Three Combs: Chapter 19.2


Speaking of that night, Jiang Tiao had a lingering fear. When she woke up the next morning, her heart felt ill at ease.

Fu Ting Chuan must have been in too much of a hurry that he forgot his phone in his seat.

She grabbed it and ran out after him. He was on his war to the parking garage and hasn’t gone too far.

It didn’t take long for Jiang Tiao to catch up to him.

“Teacher Fu, you forgot your phone in the dressing room.” She panted and handed the phone back to him.

Fu Ting Chuan retrieved it and slightly smiled, “Thank you.”

Jiang Tiao blankly stares at his overly good-looking face, “It’s nothing.”

Fu Ting Chuan went on to say, "That's right."

“What’s right?” Jiang Tiao’s breath gradually stabilized.

“I gave you the drink in the afternoon and you returned my phone. It’s how it should be.” The smile that still hangs on his face looks very professional, “I found out from Assistant Xu that you weren’t feeling well so I asked him to send a hot drink over. He was reluctant at first because he doesn’t want to cause any unnecessary misunderstanding. Only when I told him to send it over using my name did he agree. I thought this is what I should do to take care of my fans.”

So he was forced by Assistant Xu to write his name on the cup?

Jiang Tiao can imagine how it started. If that is true then she was overthinking it.

She thought Fu Ting Chuan had ulterior motives and intentions for her…..

……

……

“Fudge, how can you be so shameless.” Xu Che wants to vomit blood after hearing his narration. Fu Ting Chuan, this master of talking nonsense, turned his assistant into a stumbling block!

Fu Ting Chuan put a fist to his lips and coughed twice, “In the future, don’t do this again. It’s unnecessary.”

Although he wasn’t clear how Jiang Tiao knew he was the one who sent her the milk, seeing the girl’s changing expression, he knew that she bought what he said.

At the very least, it temporarily allowed to get out of this sticky situation.

But there was something that Fu Ting Chuan didn’t tell Xu Che.

That is, after he and Jiang Tiao said goodbye, when they were two meters away, she chased after him again.

Yes, Jiang Tiao stopped Fu Ting Chuan. Her heart is not as peaceful as how she appeared to be.

She built up the courage to ask, “Do you treat all your fans this good?” She doesn’t believe it.

Fu Ting Chuan stayed silent. As if playing Taichi, he pushed the question back and forth in his head, “What about you? Do you want me to treat all my fans this well or….only to a certain fan?”

He stared at her intently.

Under this gaze, Jiang Tiao….felt a blush rising to her face.

Her heart is jumping wildly like stars flickering in the sky.

Fortunately, the night is dark so he reaction isn’t shown well.

She doesn’t know.

She really doesn't know which one is correct, as if both choices are wrong.

She only wants to find the truth but instead, she was left dumbfounded.

In short, it is a fail! Loser Jiang!

Jiang Tiao hated that she couldn’t knock her head on the ground and give her two slaps on the head to wake up her brain.

Since then, Jiang Tiao can no longer face Fu Ting Chuan.

She always felt that she was careful in hiding her feelings but in the end, he was able to find out.

Fu Ting Chuan stayed the same as usual and didn’t give her any strange looks.

After some peaceful days, the crew ushered in Fu Ting Chuan’s last scene in the drama.

This scene is filmed at night.

There, Fu Ting Chuan didn’t come to the studio that day.

It wasn’t until six o’clock in the afternoon that Jiang Tiao received a call from master to come back to the dressing room to give “Xue Shao” his last makeup.

Last time…..time sure flies.

Jiang Tiao packed up her tools and hurried back to the dressing room.

Fu Ting Chuan is already sitting there alone. Xu Che isn’t there as well.

The sound of a few girls from the costume department whispering in the costume room was barely audible.

Therefore, there are only two of them in the empty room.

Like the first and many times, Jiang Tiao applied the same and simple makeup on him.

After she put on the final touch, she put her hands down and look at the man who, as usual, has his eyes closed. She whispered.

“Done.”

Every time, she couldn’t bear to wake him up. Filming is too difficult.

The concealer to hide his dark circles gets heavier every day.

She looked down at her hands. These hands touched his cheeks, lips, eyes, and hair. After today, she wouldn’t be able to anymore.

However, she was grateful for this production which allowed her studio to do the makeup for “Taiping.” If not, there will not be any opportunities for her to see Fu Ting Chuan up close.

Fu Ting Chuan opened his eyes. The first thing he sees is the teary-eyed Jiang Tiao, looking like a white bunny with her lips raised in a curve.

What happened to her? She’s looking at him while crying and laughing.

She quickly looked away and start to clean up the mess on the table. For the first time, she looks busy.

Fu Ting Chuan silently watch her put on the lid of the bottles and arranged them in place.

She has the best hands in his world and the only surprise he encountered in his life.

It’s just that she doesn’t know it.

For a moment, his heart heaved up and down. He called out to her, “Jiang Tiao.”

“Hm?” Her hands stopped.

“I’m done with my scenes.” He calmly explained. He is explaining that he is leaving.

Upset, Jiang Tiao desperately look for something to divert her attention. Her line of sight fell on the blush in hand which she had no idea when she picked up.

She can only play with it to prevent herself from staring at Fu Ting Chuan’s face as she tries to hold back her tears.

She quietly says, “That’s good. You can finally rest.”

Fu Ting Chuan jokes, trying to ease the atmosphere, “Do you have any parting words?”

“This is not a middle school graduation.” Jiang Tiao’s hand froze as she smiled.

For the first time, she felt that smiling can be so tiring.

Fu Ting Chuan who has been watching her the entire time can see what she is feeling, “Thank you for your hard work all this time.”

“It’s nothing. It’s not like it is volunteer work. I also have a salary.” She pursed her lips.

Fu Ting Chuan just sat there and didn’t move as if he didn’t know how many people are waiting for him to make his appearance on set, “Is there really nothing you want to say to me?”

“No.”

“Nothing about work?”

“No……”

“How about your mood during this time?” He cautiously questioned, afraid that he would scare the gentle girl in front of him.

“You’re asking me how I feel working with you right?” She finally dared to look him in the eye.

“Yes.” Fu Ting Chuan steadily held her gaze, never letting go.

“It’s like this. This is my mood.” she picked up a bottle from the table and pushed it toward him.

It is a Makeup For Ever Water Blend Foundation.

This type of liquid foundation is unusual and strange.

Seeing his undisguised confusion, Jiang Tiao found it funny.

This cute heterosexual man who sees admires probably doesn’t know what she is trying to express. For the many days he has been with her, he gave her so many feelings that are just like this.

A few days ago, his veiled attitude made her swallow back the words on the tip of her tongue so she couldn’t tell him clearly.

It is okay for her to only watch him silently at a distance.

This time has been unforgettable. Everything had been beautiful and it is moving so fast that she can’t prevent it–––

You definitely do not know that this bottle of the foundation also has a Chinese name.

Life is but a dream.

And that dream is you.
