Chapter 936: Chapter 936 A Dull Day

At this moment, Lin Dong was sitting on a roller coaster with Tang Mu.

He had no idea what Wang Lei and Tang Jun were scheming.

Of course, even if he knew, Lin Dong would probably just ignore it directly.

For Lin Dong, small characters like Wang Lei and Tang Jun were no more significant than the grass and flowers by the roadside.

Simply not worth any emotional response from him.

Lin Dong spent the day with Tang Mu at Disney.

That day, both of them had turned off their phones and did not bother with the outer world.

As for Lin Dong, he was accompanying her.

If they were going to spend an ordinary day together, it should not be disturbed by other matters.

The two of them did not leave until the night.

And instead of staying at a hotel, Lin Dong took Tang Mu to the ’Thomson One’ suite.

That house, which is still registered under the name of Li Qingcheng, is sometimes occupied by the two of them.

However, Li Qingcheng has recently been busy with work and cannot leave the company, so it has been a long time since she last stayed there.

As for Lin Dong, he hadn’t stayed there in the past few days either.

The house had been vacant for some time.

Today, Lin Dong brought Tang Mu over.

After opening the door, Lin Dong, seeing that the living room was somewhat dirty and messy, apologized:

"It’s been a while since anyone stayed here, it’s a bit messy, sorry."

Tang Wu laughed, "It’s okay."

After saying this, she entered inside.

The two of them had not eaten yet, and Tang Mu asked, "Is there anything in the fridge?"

Lin Dong shook his head, "I’m not sure, it’s been several days since it had occupants."

Tang Mu walked over, opened the fridge, and found some frozen meat, eggs, and some yellowing vegetables.

The vegetables were no longer edible.

So Tang Mu took out a piece of frozen meat to thaw, along with some eggs.

Seeing that there was also some flour nearby, she decided to use it to make dough and prepare to cook noodles with meat and eggs.

Lin Dong asked in surprise, "You know how to make noodles?"

Tang Wu laughed, "Yes, because I usually can’t be bothered to go out shopping. When I’m not acting or singing, I just stay at home by myself. I like to experiment with cooking."

"Just wait a moment, making dough takes a little time."

Lin Dong nodded, laughingly said, "Then I must really taste your cooking skills."

Tang Mu’s face slightly reddened, and her movements quickened a bit.

Lin Dong watched her make dough adeptly.

It was clear she was someone who often cooks.

Not like those stars who show off for the sake of it.

Just cooking a meal and they’d share it all over the network, creating an image of being talented and good at cooking.

Lin Dong noticed that while she was stretching the dough, she was actually mumbling something under her breath.

Lin Dong asked curiously, "Are you counting?"

"Ah..." Tang Mu was a bit embarrassed, "It’s a habit, I always like to count how many noodles I’ve pulled out."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong fell silent.

In that moment, he thought of a scene from a martial arts novel he had once read.

Li Xunhuan of "Little Flying Dagger" was having a conversation with Afei on a rainy autumn day.

Li Xunhuan asked Afei, "Do you know how many plum blossoms there are in front of the door?"

Without any hesitation, Afei said, "Seventeen."

After hearing Afei’s reply, Li Xunhuan’s face turned solemn and his smile froze.

Li Xunhuan too had counted the plum blossoms on the branch, and there were indeed seventeen.

And he knew that a person would only count the plum blossoms in front of the door when they were extremely lonely.

Lin Dong thought, Tang Mu might be even lonelier than Li Xunhuan and Afei.

Otherwise, why would she subconsciously count how many strands of noodles she had pulled?

It wasn’t long before the noodles were ready.

Two poached eggs were added.

And some pork.

Very simple.

"Come on, have a taste." Tang Wu put a bowl of noodles in front of Lin Dong and said expectantly.

Lin Dong picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

"This is delicious!" Lin Dong exclaimed. Among all the women he knew, Tang Wu’s cooking skills were the best.

Even better than Lin Dong’s own.

Even just a simple bowl of noodles had the touch of a master chef.

Tang Wu laughed, "Then eat more!"

As she spoke, she added more noodles to Lin Dong’s bowl.

Yet as Lin Dong ate the delicious noodles, he couldn’t feel happy at all.

Because such delightful food came at the cost of Tang Wu’s loneliness and solitude.

When the meal was over, Tang Wu went to wash the dishes.

Lin Dong said, "Let me do it."

After speaking, he snatched the dishes and chopsticks from her hands and went into the kitchen to wash them.

Tang Wu just spaced out for a moment and didn’t refuse.

After Lin Dong finished washing the dishes, they sat together on the sofa in the living room.

"I want to watch a movie," Tang Wu said.

Lin Dong nodded. He hadn’t installed internet TV in the house, but he had bought a projector before.

Lin Dong liked watching movies with the projector.

So did Tang Wu.

He turned on the projector and switched off the lights in the living room.

They drew the white gauzy curtains to block out the neon lights outside.

The only illumination in the room was the light from the movie cast by the projector.

Lin Dong and Tang Wu sat on the sofa, watching the movie in a not-so-elegant posture.

They searched for a long time but couldn’t find any new movies that were good.

Tang Wu suggested, "Let’s watch an old movie. Do you remember that old movie we went to see together in high school?"

"Are you talking about ’The Horseman’?"

"Yes, ’The Horseman’," Tang Wu replied. "Tonight, I suddenly feel like watching that movie."

So Lin Dong searched and, although the movie was old, because it was a classic, and due to the previous popularity of the meme ’Old Xu, do you want a wife?’ it was easy to find.

After starting the movie, the two watched quietly.

The neon lights of Demon City flickered with drunken splendor.

In the dim movie projection, a mundane horseman’s life unfolded, featuring the crisp grasslands, simple folks, and straightforward romance that composed memories they could never return to.

"I’ve watched this movie so many times, I so wish I could live like them, chopping wood, tending horses, guarding the grasslands all my life, only caring about the grain and vegetables in the fields, keeping in touch with distant friends by letters, naming every mountain, every river, every tree, every blade of grass with a warm name..."

Tang Wu murmured.

Being a star is really tiring.

This era is really tiring too.

Lin Dong remained silent.

In the faint light from the projector, he looked at Tang Wu beside him, only to see her eyelids battling in whispered murmurs.

"Tired?"

"Yes, it’s been a long day. So tired!" Tang Wu said softly.

"Then have a good sleep."

"Mm." Tang Wu, who often suffered from insomnia, nodded and then closed her eyes.

In just a few seconds, she was deeply asleep.

And who knows what she dreamed of, as in her sleep, her mouth kept smiling.

Perhaps she was dreaming of her horseman, of her spring in full bloom...
