Under the faint glow of the streetlight, Song Lan could see Tong Tong's face. From her expression, it was clear that Tong Tong was not angry; in fact, she seemed to be a little happy.
Song Lan didn't know what Tong Tong was thinking at that moment, but it was certain that she was lost in thought.
Zhu Junjie was driving. He wanted to turn around to look at Tong Tong but was afraid that doing so might lead to unexpected situations on the road, which could be dangerous.
He sat in the driver's seat, hesitant to move, and asked Song Lan in a low voice, "Tong Tong, what's wrong? Are you mad at me?"
"No, she's probably just tired after playing all day."
"Is she asleep?"
"It's almost there."
"Oh."
Zhu Junjie was afraid of disturbing Tong Tong, so his voice became quieter and quieter.
When the car passed by the Ferris wheel in the city center, Song Lan looked up at the highest point of the Ferris wheel and said, "Do you want to go up and see if you're afraid of heights or not?"
"Today... let's forget about it," Zhu Junjie suddenly realized that even if he didn't admit his fear of heights now, it would be exposed later. It would be better to be straightforward and get it over with. "I lied to you. I am indeed afraid of heights."
After Zhu Junjie said this, he felt much more relaxed.
"Honesty is a good habit."
Zhu Junjie didn't say anything, and Song Lan had already confirmed that he is afraid of heights.
She just suggested trying the Ferris wheel to see his evasive and hesitant reaction.
"You're not angry?"
"Am I that petty?"
"I actually wish you were a little petty."
Song Lan After dating him, the two of them initially had some friction, but later, he learned to be more accommodating. Their relationship became as calm as water, and they couldn't even argue anymore.
This kind of relationship, skipping the passionate period and directly entering the old couple mode, made Zhu Junjie anxious.
It feels like Song Lan doesn't really care about him, as if she could kick him away at any time.
"You are really strange. Before, you said I was petty and always nitpicked about everything. Now, why do you want me to be more petty?"
Zhu Junjie is definitely a contradictory man!
"That was before we were in a relationship. Now that we are together, if you are a little petty, it shows that you care about me."
"What kind of logic is this? Can't we get along peacefully? Song Lan feels that he and Zhu Junjie are not on the same page."
"My logic is very normal. We are currently in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, and we also have a baby. In front of him, we should show a loving side, instead of living together like roommates."
"Everything needs to progress step by step. We haven't reached the stage you mentioned. I'm not an actor, I can't cooperate with you to perform the affection you want."
Talking about love seems like a difficult problem for Song Lan. She doesn't know how to show a tender feeling to Zhu Junjie.
She felt that the current state between them was very comfortable; there was no arguing or noise. Living together, they could take care of each other. When she was with Tong Tong, everything revolved around Tong Tong. So far, she was very satisfied with this life and had no thoughts of changing anything.
"Did you just say that the affection I want from the performance?" Song Lan's words dealt a significant blow to Zhu Junjie.
In his view, Song Lan only had to accept him because of Tong Tong, and her words further confirmed this point.
He sounded dejected.
Song Lan realized that his previous words had been a bit blunt. As the traffic light ahead turned red and the brake lights of the vehicles in front illuminated, Song Lan looked at the glowing taillights and said, "I'm sorry, I mentioned before that I prefer to go with the flow."
"Then why don't you go with the flow at work?"
Song Lan is a very ambitious person. She can work tirelessly, but when it comes to relationships, she has no intention of taking the initiative. "Work is different from relationships." As long as she puts in the effort at work, she will see results.
Relationships are a matter between two people; it won't work if only one person is putting in the effort.
"What's the difference? You can fight for your job, and you can also fight for a relationship. I... I actually don't need you to fight for me; I just need you to open your heart and accept me!"
He tried hard to show her the qualities that made him shine, hoping she would come to like him.
"I prefer to go with the flow in relationships." Song Lan emphasized "go with the flow" twice. In her view, as long as she can stay true to her heart, if Zhu Junjie becomes open to everyone again in the future, she can easily withdraw.
If you really invest emotions, it's heartbreaking and harmful to the body, this deal is not worth it. Song Lan also knows that she is too clear-minded, but in this impetuous society, being more rational causes less harm than being emotional. She doesn't allow herself to become a love fool.
"Is it that I can't give you the feeling you want?"
"Zhu Junjie, before you knew about Tong Tong's existence, I never considered marriage."
In the dim light, Song Lan noticed that Tong Tong had already fallen asleep. She could speak openly with Zhu Junjie. "In my philosophy of life, making money to provide a better life for Tong Tong is the most important thing. Later, when you learned about Tong Tong's existence..."
"I have made changes, you can't press me step by step anymore."
"I'm sorry Song Lan, I didn't mean to pressure you, I was just too impatient."
Seeing other lovers together, the sweet and affectionate scene, Zhu Junjie just thinks that one day he will be like them with Song Lan.
Not only is Zhu Junjie anxious, but his father and mother are even more anxious, after all, their son is not getting any younger.
Zhu Junjie wants to get closer to Song Lan, but her personality is too independent. She lives well without relying on anyone.
From the beginning, Song Lan has been prepared to be single for life. This mindset needs to change little by little, and Zhu Junjie needs to impress her with his actions in order to make her fully accept him.
"I should be the one to apologize. I've been busy lately and haven't had much time to spare for you and Tong Tong. After my work settles down, I'll try to make more time to be with you both."
Song Lan also quickly engaged in self-reflection within a short period of time.
Over the past year, she has witnessed Zhu Junjie's changes."
He is always there to fulfill her requests, helping her whenever possible at work. The smooth development of her studio is inseparable from Zhu Junjie's assistance. Additionally, the Zhu Family's attitude towards both him and Tong Tong is exceptionally good.
Song Lan feels the same as mirror in her heart.
Since she had already promised to give Zhu Junjie a chance before, she couldn't say it out loud and then not give Zhu Junjie the time.
Without spending time together, the opportunity is as good as wasted.
Song Lan's calming tone and words instantly revitalized Zhu Junjie. "You don't need to apologize to me; I was the one who was a jerk in the past. I will definitely work hard to change your impression of me as soon as possible."
"You are already doing well. As long as you no longer get involved with the artists in the company like before, that's enough."
"I swear, ever since we got together six years ago, I haven't had any entanglements with other women."
