After graduation, Yan Ranran's career steadily rose thanks to her own abilities, while her ex-boyfriend spent his days idly playing video games.

She had tried to persuade him to change, but her ex-boyfriend would always just give her a few perfunctory words and then continue doing what he was supposed to do.

And so she gave him chance after chance, and he lied to her and coaxed her time and time again.

Until one time they had a fight, she complained that he was not ambitious, while he suspected that she was dating some rich second-generation.

Upon hearing this, tears instantly streamed down her face. He doubted her about anything else, but he couldn't accept doubting this.

Who is she? She's a campus beauty, and during her four years of university, countless men pursued her, but she didn't accept any of them because she already had him.

Among those who pursued her, there were many who were a hundred or a thousand times better than him, but she still rejected them all for him.

But his question that day, "Are you dating that rich kid?" completely shattered the last vestige of her dignity.

It turns out that she did so much for him, sacrificed so much for him, yet in the end she still couldn't escape the fate of being suspected by him.

Thinking back on the four years we've been together, it seems like she's always been the one taking care of him, and she's the one who has to solve everything for him.

In other places, it's the boys who take care of the girls, but here she's the one who has to take care of the boys.

If she didn't choose him and instead chose to be with someone else, she believed that the other person would definitely cherish her.

But she didn't choose anyone else; instead, she devoted herself to being with him, even if it meant taking care of him.

Unfortunately, all her years of silent dedication have only earned her his suspicion.

When he said those words, no one could understand how much pain she felt at that moment. She was not only heartbroken, but also exhausted.

Her boyfriend's lack of ambition and idleness made her lose hope and see no future.

Although she loved him very much, she knew that she couldn't keep going like this for long.

At that moment, she realized how ridiculous and naive her thoughts were. In the past, she always thought that as long as she worked hard, she could change everything, but reality gave her a hard slap in the face.

Finally! She didn't know where she got the courage, but she said the words "break up".

When her boyfriend heard her say "let's break up," he wasn't sad; instead, he was furious and embarrassed, as if he had confirmed something.

"Oh! So you really have been seeing someone else all along. Now you're finally dropping the act, huh?"

To her utter surprise, her words not only failed to make him regret his actions, but instead confirmed his suspicions.

Given her love for him, if she had simply said she wanted to break up, and he had realized his mistake and apologized to her, things could have turned around.

But at that moment she felt it was unnecessary; she just gave a self-deprecating laugh, a laugh that was somewhat pathetic and lamentable.

Just as she was about to turn away, she couldn't help but say something to him.

"After I'm gone, you have to take good care of yourself, okay?"

"Get lost. I don't want your hypocrisy. Go find your rich man, your rich second-generation. Stop pretending here. Your insincerity disgusts me."

It turns out she disgusted him; it turns out everything she did for him was just pretense.

She ran back crying. He may never know how much she regretted her decision after she got back, but it was all too late.

Because of this, she even considered ending everything. She locked herself in her room and went on a hunger strike for three days, eventually fainting from hunger. Her family had to break down the door to take her to the hospital.

With the care of her family, she gradually recovered and began to see things in a more positive light.

She deleted everything related to him and decided to start a new life. She understood that it was impossible for her to love someone so deeply again in this lifetime.

Although I gave him my deepest love, we still couldn't be together in the end. Perhaps that's what regret is.

It took her a long time to slowly recover from this relationship and this incident, and her life began to get back on track.

But today, the person on stage, the very contestant who is performing, has once again pulled her back to that past she didn't want to face.

The wound, which was almost healed, was mercilessly torn open again, leaving a deep gash.

Listening to the contestant's melancholic singing on stage, she inexplicably felt a dull ache in her heart.

Suddenly she felt a salty taste on her lips. When she reached down to touch it, she realized that her tears had unknowingly flowed down to the corner of her mouth.

Just like the lyrics say, she didn't understand how the hands they were holding could just disappear.

How could two people who were in love with each other suddenly fall out of love? What caused all of this to happen?

If he had made even the slightest effort back then, even just a tiny bit, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

...

Backstage at the Masked Singer program, director Wang Fugui was also shocked as he watched the viewership ratings steadily rise.

After the three singers who advanced stepped down from the stage, the number of viewers in the live stream dropped rapidly, plummeting from four or five million to less than a million.

But now, this contestant named Grey Wolf, after singing on stage for only a minute or two, saw the number of viewers in the live stream skyrocket, quickly recovering to its peak for the entire episode.

That wasn't all; the number of viewers in the live stream was still rising. He was so engrossed in the singing that he didn't look at it for a while, and when he came to his senses and checked the number of viewers again, it had already surpassed ten million.
