Chapter 107: Chapter 91 Candlelight_3
Interest? Just don’t turn it into career planning.
If I accidentally groom Xiao Yu into an actress...
emm...
Stars earn way more than doctors, a huge crisis indeed!
Xiao Yu, you mustn’t be led astray!
Just as Meng Lang was planning how to reveal the chaotic nature of the industry to Xiao Yu, citing classics and debating what exactly the relationship between Baizhi and Yapeng was...
"Snap!"
All of a sudden, all the lights went out simultaneously, even the TV dimmed instantly, plunging the entire room into darkness.
"Ah! The power’s out!" Xiao Yu’s exclamation came from the darkness.
It wasn’t just inside; the entire visible area outside the window was also engulfed in darkness, clearly indicating a widespread power outage in the nearby streets.
"Xiao Yu, stay put; I’ll turn on the flashlight on my phone."
The next moment, a bright light from Lin Haitang’s cellphone filled the room.
"Hmm? Meng Lang, what happened to you?"
The sole light shone on Meng Lang’s face, revealing his stunned expression.
"Ah... Oh! I’m fine."
"Hmm! I remember we have some candles at home; wait here, I’ll go find them."
Soon, three faint candle flames lit up, dispelling the darkness in the cabin and revealing Meng Lang’s somewhat amused expression.
Candlelight! There really was candlelight!
I misunderstood you, you are indeed a steadfast materialist, not into fancy tricks.
But next time, could you be more direct? What would happen if the book mentioned "power outage"? Is it that hard?
Or is it because you’re jealous that I’m the protagonist and you’re not, deliberately teasing "myself" in this trivial way?
Brother, that’s just not fun.
I represent millions of brothers after today to collectively denounce you!
Denounce all you want, but we still have to eat; I’ve barely started, and I’m nowhere near full.
Under the dim candlelight, Meng Lang continued to calmly pick up his food.
"Sister, I’m done eating, so I’ll go back to my room to study the script," Xiao Yu said while placing her empty bowl on the table.
"Eh? That was quick. Take a candle with you then; we don’t know how long the power will be out."
The moment Xiao Yu turned to enter her room, Meng Lang might have been mistaken, but it seemed that Xiao Yu gave him a meaningful wink before she turned away.
Er...
I must have seen wrong.
Meng Lang’s hand, picking up the food, involuntarily stiffened, no longer as natural as before.
In the dark world, under the dim candlelight, two people sitting across from each other at the dining table...
With Xiao Yu’s departure, the sudden candlelit dinner seemed to add a touch of ambiguity to the air in the room.
Glancing at Lin Haitang across the table, Meng Lang’s heartbeat quickened.
Under the candlelight, Lin Haitang’s beauty was almost breathtaking, and he quickly looked down.
"Cough! Weird, there was no notice of a power outage, and who knows when it will be restored. This old complex really has outdated facilities," he tried to find a topic to ease the awkwardness.
"Hmm!" Who knew the only response from across would be a soft one.
That’s it! The conversation is dead.
Both were aware of the unusual atmosphere, and what followed was just silently picking up food and eating.
"Clack!" Their chopsticks gently collided over the same piece of tofu, and the next moment, both withdrew their hands simultaneously.
The air quieted for a moment, then Lin Haitang suddenly stood up.
"I’m full, going to check on Xiao Yu."
She seemed eager to escape the awkward atmosphere, her steps a bit hurried, while Meng Lang also sighed in relief.
"Ah!" an exclamation.
In the dim light, Lin Haitang seemed to trip over something and stumbled forward.
Meng Lang instinctively reached out to help, but then...
"Crash~"
The chair toppled, the view spun.
The next moment, before Meng Lang even knew what had happened, he found himself lying on the ground, facing Lin Haitang...
The air went silent instantly.
As he looked at the quivering long eyelashes of Lin Haitang just inches away, a thought suddenly popped into Meng Lang’s mind.
["That evening’s dinner was delicious, and under the dim candlelight, I made a bold decision that even I found unbelievable!"]
emm...
At that moment, her lips were only 3 centimeters from mine. I didn’t know what I would choose next.
But I can be sure... someone acted like a beast...
