C239 Disobedient

"I'm not as tight as you two," Qiao Lin retorted, not wanting to be outdone.

"Young Master Luo's leg is injured. I'm helping him out of kindness." Meng Lang retracted his arm that was on Luo Mi's shoulder and hugged him even tighter.

However, his words caused Luo Mi to be dissatisfied. He pinched Meng Lang's waist hard, and Meng Lang immediately let out a wave of ghostly wails and howls.

Qiao Lin still remembered that when Luo Mi went to the studio to look for Meng Lang previously, he was still leaning on a crutch. It had been so many days, but his leg seemed to be not completely healed.

At this moment, Shen Zhao also arrived. As soon as he entered the departure lounge, he saw Meng Lang and Luo Mi together. He felt that it was a little strange, "What, Young Master Luo is going on a business trip to S City again?"

Previously, when Luo Mi pestered Shen Zhao, he shamelessly followed him around on business trips.

The person who had helped Shen Zhao out of trouble and chased Luo Mi away in the past suddenly changed his attitude and pressed Luo Mi's head into his arms, preventing him from looking at Shen Zhao, "That's right, he's on a business trip. He's with me on a business trip."

Shen Zhao, who had always been serious, suddenly smiled. It was good that he understood, but he didn't say anything.

No wonder Meng Lang had always tried his best to drive Luo Mi away from him in the past. It turned out that he was not trying to help him out, but that he had long since taken a fancy to Luo Mi.

"It's almost boarding time." Xu Yun, who had just squeezed through the crowd of fans, reminded everyone.

Qiao Lin then took his suitcase from Qin Lang's hands and said, "I'll do it myself."

He could give the luggage to Qiao Lin, but Qin Lang held his hand and refused to let go.

"What are you doing? Everyone is watching," Qiao Lin struggled to break free.

He also hoped that he and Qin Lang could be like Meng Lang and Luo Mi. Even if they hugged in public, they wouldn't have to worry about the gazes of others.

However, he and Qin Lang could not. They could ignore the gazes of others, but they could not ignore the impact of this matter. As a small fry, he did not have much to worry about. However, he had no choice but to care about Qin Lang's reputation. After all, Qin Lang's reputation as an illegitimate child had already been damaged. If his relationship with Qin Lang was exposed again, he did not know what the consequences would be.

Qin Lang wanted to pull his hand back again, but he could only silently follow behind him.

Although he had a bright appearance, he sometimes did not even have freedom. This was not the happy life he had expected.

When they arrived at the ancient town near the filming location and checked into the hotel, it was already six o'clock in the evening. Since they had to make up for filming, there were not many actors and actresses. Previously, there were still a lot of empty rooms when the crew booked the hotel, so both Qin Lang and Qiao Lin had arranged individual rooms for them.

This time, Qin Lang did not ask the crew to change rooms, which surprised Qiao Lin.

However, now that Yu was not around, they did not have to take care of their children. It did not matter if they lived separately from time to time. In any case, Qin Lang would only stay with the crew for a day or two. After filming, he would return to B City. Furthermore, their rooms were not far from each other. He was on the fifth floor while Qin Lang was on the sixth floor.

After packing his luggage, Qiao Lin washed his face. It was almost seven o'clock in the evening. He decided to find Qin Lang to have dinner with him. Since they did not need to film tonight, they could still go to the ancient town for a walk.

Even after knocking on the door a few times, no one came to open it.

Qin Lang was not here? But they had just arrived at the hotel. Where would he go? If he was going to eat, Qin Lang would have called him.

Qiao Lin quickly dialed Qin Lang's number and waited for a long time before the other party answered. The phone was a little noisy, "Qin Lang, where are you now? I came to call you to have a meal together, but I found that there was no one in the room."

The voice on the other end of the line seemed to hesitate. "I've got some business to attend to, so I won't be joining you for dinner tonight."

Qiao Lin did not know what Qin Lang was going to do, but even a couple had their own private space, so he did not ask too much. "Alright, then. Let me know when you're done. I'll come look for you tonight."

After hanging up the phone, he left the hotel. He went to a restaurant in the ancient town to have a simple dinner. After that, he started to wander around.

It was almost the Spring Festival. He didn't expect that there would be a lot of tourists. It was already dark, and there were a lot of tourists on the street.

The old town was decorated in red, and there were lanterns, New Year's pictures, couplets, blessings, and local people out on New Year's shopping trips, carrying bags of goods, talking and laughing, with the occasional crack of a firecracker. The little old town was more festive than the populous city.

Tomorrow was another day of intense filming, and when he was free, he relaxed into it.

Soon, his hands were full. In his hands, he was holding a special snack he had bought from the street, along with some random gadgets. He had also bought Yu a handmade puppet. At this moment, he was no different from Yu. He was curious about everything and wanted everything that was new to him.

Suddenly, the sound of gongs and drums came from the distance. He tiptoed and looked toward the street.

The pedestrians on the street automatically stepped aside to make way for the dragon dance team.

"Follow the golden dragon. There will be fireworks in the square in front." Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone followed the dragon dance team. The narrow ancient street became even more congested.

Given the current situation, it would be difficult to return to the hotel in the opposite direction. Seeing that it was still early, Qiao Lin followed the crowd to the square.

Because of the fireworks display tonight, all the residents and tourists in the ancient town seemed to have gathered at the square, making it extremely crowded.

Qiao Lin regretted his decision as soon as he arrived. How could he watch the fireworks properly in such a crowded place? If he was not careful, he might even cause a safety accident.

As expected, the organizers soon realized this problem and began to send staff to disperse the crowd.

As the crowd gradually dispersed and became less crowded, Qiao Lin decided to return to the hotel.

He had already finished all the snacks that he had bought earlier and stuffed some of them into his pocket. In his hand was the wooden puppet that he had bought for Yu, which he carefully protected.

Just as he walked to the entrance of the square, a familiar figure flashed across his line of sight. That figure's figure and clothes were very similar to Qin Lang's.

Just as he was about to chase after him, the figure instantly disappeared into the crowd.

He thought that he must be seeing things. Didn't Qin Lang go to do something? How could he appear here?

Just as he was about to continue forward, an explosion suddenly sounded in the sky. Colorful fireworks exploded, illuminating the night sky.

"Wow, so beautiful." The crowd exclaimed.

Qiao Lin also turned around and raised his head.

Fireworks rose into the sky one after another and exploded in the night sky, dyeing the night sky in colorful colors.

The crowd, which had just been dispersed, gathered together once again as they chased after the fireworks. Someone beside him pushed Qiao Lin hard, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the other side.

Qiao Lin immediately panicked and reached out his hand to grab something to steady himself. Otherwise, if the people behind caught up with him, they would step over him.

However, he did not grab onto anything.

"You're so disobedient. Didn't I tell you not to run around?" Amidst the explosions of fireworks and the noisy voices, Qiao Lin suddenly heard a familiar voice.

In the next second, his waist was wrapped tightly by an arm and he fell into a warm embrace.
