TMLSG -Chapter 65 Miss You, Wife

Ren Yanjing: ???

He had broken up—how did he not know?

His voice was low as he asked, “Shen Quanli, what are you talking about?”

Shen Quanli looked innocent. “I’m not making it up. Everyone’s spreading it—saying you and Tang Zhen broke up.”

“That’s right, and they even made it sound official—saying Tang Zhen’s mother forced the breakup, with pictures and videos too.”

Turns out students in media arts were way too idle—they even recorded conversations between alumni and their parents.

Of course, the person filming was still far from the subjects; the video was blurry, and you couldn’t hear much.

Ren Yanjing said, “What does this prove?”

Shen Quanli patted Ren Yanjing’s shoulder. “Anyway, as it spread, it just turned into you two breaking up.”

“But honestly, I didn’t believe it at first—not the part about Tang Zhen’s mother forcing the breakup.”

Shen Quanli teased, “Our captain is so outstanding—Tang Zhen’s mom wouldn’t even look down on him?”

Ren Yanjing glanced at the time: 8:15 PM.

His baby should be at the hotel by now, right?

Thinking that, he immediately dialed a video call.

Tang Zhen had indeed arrived at the hotel in L City, ready to attend the exhibition the next day.

During this time, she had received multiple 60-second voice messages from her mother.

She simply marked them as read without replying.

When Ren Yanjing called, she was about to go shopping with two senior classmates.

“Going out?” he asked.

“Yeah, going to browse with two senior classmates.”

Ren Yanjing casually asked, “You three are staying together?”

“Yeah, we share a room.”

After that, Tang Zhen showed him the room layout. “The two of them are in the same class and share the big bed; I sleep on the small bed next to it.”

Ren Yanjing suddenly said, “I’ve actually never been to L City either.”

Tang Zhen was slightly surprised. “Then do you want to see it?”

“I do.”

Tang Zhen said, “Then I’ll show you on livestream later.”

“Okay.”

After she ended the video call, one senior classmate came over. “Is your boyfriend checking up on you?”

Checking up?

For Tang Zhen, that was an unfamiliar term.

Before, she had been checking Ren Yanjing’s position for a mission. Now it seemed the roles were reversed—he was checking up on her?

What was this—male lead and supporting female checking up on each other?

The senior classmate said, “Let’s go, let’s go! Time to go shopping!”

Tang Zhen would keep the promise she made to Ren Yanjing.

Out on the street, she indeed made a video call to show him the L City night market.

L City’s evenings were lively, with lots of street food.

In the end, Tang Zhen only bought a stick of candied fruit—a mix of strawberries and hawthorn.

The two senior classmates bought quite a lot of stuff.

Back at the hotel, one went to shower, the other called her boyfriend, and Tang Zhen went to the balcony to chat with Ren Yanjing.

Ren Yanjing asked, “After your exams, baby, is there anything you want to do?”

Tang Zhen didn’t have much in mind. After the New Year and the start of winter break, it would be almost time for her to break up with the male lead.

She tilted her head. “Does going to some scenic mountains and rivers to gather inspiration count?”

“It does.”

Tang Zhen asked, “And you? Anything you want to do?”

Ren Yanjing replied, “Yes.”

“What is it?”

His voice came through the screen, soft and tingling in Tang Zhen’s ears, “To go gathering inspiration with you.”

After that, neither spoke.

Ren Yanjing actually had a lot of questions he wanted to ask.

For example—why did your mom come to see you today?

Had her mom really forced her to break up?

But the moment he saw Tang Zhen, it didn’t seem important anymore. Whatever her mother said or did no longer mattered.

Troubles appear—they are simply meant to be solved.

Since he started developing robots, he didn’t know how many challenges he had faced, but every single one had eventually been overcome.

He didn’t believe Tang Zhen’s mother could be an obstacle.

Find her weakness, overcome it—that was what he was best at.

The next day, Tang Zhen, five classmates, and the teacher arrived at the venue of the art exhibition.

The exhibition was quite large, spanning three floors.

Tang Zhen’s works were displayed on the second floor.

This time participating, she saw many excellent pieces, which inspired her and gave her new ideas.

Indeed, this world never lacks talented people.

She would have to work even harder.

As 111 had said, no matter Tang Zhen’s mother, Tang’s father, or anyone else, they were just passersby in her life. She shouldn’t let her mother’s negative emotions affect her.

The exhibition would run for three days.

During this time, Tang Zhen made many like-minded new friends.

They agreed to go gathering inspiration together in the future.

Truly, doing what one loves makes it easy to feel happy—so much so that one can even lose track of time.

111 asked Tang Zhen, 【Zhen, what do you want to do in the future?】

Tang Zhen didn’t even need to think; she answered immediately, “I want to be a painter.”

111 encouraged her: 【That’s great.】

Tang Zhen asked, “But after completing the mission, can I still use the name Tang Zhen?”

111 replied, 【Of course. Nothing else will change—only your identity will. You can choose a new identity as a reward from the mission: for example, a wealthy daughter returning from studying abroad, or a student at a prestigious art university.】

【In other people’s eyes, you’ll just be someone who looks exactly like Mrs. Zhou’s biological daughter and has the same name. But if DNA were tested, you would no longer be related.】

Tang Zhen understood.

By then, she would have a completely new background.

Totally separate from who she was now.

The next day would be the last day of the exhibition.

That evening, Tang Zhen would fly back to J City.

So she planned to go out with the two senior classmates that evening, looking for souvenirs to bring back as gifts.

She wanted to bring gifts for many people—Tiantian, Yezi, Zhuzi, Ren Yan’er, Ren Yan’en, and even Ren Yanjing.

She picked many gifts. On the way back to the hotel with the two senior classmates, she received a call from Ren Yanjing.

“Baby, are you at the hotel?”

Tang Zhen replied honestly, “No, just finished shopping. On my way back to the hotel.”

Ren Yanjing said nothing more, “Be careful of the traffic.”

After hanging up, Tang Zhen and the senior classmates chatted and laughed for more than ten minutes while walking, almost reaching the hotel.

Just a few meters from the hotel, 111 suddenly screamed wildly in her mind.

【Ahhhhhhhh!】

Tang Zhen: ???

【Zhen! Front-right!!! Front-right!!!】

Tang Zhen instinctively looked to the front-right.

There stood a young man wearing a pilot jacket, with obsidian earrings glinting in the night.

He looked very tall, around 1.9 meters, with a uniquely striking aura—too outstanding, too eye-catching.

Nearby, several people were watching, hesitant to approach but clearly wanting his contact information.

Near him, a familiar ice-blue Porsche was parked.

This was…?

Ren Yanjing?

Tang Zhen had just recognized him when he started walking quickly toward her.

His charming, handsome face gradually revealed under the streetlight, clear as if within reach.

Tang Zhen was slightly stunned. “Ren Yanjing, what are you doing here?”

The next second, she heard him softly say,

“Because—I missed you, wife.”
