The Story of Gossip Girl Chapter 14

Thankfully, Tang Jianan wasn't really an ungrateful bastard.

He drove in a circle before coming back. Lowering the windows down slightly, only a portion of his face could be seen as he coldly commanded, “Give me your phone.”

Yi Eryang was indignant as he tried to bargain, “What's wrong with me appreciating it?”

Tang Jianan gave a cold laugh, “It's fine if it's you, we welcome you as an audience. The people we need to defend against are the gossipers in your office.”

Yi Eryang could only obediently hand over his phone. Tang Jianan deleted all the photos and tosse the phone aside before letting him onto the car. The moment Eryang got in, he immediately pounced over to choke him, “I'll see if you destroy bridges next time!”

He bellowed angrily, almost biting off Tang Jianan's nose.

Tang Jianan coughed a few times, his face turning red.

Feng Ping had already receovered and picked up the phone near her. Opening up the camera app, she aimed it at them and took three photos consecutively. She raised the cellphone and snorted in laughter as she praised, “This is a good angle, it's so ambiguous, who should I send it to?”

Tang Jianan and Yi Eryang finally stopped. Giving a look towards each other, both of them shot towards her to grab the cellphone in her hands. Feng Ping let them take it as she laughed, “Are you guys hungry? Let's go eat?”

Both of them asked her at the same time, “Do you have money?”

Feng Ping gave a mirthless smile at Yi Eryang, “I didn't have any originally, but now I do. Boss Yi, I think you still owe me a paycheck.”

“Not fair not fair not fair!” Yi Eryang protested, “How come I have to be the one that pays for your date?”

“Treat it as a viewing ticket!” Tang Jianan said calmly.

Feng Ping dared to actually laugh, “Don't speak nonsense, we're not da—”

Tang Jianan interrupted her, “Ping Ping, Eryang is our friend, we don't need to hide it from him.”

Yi Eryang began to yell again, “Wow wow, big scoop, it's such big scoop.”

Feng Ping was completely fried by ‘Ping Ping' nickname and was unable to speak for a very long time only to see Tang Jianan look completely normal as he continued talking, “That's right. Ping Ping is willing to pay me four thousand dollars every hour to go on a date with her, so why wouldn't I want to?”

Feng Ping's face hardened.

Hearing this, Yi Eryang's eyes almost fell out of their sockets as he did some mental calculations, “If it's four thousand dollars an hour, if you guys are together for twenty four hours, then it ninety-six thousand dollars. If you guys are together for thirty years, and each year has three hundred and sixty five days, then that's…um, million, billion, ah—”  He suddenly yelled and turned around, grabbing Feng Ping's sleeves. He pressed his face to her arms as he put on a begging face, “Feng Ping jiejie, I beg you, let's date. Oh no, no, I want to marry you. From now on, I'm your person.”

Feng Ping had no clue when Yi Eryang learned to pout, and she didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. A hand suddenly reached out and smacked the back of his head, pushing him away. He wanted to pounce back again except Tang Jianan was grabbing his ponytail, forcing him to sit back in his seat.

Yi Eryang loved his hair the most, so he let out a string of curses as he took out a hairbrush to put it back in order again.

Tang Jianan shot him a look before opening his mouth, “Being greasy-headed is an offence against public decency.”

Yi Eryang immediately rebutted him, “Splendorous on the outside, shabby on the inside.”

Tang Jianan replied, “Vulgar.”

Yi Eryang mocked, “Impure.”

“Pretty boy.”

“You pervert, pig, devil, psycho…”

Feng Ping was breaking out into a cold sweat as she listened to them, she asked in a small voice, “Are we still eating?”

Both of them answered at the same time. One said yes, another said no.

Tang Jianan: “If you're not then get off the car.”

Yi Eryang refused, “Based on what, this is my car.”

“Based on the fact that I'm the driver.”

“Pei!”

Both of them argued back and forth until Tang Jianan found a noodle restaurant that was still open, finally stuffing his spouting mouth with some noodles. Thankfully, there weren't many customers in the restaurant so no one really noticed them. After finishing the meal, Yi Eryang very wisely immediately left. Both of them fought and made up quite quickly, so their relationship really wasn't too bad.

Tang Jianan grabbed the car keys, “It looks like you'll have to stay at my place tonight.”

Feng Ping laughed, “I'm honored. Before you decide to regret it, let's hurry and leave.”

Tang Jianan couldn't help but laugh, driving the both of them towards his villa.

Feng Ping: “I heard the gossip magazines say that you usually don't bring any women back home.”

“I also seem to remember that you said you don't pay attention to the entertainment world.”

“If you want me to stay in a hotel, I won't reject it.”

“If you want to be on the cover of tomorrow's gossip magazines tomorrow, I'll take you. If we happen to meet any reporters, then we can forget about trying to explain things. The media will definitely blow it out of proportions.”

“You don't have to explain.” Feng Ping smiled.

“It's the truth.” Tang Jianan was indifferent.

“Is your home safe?”

“I can't guarantee it, but it's definitely safer than a hotel.”

Feng Ping held a smile as she looked at him, his profile seemed to have been carved into a sculpture. She didn't know if it was because he helped her tonight, but she had a newfound sense of appreciation towards him, and couldn't help but compliment, “You're a really good person…”

Tang Jianan gave a sigh, “I'm just too stingy. I can't bear to spend money on women.”

Feng Ping saw that he still remembered this insult and snorted, “Whether you are willing to spend money on women or not, I don't know. But you really are quite petty, still remembering this joke…”

Tang Jianan seemed to have been provoked as he raised his voice, “No woman has ever said that about me.”

Feng Ping advised him, “If you're really that angry, you can give me a fat diamond to shut me up.”

Tang Jianan laughed when he heard this, “You're so shameless!”

Feng Ping: “You finally found out.”
