Both people on the other end of the phone were stunned.

Rong Hang clenched his fists tightly, his heart pounding.

Jiang Yixing was stunned; Rong Hang's deep voice seemed to still echo in his ears.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Jiang Yixing replied, "No."

"Um…"

Rong Hang felt a surge of heat rising within him, and a faint blush appeared on his fair face.

Jiang Yixing suddenly sensed a different emotion, which gently exploded in her heart, like a spring breeze or fireworks in winter.

She realized that this was Rong Hang's emotion.

Jiang Yixing hasn't mastered the secret yet. Aside from when she tries to connect with the other person through her heart, she can occasionally sense them inexplicably like this.

For a moment, Jiang Yixing couldn't tell whose heart was pounding wildly. She was a little confused. "Then...then I'll hang up now."

"Ah... um..." Rong Hang also began to speak incoherently, and the two of them ended their conversation in a daze.

Rong Hang sat on the rooftop, took a few deep breaths, and tried to cover up his earlier loss of composure.

When he came downstairs, four pairs of eyes suddenly turned to look at him. Although Rongyuan was discreet, he was very concerned about his younger brother's love life.

Rong Hang maintained a cool demeanor, but the slightly upturned corners of his eyes betrayed him.

He poured himself a glass of water and went back to his room under the watchful eyes of several people.

Jin Yuzhen's voice came from behind, "It seems the talks went well; Xiao Hang seems quite happy."

Rong Hang touched his expressionless face.

Jin Yuzhen sighed again, "Rong Hang is really good-looking. Look, Yuan'er and he look quite alike, but Xiao Hang is even more beautiful. It's a pity he's not an actor."

actor…

The word swirled in Rong Hang's mind. Wasn't Jiang Yixing an actor now?

Meanwhile, Jiang Yixing, after hanging up the phone, inexplicably burst out laughing.

Jiang Yixing smiled, seemingly able to imagine Rong Hang's expression just now—it must have been blank.

Thinking of Rong Hang's seemingly expressive eyes, thin red lips, and straight nose, Jiang Yixing patted her own face.

You must not fall for the allure of good looks.

The statement was finally released at the exact hour of noon. Rong Hang saw the news immediately and a smile appeared on his lips.

He Mang and Jiang Yixing both used their own Weibo accounts. Jiang Yixing's Weibo account was newly created, and this was her second Weibo post, aside from the one she previously shared of Fobana's video.

The two people's Weibo posts were clearly coordinated, as the content was identical:

"During my student days, I was in a relationship for a while. This encounter with you was accidental, and there is no relationship as speculated online. I hope everyone can respect our profession and trust our professional ethics."

A period of time… Rong Hang lowered his eyes, how long was that?

Will Jiang Yixing still like him?

Love... such a cheesy word, but when associated with Jiang Yixing's name, it is exceptionally heartwarming.

The statements from both sides caused a huge uproar.

"So...you really were together?"

"Oh my god, a college romance! Could it be my first love?!"

"I'm dizzy, I bumped my head."

"Who isn't! I'm banging my head against the wall!"

The power of the internet is immense; netizens somehow managed to find old photos of He Mang and Jiang Yixing.

The photo appears to be taken at a sports meet. Jiang Yixing is wearing a white short skirt and holding colorful flowers, dressed as a cheerleader. He Mang is standing next to her, with short hair at the time. He looks clean and refreshing, except for two black earrings that show a hint of rebellion.

He Mang was more than a head taller than Jiang Yixing. He put his arm around Jiang Yixing's shoulder, and Jiang Yixing made a "V" sign with his hand next to his face.

Both of them were smiling brightly, their faces full of collagen. With the sunlight shining down, everyone was beaming with joy, and the air was filled with youthful energy.

Jiang Yixing herself was deeply moved when she saw the photo, even though it seemed like it happened only a few years ago. But for her, it felt like it happened hundreds of years ago.

Jiang Yixing felt somewhat unfamiliar with herself from many years ago. Was this what she looked like?

At the time, I only remember that I wasn't very confident, especially during the period when I was dating He Mang, I was particularly anxious and insecure.

Jiang Yixing smiled, her eyes showing a sense of relief towards the past. She was still quite beautiful...

When Rong Hang saw this photo, he was stunned. How old was Jiang Yixing when he first met him?

He had never seen Jiang Yixing in the photos, and thought he knew her well enough.

But he had never seen Jiang Yixing standing with other men, laughing so happily.
