Part 2
Jiang Shulu: “It’s not like you won’t be able to see me in the future.”
Tang Yue still stared at him. Jiang Shulu reached out and wrote stroke by stroke in his palm: I’m not angry.
From this angle, the camera inside the car couldn’t capture it. The more the audience watched, the more they felt these two were flirting.
The staff member on the side asked again: “Can we ask now?”
Tang Yue: “Go ahead.”
Staff: “Do you have any expectations for the upcoming journey?”
Tang Yue: “I want to finish the variety show early and go to work.”
“Tang Yue suddenly being so career-minded actually makes me uneasy.”
“No way, no way, is Jiang Shulu really going to live off him?”
Jiang Shulu: “Looking forward to spending time with Xiao Mie.”
Tang Yue: “What about me?”
He interjected very quickly, his body unconsciously leaning towards Jiang Shulu, clinging very obviously.
“I totally didn’t expect Tang Yue to be like this when he’s in love (Face of Pain).”
“They were dating at the last stop, right?! What’s there to be surprised about!”
“So Xiao Mie is really going to call Jiang Shulu ‘Dad’!!”
“Xiao Mie obviously treats whoever Tang Yue likes well; this kid is particularly shrewd.”
The staff member suddenly felt like a wedding planner.
She continued asking: “The following are selected questions from fans. Some of the tones might be intense, please keep a calm mindset.”
“Jiang Shulu is actually a love-brain, so disappointing. Tang Yue, what do you think about Jiang Shulu giving up his career for you?”
“These two are both illegitimate children, birds of a feather flock together. I guess their mothers were both mistresses, right?”
“What if Jiang Shulu regrets it? Tang Yue has his own child, but he doesn’t.”
“Many same-sex couples break up. Loving so intensely right now might just be the effect of not seeing each other for five years. Won’t it be awkward if you break up later?”
“So Jiang Shulu’s birth mother isn’t that Madam Jiang?”
This editor was articulate, but reading these questions made the livestream viewers’ scalps tingle.
“I thought it would be sweet couple questions. Why are they asking such sharp questions when they’re almost at the airport?”
“Is this allowed to be asked on a live variety show?”
“That’s too much, calling someone’s mother a homewrecker! I remember when Tang Yue was exposed back then, it was his mom who was deceived! Those men from the older generation are the problem!”
“But Tang Yue’s child is indeed his child. Jiang Shulu likes Xiao Mie now, but will he really always…”
“They really haven’t been reunited for many days. Is the relationship burning a bit too hot… I’m already starting to preemptively mourn a bad ending. Don’t do this!”
The atmosphere inside the car became a bit too quiet.
Tang Yue: “Shulu-ge is not a love-brain.”
He was still gripping Jiang Shulu’s hand, holding it tight: “Why must you attach such labels to liking someone?”
The young man in the lens was wearing a deep autumn coat. You could tell the coat was new, but it fit Tang Yue’s temperament well, as if he would never dim.
He was a little angry. Those clear eyes seemed to look straight into the lens, giving people the feeling that he wanted to protect Jiang Shulu.
Tang Yue: “He didn’t give up for me, he did it for our better future.”
Tang Yue: “Is there a problem with fully supporting the person you like in what they want to do?”
He was the person who used to be unwilling to stand at the front during group interviews, jokingly called the “King of Perfunctoriness” by fans, always saying some nonsense.
The young man who hid behind the team members in years past had thoroughly grown up. He faced the camera directly, not hiding his love at all, as if he had completely walked out of the shell he had set for himself. “Shulu-ge’s mother wasn’t that kind of person.”
Tang Yue had looked through Zhou Maiyin’s resume with Jiang Shulu. How much social experience could a teenage girl have?
People are always good at subconsciously blaming the victim, yet they forget that the perpetrator is the one who needs to be judged the most.
This included the mother of the Tang Yue who originally belonged to this world, and Liang Yi’s mother.
They met bad people at every node of their lives, so their lives were as fleeting as dew, yet they left an indelible impression on their children.
Making the always indestructible Liang Yi teary-eyed on the anniversary of her mother’s death many years later.
