Strike Back, Proud Goddess! Novel

Tang Xi snorted at Qiao Liang, went to sit down next to Ning Yan and asked Ning Yan, “Director Ning, when will the movie begin to be filmed? I’ve been preparing myself.”

Ning Yan was surprised that Tang Xi was so eager to shoot the movie. He raised his eyebrows, asking, “Can you start shooting the movie at any time?”

“Can we start it after the Spring Festival? It’s the first Spring Festival I’ll spend with my family.” Tang Xi said, secretly glanced at Qiao Liang who was looking at her, and made a face at him to show her contempt of him.

She was his girlfriend, and today was her birthday, but he didn’t even prepare a present for her. That was ridiculous!

Ning Yan was angry to see Tang Xi flirting with Qiao Liang while she was chatting with him, so he immediately said, “Just go to your boyfriend. Don’t sit here. I don’t want to be a third wheel!”

Tang Xi immediately raised her hand and surrendered. “Director Ning, sorry, my bad. I won’t glare at him anymore.”

Ning Yan, “…”

Come on, are you glaring at him? You are leering at him!

Xiao Jing, Xiao Sa, Yang Mukun and some others were playing a game together. Xiao Yan didn’t know them well but had cooperations with He Wanzhou, He Wanning and Ning Yan, so he sat down beside He Wanzhou. Now there was only one lone wolf…

Xiao Yao…

Xiao Yao looked around and found there was only an empty seat beside He Wanyi… All the other seats were occupied. Xiao Yao looked at He Wanyi who sat with her back to him, and he frowned and fell into a trance…

“What would you like to eat?” It was very hot that day. Although they were in November, he still felt the enthusiasm of the sun in City A. He looked at He Wanyi who was dressed in a beige windbreaker whose waist belt was fastened to highlight the curve of her figure, and couldn’t help blushing. He had to admit that He Wanyi was really a beautiful girl who was as dazzling as a beam of light.

“You are treating me this dinner, so it’s up to you.” He Wanyi gave a bright smile and gazed at him. “Don’t tell me you don’t know what I like to eat.”

He smiled. “Okay, then let’s go to have some food that you like…” He Wanyi gave him a questioning glance and he immediately changed his mind. “Let’s have French food? French food restaurants won’t be so crowded.”

“Where do you want to take me?” Her eyes flickered. He could tell that she wanted to say something but didn’t.

“I remember you like street snacks, right?” He looked at her deeply, with a faint smile on his face. “But snack booths are usually crowded. If you go to those booths with me, perhaps…” It would cause He Wanyi a lot of trouble , although he didn’t care.

“Let’s go there.”

“Where to go?” He looked at her back and was at a loss of what to do.

Yes, he was at a loss at that time. He didn’t know why. It seemed to be the first time that he was at a loss in the face of He Wanyi. Was he afraid that he failed to live up to her love, or that he had a crush on her?

He didn’t know.

He Wanyi gracefully got into his car and looked at him. “Come on, take me to the place you wanted to take me to in the first place.” She paused and went on. “Of course, if you don’t want to go, we can go to a French food restaurant.”

Finally they went to a busy night fair but parted in discord.

Xiao Yao didn’t remember why they parted unhappily that day. He only remembered that at that time she cried, and asked him with a sneer, “Xiao Yao, do you think my love for you is ridiculous? You always turn a blind eye to me, but I just can’t ignore you. Every time Ning Yan held parties with his friends, I would go to the parties although I didn’t like those occasions at all, just because you might be there. Do you think I’m cheap?”

Xiao Yao looked at He Wanyi’s back and frowned. What did he say at that time? Oh, yes, he said, “Wanyi, I don’t deserve your love, so…”

“That’s enough!” She interrupted him and he was relieved because he didn’t think he had the courage to say what followed

What he was trying to say was not that ‘don’t love me anymore’ but… ‘I’ll try to be worthy of your love’.

Because I don’t deserve your love until I forget that girl.

“Xiao Yao, I don’t need you to remind me. I know my limits. You’ll owe me forever.” With that, she turned and trotted away, leaving him to watch her walk away.

At that time, he remembered that it was always she who watched him walk away before

He was really a jerk. In any case, she was a girl. A girl’s love for a man was priceless, but he never cherished it.

With this in mind, Xiao Yao clenched her hands harder. He Wanyi had drunk almost a bottle of wine alone. She could feel a hot gaze behind, but she dared not look back, because she was afraid that once she did, that gaze would be gone, so she could only quietly sit there and pretend she knew nothing at all.

She couldn’t help complaining in her heart. Why is it that I’ve given so much, and you’re still not willing to make the first move?

As long as you are willing to take the first step forward, even if we are hundreds of thousands of miles away from each other, I won’t hesitate to run to your arms.

Qiao Liang who had been sitting in the corner noticed the strange atmosphere between the two of them. He raised his eyebrows and turned up the corners of his mouth, wondering whether he should do something to fix the two together?

Although he hated to do this kind of thing the most, Xiao Yao was his potential rival in love! Although he had become Xixi’s brother, he still had a sense of crisis. If Xiao Yao had his own girlfriend, he would be safe.

Qiao Liang thought about it and stroked his chin, wondering how to fix together Xiao Yao and He Wanyi…

Qiao Liang looked around and found something interesting…

Tang Xi was chatting with Ning Yan and suddenly found he was absent-minded. She waved her hand in front of his eyes. “Director Ning, are you listening to me?”

Ning Yan came back from his reverie and took a look at Tang Xi, asking, “What’s up?”

Tang Xi shrugged, “I said, I’ll have to attend my company’s new product launch, so I want two days off at that time. Do you think it’s okay?”

Ning Yan nodded. “Okay.”

Xiao Yao who had been looking at He Wanyi suddenly moved…
