The Tang Family’s Seven Os Chapter 37 - TTFSO Chapter 37

Chapter 37 - TTFSO Chapter 37

In the evening, Tang Er Yuan gave Zhou Ze a welcome dinner and chose one of his favourite restaurants for dinner. As soon as he entered, he saw Li Can and Li Xin Ran sitting in the corner in an obtrusive manner. Zhou Ze also saw them, his eyes obviously darkened.
He had forgotten that this restaurant had been introduced to him by Li Can, and that his and Li Can’s tastes were as compatible as they were in bed, so they both liked this restaurant and came here to have a good meal before each date, and now they naturally wanted to bring someone they liked to try out the food here.
Tang Er Yuan wanted to turn around and leave, but the waiter had already led him and Zhou Ze to their seats, so he had no choice but to take a seat not far from Li Can and Li Xin Ran.
Because of Li Xin Ran’s presence, Zhou Ze looked a bit restrained, his back was stiff and he looked very uncomfortable.
Tang Er Yuan could understand, after all, he and Li Xin Ran are ex-boyfriends that has only just broken up. Although he didn’t know why they had broken up, they must have had their reasons.
If Zhou Ze doesn’t say, he won’t ask. He thought that as a good man, he should know how to understand people and not bother about the past.
After the two of them had ordered, Tang Er Yuan smiled and asked Zhou Ze about his life abroad, “How have you been all these years?”
Zhou Ze thought for a moment in silence, his expression dark, and said only: “There’s nothing to say.”
He obviously didn’t want to talk about it, and once again, Tang Er Yuan was kind enough not to ask anymore questions and decided to change the subject.
He looked down for a moment, unable to think of anything else to say for the moment, and had to pretend to drink water to defuse the brief awkwardness.
But his eyes couldn’t help but run towards Li Can and Li Xin Ran.
Li Can was sitting diagonally in front of Tang Er Yuan, separated by an aisle and facing the direction of Tang Er Yuan, so he could see him as soon as he looked up.
Li Can is very handsome, otherwise Tang Er Yuan would not have rolled with him in the first place, and rolled with him for so many years in succession. His eyebrows are deep, his nose is straight, his jaw line is clear. He is dressed in a casual suit, and his gestures are full of charm.
Li Xin Ran is wearing a white sweater today. He was thin before he left the country, and now he is even thinner, with a frail beauty.
He had the familiar pink roses on his table. Tang Er Yuan glanced at them and looked away. Vulgar, so vulgar.
The two have been together for three years, in bed together and with the same tastes, but they never compromise on the aesthetics of red roses and pink roses, and as usual, they still both each despise it.
Tang Er Yuan shifted his eyes upwards, Li Can was holding a red wine and personally pouring it for Li Xin Ran, smiling with a gentle face, as if he was telling some kind of joke, which made Li Xin Ran cover his lips and laugh twice.
Tang Er Yuan couldn’t help but give a ‘tsk’, Li Can and him didn’t have such tender moments together. Every time they met, they just did it if they were going to do it and at most, they lingered for a while afterwards.
Not sure why but Tang Er Yuan was not happy. Because Zhou Ze had returned, so the good mood that had been high had turned low.
When the waiter came to ask what kind of wine he wanted, Tang Er Yuan said angrily without even thinking: “A bottle of cold beer!”
He felt that he needed a cold beer to quench his anger at the moment.
The air stood still for a second, and he looked up to see Zhou Ze’s wide eyes and the waiter’s awkward smile, instantly coming back to his senses that this was a Western restaurant.
The waiter tried to remain polite and said, “……Sir, sorry, we don’t have any beer here.”
Tang Er Yuan raised a svelte smile and said graciously and decently, “I’m just kidding.”
He gently floated a glance at the red wine on Li Can’s table, “Just give me a bottle of 1982 red wine.”
“Okay, customer……” The waiter retreated.
Tang Er Yuan looked down and straightened his collar, no longer looking towards Li Can’s table. The red rose he had hidden in his heart for years was close at hand, he had to behave well to not lose face again like he had just done.