Tang Yue drank with her, and also cried with Jiang Shulu in the empty attic.
At that moment, they were all children, not adults.
Tang Yue thought of the one related to him in this world, who was originally “Tang Yue’s” mother.
He pinched Jiang Shulu’s fingers: “My mother wasn’t either. It was all that man’s fault. Why do they still have to be like this now?”
He pursed his lips, seeming to want to say more, but was hugged by Jiang Shulu.
Jiang Shulu: “Tang Yue’s child is my child. I won’t regret it, never.”
He reached out to wipe the tears from the corner of Tang Yue’s eyes. The embrace was enough to move the audience.
Jiang Shulu: “I will stay by his side forever.”
“Everything can turn into a romance drama, I get it.”
“Who said Tang Yue lacks empathy? I think he’s quite emotional.”
“Hahaha, he’s someone who can empathize with a palace maid beaten to death while watching palace dramas with Liu Xichao!!”
“Why do I feel like Xiao Mie is really biologically his, and I have a premonition it will be made public?”
Tang Yue snorted: “Then you’re still angry with me!”
He pinched Jiang Shulu.
Jiang Shulu: “It hurts.”
Tang Yue hurriedly went to rub the place he pinched, but his hand was caught by Jiang Shulu: “Does your hand hurt?”
“I can’t take it anymore! Fork these dog men out of here for me!”
“These two are clearly enjoying a steady happiness.”
“At this moment, Tang Mian is watching his dad and Jiang Shulu flirt on the screen, smiling as brilliantly as I am, hahaha.”
The location for the final stop was set in a port city.
The city wasn’t big, but the old town had many historical sites, and the amusement facilities in the new town were quite famous.
Tang Mian had already played a round with Yao Lixin. They didn’t need to fly and had arrived very early.
Yao Lixin looked visibly haggard from taking care of the children. Although these two kids were relatively easy to manage, they still gave him a headache.
So when Tang Yue arrived, he complained for quite a while.
But Tang Yue was busy having a loving hug with Tang Mian, so Yao Lixin said it to Jiang Shulu.
“You don’t know how energetic Xiao Mie is. He even thinks the pirate ship in the children’s area is ‘just so-so.’ He’s only five years old!”
“When we got back at night, he still wanted to play Ludo with me. It was miserable; I lost everything.”
“Captain, reimburse me for the phone.”
Jiang Shulu stood in the sunlight watching Tang Yue and Tang Mian hugging, his expression while holding the copper flowers looking extremely gentle.
“Yao Lixin looks aged, hahahaha.”
“After all, he’s taking care of two. But it’s okay, isn’t his wife there too?”
“Why do Tang Yue and Tang Mian hug for so long every time? Too cute.”
“Jiang Shulu looks like he has a happy family… he got off easy.”
“Reimburse for a phone? Yao Lixin is too stingy.”
Liu Xichao was the last to arrive. Yao Lixin even asked, “Not bringing your boyfriend?”
Liu Xichao: “It’s a group variety show, brother.”
Yao Lixin: “Isn’t it a romance show?”
Liu Xichao smiled: “Does intra-group dating count as a romance show?”
“Seems logical, hahahaha. Keep the goodies within the family.”
“Damn, I actually really wanted to see Jiang He come over.”
“Jiang Shulu has fallen out with the Jiang family, but his relationship with Jiang He is still pretty good?”
“Tang Yue’s contract is signed with Chengkong, so naturally there’s no problem.”
There were no special missions for this stop. perhaps considering it was the finale, they followed a nostalgia route.
This city was the one Away had toured the most times before. Traces of their activities still existed, and most of it was revisiting old haunts.
Yao Lixin: “Did we play with mud here before?”
Liu Xichao: “Yeah, you made something very ugly.”
After arriving, everyone sat down and chatted casually. Tang Mian and Yao Xuanyu looked at the copper flowers Jiang Shulu brought and asked many questions.
Tang Yue was sandwiched between Liu Xichao and Yao Lixin and was also asked many questions.
Tang Mian asked Jiang Shulu: “Daddy Shulu, is this hard to make?”
