As Su Tang's good friend, Fang Ting was asking her in great detail about this gentleman, including his hometown, height, age, and every aspect.
Su Tang suddenly thought Fang Ting was quite unreliable. "You introduced him to me, but you didn't know anything about him before you did?"
Fang Ting felt a bit uneasy, but she trusted Jiang Bai's character completely. "Let me explain. The one who asked you for help yesterday is my good college buddy. Later he told me that there's a young man in Ren Qingzhou's studio who has a crush on you. He's definitely a reliable guy, so I didn't ask too many questions."
"Has a crush on me?" Su Tang was confused by Fang Ting's bewildering words. This guy's taste was truly unique.
"Tang, to be honest, you're really cute. Isn't the Japanese style popular these days? You're the so - called soft girl." Fang Ting said with a smile, looking at Su Tang's face.
"They like those girls who look kawaii, with a soft and gentle personality. I'm not that kind of woman who just looks cute but is actually cold and realistic."
"You're not cold. You're just not very good at talking. You're actually a nice person. As for being realistic, it's not a bad thing. Life is always cruel." Maybe because she had talked too much, Fang Ting had drunk three glasses of water in a short time. She felt she needed to go to the toilet.
Just then, Su Tang's phone rang. It was marked as a food delivery.
She shouted in the direction of the toilet, "Did you order takeout and leave my phone number?"
Fang Ting replied, "No, I just got out of bed."
Su Tang answered the phone. On the other end was a woman with a strong accent. "Where exactly in Anjia Apartment should I deliver this takeout?"
"Are you sure it's my takeout?"
"I've got the right number. Your surname is Su, right?"
"Building 11, Unit 4. Call me when you're almost here. I'll come down to pick it up."
"Okay, then get ready to come down. I'm already at the gate of Anjia Apartment."
When Fang Ting came out of the toilet, she saw Su Tang putting on her shoes and getting ready to go out.
"So there really is takeout."
"I'll go down first."
When Su Tang came back with the takeout, she saw Fang Ting already sitting at the dining table. "What's for dinner?"
"I don't know either." Su Tang put the takeout box on the dining table. Fang Ting took it and looked. "The packaging is quite delicate. It must be expensive."
When they opened it, they saw it was steamed dumplings. It must be from Song Yang.
Fang Ting asked timidly, "Can we eat it?"
Su Tang nodded. "Yes."
Su Tang searched on a food delivery app for a long time but couldn't find this restaurant. She didn't know where Song Yang had ordered the takeout from, nor how much she should transfer to him.
She sent a message to Song Yang on WeChat. "Thank you for the food."
She also attached a red envelope. Since she didn't know the exact price and the packaging looked quite valuable, she could only send a lucky number as a token of her gratitude.
Ren Qingzhou was also having dinner. He wasn't very good at cooking. Although he wouldn't burn down the kitchen, the food he cooked wasn't very delicious either. There was no nanny in his house in the capital, so he just drank some porridge.
After receiving the message, Ren Qingzhou smiled. He suddenly thought Su Tang was a bit cute. When they first met at the airport, he thought she was a muddled little girl. Then when they met backstage, he thought she seemed different. When chatting with her on WeChat yesterday, he found she didn't talk much. She was always changing, as if she would show a completely different state every moment.
Maybe because he had suddenly burst into her life, she wasn't used to it yet. Ren Qingzhou wanted Su Tang to like the real him, and he also wanted to know the real Su Tang.
"This restaurant has been open for many years. When I was a kid, it wasn't here. It moved here later."
"After it moved, I rarely went there. I don't know if the taste has changed."
Ren Qingzhou naturally didn't accept her red envelope.
After a while, Su Tang replied, "Next time you come back, I'll treat you to it."
"Okay, it's a deal."
I want to see you right away and tell you my real name, but it's still too early.
Fang Ting thought Su Tang was smiling strangely. "Who are you talking to? Your smile gives me the creeps."
"The little brother you introduced to me yesterday. The buns you're eating were also sent by him." Su Tang replied.
"I think there's something between you two. Trust me." Fang Ting asserted. "He does seem better than the previous ones I've introduced."
"You're just typical of someone who can't speak ill of someone after taking their benefits."
"A man should be considerate and willing to spend money on a girl. He knew you had just got off the plane and wouldn't want to go out, so he ordered takeout for you. That's being considerate. Just looking at the packaging, you can tell the takeout is expensive. It shows he's willing to spend money." Fang Ting analyzed.
"You're more realistic than me. It's too early to talk about money when nothing has been settled yet." Su Tang criticized her thinking.
Fang Ting disagreed. "This isn't being materialistic. A man who's willing to spend money on you may not really love you, but a man who's not even willing to spend a single cent on you definitely doesn't love you."
"Moreover, if a man is stingy when he's chasing you, he'll definitely be very mean after marriage."