The steak was quickly brought up and Zhou Ze ate it slowly and methodically, the way he cut the steak bit by bit looked great in the eyes of Tang Er Yuan.
“How does it taste?” Tang Er Yuan asked in a soft voice.
Zhou Ze nodded, then smiled bitterly, “I haven’t had such an expensive steak in many years.”
Zhou Ze’s family ran several companies and was a member of the capital’s upper class circle, which could have been equal to the Li family. Unfortunately in recent years, Zhou Ze’s father had listened to his mistress and made several wrong decisions, almost emptying out the Zhou family, which was left with an empty shell, barely maintaining decency. Meanwhile the Li family, after being taken over by Li Can, had made a fortune from several big projects all, and their business had flourished and expanded several times, long since not comparable to the Zhou family.
Li Xin Ran’s family is an educated family and both parents are university professors, but they can’t get into the Zhou family’s eyes. Zhou Ze’s family attaches importance to matching families, and they look down on the talented Li Xin Ran’s family, while Li Xin Ran’s family doesn’t like Zhou Ze’s family that is full of copper smell, so both families are strongly opposed to the relationship.
Zhou Ze was full of energy back then, and since the two families disagreed, he took Li Xin Ran out of the country directly. When they left, they were full of longing for life abroad, and threatened to return home after making a breakthrough abroad.
Now, it seems like they did not had a good time abroad, at least from the look on Zhou Ze’s face, it is clear that the memories abroad are not good for him.
Tang Er Yuan frowned in distress as rainbow fart was spoken in a consummate manner, “You originally should be eating such exquisite food, I’ll come back with you more often when I have time in the future.”
Zhou Ze smiled appreciatively, his whole face softened a little.
Tang Er Yuan knew him, he carried an air of arrogance in his bones, he must be happy to hear that.
Zhou Ze smiled gently: “Er Yuan, you’ve always been so kind to me, you haven’t changed after all these years.”
When Zhou Ze smiled, Tang Er Yuan was like a cloud floating in the sky, light and airy, and the smile on his face became even brighter, “If you are happy, I am happy.”
Li Can saw the silly smile on Tang Er Yuan’s face from afar and couldn’t help but frown.
Cut, the smile was not nice at all, it still looks better when you smile in bed.
The more he thought about it, the further away he got, the more brightly coloured memories kept coming back to him, and he couldn’t help but be slightly out of his mind.
When Li Xin Ran finished talking, he looked up and saw that he was drifting off, so he couldn’t help but call out to him, “Li Can?”
“……Ah?” Li Can came back to his senses and was busy looking at Li Xin Ran with a gentle face.
Li Xin Ran smiled and said in a low voice, “Li Can, I just said I have something I want to ask you for help.”
If he could help Li Xin Ran, Li Can was naturally happy to do so, he smiled and said : “Just say what you need.”
Li Xin Ran pursed his lips, “You know it, I studied directing, now I have a good script in my hand, I have been preparing all these years, wanting to make this script into a movie, but in foreign countries……”
Li Xin Ran paused, his face had a momentary downturn, he took a sip of water before continuing: “It’s not easy to make it into a movie abroad, now I’ve only just returned to China, I didn’t know who to look for to invest. I heard that you opened an entertainment company, so…… ”
Li Can understood, nodded and said: “Just nice, our company can invest.”
Li Xin Ran laughed, his voice sounding as if he was relieved, “Aren’t you even going to ask what script it is?”
Li Can revealed a gentle smile, his eyes deep, “I believe in your taste, the movie you want to make must be good.”
He didn’t care if the film was successful or not, it was enough to make Li Xin Ran happy.
Li Xin Ran blushed and lowered his head, “I also hope you can get your company’s Tang San Yuan to play the male lead in this movie of mine, his temperament is very suitable.”
This Li Xin Ran really opened his mouth like a lion. Tang San Yuan was an idol and later turned into an actor. Now he is gaining momentum and is one of the most popular artists of the year. He wants to enter the big screen this year and develop in the direction of movies. His first film work will naturally attract a lot of attention. With him, it is equivalent to the guarantee of ratings. Li Xin Ran, a little-known director, only directed his first work and wanted him to act. Without Li Can, it would be impossible.
