Chapter 48: You must have had a lot of admirers in high school, right?

He Jiayu looked completely calm and blinked. "Reporter Wen admitted it to me personally."

"He told me that she had been with you openly and honestly for three years and was your real girlfriend."

The exact same words took on a completely different meaning when spoken by He Jiayu.

Her sincere expression was as if Wen Jinye, that arrogant ex-girlfriend, was dissatisfied with the status quo and had gone to provoke Fu Yanjing's beloved white moonlight.

And his ideal woman was so forgiving.

He Jiayu continued with a smile, "Last time, reporter Wen even drove your car around in front of his cousin. Xu Xiangbai begged you for so long but you wouldn't let him touch it, while reporter Wen can drive around so easily."

She frowned, feeling indignant on Xu Xiangbai's behalf, "A-Jing, you're really putting romance before friendship."

Wen Jin also had no time to participate in their mutual probing before reconciliation.

Hearing her mention that car, Wen Jin couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Her scalp tingled, and when she looked up, she met Fu Yanjing's meaningful gaze.

A cool, detached smile played on his lips. "So that's what happened."

"You don't know either?" He Jiayu asked, somewhat surprised, adopting a peacemaker's attitude. "Don't blame Reporter Wen. She might have been desperate and grasping at straws, perhaps because she really wanted to win you back."

Fu Yanjing seemed to have heard a joke, but the smile that shimmered in his eyes was devoid of warmth.

"It's good enough that she's not thinking about assassinating me."

After all, he would slap her if she kissed him.

He's such an ingrate.

But these mocking words sounded like an unconscious intimacy to He Jiayu.

He Jiayu felt like she couldn't breathe properly, and only her fingertips digging into her palm reminded her not to lose her graceful demeanor.

She gave an awkward laugh. "Really..."

Wen Jin has no intention of joining the drama of the "white moonlight" and the cannon fodder ex.

"I have other things to do at the TV station, so I won't bother you any longer."

But then, remembering Fu Yanjing's ambiguous attitude and glancing at Xu Xiangbai, who looked like he'd just stumbled upon a juicy tidbit, Wen Jin finally couldn't hold back and explained:

“Nothing happened between me and Mr. Fu last night. I just got trapped by an iris lock while taking him home.”

"As for those three years of affair..."

Wen Jin also looked up at Xu Xiangbai and said indifferently, "Didn't Mr. Xu already know this? It was just for fun."

After she finished speaking, she left calmly.

Xu Xiangbai was left standing there, mouth agape, completely bewildered.

"If you drool on the floor, you'd better clean it up for me."

He was pulled back to reality by Fu Yanjing's inscrutable voice.

Xu Xiangbai hadn't fully reacted yet, and followed Fu Yanjing back to the living room, "Brother Jing, your girlfriend in Hong Kong was actually Reporter Wen, why didn't you tell me?"

"Isn't she a native of Jiangbei? Why would she go to Gangcheng?"

Fu Yanjing had just recovered from his fever, and the fatigue in his body hadn't completely subsided. He sat back down on the sofa and said, "Go to school."

Xu Xiangbai has always been a busybody, and now he's full of questions, wanting to get to the bottom of things.

"Which high school did she attend in Jiangbei? Maybe you two have met before."

Fu Yanjing glanced at him and said, "You might as well just check their household registration."

Xu Xiangbai shut up.

But she couldn't hold back any longer, "Then the previous times you two met, you acted like you didn't know each other at all. Besides, when you were being harassed by reporters, you..."

At this point, Xu Xiangbai suddenly paused.

The one who was most arrogant in making things difficult for Wen Jinye was none other than He Jiayu, who was standing next to him.

He Jiayu had obviously thought of this as well.

She bit her lip. "Back then, I had no idea that reporter Wen was Ah Jing's ex-girlfriend."

"When did you find out?" Fu Yanjing asked directly, his deep, dark eyes revealing a sharp edge that made people feel pressured.

A hint of panic flashed across He Jiayu's eyes, but she quickly concealed it with her acting skills. "It was at the charity gala that reporter Wen stopped me and told me."

"She does have the leisure to confide in you."

A curt remark, leaving one unable to fathom its meaning.

He Jiayu forced a smile, feeling uncertain. "A-Jing...don't you believe me?"

Wen Jin and Xiao Yin have been extremely busy lately.

He's either during an interview or on his way to one.

Thanks to Wang Pangzi and Lin Zhiying, not only was the location of the interview remote, but the educational levels of the interviewees were also quite uneven.

Some people couldn't stop exclaiming "Holy crap!"; some grabbed Wen Jinye's hand and insisted she become their daughter-in-law; and some even started advertising their family's snack shop halfway through a conversation on camera...

By the end of the interview, Xiao Yin couldn't even manage a professional fake smile anymore.

When they knocked on the door of the last interviewee, the other person glanced at Xiao Yin, who had a strong smirk about her, and her face immediately darkened.

"What kind of attitude is that, young lady!"

The door was slammed shut with a deafening bang, even blowing Xiao Yin's bangs off.

Xiao Yin looked completely bewildered, like a meme, pointing her index finger at the tip of her nose as she looked at Wen Jinye:

"Me? He said I had a bad attitude?"

"Sister Jinye, I swear to God, did I say anything?"

Wen Jin was both amused and exasperated. She held up two fingers and gently touched the corner of Xiao Yin's lips. "A smile might make you feel better."

Xiao Yin only wants this broken world to be destroyed, "I was born not to like to laugh."

Wen Jin also said in a serious tone, "Then I'll take you to drink some Western medicine to regulate your body after get off work."

Xiao Yin asked in confusion, "Why?"

Wen Jin remained calm, "Because of the Western medicine."

Xiao Yin: ……

She crossed her arms and rubbed her arms, looking quite serious. "Sister Jinye, I was wondering why it felt colder today. Turns out you've learned to tell corny jokes."

However, after being worn down by work, a smile finally appeared on Xiao Yin's face.

Although the interview didn't start off well, it was eventually completed successfully.

With this, the interviews and outreach efforts came to an end.

The two felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders, and as they walked back with their cameras, even the wind felt sweet.

As soon as we got back to the city, Xiao Yin started complaining that she was hungry.

Carrying a camera is hard work, and Xiao Yin only has a chubby face, but she is not fat at all.

Not only do they stay up all night to maintain their nightlife, but they also occasionally indulge in special forces day trips, yet they are always full of energy during the day.

Wen Jin sometimes felt envious, wondering how someone could have such abundant Qi and blood.

But Xiao Yin actually envied her a lot.

Hearing Wen Jinye's praise, Xiao Yin reacted excitedly, "Sister Jinye, you have no idea how beautiful you are, and you have such a great figure, you can eat as much as you want and never gain weight."

It was during school dismissal time.

You can see boys and girls wearing Jiangbei No.1 Middle School uniforms from time to time on the road.

The scent of youth permeated the air. Xiao Yin pressed her face against the car window and spotted a boy poking a girl's back. She then quickly pretended to walk by, leaving the girl puzzled for a long time.

Their eyes met.

They joked, chased, and cursed each other; the air was filled with the excitement of young boys and girls.

Xiao Yin was hit by the pink bubbles, tilted her head to look at Wen Jinye, and couldn't help but sigh:

"Sister Jinye, you're so pretty, you must have had a lot of guys chasing after you in high school, right?"