"You're right. You make sense. Hurry up and eat. It'll get cold soon."
"Where is this Song Yang from?" Fang Ting's attention shifted from this matter to this person. Su Tang had a bad feeling.
"He's from City S."
"Did you ask if his family has a house here? It would be great if they did. It's really hard for white - collar workers like us to buy a house here."
"Sis, this isn't a blind date. Do you think it's a bit crazy if I go up and ask him how many people are in his family, if he has a house, a car, and how much savings he has?"
Su Tang decided to leave this scary woman. "Remember to clean up after you finish eating. I'll go do the laundry first."
"Wait, one last thing."
"Speak."
"Compensate me for the hair I sacrificed for work."
"How?"
"Tomorrow, the movie *The Last Heartbeat* starring Actor Zhang will be released."
"I'll buy the tickets right away."
*The Last Heartbeat* was a typical tragic love movie. When they came out of the cinema, Fang Ting's eyes were as swollen as walnuts. She kept muttering, "It's so tragic, so tragic."
It was actually an old - fashioned love tragedy, but thanks to the excellent acting, although Su Tang didn't cry as badly as Fang Ting, she still shed tears several times.
"Crying has made my eyes swollen. I need to have a good meal to make up for it." Although she didn't know how to make up for swollen eyes, Su Tang agreed with the suggestion of having a good meal.
The two of them headed straight for a newly - opened hot - pot restaurant.
While waiting for the food, Su Tang and Fang Ting both updated their Moments.
Su Tang: "This is the last time my heart beats for you. From now on, everything in my life has nothing to do with you."
Fang Ting: "They say tragedy goes well with hot pot~"
Ren Qingzhou also went to watch *The Last Heartbeat*. His friend Ding Huanyu played the second male lead, and he went to support the box office.
Actor Zhang's movies always had good box - office and good reviews. *The Last Heartbeat* was expected to be a big hit this time.
Ren Qingzhou browsed Weibo. Everyone was betting that he would post on Weibo today.
He decided to fulfill their wishes.
"Heartbeat for you." He also attached a picture of the movie and @ Ding Huanyu.
Done.
He should ask Ding Huanyu to interact with him.
Su Tang had posted on her Moments.
Should he like it? What if they had mutual friends? Would he be exposed?
They probably didn't have mutual friends, right?
He could still like it. He also left a comment, "Same movie."
While he was posting on the Moments, Li Momo was frantically calling Ren Qingzhou in the studio group.
"Boss, you're on the hot search. You're actually on the hot search."
Ren Qingzhou rarely made it onto the hot search, especially in the top few.
This hot search was really silly - "Ren Qingzhou's confession was rejected".
When he clicked on it, he saw that Ding Huanyu had replied to him, "I don't dare, I don't dare." And he also attached a picture that said, "Don't love me. There's no happy ending."
The newly - opened hot - pot restaurant was really good. The spicy pot was spicy enough, and the food was fresh.
After a full meal, Fang Ting was scrolling through Weibo. She informed Su Tang, "Your Qingzhou is on the hot search."
Su Tang was chatting with Ren Qingzhou, who was using the alias Song Yang.
They had chatted from the Moments to the chat box and both thought the male lead's decision was too frustrating, too painful, and too against human nature.
Although the process of reaching this consensus was different.
Su Tang thought there was obviously a better way to solve this problem, and the male lead's choice wasn't the best solution.
Ren Qingzhou thought that if you like someone, you shouldn't give up easily. No matter how many difficulties there are, you should strive for it.
The process didn't matter. What mattered was that they had the same conclusion.
The two had a friendly discussion about the movie.
"What hot search?" After hearing Fang Ting's words, Su Tang opened Weibo and saw "Ren Qingzhou's confession was rejected" on the list.
"With Qingzhou's good looks, if he really confesses to someone, the person who doesn't accept must be crazy." Fang Ting was already reapplying her lipstick.
Looking at all the "hahaha" in the hot - search topic, Su Tang replied, "No, it's not that a good - looking person can be invincible in love."
"But he has a natural advantage. Such a perfect man. Even if it's not for a relationship, just sleeping with him would be a great experience." Fang Ting saw that Su Tang had also finished eating and was ready to pay the bill and leave. "Trying such a handsome guy would be the peak of life."
"Sis, your values are getting more and more off - track. It's very dangerous." Su Tang concluded.
"These are just great ideals in life. The possibility of achieving them is almost zero. I can only think about them." After they left the hot - pot restaurant, they started their after - meal activity - window shopping.
Su Tang's phone kept ringing. Fang Ting finally realized who she was chatting with. "Who are you chatting with behind my back?"
"Song Yang. He also watched *The Last Heartbeat*. We're having a friendly chat about the plot."
"It seems you have a lot in common. Sis, there could be a story. Come on."
