Qinghe is a coastal city with a history of over 500 years, like many famous cities in China, the river was there before the city, and the city was named after the river.

  The Qinghe River, which runs through the entire city, is the mother river of 7 million people in Qinghe City. The river basin covers more than 90% of the city's area, and all seven counties and three districts have the shadow of the Qinghe River flowing through them. The fertile land on the entire Qinghe Plain relies entirely on the silent and selfless irrigation of the Qinghe River.

  Late autumn nights are not a good time to appreciate the night view of Qinghe River.

  The night wind was a bit cold, with a faint hint of sea saltiness.

  The Qinghe Opera House is located on the banks of the Clear River in the city, and to Tian Liang's eyes, this slightly Western-style building should be the most beautiful building in Qinghe City. It was built eight years ago and was solely funded by the famous overseas Chinese Mr. Chen Wen-yi, so its official name is called Wen-yi Opera House.

  Xiang Tianliang came to find "Shifu" Liu Qingqing, taking the initiative to find Liu Qingqing, this was the first time, before Liu Qingqing had taken the initiative to send him tickets for the play, Xiang Tianliang couldn't refuse, he accepted the tickets but didn't go, however Liu Qingqing didn't blame him either. The seats she gave were all in the front row, Liu Qingqing must have been able to see them on stage, but she never showed any dissatisfaction.

  As for watching plays, especially the local opera of Qinghe, Yue Opera, he has never been interested since childhood. He thinks he doesn't have artistic cells and always believes that the stage performance of traditional operas is too far away from his era and life experiences.

  The poster reads that tonight's performance is "Pan Fu So", one of the signature plays of Liu Qingqing, the leading lady of the Qinghe Yue Opera Troupe. Fortunately, it also says on the poster that Liu Qingqing will not be performing tonight, but will only serve as artistic director, and her protégée, who is about to participate in the provincial opera competition, will take her place.

  Looking at his watch, it was exactly 9:01 PM, and the play should have been two-thirds through.

  He walked around the theater's main entrance towards the bright sky and arrived at a small door in the backyard.

  But the old man guarding the door refused to let us in.

  "Old comrade, I'm here looking for my sister Liu Qingqing." Xiang Tianliang told a lie.

  The old man sneered and curled his lip, "Kid, don't try to pull this off. Every night when she's performing, there are always some self-proclaimed 'brothers' or 'sisters' coming to find her. I've seen plenty of them. Which temple did you pop out from?"

  Toward Tian Liang, crying and laughing helplessly, this kind of worldly-wise old man, with words that can't be fooled.

  "I have her elder brother's number." This is a good reason, Liu Qingqing is a big name in Qinghe, ordinary people don't know her phone number.

  The old man finally loosened up and picked up the phone beside him, "Report your number and name."

  Xiang Tianliang didn't want to reveal his name at first, hesitated for a moment, and then said it out loud.

  Passed smoothly.

  As he entered, Tian Liang couldn't help but glare at the old man, who had been loyal to his duties and had inadvertently revealed a flaw in his plan. Originally, he hadn't wanted to leave any traces of himself finding Liu Qingqing.

  "Don't run around, Director Liu is in makeup room No. 1." The old man shouted at the back of Xiang Tianliang.

  There were many people in the background, and the actors rushed back and forth, no one paying attention to the dawn.

  "It's daytime, how did you end up here."

  Liu Qing excitedly pulled Xiang Tianliang into the dressing room.

  "I'd like to go see Teacher's wife."

  Her face turned bright red.

  This stems from Liu Qingqing's excessive "passion", a passion that began when he first visited Xiang Tianliang, a passion like fire, so passionate that Xiang Tianliang couldn't bear it, and every time, his body would have intense chemical reactions.

  Liu Qingqing is thirty-five years old this year. She is a national first-class actor and the deputy head of the Qinghe Yue Opera Troupe. Three years ago, she married Yu Feilong, and both of them are in their second marriage.

  Can't help but say, Liu Qingqing's beauty and devilish figure give people a criminal impulse. She doesn't look like a middle-aged woman at all, completely the appearance of a 28-year-old girl in her prime. Especially her waist that can't be any thinner, just like her surname, swaying gently like a willow tree. It's really unknown how she managed to portray so many roles that resonate deeply with people on stage.

  It is said that in the past, Liu Qingqing had suitors by the tens of thousands, but she married a ordinary fisherman and divorced five years ago. Her current suitors are even more impressive, including high-ranking officials from provinces and cities, overseas Chinese, private entrepreneurs, and second-generation officials and rich people. It is hard to understand how Yu Feilong, who has no remarkable conditions, won the heart of Liu Qingqing, who is eight years younger than him, among many suitors.

  Many things in this world cannot be measured by common sense.

  "Still blushing like that, you're really just a kid."

  Liu Qing's passion remained unchanged, she boldly held onto Xiang Tianliang's face and gently kissed him.

  This seems like the third time, the first was in her kitchen at home, and the second was in her Santana car.

  Liu Qingqing pulled Xiang Tianliang down to sit, her jade-like hands lingering on his knees as she softly asked, "Is there something you want to talk to sister about?"

  "It's nothing, it doesn't matter."

  "Really nothing?"

  "It's just, I want to go pick up my teacher's mother and bring her home."

  Liu Qingqing pretended to be angry. "Silly boy. How many times have I told you? You're not allowed to call me Shifu's mother, you must call me Liu Jie."

  "Older sister Liu." Xiang Tianliang called out in a timid voice, thinking to himself, things are not going well at work, and now I have another older sister.

  Liu Qingqing smiled sweetly, "This is more like my brother." She glanced at Xiang Tianliang who was restless and added in a low voice, "Don't worry, I won't tell Old Yu about what's between us."

  Xiang Tianliang nodded and said, "Liu Jie, I didn't disturb your work, did I?"

  Liu Qingqing shook her head and said, "Speak up, what brings you to find me?"

  Nothing much, just came to see Sister Liu.

  Liu Qingqing smiled and said: "Come to watch a play? Obviously not, come to pick me up and take me home? Doesn't seem like that's your obligation."

  "Uh, I'll go pick up Sister Liu and take her home." Xiang Tianliang led the donkey down the slope, thinking to himself that he was just about to head to her house anyway.

  "Really?" Liu Qingqing pulled Xiang Tianliang down to sit, her hand still on his knee. "Tianliang, tell sister, do you have a girlfriend now?"

  "No, no."

  "Short of money?"

  Toward the sky, he shook his head again.

  "Anything wrong at home?"

  Xiang Tianliang hastily asked: "Isn't it just to pick up Sister Liu and take her home?"

  "Really?"

  "Honestly."

  "Alright, sis will go and settle things, you wait for me in the car first." Liu Qingqing took out the car key and handed it to Xiang Tianliang.

  The first step was successful.

  Tian Liang arrived at the parking lot and found Liu Qingqing's car. He opened the door and sat down in the driver's seat without hesitation.

  He must take the initiative, otherwise he will be overwhelmed by Liu Qingqing's enthusiasm.

  Let her drink and let Tian Liang know her drinking capacity and nature. As long as she drinks seven or eight liang, she will be dizzy.

  Sorry, Master's wife, Xiang Tianliang said in his heart, who would have thought that your husband, my teacher, would treat me like this.