“San Yuan……Can’t it be others?” Li Can hesitated, Tang San Yuan is indeed an artist in his company, but Tang San Yuan is the younger brother of Tang Er Yuan. Because of the Tang Er Yuan’s relationship, Li Can does not want to wrong him, he has always given him the greatest freedom, letting him pick his own scripts, and Tang San Yuan has a hot temper. If he does not like the script, even if Li Can wants him to act, he will not agree.
Li Xin Ran insisted, his voice was a bit eager, “I’ve observed, his temperament is the most compatible with the main character of this script in the entertainment industry. The character in the script is an idol singer like him, if he plays the role, the singing part in the movie can use his original voice, this will be more realistic and can better introduce the audience to the plot. Moreover I’ve seen his works, with his acting skills, I believe he can bring this character to life. Now, it just so happens that he wants to move into the film industry, this is a good time, I have thought about it, only he is the most suitable, Li Can you help me……”
The pink rose that has been in Li Can’s heart for years was softly pleading with him, naturally he wanted to open his mouth to agree, but he looked at Tang Er Yuan who was sitting not far away and stopped his words in time. He had to ask Tang Er Yuan and Tang San Yuan’s opinion before making a decision, so he only pursed his lips and said noncommittally, “I will reply to you when I go back to the company to see San Yuan’s schedule. ”
Li Xin Ran nodded, it was good enough to get such a promise from Li Can, he knew in his heart that he won’t be able to get Li Can to agree all of a sudden.
“Then wait for me to send you the script and you can read it.”
“Ok.” Li Can nodded his head in agreement.
Li Xin Ran curled his lips and smiled, a smile that made Li Can’s heart flutter, and he instantly revealed a smile as well.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Tang Er Yuan wipe the corner of Zhou Ze’s mouth with a tissue, and the smile on his face could not help but stiffen.
He couldn’t help but grimace, dirty as hell.
Across from him, Li Xin Ran saw the irritation on his face and couldn’t help but touch his cheek and ask: “What’s wrong?”
Li Can hurriedly withdrew his eyes and smiled at him: “Nothing.”
With a sweep from the corner of his eye, he saw Tang Er Yuan get up and go in the direction of the bathroom, so he added, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
Li Xin Ran nodded and said ok, and Li Can got up with a smile, then couldn’t wait to follow Tang Er Yuan into the bathroom.
Tang Er Yuan was washing his hands, and when Li Can came in, he looked up slightly at Li Can, then continued to wash his hands with no expression.
Li Can leaned to the side, looking at him with his hands clasped over his chest, his expression indifferent.
Tang Er Yuan looked steadily forward, slowly and methodically dried his hands, looked at him through the mirror and said with an anger he did not notice, “Mr. Li, is the wine good?”
When Tang Er Yuan asked, his eyes tilted upwards with an indescribable charm, looking at Li Can’s made the fire in his heart rise.
The two looked at each other, and Li Can pulled Tang Er Yuan directly into the cubicle and kissed.
Both of them used some force when they kissed, the nameless anger they had been suppressing all night had nowhere to go, and only when they bit each other did they feel a little more comfortable.
Tang Er Yuan tilted his head up and kissed Li Can’s lips hard, biting him lightly on the lower lip.
Li Can returned the kiss even more fiercely, holding him firmly in his arms, with none of the poise he had in front of Li Xin Ran, but only a strong predation.
At the end of the kiss, both of them were gasping for breath, Tang Er Yuan’s lips were slightly red and swollen from the kiss, and his eyes were moist and red.
He reached out and rubbed the end of Tang Er Yuan’s slightly red eyes, his fingers gradually slipped down and cupped Tang Er Yuan’s chin and rubbed it gently.
Tang Er Yuan slightly tilted his head sideways.
He came up to Tang Er Yuan’s ear, his voice low as he laughed softly, “Yuan Yuan, Zhou Ze is right outside, yet you’re here kissing me.”
