Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 681 - 589: What She Didn’t Know About Him (2)
Jian Liangtong lay dazed on the bed for a few minutes, suddenly reaching up to grab her long hair, pressing her lips together with a rather gloomy expression.
New锐 Film and Television is currently preparing to shoot a film adapted from a big IP, whose author is a web writer she quite likes, and this time he is personally taking on the role of screenwriter for the movie.
She thought that Bai Qiao or Xu Jiaren could play the male lead... So...
Last night, she confidently used her charms, aiming to secure the role of the film’s male lead.
Little did she know, her charms did take effect, but in the end, she still messed up, and she didn’t even get a chance to speak about it.
Could this not make Jian Liangtong depressed!
Also.
Someone was really too scheming!
She didn’t believe he didn’t know what her intent was last night.
Yet that someone simply didn’t give her the opportunity to speak...
The most aggravating thing for Jian Liangtong was... This was her first attempt at using backdoor tactics, but she ended up failing spectacularly!
Jian Liangtong was so frustrated she wanted to gnaw on her pillow!
Her phone rang on the bedside table.
Jian Liangtong gritted her teeth, reached out to grab her phone from the bedside table, and glanced at the phone screen.
Seeing that it was someone calling.
Jian Liangtong couldn’t help but feel a "grudge" in her heart, squinting her eyes, harshly swiping the screen to answer, "What?"
"..."
Huo Shaojun was silent for two seconds, then said, "You up?"
"What else?" Jian Liangtong huffed.
"Well, if you’re up, come to the company." Huo Shaojun said.
"... Why go to the company?" Jian Liangtong frowned.
"Didn’t you want the male lead role? What, don’t want it anymore?"
"What male lead..."
As she said this, Jian Liangtong suddenly realized what he was talking about.
Stunned for two seconds, Jian Liangtong couldn’t control her scream, "Ah... Husband, I love you, mwah mwah, you’re the best to me. I’m coming right away. Ah..."
Huo Shaojun, "..." Good spirits, it seems he didn’t try hard enough last night, continue tonight!
...
Fang Family’s old house.
When Huo Shaojun and Jian Liangtong arrived with Hao Hao.
Rong Mochen, Rong Sinan, and others were already there.
Fang Mansion’s main room.
For the first time, four generations were gathered under one roof, everyone was present.
At this moment.
The sisters Fang Jingting and Fang Jingyi, along with Huo Xingli, were in Fang Duo’s room, and occasionally the sound of crying could be heard coming from inside.
Hanhan, Xixi, along with Jiu Jiu and Hao Hao were sitting on the sofa, behaving unusually quietly.
Jin Jumo and Jian Liangtong sat on another side of the sofa, while Tang Ruan, who was sitting on the same sofa, stayed in the corner.
A few men stood silently smoking in the living room.
The sound of the room door suddenly opening was heard.
Everyone looked over in unison.
Only to see Huo Xingli standing solemnly at the door of Fang Duo’s room.
Huo Xingli’s gloomy eyes swept over everyone in the living room, finally resting on Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong’s eyes slightly narrowed.
"Little Jian girl, come here." Huo Xingli said.
Jian Liangtong, "..." Clenched the dress on her knees tightly, instinctively looked at Huo Shaojun.
Huo Shaojun pressed his lips together, stepped forward, "Together."
Jian Liangtong breathed a sigh of relief, got up, and walked with Huo Shaojun towards Fang Duo’s bedroom.
...
Huo Shaojun and Jian Liangtong entered the room, where the sisters Fang Jingting and Fang Jingyi, standing in front of Fang Duo’s bed, covered their mouths and moved aside.
Jian Liangtong looked at Fang Duo on the sickbed.
The over-ninety-year-old elder, frail and thin, was nothing like the authoritative figure Jian Liangtong remembered.
She wondered if everyone gets like this when they’re old.
But seeing Fang Duo like this now, Jian Liangtong couldn’t help but feel a sense of lament and sadness about the passage of time.
Fang Duo’s eyes were muddy, staring at Jian Liangtong.
His lips slightly parted, breathing was extremely difficult.
"Go over, the old man wants to tell you something." Huo Xingli said beside her.
Jian Liangtong’s eyes flickered lightly, looking at Huo Shaojun.
Huo Shaojun squeezed her hand, nodded slightly at her.
Jian Liangtong took a deep breath, walked over to Fang Duo.
As she walked closer, one of her hands was suddenly grabbed by Fang Duo’s withered hand.
Jian Liangtong’s heart pounded, and she tightly clenched her other hand, resisting the urge to pull away from his grip.
Jian Liangtong inhaled deeply, anxiously looking at Fang Duo.
Fang Duo stared at her, his eyes vacant, his face stiff, already unable to freely express his emotions.
So Jian Liangtong didn’t know the purpose of him calling her over.
"Mm mm..."
The vague and difficult voice seeped from Fang Duo’s throat.
The bewilderment in Jian Liangtong’s eyes deepened, because she simply couldn’t understand what he wanted to convey to her.
"Mm mm..."
Fang Duo let out a string of indistinguishable sounds.
Jian Liangtong pressed her lips tightly, softly asking Fang Duo, "What do you want to say?"
"Mm mm mm mm..."
Eager, Fang Duo’s whole body began to tremble violently.
Jian Liangtong’s pupils contracted sharply, "Don’t be agitated, take your time to speak."
Jian Liangtong leaned down, putting her ear close to Fang Duo.
"Forgive..."
She understood what he said.
Jian Liangtong’s eyes widened, gazing with complexity at the frail old man on the sickbed.
Fang Duo still clutched Jian Liangtong tightly.
He was racing against time, holding onto his last breath, waiting for Jian Liangtong’s answer.
Jian Liangtong felt a heaviness in her heart.
"Mm..."
Fang Duo painfully lifted his upper body, his eyes turning white.
Yet he still didn’t loosen his grip on Jian Liangtong’s hand.
Jian Liangtong’s eyes reddened, said, "Alright, I promise you."
As soon as Jian Liangtong finished speaking.
It seemed as though Fang Duo’s stiff mouth corners curved slightly, then Jian Liangtong just felt her hand loosen.
With a violent tremor of her pupils, Jian Liangtong held her breath, her gaze slowly landed on Fang Duo’s face.
"Dad..."
"Dad..."
Fang Jingting and Fang Jingyi, seeing Fang Duo’s closed eyes, cried out and rushed to Fang Duo’s side.
Jian Liangtong was squeezed to the side by the two, her expression blank.
Her waist was suddenly enveloped from behind.
It was only then that Jian Liangtong let out the breath she had been holding, turning her eyes, teary-eyed, towards Huo Shaojun.
Huo Shaojun’s eyes were dark, filled with suppressed emotions of a man.
Huo Shaojun grew up by Fang Duo’s side.
His feelings for Fang Duo naturally ran deeper than those of Rong Mochen and the others.
Now that Fang Duo has passed away, without a doubt, among these juniors, Huo Shaojun was the saddest.
Thinking about this.
Jian Liangtong reached out, grabbed Huo Shaojun’s hand that hung at his side, gently clenching his fist.
Huo Shaojun lowered his eyes, looked quietly at Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong placed her other hand on top of his hand, mouthed silently, "I’m here."
Huo Shaojun’s eyes were dark and deep, he said nothing, just withdrew his hand clasped by Jian Liangtong, and instead held her two hands.
He knew, she was there!
