Volume 1 Entertainment Circle Chapter 64 Candidate for Wife
When she heard her name being called out on the radio, Tong Jing finally came back to her senses and quickly carried the shopping basket towards the exit. As soon as she walked out of the elevator, Li Cheng's figure appeared in front of her eyes, and even though he was blocking her view, Tong Jing still caught a glimpse of Tan Jieyan standing behind him.
How could she have gotten so caught up in looking at the potted plants that she forgot she was still shopping, and Tan Jieyan and the others were still waiting for her? Tong Jing was in such a hurry that she forgot the vegetables in her shopping basket hadn't been paid for yet, and she rushed off directly. The supermarket's anti-theft alarm immediately let out a sharp sound, and almost at the same time, everyone turned to look at Tong Jing. Two of the supermarket's security guards also quickly ran over.
With a loud noise, her face turned bright red, and Tong Jiang stood still in stunned embarrassment, glancing awkwardly in the direction of Tan Jieyan before turning to walk towards the checkout counter. The supermarket was crowded with people at year-end sales, and long lines had formed in front of the cash registers. Tong Jiang joined the end of the queue, occasionally catching curious glances from passersby, but no one would really take her for a thief - the alarm was meant to prevent shoplifting, and it was impossible that someone like Tong Jiang, carrying a shopping basket, would simply rush out; that wouldn't be shoplifting, that would be robbery.
Tong Jiang only felt that she had never been so embarrassed in her life, especially in front of Tan Jieyan. There were too many people and Tong Jiang was not very tall, so even if she stood on tiptoes, she couldn't see Tan Jieyan's side. In the end, she could only lower her head and line up to pay, waiting until Tong Jiang left the supermarket, it had already been over ten minutes.
"Sorry!" Tong Jiang lowered his head, feeling a bit defeated that he always seemed to be in trouble whenever he was in front of Tan Jieyan.
"Get in the car." Tan Jieyan looked at Tong Qiang, who had a guilty look on his face. His expression was no longer gentle as it was initially. He had just received Li Cheng's call and was genuinely worried and anxious. If Yu Jing hadn't reminded him to use the broadcast, he would have gone straight to the third floor to find someone. Losing his usual calmness and composure, Tan Jieyan looked at Tong Qiang, who was getting into the car, with a serious gaze. When did he start losing his rationality because of Tong Qiang?
"Sorry!" As the car started, Tong Jiao secretly glanced at Tan Jieyan's serious face and bowed his head again in apology, feeling a bit sad, his head almost touching the ground.
Just now when she went to the supermarket, her face was still radiant with a bright expression, and those not particularly large eyes were shining brightly. But at this moment, Tan Jieyan looked at Tong Yang, who was listless and spiritless, and he also understood that it was himself who made her happy and worried by turns. Tan Jieyan was no longer a child, even when he was young, he was mature and wise beyond his years, calm and collected. But at this moment, knowing that he was so important to Tong Yang, even affecting her mood, this realization and feeling gave Tan Jieyan a full and satisfied feeling in his heart.
"No need to apologize, you didn't do anything wrong." Tan Jieyan's low and husky voice softened, his large hand once again grasping Tóng Jiǎo's tightly clenched fist. If he really had to choose a wife, then it would be Tóng Jiǎo; as for her current job, they could discuss that later.
Her body suddenly stiffened, Tong Ying's eyes widened in shock as she looked at Tan Jieyan with a puzzled expression, really couldn't understand the situation. Her tightly clenched hand also unconsciously loosened, and almost at the same time, Tan Jieyan's fingers seemed to have found an opportunity to quickly grasp her hand, five fingers intertwined, it was the most intimate way of holding hands.
Tong's hand was held, and all she could feel were the nerve endings on her hand growing wildly in such an intimate gesture. Her mind was filled with the sensation of his hand, clearly feeling Tan Jieyan's strong and powerful fingers, warm palm, distinct joints. For a moment, all the heat in her body seemed to concentrate on her hand, even in the cold winter, her palms were sweating.
Tan Jieyan didn't have Tongyuan's tension, so he keenly felt Tongyuan's sweaty hands. He watched her go from being bewildered to lowering her head and not daring to look at him, but those small hands didn't pull away from his palms. Of course, Tan Jieyan wouldn't give her the chance to do so either. However, seeing Tongyuan become shy to the point where even her ears turned red, Tan Jieyan's mood became pleasant.
In such an era, one-night stands are rampant, and holding hands is so shy. Tan Jieyan shook his head, but he liked Tong Liang's simple and pure feelings very much. Perhaps in his bones, Tan Jieyan also had some masculine chauvinism. He didn't care about the bold openness of some girls nowadays, but Tan Jieyan himself would never choose that kind of partner.
