Chapter 34 (2)
They were near the entrance of the studio. She could hear Little Fatty questioning Lu Yue where was the girl he was supposed to look for. Tong Yao felt like she had found a way out of the awkwardness and was about to yell that she was right here. The man in front her abruptly stopped right then– –Tong Yao, startled, looked up, but could only see the man’s wide shoulder. Before she could react, she heard the man quietly said, “But, I’m sorry.”
Tong Yao: “?”
Lu Sicheng: “I’ll knock first next time.”
Tong Yao: “…………………………………..”
Tong Yao’s brain went blank.
Three seconds later, a bullet comment in block letters flew into her brain– —
Mr. Captain was apologizing.
To Me.
The awkwardness and embarrassment she felt seconds before doubled. She used her hands to cover her face which was so red that it could fry an egg and suddenly squatted down. Her face almost buried between her knees. “What, what’s wrong with you! Why do you apologize so seriously all of a sudden! ! !”
“?”
The man whose back faced Tong Yao turned around and saw her squatting on the ground. His lips twitched and reached down to pull Tong Yao up. Without paying attention to her red face, he simply said, “I thought you needed a serious apology.”
“Right, right, right. I do need one.” Tong Yao gave him a stare. “In ancient times, you would have to marry me.”
Lu Sicheng: “……”
Tong Yao: “……”
Lu Sicheng: “……………”
Tong Yao: “……………”
Lu Sicheng: “The punishment doesn’t seem to fit the crime.”
Tong Yao: “……………………………………………”
Lu Sicheng: “Don’t push your luck.”
Tong Yao was immediately frightened out of her wits. “Sorry!”
Lu Sicheng released her arm and turned towards the studio. Tong Yao dejectly followed behind. She could only commend her tendency to talk nonsense when she got nervous……When they walked in the studio, Little Fatty was the first one to see Tong Yao. He was about to tell the others that they’d finally arrived when he noticed Tong Yao was walking behind Lu Sicheng with her head down. “Tong Yao, what happened to your face?”
His shouting attracted everyone’s attention.
Lu Sicheng turned to glance at Tong Yao. She quickly raised her head, pretending to be calm, pulled her hair to the back of her ears, and cleared her throat, “What about my face?”
“Red.” Lu Yue, who was sitting at the side, said with a stone face. “What did you two do just now?”
Now everyone had their eyes on Tong Yao and Lu Sicheng. If glances had a sound effect, they were making the sound of flying machetes and swords from Kung Fu movies– —
“We ran over here.” Lu Sicheng coolly said, “Aren’t we in a rush?”
Lu Yue: “Why don’t you look like you’ve run?”
Lu Sicheng: “I’ve got long legs.”
Lu Yue couldn’t say anything more.
