long sigh, and finally pressed the voice button, first laughing low and softly, and finally sighing slowly: “President Cang, you are not boring at all, you are amazing.”
Cang Ming stood on the periphery of the crowd, looking at the tightly embracing couple indifferently. The cheers, laughter, shouts, and blessings around him were repelled by the cold air on his body.
This was a scene he directed, but he couldn’t integrate into it at all.
Just then, a text message came into his phone. He immediately looked down to check, it was a voice message.
After opening it, the speaking voice did not come out, but a short low laugh floated over first, very soft, very light, very pleasant, like a small jade bead, falling into the heart lake and causing ripples.
Cang Ming’s cold eyes suddenly dyed with a trace of warmth.
“You are not boring at all, you are amazing.” This sentence was mixed with a strong smiling tone, one can imagine how happy the person speaking was.
So Cang Ming hooked his thin lips and smiled imperceptibly.
He didn’t know if the lights of the world were beautiful, but he knew how pleasant the sound of a flower blooming was. The strong wine he kept drinking finally had some effect at this moment.
Cang Ming’s bottomless eyes were dyed with some slightly drunk floating, and finally turned into a drunken fiery.
He listened to this language over and over again…
