Chapter 3457: Until We Meet Again, Miss Svet

A few days ago, Ye Chen followed Tawana as they shuttled between several cities, accompanying her to successfully conclude all her performances in China.

Actually, after the shows in Yanjing, Ye Chen had already regretted taking this job, but having committed, there was no turning back—he had told his wife he would serve as Tawana's feng shui supervisor throughout, and he couldn't well abandon her midway.

After the twenty concerts, Chanyang Automobile gained tremendous fame nationwide and even worldwide.

Although to date, Chanyang Automobile has not yet released a single car model.

But Ye Chen clearly understood that since they were opening for business, they must follow one principle: fame must come early.

Internet celebrity Lei Busi had already stirred up hype before even founding Xiaomi Automobile, declaring he would stake his lifetime honor on fighting for Xiaomi Automobile, which instantly put the company's cars in the spotlight, and unsurprisingly, sales later exploded.

Chanyang Automobile was named after Ye Chen's father, so Ye Chen also hoped, at any cost, to make this brand truly great and strong, becoming a pride of the Chinese nation's brands.

And Tawana's twenty concerts were a great help to Chanyang Automobile—while the world focused on the performances, it also learned of this extraordinarily capable automobile brand.

Ye Chen believed that when Chanyang Automobile launched its first model next year, it would surely create a miracle in domestic car sales.

As the performances all came to an end, Tawana's mood visibly deteriorated.

After the shows, she was to return to the United States; originally, after her Tokyo concert she was to begin vacation and go home to be with family, but this delay lasted a month, her family missed her greatly, and her team members' families also longed for their own kin, yet she did not want to leave.

Knowing Ye Chen had transformed her worldview, she had deeply fallen for this powerful yet restrained Chinese man; originally in her world, music ranked first, but lately she often fantasized that if Ye Chen were to elope with her, she would unhesitatingly abandon all her resources and status in the music and entertainment circles.

Only regrettably, she also knew this Chinese man had no interest in her.

At the celebration banquet after all performances ended, Tawana drank an entire bottle of red wine; afterward, her eyes glazed over, she never took her gaze off Ye Chen's face, staring straight at him, her eyes visibly becoming silk-like.

After this time together, her team members had already seen that she had fallen for Ye Chen, so everyone tacitly understood.

Tawana had always treated her team members well, so their loyalty was also very high; even if the two of them really slept together during the tour, this news would certainly not leak to the outside world.

Only regrettably, Tawana simply lacked that charm.

Tawana knew that after Ye Chen finished this meal, he would return to Jin Ling, and after they parted, she did not know when they might meet again.

So, after drinking too much, she ignored the other team members nearby, went straight to Ye Chen, grabbed his sleeve, her eyes reddened, and asked: "Mr. Ye, will we have a chance to meet again in the future?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "As long as you maintain close cooperation with Chanyang Automobile, we will still have many opportunities to meet in the future."

Tawana said: "Then when you launch your car models, you must invite me to be the global spokesperson—I won't take a penny."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Being a spokesperson is certainly no problem, but we will definitely pay what is due; also, since you are so good at writing songs, why not write one for our Chanyang Automobile when the time comes?"

"No problem!" Tawana agreed without hesitation, saying: "You have me give Chanyang Automobile a free album—I have no objection."

Ye Chen smiled: "Having your word is enough."

Tawana asked him again: "By the way, Mr. Ye, after you return to Jin Ling, what are your plans? Well, the Chinese lunar new year is coming up soon—are you not planning to go on a vacation?"

Ye Chen dared not tell her his actual plans, so he laughed and said: "For now, I have no particular plans; I'll decide later."

Tawana sighed with some regret: "Ah, actually I don't really want to return to the United States either. But my family keeps urging me to go back quickly, and I'm still thinking whether to pick a vacation spot to meet them directly there."

Ye Chen puzzled: "Why don't you want to return to the United States? Being at home with your family isn't also nice? After all, you've been away this long."

Tawana looked embarrassed; she of course wanted to go back to see her family, but her reason for not wanting to return to the United States was also very simple: she did not want to see her boyfriend, Trevor Kennedy.

Their relationship had undergone a qualitative change; the one who had changed heart would subconsciously want to stay away from the other, avoiding contact as much as possible.

Best would be to sustain a period of not seeing each other, not communicating—what people commonly call cold violence.

And an even better outcome would be that after a period of cold violence, the other party could no longer bear it and directly propose a breakup, whereupon she could seize the opportunity to agree readily without meeting, thus ending a relationship she had long wanted to end.

So Tawana hoped even more not to return to the United States, or if she did, to stay only a short time and then immediately find an excuse to leave.

But she could not tell Ye Chen all that was in her heart, for fear he would think she was a woman who starts affairs and abandons them; thus she deliberately pretended to be very fatigued, saying: "Actually, returning to the United States makes it hard to get true rest—media reporters and paparazzi will keep hounding me, even if I stay at home, they will linger around my house; compared to that, I would rather find a quiet place to properly enjoy a vacation."

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "That idea is not bad either—since you want to do it, just go ahead."

After saying that, Ye Chen added: "Oh, by the way, I've already booked an early morning flight at six today back to Jin Ling; it's already past one a. m., and in two more hours I'll depart—wishing you a safe journey home in advance."

Tawana exclaimed in surprise and disappointment: "Mr. Ye, you're leaving so soon—why not book a later flight so you could rest a bit?"

"No." Ye Chen smiled: "I miss my wife—I want to go back early to see her."

Tawana slumped, nodded, and gathered courage to say: "Mr. Ye, let me see you off to the airport later!"

"No need." Ye Chen politely declined: "I've already booked a ride-hailing car to pick me up at the hotel; besides, if you, a big star, were to run to the airport to see me off, should anyone spot you, it might cause gossip, which would be bad for both you and me."

"Well…"

Tawana felt heartbroken, but with things as they are, she could think of no better way, so she could only say emotionally in a soft voice: "Then I also wish Mr. Ye a safe journey!"

Ye Chen lightly nodded at her, smiled, and said: "Until we meet again, Miss Svet."

Until four a. m., the team's celebration banquet continued—after all, they had held twenty shows in one month, which for Tawana, after so many years in the industry, was a first; everyone set a new work record while also receiving unprecedentedly high bonuses. Add to that the imminent long holiday, so everyone's mood was very good.

When Ye Chen left, Tawana dared not go downstairs to see him off; she could only stay upstairs in the banquet hall, looking out the window as Ye Chen got into a ride-hailing car far below.

At that moment, the tears welling in her eyes could no longer be contained, and she burst into tears.

At that time, her manager came to her side, gently took her hand to comfort her: "Tawana, some things are just like this—there will always be regrets; you must learn to let go."

"I know." Tawana quickly wiped her tears, self-mockingly smiled: "I know I, this kind of woman, am simply not worthy of Mr. Ye; sometimes you just can't control yourself from falling in love with a man you cannot possibly love."

After saying that, she again reached out to wipe away the tears that had just flowed, and said to her manager: "Help me pick a vacation spot as quiet as possible; I want to return to the United States, stay one night at home, then immediately set off with my family—don't plan for Trevor, I just want to be with my family."

Her manager nodded understandingly: "If you want absolute quiet and no disturbance from paparazzi, then only island resorts or the like would be suitable—one island, one hotel; if you're not a guest, there's basically no chance to get on the island, which can effectively keep out paparazzi and reporters."

"No problem." Tawana immediately said: "You go pick it—choose the best; once chosen, you needn't tell me, just arrange my itinerary—I want to go back to my room to rest."

"All right! I'll get right to selecting it properly!"
