"And then what? How did you manage to live on two hundred yuan a month?"

Yu Jianing stopped stirring her coffee.

Thanks for the invitation! I'm already starting to get angry!

"Instant noodles, bread... that's enough for a month..."

"I bought a lot online back then..."

Xia You said with a bitter smile, "Back then... I hid in my room, holding instant noodles, and secretly watched them through the crack in the door..."

"Their food smells delicious... but I can't sit at the table..."

At this point, her eyes were already moist:

"At first, I kept telling myself that they were still angry with me, and that they would calm down soon..."

"Can……"

Youyou turned her head away, not wanting Jia Ning to see her like this:

"To be honest, when I overheard Hanting telling me that the reason they were angry wasn't because I left for three months, but because I betrayed the group, I was actually a little happy about it."

"Thinking that I didn't betray the group, and that the misunderstanding has been cleared up so we can reconcile..."

"but……"

She closed her eyes and smiled.

His smile was so heartbreaking...

Xiao Ning couldn't bear it, so she sat down next to her, hugged her tightly, and said nothing.

Xia You patted her hand to indicate that she was fine, then took out her phone and opened the playlist.

"Let me play you a song... I wrote it... but it wasn't written by me..."

Xiao Ning looked at the "Fallen Star" label on it, knew what she was talking about, and nodded gently.

A gentle intro played from the phone, but the singer ruined the feeling a bit.

"Every innocent face in front of the camera yesterday..."

"What kind of life will I encounter today...?"

"Will you and I still be able to recall the past as we did that summer..."

"Even if we're separated, there must be a time limit..."

As the music slowly ended, Xia You remained silent, as if she had unconsciously let go of something...

The two of them leaned against each other without making a sound.

But just then, the piercing sound of sirens shattered the tranquility.

Xia You looked out the window without realizing what was happening, and soon after, Zhang Chen was escorted out by the police.

"Hehe... I'm so tired... I need to see a doctor..."

"Hehe...I need to rest..."

"This... this..."

Before Youyou could finish speaking, Yu Jianing suddenly stood up and grabbed her hand:

"Little guy! Your manager's gone in! He'll never get out!"

"Come with my sister! We're betraying the group!"

The words she had heard not long ago deeply touched Youyou's heart.

Looking at Xiao Ning's bright and gentle smile, she subconsciously tightened her grip on her hand!

"Let's go!"

Xiao Ning smiled even more brightly and pulled her outside.

Passersby watched the two running around like idiots and shook their heads with a sigh.

It's so good to be young...

On the other side, Jia Lingxi stared into thought as she looked at the surveillance footage on her computer...

"Are there still people these days who can cause mental problems just by talking to someone?"

She said she didn't understand, but Yu Jianing didn't do anything to Zhang Chen except talk in the video.

"Why did you suddenly decide to recruit her into the grape team as an interrogator?"

The thought had barely crossed her mind when Lingxi extinguished it instantly.

My perception of Yu Jianing's danger level has increased by two stars...

"Ring ring..."

Her phone rang; it was Yu Jianing!

As soon as Jialingxi answered the phone, she heard someone on the other end panting and saying:

"Little one, help! I want to go back to my country! It's too dangerous here!"

"Uh...you're the one in danger!"

The little snake was exasperated: "There's less than a week left, just hang in there a little longer..."

"My mission is complete!"

(Translation: Xia You is mine!)

"I'll call Chengcheng right away!"

...

After hanging up the phone, the scumbag woman sent Tao a message saying "OK".

Then he turned around and looked at Youyou…

Well… she's completely forgotten about Morning Star. Go back and wait to die!

"Aren't you really going to say goodbye to them in person?"

“Hmm…” Xia You shook her head.

On the way to the airport, the scumbag woman explained everything to her, including the possibility that Manager Zhang might be manipulating them.

Although Youyou was momentarily dazed, she still didn't let go of Xiaoning's hand.

The truth will come out sooner or later, but I no longer have the strength to defend myself.

Because when they said, "Who knows if this is you? They're afraid they won't be able to make it in the outside world, so they're keeping a backup plan..."

This friendship, which she managed to salvage through her own efforts, has come to an end…

"Let's not say goodbye in person, I don't want to be sad anymore..."

Xia You smiled as she looked at Xiao Ning, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease!

Yu Jianing patted her head: "Alright, don't think about the past anymore. Follow me, and I guarantee you'll live the high life!"

Jelly Ball: "Little Lemon... with your Pixiu personality... following you around, I'm afraid I'll be starving twice a day..."

"???"

...

Back home, Wang Tao was sleeping soundly…

But the next second, he was woken up by a message from Yu Jianing!

Upon hearing the special notification sound he had set, the wronged agent sat up abruptly!

While he was still thinking, "Who am I? Where am I?"—this pointless question—…

The "OK" message on the screen instantly snapped him out of his daze!

"What? It's OK?! Did you get Xia You?!"

Wang Tao quickly sent a message to Xiao Ning, who replied with a voice message soon after.

"Hello, Brother Tao... I'm Xia You..."

This weak tone, comparable to Lianyin's, is definitely Xia You's own voice!

The agent, so excited he almost fell off the bed, coughed several times, cleared his throat, and replied very gently:

"Hello Xia You, I am Wang Tao, the top agent of Tianxing and Chenxing. Don't worry about those negative news stories about you overseas, I'll take care of them for you."

"By the way, you might be unfamiliar with the place and the people since you're new to China. I'll arrange a variety show for you. It's a slow-paced show, which is perfect for you. Plus, all the directors are people I know, so you don't have to worry about being bullied!"

"I'll have Chenxing accompany you in the first episode so you can get used to it. If it doesn't work out, I'll give you other resources..."

Wang Tao rambled on and on, his voice messages so rambling that it made you not want to click on them.

About five minutes later, another very long voice message came back!

When I opened it, it was filled with Yu Jianing's laughter for 50 seconds!

The remaining ten seconds are...

"Brother Tao, have you taken the wrong medicine? Your voice is so sickeningly sweet! Hahaha!"

The wronged agent: "..."

There's a reason you're called a brat!
