Chapter 345: 314 Tang Su, See you in Hua City (2 updates)_1

"I thought you were staying over tonight? Why did you suddenly leave?" Lu Han asked.

"I want to spend some alone time with your brother-in-law, is that okay?"

"Of course it’s okay, just let me know if everything’s alright, or if there’s anything you need to tell me." How could Lu Han not understand his sister’s temperament? She must have been upset talking with their parents downstairs, right?

However, he couldn’t grasp his sister’s sore point.

The couple’s affection for each other was so strong, and both were good at making money. If they didn’t have children, it was either because the relationship wasn’t great, they were short of money, or there were health issues preventing them from having kids.

Those who initially decide to be DINK (dual income, no kids) surely exist as well, although they are a minority and, for a long time, were treated as outliers by society.

If their mother had also chosen just to date and marry their father without having children, then the world would be without the two siblings.

The earth would naturally keep spinning without them, but if everyone were so selfish, only looking out for themselves, would the world still be as it is now?

Probably it would be just a desolate wilderness with no one to complain about overpopulation.

Wouldn’t an earth without people be terrifying?

Immediately after, Lu Han thought of Tang Su. If Tang Su had the same mindset as his sister and didn’t want to have children because she was afraid of the pain, what would he do?

After imagining himself in the same situation with Tang Su, all his previous misunderstandings became crystal clear in an instant.

Well, if it were his woman and she was afraid of the pain and didn’t want to have kids, then she wouldn’t have to.

Each person is an independent individual, it’s none of other people’s business if they don’t want to have kids.

How the world is, can’t be changed by just one couple anyway.

Yeah!

Suddenly, Lu Han felt it wasn’t so hard to understand why Lu Zhu wasn’t keen on having children.

When Lu Zhu heard Lu Han speaking to her like this, her nose felt a little sour and her eyes grew warm; her little brother knew how to soften her heart.

"It’s nothing, I just suddenly remembered I have a meeting summary to hand over to the leadership tomorrow, and I haven’t finished it yet, so I need to go back to work late," Lu Zhu said.

"Oh, then don’t stay up too late, get some rest early."

"Yeah, got it, you should go to bed early too."

"Alright, goodnight, and pass my regards to Teacher Song as well."

"Mmhmm."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhu’s spirits were much improved.

However, once back home, Lu Zhu didn’t work late; after all, the meeting summary was just an excuse. Even if it really hadn’t been finished, she only needed a few minutes to edit it during work hours.

But even without the need for late-night work on the meeting summary, Lu Zhu ended up staying up late anyway.

Song Mingxiu physically practiced their "world of two" to the fullest.

Flipping and turning, he kept Lu Zhu awake until nearly dawn, letting her sleep for less than two hours.

**

The next day.

The Su family gathered in the hospital room while Tang Su waited in the hallway for news.

With her help, last night’s meeting concluded with the decision that Li Fei, an actress under Bai Simen’s management, would take on the female lead in "First Love."

Bai Simen is a straightforward, career-driven woman with a strong personality. Once the decision was made and the crew had been delayed for so many days, she notified all the partners in the WeChat group on the way back, and the official announcement went out.

Bai Simen was Li Fei’s agent, and He Jingtian had instructed her to make Li Fei a star by all means necessary, and for a high salary, Bai Simen naturally spared no effort.

The reason she chose "First Love" was also because she had initially been the one to recommend the novel and achieve results before it caught the attention of the capital moguls.

Li Fei’s image closely resembled Bai Qiao during her school days; in this part of the play, she only needed to be herself, but in the latter half, after leaving school and entering the workplace, her acting would need much polishing.

Bai Simen would also help her find a very good teacher, and she herself would go all out to assist.

That night, while driving the drunken Bai Dingkai home, Bai Simen made several major decisions, including announcing the lead actress, notifying the male lead’s agent that he must arrive in Hua City by the day after tomorrow at the latest, and she had her assistant book tickets for herself and Li Fei to leave immediately.

When she called Li Fei to notify her but He Jingtian answered, his heavy breathing induced speculative thoughts.

Before Bai Simen returned to the country to take this job, she had heard about the unusual relationship between He Jingtian and Li Fei and had thought it was just a rumor at the time.

Now, the rumor was confirmed.

Bai Simen quickly hung up the phone with a rushed "Sorry for the disturbance."

After the heat of embarrassment on her face subsided a bit, Bai Simen still responsibly forwarded the flight information from her assistant to Li Fei’s phone.

Later, Bai Dingkai, taking advantage of the darkness inside the car and his drunken state, started to grope her, which led to her pinching him for a long time.

The next morning, when Bai Dingkai came to, seeing the bruises on his body, he held his forehead, sat on the toilet, and spaced out for a long time. What had he done last night?

When he finally came downstairs refreshed, he found that Bai Simen had, once again, left without saying goodbye, dragging her luggage behind her. Just as he was about to blow his top, Patriarch Bai told him, "Simen didn’t leave without saying goodbye. She’s gone back to Hua City. What, she didn’t tell you, her second brother?"

Bai Dingkai scowled, "No, it seems to me that in her eyes, I’m not even considered her second brother."

"It’s normal for her not to take you seriously, as you never acted like a second brother from the moment she entered our family. You were the one who loved to bully her when you were young."

"Grandfather, I..." Bai Dingkai tried to argue but the memories that surfaced made him realize that he had indeed not been very nice to Bai Simen.

"Grandfather, you said she’s gone to Hua City?"

"Yes, that’s what she told me this morning."

"I understand, then I’m off to Hua City too. This time, we’ll be working together on a film."

"Oh, oh, then hurry up and have breakfast, and after breakfast, ask the driver to take you to the airport."

Bai Dingkai shook his head, declining the kindness of Patriarch Bai, "Grandfather, I’ll skip breakfast. I’ll leave right now."

"..."

As Tang Su waited in the corridor, she received an image from Bai Simen at the airport. Accompanying her, aside from her assistant, was a yawning Li Fei.

Bai Simen remembered instructing her assistant to buy Li Fei a cup of extra-strong black coffee last night.

"Thank you, Sister Menmen," Li Fei said gratefully.

"You’re welcome. Get some good sleep on the plane later," Bai Simen advised.

"Okay, will do."

He Jingtian was a very generous boss. Although she had her assistant book business class, he had dispatched his special assistant to bring Li Fei in the morning and had upgraded them all to first class.

"Tang Su, see you in Hua City," Bai Simen sent a voice message.

"Yeah, see you in Hua City," Tang Su responded with a smile in her voice message.

She was in high spirits, her face beaming with a smile. However, in the eyes of others, her beaming smile in such a situation was distasteful.

Someone immediately lashed out at her because of it.
